Dr. Gordon Banks tidied his desk, but couldn’t
do the same with his mind which remained as messy as a circus ground
after opening night. He glared at his incoming mail tray. In it his
divorce papers sat alone and benign, their damage done. A riot of
butterflies flew blindly into the walls of his chest, unable to
escape, and a clammy anxiety wept out of his palms and from under
his armpits. He had ceased to function efficiently. Sessions with
patients had become burdensome and joyless. His divorce negotiations
were left almost entirely in his lawyer’s hands except when, against
his advice, Gordon traded their million dollar city home for their
forty thousand dollar rustic cabin in the woods. And that’s where he
was headed. His patient load had been handed over to his partner,
his car was almost packed and in the morning, he’d be on his way . .
. and not a minute too soon!
A sudden harsh buzz startled him. Why was his receptionist calling?
She knew he was anxious to get out of here. He held his breath
hopefully, but the irritating sound continued. He picked up.
“What is it, Karen?”
“Sorry, Dr. Banks, but they’re calling from Judge Farley’s chambers.
He’s still sitting and needs you to do an assessment right away.”
Gordon had been assisting the court with psychological profiles and
referrals for twenty years and knew that Tom Farley wouldn’t have
called him unless the situation was critical. Something about this
case had to be bothering the judge . . . a lot!
“Alright, give me the details.”
“A thirty 30 year old woman accused of stealing for the third time.
Pled innocent and he wanted to believe her, but the evidence against
her was overwhelming. He had to convict, but isn’t comfortable with
his decision. Feels like he’s missing something and she’ll begin
serving some serious jail time unless he can get an assessment right
away.”
“Tell them to send her over, but he’ll have to release her on her
own recognizance. If it’s kleptomania we’re dealing with, she’s no
physical danger to herself or society and paranoia about losing her
freedom will only get in our way.”
“Thanks. I’ll tell him.”
Gordon sighed and opened his drawer. He pulled out a pad, placed it
gingerly on his desk, and patted the pen in his pocket. “Just
focus!” This won’t take long: an assessment, a referral, and a quick
call to the Judge when he was done. He could do this one more thing.
He breathed in deeply and expelled the air slowly. He imagined
sitting on the deck of his cabin watching a glorious blaze of sunset
slip toward the horizon. The reds, pinks and oranges of the sky were
brilliant and the darkening blues of the lake, healing. He imagined
taking a walk along the shore. Molly, his ex-wife, was walking
toward him, blond hair aloft on a breeze, smiling that smile, the
one that had charmed him for so long. But before she reached him,
her image began to dissolve and disappear like the ghost of someone
long dead, someone he couldn’t quite recall. His insides began to
contract with loss, disturbing a minefield of ugly memories and
unresolved angers . . .
It was the day before his surprise forty-fifth birthday party for
Molly and he’d stayed home to attend to a few last minute details.
When Molly returned home from the gym, she walked into his study and
stood in front of his desk.
This marriage has been dead for years . . .
I don’t love you . . .
There’s somebody else . . .
I want a divorce . . .
She talked for half an hour and Gordon listened helplessly, waiting
for it all to fall together and make sense. But it didn’t. In his
world, his twenty year marriage was fine. Maybe some of the
excitement had gone out of it, but wasn’t that to be expected?
Hadn’t a deeper love taken hold? No? And who was this someone else?
“You don’t know him and he’s not the point. I’m not leaving you for
him. I just want out of this.”
This! She couldn’t even say the word, ‘marriage’. To her it was a
cancer in its most advanced stage and her one goal was to destroy it
before it destroyed her. Her once attractive face was grotesque with
rage and bitterness. Gordon didn’t even recognize her. He asked a
few questions, but reeled in stunned silence when her terse
responses slapped him in his face.
After she was done, he packed a few things and drove up to the cabin
alone. When he got there, he poured himself a drink and, without
taking so much as one sip, cried into his hands, copious tears that
seeped through his trembling fingers until there was a huge wet spot
on the kitchen table. His tears formed a devil’s pond which drowned
the woman he’d married and spawned an unfeeling, virulent creature
that he wanted no part of. Before the day was done, he’d called an
attorney and instructed him to file for divorce.
