The Photographer's Assistant
Part Nine
By Chris
It suddenly hit Sheila what Caroline was so worried and upset about. Now that she had her car back, the reason that she had been staying with Caroline was gone. That was the reason for her moving in but that had long been long forgotten as far as Sheila was concerned.
Sheila being herself replied with, "That depends..." leaving the rest unsaid as she held onto the suitcase.
"Depends on what?" Caroline asked stepping on into the bedroom.
"If you're offer to stay is still open, since my car is fixed and I don't have a reason for staying." Sheila told her.
"Of course it's still open, I want you to stay here with me," Caroline told her with her face showing her relief.
"Okay I'll stay," Sheila replied like it didn't matter to her either way. She then reached into the closet getting her other bag and began to carry both bags toward Caroline and the bedroom door.
"Where are you going with those?" Caroline asked pointing to the suitcases that Sheila was carrying.
"Oh I was just taking them back to the other bedroom to get them out of our way," Sheila said trying not to smile.
"Then you weren't getting ready to pack your clothes?" Caroline asked.
"No, though it was fun seeing that worried expression on that lovely face of yours... Tinker Bell," Sheila said walking around Caroline and out the door.
"You knew how worried I was and you let me keep worrying," Caroline asked with the tone of her voice indicating that she was becoming angry with her.
"Pretty much... Tinker Bell..." Sheila said entering the spare bedroom with the suitcases.
"Quit calling me that!" Caroline told her now obviously angry with her.
"What you going to do about it if I don't?" Sheila asked dropping the suitcases and hopping onto the bed and she began to pull her knit top off.
"I'm going to..." Caroline was saying when Sheila got her top off, seeing Caroline now standing in the doorway.
"Going to what?" Sheila said reaching back to unhook her bra. "Fuck me with your big bad cock?"
"Oh god..." Caroline gasped just standing there.
Sheila stood up on the bed putting her hands to her jeans undoing the button and unzipping them as Caroline watched. She pushed her jeans along with her panties down to her ankles. She sat down so that she could finish getting her jeans, panties and socks off.
"Get your clothes off and come and make love to me," Sheila said lying back with her head on the pillow while slowly spreading her legs for Caroline to see.
"My pussy is already getting wet for you darling," Sheila said softly reaching down to caress her pussy for Caroline to see.
"You want to taste me darling?" Sheila asked holding up her fingers showing the wetness. "I bet your pussy is getting wet already, show me darling..."
"Fuck..." Caroline said but that last request finally got Caroline moving.
Sheila watched as Caroline began to pull at her clothes, shedding them in record time. Her clothes were flying everywhere as they came off her body. Once naked she came to the bed, climbing up onto it and lying down on top of Sheila who felt Caroline pussy against hers and it was wet as well as her nipples being hard. She reached up putting her hands to Caroline's cheeks to pull them down so that she could kiss her. However Caroline pulled her head back stopping Sheila before she could give her that kiss.
"You know I'm still mad at you!" Caroline said before she lowered her head down giving Sheila that kiss.
Sheila put her hand to the back of Caroline's neck, holding her there as they opened their lips so that their tongues could kiss as their lips were doing. Sheila pulled her legs up so that their pussies were pushed together. She felt Caroline pushing her hips downward just as Sheila began to push up. They both moaned into the kiss with their tongues battling within Sheila's mouth. They kissed but for a moment before Caroline had to lift her head giving them both a chance to take in a deep breath.
Sheila got her breath back quicker and she pushed Caroline onto her back rolling on top of her. She gave Caroline several quick kisses to the lips and then her cheeks. She kissed her chin going down to her chest. She placed her hands to Caroline's breasts giving them a squeeze which pushed up Caroline's nipples so that she could give them kisses and gentle sucks. Caroline let out a few coos and moans as Sheila switched from one of her nipple to the other. She could feel Caroline rubbing her wet pussy against her stomach and Sheila wanted to taste that wet juicy pussy.
She slid lower giving kisses to Caroline's belly making her giggle a little but that stopped when Sheila kissed Caroline smooth skin just at the top cleft of the pussy. Sheila inhaled the rich aroma of Caroline's womanly scent just before she kissed Caroline's clit all so lightly causing Caroline to shutter and moan. Sheila moved on down where she began to lick Caroline's outer lips. She pressed the tip of her tongue inside of those lips getting a real moan from Caroline.
Caroline brought her knees up, stretching them out wide opening her pussy to Sheila's mouth. Sheila took full advantage of that opening, licking in deep sucking up those thick juices that Caroline produced. She slowly moved her tongue on down lower as Caroline raised her legs up. She teased the sensitive skin between Caroline pussy and her rosebud tasting the juices that had seeped down there from Caroline's pussy. She moved her tongue lower using the tip to tease Caroline's rosebud getting a load moan from her and feeling Caroline flex her ass as she teased it. Caroline was wigging her ass so much; Sheila had to grab a hold of her thighs to keep her tongue on Caroline's rosebud. She began to taste Caroline's juices running from her pussy and she had to drink those in. She moved her tongue back to Caroline's pussy attacking it with long deep strokes of her tongue. She went on up to Caroline's clit, sucking it into her mouth while using the tip of her tongue to tease it. Sheila heard Caroline let out a moan and felt her body stiffen as her orgasm rushed through her body.
Sheila gave a couple more sucks and teases to Caroline's clit before going down to lick up the girlcum flowing from her. Sheila kept licking until Caroline ran out of girlcum and she began to stir again. Sheila came back up in the bed lying on top of Caroline, kissing her cheeks and lips.
"I'm still mad at you," Caroline said though she had a big smile on her face.
"Well I may have something that will redeem myself in your eyes," Sheila told her giving Caroline a light kiss.
"What's that?' Caroline asked with curiosity in her eyes.
"You'll see," Sheila said giving Caroline a kiss before pulling herself up from Caroline's gasp.
"Where you going?" Caroline asked, "I want to make love to you some more."
"Oh we're not done here, not by a long shot." Caroline replied giving Caroline a sexy wink as she got up off the bed and hurrying out.
Sheila hurried into Caroline's bedroom going to their toy box. She pulled out the harness and then reached down to the dildo that they had been using but then she paused. She saw the larger one and thought for a second before switching to that one. She slipped it into the harness and then she stepped into it, tightening it down. She grabbed the bottle of lube, hurrying back out of the bedroom to her waiting lover.
