Nina was a beautiful nineteen year old who worked at the clinic as a labtech. She was of middle eastern descent with an almond complexion, large brown doe eyes, naturally long eyelashes, and thick black hair. She had a slight plumpness to her, which only helped emphasize her heart shaped face. Even though she wore loose hospital scrubs, you could still make out her shapely hips below her much thinner waist. Her large breasts strained against the confines of her top.
She had a sweet, girl-next-door, innocence about her. Usually, she would be extremely outgoing and cheerful, with no evidence of being self-conscious. However, if anyone flirted with Nina, she would flush red, not meet their gaze and be at a total loss for words.
I flirted with her for several weeks, enjoying her frequent blushes. I honestly didn't think anything would come of it.
I was thirteen years older than her and going bald. Although I'm 6'2" and I've kept myself in good shape, I've never been very muscular in my upper body. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not altogether ugly. People have told me that I look very much like Dr. Green from ER. It's just that I was so much older than her and she was beautiful enough (in looks and personality) to get any guy she wanted.
Still, over the weeks, I thought that she may have started to become interested in me. I discounted those thoughts and simply flirted with her for the fun of it, not expecting anything.
One night, Nina shyly asked if I wanted to go out for a cup of coffee after work. I smiled, genuinely surprised. Maybe she was interested in me?
Nah
, I thought,
she is just being friendly. People go out after work all the time together
.
We went to a late night restaurant. I drove, leaving her car back at work. Toying with a dessert while sipping coffee, we talked about random things. More and more I got the feeling that she might have had a crush on me. Her body language clearly showed that she was interested in me. We started talking about future plans, and I mentioned how I wanted to get certified in hypnosis. I told her about how a stage hypnotist friend, had taught me about hypnosis a year ago and that it had really intrigued me.
"What's it like to be hypnotized? Could you hypnotize me?" she asked fascinated.
My mind leapt at the idea. The concept of hypnotizing such a beautiful young thing excited me to no end. Fantasies raced through my mind of hypnotically seducing her. I quickly forced those thoughts down. I realized that they were just fantasies. You can't force someone into doing something they didn't want to do. I had managed to live out some fantasies with my last two girlfriends, but I thought that they were just indulging me. Hypnosis isn't really mind control. I've heard and read hundreds of times about how you can't hypnotize someone into doing something they don't want to do.
Still
, I thought,
let's see how far I can take this. If I suggest something she doesn't want to do, she won't do it and I could just blow it off as "can't blame me for trying"
.
"Well, let's find out," I responded. "Let's see how susceptible you are. Try to roll your eyes up into the back of your head. Supposedly, some studies have found that the more white that shows, the deeper the person can go under".
"Okay," she said, opening her eyes a little wider for a second. She leaned forward a little over the table. Then, her eyelids fluttered, half closing as she rolled her beautiful eyes back, totally hiding the irises. All you could see were the whites of her eyes. I couldn't believe my luck! Here was a beautiful young creature who was interested in me and was possibly ulta-susceptible to hypnosis.
"Wow," I declared, "a total white-out. I bet you are a somnabulist." I quickly described several of the things that deeply susceptible individuals might be able to accomplish with hypnosis. "We could try it if you want".
"Here?" she asked hesitantly.
"No, no..." I replied, quickly thinking about where the best place would be. Nina still lived at home with her mother, and my roommate Paul was home tonight with his bible study group. Well, I thought, if I'm going to try and see how far I can push the hypnosis, I might as well get started. "Well, we could go out to my mini-van" I suggested hesitantly.
Surprisingly, she agreed and I paid the bill. We got up and went to the van. Part of me read her quick agreement of the van as an indication of her level of interest in me.
Surely
, I thought,
after all the flirting I've done with her over the past several weeks, she should know that getting in the back of my van with me was just a prelude to a makeout session
.
My van was an homage to the 1970's. Sporting shag carpeting, a loveseat in the back, and great sound system... it was glaringly set up for make-out sessions. Yes, there was even a bumper sticker about not knocking.
We sat in the loveseat, with my hand resting lightly on her back. The lights from the fairly empty parking lot gave the van a dusky light. Nina became extremely shy. She sat on the seat with her hands nervously in her lap.
Up till now, her body language had been screaming that she was interested in me. I took her increased shyness to mean that she was indeed thinking about being in a van alone with me and thinking some embarrasingly dirty thoughts. I smiled wolfishly to myself. I tried for a kiss.
My attempt obviously surprised her. She gave a little gasp and backed away. I could see her turning scarlet in the dim light. Still, she didn't complain about the attempt.
"Ummm..." she mumbled, trying to find something to say.
I gave her a wicked grin...
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself," I said, not looking the least bit sorry. She blushed harder. "So," I said, "do you still want me to try and hypnotise you?"
She giggled nervously for a second, then replied,
"Okay."
"All right, lay back, make yourself comfortable." Nina settled herself in her seat and placed her arms on her legs. She still looked nervous and tense. "Nina, I want you to focus on the clock on the dashboard. Stare at it." I watched her as she locked her gaze.
I started a slow progresssive relaxation. "Imagine a wave of pouring down through you. This wave is like warm honey. It's sweet and thick and golden. It pours into your head and down through your body. As it travels through you... warming you, it relaxes you."
"Each time this wonderful wave of fluid washes over and through you, you will relax deeper and deeper. Imagine and concentrate on how it would feel to have this fluid flow through you."
