Kurt walked across the hallway and went to open his locker with a loud screech that rang through his ears. He could hear fat raindrops dropping outside of the school onto the pavement with audible plops. He took a deep breath and tried to search for what he was looking for. He felt terrible. He usually was never ill but this time, he felt the worst he had ever felt in his life physically. He didn't know it was possible to feel this ill. He couldn't even understand how any of this had happened. One minute he was in class, laughing a chatting with Rachel and Mercedes and then the next minute, he felt like this. He could hear voices shouting at him but he allowed the high pitched squeals to get washed away out of his thoughts as he focused on what was inside his locker. He took deep breaths as he tried to stop his pounding heart from beating so fast. Everything was a blur. Voices were screeching in his ear, he couldn't control the awful, sickly feeling inside his stomach and he felt extremely dizzy. He really needed his boyfriend, but Blaine apparently had some sort of important meeting with Tina that was so urgent. Maybe if he went to where Blaine and Tina were, he could tell Blaine that he didn't feel well and Blaine would help him and leave their meeting for another day.
"Kurt? You look awful!" He heard a voice exclaim in shock but he had no energy to find the owner of the voice. He assumed it was Rachel or Mercedes. He nodded and took deep breaths. "Kurt, where are you going? You look like you're about to collapse!" Kurt suddenly realised it was Tina who was talking to him. He tried to open his mouth to speak, to ask her where Blaine was but only a muffled groan came out. "Blaine's sick too! Maybe he caught the bug off you?" Kurt just shook his head, wanting her to know that he had only just felt this sudden sickness. Tina was annoying him; she always annoyed him with her little pet names for Blaine and the way she would practically attach onto his side. It was almost like she was in love with Blaine. Maybe she was; Kurt didn't care because Blaine was his and Tina would never have him. He felt her hands grasp onto his shoulders and she directed him towards a classroom that he assumed Blaine was in. He allowed her to direct him until eventually he saw Blaine sat down at a desk, his head against the table.
"Blaine, are you okay?" Kurt murmured softly, barely loud enough for Blaine to hear. Blaine slowly lifted his head off from the table to look directly at Kurt. He looked dreadful. There were dark circles under his eyes and his tanned skin was so much paler than normal. His slicked back curls were beginning to break free and point out in random directions.
"Kurt, are you okay?" Blaine croaked as he took a sip of water from a bottle that stood on his table. Kurt just shook his head and sat down next to him.
"I feel really sick. Like, really sick." Kurt replied, taking Blaine's bottle from his hands and taking a sip for himself. He could feel his head beginning to pound harder than before.
"We need to go home and sleep. Tina, could you cover for us? We're just gonna leave." Tina smiled and nodded happily before resting a hand on Blaine's shoulder.
"Anything for you Blainey." She spoke sweetly causing Kurt to cringe. Blaine mouthed a 'thank you' to her before she walked away. They slowly stood up in unison and Blaine took his phone from out of his pocket. He grabbed Kurt's hand, trying to stay stood up steadily. He typed in his Father's number and allowed the beeping of the phone to happen before putting the phone up to his ear.
"Hey Dad, could you please come and pick me and Kurt up from school? We're not very well. Kurt's dad won't be home until later so could Kurt crash at ours please?... No we won't have s-... yes Dad. Okay thank you, bye." He hung up and turned to face an awful looking Kurt. His face was practically white and his hair had completely flopped onto his forehead. "My Dad will be here soon." He gave Kurt's hand a reassuring squeeze.
"Maybe it was something we ate at that dodgy restaurant yesterday?" Blaine nodded his head in agreement, feeling like he had no physical ability to speak. They kept their hands tightly together as they waited for the call from Blaine's Father to tell them that he was here. They managed to make out a few 'I love you's' to each other but that was all. Once they had gotten the call from Mr Anderson, that he was here to collect them, they waited a few minutes to make sure no teachers were stood in the hallway and then they slowly made their way to Mr Anderson's car. They had to keep their hands tightly together to stop themselves from falling over or collapsing. Kurt really wished that he would feel better tomorrow because he didn't know how long he could be like this. Mr Anderson greeted them with a stern look, examining the two of them.
"You look dreadful you two." The boys nodded their heads in unison. The drive home was silent. Kurt and Blaine had no energy to speak so Mr Anderson felt like it was pointless trying to make conversation. He kept glancing over his shoulder to check that the boys were still breathing and not being sick. He sighed deeply with concern and once they arrived home, he felt no need to tell Kurt to sleep in the spare bedroom because they both looked so dreadful, he knew they would not be doing anything inappropriate. He made sure the boys got into Blaine's bed okay and once they were both cuddled underneath the duvet covers, he whispered a simple "I hope you will both be okay" before leaving them alone.
