chapter one: The Wish Or How To Stay calm When You Wake Up In A Different Body
Cassie smith lay in bed late one night. She was on her back, one hand tucked behind her head and the other holding a silver phone to her ear. Her dark brown curly hair is fanning out around her and the blanket's are pooled around her feet.
"I'm just saying that i like Spencer better than Ryan." Cassie says into the phone. At this statment the girl on the other end scoffed.
"You're nuts Cassie! Ryan is so much hotter than Spencer."
"Sorry, Jenny, Cassie, you're both wrong because Brendon is hotter than the whole lot of them." a third voice on the line interjects. Cassie rolls her eyes and the girl named Jenny scoffs again.
"We can't all be Brendon Urie fan's Krissy." Jenny says and Cassie laughs.
"But we can all be Jon Walker fan's right?" Cassie adds and Jenny groans.
"No, just you." she says and all three girls laugh.
"Oh, geeze, it's almost eleven i have to go to bed." Krissy says and the other two girls groan but they let the girl hang up, ending the threeway call and leaving Cassie and Jenny together on the line. Cassie stares up at her celing, a poster of the band Panic At The Disco hung there. Jenny and Cassie end up talking for ten more minutes.
"I wish I could stay up later." Jenny says and Cassie laughs.
"I wish I knew what it was like to be like Jon Walker." Cassie jokes and Jenny laughs.
"Well, best friend forever. I too have to go to bed but I'll call you tomorrow alright?" Jenny says and Cassie responds with an alright before they hang up.
Cassie decides to go to bed as well, no point in staying up when there was no one to talk to. The girl glances at the clock and it reads 11:15, she pulls the covers up over herself and clicks off the lamp next to her bed.
*****
When Cassie woke up the next morning she noticed three things were wrong.
one was that her bed was drastically smaller, more cramped and her bed seemed to have a curtain surrounding it. The girl thought that maybe she was dreaming, or her younger brother had pulled some kind of trick on her. She sat up and her body felt weird, that's around the time she noticed the second thing wrong. Her hair was short, not just kinda short but barely grazing her neck short. That was especially scary considering her hair normally falls down to the middle of her back.
The third and most important change came moments later when Cassie felt an odd stiring in her lap. She threw back the blanket (which she also noted didn't belong to her) and noticed that yeah, she had a penis. And she knows for a fact that she didn't have a penis last night when she went to bed.
Cassie holds in a scream and leaps out of the bed, only kinda hitting her head on the top of what appeared to be a bunk bed. Getting out of the bed only made things worse. She definitly wasn't in her room...she didn't even think she was in her house. Cassie was standing in the middle of an aisleway, four bunks surrounding her, at least she was thankful that she wasn't on the top bunk.
She makes a whimpering kind of noise and it scares her even more because the sound that comes out isn't light and airy as it should be, it's heavy and rough. Cassie's head spins a bit but she wants to make it to the bathroom. She thinks she spots a bathroom door back beyond the bunks and she speeds off towards it, her body feeling drastically different.
There is a bathroom and it's incredibly small but at least there is a mirror. She looks up into the mirror and nothing in the entire world could stop the scream from releasing from her throat.
There in the mirror it isn't her face, not even close because hell, the face in the mirror isn't even a girl. It is someone Cassie recongizes though, she's looking into the mirror at the face of Jon Walker.
Again she makes a whimpering noise and she's watching the reflection, watching as Jon's dark brown eyes begin to water and his lip slips between his teeth.
"Oh, god, oh my god." She's saying too loudly and Jon's voice emits around the small room. She knows that chances are good that she woke somebody up but that's the last thing on her mind. She touches her face...or Jon's face and she doesn't know how it happened but fuck, suddenly she's in Jon Walker's body.
She runs her hands along Jon's face, just trying to believe that it's all real.
"Oh fuck, how did this happen? How the fuck did this happen?" she's crying out but it all comes out in Jon's voice and she feels like she's going to cry.
Suddenly she hears thumping noises and someone is outside the door.
"Jon? Jon? Are you okay?" Again it's a voice that Cassie recongizes, it's Brendon Urie. She can't open the door, she can't see Brendon fucking Urie standing there in his pajamas and pretend like she's not freaking out.
"Oh god." she says because nope, she isn't dreaming and she has no fucking idea what to do.
"Jon?" Brendon tries again and god, she wishes he wouldn't say his name because she is not Jon. She is a teenaged girl from the midwest who has band posters in her room. She is not Jon Walker.
"guys'...I think Jon might be masturbating in the bathroom...and crying at the same time." Brendon says and she can't tell if he's serious or not but she kinda hates Brendon Urie in this moment.
"He better not be! We made that rule for a reason!" She hears another voice outside the door and again it's one she knows, it's Ryan this time. And if she thought it would be hard to come out and face Brendon, it's even harder to come out and face Brendon and Ryan.
Cassie decides that it's time for her to say something, to let them know that Jon is okay...even though she doesn't even know if Jon is okay.
"I'm-I'm fine." Jon's voice sounds shaky and she can't quite breath because she wants her own voice back.
"You sure? We heard you screaming." Ryan says and Cassie brushes Jon's bangs out of her eyes. Her eyes are still locked on Jon's in the reflection but she breaks her gaze and looks down. Her body is very different now. Jon's dressed in a simple t-shirt and dark boxers and usually this would make her giggle but not when it's actually her. Her boobs are gone to be replaced by a flat, only slightly chubby chest. She's taller than she's used to and it still feels insanly creepy to have short hair that only falls down to her neck a bit.
Again there's the whole penis thing which makes her embaressed and scared at the same time. Long legs and large feet.
"Um, Jon, do you think you'll be out soon? Cause i kinda gotta piss." Brendon asks and Cassie's face twists because beyond running to the bathroom she has no other real plan.
"Uh, yeah, I'm coming out right now." She says and she pulls the door open with a deep breath revealing Brendon Boyd Urie and Ryan Ross to her. She's torn between wanting to hug them, or cry to them, or blush and hide in her bunk. In the end she stands blankly in the doorway, Ryan and Brendon staring at her. She only moves when Brendon clears his throat and brushes past her to get into the bathroom. She can't help nor hide the shiver that runs through her from the simple contact.
Ryan doesn't miss it either and he gives her an odd look.
"You sure you're okay Jon?" Ryan is asking and he places his hand on Jon's shoulder. She's freaking out now because Ryan Ross is touching her and that's maybe enough to make her not so scared. She nods but doesn't say anything, not so sure she can speak using Jon's tongue.
"Come on," Ryan starts and he tilts his head towards the small kitchen space. "I'll make you some coffee." he offers and she nods and makes Jon follow Ryan. Five minutes later she's sitting on one side of the booth, Ryan across from her and a cup of coffee in her hands. She doesn't like coffee but she thinks that Jon must so she takes small drinks.
"You look terrible." Ryan says and she looks up at him too quickly because nope, she can't handle insults from Ryan Ross right now. The small hurt must be obvious in Jon's eyes because Ryan's face goes blank for a split second before he shakes his head. "I didn't mean it like that." he states and she nods.
"I know." She says. Cassie's still trying to piece everything together. Trying to figure out how she went from a teenaged girl in Michigan to being a rockstar in god knows where. Cassie doesn't know the next step to take, can't think properly with Ryan's large brown eyes staring holes into her.
She does manage to scrounge up a fact though, the fact that the Panic boys happen to be on tour right now. Cassie is desperately trying not to think about that fact because she can't fathom being on stage with millions of people screaming around her...not to mention she can't play the bass.
The bathroom door clatters and seconds later Brendon is squeezing in next to her, his head falling on Jon's shoulder. Cassie's heart starts beating too quick, these boys can't just do these things to her! She's needs a warning dammit!
"Jon's being quiet." Brendon notes and Ryan nods. Cassie thinks it's funny because they're talking about Jon like he's not there and it's funny because he's actually not.
"I think I'm having a panic attack." She says and it still surprises her when Jon's low voice tumbles out of her mouth. Ryan's looking at her seriously now and Brendon too lifts his head to gaze at her.
"Jon." Brendon starts and his hand slides down to Jon's arm and he gives it a squeeze. Cassie has to breath deeply as not to shudder at the touch. "Don't wear yourself out on our account. Maybe you need more sleep?" Brendon adds and she doesn't think that sleeping will help but maybe she'll fall asleep and when she wakes up she'll be back in her own body again.
"Maybe" she says and instantly Ryan's pulling the coffee cup out of her hand and Brendon is moving out of the booth. His hands are still on Jon's arm and he's tugging her up, leading her back to the bunks where she first woke up. As they pass by Cassie catches a glimpse of Spencer in the Bathroom. That only serves to prove that yeah, she's with Panic At The Disco right now...she's in Panic At The Disco right now.
Cassie lays back on the bunk and Brendon sits down at the end. There isn't much room but Brendon is really small in person. His hand comes out to touch Jon's ankle and Cassie's kind happy that Brendon is just as touchy feely as she imagined.
Suddenly a ringing is heard in the small space and Brendon is digging around in his hoodies pockets before he pulls out a sidekick. It's around this time that an idea hits Cassie, hits her like it should've been extreamly obvious and that's it's been there all along.
"Brendon? Do i have one of those?" she's asking, Brendon looks up from where he's apparently texting someone. He's looking at Jon like he's suddenly lost his mind.
"You know you do." he says and he goes back to texting. Cassie pushes her hands under Jon's pillow and she feels it there, a smooth cell phone. She lifts it out and stares down at it, she's half tempted to go through Jon's text messages and photos and things like that but she doesn't and instead she asks if maybe Brendon will give her some privacy.
Brendon leaves and Cassie opens Jon's cell and she messes up a few times because Jon's fingers are bigger than her's. But eventually she does get it right, she waits patiently as she calls herself.
****
Jon Walker wakes up feeling more rested than he had all week. He thinks it's odd that he's been allowed to sleep in so late, usually Brendon comes in his bunk to wake him, or snuggle, or tell him that Ryan is being mean to him. But none of that happened today, which was strange indeed, not that Jon didn't mind sleeping in.
He opens his eyes and he knows already that something is wrong. He's surrounded by white walls, walls covered in posters of his band and Fall Out Boy. Pete Wentz's face staring down at him. He sits up quickly the dark blue comforter falling off of his body, except...it's not his body.
Jon knows that it's not his body because since when did he have boobs? The boobs are kinda impossible to ignore, they stick out heavy and kinda tight against the dark blue t-shirt that he's now wearing.
Jon takes a deep breath and tries to remain calm. Having boobs is strange but not entirely bad. It's around this time that he notices that his hair is longer, a hell of a lot longer he can feel it soft against his back. Jon's still trying to remain calm as his eyes drink in the room.
It's pretty large, much larger than the bunk he's sure he was sleeping in last night. There's a small pile of clothes on the floor a few feet from the bed, girl clothes by the look of it. He knows he's not in his bunk, he doesn't even think he's on the bus anymore.
Jon allows himself to fall back on the bed for a moment, trying to convince himself that he was dreaming. He gasps lightly as he notices his own face staring down at him from the celing. It's a poster, the one of the Rolling Stone cover. By now Jon's suspecting that whoevers room he is in that person must definitly be a fan.
A scary thought passes through his head. What if he was kidnapped at some point last night? Sleep walked off the bus and got left behind at a gas station or something? It's a scary if not impossible thought, surely Ryan or Spencer or Zack would notice that he was missing...right?
Jon decides it's time to stand up now so he clambers off the bed as quietly as he can because who knows who could be listening? There's a long mirror along the wall next to the door that is closed up tight. Jon catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror...only, it's not himself.
There's a girl staring back at him. She's got long slightly curly brown hair that is hanging down in a ponytail. She looks young and she's pretty with big blue eyes. She does in fact have boobs, because duh, she's a girl but still Jon doesn't understand why he's seeing her when he should be seeing himself.
Staying calm is something Jon is finding hard to do. He's pretty sure he can rule out kidnapping so, now he actually doesn't know what this is because he knows he was Jon Walker when he went to sleep last night. He knows he was Jon in his Jon Walker body last night but there had to be some point where he went from Jon Walker to mysterious blue eyed girl.
Speaking of eyes Jon suddenly notes that he can't see too well. Everything is kinda fuzzy around the edges and that fuzz doesn't go away even after he blinks and rubs his eyes. Jon notices a pair of black square glasses on the little nightstand by the television. He thinks it's worth a shot to put them on. He does and like that he can see again, but this revelation only serves to prove that he isn't himself, he's never needed glasses in his entire life.
The glasses do nothing to clear up where he is but the world does become a little clearer and that's comforting enough. Jon's first thought is about just where his body is at the moment. He's slightly worried that maybe he crossed a voodoo practicer or something like that and now his poor body is in some ditch somewhere.
The second thought he has is to call his bandmates, see if they know what's going on. Unfortunatly for Jon he doesn't have his cell phone, he doesn't even have pants on, just a pair of bright red underwear with black lacy trim...yeah, Jon doesn't like the underwear so much.
He figures he ought to get himself out of the room and explore his surroundings, he's sure if Ryan were here he'd be telling him to stay put for safety purposes. Jon exits the room and he enters what appears to be the back end of a house. There's a washer and dryer next to the door and a small set of steps further on that lead down to a door.
Jon moves on and the backroom leads to a kitchen. He's walking quietly across the tiled floor, his newly acuired feet smaller and lighter than his own. Jon doesn't hear anything nor does he see anyone in the house. Out of the kitchen is a small open hallway that leads to three doors and one doorway.
One door is the bathroom and the other two Jon suspects are bedrooms. He wonders if his captor is in one of the rooms? Perhaps with his body? Jon shudders at the thought of what could be happening if that was the case. He peeks his head into the living room and again no one is around. That only leaves the two rooms with the closed white doors.
Jon's heart is beating quickly as he reaches for the door on the right. He doesn't know what he's going to find but he also knows that he'll never know if he doesn't look. Jon grabs the handle, with his new small girly hands and pushes, the door opens and Jon finds no one in the room. He knows this is the bedroom though because there are various clothes spread around and a well made bed.
He turns to the other door and reaches for the handle, his hands are inches from the handle when suddenly a loud ringing noise is heard throughout the house. Jon's first reaction is that the sound is some sort of alarm to notify his captor that he's escaped. When no one comes barging out though Jon quickly realizes that it's just a ringing phone. It takes his brain a few minutes to gather that he's found a phone, a phone he should be using to call the others.
Before Jon can find the phone the door he is standing next to opens and a tall boy steps out. Jon thinks that the boy is probably about as tall as Jon is normally but not in this body, in this body the boy towers over him. The boy isn't just tall, he's beefy looking too with a broad chest and back and he looks strong and tough with his wifebeater and shorts on.
He's staring at Jon in half surprise through his own pair of glasses.
"Why are you outside my room?" he asks and his voice is sorta tough too.
"Um." Jon's struggling to find the right words. He has no idea who this person is...hell, he doesn't even know who he is. "Phone." is all Jon manages to say. He notices the light voice that spills from his mouth and it makes his heart quicken a bit. The boy's face falls blank before he turns and hands Jon the phone.
"Why aren't you wearing pants sis?" He adds. Jon looks down at himself and he thinks he blushes a faint red but he isn't sure.
"I forgot?" Jon tries and yeah, it's embaressing but at least he knows that this guy is his brother...kinda.
"Some weird number called a minute ago...I anwsered but no one said anything." Jon nods and takes the phone from the boy. He's tempted to call his own cell phone right away but he's not sure what he's going to say, plus The boy is standing next to him still so he can't exactly ask what's happened to his body.
Jon stalks back to the room he came out of and promptly finds some pants to throw on. He decides to examine the room for anything that may have the mystery girl's name on it. He knows he could ask the boy but what's he supposed to say? 'What's my name?' Jon didn't think that would fly.
It takes him five minutes but Jon eventually finds a magazine next to the bed. A little white sticker on the corner with a name on it. The sticker read 'Cassie Smith.' Jon sighed, because of all the girl's he could've turned into he had to turn into one that shared the same name as his ex-girlfriend.
So, at least he knew his mystery body's name. Her name was Cassie and knowing it made things slightly easier but still he didn't know how to make it better. Jon sits on the bed and nervously dials the number. He wonders if the others are awake? If they know what's going on? He dials his own cell phone number and waits nervously as it rings.
It doesn't ring at all, instead he gets a busy signal. Whoever has his phone is using it.
chapter two: The Pretender Or What Can I Do To Make You Believe?
Cassie is very upset that no one anwsered the phone at her house. It's late afternoon now and the girl still doesn't know where she's at so she can't really judge the time by timezones. She thinks that her mom was either working or sleeping and her brother was either just too lazy to anwser the phone or out running the streets of their neighborhood.
She's wondering about her own body. Is it even at her house? She's not sure. A sudden thought hits her hard and scary, if she was in Jon Walker's body than did that mean...did that mean that Jon was in her's? She hopes to god that wasn't the case because her room was a disaster, she had a Panic At The Disco poster hung on her celing and she sleeps in a t-shirt and underwear. No, she doesn't want Jon to see any of that.
Cassie drops the cell phone against Jon's chest and tries to think of her next move. She doesn't have much time to think as Spencer Smith chooses this moment to pull back the curtain of Jon's bunk and peer inside. Cassie doesn't mean to gasp when she sees him, it's just that she's still not used to it yet.
Spencer doesn't seem to notice it though and he's peering down at her with bright blue eyes.
"Ryan said you were having a mid-life crisis." Spencer informs him and Cassie laughs kind of choked off, Jon's deep rumble of a laugh falling from her lips instead of her own.
"It's not a mid-life crisis." she replies, she wants to tell him that there does happen to be a crisis, but she knows they can't help. "It's more like...I'm not myself today." she admits and she's smiling despite herself. Spencer tilts his head to the side before he sits down on the bunk, his butt pressed against Jon's legs and Cassie will's herself not to fucking shiver this time.
"Everyone has days like that." Spencer is insisting and she wants to tell him so badly that no, no one has days where they somehow switch bodies with a rockstar but she can't quite find the words.
"You're right Spencer." She anwsers, she thinks that she shouldn't be making the other boys worried on her account. "Um, where are we anyway?" she asks and she likes the slight rumble that moves through Jon's chest everytime she says something. Spencer looks around like maybe there's a map hanging somewhere, when no map can be found he shrugs a bit.
"Washington I think. I'm not sure." the younger boy says. Cassie's jaw drops because she's in fucking Washington? That's about as far away from home as she can get. "We're heading to Vegas though." Spencer tells him and he's smiling wide and his eyes shine bright, she can tell he's excited to go home.
"Joooonnnnnnn!" She suddenly hears Jon's name being called, she's not used to it, almost doesn't want to respond to it. Cassie hears footsteps thumping around and suddenly Brendon is pushing himself in the bunk, snuggling against Jon's body and jostling Spencer.
Fuck, she can't breath because Brendon Urie's got his face all pressed up against her neck. She's not sure how Jon normally handles these kind of things but she's not about to stop it.
"What's wrong Bren?" she attempts to sound like she's not having some kind of attack. Brendon looks up at her with big brown eyes.
"Ryan is being mean to me!" the younger boy cries and she catches Spencer rolling his eyes.
"What'd he do?" Spencer questions. Brendon looks back at Spencer briefly before he presses his face against Jon's chest.
"He ate the last banana!" Brendon cries like it's the worst thing to ever happen in the history of ever. Spencer makes a scoffing noise.
"Oh, for crying out loud." he states before he get's up off the bunk and goes to find Ryan.
"That was my banana." Brendon says weakly, looking for comfort from Jon but Cassie doesn't think she can do this. She can't hold Brendon while he cries over a banana, not without either giggling like an idiot or having a fangirl induced heart attack.
"It's okay Bren, I'm sure we can get some at the next stop." She's bullshitting because she doesn't actually know when the next stop is or if they're even allowed off the bus. Brendon looks up all big wide eyes and he smiles. His tantrum seemingly over as quickly as it started.
"Thanks Jon." Brendon says and he hug's Jon's body once more, leaving Cassie breathless before he pulls back and attempts to leave.
"Brendon?" Cassie stars.
"Hmm?" the boy responds, he's looking at her and she pushes past the faint blush in her cheek's to ask the question that suddenly popped into her head.
"What would you say if I told you I wasn't Jon?" Cassie is asking, she knows Brendon won't understand the question, knows he think it's some kind of hypothetical thing but she asks all the same. Brendon smiles and runs a hand through his short dark hair.
"I'd say you're silly Jon Walker." Brendon laughs and walks back to the kitchen area once again leaving Cassie/Jon all alone.
Another idea pops into Cassie's head five minutes later as she listens to Ryan and Brendon argue about whose food is whose. She knows who she can call, knows the only person who might be able to handle this kind of situation. Cassie was calling Jenny.
It rang a total of three times before she heard someone pick up.
"Hello?" The voice of her best friend is questioning and Cassie realizes that Jenny has no idea whose number this is.
"Jenny?" Jon's voice issues out of her mouth and shit, how could she forget about that?
"Yeah, who is this?" She sounds supicious like she's two seconds from hanging up and if that happens than Cassie is about two minutes from having another panic attack.
"Jenny, it's-it's Cassie." there's a small silence on the line before a laugh is heard.
"No, no you're not. For one you're a dude and for two..this isn't Cassie's phone number." She states.
"Jenny! It is me! It's Cassie! I know I sound like a dude but something bad happened and now...I am one." Cassie kind of rushes that sentence out so she hopes that Jenny at least caught a bit of it. She hopes that Jon's easier to understand when he's rushing than she is.
"Mmkay crazy person who is impersonating my best friend, I'm gonna hang up now." The younger girl states and Cassie knows that Jenny is going to hang up on her. She need's something, to say something that will prove to the younger girl that she's really her best friend.
"I write porn!" Cassie/Jon yells and there's a silence again on the phone.
"Um, good for you Jon." She hears Spencer's voice issue from the kitchen area. Okay, she need's to start being careful where she says things.
"That's not funny." Jenny is saying.
"But it's really me!" Cassie tries again. "You once lived in Wisconsin, we've met a sexy clown before, I fell in the creek at your aunt's house, I wrote you threesome porn for your birthday and I'm obsessed with Jon Walker." Cassie rambles out facts that she knows only she and Jenny know, inside jokes that they talk about often.
"Holy shit." Jenny whispers out and Cassie is nodding even though the other girl can't see.
"I know right?" Cassie replies and Jenny laughs again.
"Okay, I wasn't sure if it was you but now I am...but still...why do you sound like a boy?"
"I..." Cassie starts, how was she supposed to explain to Jenny that she was now in the body of her favorite rockstar obsession? "I'm in Jon Walker's body." At least it's the truth, even if her best friend doesn't believe it.
"Well, that's a dream come true." Jenny teases and yeah, Jenny's not quite believing yet.
"It's true." Cassie says weakly, she wonders if maybe she should have Ryan or Brendon talk to her on the phone so she'll believe but how is she supposed to explain it to them?
"Pics or it didn't happen." the girl states and Cassie's heart jumps because hello, moron, Jon's cell has a camera in it.
"I'll send you a pic as proof!" she says and Jenny scoffs but agrees in the end and it takes Cassie three minutes to figure out how to properly work the fancy camera and how to send it to her best friend. She ended up sending her a picture of Jon in his bunk and she had also managed to scrounge up a pen and paper on which she wrote 'I am Cassie.'
Jenny called back five seconds after the picture was sent and she sounded terrified.
"Holy shit! You're...You're him?"
"I already told you that Jennifer. Now I need help getting back into my own body."
"What?...I-I how did this happen?" She sounds like she's seeing someone suddenly shitting rainbows as opposed to her best friend is suddenly in a different body.
"I don't know...all I did was go to sleep yesterday after getting off the phone with you and Krissy...and when I woke up I was here...in Jon's body."
"Did you see his dick?" Jenny asks and Cassie is totally caught off guard.
"No! I haven't looked and I'm not going to. Anyway, that's not the point." Cassie tells the younger girl because only she would ask if Cassie had managed to check out what Jon's packing downstairs during this kind of crisis.
"Wait, Cassie...last night right before we got off the phone. Don't you remember what you said?" Jenny is saying like she's had a sudden realization.
"Um, that Spencer is cuter than Ryan?" Cassie sucks in a breath and hopes that none of the guys heard that, she so doesn't feel like explaining that.
"No, not that! The other thing, you made a wish last night." Cassie's best friend says in a Oh-My-God-You're-So-Slow-Right-Now kind of way.
"A wish..." Cassie starts, trying her best to recall what she had said last night.
"You wished that you knew what it was like to be like Jon Walker, remember?"
"Fuck, fuck, I did!"
"Someone obviously got the message wrong." Jenny mutters.
There's a small silence and Cassie feels better now that she's talking to her best friend. Her friend's have a way of making her feel better, even when she's not really herself.
"So, Wait! Oh my god! Have you met the others? Brendon and Ryan and Spencer?" Jenny's rushing out and Cassie laughs a bit, she kind of really loves the sound of Jon's laugh, she wants to do it more often just so she could hear it.
"Yeah, Brendon Urie totally snuggled with me a minute ago." She said sounding kind of breathless.
"Fucking lucky." Jenny says wistfully. "Wait! If you're in Jon's body...where the fuck is your body?"
"Good question...I tried to call but no one anwsered."
"Did you..have you told the other boys that you're not Jon?"
"No, you think I should?" Cassie hadn't even thought about telling the remaining members of Panic At The Disco that she wasn't really Jon. She thinks that she should though because if they're on tour...fuck..she doesn't even want to think about it.
"Well duh! I'm not sure they'll understand but you should still try. You know you can't play bass right?"
"I never intended on playing the bass."
"Oh my god! They're gonna find out you can't play bass and than they're gonna replace you with a new bassist! It's gonna be your fault that Jon get's kicked out of Panic!" Jenny rambles on and since when did the younger girl care about the fate of Jon Walker?
"I need to tell them."
"That you do Mr.Walker, that you do."
Cassie hung up with Jenny and pushed the cell phone back under the pillow. She ran a hand over Jon's face, his facial hair scratchy against his fingers. It was weird to think that she was in Jon's body. Jon was her favorite member of the band but never had she imagined that she would be him.
Cassie/Jon pulled the curtain around Jon's bunk back and she gasped in surprise to see Ryan, Spencer, and Brendon crowding around the bunk. They were staring down at Jon with curious eyes.
"What's up guys?" she tries to make Jon's voice sound casual. Spencer's eyes narrow a bit.
"What do you have to tell us?" Spencer questions.
"Are you leaving the band?" Brendon cries with big brown eyes and his hands up under his chin.
"Why do you think Spencer is cuter than me?" Ryan demands.
Cassie stares at them with with conflicted eyes and tries to think of a way to explain to them what's happened.
chapter three: The Penis Complex Or Talking To Yourself Isn't Just For Crazy People
"You've been smoking pot without us haven't you?" Ryan inquires and Cassie shakes Jon's head.
She's just told them the truth about what happened, how she wasn't really Jon Walker. She tried to tell them that she's just a nineteen year old girl named Cassie who lives in the midwest. They naturally don't believe her.
After she told them the three boys sat in silence. Ryan was sitting in the little armchair across from Jon while Brendon was curled on her left and Spencer on her right. All three of the boys were quiet and had remained that way until Ryan accused Jon of smoking pot.
"I don't smoke pot." She insists. Spencer snorts.
"Of course you do! You're Jon."
"But I'm not!" She complaines. Spencer rolls his eyes and Brendon and Ryan look confused.
"Are you having some kind of episode?" Ryan inquires and Cassie shakes her head, making Jon's long bangs fall into his eyes.
"God, no! Are you three always this hard to talk to?" She's getting frustrated and no amount of adorableness from the boys can stop this. Ryan opens his mouth to say something but Brendon cuts him off.
"I have an idea!" Brendon shouts and Ryan and Spencer Jump and despite her annoyance Cassie smiles because Brendon is just too adorable. Ryan and Spencer are looking at Brendon expectantly and he continues his line of thought. "We give Jon a test about things that only Jon knows and that's how we'll know whether or not he's Jon!" Brendon is saying the idea like it's the best thing ever and he's grinning brightly.
Cassie doesn't think that Ryan and Spencer will go for the idea but they do and the next thing Cassie knows she's being quizzed by three members of Panic At The Disco.
"What's your ex-girlfriend's last name?" Brendon asks and Cassie's eyes go wide.
"What? Jon and Cassie broke up?" Ryan and Spencer exchange looks and Brendon giggles.
"Next question. What's your favorite kind of drink?" Spencer questions.
"Um, I like those fuzzy navals...those are good."
"Okay, either Jon's telling the truth about this whole body switch thing or he's gone completely gay." Spencer laughs and brushes his hand across his face. Brendon laughs and Cassie crosses Jon's arms tight over his chest. She's so not amused.
"Wait, I got another!" Brendon starts "What's Pete call his penis?" He asks and Cassie stares at him because seriously? This is what he wants her to anwser. She's silent as she tries to think of any sort of anwser. "Well?" Brendon's tapping his fingers on the table as he waiting for an anwser from the faux Jon.
"Mini Wentz?" she tries before she breaks into giggles as does Brendon and Ryan rolls his eyes.
"I don't really know what's going on but I...I think he..or she..or whatever is telling the truth." Ryan is saying low and soft and he looks up to catch Jon's eyes. "You can tell...this Jon isn't the same." He adds his eyes flickering in curiosity.
"So, this happened because of a wish?" Spencer says, Cassie can tell that things have gotten a bit more serious. Cassie nods Jon's head and again his bangs push into her eyes.
"That's nothing!" Brendon starts and again he sounds really excited. "There was this one time Spencer wished to be invisible and-"
"Shut up Brendon!" Spencer yells through gritted teeth and Brendon looks wounded briefly before he snuggles into Jon's..or Cassie's side. She cusses as she still can't control the shudder that run's through her body. Brendon does notice though and he's looking up into Jon's eyes with a look that could only constitue mischief.
"So, you're really not Jon?" Spencer presses and she shakes her head, fingers holding Jon's bangs out of her eyes.
"I'm sorry." she replies and she sounds sad, she doesn't like how Jon Walker sounds when he's sad.
"I'm still having trouble believing." Spencer informs them. Cassie runs Jon's hand over her face...well, his face but fuck it, she does not have time for proper terms. She doesn't know how to really prove it to them..it's not like they even know who she is.
"Wait!" she says suddenly, Jon's loud voice filling the room. The other three boys lift their heads and look at her, half scared, half intrigued. "Do any of you have a laptop?" She asks, she knows it's a stupid question, or course one of them would have a laptop. They're rich! They've got enough money to buy and sell people, of course they have a laptop.
Brendon scampers away before he returns with a ruby red laptop. He places it down infront of Jon and he watches her curiously, it seems now that Brendon knows she's not Jon he's taken more interest in her. Cassie is thankful that the laptop is already on because she doesn't want to look stupid in front of Panic At The Disco.
"What are you doing?" Ryan inquires and he leans up and tries to peer over the screen.
"Proving to you who I am." is all she replies as she clicks on something and turns the screen towards Ryan and Spencer. "See, that's me." she tells the two boys as they check out her Myspace page. Brendon makes a whiny noise and leaps out of his seat.
"I wanna see too!" he cries and he's pushing Spencer over making the other boy knock into Ryan and making Ryan get squished against the wall. All three of them are surveying her page and being oddly quiet, even Brendon and even she knows that that is a rare occurance. Suddenly she is very self-concious.
It's not like she's as pretty as any of their girlfriends, or even girl's they meet on a daily basis. She kind of wishes she had chosen a different way to prove her identidy. Brendon looks up and he's just staring at her, like he's trying to see the girl sitting before him instead of Jon. Brendon continues to stare until he smiles at Jon and says kind of creepy and without a hint of pity "You're purrty."
Cassie blushes and is both flattered and creeped out by the odd grin Brendon is giving her.
"Seriously, Jon could've done a hell of a lot worse." Spencer mumbles out
"Okay, so do you believe me now?" Cassie asks, desperate to get the attention off of her. The three boys nod and she thinks that it's staring to get easier for them to believe that she isn't their bass player.
Ryan opens his mouth to say something but before he can Jon's cell phone starts ringing. Cassie doesn't think that she would've even noticed it was his phone unless it was vibrating in her pocket. She looks down at it and the others are watching her, her heart leaps as she recongizes her own phone number.
"Hello?" she asks and Brendon leaning over her and pushing a button on the phone. Cassie looks at him curiously but he just grins and mouths what looks like 'speakerphone'
"Hello?" someone on the other end replies and it's a girl and what's more is that it's her own voice.
