The Rich Little Home Builders
By Chris
Christine sat at her desk looking out the window at the wind
blowing the leaves as she thought. It was a crisp early fall day in
Northern Vermont where the exclusive boarding school that she attended was
located. She was spending her Saturday filling out the applications for the
universities that she wanted to attend. Actually there was only one school
that she really wanted to get into and that was Princeton. She was applying
to all of the other Ivy League schools but Princeton was where her heart
lay. She had visited there with her mother when she was nine. Her mother
had been childhood friends with one of the professors who had just been
awarded the Pulitzer Prize for a book she had written. Her mother's friend
had given them both a tour of the campus and Christine had fallen in love
with the history of the university.
She had finished all the other applications and she was working now
on the one to Princeton. She had all the main parts filled in and was now
filling in the extracurricular activities that she was involved in. She had
listed all the clubs and honor societies that she was in but that just
didn't seem to be enough to really make an impression. So she was trying to
think of anything that she could put down that would stick out and make her
noticeable. Nothing was coming to mind and that was making her start to
worry. She just needed that something that would put her over the hump and
make them want to take her. Her grades were great and her family had more
than enough money to pay the high tuition. Her great-great grandfather had
made his money in the steel industry then her grandfather had gotten out of
the business just before it tanked and the steel making was moved
overseas. Now her family had majority interest over thirteen different
industries, so she was set for life but all that wouldn't mean a thing to
her if she didn't get into Princeton. There was lots of rich and
politically connected applying so having money didn't mean a lot. She sat
there thinking and thinking, trying to find that special something that
would set her apart.
She kept looking out the window but not really seeing anything as
her mind worked. She kept at it until something flashed into her mind. She
made her mind stop and go back to what she had seen. Her mind pictured the
school bulletin board in the administrative offices. She knew then that she
had what she needed. She jumped up from her chair, slipping on a pair of
flats. She grabbed her jacket as she rushed out the door. She ran down the
stairs taking two at a time as she went down the three flights of
stairs. She burst through the dorm room doors getting some strange look
from a couple of girls about to enter the dorm. She hollered that she was
sorry as she ran toward her destination. Again she burst through the doors
as she entered the admin building going straight to the board. She had to
look over it several times before her eyes finally locked onto what she was
looking for. There half hidden by last week's lunch and dinner menu was the
paper she had seen in her mind. She grabbed a pen and paper from her jacket
pocket, writing down the number. She went right back to her dorm calling
the number on her cell phone. She was lucky that she found someone there
and she got the information that she needed and also got them to send her
the paperwork that she would need. Once that was done, she was ready to
finish her application to Princeton. So the last line on her application
was "Spending the summer after graduation with the nonprofit organization,
Avery's Homes, building and remodeling homes for those needing a helping
hand to succeed in life." Christine had seen organizations like this and
she figured that it would be easy way to get noticed by Princeton and at
the same time not really have to do a lot. She figured that they would have
people there that knew what they were doing and she could help in some
small and non labor intensive way. Normally she researched things to death
wanting to know everything about it but in her rush to make herself look
good, she bypassed this very important and necessary step.
So she sent in the application into Princeton and when she got the
paperwork from Avery Homes, she filled it out, never giving it a passing
thought. She got her interview at Princeton in early December and brought
up what she was going to do that summer after graduating from high
school. So this further committed herself to carrying through on her
promise though she had every intention of doing so. The interview went well
and by the end of January, she was accepted to the school that she had
always dreamed about attending.
When she told her parents over Christmas break what she was going to
do during the summer, they thought that she was crazy. Her father offered
to just send them a donation and that way she could work with him. Her
mother even threatened to call up the organization and tell them that she
couldn't go with them. All of this just made her want to do it that much
more. They said that she wasn't raised to work on houses; she was made for
better things. Then they pointed out the fact that she had never done any
physical labor in her life so she would be running home after the first
day. They argued over the whole break about this and she went back to
school determined to prove her parents wrong.
