RIIING. Gym class was finally over! Chris and Ryan were relieved. It was the last class of the day. Chris already had plans to go over to Ryan's house to work on a new program they were writing. Ryan lived only a short walk away so they decides to walk it.
"Hey Ryan, what was up with Coach today? Why did he give us free gatoraid?". "Dunno, but mine tasted a bit chalky. Oh well. Coach is a little weird but he seems okay", Ryan replied. "Yeah. A little weird. And a lot smelly!", Chris joked. "Ha ha! Yeah I know. He does smell pretty bad. Like, does he even shOWER?", Ryan joked, however his already quite feminine sounding voice cracked quite loudly at the end. Chris looked at Ryan, who looked equally surprised. "Huh, my voice has never cracked before!", Ryan mused to himself. "Weird".
It was hot outside and by the time they got to Ryan's house they were all sweating a bit. They ran up to Ryan's room and turned on his computer. No one appeared to be home.
They open up the program they had been writing and began to work. About 5 minutes later, Ryan became distracted by a smell. "Hey Chris, speaking of coach, doesn't it smell a bit like him up here?". Chris smelled experimentally and he did catch a whiff of BO. Huh, it did smell like coach. "I wonder what that is?", pondered Ryan as he wondered around his room looking for the source of the unpleasant odor. As Ryan got close to Chris he realized it was him. "Uhh hey Chris? I think the smell is coming from you!". Chris gave a puzzled look and sniffed under his arm. Sure enough, Chris caught a small whiff of body odor. Yup it was him! Chris was confused; he had never had body odor before! Why did his armpits smell all of a sudden?!
"Uhh yeah your right Ryan! Weird. I've never had body odor before. Ever!". "Yeah that is strange. I don't wear deodorant either but I think my dad has some in the bathroom". "Oh thanks man, let me go put on some deoDORANT!", Chris said, his voice now cracking violently as well. Chris' hand instinctively went to his throat where he felt a small bump that wasn't there before.
"Dude, your voice is CRACKing too?! What is going on!?", Ryan wondered, his voice cracking as well. "I dunno man. Let's just get back to work and try not to think about it", Chris remarked, while unconsciously scratching his armpit through his T-shirt.