That night, he drank until his eyes and heart grew so heavy that
they both closed. And he hadn’t seen or felt anything clearly since
. . .
That was four months ago. The divorce was now final and so seemed
Gordon’s lack of feeling. He realized that he was in crisis and that
he’d have to deal with his neurosis before he’d feel whole again.
And that’s why he had to get away . . . to heal.
The intercom startled him again. How long had he been sitting there?
He glanced at his watch. More than an hour had passed. He’d been
doing that lately, losing time and place. Only last week, he’d
driven past his hotel and was well on his way to the cabin before he
realized what he was doing.
“Doctor Banks, your patient is here.”
“Bring her in.”
Gordon got up from his desk, moved to the door and stood aside as it
swung open. Karen handed him a file.
“Samantha Symonds, this is Dr. Banks,” Karen said.
“Come in,” the doctor said.
Samantha Symonds seemed younger than her thirty years. Her round
face and body reminded him of a fruit, a mango perhaps, not
perfectly shaped but fleshy and generous. She wore an ill-fitting
white suit whose jacket, Gordon was happy to see, was too tight to
button. Her gargantuan breasts and erect pointy nipples, loomed
almost obscenely out of her scoop necked peach blouse and he
couldn’t tear his eyes away from them. He couldn’t believe them. He
wanted to reach out and touch them! “Down boy”, he chided himself.
“You’re a professional. Act like one!”
“Please sit,” he finally managed. His forced officiousness made him
feel ridiculous and he followed it up with a too broad and stilted
gesture in the direction of the couch and chairs.
Samantha wore white high heeled pumps and took too short and
unsteady steps, as though her skirt were too tight and she wasn’t
used to her tottering shoes. But those details barely registered.
Gordon had been mesmerized by her swaying mounds of breasts and when
she turned toward him, he became hypnotized by her eyes. He couldn’t
tell their color. They seemed to mutate from grey to almost green,
almost green to blue and blue to violet. They held him in their
depths, washing away years of bad experience and leaving him feeling
exposed and innocent under their gaze. He couldn’t remember when
he’d felt so drawn to a woman and it frightened him because it was
as sure and sudden as it was inappropriate.
Samantha chose the couch, squeezing herself into one corner as if
determined to take up as little room as possible. Gordon sat in a
chair facing her. He placed his pad on the end table beside him.
“Please, excuse me,” he said, opening her file.
It was all there: Charged and found guilty three times. She’d gotten
off with a fine and probation up to now, but this time was
different. She fell under her state’s ‘three times and you’re out’
policy. Plus, she was still on probation. Court ordered psychiatric
treatment was the only answer to keeping this young lady out of jail
and it was his job to discover if it was indicated.
He placed her file back on the table and looked up at her. Again
those eyes looked into his and he could feel his eyes glazing over.
He tried to look away and couldn’t. He felt light-headed and
detached, dizzy and bewitched by her eyes and breasts. Was this the
one case too many? Was what he was experiencing the prologue to a
full fledged nervous collapse? He had to do something! He grabbed
his pad and crossed his legs, trying awkwardly to assume a
professional stance. “Get to work!” he ordered himself.
“I see this is the third time you’ve found yourself in this
predicament. Tell me about it.”
“I don’t steal,” she said. “People give me things that I don’t even
ask for. Most of the time, I just leave stuff on a counter
somewhere, so as not to get in trouble. But sometimes I take it
because the person’s watching and I don’t want to hurt anybody’s
feelings.”
Gordon noted that while her demeanor, choice of words, body language
and delivery, seemed juvenile, her eyes reflected worlds of wisdom
and experience.
“Tell me how that happens? Why do you think people just give you
things?”
Samantha drew her lower lip into her mouth, wetting it before
returning it slowly to view. “I’m not sure,” she said, frowning. “I
like them, they like me and we give each other things.”
“What do you give them?”
“Whatever they need, I guess. I give them myself.”
Gordon was intoxicated by the lilting rhythm of her words, by the
rise and fall of her breasts. He imagined her heart twice as big as
any other heart, matching her breasts which seemed bigger than his
head. How would it be to rest on them, be smothered in the depths of
her cleavage?
Her eyes were green now, meadow green, and they transported him to a
grassy knoll where a light breeze relieved the summer’s heat.