Kurt brought the duvet covers up to his chin to try and create more warmth for him and Blaine. They were both on their sides, facing each other, tightly together. Kurt liked how he and Blaine slotted together perfectly like a puzzle piece and how they breathed in time with each other. When Kurt breathed in, Blaine breathed out and they breathed peacefully in unison.
"I love you." Blaine whispered softly before placing a kiss on his boyfriend's nose. Kurt smiled sweetly. No matter how rotten and ill he felt, Blaine could always make him smile.
"I love you too. But I think we should go to sleep now before I throw up." Blaine nodded his head slightly in agreement and they allowed their tiredness to overtake them.
Kurt was the first to wake. It was still dark and he assumed it was probably around ten o clock. He smiled even though his smile couldn't be seen in the pitch black darkness. He brushed his hand down Blaine's chest and hovered his hand over the bulge on his boyfriend's pants. The pants were a lot tighter than Kurt remembered and his were a lot more loose than he remembered, but he brushed aside that thought and rolled onto his back to stare around at the darkness. He felt a lot better than before and was able to take clear deep breaths without coughing or feeling like he was about to throw up. He smiled at how quickly he had recovered and he ran his fingers through his hair... wait... they were curls. Slightly gelled curls. This worried Kurt and he let out a muffled groan in anger that was a lot lower than usual. He gasped in shock, not even knowing he could release such a low sound. After a few minutes, his boyfriend began to slowly wake. He shuffled closer to Kurt and let out a sigh of happiness.
"Morning sunshine." A high pitched, sound came out from Blaine causing them both the gasp in shock.
"What the hell w-" Kurt began but then suddenly realised that his voice was identical to Blaine's normal voice. "Oh my god no." He muttered under his breath in horror. He reached over to the other side of the bed to quickly switch the bed side lamp on and as he turned back to face Blaine, the amount of shock and horror they both contained could not even be described. He was staring at his own appearance. Kurt felt the blood drain out from his body and he could feel his heart pounding madly inside his chest. But it wasn't his chest, it was Blaine's chest. It was Blaine's body. He was inside Blaine's body and he felt sick. Blaine was frozen on the spot, trying to take in the fact that he was inside Kurt's body. He tried to push aside his dirty thoughts but it wasn't quite working and Kurt realized that when Blaine smirked suggestively. "THIS IS REAL LIFE FREAKY FRIDAY." Kurt exclaimed, feeling unshed tears swimming in his eyes. Blaine felt weird hearing his voice and seeing his body move without him doing it. He tried to stay calm even though he was filled with fear. It was weird watching himself freak out.
"Kurt, we need to stay calm and-" Kurt quickly interrupted him, anger built up inside.
"STAY CALM? I'M IN YOUR BODY!" Kurt was on the edge of an emotional break down. He couldn't get his head around how any of this had happened. He didn't think things like this could happen. He had watched movies like this and laughed at how unrealistic they were and how people couldn't just simply switch bodies, but this was happening. Kurt was inside Blaine's body. Blaine was inside Kurt's body. They were each other. He took powerful breaths, hoping it would stop his racing heart. "How are you calm about this?" He could feel tears rolling down.
"Because breaking down and sobbing isn't going to solve anything. We need to work out how this happened and how to get ourselves back into our own bodies." He hesitated. "It's weird you know, seeing myself break down but not as myself."
"It's weird seeing myself being so calm about this. Everything is so weird." He wiped the tears from his cheeks and examined his own body. Seeing himself from outside of his body really made him fill with self hatred. He still had slightly dark circles under his eyes and random pieces of hair had fallen onto his forehead. He took a sigh, wondering why someone as gorgeous as Blaine was in love with him.
"We are still the same people inside. We just have different appearances. It's going to be okay, we will just have to live each other's lives for a while. This will be an opportunity to see how each other lives." Kurt nodded, running his fingers through his curls.
"Okay, so what do you normally do now?" Blaine smirked and glanced down at his pants.
"Well normally, I take these off..." He pointed down to the incredibly tight jeans that were wrapped tightly around his legs. "And well you know what happens next." He winked, causing Kurt to gasp in shock.
"This is extremely weird seeing myself being all flirty and seductive. We can't do any of that. You need to act like me, Blaine. I need to act like you." Blaine straightened his body posture and gave Kurt a sweet smile.
"Hello, I'm Kurt Hummel and I love fashion, scarves and my gorgeous boyfriend Blaine." Blaine spoke mockingly, causing Kurt to roll his eyes.
"Hey, I'm Blaine and I love loads of hair gel, my boyfriend but most of all, I love bowties." His fingers fiddled with the bowtie around his neck softly and Blaine laughed. "I can't believe this is happening. My voice is so low and my hair feels all weird like some parts are gelled down but most is free." He pulled at a loose strand of hair on his head.