Her last semester went well as she finish in the top ten percent of
her class and considering she was attending a school with some of the
smartest kids in the country then that was an accomplishment that she could
be proud of though her parents would have preferred her to be in the top
ten. After the graduation, her parents gave her a brand new Mustang which
was the car she had wanted to get for a long time. She knew that this was
one last bribe attempt by her parents to get her to stay home over the
summer however it didn't work. A week after returning home and enjoying her
new car, she had her mother take her to the airport where she flew to
Lexington, Kentucky where she was to catch the bus that the organization
used to travel from place to place during the summer to build houses for
people who had the drive to make it in the world but they needed a little
help. It was a short flight and she arrived in Lexington a little after two
in the afternoon. She got her two bags and took them to the main entrance
of the Airport which is where she was instructed to go to wait on the
bus. She had her Ipod playing her favorite songs and her mind was at
Princeton where she would be in three short months.
She hadn't been there long when she happened to catch out of the
corner of her eye someone sitting down beside of her on the bench. She
glanced over at the girl who appeared to be about her age giving her a
smile before looking back in front of her. Her mind was more on the song
she was listening to than on the girl but slowly the image of the girl
began to creep back into her mind. She thought for a moment as the girl
seemed very familiar to her. She didn't want to turn her head back toward
her but her curiosity started to get the best of her. She focused on a
couple with two kids walking past her thus allowing her head to turn as
they went by. When she was able to see the girl, she found that the girl
was looking back at her smiling. Christine smiled back and she realized
that she knew the girl if only slightly.
"I know you... You went to..." Christine was saying.
"Yea, I did, though we didn't have any classes together." She said
with a British accent.
Christine then knew who she was but for the life of her she couldn't
remember her name. They had run in different crowds and never had any
classes together as the girl had said. Now she was wracking her mind for
the girl's name but she couldn't think of it. Though it was a private
school, there were a lot of students there and the classes were small so
that is why they never had a class together.
Finally she gave up on remembering the girl's name, "I'm sorry but I
can't remember your name."
"I'm Daphne and I believe that you are Christine, right?" She said.
"Now I feel really bad." Christine said and she saw Daphne smile at
her.
"Please don't, I've always been pretty good with names and you
aren't someone, one would forget." She told her as she placed her hand on
Christine's arm giving it a squeeze before letting go.
The touch had an effect on Christine for some reason though she
didn't know why. Then she wasn't sure what to say as she looked at
Daphne. She had shoulder length black hair that was straight without a hint
of curl in it. She was slim with B cup breasts and had long firm legs which
her short shorts showed off. She could be a model if she wanted to be
Christine thought to herself which made her mind more mixed up. So she
blurted out the first thing that she could think of. "Are you visiting
someone here?" She asked as she remembered that Daphne's father was the CEO
of the bank that a British bank owned, and the American Corporate offices
were in New York.
"Oh no, I don't know anyone here except you. I suspect that I'm here
for the same reason that you are." She said.
"You're going to build houses with Avery Homes?" Christine asked
more than a little surprised and even more pleased.
"Yep, expert home builder, that's me." She said seriously.
"So you've done this before?" Christine asked getting a little
worried that that she would be the only one without a clue as to how a
house was built.
Daphne laughed as she said, "Oh god no, I was kidding with you. I
just needed something to look good on my application to Stanford. I have
never done any charity work and I thought that this would look good."
"I did the same thing to get into Princeton. I wanted to make myself
look good." Christine said with some relief.
"I guess that we're in this together." Daphne said putting her hand
back on Christine's arm giving it another squeeze.
"So you know what we'll be doing?" Christine asked.
"Not a clue. I know they send me a whole bunch of papers but for the
life of me, I don't know what I did with them. I searched for hours last
night but I couldn't find them." Daphne told her.
"That's okay; I've got mine with me." Christine said.
"What do they say?" She asked.
