Influencing Jennifer

You woke up in the morning feeling completely refreshed and free. You couldn’t help but love the freedom that came with having no responsibilities to speak of. You didn’t have to worry about paying your bills, being good at your job, or waking up early every day. Sleep is so important to the human body after all, and you definitely weren’t getting enough of it before now. You could’ve spent your day doing anything productive, but instead you just sat on the couch and started watching a random show.

You keep lazing about until Jennifer comes home. Jennifer gets off a couple hours earlier than Marcus, so you have a bit of time before he comes home. Jennifer frowns as she notices you on the couch as she walks up to you. You stare at Jennifer’s approaching figure as you look at her outfit for the day with disappointment. Her large grey hoodie and loose black sweatpants hide her amazing figure quite well and don’t leave you much to stare at. At least, she didn’t hide her beautiful and vibrant green eyes behind anything other than her black-rimmed glasses. Which makes her look even sexier if you were being completely honest with yourself.

She pursed her pink, pillowy lips together as she tried to find the words to express her disapproval. You quickly shifted the subject from whatever she was thinking about to what you wanted to talk about.

“Please, Jennifer, sit on the couch. You must be tired from your long day.”

You didn’t know if it was because she didn’t want to be near you, didn’t trust you, or was more resistant to the app, but there was a long pause before she eventually sat on the couch.

“I am tired, but I don’t appreciate coming home and seeing a couch potato.”

You didn’t want to make her uncomfortable, so you replied, “I’m sorry you feel that way. I was searching for a job all morning, and it wasn’t going well, so I decided to take a break to watch some television to clear my mind.”

Jennifer looked slightly guilty and stunned by your response, partly because you never apologized to her before. “I’m sorry for jumping to the wrong conclusions. It’s been a rough day, and I might’ve taken a bit of my anger out on you.”

You nodded understandingly, “You should relax, Jennifer. You’re home now after all.”

You saw her pause again, but this time it was much shorter, as you saw her shoulders relax a bit. However, she was nowhere close to being as relaxed as you wanted her to be.

“Do you want anything?”

Jennifer was once again surprised as she looked at you and replied, “A glass of water would be nice.”

“No problem.”

You get up and make Jennifer a cold glass of water while you feel her gaze on you every step of the way. She hesitantly takes the glass of water and drinks a sip.

“A nice cold glass of water is very relaxing. Each sip of water will make you more relaxed. There's nothing wrong with finishing a cold glass of water.”

You don’t notice Jennifer flinch as she swallows more and more water. Her shoulders gradually relax as more tension leaves her body. She sets the glass down as she lies back and sinks a bit into the couch.

“You appreciate me a lot more for getting you that glass of water and helping you relax.”

Jennifer hardly flinched as she thanked him for the water with a relaxed smile on her face.

“Thanks, I needed that.”

“It’s no problem. I’m glad that you trust me enough to help you relax.”

Jennifer paused for a minute as her mind struggled to accept the command before replying, “You’re right. I’m glad that you’re here to help me relax.”

You got up to get another glass of cold water as you handed it to Jennifer. Jennifer didn’t look like she wanted to drink more, but he could change that.

“You’re so thirsty, Jennifer. You’d love another glass of water.”

Jennifer blinked at the command before eagerly grabbing the glass and starting to gulp down the water once again.

“Each gulp of water will make you extremely relaxed and agreeable.”

Jennifer’s body froze as she fought against the suggestion, but she had already started drinking the water. The previous suggestion caused her to relax and accept the new suggestion more easily as she continued to drink the water. You grabbed the glass from her hand as she sank further into the couch and closed her eyes, looking completely content.

You smiled at the progress you’re making as you continued to try to strengthen the hold you have on Jennifer.

“You love being this relaxed. You’re grateful to me for helping you feel this way.”

Jennifer's smile grew a little larger as she made no effort to resist the command.

“You know that you were only able to get this relaxed because of me. Drinking water doesn’t normally make you this relaxed. It’s only when I give you a glass of water that you’ll be able to relax like this.”

You couldn’t believe you almost let her relax so much from a normal glass of water without your intervention. You needed to be more careful with your suggestions. You wanted her to be reliant only on you and no one else, especially not her husband.

“You must trust me immensely to relax so much around me. Only I could ever make you feel this relaxed.”

Jennifer nodded slightly as she continued to relax on the couch.

“Since you’re so relaxed around me, then you must trust and highly value my opinion.”

Jennifer resisted much more than before. If she wasn’t this relaxed, then you wondered if she would’ve shrugged off the suggestion, but she eventually gave in to the suggestion and agreed.

“You have such a beautiful body. It’s such a shame that you hide it from the world with baggy or oversized clothes. You should make an effort to show it off more.”

Jennifer’s eyes shot open, and she said, “No, I can’t.”

You gaze at Jennifer in shock as she completely resists the command.

“Yes, you can, Jennifer,” you say as you put your hand on her shoulder, which she never would’ve allowed, not even an hour earlier.

“You’re a strong, beautiful woman. No one in this house thinks otherwise. I’m sure you can wear some more comfortable clothing in your own home.”

Jennifer's vibrant green eyes stare at you with curiosity and happiness as she says, “You’re right. Thank you, Dustin.”

“I’m always happy to help such a sexy woman like you,” you say in an overly dramatic tone that causes Jennifer to laugh and not take your comment too seriously.

You were going to try to make more changes, but Dustin arrived home. Apparently, they were overjoyed about his decision and let him off early in celebration. Your eye twitched in irritation, but you made enough progress for today already.
