                       - Part One- 
 
	".........And thank you so very much for coming."  
Sarah said as she shook hands with Mrs. Anderson. 
	As she closed the classroom door behind the 
woman, Sarah let out a sign of relief.  She thought Mrs. 
Anderson would never finish.  Saint Francis's Open House 
had ended almost a half hour ago, but Mrs. Anderson had to 
stay behind and go on and on about her precious little 
"kitten" and how Sarah should be spending more time 
showcasing her talents.  It could've been worse, she 
thought, Jim Anderson could've come along too. You 
couldn't get within five feet of that man without him trying 
to sell you a new insurance policy. 
	Quickly cleaning up after the departed parents, 
Sarah grabbed her coat and began to head down the 
corridor.  It had started raining about a half hour ago and 
most of the other teachers had already left.  If she hurried, 
she could still get home by 10:00. 
	"Sarah?"  Called a soft voice from across the hall. 
	Sarah turned around to find Sister Mary Theresa 
coming out of one of the adjacent classrooms.   
	"I thought you left already?"  The Sister asked. 
	"I would have,"  Sarah replied.  "But Mrs. Anderson 
managed to corner me before I could go and......." 
	"Say no more..."  Sister Theresa said as she held up 
her hand to interrupt her fellow teacher.  "I had her older 
girl Betty in my class a few years ago." 
	"Was she as bad back then?" 
	"Worse,"  Sister Theresa replied.  "I think maybe 
she's mellowing with age."  She added with a smile. 
	Both the smile and the laugh of the young Philippine 
Nun was contagious, Sarah couldn't help but  return it.  
When Sister Theresa suggested she have a cup of tea before 
she went, Sarah forgot all about her rush and agreed. 
	Sister Theresa had been Sarah's friend since he first 
day as a teacher, eight months ago.  Six years before, she 
had been Sarah's Math Teacher during the Nun's own first 
year at Saint Francis.  Part of the reason she had landed the 
plumb assignment at this prestigious school was  that she 
had been an honor graduate.  The fact that she had 
graduated with honors was partly due to the help Sister 
Theresa had given her that difficult senior year. 
	As they sipped tea in the now empty Teacher's 
Lounge, Sarah thoughts drifted back to that  troubled final 
year.  A late bloomer, Sarah had quickly earned the 
nickname "Plain Jane" McKenna from her classmates.  Try 
as she could, she just couldn't fit in.  Even as a senior,  
dates 
had been few and far in between.  Not  that Sarah really 
minded.  She had  never really been all that interested in 
guys anyway. They got in the way of her single minded 
determination to succeed. 
	Still, every girl wants to fit in. And it was because of 
such that Sarah took part in what she would always 
remember as the great shower peek show.  
	Sister Theresa was brand new at Saint Francis then, 
and having come from the Philippines, was considered 
something of a mystery.  The girls guessed  she  had to have 
been in her mid twenties , but looked about seventeen.  Her 
Order still wore the old style habits, so her body was 
covered from head to toe.  The obvious question was, what 
does a Nun look like under all that heavy clothing. 
	It had been Jenny Marinelli who had first come up 
with the idea. She'd discovered that  Sister Theresa was in 
the habit of using the shower in the girls locker room  after 
the last gym class every day. If they really wanted to sneak a 
peek, that was their chance. 
	So one Friday afternoon, they had snuck back into 
the locker room and done just that.  To their amazement, 
Sister Theresa looked like any other woman naked.  True, 
she was a little on the plump side, but after all, who said a 
Nun had to be skinny.	The crudest comment came from 
Jenny herself. 
	"Did you see the tits on her?"  She asked the other 
girls after they had moved to the safety of the school yard.  
"They had to at least been a 38D.  What a waste on a Nun." 
	The other girls had all agreed. 
	To Sarah, however, the experience had changed her 
life.  Several time after that she had found herself back in 
the locker room at the end of the day, sneaking another look 
at her teacher.  Her naked brown body stirred a strange 
longing within her and she began having forbidden dreams 
about the Nun. 
	As  senior year neared it's end, Sarah abruptly 
stopped her late afternoon visits.  In her mind she was now 
accepted three certainties.  First, that she wanted to be a 
teacher - nothing was as important as achieving that goal.  
The second was something she was sure that she would 
keep to herself  forever.  She was a lesbian, and she was in 
love with Sister Theresa. 
	"You seem a little distracted?"  Sister Theresa said 
as Sarah stared into empty space. 
	"Oh, sorry..."  She replied.  "It's just been a long 
day." 
	"How inconsiderate of me."  Theresa said.  "If it 
wasn't for me you'd be home by now.  Sister Catherine 
always said once I get to talking I loose all concept of 
time." 
	"It's all right, really."  Sarah said with a broad smile.  
"I really do enjoy your company.  As long as you brought 
her up, how is Sister Catherine?" 
	"She's doing fine," Theresa said as she cleared the 
table.  "She's all settled in at her new school and things are 
working out fine with her father." 
	Sister Mary Catherine had been Theresa's mentor 
since she had first come to Saint Francis.  In fact,  due to a 
shortage of rooms in the tiny convent, they had been 
roommates for the last six years.  She had recently been 
transferred to San Francisco at her own request to be closer 
to her ill father. 
	"I guess you must miss her."  Sarah said as she 
cleared the trash. 
	Sister Theresa hesitated for a moment and seemed to 
be thinking or something.  
	"Yes I do."  She finally answered. 
	 