She stopped just outside of the door, calling in to Caroline, "You ready for your surprise?"
"Yes, get your hinny in here!" Caroline demanded with her voice full of lust.
"I'm coming," Sheila said pausing for another second before stepping into the doorway. "Here I am," She said with a big grin on her face.
Sheila saw Caroline's eyes light up seeing her wearing the strap-on and what that meant however a moment later she saw Caroline recognizing which dildo she had chosen.
"You got the big one..." Caroline said as a worried look came to her face.
"I do and you're going to love it," Sheila said giving Caroline a reassuring smile however she still saw a bit of doubt in Caroline's facial expression.
However she knew Caroline's weakness and she was going to use it. "My big cock is going to fill your pussy, pushing deep inside of you. But first I'm going to eat your pussy until you're begging me to fuck you with this big cock." She said walking toward the bed while moving her hips so that the cock swayed making it look even bigger than it was.
"Oh my..." Caroline moaned opening her legs subconsciously.
"You liked having your pussy licked and fucked don't you?" Sheila asked just as she got to the side of the bed. Caroline could only nod but that wasn't enough for Sheila though she could see that Caroline was already getting wet again.
"Oh that's not good enough, you got to tell me what you want or you won't get it," Sheila told Caroline though there wasn't a chance of her not going through with it as she was just as hot as Caroline was at this point.
Sheila saw Caroline's face turning a rosy red and she knew then that Caroline was going to say what she asked. She saw Caroline bite her lower lip and then she took in a breath, "I want you to lick my pussy so bad and then fuck me with your great big cock." Caroline said covering her hands with her hands.
"I guess I'll have to now," Sheila said grinning at Caroline who still had her hands covering her face.
Sheila got onto the bed crawling in-between Caroline's legs that were wide open for her. Sheila put her hands to Caroline's thighs, leaning in to give a kiss to Caroline's clit, hearing Caroline moan. She gave Caroline's pussy a long slow lick up her slit stopping only when she got to her clit giving it another kiss.
"Damn baby you taste so good, I could eat you all day long," Sheila told her hearing Caroline gasp.
Sheila used her fingers to open Caroline's lips to tease Caroline's inner lips, this time leaving more saliva than licking up her juices that she really did love to taste. She moved back up to Caroline's clit teasing the sensitive nub until Caroline was moaning loudly.
She knew that Caroline was nearing an orgasm so she stopped letting Caroline cool down as she coated her dildo with some lube, not that it needed much as Caroline was so wet and ready. She put the bottle to the side, leaning forward putting her left hand to the bed beside of Caroline's chest. She saw Caroline's eyes open wide and she was back to biting her lower lip.
"Don't worry darling, it's only a little longer and wider than the one you're used to. I promise that you'll never want to use the small one again," Sheila said leaning on down to give Caroline a kiss forcing her to stop biting her lip. She also placed the cock against Caroline's pussy. She kept kissing her as she moved her hips up and down and using her right hand to guide the cock against Caroline's slit coating it with her juices.
When Caroline began to kiss her back, Sheila raised her hips up, placing the head against Caroline's entrance. She slowly lowered her hips pushing the cockhead inside of Caroline. She kept lowering her hips sliding her knees back so that her cock slowly filled Caroline's pussy. She heard Caroline moaning into the kiss. Sheila kept going until she had to take her hand away and her hips came into contact with Caroline's hips.
"How does it feel?" Sheila asked giving Caroline another kiss.
"Full... but nice... very nice," Caroline said while her cheeks glowed brightly.
"Now for that fucking I promised you," Sheila said seeing Caroline blush again.
Sheila felt Caroline bring her legs up and her heels touching the back of her tights. This told Sheila that Caroline was ready to begin fucking so she raised her hips up a couple inches pulling against Caroline's lips and then pushing back in just as slowly. She got a moan from Caroline but also a smile that she was enjoying the larger cock.
Sheila brought her hips up again, pushing back in slowly getting into a nice slow rhythm. She kept giving Caroline kisses to her lips and cheeks as she got Caroline heated up. When she felt Caroline to start move her hips into each stroke, Sheila began to fuck her harder and faster. She pushed her hips in deeper and harder getting grunts from Caroline. She felt Caroline's nails digging into her back and she knew that she had her enjoying the fucking. She worked her hips harder feeling her body beginning to sweat as well as Caroline's. She saw Caroline's brow begin to sweat and she kissed the sweat off as she worked her hips harder. She was really fucking Caroline hard now and Caroline seemed to want more pulling Sheila into her body.
"My cock is fucking you hard now baby, it's going in deep in that sweet pussy of yours," Sheila told Caroline getting a real moan from Caroline hearing that dirty talk.
"Fuck me back baby, use those hips to get my cock deeper into your wet pussy," Sheila told Caroline who answered with some inaudible words. However Caroline did push her hips up harder gripping harder with her legs.
"Cum for me baby, soak my cock with your girlcum, I'm going to fuck you so fucking hard to make you cum!" Sheila told Caroline as she worked her hips even harder.
It was only a moment later that she heard Caroline gasp and her body stiffened for a moment. Caroline's face turned even deep dark red as the orgasm she was having rushed through her body. Sheila gave her a few last hard deep strokes before she collapsed onto Caroline's heaving body that was having one orgasm after another until she went limp.
Sheila had to take a moment before she could get her breathing back to normal. Caroline was just beginning to come out of it when Sheila rose up pulling the cock she was wearing from Caroline's pussy.
"Noooo..." Caroline moaned subconsciously which brought a smile to Sheila's face.
Sheila quickly took off the harness laying it to the other side of Caroline's body before she lay in beside of Caroline. She kissed Caroline's cheeks and then her lips just as Caroline were coming out of her orgasm.
"So did you like the bigger dildo?' Sheila asked knowing the answer that Caroline would give.
Caroline's cheeks got a bit redder as she said, "Yea, it was nice."
"Wasn't too big?' Sheila asked teasing her.
"No it was perfect," Caroline replied with a shy smile.
"I could get a bigger one you know," Sheila said teasing her a little more.
"Noooo, that is plenty big enough," Caroline said blushing more.
"You sure?" Sheila asked with a grin.
"Yes! Now shut up," Caroline said turning into Sheila, pushing her onto her back.
"Now it's your turn," Caroline said before giving Sheila a kiss that she welcomed.
