Mike was certainly not clairvoyant, however, he didn't need to be. He knew that if he did not ace this paper, like really blow his lecturer's mind with its sheer intellectual brilliance and academic insight, then he would not pass this course and as a consequence, not earn his degree this semester as he had hoped.
Sitting at his desk in his room, laptop open in front of him flanked by piles of textbooks, Mike stared blankly at the flashing cursor silently taunting him. Desperate for the allusive inspiration that would come and save three years of work from going down the drain, Mike's mind was as close to an absolute vacuum as was humanly possible.
Mike heard a tapping sound coming from the hallway outside his room. He chose to ignore it, hoping that it would go away. After ten more seconds of staring at that damned flashing cursor, the tapping sound recurred, only louder this time.
"Go away, I'm busy!" he yelled.
If you were expecting the person on the other side of the door to heed Mike's request for privacy, you would be sadly mistaken. As the handle turned and the door began to open, Mike let out a frustrated sigh.
"What ya doin'?" Tina asked.
"I'm just trying to get this final paper written." Mike replied despondently.
Tina was twenty four, two years older than Mike. She'd already completed her bachelors degree and was seriously considering doing her masters. She wore a long tβshirt/pyjama/nightdress thingy. It was pink with a frowning anthropomorphised kitten's face emblazoned across her breasts accompanied by the slogan 'Grumpy Pussy'. Tina's erect nipples were clearly noticeable through the fabric.
"I thought that perhaps you would like a break." Tina said as she moved over closer to Mike.
"Thanks, but I really need to get this paper finished." Mike replied politely.
Tina moved in behind Mike and placed both of her hands onto his shoulders and began to gently squeeze.
"Ohhh." Mike said.
"Perhaps you need a distraction. You know, let your brain think about something else for a while." Tina explained as she continued her gentle massage.
"Mmmm, like what?" Mike asked taking the bate.
"You know, it's been a few weeks since I got my new IUD inserted." Tina said offhandedly as she started to squeeze Mike's shoulders a little harder.
"That's it, right there." Mike replied not seeming to register what Tina had just said.
