Garry was meant to be enjoying his newfound youth thanks to Swap Island, but instead he was lying on a sun lounger by the pool, fast asleep.
All he had wanted was to be young again, and when he arrived at Swap Island and ended up swapped into Laura’s young body, he had been thrilled. He’d spent a good while getting familiar with his new body and its curves before eventually wondering what he should do first.
Garry awoke suddenly when he heard the horn of a passing ship. For a brief moment he panicked as he looked down at himself, wondering why he was wearing a bikini. Then it all came back to him Swap Island, the body swap.
“Oh… right,” he muttered, sitting up and stretching.Why was he so tired?
As his eyes adjusted to the bright sun, he looked around. People were swimming in the pool, playing beach ball on the sand, or simply lounging around chatting and enjoying the warm afternoon.
“Hey, sweetie!” a guy shouted. Garry looked around in confusion before realising the young man was talking to him.
“Fancy a game of beach ball?” the guy called.
Garry shrugged. Why the hell not?
He got up and jogged over to join the game. After only a couple of minutes he learned two things: first, he was absolutely terrible at beach ball… and second, this bikini was not very good at keeping his new chest covered. After jumping to try and save a point, he revealed a little more than he intended to everyone playing and quite a few people watching.
Still, Garry ended up having a great day. It was the sort of carefree fun he would never have had in his old body. And he still had a whole week of Swap Island ahead of him.
As he and the guy who’d invited him to play headed off toward dinner together, Garry grinned to himself. Maybe he’d even try a few indoor activities later.
