I woke up groggily in Connor's bed. Last night I had almost kissed Connor's mom Sarah. Almost being the key word here. Almost. Because I stopped myself before anything could happen. Even though I really wanted to. Like REALLY wanted to. I just couldn't. Because it would've been in Connor's body and not my own. Such a shame really, because I found her really attractive.
I exited Connor's room and walked towards the living room. Connor's mom Sarah was sitting on the couch drinking a cup of coffee. She looked up at me when I entered.
"Morning sweetie," she said, "you feeling better?"
I grumbled out a yeah and continued my pace towards the kitchen.
"Well surely not if you're this zombified," she said as she followed me into the kitchen, "how about you sit down and I'll cook you up some breakfast."
I sat down without a word. She places her coffee cup on the counter and began looking in the refrigerator.
"Hmmm nothing good in here," she said, "might have to go grocery shopping soon."
She then looks in the cabinets and pulled out a box of oatmeal.
"Oatmeal sound okay to you?" she asked.
I nodded. Too focused on her ass to say anything. Why was she wearing something like that? The fabric was tight against her body, it almost looked like she wasn't wearing panties. Oh how I wished to squeeze those cheeks and bury my face in them.
She pours the oatmeal into a small pot and added milk to the mix. Then placed it on the stove afterwards and stirred.
"So can I ask why you tried to force yourself on me last night?" she asked without facing me.
The guilt was really eating at me.
"I know what I did was wrong and I'm sorry for it!" I said.
"I know you're sorry," Sarah said, "I just want to know WHY."
I stumble for words.
"I wasn't in my right mind yesterday," I said.
"Right mind uh huh," she said as she poured the oatmeal into a bowl.
Sarah then places it before me and leans against the counter.
"We've been through this talk multiple times now sweetie," she said.
What...wait?
"I...don't understand." I said, "What do you mean by multiple times now?"
"We have had this talk multiple times now," she stated, "you need to understand that WE DO NOT HAVE THAT SORT OF RELATIONSHIP."
"But I seriously don't understand," I said in confusion, "what do you mean by that?"
"You've been trying to force yourself on me for a few months now," she said, "every time you get home from school practically."
"At first I thought I chalked it to you being a teenager and your hormones were on the rampage." she stated, "But then it kept happening. You even tried to sleep with me in my bed."
"I wonder if he was just taking his sexual frustrations out on my mom because he couldn't with his mom," I thought, "Which is totally fucked up."
I got up and wrapped her in a hug. A tight hug. I couldn't take it anymore. It's sick of him to even think that way about his mother or even try to do stuff like that.
She deserves the truth.
"Can I tell you something," I asked without letting go of her.
Her arms felt warm and comforting. Like my own mother's arms when she gives me hugs.
"Sure sweetie," she said softly.
"I'm not Connor," I said.
She looks at me in confusion.
"What do you mean you're not Connor sweetie?" Sarah asked.
"I'm Daniel Greystone," I said, "Yesterday me and your son switched bodies on accident."
"Is this some sort of joke?" she asked getting upset.
I let go and stepped back.
"It's the truth!" I said, "Plus your son has been picking on me since freshman year."
"Connor...that sort of stuff isn't real!" she said.
"I'm not Connor!" I said, "I'm Daniel! Please you have to believe me!"
She rushes past and bolted down the hallway. I then heard her door slam a few seconds later.
I sighed and sat back down at the table. The oatmeal she made for me was delicious. A few minutes later there was a knock on the front door. I get up and went to answer it. When I opened the door, two men in white uniforms stood on the front porch.
"You Connor White?" asked the guy on my left.
"What's the meaning of this?" I asked, "Who are you?"
From the hallway, Sarah looked at me terrified. Her cellphone held against her ear. Tears running down her face.
"I'm so sorry sweetie," she said, "but I'm at my wits end right now. Please go with these nice gentlemen okay."
One of them grabbed my arm and very firmly started walking me outside. I struggled against them.
"Just calm down son!" said one of the men in white, "We're just going to have you checked out."
"Please Connor just calm down!" Sarah said from the front door."
"I'm not Connor!" I protested," I'm Daniel! Daniel Greystone! All of this was a big misunderstanding."