	Sister Theresa was uncharacteristically quiet as  
umbrella's in hand they set off for the parking lot.  The 
stocky Nun seemed to be lost in memories, but had still 
insisted on seeing Sarah safely to her car. 
	  Saint Frances was twenty miles from town, and at 
this time of night the parking lots would be  deserted. 
	"Oh no!"  Sarah exclaimed as she reached her small 
blue escort and saw  to her dismay, the front driver's side 
tire was as flat as a pancake. 
"I don't even have a spare." 
	"We'll have to call from the office to see if we can 
get a  tow truck out here.  "Sister Theresa said as she bent 
down to examine the damage.

                       - Part Two-

	Fifteen minutes later, Sister Theresa emerged  from the Mother 

Superior's Office to find Sarah still  dripping in the waiting 
room.
	"I have good news and bad news."  She said  as she walked up 
to her.
	"Lets have the good new first."  Sarah said  as she shook with 

a slight chill.
	"Well I talked to Mr. Kelly down at the  garage and he said it 

would be no problem getting a  truck out here."
	"What's the bad news?"
	"He said it would be no problem first thing  tomorrow."
	"Oh no, what am I going to do."
	"Don't worry,"  Theresa said with a smile. "I've already 
talked with Mother Patricia and she  said it would be no 
problem putting you up for the  night."
	"That's a relief."  Sarah mused.
	"One small problem with that though." Theresa added. "Since 
Father Kolowski is already  using the guest quarters, you're 
going to have to use  Sister Catherine's old bed in my room.  
I'm afraid I  have one of the worst rooms in the convent, it's 
all  the way in the west wing behind the storage rooms. In fact 

at one time it was a storage room."	
	"No problem,"  Sarah said in a tired voice.  "Right now I 
don't care if its a barn, as long as it's  got a bed."
	"Great!"  Theresa said in an animated voice.

	After a quick stop at the laundry to pick up  clean sheets, 
Sarah followed Sister Theresa through  a long dark corridor 
past the kitchen and storage  rooms.  Only a few small 
emergency lights lit the  way.  Once the kitchen was closed for 

the evening,  the main lights were shut down.
	"You weren't kidding about your room being  way out of the 
way."  Sarah said as they reached a  large wooden door.  
	"Well until they finally complete the new  wing, we have to 
make do."  Theresa said as she  opened the door with an old 
metal key.  "And most  of the other Sisters were more than 
happy to have  Catherine and I sleeping far away from them."
	"Why is that?" Sarah asked curiously.
	"Catherine snored liked a lumberjack, and I  have a bad habit 
of talking in my sleep."
	"Well  growing up I shared a room with two  sisters so I'm 
sure I'll have no problem."  Sarah  retorted.
	
