A Day At The Carnival free porn video

"A day at the Carnival" by cj Wenhurst It was a summer monday morning. Sam dragged himself out of bed, half hung-over from what seemed to be a weekend that wasn't long enough for his social needs. "Shit", he mumbled to himself as he glanced over at the alarm clock which didn't go off as usual,"one of these days I'm going to replace this piece of shit." Wearing only his pajama bottoms, he staggered groggily into the bathroom, tripping over his clothes which were strewn all over the floor from a latenight undressing, and he walked up to the mirror to begin his daily ritual of getting ready for the day. Looking in the mirror, he saw his unshaven face staring back, his eyes slightly bloodshot and a little puffy from lack of rest. He dragged himself over to the shower, slid open the shower door, and turned on the cold water only, thinking stepping into an ice cold shower would wake him up just as fast as any hot cup of coffee could. Having been hit by a sudden urge to urinate, he turned, raised the toilet seat and let out with a gasp of relief and a three- minute urination. "Ahh, that's better", he said. He proceeded to flush then removed his pajama bottoms and turned back to the shower. The shower, having been running all this time, had gotten even colder. He stepped into the ice-cold water all at once, and jolted into reality letting out a loud "damn that's cold water, where the hell am I?! Antartica?" and proceeded to crank the hot water knob to mix a more comfortable blend of temperatures. "Damn!" he said to himself out loud, leaning forward with one hand on the wall,"I ain't gonna party like that any more for a while. I feel like shit!" A short session of soaping up and rinsing off followed, and Sam then turned the water off and him stepped out onto the floor. As he toweled off he began laughing to himself as he recalled being at the local pub the evening before, shooting pool with some buddies, and checking out the single women who frequented there. These activities he enjoyed doing with the hope he'd get lucky one night and bring back a horny, half drunk girl back to his place. As it was, he met quite a few young girls at the pub, just of drinking age, who it seemed maybe he'd stand a chance of getting in the sack with some night, but he hadn't succeeded at all lately. He shook his head,"Well, gotta get to the office". He picked himself out a decent pair of pants, shirt and a tie from the closet and proceeded to get dressed for work. "Sure hope Tina is in today, boy I'd love to get in her pants. She really knows what a man likes," he murmured as he put his pants on. His semi-muscular physique continued to show as he buttoned his shirt and fixed up his tie. Sam wasn't a bad looking guy, just unlucky with woman. Sam got himself to work, just making it on time in his neat little japanese sportscar. As he pulled into his parking spot, he noticed his heartthrob Tina making her way across the parking lot. She appeared to be in a hurry as well and she was dressed to show off every attractive curve of her body. He got out of his car hurriedly so he could perhaps get to Tina and chat with her about her weekend before going into the office environment. To Sams surprise, she slowed as she walked in hopes of meeting up with him as well before they got into the building. Tina was a young 22 year old woman with thin blonde hair which ran about halfway down her back. She had an extremely shapely figure, one that made you wonder why she hasn't taken a career in modeling. Her slender body was nicely accented in a short black mini skirt and a lowcut white blouse. She kept her nails manicured nicely and painted a light glossy pink. She liked to wear heels and black stockings with most every skirt she owned and this day was certainly no exception. She knew how much of a knockout she was in that kind of clothing and enjoyed the men watching her at the office. She kept her skin lightly tanned and wore a little makeup just to enhance her facial characteristics enough to not look too made up. As she and Sam got closer to the building, Sam could smell her perfume. "Good morning, Sam is it? Right?" she said. "Good morning", Sam replied,"Your name is Tina from the secretaries area right? Wow, you sure look great today, if you don't mind me saying so." "You too," replied Tina. "Have a good weekend?" she asked, as their pace to the building slowed. "Yes, I did, as a matter of fact. I had a chance to shoot some pool and have some brewskis. How 'bout you?" responded Sam. "Well, I watched some tv and did a lot of reading. Things were pretty quiet . . . too quiet if you want to know the truth," Tina said while looking invitingly at Sam. She was thinking in the back of her mind perhaps he'd ask her out after her remark. "Well, I'd have loved to have had some company over the weekend, maybe we can do something one night this week," Sam said staring down at her shapely legs and fighting an erection which was trying to start. "That sounds pretty good Sam," she answered as they both made their way to the steps to the building. "We can talk about it later, I've got a lot of work to catch up on when I get in and I'm late now," she said. "Me too, and I've got a hell of a hangover too," he said. They both laughed as they went their separate ways into the building. Sam paused. He watched her cute butt, as it pushed out against her skirt, sway down the hall and disappear around the corner. Just then he heard a familiar voice. It was his boss. "Well if it isn't my old friend Sam," the boss, Mr. Flit, beckoned,"you almost didn't make it in again on time." "Well, I'm not late am I?" responded Sam,"and I know I've got those finance reports due to you sir, and you'll have them before lunch." "Okay," responded Mr. Flit,"and keep your mind on your work instead of that young thing that just walked in with you. You'll never get anything done staring at that all day. Your on thin ice as it is." "Yes. Sir. I'd better get busy sir," responded Sam as he went into his cubical. Sam thought to himself,"I'd get a lot done with that young thing...it just wouldn't be work, it would be pure pleasure." He continued thinking and smirking to himself. As the work day went on, Sam managed to see Tina in the company cafeteria. "Well hello again", Sam said. "Hi. Looks like were going to run into each other all day, huh, [giggle]," said Tina. "Yeah, hey when you get your food let's sit over there," Sam said pointing to a corner table. "Okay," replied Tina. Sam made it to the table first and started eating a pre-made sandwich from the cafeteria which didn't taste very good. Looking up, all thoughts of the awful sandwich went away as Tina started her way to the table with her tray of small portions. "Not hungry are you?", asked Sam as she got almost to the table. "Oh this, [giggle], I'm a light eater. I don't want to mess up my figure, plus I'm into aerobics also," Tina replied as she started taking her high heels off under the table. "Is that how you stay in such good shape? What are you doing under there?" responded Sam. "Oh," Tina said shyly, and blushed,"Thanks. I just like to stay in good shape. If I don't, I'd never fit into these clothes. I'm just taking my shoes off. I hope you don't mind. They're murder all day long." Sam had a bit of sweat building in his palms. He couldn't help but look right down her low cut blouse as she said that. "Uhh, yeah . . I mean no . . . I don't mind what you take off," Sam joked, [they both laughed]. "Hey, let's get more acquainted. Let's make a date to do something. Let's go out for dinner and a drink. I know of some nice bars we can go to," Sam asked spontaneously. "Well, I'm not much into drinking or anything," her light feminine voice continued,"there's a really neat carnival in town this year though," she said. "Let's go there if you want. It's the last weekend for it from what I hear and I didn't have anyone to go with." "The carnival...? You mean the one at the pier on the other side of town, carnival?" Sam asked. "Yeah. That one. It's the only one I know of around here. I'd love a guy like you to win me a stuffed animal," Tina said with inviting eyes. Pausing for a moment, because of an erection underway created by the thought of how generous Tina might be if given a gift as simple as a stuffed toy,"Uhh . . . the carnival? You've got it! The carnival it is. Hey, I'm one of the best darned dart throwers you ever saw," Sam stuttered assertively. "They've got plenty of parking down there", said Tina. "Don't worry. We'll go together and I'll drive. I'll pick you up say Saturday at what . . about noon or so? That's plenty of time to enjoy the daytime scenery AND get some nightlife in. Heck we can make a day of it," said Sam. "Oh. Okay. You know where I live at don't you?" asked Tina. "I guess you'd better give me some directions," responded Sam. "Well, I'm at Hillview apartments. Apartment 303. Just knock. Either me or my roommate Glenda will answer the door," directed Tina. "303. Okay. Do you think Glenda would want to go," Sam asked. "She's got a boyfriend and they always go out on saturdays. As a matter of fact that's how I found out about the carnival," said Tina. Looking at his watch,"We'd better finish lunch if we're going to. I have to get back to old grouchy," said Sam. "Oh. I saw him staring at us when we came in," said Tina as she ate quickly. "Probably just jealous. He worked years to get where he is and I'm just out of college running circles around him," replied Sam. "Yeah maybe so. You'd better watch out so he doesn't fire you or something," said Tina. "Well, I think he really likes my work. That's why he gives me so much of it," joked Sam. "[giggle] You can come over and do some of mine. I'm swamped while all of the other secretaries are either on vacation or out getting married," Tina said kind of catching herself on the last part of that statement. Hearing Tina catch herself, Sam hurriedly ate his sandwich. "Well, I guess we'd better get back. I tell you, it's going to be hard working all week waiting for the weekend. I don't know how to say it but I've been meaning to ask you out for a while now," said Sam. "I'm glad you did actually.", Tina said. They both finished eating their lunches. Tina reached down and put her shoes back on and began having some trouble with one of the straps. "Oh darn," she said,"I can never get this thing." "What's wrong?" Sam asked as he looked at her curled back shapely leg. Tina was struggling with a strap on her right shoe. "Can you help me with this? I have to have my shoe buckled and I can't reach this one," she said. "Hey no problem. Glad to help," Sam said as he reached over to her chair. Tina's skirt was pulled up just a bit from her struggling with the shoe. Sam got an eyeful of her thighs as they were pressed tightly together. Sam took his time and managed to buckle her strap. "Thanks," Tina said alluringly. "You did the job. I knew you'd get it." Somewhat aroused from helping dress Tina in this small way, Sam fought back another erection. "Anytime. I've got two strong hands. We're not going to let some old strap bother anyone," joked Sam. They both laughed and said goodbye before going back to their jobs. The work week proceeded with Sam and Tina meeting and talking at lunch each day. On friday all plans were confirmed despite a weather report that talked of a possible storm on saturday night. Storms were typical for this time of year but were very scattered particularly during summer. Since neither party knew of the report, the date was to go on as scheduled. Saturday came. During the week, Sam acquired Tina's phone number and called in the late morning. "Are we getting ready?" asked Sam. "Oh yes. I wouldn't miss it. I have been waiting all week. I guess you should know they are calling for storms later?" warned Tina. She had heard of some predicted rain activity only recently. "Oh that. I've heard the reports. The storms are going to be widely scattered. If it rains we'll just have to go inside. It's no big deal," Sam assured. "Oh good. I didn't want it to mess up our date . . . ," said Tina. "I'll bring an umbrella. Okay?" Sam joked. "I wouldn't want you to get soaked," said Tina. Sam replied,"Stop worrying will you? I'll see you at noon." Sam and Tina were both looking forward to making a good impression on the other. Each prepared to look their best. Sam took a good shower and put on a button-up sport shirt with shorts and docksiders with no socks. He splashed on a little extra after shave and made sure his short wavy hair was perfectly set. He left for the car taking some extra clothes with him in case he sweat through the shirt he had on. It was to be a humid day according to the weather man. He then left for Tinas. At Tina's, Tina prepared for the day as her roommate looked on. Tina wore a pink bikini top and tight white shorts with her bikini bottoms on underneath. She could leave her long hair hang naturally and still look great and that's exactly what she did. She wore some light flat shoes which were a relief to the high- heeled ones she wore all week. Her tanned shape was fitted perfectly in her clothes, in what little she chose to wear. She wanted to maintain moveability for the carnival activity, the fun rides and, aside from wanting to be visually pleasing to Sam, she also wanted to be cool in the hot weather. "There that should be enough for my date," Tina said giving a quick gaze of herself into the mirror. "Who are you going out with again? Sam is it?" asked her roommate Glenda who was busy getting ready for her own date. "Yes. That guy I told you about at work. He's cute. Do I look too skimpy?" Tina asked. "You skimpy? You look great. Where is he taking you?" Glenda asked. "To that carnival down at the beach", replied Tina. "Oh yeah . . . ," Glenda replied. "Hey, have him take you down to the far end of the pier . . . to the rides there. "What's down there?" Tina asked. "Well, they've got some new stuff. I won't tell you too much. I'll let you be surprised," Glenda suggested. "Whatever. All I know is I'll be there with the cutest guy at work and I'm going to have a blast," said Tina. "When's he coming?" asked Glenda. "12 o'clock. I don't know how long we'll be out. We'll probably stay there a while if the carnival is as big as you said," Tina replied. "Well, leave a light on for me if you get back before me. I don't want to be stumbling in the dark. That is . . if you don't stay at his place [she chuckled]. We may see you at the carnival. I had such a good time last weekend, I wanted to go again," said Glenda. "Oh stop it," said Tina as she put some mild makeup on her eyes and lips,"this is our first date and I'm not sure if I want to give him any." "Sure," said Glenda,"you want to get into his pants just as much as he wants in yours." "Well maybe