If I Was a Rich Girl (Part 1)

With nearly all his credits out of the way, Luke only had one class left to take to complete his University courses in his final semester of senior year. It was a required course that many dreaded. It was meant as an introductory class to teach tolerance for incoming freshman, but many put it off until their final year. This was because they would be forced to spend the semester in someone else’s body, and this just didn’t sit well with many students. Luke sighed deeply before opening the envelope containing the name of the person he would swap with. The form letter was followed by the name: Erin Birches. He groaned. Erin was a senior, like him, but that’s where the similarity ended. Erin was rich and spoiled. No one really liked her. Luke groaned again. Starting tomorrow, he would BE her. He expected more of a ceremony. Instead, he just woke up the next day in her body. She must’ve gone out the night before. He could taste stale beer still in her mouth, and she obviously had just slept in her clubbing outfit. He stood up and could clearly feel a hangover. But digging through her purse, he found her wallet full of cash along with her credit cards. Suddenly, he realized an upside to being stuck in the body of a rich girl for a while.
