Go see Jimmy

Knock knock!

“Huh, who is it?”

Jimmy mumbled, hearing the light rapping at his bedroom door.

“It’s your favorite housemate! Can I come in?”

“Huh??”

He spun in his gamer chair, surprised, before replying:

“Rachel? Oh, uhm, yeah sure, come in!”

I opened the door to find his room messy, left over cup noodle packs on the desk beside him, as he sat in shorts, mismatched socks and an oversized novelty t-shirt that featured the words: “Women want me, fish fear me.”

I couldn’t help but giggle at how hapless he looked, even as Rachel’s looted memories let me know he’d been spending a little bit too much time stuck in this room gaming recently.

“Spreading democracy across the galaxy again?”

“Oh, uhm, yeah, that’s right.”

His monitor screen lit up with a huge explosion, as one of his teammates killed themselves detonating a massive bomb in the distance, taking out dozens of aggressive, freakishly large bugs at the same time.

“Looks like fun. And a little bit like how people’s parents usually describe their commutes to school back in the day.”

We both laughed a little, as I helped myself to his bed, crossing my legs as I sat down. The last time I’d been in here, I’d been sharing my newly acquired curse with him. Full of anxiety, fear, self-hatred. Needing to tell someone, anyone. I wasn’t sure if it was the crazy high amounts of pleasure I’d experienced in the last few days, or the sense of happy acceptance I’d received from Rachel, but I was a lot more calm, content and in control than I’d been before.

Maybe it’s just looking down and seeing this view though…

My legs were slender yet shapely, pale and totally devoid of hair, as they came up from my platform boots and terminated in the tight black skirt I was wearing. A black corset decorated my midriff, actually feeling comfortable, barely having to do any reshaping of Rachel’s naturally super feminine silhouette.

Finally, the low-cut top I’d picked out drew the eyes to Rachel’s breasts, pale and perky as they sat proudly on my chest. I shivered a little with satisfaction, taking in this view being such a thrill. This was only my second time inside Rachel’s skin, but it felt so irresistible.

“So, Rachel… you don’t usually come to my room. What’s up?”

“I’m in love with you.”

“What??”

His eyes bulged as he spasmed a little, surprise almost causing him to fall out of his chair.

“It’s time I admitted it Jimmy, I can’t resist you! The confident way you control the spoon when you have your cereal in the morning, your mastery of games, and the way you care about your friends, I just can’t resist anymore.”

I closed the distance, pulling him into a hug, rubbing my body against his. I could feel him hardening, giving me a perverse sense of satisfaction.

I can’t resist teasing you a little… plus knowing I have this effect on guys is such a twisted ego boost. Am I too much of a slut in a girl’s body~?

I leaned in close to his ear, and whispered in Rachel’s teasing voice:

“Juusssttt kidding~”

“Jesus, Rachel, phew. Don’t say things like that if you don’t mean them!”

Jimmy practically collapsed back on his chair as I let him go, like a puppet cut from the strings of desire. I suppose anyone would be overcome by a confession out of the blue from the hot goth girl in their lives.

“Okay, okayyy, sorry. I couldn’t help but tease you a little. I’ll tell you the real reason I came to see you.”

His eyebrow went up, his face inscrutable. Since “Rachel” had been so unpredictable, it seemed his mood had to follow suit.

“I’ve been worried about you. You’ve been so cooped up in your room, barely going out. Even skipping classes. Bad boy, by the way. Your academics are important, you know?”

“Well, yeah… I’ve just been gaming a lot. There’s a new update in this game, and they added a bunch of new content, so I’ve been a bit addicted…”

As much as I could believe anyone could get addicted to the exciting scenes on his monitor, I couldn’t help but find his admission a little unconvincing. There was a lowness in his tone, along with a skittish motion of his eyes, that seemed to stand out to me. There was more going on here than he wanted to admit.

He must still be ruminating over what I told him… it would take anyone a few days to understand. Your best friend losing his humanity is a big deal.

But… even if it’s not as myself, I still want to help him.

“Mhmm, well, as exciting as that game looks, the outside world is more exciting. C’mon, you’re only in university once. It’s an exciting time in your life, you have to get out and do things. I promise the game will still be here when you come back.”

He looked a little unsure. I knew from my own experience, that when you’re stuck inside, gaming, doing nothing, it could almost become a vicious cycle, like a whirlpool sucking you down and taking your energy, making it that much harder to get out into the world.

I took his hands, noting how different they felt now I had different fingers. They were thicker, and warmer, and a warmer color too compared to my own slender, white digits, tipped with deep black nails.

“Just come out with me tonight, okay? I want to make sure you’re feeling alright. Then you can go back to your game. I promise.”

His heart wavered, before his resolve broke. How could anyone resist getting invited out like that? Internally, I congratulated myself for being so convincing, although really I knew it was all Rachel’s skin that was making me persuasive.

“Okay, okay, I’ll come out with you! I guess I could touch some grass once in a while. Just let me get cleaned up first, okay? I’m not sure my current outfit is the best for out and about.”

“Hmm I don’t know, I kinda like it!”

I giggled, before he got caught up in my energy and laughed too. Forgotten on the screen behind him, his character was gobbled up by a horde of monstrous insects.