so but if he gets it I'll probably get a bad reputation. You don't know the guys I work around," said Tina. "Hello . . Wake up . . . All guys are like that everywhere," said Glenda. "Well that proves my point. Now stop. I have to finish getting ready. He'll be here any minute," said Tina. "I can't wait to meet him. Hey can I borrow your blue blouse for my date tonight?" asked Glenda. "Yes already. Now stop bothering me," said Tina. "Okay. Okay. You must really like this guy," said Glenda. Just then a knock came at the door. Glenda took the liberty of looking through the viewfinder and saw Sam. "Your date's here," Glenda said in a childish aggravating voice. "Hey, he is cute. I like him already." "Stop it and open the door," said Tina. "Hi how are you," Sam said to Glenda as she let him in. "Is Tina ready yet?" Just then Tina came out of the hallway looking totally gorgeous. "I'm all yours [giggle]," Tina said freely. I'll take it. I'll take it. Boy you look terrific," Sam joked. "Would you two just get out of here and go have some fun . . . . and thanks, Sam, for taking her out. She never goes anywhere. I'll be glad to see her have some fun for once," said Glenda. "Shhh. Big mouth. I'll deal with you later [laugh]," joked Tina,"don't wait up too late for me," she said to Glenda, then turned to ask Sam, "Oh, do you want a glass of ice tea or something before we go?" "Well, maybe real quick. I want to beat the traffic but it is a bit hot already," said Sam. Tina fixed everyone a glass of ice tea and they all went out to the balcony. Once out there some guys from an apartment across the court began whistling and yelling at the girls. Tina became aggravated. "Well, come on, let's go back inside," Tina said. "No wait a minute," said Sam. "Hey guys knock it off!" Sam yelled to the hecklers,"quit bothering them." "It won't work,"said Glenda,"they do this every weekend. You should hear them when we're sun bathing out here." "Somebody needs to go kick their asses," said Sam,"maybe that would stop it." "Hey may-be but thanks anyway. I know if I were a guy I probably go over there though,"said Tina. "Let's finish our drinks and get going." They finished their ice tea and Tina and Sam left for the carnival. Tina made sure she grabbed a light jacket in case they went into air conditioning. Glenda went about her business for her day and her upcoming date preparations. Once out in the car Sam started for the carnival and turned on the cars radio. The radio was set to music and news. " . . . and be sure to take an umbrella if your heading to the beach. The humidity should spawn some thunderstorms around the area late this afternoon," the radio said. "Oops. Did you br- . . . ," Tina started to say. "An umbrella?" asked Sam,"Yes. It's in the trunk. I brought some extra clothes too. Well for me that is. It's supposed to be a bit sticky." "Well I've got this jacket if it rains. Oh let's hope it stays nice. This should be fun. Remember you gotta win me a teddy bear," said Tina. Sam smiled thinking how great it was to finally be taking out Tina. He couldn't help gazing occasionally over at her nice body snuggled in the bucket seat. The two arrived at the pier where the carnival was set up. Off past the carnival was plenty of beach. "It's huge," said Tina. "Yeah. It sure is," said Sam. "We could be here all day. I'd better get a place to park close by in case that rain comes." Sam parked fairly close to the carnival. Looking in three directions, left, right, and ahead on the pier, all they could see were carnival booths and rides. "Glenda said for us to try some of the rides down at the far end of the pier. Her and her boyfriend were here not too long ago and said it was a blast," said Tina. "Well, let's go there first. If you get hungry just say something and we'll eat, okay?" said Sam. "Okay but I had a light breakfast so I'm pretty good for now," Tina replied politely. The two proceeded through a small crowd. Some of the folks in the crowd were wearing i.d. bands on their wrists similar to the ones worn in hospitals. It was a little strange. "What the hell's that?" Sam asked Tina curiously. "I don't know. Maybe those are those kinds of bands where you can ride as many rides as you want all day or something and maybe that's how they know you paid," suggested Tina. "Yeah. Yeah that's it," said Sam, still not convinced. Sounds of gambling wheels, bells, and carnival barkers grew louder as they got further surrounded by the carnival atmosphere. The smell of cotton candy, hot dogs and popcorn were already strong in the air for being so early in the day. The two made their way to the pier where there were plenty of weird fortune telling machines and places to try ones luck at winning a stuffed toy. "Hey here we go," said Tina. "Now's your chance to win me my teddy bear. Oh look at the cute little bears. Oh, I want one." The booth had a bunch of rifles and targets and the prize was a teddy bear if one got three hits in the bullseye. "I'm good at dart throwing, not rifles, but I did promise you that stuffed toy didn't I?" Sam said. He imagined how grateful Tina would be if he won. Sam paid the money and was handed the rifle. He was given three shots for a dollar. Sam took close aim and missed the bullseye each time. "This rifle is screwed up or something," Sam said. "Oh let's just go to another booth....one with darts," suggested Tina. "Wait a minute. Let me try it again.", said Sam, again thinking of how grateful Tina would be if he won. Sam tried again and again. Finally after ten dollars worth of chances, he managed to get three bullseyes out of three. Tina was given the stuffed bear by the attendant. "Alright Sam! Thank you, thank you, thank you," Tina said as her face lit up. She jumped up and down in excitement. She proceeded to walk toward Sam, reached up on her toes and gave Sam a kiss. "Hey for that I'll win you a dozen bears," Sam joked. "Ohhh stop it you silly guy. Can we move on now?" teased Tina. The two moved along the pier with Tina now holding Sams hand along the way and the new bear he won for her. The two watched as other couples were playing carnival games, winning, losing and riding rides. There was any type of game or ride one could imagine just as Glenda had told Tina. Further ahead on the pier was a large ferris wheel. "Can we ride it Sam?" asked Tina. "What? That big ferris wheel up there? Well, if you promise to give me another one of those kisses, you'd can get me on anything," said Sam. "Well come on then," said Tina. Sam bought two tickets to the ferris wheel, the two waited in line briefly, then boarded. Once the ride was under way, they could see a view of most of the carnival and the entire pier of oddities and attractions. Not too much further ahead from the ferris wheel were more games, some strange rides and particularly, a small trailer-like structure with a growing line of people at it's ticket booth. Whatever the ride was it was growingly popular. "Look at that over there!" Tina said. "Yeah I see", Sam said curiously, "I wonder what the big attraction is?" "When we get off of here we'll go there, okay?" asked Tina. "Yeah, okay. Girl, your gonna wear me out before this day is out. I can see that," said Sam. "Oh, don't be a spoil sport. [she laughed and paused] Here. I'll give you your kiss now," said Tina as she gave Sam a longer kiss than before. "There you go again, bribing me with kisses," joked Sam. After