	Dropping the sheets on the single metal  frame bed, Sarah 
looked about the room.  The walls  were painted a soft blue, 
with a white lace curtain  hanging aside the far window.  A 
small desk  occupied a corner, and on it were four framed  
photographs.  Three were of Sister Theresa's family  back in 
Luzon.  The other was a 5x7 of her and  Sister Catherine in 
front of the school.
	"Be it ever so humble...."  Theresa said as  she began to help 

Sarah make the bed.
	With the bed finally done, Theresa walked  over to her own bed 

and began to take off her habit. In the six years since the 
great peep show, the Order  had changed to a more modern look.  


Sarah was  caught by surprise as the chubby Nun began to strip.
	"Well you didn't think we slept in them, did  you?"  Theresa 
said as she began to unhook her  habit from behind.
	"Why no, of course not."  Sarah replied.
	In fact, she had thought just that, as silly as it  sounded.  
The only way she had been able to get  over her youthful 
infatuation with Theresa was to  banish the image of her naked 
brown body from her  memory.  In had become near impossible for 

her to  visualize the round woman without the protective  brown 

habit.
	As the habit joined her headpiece on the  dressing chair, 
Theresa stood in just a white bra and  panties.  Sarah tried 
very hard not to stare, but it  was impossible not to.  Then 
when the white bra  topped the pile, Sarah had to bite her lip 
to keep her  composure.
	If anything, Theresa's breasts had grown  larger over the 
years with the extra pounds she had  gained. This was the 
closest she had ever been to  those dark brown nipples and she 
couldn't take her  eyes away.  In the cool night air, Theresa's 

nipples  stood out like small erasures.  Sarah felt a tingling 
in  her own much smaller breasts.
	Unaware of Sarah's fascination with her  body, Theresa moved 
to a dresser draw and pulled  out a blue nightshirt.  With a 
quick motion she  slipped it on, covering her large breasts.
	As she turned and finally noticed the look on  Sarah's face, 
Theresa assumed it was due to her  attire.
	"I guess you were expecting something made  out of burlap."  
Theresa said as she indicated her  garment. "But regular 
nightwear has been ok for  years.  Even if it has Mickey on the 

front."  She  added as she pointed to the large mouse figure  
draped across her mounds.
	"Now to find something for you."  Theresa  continued as she 
looked back into the draw.  "What  do you normally wear?"
	"Err....I usually sleep without...."  Sarah said  without 
thinking.
	"Ok, suit yourself."  Theresa replied as she  closed the 
dresser and crawled into the bed.
	Sarah quickly stripped down to her bright  red panties and 
slipped under her sheet.  A smile  crossed her lips as Theresa 
wished her goodnight.
	"It's a good thing I'm not a guy."  Sarah  thought as she 
began to drift off to sleep.  "Cause I'd  have the hard on to 
end all hard ons right now."


	-SARAH AND SR. THERESA- 
	         By Ann Douglas 
                       - Part Three- 
 
	Sarah found that she was unable to sleep more than 
a half hour.  Tired as she had been, she couldn't get 
Theresa's naked image out of her head.  She had been over 
it years ago, she kept repeating to herself.  She'd had several 
affairs with other women and had even fallen in love for a 
time. Why was it so hard to put this Nun out of her 
thoughts. 
	"Because she was the first....."  Sarah said to herself.  
"And she was the one you could never have." 
	Burying her head in the pillow, Sarah once again 
tried to find elusive sleep. 
 
	About an hour later, Sarah was still trying.  Then she 
heard a soft mumbling from across the room.  Theresa was 
saying something, but she couldn't make it out.  Was she 
praying? 
	Then Sarah remembered what Theresa had said 
earlier about sometimes talking in her sleep.  Intrigued, she 
rose silently from her bed and moved a little closer to try 
and hear better. 
	Tiptoeing across the room, Sarah found that she 
could now hear Theresa clearly.  Understanding her was 
another thing entirely.  Sister Theresa was speaking in 
Tagalog, her native tongue.  She also seeming to be rocking 
back and forth in her bed, perhaps she was having a 
nightmare.   
	Deciding that it would be better not to wake her, 
Sarah began to return back to her bed when she heard an 
English word.  Theresa was calling Sister Catherine's name. 
	Curiosity renewed, Sarah returned to her earlier 
position and moved around the bed to get a better look. 
Theresa had kicked her sheets to the foot of the bed, giving 
Sarah a clear view of the sleeping woman.   
	"Omigod!" Sarah whispered in amazement as she 
stepped back and clamped her hand over her mouth to keep 
from calling out. 
	She looked again to be sure of what she had seen, 
not that she had any real doubt.  With her Mickey Mouse 
nightshirt pulled up around her waist, Theresa had pulled 
down her panties and was masturbating with vigor.  Sarah 
looked again to be sure that she really was asleep.  Then she 
heard her call out Sister Catherine's name again. 
 
