Chapter Three

The hike continued, but Carly noticed almost none of the scenery they were walking through. She was too fascinated with paying attention to her new body. Or at least one part of her new body. When she had grasped her penis, it had felt good to touch it. It was a new kind of "good" in her mind. Both the feel of the thing between her fingers, and the feeling in the thing between her fingers was completely new. She recognized it as the same thing she probably felt when she was turned on. An erection meant her body was turned on ... right?

But this was a different feeling than what she was used to. What she was used to was for her nipples to tingle and for something deep inside her belly to almost writhe. This was all centered just slightly below that penis. Her mind told her that meant it was in the testicles, but since she'd never actually touched "her" testicles, it felt off kilter, somehow.

Automatically, her hand reached between her legs and found the bulge that she knew those testicles were under. Just the touch of her fingers on the outside of her jeans filled in a blank, and, suddenly, she thought of them as "hers." And by touching them, she confirmed that that was, in fact, where the center of turbulence was in her body.

As she contemplated all this, her senses noted that the stiffness in her penis was fading. She could actually feel it getting softer. It was astonishing. If this happened very often, how did boys ever concentrate on anything?

She realized she'd been walking, but hadn't seen anything. She'd been on autopilot. Everything looked normal. There was her body, walking ahead of her. Right now she thought of that as half her body and half Craig. Still, she couldn't resist admiring her form.

Just like that, she could feel things firming up down there. It was already in "the comfortable position" so she didn't have to do anything, but she could feel the differences happening.

The question was ... why was it happening?

They came to a clearing, where there was a railing that protected people from falling off the cliff below it. The view was spectacular. Carly acknowledged that view, but part of her mind still monitored her groin, and noted that the boner was softening again.

"Let's rest a while," said her father.

"Everybody drink something," said Fran, pulling bottles of water from her back pack.

Carly looked around. There were five other tourists at the overlook. Two were an older couple, who reminded her of her grandparents. Two more also appeared to be together, and were maybe in their twenties. The guy was a hunk. She examined the woman with him and dismissed her as competition, even though they were together. It was automatic. She didn't even realize what she was doing.

The other one was standing apart. He was maybe fourteen or fifteen, too young to be out here by himself. That issue was resolved when the older couple wandered over to the boy and suggested they continue. She decided he must be their grandson.

She looked back at the scenery, her eyes wandering over far away trees, and strata in rock walls that would take days to climb. She saw movement on the opposite side of the ravine, but couldn't determine what it was.

"Shall we go?" asked Fran. "We're having stew for supper, and it takes longer to prepare. I want to get back earlier rather than later."

Carly turned, and saw the young couple were in an embrace, kissing ardently, apparently unconcerned that others could see them. She idly wondered what it would be like to be that woman.

And her penis, which had softened while they rested, sprang back to life.

She waited until they got back, and her mother was involved with putting the stew together. Their dad was sitting in a lawn chair, reading.

"Come with me," she whispered to her brother.

"Where?" he asked, his voice loud.

Carly shot him a glare and announced, loudly, "We're going to the bathroom."

"All right," said Fran, who paid no further attention to them.

She waited until they were twenty-five yards away.

"Your penis won't behave itself!" she hissed.

"What do you mean?"

"It keeps getting hard!"

"I told you it does that," he said.

"You didn't tell me it would do that all the time."

"It doesn't do it all the time," he argued. "Just every once in a while."

"Well it was hard almost the whole hike," she complained.

"Really?" He looked surprised. "That's strange."

She stopped. "Why?" She was suddenly worried.

"It just doesn't do that. Not unless I'm around a bunch of hot girls or something. Like at the pool? If there are a bunch of hot chicks at the pool, in good bikinis, I have to wear a jock strap under my suit."

"Well, there weren't a bunch of hot girls around today," Carly pointed out.

"What were you thinking about?"

"What do you mean, what was I thinking about?"

"I mean what were you thinking about. If I think about hot girls in bikinis, that can give me a boner."

"I wasn't thinking about hot girls in bikinis, that's for sure," she snorted.

"Okay, so what were you thinking about?"

"I don't know. Nothing. We were just walking along. I wasn't thinking about anything."

"Yes you were. You can't help but think about something. For example, I was thinking about Rhonda Tackmeyer, and how now that I'm in your body, I could invite her over for a sleepover, and when it was time to change into PJs I'd get to see her naked."

