When They Collide

Slowing It Down By A Day

Chiwa's POV
We all follow Sagi to the back of the store, to a little, sectioned off room. Sort of like an office. The manager's office. I was the first one to enter. Next is Kitsune, Vegeta and Lea. We all hover around the desk, which held a name plate upon it. It read: Takuto. The chair turned around, showing a man with that seemed to be the age of 30 years old. Or so I'd say. "Hello, what can I be assistance of?" the thirty year old asks. I, of course, cut to the point. "Listen, I don't have time to play around. I bought rose petals from your store, it switched me and my friend's bodies and we want back." I say as I reach over the desk and grab ahold of his collar. "Listen," he says swaying my hand off of him. "I understand you're upset, so I'll help. But you must know, the only way you two can switch back is if you and your lover do the opposite of what was done before the switching took place." We all stare at him dumbfounded. Lea scratches his head, Vegeta grunts and turn his head to the side whilst crossing his arms, Kitsune and I just exchange glances with each other. We then turn back to looks at Takuto. "We don't have time for games, spit it out already!" Kitsune exclaims. Yup, she's definitely been with Vegeta for too long. Takuto sighs. "Okay, look, this is what I feel from you all. One couple has been ready to proceed to the next step, while one couple has been slowly holding back, being afraid." I look over to Lea behind me. He halfway shows a sullen grin. I suddenly understand what the old guy was talking about. Lea and I had been the couple that has been taking our approach last night slow. So in other words...to say the opposite...we have to go through with it. Wait, but how!?? Me in Kitsune's body with Lea or Kitsune in my body with Lea??! I don't know if I like either way. I turn my attention back to Takuto. "How on earth would we be able to complete that??" I exclaim. "Simple." he starts. "The body must do the fulfilling of the wish." he says. So in other words...Kitsune has to take my place in Lea's arms and I have to in Vegeta's. This is NOT gonna workout well. "The catch is, you have to do it at the same moment. The slow pair must speed up the process and the fast one's must slow it down." Okay, now he's not making any sense. "You know what? We got it! If we need any more words to put us asleep, we'll come back." I say as I turn around to leave while the gang follows. A moment later, we leave the mall and return to lovely abode. I make my way to the rooms and sprinkle rose petals on my bed AND Kitsune and Vegeta's bed. The thought of me having to be almost held by Vegeta scares me. One, it's Vegeta. Two, I love Lea. Three, most of all, Kitsune will kill me. But it's okay because all I have to do is lay there. On Kitsune's side, she'll be the one to actually be hugging my Lea. Hmph. I walk out of the room and back into the living room. Everyone's on the couch. "Okay, so my guess is, that we have to do this at the exact same time that we did this last night. It was getting late so, time shouldn't be a problem. I take my phone from the table and begin to dial a number. "Who are you calling?" Lea asks. "The pizza guy. I bet no one's in the mood to actually make anything, so, I'm ordering delivery." I say. Moments later, the pizza guy arrived with two boxes of medium pepperoni pizzas. One box for Kitsune and Vegeta and one for Lea and I. We sit around the table and all dig in. I eat two slices in all, Lea eats four. Same with Kitsune and Vegeta. Ah, the growing boys. I don't know what to do a whole day waiting for tonight. It sure is taking a while. I really wished it went by faster.
