a month later

One month. It was almost exactly that since you had last spoke with Jackie. The wedding had been a whirlwind, with little chance to talk privately after the inexplicable switch of her and Judy's minds. You all agreed to carry on with the ceremony until you could try to figure out what happened and how to fix it. But you and Judy (in Jackie's body) were never alone through the wedding & reception, and Jackie was whisked off by Judy's family afterwards.

So you and Judy spend your wedding night mostly in awkward silence, interacting as little as possible. Over the course of your lengthy honeymoon tour of the Mediterranean, you gradually grew more comfortable with each other. It was difficult for you as you kept seeing the woman you loved when you looked at Judy. But Judy, with her carefree (and a bit silly) personality helped you relax and even enjoy the trip - her enthusiasm was infectious.

She treated you more like a brother or close friend as you travelled together, excitedly pointing out the sites as she dragged you through each city. You couldn't help but occasionally respond as if she were Jackie, even leaning in to kiss her a few times. But she always pulled back, with a polite but firm reminder of who she actually was.

You have only managed a couple calls with Jackie given the time difference, and not wanting to raise questions with her family about why you were calling during the honeymoon. But at least you were going to see her again!

You rushed off the plane, grabbed your luggage, and headed to the pickup area to meet her.
