Brian had won. Joshy was beat and he knew it. What else could he do
but what those pricks Brian and Ty forced him to do? So he complied.
He would not give them the satisfaction of begging to be changed back.
After awhile, Brian began to feel a bit of remorse. After all, Joshy
was still his dad, and maybe he set a poor example, but hadn't he
learned his lesson?
Brian snapped his fingers, pointed and bellowed, "Joshy, over here!"
Josh hastily stopped his housecleaning and ran over to stand in front
of his now fully grown son.
"I want to ask you a simple question, Joshy".
"Yes Sir", Josh yelled in his best military style, though pre-
pubescent voice.
"If you had discovered I was gay before today, what would you have
done about it? Before you answer, Ty, can you make him tell the
truth?"
Ty replied, "Of course. Give me a minute.".
Ty concentrated for a second and wished that Joshy would only utter
the absolute truth for the next 10 minutes. He wasn't sure it was a
great idea to make this change permanent, though.
Ty looked back at Brian and nodded.
Brian looked at Josh and said, "Answer now".
Josh, of course, had no choice but to say what he felt despite the
growing pit in his stomach. He look down and uttered, "I would beat
you until you told me it was a lie. If that didn't work, I would have
kicked you out of the house."
Brian angrily growled "You fucking piece of shit. I should do the same
to you."
Josh replied, "I wouldn't blame you if you did. I know it was wrong
now."
A bit taken by surprise, Brian looked over at Ty. Ty shrugged, "He's
telling the truth."
Brian signed. "Ty, what do you think we should do with him?"
Ty thought for a second and an idea came to him. "What if we give him
a choice?"
"A choice?", Brian asked.
"Yeah. Be gay and go back to his old body, or be straight and stay 12
years old."
A look of horror on Josh's face told Brian this was a pretty good
idea.
"How 'bout it, Joshy, what do you choose?"
