He starts to make decisions for mikes life and mikes girlfriend falls for it. Eventually they both come to terms with their situation and end up falling in love with each other. How Two 16 Year Old

Title: Switched Mike and Gregory, both sixteen-years-old, couldn't be more unalike. Mike was the typical high-school heartthrob, sporting golden blond hair and an attractive face. Gregory, on the other hand, bore red hair, freckles, and what society called an 'ugly' face. Gregory had long harbored a concealed crush on Mike's beautiful girlfriend. One exceptionally strange day, as fate seemed to play a twisted game, Mike and Gregory found themselves in the school bathroom, standing side-by-side in front of the mirror. A sudden flicker of the lights sent shivers down their spines, especially when they saw themselves staring back in the reflection. However, it was not them but each other. In the blink of an eye, Gregory found himself in the body of Mike, the handsome and popular boy he'd long envied. Elation painted his features as he rejoiced inwardly in his newfound attraction. Mike, however, was repulsed and in a state of shock when he realized he was now inside Gregory's body, which he'd always deemed as unattractive. This switch brought a cascade of turmoil down on Mike, the chief of which was the sudden, inexplicable indifference from his girlfriend. She ceased to talk or interact with him in any meaningful way, forgoing their usual lunch dates. Mike, still trapped in Gregory's body, was perplexed and heartbroken. For the first time, he recognized how appearances mattered to people, especially his own girlfriend. He never expected her to be this shallow, ignoring him just because he didn't look attractive anymore. It hurt him far more than he would admit. On the other hand, Gregory, in Mike's body, was having the time of his life. He reveled in the attention from his classmates and, most significantly, Mike's girlfriend, whom he had secretly admired for years. But what warmed his heart most was the newfound friendship of people, the eyes reflecting respect and admiration when they saw him, oblivious to the fact he was not Mike but just a simple, brilliant boy trapped in a good-looking body. The body swap was an unexpected revelation for both boys. Mike learned the harsh truth that some people value appearances over real affection, including his girlfriend. Gregory, though he was enjoying the attention, realized he was only being appreciated for his superficial appearance, not for his real self. Stuck in this unexpected situation, both boys promised each other they would work together to figure out how to undo the swap. Simultaneously, they made an unspoken vow to learn from this lesson, to remember that a person's worth cannot and should not be determined by the mere superficiality of looks.