Sheila put her hand to the back of Caroline's head holding her to keep the kiss going not that Caroline was about to end it. Caroline slipped her tongue into Sheila's mouth with Sheila meeting it with her own tongue. Caroline kept the passionate kiss going until the both needed to take a deep breath.
"I'm going to make you feel so good," Caroline whispered lustfully before giving a kiss to Sheila's chin.
She slipped lower and Sheila raised her chin, feeling Caroline kissing her throat, once and then again.
"How?" Sheila whispered.
"How what?" Caroline asked raising her head up to look at her.
"How you going to make me feel good?" Sheila asked and she saw Caroline's face turn red.
"Sheila!" Caroline said with her face glowing.
"Tell me baby," Sheila told her putting her hands to Caroline's face so she wouldn't lower her head not that Caroline resisted or seemed about to.
"I'm..." Caroline said before she had to take a deep breath and she started her reply again, "I'm going to suck on your nipples, eat your pussy and then fuck you hard and long with my big cock." And then she let out a moan like just saying that caused her to have a mini orgasm.
"Oh god baby, I need your tongue on my pussy now, lick me!" Sheila moaned feeling her pussy getting soaked just from hearing Caroline say what she was going to do.
Sheila moved her hands to Caroline's shoulders, pushing them downwards. Caroline did get a kiss to each of her nipples before she crawled down between Sheila's legs. Sheila looked down, watching as Caroline put her hands to her thighs before lowering her head down. Sheila closed her eyes when she felt Caroline's tongue on her pussy.
"Oh yes baby, that feels great,' Sheila moaned feeling Caroline's tongue go between her lips.
She felt Caroline fingers on her lips opening them and pushing her tongue inside of her. Sheila moaned gripping the sheets in her hands and pushing her hips up against Caroline's mouth. Caroline licked her down to her rosebud giving it a few licks before going up to her clit to lick and suck on it. She groaned feeling an orgasm beginning to rise within her body. She knew she was just a few licks away from cumming when she felt nothing. Caroline's fingers and tongue suddenly left her pussy and clit leaving her desperate to cum.
"Nooo, come back,' Sheila said not opening her eyes, just desperate to cum.
Caroline didn't reply, but Sheila felt her moving around on the bed so she knew what she was doing. It took Caroline longer than Sheila would have liked however it was worth the wait. She soon felt the head of the large cock at her pussy.
"Fuck me baby," Sheila moaned, "Fuck me hard!"
"Oh I'm going to fuck you real hard and long!" Caroline said lustfully surprising Sheila more than a little but she liked it.
"Oh yes!" Sheila moaned feeling the cock slide into her pussy, stretching her lips up and filling her up.
Caroline kept pushing the cock inside of her until Sheila felt Caroline lying on top of her. She felt Caroline kissing her as the cock moved outward and came back inside of her. Sheila let out a moan into the kiss as she brought her knees up so that the cock would go in even deeper. Caroline pulled back out, pushing her hips back in so that the cock went in deep. Sheila gripped Caroline's upper arms as she felt Caroline begin to get into a nice rhythm in her fucking.
Caroline began to kiss her face and lips lightly as she fucked her. Sheila loved feeling the larger cock going in and out of her pussy and feeling Caroline's soft body lying on top of her. Sheila used her hips to push back on each stroke of the cock that Caroline was using. She had already been close to an orgasm so it didn't take much for Caroline to get her back there and then push her over the top. She felt her pussy squeezing down on the big hard cock going in and out of her. She let out a moan and was lost in her orgasm.
When she came out of her orgasm, Caroline was kissing her lips and face and the big cock was still buried deep in her pussy. Caroline raised her head giving her a grin and then Sheila felt Caroline lift her hips only to push them back down driving the cock back into her pussy.
"Ohhhh..." Sheila moaned bring her knees back up and gripping Caroline's shoulders as she began to fuck her again. This time she didn't start slow but instead she began to fuck her hard and fast.
Sheila felt her sensitive clit get even more sensitive. She felt the sweat from both of their bodies mixing together making it feel all that more erotic. This time Sheila moved her hips up and down so that the cock moved within her but also caused the base to rub against Caroline's clit.
"Cum with me baby, I want us to cum together,' Sheila moaned as she moved her hands to Caroline's asscheeks while barely reaching them she was able to pull against them getting more friction for both of them as Caroline continued to fuck her using fast hard strokes. They were both panting trying to keep their breathing up with their fucking. The sounds of their fucking echoed around the small bedroom and their grunting only added to that. The hard fucking continued for a few more moments before Sheila felt herself nearing another orgasm and she needed Caroline to cum too,
"Oh god, your big cock feels so great in my pussy; you're driving it so deep. Fuck me hard!" Sheila said as she pressed a finger against Caroline's rosebud. "Cum baby, soak me with your pussy juices!"
Caroline groaned as she stiffened and pushed the cock in even deeper. That was all it took for Sheila as she felt her clit explode and her orgasm wash over her. She felt her body relax losing her grip on Caroline's asscheeks and she felt Caroline's body collapse onto her.
When Sheila came back to life, Caroline was still lying on top of her and the cock was still deep in her pussy. She gave a few kisses to Caroline's face using her hands to caress Caroline's back as she too began to stir. Sheila rolled Caroline onto her back going with her. She lifted herself off of the cock feeling an empty feeling as she did so. She began to loosen the straps of the harness and she saw Caroline's hands working the other side. She looked up and Caroline getting a smile from her. They got the harness off of her and Sheila lay back down beside of Caroline pulling her in close so that they could cuddle. Sheila gave her a few kisses before she lay in close and then both closed their eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Sheila woke after a couple of hours; she looked over at Caroline who was sleeping so peacefully. She leaned over to give a light kiss to her cheek before slipping out of the bed. She got the harness and dildo, taking them to the bathroom to wash. She peed and then freshened herself up, going from there to Caroline's bedroom to find something to wear. She went to the dresser to get a clean pair of panties only to find that she had gone to the wrong side of the dresser.
She started to push it back in when she realized that there was something strange about what she was looking upon. All the panties in the drawer were plain white panties. They were some with writing on them or maybe trimmed in a different color but all basically white. Now they were all expensive brands and finely made but nothing but white. She knew that she shouldn't snoop but she couldn't help herself so she pulled the next drawer out to find Caroline's bras and they were just like the bras, all white cotton, different styles and expensive but still white cotton. She pulled out the bottom drawer to find some nylon bras and panties all just stuffed together unlike the cotton panties and bras that were all folded and neatly stacked.
