He's not the scrawny boy you remember anymore...

"Jessie? Is that you?"

You remember Jessie as a the prototypical geek, slightly shorter than you but with a self-conscious stoop that made him seem even smaller, a kid with thick rimmed spectacles which hid startlingly blue eyes that never met anyone else's.

Those blue eyes were the same, but they seemed to be the only things about the young man that had stayed the same. He was ripped - not like a bodybuilder, but like a well trained athlete, toned of muscle and confident in movement. That same confidence emanated from the way he carried himself - no stoop now, and he had no problems meeting your wide eyed gaze with his own, and you see him blink in confusion.

"Uh... I'm looking for..." And then it hits him, and his eyes grew as wide as your own. "Holy cow... {firstname}?!"

His eyes flicked downward, traveling from your heels, up the smooth lines of your legs, your cinched waist, and lingering across your -

Without even realizing it, you find your arms across your chest, your cheeks growing hot. "It's not my idea!" You're glad that your voice, at least, remains unchanged, even if your embarrassment causes it to go up a few registers. "The stupid house has gone crazy, and I need you to fix it!"

"Um... I think I need to sit down," he says.

It takes you a few minutes to explain everything that?s happened, and at the end of it Jessie shakes his head. "You know, I'd never believe this otherwise, but seeing you standing there looking like an honest-to-goodness girl..." He shakes his head again, and his voice lowers. "And a pretty one at that..."

You feel your cheeks flush again, and you stand in front of him and cross your arms beneath what you reluctantly admit look a lot like actual breasts. "Well? Are you going to help me or not?"

Jessie gets to his feet, and suddenly you find yourself looking up at him, wondering at how he could have gotten not only more muscular but taller to boot. Standing so close to you, looming so large, you suddenly feel a rush of apprehension and take a step back, your arms uncrossing but staying protectively close to your body.

"Jessie?"