"I don't know. I never had any time to read them." Christine
replied.
"You're not doing me any bloody good." She said laughing again and
Christine was getting used to Daphne's since of humor and she liked
it. "Well anyway we can read it as we go to wherever they are taking us."
"That works for me." Christine said when a very old touring bus with
a trailer hooked to it, pulled up, and the doors opened.
The first person out was a short sturdy Hispanic looking woman who
had a big smile on her face and following her was a big bear of a man who
had a frown on his face. Christine instantly liked the woman but the man
she wasn't so sure of.
"Hi I'm Wanda and this is dear sweet man is John Avery but we all
call him Bud, however he is also know by several other names none of which
I can repeat." Wanda said laughing at her own joke however Bud didn't seem
too amused. This just made Christine like Wanda more. "I assume that you're
Christine and Daphne."
"Yes we are, I'm Daphne and this is Christine." Daphne said as she
went to shake both their hands.
"Oh I love your accent." Wanda said as she smiled brightly.
"I get that a lot." Daphne said as she stepped back so that
Christine could shake both their hands.
"Well let's get your bags loaded and then we can get on the road."
Wanda said as she went over to the side of the bus opening a panel so that
they could put their bags in. As she did this, Bud got back into the bus,
sitting in the driver's seat. Wanda then took them aboard and introduced
them to the other ten people that were going to help build the houses. They
all seemed to be older and all looked like they had spent their life doing
some type of construction work. They all were friendly as they introduced
themselves. They were mostly sitting in the front of the bus and what seats
not taken were filled with equipment. "Just make a place for yourselves
anywhere." Wanda said as she sat down right behind of Bud who already had
the bus in gear and was heading out.
Daphne was in front of Christine so she just followed her down the
narrow aisle. She saw that Daphne's shorts were tight around her ass and
it made Christine wish that she could lose those extra pounds so that she
would have an ass like that. Daphne kept going to the back of the bus where
she started to clean out a couple of seats, handing the stuff to Christine
who now had to find a place to put it. Once two seats were cleaned out,
Daphne sat down by the window and Christine sat beside of her.
"I always like to sit at the back of the bus, don't know why."
Daphne said.
"It's cool, I like it back here too but I wonder if the others will
think us strange." Christine stated.
"We are weird to them, two eighteen year old girls that never done
anything like this before. They are all probably talking about us now."
Daphne stated not trying to be mean or anything but stating things as she
saw them.
"True, but then again, I figure we are going to talk about them as
well and first off I don't think I'm going to like Bud." Christine said
with a laugh.
"Me either, Wanda I like, but Bud, I don't think so. He didn't even
crack a smile at us." Daphne said.
"I know, I wonder what pole he has up his ass?" Christine said with
a giggle.
"I don't know but it has to be the size of a telephone pole." Daphne
came back setting them both off in a fit of laughter.
"So tell me about yourself, I know you your English, I remember
hearing that much about you but tell me more. I figure we're going to be
riding for a while." Christine said as she turned toward Daphne looking
into her light green eyes.
"I was actually born here but my father got transferred back to
London right after I was born. So by birth I am a US citizen and through my
parents I am also a British citizen. So I have to decide upon one of them
soon now that I've turned eighteen." Daphne told her.
"So which one have you decided to go with, being a American or a
Britain?" Christine asked.
"I guess British, though I have lived half my life in the US and
have become just as much American as British, I'm still British at heart
plus that would make my parents happy. They love it here but England is
home for them and always will be." Daphne told her.
"I can understand that. So now tell me the rest of your story."
Christine told her.
"You want the short or long version?" Daphne asked.
"Ah... give me the short version then I can give you my short
version though I think yours will be more interesting." Christine told her.
"I doubt that but here goes." Daphne said as she settled back in her
seat and began her story as the bus headed out of the city.