Samantha lay naked on her back on a blanket. Gordon was leaning over
her body, providing her shade. He rubbed her round belly until its
curve was perfectly known to his tender hands. He kissed her breasts
and nipples until his tongue and teeth had memorized the exact shape
and texture of their every part: fleshy round, areole, nipple, the
tiny indented circle that crowned its tip. He licked his way across
her torso and down until she spread her legs and sighed. It was a
perfect day and he was thrilled to be giving her what she needed. He
felt light and gay, like he’d been exported to a haven where love
and lust, interest and kindness were expected and important. Gordon
felt resurrected, hopeful and free.
“Are you listening, Dr. Banks?”
“Yes … No … I’m sorry,” Gordon blurted.
His cheeks were flushed hot with embarrassment and the sexual
intensity of his imaginings and while he was thrilled to be feeling
so alive again, he was horrified by his criminal lack of
professionalism. He felt guilty and ashamed, but was hopelessly
aware that there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn’t even
pretend to be in control. Her eyes were liquid violet now, loving
and seductive, and her breasts seemed to be getting larger and
larger by the moment. Gordon struggled to concentrate, but her words
were simply waves of sound washing over him.
“For instance, last week I went into a second hand store looking for
something to wear to court. All I own are jeans and sweats. I’m an
artist. I do street portraits and that gives me enough to get by
while I work on my landscapes, but . . .”
“How long have you been painting?” Gordon interrupted. A part of him
knew that interrupting a patient was done only in the direst of
emergencies and only in the subject’s best interest, but the more
persuasive part of him just had to know more about her.
“My mother says I started drawing before I could even walk and I’ve
been doing it ever since. I got a scholarship to Art College and
ended up falling in love with oils and landscapes. My canvasses are
large, time consuming and I have to charge a bit for them, but . . .
I’ve sold a few and I have a show coming up.”
Gordon could see her standing before an easel, her Rubenesque hips
in jeans, her huge breasts filling an oversized sweat shirt. Desire
lurched through his body like a bull in a china shop, knocking down
his defenses, his professional ethics and all objectivity as it
went. He grabbed the pad from the table and placed it in his lap,
hoping to hide the bulge that was threatening to burst through the
fabric of his slacks, the bulge that longed to be stroked and
pulled. His balls felt heavy and he was too conscious of the erotic
pathway leading to his ass which pulsed with hope. He forced himself
to concentrate on the Samantha in front of him. The adult and the
child, the innocent and the seductress, the wounded and the healer
had melded inside this woman with devastating effect. Gordon wanted
to hold her and tell her everything would be alright. Gordon wanted
her to hold him and tell him everything was alright. Gordon forced
himself to listen to her words. She had led him back to the case, to
the reason they were here. And he was grateful.
“Anyway, I was looking for a skirt or something and this woman came
up to me, held this suit against me. ‘This will do,’ she told me.
Then she went to the counter, removed the Ezy Tags, put it in a bag
and gave it to me. She wished me good luck like she knew what was
happening to me and I left the store. Nobody stopped me that time.”
“You’re a rare woman,” Gordon heard himself say, “and I understand
people wanting to help you. I know that you’re not a thief and the
judge believes it, too. That’s why you’re here.”
Gordon was fully conscious that he was sharing too much information,
confidences that he had no right to share, facts that had no basis.
Gordon knew that she was innocent, but he didn’t know how he knew.
And he didn’t care. All he cared about was letting her know that he
believed in her innocence, that she wasn’t alone.
“But the judge convicted me,” she said.
“Because of the evidence, he had to. But he wanted to help. He asked
me to help.”
Samantha was smiling at him, beaming. She hugged herself and her
breasts poured over her arms. Her eyes were green pools, bathing his
face, and he wanted no more out of life than this moment. He didn’t
understand what was happening to him, but he was blissfully happy.
“You believed me. I knew you would,” she said, simply. “I like you.
You’re a good man, a beautiful man and you deserve to be very
happy.”
I’m a good man, a beautiful man and I deserve to be happy
Her words flooded across his brain like water over a desert and it
continued to flow, this glorious mantra. Gordon felt like he’d known
Samantha forever, like she was the one person who understood him,
like they existed alone and together in some perfect bubble.