"Give him the shot!" said the guy from inside the van.
I felt the jab of a needle enter my arm and I began to feel woozy.
I soon fainted.
---------------------------------------
Sarah looked tearfully as the two men placed her son into the back of a van.
"We'll have him checked out ma'am" said one of the men, "I'm surprised you didn't call us sooner!"
"Will he be okay?" Sarah asked.
"He'll be fine ma'am." the man said, "We're just going to run some tests on him is all."
The man gets into the driver's seat and pulls away from her property.
"What if...he was right?" Sarah thought, "Who was this Zoey and that other woman he called mom?"
She remembered that he said that his name was Daniel Greystone. Greystone was the name of the boy Connor talked about to his friends when they came over. She checked his name in the school registry and found Daniel's home phone number. She entered the number into her phone and waited for it to connect.
---------------------------------------------
Cynthia was in the middle of folding laundry when her phone rang. She checked the caller ID and found it was from someone named Sarah White. Cynthia didn't know a Sarah. On a whim, she accepted the call and held her phone to her ear.
"Hello?" she asked.
"Hi...is this Daniel's mom?" the woman asked.
"This is her sneaking," Cynthia said, "and who are you?"
"Oh I'm Connor's mom Sarah," Sarah said.
"Can I ask what the meaning of this call was Sarah?" Cynthia then asked, "I was in the middle of folding laundry."
Cynthia heard the woman sniffle.
"Can we...meet up to talk in person?" Sarah asked, "Please there's something I want to ask you."
Cynthia sighed.
"You know that diner by sixth and second?" Cynthia asked.
"Oh...you mean Barley's" Sarah said, "Yeah I know the place."
"Meet me there in half an hour," Cynthia said and ended the call.
She then grabbed her car keys and exited her house. Connor was still sound asleep on her bed. Tuckered out from the morning session they had after Zoey went to school. Her son was an amazing lover. But it was wrong. He was her son.
Maybe a talk with that fucker's mom will nip this problem in the bud before anything worse could happen. It also gave her time to think about what the best course of action was for the situation she found herself in with her son Daniel.
------------------------------------
Sarah sat at a booth by the far wall. Waiting for Cynthia to arrive. She checked her cellphone.
Suddenly a dark haired woman enters the diner and locks around. Sarah sensing that it was Cynthia, waved at her.
"Over here!" she called out.
Cynthia walked over to Sarah's booth and sat across from her.
"So what did you want to talk about?" Cynthia asked.
Sarah noticed that up close, Cynthia was a very beautiful woman. So was she to be honest. But Cynthia was something else entirely. Many eyes turned to face the two women. Most of them being immature men.
"Oh...sorry," Sarah said, "it's hard to say really."
"I also wanted to talk to you too." Cynthia stated, "Your son has been bullying mine since freshman year."
"That's what Connor was telling me
this morning," Sarah said.
She then sniffled again
"It was the reason why I wanted to talk to you," Sarah said, "Connor...said something strange to me."
"Like what?" Cynthia asked.
"He...claims that he was your son Daniel Greystone." Sarah said, "That he and my son Connor accidentally switched bodies yesterday."
Cynthia lets out a small chuckle.
"I'm sorry...what?" Cynthia asked.
"Believe me I know how ridiculous this is too." Sarah said, "But humor me okay?"
"Sure," Cynthia said.
"Has...your son been acting strangely toward you since yesterday?" Sarah asked.
"Define strange," Cynthia asked.
"Doing something that he normally wouldn't do?" Sarah said, "For instance...forgetting what his favorite food was or acting inappropriate around you?"
Cynthia thought back to last night. Daniel had kissed and fucked her last night. Did that count as strange? Normally her son was meek and standoffish. The type of boy who screams "Yes! I'm weak and pathetic! Bully me!"
Cynthia thought for a moment.
"Does...sex count as strange? she then whispered, "Because Daniel asked if he..."
"Could sleep in your room?" Sarah finished for her, "Did he try to kiss you or anything else?"
Cynthia blushes.
"So...it was true then." Sarah said, "To think...I had him committed to a mental health hospital."
"You did what?" Cynthia asked.
