I jumped about a foot in my seat spilling my coffee all over me. "Ow, ow, ow. Hot!" I say, wiping at the coffee on my chest. "That hurt." I said, getting out of the car.

I laugh. "Hahaha! Oh man, I'm sorry. You ok?" The car behind us in the drivethru honked long and loud. "You better get back in the car before they run you over!"

"Jerk." i said, getting back into the car. "Here's your doughnuts already." I said, putting them into his lap. I then started driving home.

"Ha ha! Heh heh, heh... haaah..." I calmed down. "Ok, so you know all about me, but I don't know much about you. I'm guessing you're a water mage or something? But you're not bookish enough to be a mage. So maybe... I dunno." I bit into a hot doughnut. Creme dribbled down my chin. "Oh!" I said, pulling out my wallet. "Here's what I owe you for the doughnuts, by the way."

"Thanks." I said. "You know, that really hurt, and you're laughing about it. There is something sickishly wrong with you. I'm a water elementalist." I said. "Mages are just snot noses who wish to be wizards"

"Sorry," I grinned. "What's an elementalist? And I thought mages and wizards were the same thing, like synonyms or something?" I finished off my third doughnut.

"Nope. Mostly, I can control water using my mind, though I have to concentrate to not unconciously doing it." I said. "You should shift into a girl. It may be a little easier to get past my Dad that way."

"Oh, hey, that's a good idea." I started to shift, but stopped. I looked over at Florence. She seemed very intent on driving. "What do humans find attractive in males? Or females? I never understood. I think that's why I never did a passible impression of a human."

I started laughing really hard. "I don't know. I'm not even human. Well, when you look at me, what's the first thing you notice?" I asked.

"Your big eyes!" I exclaim, then slapped a hand over my mouth. "They're quite beautiful." I thought about it some more. "I also like your ears. But I don't think that's normal for humans, so that doesn't help me." I almost asked what she liked about me, but didn't because I was somewhere between male and female at the moment. I reverted back to male. "What do you find attractive about me?" I asked, totally not finding the question awkward at all.

"Hmmm, we usually refer to power and status in my race. The guys I have crushes on are usually tall and dark haired. My friend says I like the Superman type." I said, pulling into my drive way.

"Wait," I said, grabbing her arm before she got out of the car. "Do you mean... like this?" I shifted, still holding her arm lightly but firmly, not squeezing. I looked into her eyes. I gulped, then grinned and gave her a wink.

"That's really cool that you can do that. Yeah, that's what I mean. But can you change into a girl now?" I asked, noticing him holding my wrist.

"Oh, um, yeah, right," I said, suddenly feeling very weird. I dropped my arm into my lap and stared straight ahead. I am such a weirdo... I thought to myself. I shifted into a young girl, younger than Florence by perhaps two years. "Is this ok?" I ask.

"Perfect. It must be so weird being a shifter." I said. "Hurrying let's try to get past my..." But it was too late. "Brothers." I groaned. Two older boys came running down the hall, which rippled like a wave under them. It knocked me down, right on my butt. "Ouch." I said getting up. "Oops, sorry Flo." James, the older of the twins said. The twins, James and Dean, were built like tanks, just like their element. "It's fine. I'm just going up stairs. A friend isa staying with us while her parents are out of town." I said, dragging Jule up the stairs and closing the door behind me before any worst damage could come to my butt.