"Who is that?" Ryan questions and yeah, she kind of forgot that none of them know what she sounds like. Cassie doesn't bother to anwser Ryan. She's far too thrown off by the fact that she for all intents and purposes is talking to herself. Cassie thinks that this is one of those situations that drive people insane.
"Um, this might sound strange..but I-I think you're in my body." her voice says and Cassie squeaks and hangs up the phone, dropping it on the table.
"Woah! What the hell are you doing?" Spencer is asking as he grabs up the phone. "I'm pretty sure that was Jon...I think." Spencer says as he flicks the phone open and scrolls for the number. Ryan and Brendon are looking between Cassie and Spencer, their mouths dropped open.
"Yeah, it was him....well, me but you know what I mean." Cassie says and she still a little shell shocked because one; she was talking to Jon walker a minute ago and two; she heard her own voice talking to her.
"Why'd you hang up on him?" Ryan asks, he doesn't sound as angry as Spencer was but more confused.
"I don't know...I panicked!" Cassie mutters drawing Jon's knees up to his chest, wrapping her arms around them. "Besides, you can't really blame me when you hear yourself talking to...yourself."
"Yeah, that's some Twilight Zone shit right there." Spencer says and before he can hit the redial button the phone starts ringing again. Spencer anwsers it and again it's on speakerphone.
"Jon?..." Spencer questions and there is a small silence on the other end of the phone.
"Spence? Yeah, it's me...kinda...I-did I get hung up on?" Cassie's voice issues through the phone and the boys are watching her to see maybe if she'll freak out again.
"Uh, yeah, your body kind of panicked." Spencer tells him and there's a broken kind of laugh on his end.
"So my body's there?"
"We're looking at it." Ryan replies and he's staring at Cassie. She's doing better, it's easier to hear herself, at least she knows that her body is okay.
"Can I...can I talk to...myself?" Cassie's voice ask and the girl is relifed that she's not the only one who can't think of the proper wordings for these situations.
"Sure Jon." Spencer says before he hands the phone over to Cassie. The girl doesn't want to take it, can't handle talking to Jon even though she is Jon. She doesn't really want to deal with this situation.
"Um, Hi?" Jon's voice rumbles out, she's sure that that was a stupid way to start but what the hell else was she supposed to say?
"Are you Cassie Smith?" Jon asks and he's getting straight to the point. She pinks at his words slightly but she anwsers him.
"Yeah, I am...and you're Jon Walker?"
"That would be me...or you as of right now." Jon starts and Cassie is still thrown off by the voice that belongs to her. "Do you happen to know just how this happened?" he asks and she was sort of dreading this question..how was she supposed to tell him that it was her fault? That she maybe wished for this to happen.
"I sorta wished for it." She mumbles out but she knows that Jon heard her.
"Wished for this? A wish did this?" He sounds slightly angry and if there were any sort of justice in the world than Jon Walker wouldn't be mad at her.
"Well, I mean that's all my best friend and I could come up with but maybe it isn't my fault. Maybe you guys pissed off a witch or you're an alien or something!" Jon's voice goes a paticularly high pitch that he didn't even know was possible.
"lets not argue." Ryan interjects.
"I'm not mad. I just don't know what the fuck is going on." Jon states and Cassie sighs.
"And I'm just hypothesizing about how this happened...but I'm pretty sure it was the wish."
Cassie kind of forgets that Jon doesn't have anyone to talk to there. She at least called Jenny to get help in this situation and the boys..well, they were his Jenny.
"So how do we fix it?" Jon breaths out but again it's Cassie's voice. Cassie shrugs but Jon can't see it.
"Well, she wished so I guess maybe she could wish again..." Ryan says and he's pretty good at talking like someone isn't in the room.
"Or you could both wish!" Brendon chimes in and again he's pressing himself in next to Cassie, his mouth near the phone.
"It could work..but I wished at eleven, eleven...so we at least have to wait till then." Cassie replies. She can hear herself sighing over the phone.
"What about the band though. I mean we're on tour guys! And as far as I can see it doesn't look like she plays any insturments." Cassie's own voice is raising but that's not unusual considering she can hit some high pitches sometimes.
"He's right, I can't." She replies and she wonders if Jon's weirded out by hearing his own voice.
"Well, hopefully the wish thing will work tonight and we won't have to worry about it." Ryan says and Spencer nods while Brendon is just peering at Jon/Cassie like he's trying to read the girls mind.
"Yeah, but something has been weighing on my mind." Cassie starts and she fidgets in her seat a bit.
"What is it?" Jon asks and Jon's cheeks flush because Cassie doesn't want to say it outloud, doesn't even want to say it to Jon.
"I...is it okay..." she trails off a bit because she just can't! She cannot ask him this question.
"What? Just tell me." Jon requests. Cassie coughs a bit and she thinks that Brendon's laughing at her because she still blushing.
"IsitokayifIseeyourpeenwhileI'minthebathroom?" She rushes it out, she doesn't think Spencer or Ryan hears but she knows Brendon has heard because he happens to burst out laughing and Cassie's cheeks are practically burning and she kind of wants to see what Jon looks like when he blushes.
"Um.." Jon trails off and Cassie works to elaborate.
"I mean I'm not gonna look on purpose but...I've kinda had to pee for the last fifteen minutes and I wasn't sure..." she fidgets again and Brendon laughs harder. Cassie hears herself laughing over the phone line.
"Yeah, it's okay." Jon gives her permission so she practically shoves Brendon away from her and races back to the bathroom, leaving the cell in the middle of the table. "I mean, it's not like I didn't go to the bathroom yet." He says but Cassie doesn't hear him.
So now Cassie's in the bathroom and even though she really has to pee and she has Jon's permission she can't bring herself to pull down the man's pants. She bites his lip and closes her eyes. She pushes Jon's fingers under the waistband of his pajama pants and pulls them down. Cassie doesn't actually think that she needs to push the pants down to his ankles but she'd rather be safe than sorry.
She pulls the boxers down too and she's trying very hard not to look at Jon's...mini Jon but she kind of need's to aim and so she does open her eyes. Cassie hasn't seen many penises in her life but she's seen enough to know that Jon is a good size.
Jon's body is blushing and Cassie is willing herself not to think about the fact that she's seeing his dick. She wraps her hand around it and ignores the jolt that runs through her. She is not Jenny, she will not whack Jon off later. So peeing is harder when you're a dude but Cassie manages and she exits the bathroom after washing her hand because, ew, she does not want to walk around with a penis hand.
She goes back to where the others are and they're still talking to Jon.
"Well, she survived." Brendon laughs and Cassie can hear her voice laughing too.
Spencer picks up the phone and pushes another button, persumably taking the phone off speaker before he hands it over to Cassie.
"Thought you two might want to talk in private." He says and Cassie nods. Ryan slides from his seat and walks back to do whatever it is that Ryan Ross does at two in the afternoon. He's followed by Spencer and Brendon, who actually doesn't look like he wants to leave but he does all the same.
Cassie sits down at the table and her heart is pounding loudly. She's talking to just Jon, she can't believe it.
chapter four: The Rules Or The Test
Cassie and Jon talked for an hour and a half that day. They ended up making a list of rules to follow while they're not in their bodies. This list became known as: 'The Jon Walker/Cassie Smith Rules For When You Suddenly Switch Bodies.' The rules were fairly simple in Jon's opinion.
1.No altering the others apperance unless you have permission.
2.No getting anything permant done to the others body without permission.
3.No having sex with anyone.
4.Once switched back you cannot talk about what you saw or heard. [Cassie thought that that paticular rule was more for her than Jon.]
5.Don't do anything immoral with anyone on FBR. [again that rule pertained more to Cassie.]
So that was the rules and Cassie thought that she could follow them pretty well. The only one that slightly worried her was the doing immoral things with label members rule. If one of them suddenly wanted to make out with Jon's body than who was she to argue?
*****************************************************************************
Jon had to hang up with Cassie..with his friends', mostly because Cassie's brother wanted to use the phone. He almost said no but the boy was bigger and just on this side of intimidating so he gave up the phone with the promise to call again later.
He sat unsure of what to do in the room. It was odd that he dreamed of having a day off but now that he had it, there really wasn't much he could do with it. He was sitting on the girl's bed but he was beginning to get freaked out by his friends and his own face staring down at him.
Jon got out of the bed and wandered to the living room. He could hear Cassie's brother in his room on the phone. He vaugely wondered where these kid's parents were but it wasn't that important to him. Now that he was actually in the living room he could see a variety of photo's hung up on the walls.
Jon moved along studying the photo's. There were pictures of Cassie, fragments of her life that he was observing and he felt like it was a puzzle with pieces missing. The boy than notices the computer sitting in the living room and he figures, well, why the fuck not? So he turns it on.
He laughs just a bit when he see's the background of the computer is a photo of him. He's more flattered than creeped out. Jon notices that the girl's computer is much slower than his own laptop but it's nothing he can't handle. He explores around the computer looking at photo's on the computer, some personal, some bands, some of him.
Before he can explore much more a loud knock echoes through out the house. He finds himself jumping and he turns back to see a door almost directly behind him. The knocking is coming from there and he isn't quite sure whether or not to anwser it. Jon's still on the fence until Cassie's brother stick's his head around the corner, phone stuck to his ear and his eyes looked surprised.
"Sissy, you know Jenny's outside right?" Jon's thrown off because what's with the nickname sissy? And he doesn't know Jenny is at the door, mostly because he doesn't know Jenny. Cassie's brother motions towards the door and Jon thinks that he's telling him to anwser it so he nods and jumps out of the computer chair to pull open the front door.
Jon opens the door and it opens to a long wooden porch. Standing in front of him though is a teenaged girl, with dark short cropped hair and blue green eyes. She's standing with her hips cocked and her hand holding the screen door open.
"Jenny?" Jon tries and he's not quite sure who Jenny is. Sister? seemed unlikely because she didn't look like Cassie or her brother. Cousin perhaps? Maybe just a friend?
"Hiiiii Cassie!" Jenny cooed and she moves inside the house without Jon saying much of anything. The door slams close and the girl's arms are around Jon's neck and a new possibility sudden pops into Jon's head. Could Jenny be a girlfriend?
"Um, Hi-" He sort of trails off because he doesn't know how to finish that sentence. Baby? Bff? Family? He probably should've asked Cassie for a damn guide to the people around her. Jenny releases Cassie's body and Jon just lets the sentence hang in the air.
"Soooo, what are you up to today?" Jenny asks and she's wiggling her eyebrows and kind of bouncing around a bit. Jon doesn't know if this is normal behavior or not. Jon backs up a bit, more towards the computer and shrugs.
"Not a lot...the usual you know?" Jon says and he isn't use to such a light voice. Jenny nods and plops down on the beaten up white couch in the living room. She pats the spot next to her, motioning for Cassie to come sit next to her. Jon nods again and he feels like they're a couple, that maybe this is Cassie's girlfriend and he is so not opposed to making out with a girl when he is one.
Jon sits next to Jenny and he actually feels a little nervous.
"Oh yeah, cause switching bodies with a rockstar is the usual." Jenny teases. Jon's eyes widen and he looks at the girl sitting next to him. The girl knew the whole time? He's thinking now that Jenny is definitly a best friend. He's thinking that because if Ryan ever happened to switch bodies he knows that the first person to know would be Spencer.
"So...you know that I'm not Cassie?" Jon says, he's kind of relifed that he doesn't have to pretend anymore. Jenny nods and she's watching Jon intently, staring at Cassie's face.
"Even if I didn't know I would think something was different." The girl explains. Huh, so Jon isn't good at acting like a teenaged girl, that's something to note for later. There's a silence and Jon doesn't know what to say, he's not that great at talking to strangers.
"So..you're really Jon Walker?" Jenny says, and Jon is nodding. Jenny sucks in a breath and her eyes are wide. "Oh my god really? What's Ryan Ross like?" Is the first question she asks and Jon kind of laughs because it's obvious that she isn't a Jwalk fangirl.
"Like a super emo hippie." Jon kids and Jenny laughs.
"I'm curious. Have You checked out Cassie's business yet?" Jon's eyes go wide. Is she asking what he thinks she's asking. Jenny is watching him again and she blinks a few times before she talks again. "You know her boobs and stuff?" Okay, yeah she is talking about what Jon thought she was talking about.
"Are you...are you her girlfriend or something?" Jon asks, he thinks that this girl could easily overpower him if she wanted to. Jenny laughs loud and long and Jon moves over a little because hi, crazy joker like laugh.
"No, we're just best friends. Speaking of best friends, i need to tell Krissy about this." Jenny says and she pulls out a bright red cell phone that's the same color as Brendon's laptop. The girl opens the phone and looks like she's texting someone. It takes Jon a whole thirty seconds before he realizing what she's doing.
"No!" Jon yells, still not used to his voice going high instead of low. He leaps across the couch and half tackles Jenny into the couch, attempting to grab the girl's cell phone. He's sure he would have it if not for one glaring flaw, his new arms are too short.
"What are you doing?" Jenny cries out from under him. Yeah, he's sure he's straddling the girl but since he's been in Panic he's found that his human boundaries have gone a little lax.
"You can't tell anybody about this!" Jon says in Cassie voice and he crawls up the girl's body finally grabbing her phone and pulling it from Jenny's grasp. Jon's not used to a girl body, so it's only natural that he doesn't notice that he's got Cassie boobs pushed against Jenny's face.
"Not that this isn't nice but I can't breath." Jenny gasps out and she pushes Cassie's body away, Jon fall's back on the couch but at least he got the phone. "Why can't I tell anyone?" Jenny half whines and Jon thinks it's obvious. No one can know because they don't need this getting around on the internet, not like anyone would believe it but still.
"That's not fair! All your friends get to know but Cassie's best friend's can't? No offence but what are we supposed to do if Krissy comes over here? You're not exactly the best actor in the world."
Jon can't quite remember the last time a teenaged girl insulted him to his face. He doesn't miss it.
"And what are you supposed to be? My guide to Cassie?" Jon thinks that Cassie's voice is good for sarcasm. Jenny crosses her arms over her chest and eyes the phone in Jon's hand.
"We don't have to call it that...more like I'm protecting her body while she's away."
"She doesn't trust me?" Jon asks, he's surprised by that because he and Cassie had just laid down some rules, it wasn't like he was going to break them. Jenny shakes her head.
"No, she more than trusts you. That's the problem. But I don't because you're a guy in my best friends body and who knows what kind of perverted things you would do if I weren't here." Jenny explains. Jon's just watching her, this girl, she's really too much.
"Excuse me. You're the one who asked me if i checked her out yet!" Jenny's face blanked and her cheeks flushed just a bit.
"That's because I was sure you did!"
Jon's sure he's not going to tell the girl that he had an accidental finger slip when he had went to the bathroom earlier. She wouldn't believe it anyway.
"I didn't!" Jon says and Cassie's body is blushing, he can feel it hot on her cheeks.
"Whatever, just let me tell Krissy what's going on." Jenny says and she makes a grabby motion for her phone. Jon sighs and he weighs his options. Really would it be so bad if one more person knew? Maybe if this person was as pushy as Jenny.
"Fine." Jon says and he hands over the phone. Jenny grins and takes it and she sends a text message. She laughs but won't share with Jon what she is saying. The girl sends one more text before the cell starts ringing.
"Hi, Krissy!" Jenny exclaims into the phone. Jon rolls his eyes. "What? No, I'm not drunk!" Jenny says a moment later and Jon laughs.
"That's not Cassie...well, it is but I mean it's Jon Walker in Cassie's body."
"Can you put it on speaker phone so I can hear too?" Jon asks and Jenny half glares at him before she obliges and puts the cell on speaker.
"Jenny, whatever you and Cassie are trying to pull it's so not funny." Jon hears a feather light voice echo through the room. Jenny rolled her eyes.
"It's not a joke Krissy. I'm for real, Cassie switched bodies with Jon Walker." Jon heard laughing from the girl that was named Krissy. Jon had two options, he could listen to the back and forth between the two girls or he could just speak up now and do his best to make Krissy believe him.
"It's true though." Jon says, Cassie's voice washing around the room. Krissy makes a noise like she doesn't believe Cassie either and why should she? It was hard enough for Jon to believe and he was the one it was happening to.
"Look, Krissy just come over here and you'll see that it's not Cassie. Jon's not a good actor." Jenny tells the other girl and again Krissy makes a soft noise but she agrees and they hang up. Again Jon is left with Jenny. There's a silence between the two of them before Jenny looks at Jon with curious eyes.
"We should make out." she tells him, Jon must be getting used to this girl because he isn't surprised.
"I don't think that's what you normally would do with Cassie." Jon replies even though he doesn't know what Cassie normally does. Jenny pulls a face.
"It totally is! We make out all the time! We have a very open friendship." Jenny explains, Jon's scanning the room trying to plot an exit stragety if he has to.
It turns out that he doesn't have to though because at that moment there is a knock on the door and Jon races over to anwser, leaving Jenny on the couch making kissey faces. Jon opens the door and this time a very tall blonde girl is standing there. Her blonde hair in perfect curls around her face. Her hair is short too but not as short as Jenny's.
Jon is only assuming that this girl is Krissy since he doesn't know what Krissy looks like. "Krissy?" he tries and the blonde girl gives a fake laugh.
"Very funny Cassie." She says and Jon's sure it is Krissy, he recongizes the voice. He moves aside and lets the blonde girl come inside.
"Krissy!" Jenny exclaims when she see's the tall girl. "Krissy, please tell Jon that Cassie and I make out on a daily basis!" Jenny says, motioning between herself and Cassie's body.
"Urhm." Krissy starts, it's obvious that she doesn't really know what's going on. "I don't want to play this game anymore." Krissy says sounding frustrated as she drops down on the other end of the long winding couch.
"It's not a game though...it'd be easier if it was." Jon says. Jon watches as Krissy crosses her legs and she looks like she's thinking. She sighs lightly before she pushes her square framed glasses up her nose.
"Okay, lets say I'm going along with this...I want to ask 'Jon' here a few questions." Krissy explains, slow like maybe Cassie/Jon and Jenny wouldn't get it.
"Ask him stuff that only Cassie would know and he won't know it so than that's proof that he's not Cassie." Jenny tells her and she actually looks excited. It's at this point that Jon is reminded of Brendon. Krissy nods and clears her throat. Jon moves and sits between the two girls, his attention on Krissy.
"Alright an easy one. What's your favorite Fall Out Boy song?" The girl asks. Jon fidgets in his seat and tries to think of his own anwser...he prays that he and Cassie don't have the same tastes in songs.
"I like Chicago Is So Two Years Ago." Jon anwsers thruthfully and Krissy sighs and Jenny giggles. Jon doesn't think he did so well proving that he wasn't Cassie.
'What's 'Slow Motion' about?" Krissy asks and Jon just quirks his mouth and tries to figure out how that question makes any sense.
"I don't know what that is." Krissy made a shocked face.
"She's really commited." The girl notes.
"What's your favorite slash pairing?" Jenny asks and again it's a confusing question. Jon isn't sure why Jenny is even asking him questions, she already knows that he's not Cassie.
"Is slash that...that fanfiction stuff?" Jon replies, he doesn't even want to think about the fact that the girl in his body likes fanfiction. Jenny grins and nods and Jon sighs and is so, so tempted to call Cassie and add some sort of rule that states that she will not act out or read any fanfic on the bus.
"Oh, wait, look Krissy! Cassie sent me this picture from Jon's cell phone." Jenny says suddenly and Jon is thinking that maybe it would've been a good idea to show her the picture from the beginning.
"Wait, I want to see too." Jon says and he follows Jenny's phone over to Krissy where the dark haired girl is showing the blonde haired girl the picture. Jon leans over Krissy side and checks out the picture. It is a picture of him, granted he is looking shabby but it's him and he's in his bunk holding a piece of paper proclaiming that he is Cassie.
There's a silence and Jenny is staring at Krissy expectantly while Jon is wanting to be back in his body, he's never wanted something so badly in his life. "Not doctured?" Krissy breaths out shakily.
"Not doctured." Jenny responds and Krissy turns slightly and looks at Jon whose face is too close to hers and she makes this kind of choking noise that Jon only hears when Ryan see's a scarf he really, really likes.
"Jenny..." Krissy starts, she's whispering like Jon isn't there. "Jon Walker is like three inches from my face." she finishes and you would think that by now Jon would be used to it, used to the fans but he isn't, he still finds it all adorable and endearing and he likes to try to remember back when he got excited by meeting people.
It take all of three minutes for Krissy to come to terms with the bodyswap crisis, as it is being called. Jenny and Krissy both decide to spend the night at Cassie's house because they want to be here when Cassie switches back to herself.
*****************************************************************************
It's eleven at night when the remaining three members of Panic At The Disco begin to surround her. It starts with Ryan, he sits by Jon's body, watching him intently with warm brown eyes. By the time it reaches five minutes after eleven Spencer is watching her too. He's less obvious then Ryan but he is sitting on the counter in the kitchen area pretending to read a magazine. By eleven o' nine Brendon is scampering to where she is and staring at her with wide, not so subtle eyes.
Cassie is trying really hard not to lose it but she can't handle being watched by all three of them at the same time. She excuses herself and pushes back to the bunks, falling into Jon's, his cell phone in hand so she doesn't lose the track of time.
She can hear footsteps but she had pulled the curtain around the bunk so they couldn't watch her like she was some fucking attraction. She watches the little digital clock flick over to eleven ten. Cassie swallows hard, god, she just wants this to work. She can't say that it isn't a little fun being around Panic but she knows it isn't right to just be in someone else's body.
The clock flips to eleven eleven and Cassie closes her eyes and makes the wish. "I wish I was back in my own body." She whispers but loud enough for the others to hear. She's not really that tired but the stress of the day has been enough to make her want to sleep, also the fact that everyone is waiting to see if the wish will work is enough to make her force sleep.
chapter five: The Game Where Only Brendon Urie Wins Or Brendon Urie's Magical Ass
That night Cassie dreamed of being on stage all alone. Millions of people watching her, their faces blurry but they were screaming. Screaming for her to do something, something she just couldn't do. She can see Brendon off to the side and he's watching her and laughing like he finds it all incredibly funny. The dream ended with Cassie seeing herself in the front row, eyes wide and watching and all she wants to do is go back but she can't. Something won't let her.
Cassie wakes with a start and she falls out of bed with a loud thump. Her eyes crack open and her heart drops to her feet. She's still here, still in the Panic bus. She hates the fact that she's upset by that. Cassie pushes Jon's bangs out of his face and she's sweating from the dream. She's also startled by a big pair of brown eyes staring intently at her from the bunk across from Jon's.
"I remember when I first fell out of the bunk." Brendon's voice issues warm and sleepy. Cassie sighs and Jon's voice slips out soft.
Cassie can't believe that the wish didn't work. Beyond the wish Cassie had no other ideas about how to reverse what had happened. The thought that she might be stuck in Jon Walker's body for the rest of her life scares her. After the novelty wears off what happens then? When she can't go home? When she has to live his life?
"You okay?" Brendon questions, his eyes still trained on Jon's face.
"I think I'm having a panic attack again." She mumbles out and she draws Jon's knees up to his chest. She's trying her best not to rock back and forth. Brendon makes a noise and Cassie see's his bunk curtain slide back. Brendon's propped up on his elbow watching her, his long body spread along the bunk and his ankles crossed.
Brendon puts his hand out near Jon's knee. "Come here." He says. Cassie doesn't understand what he wants her to do. She blushes as she gives Brendon Jon's hand. He tugs Jon's hand like he wants her to come up into the bunk with him.
"Wha-What?" Cassie stammers out. She knows that Spencer and Ryan are around and she doesn't really know what Brendon wants. Brendon tugs on Jon's hand again and Cassie doesn't move.
"Jon likes this." Brendon tells her and she's sure she's blushing darkly. She's not sure but she thinks that Brendon is hitting on her, well, Jon but still. He still has Jon's hand and she's trying to maintain her breathing, trying not to freak out but that task isn't easy when Brendon Urie is holding your hand.
"I'm not Jon." She replies, she looks away from Brendon. It would be too hard to say no to whatever he's asking if she were to look at him. Cassie hears Brendon laugh and it makes her chest clench.
"I think you'd enjoy it too." He tells her, his voice lower than she's ever heard it before. Cassie giggles, she can't help it. Brendon giggles too and she doesn't know what kind of boy giggles but she doesn't mind it at all. Cassie's sure if Krissy were here the blonde girl would kill her where she sat but Krissy isn't here, she has to remind herself of that.
"Oh god." Cassie mumbles out. She files away the way Jon sounds when he says that, it might come in handy later she thinks before she reluctantly pulls away Jon's hand. Cassie clambers up to Jon's bunk and flips so her back in facing Brendon. She's still blushing and trying her best to avoid the thought of writing fanfic about this moment.
"It was just cuddling." Brendon says from the bunk across from her. He sounds slightly wounded and Cassie is half tempted to just snuggle with him.
*****************************************************************************
Jon wakes up before either of the girls spending the night with him do. He's incredibly disappointed to find that he's still in Cassie's body. He lays in her bed for awhile, just staring up at himself and trying to wrap his mind around the fact that he's still not himself.
He had wished last night too. He had wished at 11:11 to be back in his body and he was hoping that it would work. Jon doesn't know what to do now and he certainly doesn't want to see the looks on Jenny's and Krissy's faces when they find out that their best friend isn't back.
Jon looks over and see's that the two teens are still asleep. Krissy on her side facing away from Jon and Jenny next to her on her back, sprawled, pillow over her face and her feet sticking out of the blanket. Jon laughs because that's kind of how Spencer sleeps.
Jon is tempted to call Cassie, to talk to himself but he isn't sure what the girl is doing...what Panic is doing. It feels so strange to be without them when he knows he should be.
Suddenly the bedroom door opens and a short older woman walks inside. Her hand is on her hip and her eyes are scanning the room. "Cassandra." She starts, her voice holding a firmness that only a mother could posess. "You're supposed to ask before you let people spend the night." She chides, her gaze drifting to the sleeping girls on the floor.
"Sorry...mom." Jon feels guilty for calling any woman beside his own mother, mom. "It just sorta happened." He tells the woman and she sighs.
"It's fine. I'll make some breakfast for you guys." Cassie's mom says before she moves back out of the room. Jon falls back on the bed and stares at his band he thinks this scene is quite emo and he kind of misses his camera.
*****************************************************************************
It's six at night when Cassie figures out that Brendon Urie has invented a new game. She doesn't really figure it out more so as Spencer blantly points it out to her. The new game Brendon has made up, as far as the combined minds of Spencer and Cassie can tell, is that Brendon does a series of acts that would make any fangirl melt into a pile of goo at his feet.
He does this in order to make Cassie, who is in fact a fangirl, blush and giggle and act all embarressed. Cassie can't tell if he finds this hilarious because she's in Jon's body so it's Jon that he see's blush and giggle and act embarressed or if it's just because Brendon likes to mess with Cassie.
Either way Cassie does not enjoy this game.
Ever since their interaction earlier that day Brendon has taken great joy in just plopping down next to Cassie and wrapping his arms around Jon's shoulders, his face in Jon's neck. Cassie would squeak and turn red and Brendon would giggle against her until Ryan would tell him to stop.
Currently Cassie was sitting on the couch in the back with Spencer and Ryan and she was just listening to them talk about tours or music or things the band had to do. Ryan points out that the band does have an interview with a magazine tomorrow and that sort of freaks Cassie out.
It's around this time that the bathroom door swings open and a cloud of steam billows out around them. "Oh. My. God." Ryan mutters, he drops his head into his hand. Spencer looks up briefly before his eyes widen and he looks away mumbling something about mormon kids. Cassie looks up and her cheeks flush almost instantly, her mouth dropping open of it's own accord.
There standing before them was Brendon. But not just normal Brendon, but a wet Brendon Urie wearing nothing but a very low hanging towel. He runs a hand through his soaking wet hair and he grins at his bandmates on the couch. Cassie's brain freezes up, she thinks that the only thoughts moving through it is something along the lines of 'Holy shit! Brendon Urie is wet and almost naked in front of me!'
Her eyes drink in Brendon's body. Long stretch of pale dripping wet torso, naked jutting hips, his hand holding his towel in place and yes, Cassie is perfectly fine with the fact that Krissy will murder her if she ever finds out that this event took place.
"Like what you see?" Brendon asks in his attempt at a sultry voice. Cassie would anwser, really she would if her brain wasn't mush. After Jon, Brendon would definitly be her second favorite member of Panic At The Disco. Cassie finds herself nodding. She does very much like what she see's.
"You should be like that...like..always." She says and Brendon grins and giggles and lets his towel slip a tad bit lower. Cassie can't stop the loud gasp that leaves her. Spencer and Ryan are looking at her like their afraid she might suddenly die or rape Brendon.
"Brendon..stop teasing her." Ryan commands. Brendon pulls a pout and turns his gaze to Ryan.
"Jealous Ryro? You know I love you best." The younger boy says and he blows Ryan a kiss before he turns around persumably to go get dressed. He doesn't get far before he lets the towel sink down and yeah, Cassie did just see Brendon Urie's magical ass.
Cassie feels a stiring in Jon's pants and she looks down to see Jon's dick is hard and the bulge is visible through Jon's jeans. Cassie blushes harder and tries to play it off, she's just praying that Ryan and Spencer don't see. Her prayer is denied though because Spencer and Ryan stifle laughter.
Cassie turns to them and it seems like she's constantly blushing as of late. "Being a dude sucks!" The girl cries out in Jon's voice and grabs a pillow and places it in Jon's lap, hiding the telltale bulge.
"Yeah, I guess it's easier to hide when you're excited when you're a girl." Ryan points out.
"You'll get used to it." Is all Spencer has to offer.
"She has a boner doesn't she?" Brendon calls from the front of the bus.
Cassie sighs and pushes the pillow in her lap down.
It's an hour later when Cassie decides to take a shower herself. She makes a point to avoid Brendon because she already knows that the boy would be armed with masturbation jokes. Lucky for Cassie, Jon's hard-on went away about fifteen minutes after it began.
A shower sounded like a good idea in theory but Cassie kind of forgot how it involved Jon being naked. She got his t-shirt off okay, and she will admit that she took time to appreciate his broad chest and maybe run her fingers over it but whatever. The jeans were easy too but the boxers..the boxers took a little longer.
Cassie eventually closes her eyes and pulls the gray boxers down to his feet before she steps out of them. She's willing herself not to look at his penis, she's seen it but it's not like it's right to stare for no reason. Would she want Jon staring at her body? That's a big no. Cassie is trying not to stare but it's like that thing where someone tells you not to do something so you immediently want to do it.
It's at this point that Cassie's glad she brought Jon's cell into the bathroom with her.
*****************************************************************************
Jenny is digging into her second pancake ala Cassie's mom when her cell phone starts ringing. She almost ignores it because damn, those pancakes are fucking good but Jon and Krissy are staring at her all intently so she sighs and anwsers it.
"Hola?"
"Jenny? I got a big huge problem." Jenny still isn't used to hearing Jon's voice over the phone.
"Oh, hi Cassssiiieee!" Jenny singsongs. Jon looks up at her mid-bite of pancake, Cassie's eyes wide. "What's the problem?" Jenny asks.
"Naked. I'm naked." By now Jon is making these weird handsigns that could either mean that he's choking to death or he wants her to put the phone on speaker.
"Oh, so he's naked?" Jenny says way too casually for Cassie's liking and Jon makes a coughing noise that definitly means that he's probably choking.
"Jenny! I don't think you're grasping the severity of this situation. Naked Jon Walker, Jenny. NAKED JON WALKER!" Cassie screams and Jenny thinks that Jon can hear himself over the phone.
"Okay, do you want to talk to him?" Jenny asks, she can't really think of how to help Cassie, maybe talking to Jon will help.
"No!" Cassie cannot talk to Jon when she is naked, especially when she's him and he's naked. Cassie hangs up quickly in case Jenny decided that she wanted to hand the phone over to Jon and climbs into the shower.
When she's under the lukewarm water it's a little more relaxing but she's beginning to think that this whole naked Jon situation is sort of like a bandaid. It's like it in the sense that maybe she just needs to get it over with, just do it nice and quick.
Cassie allows herself a five minute window to just observe Jon's body. It's definitly the creepiest she's ever felt in her entire life but whatever, she figures it kind of needs to be done. She runs hands over smooth skin and a tight ass and she's blushing but in the best kind of way.
