Swap Week: Day 5 and Football Game

Swap Week:  Day 5 and Football Game
by RogerGirl

  Nicole woke up the next morning excited for her last day of school.  She had a busy day and was looking forward to the big football game later in the evening.  She went to the bathroom and went through her daily routine.  She put on her underwear a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.  She put on a pair of socks and her white tennis shoes then grabbed her bags, ate a quick breakfast, and drove to school.  She got to school and went to class.  Jennifer was there early today, which was odd since Nicole usually got there before her.  Nicole sat down beside her and noticed she was putting some finishing touches on the outfit they made.  

"Hey girl," Nicole said, "you're here early."

"Hi," Jennifer said, "I got an idea for our outfit and I wanted to make sure I was able to finish it before class started."

  Jennifer held up the skirt and showed Nicole the design she'd put on it.  Nicole was impressed and complimented her on her creativity.  When class started the teacher told them to have one partner change into their outfit while the other partner explained what they made.  Since Jennifer had designed most of the outfit, they decided to have Nicole be the model.  She went to the locker room and put on the skirt and blouse and a pair of heels that she brought from home.  When she returned to class she noticed that their outfit looked a lot better than some of the others and was glad that her partner had experience making costumes for theater.  She sat down next to Jennifer and they waited for their turn.  When their turn came Nicole and Jennifer came to the front of the class.  While Jennifer explained their outfit, Nicole did a few poses.  Everyone told them how good they did and the teacher told them that they did better than some of the students in her regular classes.  

  After class Nicole said goodbye to Jennifer and went to her theater class.  She changed into her Sandy costume and went to the theater to perform the play for the teacher and a small group of students who had an open period.  She had been practicing singing in her female voice and sounded pretty good singing the songs.  She was enjoying performing in the play and was glad that she was able to remember all of her lines.  Toward the end of the play they took a short break for her to change into her sexy Sandy costume.  She came out and got cheers when she delivered the "tell me about it stud" line and sang "You're the One that I Want."  During the kiss at the end they got a lot of cheers from the audience.  After the play the Nicole and the rest of the cast took a bow as the audience gave them a standing ovation.  The theater teacher complimented everyone on their performances and told Nicole that she should try acting after Swap Week was over.  Nicole told him that she had a lot of fun in the class and that she'd think it over.  They would be holding auditions for Guys and Dolls next quarter and Nicole thought to herself that it might be fun playing a gangster role when she was a boy again.  

  Nicole changed out of her costume and back into the outfit she had modeled for fashion design class then hurried to the locker room to change back into her normal clothes.  She went to the rest of her classes and presented her final projects.  In cooking she made a cake with Jennifer and in art she presented several drawings and paintings she had done throughout the class.  In photography she presented a series of photographs she had taken and developed of Jennifer modeling and posing in different outfits.  All of her teachers told her she did very well and that she should think about taking the real classes after Swap Week was over.  When she returned to being Nick he would go on to develop a strong interest in photography and eventually get a job taking photographs for a surfing and skateboarding magazine during college.  

  At lunch Nicole and Jennifer changed into Supergirl and Wonder Woman costumes and hosted a superhero themed rally for the football teams.  After a couple short skits, they introduced the football team and Nicole was surprised at how good Nathan looked when she saw him in his uniform for the first time.  Nathan, who was the captain of his team, talked for a while, then the other team was introduced and their team captain talked.  After the rally Nicole and Jennifer briefly talked to Nathan and Kyle before they had to change and go to practice.  After cheer practice they stopped by the field to watch the football team practice for a while, then they went to the mall to pick up their dresses and take them home.  When they got to the store they went to dressing rooms to try on their dresses and made sure they fit right.  Nicole put on the dress and loved how sexy she looked in it.  She did a few poses in front of the mirror and felt like a Bond girl.  She couldn't wait for tomorrow so she could dance with Nathan in her new dress.  They paid for the dresses then took them to Jennifer's house since they would all be meeting there before the dance.