She went to her drawer and got a pair of panties, picking out an old cotton pair that she liked to wear when she wasn't going out. As she got dressed, she thought about Caroline's panties and bras realizing that all the times that she had seen Caroline in just her panties and bras, they were always white cotton. She had never thought about that before but now she had to figure out why Caroline would only wear white cotton undergarments.
She went on out to the kitchen grabbing an apple to eat and then she went to her computer to do the class work that she should have spent the weekend working on. But like always, she spent a few minutes looking at some of her photographs. That was her life and she couldn't do any work until she had looked through a few trying to see how she might have improved on them if she had took them at a different angle of different light exposure.
She looked through a few before coming upon the picture that she had taken the day that she first met Caroline. She wondered if she was wearing cotton that day or some of the nylon ones she had hidden away. She had to smile as she thought about what she was wearing that day under her clothes. Then her mind went back to the first day that she saw Caroline in her panties. Those white cotton panties that framed her ass so nicely. Then it hit her, she had told Caroline about seeing her in those panties and how cute she was in them. Caroline had obviously decided then and there to only wear white cotton panties and bras.
Having come to this conclusion, Sheila had a real dilemma. She could ask Caroline about this to see if she was correct thus putting Caroline on the spot. If she did it just for her then Caroline would be trying to figure out what to say. She really didn't know what to do, ask her or just be quiet about it.
"What you thinking so hard about?" she heard Caroline ask from her right side.
"What?" Sheila asked looking up at Caroline not knowing that she was standing there until she spoke.
"You've been staring at your computer for the last couple of minutes, not moving nor doing anything on it, so you must have been thinking about something important. What was it?" Caroline said smiling and placing her hand upon her shoulder.
Sheila decided that the best policy was honesty, well honesty mixed with a lie, "I was thinking about the day I took this picture and how this very beautiful woman came over and how I was undressing her with my eyes wondering how I could ever get her into my bed," Sheila said with a mischievous grin.
"No you weren't, you thought I just a dumb freshman who didn't know better than to interrupt a genius when she was working," Caroline said with a knowing smile.
"No I wasn't," Sheila said turning Caroline around and pulling her down onto her lap.
"Yes you were, now be honest," Caroline said.
"Okay I did think you were being a pain and a bit rude coming over while I was trying to work," Sheila said getting a knowing smile from Caroline. "However I also thought that you were cute."
"Really?" Caroline asked.
"Yes really," Sheila said but then she had to be a bit mischievous, "Of course if I knew then how much a pain in my ass you'd become I would have told you to scram."
"Sheila!" Caroline said pouting and hitting her on the arm.
"Hey you told me to be honest," Sheila said.
Caroline was about to protest when Sheila put her right hand to the back of her head bringing it in so that she could kiss her. She gave her a light but long kiss not stopping until she felt Caroline relaxing, giving into the kiss.
As the kiss ended, Caroline stated, "For that I'm going to be an even bigger pain in your bum." She then put her arms around Sheila's shoulders leaning in to give her a longer, passionate kiss.
"Now get back to work," Caroline pronounced after the kiss, getting up and heading into the kitchen.
Sheila smiled after her knowing that she ended up being selfish not asking Caroline about those damn panties, she did love seeing her in them which always reminded her of that first time she saw Caroline in them, standing there with her back to her wearing only those tight white panties that framed her ass so beautifully; that imagine was seared into her brain and soul.
Sheila figured that Caroline would be nervous about meeting her parents but Monday she was amazingly calm. It was like any other week, they came home to eat, do some school work and since her period came so instead of making love before sleeping they made do with just kissing and cuddling, not that either of them minded and Caroline's period would follow in a day or two anyway.
However Tuesday was a different matter all together. When she arrived home a little after two, Caroline was already home which was very unusual. Sheila's first thought was that maybe Caroline was feeling bad, sometimes she would get cramps when she period started and she feared that this was one of those times. However Caroline wasn't lying on the bed in pain, it was full of Caroline's clothes as well as lots of her clothes.
"Good I'm glad your home, what do I need to pack for us, dress clothes or casual clothes?" Caroline asked and not letting Sheila answer she went on, "I was thinking maybe some of both just to be prepared."
"Caroline, we're just going to be there two nights, I have to work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday remember?" Sheila said trying not to laugh at the tizzy that Caroline had worked herself into.
"I know but we need to have traveling clothes, clothes for Wednesday night and then maybe dressier clothes for Thanksgiving Dinner." Caroline told her picking up a dress and putting it right back down as if it wasn't dressy enough.
Just as Caroline was about to pick up another dress, Sheila came over to her, taking her hands in hers, "I obviously haven't told you enough about my parents have I?" Sheila stated.
"What do you mean?" Caroline of course asked.
"If it was up to my father, you, I and my mother would be in old cotton gowns and he would be in his boxers and tee shirt as we sat down for Thanksgivings dinner." Sheila said seriously.
Sheila saw the corners of Caroline's mouth turn upwards and she giggled as she was obviously picturing this scene in her head, "You're teasing me." She said.
"A little bit but not much, my father really would do that if my mother allowed him to. But the point is that we are very casual and the only time we dress up is for funerals or weddings. The rest of the time we wear jeans or shorts, depending on the season. My father works in the maintenance department at a factory so he wears a uniform and my mother part time at a daycare facility so she dresses in clothes that kids can't ruin. You see where I'm going with this?" Sheila said.
"Yea, anything fancy is out," Caroline said slightly disappointed. But then she got this look in her eyes that immediately had Sheila worried.
"What are you thinking?" Sheila asked fearing the worse.
"We're going to wear a dress, a casual one, maybe a sun dress or something for Thanksgiving dinner." Caroline declared.
"I hate wearing dresses and besides I don't have any here," Sheila said hoping to quell Caroline's thinking.
"You will have, we're going shopping," Caroline said grabbing her hand and pulling her toward the bedroom door.
"I got a test tomorrow, I need to study and besides I can wear my good jeans," Sheila said as she was propelled past the bedroom door.
"We won't be gone long, I promise." Caroline told her as she went toward the living room and thus the front door.
"Caroline, I won't wear a dress!" Sheila finally said pulling her hand away.
The first thing that Sheila saw was the hurt in Caroline's eyes which made her feel about six inches tall. "Please I want to make a good impression on your parents," Caroline told her with very sad eyes.