Than there's the penis. And it's long and hard and thick and Cassie wraps Jon's hand around his cock. Shocks tingle through Jon's body and her mouth falls open. She bites Jon's lips so no sounds will slip through and she is definitly not telling anyone in the entire world that she whacked off Jon's body in the shower.
chapter six: The Leopard Print Harness Of Death Or Why Interviews Shouldn't Be Recorded
The first time Jon has to put on a bra, things don't go to well. He ends up with it horribly twisted around his upper body and he really fucking hates having short arms because he can just barely reach the back to pull it down. He struggles with said bra, which happens to be a bright pink with leopard brown spots on it. The bra makes it incredibly hard to wear white.
Jon eventually got the bra on but it's not like he enjoyed it once it was on. He definitly wasn't used to the tight restraint around his top half but hey, at least it made his boobs...Cassie's boobs look better.
After his little bra fiasco Jon thought about calling his ex-girlfriend, Cassie and apologizing for never listening when she complained about her undergarments. He decides against it though because he'd probably freak her out with his shiny new girl voice.
"I don't know how you girls do it! A bra is so uncomfortable!" Jon complains for what feels like the millionth time. Even now he can feel the straps digging into his shoulder and the back riding up.
Jenny shrugs. "I guess it's something you learn to live with." She tells him. Jon hopes he doesn't have to learn to live with it. "Just don't take it off or anything because you definitly have to wear one to school today." She adds almost as an after thought.
"I have to do what?" Jon asks as he stands in front of the mirror and brushes Cassie long brown hair. He's not used to having such long hair and if it weren't such a hassle he'd like to try different things with it.
"School." Jenny replies and she's standing beside Jon and smoothing her own bangs down.
"School." Jon repeates and damn he hates tangles so much! It's Monday morning and Jenny has spent all weekend with Jon but it was only at the last moment last night that Jenny had made any mention about the fact that Jon had to attend high school in the morning.
Jenny nods and brushes her hands over her band t-shirt. She was wearing a Panic shirt and Jon thinks that that wasn't an accident. "And if I know Cassie she'll definitly want you to change." Jenny states and she's surveying Jon.
"What?" Jon asks, he looks down at Cassie's body. He didn't see much wrong, she was wearing a t-shirt and some grey shorts. Jenny looks at him like he's slow and Jon resists the urge to throw a hissy fit. "What's wrong with what I'm wearing?"
"Well, lets see. You're wearing Timothy's clothes for one." She points out. By now Jon knows that Timothy is Cassie's younger brother, he wouldn't have guessed younger so he just figures that the kid is freakishly tall. It's true though that Jon had been stealing Cassie's brothers clothes and wearing them because it made him comfortable, made him still feel like he was a boy.
"Fine." He supposed that if he did have to go to school than he might as well make the girl look good. He ends up letting Jenny help him pick out the clothes to wear. He does notice that Cassie wears a lot of green but in the end he settles on a Fall Out Boy t-shirt and some worn jeans.
Krissy comes and picks them up. Jenny riding shotgun and Jon riding in the back. The two girls are giving Jon a quick run through of the school and teachers and students. Who she likes and who she doesn't like and what to do. Jon feels like it's too much to deal with at the moment and he's scared.
He knows it sounds strange because he's a rockstar, he plays in front of people all the time. And now he's scared to be in front of a bunch of teenagers. He runs a hand through Cassie's hair which he managed to keep in good condition. Jenny is looking back at him from the front seat, Jon thinks that she knows that he's nervous.
"It will be fine. It's not like you've never been to high school before." Jenny tells him as she turns back around and fiddles with the radio.
"Yeah, but I already went through high school. Why do I have to do it again?" Jon half whines because Cassie's voice can pull it off. They don't have time to talk anymore because Krissy is pulling into the sloping driveway of the local high school.
Jon swallows as he see's teens milling about but hell, at least he doesn't have to worry about being mobbed by anyone. Jenny and Krissy exit the car and Jon follows because he doesn't want Jenny to drag him into the school or anything equally embarressing for Cassie. He takes a deep breath as he relives high school all over again.
****************************************************************************
"I can't do this." Cassie tells Ryan. they're sitting together in the backseat of the car on the way to an interview with some kind of magazine. Spencer is keeping Brendon busy in the front seat of the car so he doesn't do anything to frazzle Cassie.
Ryan sets his sidekick down and looks over at her, his brown eyes warm and concerning. "You can do this." He tells her. It's too simple, she needs a bit more support than that because no, she can't do an interview. What is she supposed to say if someone asks her a question? She doesn't know half of the personal side of the band, the secrets behind the songs, these are things she just doesn't know. Things Ryan or Spencer can't teach her in the time span of ten minutes.
Ryan seems to know that she's not comforted but he's not used to comforting Jon. Jon's the one who rarely needs comfort and when he does, well, it's usually Brendon doing the comforting. Ryan places his hand on Jon's shoulder and gives it a squeeze. Cassie breathes sharply but it might be from the nerves or the fact that this is just about the first time Ryan's ever touched her.
"Don't worry about it." Ryan starts, his hand slides away from Cassie and back to his sidekick. "If they ask you any question that's too hard to anwser, like something you don't know...one of us will anwser it for you." Ryan adds and he smiles at her and her heart kind of melts.
Cassie calms down after that because it should all be okay.
They get to the place where the interview is taking place. Spencer doesn't stop Brendon quickly enough so Brendon is able to grab Jon's hand and drag him along into the building. Cassie is willing herself to not get overexcited. It's just Brendon, hopefully the novelty will wear off soon.
She's only been around them for three days so it's not like she's quite used to the fact that suddenly she's hanging around Panic At The Disco and that she gets to do things like huggle Brendon or sit next to Ryan Ross, they can't expect her to be used to it yet.
Once they're inside the building a man comes out of a room and is instantly talking a million words a second and ushering all four of them down a hall, suddenly Cassie doesn't mind in the slightest that Brendon is still holding her hand.
They get pushed into a little room with a couch just big enough for the four of them to sit comfortably. There's a man in here too and he's holding a clipboard and a tape recorder. He stands when they enter the room and he moves over to shake Ryan's hand. Cassie thinks that the man probably introduced himself but she's way to nervous to remember anyone's name. The reporter takes Jon's hand and introduces himself, his name is Jackson or something along those lines. Cassie almost, almost introduces herself as her girl self but at the last minute she croaks out Jon's name.
Brendon snags a seat next to Cassie on the couch. The interviewer begins his questions, his hands already jotting down notes on his pad of paper. The first question is being helmed by Ryan, something about the tour they're on. Brendon isn't paying attention, at least not to the reporter. The boy's attention is focused squarely on Cassie.
His hand slips to Jon's knee, just resting lightly. Spencer shoots Brendon a look but the boy just grins. Cassie is ignoring Brendon and his warm hands. She calls it taking the Ryan Ross approach. The reason for this is because Ryan's not giving his bandmates any attention, he's keeping his brown eyes trained forward and he's anwsering the question at hand. Brendon squeezes Jon's knee and she knows she shivers visibly.
"Brendon, stop, please." Cassie leans over to Brendon's ear and tries for a whisper but Jon's voice is deeper than she's used to so it end's up very audible. The boy turns to face Cassie, his face much too close to Jon's. She can hear Spencer making a choking noise and Cassie pulls away from the younger boy immediently.
Ryan is done anwsering his question and he's still looking straight ahead. The reporter, Cassie notices has his eyes trained on Jon and Brendon. The next question is directed at Brendon and it's the typical, 'Do you have a girlfriend?' question.
"Nope, I don't but there is this girl named Cassandra and I think she's adorable." Brendon chirps his anwser out. Spencer is now glaring at Brendon so hard that the singer might just burst into flames. Cassie's mouth is open because she can't believe he just told someone that. He's obviously joking but Cassie doesn't find it funny. People are going to read that and no, she doesn't want those rumors.
Spencer gets the next question and Ryan takes his turn to glare at Brendon. "Brendon, what can I do to make you stop?" Cassie whispers to him again. She manages to keep Jon's voice low but the reporter is watching them as Ryan's eyes go wide. It's apparent that Cassie doesn't know how dangerous those words are when used on Brendon.
Brendon grins wide and rests his head on Jon's shoulder. "Snuggle with me when we get back to the bus." Brendon whispers back but his voice is a little loud. Spencer and Ryan are still giving sidelong stares to Brendon and Cassie can feel the burn of the reporters gaze and the headlines that could spring forth from this situation.
"Fine." She rushes out. She's keeping the fact that Jon might, no, will definitly read this in the back of her mind. Cassie need's to salvage the rest of the interview.
"Fine what?" Brendon presses. He is quickly becoming Cassie's least favorite person ever.
"Fine, I'll snuggle with you when we get back!" Cassie says and she didn't quite gage her volume right because it comes out in Jon's speaking tone and now the reporter is looking at them and he's definitly laughing and probably thinking that Jon and Brendon are completely gay. With any luck he'll think it's all a joke.
The reporter does end up asking Jon a question but it's an easy one that involves how he's dealing with the band. Cassie finds it easy because she just tells him how she feels about the guys. The interview ends shortly after and Ryan asks if the reporter can just cut out the part where Jon said he'd snuggle with Brendon. The interviewer agrees but it's around this time that time that Ryan see's a man packing up a camera and leaving the room.
Apparently the interview was videoed and it's on Youtube within an hour.
Ryan sits with Cassie again on the way back to the bus. He looks pissed and Cassie feels bad. "I'm sorry." She says. She decided to take the opportunity to talk to him because Spencer and Brendon are inside a gas station buying snacks.
Ryan looks over at her, his eyes are harsh and Cassie thinks that whoever said that Ryan Ross wasn't scary was wrong. "It's okay, you don't know any better. It's Brendon I'm mad at." The boy says. Cassie can see where he'd be mad, the video makes them look..well. gay and that can't be good, despite Panic being like the gayest band in the world. That doesn't mean that Ryan wants proof floating around on the internet.
"I should've handled it better...I mean, you know I shouldn't have reacted to him." Cassie replies and she looks out the window to see if Spencer and Brendon are coming out yet. Ryan taps on his sidekick some more before he looks up at her.
"You're new though..people excite you." Ryan teases, he's grinning at her and she's really kind of glad that Ryan's not as serious as people make him out to be.
"Oh and just how long did it take for you to get comfortable around Pete Wentz?" Cassie replies. Ryan's face blanks before he's laughing loud and rich, Cassie like his laugh.
"Good point."
There's a silence between them and Ryan taps out more messages.
"Look." He starts and he's lifting his head so he's eye level with Cassie. "Jon and Brendon...they do things sometimes. They hug a lot and cuddle and Jon takes naps with Bren...it's just what they do. It doesn't necessarly mean anything..just..." He trails off and Cassie heart thumps a little faster because is Ryan trying to tell her that Jon and Brendon do things like that all the time? That it's all normal?
"I just think Brendon misses it." Ryan says finally as if that's a good reason for why Brendon is acting like he is. He misses Jon. Now Cassie really feels bad because she took away Jon from Brendon and now the young singer is acting out like crazy.
"So...what are you saying? I should just go along with whatever Brendon wants? And not worry about it?"
Ryan smiles "Basically."
Huh, so that's the secret to the band's success.
*****************************************************************************
It's much later and they're all back on the bus when Jon's cell phone rings. Brendon tries to anwser it but Cassie manages to hold it away from the younger boy and anwser the call. She's reliefed to find Jenny on the other line.
"Hey, Jenny!" Cassie says and she's actually happy despite the disasterous interview from earlier that day. Cassie sits on the edge of Jon's bunk but Jon's too tall for it to be comfortable so she gets up and moves to the sofa, sitting next to Spencer who isn't paying any attention to her.
"Hey, little miss Walker...I uh, saw your interview..." Jenny points out and Cassie sighs.
"You did? No way how'd you find it?" Cassie's shocked and a little loud and Spencer glares at her before he turns the volume up on the tv.
"Well, Krissy found it actually...and she forwarded it to me and Jon and I sorta watched it..." She trails off and Cassie groans. Ryan sticks his head out of his bunk and peers at Cassie. "It's all over the livejournals..." Jenny adds and Cassie groans louder, now Spencer is eyeing her with a strange look.
"Great...what did Jon think?" Now that Cassie mentioned Jon she seemed to gain the attention of all three boys. There's a silence on the phone.
"Well...lets just say there are two people here who aren't pleased."
"It wasn't my fault! It was Urie!" Cassie says and Brendon pouts while Spencer grins.
"Well, I didn't call for just that...something happened in school today." Jenny begins, Cassie feels her stomach clench.
"Oh god, what happened?"
"Well...promise you won't get mad."
"Jenny!"
"Okay! Okay! Just, we took Jon to school today and things were going great until..."
"Until what Jenny? What did Jon do?" Cassie is desperate to know because one little mistake could very well mean social suicide and if that's the case well, Jon better pay for her to go to some fancy private school where no one knows her name.
The other members of Panic are watching her intently seeing as she hasn't put the phone on speaker yet. Brendon makes the standard speakerphone motion and Cassie rolls her eyes but obliges him.
"Jon...well, he punched Danny in the face."
"WHAT?" Cassie screeches, Jon's voice isn't made for screeches. Spencer cringes and Ryan and Brendon just look confused. "You're telling me that Jon punched Danny, the love of my life in the face?"
"Well, he was teasing about your lisp and Jon got pissed and clocked him..."
"Geeze...How ironic considering that he's the one who taught me how to punch."
"That's what I said." Jenny laughs and Cassie knows that she's enjoying this event a little too much.
"Did I get suspended?"
"Two days."
"And Danny?"
"Went home with a bloody nose." Cassie made a face. She was sure he'd never speak to her again.
"Our Jon's a tough boy." Brendon says sounding very proud and Jenny gasps on the other end of the phone.
"OH MY GOD! WAS THAT BRENDON?" Jenny yells into the phone. Brendon laughs and Jenny sort of sounds like she's hyperventalating.
"Okay, well, tell Jon that now I guess we're even for the whole interview thing." Cassie says and she hangs up on her best friend before Jenny dies from lack of breathing.
chapter seven: Death By Cock Or Breaking The Rules
Jon is horribly bored now that he doesn't have school to go to. He also got yelled at for an hour by Cassie's mom for getting suspended. The boy who got Jon suspended, Danny, Jon thinks his name is, actually called that night and complimented Cassie on finally learning how to punch.
Jenny says that this kind of thing happens a lot between them. Jon is not getting involved in that.
With Jenny and Krissy in school during the day Jon is still bored. He's wearing a pair of shorts and he runs his hands down Cassie's legs. He notices that they're getting kind of hairy. Jon considers shaving her legs, he thinks he could handle it and it would kill some time.
So that's how he ends up sitting on the edge of the bathtub, Cassie legs dangling inside the tub and covered in a fruity smelling shaving cream. He's not exactly sure how to go about this, he doesn't think that it's like shaving his face but it's not exactly rocket science so he get's down to business.
It Works well for awhile, until Jon realizes that he can't really reach the back part of her leg, again those mother fucking short arms. He stands and twists and manages to knick himself with the blade. Jon sighs and it about to resort to a different option when he loses his footing and slips down with a splash into the bottom of the tub. Cassie legs are in the air, still covered in the fruity shaving cream. His whole back is wet and his ass hurts from falling.
Jon hates being a girl right about now.
He abandons his plans for leg shaving and instead washes off the shaving cream and stalks through the house dripping wet to change Cassie's clothes. He pulls off her wet t-shirt and shorts, leaving her in nothing but underwear. Jon tries hard not to stare at her chest while he searches for a t-shirt that he'd be comfortable in. But you know, it's boobs and he is a guy so he allows himself to ogle her chest awhile.
At least she's over the age of 18, even if she doesn't look like it.
Jon changes and just falls back into the girl's bed. Maybe he can catch up on his sleep or something? He's a little edgy because Jenny showed him that Youtube interview his band had done yesterday. Needless to say he wasn't thrilled about it because Brendon was all over him and had even name dropped Cassie so yeah, he kind of needs to get back.
Jon wasn't only bored. He had another slight problem, one that was harder to take care of. He was horny. It was a lot easier when you're a guy, simple erection jack off and you're done. Being a girl it's a lot harder cause..well, it just isn't the same. He's had an ache between his legs for the last two days and he's never really wanted to have sex more than in this moment.
He puts Cassie's hand behind her head because he doesn't trust himself not to venture down there. He's had sex, he knows what's down there but he's never felt it first hand. He sighs, he really needs to think of something to occupy his time because he's so, so tempted.
*****************************************************************************
Cassie wakes up and again she's still Jon Walker. She's been wishing every night to go back but it isn't working and she doesn't quite now what to do. She considers herself lucky that they're on a mini tour break where the band doesn't have shows for a small amount of time. Maybe she'll have one of them teach her some bass, just in case.
Cassie gets up to use the bathroom, trying to be extra quiet because the others are still asleep and Ryan is a light sleeper. She moves through the halls makes it to the bathroom, and only stubs her toe one time. That's an achievement to her. She makes her way back to the bunk, tired and her back hurts from the very uncomfortable bunk.
Suddenly there's a hand jutting out from the bunk across from Jon's, Brendon's bunk. Brendon snakes his hand around Jon's leg and stops him. Cassie leans down as she see's Brendon peek his head out through the curtain and looks up at her with sleepy brown eyes.
It's still semi dark in the bus, lights from electronics glow throughout, lighting it enough for Cassie to be able to see the boy. "What are you doing?" Brendon questions, his voice groggy with sleep.
"Bathroom...I didn't wake you did I?" She asks.
"No...I was kinda awake already...are you Jon again?" Brendon says, Cassie's heart sort of breaks because Ryan was right. Brendon misses Jon.
"No, still Cassie." She replies and she hears the sigh that Brendon lets out. "I'm sorry." She adds, she feels like she should apologize to the boy.
"It's okay." Brendon starts, she can hear him moving around in his bunk, his hand still on Cassie's leg. "Could you?...I mean...would you just come lay with me?" Brendon breathed out, he sounded almost like a little kid and Cassie heart started skipping beats.
"In your bunk?" Cassie whispered out, her mouth was dry and she looked around like she was afraid that Spencer and Ryan were watching her.
"Yeah." Brendon breathed out again and he was smiling. "Just come lay next to me." He requested. Ryan's words replayed in her head, the fact that this was normal, Jon and Brendon did this. It wasn't strange, it was normal. Brendon squeezed Jon's leg and that was kind of all she needed for this to be alright.
Brendon moved his hand off Jon's leg and he sits up and pushes the curtain away, revealing the length of his bunk to Cassie. Okay, Cassie just needed to breath. She climbed into Brendon's bunk, awkwardly laying next to the younger, okay younger when she's in Jon's body but really Brendon was older than her, boy. Brendon apparently did not feel that same sense of awkwardness because instantly he was turned on his side, his hand around Jon's waist and his head on Jon's chest.
Cassie's heart was stuttering in her chest. It was hard to breath. Brendon had his eyes closed and his hand was splayed warm on Jon's chest. "I missed this." Brendon whispers quiet, but Cassie can hear it well.
"Brendon, can I ask you a question?" Cassie says after a few minutes and she's still laying stiffly on her back. Brendon raises his head and looks at Jon, eyes warm like his hands.
"Go ahead." He tells her and she thinks that he sounds like he already knows what she's going to ask.
"Are you gay?" She questions, she doesn't mean it offensively, she just, always kind of thought that he was. The way he acts, it makes it difficult not to. Brendon could just be really touchy feely or he could like guys. Cassie didn't know and she didn't think she could try to act normal until she did.
Brendon props himself on his elbows and he smiles at her. "I knew you were gonna ask that." He states and maybe he gets this question more than she thought. Cassie just shrugs and sits up a bit so she can see Brendon better. "I don't like labels all that much but if I have to get technical than I'm bi." He explains, hmm that makes sense, so he likes it both ways.
"It's basically..I fall in love with people. It doesn't matter if they're boys or girls, I love who I love." Brendon explains, he's smiling and Cassie returns his smile because she fucking knew it!
"What about Jon?" Cassie finds herself asking this before she really knows it and her cheeks flush. She pretty much assumes that Jon is straight, probably the straightest in the band but he allows all this Brendon Urie cuddling nonsense so she can't be so sure anymore.
"Jon...well, he wasn't when he joined." Brendon's smirking, Cassie is pretty sure she must be dead. "I might have done a little convincing." The boy adds, he sits up, cramped in the small confined space of the bunk. He moves his hand to Jon's knee, gripping lightly.
Cassie's breath is shallow in her chest and Brendon knows, he knows and he finds it all entertaining. "So...so you two...?" She lets the question trail off because she doesn't know how to finish it. She just hopes that Brendon get's what she's asking, she doesn't want to have to spell it out for him.
Brendon smiles again, wide and warm, he scoots a little closer and their knees are bumping. Cassie doesn't know what's happening, oh, she has an idea and a want but she doesn't believe it's really going to happen. The boys hand moves to Jon's shoulder. "He likes it." He starts, his mouth dangerously close to Jon's ear. "He likes me." Brendon adds, he moves his face and their still close, close enough so she can feel his breath on Jon's face.
"You'll like it too." Brendon tells her quietly before he leans forward and presses his lips to Jon's. Cassie didn't need him to say that, she knows damn well that she'll like it.
Brendon's lips are warm and soft, god, so soft. She loves his lips, she always has. This isn't Cassie's first kiss but it is her favorite. Brendon's hand slides up over Jon's chest, his free hand moves up to the older boy's neck, fingers scratching lightly.
Cassie groans into Brendon's mouth, she knows she does and Brendon smiles against her mouth and pulls her closer. Her hands that were previously resting in Jon's lap moves up to Brendon's sides, Jon fingers pressing against his ribs, one hand then snakes up to Brendon's hair, tangling Jon's fingers into it.
Brendon tilts his head and Cassie feels the brush of his tongue. She opens for him and hi, Brendon Urie's tongue. Technically it's Jon kissing Brendon but than again Jon isn't exactly in control of his body, so maybe it is Cassie.
Things escalate quickly. Brendon pushes the bassist's body down on to his back, pressed firm against the bunk. Brendon crawls up Jon's body, so he's on top of Jon, their hips pressed tight together. their still making out, hot, Cassie's hard, Jon's dick straining against his jeans and rubbing against Brendon's thigh.
Brendon breaks their kiss and he looks down at her. "Still not used to it are you?" He whispers, Cassie shakes her head, panting into the space between them.
"I'm not. It's still so weird." She tells him. It's true, she's not used to feeling it, a thick hardness between her legs, begging to be touched. The young singer smiles again, Cassie notes that this is a different Brendon than the one she's used to. Normally Brendon is so happy and childlike, this Brendon is more agressive, more in charge. Cassie won't lie, she likes it.
Brendon leans away and tugs his shirt off, exposing long pale stretches of skin. Cassie wants to touch him, just run her fingers along his body. She indulges herself and her hands are attached to his skin instantly. He shivers under her touch, arching against Jon's calloused fingers. The singer grabs Jon's t-shirt and he's tugging, pulling his shirt up. Cassie leans forward, allowing Brendon to pull off Jon's shirt before she drops back down to her back.
Cassie doesn't know what they're doing, she's a virgin and she can't begin to comprehend the fact that her first sexual experience might be with Brendon Urie. The boy kisses her again. "Can I do something for you?" He whispers against the skin of Jon's jaw. His words are barely registering to Cassie, whatever he wants, whatever Brendon wants to do she's perfectly fine with it.
"Yeah, yeah, do anything you want." She's very passive, Jon's voice comes out sounding like a beg. Brendon smirks and slides his hot mouth down Jon's chest, leaving wet stripes across his chest. Brendon's mouth slides lower, tounge trailing down Jon's stomach until his mouth hits the waistband of Jon's boxers. Brendon's hand slides up Jon's leg and thigh until his warm hand is cupping Jon's cock through the boxers and she arches into his touch.
She can hear him chuckling, feels his hot breath against Jon's stomach. Fuck, she wants it, whatever he wants to give her, she's more than willing to take. Brendon locks eyes with her as his fingers slide under the waistband of Jon's boxers, he slides them off slow, Cassie lifting Jon's hips so the younger boy can get the boxers over his ass.
The cold air hits her, causing her to groan. Brendon's still watching her, she can feel his eyes burning her and his breath hitting Jon's aching hard cock. She should be embarresed by all this but she can't, it's impossible for her to be when she's so damn turned on. Brendon leans forward and in an instant his little pink tounge is out and flicking against the head of Jon's cock.
Cassie groans out, just that little bit and it already feels like too much. Brendon grins before he opens his mouth and drops down on Jon's dick. Brendon's mouth is hot, so, so hot. He moves his mouth down Jon's dick, wetting the length. Fuck, the sensation, it's better than she ever thought it could be. No wonder guys liked blow jobs so much.
Brendon's pulls up and sucks on the head, hot tongue swirling around. Cassie bites Jon's lip, she's trying to be quiet so Ryan and Spencer don't hear. But this has got to be the best feeling ever and she's never loved Brendon's mouth more. Cassie unintentionally bucks Jon's hips up, she doesn't mean to and she doesn't want to hurt the boy. Brendon moves his hands and presses down Jon's hips, holding him still.
He bobs up and down Jon's cock, he looks up again and Cassie is trying so hard to keep her eyes open, she doesn't want to miss anything. He's making little noises, small groans and he hums, the vibrations shudder through Jon's body and Cassie's head falls back against the pillows.
"Fuck, fuck, Brendon...." Cassie mumbles out, she bites Jon's lip again. Brendon pushes down lower, Cassie doesn't know what he's doing until she feels Jon's cock brush against the back of Brendon's throat. Before she knows it Brendon is deepthroating Jon, his nose burried down to Jon's curls.
Cassie's a girl and this is her first blow job in the history of ever so of course she isn't going to last long. "Bren..." She pants out, her hand gripping his shoulder. She's trying to warn him, she doesn't want to come and like, kill him or anything. Death by cock, god, she'd never hear the end of it. Brendon doesn't pull off though, just pulls up so he's sucking on Jon's cock head.
He sucks hard and Cassie throws her head back, crying out as she comes. She can't stop the cry that falls from her lips when she comes, Brendon's name spilling out. She keeps her eyes open, watching as Brendon swallows down Jon's load. He misses a bit and He's got some come on the corner of his mouth. Cassie sags feeling absolutely boneless in the bed. Brendon crawls up to her and leans down kissing her quickly.
His tongue is in Jon's mouth and fuck, oh, fuck, she can taste Jon's come. Her hand slips up to Brendon's neck, she pulls his mouth to her's, chasing the taste. It should be gross, it should be but no, it's not and she wants more of it. Cassie can feel Brendon's hardness against her leg and she feels bad, she had totally forgotten that he was hard too. Really it was his fault, you can't give someone a blow job and expect them to be able to think.
"Do you...want me to..you know?" she says motioning down to Brendon's lap. She's never sucked dick before but she's sure she could give it a go. Brendon is breathing heavy, his lips pressed to Jon's neck.
"Have you ever done it before?" He asks, his voice is deep and shaky. Cassie shakes Jon's head.
"No, I'm..I'm a virgin actually." She informs him. Brendon's eyes widen a bit before he laughs and runs a hand through his sweat slicked hair.
"You still are..I think...anyway..no, I don't want you to suck me off...but do you think you can...jerk me off?" He asks and Cassie spots him rubbing himself through his boxers. She leans in and kisses Brendon again, he should know that he never, ever has to ask her that question.
She nods all the same and Brendon nods with her. He moves forward and he's straddling her, his knees on either side of Jon's. With shaky hands he pulls down his boxers, slow, unveling his rock hard cock. All long and flushed and leaking. Brendon takes Jon's hand before he brings it up to his own mouth and licks broad stripes over Jon's palm.
Cassie lowers Jon's hand down to Brendon's hard dick. Her fingers brushing against the hard skin. Brendon shudders against Jon's hand. Cassie wraps her hand around Brendon's cock, she tries not to squeeze too hard, just firm enough she hopes. Brendon kisses her, wet and sloppy and they quickly gain a rythm. She works Brendon hard and quick, he bucks up against Jon's hand, fucking into Jon's fist.
"Fuck, yeah, yeah, like that." Brendon mutters out, his forehead is pressed against Jon's, their breath mingling together. Brendon's making all these noises as she jerks him off, the most beautiful noises Cassie's ever heard. His head tips back, exposing the long line of his pale flesh. Cassie leans forward and she can't help herself, she bites down on his neck, teeth sinking into fair skin.
The boy gasps out and Cassie pulls away from him. "Did I hurt you?" She asks, she hadn't meant to and she's sure she'd die of embaressment if she did. She's let her grip on him go lax, Brendon tips his head forward and meet's Jon's eyes.
"No, you just surprised me." Brendon pants out. He ruts against Jon's hand, still desperate to get off. "Just..just keep going okay?" Brendon begs, Cassie groans, in response to the begging, Jon's dick twitches. Cassie works him quick, she really wants the boy to come for her, nothing else matters except for that. The singer is swearing and fucking Jon's hand, his hips snapping.
Brendon's not being quiet, she's afraid that he'll wake the others. She resorts to kissing him to keep him quiet. It only takes a few more tugs before the younger boy is coming. He spurts thickly over Jon's hand, come streaking his fingers.
Brendon breaks away, resting his head against Jon's shoulder. Cassie wipes her hand off on Jon's discarded boxers. Her hand is still sticky, fuck, sticky with Brendon's come. Her mind goes fuzzy at that thought. The boy is still trying to catch his breath when he kisses Cassie. He's kissing slow and lazy now, they really should be asleep, it's late and dark out and Ryan and Spencer will probably want them up early.
Cassie leans down and fishes the boxers from the end of Brendon's bunk. She pulls them on, still sticky from Brendon's come. Brendon follows suit and pulls his own boxers on before he lays back against Cassie. "Do you want me to..go?" Cassie asks, she motions towards the bunk that's across from his.
Brendon's staring at her with sleepy brown eyes. "No, stay here. I want you to stay here." He mumbles, his breath warm on Jon's chest. Cassie nods and smiles before she settles down, she's sweaty and tired and this bunk is just as uncomfortable as Jon's but fuck, she just doesn't care.
*****************************************************************************
"I told you we should've put a bell on him or something." Cassie hears Spencer say. Ryan makes a noise somewhere between a laugh and a 'Hell yes I am actually considering this' sound. She cracks her eyes open and she almost forgets where she is.
She remembers that she isn't in Jon's bunk, she's in Brendon's. And she's shirtless as is Brendon who has his arms thrown over Cassie, his legs tangled with Jon's. Brendon's head is under Jon's chin and Cassie blushes as the events of last night replay in her mind.
Cassie doesn't want to but she pulls away from Brendon and looks over at Spencer and Ryan. She shields her eyes from the too bright light of the morning. Spencer's got his hands on his hips and Ryan's holding a coffee mug and smirking. "Have a good night did we?" Spencer questions, now he's smirking too but fuck it, Cassie had gotten a blow job from Brendon Urie last night.
"I broke rules number three and five." Cassie states, but she's grinning. Spencer rolls his eyes and Ryan laughs a little.
"Do you have anything else to say for yourself?" Ryan is asking in an amused tone.
Cassie shrugs. "Blow jobs from Brendon Urie are amazing."
*****************************************************************************
Jenny and Krissy go to Cassie's house after school. They knock on the door and are surprised to find that Jon doesn't anwser but Timothy does. "If you're looking for my sister, she's in her room." The tall boy tells them. He moves aside as the girls pass him by. Krissy doesn't miss the fact that he's totally checking out her ass as well as Jenny's boobs.
"You're such a perv." Krissy tells him and Timothy shrugs before he goes off to do whatever the hell it is he usually does after school. Jenny laughs and they move the incredibly small distance from the back door to their best friend's room. They don't really bothering knocking because they never have before, so why bother now?
They push the door open, Jenny spearheading the way into the room. She freezes three steps into the room, Krissy bumping into Jenny's back. "Oh. My. God!" The girl shouts and Jon jerks his hand out of Cassie pants, freezing on the bed, his face flushed but not just from being caught.
"What?" Krissy asks, her head poking over Jenny's shoulder. She see's Cassie's body on her back on the bed, pillows propped behind her head. She's flushed and her jeans are unzipped and pulled down too far for Krissy not to know what was happening.
"Oh my god, were you just?...." she trails off because she cannot finish that sentence, can't think of the bassist from Panic, getting their best friend's body off.
"No! No!" Jon cries out, he's flustered but yeah, he just got caught masturbating so he doesn't care. "I wasn't."
