Future Darkly: The Aura Doll

SCENE opens on the outdoor patio of a quiet café. Becca (Whitney Wright), a mild-mannered college student, sits quietly reading when her friend arrives with a pair of coffees. Putting her book aside, they hug and sit down to catch up, sipping their beverages and small talking about life and their plans for the next semester. Becca's phone suddenly buzzes. It's a notification from a dating site she's subscribed to, telling her she's got a new match. Becca looks embarrassed, but her friend encourages her to swipe and check out the man's profile. After all, she did say she wanted to get out more after her breakup, right? Becca nods. The man is handsome, older, and has messaged her, asking if she would be interested in a threesome with him and his girlfriend. The thought of this makes Becca blush but her friend encourages her to write back. 'That app is vetted, I use it all the time!' she says. 'What's the worst that's going to happen? You have a funny story to tell?' Becca bites her lip and asks for reassurance. Should she should really write him back? The friend nods. 'Totally,' she says, sipping her coffee as the camera pans down Becca's unsure face to the profile she is staring at. CUT TO TITLE PLATE Becca stands in the bathroom mirror, in her bra and panties. She is staring at herself, trying to psych herself up for her date when her phone buzzes again. The man she met on the app, Robert, has texted her directly. 'We can't wait to meet you tonight!' She bites her lip before turning back to stare at herself in the mirror. A slight smirk crosses her face. She's excited. Cut to Robert's house. Becca knocks and nervously straightens herself out, when Robert (Tommy Pistol) opens the door. He is calm and inviting, exclaiming how breathtakingly beautiful she is and extending his hand to lead her inside. The living room has been set up with candles, which he offers, and she accepts. They small talk for a few minutes, mostly about how nervous and excited they both are. It's their first time doing this. Becca is very charmed by the mild-mannered man and even allows herself to get closer to him, as they both start to gear up for their hookup together. But someone is missing. She casually asks Robert where his girlfriend is. 'Oh, she's just in the next room,' he says confidently. 'We were putting the finishing touches on dinner. Would you like to meet her?' Becca nods and they stand up to walk in the other room, where a full dinner has been laid out on a nicely decorated dining table. A woman sits frozen at the end of the table, her back to Becca. Robert starts to rant about the lovely meal they have prepared and how excited his girlfriend, Harper, is about their night together while Becca stares at the woman's backside. A chill runs down her spine. Why isn't the woman moving? She slowly turns to look at the man whose hand is now grazing her back. 'Robert....?' She begins to say when, nervously, the man pulls Becca into the room fully to introduce Harper. A silicone love doll, dressed neatly in a party dress, has been propped up in a chair waiting for them. Becca's eyes go wide, and her mouth drops open in shock, as she backs away from the table and the man's grasp. 'What is wrong with you?' She gasps, grabbing her bag while he chases after her. Robert pleads with her to stop, to listen to him, to listen to them. Yes, it is an unconventional relationship, but his love for Harper goes far beyond just a toy. Since his actual wife died years ago, she has been his only true source of comfort. The only woman who wouldn't reject him. It was her attention and affection that helped him gain the confidence to start dating again. To try the app. It was her loyalty that made him feel like a whole person again. Couldn't she please just try to be understanding? She seemed so open-minded while they were chatting. Harper isn't just a doll, she is a real woman, just one made of silicone. If she would only stay and try it, she might even enjoy the experience. As Robert rambles on, Becca backs up to the door, her mind racing. She is able to stammer 'No thank you. I'm not interested. Please don't contact me again!' before running off into the night. That night, as Becca lies in bed, she dreams that Harper is lying beside her. In her dream, she begins to caress and kiss the silicone woman's body as the camera cuts back and forth between her fantasy and her tossing in her bed. Finally, she opens her eyes to find herself alone and breathing heavily. The next day, Becca sits beside her bed, distracted. She keeps picking up the phone but there has been no contact from Robert. She stares at his profile longingly, wishing she could see Harper's face too. Later that evening, Becca lays on her bed, looking at her laptop. She searches 'silicone woman' and pulls up a website called AuraDolls.com. Scrolling through it, she discovers the Harper model and stares at it. She can't help but be turned on by the thought of being with her. She knows what she needs to do. She closes the laptop and, grabbing her purse, leaves the apartment. Robert sits in his bedroom, quietly reading beside Harper, when he hears someone slam the front door and run up his stairs. Nervously, he gets out of bed to confront them when Becca appears in his bedroom doorway. She is frazzled and full of adrenaline. 'Becca! How did you get in here?' He asks, confused. She walks up and kisses him boldly on the mouth. 'I let myself in, I hope you don't mind.' She whispers. It's the first time a real woman has kissed him in years and Robert melts at her touch. She looks at the doll sitting in the bed. 'I want to try it,' she whispers in his ear. Robert starts to tear up, as he looks at the two women in his bedroom. He takes Becca's hand and pulls back the cover to his bed to invite her in. Tentatively, Becca begins to caress Harper's face, asking Robert if she can kiss Harper. Robert hops onto the bed and puts his arm around Harper, telling Becca that she's very affectionate. Becca climbs up onto the bed and moves towards Harper. She confesses to Robert that she's very nervous, but he reassures her, telling her that there's nothing to be nervous about. Becca can treat her like a real person. Becca delicately kisses Harper's soft lips before turning her attention to Robert and kissing him. Soon the two pull away from each other and slowly peel the negligee off of Harper's chest. Robert leads Becca in caressing Harper's full breasts as Becca gasps. Robert takes off Becca's shirt as she lays down next to Harper. Slipping off the rest of Becca's clothes, Robert trails kisses down her thighs, lightly tonguing her clit before spreading Harper's legs and licking her pussy. Alternating between Harper and Becca, Robert eats both of them out hungrily. Becca may have been hesitant at first, but now that she's gotten to know Harper, can she ever live without the Aura Doll again?
