Disclaimer: All Drake & Josh characters copyright their proper owners. I just wrote this. Um, similar to Freaky Friday? Yes. Only to the point where Drake and Josh switch. Then it's my game.

Author's Note: So, I'm starting my classes tomorrow. We'll see how much I can update this. Sorry for the time block, but I had a bit of trouble writing this chapter. I knew what I wanted to do after this one, but I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in this one. So, if it's bad...sorry. I remember when I came up with this story idea. It was October and I was sitting in my campus's cafeteria waiting to meet my friends, listening to Telegraph and doodling in my notebook. I started thinking of story ideas. I was like, I gotta use this! ...and I write it in January, lol. Oh, well. I'm writing it now aren't I?


Drake and Josh walked into school. How were they going to work this?

"Okay," said Josh. "We only know our own locker combinations, so we might as well go to them. If anyone asks, I was asked by you to get something from your locker, and you were asked by me to get something from mine. Got it?"

"I guess so," Drake replied. "See ya in a few minutes."

The guys split up and headed to their own lockers. Drake got to his own. Once there, he was approached by Claire, his date for tomorrow night.

"Drake...uh...not Drake?" said Claire, giving him a blank stare.

"Uh, no," Drake replied. "I'm his brother Josh."

"Oh," Claire replied. "Where is he, and why are you at his locker?"

"I'm, uh, getting something for him. He asked me to," Drake responded.

"Why didn't he just get it himself?" asked Claire.

"I don't know," said Drake. "Um, I have to go find him." Drake was beginning to panic.

"I'll go with you," said Claire.

"Uh, no," said Drake.

"Why not?"

"Because, um, uh, look, he's not, I gotta go!" Drake cried, taking off down the hall. Man, he was making a fool of himself. Oh, well. At least it was Josh looking like the lunatic and not him.


Meanwhile...

Josh was at his locker, grabbing what he, er, Drake would need. This whole situation was starting to confuse Josh. He hadn't counted on Mindy walking up to his locker that morning. Dang, how would this work?

"Hi..." said Mindy. "Drake, what are you doing at Josh's locker?"

"Um," Josh began. "He asked me to get something for him."

"I don't believe that," said Mindy.

"Why not?" asked Josh.

"You're not that type of person." Mindy definitely wasn't as easy to fool as Claire. "Wait," she said. "It's been like twenty seconds and you haven't called me 'creature' or 'horrible girl.' You haven't thrown a single insult in my direction."

"Well," said Josh. "Seems kinda childish, don't you think?"

"I guess," said Mindy. "Okay, who are you and what have you done with Drake Parker?"

Josh considered telling Mindy the truth. Maybe she'd believe him.

"You see," said Josh. "I'm not really Drake. I'm Josh. We somehow magically switched bodies in our sleep, and now..."

"Okay, Drake," said Mindy. "Seriously, you need to work on lying to people."

She didn't believe him. Of course she didn't believe him. She thought he was Drake! He was the last person she'd believe.

"Anyway," said Mindy. "I have to go talk to Mrs. Haifer. If you see Josh, tell him I'm looking for him."

"Sure," said Josh.

Mindy walked down the hall toward the English classroom. Josh sighed. Mindy wasn't easy to fool. They just had to figure this out. Josh glanced in the other direction to see Drake come flying down the hall. It freaked Josh out at first, due to Drake's outward appearance.

"What's up?" Josh asked as Drake came to a screeching halt in front of him.

"Claire is asking questions," Drake replied.

"Man," said Josh. "So is Mindy. She already thinks something is up."

"Why?"

"I didn't insult her."

"Why not?"

"I'm not going to insult my girlfriend."

"Whatever," Drake responded. "How are we supposed to get through this day?"

"I don't know," Josh replied. "Just try to be like each other I guess."


The guys sat in English. They knew this would be difficult. Mrs. Haifer didn't like Drake at all. Josh was not looking forward to class while Drake was looking forward to it because Mrs. Haifer loved Josh. They were supposed to be working on editing a paragraph with mistakes in it. They'd have to correct it out loud at the end. Josh was worried Mrs. Haifer would ask him to do it, as Drake would have to answer for him.

