Allen calls “Katie” to cancel the double date

Once you (David’s self in Claire’s body with her memories, now thinking almost as if you’re the real Claire) and Katie (Jessica’s self in Katie’s body, likewise) enter your house, you tell her, “Let’s wait in my room!” You’re delighted to find that you both automatically go to Claire’s room, as if you’d never been your siblings!

Katie closes your bedroom door once you’re both inside, and at once you go to your full-length mirror to admire yourself. “At last you’re all mine…” you tell your nerdy but totally hot reflection.

“Jessica guessed right,” says Katie, almost as if there’s nothing of Jessica in her. “She always thought she was David’s girlfriend only because of the **** taboo, because he couldn’t have Claire! So when she decided to become me, it was obvious that he should become you!”

“Yes…” you say, stroking the delicate redhead-skin of your right arm with your left hand — Claire, you now, is the only southpaw in your family. Then Katie’s phone rings.

It’s a short conversation, and from what you hear of it, it’s obvious that Allen’s calling to cancel the double date, and, it looks like, arrange a date a few days from now between himself and Katie. Afterwards, Katie says, “There’s a minor family emergency for Allen to handle, and he also says that Scott thinks you’re out of his league!”

“That’s the most appealing thing I’ve heard about Scott, ever!” you say.

“Actually, I shouldn’t have set up that date, and I’m glad it’s fallen through,” says Katie.

“It’s strange, Katie,” you say. “When I first became me, I thought we had girl-crushes on each other, but…”

“We’re simply the only two seriously intelligent people we know, Claire!” she says. “It’s not sexual at all for me, just I admire you and your brain is at least slightly better than mine, and no wonder we’re close!”

“Same here,” you tell her. “Except maybe you’re the girl with the better brain! I just flaunt my brains, with the nerdy glasses instead of a pair of contacts!”

“Contacts couldn’t duplicate the color of your totally killer green eyes, anyway,” says Katie.