"He so was." Jenny says and she glances at Krissy before she looks back at Jon. "If you wanted to do that you totally should've told me. I could've helped you." Jenny tells him and she moves towards the bed. Krissy reaches out and grabs a hold of Jenny's shoulder. The younger girl looks at her friend and Krissy shakes her head.
Jon doesn't know what to do, well, he knows what he wants to do because it was feeling pretty awesome but he can't, at least not in front of these two.
"Just don't tell Cassie that I broke rule three." He says.
chapter eight: Homecoming Or High School Through A Girl's Eyes
It's a little while later when Cassie stumbles into the kitchenett. She's fresh out of the shower and Brendon is still sleeping. He had wanted to go take a shower with her but she told him no, apparently he gets really clingly after sex. Cassie is having a hard time adjusting to the conditions of the bus, the stacks of dirty clothes everywhere and apparently until they get to a hotel, they wear those dirty clothes.
Cassie considers it sheer luck that she finds a t-shirt in the very bottom of Jon's dufflebag. It's a bright pink though so maybe that's the reason it's like the only clean thing in Jon's bag. Spencer spots her and his eyes light up. "Jon told me he lost that shirt to ravenous fans!" He says and he kind of rushes over and give's Jon's body a once over. His hand comes up under his chin. "Nope, pink isn't Jon's color." He says after a few moments.
Cassie rolls her eyes and follows Spencer back to the kitchen area where Ryan is leaning against the counter, steaming mug of coffee in hand. Ryan grins when he see's Cassie enter the room. "You're just determined to make Jon the gayest member of this band aren't you?" He asks. Cassie frowns, maybe it was the lack of sleep, or the slightly dirty shorts she was wearing and the fact that Spencer wasn't even sure if they belonged to Jon, either way Cassie snaps at Ryan.
"Wouldn't want to steal your title." She retorts and maybe she'll try some of that coffee afterall. Spencer stifles a laugh, Ryan grins and drinks some of his coffee. "Are you mad that I did that with Brendon?" Cassie is asking five minutes later after she's drunk half a cup of ultra sweet coffee. She's curious, she doesn't know the rules of this kind of thing, plus she's a fan and all she's had to go on were the rules Jon had given her and she couldn't even stick to those.
Ryan's face falls and he shakes his head. "No, it's not like they haven't done that before." Ryan mumbles out, Cassie feels like she's got the wind knocked out of her. Lately all the Fueled By Ramen secrets are coming out and now would be a good time to remember rule number five.
"I didn't mean to. Brendon is incredibly hard to resist." She says it because it's true. Spencer snorts and Ryan gives him a sidelong glance.
"Yeah, Ryan knows that first hand." Spencer tells her and Ryan gives him a slight shrug, his cheeks going pink. Again Cassie loses her breath, she wants Jon's cell phone so she can tell Jenny that yes, at one point in time Ryden existed.
Cassie is kind of worried that things between her and Brendon will be awkward after this. How is she supposed to look him in the eyes when all she can think about is his mouth on Jon's dick? An impossible task. She's also not going to be able to ever hear him say the word 'Fuck' without getting turned on for the rest of her life.
She's about to ask Spencer and Ryan for their opinions when Brendon comes shuffling out of his bunk, hair askew and boxers dangerously low. He's still shirtless and Cassie gasps when she see's a semi dark mark on Brendon's neck, close to his throat. She blushes because that's totally where she bit him last night.
"How weird that she'd be a biter too." Ryan notes and Spencer nods.
"Now it's almost like Jon never left." He jokes and Cassie blushes deeper. Brendon blindly and silently gets himself coffee and has a good amount of it gone before he even acknowledges anyone. He nods at Spencer and Ryan and moves back towards the shower. Cassie thinks that he'll ignore her but he stops and leans over suddenly, kissing her quick and chaste.
He walks away after that, probably to shower. Cassie looks at Spencer and Ryan. Spencer is laughing while Ryan is watching with an amused expression and a raised eyebrow.
She's guessing that things won't be awkward.
*****************************************************************************
It's later in the day and the band is driving, they're heading to Vegas, which has all three boys in a twitter. Cassie not so much but than again, Jon is famous and old enough to drink so some fun could be had. She finds that sitting on a bus is incredibly boring. She's already watched three dvds full of episodes from the O.C. with Spencer and Ryan keeps trying to get her to talk to him about her opinions on their songs, that's something she doesn't want to do.
So, oddly enough she attempts to shave Jon's scruffy beard. It is altering his appreance but damn, it's itchy and she scratches her hands a lot when she tries to sleep. Brendon watches her and laughs when she cuts herself numerous times. She swears at him a lot but she lets Brendon put little pieces of toilet paper on her face afterwards and Spencer manages to get a photo of that.
Another problem she's been having is that Jon's bangs keep falling into his eyes and it's driving her crazy. She's so, so tempted to wear a headband but that would require a) Buying said headband and b) Earning Jon odd looks when she wore said headband out in public. Ryan scraps the whole idea and Brendon winds up calling him a party pooper.
The bangs are still an issue though so at the next stop Brendon drags them all into the little gas station to look around. Cassie is helping Spencer decide between a regular burrito and a chicken chimichanga when Brendon suddenly screams from halfway across the store. "Jon! Jon come here!"
Cassie still isn't used to anwsering to Jon's name but she goes all the same, finding Brendon standing between a rack of magazines and a shelf of knicknacks. "What is it Bren?" She asks "Because if you found another one of those bumperstickers that say 'Honk if you're horny.' I really don't care." Brendon makes a face and shakes his head.
"No, even though that sticker was insanely awesome. I found something to help you." He tells her, he's rocking on the balls of his feet as he points to the third rack on the shelf. What Brendon is pointing to are a little pair of hairclips, bows to be exact, silver bows if she's getting specific. Cassie bends to look at the clips, they're pretty but she doesn't get why Brendon's showing this to her, she doesn't get it until a lock of hair pokes her in the eye.
Two minutes later everyone is back on the bus. Spencer sitting on the couch and trying not to burn his tongue on his burrito. Ryan is next to him, threathing that if he gets cheese on his brand new scarf, Ryan will never forgive him. Cassie is squeezed into the bathroom, finger combing Jon's hair while Brendon watches. Brendon helps her put the clip on, just one, Jon's bangs pulled tight to the right, the medium sized bow holding the hair in place.
"You look adorable." Brendon says afterwards and Cassie blushes, just hopes that no one takes a photo or it's very possible that Jon will kill her.
Cassie and Brendon join Ryan and Spencer out in the lounge, Spencer choking on his burrito when he notices the boy. "Quickly becoming the gayest member of Panic." He wheezes out and the others laugh. Cassie sighs because in this band, that's saying a lot.
*****************************************************************************
Jon got to go back to school a whole day early. Only because Cassie's mom called and yelled at the school's secerary for fifteen minutes but whatever, at least he's not bored anymore.
School is still a little complicated. He mostly just follows Jenny and Krissy's leads. It's only now that he realizes just how used to fame he had gotten. He's really not used to not getting stared at or girl's suddenly not throwing themselves at him. It's weird and he wants to talk to Ryan about it but he can't because cell phones aren't allowed in class.
During computer class Jon blows off Cassie's work and looks up all the Panic info he can find. He doesn't know what he was expecting, maybe someone to suddenly be like 'OH MAH GODDD JWALK IS OBVIOUSLY A TEENAGED GURLLLL!!!!!!!!'
That didn't happen but he did find a link to Pete's blog and on there was a picture of Jon and Brendon. Jon's eyes widen, it was a pic of himself and Brendon squeezed into the bathroom, his wicked awesome beard gone and Brendon looked like he was putting toilet paper on Jon's face. There was a caption beneath the picture that simply read 'Thanks Spencer and Ryan.'
Jon sighed, he knew that picture was taken after the switch because before he totally had his awesome beard and now it was gone. And obviously Brendon had taken a shine to Cassie and even more obviously Ryan and Spencer were encouraging it.
Jon wonders if Brendon's tried anything with Cassie yet. He told the girl not to but he knows first hand how tempting Brendon can be. Little flickers of jealousy shoot through Jon's body. He wants to be back around his boys, with his friends. He is enjoying Cassie's friend's but it's getting harder to just go along with things.
He also feels a tad bit lonely at lunch when Jenny is sitting next to a dark haired girl and they're holding hands under the table. Krissy is chatting away at a short dark haired boy who's name Jon forgot. That Danny kid that Jon punched in the face is sitting across from him talking about something that he's only half listening to. "You're being really quiet today." He tells her and Jon shrugs and pushes his food around on the plate. "What did Pete Wentz suddenly retire or something?" The boy asks and Jon looks up at the boy.
"Danny, shut your talk hole. Cassie doesn't feel like talking to you today." Jenny says from next to Jon. Danny rolls his eyes.
"Whatever, Cassie is totally my Bff. Right Cass?" Jon shrugs, being a teenaged girl is too hard.
"So Cassie, did you see that pic that's floating around the net? The one of those two guys from Panic?" The dark haired girl whose holding Jenny's hand, Jordan he thinks her name is, says. Jon nods but Krissy leans over to get in the conversation.
"Who was it?" She asks.
"Jon and Brendon." Jenny replies with a grin and they watch as Krissy frowns.
"So that's why you're all bummed? Because you found out that Jon is totally gay?" Danny asks and Jon makes Cassie glare at him.
"I'm..I mean he's not gay!" Jon retorts, whether that's the truth or not, they don't need to know. Danny rolls his eyes.
"Yeah, keep holding out hope that you'll meet Jon and marry him and have little Jwalk babies." Danny teases and Jon looks back down at his food.
"He's better than you." Jon retorts and Danny looks like he got punched all over again. Jenny laughs and Krissy sighs and Jon knows that he did something wrong.
*****************************************************************************
So they get to Vegas and Cassie's never seen Vegas so she's pretty excited, almost as excited as the others are but not really. Brendon's sitting beside her and staring out the window, smiling and telling her all about their lives in Vegas.
"We're totally going to go to Spencer's house because Spencer's house is awesome! And later I'll show you were I used to live, not my parents house but the apartment I had and we can go to the smoothie place where I worked and they give us smoothies on the house! Oh, oh, we can go drinking! We can so go drinking and you can order fruity drinks with me because no one else likes fruity drinks...well, Patrick does but he's not in Vegas right now....oh and you can meet Spencer's mom but you totally have to pretend like you already met her so I'll have to tell you her name and stuff but it's going to me like sooo much fun and I-"
"Brendon! You're rambling!" Spencer snaps at the older boy and seriously? Did Brendon even breath during that tangent? Cassie's a little overwhelmed but she's willing to allow Brendon to show her around the city, where the boy's grew up.
"So, where are we going right now? Spencer's house?" Cassie asks as she stares out at dry land. She looks over her shoulder to see Spencer and Ryan standing together, Ryan looking both happier and being quieter than she's seen since she's switched. Spencer shakes his head and glances at Ryan.
"No, we're going to go eat some where first." He tells her.
"Oh." Is all Cassie's says as she resumes staring out the window. She wonders if Jenny and Krissy and well...herself are out of school yet because she'd really like to talk to them.
It takes them fifteen minutes to get to the resturant. Cassie is kind of disappointed to find that this part of Vegas isn't exactly like the cliched version they show in movies. It looks fairly normal, maybe just a little more glitzy than the average section of town but whatever.
The resturant is some kind of fancy place, nerves settle into Cassie's stomach because she's never really been to a fancy resturant and she doesn't want to look stupid in front of Ryan and Spencer, honestly she doesn't think Brendon cares. Brendon bounds off the bus, only after he takes the bow out of Jon's hair and Cassie follows, with Spencer and Ryan bringing up the rear.
Ryan looks estatic and she's glad, she was thinking that maybe the city would bum him out but it didn't because, it's home. The four of them are lead back into a private part of the resturant, one that's roped off from ordinary people, people like Cassie. Ryan and Spencer and Brendon go into the closed off room first with Cassie following.
The private room is huge and looks like it's used for parties but it's all empty, empty except for the four of them a few waiters and Pete Wentz.
chapter nine: The Truth Comes Out Or My Long Distance Lover
Someone should've told her that Pete Wentz was going to be at the resturant. Someone should've told her because than maybe what happened, wouldn't have happened.
What did happen was that as soon as Spencer and Ryan and Brendon cleared out of the way and Cassie caught a glimpse of all 5''5 inches of a grinning Pete in tight jeans and a clandestine hoodie...well, she couldn't contain the sudden squeal that escaped Jon's lips. The other three members of Panic looked on with wide eyes and Pete just looked confused as Cassie rushed past them all and was hugging Pete.
More like squeezing him but whatever, Cassie still isn't used to Jon's strength. "OH MY GOD IT'S PETE WENTZ!!!!" Cassie squeals, Jon's voice emitting loud in the room. Cassie also kind of forget's that she's taller now that she's in Jon's body so Pete's sort of crushed to Jon's chest, his face showing bewilderment.
Brendon is laughing his ass off while Ryan makes a whiny, sort of jealous kind of noise and Spencer just shakes his head. "Um, hi, Jon." Pete says, patting Jon's shoulder delicatly. Spencer clears his throat.
"Now, Jon we all missed Pete...so it's time to let him go now." Spencer points out and it's then that Cassie seems to realize just what it is that she's doing. She gasps and releases Pete like she's getting burned. Pete is still standing confused in the middle of the private section of the fancy resturant in Vegas. Cassie is blushing deep while Brendon comes up and claps Jon on the shoulder.
"Right...well, besides that..how are the rest of you?" Pete's asking and he looks only kind of weirded out but moreso entertained.
"Good." Ryan says and he looks more nervous than Cassie's ever seen him, maybe he's still just a Pete Wentz fanboy after all. Ryan also looks like he wants to add 'For a band that has a teenaged girl in their bassist's body.' And it kind of amazes Cassie that he can pull all that off with just a look.
So they sit down and order food. Spencer and Ryan don't let Cassie sit next to Pete so she's stuck between Spencer and Brendon. Cassie manages to not say anything stupid but she doesn't manage to stop staring at Pete and grinning at him like a complete idiot. Pete also doesn't manage to stop noticing Cassie staring at him and he's laughing throughout the meal, Ryan shooting glares at Jon.
"Pete! We're trying to talk here." Ryan points out and Pete slowly turn's his attention back to Ryan.
"Sorry Ry, but Walker keep's staring at me." Pete replies and Cassie pointedly looks down at her plate, pretending like she doesn't even know who Pete Wentz is.
"It's because he's recently come to the conclusion that he's in love with you." Brendon says and Cassie gasps at the same time Ryan snaps at Brendon.
"Oh yeah, cause it's not like you didn't just blow him last night!" Ryan says a bit too loudly and earn's himself an odd stare from the waiter.
"Like you're not going to try and blow Pete tonight!" Brendon replies and Spencer throws on a long suffering look while Cassie blushes and Pete is laughing his ass off.
"Seriously, are you guys like all high?" He asks after a moment and Spencer sighs.
"It would be so much easier if we were." He sighs out in a long suffering tone.
"Maybe we should just tell him?" Brendon asks and Ryan's eyes widen and he shakes his head. The instant Pete finds out about the whole bodyswap situation, the rest of FBR is sure to know.
"No! No! We agreed not to! Right Spence?" Ryan rushes out, fully ignoring the fact that Pete is sitting right there at the table. Spencer nods and Brendon scoff's.
"No, you and Spencer agreed. Cassie and I had no say in it." Brendon replies, his arms across his chest. Pete looks even more confused and entertained, Cassie thinks he kind of looks like he's wishing he was taping this.
"Wait, whose Cassie?" Pete says, like he's watching a spanish soap opera and trying desperately to keep up.
"I don't care what we do!" Cassie says, Jon's hands coming up in the 'I'm innocent' fashion. Ryan drops his head into his hands and sigh's, watching as his whole plan crumbles around him.
"Ry, I think we should just tell him. He might know what to do!" Spencer suggest, like the draw of the almighty Pete Wentz will be enough to get Ryan to say yes. Ryan peek's at Spencer through his fingers while Brendon slides his arm around Cassie's shoulder and he's thinking that maybe he should've sat next to her so Brendon couldn't play grabby hands.
"Fine, fine, we'll tell Pete." Ryan finally agrees and it's than that they finally acknowledge that Pete's actually at the table with them. His hands are up under his chin and he's watching the whole table like it's some very interesting play.
"Pete." Ryan starts and Pete make's a blank face before he looks over at Ryan.
"Oh? Do I finally exist again?" He teases and Ryan smile's despite himself.
"Just shut up and listen Wentz." Spencer tells the much older boy and Pete does because Spencer's bitchface just work's like that. So they sit and Ryan and Spencer explain what's happened, Brendon chimming in when he feels the need and Cassie stuttering through anwsers when Pete asks them.
When it's all over Pete looks wary. "You guys are fucking with me aren't you? Pull one over on ol' Pete right?" they're not exactly sure if Pete is supicious or desperate to believe his question. Spencer shakes his head.
"Utterly and completely serious. That is not our Jon Walker." He says and Cassie never knows what to say to that. Should she apologize for not being Jon? For taking him away? For causing such rapid chaos in the Fueled By Ramen world.
"So, whose already taken advantage of her?" Pete laughs and Brendon promptly raises his hand while Cassie grab's it and pulls it down, glaring at him all the while.
"Brendon, stop telling people that! Jon's already going to kill me for breaking the 'No Sex' and 'No Fooling Around With FBR People' rules!" Cassie rushes out and Pete laughs either at the rules or at hearing just how high Cassie could make Jon's voice get.
"So, since it's not really Jon...can I borrow your bassist?" Pete requests and Brendon makes a face.
"No! She's our freak of nature." Brendon says defensively and he wraps his arms around Jon's neck tugging the boy's body close and sticking his tongue out at Pete.
"Freak of nature?" Cassie asks, pushing Brendon away from her.
"Besides she's still a person." Spencer adds and Pete sigh's.
"You guys never let me have any fun."
They manage to make it through the rest of the meal with Ryan forcing him to promise that he won't tell anyone about this, not even Patrick and it take's Pete a whole five minutes and they have to agree to let Pete kiss Jon's body just once before they leave before he accepts the deal.
So when it's time to leave and Pete wants to collect his side of the deal, Brendon cling's to Jon's arm and doesn't want it to happen. "It's not even Jon!" Ryan snaps at both Brendon and Pete. But Brendon doesn't want to hear it and Pete just doesn't care.
Cassie also doesn't care because when Pete Wentz wants to kiss you, you don't say no. So Pete moves up to Jon all suave and cocky despite how much shorter he is than Jon. He moves up and grins sliding his hands up Jon's arms, up his shoulder's and on his face, pulling Jon's face down to meet his, lips against lips.
For the record Brendon kisses better than Pete but she knows that she isn't allowed to tell anyone that. Pete does kiss rougher, biting at Jon's lips and his fingers digging into his hair and skin and too much tongue. He releases Jon/Cassie from the kiss only after Ryan makes a not so subtle coughing noise and Pete breaks away, smiles and wipe's his hand across his mouth.
They leave after that and Cassie is kind of swimming in a haze because she's kissed both Brendon Urie and Pete Wentz all in the same week and yeah, her friend's are going to hate her but she really doesn't care.
*****************************************************************************
Jon discovers that Cassie has a pet cat. That makes him happier than it should but he can't help it, he love's cat's. He found the cat when he opened the door one day and the skinny brown and tan cat strode in, looking up expectantly at Cassie.
Jon will totally not admit to the girlish squeal he emitted when he saw said cat nor will he admit to the fact that he does the same squeal even when he's a dude. Jon scoop's up the kitty and there's a brightly colored collar around it's neck with a little gold pendant hanging off. Jon fingers the pendant, turning in until he can read the engraved name.
'Patrick Martin Smith.' It read's and Jon laughs, finding it both a little creepy and totally adorable. "Patrick." He says to the cat and at least it's something he won't forget. Patrick lets out a small cry at his name and Jon pet's him before moving on to the couch, Patrick snuggled in his lap.
Beside's the adorable bundle of fluffy kitty that is Patrick, Jon is occupying himself with the phone. It's a rare occasion where Jenny and Krissy can't come over to gawk at him and Jon won't admit that he kinda misses them. Jon already knows what number he's dialing as he turn's on the phone, he does it almost like breathing, without thinking about it.
The phone on the other end ring's loudly in Jon's ear and he wait's with a hard thumping heart. Maybe they're busy, maybe they're doing something more important, maybe they've forgotten Jon. Finally the line get's picked up and a male voice is anwsering.
"Hello?" It's Brendon's voice and not Jon's own, that's not what he was expecting.
"Brendon?" Jon tries but it's Cassie's voice and he doesn't actually think that Brendon remembers Cassie's voice but than again, he's starting to get used to it.
"Oh, wow! Jon is this you?" Brendon kind of squeal's out, obviously excited.
"Yeah Bren, it's me." Jon replies, he tip's his head back against the couch and lets his hand run over Patrick's soft kitty ear's. He didn't realize until this moment just how much he missed Brendon, his voice and his smell and just being around him. Jon also just realizes that Brendon has his phone, which instantly make's him worry just where Cassie is.
"Sorry, I didn't recognise the number." Brendon is saying, he pauses for a moment and maybe he's talking to someone else or doing something that Jon can't see.
"Brendon, where's Cassie?" Jon asks, he kind of called to talk to her, to make sure she was doing alright in his body but Brendon, that's what he wants now. He's hear's Brendon laugh softly.
"I think she fell into a stress induced coma." The younger boy note's and Jon's eyes widen, instantly afraid at what could be stressing her out.
"Please explain Urie."
"Geeze, I was kidding Walker. She's sleeping on the couch, Ryan keep's waking her up extra early and she get's headaches if she doesn't get enough sleep and she doesn't really care for coffee." Brendon rambles out, little spark's of jealousy flood through Jon because he doesn't want Brendon learning little things about her, even it it looks like him.
Jon can hear Brendon shuffling against someone, fabric rustling and he thinks that the boy is probably on the couch with her, snuggling next to Jon's body when he's not even there to enjoy it. "You look adorable when you're asleep Jonny." Brendon coo's and Jon isn't exactly sure if he's talking to him or Cassie, who looks like him.
"Um, thanks?" Jon tries and Brendon giggles into the phone, Jon ignores the small twist in his heart. So he and Brendon are sort of together, kinda, maybe, he doesn't really know, he's never really asked. All he knows is that he and Cassie, his ex and not the girl he switched bodies with, broke up because Jon told her that he kissed Brendon, an easy break up, maybe the easiest of his life. But still he and Brendon make out and snuggle and get each other off but he's never asked if they're together, now he kind of wants to know.
"I miss you Bren." Jon breathes out, eyes closed and imagining Brendon's face. The younger boy giggles into the phone.
"No phone sex when I'm already on top of you." The boy says and Jon sigh's. "Or I could..it might be interesting." Brendon laughs and Jon shakes his head.
"You're going to traumatize that girl."
"She already liked it so I think you're wrong." Brendon tells him. Jon's eyes widen.
"What? Brendon...please tell me you didn't do anything with her?" Cassie's voice is ringing out high again and there's silence on the other line.
"Oh? What...what's that Ryan? Yeah, hang on. Sorry Jon. Ryan need's me so Talk to you later!" Brendon tells him and Jon knows that Ryan wasn't really calling Brendon but moreso that Brendon knew he accidently told Jon that Cassie broke two rules. It's not that huge of a deal but it does creep the boy out that someone else is getting off in his body, while Jon's stuck here alone.
Jon run's his hands through Cassie's hair and hear's Patrick let out a tiny cry, so maybe, he's not entirely alone.
chapter ten: Make Out King Or Best Friend's Forever
So they get to Spencer's house and Brendon is very ungracefully bouncing on Jon's back trying to wake Cassie up. Cassie swat's at Brendon and she kind of need's to remember that Jon has longer arms because she is fully able to clip Brendon in the face with Jon's hand, something she never would have been able to do before.
Brendon cries out and fall's off the couch and on to the floor. Cassie pulls herself up and looks down at the boy. "Sorry Bren." Jon's voice mumbles out, still half asleep. Brendon shakes it off, stands and grab's at Jon's arms, tugging the boy's body up.
Cassie's really just glad to be off the tour bus, it end's up smelling like bad cheese and alcohol, a combination that she'd be happy to never smell again in her life. Once off the bus Brendon link's arms with Cassie and tug's her up to the porch, bouncing eagerly as Spencer undoes the lock.
Spencer really does have a nice house. It's huge and tan and filled with some of the coolest stuff Cassie's seen like a pool table and sweet clandestine hoodies. Spencer check's a few things and Cassie note's just how comfortable Ryan and Spencer are here and it make's her glad.
After Spencer settles he goes off to take a shower in one of the two bathroom's. Ryan goes to claim a bedroom and Brendon declares that he's going to make pancakes and he wants Cassie as his assistant. Five minutes later he's got pancake batter on the floor and syrup spilled on the table.
Cassie's sitting on the little stool beside the counter watching him. Never in her life did she believe that she'd be watching Brendon Urie make breakfast food's, or listen to him sing Disney songs while making breakfast food's. She really should be photographing this, Jon's a photographer, he's got to have a camera somewhere on the bus.
Three minutes later Cassie is sitting at Spencer's kitchen table eating pancakes with Brendon and even Ryan has come down to enjoy the carb goodness. Cassie is spreading peanut butter on a pancake with her finger, licking the substance off said finger when Brendon talk's. "You know Jon's alergic to peanut butter right?" He says and Cassie gasps, Jon's finger falling out with a small pop.
Jon's eyes are wide and she's startled for a whole seven seconds before Brendon starts laughing and Ryan sigh's. "He's not algeric to anything...maybe Brendon but not peanut butter." The lyricist says. Cassie glares at Brendon and take's a bite of her pancake.
"Oh come on! Don't be mad, it was a joke!" Brendon tries and Cassie cold shoulder's him in a typical teenaged girl fashion, one that make's Ryan laugh because it looks like Jon's imitating every girl Ryan ever went to high school with.
After Spencer get's out of the shower Ryan get's in and Spencer suggests that Cassie or Brendon take one in the other bathroom because he's itching to get out of the house and maybe go out partying.
So Cassie obliges and goes to take a shower, locking the door behind her, an act that proved useful seeing as the handle to the bathroom started jiggling three minutes into her shower. "I knew locking that was a good idea." Cassie states and she hear's more jiggling.
"Aww, come on, you're no fun." Brendon's voice issues from the other side of the white door.
"Go take your own shower Urie." She demand's, she really can't aford to break the rules more than she already has. Brendon huff's.
"I'm trying to save the enviroment here! You know, saving water and whatnot." He tries and Cassie rolls her eyes, really arguing with Brendon is like arguing with a house plant. Damn near impossible.
"Brendon if you aren't ready by the time we leave...I swear to god, we'll leave without you." Spencer yell's and Cassie laughs despite the chance that soap get's into her mouth, she's still not used to not having to use epic amounts of shampoo for her not so epic short Jon Walker hair.
An hour later and the four of them are at a club with Pete. It's all V.I.P of course, all velvet ropes and any kind of drink you could imagine and Cassie is estatic that she doesn't need an I.D. to get alcohol. She's also estatic that the bartender can make a multitude of fruity drinks for her. She earn's a few odd looks from said waiter because what kind of twenty three year old seemingly straight guy orders bright pink drinks?
So Cassie drink's, mostly fuzzy navals and these things called pink squirrels that Brendon suggests to her because they come with free cherrie's and yeah, tonight cherrie's are awesome. Cassie learn's pretty quickly that Jon can definitly hold his alcohol much better than she usually can. It's been a little over an hour since they arrived at the bar and the girl is betting that she downed at least ten drink's in that amount of time, but she's not drunk, just nicely buzzed.
She's buzzed enough that she's willingly to dance with Brendon when the song 'Love Is A Battlefield.' is played and enough to allow Pete to buy her some shot's, that act leaving Ryan sending her scathing looks from across the bar. Cassie kind of suspects that maybe Pete's trying to get her drunk and therefore more prone to any kind of crazy idea's he might have. She expresses this thought to Spencer and the boy actually take's her seriously telling her that most, if not all of Pete's crazy idea's involve threesomes and a naked Ryan Ross.
After their enlightening words Ryan drag's Pete away to 'talk' is what Spencer says but his eyes flicker knowingly and Cassie take's to scanning bar corners in the hope's off seeing them making out. Spencer also start's to seemingly protect Jon's body, from Brendon or others she's not sure but all she knows is that he's almost glued to her side, preventing Brendon from grinding against her on the dancefloor.
Spencer also make's her sit at the bar when she tells him she's getting a little dizzy. Maybe the most hilarious thing Spencer does is throw an ultimate Spencer Smith bitchface at a girl who plop's herself down next to Jon's body and make's all kind's of not so subtle, suggestive flirty moves at Jon/Cassie. Spencer throws the bitchface out and the girl eyes the two of them before she scoff's and leaves.
Spencer order's her a glass of water.
"I totally think she thought you were my extreamly jealous boyfriend or something." Cassie states, Jon's voice is lower when he's drinking, comes out as more of a rumble in his chest. Cassie presses her hand against Jon's chest and Spencer is eyeing her oddly.
"What are you doing?" He asks, almost in an 'you're obviously getting wasted' type of tone. Cassie glances at him, hand still pressed to Jon's chest.
"His voice rumbles around in his chest. It's interesting." Maybe it's how honest she's being but Spencer finds this whole thing very endearing and he scruff's Jon's hair fondly. Spencer gives her the water he order for her before he goes to find Brendon. Cassie pushes the water aside and orders another pink squirrel, because cherries are always a good idea.
They decide to leave an hour later, mostly because Brendon is picking a fight with the D.J. over him not playing Brendon's request. Pete end's up leaving with them, following behind them in his own car. Ryan and Spencer are in the front seat and Brendon and Cassie in the back, Brendon's drunk and still bitching about the D.J.
"I swear he wouldn't play it just because I was a dude." He half slurrs and no one is really paying attention to him but maybe he's too drunk to notice. "Seriously, if I had big boob's and blonde hair I totally would've been able to get him to play 'My Hump's'" Brendon tells them and now he's looking over at Cassie for some sort of agreement to which Cassie just nods.
"I guess it would've been easier." She says and Brendon nods.
"See! Girl Jon agree's with me!" Brendon tells Spencer and Ryan.
"Since when do we call her girl Jon?" Ryan question's and Spencer laughs.
"I was trying it out." He sits back and pout's. Brendon sits back and rest's his head against Jon's shoulder, Cassie's breath catching in Jon's chest. Since that night in Brendon's bunk the two of them haven't fooled around but maybe, maybe she wants to. Or maybe it's just the alcohol talking.
Brendon lifts his head, eyes locking with Cassie's but she constantly has to remind herself that he's not seeing her, he's seeing Jon. He doesn't want to do this with her, but with Jon. The boy leans in closer and their mouth's meet, warm and light. Within a minute the soft kisses has turned into druken sloppy making out.
Spencer and Ryan must've been suspicious from the sudden lack of noise from the backseat because Spencer turn's to glance at Ryan and Ryan rolls his eyes and turn's around in his seat. "Oh for the love of god." He starts, shaking his head at the now heavy making out taking place in the backseat of Spencer's car.
"Their making out aren't they?" Spencer question's, keeping his eyes trained on the road.
"Yeah, but Brendon need's to learn to control himself!" Ryan says, his voice rising higher with each word he says. Brendon just flips Ryan off and Cassie knows she should pull away, tries to pull away but Brendon's mouth is too hot and is following Jon's, keeping them locked together.
"God, we need like a spray bottle or something...like they use for cat's." Ryan states and Spencer laughs. Ryan turn's back around, obviously knowing that this is a futile attempt. "They'd probably be doing this anyway." Ryan tells his best friend.
They get back to Spencer's place and Ryan and Spencer break Brendon and Cassie apart. Of course Pete is there too and he drag's Ryan back into Ryan's guest bedroom when Spencer isn't looking, leaving the youngest in the band alone to deal with a very drunk Brendon and a girl Jon.
Brendon wants to watch a movie and Brendon also wants them to all lay together on the floor. So Cassie sits on the couch with Brendon, keeping him occupied while she watches Spencer lay out blankets and pillows on the floor for the three of them to lay on. Normally Spencer would be asleep in his own fucking bed because this is his house after all but Ryan's room happens to be across from Spencer's room and the boy would much rather sleep out here than hear his best friend and Pete Wentz screwing each other.