“You are happy, aren’t you?” It was more statement than question.
“Yes, I’m very happy and I haven’t been for a long, long time.”
“I know. Or loved. You deserve to be loved too, really loved.”
Samantha’s eyes had narrowed. An intense, erotic energy radiated out
of them, targeting him. Gordon’s skin began to tingle. From the top
of his head to his toes, he felt the most tantalizing of currents
coursing just under his skin. He became conscious of a swirling
arousing sensation in his balls that were swelling with longing.
And she’s not even touching me!
He watched mesmerized as her bountiful breasts heaved and fell, as
if borne on the crests of giant waves. She had relaxed, spread out.
She had bent one leg up on the couch causing her short skirt to
rise, exposing white cotton panties. He watched Samantha’s tongue
travel across the top of her lip slowly, along the bottom even more
slowly. Her tongue was pink and wet and he could feel it lapping
along his cock which was growing long and thick with anticipation.
Liquid seeped from its head.
And she’s not even touching me!
He tried to remember who he was and why he was here, but he couldn’t
help himself. His excitement was building. He felt like his cock was
inside her warm, wet, pulsing pussy and it felt very, very good.
And she’s not even touching me!
“Excuse me,” he muttered, stumbling out of his chair and escaping
into the adjoining bathroom.
Gratefully, he shut the door behind him and glanced into the mirror
over the basin. He looked normal except for the heightened color
horniness had brought to his face and his eyes that seemed to
reflect confusion and fear and excitement, in dizzying rotations and
combinations. “What are you doing?” he asked himself. There was no
answer. It wasn’t about doing. It was about feeling. And Gordon was
feeling so good that he would pay any price to keep feeling just the
way he did. He eased down his pants and his jockeys and sat on the
toilet. Grabbing a wad of toilet paper, he cleaned the blob of
pre-cum that had escaped onto his jockeys, grateful that his pants
had suffered only the slightest of stains. He gingerly dabbed at his
cock. It was so big and so thick. It made him feel proud. Pride made
it grow larger, feel better. He stood up and shuffled over to the
mirror. He braced himself on the sink and stroked his cock. His legs
buckled because it felt so good. More pre-cum oozed out of the tip
onto his hands. He stared at himself, watched his eyes go sleepy
with horniness, watched his mouth go slack and then gasp for air. It
wouldn’t take long. He would come. He would regain his composure. He
slowly slid his foreskin over the head and down. “Yes, yes,” he
screamed inside.
And then the phone rang, rolling back the tide. Panic pulled in his
belly and took his breath away. He reacted quickly, wiping his cock
and pulling up his trousers. He washed his hands and ran cold water
over his face. He dried himself briskly and strode purposefully back
into the office.
The phone had stopped ringing, but it had accomplished a great goal.
Gordon had to face the fact that his job here was done. Fortunately,
he hadn’t been requested to treat Samantha, only to refer her. And
that’s what he would do.
“Excuse me,” Gordon said, and picked up the phone.
“Who was it, Karen? … Okay, get me the judge and then you can take
off … You’re very welcome. You deserve the time off … Thanks, and
you enjoy yourself. I’ll see you in a month.”
Samantha made her way discreetly toward the bathroom.
“Hello Tom,” Gordon said. “Yes, I’ve seen her and your instincts
were quite right. Her tale is bizarre, but my assessment is that
she’s telling the truth. Her powers of telepathy are near primitive.
She seems to be able to transmit her needs almost automatically and
people respond. … Evidence? Well, for one thing, she couldn’t have
taken off those safety tags herself and they were always removed.
Shops spend a fortune to obtain those things and they’re foolproof…
No, Tom, I’m leaving tomorrow for a long vacation. I’ll be turning
her over to my partner, Michael Soames. As of this moment, she’s no
more my patient. … Okay. You’re welcome, Tom, and my partner will be
in touch … Bye.”
Gordon kissed the phone before placing it on the table. He felt like
he had confessed without confessing and had received absolution. A
great feeling of relief washed over him and he felt like a teenager
in love: goofy and foolish, absolutely horny and certain that this
woman was the woman of his dreams. The pain that had underscored
every moment of his life since the break-up of his marriage, the
plaguing insecurities, the guilt that he had somehow let Molly down
was all displaced by this wondrously good feeling. Gordon started
humming a happy meandering tune.