Daphne started by telling Christine that her father was working in a
bank in Boston that the company he worked for had bought. He was an expert
at turning failing banks around so that is what he was doing there. Her
mother got pregnant there and they had planned on going back to London to
have her but then her mother had some complications and was stuck in Boston
as the doctors wouldn't let her travel. So she ended up being born in
Boston. Then at six months her father was called back to London where they
stayed until she was six. So she developed a British accent, but then when
her father was sent back to the US going to Chicago this time where the
company had bought out another bank. He worked there until she was ten
where they went back to London, where they stayed until she was fourteen
when he got sent to New York. Her mother didn't like any of the high
Schools in New York so Daphne got to pick out a school she wanted to go to
and she decided on the prep school in Vermont which happened to be the one
that Christine was going to go to.
"God you've lived all over the place." Christine told her after
Daphne finished the short version of her life.
"Yea but it isn't as bloody fun as it sounds. Just about the time
that I start to make friends, my father gets transferred to someplace
new. It was like I was constantly starting over. That is why I picked a
boarding school. That way if my father got transferred again, I could at
least finish school in the same place." Daphne said with a sigh that made
Christine feel a little sad for her.
They were silent for a few minutes then Daphne proclaimed, "It's
your turn, give me all your dirty secrets."
Christine laughed before saying, "I can give you the short version
of my life but I'm afraid that I don't have any dirty secrets."
"That's a shame I was hoping I could learn something to blackmail
you with later." Daphne said letting out another laugh.
"Sorry to disappoint you but I can tell you about my life."
Christine told her.
"Okay," Daphne said.
Christine thought for a moment before starting her life story. She
first told about her great-great grandfather making his money in the steel
industry and then her grandfather getting them out of the industry before
all the steel making went out of the country. He bought up several
different types of businesses so that the family money would always be
protected. Now her father was the chairmen of the board of those
companies. They had sold some of the shares of the companies only keeping
enough stock to have controlling interest. So she had always been schooled
in the best schools and she went to the boarding school that her mother had
gone to as well as her grandmother. Her mother had always raised her to be
strong and to be proper as all the family who had money and
power. Christine told her that she had always felt like she had to prove
herself to her parents. She had studied hard to be in the top of her class
but her parents seemed disappointed that she didn't finish at the very
top. She went on to say that doing this was the first time she had done
anything that even remotely defied her parent's wishes.
"Well good for you." Daphne said, "You stick around with me and I'll
make sure that this won't be the last time you defy your parents."
Christine laughed but as she studied Daphne, she began to suspect
that Daphne was being serious. This scared her but also excited her. She
had never lived dangerously before and she began to think that it was long
past time for her to do so. But saying it and then doing it was two very
different things. "I'll keep that in mind." Was all Christine could think
to say.
They then began to gossip about the kids at the boarding school as
the bus made its way to wherever they were heading. As they talked, they
began to find that they were rapidly becoming friends. The bus was now on
the secondary roads heading into the Appalachian Mountains. They never
noticed that the homes became more and more dilapidated. The sun started to
set as they ran out of things to talk about. They began to become sleepy
and soon they were both sound asleep.
Christine awoke when the bus pulled to a stop. She felt something on
her shoulder and she realized that it was Daphne's head lying against
it. Christine found herself smiling then wondering why. She wasn't sure
what to do but then she saw everyone getting up and stretching so she knew
that they were at their destination.
"Daphne, wake up. I think we're here." Christine said as she gently
shook her.
"Here where?" Daphne asked as she yawned.
"Be damn if I know." Christine said as gently pushed Daphne off her
shoulder before anyone saw them.
"Well you're no bloody good are you?" Daphne said seriously then she
smiled brightly.
"Let's get going and see what is happening." Christine said as she
got up and then she reached out her hand to help Daphne up feeling her soft
hand. And she found herself holding it a moment longer than was
necessary. When she realized this, she let go of the hand but she could see
a smile on Daphne's face that seemed to say something more but she wasn't
sure what.