"You're kidding," said Carly.

"Nope. And that was just one fantasy I thought about. Except that they always get ruined."

"Why?" asked Carly, automatically.

"Because if I had Rhonda over, there would be hours and hours of girl stuff before the naked part, and I have no idea how to do all that girl stuff. It would never work."

"I don't like Rhonda Tackmeyer anyway," said Carly. "She's a slut."

"Which is the whole purpose of getting her naked," said Craig.

"Do I have to remind you that you're missing the part you want to use on Rhonda Tackmeyer?"

"Yes, but I could do everything else," he said.

"Everything else?"

"You know. Lesbian stuff."

"Ewwww."

"I know that's not your style," he said, "but what else am I going to do? I'm for sure not going to let some guy climb between my legs. Now that's an ewwwww thought!"

Carly thought about her very own, very secret vibrating dildo, which was carefully hidden in the very back of the bottom drawer of her night stand, under a pile of paperback romance novels. It occurred to her that that dildo, which she loved to pieces, was of no use to her now whatsoever.

But the thought of that dildo caused the tingle to burst into life in her balls.

She had an epiphany.

It was his body, reacting to her thoughts. It wasn't random at all. He was right. Whatever she'd been thinking about had caused all those boners.

So what was she thinking about?

"We have a problem," said Craig, who had had a sort of epiphany of his own. In bringing the little fantasies he'd had out into the open, where the light of day could illuminate them, it had finally sunk in that if he wanted a sex life ... it was going to have to be that of a girl.

"Shhhh!" she said, holding her palm up.

"What?" he asked.

"I'm thinking."

To his credit, he stayed silent, and let her think. What percolated in her mind was the fact that, for a lot of the hike, she'd been thinking about ... herself. Except it wasn't her any more. It was him in her body. She'd been thinking about her body, and how she liked it. But the brain having those thoughts had been hooked up to a pair of balls.

She'd gotten a boner for herself!

Craig's journey of exploration, in terms of his new body, wasn't as thoughtful as his sister's. That's not to say that he forgot his mind was now inside a female body. Not at all. He just didn't burn as many calories thinking about it as Carly did.

An argument might be made that one reason for this was because, unlike Carly, he wasn't horny all day long. He didn't notice that fact. Being horny was the kind of thing that, because it was more or less constant, became something one stopped noticing. Like wearing clothes. You don't think about how your clothes are touching your body every minute of the day. They're still there ... you just get used to them.

So when that constant, low level testosterone buzz wasn't there any more, it simply removed an unconscious distraction that let him notice other things. Such as how light he felt, and how powerful his legs were. He was more flexible. He felt like he could run faster, jump higher and climb tall things without getting tired at all.

This wasn't wishful thinking. Carly weighed sixty pounds less than her brother. Most of that weight was muscle, so you'd think he'd feel less powerful without sixty pounds less of muscle. But the fact is that carrying around sixty pounds uses a lot of muscle, and muscle, unless it is stretched frequently, begins to tighten up. At some point, there is a zero sum point where, while you bulk up, that bulk isn't as useful as it looks.

But Carly stretched religiously, as do most dedicated runners. And the quality of her leg muscles, along with that missing sixty pounds, made them arguably stronger than his more heavily muscled ones. There was much less bulk around his new waist, and the tightness in his chest and shoulders he hadn't noticed until it was given to his sister, was gone too.

Granted, his breasts intruded on his thoughts a lot. They seemed to be in the way all the time, though he didn't really bump them with his arms very much. They felt astonishingly heavy at first, but he got used to that quickly. The net result was that he felt like this new body was almost magically agile. The hike was amazing, because he didn't tire at all. When they got back to the campsite, he felt like he could have gone miles farther. There was one moment when he took a deep, cleansing breath, just enjoying the feel of it, and was distracted when his breasts seemed to expand. But that passed, and on impulse, he stood flat-footed on one side of the campfire, bent his knees, leaned forward, and then straightened them, leaping with both feet together. He landed clearly a foot beyond the edge of the campfire. He was amazed.

This body had some clear advantages!