So somehow Cassie end's up with Brendon on her left and Spencer on her right. Brendon's hands are on Jon's body, grazing and it's more than apparent that he get's terribly horny when he's drunk. He's got his mouth on the back of Jon's neck and Spencer's trying to put the dvd in so he can't really see what Brendon's doing. "We should fuck." Brendon breathes hot against Jon's neck. She shivers and tries to pull away but at the same time she kind of wants to push back against him.
"What?" Jon's voice gasps out and she turn's a bit, face just a little closer to Brendon's. Brendon moves forward and kisses Jon's cheek.
"You should totally fuck me and..and we can call Jon during it...fuck, he'd love it." Brendon says but it's not at all quiet and Spencer hear's it and he's looking over at them.
"Brendon..." Spencer says almost like a warning. "I let you pick the movie so sit back and watch it...and leave Cassie alone." The younger boy tells him. Brendon prop's himself up and eyes Spencer, his head lolling from side to side.
"Aladdin?" Brendon tries and Spencer nods before he scuffles back over and lay's down in his spot. Brendon nods and settles down with his head on Jon's shoulder. Thirty minutes later and Brendon is asleep, the movie is still running and Spencer is still awake along with Cassie.
"Well, at least we can watch something better now." Spencer says as he throws his blankets off and moves to the dvd player. "Anything you like in paticular?" The younger boy asks and Cassie shakes her head.
"Just nothing horror okay?" she says and Spencer laughs but nods. He put's in a movie that Cassie's never seen before, he moves back and lays in his spot next to Jon. Brendon makes a snuffling noise and rolls away from Jon's body. "Finally, I can move my arm." She says and she lifts Jon's arm and flexes it, trying to wake it up. Spencer laughs again.
"Sometimes I forget you're not Jon." Spencer says, looking over at Cassie. "Like, I forget that you're actually a girl. Like, look at the way you've got him sitting. That's totally a girl pose." Spencer points out and it's only then that Cassie realizes that she has Jon's legs folded to the side, kind of like a mermaid style sitting. "Doesn't that hurt his balls?" Spencer adds and Cassie blushes as she unfolds the boy's legs straight out in front of her.
"Fine, how does Jon sit?" Cassie questions and if Spencer anwsers 'Like a guy.' She might just kill him. Spencer is grinning which is a nice thing, he should grin more often. She wants to tell him that but part of her is afraid he'll go all bitchface on her.
"Let me show you." Spencer tells her and he leans over and touches Jon's knee, making Cassie jump in surprise. "Put this leg up." The boy informs her and Cassie follows, putting Jon's foot flat on the floor so his one leg was up and his other was down. "And this one too." Spencer adds his hand sliding to the thigh of Jon's still straight leg. Cassie jumps and unconciously smacks his hand away but moves Jon's legs up.
"Sorry about smacking you." She apologizes quickly but Spencer shakes it off.
"Now put your arms like this." Spencer says, grabbing Jon's arms and putting them elbow to kneecap. It's not at all a comfortable position to sit, with Jon's legs spread and his arms up too high to be natural. Cassie eyes Spencer after a moment.
"This is how Jon sits?" She asks suspicion in her voice. Spencer laughs and shakes his head.
"No, I just wanted to see if you would do it." He tells her and he's laughing and Cassie maybe pouts a little.
"You know I'm bigger than you right? I could totally beat you up." She tells him and Spencer laughs again.
"I don't think you would. You're like way too nice."
"I'm ignoring the compliment because I am still mad at you." Cassie informs him and Spencer settles down next to Jon's body.
"I'm sorry I tricked you into sitting in an entirely hilarious position." Spencer says and she's thinking that that really is the best she can expect from him.
"Fine I forgive you." She tells him and something about this exchange makes her really miss her own friends and reminds her that really, she shouldn't be here. "Do you think I'll be stuck like this forever?" Cassie is asking moments later, her head tipped back on the pillows. She glances over at Spencer when all she recieves is silence. It looks like he's thinking before she shrugs and moves his gaze to Jon's face.
"What more do you think you can do besides wishing for it all to go back?" The boy questions and now Cassie shrugs. "Besides, it's not such a bad life is it? You got to kiss Brendon and Pete in the same week. I've met girls that would kill for that." Spencer informs her and she believes him without a doubt.
"Good for me yeah, but what about Jon? I doubt he wants to live the rest of his life as a girl." She points out. Spencer nods and wraps a hand around her shoulder.
"Don't worry, we'll think of something. But I also want to ask you something." Spencer tells her and now she's nervous because Spencer's arm is around her and he has a very mob bossish kind of quality going on right now.
"What?" Cassie says Jon's voice tumbling out from her and she'll never quite get used to it.
"Between Pete and Bren, who kisses better?" Seriously? That's the question he wanted to ask?
"Don't you already know?" Cassie teases but she kind of already assumed that massive orgies take place on the Fueled By Ramen label so hearing other wise is surprising. Spencer narrows his eyes at her before he shakes his head.
"Contrary to popular beliefe, no, I do not know."
"Well, I mean, it's not really whose better but their styles." Cassie tells him.
"Okay, so, whose style is better?" Spencer presses and Cassie eyes him supiciously but anwsers all the same.
"Well, Pete is rougher, lot's of tongue, bites more. Brendon, he's softer, wetter, licks more." Cassie tells him and Spencer is staring at her with dark eyes and his lip between his teeth.
"Did you ever think about kissing Ryan?" Spencer questions, his voice is husky. Cassie blinks at him a few times before she shrugs.
"I guess, a few times maybe..not like i obsess over it or anything." She replies. Spencer nods and swallows and again Cassie feels a little nervous.
"Do you...ever think about kissing me?" He says voice dry and she has to remind herself that he's looking at Jon, seeing Jon but knowing that Jon's not who he's talking to. Pink flushes Jon's face, Cassie is sure the boy has never blushed as much as this week.
"Um..yeah." God, this has got to be one of the most awkward conversations she's ever been in. "Do you ever think about kissing Jon?" Cassie asks Spencer and this time the boy is taken aback. He's silent for a moment before he nods.
"Yeah." And maybe he's leaning in closer than he was before and their eyes are locked.
"Do you think we-" Cassie's words are cut off by Spencer's lips closing over her's, Jon's, whatever. If Cassie had known that switching bodies with Jon would mean that his remaining bandmates could take it as their opportunity to make out with his body well, Cassie kind of forgets her train of thought when Spencer's tongue slips into her mouth.
His hands are pawing at Jon's chest and the boy seems to be stuck between pushing Jon's body down or pulling it up so that they're closer. Cassie wonders what Ryan would think of this, or Brendon, or hell even Jon himself. He probably wouldn't be happy that Cassie is practically slutting him around and making out with his friends, but than again maybe he'd be flattered.
Spencer's fingers tangle in Jon's hair and pulls him closer. Spencer kisses different from either Pete or Brendon. He's much more agressive and sure but Cassie can't breath after awhile. They break apart and she's panting, ducking Jon's head and looking up at the younger boy through thick lashes.
"I. Well, that was...god, this really is like the gayest band in the world." She states after a moment, Jon's cheek's pink, matching Spencer's. The youngest in the band laughs and runs a hand through his hair.
"lets not tell Ryan about this." Spencer says and Cassie nods, she is all for not having an extreamly pissed off Ryan Ross after her. "Or Jon." He adds and again she won't say anything to him either because having Jon Walker hating her would be like the worst thing in the world.
Cassie and Spencer settled down to actually watch the movie Spencer put on but Cassie fall's asleep pretty quickly, passed out against Spencer's arm with Brendon still warm behind her.
*****************************************************************************
Jenny and Krissy decide to spend the night with Jon again. This time they really grill him with stories about his life with Panic. They talk about other stuff too like book's and people in the school, the music industry and the two girl's tell Jon little bit's and pieces about Cassie's life.
It's around nine in the morning when Jon wakes up because he feels wet and sticky down between Cassie's legs. He throws back the blue comforter that belongs to the girl and screams. He probably overreacted looking back on it. Deep crimson stains the shorts that Jon had put on the girl before he went to bed last night. It also happens to stain the sheets and the blanket he had been using to cover up.
"Shit! Shit! I'm bleeding!" Jon shout's and he's out of the bed and standing on the floor feeling slightly alarmed and disgusted. Krissy cracks an eye open and she sits up, looking tired and pissed off, she kind of scares Jon. Jenny's eyes too flicker open but she looks way more confused than Jon's expecting.
"What?" Krissy asks, voice flat.
"I'm bleeding...it's, I don't know why though." Jon states he doesn't feel hurt, he didn't do anything to cut Cassie's body. Krissy rolls her eyes at him.
"Isn't it obvious?" She asks and Jon shakes his head. "Apparently it's Cassie's time of the month." The blonde girl tells him and Jon crinkles Cassie's nose.
"That is fucking disgusting." He sighs, now he really doesn't like being a girl because ew, no, that's just wrong. People shouldn't just start to bleed like that.
It's around this time that Jenny sits up, groggy and blinks at Jon a few times, maybe eyes the bright red stain on the shorts. She turns and looks at Krissy too blinking slowly. Jenny's forehead crinkles in deep thought and she looks down at herself before she starts screaming.
*****************************************************************************
Cassie wakes up to a loud screaming in Spencer's house, a screaming she doesn't recognise but apparently Spencer does because he's leaping up and Cassie is falling off of him and on to the floor. She sits up and Brendon's got his hands wound around Jon's waist. Cassie pushes him away gently but he moves and proceeds to wake up as well. Screaming still issuing from somewhere in the house.
"S'going on?" He asks sleepily and Cassie shrugs.
"Someone's screaming or something." She replies to him.
"Ryan, what the hell is wrong with you?" Spencer is asking along with "Pete, what the fuck did you do to my best friend?" Cassie get's up and pad's across the floor, peering around corners incase the boys had been caught in compromising positions.
Suddenly a flash of pale white is flying at Cassie and she's hit hard by a rail thin boney body. Ryan. "Ryan? What are you doing?" Cassie asks, because one Ryan is so very naked right now and two, he's looking up at Jon with big wide eyes.
"Cassie?" Ryan's voice questions and she nods.
"I didn't change back yet." She informs him. Ryan's eyes grow larger if that's even possible and now even Brendon is paying attention.
"No, Cassie! No, it's me! It's Jenny!" Ryan says excitedly, jumping up and down, Ryan's hands hooking over Jon's arms and gripping tight.
chapter eleven: The Naked Ross Or Wow, Jenny Can Switch Bodies Too
"Excuse me?" Cassie is asking, staring down at Ryan's face and trying so desperately not to look at the lyricists dick. Ryan bounces again and he's nodding.
"I'm serious! Cassie, it's me for real, it's Jenny!" Ryan is talking so fast and with so much more emotion than Cassie'e ever heard in the boy before. She's so tempted to believe but part of her is thinking that this is some elaborate joke that Pete planned some point between last night and this morning.
"Oh my god! You don't believe me? I believed you when you told me you were Jon!" Ryan pouts at her. Maybe Ryan's just a really good actor. "Okay, okay, I know how to prove it." Ryan or possibly Jenny starts. "My middle name is..." He stops for a beat before he sighs and continues. "Geralynn." He finishes. Okay, so maybe Ryan's a mind reader too.
"Oh my god! It's really you!" Now Cassie's all excited and bouncy too and Pete Wentz is laughing his ass off in the hallway because this is all just too funny. "How? How the hell did this happen? How did you wind up in Ryan's body...and why are you naked?" Cassie rambles out.
"Oh yeah, I'm naked! Look at my cock Cassie!" Jenny starts and she's looking down at not so lil' Ryan, Cassie's eyes following and blushing as she does so. "Look how big it is! It's fucking epic! Way bigger than yours I bet." She rushes out. Ryan's hands snaking to Jon's waistband and Jenny is trying to pull open Jon's pants, Cassie knocking Ryan's hands away.
"So, Ryan's a nudist now?" Brendon yawns from his position on the floor. Jenny whips Ryan's head to look at Brendon and the boy's brown eyes widen drastically before She's rushing over and jumping on top of Brendon, naked parts flopping through the air. Brendon squawks as Ryan's body smushes him to the floor but at least there's a blanket between them.
"Cassie! Help! Naked Ryan is trying to kill me!" Brendon yells, arms flailing and Jenny is laughing. Spencer and Pete come up and stand on either side of Cassie. Pete watching with intense amusement and Spencer looking like he just might cry.
Ten minutes later Cassie manages to get Jenny to put some pants on, the same ones that Ryan had worn last night. She had also managed to get Jenny to sit down next to her on the couch, the two of them facing each other and sitting indian style. Brendon is sitting behind Jon's body on the couch, watching his two former bandmates who now happen to be posessed by teenaged girls.
Spencer is milling around and panicking Pete tries to make band name jokes but Spencer glares at him before he can finish the first one. Jenny has Ryan's hands on Jon's knees and what has happened finally seems to sink in because she's just sorta staring at Cassie.
"I can't believe you're Jon Walker...I can't believe that I'm sitting across from Jon Walker!" Jenny mumbles out, the girl has never been a big fan of Jon but Cassie's betting that just the fact of being around them is mind blowing no matter who it is.
"But it's just me, it's just Cassie." The girl replies, Jon's voice echoing around the room. Brendon hooks his chin over Jon's shoulder and smiles at Jenny.
"What am I chopped liver?" He questions and Jenny stares at him with Ryan's big eyes. She makes a squealy kind of noise that is very odd coming from Ryan's lithe form and ducks Ryan's head, cheeks pink. Apparently Brendon can make Jenny blush.
"Cassie, Brendon is all over you right now! How the hell are you remaining calm?" Jenny asks, Ryan's voice holding much more emotion than usual. Ryan's eyes are wide and she's staring at Brendon and grinning like an idiot. Cassie shrugs, turns her head a little to look at the singer.
"I dunno. Maybe I just got used to it?" She says, being around them day after day with Brendon clinging to her constantly. She's just used to it by now. Ryan/Jenny looks taken aback by that. "Anyway, how did this happen? I don't get it." Cassie asks again. Jenny wriggles around with an uncomfortable face.
"What's wrong?" Brendon asks, his chin still hooked over Jon's shoulder and his hands on Jon's arm.
"My ass hurts." Jenny complains and they hear Pete laugh.
"My bad." He calls from his position in Spencer's kitchen. Cassie makes a face while Brendon tries to bite back laughter because Spencer is offically on the warpath. Jenny though, she blinks a few times as what Pete says sinks into her. Ryan's cheeks turn red and Jenny makes a whining noise. She probably already knew that sex with Pete Wentz had happened considering that she woke up in Spencer's guest bedroom with Pete curled around Ryan's body.
"I wished for this." Jenny says, Ryan's voice sounding monotone once again.
"You wished for sex with Pete?" Brendon asks and Cassie rolls Jon's eyes.
"You wished to be Ryan?" She asks instead, clueing Brendon into the situation. Jenny has Ryan's hands folded in his lap and she's looking down at them, maybe getting used to her new body.
"I wished to help you." Jenny explains, Ryan's hands coming up to tug on the end of his jagged bangs. Cassie tilts Jon's head because she doesn't get it. Whoever happens to be granting these wishes really has a terrible way of going about it. "I wished that I could help you come home."
"But you made it worse." Spencer says from the kitchen. The three boys turning to look at him from the couch. His hands are on his hips and he's glaring at them. "It was fine when it was just Jon but now it's Ryan...and somehow we've been cursed by having magical teenagers switching our bodies all around." Spencer bitches, Jenny looks kind of hurt, Ryan's face easily showing emotion. Cassie can't blame her because it's not her fault that she changed into Ryan and Spencer shouldn't make her feel bad for it.
"Spencer, quit being a dick." Brendon says, his pouting face turned towards Spencer.
"Yeah, you're probably coming off as a huge asshole to the new fangirl." Pete adds and Spencer is full blown bitchfacing now.
"That's my best friend!" Spencer points out. Cassie shakes her head.
"No, that's my best friend who just happens to be in your best friend's body!" She retorts. Spencer sighs and throws his hands in the air in an obvious The-World-Is-Now-Insane-And-I-Give-Up type fashion. The youngest boy strides away, presumably to his room where he'll probably glower. Pete follows after Spencer, throwing the remaining three members of Panic an apologizing look before he disappers down the hall.
"You okay?" Cassie asks Jenny moments later. Ryan...or Jenny looks up at her and nods, Ryan's bangs rippling across his cheek. She's staring at Cassie with eyes that suddenly widen.
"Oh my god. Cassie! We should totally make out!" Jenny suggests moments later. Cassie's eyes widen as does Brendon's.
"Um? What?" In all there years in knowing each other she and Jenny had never done anything like that..if you didn't count the time she maybe, possibly straddled Jenny on the younger girl's living room couch. Jenny is nodding Ryan's head enthusiastically.
"Yeah, neither of us are girls so it won't be weird! And you always said that if I was a dude you'd make out with me." Jenny argues and Brendon is now laughing at the two of them. All Cassie can do is repeatedly open and close Jon's mouth.
"Yeah, but you're not just a dude...you're Ryan Fucking Ross!" Cassie states.
"Like you haven't done it already!" She argues and Cassie shakes Jon's head.
"Not with Ryan!" She replies and Ryan's lips quirk.
"So, you have with Spencer and Brendon?" She's asking, it's a lot harder to read Jenny now that she's in Ryan's body. Cassie blushes and crosses Jon's arms.
"I don't wanna talk about it."
"I heard her making out with Spencer last night." Brendon half whispers and Jenny is laughing.
"So, how would I be any different?" Jenny questions and she leans forward, bringing Ryan's face close to Jon's, close enough for Cassie to feel Ryan's breath.
"I'll make out with you!" Brendon half shouts and Ryan's eyes flicker to Brendon's face. She looks surprised but she nods.
"Okay." She says and makes Ryan lean forward so that she's closer to Brendon's face, Cassie stuck between them. Cassie put's Jon's hands on Ryan's chest and pushes Jenny backwards away from Brendon. Just then they hear Spencer yell from the back of the house.
"Dear god, just get away from me Pete!" Spencer shouts and Cassie looks at Brendon and Jenny before she get's off the couch
"Don't touch each other while I'm gone." Cassie tells the two people on the couch before she heads to the room where she thinks Spencer is.
"Where are you going?" Brendon and Jenny ask at the same time, their eyes trained on Cassie. She turn's back to look at them for a moment.
"I'm going to give Spencer your cell phone number Jenny. So he can call Ryan."
"Oh that's a good idea..I didn't even think to call myself." Jenny mumbles out, subconciously running Ryan's hands up and down his own chest. Cassie rolls her eyes and heads back to where she thinks Spencer's room is. She knows she's in the right spot when she see's Pete standing outside of a closed door.
Even though her best friend changed into Spencer's best friend, Cassie is still taken aback by Pete's presence in the house. Just because this world got crazier doesn't mean it stops being surprising. The dark haired boy eyes her in an amused manner. "Okay, not that I don't think Ryan Ross actually being a girl is hilarious and all but Spencer is really pissed off...and they sorta have shows and shit to perform." Pete tells her. Cassie nods because she can't think of anything good to say to him. He's really fucking intimidating.
"I'd better go make sure those two aren't getting into any trouble." Pete tells her and he excuses himself, heading back to the living room where she left Brendon and Jenny all alone. Cassie watches him go for a moment before she knocks on Spencer's bedroom door.
"Go the fuck away Pete!" Spencer yells.
"It's...Cassie.." Jon's voice comes out sounding too shaky, because honestly she's nervous.
"What now? Brendon switched bodies with a dog or something?" Spencer questions and Cassie has to bite back a laugh.
"No, I wanted to give you Jenny's cell phone number...so you could call Ryan." She says softly, maybe she's just noticed that Jon has a slight lisp too. Cassie can hear thumping from inside the room before Spencer pulls the door open, grabbing Jon's t-shirt and tugging her inside too. He already has his cell phone out and he's looking at her expectantly.
Cassie gives him the number, Spencer's fingers typing out the number into his sidekick. She's standing awkwardly in the room like maybe she should go. Spencer looks up at her moments later, cocking his hips out and sighing. "Look, I didn't mean to be a dick to her but that's Ryan. That's my best friend, I've taken care of him since I was like six years old. You can't expect me to be okay with him being somewhere where I can't take care of him." Spencer tells her. Cassie is quickly realizing that this is Spencer Smith's form of apologizing and she kind of really wants to make 'Aww' noises at him.
Cassie nods Jon's head, wrapping his arms around Jon's body. "I get it but that person in Ryan's body is my best friend. That's my Ryan and I take care of her." Cassie explains to him. Spencer looks taken aback, maybe because people don't really argue with him all that often. He laughs quietly and ducks his head, nodding.
"Alright, as long as you can keep her in control and don't let her hurt his body." The boy tells her and now Cassie is the one nodding.
"It's a deal." She tells him, grinning what she hopes is a classic Jon Walker grin. Cassie leaves Spencer to call Ryan who Cassie just realized is in her best friend's body and is probably freaking out. Things are oddly quiet in the living room and that really can't be a very good sign so Cassie hurries down the hall, skidding into the living room slidding a little on Jon's socks.
She had good reason to be worried because there on the couch was Brendon and Ryan/Jenny making out, hot and heavy and Pete sitting by the couch just watching. "Pete!" Cassie yells in Jon's voice, Brendon and Jenny breaking apart. Pete turns around and eyes Jon.
"What?...it's hot." Pete explains like it's completly obvious. Cassie shakes Jon's head, hands slipping to Jon's hips. Despite the fact that it really is hot Cassie in all good concious can't let this happen because she just promised Spencer that she wouldn't let Jenny do something that Ryan wouldn't do and all things considered, she doesn't think Ryan would make out with Brendon shirtless and letting Pete watch.
"Jenny, come talk to me." Cassie says and she throws a pout on Jon's face. She's probably been hanging around Brendon too much. She hopes her pout is still affective as Jon as it is as Cassie. Jenny nods Ryan's head and she's scrambling all new long limbs and rail thin body.
*
Jon is still freaking out about having a period, standing in Cassie's room, bleeding into his shorts. That's already too much, he cannot handle Ryan being in Jenny's body. Ryan is standing and kind of pacing but more freaking out. His hands are in Jenny's hair, tugging slightly and eyes tearing up.
"What the fuck! What the fuck! WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?" Ryan is screaming in Jenny's voice, the girl's voice is almost ear splitting when Ryan is screaming and Jon makes a face. "What did you do to me Walker!" Ryan accuses, pointing Jenny's finger at Jon and glaring at him, Jenny is good at glaring.
"I didn't do anything Jen-" Jon almost call's Ryan Jenny and that seems to make him more upset. "Ryan, I didn't do anything to you. I didn't even wish for this." Jon says, coming forward and ignoring the horrible feeling in his underpants, Cassie's hand coming to rest on Jenny's shoulder.
Krissy was still sitting on her makeshift bed, staring up at the two people that were formerly her best friends. "I..so let me get this straight." Krissy starts, she's flickering her blue eyes between the two of them. Ryan turning his head and looking at her for the first time since he realized what had happened.
"Jon is still Jon and still trapped in Cassie's body." She says, her light voice straining to remain calm. Jon makes Cassie nod, he really wants this all to end so he can go and clean himself up and put a pad on and shit like that, though he might have to call Cassie and get her advice on the best way to achieve this. "And.." Krissy continues. "Ryan Ross is now in Jenny's body..." She trails off as Jon nods again.
Krissy stares for a few moments before she blushes pink and shakes her head. "I cannot be stuck with Jon Walker and Ryan Ross right now...this is..fuck this!" Krissy is saying and she's flopping back down and covering her face with her pillow. Jon thinks that she is not taking this well.
Ryan turns Jenny's gaze on to Jon, he makes a pouty face and makes Jenny's eyes really wide and earnest. "Who is she?" Ryan makes Jenny whisper, pointing at the form that is Krissy.
"That's our new BFF Krissy." Jon tells him. "And you're gonna stay here for a moment so I can go and change my pants." He adds. Jenny's eyes go wide and Ryan shakes Jenny's head, looking alarmed.
"No," He whispers. "I don't know her."
"Ryan...right now you don't even know yourself." Jon points out and that earns him another glare.
Luckily at that moment a cell phone starts ringing and thank god that Krissy is around to recognise it as Jenny's cell phone. She grabs the ruby red phone and flips it open.
"Hello?" She asks putting it on speaker phone as that has become the custom as of late.
"Ryan?" A voice asks, a voice that sounds very much like Spencer Smith is asking. Krissy's mouth drops and she stares at Ryan and Jon.
"Spencer!" Jenny cries out, sounding very overdramatic as he drops to Jenny's knees and snatches the phone away from Krissy. "Spencer, you gotta help me! Jon made me change too!" Ryan cries out, Jenny's voice loud in the room.
"No, I didn't Spence." Jon calls out. Now that Ryan has changed too, well, he sorta has to take care of the boy and try a little harder not to freak out himself. Now that Spencer has Ryan distracted Jon figures it would be a good time to go and change Cassie's pants. He glances at Krissy and motions toward's the door. The blonde girl nods and Jon scoops up some of Cassie clothes before he heads to the bathroom.
Cassie's brother is out in the living room and see's her passing by. "Hey." He says and Jon forces himself to stop and actually talk to the boy.
"Hmm?"
"What the hell was all that screaming about?" He asks, his face holding confusion. Cassie's face fall's blank as Jon scrambles to find an excuse to give to Cassie's brother.
"You know how Jenny gets." He states and the boy stares for a moment before he nods. Jon figures he's in the safe zone so he turns to head into the bathroom.
"Say hi to your aunt flo for me." Her brother adds and Jon sighs.
"I kinda hate you." He says only because he knows that sisters say those kind of things to their brothers.
Back in the bedroom Krissy is sitting nervously beside Ryan watching as he talks on the phone with Spencer. "Yes, Spence, I am a girl." Ryan states, his voice wobbly.
"I kinda figured. I mean when you started running around naked." Spencer replies and Jenny's mouth drops open.
"Oh, my god. Please tell me you're watching my body." Ryan asks and Spencer is silent making Ryan make a whiny noise, Jenny's voice is really good at producing odd noises.
"Umm."
"Spencer!" Ryan cuts him off, glowering at the phone.
"Relax Ry, Pete and Cassie are watching you."
Ryan takes a deep breath. "Spencer, I want you to think about what you just said." Again Spencer is quiet for a beat before he replies.
"Shit, you're right." They can hear Spencer getting off his bed and padding through his own house, going wherever Cassie, Jenny and Pete are. "But are you okay Ryan?" Spencer asks quietly, his voice taking on a serious tone. Ryan knows that Spencer is worried about him, that maybe Ryan won't be able to handle this kind of situation.
"I'll be fine Spence, I've got Jon here and...we'll think of something. I'll be back before you know it." Ryan tells him. Spencer gives a little laugh.
"I know but now I'm stuck with Brendon and two teenaged girls." Spencer half whines.
"Spencer! We need more eggs because I wanna make some omlettes!" They hear Brendon yell and Krissy kind of freezes up at the sound of her favorite members voice. Spencer sighs.
"Just..can't you just go?" Spencer asks.
"Oh! Can I go too?" They hear Ryan's voice yell through the phone line.
"Okay, that's fucking weird." Ryan mutters out and Krissy laughs. Hearing his own voice when he's not in his body is something Ryan will never get used to.
chapter twelve: Krissy's Jammies Or Slash Attack
Jon end's up having to take a shower, which is really gross and he sorta, really hates being a girl right about now. He also really wants to talk to his own body because as weird as it sounds, he's beginning to forget what his own voice sounds like. Jon at least hopes that Krissy is keeping Ryan under control.
When he get's back into Cassie's room, the girl in fresh clothes a newly acquired pad and Cassie's long brown hair wrapped up in a towel, he feels a little better. Ryan is sitting on Cassie's bed running hands through his new slightly longer hair. Krissy is back in her little makeshift bed, blanket pulled all the way up over her chest. Jon gives her an odd look, maybe she's hoping that she's dreaming this whole thing.
"Jon, how are you handling this so well?" Ryan question's, Jenny's blue eyes burning into Cassie's. Jon makes Cassie shrug.
"I'm just doing it. It's not that big of a deal...watch out for bra's though." He replies, looking over at Krissy again. "And what's wrong with you?"
Krissy sighs and sits up a bit. "I don't want Ryro seeing me in my jammies." She replies, cheek's tinged a light pink as she avoids both Jon and Ryan's gaze.
"You know what, my boob's are huge." Ryan says almost as an after thought, nodding Jenny's head and bringing her hands up to cup the girl's massive chest. Jon looks away from Ryan, turning his attention to Krissy.
"Him? You're worried about what he thinks? I mean have you even seen the way he dresses?"
"Hey!" Jenny's voice shout's. "You're just jealous Jon, because my boobs are way bigger than your's." Ryan huff's, attempting to flip Jenny's hair over the girl's shoulder.
"You know what Ryan, you're already pretty good at being a girl." Jon states, pressing Ryan's buttons and Jenny glares, Krissy laughs.
"Okay, I think we need to brief Ryan over Jenny's life. Don't you think Jon?" Krissy asks, it's surprisingly getting easier for her to call her friend's by their Panic names. Jon nods, letting Cassie's damp hair fall out of the towel.
"Hey Ry, wanna do me a favor?" Jon is asking, Cassie's light voice floating around the room. Jenny's face looks supicious.
"Like what Walker?"
"Wanna brush my hair?" Jon question's, offering up Cassie's brush to the boy.
Five minutes later and Krissy is seated on the floor of Cassie's bedroom, telling Ryan all about Jenny's life. Who the girl likes, who she doesn't, how he should act at school and what he should say to the girl's family.
Ryan is on Cassie's bed, kneeling behind Jon, who is also seated on the bed, and brushing Cassie's hair.
"Wait, I have to go to school?" He questions as he pulls the brush through Cassie's curly hair. Krissy is ignoring how weird this is, she is totally ignoring the fact that Ryan Ross is brushing Jon Walker's hair, or how creepy it still looks when it's Jenny brushing Cassie's hair.
"Grooming calm's him down." Jon had explained as he took a seat on the bed.
Krissy is learning way more about the Panic boy's then she ever thought she would.
*
Brendon is making breakfast as Cassie and Jenny sit at the table watching him.
"Are you handling this okay? Cassie asks Jenny. The girl directs her gaze from Brendon's ass to Jon's eyes.
"I think so." She nods Ryan's head. "You know how much I hate myself, so, yeah, I kinda like being someone else." The girl says in Ryan's monotone voice. Cassie makes Jon sigh. That was a problem Jenny had, she was way too hard on herself. "Plus I'm sexy now." She adds with a giggle, no, Cassie doesn't think that Ryan should giggle.
"Does that mean we can do oodles more stage gay now?" Brendon asks from his position over the stove.
"Hell yes!" Jenny makes Ryan crow out, jumping up and slamming the boy's large hand against Spencer's table. Brendon laughs and looks over his shoulder at them.
"What kind of guy uses the word oodles?" Cassie mutters. Jenny and Brendon both ignore her.
"I sorta love you girls." He coos and Jenny makes Ryan giggle again.
"Well, at least Krissy won't just hate me now." Cassie says as Jenny sits Ryan back down. She brings Ryan's hand down on top of Jon's, attempting to hold her hand. Cassie sighs and allows the action, now that she really thinks about it, having Jenny here is sorta like having two Brendon's.
"Oh yeah, she'll probably never talk to us due to our epic interaction with Brendon."
Brendon turn's back around, frying pan in hand as he stares at his bandmate's bodies.
"Whose Krissy?" He asks, throwing an adorable look on his face, one that make's both girl's emitt simultainious 'Awwing' noises.
"She's our other best friend." Cassie says "The one who isn't currently in one of your friend's bodies."
"She also has epic love for you." Jenny adds, Cassie making Jon shoot Jenny a look.
"Really? Oh man, we should totally call her like right now!" Brendon says, setting down the frying pan on the counter and fishing out his sidekick. Jenny laughs and Cassie crack's a smile. Jenny wind's up giving Brendon Krissy's cell phone number, the boy dialing excitedly in the kitchen.
"You know she's going to either love you for this..or kill you." Cassie tells her friend. Jenny shrugs Ryan's shoulder.
"It's so gonna be worth it though." Jenny whispers as Brendon puts the phone on speaker. It rings a few times before the light voice of Krissy picks up.
"Hello?" She asks, obviously not knowing who it is that's calling her.
"Is this Krissy?" Brendon asks, grinning like an idiot.
"Um, yes..who is this?" Krissy sounds apprehensive, which all things considered she has the right to be.
"This is Brendon Urie."
There's a silence on Krissy's line, Brendon trying hard not to giggle.
"Seri-seriously?" Krissy's light voice spill's out.