the kiss, Tina held Sam's hand again. The ride ended and the two walked hand in hand with a moderate pace to the big trailer. As they got closer, an occasional humming sound would sound, like a large power transformer hum. Also, a sign on the ride became noticeable and was becoming readable as the two got nearer. The sign read "The Switcher." "I wonder what that is," said Sam as they neared the ticket booth for the ride. "I've heard of Scrambler and Twister, but not this." "Yeah me too. Glenda was right about the weird rides. That's for sure," Tina said. They got to the ticket booth and read another sign. It said, "Ride rules: Not responsible for accident or injury. Ride closes at 9 pm. Must be in line no later than 8:30PM to switch back. $10 per person." Curiously, there were a growing number of people with those peculiar wrist bands on in the area too. Sam approached the ticket booth and asked the attendant what the ride was all about. The attendant, a short, fat, sloppily dressed, cigar smoking guy, answered with a pre-rehearsed blurb,"The ride is for two people at a time only. Ten dollars each. You pay me. You each get a numbered wrist band. Once you exit the other side and walk away from the ride, you've got until 8:30 tonight to come back and we'll put you back to normal. Don't loose the wrist bands and watch who you pick for a partner for the ride. Any questions?" Sam spoke up. "What's the ride? What do we actually ride?" "Yeah?" said Tina. "We're not paying for two wrist bands and that's all. What's in the trailer there?" The attendant replied. "Okay. You two are new I can tell. What you do is pick a person who you want to be for the day. You pay me the twenty bucks. We mark the two of you with matching bracelets, then you go into our little trailer over there. BINGO! When you come out..... your each other! Get it? " "HUH?" the two said looking at one another and still holding hands. Sam spoke again,"Each other? You mean the Switcher is a body switcher? It switches people?" The attendant replied,"You've got it. Let's say you and the little lady here want to be each other for however long in the day, here at the carnival, only till were ready to close of course, and go about the carnival as each other . . . You pay me the twenty, you go in, and you have fun all day at the carnival AS the little lady and she as you. We think it's a neat concept and it sure changes the ho-hum carnival full of boring rides. This is an attraction offered at no other carnival in the country I might add. You both need to agree before I can send you in there and it's twenty bucks for the pair of you and it's perfectly safe." "Wow that IS different. I like the idea of it," said Tina,"and it sounds like it could be fun." Just then the humming sound sounded and another couple came out the back of the trailer and walked by laughing enjoyably at the experience. Sam paused. "Fun? For you maybe. I don't know. We'd have to go in together. When we come out the other side, you'll be me and [gulp] I'll be you. I normally don't get scared at rides at these places very often, but that's seems scary to me," said Sam. "What? What's scary about that. I'm standing here looking at you and I'm not scared. Oh come on chicken . . . just for a little while," Tina begged. "Come on buddy. Couples have been doing it the whole week we've been here. Make the little lady happy. Think of it as walking a mile in her shoes [he laughed then looked to Tina] You know the guys are always the scared ones," said the attendant. "A mile in her shoes and everything else too. I don't know," Sam said cautiously. "I've never heard of this. I mean, this isn't like just changing clothes or something," said Sam. "Now come on Sam. It's just a ride... I'll give you another kiss. [she said very sexily] Maybe something else later?" Tina persuaded. Sam thought, looked at himself, then at Tinas petite sexy frame. "Oh alright. I don't want to be a stick in the mud," Sam said,"here's the twenty bucks." Sam handed over a twenty dollar bill. The attendant announced, "Hey the young man's going to do it folks. Have some fun. Oh yeah one last rule. No one leaves the park." He puffed his cigar held in his teeth as he placed a band around Tina's thin little wrist then a band around Sams. "Look the numbers match," said Tina excitedly as she looked at the bands. "That's right," responded the attendant,"you don't get back in with any number but the one you left with. His is 141A and yours is 141B. That's how we keep track. Like I said, it's fool proof." With that the two walked toward the trailer. Tina was leading the way. Sam had butterflies in his stomach. He was about to loose his manhood, and no matter how temporary it was, he was really going to loose his manhood and that scared him. Tina clutched the stuffed toy as they both went into two separate doors and sat down. There were mirrors at each compartment and each saw their normal reflection. The attendant saw the two seated then a voice shouted "Here we go" then a green glow lit all around as the attendant flipped a switch. That familiar humming sound hummed. Sam happened to glance down at his bracelet and at his number 141A. The number blurred away and reappeared to read 141B. Looking further, it wasn't just the band that changed. The wrist the band was around was no longer muscular and hairy. Instead, it was soft and feminine. He looked down and saw Tina's shapely legs, her cleavage and her bikini top which he admired earlier. He stood up and noticed the mirror was now behind him and on the opposite side of the small compartment. He turned to look at the mirror and standing there was the image of Tina. While he appeared to be alone in the room with Tina staring back at him in the mirror, it was his new self he was looking at. He cleared his throat to only hear the sound of Tina clearing her throat. He put his hands up to his face and could see the mirror reflection doing the same. The switch had taken place just as the attendant had described. How strange to Sam. "Okay. You two. Out the exits. Next please," the attendant said. Tina emerged first in Sams body and waited patiently. While waiting she flexed her new muscular arms and rocked back and forth a little. She felt down at the crotch area just out of curiosity. Looking down at the door where Sam would be coming out as her, she finally saw her body slowly come out. Sam looked over as he came out to see his own body standing there looking back. "It worked", Tina said in Sams voice. "Now what? Do we switch back?" said Sam in his newly acquired female voice. "I'm scared to death like this." "Oh come on silly," said Tina. "Don't be a chicken. Hey this is a chance for us to see ourselves from the others perspective . . . literally! Don't you like being in there?" she said. "It's weird. I know that," said Sam. "I looking at you and see me but . . . . I don't know. My queazy stomach went away though." "Lets' go. Let's go see the rest of the carnival. This should be fun," as she took his small hand which was hers only minutes ago. "What do I do with this?" said Sam clutching her stuffed toy. "Oh, [masculine chuckle] that's right, since we can't leave the area to go back to the car, I guess you'll have to carry it," said Tina. "Now I have your body, I have to lug this toy too. Okay," Sam said as he gradually accepted the situation. "What shall we do next?" said Tina. "Well, you've got the