...their neighbor, Ben. He was 16, April's age, and a skinny boy who often spent time after school with the math club. He and April had been friends when they were little, but as April had grown older and prettier and more popular, she barely had time for Ben. Now they almost never talked.
Secretly, though, April still liked Ben, and wanted him to like her. Before he could ask her what was going on, she snapped her fingers. He forgot what to say, and inside the house, Garrett returned to normal with no memory of April's powers
"I...huh," Ben said with a confused look. "I was going to ask you something, but I can't remember what it was."
"Did you want to come in?" April asked politely.
"Sure, thanks."
They sat down inside, but couldn't think of anything to say. Then April got an idea. Until she stopped it, anything she said about Ben would be true!
She decided on a quick test. "Ben, I like your shirt. What is it, Aeropostale muscle?" Instantly, the shirt morphed into just that.
"Yeah."
"I heard your family won the lottery recently. Aren't you like super-rich now?"
"Yeah, my mom won. We've tried not to publicize it so I can still live normally, but I've been able to afford nice clothes."
Now, here was her biggest test yet.
April said, "You know, puberty has been really kind to you. Who'd have thought 5 years ago that the tiny boy you were would become a 6'6" 250 pound muscle god with male supermodel good looks, a phone-sex voice, and golden blond hair? And star quarterback and captain of the football team, to boot?"
Soon, Ben matched her sexy new description. "Well, I had that growth spurt in 7th grade and started working out. I decided to give football a try. I go to the gym every other day now."
April continued, "But it broke your heart when your girlfriend broke your heart. And that's why you came over here, to ask me out. Isn't it?"
Ben blushed under his new blond stubble. "Well, yeah. How did you know?"
She smiled. "I always knew." She kissed him and he kissed back. Soon, they stripped to their underwear. She felt his broad pecs and hard abs abs thick biceps.
"I never got over you. Of course I'll go out with you. What should we do first?"