"Yeah, it really is, Jenny gave me your phone number and I just couldn't resist."
Again a silence before there's a kind of squealing noise and a thumping noise.
"Krissy?" Cassie can hear her own voice over the line. "Where are you going?" There's some shuffling before another person pick's up the phone.
"Brendon, is this really you?" It's Jenny's voice this time. Brendon quirk's an eyebrow.
"Whose this?" Brendon asks, Jenny's voice sigh's.
'That's me!" Jenny cries out in Ryan's voice.
"Oh, Ryan!" Brendon coos into the phone, propping his elbows on the counter and smiling. "How are you Ryro baby?"
"Don't call me that." Ryan threaten's.
"What happened to Krissy?" Cassie asks.
"She..she kind of ran away." Ryan tells them, trying to hold laughter out of Jenny's voice.
"Mmm, Ry, you sound sexy." Brendon says, his voice dropping low. Jenny makes Ryan's cheek's go pink.
"How come you never told me my voice is sexy?" Jenny asks Cassie, Cassie run's a hand through Jon's hair.
"Shut up Brendon." Ryan says, in Jenny's 'sexy' voice.
"Oh, you know I like it when you get all aggresive." Brendon teases, his voice low like Cassie remember's it from the night they fooled around. She really hope's Jenny doesn't notice that Jon's blushing.
"I'm not doing anything with you when I'm a girl." Ryan tells Brendon point blank, Brendon shrugs.
"Not important. Your boy body is here and it's already clear that she's more than willing." Brendon replies Jenny scoff's.
"You make it sound like I'm easy!" Jenny cries out.
"My voice sounds...weird." Ryan says, Brendon laughs.
"Maybe because there's actually some emotion in it now?" The singer teases.
"Brendon Boyd Urie, don't you dare lay a perverted finger on my body while I'm not in it!" Ryan growls out.
"That's no fun!" Jenny pout's.
"Not to mention it's a little late for that." Brendon mutter's out. Jenny's voice makes a choking kind of sound.
"Where's Spencer?" Ryan seethes.
"Um, he went to the store." Cassie says in Jon's voice.
"Oh, I was starting to wonder where I was." Cassie can hear her own voice say.
"Hi Jon!" Jenny chirp's in Ryan's voice.
"Look Ryan, don't worry okay? I promised Spencer that I would watch Jenny while she's in your body." Cassie says, Jon's voice sounding calm admist all the chaos, Jenny makes Ryan scoff.
"Oh right, this coming from the girl who let Brendon go down on her." Ryan says, there's a brief silence.
"You let Brendon give you a blow job?!" Jon says the same time as Jenny.
"And since when are you Spencer's lap dog?" Jenny says before she gasps, "You're trying to make Joncer real!" She cries out.
"Joncer?" Ryan replies, confusion in Jenny's voice.
"I am not! You know I support Jondon."
"Oh my god, this is the best conversation ever." Brendon laughs.
"So, I support Ryden, let me have my Ryden, Cassie please!" Jenny drops down on Ryan's knee's, hands coming up in a begging position and big pleading Ryan eyes burning into Cassie's.
"Brendon, Brendon please tell me I did not just hear the word Ryden." Ryan whines in Jenny's voice.
"Oh yeah, I like where this is going. Bow chicka wow wow." Brendon laughs softly.
"No, no more pairing's, no more couple names!" Ryan shout's in Jenny's voice, Cassie rolls Jon's eyes.
"Whatever, you guys' make it waaay too easy." Cassie says and Jenny laughs in Ryan's voice.
"Totally, the slash pratically write's itself." Jenny adds.
"Speaking of slash..we should go read some until Spencer get's back." Brendon suggests, Ryan's eyes light up and Jenny nods Ryan's head.
"Yes, lets do that."
"No, Brendon-Brendon no!" Ryan shout's in Jenny's voice, it kind of sounds like he's trying to scold a dog. Cassie sigh's the same time as her own voice.
"It doesn't matter Ryan, you can't stop him." Jon is pointing out.
"If you want, I'll read it to the two of you." Brendon asks, Ryan makes an angry noise before there is a click and the line goes dead. Brendon set's his sidekick down and turn's off the stove before he and Jenny prance, honest to god prance over to the couch where Brendon's laptop is sitting. The two of them curl up close to one another, Jenny quickly sinking into familarity with Brendon and this whole situation.
"Are you coming Cassie?" Brendon call's, Jenny giggling as she rest's Ryan's head on the singer's shoulder. Cassie should be weirded out that Brendon read's slash, that Ryan knows some of the pairing name's and she definitly shouldn't be reading about someone whose body she is in but really, she's only human and she cannot resist the call of some good slash.
chapter thirtheen: Babysitting At The Disco Or Boob Battle
Reading slash was a bad idea, sure it was funny at first to hear Brendon spouting out the paticularly funny line's but then it got weird and by weird, Cassie mostly mean's really fucking hot. It was bad because Spencer still wasn't back yet and now the three of them (mostly Brendon and Jenny) were all riled up.
It took a surprisingly short amount of time for the idea of a threesome to come up. It was Brendon who suggested it, setting his laptop aside and looking at the two girl's who were occupying his best friend's bodies. "You know what we should do." He start's, eyes drifting from Jenny to Cassie.
"What?" Jenny asks, Ryan's voice low, Cassie assumes this is how he sounds when he's turned on. Brendon lets a smirk slide on his adorable face.
"I'm thinking totally hot threesome." He says, there's only a second of silence before the two girl's anwser.
"Hell yes!" Jenny cries out at the same time as Cassie says 'No'. Jenny and Brendon both look at Cassie /Jon.
"Come on Cassie, it will be fun!" Jenny says, prodding Jon's side with Ryan's elbow.
"This is like...so wrong on so many level's." Cassie start's dropping Jon's forehead into his hands. The girl can hear shuffling before she feels warm hands on Jon's shoulder's, the girl looks up to see Brendon staring at her with lustful eyes and a pout.
"Please." He says, god, Cassie really wants to, she really does because Brendon is way to hard to resist but her promise to Spencer is washing over her mind as is the basic rule that Ryan had given her the day of the disasterous interview, 'Just do whatever Brendon wants.' Cassie is more than sure that he'd probably object that now if he were actually in his body.
Brendon leans past Ryan's body, Jenny watching with Ryan's widened eyes. "Please." He asks again, mouth close to Jon's. They're seconds away from kissing, she's a milisecond from giving in, when the door to Spencer's house open's and the youngest of the band steps into the living room, freezing upon seeing the three people on the couch.
There's a span of three second's before he start's shouting.
In the end Spencer punishes Brendon by making the singer stay in the kitchen with him, while he banishes Cassie and Jenny back to one of the many rooms in the house.
"Spencer's house is pretty sweet." Jenny says as she zip's up one of the many clandestine hoodies that Spencer has laying around.
"I know right? We should totally ask if we can have one of these." Cassie says, flipping the hood up over Jon's head.
"Or we could just steal them." The girl suggests and Cassie laughs.
"So, it's come down to thievery already?"
Jenny makes Ryan laugh as she studies the sleeve of the hoodie she's wearing.
"So...you really got a blow job from Brendon?" She asks, Ryan's voice falling low and maybe this conversation is heading in a serious direction.
"You know Spencer has a pinball machine right?" Cassie tries to change the subject but it doesn't work.
"Seriously Cassie?" Jenny sounds amused or maybe a little unbelieving.
"Me? Little miss sweet and innocent? Never." Cassie replies, a grin on Jon's face as she moves his body to go and sit down on the guest bed in the room.
"You are so not innocent." Jenny replies, making Ryan laugh as she moves to sit next to Cassie.
"And whose fault is that?" Cassie point's out, Jenny makes Ryan laugh again.
"Not me, I'm just an innocent rockstar." Jenny says, as she lay's back on the bed, stretching out Ryan's small frame, making the hoodie ride up to reveal a flash of pale flat stomach. Cassie follow's suite and drops down next to Ryan's body. Cassie is still kind of tired, what with having drank too much the night before and getting woken up before she was ready by Jenny changing into Ryan.
"I should've guessed that you'd go after Brendon." She hear's Ryan's voice say.
The girl closes Jon's eyes and fold's the boy's arms behind his head. "No way, he came on to me. Apparently Jon and Brendon fool around like, all the time." Cassie inform's her best friend.
"Okay, ew, I want it to be Ryden not Jondon."
Cassie shrugs, "It's not Brendon's fault that Jon is so much sexier than Ryan."
Jenny scoff's, "In your dream's."
"Not quite because I'm awake right now and I'm still sexier than you."
Jenny laughs but then the two of them fall silent, if Cassie tries hard enough she can hear Brendon and Spencer talking in the kitchen, Spencer probably still chiding Brendon about his attempt at a threesome. It take's a few minutes before Jenny break's the silence.
"So, I'm thinking you should kiss me." Ryan's voice mutter's very close to Jon's ear.
Okay, that was really random.
Cassie crack's open one of Jon's warm brown eyes and looks at her best friend/Ryan Ross.
"Say what?" Jenny turn's on her side, prop's Ryan's body up on his elbow, his large hand resting under his own chin.
"Come on, we're guys' so it's okay."
"But we're best friend's."
"Which makes it even more okay." Jenny says, now Cassie is propping Jon's body up too, staring at Ryan/Jenny with intense eyes.
"What happens when we're not guys'? Won't it be awkward?"
Jenny scoff's, "No because it won't be the same. Right now we're not Cassie and Jenny, we're Jon and Ryan and we can make out." Cassie thinks about it hard, does it still count if they're not in their own bodies? She doesn't think it does and it's Ryan...but it's still Jenny too.
"I just don't want you to regret it."
"Please, the only thing I am regretting is that you didn't change into Brendon so I could be kissing him instead of Jon."
Again Cassie is silent as she thinks it over, Ryan watching her....Jenny watching her, Finally Cassie give's in with a sigh.
"Alright, just a kiss." She says, the words barely leaving her mouth before Jenny is nodding and leaning forward. Cassie sits Jon up, leans forward and presses their lips together, it's a pretty innocent kiss. Cassie break's the kiss and sits back, Jenny frowning at her. "What? I said A kiss, just one."
"Oh come on!" Jenny argues, keeping her voice low so that Spencer doesn't hear. "That was like a little kid kiss, at least give me some tongue!"
"I cannot believe I am having this conversation with you." Cassie starts, "Even though one day I knew I would." She adds, Jenny rolls Ryan's eyes.
"Shut up and kiss me." She request's, moving forward quickly and she has Ryan push forward, push Jon down on to his back and their mouth's are connected.
It really isn't as awkward as Cassie had expected. Maybe because it still hasn't sunk in that Ryan is now Jenny, maybe she's just picturing Ryan, maybe Jenny is just picturing Jon.
Their one kiss with tongue turn's into several kisses, which turn's into heavy making out. Jenny is being way more aggressive than Cassie, taking the postion of the dominate one but Cassie is kind of okay with that because Ryan has a nice mouth and he has nice hands that keep touching Jon's face.
Eventually they break apart to breath, Jon's cheek's tinged pink and Jenny is making Ryan smirk.
"Was it good for you?" Jenny teases, Cassie's panting slightly.
"Shut up." She says it playfully because she can't be mad at Jenny, even if they did just make out because hell, their friendship was already bording on slightly innapropriet anyway, why not make it offical. Cassie eye's Ryan's body before she start's to laugh.
"What?" Jenny asks, Ryan's dark eyes looking confused.
"You..you totally have a boner." Cassie laughs out, Jon's laugh loud in the room. Jenny looks down at Ryan's lap where, yeah, there is totally a noticeable boner. Jenny goes slightly pink.
"Yeah, well, so do you." She point's out. Cassie barely looks down, she already knew that Jon was hard, she's fairly used to it by now.
"Yeah but guys' get hard so easily...like the wind blow's and boom! I'm hard." Cassie says.
Jenny laughs, "Jwalk boner's." Cassie rolls her eyes.
"If you ignore it and don't think about anything remotely sexy, it eventually goes away." She tells Jenny, a task that should be damn near impossible for the younger girl.
"Ah, we should totally jerk off!" Jenny suggests a little too loudly, Cassie laughing despite how she knows that her best friend is serious.
"You are like a super sexual guy." The girl in Jon's body tells the girl in Ryan's. Jenny shrugs Ryan's narrow shoulder's.
"I vote for the jerking off..or maybe blow job's?" They hear a voice say, Cassie turn's to see Brendon leaning against the frame of the door, watching with a smile and dark eyes.
"I'm with Brendon." Jenny says, Cassie ignores both of them.
"How long have you been there?" She asks the black haired boy.
"Right before the making out occuried and all through it, which was fucking hot by the way." Brendon tells them, moving into the room and sitting on the edge of the bed. "So, blow job's?" He asks as he lick's his lips.
"Yes please." Jenny says, moving closer to Brendon.
Before any blowing can commence there's footstep's heading toward's the room where the three of them are sitting. Spencer peer's into the room, throwing his bitchface on and his hands sliding to hips hips.
"I knew there was no way you could be in the bathroom for fifteen minutes." Spencer says, his eyes narrowed at the three of them. "What's going on back here?" He asks, his pale blue eyes scanning the three 'boys' on the bed.
"We're just talking." Brendon says way too innocently, Spencer rolls his eyes.
"Right and that's why Ryan and Cassie are hard." He point's out, Cassie make's a squeaky noise and cover's Jon's lap, Jenny making no such attempt. The other three member's of Panic At The Disco are silent, staring at Spencer with big eyes and Spencer sigh's.
"Just get in the kitchen and eat." He tells them, pinching the bridge of his nose like a long suffering mother with unruly children.
*
Jon was standing in Cassie's bedroom when Krissy came back, peering her blonde head around the corner of the door, like she was afraid more member's of Panic might be in there. Ryan was now sitting on Cassie's freshly stripped down bed, Jon having to wash the now bloody sheet's.
"Did they hang up?" Krissy asks, her light voice nervous. Jon nods.
"Yeah, why did you freak out?" Jon asks, though he has a pretty good idea considering that she was talking to Brendon. Krissy pink's and run's a hand through her hair.
'This whole situation isn't exactly easy." The girl point's out, Jon glances over at Ryan, who has his hands running through Jenny's short dark hair. Yeah, it hasn't exactly been easy for any of them.
"I get it." Jon replies in Cassie's voice. Krissy sigh's and dig's around in a bag next to her makeshift bed, she pulls out some clothes before she looks up at Jon.
"But Jenny's okay right?" She asks, Jon nods Cassie's head.
"From that phone conversation I'd say she was perfectly fine." Jon tells her, Krissy gives a little laugh as she stands erect, her clothes in hand.
"Look, I'm going to go get dressed and when I come back we need to go over somethings." The blonde girl tells her two 'friend's'. Jon nods and glances at Ryan who seem's to be stuck in deep thought, Jenny's fingers wound into her own hair. Krissy too glances at Ryan before she leaves the room to go and get changed.
"What sort of things are we going to go over?" Ryan asks, in Jenny's voice. Jon gives a little shrug and plop's down next to Ryan on the bed.
"She'll probably end up telling you about Jenny's life. You know, what you should and shouldn't do and who you like and don't like at school."
"Oh," Ryan starts, dropping Jenny's chin into her hand he makes the girl look over at Jon. "Wait..school?" Jenny's face has taken on a slightly panicked look, Jon knows that Ryan's on edge now, the younger boy hadn't liked school much the first time and now he had to do it again?
"We're in high school." Jon clarifies. Ryan make's a stricken face.
"Are you in my classes?" Ryan is asking, worry evident in Jenny's voice.
"You're a sophmore, Cassie and I are senior's." A voice issues from the doorway, it's Krissy and she's newly changed into a t-shirt and skinny jean's.
"Okay, that's just not fair." Ryan pout's crossing Jenny's arms across her ample chest.
Jon laughs and Krissy blow's off Ryan's statement, continuing to talk instead.
"You'll probably have to call Jenny's mom." She continues, Ryan open's the girl's mouth to say something but the blonde girl keep's going. "You know, just so she knows you're okay."
"I can't be around someone I don't know..." Ryan says softly, Jon knows this too, knows that Ryan has a slight problem around people and enviroment's he doesn't know. It make's the lyricist very uncomfortable. Krissy nods sympathetically but doesn't really look like she feels too badly for Ryan.
"Look, just call her and tell her that Cassie is bummed out, ask her if you can just stay here a few more night's." The blonde girl tells them, it seem's like she's pretty adept at spinning a quick lie.
"Wait, why am I..I mean Cassie bummed out?" Jon interject's, Krissy turn's to him and sigh's.
"It's not really important is it?"
"What if she asks?" Ryan adds, again Krissy sigh's, throwing on a look of long suffering, a look that Ryan recongizes from Spencer's face.
"Just..just tell her that Patrick is sick or something." The blonde girl says, Jon make's Cassie's face go terrifed.
"Oh no!"
Ryan looks between Krissy and Jon, confusion written on Jenny's face.
"Why would her mom care if Patrick Stump is sick?" He asks, Krissy sigh's and end's up doing a face palm.
"Patrick is Cassie's cat...Ryan." Krissy looked like she wasn't used to calling him Ryan.
"Oh." Ryan says, once again resting Jenny's chin in the girl's hand.
"Patrick's really not sick is he?" Jon interject's once again, Cassie's eyes looking all watery.
"No Jon." Now Krissy is pinching the bridge of her nose, Jon's pretty sure she's doing a Spencer impersonation and a damn good one at that.
So, they have it settled that Ryan will call Jenny's mom and convince the woman to let her 'daughter' stay over at Cassie's house, it's way easier than it should be with Krissy feeding Ryan his line's. All they have to do is stop by to pick up some of Jenny's clothes.
Krissy decides to go home for awhile, Jon does not blame her. She leaves with a promise to call later and to be back in the morning to pick the two of them up for school, that leaves Jon and Ryan all alone. Jon's still sitting when Ryan stands, pulling at Jenny's t-shirt.
"What's your deal?"
Ryan looks at Jon with hard eyes, scary on Jenny's face.
"I feel like I'm wearing a freaken harness!" The boy complain's, Jenny's hands plucking at the back of Jenny's shirt, Jon's assuming that he's talking about the whole having to wear a bra thing.
"Yeah, bra's kind of suck but I think you have it worse because your boob's are bigger." Jon note's, grinning because just a little while ago Ryan was boasting about now having large breast's. Ryan make's a face.
"Well, just help me take it off or something." The boy make's Jenny complain again, promptly lifting the girl's shirt up.
"Dear god, Ryan." Jon says, trying to avoid looking at Jenny's chest, unlike Cassie, she isn't eighteen so it's probably very illegal to see her like that.
"Come on Jon, were both girl's." Ryan scoff's, Jon gives up and decides to help his friend so he'll stop bitching. Jon's not sure how to help, the extent of his bra knowledge only extending to taking them off so, it's not like he knows how to make it looser or anything but it couldn't be too hard, bra's aren't rocket science.
"Your boob's might be bigger but my bra is cuter." Jon teases, trying to adjust the bra strap's on Jenny/Ryan's bra. Ryan make's Jenny make a face.
"No way, let me see!" He command's, dropping Jenny's shirt and grabbing Cassie's tugging it up. Jon make's a noise of protest and tries to back up but Ryan get's the girl's shirt up revealing a pink leopard print bra. "Hmm," He starts, "It is cute." Ryan's not so subtlely staring at Cassie's chest, Jon feeling surprisingly offended.
"Stop looking at my chest."
Ryan meet's Jon eyes for a split second before he's looking back at Jon's boob's.
"She has a nice chest too...you should let me see them." Ryan's made Jenny's voice drop all low, Cassie's nose crinkles.
"You're a pervert."
"Alright, alright, at least let me feel them?" Ryan tries, Jon wonders if he's always this way when he's with women.
"No." Jon says, pulling away from Jenny's hand. Apparently Ryan doesn't consider no an anwser because he pushes his hands forward and he's got Jenny's hands fondling Cassie's boob's over the bra. Jon sigh's but gives in and he's ignoring the sparking feeling, he doesn't think Cassie would appreciate the sudden lesbian action.
"I fucking knew it." The two of them hear a voice say and Jon looks up to see Cassie's brother Timothy standing in the open doorway, yeah, they probably should've closed the door before the shirt lifting began.
"Whose that?" Ryan asks, Jenny's hands still on Cassie's chest.
Timothy is standing there smirking like he's figured something out.
"I always knew you two fooled around."
"No, no that's not what's happening." Jon attempt's to explain.
"Well, I mean I'm blind now because I saw my sister getting felt up by her best friend but the fact that I'm right totally make's up for it." He says, now shielding his eyes from the scene before him.
"No.." Jon's mind scrambles for a reason that this make's any sense at all.
"I was giving her a breast exam! She thought she felt a lump!" Ryan has Jenny say, it comes out sounding plauseable. Timothy make's a noise like he doesn't quite believe that statement.
"Yeah, it is breast cancer awareness month..." Jon adds, praying that he's either right or that her brother doesn't know the difference.
"You don't have to make excuses to me. You're here, you're queer, I'm used to it." He says before he laughs and leaves the doorway.
Ryan is distracted so Jon back's away, pulling down Cassie's t-shirt and glaring at Ryan.
chapter fourteen: Panic On The Tour Bus Or Ryan The Drama Queen
Cassie has taken to drinking coffee in the morning's, she drink's coffee because no one in the damn house will let her sleep in past ten in the morning. Usually it's Brendon waking up her because he need's his daily dose of Jon Walker, lately it's Jenny too, the older girl waking up to Ryan's lithe body sitting on top of her.
They're still at Spencer's house in Vegas, Cassie currently curled on the couch with Jenny and Brendon. Jenny being the only one not drinking coffee. Spencer comes into the room eyeing them and briefly looking like he's going to say something about the way they're all cuddled together, before he give's up and slides his hands to his hips.
"I just got a call from Pete." He says, he sounds a little more stressed than usual.
"Oh, what did he want?" Brendon asks, his head still pressed firmly on Jon's shoulder.
"Apparently we have a show tomorrow." The drummer is saying, he bite's his lips and sort of glares at Brendon who doesn't seem to be at all worried about this situation. Brendon doesn't anwser and Spencer stares at him expectantly until he does.
"Fun."
Jenny make's Ryan laugh and Spencer sigh's.
"No, Brendon, not fun. Did you happen to forget that we now have two member's in this band who cannot play insturment's?" Spencer's voice is rising higher, Cassie's starting to think that the boy is a few hour's away from going on a killing spree.
"Hey, I can play the guitar!" Jenny says defensively, Spencer turn's his gaze on her, his face softening as he looks at Ryan's body.
"But lets be honest, you can't play it at Ryan Ross level's." Cassie interject's, Jenny crosses Ryan's arms over his chest.
"So, we just have Pete and Joe fill in for them during this show." Brendon says with a shrug. Spencer pinches the bridge of his nose.
"It's our home show Bren, one of the most important one's! We all have to be there..." Spencer trail's off looking like a little kid who got his favorite toy taken away from him.
Before anything else can be said Spencer's cell phone ring's again, the drummer anwsering the phone.
Cassie can't really pay attention to the one-sided conversation. She is way too busy freaking out at the prospect of being on stage for one of the band's biggest show's. Jenny seem's to know that her best friend is now freaking out because she finds Ryan's hand pressing into Jon's.
"You alright?" She asks in Ryan's low voice. Cassie nods even though she isn't O.K., there's really no use in worrying the rest of them. Jenny rest's Ryan's head on Jon's other shoulder. "You're lying." She whispers, Cassie smirk's despite herself, apparently she's still easy to read, even as Jon.
"I'm seconds away from a panic attack." She admits, Jon's voice rumbling around pleasantly in his chest.
"It will be O.K. Were rockstar's, it will be awesome." Jenny doesn't sound so sure either but unlike Cassie, Jenny doesn't have a whole lot of shame, she has no problem going out and being crazy.
"You're right." She says, looking down at Ryan's smiling face.
"If you two keep doing that I'm going to get jealous." Brendon says from the other side of Jon's body. Both girl's turn to look at the young singer, whose staring at them with big brown eyes.
"Don't worry, we still love you Brenny." Cassie says and Jenny nods.
"Alright," Spencer says, turning his attention back to the three people on the couch. "So, I think I have an idea."
*
Jon knows that Ryan is really nervous on Friday morning. The younger boy is pacing a lot and he's gone over his outfit about a million or so time's, classic sign's that he's nervous about something. Jon is sitting on the bed tying Cassie's shoes up when he's finally get's sick of it, offering Ryan an eyeliner pencil. Ryan take's the pencil like it's a lifesaver and he's suddenly drowning, he instantly goes to the mirror and decorates Jenny's eyes with the make-up.
"Do you think my outfit looks alright?" Ryan asks as he does up his make-up. Jon looks at Jenny's body, she looks the same as always, band t-shirt and jean's. Ryan went all crazy and flat ironed the hell out of both of their hair, Jon hating the entire experience.
"You look great." Ryan make's Jenny smile and he's done with the eyeliner, turning and looking at Jon with a little smirk and big eyes. Jon knows that look, knows it even when Ryan isn't Ryan. "Go ahead." He sigh's and Ryan smiles, sitting down on the bed next to Jon and removing Cassie's glasses so he could put the eyeliner on Jon too.
"So," He starts as he carefully draws a thick black line under the girl's blue eyes. Jon doesn't care that he's a girl, he didn't even like this when he was a guy and Ryan had pleaded about it until Jon gave in. "Is there a guy at school that I have to pretend to be in love with?"
"Um..well, I think maybe there was a guy awhile ago." Jon replies, trying not to move so Cassie doesn't lose an eye.
"So I'm single now?" Jon couldn't tell if Ryan sounded upset or not.
"Well, no...I've been told that you're gay."
Ryan widen's Jenny's eyes drastically.
"I'm a lesbian?"
Jon nods, as far as the boy knows Jenny is sort of secretly dating a dark haired girl named Jordan.
"But I think it's a secret." The boy adds, he doesn't want to publicly out the girl. Ryan sigh's, upset that once again he has to hide the fact that he like's to be with the same sex. "Look at it this way Ry, now you can mess around with boy's and no one will say anything." Jon says with a smirk.
"Don't upset the person with the eyeliner." Ryan states.
Krissy show's up five minutes later to usher them to school, she looks surprised to see that Ryan has gone all total make over on both himself and Cassie's bodies.
"If I had known that you were giving out free hair straightening's I wouldn't have left." She joke's, Ryan smiles and reaches out a hand to touch the blonde girl's hair.
"Creepy Ross." Jon states from the bed, Ryan turn's back to look at Jon.
"I thought maybe she was my girlfriend."
Krissy sigh's and jingles her key's.
"I'll be out in the car."
*
Spencer's brilliant idea involved putting the four of them in one of Spencer's fancy car's and driving to some unknown location. Unknown because Spencer didn't want to tell them, no matter how much Brendon begged. Jenny was sitting up front with Spencer, maybe for the drummer's benefit or because that's what Ryan would usually do. Brendon and Cassie were in the back but they weren't fooling around like she might allow herself to do with the singer, maybe it was because Jenny was in the car? Or maybe just because she was still freaking out about performing tomorrow.
They drive for almost an hour, Brendon and Jenny fighting over radio channel's while Cassie hyperventilates. It's only then that Brendon seem's to take notice of her. "Hey, don't make those noises, I'll get excited." He says, sliding closer to Jon's body and snaking hands up on Jon's thigh's.
"Hey! That's not fair! If Cassie get's Brendon sex then so do I!"
Spencer peel's his eyes away from the road to glance back at Brendon.
"None of that today Brendon! We have important business to attend to." The drummer demand's.
"Fine." Brendon says with a pout, crossing his arms but still snuggling next to Jon. Not even Brendon being all adorable and pouty can't pull Cassie from her anxiety attack.
Five minutes later Spencer pulls up to a parking lot where two long tour buses are sitting. Cassie perk's up because she knows those buses, Jenny seem's to notice too because both girl's gasp. Brendon too is making a happy noise, waiting for Spencer to park the car.
"We're going to see Fall Out Boy?" Jenny cries from her position in the front seat. They've both already met Pete but hadn't hung around him nearly enough to not be all fangirly around the bassist and seeing the other members? Dear god, it's going to be a dream come true.
"Yeah, Pete agreed to teach you two some insturment's in the hope's that you'll pick up the songs by tomorrow." Spencer doesn't sound like he thinks this plan is going to work at all but it's really all they have at the moment.
Jenny turn's in her seat to stare at Cassie, Ryan's eyes are huge and he's bouncing up and down, Cassie too is grinning the two of them making little squealy noises like the fangirl's that they are.
"Come on." Spencer says, propping open his door. Brendon is laughing and he raises a finger in a wait a moment kind of fashion.
"Wait, let them have their fangirl moment." He states, Spencer figures he might as well let the girl's have there's, he still remember's when he had this same exact moment with Ryan, Brendon, and Brent after they met Pete Wentz for the first time.
After the fangirling is over with Spencer lead's them up to one of the buses, knocking with two excited 'boys' and a Brendon Urie behind them. Second's later the bus door is pulled open and Pete Wentz is standing there all huge grins and sidekick attached to his hand.
"Well, if it isn't my favorite little rockstar's." He says with a wink, Spencer rolls his eyes and pushes Pete back.
"You didn't tell the others about what's going on did you?" The brown haired boy whispers, Pete shakes his head.
"Promised I wouldn't." Pete says with that permagrin stuck on his face. Pete moves aside allowing all four boy's to come on to the tour bus. There's no one else on the tour bus that they can see and the space is horribly cramped with five people on board so Cassie really can't imagine any more people fitting on here.
"Well," Spencer start's, flipping his phone open and closed, a nervous habit the boy has. "I guess I'll go so, please try to actually teach them something and not just attempt to get in their pants." The boy says.
"Your starting to sound like their mother Spence." Pete joke's, Spencer pulls a face.
"You're leaving Spencer?" Cassie asks, it's not that she's scared without Spencer around it's just that she's come to look at him as the mother of the group, like their leader. The boy nods, flipping his phone again.
"Yeah, I'm going to stop by my parents house while Pete work's on you guys' but Brendon is staying here to make sure orgies don't ensue."
Cassie and Jenny exchange looks because Spencer is seriously trusting Brendon to not let orgies happen?
"I thought that's why I was here Pete?" A voice from the back says, all five people turn and they're face to face with the insanely adorable Patrick Stump.
"Oh, My. God...it's Patrick!" Cassie and Jenny squeal in unison and they're silent and still for around point five seconds before they mob the chubby singer, each girl clinging to his side, accidently knocking the cute singer back on to the couch.
"Um...hi...Jon...Ryan." Patrick mumbles out as both girl's cuddle against his side's. Pete is staring with a frown at the scene on the couch while Brendon giggles.
"Spencer, get your boy's off my Patrick." Pete almost growls out.
"There not dog's Pete." Spencer point's out, like he actually has the power to control what Cassie and Jenny do. Patrick is still smushed down on the couch confused as to why two member's of Panic At The Disco are snuggling him.
"Patrick is always the luckiest." Brendon huff's. After a few second's Cassie and Jenny seem to regain themselves and are blushing and pulling away from Patrick just as quickly as they jumped on him. Spencer sigh's like leaving them all alone together is suddenly a very bad idea.
"Pete, I'm starting to rethink this whole thing." Spencer start's, Pete turn's to the drummer shaking his head.
"You worry too much Smith, it isn't good for you." He states, his hand finding Spencer's shoulder and turning him, leading him to the bus door. "I'll take good care of your band while you're gone. I promise." Spencer never believes anything Pete promises when the older boy is wearing that paticular grin but the lure of seeing his parent's again is too much so, Spencer leaves his bandmate's in the capable hands of Pete Wentz.
Spencer leaves and now Cassie and Jenny are stuck with one member of Panic At The Disco and two member's of Fall Out Boy.
"Okay," Pete start's, "Come here Jon, I'm gonna teach you some bass." The older boy says, wrapping his hand around Jon's wrist. It take's everything Cassie has not to make noises when Pete touches her. Pete sits down on the couch next to Patrick, grabbing up his signature Clandestine bass from next to the couch and placing it in Jon's lap.
"I guess that mean's I'm teaching you Ryan." Patrick says with a shrug, "Though I suppose Brendon could help you out too."
"I'll just watch." Brendon says, sitting down across from Patrick. Jenny happily prances over to Patrick, dropping down on his other side, he too has a guitar and he places it in Ryan's lap.
"Remind me why we need to re-teach them how to play their insturment's and songs?" Patrick asks Pete. The older boy looks up from where he's admiring the bass..or maybe Jon and smiles.
