Prince Charming/Waking Up

When you open your eyes, you're surprised to find yourself in Matron's treatment room. You've got a pounding headache and opening your eyes makes it worse so you promptly close them again.

"Sorry," a voice says. "Try again, I've turned the lights down."

You open your eyes a crack and find that it's not quite as bad this time. "Wha, what happened," you say. For some strange reason, your voice has gone all croaky.

An arm comes round behind you and helps you sit up. Now you're sure where you are and realise that it's Matron helping you. She swings your legs around so that you're sitting on the edge of her couch and you realise that there is a lot of things that don't seem quite right. For one thing, Matron seems to have shrunk and got a lot older; you also seem to have grown some muscles, and now you're sitting up, you realise that your feet are touching the floor.

"What's going on," you ask.

"You were playing rugby and crashed heads with Roger. Considering his thick skull, it's no big surprise that you came off worse. "Here, have a drink of water."

You take the glass from her and managed to spill most of the water down your front. She fetches another one and this time she holds it up your lips so that you can swallow some. "I feel weird," you croak. "Everything seems smaller, apart from me, and I seem to have grown.

"What's the last thing you remember?"

You think hard. "Sex Ed with the nun," you say.

Matron nods. "Did she give you a wish?"

"Yes."

"That explains it," she says. "The Nun is the school's Fairy Godmother and apart from granting your wish," whatever it was, she's also jumped you forward four years. Don't ask me why, she always has a good reason for everything she does, but it looks as if you don't have any memory of the last four years."

"But, but you said I was playing rugby."

"You were, and you been going to all your lessons
