" Wishful thinking my friend," I said and got another slice of apple."Or better yet, he'll only take ME with him," She giggled.That, for some reason m...de me feel jealous.We finished up our homework and listened to more of Wendy's music, when I heard a loud roaring car noise. I felt my heart race. I looked out the window and sure enough Jack had come just like he said he would. Wendy squealed when she saw the car."He's here! The man of my dreams is here!" She yelped."Shhh!" I shushed. We entered one door and Bill lifted Wendy and carried her across the threshold of the door to his room. Rick was obviously furious."What's the matter Rick?" I asked after Bill and Wendy disappeared behind the inner door to Bill's room."It's my own fault," he said. "I'm the one that wanted to swap, to see her with another man. Now I'm afraid I might have lost her." What are you talking about?" I said. "What did she say on the elevator?"Rick explained, "She thanked me for talking her into this,. I set my wallet and keys on the dresser and began to undress myself. I quickly got all of my clothes off and put on my pajama pants and a long sleeve tee shirt. Then, slipping into my slippers, I went downstairs to prepare us both some dinner. Dinner for the evening was a simple “Ready-bake” popcorn shrimp package and French fries from Costco, all baked on a cookie sheet. I put servings of each onto two plates and poured us both some juice into small plastic glasses. I took her dinner and drink. I gasped, trembled as my body slid forward on the table from the force of the swat, unable to stop my forward motion with my hands. However, my knees did not buckle.Another loud crack and again I cried out, unable to stop a moan from escaping my tightly pursed lips. I was trying to be grown up and hide my pain.I swallowed hard and tried to brave. The paddle slammed into my butt and I vocalized my pain letting loose with a high-pitched girlish scream. Nobody noticed in the neighborhood. My wails.
