I arrived at the golf course that morning still half-asleep and nursing a hangover that I swear was having an existential crisis in the back of my brain. The âCouples Therapy Fundraiser Tournamentâ sign greeted me like a neon advertisement for humiliation, but the thought of the prize money kept me going.
"Hey, Rick!" My voice had an embarrassing squeak to it as I saw my buddy, Mike, step out of his car.
Or should I say, Mike in his wife's voluptuous body stepped out. He had her blonde hair tied up in a ponytail, makeup done so perfectly I half-expected makeup tutorials to fall out of his golf bag, and â oh dear god â a tight golfing shirt that left little to the imagination. His chest bounced with every step like two enthusiastic puppies.
Throw in a short golf skirt and heels, and Mike... er, Michelle, was giving every golfer in sight a premature midlife crisis.
"Hey, gorgeous," Michelle's voice cooed with an exaggerated wink, clearly enjoying my discomfort.
"Could you please, Mike, keep the flirtation to a minimum?" I whispered, feeling my dignity commit social suicide.
"Why? Scared you can't resist my raw sexual energy?â He did a little twirl, the skirt lifting just enough to showcase his new... assets.
"This is agony," I grumbled. "I don't need distractions. We need that prize money."
Michelle leaned in close, breath warm against my ear. "Focus, darling. Just think of the cold hard cash when I'm rubbing my winnings in your face."
I shook my head, trying to dispel the very bizarre mental image. "Listen, do you still have your swing? I donât care what body youâre in as long as you can still play."
Mike flipped a golf ball from one hand to another like a magician performing a sleight-of-hand trick. âWatch and learn, sweetheart.â He sauntered over to the driving range and lined up his shot. The position of his hips mightâve looked absurdly feminine, but the swing was pure Mike.
CRACK!
The ball shot out like it owed Mike money and the driving range was its only escape. I blinked. âOkay, maybe this could work,â I admitted.
Michelle turned to me, batting hisâherâeyelashes. âTold you. Now, partner, whatâs our couple name for the registration?â
I sighed. âHow about âThe Odd Coupleâ?â
Mike chuckled, the sound unnerving but familiar. âA bit on the nose, but itâll do. Letâs wreak some havoc, lover boy.â
As we made our way to the registration desk, I couldn't ignore the number of envious stares Michelle attracted. Even Betty Snodgrass, the perennial lead in these things, was doing a double-take.
We checked in, and the attendantâs raised eyebrow was almost comically skeptical. âYou two are a... couple?â she asked, blinking.
Michelle gave an exaggerated sigh and grabbed my arm. âOf course, we are! Just because Iâm the more beautiful one doesnât mean we arenât madly in love, right babe?â Herâwell, hisâhand rested on my chest, and I couldnât ignore the way his manicured nails dug in slightly.
âRight,â I managed, forced to smile while wondering how long âmadly in loveâ felt like getting stabbed by a French manicure.
As the tournament began, we actually managed pretty well. Mikeâs swings were spot-on, his boobs apparently not obstructing his vision as much as Iâd feared. But the real shocker came when he, or rather she, started flirting with me during breaks.
âSo,â Michelle said, leaning on her club provocatively, her every word dripping with mock seduction. âThink we should 'celebrate' in a hot tub if we win?â
âWhatâs gotten into you, man? Are you genuinely into me now?â I blurted, half joking, half terrified.
Michelle laughed, the familiar, hearty sound mixed with a winsome chuckle. âNah, Iâm just messing with you. Though, if itâs any consolation, youâre handling the complete absurdity of this better than I expected.â
âYouâre not making it easy,â I shot back.
âGood. Then itâs all part of my master plan.â Michelle winked again, and I swear I heard a collective sigh of envy from the other golfers.
By the end of the tournament, we somehow managed to snag second place, enough to ensure our betting pool wouldnât disown us. As we received our prize, Michelle threw an arm around me and pulled me into a tight side-hug, the crowd eating up every forced smile I gave.
âSee?â Michelle whispered conspiratorially, new voice oozing self-satisfaction. âI told you weâd nail it, stud."
I chuckled. âLetâs just never, ever, speak of this again.â
MikeâMichelleâwinked one final time. âYour secretâs safe with me, lover boy.â
And as bizarre, surreal, and twisted as it all was, there was one comforting thought: at least we didnât tie for first. Iâm pretty sure the winners are still working out their body-swap kinks.
And no, that was not innuendo.

And thatâs how my life, once a mundane string of average, humdrum events, turned into a bizarre mix of body swaps, flirtations, and golf tournaments I'd rather not explain in any holiday gathering.

Prompt: Write a story with dialogue where My buddy's wife forced him to go to swap therapy. He went and now heâs stuck in her body. When we heard about the couples tournament we decided to join and pretend to be a couple. I just hope he still has his great swing even with his wife's big boobs in the way and her wide hips. If we win this tournament we could make a ton of money. I was shocked to see my buddy get out of the car with his golf bag. He had his wife's hair tied up unit a blonde ponytail, his makeup was done to perfection, A tight golfing shirt that showed off his new breasts, and a skirt that showed off some of his ass. It was so hot. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to focus with him looking like that. What made it even more strange was that he was flirting with me too. I don't know, but I think he's attracted to me now.