money in your right pocket," Sam said softly as the two walked down the pier,"how long are we staying this way, then I can suggest some things." "For a little while. We have all day and it IS kind of fun. It really does feel different, you know, being male . . . down there," said Tina. "That goes double here. I mean I definitely feel different in certain areas. Wait until you have to go to the bathroom?" said Sam. "It's all part of the experience, so experience it. I don't mind if you don't," replied Tina as she stared at her former femininity packed in the tight skimpy outfit she had dressed it in. [looking around up ahead] "Oh, look, darts," she noticed. The two made it through the crowd and stopped in front of a dart game. "Step on up here partner", the attendant said to Tina in Sams body, "win a little something for that little special lady you've got there." "Well I'm not . . . . ," Tina said in Sams masculine voice. "Go ahead honey," Sam said in Tina's old cute persuading voice. "I'll tell you what," Tina said looking down at Sam,"let my little lady see if she can do it," knowing how good Sam was at darts. Sam whispered to Tina,"I don't know how good I am as someone else. I'm a bit uncoordinated and definitely not as strong. How's your eyesight anyway?" Tina whispered back,"Pretty good I guess. Give it a try. I think this is a good joke on the guy." "Well," Sam spoke up as convincing as his female voice would allow,"give 'em here. Pay the man honey," Sam said. Tina reached in Sams shorts pocket and handed over a dollar. The attendant gave the darts to the little lady, Sam. Sam looked at the targets from his unfamiliar angle and leaned his female body forward over the counter to throw the three darts. This leaning position revealed more cleavage and thighs and the attendant couldn't help looking at the view of this girl bent over in front of him. To everyones surprise, even Sam's, Sam managed to get all of the darts in the center of the target, just as he could have done as himself. "I did it. I won," Sam said excitedly while jumping his small body up and down. Sams new breasts although firm, bounced slightly. "Hey lady, you throw as good as any guy I know," said the attendant handing Sam the stuffed toy. "Thank you," said Sam. Tina laughed along and shook her head looking at Sam,"Let's go wise guy." The two continued back to beginning of the pier. They could go in a few different directions and they also saw steps going down to the beach area. "I wonder if we can go down there. I'd love to walk along the beach," said Tina looking down at the sand. "As long as we know how to get back up and we're not breaking those rules. I definitely don't want to wander too far like this," said Sam. The two walked down into the sand without incident. Off in the distance they could see a small beach snack shack and volleyball nets with some games in progress. "Lets' make our way over there and watch the games," said Tina. "Okay," Sam replied,"Let's walk the waters edge along the way." The two walked along the waters edge and small breaking waves toward the shack. The smell of burgers and fries grew strong as they got nearer to the shack. Looking back, they were about a half mile from the pier. "I think we're getting a bit too far, don't you," Sam asked Tina worriedly. "Yeah. Let's stop here. Look up there," She said with Sams voice. They looked at the volleyball nets. "Hey it looks like a place to sit and rest for a while,"said Sam, "I'm not used to walking with your legs, pretty as they may be. I'm getting thirsty. I bet they have beer up there." "Well, those legs are only on loan and you don't get to keep them," said Tina. "You're not thinking of putting beer in my body are you?" "Well, I sure don't want to have to walk all the way back, change bodies again, then come all the way back out here for a beer," said Sam as the two were almost to the shack. Just then a voice from one of the nearby volleyball games shouted,"Hey buddy. We need another player. What do you say." Sam and Tina looked at one another. "Uhmm", said Tina looking at the guys in the game then back at Sam who had just flipped his long hair back out of his face. "Go ahead Tina. I'll just sit on the side over there and rest. Just don't beat my body up too much", said Sam. "You too. Go easy on the beer while I'll play a game. Remember, I don't drink. I don't feel like getting my body back with too many extra calories," said Tina. "Oh don't worry. I think I'll kind of enjoy watching me . . . er . . uh . . . YOU play," said Sam. Tina yelled back to the game,"Count me in guys." Then speaking to Sam, "don't wander too far and remember whose body that is mister. I work hard to keep me looking like that. Sam walked his way over to the shack while Tina went to one of the volleyball courts. Sam walked up the steps to the shack and went inside. There were a few guys already at a table there and even though Sam felt like one of guys, he definitely wasn't. He absent-mindedly forgot how guys would look at him and the thoughts which would race up in their minds at the sight of Tinas old body walking around. Their interests went from watching the volleyball game and girls out the window, to watching Sam. Sam proceeded to daintily walk to the counter and sit on a stool. The waiter promptly went to wait on the young lady. "Where you from gorgeous," said the waiter handing Sam a menu. "What can I get ya?" All eyes were on Sam in his skimpy outfit which Tina had so strategically selected for herself for the day. "Uhh, I'm from over there at the pier and came to watch my boyfriend play ball," Sam said in an unavoidable soft sexy voice. Sam had forgotten all of his money was in his own pockets out on the volleyball field. Searching Tinas shorts pockets he found a twenty dollar bill all scrunched up. Sam looked at the menu as he held it in his borrowed, little, painted hands. He looked at the specials and at the beer selection. "I'll just have a can of Budweiser," Sam said. "You've got it babe," the waiter said. While waiting, Sam walked over near the two guys, too embarrassed to say who he really was, and how Tina could talk him into this crazy trade. Instead he sought to look out of the window and watched Tina play volleyball. From what he could see Tina was playing pretty hard in his body and doing well. She was diving for saves, jumping and slamming shots. She was giving his masculinity a real workout. "Boy this is gonna cost me," he thought to himself. "She doesn't seem to realize how men feel after a beating like that." Just then his beer was ready. "Here you are sweet cheeks," said the waiter. "Thanks," said Sam embarrassed, and most of all thirsty. Sam paid for the beer and without delay went straight to quenching his thirst. He drank half of the cold beer down without really thinking about it. The alcohol's effect went right to his head almost immediately. "Oh shit," he thought. "Tina doesn't drink. I'd better take it slow." Slow as he might, he drank the beer down before it could get even the slightest bit warm. It was indeed refreshing but the effects were hitting him quickly because of his reduced physical size and lack of alcohol tolerance. Still, he asked the waiter for another beer. "Already? You're a thirsty little lady," the waiter said getting another can of beer. The other guys in the room took notice at the rate at which Sam was drinking. "Yes a little bit. It's been