Eddie and Kathy walked in front of Brad and me with their arms around each other."I would have done it you know," I told Brad.Brad nodded. "Yes, I kno... you would have, Little-bit. I can wait until after school though."When we got into the building, kids came up to us and congratulated us for winning the tournament. The four of us tried to answer the questions the other kids asked, but found it hard to carry on several conversations at once. One of the kids had a copy of the local paper from. The colors of the fish looked like neon lights, in the water. After a while, Manish checked his watch and motioned for them to begin to return to shore. When they got out of the water, Jane could not stop talking about what she had seen. Her eyes were wide and excited, and she barely stopped to take a breath. On and on, she spoke excitedly, until Manish saw no other option. He stepped forward, cupped her face, and kissed her long and deep. Jane eagerly returned his kiss. She stepped forward. She glanced at Lisa’s face to see how she was feeling.Lisa looked up at Petra and knew that she was hesitating and didn’t want to flog her and so to make her feel better she nodded her head and grunted, unable to actually speak because of the gag.Petra saw the nod and the approval in Lisa’s eyes and steeling herself held the ends of the fronds in one hand and the handle in the other pulling the whole flogger straight just as Katrina had done and then in a downward motion lashed Lisa’s. She squirmed free, tossed back the covering on her bed, turned down the quilts and climbed in. She lay flat, hands linked below her high breasts, watching me from the corner of her eyes."What's your name?" I asked as I got out of my britches."Gloria," she said. "I'm from the lower counties. My whole family is loyal, every single one." Delaware?" I asked as I pulled my shirt over my head."If you wish," she said. "But it is the Duke of York's land." No longer," I said as I climbed in beside her,.
