I spent the next few minutes fully focused on the task of cleaning myself. The creek water was cold—no, freezing—the kind of cold that would make any normal person shiver just from touching it. Yet, sothing caught off guard: my resistance to the cold seed to have increased a lot.

To be honest, I was never soone who handled low temperatures well; at best, I’d grit my teeth and endure them out of sheer stubbornness. But now, that sharp, biting chill felt like nothing more than a faint, almost irrelevant discomfort.

So there I was, bathing calmly, not particularly bothered by the icy water—a fact that, honestly, had surprised quite a bit at first. Still, I took advantage of the mont to use both my bodies, helping myself reach tricky spots like my back, carefully scrubbing away the dust and gri that had built up.

Once again, there was no reaction to the touch or to the sight; honestly, it felt no different than washing myself—just with an extra pair of hands and an oddly natural acceptance of it all. In the end, I washed every inch of my body, and that alone brought a comfort I hadn’t felt in a long ti.

When you go so long without bathing, it’s strange how water can feel like so kind of natural purifier—or at least, that’s how it felt as it ran over , carrying away dust, sweat, and a bit of my exhaustion.

But just as my female body was soaping up the back of my male body, my ears twitched instinctively. Almost at the sa mont, both of my bodies turned toward the sa direction: the place I had co from.

It didn’t take long for Alice to step out from between the bushes, gently pushing branches and leaves aside. And then, in the very next instant, a bizarre scene unfolded before us: she simply froze, staring at , her gaze darting hesitantly between my two bodies. I, in turn, just stared back—or rather, that was all I could do.

I honestly have no idea how long that silent exchange lasted—maybe just a few seconds? Still, it was more than enough for to notice Alice’s face flush bright red, as if heat had suddenly rushed into her cheeks. She quickly averted her gaze, turning her head away as if that could hide her sudden wave of embarrassnt. Newest update provided by Nove1Fire

“Ah!” Alice blurted, looking a little lost, as though she didn’t know where to start: “Sorry... I had no idea you two would be here... well... doing exactly what you’re doing”

To be honest, Alice’s words sounded a little odd, almost as if she were implying sothing. And, in fact, when I realized the position I was in, it was impossible not to understand what was going through her mind.

Long story short: Alice’s sudden appearance had caught so off guard that I hadn’t even noticed the breasts of my female body pressed against the back of my male body. Of course, that realization only hit now, in that exact mont—and, let’s be real, it’s not the kind of thing you usually notice in your day-to-day life. I was no exception.

In the end, while Alice kept facing the other way, I carefully guided Justin’s male body to a more distant part of the creek, far enough to be out of her line of sight. The cold water caressed my skin as I sank a little deeper, until only the area from my collarbone up remained above the surface, almost as if I were trying to blend into the creek itself.

Then, noticing it was now just —in that female body—and Alice, I took a deep breath before speaking. My voice, soft and feminine, carried a calculated calmness, though inside, the confusion over the whole situation still simred: “You can look now, Alice. I sent Justin to a more distant part of the creek”

Hearing my words, Alice slowly turned toward , her eyes opening with a hint of hesitation. Her gaze swept the area, as if searching for my male body. When she realized I wasn’t nearby, she let out a sigh of relief. Honestly, her reaction only managed to draw an amused smile from —there was sothing oddly funny about that mix of nervousness and relief on her face.

Yeah... while that thought was still echoing in my head, I heard Alice’s quiet, hesitant voice break the brief silence. She seed to weigh each word before letting it out: “So... what exactly were you two doing here... alone?”

For so reason, Alice’s gaze carried a hint of suspicion—or at least, that’s how I interpreted it. I couldn’t bla her; from the point of view of anyone who wasn’t literally in my skin, the way she’d found was, at the very least, peculiar... maybe even unsettling, depending on how active one’s imagination was.

But honestly, I didn’t have much to hide... or rather, I felt like if I tried to, I’d only make things weirder. So, without overthinking it, I simply said: “I was washing up... you know, it’s been a long ti since we’ve had a proper bath”

Alice’s eyes blinked rapidly at my words, as if she were trying to process what I’d just said. After a mont’s hesitation, she tilted her head slightly and asked, in a tone mixing curiosity and disbelief: “But... why wash both at the sa ti?”

The mont I heard her question, a faint smirk slipped out before I realized it. I couldn’t help but find her reaction amusing: “I know exactly what you’re thinking” I began, shaking my head: “But honestly, I don’t feel the slightest bit of physical attraction toward myself. It’d be pretty weird if I did, don’t you think? And, for the record, I just confird that a mont ago—seeing myself naked from two different perspectives didn’t make feel anything. I just wanted to save ti, that’s all”

Alice blushed lightly at my words, but at the sa ti, she seed to understand my point. Still, the curious sparkle in her eyes was impossible to ignore. She clearly wanted to ask more questions, though she hesitated, as if weighing whether it was appropriate. Personally, I didn’t mind—honestly, I was even willing to answer if she asked.