"I guess we had better go, it looks like everyone is getting off the
bus." Daphne said as she pointed to the front of the bus where most of the
people had already gotten off.
"Let's go then and start our new careers as home builders."
Christine said with a laugh.
Daphne laughed and she said, "Lead on and I shall follow you
anywhere."
"That's what they all say." Christine laughed as she moved into the
aisle and started walking into the great unknown.
When they got outside, Christine found herself looking at an old
motel. It looked like a roadside hotel that was built in the early
fifties. And it actually was built in the fifties when this was the main
road and the interstate that bypassed it had yet to be built. They all got
their bags out and Wanda gave them a key and Christine was pleased that she
was rooming with Daphne. They grabbed their bags heading to their room
where they were to freshen up and report back at the bus at seven.
"Not exactly a five star hotel, is it?" Daphne proclaimed as they
entered the room.
"No it's not but at least it seems clean." Christine said as she
went to the bed pulling back the covers to see that there were fresh white
sheets on it.
"The bathroom is clean. You want to use it first?" Daphne asked.
"No you're already there, go ahead and I'll take my shower after
you. Just hurry, we only got an hour to get ready." Christine warned her as
Daphne came back to the room to get clean clothes.
"You mean I can't spend my normal two hours getting ready." Daphne
asked as she cocked her hip at Christine.
Christine laughed and then she came back with, "No, I think twenty
minutes is more than enough time for you to get yourself pretty for Bud."
"Yea right, he wishes." Daphne said then she laughed.
As Daphne took her shower, Christine went through her clothes trying
to decide what she needed to wear. She picked out a pair of her best jeans,
a nice blouse and her boots that had a slight heel to it. She figured that
it would be fine as the air felt cool that morning so she wanted to be
warm. Exactly twenty minutes later, Daphne came out of the bathroom wearing
a pair of thong panties and an underwire bra that lifted her small breasts
a little making them a bit more pronounced. Christine gave her a quick look
over as Daphne walked slowly to her suitcase. Christine went toward the
bathroom; then before she entered the bathroom, she took a look back at
Daphne who was bending over the bed looking into her suitcase. Christine
got a good view of Daphne's ass and about that time Daphne looked back at
her catching her staring at her ass. She gave her a smile that made
Christine blush as she hurried on into the bathroom.
When she came out of the bathroom, she was fully dressed and found
that Daphne was also dressed in a very tight pair of jeans and a tee shirt
and was also very snug showing off her breasts and slim waist. When they
got out to the bus, they found everyone already there waiting for them.
They were all dressed in loose fitting clothes and they were carrying a
tool belt with hammers, rulers and other things used to build a house. They
all got strange looks and Christine felt like they really should have
gotten around to reading the information that was sent to them. She looked
over at Daphne who had this deer caught in the headlights look. Christine
began to get a deep feeling in the pit of her stomach that this was going
to be a very long day.
They loaded the bus and headed down to a local coffee shop where
they got breakfast. They were all seated together but Christine noticed
that no one was really talking to them except for Wanda who was discreetly
asking them if they had any tools and when they replied that they
didn't. Then she asked if they had read the information packet that was
sent to them and they both had to reply "No" again. She said that she would
see what she could find for them but they both could see the disappointment
in her eyes. Christine looked over at Bud who looked back at her giving her
the impression that he knew it was a big mistake to take them along. As
much as she hated to admit it, Christine was beginning to think that he
just might be right.
When they got to the site, Wanda found then a hammer and a ruler
that they could use but she told them that they needed get the supplies
after they finished that day. Christine found that while Wanda seemed nice,
she was all business which made Christine respect her more.
The foundation for the house had already been put into place so this
first day; they would be laying out the floor. There were several stacks of
boards, plywood, and planks stacked up around the small lot. Everyone
started in carrying the studs that they would use to lay the floor on. This
just left Christine and Daphne standing there as they had no clue as to
what to do.
"Well don't just stand there with your thumbs up your butt, get some
of those large planks and bring them over here." Bud barked at them.
