Ric read off the spell again. Josh somehow found himself held in place, unable to stop Ric from transforming him.
Ric explained, "You, Josie, you used to be my little brother Josh, and you, Francesca, used to be the counselor Francesco. You remember everything that happened as your old selves, but your names are Josie and Francesco now. You would never have guessed this before your transformation, but you find being female to be incredibly exciting. Both of you are in love with me and want to have sex with me. Since you used to be guys, you're too embarrassed to admit it and you try to pretend that you aren't attracted to me and you want to be guys again, but it's hard for you to completely hide it. You are never jealous of each other."
Both girls blinked several times.
"Josh," said Ric, "I'm sorry I made you a girl. I just didn't want you to interfere."
"Josie," she replied. "As long as I'm a girl, I need a girl's name. So I'm Josie."
"Well, that's just until I change you back," said Ric. "You do want me to change you back, right?"
"Of course!" said Josie, a bit of nervousness in her voice. "It's just..." She gave Ric a big kiss.
"What's that all about?" asked Ric.
"What? The kiss? I can't kiss my own brother? Especially considering how hot you are?"
"But how can you find guys hot?" askjed Ric. "You're a guy, right? You're not attracted to guys."
"Of course I'm a guy!" objected Josie. "It's just, well... I mean if I did stay a girl, you and I could.... Oh, never mind. I... I can't really talk about it."