"Shit! Don't look at me that way..." Sheila said seeing the hope arise in Caroline's eyes. "Oh well you'll make my mother happy to see me in a dress."
"Thank you!" Caroline said giving her a hug and a kiss.
"You pick out anything that looks even halfway fancy or expensive and the deal's off. I'll go in my jeans." Sheila warned her.
Caroline actually made good on both of her promises, she picked out a floral dress for both of them, nothing fancy but did have lots of color and she got her home within a couple of hours, thus plenty of time to study for her test that Sheila didn't really need to study long for. She was just using that as an excuse to keep from going shopping which obviously didn't work. Anyway as she studied, Caroline packed and repacked for both of them.
That evening as they cuddled, Caroline made her promise to come right home after her class as she wanted to get an early start. Sheila tried to convince her that they didn't need to hurry as her mother wouldn't be home until two so they had plenty of time but Caroline insisted that she wanted to see where Caroline grew up and get a tour of Sheila's small hometown. It wasn't worth arguing over so Sheila gave in and after letting Caroline talk for a while longer, she finally got her to go to sleep.
Sheila actually got home a few minutes before Caroline did, however when Caroline did arrive she was full of energy and had Sheila rushing around trying to get everything. Sheila just knew that she was forgetting something important but Caroline was in such a tizzy that Sheila couldn't remember what it was, that is until they got to the front door.
"Shit I knew I was forgetting something!" Sheila said dropping her overnight bag and rushing to the bathroom attached to Caroline's bedroom.
"What did you forget?" Caroline asked entering the bedroom right behind her.
"The laundry," Sheila said entering the bathroom pulling the clothes from the laundry hamper.
"Let the hotel laundry do it. We don't need to take it." Caroline said.
"My mother thinks she has to do my laundry when I come home. I forgot it once and my mother acted like she was mad at me all weekend. Confused the hell out of me until my father pulled me aside and told me that since I had left my mother felt like I didn't need her anymore. I never forgot my laundry again." Sheila said with a smile.
"Oh in that case, we can't forget the laundry." Caroline said getting one of the hotel laundry bags to put the dirty clothes into.
"What about my clothes, should we pull them out?" Caroline asked.
Sheila had to stop for a second and think on that one, "Oh hell, they'll probably make her even happier." Sheila said getting a soft smile from Caroline, "Oh and don't forget the sheets, can't let her not wash those."
So they finally made it out the door with Sheila carrying the laundry and Caroline now carrying their bags. They got the car packed and they were off heading west. Sheila could see that Caroline was both excited and nervous about meeting her parents. Sheila kept telling Caroline that she didn't need to try to impress her parents, all she had to do was to be herself and her parents take right to her.
They were about an hour into the two hour trip before Caroline asked the question that she figured she would ask as the answer would determine how worried Caroline figured she should be.
"When did you tell your parents that you were gay?" Caroline asked after turning the CD that they were listening to down low.
"It was the summer after my junior year of high school," Sheila answered leaving it at that.
Caroline waited for a moment before she said, "Sheila!"
"What?" Sheila asked smiling though not daring to look over at Caroline.
"How did they take it?" Caroline asked.
"All things considered they took it pretty well," Sheila said glancing over at Caroline's whose face was now turning red from frustration.
"I'm going to kill you one of these days," Caroline said in frustration.
Sheila had to laugh getting a glare from Caroline, "I'm sorry," she said reaching to put her hand on Caroline's hand giving it a squeeze.
"I knew relatively early that I was gay but I didn't have the courage to tell my parents until after I discovered my love of photography. That gave me the self confidence to tell my mom how I felt inside. So after a week of worrying and having conversations with myself, I sat my mother down and had this whole speech planned but once I looked into my mother's eyes, I couldn't remember a single word of my speech so I just said 'I'm Gay'" Sheila said smiling as she remembered that moment.
"And?" Caroline asked.
"She took it pretty good, only asking me if I was sure and I said that I was. She sat back and after a moment, she just said okay." Sheila said with her mind on that faithful day.
"So that was it?" Caroline asked.
"No, I could see that it bothered her for a while and she obviously told my father and things were a bit strained for a while and I began to fear that my parents would reject me so when my mother came home one day a couple of weeks later I met her at the door and asked her if she still loved me. I think the question caught her off guard but also put her on the spot. When I saw tears in her eyes I feared the worst but then I found myself in the tightest hug that I have ever had. My mother pulled back after a moment telling me "Honey you're my child and no matter what, I'll always love you more than life itself" which of course got me crying so we stood there in the open door hugging each other and crying our eyes out." Sheila said feeling her eyes becoming moist.
She looked over at Caroline who was crying big tears, not even bothering to wipe them off. Sheila reached back over to grasp her hand giving it a squeeze. "I wish your mom was my mom," Caroline said through her tears.
"I don't," Sheila told her.
"Why not?" Caroline asked.
"Because then you'd be my sister and while I may be a little kinky I'm not that kinky," Sheila said.
"Oh god Sheila I didn't mean it that way!" Caroline said.
Sheila laughed, "I know, I was teasing you and besides I don't want to spend the next hour crying with you." Sheila told her getting a laugh from Caroline and easing the tension in the car.
"But you know what I meant by wanting your mother as my mother?" Caroline asked.
"Yea I knew what you meant but still my answer is the same," Sheila told her and then waiting of the question that quickly came.
"Why, don't you want me to have a great mom like you did?" Caroline asked showing her hurt.
"I'm sorry that your parents are like they are but if you had grown up like me, we would not have met or if we did then maybe we wouldn't have hit it off like we have. Nanny Kay was a great mom too; she gave you all the love that you needed. She was your mom and you were her child." Sheila said.
"Oh..." Caroline said sitting back in her seat thinking that over. "You know I hate it when you leave me with no argument."
"Hey it doesn't happen too often," Sheila said laughing a bit while admitting the truth as it really didn't.
"And it won't happen often either!" Caroline said before letting out a big laugh.
The rest of their road trip was a bit more lighthearted talking about Sheila's childhood and any meanness that she had gotten into. Once in town, Sheila drove by her high school and through the rest of the small town that she grew up in. When they got to Sheila's home, it was Sheila feeling nervous. She could only hope that Caroline wouldn't look down at her parent's small home but that was a false fear as Caroline loved how much it felt like a real home, a home that had been lived it and wasn't just a showcase home like the mansion she grew up in. They put their bags in Sheila's old bedroom and Sheila took the laundry bag into the laundry room sitting it in front of the washer where her mother would be sure to see it.