In the end, I just watched Alice in silence. At the sa ti, I let my body sink slightly into the creek’s crystal-clear water; while it wasn’t deep, it was still spacious enough to cool off and relax in. The gentle sound of the current filled the air, making those quiet seconds almost hypnotic. But the peace was broken by the sudden rustle of Alice’s clothes.

Instinctively, I turned to her—and to my surprise, she was now down to her underwear. I won’t lie, that really caught off guard. I knew Alice had always been sowhat comfortable with my female form, but we’d never reached a level of intimacy quite this... bold.

At least, not to the point where we’d be fine showing that much skin to each other. Of course, that thought loses a bit of weight when I rember that I was currently completely naked.

Then, as if my presence didn’t matter in the slightest, Alice stepped slowly into the cold water and settled in beside . A slight shiver ran over her shoulders, but she let out a satisfied smile.

“So cold!” she murmured, hugging her arms: “But it’s been so long since I’ve had a bath like this... it feels strangely nice”

I glanced at Alice from the corner of my eye, noticing the faint, almost imperceptible confusion on her face. Still, the more I looked at her, the more I realized one thing: she truly didn’t seem bothered by my presence. And that, in itself, was curious... maybe even unsettling. But asking about it? That would sound even weirder—like I was overly aware of it.

But as if she’d sensed at least part of my unease, Alice, walking right beside , tilted her head slightly and asked curiously: “What is it?”

Hearing her question, I stayed quiet for a mont, feeling the words build up in my throat. Then, letting out a resigned sigh, I spoke without thinking too much about the consequences: “Don’t you feel... embarrassed? I an, I know this body is female, but originally... I was a man”

Alice shot a sidelong glance, holding it for a few seconds before letting out a brief, almost amused chuckle. Then, she spoke with a tone that made it sound like she was stating sothing way too obvious to even need saying: “That’s what you’re worried about? You know... I’ve realized for a while now that your female body doesn’t show the slightest romantic interest in other won”

Her words widened my eyes—I hadn’t expected anyone to notice. As Alice had said, for so reason, through the eyes of my female body, I rarely saw a pretty girl as anything more than her appearance. Alice herself was living proof of that. Observing her through both my bodies, I could tell the feelings were subtly different.

Of course, as Justin, I wasn’t in love with her... but I could say with so certainty that if I let myself, I could fall for her. But with my female body, it simply didn’t happen—though... maybe I could force those feelings if I really tried.

Of course, that didn’t necessarily an my female body saw other n as potential romantic interests either. Honestly, from this body’s physical perspective, my feelings toward romance in general were indifferent. I didn’t feel genuine attraction toward either n or won—though I had the impression I could fake it if I wanted to. Either way, my male body remained exactly the sa in that regard, with no noticeable changes.

Since Alice didn’t seem to care about any of that, I just let it go too. In the end, we both simply enjoyed the sensation of the cold water running over us, chatting lightly about random, trivial things.

So ti later, we left the creek, our skin still tingling from the contrast with the air, and started putting our clothes back on. When we were done, our eyes t for a brief mont.

As she looked up and down for no apparent reason, Alice suddenly blurted out, almost like a stray thought escaping: “You know... I’ve always wanted to say this. You look great in those clothes. They suit you perfectly”

Honestly, her words were so unexpected and out of the blue that I was montarily unsure how to react. In the end, I just thanked Alice, who was looking at with a mischievous smile and a raised thumb, as if approving every second of this absurd situation.

Either way, after that, we headed back toward the cave. On the way, Alice and I barely spoke—honestly, we’d already talked about just about everything while bathing in the creek.

Still, the more I thought about what had happened, the more I realized how unusual the whole situation was. Then again... maybe “unusual” wasn’t even the right word, considering that monts earlier, Alice had found bathing completely naked—not just in one body, but in both.

After so walking, Alice and I finally reached the entrance to the cave we’d been staying in. The cool air there contrasted with the stifling warmth of the path, bringing brief relief. As soon as we stepped into the shadow of the entrance, we saw Oliver standing just ahead.

He seed completely absorbed in sothing in front of him. From our perspective, he was just staring into nothing, but his fixed, focused look made it clear he was carefully reviewing his current stats.

Noticing our approach, Oliver raised a hand in a casual wave, a faint smirk forming on his lips. His eyes lit up for a mont, carrying a mix of relief and satisfaction: “Ladies, welco back” he said warmly, in a tone that made it impossible not to smile back.

For a mont, I blinked, surprised. The way he addressed sounded strange to my ears—not that he was entirely wrong, but... it still didn’t lessen the uncomfortable feeling of being referred to that way.
