He was in the middle of a session when he heard a knock on the door. He put his patient in a rest state and went downstairs to see who it was.
A young woman stood there awkwardly, staring straight at her feet.
"Hello," he said.
She didn't look up, but just shook her head quickly side to side.
"Can I help you? I'm in the middle of something."
She gulped and handed him a folded note. He looked her over with curiosity. She was young, probably somewhere between 18 and 22. She didn't have graceful beauty, but she was very cute. Her body was completely hidden under loose, frumpy clothes. She didn't seem very confident in her appearance, even though she was really quite pretty. He read the note.
It read: "My name is Rose Porter. You are the best reviewed hypnotist in the area. I need help being less shy. I can barely speak to anybody. I am very lonely. Please help me. I have money."
He looked to her from the note and back again, and thought for a moment.
"Rose," he said decisively, "I will help you. But I am in the middle of a session right now. Come back tomorrow at noon and I will work with you then."
She nodded and ran off. He chuckled a little and went back upstairs to finish his session.
The next day, the doorbell rang just before noon. He was ready for her. He brought her upstairs and had her sit on the couch.
Slowly he took her through his hypnotizing regimen. He made her regulate her breathing, and count backwards, and keep her eye on a single, moving object. His voice was soothing and authoritative. She quickly slipped under his control.
He asked her about herself, and soon she was opening up to him. She was a fascinating person. She was brilliant, and was in an accelerated program at the local university. At only 20 years old, she was well on her way to acquiring her Ph. D. in neuroscience. But her whole life she had suffered from debilitating social anxiety. Speaking to strangers was impossible, and speaking to people she knew was difficult. Public speaking was out of the question. But her dissertation was coming up and she was going to need to give a presentation. Also, she was incredibly lonely. She wanted better relationships with her family. She wanted friends, for once. And she wanted to make love.
They talked in depth during their sessions over a few months. He trained her to feel more calm when people spoke to her. As time went on, she became more comfortable with him even when she wasn't hypnotized. He could see that he was helping her. She told him of her newfound ability to communicate well with her family. She had even made a new friend in her program. She was very grateful to him.
But she still had too much anxiety to approach a man about romance or sexual desire.
He decided to go into that topic in more depth.
"Why do you want to be with a man so badly, Rose?" he asked.
"Touching myself isn't enough," she answered, her blunt honesty a result of how completely she was at his mercy.
"What do you want to do with a man?"
"I want to touch him, and have him touch me. I want him inside me. I want to have an orgasm and make a man orgasm."
"What are you afraid will happen if you ask a man to do this with you?"
"He will say no, and he will tell others that I asked him, and he will make fun of me."
"Have you tried dressing more nicely?"
"No, because then people will look at me."
"Why are you afraid of people looking at you?"
"They might think I'm ugly and laugh at me."
"Do you think you're ugly?"
She sighed. "Yes."
He was shocked. The more time he had spent with her, the more he had realized how much her awkwardness hid her beauty. When she was relaxed, she was devastatingly lovely. But she was never relaxed, except with him.
"What if I told you that you weren't ugly, Rose?" he asked, gently.
She shook her head. "I wouldn't believe you."
"You are going to believe everything I say, okay, Rose?"
She nodded obediently.
"You are beautiful," he said. "You are a sexual being. You are sexually attractive."
She nodded.
"How do you feel, Rose?" he asked, concerned, because she looked a little flushed.
"I feel sexual."
"Good," he murmured. "What do you want to do right now?"
"I want to be naked," she said, her voice thick with arousal.
He thought for a moment. He did want to see her naked. And this was her own idea. He decided to allow it.
"Take off your clothes, Rose."
She undressed quickly, throwing her lumpy clothes to the floor. Naked, she was divine. She was trim but curvaceous, with large, round, perky breasts, a small waist, and wide, sensual hips. He felt a stirring between his legs.
"You look wonderful, Rose. Do you feel beautiful?"
She nodded. "Yes."
"Good," he said with a smile. "What do you want to do now?"
"I want to have sex."
He wasn't prepared for this. His mind started racing. It had been a while since he had had sex. He was a very attractive man, but was married to his job, and spent too much time on his patients to have the energy to devote to a relationship. But he had been thinking about Rose since he first met her. Her sweet face, her quiet voice, her milky skin, and now he knew that her body was exactly what he desired. She had been talking to him about wanting to lose her virginity for a long time. But he knew she would not be ready quite yet, out in the real world. He would need to work on her for a while. And even then, she'd have to find the right guy. He knew she didn't want to wait that long. His cock was thick and hard and throbbing while he stared at her naked body before him.
He decided to ask her a few more questions.
"Who do you want to have sex with?" he asked, his heart beating quickly, anticipating her answer.
"You," she said matter-of-factly.
His stomach dropped. She wanted him. He needed to be absolutely sure.
"You want me to take your virginity?"
"Yes," she said, and he could see her breasts heaving, her nipples hard with desire.
This was more than he could bear. Suddenly, to his despair, he realized that he didn't have a condom. He would have to go out and buy one. He sighed with frustration.
"Would you like me to go buy a condom?" he asked her, getting up from the chair.
"No," she said, shaking her head, surprising him.
He looked at her, incredulous. "Why not?"
