Ex

“Come on, Jenny,” Sebastian mumbled to himself as he sat on the bench waiting for his sister, “Any day now would be great.”

He was growing impatient as his sister was quite late. Then again, he couldn’t believe she had talked him into this in the first place. Jenny always dated the wrong types of guys and was pretty afraid that her most recent ex might do something to harm her. She begged Sebastian to threaten him just so he’d leave her alone. He refused. Then she came back with a second offer. She pulled out a small medallion and told her brother that she could do the threatening; she just needed to borrow his body for a while. The idea of body swapping seemed crazy, so he agreed. Sebastian was shocked after she touched the medallion to him, and the two did indeed switch bodies. She ran off, and told him to wait for her.

As he waited, he felt his phone vibrate in his back pocket. Sebastian didn’t recognize the number, but he answered it to hear Jenny on the other end. She was calling from the police station. She apparently took threatening her ex a little too far and now needed Sebastian to come bail her out. He groaned. In a few short hours, he was pretty sure his sister had managed to screw up his entire life.
