Aurora was exhausted. With everything going on, it just seemed she couldn't keep up. Bills were piling up, she was falling behind on her mortgage, her car needed repairs, the list was endless. In desperation, she put an ad out for a renter. The first three applicants weren't the kind of people she wanted in her home, but the fourth was just perfect.
His name was Christoper Charming, and he was a therapist that had just moved to town. He was looking at setting up an office nearby, but was still looking for a more permanent home. He was happy to pay month to month, and when Aurora asked when he could move in, he smiled at her. When he passed the first month's rent check over, plus deposit, Aurora was thrilled.
He was a busy man, but always took a few minutes to chat with her when he was around. He helped with the household chores, and Aurora felt some of the stress fading every day. Still, she laid awake at night, unable to fall asleep, worries and anxiety keeping her awake into the early hours of the morning. Her insomnia was starting to affect her work. Her boss had yelled at her, upset by her reduced productivity. He had given her an ultimatum. Shape up, or lose her job. Chris came home that night and Aurora was sitting at the table crying.
Chris sat down with her, and gently took her hand rubbing his thumbs in relaxing circles as he spoke. Aurora couldn't hold it in anymore and all of her stress and anxiety came bubbling up, pouring out of her in a sobbing flood. He just sat and listened, his calm voice gently leading her through issue after problem after worry. It was well past dinnertime when she finished, but strangely, she felt better for having gotten it out. She was emotionally exhausted, but she felt... lighter. He offered to make dinner when her stomach let out a gentle, soft growl, and she smiled at him in thanks. He offered to whip up some simple tacos and as he was browning the meat, he spoke.
"Do you just was a sympathetic ear, or a solution plan?"
Aurora looked at him quizzically, drying her eyes with the tissue he had generously provided. He simply shrugged.
"I'm a therapist, and I'd like to think I'm a friend. I can help or just listen. It's up to you."
"W-what could y-you do to h-help?" Aurora asked, her breath shaking with the hiccups left behind after her sob session.
"It seems stress and insomnia are your major factors for the downturn in your quality of life. Some relaxation sessions should help with that. No charge, of course."
It was a life preserver that she hadn't known was available to her. She couldn't afford a regular therapist, and Aurora jumped at the chance. He smiled and handed her a plate of steaming food. After they ate, enjoying some companionable silence, he led her to the couch, bidding her to lay down.
He closed the blinds, lit a candle and turned off the lights. Aurora's eyes were drawn to the flickering flame, his voice, low, calm and soothing, faded into the background as she watched the light dance at the top of the candle.
She hadn't even realized she had fallen asleep, but when she woke in her own bed the next morning (still fully dressed) Aurora was shocked. She felt rested and clear-headed for the first time in... well... far longer than she could remember. She rushed downstairs and saw Chris frying some scrambled eggs. He greeted her with a smile and served her breakfast.
Aurora blushed, unused to someone looking out for her. When she asked what had happened he explained.
"It was a simple hypnosis technique. All I did was place a mild trigger. It'll need frequent reinforcement, since your anxiety is deeply embedded, but it basically clears your mind. You stop worrying about things. As in stop worrying about anything. Completely. Then it's a simple redirect to feeling the fatigue and desire to sleep. Without the anxiety and worries keeping you awake, falling asleep becomes easy."
It might have worried Aurora, but somehow she knew she shouldn't. It didn't worry her at all, in fact. Which also should have worried her. But... it didn't. She knew that it was just a light relaxation technique, and if it got rid of her stress and kept her from worrying... well, what did it matter? She couldn't worry about anything in her trance. Which also meant she couldn't worry about anything from her trances.
Aurora was so delighted, she asked if he could do it again that night. When he agreed, she had to fight to hold in her delighted squeal. When the evening finally came, he had her lay down again, watching the flame. She felt her mind begin to drift as it danced and flickered, his soothing voice helping her relax. She wanted to relax. Needed to be stress free. Worry free. Anxiety free.
When she was listening like this she felt so sleepy. The cushions were so soft. She almost felt as if her mind was asleep but her body was awake. It felt so free to just relax and drift. She was dimly aware of her lips moving, words escaping her as she spoke, but her sleeping mind couldn't worry. It was so blissful to just feel so sleepy.