	"I can't believe this." Sarah said to herself as she 
unconsciously dropped her hand to her own panty covered 
mound.  "Were the two Nuns lovers?" 
	Sliding her fingers beneath her waist band, Sarah ran 
her fingers across her rapidly growing wetness.  She had 
heard stories that many Nuns were gay, but was always 
though them stories.  But then every story had some truth in 
it.  A girlfriend's sister had become a Nun and once told her 
that during their first few years they were never allowed to 
be alone with another Sister.  There always had to be a third 
Nun present.   
	A soft moan from Theresa snapped Sarah back from 
her musings.  She didn't know about another Nuns, but she 
was sure that Theresa was as much a lesbian as she was. It 
was a shock to realize this and she was torn at what to do.  
To suddenly discover that her forbidden impossible love 
was actually possible made her a little light-headed.  The 
sensible thing she told herself, would be to crawl back to 
bed and try to sort it all out in the morning.   
	Unfortunately, with all of her long buried adolescent 
fantasies suddenly exploding in both the forefront of her 
mind as well as within the growing fire between her legs, 
sensible was the last thing she wanted to be. 
	A small rational voice deep within her cried out that 
she was being foolish.  That she could be throwing away 
everything she had worked for so long.  But that voice of 
reason was quickly downed out by a rising chorus of 
passion. 
 
	With a trembling hand, Sarah reached down and 
brushed her fingers across the hairy edge of Sister Theresa's 
maidenhood.  Summoning her courage, she moved it 
downward and soon reached the light pink clitoris nestled 
between the dark brown lips.  Gently stroking it, she sat 
down on the edge of the bed.   
	Sarah was debating her next move when Teresa 
began to stir.  Sensing the strange touch on her body, she 
began to open her dark brown eyes. 
	"Catherine..?"  She asked sleepily. 
	As her eyes fully opened she remembered Catherine 
was long gone.  It took a moment for her eyes to focus, 
then she saw Sarah sitting next to her.   
	"Blessed Mary,  Mother of God!"  She exclaimed as 
she jumped up in the bed, causing Sarah to be startled. 
	Theresa pulled the sheet around her, horrified that 
her former student had witnessed her shameful weakness.  
All those years of hiding her lusts within these stone walls 
were now exposed. 
	"Oh Sarah, please forgive me."  She said in a rapid 
tone.   
	"Forgive you?"  Sarah asked. "Forgive you for 
what?" 
	"For my sinful display of course."   
	"Theresa,  in my mind, the only thing sinful about 
what you were doing is the fact that you were doing it 
alone."  Sarah said in a calm understanding voice. 
	"I don't understand?"  Theresa said, a perplexed 
expression on her face. 
	"Correct me if I'm wrong,"  Sarah continued. "But 
the way I see it, you Sister Mary Theresa are a bona-fided 
lesbian and I'd bet my last paycheck that you and Sister 
Catherine were a lot more than roommates." 
	Theresa's brown skin paled with embarrassment as 
she listened to Sarah.  All her life she'd had these feelings, 
even as a little girl in her village.  Her parents, with their 
strong unbending catholic upbringings, never could 
understand that she was different.  When she showed no 
interest in the young men who approached her father about 
taking her as a wife, the decision was made to ship her off 
to the convent school at age 16.  Marriage or the Convent, 
there had been no middle ground.   
	It wasn't until she had come to America that she 
found the words to describe what she felt.  And it wasn't 
until she had met Catherine that she came to grips with 
those feelings. Within these stone walls they had been able 
to create a private world, safe from prying eyes.  Until now. 
	"I know what you're thinking," Sarah said. "That the 
minute morning comes, everyone in the school is going to 
know what you and Catherine have been doing back here.  
But believe me when I say, no one will ever hear anything of