When she came back, she saw Caroline sitting on her double size bed in the small bedroom. "Kind of small isn't it?" Sheila stated coming over to sit down beside of her.
"Yea but it's cozy, it's nice," Caroline told her.
"You're being nice," Sheila said with a smile.
"Well it is smaller than I'm used to but I do like it. Are these pictures ones you took?" Caroline asked getting up to look at some of them.
"Yea they're my best work..." Sheila told her as she went to join her at the picture that she had taken of an old house.
"Well I like them and this old house is beautiful," Caroline told her.
"The house is but not the photo, I should have taken it from more of an angle, see how these shadows hide the..." Sheila was saying when she felt Caroline finger on her lips hushing her.
"Hush... you were just learning to take photos and besides I like the shadows," Caroline told her making Sheila smile.
"You like all my photos," Sheila said but not before kissing Caroline's finger.
"True," Caroline replied grinning. "Now tell me about the rest of the photos. I noticed that there are a lot in the living room."
"Yea mom spends half of her paychecks framing my photos," Sheila said.
"Well they're worth framing," Caroline said and then pointing to the next picture, "And this one?"
Sheila set about telling Caroline about each one, where they were taken and if it was a photo of a person, she told her who it was. Mostly those were relatives or of her parents. They slowly made their way to the living room where most of her better pictures were posted as well as one her mom had them go get made, it was the weekend before she went off to college.
"You look a lot like your mom," Caroline stated and she did as they were both slim with brown hair though her mom's hair was beginning to show signs of graying.
"Yea I guess I do, but my mom says that I got all my personality from my father," Sheila said with a laugh pointing to her father who also was slim but with black hair also with just a touch of grey. He was also tall that Sheila got from him as she was about three inches taller than her mom.
"How so?" Caroline had to ask.
"I don't know, I guess we're both a bit stubborn, I think that is what she is talking about." Sheila said.
"I'll tell you when we leave who you're like," Caroline proclaimed with a grin.
"This I got to see," Sheila said with a laugh.
"You got any baby pictures I can see?" Caroline asked.
"I knew sooner or later you were going to ask to see those," Sheila said with a laugh.
"They're in the den, come on," Sheila said taking Caroline's hand leading her to the room that her father had built onto the house to give them a place that that as he said they could actually live in as her mother liked to keep the living room spotless for guests.
"Have a seat on the couch," Sheila told her going to the bookshelf to pull a couple of the family photo albums down. Even though a lot of her early teens and teenage pictures were taken with a digital camera, her mother insisted on getting regular copies made to put into an album.
Sheila settled in beside of Caroline and was about to open the first book when she heard her mother say, "Don't you dare open that book, I want to show Caroline those pictures."
They both jumped but it was Sheila who said what was probably on both of their minds, "Oh shit you scared the hell out of me!"
"Come and give your mom a hug and then we'll talk about your choice of words," her mom said.
"Well it's your fault, you shouldn't have scared us like that sneaking in," Sheila said in her defense as she got up going to her mom for a long heartfelt hug and getting a kiss on the cheek from her mom.
"Mom this is Caroline," Sheila said introducing Caroline to her mom.
"It's very nice to meet you Mrs. Watson and thank you for inviting me for Thanksgiving," Caroline said very formally Sheila noted. She knew her mom would make Caroline feel at home real quick and be less formal.
"Now you may call me mom or Roberta but you're not allowed to call me Mrs. Watson," her mom said just before giving Caroline a hug.
Sheila saw the surprised expression on Caroline's face and that she was blushing a little but that was her mom and Caroline just as well get used to her as she knew she would.
"So what do you want to call me?" her mom asked.
"Ah... Mom?" Caroline asked.
"I would love that," her mom said giving Caroline a motherly smile that made Caroline relax a little that Sheila could see.
"You're here early, I didn't expect you until this afternoon," mom said to Sheila.
"Yea, someone made sure that we left early," Sheila said knowing that she was making Caroline blush and getting a dirty look from Caroline.
"Now quit picking on this poor girl," Her mother admonished her. And then to Caroline she said, "I just glad that my girl finally found someone she liked enough to bring home."
Sheila saw that Caroline was blushing at the compliment that was about to get worse, "I bet it was that beautiful auburn hair with those curls that caught her eye wasn't it," She told her.
"I... I don't know," Caroline said now blushing head to toe.
Sheila decided to come to Caroline's rescue, "Now mom, you're embarrassing poor Caroline."
"Oh I'm sorry," her mom said giving Caroline a motherly smile. "Let's go to the kitchen and put a pot of coffee on, I'm dying to get to know Caroline and her me."
They went on into the kitchen with Sheila coming up to Caroline giving her hand a quick squeeze and a reassuring smile. Her mom and Caroline sat at the kitchen table as Sheila did her daughterly duties and got the coffee pot going.
"So tell me about your family," Mom asked innocently of Caroline. Sheila quickly turned around giving her mom a look that she hoped told her not to go there.
"It's okay, I don't mind." Caroline stated. "My family is a bit different than most."
"A lot different," Sheila said before she could think getting a dirty look from her mom.
"It's okay, they are," Caroline said to Sheila's mom.
Caroline then set about telling Sheila's mom about her parents and brother, but mostly she talked about Nanny Kay who in any sense of the word was her real mom.
"That is definitely an interesting childhood but I can see that Nanny Kay was a true lady and she did a great job raising such a lovely young woman," Sheila mom stated while reaching over and giving Caroline's hand a squeeze.
"I don't know I have seen a lot of areas that she could have done a better job at," Sheila said pausing for a moment while her mom gave her a look that in her earlier years would mean that she was about to get her tail busted. "Like learning to mind her own business and not doing things without asking first."
"Sheila, that isn't nice,!" her mom started looking like she was going to bust her ass even though she was twenty-one and about to turn twenty-two.
"It's okay mom, we'll get her back when you start telling me about Sheila when she was little as I'm sure that she was a terror as a child." Caroline told Sheila's mom giving her a mischievous grin.
"Oh that she was, she was indeed," her mom stated.
"I forgot to tell you mom, any talk about my childhood is off limits while Caroline is here." Sheila said seriously.
"In your dreams child," her mom said giving Sheila a smile before they all laughed.
