* * *
“Hey sweetie.” The person next to you at the bar smiled, a little drunkenly. You smiled back, feeling the soft buzz in your head. It felt good. The two of you had been making eyes at one another across the bar all night. Evidently, they had mustered up the courage to speak first.
“C’mere.” They said, pulling on your arm. You followed, effortlessly. You didn’t know why. But you knew it felt… Right. “You’re cute. What’s your name?” you told them, and from there, the tow of you were flirting. There wasn’t any of your usual awkwardness. It felt right, again.
And something else you couldn’t help but notice was their eyes. Soft, seeming to grab your attention, you thought you might miss what they were saying sometimes, but each word penetrated your mind so easily. So effortlessly. You couldn’t bring yourself to turn away from them.
They smiled as they leaned in, and kissed you. You should have been taken aback, but you weren’t. It felt right, again. And as your kiss deepened, you realised why it felt right. You and your hypnotist parted, the fog of amnesia sliding away. They smiled. “Okay, that was fun.”