"All right everyone," said Mrs. Haifer. "We'll correct this now. Let's begin with Mindy."

Mindy corrected the first sentence flawlessly. Drake sat there wondering if Mrs. Haifer would call on him or Josh. That would make things very interesting.

"Michael, will you please correct the next sentence?" asked Mrs. Haifer.

Michael read through the next sentence.

"Okay," said Mrs. Haifer. "I hate to do this, but Drake..."

Drake smiled from where he sat. Josh would have to answer, Mrs. Haifer was going to think he was smart for once.

"Well," began Josh. "I didn't see what was wrong with the sentence."

"Drake!" said Mrs. Haifer. "There is punctuation wrong everywhere. You're telling me you didn't catch one?"

"Nope," said Josh.

Drake wondered what Josh was doing. Wait, he was trying to act like Drake. Such a shame. Well, Drake couldn't exactly act like Josh.

"Josh," said Mrs. Haifer. "Please."

"I didn't find anything wrong either, Mrs. Haifer," said Drake.

Mrs. Haifer stared at Drake in bewilderment.

"But, but Josh!" she cried.

Drake smirked and looked over at Josh. His face was red.

"I didn't," said Drake. "Sorry Mrs. Haifer."

Mrs. Haifer looked as though she would fall over. Josh didn't know the answer?

Mindy glanced back at Drake. She couldn't understand what the matter was. Normally Josh could answer a question like that.

Josh's face was still red. He should have realized Drake wouldn't know the answer. He sighed and put up his hand.

"Yes, Drake?" said Mrs. Haifer. "What comment would you like to add. Quite frankly, I'm shocked that you even raised your hand."

"Well," said Josh. "I just noticed that there should be no comma before the word 'since' and you should use 'really' instead of 'so' to emphasize the word 'blue.'"

Mrs. Haifer looked like she'd faint.

"You...are right," she said. "I'm sorry. This is just amazing."

Drake wondered what Josh was up to now. What difference did it make if he answered now? Oh, well. Maybe Mrs. Haifer would be a bit nicer to him from now on.


After somehow making it through their remaining morning classes, Drake and Josh went to lunch still worried about their situation.

"Okay," said Drake. "What was with you in English?"

"I was trying to act like you," Josh replied. "Then I realized you can't act like me."

"So you gave in?"

"Not really," Josh smiled. "You'll see."

"Whatever."

Mindy approached the table and slid next to Drake. She leaned in for a kiss, and Drake dodged it.

"What's the matter with you?" asked Mindy.

"Nothing," said Drake.

"You're not acting like yourself today, and neither is Drake," she said, puzzled.

"It's just um...that um..." Drake stammered.

"We're just not feeling very well today," Josh said.

"Really?" asked Mindy.

"Yeah," Josh continued. "Just feeling a little off today."

"I see," said Mindy. She turned back to Drake. "Are we still going out tomorrow?"

"Of course you two are," said Josh.

"Huh?" asked Drake.

"Gee Drake," said Mindy. "You're being very supportive of our relationship now."

"Uh," said Josh. "Gotta grow up sometime, right?"

"I guess so," Mindy replied. She got up looking confused and headed out the doors of the cafeteria.


Drake and Josh got ready for bed. This was all too weird. Josh walked into the bedroom after cleaning up in the bathroom.

"I WILL NOT GO OUT WITH MINDY TOMORROW!" Drake yelled at his brother.

"Good evening to you too," Josh replied. "Besides, you might not even have to go out with her. Maybe we'll be normal tomorrow morning."

"I hope so," Drake said. "If not...well I don't want to think about what will happen."

"Relax," Josh said.

Drake went to climb into his bed.

"Um," said Josh. "If we sleep in our own beds and Megan comes in to do something to us in the middle of the night, she'll think something's up. I'd rather she didn't think something was up with the switching of the beds. Besides, if we switch back, we'll be in our own beds tomorrow morning."

"Okay," said Drake. "Fine." He climbed into Josh's bed. Josh shut off the light and climbed into Drake's bed. They both hoped things would be right in the morning.
