"What the fuck did you do?" the voice on the other end demands, on the edge of yelling, but sounding like it's trying to keep itself to a whisper.
"Who is this?" you ask, feeling like you should know. They sound so familiar, almost like...
"I'm you!" the voice hisses, and full understanding dawns.
"You're..."
"Sue!" the voice snaps.
You grin, revelling in the moment. You've hated your sister as much as you've lusted after her. The fact that she's dumb as a brick and your parents favorite and made your life a living hell makes the thought of her suffering particularly satisfactory.
"Hey, are you at the camp?" you say, suddenly remembering that you were at a summer camp just last night. Mosquito-clouds, poison ivy, forced physical labor (called sports by the sadists running the cursed place), and minimal time to read, no time to play real games, and constant lectures. In short, Hell.
"Yes," she bites out. "I'm at your nerd-camp. Now get me out of here! Switch back, now!"
"Sorry, sister dear, but that's not in the cards," you drawl. Of course you have no idea how this happened, or how long it will last, but you don't want to tell her that.
If it's a dream it's a particularly satisfying one, what with her string of curses that would make the counsellors horrified if they heard.
"Well you enjoy your camp," you say sweetly, a devilish thought surfacing. "I'm going to think about what to do with this body now..."
"What? Did you see me naked? Don't you dare take off your clothes. Don't touch any part of me, don't look at any part of me..."
"Too late, I'm naked as a jaybird by the window," you say, and shrug off the robe to make it true.
Another string of curses greets your ear and you pull the phone a few inches away. "Maybe I'll go for a stroll outside. Or flirt with that old geezer next door who's always ogling you..."
"If you dare to show anyone my body I'll kill you. Don't show it to anyone, don't wear anything revealing, don't go out in public, don't touch it... anywhere... Don't flirt, kiss, touch or, uh, do anything with anyone! You hear me?" she demands, like you're not going to take all that as a grocery list of what to do.
"Oh I don't know. I thought about having an orgy and getting some tats and piercings. Then maybe I'll go sell this body on a street corner and..."
A scream greets your ears, making you thankful you'd pulled the phone away from your ear. She starts screaming unintelligible things at you, each 'I forbid you...' giving you new ideas on what situation to leave her body in for when she inevitably switches back.
Finally someone on the other end hears her and yanks the phone away, yelling at her to stop yelling.
You don't even wait for anyone to talk to you and hang up, thinking of all the things your sister would most definitely not want you to do, and pondering which to do first. |
