She heard a "Snap", saw his finger move up off the black box and felt her motion cease.She heard a "Snap", saw his finger move up off the black box and felt her motion cease. He took his eyes off hers and ducked under the ring between her arms and gazed down into her eyes directly. "God he's handsome", she remembered having thought as she gazed up into his pale blue eyes. His eyes sparkled and seemed to smile down at her. He raised his empty left hand and brushed his finger tips gently across her leather restrained forehead and back up into her sweat matted and coated hair. Then he lifted his hand forward and ran a finger from the tip of her nose along it's length up between her eyes and across her forehead into her hair and then lifted it off her head and let his arm drop to his side. He ducked back under the "mounting ring" and walked to the dimly lit, ominous, equipment wall which was almost out of her view. She heard something rattling and, soon, he returned with a wheeled cart with drawers in it and some bottles on top of it. Some of the bottles had what looked like those hospital straws in them.....the ones that bent in the middle as they came up out of the bottles. He reached under her head and unfastened her ball gag strap, then slowly lifted the gag up out of her mouth. Then he reached over toward the side of her face and undid the strap that held that painful, ever hurting stainless steel ring behind her teeth, resting against the roof and bottom of her mouth and propping it obscenely open. As the strap loosened, he lifted it upward. She cooperated by opening her mouth as wide as she possibly could. In the mirror, she saw the strap and ring arrangement begin to rise out of her mouth. When it was gone, she closed her mouth, for the first time in hours and hours, and sighed a great sigh of relief. |