  They drove into Jennifer's neighborhood and over to her house which was at the end of a long cul-de-sac.  Both of her parents were at work, but Brandon was outside skateboarding.  They pulled into the driveway and Jennifer took the dresses inside while Nicole waited outside.  Brandon reminded her of a young Nick with his discomfort hanging out with his sister, his long messy hair, and his interest in skateboarding.  Nicole got out of the car and Brandon rode over to her.  Nicole thought to herself that she was glad she was wearing jeans.  Brandon approached her hesitantly.

"Hi, Nicole," he said nervously, "you look pretty today."

"Thank you, Brandon," she said.

"Would you like a soda," Brandon asked opening a fridge in the garage.

"Yes, thank you," Nicole said.

  Brandon brought a soda for each of them and they sat on a couch in the garage drinking them.  Brandon knew Nicole was a boy, but he'd only seen her as Nicole and still had a little crush on her.  As they sat drinking their sodas and waiting for Jennifer, Brandon decided to ask her a question.

"Um, Nicole," he stammered, "can I ask you something?"

"Sure," she said.

"Does it feel weird being a girl?"

"It did at first," she said, "but when I began to think of myself as Nicole instead of a boy dressed as a girl it got easier."

"Do you like being a girl?" he asked, "You make a good girl."

"It's been a fun experience," she said laughing, "but I'm looking forward to being a boy again and getting back to skateboarding and surfing.  Being a girl is a lot of work."

"You skate?" Brandon asked surprised.

"Yes," she said, "not as Nicole, but in my normal life as Nick."

"Can you teach me some tricks sometime, when you're Nick again?"

"Sure," she said.

"I miss hanging out with Jensen," Brandon said, "whenever he becomes Jennifer he becomes really girly and we never hang out."

"I know how you feel," Nicole said, "I felt the same way growing up with an older sister.  Luckily for you though, you only have a sister one week a year."

They both laughed and drank some of their sodas.  

"I'm kind of looking forward to starting high school next year so I can see what Swap Week is all about," Brandon said, "Do you think I'll make a good girl?"

  Nicole looked him over.  He had long hair and soft feminine features and since he was wearing shorts she could see that he had pretty nice legs and not much body hair.  

"It might take a little work," she said, "but I think we can get you looking like a pretty cute teenage girl."

"Thanks," he said, "I think it might be fun getting to hang out with Jennifer next year and finding out what it's like to be sisters."

They went back to drinking their sodas when Jennifer came in.  

"Sorry I took so long," she said jokingly, "I hope my brother wasn't being a pest."

"No it's fine," Nicole said, "he's a pretty cool kid."

  They said goodbye to Brandon and drove back to school.  They stopped by the auditorium to put the final touches on the room for the dance, then they grabbed their cheer uniforms and went to the locker room to change.  They met the rest of the squad in the gym for one last meeting and for a team photo for the Swap Week section in the yearbook then gathered to go to the field.  Nicole looked in the stands and saw her parents, sister, and her sister's new boyfriend, but Jennifer's family hadn't arrived yet.  They went to the front of the bleachers to set up their stuff and watched the teams practicing on the field.  They waved to their boyfriends who waved back, but couldn't come over and talk to them since they had to warm up for the game.  Nicole looked up at the stands again and saw her Uncle Steve walking through the row of people to sit with the rest of her family.  Uncle Steve was her mom's younger brother who was also the one who suggested that the family move back to Sutter's Valley and helped her dad get his new job.  He had no family of his own and was often out of town on business, but he had just gotten back from a business trip and wanted to see how his only nephew was handling his first Swap Week.  He remembered how fun it was having an older brother when his older sister first participated in Swap Week, then how strange it felt switching places as brother and sister when he started high school, and finally spending time as sisters in his senior year.  Nicole waved to him and he waved back.  