"Welcome to my world." Blaine grinned, allowing his top teeth to be shown even though he knew that Kurt hated showing his top teeth.
"You too." They both glanced around Blaine's bedroom, noticing the photo of the two of them surrounded by a frame, noticing the wardrobe of bowties stacked up before they both noticed a small slip of paper that rested at the end of his bed. The exchanged a quick glance before Kurt grabbed the note and held it up in the air.
"Soulmate Swap: You will both be in each other's bodies for two weeks. - QJ." He hesitated. "Who the fuck is QJ? And how did they do this?" His triangular eye brows raised in discombobulation.
"Magic." Blaine replied but felt a wave of relief over the shortness of the time period they would be like this. It wasn't that he wouldn't love to be Kurt, it's just that he loved Kurt's body too much and he loved being able to worship Kurt's own body with his own hands and lips. Kurt also looked relieved and he took a deep sigh of happiness.
"Two weeks. This will be interesting." Kurt murmured. Blaine sat down next to him and crossed his legs to try and get into "Kurt mode". They sat in silence, clearly thinking of they were going to be able to portray each other for two weeks. Blaine examined the profile of his own face and noticed how long his eye lashes were. Once he turned back to face the front, Kurt took the opportunity to examine his own profile. He really hated his nose. He took in a deep sigh and made his way to the mirror. Blaine was gorgeous. He always knew that. But now being in Blaine's body, he realized just how gorgeous Blaine was. He had thick, long eye lashes, gorgeous hazelnut eyes, tanned skin that Kurt had spent many days kissing and tracing his lips over. He knew that he was definitely going to break those curls free. That wasn't to say that he thought Blaine didn't look attractive with lots of hair gel in, it was just that Kurt missed seeing Blaine's curls and how they flowed softly. After a few minutes, Blaine followed Kurt's lead and he stood in front of the mirror to examine Kurt's face. He knew that Kurt was beautiful, nothing was ever going to make him change his mind no matter how much self hatred Kurt was filled with. He loved Kurt's eyes, they were like an ocean blue and he loved Kurt's nose and how cute it was. Kurt was undoubtedly beautiful. The most beautiful thing Blaine had ever seen. He smiled to himself which made Kurt cringe. He hated his smile and now seeing it happening right in front of him made him feel uncomfortable. Blaine then glanced down at the pants he was wearing. He was completely clueless as to how Kurt could wear these everyday. He knew how hard they were to take off as Blaine had spent many days trying to pull them off his boyfriend but they were so uncomfortable. Blaine wouldn't complain though because that would mean Kurt would stop wearing them and considering they really showed off Kurt's ass, Blaine couldn't let that happen.
"I'm actually really looking forward to living your life." Blaine smirked. "I mean, I can get naked whenever I want." Kurt gave Blaine a playful nudge but not too hard encase he damaged his own body.
"Just don't do anything... sexual with yourself please. Please be respectful that you are in my body."
"So what you're saying is, for two weeks whilst I'm caged inside my gorgeous, hot boyfriend, who has a perfect body, I am not allowed to masturbate?" Kurt nodded.
"It would be too weird." After a few seconds of hesitation, Blaine nodded his head in agreement. They were both trying to get used to being inside each other's bodies. Kurt pulled at a few strands of curls and examined them carefully. He then looked closely in the mirror at his thick, triangular eye brows. Blaine grinned in the mirror, taking the opportunity of being in his boyfriend's body to see all of Kurt's teeth that he hid away. After half an hour of examining bodies and checking singing voices, they were interrupted by Mr Anderson.
"Wow, you two look much better." He spoke, causing Kurt and Blaine to swivel their bodies round to face him. They both gave him a small smile. "Blaine, maybe it's time for Kurt to go? It's getting late." Kurt stayed silent, forgetting that he in fact was "Blaine". Blaine gave him a small nudge and he quickly stuttered out a "yes".
"Thank you for having me, sir." Blaine spoke, giving his Father a quick nod before grabbing Kurt's school bag and making his way out of the house and into Kurt's car. Kurt gave him a little wave as he left and was left alone in the room with Mr Anderson.
"So Blaine, you need to be going to sleep soon. Your mother and I will be downstairs." He spoke.
"Okay, uhm... Dad." Kurt quickly gave Blaine's dad a smile as he walked out of the room. He glanced around at his boyfriend's bedroom. The numerous pictures there were of the two of them together; Blaine's desk was scattered with papers and a few small polaroid pictures of he and Kurt, his bedside table had much more classier photos of Kurt alone. Two weeks. He had to live his boyfriend's life for two weeks. They had to live each other's lives for two weeks. Maybe he would find out interesting little things about Blaine that he didn't know before. He wondered what Burt, Finn and Carole would be doing right now. He wondered whether Blaine was portraying him convincingly enough. Just two weeks and then they would have their bodies back and everything would go back to normal...