Christine and Daphne both jumped when Bud hollered at them. It
wasn't something that they were used to and neither liked it. However they
went over to where the planks were. Christine started to lift one end of
one and found that there was no way she could carry one by herself like the
others were doing. So she got one end and Daphne got the other and they
struggled to lift it.
"Come on girls, we haven't got all day." Bud yelled at them making
them both cringe.
They started to walk over to the where Bud was waiting
impatiently. There were holes and ruts in the ground making it hard to walk
and their boots weren't giving their ankles any support. They finally got
it to him and he took it handling it with ease where they struggled. Once
he had it, they stood there for a moment not sure what to do next.
"Come on Missy, get me another one!" Bud yelled even though they
were only a couple of feet from him.
Christine could see the blood rush to Daphne's face so she grabbed
her arm pulling her away before she said anything back to Bud. She dragged
her over to the stack of planks getting another one and taking it back to
Bud.
"Come on Missy get the lead out!" Bud barked before they even
started back to the planks.
"Who is he calling Missy?" Christine asked as they started back.
"Both of us." Daphne muttered and Christine could tell that Daphne
was getting angry at being yelled at.
"Well let's just get through this." Christine told her as she knew
that they were ill prepared for what was expected of them and it was their
fault. Neither of them read the pamphlet that they were supposed to have
read.
"I don't like being yelled at." Daphne spat out.
"Neither do I." Christine told her as they got to the planks.
They spend the morning carrying the planks to everyone and Christine
felt her hands getting tender and she already had a couple of splinters
that she had no time to pick out as Bud had them hopping. Then to add to
their misery, the sun popped through the early morning fog and the
temperature began to rise. Christine felt the sweat begin to pour from her
pores and her hair was soaked in sweat. And neither of them had a hat to
protect their heads from the heat. Bud had Christine almost in tears by the
time that lunch came. Christine and Daphne sat by themselves as they drank
down the cool water and picked the splinters from their hands.
"Oh god this bra is killing me and my knickers are about to cut my
arse in two." Daphne complained.
"Yea, I don't think either of us is dressed properly for this type
of work." Christine said.
"Well that is okay, once this day is over and we're back at the
hotel, I'm getting my arse out of here. I'm not putting up with Bud's
bloody shit anymore." Daphne told her and Christine wanted to tell her that
it was their fault that they were getting yelled at but she could see that
Daphne wasn't in the mood to listen to anything like that.
"Let's just get through this day and we'll talk about it." Christine
said as calmly as she could though she was thinking seriously that she
would be following Daphne's lead and getting the hell out of there.
"There's no need to talk, I'm going to leave and you should be right
behind me if you got any intelligence." Daphne spit back.
Christine was going to say something but she knew now wasn't the
time to talk to her new friend. Besides she didn't know what she wanted to
do. So they ate their sandwiches in silence as they both tried to cool down
both physically, emotionally, and mentally.
The afternoon was spent the same way as the morning carrying the
planks and then the plywood as the floor was laid down. Christine thought
that carrying the plants was hard, well the plywood proved harder as they
were both heavy and awkward to carry. They also proved to be a good source
of splinters. Bud yelled at them all through the afternoon never calling
them by name just using Missy for either or both of them. About three,
they had the floor in place and they quit since no one had gotten a good
night sleep. It was also at this time that the future owner of the house
arrived with her three small children. Wanda introduced them to the
group. Her name was Rita and she was a small petite young woman who looked
to be in her mid to late twenties. She had dark brown hair and she already
had worry lines around her eyes. Her oldest daughter was named Diana and
was seven, the middle daughter was named Joanie and was four, with the
youngest named Rebecca or Becky and she was ten months. The oldest two had
brown hair like their mother and they had her facial features. The baby was
as blond as she could be and had this happy disposition that made you think
that she was a very happy baby.