She then turned to Caroline and began to tell her some stories about Sheila when she was a little girl and how much a little demon she really was. Sheila had heard all these stories before but they took on a new importance with someone she cared about listening to them and enjoying every word that her mom said. Sheila told Caroline that her mother was making up most of the stories which got a laugh from Caroline and a sharp denial from her mom.
They hadn't gotten too far into the stories before Sheila mom moved to the stove so that she could start dinner. Sheila and Caroline helped her as much as her mom would allow, mostly they stayed out of the way and listened to her mother talk. Around four-thirty they heard the front door open and then heavy footsteps coming into the house.
"What's for dinner?" they heard Sheila's father ask.
"Skunk stew," her mother answered straight faced. Caroline looked over at her and Sheila could only shrug her shoulders. She didn't have a clue as to what this was about.
"Mmmmm... sounds good," he said from the living room as he went through the house.
"Hurry up and shower, your daughter and Caroline is here." Her mother told him.
"Be there in a jiffy," they heard him say.
"Okay mom what was that all about?" Sheila had to ask after she was sure that her father was out of hearing range.
Her mother laughed, "Well a while back I guess I was having a bad day and I got a little pissed that the first thing he always asked about was what was for dinner and not how my day was so I told him that we were having opossum steaks and he just said ok and went on. I'm not sure when he realized what I had say but when he came into the kitchen, he had this funny look on his face and he immediately asked how I was doing and if I was ok."
"I guess Dad got the point." Sheila stated.
"Yea," she said with a smile, "Now it has become a game but I'm having trouble thinking of off the wall things to tell him. I think I've begun to repeat myself."
"Well I think it's sweet," Caroline said with a big smile.
"You would," Sheila said to Caroline and then to her mom, "she's a romantic at heart."
"You could learn something from her, you know," Her mother told her. "There's something to be said for romance, you know."
Caroline grinned sticking her tongue out at her which Sheila tried to grab. "Since when did you become a romantic, mom?" Sheila had to ask.
Her mom turned around to face her, "Child, I've always been a romantic."
"Oh," Sheila said at a lost to say anything else as she had never thought about her mom being anything other than a mom. She suddenly realized that under that cloak of motherhood was a woman with a romantic heart.
"Well like I said, I think it's sweet," Caroline said showing a soft smile.
"Can we talk about something else, anything else?" Sheila asked.
"What's the matter, you don't like thinking about your old mom being romantic, you know your father knew how to turn on the charm in his younger days and I think he's beginning to get that back," her mom said giving her a knowing smile.
"Oh god you're killing me!" Sheila said covering her face with her hands making both her mother and Caroline laugh.
After a moment she too had to laugh and only then was she able to get the subject changed now that she had a new appreciation of her mother and most probably and new relationship with her and her father too for that matter.
"So how's that skunk stew coming?" Sheila's father asked as he came into the kitchen going first to his wife to give her a kiss on her offered cheek, also something new Sheila noted.
"Just fine, should be ready in a jiff." She told him.
He then turned to the table, "Any you must be Sweet Caroline that our Sheila has told us all about," he said.
"I am," Caroline said standing up and offering her hand that he took. 'It's so nice to meet you Mr. Watson."
"The pleasure is all mine," he replied with a smile.
"If I'm mom then he's dad," Sheila mom said to Caroline giving her another one of her caring smiles.
"Yes please call me dad," Sheila's father immediately said.
"What about me, don't I even get a hello or better yet a hug?" Sheila asked getting up from the table.
"Oh I was just about to get to you," he said with a grin. Sheila moved around the table to give her father a hug and a kiss to the cheek.
"It's nice to have you home," he said sincerely as he hugged her tightly.
"It's nice to be home, dad," Sheila replied releasing him.
"Now would you be a dear and make me a cup of coffee while I get to know Caroline and more importantly get out of your mother's way." He said with a grin getting a mean look from Sheila's mom that turned into a smile.
Once Caroline and her father had left the kitchen Sheila asked "When did he start getting so grey?"
"I believe it was the day you turned thirteen and started to act like a moody teenager," her mom said with a smile.
"Mom, I'm serious!" she said.
"Honey he's getting older, we both are but don't worry we'll be around for a while longer." She said.
"I know, I guess I've never really noticed before," Sheila said as much to herself as to her mom.
Her mom came over to her taking her by the shoulders turning her so that they were facing each other, "Maybe it's because you've grown up and become an adult on us. You're childhood is gone dear and maybe that girl in there has something to do with it."
"Maybe..." Sheila said not thinking about it before but now she was thinking of a lot of things that she didn't before.
"Is it serious?" her mom asked as she went back to the stove.
"Is what serious?" Sheila asked knowing what her mom was asking but needing a moment to think about her answer.
"You and Caroline, she does seem sweet, almost innocent like." She said.
"I don't know..." Sheila said pausing for a moment, "It just since I've met her, I don't seem to have control over anything anymore. You know I can be a control freak but with Caroline, I'm not sure I have control over anything."
"Oh god she has gotten under your skin, good for her," her mom said giving her a knowing smile.
"What about me?" Sheila asked.
Again her mother came over to her giving her a kiss on the forehead, "It's even better for you my child."
When she got to the den with her father's cup of coffee, her father was talking about some machine that he had been working on all day and Caroline's was listening with rap attention like she was understanding every word though she was sure that Caroline didn't understand the details of what he was saying only that he had a hard time getting it to run.
So they talked about her father's work and how school was going for both of them. He showed how interested he was in how they were both doing. But what Sheila appreciated most was how he had accepted Caroline right off treating her like she was his daughter too.
At dinner, they all sat at the kitchen table, talking as they ate their skunk stew, also known as beef stew in the rest of the world. The conversation centered on Caroline as Sheila's parents wanted her to feel welcomed and they also wanted to know more about the girl that their daughter brought home for them to meet.
Once dinner was done, Caroline insisted on helping Sheila's mom clean up the kitchen giving Sheila some time to talk to her dad. He asked about how things were going and only asked a few questions about Caroline however Sheila knew they were important questions. Sheila also noted that it seemed to take Caroline and her mom a long time to put the dishes onto wash and put up the leftovers, not that there was a lot left. They did eventually come into the den both laughing about something. Sheila figured that it might be something about her but that was fine as long as her mom liked Caroline.