a while since I had a cold beer. I think I'll take this one outside and watch the game," Sam said as he paid for the second beer. Sam took his beer and went outside to watch the game. There were girlfriends of the other guys sitting in the sand watching the muscular players. The girls were in thong bikinis and skimpy tops of assorted colors. "Oh come over here and sit with us!" one of the girls said. Sam said "OK" as he staggered a bit to the group of girls. He sat right in there with them. He seemed, at least by looks, to be one of the girls. He continued and played along, "Hi. I'm Tina". The girls were sitting in a semi circle with their feet in the sand leaning back on their elbows. Sam was in the middle of the group, something he'd probably not be able to do if he had bee in his own body. Tina glanced over while serving and noticed Sam sitting comfortably with beer in hand. She continued to play and enjoy herself. "Hey a cold beer. That sounds good", one girl said, "I'll get us all one. The girl got up awkwardly in front of Sam. He couldn't help noticing her huge breasts in the bikini and her cheeks in the thong as they went right by his face. "What a view," Sam thought. "I can't do a damn thing to pick any of these girls up like this though. They have no idea how much I'm enjoying the view." The girl shortly returned with beers for all the girls, including Sam. Sam had slugged down the one he had by then and grabbed the fresh one. He was undoubtedly getting drunk in Tinas body. He couldn't help staring down at the legs and breasts of the girls around him and from a vantage point only a girl allows around other girls. After fifteen minutes and the third beer, Sam needed to visit the bathroom. "I'll be right back, I need to visit the ladies room," Sam said getting up. He made it up the steps into the shack and staggering to the rest room doors, accidently went into the mens room. Sam walked up to one of the urinals and leaned forward pressing his forehead against the cold tile wall. He had indeed temporarily forgotten who and WHAT he was. "Ahh. That cold tile feels good", he said out loud. Sam felt down to the shorts and was unable to find a zipper. "What the hell," he said to himself as he pulled the shorts down to reveal the bikini bottoms. He put his small hand into Tinas bikini bottoms and worked his hand around his crotch area. A guy from the shack then entered the mens room to the sight of this gorgeous girl standing at a urinal with her hands in her pants trying to urinate like a man. He saw Sam drunkenly holding Tinas old body up against the wall and was seemingly looking for a penis. "Hey," the guy yelled,"you're not in the right bathroom, gorgeous." Sam looked up in surprise and slightly sobered from the cold tile on the forehead. "Oh shit. that's right. Sorry fella. I forgot who I was for a minute", Sam said. "Huh? Whatever!" the guy said laughing and looking confused as he watched Sam wriggle out of the mens room and pulling his shorts up. Sam proceeded to go into the ladies room and take care of relieving Tinas small bladder. Just then a clap of thunder hit in the distance and it looked like the game outside was ending due to an upcoming storm. Tina was walking back to the shack sweaty and tired. Tina entered the shack while Sam was staggering from the ladies room. "Look at you. Your getting me drunk. My beautiful body is staggering drunk with you in it! Oh my god," Tina said. "Tina. I couldn't help it. I always drink this much beer with no problem. This is great! Let's stay like this! Wee!" said Sam. "Oh boy. Your ARE drunk. Come on let's get us back to the carnival and back to normal," Tina said as she started to escort her old drunken body out. "I wouldn't go out there. It's lightning", said the waiter. Looking out another window Tina saw dark storm clouds were heading for the distant carnival. "Come on Sam," said Tina. "We had better get back to the pier to change back. This is starting to getting scary." "Okay. Anything you say big guy. Wooo. Check this out . . . ," slurred Sam as he did a sexy walk around the room. "You're drunk. You don't know what you're doing," said Tina as she carried Sam in her strong arms down the steps of the shack. She began heading rapidly across the sand in an attempt to get to the pier before the storm did. "We've gotta get back to the pier and our bodies. You've gotta help too Sam." Rain drops began falling on the area and Sam finally gained some sense as the rain drops hit off of his young face. "Arggg . . . What . . . what are we doing?" he asked as he held his small arms tightly around Tinas strong neck. "We're getting back to the carnival. I can't carry you for too long. I'm too tired from playing volleyball," said Tina. Just then a clap of thunder hit near the carnival and all of the power went out to all of the rides and booths, including the power to the Switcher ride. "Oh no!" cried Tina. "Look up there. They lost power." "Don't worry. They've got to have a generator or something. They can't be in the business of switching people and not having a way to get them back," assured Sam as best he could in damp shorts, damp long blonde hair and a bikini top. They both made it to the steps that lead to the pier and they could here a generator motor running and the humming of the ride in the distance. "There! See?" said Sam,"it's gonna be okay. The ride has backup power." Sam and Tina ran to get in line for the transfer back. Dozens of couples were ahead of them as they impatiently waited their turn. After what seemed to be a half an hour they were next. The attendant, one different than before, was asking to see the wrist strap numbers. Sam showed his. Tina went to show hers but it was gone. "Wrist straps please," asked the attendant. "Where's the attendant from earlier this afternoon?" asked Tina in Sam's voice. "His shift was over an hour ago. Did you pay for this ride earlier? Let me see your wrist straps," said the new attendant. "Well, she, I mean he lost his," Sam said in his soft womans voice,"but I have mine and I swear that's my body she's in", he said looking at his former body with Tina catching her breath. "Sorry. Can't help you . . . Next!" said the attendant. "Wait. I can prove it. I think," Sam said still smelling of beer. "Look lady, we just don't put people where they want without the right matching wrist band. It's our rules," said the stubborn attendant who was processing others while arguing with Sam and Tina. "What are we gonna do?" said Tina to Sam. "We have to find that wrist band, You must have lost it on the beach somewhere, either playing volleyball or when you were carrying me, I guess," said Sam looking like a damsel in distress,"I don't want to have to wear this home," he said displaying his bare flat stomach and cleavage. "Me neither. I want my body back," said Tina. "I'm closing out these last few and getting out of here for the night folks, sorry. They want to close the pier early because of the weather. If you can find the wrist band, we'll be here tomorrow while packing up," said the attendant. They both started to head toward the beach when they were stopped at the steps. "You can't go there folks," said a life guard,"it's too dangerous on the beach right now due to the storm and with no power to the carnival we're asking folks to leave." "But we can't leave. I'm her and she's me," Sam said looking wet and pitiful. "Let's just