It Could Be A Trap

"Wow, you're really bossy when you want to be," Matt said to her, giving her a kiss. "I think I like it."

"I love bossing people around," Sophie smiled. "It's so cute watching people wonder why they're obeying me." The man returned, carrying the snacks she'd requested, which he handed to Matt and Sophie.

"Good boy," Sophie said cheerfully. "Now go and serve the rest of your customers."

The man returned to the ticket desk, and Matt and Sophie walked into the theatre, which was full to the brim.

"Where are we gonna sit?" Matt asked. "There's no space."

"Oh ye of little faith," Sophie said. She then walked over to a couple that was cuddling at the back. "You two, go and fuck in your car."

"We don't have a car, we walked," the boy said.

"So go home and fuck," Sophie ordered. The two of them immediately got up and left. "After you, Mr Evans."

"Why thank you, Miss Swift," Matt smiled, before sitting down. "You know, I'm starting to really like this whole genie thing."

"Yes, but tonight is all about us," Sophie giggled. She gave Matt a kiss, and then they cuddled each-other to watch the movie.

"Enjoying the movie?" Matt and Sophie were shocked as the screen turned to a shot of Neil. "Don't worry, all the other cinema-goers are sleeping. Your presence is requested. Both of you. We'll be waiting for you at your house, Sophie. Please don't keep us waiting too long. Okay Ophelia, put things here back to normal."

"Your wish is my command, Master," they heard Ophelia say of screen, before the movie re-started, and everyone in the cinema woke up.

"Well that's a shame, I was enjoying the movie," Sophie said.

"Are we gonna go?" Matt asked. "It could be a trap."

"Of course it could. But I don't think it is. And anyway, it's like Alexis said, it's in our interests at the moment to go along with them. Now come on."

Sophie stood up, and addressed the room.

"Everyone!" She shouted. "Put your hands up if you've got a car." About two thirds of the room put their hands up.

"Good," Sophie said, picking a guy at random. "Come with me. Drive me and my boyfriend home. 32 Wayford Way."

"At once," the man said in a trance-like state.

"Why don't we just teleport back to your place?" Matt asked as they followed the man.

"Because ordering people around is much more fun," Sophie replied.

The man drove them home. They got out, and walked in the front door. When they looked inside, however, they didn't find Sophie's living room. They found an ornate dining room, with a feast set out. Brian, Sarah, Neil and Jürgen were sat around the table, with their genies stood attentively.
