When most couples thought of a romantic evening, they probably envisioned dinner and a movie, leading to a romp between the sheets. They weren't most couples, though.
They met a few months ago on a forum devoted to erotic hypnosis. He was an experienced hypnotist. She had recently admitted to herself she always had a kink for hypnosis, and was now beginning to explore it more deeply.
For the pair, tonight wouldn't be the standard romantic evening most couples experienced. They planned something much more in line with their tastes. Instead of a steak dinner and wine, they had a light snack with water.
They sat across from each other on her couch. She wore a dark negligee, silky and lacy. He hoped she wasn't wearing underwear, but he knew he would find out later. The thought of her underwear (or lack thereof) was distracting him. He needed to focus on the task at hand.
"So, let's recap," he said. "You want me to hypnotize you to become progressively sillier, hornier, and suggestible. And you want this progression to be triggered by orgasms, which grow in intensity?"
She nodded vigorously. The smile on her face that had started when he began talking grew wider and wider. "Exactly," she replied. "It's a mashup of my two favorite erotic mind control stories." He nodded, mirroring her smile. When they talked about this scene a week ago, he went home and read the stories in question. Individually, they were hot. The idea of a mashup... well, it was even more distracting than the underwear question. Focus, he reminded himself. Focus. She's counting on you for this.
He closed his eyes for a moment, willing himself to adopt his professional persona, the one in which he was calm, collected, assured. He opened them a moment later, finding himself looking into her large brown eyes. "Just collecting my thoughts," he explained. "Your idea..." he paused. "It's really..." She cocked her head, looking concerned. "It's hot," he finally managed. "I have to be able to concentrate to be able to do this, but it's getting me turned on, too."
The huge grin was back on her face. He grinned, too. This is why he liked her so much - they thought in the same ways, were turned on by the same things. He took another deep breath, willing himself to calm down.
"Okay, are you ready to go into trance?" he asked. Her dark eyes widened. "Yes," she almost squealed in excitement. "Very much so." The grin on her face grew even wider.
"Great," he grinned back. "Now, get comfortable on the couch." She had been facing him, sitting with her legs folded. When he asked her to get comfortable, leaned back into the couch. Her shoulders immediately loosened. The months of being a hypnotic subject left her primed for this. "You relaxed quickly, that's very good," he said encouragingly. She grinned again and sank more deeply into the couch.
He took another deep breath. The combination of nerves and excitement was getting to him. He wasn't normally like this when he was hypnotizing a subject, but she wasn't just any subject. He wanted to make this special for her.
"Now that you're sitting comfortably, I'm going to take out my trusty necklace here." It was corny and perpetuated every single hypnosis stereotype in existence, but she loved it. In fact, the fact that it reinforced so many stereotypes is why she loved it. That's why he brought the chain with him every time they met.
He stood up from the couch, positioning himself so that she had to look up to see him. He pulled the leather chain with the amethyst amulet dangling from it from his pocket, taking a moment to adjust his rapidly-tightening pants. Her eyes lit up upon seeing the necklace.
"Watch the necklace." He pitched his voice lower, purposely making his voice soothing and inviting. He held the leather necklace far enough above her head so she had to look straight up at it. "Watch the beautiful purple stone. It's got so many facets." He began gently swaying the necklace, watching her eyes as they followed the pendant.
"The light catches the facets," he continued. "Whenever the light catches a facet, it creates a pattern." Her eyelids were already beginning to droop, and it hadn't even been a full minute yet. Even better, he thought. "Looking at the pendant is really relaxing," he said as it swayed. "As you watch it, your body feels more and more relaxed." Her eyes closed for a moment. With great effort, she opened them again.