come back tomorrow morning and look for that wrist band," Tina suggested. "Looks like we're each other for a night." "I'm stuck in here? Aren't you upset?" Sam asked and almost in tears. "What can we do? We have to leave," Tina explained. They both made their way to an almost cleared out parking lot and got in the car. "I can't reach the pedals Tina. Can you drive a stick shift?" asked Sam. Tina replied,"No I can't." "Arrrgggg! Here I am. I sure didn't expect any of this. Let me adjust damn this seat!" said Sam as he scooted his seat to accommodate his short but shapely legs. "I can't go home a female. What will people say when they see me look like this?" "Look. Stay at my place," said Tina,"I've got the same problem. I can't stay alone with Glenda, like this. She'd flip if she saw what she thinks is you staying in our apartment. Drop yourself off at my place like nothing is wrong and sleep in my bed as me. I'll drive my car to your place and stay there as you. NO one will know. Tomorrow morning I'll call you like it's you asking me out again, and we'll go back down the beach to find the bracelet," figured Tina. "Why don't we both stay at your place and make it look like you took me in your room," asked Sam. "Then we'll need to stop at your place for a change of clothes. I don't have any mens clothes to fit me in this body in my apartment," said Tina as they pulled up in front of her place. "I have a change of clothes in the trunk for my body Tina. I'm not thinking straight. I think I'm hungover already. I feel weird like this and I'm cold," said Sam. Tina finally decided, "Look, we need to travel in the morning, so we should stay together for the night. Let's go in and get some extra clothes from my room and we'll stay the night at your place. Pop the trunk and I'll put those dry clothes on you brought." "Ok. Good idea I guess. My head's too messed up. I can't believe this whole thing is happening," said Sam softly. The awkward couple went into Tina's apartment and went to Tina's room to pick out some extra clothes. Sam plopped his female self down on Tina's bed and accidentally saw himself in her dresser mirror as she sorted for some clothes to suffice him. Tina laid down a set of dry short shorts and a top for Sam to immediately change into along with some of her underwear. "Do I change here...in front of you?" Sam asked. Of course. I've seen everything under those clothes," Tina said. "Oh yeah. That's right. Well don't laugh at me ok?" Sam said. "Hey, I'm in the same predicament. If you don't laugh at me I won't laugh at you," Tina replied. Despite the conversation they just had, each one looked in surprise at the other as they saw their own former body disrobe. Sam found it hard to stare at his naked male body which Tina displayed in front of him while Tina gazed openly at both of their naked selves. Tina took particular note of her naked female body getting dressed before her especially at such a rare vantage point. She involuntarily launched a strong erection as she began dressing her male body while still staring at her former female one across the room. "I never knew my breasts were so nicely proportioned to the rest of me," Tina said looking at Sam as he pulled the panties and short shorts on and still remained topless. "Well, I thought you knew exactly how nice you looked," Sam said. "No. I know my legs were nice but I didn't think the rest of me was so pretty from this angle," Tina said. Tina began heavily rubbing her erection and took note of the pleasure she was getting. "What are you doing? Are you doing what I think your doing?" Sam said. "Huh?" Tina said as she rubbed the erection more. "Hey. Stop that. You don't know what your doing. Your gonna . . . ," Sam started saying. "OOOO. I think I like this. Hey we may as well explore while we have the chance," Tina said. "Well, maybe later for me. You'd better be careful there. Your likely to make a little mess in those pants," Sam said as he stood there, breasts out and his hands on his current thin waist. "Well, put the rest of my old clothes on and let's get going", Tina said. "I can't believe this . . . I'm dressing in womans clothes and the worst part is they fit!" Sam mumbled. "I want to get going before Glenda gets home. Gather up my nightgown and extra underthings.", Tina continued, "I'll write Glanda a note as to where I am. She worries you know." Sam grabbed the bunch of lingerie and some other casual clothes she had picked out. "Hopefully, this time tomorrow we'll be back to our own selves again," Sam said. "Yeah. Let's hope so," said Tina. The Two proceeded to get in the car and drive to Sams. Some of Sams neighbors couldn't help notice the bomb shell driving HIS car. They figured he must have really gotten lucky finally, and to pick a girl up AND have her drive him home for the night was the icing on the cake. Little did they know it was Sam in the beautiful body, nor would Sam tell them if given the chance to. The couple got out and entered Sams apartment to turn in for the night. Sam went straight to the fridge for a cold beer. "What are you doing?" Tina asked. "Having a cold one," burped Sam daintily. "Go easy will you. Your gonna give me my body back with a beer gut," Tina said. "Oh relax. This is a rare chance for me to kick back in my own place and not dwell on the girls I'm missing out on," Sam said. "Look at yourself in the mirror. YOUR the girl!" Tina joked. "Yeah. I know. Hey look," Sam said holding a skimpy nightgown in one hand and his beer in the other,"I'm gonna put on this nightgown and watch some TV. You're welcome to grab a pair of my pajamas and join me. No funny business though." "Sounds good to me," said Tina. The two got under the covers and watched the TV. Sam had finished his first beer already and got up for another. Sam thought, "Wow. This is crazy. Me standing here looking like this, and watching my old body laying in bed." Sam asked,"I'm getting another beer, you want one?" "Well, I need something to make me sleepy, sure," Tina replied. Sam came back after a few minutes with two beers. The two watched TV and drank beer talking about the days and events at their workplace and the carnival. Sam was beginning to feel a little tipsy after having half of the second beer. Tina was getting more relaxed as she drank hers. Tina slid her strong hairy legs over to where Sam lay and began rubbing up and down his smooth soft legs. The ones which were hers only this morning. Sams womanhood was responding and with more intensity due to the alcohol in his system. He shrugged off urges to go further with his feelings with Tina, other that kissing her goodnight. He didn't want to get the manhood she possessed any more excited then it was earlier in the evening. Sam reached over and turned off the remote to the TV and hit the light next to the bed. Sam decided to do some off record exploring of the body on loan to him while the lights were out. He found some of the key places woman have which spark arousal. He played beneath his nightgown for a short while unbeknownst to Tina. With the alcohol in his tiny body in full effect, he snuggled up to Tina, with her arms around him, and drifted off to sleep. The next morning came. Tina sprung out of bed and got dressed. "Wake up. Wake up Sam, it's morning." Sam groggily opened his eyes. His hair was a mess from the evenings festivities. "Ahhhh," Sam said pushing his hair back and swinging over