Batting her delicate eyelids, Lily Nagashino came back to the world of the living. Her eyes focused, reality set in, and she immediately remembered her dream. And what a great dream it was! She quickly and stealthily patted her crotch to see if any wetness seeped through. Nope. She was in the clear. She saw Emily across the room, nose deep in her book.
"What time is it?" Lily asked Emily.
"Quarter 'til," Emily said without turning around. Lily sat up on the couch, making her book fall off of her chest and onto the floor. She shook her head groggily.
"Quarter 'til what?"
"Quarter 'til Nine."
Lily stood up. She had slept for about an hour while attempting to study. Freud looked up at her disapprovingly from his spot on the back cover of the book.
"Shut up," she told him, picking her book off of the floor.
"What?" Emily asked, still reading.
"Nothing." Lily threw her book on the couch, reserving her study spot for later. She was pretty hungry for some snacks, so she left the dorm's study room, went to her room and stole some of her roommate's lychees. She topped it off by consuming some graham crackers, and then decided to go back to the study room and try and stay awake this time.
On her way back, Matthew poked his head out of his room into the hallway. He called to her, "Hey, Lily."
Lily turned around. "Hey, Matt, what's up?" She hadn't talked to Matthew much, but she hung out with his roommate pretty often.
"Nothing much." She walked to his room.
"Is Kurt here?"
"Naw, he went out to eat, but he'll probably be back soon."
"What are you doing tonight?"
"You know, studying and stuff." He had spent the last hour downloading porn on his computer.
"Yeah, me too." She walked into the room, looking around. "Freud sucks so much."
"I don't know, I think he's just misunderstood," he reasoned.
"Don't you think the whole id, ego, superego thing seems... too easy of a construct?"
"Well, he's not trying to define the only way to look at a mind. It's a paradigm useful for psychology. Or it was supposed to be."
"Okay," she relented, "but the part about children's sexual stages..."
"You mean... you women don't all have penis envy?" She laughed disapprovingly.
"You're horrible."
"I'm not so bad." She looked at him. He leaned against his bed in the tiny room, avoiding her eyes. She wondered if he liked her.
He looked at her. She was a beautiful woman. It was curious how American she sounded and acted; yet she looked so exotic with her Asian eyes and amber skin. She even had chopsticks in her hair with red Chinese lettering running down it. Wait, she wasn't Chinese.
"Hey let me show you something," he said.
"What?"
"Okay, first close your eyes and put your hands behind your back." She looked at him in disbelief. "C'mon."
"I don't know if I trust you," she told him, following his commands, but half-squinting out of one eye.
"No, this is cool." She closed her eyes, knowing that he was definitely into her. But she wasn't that into him. He was very strange. He walked behind her and she felt her hands tighten together as he tightened a black plastic cable tie around her wrists.
"Hey, what are you doing?" She opened her eyes.
"Okay, you can go now," he informed her, smiling. Lily sighed.
"Okay, get this off, psycho."
"You can't get free?" She struggled a little to no avail.
"No, this hurts. Take it off, Matt."
"Alright," he spoke, walking away from her. "You don't like being tied up? Cause you seemed like you might." He leaned against the door and he jumped as it closed suddenly.
"No- Well- What's that supposed to mean?" she said, aghast at his behavior.
"Nothing. So you don't like being tied up?" he repeated.
She laughed and rolled her eyes. "With the right person..."
"Ah," he nodded. He was getting aroused looking at her, bonded and in need of his help.
She felt he was getting the wrong idea. "Take this off, Matt. Seriously."
"Okay," he said. He locked the door.
Matthew moseyed over to Lily. He placed his hands on her bound wrists, then slid them onto her body.
"What are you doing?" Lily questioned, her voice now wavering. Holding Lily around her haunches, Matthew leaned in behind Lily to smell her womanly scent, keeping his waist a few inches behind hers so she wouldn't feel his erection. "Matt, you're scaring me."
"Sometimes I scare myself," he confessed, his chin hovering over her shoulder. He then licked her neck, jamming his graceful fingers into her cargo pants and pulling them down to her calves in one swift movement.
"Jerk!" Lily shrieked at her moistened neck, only noticing a second later that her pants were around her ankles. Her eyes widened in horror and she screamed, "Get away from me!"
Matthew said nothing, only smiling lasciviously, eyeing his prize. Lily had been wearing a pink thong under her pants and it emphasized the roundness of her asscheeks. To make matters worse- or better, in Matthew's eyes- she was bending over in an attempt to pull her pants up from behind. Lily heard him sigh lustfully as he hooked his fingers into her thong's elastic and pulled her last protective garment away from her privates.
