de bombz: heh, glad you like it.
NefCanuck: I'll try my best to make it interesting
A/N: Sorry people, if I really confused you. From now on, I will refer to Keitaro's body as Naru and Naru's body as Keitaro. So if Naru, in Keitaro's body, falls down, it will say "Naru fell down" and Naru will be referred to as she, and Keitaro will be referred to as a he. Okay, now on with the show!
Change of Mind, Chapter 1: Sleeping Arrangements
After Motoko and Shinobu were revived, there was an emergency meeting in the dining room, with everybody present. For some odd reason, Mutsumi was also at the meeting; the suspicions were that Tama had informed her.
------The Meeting------
Everybody sat around the table, all eyes on Haruka. Before the meeting Keitaro and Naru had debriefed Haruka. She was only half-listening, washing plates and cleaning up, when Keitaro started the story, but when he got to the part about the mind switch, Haruka dropped the plates she was holding and nearly swallowed the cigarette she was smoking. Keitaro waited for a moment until his aunt regained her composure. Haruka cleaned up the broken dishes, sat down, and promptly lit another cigarette. Then Keitaro continued. As soon as the tale was told, Haruka had called an emergency meeting of all residents.
"Okay you guys. Do you all realize why you are here?" Haruka asked. Everybody but Mutsumi said yes.
"What happened? I just know it has something to do with Kei-kun and Na-chan." Mutsumi said.
"Well, you see, Naru and Keitaro seemed to have exchanged bodies, minds, whatever. So now, Keitaro is in Naru's body and–"
"Oh my, I didn't realize that you two were that close. Is this a meeting to declare your love to each other?" Mutsumi asked, blissfully unaware. Everybody hit the ground, Haruka included.
"What I meant is, they have switched bodies, so Keitaro's mind is in Naru's body and vice-versa. It's not like they've consummated anything." Haruka finished.
"Oh, well that certainly is a problem." Mutsumi said.
"Oh, brilliant deduction there, watermelon girl." Kitsune said dryly.
"Anyways, back to the point. Obviously, Naru is still Naru, although she looks like Keitaro. So logically, she will be allowed to use the hot springs. Keitaro regardless of his or her appearances, is still the apartment manager, so he will logically continue to do all the manager duties. As for sleeping arrangements," Haruka paused, and looked at Keitaro and Naru, "I will let you two decide what to do."
"Umm, Haruka? What am I suppose to do about clothing? I don't exactly know how to put on a bra, considering up until today, I never needed one. Whose going to teach me that?" Keitaro asked his aunt.
"Hey, you've peeked on me enough times while I was dressing; you should be able to figure it out." Naru shot at him.
"Every time I've seen you, five seconds later, I get hit with a Naru punch. I can't really learn much in five seconds, Naru." Keitaro replied. Everyone stared. Ordinarily, Keitaro would be begging for forgiveness. " Oh, and one more issue. Since I am decidedly female, the female body has, err… certain processes, which umm, I don't–" Keitaro began.
"You mean periods and such?" Haruka asked bluntly. Keitaro nodded. "Well, for both issues, you should ask Naru. She probably knows her own body the best." Haruka then turned to Su. "Su, can you make something that will reverse this effect?"
"Eh… I don't know. It took me three months to figure out how to do it. It'll probably take me half the time this time, but no matter, I got to go work now!" And with that, Su ran to her room, where the loud whirring of machinery could be heard from within.
"Now that concludes the meeting. All other questions should be directed at Keitaro or Naru. I have to go back to the tea shop, so if you need me, that's where I'll be." Haruka said, and then left.
"This is definitely an interesting situation. I will need to clear my head. Please excuse me, for I shall retire for the night." Motoko said before getting up and going to her room.
"Umm… I don't really have any questions. Uh… Good night Naru and Sempai." Shinobu said as she walked to the kitchen to clean up for the night.
"Well, I better be getting home," Mutsumi said as she got up. "Oh dear, I can't remember where I live." Everyone sweatdropped.
"You can stay here for the night, Mutsumi." Keitaro said. Mutsumi ambled off towards the guest room. The only people left were Naru, Keitaro, and Kitsune.
"Heh heh heh, I'll let you two figure out what to do." Kitsune chuckled as she went to her room. Now Naru and Keitaro were the only two people in the room. Keitaro was the first to break the silence.