As Wanda explained to the group that Rita was a single mother
working two jobs to support her kids and pay the rent in the dump she was
forced to live in. Rita appeared uncomfortable to Christine having her life
simplified to such small details. Wanda went on to tell them about Rita's
husband getting killed in a logging accident when she was pregnant with
Becky. He was an independent logger so there was no life insurance to fall
back on.
When Rita came over to thank Christine for her work, Becky reached
out for Christine so she took her. The little girl smiled brightly at
Christine and gave her a little kiss as she hugged her tightly. Christine's
heart was lost to the cute little girl as she bounced her on her hip making
the little girl giggle and laugh. Then the girl wanted to go to Daphne who
reluctantly took her. Christine watched as Becky made Daphne's frown turn
into a smile as she began to play with her and she laughed and giggled at
whatever Daphne did. Christine or Daphne stayed with the Rita and her
little family with one or the other of them holding Becky and playing with
her.
An hour or so later, they loaded back into the bus to go get
something to eat. This time the group was placed at several tables with
Christine and Daphne sitting to themselves. Daphne was in the middle of
planning their escape when Wanda came over.
"I would like to talk to you two for a minute." She stated as she
sat down.
"Okay," Christine said getting a mean look from Daphne.
"Neither of you bothered to read the packet that we sent to you did
you?" She asked.
Christine felt embarrassed as she replied for both of them, "No we
didn't."
"That's a shame as you might have figured out what you were getting
yourselves into and been more prepared for what we do." Wanda told them
then before either could reply, she went on. "You see we have only two
weeks to complete a small house and move on to the next place. That way we
can get all the houses that we need to build before the summer ends. These
are hard working families that need help to get a better life for
themselves and their children. I know you both come from families that
could afford to have hundreds of houses build without missing any of the
money but we depend on the help of volunteers to build a few houses each
summer. I think that you both need to decide if this is what you want to do
for the summer." She then got up going back to the table that Bud was
sitting at. Christine then saw them looking over the plans for the house
and Wanda began to make calls as Bud told her what was needed.
"I know what I'm going to do this summer and it isn't building these
bloody houses." Daphne said loud enough for Wanda and Bud to
hear. Christine saw the disappointment on Wanda's face while bud expression
told Christine that he knew all along that they wouldn't stick it out. This
reaction of Bud made Christine feel bad about herself as if she had failed
at the first thing that she had tried to do in the real world. About then
Daphne got up throwing down a hundred dollar bill on the table and she
walked out.
Christine got up running after Daphne who was walking at a fast pace
toward the old motel. When she caught up with her, she saw how angry Daphne
was and she saw the tears running down her face. They had just been put
into their places by Wanda and as much as it hurt Christine's feelings, it
seemed to have hurt Daphne's more. Christine didn't say anything to her as
she walked with her to the motel room.
Once there Daphne grabbed her suitcases and began to throw her
clothes into it. "What you doing? Get your shit packed and I'll call a cab
to get us out of this bloody shithole." She told Christine angrily.
"Come here and sit with me, I want to talk to you." Christine said
as calmly as she could.
"What's there to talk about? I'm not going to be told off by that
bitch or be yelled at by that bastard!" Daphne told her.
"Please sit with me and let me say something then if you want, we'll
get the hell out of here." Christine said as she slid over on the bed
giving Daphne room.
"Okay but then we're leaving." Daphne said with a sigh but she did
come over and sit beside of her.
Christine sat there a minute composing her thoughts and trying to
decide what she wanted. Once she made her decision she began to talk.
"You know Wanda is right. We didn't read what we were supposed to
read and we came ill prepared. All thorough school, I was always prepared
for my classes and tests but when it came to the real world, I forgot to do
that and so did you. We were raised to believe that we better than everyone
else but maybe we're not. We just got born in the right families. You saw
Becky and her sisters, they'll never have the chances that we have but
maybe we can give them a good home." She said as she paused to let that
sink in and let Daphne think about that sweet little girl.