                       - Part Four- 
 
	"You'll keep my secret?"  Theresa asked. 
	"I guess I'd have to, especially after I tell you that I 
share the same secret. I supposed that makes us members of 
a different sort of sisterhood." 
	"You're a lesbian?"  The Nun asked as she finally 
started to relax. 
	"Since I was 17."  Sarah said. "Since the days when 
you used to tutor me in math." 
	Sarah went on to tell Theresa everything. About 
how she had  discovered her emerging homosexuality as a 
teenager.  Of  the secret feeling she had harbored toward 
Theresa all those lonely days and nights. She even told her 
all about the great shower peek show and of the many 
afternoons she had return to the shower to watch her. 
	"I'm overwhelmed."  Theresa stated.  "I had no idea.  
I was so afraid of showing any feelings outside of this room, 
it was years before I even let myself have any friends." 
	With the specter of discovery banished, Sarah and 
Theresa returned to the friendly warmness they had shared 
in so many late night discussions.  The only change was that 
now there were no longer any secrets between them. 
	"I have to ask,"  Sarah interrupted.  "Since they 
would kick you out of the Order if they found out about 
you and Catherine, and since even becoming a Nun was 
your parents idea not yours, what didn't you just leave?". 
	"That's a pretty big question."  Sarah said.  "And 
there's no easy answer.  There are two main reasons I guess.  
The first is that even if I left, Catherine wouldn't.  She's  
been 
in the order twenty five years, and had no wish to start over.  
Over the last year she began to become increasingly worried 
that someone would find out.  When her father became ill, 
she jumped at the excuse to  request a transfer and put an 
end to our relationship." 
	"But Catherine left three months ago...." 
	"The second reason is simply that I'm afraid.  This is 
the only life I've know.  How could I survive outside these 
walls. Yet I know if  I don't come to a decision soon, I'm 
going to follow the same path as Catherine.  I don't want to 
wake up one day and find myself all alone.  I've been so 
alone these last weeks, I feel so empty.  My life is a lie and  
I 
don't know what to do about it." 
	Sarah took both Theresa's hands in her own.  
Looking into her dark eyes, she smiled and said. 
	"First of all, you're not alone - at least not anymore.  
No matter what you eventually decide, I'll stand with you.  
Even if I have to stand up and tell the world who I really 
am." 
	"You'd do that?"  Theresa asked emotionally. "How 
could you decide to sacrifice everything so easily?" 
	"When I think about all the things you did for me.  
About how I wouldn't be where I am if not for your help.  
Then the decision isn't all that difficult." 
	Theresa gripped her hands tightly, overcome with 
affection for her former student.  For the first time in her 
life, she knew the true meaning of love. 
	"You said that was the first thing."  Theresa finally 
said with a beaming smile     "What was the second?" 
	"Something I wish I'd done six years ago...."  Sarah 
said as she leaned forward and kissed Theresa on her 
mouth.  
 
 
 
	Taken by surprise, Theresa didn't know how to 
respond.  Aside from the few boys she had dated back in the 
Philippines, she had never kissed anyone.  Her physical 
relationship with Catherine had been restricted to mutual 
masturbation.  She had never actually made love to anyone - 
man or woman. 
	She found Sarah's kiss to be soft and pleasing. When 
she felt the moist warmth of Sarah's tongue against her 
mouth she instinctively opened to admit it.  The warmth 
spread throughout her body,  bringing to life long denied 
urges. 
	"I love you, Theresa."  Sarah said as she broke the 
kiss.  "I've loved you since I was a student.  I want to make 
love to you, if you'll let me." 
	The quickness in which she answered yes surprised 
Theresa.  She felt as she had just taken a giant step in 
regaining her own life.  Whether Sarah was going to be a 
part of that life was a question for the future.  For the 
moment, the world beyond this room no longer existed.  All 
that mattered was the warmth of Sarah's body pressed 
against her own, and the triphammer beating of their hearts. 
	 