The rest of the day was spent in that kind of reflection as well. He did not, in fact, dwell on things, sexually speaking, until it was time to get ready to go to bed that night. He'd only peed once that day, and since they'd been at the campsite when that urge hit him, the camp restroom was handy. This time he'd gone into the female side. It had felt strange, and he'd looked around before going in, as if afraid he'd get "caught" violating the sanctity of the women's john. Then there had been a moment of worry that some other woman would be in there. There wasn't, though, and he relaxed, once he was inside.

He'd peed sitting down plenty of times. That was the only safe way to pee when you had morning wood. Again, his urine ran hot against the insides of his "new" labia. It was uncomfortable in the same way that not retracting his foreskin was uncomfortable. His actions were, therefore, partly muscle memory of the body he was in, and partly his mind telling him something needed to be done. By the time his hand had reached, and two fingers had expertly pushed skin in a way that pulled his labia apart, he hadn't really thought about what he was doing.

It was the first time he'd behaved like the gender of the body he was in.

Getting ready for bed wasn't weird. Their parents, since they'd had showers the night before, just before they'd been abducted, suggested that baths could be pushed to the next night. Another reason getting ready for bed wasn't as weird as it might have been was that they weren't at home, where there were mirrors, and privacy, and light to see by.

In fact, neither youth got into the deep water until they actually crawled into their sleeping bags.

Since they weren't actually acclimatized to their new bodies yet, each just naturally went to the same sleeping bag they'd always used. And an interesting thing happened to them both.

When Carly crawled into her bag, her nose was assailed by the combined scents of her body wash, shampoo, and ... girl.

When Craig did the same thing, his nose detected a muskier, manly scent.

Some scientists have done studies and claim that one reason people aren't attracted toward close family members, as potential sexual partners, is that the scent of a close family member of the opposite sex is unappealing. These scientists estimate that condition exists in as many as two thirds of the population.

Of course that leaves a third of the population that won't find the odor of a close family member to be objectionable.

Twins, as it turns out, are almost always in that third. And in this case, the twins' bodies reacted to the olfactory stimulation in ways that amounted to sensory ambush.

They got horny.

In Carly's case, the all too familiar erection came into raging existence. It wasn't painful, because all she had on were a pair of jockey shorts. She'd thought about that only briefly, because sometimes, when she went to bed back at home, all she wore to bed were her panties. It made her feel deliciously naughty to do that. She kept a T shirt by the bed, and in the morning, slipped it on before she left her room to go to the bathroom.

Craig, however, hadn't been in a perpetual state of heat all day, like his sister had. In fact, he'd never felt the deep, throbbing power of female arousal in his belly. This body didn't have balls, which he was used to feeling respond to a woman, or a thought, or a picture, or a bikini, or a commercial, or almost anything else. It felt like a stomach ache, except it didn't hurt.

It most certainly didn't hurt!

Carly's response was a soft groan of frustration. The fact that her hand went to the front of her jockey shorts was, as Craig had already experienced, mostly muscle memory. When a man has a hardon, it's just natural to touch it. But this time there was no thick denim between her hand and her penis to dull the sensation. And this time there were no family members watching.

This time ... she could explore what things felt like down there.

Five feet away, Craig's hand went not to his missing cock, but to his belly, above where the pleasant ache was. Soft, slim fingertips pulled up the T shirt his mother had given him to wear over his now bare breasts, and traced an irregular circle on the surface of the skin he had just uncovered.

It tickled. It felt good. But it only made that deep, odd feeling expand.

For the first time, he reflected on how his fingers had access to a pussy.

And it was dark. No one would know.

Slowly, the fingers he'd been unconsciously stimulating his uterus with, drifted toward the panties that were almost no protection for an exciting frontier of exploration.

Fran had nodded off and was almost asleep when she heard a soft groan. Her maternal instincts kicked into high gear, which meant that a special part of her brain lifted its metaphorical head and listened, a sort of sentry, peering into the darkness. The rest of her brain went into stasis, ready to drop further into sleep if the sentry assured her everything was okay. If the sentry sounded the alarm, that part of her was already awake, and the rest would soon follow. It was a complicated kind of arrangement most men would be unable to understand, but which every mother develops within minutes after the last, exhausted push in the delivery room.

The sentry detected breathing that was too fast, and an almost silent grunt. Skin rustled against cloth. But nothing sounded alarming. A moan followed, and the sentry tensed. It sent a tendril of warning to her sleeping self, which roused enough to evaluate the information the sentry was providing.

