Content warning: Mind control, nonconsensual impregnation

I wouldn't have done it if Julia hadn't been such a bitch about bumping into us.
Andy and I were out for a walk. There's a path that winds its way through the woods near our house that stays pretty shady for much of the day. I get tired easily, but we'd jogged for a few minutes that day before I'd paused at the bend to lean against the willow tree.
"Doing okay?" he asked.
"Yeah," I replied with a grin. "Just saving my energy for this evening."
"Ooh," he replied, raising his eyebrows. "Are you suggesting that I might get lucky after our date this evening?"
"Mmmmaybe," I said. "I did pick up some more condoms. Or you could do without."
He smiled, and wrinkled his brow. "Next year we'll have the baby room ready and I promise to breed you as thoroughly as you want. Deal?"
Before I could reply, a tall blonde shape came pelting around the blind corner at a full run. I only had time to notice her bouncing ponytail before her hip sent me flying. If Andy hadn't been right there, I would have gone ass over teakettle.
"Hey!" Andy yelled, as she recovered her balance and kept running. "What the hell?"
"Track!" she yelled.
I winced, as Andy helped me up; I'd pulled something in my back. The blonde woman kept running; perhaps she was embarrassed or perhaps she didn't care.
"What an asshole," Andy said. "Are you alright?"
"I'll live," I said. It was pretty sure my back would be an achy mess by dinnertime, though. I looked at the woman as she jogged away. Trying not to be jealous of the curves of her ass, I focused my attention on her and pushed.
I am strange in a number of ways - I'm pretty short, and I get tired easily, and my eyes are a light shade of violet. But the most notable way is that I can borrow other people's bodies.
I have to touch the person first, and it takes some effort to make the connection, but once I have it I can use their body as though it was my own. Their mind falls into a dreamless slumber, and my body passes out, and I am in their body, seeing through their senses. I've used the power sparingly, only greeting a couple of billionaires and getting them to make small donations to me, but as I watched the woman jog away I couldn't help myself.
She stumbled, as my psychic presence slid into her mind. She caught herself before she could fall, and shook her head at the weird sensation.
"Are you...trying to borrow her?" Andy asked. "Because, she's an asshole but don't go too far, alright?"
"We won't hurt her," I agreed. "But, if my back is hurting too much for date night, I want to have another option."

My back was indeed aching terribly by the time we got back to our house. Andy helped me up the stairs, and we sat together as I took a couple of aspirin and willed the muscles to relax.
"I'm really sorry she hurt you like that," Andy said, squeezing my hand. "Can I do anything to help you feel better?"
I shook my head. "It'll feel better once I rest," I said. "But I'd hate to leave you hanging on date night."
"You know I'm happy to be with you," he said. "No matter how you feel. We can do date night another time, when you're feeling better."
I smiled, and reached up to caress his cheek, ignoring the pain in my shoulder as I did so. "You're a sweetie."
"I try."
"Well, I do think I have a solution for everyone. I'll lie down in the guest room, and then the girl who bumped into us will come over. You can have a date with her."
"You mean...is that why you were connecting with her?"
"Yeah," I said.
"Well..." he said. "It might be a little strange, but if it makes you happy, sure."
A thousand thoughts rushed through my head, of what I could do with her body once I was in it. I didn't know which wild ideas were possible, but I could find out. I smiled.
"It would definitely make me happy."

The experience of borrowing someone's body is a bit of a rush. For a moment I see and feel from both bodies, and the bombardment of sensations is almost painfully intense. But then, over a few seconds, my own body fades into sleep, and I slip into theirs.
When I finished taking over her body, the woman who had bumped into us was sitting on her couch and watching TV. I reached for her remote and turned it off, then looked around her apartment.
Her purse was on the floor near the door. Her driver's license told me that her name was Julia, and judging by her address she was only a few blocks from our house. She had a half empty box of condoms in the front pocket, which told me something about what she did and did not put in her body.
God, her body. It was a marvel. Her biceps were big enough that her sports t-shirt was tight around her arms, and her calves were beautifully muscled. Every movement I made as I got a feel for my temporary body felt effortless and predatory, as though I was a tiger prowling her territory.
I stepped out of her front door, carrying only her keys, and decided to jog towards my house, where Andy was waiting. In my own body I would have had to stop and catch my breath after a block, and I laughed as I blew past that marker and kept running.
I was still smiling when I reached my front door and rang the bell. Andy opened the door and looked up at me, expectant and yet hesitant. My heart raced to see him, and I exulted just a bit at being taller than him.
"Hey there," I said.
"Hi," he said. "Is that you, Melissa?"
I smiled my own smile, which felt shy and out of place. "For our date, my name is Julia," I said. "I'm really sorry about bumping into you earlier."
"All is forgiven," he said.
"Well, I still thought I should show you a good evening to make it up to you," I replied.
He hesitated for a moment. I could see him wondering how far I'd take things, and wondering how far he wanted me to take them. He couldn't leave me hanging, though, and he stepped back so I could enter.
