Why are you crying? Is something wrong?" She patted me on my back while I watched my tears fall. I'm a guy and I shouldn't cry but what else could i do? My whole life just fell apart. Life was already hard enough and now this? A woman? Seriously?
Hell. That's what life is. This isn't even surprising, Life was already shitty.
I was on a bed when I woke up and judging from the smell, it must have been a girl's bedroom. I rubbed my eyes and touched my face.
My skin felt smooth like a girl's. I looked down and I screamed in frustration except my scream wasn't like a scream, it was a girly shriek (You hate hearing those in the middle of the night) and that's when this lady came running to me out of nowwhere. She scared the shit outta me. For a second I forgot that i wasn't me anymore. Hell, I didn't even notice there was another bed in the room.
She kept on patting my back. "Nova are you okay?"
I looked at her. What? Nova?
"Where's the mirror?" I asked her.
"Right -right there" she pointed and looked at me worriedly.
I ran and faced the full length mirror in the room. Standing in front of me was the beautiful girl I'm in love with.
To think I'm in her body.
That sounded so wrong.
This couldn't be a coincidence.
Shit This means she's in my body.
"What if she doesn't like my room or my body?" I think out loud to myself.
"W-what are you talking about?
You like girls?"
"No no hahaha nothing like that" I say nervously.
Nodding slowly, The lady looked at me and then walked back to her bed.
"Okay. Go to sleep, We got school in the morning."
School! Shit. I forgot about school. What am I going to do? I'll have to talk to Nova about this or do I ignore her?
I know she doesn't want to talk to me but now she has to. Maybe this happened for a reason. Maybe this is my chance to fix everything.
No matter how weird and strange this is.
If this is supposed to be an opportunity to fix everything then I have to take it. If i can be a friend to her, If i can make her smile then I'm grateful that we switched.
She never talks to me anymore. The only time she does is when she picks on me and I let her.
Even though I have a reputation to uphold in school. Even though I'm popular and loved by many. My friends always wonder why I let her do that. They hate her so much even though they shouldn't. Why hate someone when you don't know them?
The girls wonder why she picks on a sweet guy like me and the guys tell me to 'teach her a lesson she'll never forget' but like always, I tell them to mind their own business. Everyone has a weak spot and mine is Nova. She is my remedy and I am her pain.
"This happened for a reason. I know it." I sigh and I go to lie on nova's bed.
It smells of Nova and apples.
"Nova i'm sorry" I say to myself, before closing my eyes. That was the last thing I said before I fell asleep.

This happened for a reason