Aurora woke the next day, brightly, happily greeting the day. She skipped happily downstairs, greeting Chris with a huge hug. He smiled back at her and squeezed back.
"Oh my god, soooo much better!"
He smiled and asked if she wanted another session like that every night. Aurora enthusiastically agreed. That was the beginning. Over the next few weeks, her work and focus improved as the stresses seemed to fall away.
Aurora grew more comfortable around Chris. She didn't have so much anxiety anymore, and she didn't, couldn't, worry about what happened in trance. One Saturday morning, Aurora greeted him with her usual morning hug, and he whispered in her ear.
Aurora slumped into his arms with a blissful moan, listening as he spoke. His lips pecked her cheek, and Aurora smiled as she woke, twirling her shirt on a fingertip as he gazed at her bra-covered tits. Aurora wasn't worried. She couldn't worry about things in trance. She didn't mind him seeing her underwear. He was her Prince Charming, and she was his Sleeping Beauty.
Aurora woke one afternoon, blinking with surprise as she kissed him hello when she got back home from work. She gasped in delighted amazement as she remembered going through the entire day, her body moving and going through the workday on it's own. She felt so free!
Chris admitted he was curious to see if she could do it, spending the entire day in trance. Her eyes had been open, but her mind remained deeply asleep. She was even able to work and interact with others normally. Despite his worries, it had worked flawlessly. To celebrate, she cooked him dinner that night, and dashed to the couch afterwards, lighting the candle as he followed her. She smiled at him as she stripped down to her bra and panties, since she was so comfortable around him anyway she had woken from trance in her underwear before, and she didn't, couldn't, worry about it. She also didn't, couldn't, worry about the signals she was sending.
Aurora heard him whisper into her ear, and her body relaxed immediately, her mind emptying itself in an instant as she moaned in bliss. Aurora didn't, couldn't, worry as she felt the whisper of fabric leaving her body when she peeled herself out of her clothes. Aurora's sleeping mind obeyed as he spoke, and she knelt in front of him, empty and worry free. He spoke to her mind, filling her with happiness as she knelt naked before him, his soft voice keeping the stress and anxiety at bay.
Her sleeping mind heard his fingers snap, and thick, hard, delicious skin danced on her tongue as she kissed her way down his body. Her lips parted, and Aurora groaned as pure foggy pleasure assaulted her sleeping mind as she began to bob her head, his groans of pleasure inspiring her body to suck harder, move faster, slide deeper.
She swallowed the thick, creamy gift he gave her, not able to worry as he came inside her mouth. Aurora's closed, sleepy eyes never opened, her mind in a deep, obedient sleep as she continued to suck and lick until he hardened once more. Aurora lay back on the couch and panted with sleepy, foggy lust as he slid inside her wet, aching pussy. She screamed in bliss as he filled her womb, triggering a massive, sleepy orgasm, but it was still not enough to pull her mind into wakefulness.
From that point on, Aurora felt the pure, blessed pleasure of emptiness. Stress, worry and anxiety free, she floated through days, then weeks, then months without waking. She floated through her days, blissfully empty and stress free, laughing and joking with her friends. Working hard and coming home to her Prince Charming.
Aurora never worried anymore, even when her Prince's lusts took a darker turn in the bedroom. She didn't, couldn't, worry about it though. Every night, her Prince Charming dropped her mind deeper into blissfully empty sleep. Every night, Aurora came and came, deepening her fatigue, keeping her mind and worries at bay.
Aurora slept, her mind weakened and unresisting. He played with her body, training her anxiety free mind to move and obey. It was heaven for her. Then one day, he came up to her, slipping deep into her tight, wet pussy as he held her from behind, slowly fucking her as her mind slept. As his lust built, he spun her around, pushing her to her knees. Her glassy, sleepy eyes gazed up at her Prince Charming in wonder as he spoke to her. Aurora shivered as she tasted herself on his cock when it slid into her sleepy, welcoming mouth.
"I wonder if we can keep you asleep for years, Sleeping Beauty? Should we try it?"
Aurora moaned as she stroked her clit in time with her bobbing head.
"I like you this way. Docile, sleepy, obedient. I think we should try. Lets see if we can go two years without waking you. After all, Sleeping Beauty can only wake with True Love's kiss from her Prince Charming..."
Aurora could only moan as she came on her fingers, shivering with pleasure as her mind slipped into unending sleep...