The children were uneasy.

Evaluation took place. That the children were uneasy out in the wild was understandable, under the circumstances. There would probably be a lot of that for a while.

She told the sentry everything was fine, and dropped off into real sleep.

The sentry, having been told that soft moans, and rustling cloth were nothing to worry about, paid no attention as the teenagers five feet away from it masturbated.

Many say that masturbation is instinctive. Any grandparent will tell you about a granddaughter who, while playing horsey by riding on your shin , will unconsciously rub against your leg. Any parent will tell you they've had to tell their little boy to stop playing with himself, only to be told, "I wasn't playing with anything!" The fact is that sexual organs enjoy being stimulated by touch. We just don't recognize that on a conscious level until puberty. Until then, it's simply another part of the body that occasionally needs brief attention. Like scratching. You itch ... you scratch to ease that itch. You don't think about it. You just do it.

But puberty changes everything. When puberty gets going, the itch doesn't just go away, like it used to.

It demands more scratching.

And, under the right circumstances, enough scratching finally eases the itch.

The problem is that "the right circumstances" to Mother Nature, means sexual intercourse.

In times long past, we acted much like we see a pair of dogs act now. If you've watched dogs mate, what usually happens is that the male shows interest. Eventually, he tries to mount the bitch. If she isn't interested, she walks out from under him. If she is, she moves her tail to one side. He's ready, and moves into an instinctive position, whereupon he starts thrusting. He might not hit the target right away, but keeps trying. Once he does make it go where it's supposed to go, things happen quickly. A bulb near the base of his penis expands, locking things in place so that, if she changes her mind, she can no longer just walk away. More instinctive movements happen and, presto, puppies.

With humans, back in the day, it was remarkably similar. A man would show interest. The woman either threw things at him, screamed and ran away, or just hung around. Maybe she smiled, something dogs aren't able to do. Eventually they'd lie down together, something that's instinctive and much more comfortable than standing up. Again by instinct, he'd try to roll on top of her. If she was receptive, she let him. If she wasn't, it was too late to walk away. Either way, he'd begin the same, instinctive thrusting movements that the male dog makes, not aiming, exactly, but just trying. If she was receptive, she was lubricated so that, if he happened to hit the target, he could slide inside easily.

At that point, though, things are different than in the rest of the animal kingdom. Humans evolved to be bipedal, which means that, after the sex act, the female can rise into an erect position and, finally, walk away. But that would allow all that precious genetic material the male just deposited in her to drain out, because unlike other mammals, her vaginal tract isn't horizontal when she walks.

So Mother Nature came up with the ingenious solution of enabling the woman to have an orgasm which, in theory, tires her out so much that she wants to lie there for a while afterwards and just rest. Or bask in the afterglow, or whatever. The point is that while all males have an orgasm that sends the seed of life into the female (or over her egg cluster or whatever), only the human female has an orgasm which is intended to give all that seed time to take root before it drains out of her body.

And that was fine for hundreds of thousands of years.

But then civilization, which developed as a survival technique, started messing with the natural order of things, and developed some rules that were not natural.

And one of those rules was, "You can't just have sex with anybody you feel like!"

Those first rules were along the lines of, "That's (she's) mine and you can't have it (her). If you touch it (her), I'll hit you with this rock."

But pretty soon, people didn't want to carry around a rock any more, and guarding your food and woman was a full time job, so culture was developed so that somebody could stay at the house, guarding all the important stuff there (the food and women,) while you and your buddies went out mastodon hunting, or whatever.

And that led to more rules.

And since I know all this is tedious, I'll cut to the chase and advance a couple of hundred thousand years, where we find ourselves in a culture where not only can you not have sex with anybody you want to, you can't have sex until a specific set of conditions is established, which can take months of dating rituals at a minimum, and marriage at a maximum.

Along the way, somebody figured out that, while you couldn't have sex with who you wanted to, if you rubbed things just right, it didn't matter, because you felt like you'd had sex anyway.

Good news travels, but it also isn't all that odd for people to re-invent the wheel either.

Of course, in the case of Craig and Carly, good news had traveled a long time ago, and both were well aware of the joys, both practical and emotional, of self-pleasure. Both, in fact, engaged in that practice on a regular basis.

But they'd never done it as a member of the opposite sex.

