Alex's new clothes

"Alex, can you hear me?" I asked. She insisted I call her Alex.

"Yes," she responded sleepily. "I can hear you."

"Open your eyes, but remain in trance."

Alex obeyed, opening her eyes.

"When I say 'sleepy ****', you will drop into this trance again. Got it?"

Alex nodded.

"Okay, now..." I wanted to see if this hypnosis was real, so I made her do something she would never do in a million years. "Alex, when I snap my fingers you will wake up as normal, but you believe that stripping into your underwear, a bikini, or lingerie while at home with me is a way to be a better roommate. When at home alone, you will go nude, and when at home with friends, you will wear clothes until they leave. You hate wearing clothes at home otherwise. Got it?"

Alex nodded.

I snapped my fingers. Alex blinked twice.

"I'm sorry, what were we doing?" she asked. "I must have spaced...why am I wearing clothes? Hang on, John, I've got to go change."

She went up to her room, and came back ten minutes later in a blue bikini. I should have figured she didn't have anything too wild, as even as an adult, she seemed to be just as shy as she was in college.

"Much better," she said. "Why didn't you tell me I had clothes on? You know I hate wearing them unless out in public or with friends..."

"Sorry, Alex," I said. "You just got home. You were showing me your hypnosis trick."

"Oh, that's right!" Alex said. She sat back down across from me and picked up her watch. Before she could do anything with it, however...

"Sleepy ****!" I called, dropping her into trance once more.

Okay, so the hypnosis was real. But why stop now?