 
	"You don't know how many nights I've dreamed of 
these big beautiful breasts."  Sarah exclaimed as she pulled 
the blue nightshirt up over Teresa's head. 
	  Lifting one of the large breasts with both hands, 
she lifted it to her mouth.  Teresa's auerole had to be almost 
threes inches across, dark brown against a lighter shaded 
skin.  Sarah began to suck tenderly on the nipple, sending 
ripples of delight through Teresa's body.  Her tongue began 
to dart alongside the dark circle, covering it with her hot 
saliva.  Then she would take as much of it as she could 
inside her mouth,  her tongue playing with the hard nipples 
as she did. 
	While Sarah switched her attention to the other 
mammoth mound, Teresa reached down and slid her hand in 
between Sarah's legs.  To her surprise, Sarah's crotch was 
hairless, giving it a wet, slippery feeling.  Already well 
lubricated by Sarah's own earlier attentions, it effortlessly 
admitted her two fingers, followed quickly by a third.  
Moving as fast as she could, she began to furiously 
finger-fuck her new lover.   
	Sarah responded by continuing to pay with her 
melon sized tits, alternating between kissing, sucking or just 
plain squeezing them.  She would then bury her face 
between them, pulling them tight against her cheeks as she 
licked the skin in between. 
	Bringing her attentions downward, Sarah soon 
confronted the hairiest pussy she had ever seen.  Most of 
Theresa's body had some hair on it, but no where was it 
fuller than between her legs. Normally Sarah liked a closely 
trimmed crotch, or one clean shaven like her own.  But 
knowing that she was approaching virgin territory made the 
thick shrub all the more exciting. 
	Reaching her objective, she used both hands to pull 
apart the fleshy skin and reveal the pinkness within.  The 
fragrant aroma of raw womanhood greeted her nostrils as 
she reached in with her tongue and licked around her clit.  
Then she began to explore inside Teresa, using her talented 
tongue like a doctor's probe. 
	Teresa laid back, eyes closed and waded in the 
waves of new sensations.  If only she had know it could be 
this wonderful.  Her pussy throbbed with excitement as 
Sarah's tongue drew more and more sweet nectar.  The 
younger woman buried her face between her tighs, causing 
the older woman to erupt again in a burst of girlcum. 
	"Mmmmm"  Sarah moaned as she sucked the fruit of 
her labors into her mouth. 
	Teresa was now lost to the world as succeeding 
torrids of ecstasy raced through her body. Her fingers had 
slid out of Sarah's cunt a few minutes before with the onset 
of orgasm. Not that Sarah cared.  All she wanted to do was 
drain her pussy dry.   
	Teresa's body shook twice more, then finally she 
could give no more.  Never had see felt so exhausted or 
satisfied.  Sarah just laid there, licking the spilled juices  
from 
her legs.  When she finally emerged, her face was covered 
from cheek to cheek with shiny girlcum.   
	Pulling herself up along side Teresa, she gave her a 
long penetrating kiss.  The taste of her own climax filled her 
mouth, sending a new surge of satisfaction within her.  
Experimenting with her own tongue, she explored the 
wetness of Sarah's mouth. 
	Embracing Sarah she ran her hands across her much 
smaller pale breasts, playing with the nipples as she had seen 
Sarah do.  Kissing one after the other, she was delighted to 
find that Sarah's body had it's own unique taste.  She 
couldn't wait to explore the rest of her. 
	"Later,"  Sarah said as she kissed her once more.  
"Right now I just want you to hold me." 
	With that, Teresa pulled Sarah closer, letting her rest 
her head upon those huge brown breasts which had so 
fascinated her before.  For long minutes they just laid there 
as Teresa pondered her actions.  Surprisingly she didn't feel 
the least bit of guilt.  An emotion which had always 
followed any activity with Catherine.  If anything, she felt 
contentment.	 
	Brushing Sarah's light blonde hair away from her 
face, Teresa smiled as she realized that her new love had 
fallen asleep.  She kissed her on the forehead and laid her 
head against Sarah's.  In less than five minutes, she too was 
fast asleep. 
 
 
	Four months later, Sister Mary Theresa walked into 
Mother Patricia's office and announced she was giving up 
her vows.  Before the month was out, she had resettled in 
New England as the new assistant principle of an exclusive 
girl's school. 
	At the end of the school year, Sarah too tendered 
her resignation, citing a better job offer.  The Penderhouse 
School was more than happy to welcome her to their staff, 
especially after the flowing recommendation she had 
received from their new assistant principle.