And while it may be instinctive to touch, and rub and try doing things you've heard about, that doesn't mean you'll be any good at it the first few times you give it a shot.

It is that exact phenomenon that led to a mixture of pleasure and frustration that first night, and created the sounds that Fran's sentry perked up its ears at.

Carly, once her hand had dithered a bit, finally reached inside her underwear and grasped her cock. She squeezed it, tentatively, marveling at its texture, and the combination of both hard and soft. She had, in fact, felt one before, but that had been under conditions that were both hurried and frantic. Mark Thompson had more or less forced her hand onto the penis he'd released through the zipper of his slacks. It was after the Sadie Hawkins dance at school, which she'd invited Mark to, thinking he was cool, and handsome, and funny. It turned out he was a prick, both figuratively and literally.

She hadn't know exactly how to jerk him off, having never anticipated actually doing that, but as it turned out, it hadn't mattered. Her few, quick jerks had resulted in a mess being made and she had demanded to be taken home. So she hadn't had a chance to really explore a penis before this. Certainly not with the time and access she now had.

Eventually she lifted her hips and pushed her briefs down, below her balls. She briefly examined them with her fingertips. They felt full and round, and the skin there felt thick and tough. She was astonished at how sensitive they were to squeezing. She plucked at a few of the wispy hairs sprouting from there, and tried to imagine shaving them all off. It had been hard enough shaving her own pubic hair.

Suddenly, she thought of Craig, only a few feet away from her. That bald pussy was his now!

As her hand gripped her new penis again, and started to explore it more thoroughly, she wondered if he was doing the same thing she was doing.

Craig was, in fact, exploring his new sexuality, just like his sister was. He'd tried to get access to a pussy for years, but had never pulled it off. Now, suddenly, he owned one!

He had some theoretical knowledge about these mystical body parts. Gingerly, he let his slim fingers explore, unsure of how firmly to press, as he tried to find the apex of his new sexuality. When his finger blundered into his clitoris his whole new body jerked, and he groaned from a mixture of surprise, ecstasy, and a dash of terror that somehow, somebody would find out he was doing this.

He pulled his finger back, but almost immediately it crept back towards the magic bump. He "knew" girls like to have this place rubbed, so he set about trying to rub it. Unfortunately, his male mind was used to doing things much more firmly than he should have done things, and he pressed too hard. It felt good, but it also felt bad. Two minutes later, he'd found a happy medium, concerning the amount of pressure, and things felt distinctly good.

But that's all it felt ... just good. Really good ... but just good.

It was a lot like that little girl, unconsciously rubbing on grandpa's leg. It felt good, but she didn't know what she was doing.

Craig knew what he was doing. He just didn't know how to do it well enough to actually have an orgasm. In fact, he didn't know what an impending orgasm would even feel like. When he'd been in his own body, he could tell when he was about to pop. He could even slow down or speed up in such a way as to control when he popped.

But this, while it felt good ... was also a bit frustrating.

Then he remembered he had a vagina, too.

His finger left off rubbing his clit, and moved to find out what the inside of a vagina felt like.

Five feet away, Carly was enduring something remarkably similar to her twin brother.

She also had some putative knowledge of how this worked. And she found that gripping her shaft, and stroking up and down felt really good. It was a little amazing, because it was an entirely different kind of good than she'd ever felt before. Again, it had a lot to do with those balls in that full, thick-skinned sack that hung below what she was gripping. But now there was a strange happy feeling inside the penis too. And that happy feeling moved in concert with her hand as it stroked. It was amazing. She'd heard that boys jacked off all the time. Now she understood why. It just felt fucking fantastic!

The problem was, she was afraid the thing would erupt. She knew what that was like too. Mark's stuff had gotten all over her dress when it went off. She'd had to sneak that dress into the washing machine before her mother could notice the stains. Now she had the power to produce that same, viscous, runny stuff that had caused so much trouble before.

She didn't want that to happen. It would make a mess inside her sleeping bag. She almost giggled as she thought that she could blame such stains on previous behavior by her brother, before they were abducted. But if there was as much as Mark had produced, it would make some kind of wet spot.

No, she didn't want it to go off.

But it sure felt good to stroke it.

Ten minutes later she was surprised, because she'd spent much longer stroking her own than she had Mark's. Mark's had gone off almost immediately. But hers did not.

