With the power of the remote in her hands, Courtney started to think about what she wanted to do with it. Initially, she thought about swapping out her clothes with her brother, but put that aside when she thought about the fact that he'd been wearing them and didn't know what he'd been doing. Secondly she thought about swapping out her life with his so that she would be able to take it easy over the week and not have to worry about getting stuff ready for student council or help out their Mom with Thanksgiving Dinner. As she was thinking about what she was wanting to do, she felt the alarm on her watch start to go off. Pulling it into view, she noticed it was time to make her way next door so that she could babysit the Thompson's kids. "Shoot." She grumbled as she turned off her alarm. "I've got to go to the Thompson's. So how about swap something when I get over there? Plus I want to see if there is a range limit. With the Thompson's house across the street, we can see if it works from that range and to see if you can see the difference. From what you showed"
Josh couldn't fault her with her logic and didn't think anything of it. "I see why Jenn likes you so much." He chuckled as he tried to muss her hair, but due to them being the same height because of the swap earlier with Jenn.
Moving out of the way to avoid her brother's grasp, Courtney started to make her way to the coat closet So that she grab her coat and quickly put the remote in her pocket. With the snow starting to fall on the cold and windy November day, she pulled the coat tight around her frame and made her way across the road. In a matter of minutes, she found herself at the doorstep of the Thompson's residence. Ringing the doorbell, like she usually did, Courtney soon found the door being opened by a young woman in her early 30s, dressed in a low cut red top with a flowery skirt holding a small girl around the age of 2 dressed in a pair of animal footie pajamas with a pink pacifier in her mouth.
"Oh, hey Courtney." Mrs. Thompson replied at seeing her at the door. "I was just about to call you to see if you were on your way." Moving out of the way to let her inside. "Come on in, I know its colder that a witches teat out here." Hearing this, Courtney couldn't help but chuckle. Putting her daughter down, Mrs Thompson quickly went over to the stairwell and called out for her husband. "Darren! Courtney is here and our reservation is in 20 minutes."
Almost instantly a gruff voice responded back. "I'm comin' Kelly. I'm comin'." As he was saying this, a lumberjack of a man started to come down the stairs. His brown bushy beard seemed to shine with the oil that was just rubbed in and he was dressed in a nice button down shirt with a pair of jeans.
"Seriously?" Kelly complained at seeing what her husband was wearing. "Your work boots?" She groaned looking at his brown suede boots that seemed to have seen better days. Looking at her phone, she sighed. "You know what screw it, besides its better than those trashy sweat pants you wore to my sister's dinner party. We're going to be late." Kelly turned to Courtney while going to grab her purse. "Mia has already had a bath, which is why she's in her pajamas already. Dinner is in the oven and will be ready when the timer goes off. Also Megan is in the living room finishing up her homework." Looking around she noticed that her husband has already went out the car. "I've gotta go. Oh there are extra diapers in the nursery closet and we should be back by 10."
Waving, Kelly closed the door and went out to meet her husband. "Hey Mia." Courtney cooed as she bent down to see her little friend. "You look so cute in you animal onesie that I can just eat you up." She poked Mia's stomach causing her to giggle. "Lets go see what your big sister is up to, hmm?" Picking Mia up, Courtney started to make her way into the Living Room to see if Megan was finished.
Coming around the corner, Courtney could see a small girl around the age of 7 looked to be finishing up her Math homework while quietly humming a song she had heard earlier as she did. Letting down Mia, Courtney sat down on the couch. "Hey Mith Courthney." She replied with a grin showing several teeth missing.
"Hey there Megan, how's the homework coming along?" Courtney asked seeing the math book on the table. Taking a sit on the empty couch right next to Megan, Courtney placed Mia on her lap. As she was placing Mia on her lap, she felt that Mia had already used it. "Did you just go potty?" She asked her little friend, who just smiled
"Yeth, I'm done." Megan proudly replied with her cute lisp thanks to her missing front teeth and standing up with her arms out stretched. Courtney gave her a look to get the truth out of her, something that she learned from her own Mom."Thorry, I didn't finith it. But can I help you change her? Mommy thowed me how to do it." She asked with a smile.
Seeing Megan all happy about being able to help with something gave Courtney an idea. She thought about what she could swap with her brother. Seeing that Mia was still going through potty training and would probably need to change the diapers for the night, which is something that she didn't mind doing, but it certainly would make the night easier. But seeing her brother dressed as Mia would certainly be hilarious too. On the other hand, giving Megan her brother's math skill for the night would be interesting to see. But, the thought of letting her brother helping her out and also finishing Megan's homework for her would be great too. "Hmm... What shall I do?"
