Working at an Optometrist's shop is a real blessing for me. There really isn't anything better. Since we're in-between the offices downtown and the college campuses, we get the whole spectrum of beautiful women here, from sporty college chicks to serious businesswomen.'Course I can't do anything without getting fired, but hey, at least I can look.
At least that's what they think. A buddy of mine, over at the neuroscience department, came up with a neat little toy that acts as the receiver to a remote control. Yes, for people, with the proper conditioning,. It's a little laser emitter, like a miniature version of the things you see at light-shows. It's so small it can be installed in the hinges of most frames of glasses. My friend hooked me up with two pairs, which I've tucked at the very top of two of the women's racks. No one looks there, ever, unless I point it out to them, but we still keep frames up there.
Now, I have two pairs so me and my buddy each get one. It's only fair, after all. Now, while I have someone picked out , my friend wants me to snare this chick at the college, Julie. I'd swear on a stack of the holy book of your choice she's imported directly from Ireland, but apparently she just grew up in a very, very Irish household. Her appointment's in a half-hour, and since we've had a half-dozen cancellations on account of the weather, I've got nothing to do, 'cept program the tests with the conditioning program. The universe hates me.
Now, you may be wondering how I program the machines, when they're all mechanical. Well, the doc has some pretty tight connections, so he's got computerized equipment, which is a lot smaller, we've got the whole thing on a cart, so we can take it into whatever room the patient is in. Anyway, my friend figured out how to write the subliminals into the regular test program.
Well, I heard the bell ring, but I don't see anyone. It's about time for Julie to be here too.
"Hello?"
"Hi, I'm Julie."
Whoa! Now I know why my friend is so interested in her! She's like, 5' even! I mean, I knew she was a red-head from the photo, but, wow. Anyway,
"Hey, I'm Jack, I'll be your tech today. Since it's such a nice day, there's no wait, so let's get started so you can get out of here and enjoy the weather. Just head over to room 2 and I'll go get the machine."
She heads off to the room, and I go get the machine. I unplug it and bring it into room 2. She's surprised, of course.
"Where's the rest of it? It's so small!"
"This is it. This is brand-new stuff, too. The doc knows the developer, or something. This cart does everything." Well, it does now.
"Oh, that's neat."
"Ok, let's get started."
We run through the long, boring testing process, the doc takes her into his main exam room, and they walk into.
"Ms. Raynor needs to pick out a set of frames, would you get her squared away so we can make her lenses?"
"I'm on it. So, Julie, what kind of glasses are you looking for?"
"I'm not sure, I didn't think I needed glasses. I mean, I've never been able to see that clearly, like with that machine, but I thought that was normal."
"That's alright," I pulled a tortoise pair from 3/4's the way up, "How about these?"
"Blea! No way! Those look awful." She sticks her tongue out the side of her mouth. My friend has brilliant taste. She's so cute. She's also confirming the conditioning, too.
"Ok then, how about these? They're a bit smaller, just gold wire-frames."
She 'thinks', "Maybe, let me try them on." She puts the gold frames on, and right away takes them off. "Nah, can I try some more pairs?"
I reach up, under the light, and grab one of my pairs. "Here, try these."
She puts them on, "Ooh, I like these." Glancing in the mirror, she says, "I like these pewter frames."
"Well, they look good on you. You sure about these?"
"Yeah. Hey! Can I get that color-changing thing on my lenses?"
Uh.... "Yeah, sure, why not?" It can't hurt. At least I hope not. "Just give me about a half-hour and we'll get you on your way."
Well, a half hour later, and she's all paid up with her new glasses and on her way. Now's as good a time as any to call my friend, and give the good news.
"Hiya Jack, what's up?"
"I just had your friend here."
There's a brief pause at the other end. "And?!"
"It was a horrible, miserable failure."
"What?!"
"Kidding, it worked perfectly." Sometimes, I just can't help but be an ass.
There's a huge sigh coming over the phone. "Awesome. This is gonna be so cool! You got your girl yet?"
"Not yet, no."
"Hmph. Anyway, I want you to help me test out the equipment, in case I need a hand if something goes wrong."
"Cool, we always close the store at around five, so I'll be up at the college by half-past."
The grin at the other end made it all the way through the phone unadulterated."This is gonna be fun!"
I wandered around the college for a bit. It took a bit of work to find my friend Kim, seeing as how she's only 5'2'', but hey, the little Asian had to be somewhere.
"You're late! You know how hard it's been to wait for you?!" The hiss came out of nowhere, and I almost screamed. I'm a wuss, I admit it.
"Don't sneak up on me like that! I've been looking for you for ten minutes! Well, anyway, let's go find Julie."
"Yeah, shouldn't be hard." She glares at me, "not like finding you." I start to sputter a protest, but she pulls a DS from her jacket pocket. "Let's go find her."
"We're not gonna find her while you play Ad-"
"Shut up and look at this," She says, shoving the DS in my arm. On the upper screen is a grid with a beeping dot moving around in the upper right, and on the lower screen is an image of one of those artist mannequins with strings going up offscreen, kinda like a marionette.
"I thought we were gonna find Julie? Games are cool, but..."
"This is the remote, genius! It uses the local wi-fi connection of the DS, but it's all on the game card." she said with an incredibly cute evil grin. As we weaved out way through the campus, the dot kept getting closer. "Look! There she is!" The little beauty was making her way towards her dorm.
