Movie description: "Take My Breath Away". TAKE MY BREATH AWAY SHY TEEN WITH DARK DESIRE SEEKS OUT STRANGER TO CHOKE HER DURING SEX In her bathtub at night, shy nerdy teen Lucy stares up at the ceiling, unmoving. The tap drips as the only indication of sound or movement. After several seconds, there is a light disturbance in the still bathwater, and then Lucy lets out a small gasp -- she's moved her hand to slip a finger into her pussy under the water. When her finger is all the way in, she pauses for a moment, then starts slowly moving it in and out to pleasure herself, her gasps becoming heavy and sensual -- several close-ups of her mouth and face, along with heightened sounds of inhaling and exhaling, draw heavy focus towards her breathing. After a half-minute or more, fully immersed in her fantasy, she inhales a single long drawnout breath through her teeth, as she slowly slips under the water, submersing herself. She stays under, and the water goes perfectly still. CUT TO TITLE PLATE At her computer another morning, Lucy is in her pajamas typing up a college paper. She is stuck on a sentence, not sure what to write next. She breaths out a huge sigh of frustration, removes her glasses, and rubs her eyes wearily. Putting her glasses back on a little crooked, she tries to go back to writing... But a previously opened tab in the corner of her eye distracts her, and she clicks back onto it.W E see on the screen that it's a site for breath play enthusiasts called 'Breathless'.H Er breathing shallows, and she runs her fingers along where her neck meets the collar of her nightshirt as a nervous tic.S He opens up a chat bar where she has a message already open and typed out, a message to another member.F Rom the wording, it seems to be the last in a long line of messages between them.T Owards the end of her message, she's suggesting that they meet up.H Er face and body language shows she is still undecided as to whether to send it or not.C Learly anxious, and idly running her fingers along her chest and up and down her throat, Lucy deliberates for several seconds.T Hen, spontaneously she shoots her hand out to click send.S He gets an alert that the message has been sent.S He closes the laptop in panic, almost in fear of what she's just done... Or perhaps what the response might be.S He bites her thumb nervously and taps the laptop casing, before removing her glasses and flopping down on her bed.H Er breathing is fast and nervous as she closes her eyes and lies there, eyes shut, until her breathing eventually calms itself. CUT TO another evening, in the doorway of a house.L Ucy walks through the door, followed by a strange man a couple of years older than her, Preston.H E's holding keys and locks the door behind him -- this is his place, not hers.T Hey are both visibly awkward around each other as they remove their shoes and he leads them up to his master bedroom.O Nce there, they sit side by side on the bed, at first making no move to close the gap between them.T Hey talk about the breath-play site they met at, how long each of them has been a member, how they found out about it, etc.L Ucy joined around when she turned 18.P Reston reaffirms what was said in the chat, that Lucy has never done anything like it before.N Either has he.T He closest he came was when he practiced choke grips on a first aid doll once when his dad brought one home from work, and it turned him on.H E's immediately embarrassed from telling the story, but Lucy tells him she understands -- she has nobody she can talk to about her fetish either.I T's tough for a guy to ask a girl to do that, Preston admits, it would make him look like a serious creep.H E's always hoped some girl would ask him, but he knows it's a long shot.L Ucy sympathizes - everyone assumes that because she's shy and nerdy that she's completely innocent.O Ne time she asked her boyfriend to choke her, and he was a bit freaked out by the idea and she quickly told him never mind.F Or the next few days he acted weird around her, and then not long after he broke up with her.E Ver since, she's been too shy to tell anybody she's been with, because she doesn't want boys to think she's some weird freak.E Specially with how word spreads around college. There's an awkward pause, and then Preston asks if she wants to start any specific way.S Hyly, Lucy shakes her head no -- she never really pictured where to go from here, she never even thought she'd ever get this far.P Reston says he's seen a few videos, it's given him a few ideas of what to do.D Oes she mind if he takes the lead?L Ucy says it's fine, he can try whatever he wants, and that if it gets too intense she can tap on the bed with her hand.P Reston agrees to this, and moves his hand up hesitantly towards her neck.H E pauses, she nods, and he continues.H E grabs her throat, and squeezes -- not too rough at first, but hard enough that she certainly feels it.A S he grips her throat tightly, he moves in to kiss her, first up the side of her neck, her ear, the side of her cheek, then he turns her head towards his and kisses her mouth.H E kisses passionately, albeit a bit awkwardly -- he moves as someone who is less suavely copying moves that he's seen elsewhere.S Till, he remains in control throughout, and Lucy submits with a gasp each time he reasserts his dominance with a renewed grip on her throat.
