A Much Needed Escape
🕑 Added 2018-11-20 17:01:04 +0000 UTC “Honestly, how are you such a fuck-up? Go on, give me an answer. Were you dropped on your fucking head as a child or something?”Sam was pretty certain that no boss should ever talk to their employees in such a manner but rules didn’t seem to apply to his manager who had made his life a living hell for the past two years. It was bad enough that he was working a minimum wage retail job but then he had to deal with the consistent mocking and berating that came with having the human personification of the devil himself as a boss.
Not only did his boss give him hell at work but had also interfered in his personal life, costing Sam his last relationship and withholding a promised bonus had caused Sam to get in trouble with his landlord concerning overdue rent. It was enough to make anyone crumble and sure enough Sam had watched many of his coworkers quit over the boss’ treatment, even if he seemed to have it out for Sam more than anyone else. Truthfully Sam wasn’t sure what he’d ever done to anger the older man but he was sure that by now it was far too late to rectify any supposed crime.
Today though Sam found himself at breaking point and the latest tirade had him desperate for an escape. Thankfully one provided itself as a handsome man entered the store, oblivious to the tension he was wading through. With dark hair and a neatly trimmed beard decorating his handsome face, he was an absolute treat to Sam’s eyes, not to mention the strong body that head found itself upon. Even through the maroon tee the man wore, Sam could see powerful trap muscles and boulder-like shoulders which only added to the desirability of the new arrival.
Muttering under his breath, Sam allowed his inner mind to reach out and grab hold of the other man’s soul. To the outside world it likely appeared as if he was having some sort of seizure, his body rigid and jolting unnaturally. Truthfully Sam felt only the smallest pain as he forced himself out of his own body and across the link he had made to the other man’s body where he encountered the other’s soul. Sam wasn’t evil and he most certainly felt guilty at what he was doing but he was a man pushed to his limits and simply couldn’t take a second longer in his miserable life, repeatedly pushed down by his tormentor as if he was nothing more than a bug on the receiving end of a boot.
Forcing the man out of his body and across the link to Sam’s own body, the now-former store assistant then severed the link and inhaled sharply. His powerful chest rose and fell and his vision swam for a moment as he stood rooted to the spot, now on the other side of the store counter. He first caught sight of his boss, still as sour faced as ever, and then turned to where his own body remained frozen in shock. Doing his best to squash the guilt he felt as panic clearly began to seep into the other’s features, Sam turned on his heel and charged out of the store as quickly as possible.
Fishing car keys out of his pocket, he thanked the heavens for wireless locking systems and was quickly able to identify a bright red truck as his new ride. Getting behind the wheel, Sam faintly heard the all-too-familiar yells of his former boss and turned to see his body departing the store, making quick progress towards him. Avoiding the other’s gaze, Sam fired the engine up and pushed his foot down on the pedal to power out of the car park with an almighty roar.
After some ten minutes of driving the tight feeling in his chest began to ease up and Sam allowed a laugh to escape from his lips. Within the hour he would have begun inheriting memories of the body he now possessed and by the next morning he was certain that the former occupant of his new body would have forgotten their old life entirely, leaving him safe to continue on as this dark-haired hunk. There was already so much about this new body that he wanted to explore but his sudden discovery of a wedding band on his ring finger had Sam incredibly excited for what he’d find when he got back to wherever the man had called home. Now he just had to wait and see whether it would be a husband or wife waiting for him - either way, he was going to have a lot of fun!