"Err… So what exactly do you have in mind for sleeping arrangements?" Keitaro asked Naru.
"Of course I'm sleeping with you!" Naru practically shouted. "I need to make sure you don't do anything perverted while you're me." Mental images developed in Keitaro's mind, and his nose started to bleed. "Don't even think about anything perverted." Naru said in a deadly whisper while giving Keitaro and death stare. "Now we have to get ready for bed."
Fifteen minutes later, they were both in Keitaro's room, Keitaro in a robe, and Naru in one of Keitaro's shirts and boxers.
"I see you've adapted to the situation below your waist." Kitsune said with a smirk. Naru and Keitaro both jumped; evidently Kitsune had been hiding in Keitaro's room.
"What in the world are you doing in my room, Kitsune?" Keitaro asked her.
"Well, I obviously can't miss something like this. It's a setup for trouble, and I just have to be in the audience." Kitsune said cheerily.
"Only you…" Naru said, shaking her head.
"I'm sorry Kitsune, I am going to have to ask you to leave." Keitaro said as he started to push Kitsune out of the room.
"Why do you want me to leave? Are you that intent on getting together with Naru?" Kitsune said as she was being pushed out of the room. That did the trick. Keitaro froze up, and then started babbling nonsense.
"Kitsune, can you please just leave us alone?" Naru said with an exasperated sigh.
"Well," Kitsune said, turning to Naru. "I was expecting it from Keitaro, but you too, eh Naru?"
"OUT!" Naru shouted. Kitsune got the message and retreated to her room.
"Okay, now back to the matter at hand. Keitaro, don't even try to think about this any other way. What I am doing is solely out of necessity, not because I want to, understand?" Naru said, turning back to Keitaro. "So–" Naru paused and stared at Keitaro.
"What? What's the matter?" Keitaro asked, flustered.
"YOU'RE NOT WEARING A BRA!" Naru roared at Keitaro, sending him back a few feet.
"Well, I tried, but I couldn't figure out how to put one on." Keitaro said sheepishly.
"How hard can it be?" Naru asked as she stood up. "Now give me a boost." Obligingly, Keitaro lifted Naru and helped her into her room. A few minutes later, she jumped back down holding a bra.
"Okay, what am I suppose to do?" Keitaro asked, taking off the robe.
"Well, you put your arms through here and here, then pull it up to your shoulders." Naru said, pointing at the two straps. "Then, you just click the clasp on the back and you're done." Keitaro after struggling for a moment, gave a sigh of frustration, and flopped down on his stomach.
"Owww!" Keitaro cried, half from pain, half from surprise.
"You idiot… don't you realize you have breasts now? That it will obviously hurt if you smash them with your body weight? Speaking of which, go easy on my body. It's not indestructible like yours… Here." Naru said, pulling Keitaro up and helping him with the bra. As she pointed and explained, she thought, "This is so weird. I'm helping myself dress myself." After Keitaro had figured out how to use a bra, Naru left and came back with a tampon.
"This, as you know, is a tampon." Naru said. "Since I've already had my period a few days ago, we should be fine for today. Anyways, I'm tired, so I'll teach you tomorrow. Good night." Naru said, and lay down on her futon. Keitaro, after a moment, lay down too. Then, a thought struck him: Naru was sleeping with him! After a moment, he changed his mind: Naru was sleeping as him with herself, which was him as her, and… Keitaro gave up; he was too tired anyways. A while later, he fell asleep, and started to snore softly. Meanwhile, Kitsune was watching from her room through a peephole she had made. After watching for another minute to make sure Keitaro was asleep, she gave a sigh and flopped down onto her futon.
"Nothing happening tonight, that's for sure." She said, looking up at the ceiling. "Oh well, maybe tomorrow will be more interesting." With that thought, Kitsune fell asleep.
END CHAPTER 2
A/N: Okay, that's finally done. I think maybe Naru is a bit OOC, but oh well. Sorry about the time, I was kinda busy with stuff to do. Anyways, next chapter hasn't even been started yet, so yeah, update will be in about two weeks or so. Regardless, next chapter will be just as interesting. Keitaro gets well-versed in being a girl. Heh heh heh… Leave some comments and/or suggestions!
