I'm a six-foot-four man.
I played basketball. Then, stopped when I realized the effort put in versus my body was not worth it.
Now, I work in an office. I'm successful. I make money.
What I am saying is, I am an imposing man. A brave man. A strong man.
And yet, I am hiding under my covers in my bed.
All because of a twenty-three-year-old blonde girl who I dwarf.
I'm frozen in fear. I need to pee but I refuse to peek over the covers in my face. She may be there, staring.
Judging.
Ready to tear me in half over what happened last night. Or, maybe she is waiting for me in the hallway.
I keep replaying the night again and again in my head. She got stood up by her asshole quarterback boyfriend. Then, turns out he is probably cheating on her. So, she went back to her room to masturbate her troubles away.
Fine, everything is fine. She does that almost daily. Looking the way she does, I can't say that bit of knowledge makes life easy some days, but she's a friend. So, I treat her as such.
She went to masturbate. And listen to those silly "hypnosis" files.
Then, a storm hit. I fell asleep after touching myself to a tv star.
This is the part where it gets weird. When I went to wash myself up (in the kitchen sink, what the hell was I thinking) she appeared. And she looked...different.
Okay, okay. She looked like a sex fantasy walking. TIght t-shirt, pigtails.
That squeaky, high-pitched, stupid voice.
She may have been playing dumb, but she was anything but. She turned me on so quickly I...I...
I let my roommate suck my cock until I didn't have a drop left inside of my shaft.
I shudder under the covers. Reliving that bit is only making me harder and harder. If I relive it one more time I'm going to have to jerk off.
She scampered back to bed after that, like nothing happened. Asking if I wanted to come fuck her.
Thankfully, I said no. I have no idea what happened, but I know it wasn't normal.
And so, here I lay, scared.
Scared I took advantage of her.
Scared this is some kind of trick.
Scared she learned of my deepest sexual fantasy.
Yeah, air-headed bimbos happen to be the thing that gets me primal. But, have you ever asked a well-meaning, good woman to be a stupid bimbo in the bedroom? Doesn't go over well.
"Jack?"
No sign of squeakiness, or that sexual lust. Still, that's her voice.
I squeeze my eyes shut. Maybe I can dream this away.
"Jack? You up? I need help."
My cock twitches. I sigh and release the covers. I can't hide from my roommate forever.
It takes me five minutes to get my cock back under control. I hit my head every time my brain starts thinking of her in that t-shirt, looking up at me with those big eyes on her knees...
"No, no, no, fuck this," I say, getting out of bed. I grab a shirt and shorts and head out of the room. Ready to face my doom.
Carmen is sitting at the breakfast island, sipping coffee. She is wearing her onesie, looking comfortable. Peaceful.
She's probably been up all night thinking of what to say.
She smiles. "Wow, you look like shit, bud."
I let out a small chuckle. A nervous one. She's toying with me. Playing with me.
"You okay, Jack?"
I nod.
"You don't look okay. Was it the storm? I must have slept through all of it--" her eyes get foggy for a moment, but she shakes it off, "But, looking outside last night I see it must have been a hell of a storm."
I walk over to the island. She pours me a cup of coffee. I am on edge, waiting for the other shoe to drop.
"Yeah, it was a hell of a storm."
"Huh. Well, I guess I missed it. Uh, but I do need your help with something."
My hands are shaking as I pick up the cup.
"You're sure you're okay."
"Yeah, yeah, just a weird...dream, is all."
"Ah. Well, I had one of those too," Carmen says, and her face grows confused. She shakes that off, as well. She reaches down and pulls out her laptop.
"So, you remember nothing about last night?"
She shakes her head as she opens the laptop. "No, why? Did I snore or something?"
"Uh, not exactly--"
"Look, I have to get moving this morning, but I need your friend, that smart one, to un-fuck my laptop. I think the storm fucked with it."
She swiveled the laptop. It did look frozen, with a lot of popups. But, none of that mattered. My eyes saw through the popups all the way to her browser. What she was watching when the laptop seized.
"Master Tom's bimbo academy?!"
"Shut the fuck up," Carmen said through gritted teeth, "I knew you were going to be like this."
My eyes went wide. "Is this what you were listening to last night when you went back to your room? 'Let Master Tom turn you into the brain-dead, sex-crazed bimbo'--"
Carmen slammed the laptop shut. "Jack."
I turned to Carmen. Saw the wetness in her eyes.
I felt horrible.
"Okay, okay, sorry. I'm just--"
"Look, I need this to be discrete, okay? It's just a--fantasy, that's all. Listen to it, it gets undone by the end, all harmless. And private."
"I'm sorry."
Carmen sighed. "Can I trust you, and this friend of yours, with this?"
"If you mean Daryl, yeah. He doesn't talk to anyone, so there's no one to talk to. That, and he's oddly weird about privacy and being 'honorable'. Yeah, if anyone can un-fuck this laptop and keep a secret, it's him."
"What about you?"
I look down at the counter. "Well, we all have secrets." I look back up to Carmen. "But, you can count on me."
She brightened up and smiled. "I knew I could!"
Without warning, she leaned in and gave me a peck on the cheek. "I knew you were a good guy!"
That kiss felt like a burn on my cheek. I put my hand on it and felt the heat. She scampered off, leaving me with the laptop.
And a deep feeling of messed-up emotions.
***
Work was a bust. I couldn't keep my mind on anything, except swinging back to the excitement of seeing Carmen as a bimbo, and the roommate and friend I know somehow not caring, or remembering what happened.
My head went crazy for the rest of the day. If she remembered. If she didn't, should I tell her. If I did, what would happen.
Was there a way to make her like she was last night.
That thought hurt the worst. I wanted it, but I felt horrible for wanting it.
The whole hypnosis thing confused me as well. No way it worked like that.
This is all to say, when I opened the door to my apartment, I was muttering to myself and not paying attention. I had my eyes on the ground, going over last night.
Slowly, my surroundings revealed themselves. I saw Carmen bouncing around, cleaning with a duster.
"Say my name, say my name," she sang to herself. I chuckled.
"Say my name, say 'Bimbo Freed', yeah, yeah, Say my name, say 'Bimbo Freed', yeah yeah," she continued to sing.
"Cute song."
She turned and stuck out her tongue. "Like you've never made up a silly song in your head."
"I mean, sure, but what, Carmen, Bimbo Freed is something special? It doesn't even..."
