Michael told the taxi driver their destination and the cab took off. Next thing Tom knew Michael has placed his right hand on top of her left hand which she had innocently rested on the seat in the space between them. Tom froze. What should she do?
What would the real Kerry do? Would she object to Michael holding her hand? Probably not was the answer Tom immediately came up with. Kate liked to hold hands with Tom. It didn’t necessarily mean she wanted to have sex. Tom resisted the temptation to pull her hand away.
Tom sat there, silently looking out the window to her right. She did not look at the large male sitting beside her. The male who thought she was his wife. A male who no doubt found her body attractive. What male wouldn’t find Kerry’s body in a leather skirt attractive? A male who was currently holding her hand.
Maybe this was totally innocent? Michael was married to this body and Tom was wearing Kerry’s rings. He thought Tom was Kerry. Perhaps Kerry had Michael trained to hold hands? She should have been warned. She had been so excited about attending the football that she had not considered the other possible consequences of being in Michael’s wife’s body.
She realised they had no clear plan to swap back. What would happen after the game when it was time to go home? Was she expected to go home with Michael? She would have to tell Michael who she really was. There was no alternative.
She turned to Michael. “I need to ……” She was interrupted by Michael’s phone going off.
He disengaged their hands and took the phone from his coat pocket “It’s Bill” he informed her, then answered “We are on our way in a taxi” He paused to listen ………. “No that wouldn’t be a problem. It’s actually closer for us” ………"Looking forward to it. ........... "Champagne? Yes I'm sure Kerry would enjoy a glass or two" ................ “See you soon”
He turned to Tom. “Change of plans” then called to the driver “Can we change the destination to the Milford Hotel”
Tom meantime had got another idea. While Michael had been on the phone she had fumbled in Kerry’s bag and found Kerry’s phone. Kerry had fingerprint identification, so Tom was able to unlock it with no trouble. He texted to his own number. "How do we swap back when the footy finishes?"
There wasn't an immediate answer. Tom continued to gaze out the window and pretend Michael wasn't there. She made sure her hands were on her lap, still holding Kerry's phone, not where Michael could casually hold them.
Michael did detect that Kerry was in a funny mood. She had seemed to stiffen when he held her hand earlier. He wondered if it was due to female hormones. They had mutually agreed that they wanted to start a family. She had stopped taking the pill. She had even given him a booklet to read on the female menstrual cycle. He knew she had experienced a period last week so soon she would be in her fertile period. He wondered if that was beginning now?
He had read that women's hormones changed during the cycle and that at the time of ovulation they were, what was the word? 'Receptive' Kerry was randy at the best of times. The fact that she might be even more so than usual excited him. That was probably why she had dressed so sexily. He would be expected to do what husbands do and impregnate her. That got him excited. He shifted in his seat and discreetly rearranged his baby making apparatus. That was about the one problem with having a large penis. It could be quite awkward sitting down when you were excited.
