Hudson is fresh out of college and eager to get ahead in government, so when he gets an opportunity to go up to the mayor’s office to help he jumps at the chance. Sure, it’s only redecorating, but maybe a chance meeting could lead to something bigger. And, anyway, the mayor’s sexy assistant, Melissa is there. She’s an amazing woman, with a bright smile and a sexy MILF body.
While redecorating, Hudson accidentally activates a magic statue that causes him to swap bodies with Melissa. Now the statue’s stuck they have to pretend to be each other until Melissa’s husband can fix it. That means going home in each other’s bodies: Melissa to Hudson’s girlfriend, and Hudson to Melissa’s husband. While there, they each get an opportunity to experience what life is like for the opposite gender, and try out their new bodies.
Hudson worked in the mayor’s office of a mid-sized city. He was a newbie there, fresh out of college and earnestly starting his career in government. He was the one people yelled at on the phone, or accused of corruption just for following the rules, or who had to be the one to tell people their various applications were denied. He kept telling himself it would get better because it couldn’t get much worse.
Hudson hung up his most recent phone call and sat back in his chair having just tried to explain to some old lady that her benefits hadn’t been processed because she hadn’t completed the form correctly and then never responded to his previous phone calls. His voice was deep enough that he could sound intimidating on the phone, though when people came into reception and saw him their perception changed.
Hudson was close enough to six foot that he rounded up. What was two inches between friends? His dark hair was kept carefully combed to one side. The polo shirt fit his thin frame nicely only because his girlfriend was good at picking out his clothes. He’d been a complete nerd before he’d met Amber. Now Hudson was still a complete nerd but wasn’t so obvious about it. For instance, he no longer pressed his khakis.
“Hey, Hudson,” Larry said from beside him, “I need you to work your tech magic again.”
“What’s wrong?” Hudson asked, rolling his chair over to look at his computer screen.
“It’s not letting me log into my email.”
“All right.”
Hudson clicked around the screen trying to figure out the problem. He’d become known as the unofficial IT department in the reception area. Though, to be fair, most of the problems were easily searchable online, which is how Hudson fixed them. Whatever Hudson couldn’t fix had to be logged as an official help desk request for the real experts.
“Ah, looks like you’ve tried the wrong password too many times. You’ll have to get IT to reset it.”
“Oh,” Larry slumped. “Can’t you do it?”
“We’ve reached the extent of my magic. Sorry.”
Hudson turned to help an older man at reception, pointing him through to the civic center on the opposite side of the street. As he left, the mayor swept in, busy on her phone as usual. She was impeccably dressed in a black pantsuit, her hair professionally done up.
“Afternoon, mayor,” Hudson said.
She looked up briefly and flashed him the smile he always saw on television. “Good afternoon.”
She proceeded to the elevator and mashed the button. Hudson made himself ready in case she needed anything, waiting for his chance to make himself an invaluable member of her entourage. She was a rising star and Hudson wanted to stay close to her. Hudson also, he had to admit, wanted to stay close to her assistant. He glanced over to the sliding glass doors of the main entrance just as the mayor’s assistant, Melissa, stepped through.
She clicked through the lobby on her high heels, looking organized and together in her navy pantsuit, the white top beneath clinging to her ample bust. Her brunette hair hung down to her shoulders, catching the light and dancing at each step. She was probably somewhere in her late thirties and with a wonderfully mom-ish figure, all grabbable hips and jiggling breasts. Her face was a delight, soft and round, like the girl-next-door had grown up into the mom-next-door. Hudson knew it was wrong of him to think these things but he couldn’t help it. Hudson was a naturally horny guy but never did anything to act on his impulses. Just looked. And sometimes fantasized at home. But that was it.
Melissa flashed him a smile as she passed. Hudson looked at her hopefully and she nodded slightly. Hudson wanted to pump his fist in celebration.
Melissa was cool and down to earth. He’d struck up a conversation with her in the lunch room a few weeks ago, confessing his career ambitions to her. She agreed to help him out whenever she got the chance. Another reason Hudson felt so guilty about fantasizing about her. Since then, they caught up every so often for a coffee or a lunch. Hudson guessed she was kind of like his mentor, giving him tips on how government really worked. That nod she gave him as she passed meant she had something for him.
She stepped into the elevator with the mayor and they held the door open, waiting for something. A few seconds later some workmen pushed a heavy trolley in through the front doors and then to the elevator. An uneven white sheet covered the trolley, the things hidden by it poking up the sheet at odd angles.
They went up the elevator and then a few minutes later Melissa came back down. “Hey, Hudson, can you help me with some stuff in the mayor’s office?”
“Absolutely, Melissa,” Hudson agreed.
Hudson followed her up to the second floor and went through the long hallway to the mayor’s office, Melissa’s heels clicking on the floor at each step.
“So what’s this project? Top secret spy stuff?” Hudson asked.
“Hardly,” she laughed. She had the most wonderful laugh, light and tingly. “Just some redecorating for the mayor. Nothin’ too exciting but maybe you’ll get to see how things work up here.” She had just the slightest hint of a southern accent, which was another thing that made her fucking adorable as far as Hudson was concerned.
The stuff beneath the sheet on the trolley turned out to be some statues and pictures. Melissa and Hudson were supposed to hang the pictures on the walls and set up the statues behind the mayor’s desk within the giant open bookshelf. Hudson guessed Melissa had asked him to do this because the job was really beneath her position but Hudson was just glad to be there. Maybe the mayor would come in and need something and he could stick around as a fly on the wall.
Hudson took Melissa’s orders, shunting something over here and rearranging something else over there. She directed him even as she kept an eye on her phone, typing out important messages to important people as her red nails flashed across her phone’s screen. One day maybe Hudson would be one of those important people.
Standing in front of the window, Hudson picked up the next object, a stone statue about the size of his forearm. One half was carved in the shape of a man and the opposite side was the shape of a woman. A crease in the middle dissected the statue into two halves. As Hudson picked it up, he noticed that the sections wiggled a little. As he waited on Melissa to finish her message and tell him where this thing should go, Hudson jiggled one of the pieces and discovered that it rotated. Being made of stone, it was heavy and the section grated a little as he rotated the top piece until the top half of the man and woman carvings were on completely opposite sides.
“Whoa, be careful with that, hon,” Melissa warned him, setting her phone down and reaching out to grab the statue.