She was also both more turned on ... and more frustrated because she couldn't figure out a way to get relief without making that mess.

Craig was amazed at the feel of the inside of his vagina. It was hot, for one thing, scalding hot. It was tight too, gripping his slim finger firmly. And yet it gave, and flexed as he moved his finger around. He reached deeper and two things happened. One was that his fingertip encountered something knobby and firm. It felt like one side of a very small donut, with a hole in the middle. At the same time, the pad of his hand pressed on his clit, and zings of happiness shot to his nipples. That had happened before, while his finger was mauling the little organ, but only intermittently. Now, this different kind of stimulation was just right to send signals to his nipples on a more consistent basis.

His left hand came up and pushed his T shirt higher, until he could find and pinch one of the happy nipples.

He moaned, softly, and his breathing increased to not quite a panting rhythm. At the same time, the finger inside his pussy curled, and the sensitive fingertip encountered a slightly rough, slightly leathery patch of skin on the top of the vaginal canal.

There were more zings.

For a male, there is only one kind of orgasm. It can have varying levels of intensity, but it all springs from one place. That's the urethra. It gets irritated by the stimulation, and calls for something to soothe it. That something is semen.

But the female's body works differently during sex. Her urethra isn't really involved, except on a tangential basis. Rather, there are nerves inside her vagina that are stimulated, and other nerves associated with her clitoris that are stimulated. There is less information available about the thing called the G-spot, but some scientists believe that is a different set of nerves that are more developed in some women than in others.

The point is that a woman can have different kinds of orgasms, based on which set of nerves is producing it.

A woman's orgasm can be a soft, soothing, tinkling stream kind of thing, or it can be a bone-crunching, being-overwhelmed-by-an-ocean-wave experience. Or anything in-between. A lot of it has to do with her mental state. Sex has just as much to do with the mind as the body, if not more.

Of course Craig did not know all this. All he knew was that doing this or that felt really good, and he was having a blast finding all this out. Which is why he wasn't aware when the combination of things he was doing brought about one of those really soft, really slow, almost lazy kinds of orgasms, completely unlike the electric release he was used to when his penis demanded relief.

But it satisfied his female body in a way that caused him to decide that he'd experimented enough for the night.

After all, he could do this whenever he felt like it now.

There is a peculiar condition the human penis can get into. I'm not sure there's a name for it. But if you stroke an erection long enough, and slowly enough, the mild level of irritation eventually produces a kind of pain that makes one stop stroking. Once that happens, the erection, lacking further stimulation, begins to soften and that lingering pain discourages further manipulation of the penis.

It isn't pleasant. It's not really "painful" but it isn't any fun either. What it is, is mildly frustrating.

And that's how Carly fell asleep ... mildly frustrated.

Day two of the alien exchange program was minutely less unsettling. It is impossible to elucidate exactly how it happened, but each teen adjusted a bit more, accepted the situation a bit more easily, and explored their new bodies with more interest and comfort. That they were twins, and therefore talked to each other about all this, undoubtedly helped.

An example of that was, again, when they went to the restroom the next morning, before they began the arduous task of packing up in preparation for going home.

"How'd you sleep?" asked Carly, remembering her vague frustration.

"Like a baby," he said, happily. "I actually kind of like your body."

"Yours is okay," she replied.

"Just okay? Come on. That's a great body. I worked hard on that body. The babes love that body."

"Yeah, yeah. But I feel like I weigh a ton. And your penis! It's impossible!"

"I've always kind of liked it," he said, bumping her with his shoulder. She felt it between the tip of her shoulder and elbow, and was startled to look down at her sibling. She was used to having to look up.

"Can I tell you a secret?" she asked.

"Sure."

"You swear you won't tell?"

"Don't go all drama on me. What is it?"

"I touched it last night."

"You mean my cock?"

"Yes."

"Good. I touch it every night. It probably would have been freaked out if you hadn't touched it."

"Really?" The surprise in her voice was clear.

"Sure. Beat the shit out of it regularly. It will love you for it."

"Craig!" she gasped.

"You have to start calling me Carly," he reminded her.

"Yeah, yeah," she said. "I have a question."

"Okay.

"When you touch it ... it ... um ... you know ... shoots stuff ... right?"

"Of course. That's the whole point."

She was silent as they walked on.