  Soon after they cleared the field and the cheerleaders went to the field to get the crowd pumped up.  They then began announcing the seniors and Nicole and Nathan shared a short kiss when he came onto the field.  After introducing the seniors the rest of the players came onto the field and the cheerleaders ran back to their spot in front of the bleachers.  As they came to the bleachers Nicole noticed Jennifer's family had gotten to the game and had sat next to her family in the bleachers.  Nicole and the rest of the squad cheered when Nathan threw a long pass for a touchdown early in the game and when Kyle ran a pass in later in the quarter.  At halftime Nathan and Kyle's team led by a field goal and both teams ran back to their locker rooms.  The cheerleaders did a quick cheer then the marching band performed on the field.  

  After the band's performance they announced the Swap Week dance king and queen nominees.  Nicole smiled when her name was called and she walked with her dad down the field as everyone cheered.  She also smiled when Jennifer was called after her and walked with her dad down the field and they stood next to each other before the crowd.  After the queen nominees were announced they called the names of the boys who were nominated for king.  Nathan and Kyle walked out with their moms and stood on the other side of the field with the other boys nominated for king.  After the introductions Nathan introduced his mom to Nicole and her dad and pointed to his dad who waved from the sidelines.  Nicole smiled when Nathan's mom told her she was happy to see her son had found such a pretty girlfriend.  Nicole looked over and saw Kyle was also introducing his mom to Jennifer and Jennifer's dad.  They all agreed to meet after the game to talk some more and meet the rest of each other's families.  

  Everyone then cleared the field and the second half of the game began.  In the third quarter, the other team tied the game and eventually led by a field goal at the end of the quarter.  In the final minutes of the fourth quarter, however, Nathan ran the ball in for a touchdown and won the game by 4 points.  The teams shook hands in the middle of the field then the players went to the locker room while everyone cheered.  The cheerleaders led everyone in a cheer then gathered their things and met with their families.  Some of the football players came back after gathering with their teams in the locker room and Nathan and Kyle gathered with Nicole and Jennifer and all of their families.  Everybody took turns introducing each other to those they had not yet met and congratulating everyone on well they did.  Nathan had an older brother, who looked a lot like Nathan and Nathan's dad, but Kyle didn't have any siblings.  Uncle Steve, who owned a limousine business, told Nicole that he had a limo for her and her friends to use for the dance tomorrow.  Nicole hugged her uncle and thanked him.  He told her that she was doing well and showed her a picture he had brought of himself as Stephanie during Swap Week posing with Nicole's mom, who was dressed as John.  He told her how odd it was when they switched bedrooms during two of their Swap Weeks.  They all took turns posing for pictures like they did the night before then Nicole, Jennifer, Nathan, and Kyle went to the locker rooms to shower and change so they could go out to dinner.

  They joined their families when they were all ready and went to a pizza restaurant for a quick dinner.  During dinner all the parents, Uncle Steve, and Nathan's older brother, Danny, shared some of their Swap Week experiences and those who had brought pictures passed their pictures around the table.  They asked Nathan if he would miss Swap Week, since he was the only senior in the group, and he told them that while he enjoyed being one of the boys, he missed his long hair and being a girl.  They laughed when he said he wasn't looking forward to the awkward short haired period when he first went back to being Natalie.  He did admit he would miss how easy some things were living as a boy, like not having to worry about putting on makeup and being able to pee standing up.  This also got some laughs.  Nathan's dad and brother said they would miss having another boy around the house, while his mom said she was glad she wouldn't be the only girl in the house soon and how she missed the years when Danny was still in high school and would become Danielle during Swap Week.  This got more laughs from the group.  After they finished eating they all said their goodbyes and planned to meet tomorrow afternoon for a pool party and barbecue at Jennifer's family's house where they would also get ready for the dance.  Nicole would go into work in the morning for her final day of work as a girl, then meet everyone at Jennifer's after her shift was over.

  When they got home they said goodnight to each other and Nicole went to her room and got ready for bed.  She put on a tank top and a pair of sweats and checked her Facebook.  She uploaded her new photos and posted a new profile picture.  She thought about how tomorrow would be her last day as Nicole until next year and how much fun she was planning to have.  She thought about going back to being a boy the next day, but decided to continue to think of herself as a girl until then.  She logged off and climbed into bed.
