Psychology

Elliott was attending college on a football scholarship, but he needed to keep his grades up in order to maintain it. He was sure that wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t spend so much time at practice. His psychology teacher told him he could participate in an experiment for extra credit. That’s where he met Sun.

Sun wanted Elliott to participate in a body swapping experiment. She’d have his body for the next few weeks, and he would have hers. With his body, she’d be the one attending football practice, and he’d be in her body, giving him time to study. Elliott was sure there was something more to it, but agreed because he could use both the extra credit and additional study time.

Being Sun was weird for him. He was probably less than half his former size, female, and Asian. It was a lot to take in, but he was immediately thankful for not having to practice all the time. The very next test he aced. 

A mere three days later, Sun had broken Elliott’s arm in practice. She demanded he swap back early.

Elliott wondered if his reaction to this was what was actually being monitored, but he still couldn’t help but laugh. He didn’t want to go back to his own body early; in fact, he didn’t want to go back to his own body ever. An injury could ruin his career as a football player, but in Sun’s body, he actually had a better guarantee for a solid life. And he knew she couldn’t swap back in the lab without his consent. He was the nerdy Asian girl now, and it was going to stay that way!