“That’s lovely.”
Her voice had dropped into a deep, resounding well of sensuality.
Her feet and her strong legs were bare. Gone was her blouse and from
under her inadequate jacket a simple cotton bra offered the most
magnificent rolling, swaying waves of flesh he’d ever seen. Her no
frills cotton panties somehow accentuated her carnality, suggesting
that she needed no accoutrements.
Gordon’s mouth seemed to be filling too quickly with liquid desire
and he gulped, trying not to choke. Without shoes, her hips swayed
just before the swing of her massive breasts and Gordon’s eyes swam
with the effort to absorb it all. As she came closer and closer, a
howling desire gusted through him.
“You need to be loved. You deserve to be loved,” Samantha said,
taking his hand and leading him to the couch. “Don’t say a word!”
Her fingers were as light as feathers as they freed his jacket,
letting it fall from his shoulders as if by magic. His shirt pulled
over his head messed his thick shock of peppered curls and she
smoothed it because she knew he wanted her to. His nipples felt the
air just before the sweetest suck, light at first and then a little
harder, promising more. And he felt like he had breasts, instruments
of pleasure, for the first time.
She kissed her way down his body, taking his trousers with her,
blazing her trail with the lightest of touches, until his legs shook
with the assault of too much pleasure. He bent over, leaning onto
her shoulders to step out of his bottoms, afraid he might fall.
Gordon’s cock, thicker and larger than he’d ever seen it, stood to
attention proudly, dribbling like an adolescent tool longing for its
first fuck. He felt so much pressure at the base of his balls, so
many erotic currents seethed along the nerves of his cock, that it
filled his chest and squeezed tears from his eyes. He felt like he
was in a tunnel, a titty tunnel, as she rose, slowly enveloping one
leg and then the other with her spongy warm breasts. She lingered
around his groin, pressuring him with their mass and then directing
her hands to completely swallow his helpless cock inside her deep
and endless cleavage.
Gordon’s mind was struggling to take control, to say something. But
all he could manage were the mating sounds that he imagined long ago
creatures made. And then she was upright, looking up into his eyes,
reaching up pulling his head toward her. The color of her eyes was
passion, a new color of the rainbow. A color that described her
kiss: the taste of her mouth, the softness of her lips. Her tongue
was sometimes like a penis after sex, sometimes like a hard cock
fucking his mouth. Sometimes their tongues were glued together in a
slow dance, her breasts squeezed against his chest and his cock
locked and hard against her belly. Sometimes they did a kind of
mambo, tongues darting over and under each other. And how did his
cock become bent and wedged between her legs? He didn’t know, but it
was there and it liked her hungry pussy dance, all wet and hot and
horny.
Just when he thought he couldn’t stand a minute longer, Samantha
eased him onto the couch. Her eyes were glinting gold when she
climbed aboard him. She was growling. And his cock became hers as
she teased it with her pussy lips and clit and oozing moistness. And
he prayed that he’d never come when she began to pussy breathe on
him, pulse and toy with his foreskin. So much control, she had so
much control and he was losing his. The pressure of the pleasure was
so great that it straddled the line between pleasure and pain. She
wouldn’t stop taunting him and taunting him until he screamed and
began to buck and thrust. He took hold of her roughly, of her hips.
He thrust his tongue inside her mouth, searching for her throat. He
fucked her like a madman and she laughed hysterically. And he
laughed with her, maniacally. They were insane when they came
together, screeching and laughing and crying. Insane and burning red
to white to silent ash!
“I think I love you,” Gordon said, holding her tight, feeling her
comfort as his cock turned soft inside her.
“I know I love you,” Samantha said, giving his cock a pussy squeeze.
“I’ll be away for a month, although I’m not sure anymore why I’m
going.”
“Because we need time together, that’s a good enough reason.”
“We,” Gordon beamed. “‘We’ is a very good reason.”
They managed to stretch themselves lengthways along the couch with
their arms still around each other. With only love, the smell of sex
and a gooey wetness between them, they fell asleep.