the side of the bed,"I had the worst dream . . ." Sam looked down to see the V between his legs and his two shapely legs which the nightgown lightly skirted. He pulled out on the nightgown sightly to see all of the cleavage it contained. Sam now realized he wasn't dreaming. "Come on slow poke. We have to catch that carnival before it leaves," Tina said staring down at a still groggy pitiful looking Sam. "Wow, this has been a blast," Sam said. "I'm sure gonna miss this body." "I have to give you back yours. It's time to get going. Here get dressed," Tina said handing Sam the short shorts and underwear last night. Sam stood naturally slender and sexy as he donned all the clothes Tinas body wore so well. He went into the bathroom and attempted to comb her long hair as best and as neat as he could. "How that?" Sam asked Tina. "That looks pretty good . . . . for a guy in a womans body that is. We don't have much time. Let's go," Tina said. The two got in Sams car. With Sam driving again, they proceeded on the way to the pier where the carnival was. After driving most of the way the pier could be seen in the distance. No rides or stands were obviously present. "Could they be gone already?" Tina asked as she squinted to see more detail in the distance. The ferris wheel was aparently gone as they approached closer. "I think we're in trouble," Sam said nervously. Sam started slowing down in despair. Just then Tina perked up. "I see it. I see the carnival," she said. "Yes. Me too," Sam replied. Sam stepped up the speed again. Getting even closer they could see some of the booths were still being dismantled. Some of the seats to the ferris wheel were still on the pier although they could see packing was well underway. They arrived in the parking lot and quickly jumped out of the car and proceeded to where the switcher ride was still resting. One of the attendants was sitting down drinking a cup of coffee. Sam and Tina went to him. "Sir," said Tina in Sams deep voice,"We were here yesterday. We rode this ride and well, we didn't get to switch back. I mean it really, no kidding." "Uhh, I don't know much about this machine. I just take things and pack them. I can't take this apart until that damn ferris wheel truck comes and gets these last little bits of parts out of my way. [he paused] What are you saying?" the attendant said sipping more coffee. Sam spoke up. "Look. We need to be switched back. Is someone else around who can help operate this thing?" "Hang on little lady. This stuff isn't gonna be getting fired back up. We're moving on. After all it's just a ride," the attendant said. "No it's not," Sam weakly pleaded,"Can you get your boss or something?" "Wait here," the attendant said. Within a few minutes the attendant came back with the man who was operating the ride the night before. "Oh it's you folks again", the boss said, "what can I do for you?" "We're still switched from yesterday. Remember the storm?" Sam said looking very petite in his short shorts. "Oh. You're the folks missing a bracelet. Oh yeah! Someone turned that in to me this morning. What did I do with that thing," the boss said looking through his pockets for a about a minute. "Oh here it is. Yeah number 216B. Let me see your number there little lady, I mean sir," Sam put his little wrist out to show the bracelet. However, it read 141B . "That's not going to work folks," the boss said. "HUH?" said Sam looking at the number on his bracelet. "By the old cotton candy stand. That's where this was found at . . . yep this 216B," said the boss,"I guess that means someone else is out there in the same predicament you're in. You need the matching bracelet for yours. It's our rule. I'm sorry," the boss said. "Shit! That was close," Sam said,"We'll be back. Come on Tina." The two ran down the pier, down the steps and across the sand to the volley ball area. The sand was all smooth along the way from the rain and it was hard to trace their exact path. Once at the volleyball area Sam and Tina got down on their hands and knees to look for the bracelet. "It's got to be here somewhere", Tina said sifting through the sand she played so vigorously on the day before. "Keep looking," Sam said. A voice came out from the snack shack. "What are you two looking for," a young bikini clad girl asked. "Ummm," Sam spoke up," a bracelet. A simple plastic little bracelet," Sam said as he stared at the attractive girl. The girl replied,"We just cleaned up all of the trash this morning from there. It's all here in this trash bag." Sam got up and brushed the sand from his legs. "Keep looking Tina," he said then ran over to the girl in the bikini. "Can I have that bag?" Sam asked. "Sure honey," the girl said. "I'll help you dig through it." A skimpily dressed Sam and bikini clad girl dug through the trash bag while Tina looked through the sand. Tina glanced a few times over to Sam in her body and the other girl and, after thinking a moment, started to sniffle. She obviously missed being a woman. "I have it!" Sam yelled,"I have it! 141A ! Here it is. Ooo I could kiss you." Sam grabbed the beautiful girl and kissed her on her lips. "Hey watch it girlie or Sam or whoever!" the girl said. "Say, what's the big deal over a little plastic bracelet anyway?" Tina hearing the yell was on her way over. Sam replied,"It's my key back to manhood." "What? What the heck's that supposed to mean? Manhood? Honey I don't see any manhood in those shorts," the girl said. "Well, not this minute I'm not. Well not on the outside anyway," Sam explained as best he could looking like Miss America. "Let's go," Tina said grabbing the bracelet from Sam. "I'll see you later gorgeous," Sam said to the girl as he wriggled away. "Girl you're one confused woman," she said. Sam and Tina ran back to the pier. The boss was about to give the order to start dismantling the unusual ride just as the switched pair arrived. "We found it. We found it," Sam said giggling with excitement. "Let me see. [looking at the number] Ok. Come on you two. Ha. I guess you've waited long enough, huh? Get a good look at yourselves. You're going back," the boss said as he powered up the rides circuits. "Go on in the booths." Sam and Tina went into the booths like before and they could hear the man hit the switch. Again, Sam looked down at his numbered bracelet. He took one last gaze at the cleavage and the tightly pressed thighs in the short shorts. He managed to fondle his breasts one last time as well. Sam closed his eyes and waited. In the other booth Tina was closing her eyes in anticipation. The humming began and the long awaited switch seemed to take place. When the humming stopped, Sam slowly opened his eyes. He took a deep breath. He coughed, paused and looked in the mirror. It was him! He was back to his own body again! In the other booth he heard a loud cheer. Followed by clapping. Tina was back to normal as well and obviously saw herself in the mirror. At the back doors Tina and Sam came out and stood looking at one another. Now being familiar with the other thoroughly, the two walked to each other and kissed a long kiss. "Everything OK?" the man yelled in. Breaking from the kiss for only a moment with Tina in his arms, Sam yelled to the man,"Yes. We're back to normal. See you next year." They both laughed and the attendant put the other unclaimed bracelet back in his pocket. Back at Tinas apartment, a similar situation remained unresolved.