It wasn't until a little later that Sheila's mom picked up the photo albums that had been sitting on the coffee table. She made Caroline sit between her and Sheila's father, putting the photo album into Caroline's lap however it was Sheila's mom who was going to turn the pages. Sheila moved in behind the couch putting her hands on Caroline's shoulders while looking over her right shoulder. Her mother opened the book and the first picture was of her holding her newborn daughter just after she was born. Then there was one of the proud papa holding his daughter for the first time. Sheila looked over at her father to see him smiling proudly and not the nervous scared look that he had in the picture.
Even though her parents had tried several years to have a baby going through several miscarriages before her mom was able to take her to term. So even though they were both in their early thirties when she was born, they looked like scared young parents and not the older parents that they were. Her mom told Caroline all about how hard it was to get Sheila into the world including the fact that when it was time to give birth, Sheila decided that she didn't want to come into the world without a fight. Even though she knew all about this, she was old and mature enough now to appreciate what her mother and father for that matter went through to bring her into the world.
A few pages later her mother came to the page that Sheila had been waiting for. It was her mother's favorite picture of her, so much so that she had it enlarged to fill the whole page.
"Oh that's so cute..." Caroline said of the picture of Sheila lying naked on her belly on a towel. "...and look at how Sheila is grinning."
"That's because she's peeing on the towel." Her mom said with a big smile.
"I was not; she's just telling you that!" Sheila protested loudly.
"Where you there?" her mother asked turning her head and looking back at her daughter.
"Yes, see there I am," Sheila said reaching over Caroline's shoulder to point at herself in the photo.
"She was peeing, soaked that towel good too," her father told Caroline ignoring Sheila's protests.
"I believe you, that grin tells it all, she was mischievous even back then," Caroline said to Sheila's mom.
"Don't tell me you're taking their side and not mine," Sheila said like she was cut to the core.
"Yep," Caroline replied giving Sheila a grin.
"Traitor!" Sheila said before laughing.
And so it went as they moved through her toddler and grade school years. The second book covered her middle school and then her teenage years. There were less pictures here as by then she had gotten her first camera from her father and was taking the pictures thus not being in as many. Even though she was being picked on, it was fun for Sheila as it meant that her parents had accepted Caroline and for her to truly know that her parents accepted her being gay.
They talked for a while but soon her mother declared that it was time for bed taking her clue, Sheila was sure, from the yawns that her father tried to stop but was unable to do. They took turns in the bathroom with Caroline going first seeing how she was the guest. Sheila made sure that she went last and when she came out of the bathroom she didn't go directly to her old bedroom where Caroline was waiting but to her parents' bedroom.
She knocked on the open door getting her mother's attention who was just sitting down on the bed and her father already under the covers but still awake. "Can I talk to you two a moment?" she asked.
"Sure honey, what do you need?" her mother asked.
Sheila came on into the bedroom, "I want to thank you both for accepting Caroline like you have and making her feel so welcome. She was so nervous coming here and I admit I was a little too." She said feeling the emotion come up from within her soul.
"Honey, you didn't have anything to worry about, we knew when you finally brought someone home, she would be special and she is." Her mother said getting up and going to her to give her a hug, a hug that Sheila sorely needed, not that she knew it at the time.
When her mother released her they both had tears in their eyes and to her surprise, her father had gotten out of bed and was beside her to give her a hug too, a shorter one but just as heartfelt and needed.
"I love you both, you know that..." Sheila said wiping the tears that were streaming from her eyes.
"And we love you too baby," her mother told her wiping the tears from Sheila's eyes and then giving her a kiss to the cheek.
"I know," Sheila said giving her mother and then her father a final hug. She turned to leave stopping at the door, "Oh Caroline has gotten dresses for us to wear for dinner tomorrow, and I don't want to hear any comments about me in a dress."
"We make no promises," her father said with a grin.
"Well I think we all should dress up a little tomorrow," her mother stated looking directly at her husband.
"I knew there was something about that girl I didn't like," her father said with a laugh.
"Hush dad, it won't hurt you to put on some slacks and that new shirt I bought you that you won't wear," her mother said fussing at him making Sheila smile.
Sheila turned again to go out and was just past the door when she heard her father say, "You were peeing when the picture was taken."
Sheila could only laugh feeling much better now, feeling like everything was going to be okay. Even the fact that her parents were allowing Caroline and her to sleep together though she knew if it was a boy that she had brought home, he would be sleeping on the couch. Being a lesbian did have a few advantages she thought smiling to herself.
"Are you okay?" Caroline asked her as soon as she came into her bedroom and had closed the door.
"Sure everything is fine, why you asking?" Sheila said not looking Caroline directly in the eyes but rather going to her suitcase to get her pajamas, ones that Caroline had given to her that matched the ones Caroline was wearing.
She didn't hear anything from Caroline until she felt her behind of her putting her hands on her shoulders turning her around. "Because you've been crying," Caroline said, and then she put her hands to her cheeks.
Sheila wanted to lie but with Caroline looking into her eyes, she couldn't. "I just had to say something to my parents." She said not offering anything more.
"About me?" Caroline asked.
Sheila smiled, "Yea I wanted to thank them for accepting you and making you feel so welcomed."
"And thank them for accepting your lifestyle," Caroline asked getting down to the root.
"Yes that too," Sheila said smiling knowing that caroline could read her so well.
Caroline gave her a soft kiss, "So did they like me?"
"Yes they did," Sheila said looking directly into Caroline's eyes to sure that she believed her.
"Good," Caroline said visibly relieved.
"Well that is until I told them that you're making me wear a dress tomorrow and my mom decided we all needed to dress up a little, my father said that he knew there was something he didn't like about you." Sheila said straight faced and then getting a frown from Caroline. Sheila could only hold it in for so long before she began to laugh.
"He was kidding," Sheila said giving Caroline a kiss to assure her that her father still liked her just as much as he did before.
That kiss led to another kiss and another before Sheila pulled away. "I think we need to get some sleep, tomorrow is going to be a busy day," Sheila said breathlessly.
"Yes it is," Caroline said obviously understanding why she didn't want to kissing to lead anywhere.
Caroline went over to the bed pulling the covers down. Slipping under them as Sheila undressed with her back to Caroline. Once she joined Caroline in bed, Caroline began to ask her about what Sheila's parents thought of her. Sheila knew this was coming and if their places were changed, she'd be asking the same questions. So Sheila patiently answered Caroline's questions trying her best to assure her that she had won her parents over. Sheila let this go on for a few minutes before she gave Caroline a kiss to hush her up so that they both could get some sleep.
End of Part Nine.
