"Liam?" the young lady stood in the doorway of the waiting room called out.
There was only one person in the waiting area of the clinic, and he slowly tilted his head up to meet the gaze of the blonde nurse stood a few metres from him.
"Dr. Vince is ready for you, love," she said and smiled at the 19 year-old, a hint of sympathy on her face.
The sofa, wrapped in clear plastic, creaked as he stood up. Walking the few steps towards the nurse, he read the tag on her left breast.
Nurse Ella Pointer - Registered Regression Nurse.
She led him down a short hallway, making a right turn which led into another short hallway. At the very end was a tall wooden door, which she grabbed the handle of and turned with some difficulty. It was clearly an older building, having been a dental practice before it was turned into a small little clinic on the edge of town.
The wooden floors of the hallway didn't feel very medical - and the dim lights in the ceiling made it feel almost cozy. The pitter-patter of raindrops on the roof, faintly audible through the thick layer of soundproofing, created a calm atmosphere in the building.
Poking her head inside first to make sure the doctor was ready, she fully swung the door open, gesturing for Liam to enter as she held it.
He set foot inside, and immediately the whole atmosphere was different. No longer was he in a cozy little hallway with wooden floors and dim lights, but instead in a harshly lit consultation room.
He first saw the doctor, Dr. Vince, sat behind her desk in front of him. She looked very much unlike he had expected her to. Her face was round and lightly freckled, with dark brown eyes and plump, light pink lips. Her hair was a very dark brown, with a purple sheen to it. It looked lovely under the bright lights of the consultation room.
The riffled dark blue carpet looked harsh, and he traced along it until his eyes met the main attraction of the room. A somewhat large medical table which resembled somewhat of a diaper changing bench. Liam gulped, noticing the nursery-like wallpaper which surrounded it. Its blue leather padding looked almost... inviting, though. The cabinets on the walls were a light beige colour with silver handles, hiding away any scary tools from the curious eyes of a patient.
"Have a seat, love," Dr. Vince's voice snapped him out of his anxious gaze.
As he slowly sat down on the comfy leather chair opposite the doctor, she grinned at him as she extended her soft hand. He met it with his own, and they shook hands. Her grip was surprisingly firm, he noted.
"You're Liam, right?" she asked sweetly, looking over his file which Ella had placed in front of her.
"Y- yeah," he stuttered nervously.
"Okay, very good," she said absent-mindedly as she quickly scanned his file before looking back up. "Well, I'm Dr. Vince, but you'll call me Dr. Lily, got it?"
"O... okay," he confirmed, nodding slowly.
"Okay, who?" she asked, raising her eyebrows in expentance.
"Okay... um... Doctor Lily,"
"Very good," she nodded, taking a pen from the little stationery holder to her left.
It had already started, they were already making clear that they were his superiors. He gulped again, more nervously than before, as she placed the tip of her pen on the page.
"And you're here for...
therapy
," she read from his file before looking up at him. "I know we keep things rather secretive over the phone here, but you can let me know what exactly this
therapy
entails now."
She smiled as she waited for an answer, tapping the other end of her pen against the desk softly.
"I... um... re- regression therapy?" he stuttered.
"Right, okay. That's a good start, mind expanding on that for me?" she spoke sweetly, looking deep into his light brown eyes. She knew most first-time patients had trouble opening up about their needs, luckily she had a calm composure to allow them to think about their words and open up to her.
"Age regression..." he continued, feeling his heart rate increase with every word he spoke. The doctor nodded, encouraging him to continue. "With the... um... fem- feminisation therapy t- too."
"And is that all, love?" she asked after giving him a few seconds. He nodded quickly, his face flushing a bright shade of red. "Thank you, Liam. I'm sure that wasn't easy to open up about, but I'm proud you did."
She scribbled a few notes down on his file, he noticed she was left handed.
"And will this be done over separate visits, or would you like an extended stay?"
"The... extended stay," he answered.
"That's a lot of commitment, Liam. Are you sure? I have to warn you that an extended stay has a much bigger toll on someone's mind than a visit-by-visit plan does."
"No... I'm sure," he replied, a sense of desperation clearly audible in his tone.
"Okay, I just want you to know what you're signing up for," she explained. "And you've read the information on our website, I hope?"
"All of it,"
"Good, what's the word?"
"Pacifier," he recited the so-called
catch word
, a word put in the info page of the website to make sure the patient has read it all.
"Great," she smiled as she ticked a box on the page. "All of your medical information is already on here, I see... no allergies or chronic illnesses or medication, am I right in saying that?"
He nodded in response.
"Are you currently on any medication?"
A shake of the head.
"Great, well I don't see why we don't get started," Dr. Vince said, putting her manicured hands together. "I'm going to leave you two alone for a few minutes. Nurse Ella's just going to be doing some preliminary checks, alright, love?"
Liam had almost forgotten about the small blonde nurse stood a few metres behind him. He instinctively turned to look at her.
"I'll see you in a bit," Dr. Lily said as she exited the room, leaving a trail of deft heel clicks in her wake as she walked down the wooden floors of the hallway.
Nurse Ella closed the door behind her, and turned to the boy. He looked at her properly for the first time. She wore a traditional nurse's outfit. The white dress reached down to an inch or two above her knee, the rest of her leg encased in sheer white stockings. Her feet rested in white high-heeled pumps, creating a lovely white uniform which made it very clear what her position was. The golden nametag on her chest shimmered under the lights of the consultation room. She had a light blue stethoscope hanging around her neck.
Physically, Nurse Pointer was naturally very pretty. She was very short, though helped along a few inches by the white pumps. She had light, creamy skin which looked extremely soft. Her fingernails were painted a shade of light blue, a colour she found had calming effects on her regressed patients. Her blonde hair was loose and hung on her shoulders, her sharp face complimented by it. She had deep blue eyes and a small nose, with thin lips. Her face was devoid of makeup, so her freckles were clear to see.
"Ready?" she asked him sweetly.
He nodded softly.
"Lamb, I'm afraid nodding won't do any more," she said as she approached him, reaching out a hand to pinch his chin softly. "Dr. Lily doesn't appreciate it, and neither do I. It's
Yes, Nurse Ella
or
No, Nurse Ella
... alright?"
Despite the strict nature of her words, her tone was ever motherly and soft. As she let go of his chin, she let him try again.
"Y- yes, Nurse... Ella," he stuttered, stumbling over his words in sheer embarrassment.
"Good," she smiled, and tugged on his arm, motivating him to get out of his chair.
As he stood up before her, she was thankful for her heels. He wasn't the tallest, maybe around 5' 8" at a quick guess, but when you're used to working with female patients, he seemed almost a giant.
Despite her heels though, she still had to look up at him as she guided him to the middle of the room.
"Now, honey, from this point on, you're part of our age regression program," she explained to him as he nervously looked into her blue eyes. "That means, you have no more responsibilities until we give you responsibilities. You're our patient now. And that means you'll have to do everything we say, no questions asked, alright?"
Liam thought it over for a few seconds. The way she phrased it made it sound endlessly frightening. But he knew he had nothing to lose.
"Yes, Nurse Ella," he replied, just as he was taught.