"Didn't it do that for you?" he asked, as he realized what the context of her question might mean. He always went to bed prepared to catch his spend in some way. Sometimes that meant a wash cloth, or his the underwear he'd just taken off, or even a sock. It occurred to him she wouldn't have known to do that.

"Did you get my sleeping bag all skanky?" he groaned.

"No!" she blurted. "Nothing happened. It didn't do anything."

"You mean it didn't get hard?"

"No, it got hard just like it had been doing all freaking day long. And it felt good to ... you know ..."

"Jack on it?"

"Yes," she said. "But it wouldn't shoot."

"Oh," he said. "I get it now. Don't worry. That's just because you don't know how to do it yet."

"There's a right and wrong way?"

"Of course. You have to have just the right grip, and go just the right speed. There's a point where you speed up, and then, presto, the volcano erupts."

"Oh," she said, mildly disappointed. "So how do I learn all that?"

"I'll show you," he offered. "When we get home, and can get some time alone, I'll give you all the tips. You'll be fine. I can imagine how frustrated you feel. If I don't bust a nut at least daily, I get a little crazy. Sometimes I go two or three times in a day."

"You're kidding," she gasped. Then she remembered how her penis had been stiff most of the previous day, and could suddenly understand how those persistent urges might encourage that kind of practice.

Suddenly, she felt like she finally understood boys a little better. If boys experienced what she'd experienced yesterday ... and last night ... she wasn't surprised at all that they acted like maniacs.

"Carly?"

"You have to call me Craig," she said, automatically.

"Yeah, sorry. I need to tell you something."

"Okay."

"I sort of touched myself ... I mean your body ... last night, too."

"Oh really?" She smiled. That actually made her feel better. "How'd it go?"

"You're not mad?"

"Why would I be mad?"

"I thought you didn't do that stuff."

Craig was in the position many brothers put themselves in, when thinking about their sister. You tend to put your sister on a pedestal, or even in an ivory tower, when it comes to her sexuality. At the same time you think of her as a brat, a pain in the ass, a monster, a tattle tale, or any number of other unsavory kinds of character, when it comes to her sexuality, she is a virgin. Her virtue is unsullied, snow white. She would never think to plunder her tender sex with lusty fingers. And the thought of anyone else trying to do that makes your blood boil.

It doesn't happen to all brothers, but it happens to a lot of them, perhaps even the majority.

Of course while this is happening, the girl is just plain normal, searching for the same things and having the same problems as everybody else. And of course she's aware of her sexual yearnings.

But Craig had never imagined her as being a girl who masturbated. It just went against his inflated view of his sister. Even now that he'd done that to her body himself, it was mildly shocking to imagine her doing it before their bodies were exchanged. Masturbation was, perhaps, the one thing they'd never talked about together.

"Of course I do. I've done it since I was twelve."

"Twelve?!" he gasped. His whole body suddenly felt tense.

"Sure. I learned how in the bathtub, and have been doing it ever since."

"Bathtub? Me too!" he squealed. He didn't notice it was a squeal. His mind was already adapting to his new voice.

"Well, there you go."

"This is weird."

"Well, duh," she said.

"No, I mean I'm not used to the idea of you doing that. I never thought about it before."

"And I never thought about you jerking off in your room before," she said. "But you didn't answer my question. How'd it go for you?"

"Great," he sighed. "I loved it. It's so different. You have all these places to touch, and each one feels different, but they all seem to connect to something deep inside, right here." He put his finger on his belly.

"I feel everything right here," she said, cupping placing her hand low, between her legs.

"Oh yeah," he sighed. "I remember that. But I don't feel anything like that in your body."

"So did you get off?" she asked.

"I don't know."

"What do you mean, you don't know? If you got off, you'd know," she said.

"Something happened that felt really good, but it wasn't like busting a nut," he said. "I was able to go to sleep, though."

"I wish that had happened to me," she said. "I still feel all anxious."

"Don't worry," he said. "Like I said, I'll show you how to take care of it when we get home."

"Deal," she said. "And maybe I can give you some pointers too."

"Deal!" he said, feeling better already.

There was an itch in the middle of her back and she automatically reached to scratch it. She felt still-unfamiliar muscles stretch and then stop. Her hand couldn't reach the spot. All her cherished flexibility was gone. Now Craig had it.
She had to ask him to scratch it for her.

With her own fingers!
