Recap: Janine is on her way to be an honour student! Professor Dawson gave her the command to excel in her exams in their private session as a bonus, and she'll be sticking to it. Of course the Professor put his own twist on it, and Janine still has no idea the depths that the Professor has gone within her psyche and body. He also left many new commands with the poor girl for his future gain and her future degradation (Ch 10).

The weekend passed uneventfully for Janine Tyler. She desperately needed a break after a week of over-stimulation and craziness, so she opted for house chores and self-study. She may have been a quiet and unassuming student before this week, but she would never have chosen textbooks over a good paperback novel on a weekend. But since the command Professor Dawson gave her in his office, she instinctively knew what she needed to do to ace her exams - she simply had to study.
She had itched to test if Natasha could still give her commands. The Professor had bet that Natasha would have no more control over Janine, but she had not had any opportunity to test it out. A part of her was worried that it would not work, or worse yet, would have an alternate, even more devastating outcome, but the Professor's command had been very clear and concise with no room for her subconscious mind to interpret otherwise.
Monday rolled around and Janine enjoyed the freedom of choice when it came to choosing her clothes. She tugged on her favourite pair of jeans and stood topless in front of her mirror. She never considered herself to be sexy, but she had to admit that she had curves that she had not given a hoot about before. They were simply well hidden before this week, and tighter clothes and short skirts had exposed them to a wider appreciative audience.
She picked out a pink cotton t-shirt and reached for a pink bra to go with it. She put it on expertly and found it strange that the bra made her uncomfortable. She had worn this bra just the week before but something made it feel simply
not right
. She tried on another bra and had the same sense of discomfort and unease. She took it off and it was like her body breathed a sigh of relief. She tried all her bras but felt better without her bra. She recalled that she had fought a similar battle on Friday, but had sucked it up and just suffered through the whole day with her white bra. She had gone braless over the weekend during her self-imposed exile and had loved the liberation. Chewing her lip in thought, she decided that she would wing it today as well. She felt sure that no one would notice her freedom under her top since it was opaque.
Slipping the pink sleeveless top on and checking herself in the mirror once more, she grabbed her book bag and left for her morning classes.
She felt a lot more attentive than usual during her lessons and less distracted by the general gossip as the day went on. She could get used to this! Her note taking felt more focused and had fewer doodles in the margins. Breezing through the day without a care in the world felt good, and put her in a good mood.
Her next class was a Psychology 101 lecture in LT27. She bumped into Drew at the door as he held it open for her and a couple of other students. As she walked in, she felt an unusual blast of cold air. "Come on in," Professor Dawson tapped his watch. "I know it is cold in here, and I've already contacted maintenance to have it checked out. I expect your full attention regardless. I have the results of your pop quiz from last week."
Janine moved towards a second row seat, with Drew closely behind. He took in her T-shirt and jeans and recalled her outfit choices from the week before. Prior to seeing her in the light blue cotton skirt the week before, he would never have noticed Janine's legs. He certainly noticed them now as they led the way to their seats. The way they swayed provocatively on her low heels seemed almost hypnotic and he caught himself mentally swapping her jeans out for the skirt again. It would be pretty cold to wear a skirt in this lecture theatre though.
He glanced around and saw some of the other girls in class tittering as they rubbed as much warmth into their exposed arms and legs as they could. It was hot and balmy outside and everyone had taken advantage of the good weather. Janine would not be so affected with her casual jeans, he thought.
"Good luck. I think I'm going to flunk this one." Drew leaned in to whisper in her ear as they sat down together.