"Now what?" I was a bit nervous about sneaking around in a dorm, after all, someone was bound to notice us...
"Now," again with the evil grin, "We go to the park." She tilts the DS so I can see it, and maneuvers her way through a few menus, then writes 'park' on a template. Looking up at Jill, we can see her stop and turn around and head for the park.
"Oh wow. Total ownage."
She tossed me a sidelong glance, as if saying "What'd you expect?" Anyway, we followed her to the park
"You know, we should do something, watching her walk is kinda boring."
Kim just looked at me and grinned again. She started fiddling with the DS and glanced up. I looked at Julie. The new sway made her walk was much more interesting, but still...
"That's not what I meant."
"Well, show some patience I- eek! Cut that out!" She shoved my hand away from her side. "Don't do that. You know I'm really ticklish."
"I've waited forever, I think. Let's see what this can do!"
A worried look crossed her face. "I'm still not sure it can do anything. I mean, what if everything was an accident? I mean, what if it doesn't work, and she finds out? I mean, what if she reports us? I -"
"Just try something simple, but obvious, eh? Like... make her wave."
"At what?"
"Pick something, or nothing, doesn't matter. Just have her do it for a few seconds, so we can get a bead on whether or not it works."
Kim was still fidgety, "Um... ok, here goes.... OHMIGOSH! Look! It works!"
Julie vigorously waved at a small protest on campus, stopped, held out her arm and stared at it.
Kim wasn't moving either. "Wow... So awesome..."
"So now what? We can do stuff, right?"
And I thought she had an evil grin before. "Oh hell yeah. Just watch her, and play guide-dog." That last bit was said as she looped her arm around mine. Julie was already headed back to the park, she looked a little weirded out, so we had to hurry a little to catch up.
Suddenly, Julie stopped and started jogging in place. She looked around in a panic, but came to a stop. She took a few wavering steps forward, then turned around and tried to head back to the halls. Two steps forward and she suddenly struck a sexy pose. I could see her struggling to move forward, but eventually she turned around and headed to the park. She stopped, and looked like she was gonna try to get some guy's attention when she started giggling. At this point, a couple people noticed her, so Kim waited a little while as Julie strutted to the park.
The three of us got to the park, and Kim let Julie wander around the park for a little while. It was a big place, and there were some woods nearby too, so it was a nice place. Well, after a bit, Kim started fiddling with the DS again and Julie started walking towards the woods. We picked up our pace and almost got up to her when Kim nudged me forward. I glanced back at her, and she shooed me forward. Julie was sitting on a tree stump when she saw me.
"Jack! What's going on? I can't control myself!" She seemed on the verge of tears, and my conscience broke. I turned around and walked back to Kim.
"I can't do this."
She just rolled her eyes and walked over to the clearing. "Hi Julie, it's me."
"Oh hey Kim. Wait, you finally got the thing working? That's what's going on? Awesome!"
"Hehe, yeah. Jack helped me get you started-"
"THAT's why you sent me to that place!"
"Right, but Jack got it set up, so I figured we should show him how it works."
"So why'd you stop? What happened?"
"Jack got a conscience and wussed out."
I stepped forward, "Now hang on. I didn't 'wuss out'. It's just... It's different in fantasy. Nobody's real there, so there's no real moral issues."
Kim stared, "Hunh. Well, you know it's ok now, right?"
I nodded. "Yeah, yeah, OK. Let's get started."
Julie perked up, "Yeah! But can you guys make me forget what happened? It's less fun this way, so far it was HOT."
Kim nodded, but I spoke up, "Yeah, but no tears, ok?" Kim fiddled some more and ducked out.
"Jack, what's going on?" Julie was still a little panicked, but wasn't flipping out anymore.
"Well, uh...", I tried to think of an explanation when she stood up and kissed me.
"I can't stop myself. It's like I'm possessed, I -eep!" One of her hands had reached around her and pinched her butt. She leapt away, right into me. Not knowing what else to do, I caught her. She blushed as she ground against me. Kim was really working it all right, Julie didn't seem to even be that aware of what she was doing, let alone to me.
She looked down, "Oh my gosh! Don't just stand there, he-elp!" She stepped back suddenly and caught herself by surprise. She suddenly get a lustful look and spoke, every word dripping with sex, "Follow me back to my dorm." Then it was gone, and she stammered, "I- I- didn't mean too... Follow me anyway and don't let me get in trouble, please?"
I nodded. "Ok."
We started heading back when Kim came up behind me. "She won't see me or anything, so don't say anything."
I walked alongside Julie and Kim was behind us when Julie started limping. I looked at her,
"What happened, are you ok?"
"I can't move my leg. This sucks."
"We'll figure it out." Sticking my hand being my back, I made a little walking motion with my fingers, and then bent one finger in. Kim seemed to get the idea, because the leg closest to me shot up and she grabbed me.
"Oooh..." The moan, I think, had a hint of pleasure in it, "Now it's stuck up." She kept moving forward, hopping instead. "And I can't stop going!" She landed a hop and gasped.
"What?"
"Nothing." Another hop, "Oh." Another. "Mmm"
With my support we eventually made it to her dorm, only getting a small number of stares.
