CML - Custom Made Lover [Slow Updates]

CML - Custom Made Lover, Chapter 2

Browsing the Numan site once again he looked up the frequently asked questions-section to read up on how long it would take to create a CML after all of the required information had been processed. The site told him that on average the process took about a month for regular orders but there was also an express service which would shorten the amount of time required to a week. This, of course, was quite a bit more costly and Caleb wondered if it would be worth the extra expense.

He decided that this was not the case; as much as he would love to have his new partner at home and in his arms as soon as possible he quite simply couldn't afford both the express service and the Rejuvenation Therapy. One of the two would have to go and he was unwilling to cancel either of them.

Delving deeper in to the information on the Numan site he found the answer to both keep the extra money in his pocket and get to see Nathan after only one week; there was an option to follow the new CML's progress from behind the scenes. Creating a CML's body would only take a few days. The real reason it normally took close to a month for one to be ready for shipping was that they needed time to learn their basic skills. Caleb wasn't sure why he had never seen this on the site before but the page he was on recommended that customers come to the Numan facility every other day to see their new CML going through the basic training.

The reason behind this was that customers could then do a last-minute check to see if the order had been carried out to satisfaction and start developing the necessary emotional bond which would make training the CML later more of an act of love rather than a demanding chore. This, according to the site's narrator, had helped keep customer satisfaction close to 98% for almost five years now. Caleb made a note to inquire about the program tomorrow during the interview.

The two appointments had been set for the first day after his retirement for a reason; even though the rejuvenation process would lengthen his life by another thirty years Caleb still felt this need for urgency. He wanted everything to be taken care of as soon as possible so he could start living life as he knew he wanted it to be lived. This would be his reward for the forty long, productive years of work he had done for Ryan Corp which had benefited them greatly. A year ago he would have laughed at his impatience at having to wait one more month before he would at last be united with the man of his dreams. After all he had waited twenty years already; what was another month compared to the many years that had come before? The option to watch Nathan as they prepared him for life outside the Numan facility made his impatience from before die down a little; as a scientist he would find it fascinating to see the learning process taking place.

Caleb checked the time; it was only five thirty. It would be another eighteen hours for his rejuvenation treatment and then another four before his appointment at Numan; he decided to take a nice, hot bath to relax a little. Perhaps he would even order the services of a masseuse to work on his tired muscles which might even help the Rejuvenation process. Caleb arranged for room service to run him a hot bath with some scented herbs.

The time it took for everything to be arranged he spent browsing the information on the Numan site some more. He learned that a lot of juridical waivers needed signing, a standard practice; bringing a person in to the world who looked adult but who was essentially helpless without guidance carried with it a lot of responsibility. After the company would be done creating the person to the customer's specifications and teach them basic language, motor and social skills the further education was solely the customer's responsibility. If a CML ended up causing trouble, which some of them had done in the past, the Numan company could not be sued. Caleb had studied the cases of the troublesome CML's and found that most of the time the problem had been that their creator, or guardian, had not taught them the skills required or had tried educating a CML along with holding down a full-time job which left the newly created person to fend for themselves during working hours.

This in particular was the reason Caleb had decided to wait until after his retirement to put his plans in to action; he would have all day every day to teach Nathan about the world and the people in it thereby equipping him with enough knowledge and skills to handle himself properly.

Room service came and went, leaving him a hot, scented bath to settle in to. He slid in to the tub slowly, getting used to the temperature change as best as he could. The fragrance rising from the water put his mind to rest. Closing his eyes slowly he relaxed considerably as his thoughts turned to fantasize about his partner-to-be.

The warmth and pressure of the water was just strong enough to imagine he was cuddled up to Nathan under a soft, warm blanket. He smiled absentmindedly as he crossed his arms over his chest simulating a hug. Taking the moment to work out the details he formed a mental image of the body he would soon be holding close. He had decided on a lean body with a light complexion and a slight, muscular tone. At one point he had considered a tougher build but it would not have matched the fine features of the face he had worked so hard on. After some consideration he had also concluded that he would be much happier holding a slight frame in his arms rather than a bulky one.

This also played in to the fact that he preferred to be the dominant one in the relationship; something he felt required having a tougher physique than his partner. It was true that there were couples where the smaller of the two was actually in control but Caleb's ideas on the matter were too conservative to accept this arrangement.

Time passed and the day dream slowly went from curious exploration to outright eroticism, the pink haze normally surrounding the face of his future lover being replaced with hurried flashes of illicit activities. One arm stayed pinned to the chest as though keeping a ghostly Nathan firmly in place while the hand on the other roamed freely, paying special attention to all the extra sensitive areas on his body. His normal inhibitions slipped and fell by the wayside as his fantasies grew ever more scandalous, bringing himself steadily closer to the unavoidable climax. Funnily enough the one thing that pushed him over the edge was not one of the many kinky details of their imagined love-making but just the thought of a deep, slow and sensual kiss followed by a breathless 'I love you'.

His breathing stopped for just a second as a wave of ecstasy and relief washed over him, the moment being played over and over again in his mind. He lay back in the bath tub, panting slightly, and used a wash cloth to wipe the perspiration from his face, repeating the gesture a few times as he found it comforting. 'Just one more month', he told himself as he calmed down, thoughts turned to turning in for the night.