"Oh, nothing much." Pete start's, "Just the fact that Jon and Ryan switched bodies with these two teenaged girl's from the midwest and now said teenaged girl's have to perform tomorrow, except they don't know any of the songs or how to play the insturment's." Pete tells his best friend.
Cassie and Jenny are completely silent, really they can't believe that Pete would just go tell the singer so casually, after promising Spencer that he wouldn't.
"Pete, that sounds like it came from a soap opera." Patrick is saying with disbelieving blue eyes.
Pete crack's a grin. "I know, I'm sorry but here's the real reason." The bassist says, his face going dramatically serious. "Remember? Jon and Ryan got in a tragic ski accident which left them with retrograde amnesia. They remember who they are and what they do but the only thing they can't remember is how to play their insturment's or their songs." Pete explain's, like that sort of thing is completely plauseable.
Patrick sits in silence before he shake's his head.
"Patrick, how dare you make light of their horrible accident!" Pete exclaims, he's acting extremely over the top but Patrick barely bat's an eye.
"Oh god, Jon...so cold...so much snow!" Jenny start's, clutching at Ryan's chest his eyes wide with feign terror.
"I knew we should've went down the bunny slope...I told you we weren't good enough for the advanced course!" Cassie says darkly, a look of terror smacked on to Jon's face. Brendon and Pete are trying to hold back their giggles but Patrick seem's to know that the whole lot of them are lying through their teeth, but he also figures that if they're making up such extravagent lie's than the truth must be so much worse.
Turn's out the whole teaching them to play insturment's thing is beginning to feel like a date. Pete is pressed close to Jon's back, his arms around Jon's, showing the younger boy how to hit the note's. Pete's face is also way to close to Jon's, his chin over the boy's shoulder, smiling as he move's Jon's finger's around the string's.
On Jenny's side she's the one whose doing all the flirting. Advancing on Patrick, leaning close to him and making him show her things over and over again so the older singer could be pressed close to him. Brendon is watching with a mix of humor and jealousy on both end's, whether that jealousy is from the older musician's touching his bandmate's or the fact that Pete and Patrick are lavishing attention on them instead of him, remain's to be seen.
It's been a little over an hour but they're not learning much of anything. That doesn't mean that Cassie isn't enjoying learning but Spencer's gonna be pissed.
*
Ryan's jittery all through his day at school. Jon only see's him during second hour and at lunch. He seemed to be doing alright during the first two hour's of the day but at lunch he seemed worse for the wear. They were all sitting together at the long lunch table, that Danny kid apparently harboring no ill will toward's Cassie for the punch in the face Jon had given him.
Ryan was sitting next to that dark haired girl that Jon thought was Jordan but he couldn't be sure, judging by the look on Ryan's face the two of them were holding hands under the table again. Krissy was there and she was attempting to keep things under control, Jon was trying to figure out a way to skip his upcoming math test.
Ryan is much more upset after school is over, he's grumbling and bitching and pouting the whole ride home.
"Ry, what happened?" Jon is asking, all things considered he was used to school now and today hadn't been such a bad day, at least it was the weekend. It's around this time that Jon realizes that he's been in Cassie's body for a week now.
Ryan is still pouting but he looks up at Jon from the backseat. "Right so, this girl comes up to me in the hallway and she's all like 'Jenny, I love you...take me back!' and I'm all like 'What the fuck?' and she was like 'You won't be with me because you're in love with Cassie!' and I'm still like 'Whut?' so, she got all mad at me and stormed away and I was just standing there all slackjawed. Teenaged girl's are fucking difficult." The boy finishes.
Krissy laughs. "That was Britney, she used to date Jenny but they broke up and Britney still blame's Cassie for it." The blonde girl explain's.
"Wait," Jon start's, "Cassie and Jenny aren't together right?"
"Sometime's I wonder." Krissy mumbles before she catches herself. "Shit, don't tell them I said that."
"I hate being a teenager." Ryan grumbles again. "We need to figure out a way to switch back into our bodies. Jon, what have you been trying?" The boy asks in Jenny's voice.
"Um...wishing."
"That's it? That's all you've been doing?"
"Well, geeze Ryan, it's not like there's some medicine I can take to get back in my body."
Krissy laughs but for the most part she's staying out of this argument.
"Yeah, but maybe you can search the net for some way's."
"Oh yeah, cause this kind of thing happen's all the time." Jon rolls Cassie's eyes.
"I'm beginning to think you like being her Jon." Ryan says, again Jon rolls the girl's eyes.
"Geeze Ryan, I missed you a lot." Again Cassie's voice is good for sarcasm.
Ryan make's a scoffing noise and folds Jenny's arms tighter, grumbling more.
chapter fifteen: Papa Spencer Or Lesbian Snuggles
Spencer comes back to the bus three and a half hour's later. He comes back to find two abandoned insturment's and loud laughing coming from the lounge. He move's to the back of the bus to find Pete and Patrick, along with Andy and Joe and his own band member's sprawled around the large bed, watching something on on Pete's laptop.
"Pete...what the fuck?" Spencer says, leaning in the doorway, his voice quaking with slight rage. Pete and the others look up, the smile's easing off their faces.
"Hi, Spence." The oldest of all the boy's says, acting like nothing in the entire world is wrong when there are certainly at least two things wrong here.
"You were supposed to be teaching them Pete! Not watching Youtube video's with them." Spencer snap's, Pete rolls his eyes.
"You're going to worry yourself into an early grave Smith."
"Pete..can I talk to you in the front?" Spencer says, his Spencer Smith patened bitchface in place. Pete looks around for support from the others but Cassie and Jenny are conviently snuggled into an Patrick Stump, Brendon Urie sandwhiched and are looking like they can't be bothered. The oldest boy sigh's and climb's off the bed, making his way to Spencer, who promptly drag's the older boy out of the back lounge and into the hall.
Cassie sort of feels bad for Pete, it hadn't exactly been his idea to abandon the teaching process and go watch video's on the net but she doesn't really feel like getting yelled at either, plus Patrick Stump is touching her arm so, yeah, she's not moving.
Five minutes and some hushed yelling later, Pete return's to the back lounge with Spencer in tow.
"Sadly, it is time for the Panic boy's to go home." He says, looking at the boy's on the bed with sheer adoration. Cassie, Jenny, and Brendon making pouty faces like little kid's who desperately want to stay up late.
"Do we have to Spence?" Brendon asks, his brown eyes all warm and shiny as he stares at Spencer. The drummer is standing beside Pete, tapping his foot, his one hand resting on his hip.
"Seriously, you three are acting like children and I never promised to become anyone's surroget mother." The youngest boy states, staring hard at the people on the bed.
"Aww, come on Spence, look at their little faces. Can't they stay the night?" Pete turn's his gaze on Spencer, the drummer staring in utter disbelief.
'This is not a slumber party Pete!"
Pete pouts but it isn't enough to warrant the boy's staying so, Panic promptly leaves, waving goodbye to the band that all of them idolize.
Once they're back in the car, Spencer in the front and Cassie, Brendon and Jenny huddled in the back, Brendon and Ryan a little upset at Spencer.
"So, did you guys' learn anything?" Spencer asks as he pulls out of the parking lot, heading back to his own house.
"I learned half of 'Nine In The Afternoon' and three quaters of 'Northern Downpour'." Cassie supplies, she brushes Jon's bang's out of his brown eyes. Spencer looks a little relieved at that but not enough that he looks confident about tomorrow's show.
"I learned that Ryan's nipples are uber sensitive." Jenny states, Cassie bursting into giggles and Brendon nodding knowingly.
"That's true." He adds, which only serves to make Cassie laugh harder.
"Dear god, how did you figure that one out?" Spencer is asking, he might sound disapproving but even he's got a smirk playing on his face.
"I let Pete play with them."
Cassie manages to stop laughing enough to ask Spencer about the question that's really plauging her mind. "Spence, what are we going to do about the show tomorrow?" Now that she's actually thinking about tomorrow's performance, she once again finds herself getting nervous. God, she hope's that Spencer at least has something up his sleeve.
"Well," The brown haired boy starts, "Pete and I decided that we would just play pre-recorded guitar and bass part's for the two of you. So, all you really have to do is pretend to play your insturment's and we should be fine." He says they'll be fine but he doesn't look like it so, Cassie's mind isn't really eased.
"Well, I guess I'll just have to be extra flashy so, no one will notice them fake playing." Brendon says with a big grin. Jenny pulls a face and start's arguing with Brendon about how she can totally pretend to play the guitar and how they should definitly do some stage gay while they're at it. Spencer looks distracted as he drives, no doubt worrying how tomorrow will turn out and Cassie, well, Cassie just feels like she's going to puke.
*
Jon and Ryan were currently not talking to one another, hadn't been since they had gotten dropped off by Krissy. The blonde girl couldn't stay at Cassie's house because she had work, that left Jon and Ryan alone and not talking. If Jon were a worse friend he would demand that Ryan take his ass back to Jenny's house but lucky for the boy trapped in Jenny's body, he's a nice guy.
Right now Jon was stretched out on Cassie's bed, the girl's short arms stretched out over her head. Ryan was sitting quietly on the floor of Cassie's room, Jenny's back to the bed. Jenny's mom had been kind enough to drop off the girl's laptop and he was now scouring the internet for information on what to do when you switch bodies with someone.
It had been five minutes and Ryan had yet to find anything useful, Jenny's face pulled into a permafrown.
"Find anything yet Ry?" Jon asks, he tells himself that he's asking because he actually wants to support the other 'boy' in his endevor but he knows that at least a small part of him is asking because he wants to rub the fact that there is no help to be found.
Ryan turn's Jenny's head so, that he's facing Jon. "No, for your information. All I can find is fanfiction that lead's to us all having group sex!" Ryan complain's, Jenny's voice raising extreamly high. Jon raises one of Cassie's eyebrow's.
"Really?...think I could uh-read that?" Jon asks, staring intently at Jenny's laptop. Ryan scoff's and pushes the computer away from both of them.
"Jon, seriously, we have to do something! What do you expect? We just live out the rest of our live's as these two girl's?" Ryan says, he moves up on the end of the bed near Cassie's feet. Jon give's a shrug. Really, he hadn't given much thought about what he could do beyond wishing to get back in his own body. What else was there to do?
"Start a girl band?" Jon suggests, Jenny's scowling face is pointed directly at Jon. "Okay, no, but I wasn't trying to think about it so much. I'm kind of going with the flow here." The boy in Cassie's body adds.
"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard." Ryan tells the older boy, "Sometime's your laid back attitude is very unhelpful." He adds, leaning back against the white wall, the poster's of their own band inches above Jenny's head.
Ryan is sitting slumped against the wall, Ryan apparently growing very dispondent with each day he has to spend not in his body. Jon sigh's and leans up, usually it's Spencer that comfort's the lyricst but since Spencer isn't here the responsibility has fallen to Jon.
"Wanna snuggle?" Jon suggests, already knowing full well that that make's the other boy happy. Jenny's eyes light up and Ryan nods the girl's head, thick black bang's slipping into the girl's blue eyes. Jon settles back on Cassie's bed, Ryan curling into the older girl's side.
Ryan has Jenny's eyes closed, Jon too closing his girl's eyes. Maybe a nap would do them good, clear their heads and give them some sort of new idea about how to get back into their own bodies.
*
Cassie is upset. The four of them had gotten back to Spencer's place, where Brendon, Jenny, and Spencer had taken to discussing what they could do at the show tomorrow. Cassie was not with them, she had retreated back to one of the guest bedroom's to call Jon, she wasn't sure why she wanted to call him, maybe to get some pointers about how she should act tomorrow...maybe just to hear her own voice but she called him and he didn't anwser.
She called four more time's and again no anwser. That's why she was upset, she couldn't even get in contact with herself. Jon and Ryan should've been home from school by now, they should've been around, Jon should be anwsering the phone.
Cassie shut's the phone for the fifth time and sigh's deeply. The show tomorrow is driving her insane, hell, she could barely stand in front of her classmate's and talk in her english class let alone get in front of thousand's and pretend to play the bass, pretend like she was good at it and that she was a boy and that she wasn't freaking the fuck out.
It's really the first time since the switch that she's wished she wasn't in his body. The girl hear's footstep's and she's expecting Jenny, she's expecting to see Ryan's brown eyes peering at her but as she looks up it's not brown eyes that she see's but sparkly bright baby blue's. Spencer is standing in the doorway.
"Not feeling well?" He asks with a knowing smile. Cassie shrugs, she's pretty much laying all spread eagle on the bed, cell phone in hand.
"I was trying to call Jon." She says, as some kind of explanation as to why she's not with the others.
"No anwser?" He asks, Cassie shakes Jon's head. Spencer sigh's and sits on the end of the bed, glancing sidelong at the bassist's body.
"You're freaked about tomorrow right?" Spencer asks, again he's looking at her like he already knows that's the anwser. Cassie sigh's, a warm rush of air out of Jon's chest.
"If I'm that obvious then I'm screwed." She had been hoping to maintain a quiet sort of dignity opposed to the little bundle of nerves that she really was. Spencer laughs and Cassie feels his hand slip to Jon's ankle, resting there lightly. She looks at him with raised eyebrows and he seem's to notice what he's doing.
"Sorry, it's a habit." He says, still smiling and removing said hand from Jon's ankle. "But back to your nerves. Don't worry about it...just have fun and don't worry about anything."
"But...so many people are going to be watching me...what if someone notices that I'm faking...what if I ruin the band?" She has many more things that she's worried about but she doesn't want to voice them all to the drummer. Spencer shakes his head.
"If you worry too much, bad things will happen." Cassie is just about to tell Spencer that he suck's at giving advice but he get's up and is moving out of the rooming, seemingly ending their conversation. Ok, now she's really going to tell him that he suck's, before she can though the boy is back, sitting on the bed with Brendon's ruby red laptop in hand.
"Here, just watch some live video's of Jon and hopefully you'll pick up some of his moves."
Cassie take's the laptop, seeing that Spencer had already cued up some video's.
"Jenny's not worried?" Cassie question's, she's ignoring the fact that the boy has video's of Jon at the ready, Spencer shakes his head.
"No, she and Brendon are discussing what kind of stage gay moves they can do during the show." The brown haired boy states with that typical long suffering tone.
"Yeah, I would totally cut off Ryan's mic during the show or you run the risk of her professing her love for Brendon on stage."
"Noted." Spencer says with a smile. The drummer leaves Cassie alone and for a moment she expect's Jenny to come back to the room to check on her but she's still really excited to be around the boy's and even if she did come back to the room, Cassie wouldn't want the other girl worrying about her.
Cassie sigh's and watches the first video that Spencer has set up for her, trying desperately to keep the anxiety down.
*
Jon wake's up to Krissy standing infront of Cassie's bed, her hands on her hips and a small smirk on her face. He doesn't know what the girl is smirking at until he moves and feels warm hands cupping Cassie's breast's and a face pressed firmly against the girl's back.
"Ryan, you need to stop with the grabby hands." Jon says groggily, promptly removing Jenny's hands and sitting up. He hadn't even realized that he had fallen asleep. "I thought you were working Krissy?" He asks. The blonde girl nods.
"I was, I just got out and instead of getting to go home I have to come here and make sure you're still alive because apparently Cassie's been trying to call you for the last hour and you aren't anwsering your phone." okay, so, Krissy sounds kinda pissed which is really scary most of the time.
"My phone..." Jon says, trying to think of the last place he actually saw the device. "Oh," He stands, moving away from the bed before dropping to his knee's infront of Cassie's schoolbag and fishing through it. "I turned it off during school...I guess I forgot to turn it back on." He says as he pulls out the cell. "Do you know why she was calling me?" Jon asks, worried that something terrible has happened to his body.
"She's worried about tomorrow's show in Vegas."
Ryan gasps from the bed.
"Oh. My. God. We're going to miss that show Jon! The Vegas show!" Ryan is up on Jenny's knee's, with big trembling blue eyes and the girl's hands up under his chin. Krissy giggles at the position.
"I'm sure they'll do fine Ry." Jon tries to comfort the other boy but he knows that when it comes to performing, Ryan is ungodly uptight. Jenny's head shakes back and forth harshly.
"No, no, not okay because those two don't know our songs! It's-It's going to be a catastrophe!" Ryan is at near shrieking level's here which is never a good thing.
"Ryan just chill, I'm sure Spencer thought of-"
"Spencer! That's it! I'll call Spencer because he's smart, he'll think of something!" Ryan is shouting, scrambling to find Jenny's cell phone to call his best friend. Krissy is just standing, watching the two people in her best friend's bodies and wondering when the hell this will all get back to normal.
Jon has Cassie's cell on and he dial's his own phone number just as Ryan finds Jenny's cell. The phone ring's three time's before Cassie anwser's it.
"I thought I had fallen off the face of the earth." She says, Jon's voice hitting him and he knows that he's smiling.
"I fell asleep I guess. Sorry." Jon respond's in the girl's voice, he wonders if hearing her own voice freak's her out too. He hear's his own laugh.
"It's alright..I'm alright now." She tells him.
"What was wrong before?" He's worried, wants everything to be alright for her while she's in his body. Cassie hesitate's, Jon strain's the girl's ear's to hear what's happening on her side.
'The show tomorrow."
That's all she really need's to say because Jon knows about the show, can hear Ryan freaking out on Spencer who must've just anwsered his phone.
"I can hear Jenny yelling..." The girl adds, mystified by the sound of her best friend screaming.
"Yeah," Jon start's, getting up from the floor and glancing back at the other two people in the room. "Ryan remembered the show tomorrow and...he's kind of freaking out." The boy adds as he stands and leaves the room, attempting to find a quieter place.
"Yeah, I can hear Spencer talking to him." Again Jon is sure that his body is smiling, he notices the sound of it in his own voice.
"So, the show tomorrow?" Jon tries again, trying to make sure that the girl isn't freaking out.
"Has me having a panic attack and yes, I see the irony of that statement."
Jon laughs his cute temporary girl laugh.
"So, I take it you don't play bass and can't learn in a day?"
"Right, Pete tried to teach me but...we kind of ended up flirting instead."
"Oh," Jon start's, sounding worried that Cassie is out screwing every member of Fueled By Ramen that she can get Jon's hands on.
"But that's all we did! I swear." Maybe she knew what he was thinking?
"So, if you don't know the songs...what's the plan for tomorrow?" Jon asks, he's not nearly as worried as Ryan is but still, you know it's still their band and performances are important.
"Pre-recorded bass and guitar part's so, all I have to do is pull off a perfect Jon Walker imitation." She replies with a laugh.
"And how does one go about doing that?"
"Well, Spencer did find me some video's of you from live performances...so, I'll just copy those moves."
"Okay, but what do you intend to do about the fan's who will undoubtedly be screaming for your autograph and maybe attempting to rip off your clothes."
"Hey, I happen to be a fan you know." She says it almost like she's offended.
"And you wished us into different bodies." Is Jon's reply, Cassie is silent on the other line.
"Fine, what should I do oh great Jon Walker?" Jon's own voice is mocking him, that's a first.
"As a rule I usually don't sign skin. I take picture's when I can...I usually follow Ryan's lead but I guess just do what Spencer says."
"Wow, that was extreamly helpful." Jon's voice is holding hint's of sarcasm.
"Just try not to make me look like an idiot." Jon tells her, she's quiet again.
"I don't think you ever could."
There's a slight awkward silence wherein Jon's sure that he was just hit on by himself but he lets it slide. Cassie has to go for something that sounds like Spencer yelling about rehearsal or planning and he thinks he hear's the word 'Stage gay' but he's not going to question it, or tell Ryan about it.
chapter sixteen: Come And Coffee Or The Asshats
After Cassie had gotten off the phone with Jon she had went and planned out tomorrow's show with Spencer and the others. Then they had taken a break and went into the living room to watch a movie, a scary movie which Cassie repeatedly informed them she didn't want to watch but was sweetalked into watching by Brendon and those damn puppy dog eyes. At least she could hold Jenny's hand and tuck her face into the crook of Brendon's neck during the scary parts.
But now, now it was three in the morning and Cassie couldn't sleep. She wanted to say it was because of the show tomorrow but really she knew it was because she was worried that some psycho with a chainsaw was going to jump out from the darkness and hack her and Jon's body to death.
Cassie had been trying to be reasonable, was trying to fall asleep and it had kind of been working until a loud thumping was heard from somewhere in the house. The girl makes Jon squeak and that's all she can handle, she's out of the guest bedroom and standing in the hall in second's flat.
Spencer had demanded that all four of them sleep alone tonight because sex would make everyone way too tired in the morning. But now, now Cassie is thinking that maybe she can just snuggle up with Brendon for the night, mostly since she blames him for making her watch the stupid movie.
She pads quietly down the hall, attempting to find the room that Brendon was sleeping in. She could also go cuddling up with Jenny, that would be easy but she is kind of having problems seeing Jenny in Ryan, she still sees him as the boy, the lyricist of Panic At The Disco and someone she is not allowed to snuggle with at three in the morning.
After getting lost three times she does eventually find the room that Brendon is sleeping in for the night. His door is cracked open but the lights are off, maybe he was expecting her? Cassie creeps closer to the door, expecting to slip inside and get under the covers with the adorable lead singer. But the closer Cassie creeps, the more she can hear noises coming from inside.
grunts and moans that sound suspiciously like the ones Brendon made when she jerked him off that night.There's other sounds too, ones she's never heard before but she can still recognise Ryan's voice. The door is still cracked open so, Cassie slides up to it quietly, the sounds growing louder.
Through the crack in the door Cassie can see them, Brendon and Ryan...or Jenny together, fucking. It really shouldn't be surprising because Brendon's been trying to get in Jenny's pants since she turned but it is, it is only because she kind of thought that Brendon was loyal to her...or Jon. She never asked him specifically and he never said that he was but she just thought that the two boys were together.
"God..I forgot how tight he was...are-are you alright?" That was Brendon, Brendon who Cassie could see was on top of Ryan's body, holding the thin boy's hips, his own naked ass moving with each thrust.
"Ah..ye-yeah, just keep going." That was Jenny and she should've fucking known that the girl would be more than willing to try anal sex, it was something Jenny had talked about even when she was a girl. All she can think about is how she broke her promise to Spencer because now Brendon was fucking Ryan and as far as Cassie could guess that was a privellege reserved for Pete Wentz. Ryan/Jenny cries out again and okay, so there's only two things she can think about; the broken promise and what Ryan sounds like when he gets fucked.
Cassie slides away from the door and now she doesn't know where to go. She isn't going back to bed alone and since Jenny and Brendon are preoccupied that only leaves one place to go, Spencer. Cassie already knows where the boy's room is so she heads there quietly, not wanting to alert Brendon and Jenny to the fact that she's actually awake.
Spencer's door is closed so Cassie has to open it, cringing at how loud she thinks the door knob turning must be. A little square of light falls on Spencer's sleeping form, all the girl can make out is a body curled under the blanket. She pads into the room whisper quiet as not to wake the drummer up, not yet at least because she kind of has to wake him up to ask if she can sleep in here.
"Spence, Spencer." She whispers in Jon's smooth voice, moving to the side of the bed where Spencer is sleeping.
"Hmm?" The Spencer shaped lump growls out, Cassie's not even sure if he knows whose talking to him or why.
"Are you awake?"
"Am I talking to you?" Spencer's groggy voice replies from under the blanket. The brown haired boy slides his head out from under the blankets peering up at Jon's body with annoyance. "What do you want?"
Cassie bites Jon's lip and stands there kind of awkward. She doesn't want to just come out and ask if she can sleep in his bed with him but she really doesn't have any other plan.
"Come on, what is it?" He asks, flopping back down on his pillows, his eyes slipping closed once again.
"I...I wanted to tell you that I was sorry." Jon's voice stammers out.
"What?" Yeah, Spencer definitly sounds annoyed. "Sorry for what? Waking me?"
"No, I'm sorry because I couldn't keep my promise to you." She says, Jon's voice sounding small and sort of scared. There's a silence on Spencer's part, maybe he fell back asleep?
"What promise again?"
"The one about Ryan's body and how I promised to protect it. I failed and now...Brendon and Jenny are having sex." She's afraid of getting yelled at by Spencer, he's scary. Spencer sighs.
"You didn't fail, I figured that shit was going to happen anyway." He tells her, he still sounds sleepy and he probably just wants her to go away. There's a silence between them wherein Spencer has his eyes closed and is probably waiting for Cassie to tell him goodnight and leave the room. She doesn't and he knows she doesn't because Jon's soft breathing is filling the room.
Spencer cracks a blue eye open, finding Jon's figure in the semi-darkness.
"Is there something else?" He asks, Cassie wrings Jon's hands together and scuffs his toe against the carpet.
"Well...yeah..can I...sleep in here with you?" Jon's voice comes out smaller than usual and for a split second Cassie can hear her own voice mixed in there. Spencer's bright eyes are open now and he's staring down Jon's body.
"You're serious?" Cassie nods Jon's head, Spencer sighs. "Can I ask why?"
"I don't want to be the next victim of some chainsaw wielding murderer." Somehow she manages to make this event seem plausable. Silence, she's sure Spencer is going to laugh at her, yell at her, kick her out and make her walk past the room where her best friend is getting screwed by Brendon Urie.
Instead Spencer sighs deeply and scoots over in the already large bed. "I cannot believe this." He states, she figures he's only giving in because they have to be up early, they have a show and he doesn't want to waste time arguing. Cassie claps Jon's hands together in what is way too girly way, Spencer shakes his head as Cassie climbs into his bed.
Normally she would be worried about sleeping in the same bed as Spencer Smith but the fear she has for the chainsaw weilding maniac is worse. "I told you not to let me watch that movie." She says, Jon's voice still tiny.
"Never again." He states, rolling over on his side, his back to Cassie. He says never again, like the two of them will have time to try again. "And stop making Jon's voice all little..it's freaking me out."
"Sorry, Spencer." Cassie makes Jon say in the light voice, Spencer scoffs and Cassie giggles, again something insanely girly. Once again Cassie settles down to go to sleep and it sort of works, Jon's eyes feel heavy and it's nice to hear Spencer's soft breathing right next to her and she's sure she'll be asleep in no time. Well, she would've been if not for another creepy thump that echoes throughout the house.
The girl makes Jon squeak and she instantly snuggles closer to Spencer, pressing Jon's face into the younger boy's soft back. If Spencer had been sleeping, he wasn't anymore. She hears him sigh.
"You know that was probably just Brendon and Jenny right?" His sleepy voice echoes out, she can feel it rumble against Jon's cheek through Spencer's back.
"Yeah." She replies, really her fear of scary movies is way too intense.
"Are you going to do this all night?" Spencer is asking, Cassie shakes Jon's head, hopes that he can feel it through his back. Spencer seems to settle down after that but something is bothering Cassie and for once it's not the chainsaw weilding murderer.
"Spencer?"
"Yeah?" It kind of seems like the blue eyed boy was expecting her to talk to him again.
"Wanna...make out a little?"
She can feel Spencer freeze against Jon's body. He's turning around so that they're facing each other, Spencer's bright blue eyes burning into Jon's. Because Cassie had been snuggled up to his back and he had turned, they were now face to face.
"What? Why?" He asks, slight alarm or maybe surprise in his voice. Cassie shrugs, maybe because she can't sleep or maybe because Jenny is with Brendon right now, she's leaning more towards the latter.
"Want to?" She presses, Jon's warm hands sliding to Spencer's chest. The drummer looks conflicted, his eye flickering and she can guess what he's thinking. He's thinking about whether or not they should do this again, whether or not Jon would get upset with it, that they should all really be sleeping and not attempting to screw one another.
Spencer leans towards Jon's body and Cassie can't help the spontainious fangirlish giggle that escapes Jon's body. "Oh my god. I'm about to make out with Spencer Smith!" She makes Jon half squeal. Spencer pulls back and narrows his eyes.
"For one, we've kissed before and two, we won't be making out if you keep talking like that."
"The first time doesn't count since I was drunk." Cassie points out.
Spencer rolls his eyes but doesn't give an anwser, his tongue slides out over his bottom lip before he's pressing forward and locking lips with Jon's body. Soft slide of tongues, Spencer taking control once again. Spencer's beard is brusing against Jon's chin and Cassie almost wants to laugh because it's tickling her and hello! she's kissing Spencer Smith but she doesn't because that would require Spencer's tongue to leave Jon's mouth and no, that can't happen. After a few moments his hand is on Jon's hip, pulling the older boy's body closer and suddenly Cassie can feel Spencer hard against Jon's thigh.
She breaks the kiss, searching Spencer's heated eyes. She's looking at Spencer but her minds on Brendon, how he's with Jenny right now, doing god knows what because Jenny is open like that.
"Do you wanna fuck?" Cassie whispers against Spencer's mouth. It's very forward, she knows it is and it's nerve-wracking because she's never had sex, not counting the blowjob from Brendon. Spencer gasps, looks at Jon/Cassie with wide eyes. They're silent and if she tries hard enough she thinks she can hear Ryan's groans echoing around the house. "Do you?" She asks again, trying to push the sounds away.
She swears that she can feel Spencer's dick twitch, a near tell tale sign that yes, he does want to have sex. "I-Are you going to let me fuck you?" He asks, voice so much lower than Cassie's ever heard, it makes her shiver. She considers the idea for a split second but no, no nothing is going in Jon's ass while she's in his body.
"No, I..don't think I can."
"Then no, we're not going to fuck." Spencer informs her, looking just a little disappointed as he rolls on to his back and closes his eyes. They're not going to fuck because neither of them is willing to be on the receving end.
Cassie huffs, she's turned on, Jon's dick hard in the pajama pants she's wearing.
"What about blowjobs?" She asks, Spencer props himself up and eyes her seriously.
"What is up with you tonight?" He asks and she doesn't know...okay, so she does know but she doesn't want to admit it. Jenny's with Brendon and now it sort of feels like a competition, Jenny's let Brendon fuck her while all Cassie's done is jerk him off. Jenny is obviously winning but if she can get Spencer, she wins. She doesn't tell Spencer this, instead all she says is; "Just horny."
So, Spencer is watching her and it's quiet and Cassie knows that she definitly hears Brendon moaning and she can hardly wait for Spencer to give her an anwser.
"You want me to do you too?" He asks and she nods because yeah, blowjobs are amazing. Spencer looks away from Jon's eyes before he scrubs a hand through his hair and nods. "Fine, fine, but me first okay?" He says and Cassie nods Jon's head. She's just agreed to give her first ever blowjob and now she's worried.
Spencer pushes the blanket down to their feet and he's getting up on his knees, tugging his pants down off impossibly pale hips. Cassie gets up, sits on Jon's heels and tries to figure out a way to do this without hurting Spencer. The other boy seems to notice this and he stops pulling down his boxers.
"What's wrong?..." He asks, staring intensly at Jon's body.
"I-" She tips Jon's head up to meet the other boys eyes. "I never done this before."
Spencer looks stricken and slumps back. "Maybe this isn't a good idea." He starts.
"No, no. I can do this." Cassie is saying and she slides on Jon's stomach on to the bed, head level with Spencer's crotch. Spencer's breathing heavy and he seems to make a mental decision because he slides his boxers down to his knees and is staring down at Jon. Cassie isn't looking at him though because her eyes are trained on the drummers half hard cock.
"Still wanna do this?" He asks, voice just a little lower than usual. Cassie flicks Jon's eyes up to meet Spencer's and she nods his head.
"Yeah, I do...just..fuck, you're bigger than Brendon."
"Ha, I knew it." Spencer says triumphantly.
"Maybe you should get on your back?" She asks and Spencer listens, laying back on the bed. Cassie moves Jon to kneel beside Spencer, the drummers hand is wrapped around is cock and he's fisting, making it grow fully erect. "Don't stare at me when you're doing that...it's fucking creepy." She says, glancing at Spencer whose staring lustfully at Jon.
Spencer's eyes slip closed and he lets a moan escape him, Jon's cock instantly twitching. She's staring at Spencer's cock, probably been staring at it for too long because Spencer has started talking to her again.
"Want me to teach you how to do it? Because honestly, that would be fucking hot."
She's halfway between thinking that yes, that is hot, that Spencer is a pervert and that it actually isn't a bad idea.
"You're a perv." She says, drops down near the drummers cock. Spencer releases his dick and waits with big wide eyes to watch Cassie/Jon. She bends over Spencer's cock and for a split second she feels like she's dying from the nerves but then Jon's tongue is out and sweeping along the head of Spencer's cock, the drummer crying out instant and loud. She pulls back for a moment because she's afraid that maybe she had hurt him.
