James continued to snort and grunt as loudly as he could. It might not have been particularly useful to him but it was the only form of communication he had at his disposal and it was at least enough to get Nicola's attention. He just needed her to remember.
"What is it now?" Nicola sighed as she walked back and crouched down to look James in the eye again."What is up with you today, you silly little pig?"
As Nicola stroked his back fondly it became clear to James that whoever had warped Nicola's memories had just as deliberately left his mind in tact when they had turned him into a farmyard animal. They wanted him to feel the full humiliation of being a lowly beast owned and tended to by the girl he adored, and for her to see him as no more than that. Was there any way he could break Nicola out of the spell she was under?
James snorted again, it still being his only option. For a brief moment it seemed to have successfully dislodged some memory ot other. But..
"That's it!" Nicola jumped to her feet excitedly "The vet is due here any moment. No wonder you are so antsy!"
As the sound of a car pulling up came into earshot, Nicola began frantically adjusting her hair and undid the top button of her blouse. What was up with her?
That soon became obvious to James when the vet arrived. He was a dashingly handsome, suave and sophisticated gentleman. There was no way Nicola wasn't attracted to him.
"Good morning. How can I help my favourite farmer today?" The vet smiled a little too warmly.
"Um, if you could just check on James, my pig over there" Nicola seemed uncharacteristically flustered "He's been a little rambunctious today"
"Ah, what a shame. I had hoped you just wanted to see me" the vet flashed Nicola a cheesy smile. James could tell he was a creep.
Nicola giggled pathetically, James thought, as the vet walked over to him and produced a thermometer from his pocket. The boar squealed angrily at what was obviously about to happen.
"I see what you mean" the vet held James down quite roughly as he inserted a cold, metallic object into his anus "I'd best take his temporature for starters"
"Thanks" Nicola smiled, completely spellbound.
"Look, this is probably completely unprofessional and innapropriate" the vet turned his attention from James to Nicola "And I know we don't know each other well. But I find you extremely beautiful. Is there any chance we might get to know each other a little better?"