"That..wasn't a bad thing. That was good." Spencer says, hand finding Jon's shoulder and giving it a squeeze. Dear, god, Cassie needs to just take a reality check for a moment because not only is Jenny having sex with Brendon Urie, gorgeous lead singer, Brendon Urie, the boy who gave her a blowjob, that Brendon Urie. And now she..she was about to blow Spencer Smith, someone she found terribly intimidating in the beginning.
"You're gonna..you're gonna keep going right?" Spencer asks, Cassie nods Jon's head and dips back down, running the bassist's tongue over Spencer's cock. He lifts his hand and rests it on the back of Jon's head, not pressing, just skritching his fingers through Jon's hair.
That's what she has to remember, that Spencer doesn't see her, not Cassie but Jon. Just like they all do, like how Brendon sees Ryan when he looks at Jenny, sees Jon when he looks at her. She's just filling in for Jon until he's back.
In the morning Cassie wakes up to the heavy body of Spencer Smith practically on top of her and really, she doesn't mind all that much. She's laying on Jon's stomach, Spencer stretched out along and on top of Jon's back. The alarm is blaring and she can't do anything about it.
Her mouth has a bitter taste in it, Spencer's fault. But whatever, she got a Spencer Smith blowjob last night, almost as good as a Brendon Urie one but god, Brendon's mouth was made for oral sex.
"Spencer...alarm." Jon's groggy voice issues out and she's trying to push him off of her. Cassie notices that her jaw is sore when she talks, again Spencer's fault. Spencer groans, a noise very similar to the ones he had made last night, and crawls away from Jon's body, turning off the alarm.
The blue eyed boy turns and looks at Cassie with bleary eyes. "How you feeling?" He asks, his own voice slightly rough. Cassie sits up and rubs a hand absently at Jon's jaw.
"Sore."
Spencer laughs, almost like he's proud, he probably is.
Five minutes later Cassie and Spencer are out in the kitchen, the boy making coffee while Cassie sits at the table, holding an empty coffee cup.
"Brendon! I swear if you're not up in five seconds, I will kick your ass!" Spencer yells from the kitchen, his sharp voice echoing around the room.
"Like you could kick my sweet ass." Brendon yells back and they hear footsteps coming before Brendon and Jenny are practically skipping into the kitchen. Jenny is making Ryan grin so wide that it's almost scary, her grin is aimed at Cassie as she takes a seat next to her best friend. Brendon too is grinning and Cassie feels like pulling a bitchface but she doesn't actually think that Jon is capable of producing a bitchface so instead she just looks to Spencer for some coffee.
Brendon too is smiling at Cassie, neither of them noticing that she hasn't smiled back. The black haired boy slides up to Cassie's side, his one hand finding Jon's shoulder while the other tips Jon's head back so their eyes meet.
"Good morning." He says lightly as he leans in and kisses Jon's mouth, a quick flash of tongue.
Cassie is so, so thankful that Brendon's mouth tastes like toothpaste and not something that could be way more hot or disgusting, depending on how you look at it. Brendon pulls away and the smile he had been wearing fades, a new look of recognition lighting in his brown eyes.
"You taste like..." He trails off, letting his eyes sweep over Jon's face before they move to Spencer's. Now Brendon's frowning and he's kind of half glaring at Spencer, who is still innocently making coffee. "Spencer," Brendon starts, hands snaking up to his sharp hips. Cassie turns and meets Ryan's eyes, soft and curious.
"We're going to go get ready." Cassie says suddenly, standing and motioning for Jenny to follow.
"Wait," Spencer replies, fully ignoring a glowering Brendon. He turns and pours some of his freshly made coffee into Cassie's empty cup. "Don't forget your coffee." He's smiling, like this entire situation is amusing. Cassie nods Jon's head and slips the cup into the boy's hand. Cassie heads back to the bedroom she was supposed to be sleeping in last night, Ryan's hand wrapping around Jon's wrist.
Cassie plops down on the bed, Jenny beside her.
"What was Brendon talking about out there? What do you taste like?" She has Ryan asking and Cassie meets her best friends eyes. Jenny looks innocent enough, Ryan looks innocent is what she should say. Something is burning inside her though, a feeling she isn't used to, jealousy.
"Never mind that. Did you have fun last night?"
Jenny looks taken aback by that question, Ryan's eyes widening.
"What?"
"Last night, did you have fun when you slept with Brendon?" Jon's voice comes out as slightly bitter and she doesn't mean it. She doesn't even know why she's jealous but she is. Again, Ryan's face is a picture of confusion.
"I-Are you pissed at me? Cause you sound like your pissed at me." Ryan's voice comes out soft. No, she doesn't think she's mad at Jenny. In all their time of being friends they had never so much as seriously argued with one another and she doesn't want to start now so, no, she's not mad at Jenny, just jealous.
"No..I don't know. I'm fucking confused."
"Okay..why?" Jenny's sounding more like the confused one here, while Cassie is sounding irrational.
"You slept with Brendon?" Jon's head tips to the side, eyes meeting with Ryan's. It's a question, one she knows the anwser to but she's asking all the same. A slight blush spreads along Ryan's pale cheeks but she nods his head. Cassie tries really hard not to scowl she doesn't think she pulls it off but it happens.
"Is that..is that what's bothering you?" Jenny has Ryan sounding near hysterical, she turns his lithe body to face Jon. Cassie doesn't say anything, Jon's eyes downcast and she can feel his face sag into a little frown. "Oh my god. It is! You're jealous aren't you?" Jenny exclaims.
Cassie lifts the bassists head, eyeing Ryan's body, searching for Jenny inside of him. "I..I don't know!" Now Jon is sounding as equally frustrated as Ryan. Cassie doesn't know why she's brought this shit up. The show is today so it's not like they actually need anymore added pressure. She scrubs a hand across Jon's face and cradles his stubbly chin in his hands.
"I don't even know why I am! I mean, it's not like I haven't noticed Brendon trying to get into your pants but I just thought...I dunno, that they were empty words you know?"
Jenny nods but Ryan is frowning.
"Why do you care anyway? It's not like you're with him or anything."
"But Jon is."
Jenny makes a face but she keeps talking. "Yeah, but did he ever say that he and Jon were exclusive? Did he promise that he wouldn't sleep with another band member?"
Fuck, Jenny and her logic.
"No, I guess not but you know..." She shrugs weakly, not sure of how to finish that sentence. She knows that Jenny's right, she shouldn't be getting so worked up about this. Brendon doesn't belong to her because she's not even Jon. This is getting ridiculous.
"Oh god, you're getting attached to him aren't you?" Ryan's voice flits around the room. Cassie isn't willing to make eye contact just like she isn't willing to admit that maybe, yes, just a little bit. She doesn't have to admit anything because Jenny takes her silence as a resounding 'Hell Yes' and Ryan's soft brown eyes widen drastically. "Cassie, Cassie no, you can't like him like that...for so, so many reasons."
Jon's eyes roll in Ryan's direction. "Thank you doctor Phil. I don't think you should be giving me advice on who to get attached to."
"I'm serious." That's how Jenny is, always attempting to protect Cassie from a broken heart. Not to say that she's head over heels in love with the black haired singer, just attached if anything.
"I know. It doesn't matter anyway because Jon's gonna kill me for what I did last night." Cassie mutters out, Jon's voice soft and overly depressing, she does not like that. Jenny lifts the lyricists head.
"What did you do last night?" She presses, brown eyes filled with curiousity. She's still not going to look at Ryan, doesn't want to make eye contact when she says it.
"Gave my first blowjob and got one in return."
"What! From Spencer?"
"Well, yeah! Did you see me in bed with you guys? And I can't exactly blow myself."
Jenny's silent, Ryan's eyes flickering with interest, damn his face and how it can withold emotions.
"You never know, Jon might have that talent. Besides that's not fair! You're not being fair."
"What? Jenny, what the fuck?" Jenny nods enthusiastically.
"You're being greedy with the boys." She says with a disapproving tone. Cassie pulls a face.
"I am not."
"You so are. First Brendon and now Spencer, if I weren't in Ryan's body I bet you'd be trying to fool around with him too."
Jon's mouth drops open, this really is the closest they have ever come to fighting with one another. Before Cassie can manage to say anything Jenny moves forward and is locking lips with Jon, a quick flash of tongue like Brendon had done and she pulls back, mouth quirking up.
"You taste like come and coffee." Jenny says, Ryan's face inches from Jon's. Cassie makes Jon scowl and she reaches out and playfully, she swears to god it was supposed to be playfully, pushes Jenny. The thing about being in Jon's body is that he's a boy, a strong boy and when a strong boy like Jon pushes a little boy like Ryan...well, it causes things like, Ryan falling off the bed and on to the floor.
"Ow! Cassie!" Jenny makes Ryan screech, poking Ryan's head up over the bed. Cassie stands, Jon's hands coming up in a 'I'm innocent' fashion.
"It was an accident!"
Ryan's body is up off the floor and Jenny is huffing, wrapping thin arms around the guitarists body before she strides out of the room.
*
Ryan's been scouring the internet all day, Jon laying around lazily and watching the other boy work. Ryan's got Jenny's head tipped down in concentration, her forehead crinkled in frustration. He's been looking for information on body swapping and obsessively checking all the Panic At The Disco site's that he could, looking for any information on their beloved Las Vegas show tonight.
"I guess they're not going to cancel the show tonight." Jenny's voice issues out, heavy hints of sadness held in the girl's voice.
"Why would they?" Jon asks, watching Ryan with intent blue eyes. Ryan shrugs, maybe it seems impossible to Ryan that his band would dare perform without him, the band was basically his child. "It's okay Ryro." Jon says, ruffling Jenny's short hair. Ryan sighs and leans back for a moment before he sets the laptop aside and gets up.
"Bathroom." He states, anwsering a question that Jon didn't get the chance to ask. Jon slides down to the bed, if he thinks about it he's worried about the show too. He wonders if Cassie and Jenny can handle it, he remembers his first time performing with Panic and how terrified he had been, even if he was with three of his favorite people at the time.
Cassie's room was next to her mother's bedroom in the house and that was next to the bathroom, Jon being more than able to hear everything in all the other rooms in the house. He's still laying on the bed when he hears a loud splashing noise before an equally loud swear.
"Fucking toliet!" Jon can hear Jenny's voice yelling and he's up off the bed, moving with light girly footsteps, laughing before he even reaches the bathroom. Jon stops outside of the bathroom door, knocks lightly.
"Ry, did you fall in?" Jon's joking when he says this, he's not expecting the reply.
"Yes, actually!" Jenny sounds pretty pissed off. "Her brother must've left the seat up...my ass is soaked!" He complains. Jon is trying so, so hard not to laugh.
"No one said being a girl was easy." Jon points out, brushing a wave of Cassie's curly hair behind the girl's ear. He can hear Ryan sighing and a slight sloshing noise before the door is pulled open. Jenny's standing there with her jeans around her knees and her soaking wet underwear pulled up. Again Jon has little flashes of, 'I shouldn't be seeing this, she's not eighteen!'
Ryan goes back to Cassie's room to change Jenny's clothes, Jon following because hey, it's not like he has to look at her changing or anything.
"Okay," Ryan starts as he shimmies out of Jenny's soaked jeans. "So, you're completely right. Being a girl is hard."
Jon has Cassie leaning against the doorframe, he watches the reflection of the girl whose body he's possesing in the mirror. "You can't even talk until you have your period." Jon maybe googled how long girl's have their periods for because his mom and sister never talked about it so, he wasn't sure. Turns out it lasts between five and seven days if you're lucky. Jon's on the third day of his period and he can only pray that it's over two days from now.
"Don't you dare jinx me." Ryan hisses out. He's got Jenny on her knees, digging through a bag of her clothes. Jon avoids looking, avoids looking at the underaged girl in her underwear. Ryan finds clothes and straightens back up, glancing at Jon. "And" He starts, "It's like you know that cliched thing that girl's always say?"
Jon raises an eyebrow. "You know." Ryan says, looking at Jon like he's an idiot. "That 'Do these pants make my butt look big?' question." Jon catches small flashes of pale skin but he's pretty sure that Ryan's putting fresh underwear on the girl so, he's definitly not going to look.
"Yeah." Jon says, Ryan's grabbing at the fresh pair of jeans, sliding them up the girl's hips.
"But the thing is, now I actually really want to know if these pants make my butt look big?" It comes out sounding like a question and Jon is not going to remind the other boy of the numerous times he has heard Ryan ask that question in his boy body...Brendon too for that matter but Brendon's butt looks big in anything.
"Your butt looks fine." He's starting to feel like a creepy pedo. Ryan has Jenny smile but it only serves to make Jon feel like even more of a creep.
"And shaving...that pretty much sucks." It seems that Ryan just wants to list all the things about being a girl that annoys him.
"Yeah, I kind of stopped after that first attempt." Cassie's light voice rings out, Jon brushes the girl's soft hand against her now slightly stubbly leg...he should probably try shaving again soon.
"And guys being total asshats to us." Ryan adds, Jon makes Cassie laugh, soft and uber girly.
"We are guys."
"We're asshats." Ryan confirms.
"Speak for yourself Ross." Jon's always considered himself a gentleman.
"Anyway," Ryan is saying again, checking out Jenny's ass in the mirror, like, he didn't believe what Jon said. "We have a show here in Michigan."
It takes Jon a moment to figure out what the hell Ryan is talking about. "Oh, the band."
"Yes, the band." Ryan retorts like it's completely obvious and hell, it is. "But the show isn't for like," Ryan stops and taps Jenny's fingers against the girl's chin. "Two months."
Jon thinks about that. In two months it will be December, it will be christmas, a time when he's supposed to be in Chicago with his family and have Brendon obsessivly calling him and telling him that he missed him. It would be two months before Jon even saw Brendon again?
"We've got to figure something out." Jon says, Ryan smiling because Jon finally see's the urgency.
"Well, not a lot we can do. We have to play the shows..it wouldn't be fair to skip around on the fans. We'll just have to wait...or hope that this whole situation reverses itself." Ryan is shrugging the girl's shoulders, he moves back to the laptop and proceeds to resume his obsessive searching of the Panic site's.
chapter seventeen: Pre-show Jitters Or Pre-party
So, Cassie's not exactly talking to Brendon and Jenny anymore. Okay, so all she did was avoid the two of them and opt to hang around Spencer in the kitchen until it was time to get back on the tour bus. Cassie hates the tour bus. It's too small, not at all good for hiding from people. Jenny still thinks Cassie's being greedy with the Panic love and Spencer told her that Brendon is mad that the younger boy blew Jon.
She's hiding out in Jon's bunk, velvety curtain pulled around it. She's really sort of terrified because of the show. They're on their way to the venue, to rehearse and fuck...the show is only a certain handful of hours from now. Cassie's trying to think of a way to escape from the bus when Jon's sidekick starts ringing.
It read's off her own number so she anwsers, hoping for Jon.
Thankfully her hopes are anwsered and it is Jon on the line, Cassie's voice greeting him.
"How are you feeling today?" He asks, it's still strange, disjointed to be talking to herself.
"M'Okay."
"No, you're not. What's wrong?"
"How did you know something was wrong?"
"Duh, I can hear the sadness in my voice you know?" Jon's right because she can hear the concern in her own voice. "So, is it the show?" Jon tries, Cassie grimaces, wishes it was just the show.
"No, I..I'm sorta not talking to Brendon and Jenny."
"What? Why?" Jon sounds surprised but Cassie doesn't want to tell him.
"Um...I don't think I should tell you."
Her own voice tinkles like music across the line.
"Why?"
"Um..okay, so, last night I caught Brendon having sex with Jenny." She grimaces as she says this because Brendon is Jon's boyfriend..or at least something like it right? So, wouldn't he be just a little upset at the fact that Brendon is screwing around with the others? There's a silence where she waits for Jon to talk.
"Oh." Is all he says when he does.
"See! See! I knew I shouldn't have told you."
"No, no. It's cool." Jon's saying but much like the boy had done earlier, she can hear the sadness lacing her own voice. "You shouldn't get upset over it, it's not worth it." Jon tells her.
"Okay." Though if she's being honest, she wasn't really thinking too much of Jon when she was upset over the hook up.
There's a slight awkward silence where they listen to themselves breathing on the line and it hangs there until Cassie breaks it.
"But the show is worriesome too." She points out, she'd rather not be thinking about the show but if it eases Jon's mind then she doesn't mind.
"Nah, you guys' will kick ass." He states, Cassie's voice sounding light once again.
"I'll try to make you proud Jon Walker." She says with a laugh, she really loves Jon's laugh.
"I know you will." It comes out sounding strange, too intiment. Somehow they've been slipping into that lately.
The bus shudders to a stop and a whiny noise escapes through Cassie's throat. "Maybe I was wrong. I can't do this." Jon's voice whispers out.
"No, you can do it. Trust me you can."
Spencer comes out of the back of the bunks, stops outside of Jon's and pulls the curtain back a bit. His eyes seem to shine extra bright in the darkness and he's staring at Jon's body expectantly.
"You ready?" He asks, lips turning up into a smile. Cassie props Jon up. No, she isn't ready but she's going to do it anyway.
*
Jon hangs up the phone and Ryan is peering at him. "What's wrong?" Ryan asks, laptop firm on his lap. Jon shakes Cassie's head, he kinda likes how her hair flips around when he moves her head.
"Nothing." Jon tries to sound like that's the truth.
"You're lying Jon Walker." Ryan says, once again setting the laptop aside and he's patting Jenny's lap. "Wanna snuggle and tell me whats wrong?"
"You just want to feel me up again. Besides, if I told you, you'd probably freak."
Jenny's eyes go wide. "What? Now you have to tell me. Is it about the show? Or Spencer? Ah, did they give me a really ridiculous haircut?" Ryan's rambling and Jon shakes Cassie's head again.
"Nothing like that." Jon says as he slides off the bed and sits on the floor next to Jenny's body. "Apparently, Brendon fucked your body." Jon says and he can feel Jenny's body tense next to him. Ryan's got Jenny's jaw set tight and he's glaring paticularly hard at a photo of Brendon from the website he's on.
"God, well, at least he didn't film it or send me pictures...cause that would be insanely creepy." Even though Ryan wants to believe that Brendon didn't film the sex encounter, Jon still sees him typing in Panic At The Disco sex tapes on YouTube. When Ryan seems sastisfied that there is in fact no tape of Brendon and his body having sex, Ryan turns his attention to Jon.
"But what about you? How do you feel about that?" He asks, Jenny's eyes filled with concern. Jon shrugs Cassie's shoulders, brings the girl's fingers up to run through her hair.
"It's fine I guess. I mean, it's not like I can blame Brendon you know? These aren't normal circumstances." Jon is pointedly avoiding the back of the closed door where there is a collage of photos, Brendon's stupid smiling face staring out at them.
"But it's bothering you."
Jon raises Cassie's eyebrow, which Cassie is really good at doing.
"Her face cannot hide emotion." Ryan points out, looking back to the laptop before he glances at Jon.
"Okay, so maybe I miss him and maybe I'm worried that he'll forget about me while I'm not in my body." Jon states, Cassie's eyes pricking with tears and he's surprised to find that he starts crying a little. Ryan too seems surprised by this, Jenny's eyes widening.
"Dude, are you crying?"
"Shut up!" Jon whines, Cassie's voice taking on a high pitch. "It's..it's the period dude." Jon anwsers, pressing the heel of Cassie's palm against her eyes, wetness spreading against the skin. "Hormones and shit...you know?" Jon adds, he doesn't cry, Jon Walker never cries.
"I seriously do not want to have one of those." Ryan says, Jenny's body shuddering at the thought of spontainiously crying.
*
Spencer makes Cassie and Jenny rehearse without the back up CD on. Needless to say, it doesn't go well. And not only because Cassie only knows two songs and Jenny about one and a half but because Cassie and Jenny aren't actually talking to each other and Brendon's not talking to Spencer.
The notes are jarring and terrible, what Cassie would imagine Panic would sound like if Jon and Ryan were deaf and blind. "Okay, so maybe we do need the CD." Spencer sighs from his position behind the drum kit. He sets his sticks down and goes to cue up the pre-recorded bits, leaving Brendon, Cassie, and Jenny all alone on stage.
Cassie fiddles with the heavy bass in Jon's hands, hits a few notes. She's getting nervous by just looking at the empty venue, workers milling about but she can feel the terror clawing in Jon's chest. Suddenly there's a figure blocking her view of the venue, Brendon standing there in his stupid plaid shirt, his own guitar in his hands.
"Are you mad at me?" He asks, Cassie can feel Jon frowning but at least she thinks that he was frowning before Brendon walked over. She doesn't know, maybe, is what she wants to say but she doesn't.
"I don't want to talk about this right now." She replies, Jon's voice coming out surer than Cassie really feels. Now Brendon's the one frowning and Cassie can see Jenny peering at the two of them. She feels bad but there is no way in hell she can deal with this semi, maybe love triangle of sorts, not when there would be rabid Panic fans watching her in no time.
"Oh, are you alright?" The singer asks, dares to put his warm hand on Jon's shoulder, squeezing. Cassie shakes Jon's head.
"I'm having flash backs to the church incident."
"What the hell is the church incident?" Brendon asks, his lips quirking in an amused smile.
"Cassie's grandpa is a pastor in a church, when she was like, five years old her grandpa made her get up on the pulpit and sing a church song for the entire congregation." Ryan's voice comes from across the stage. Cassie is stuck between a smile and a frown.
"Stop listening to our conversation." Cassie says casually, eyes locked on Ryan's form over Brendon's shoulder.
"Stop standing in front of the microphone." Jenny replies and Cassie glowers.
Spencer returns from backstage eyeing Brendon as he moves back behind his kit. "Brendon, get back to your microphone." Brendon turns and sort of half glares at the drummer.
"Or what? You'll blow Jon again?"
Jenny's laughing from her spot on stage and Cassie, yeah, Cassie's freaking out because this show's going to be so, so bad and it's very likely that Ryan Ross will kill them all.
Luckily, it seems that Brendon is at least a professional because he does go to his spot and they do start up 'Nine In The Afternoon', the recorded parts clicking on instantly. Cassie just does those moves that she saw Jon do, sways back and forth, maybe does a little circle move where she ends up facing Spencer. She keeps his head down, fingers ghosting over chords, at least looking like she's playing the notes.
Jenny is moving around a lot, making Ryan kind of look like he's got something going on in his pants. Cassie cracks a smile at that and almost laughs, almost. She and Jenny do the back up vocals during the song and that's maybe the easiest part, just singing the songs.
With the pre-recorded parts the songs actually sound normal and maybe they'll be okay after all.
Cassie considers trying to make up with Jenny after rehearsal is over, she considers it but then Brendon says something to her that makes Ryan giggle and Cassie thinks, no, no she will not talk to Jenny right now. She could go to Spencer but he looks five different kinds of anxious and he's on the phone with someone who could very well be Ryan. So, instead Cassie sits in the dressing room and texts Krissy.
'Krissy, will you beat up people on the internet if they're mean to me?'
'Well, hello, girl Jon. If I'm going to kick people's asses then I need to know why I am beating up the internet?'
'We're playing a show tonight...'
'Oh em gee. No wai.'
'I'm going to die.'
'Pssh, Man up. I'm jealous, you and Jenny get to perform on stage while I get to babysit your bodies.'
'That's why we love you.'
'Whatever, I'm taking them shopping with me, because Jon's being all sad face and blaming it on his period...and now he's threathening me so, yeah, I gotta go.'
Cassie has to let Krissy go, which really is all for the better because there are voices in the hallway, voices that sound suspiciously like Pete Wentz and Patrick Stump. Sure enough, Spencer comes into the dressing room followed by a grinning Pete Wentz and an adorable Patrick Stump.
"Ah, so here's your bassist." Pete is saying with a knowing smile. Cassie squeaks and wants to fold up in a little ball because fuck, fuck, half of Fall Out Boy is going to be watching this show too.
"Yeah, so Jon, Patrick and I are gonna go talk to Brendon and Ryan for a minute. Show starts in fifteen." Spencer is saying and Cassie pulls a grimace and shifts Jon's body so that his knees are pulled to his chest. Patrick is watching with a concerned look on his face and Cassie sort of forgot that the singer doesn't know about the whole body swapping situation.
"But don't worry because I am staying!" Pete exclaims and he flops down next to Jon's body on the couch, causing Jon to squeak again. Spencer and Patrick watch briefly but Pete urges them on and now Cassie is slightly worried because she's alone in a room with Pete Wentz and she's read enough fan fiction to know that that can't be a good thing.
"You look like you're gonna throw up." Pete points out and Cassie makes Jon sigh.
"I just might."
"Dude, don't freak. Performing is fun."
"Yeah, for people who want to perform."
"It's not so bad." Pete is saying with a shrug, like maybe Cassie's overreacting.
"Oh my god. I'm in Jon Walker's body, about to perform in what feels like a million people and I'm sitting here shooting the breeze with Pete fucking Wentz who I like idolize and have posters of in my room." So, maybe Cassie didn't mean to say all of that and yes, it would be fine if she could just die now please.
Pete's wearing a wide grin and he leans over and huggles Jon's body. "You're like an ego boost in a can."
"Why are you in here anyway? I thought Ryan was your favorite?" It's not that she doesn't want Pete to stay it's just that his presence isn't exactly calming her down. It's still surreal, hanging out with people that you don't think you'll ever even get to meet, people who are untouchable.
Pete leans his head on Jon's shoulder. "He is, Ryan is my one true pairing." Pete says casually and it takes that statement a few moments to sink into Cassie's mind.
"Are you-Are you referencing fan fiction lingo at me?" Cassie asks, Jon's voice sounding completely disbelieving. Pete looks over at Jon and grins.
"Ha, I knew you'd know that term. So, you read the slash?"
Cassie's blushing and she clears Jon's throat. "So, it sounds like you do too."
"Come now, I don't just read it..I write it too."
"Don't fuck around with me Wentz." Cassie threathens and Pete laughs.
"Calm down, just tell me what I can do to make you feel better?" The bassist asks, tilting his head and peering at Jon with quizzical eyes. Cassie makes Jon sigh out, scrubs a hand over his scruffy beard.
"Tell me that the world is made up of sunshine and rainbows and unicorns and that I don't actually have to go out there and pretend to be Jon Walker." The girl whines out in Jon's voice. Pete laughs again, making Cassie's chest freeze, she's still a little starstruck by him, even if he did teach her how to play the bass.
"Or we could make out a little?" He suggests, waggling his eyebrows at Jon.
"Is that your anwser to everything?"
Pete gives her a shrug, "You'd be surprised how often it works."
The two of them sat in almost silence, Pete was rambling on about the first time he performed and how he hadn't been scared at all and she thinks that she hears something about how Patrick puked the first time Fall Out Boy played a show but Cassie can't quite concentrait. She's thinking about everything she's ever wanted to say to Pete Wentz had the opportunity arose but how now all those thoughts are extingiushed from her mind.

"So, we're going to the mall." Krissy says as she tucks her cell phone back into the pocket of her jeans. Ryan looks up from Jenny's laptop and shakes the girls head.
"No way, I have to stay here and compulsively check for info about the show." He states, Jenny's hands clinging to her laptop.
"Ryan, just how many days has it been since you've seen the outside world?" Jon asks, Cassie's toothbrush in his mouth as he leans against the doorframe. Ryan shoots Jon a look and Krissy sighs.
"Nice pants, Walker." Ryan teases, Jon looks down at what he has Cassie wearing, bright pink pajama pants with little fruits on them. Cassie's cheeks pink slightly and Ryan smirks.
"Shut up! It's not my fault that my girl actually dresses like, you know, a girl. Besides, you're the one who wore a vest made of roses Ryan, so you have no room to talk."
Jenny's gaze is sharp against Jon and Krissy is trying to bite back a laugh.
"Doesn't matter what you want Ryan, we're going." Krissy demands and she's using that one stare that makes Ryan all nervous. This is a losing battle. Ryan sets down the laptop and tries to find shoes that match Jenny's shirt.
Jon and Ryan aren't exactly used to not being noticed in public. After being famous for so long you kind of expect people to stare at you when you go places. Especially a mall, especially a Hot Topic in said mall. Krissy had abandoned them upon entering the store, chatting up the guy workers instead. Jon is shuffling around and staring at guy things, Ryan is staring at the band shirts on the wall.
"I didn't even know that half of these shirts existed." He mumbles to himself, sifting through his bands merchandise.
"Maybe because you like Fall Out Boy more?" A voice next to Ryan asks, he whips his head up and sees a dark haired girl, a girl that goes to school with the girls. Jordan, he thinks her name is. Jordan, a.k.a Jenny's secret girlfriend.
"Oh, hey, Jordan. What up?" Shit, that's lame but Ryan's not really good at thinking under pressure. Jordan's grinning at her and Ryan kind of wants to find Krissy or Jon.
"Well," Jordan starts, staring at Jenny expectantly. "Are we going to go make out or what?"
Jenny's jaw goes slack.
"Um, what?" Jenny's voice is small and nervous, not a sound that Ryan's use to. Jordan rolls her eyes.
"You know this store is one of the only places that we can be together in public." The dark haired girl states, wrapping her hand around Jenny's wrist. Ryan's still struggling to find some words to say. He's not exactly opposed to making out but it's not his body, his life. On the other hand Jenny is letting Brendon fuck his body so, maybe kissing the girl won't be so bad afterall.
Ryan catches Jon's eye from across the store. Cassie's eyebrow arched in an interested look.
"Um, I...okay?" Jordan grins wide and presses her hand into Jenny's, leans towards the girl, her mouth tilted and perfectly pink. Unfortunately for Ryan and maybe Jordan, Krissy chooses that moment to come bounding over at that moment, grinning and bouncing up and down.
"You guys! We just got invited to a party!"
chapter eighteen:
"Five minutes to show time guys." One of the stagehands says, popping his head into the dressing room before he's gone just as quickly. Cassie makes a whiny noise, caught deep in Jon's throat. Spencer rests a hand on Jon's shoulder and squeezes. Jenny is staring at her, Ryan's deep brown eyes burning into hers. They haven't talked, haven't really made up yet. Even Brendon is quiet.
"Okay, I know none of us are really talking but-I-I kinda need to do my pre-show ritual." Brendon says, looking up at all of them.
"Bren." Spencer says warningly, Jenny and Cassie exchanging looks.
"It calms me down." The singer insists, his eyes are huge and shining.
"What's your ritual Brendon?" Jenny asks, Ryan's voice curious. Brendon bites his plump lips.
"I make out with Jon." He admits, Cassie looks up barely focusing on the conversation. Brendon's staring at her still biting his lip, god, that makes it so hard to focus!
"I-" Brendon doesn't give her time to anwser.
"Please?" He cuts in. "Do it for the fans?"
"She is the fan." Spencer interjects, Jenny grins but doesn't say anything.
Cassie's trying to weigh the pros and cons here. Pro, it would take her mind off the nerves, con, Brendon is a slut. The pros eventually outweigh the cons and she gives in, nodding and silently letting Brendon drag her to the corner of the room.
He kisses Jon tentively, hand on Jon's jaw. Cassie closes Jon's eyes because she's so, so aware of the fact that Spencer and Jenny are watching her. The kissing isn't natural, forced but it's still nice, warm and Brendon has a nice tongue, slightly rough hands.
i don't check the mail anymore
cause i never expected anything from you
even from the beginning i knew this is how it would end
i wasn't lying when i said 'lets be friends forever'
but forever has come early
there's only so far you can push a person before they give up
baby, you found my limit.
why put faith in you when you don't deserve it?
i hope your looks don't fade too fast
or else that solitary confinment will last and last
John and Spencer went up a hill too fetch a pail of water
John fell down and bumped his head.
and Spencer lost the pail of water.
...wait...
"Jon walk, Jon walker, Let down your hair." Brendon said, his head tilted up towards the gigantic tower that was known as Jon's dungeon.
Jon's head appeared in the window, his face full of relief. and then jon let his long, long hair fall down the side of the tower.
"oh jon walker." Brendon said as he gripped the man's hair and climbed.
"Ow you dumb ass that hurts!" Jon said crying in pain.
"I'm sorry Princess!" Brendon cried climbing up the mans hair more carefully this time. Finally getting too the top and climbing in threw the window.
"Now what sherlock?" Jon said
"umm.. Wanna have sex?" Brendon asked
"sure." Jon agreed pulling the shade on the window too his dungeon and turning out the lights.
THE END.