"My father expects me to come running home with my tail stuck
between my legs and if I leave here now, that is exactly what I'll be
doing. You told me on the bus that you were going to help me defy my father
and I believed you. I want to prove my father wrong and I want to prove
Wanda and Bud wrong. I want to show them what I'm made of. And just maybe I
can show myself who I really am." She said finishing her speech.
Daphne sat there thinking and not saying a word for a long time and
Christine wasn't sure which way she would go. She knew that she needed
someone with her to survive Bud's abuse but she was willing to go it alone.
"So you think we should stay?" Daphne asked.
Christine suppressed a smile as she knew she had convinced Daphne to
stay. "Yes I do, for us and for that little girl who is depending on us to
build her a nice home to grow up in."
"Okay we'll stay but lay off the little girl stuff. She's cute and
all that but she doesn't need me to give her a good life." Daphne told her.
"Yes she does." Christine told her.
"Oh god you're a bleeding heart liberal aren't you." Daphne said.
"Yea and so are you. Becky stole your heart just as quickly as she
stole mine." Christine said with a laugh.
"Okay so am I. What do we do now?" Daphne asked as she got up from
the bed.
"We go get some clothes and tools that we can work with and in. I'm
not wearing these boots or tight jeans tomorrow and I got to get me some
gloves." Christine said. "You go take a shower and I'll get out the papers
that they sent to us and see what we need."
"Good I got to get this sweat off of me and get rid of this damn bra
and knickers." Daphne spat out as she pulled on her bra.
Daphne grabbed some clean panties and bra and headed into the
bathroom as Christine searched around in her bags for the papers she should
have read long ago. An hour later they were heading out of the hotel.
"So where do we need to go and what do we need" Daphne asked.
"Here is a list of supplies that they said we would need and there
is a hardware store down the block. The only clothes store I could find in
the phone book is a Goodwill shop so I think we should go there first."
Christine told her.
"Okay lead on but I am going to warn you now, if Bud calls me Missy
once more I'm going to tell him off." Daphne warned her and Christine
laughed but she knew that she was being serious.
"What can I do for you ladies?" A heavy set woman asked as they
entered the store.
"We need some work clothes, something comfortable and cool to work
in." Daphne told her.
"Well this is a Goodwill store, we only sell to people that can't
afford clothes any other way. And from the looks of you two and what you're
wearing, you don't need charity." She told them.
Christine knew she was right but this was the only place in town to
get clothes so she made an offer to the lady. "I know and you're
right. We'll pay double or triple the asking price. We just need something
that we can work in."
The lady came from around the counter and looked them both
over. Christine tried to give the lady her most desperate look but she knew
that the lady was too smart to fall for that and she was right. "You got
more clothes like you're wearing now?" She asked. Christine looked over at
Daphne who she saw was as confused as her by the strange question.
"Yea, but why?" Daphne asked.
"I know my daughter would love to have something nice to wear like
those jeans you are wearing. I know all the other girls around town would
kill to have a chance to wear designer jeans and fancy blouses. You donate
all your clothes and pay double for what you need and I'll fix you up." She
told them.
"That's highway robbery!" Daphne complained.
"You're right it is but you two can afford it and I'd do anything to
be able to give my daughter a pair of fancy jeans. And all the other
mothers around this poor community would do the same. So what you say is it
a deal or not?" She asked.
"You got a deal, we'll be right back. We need pants, underclothes,
shirts and a good pair of work boots." Christine said as she pulled Daphne
out of the shop before she could say anything.
"She is nothing more than a thief." Daphne said as they went out the
door.
"You're right but she has what we need so we're going to go back and
pack our bags and bring them to her. And when we get back home, we're going
to send her more stuff." Christine told her.
"We are?" Daphne asked giving her a funny look.
"Yes we are. Right now I would give her anything that I can work in
and I saw you pulling on your bra and panties all day so I know you would
too." Christine told her.
"Do you always have to be right?" Daphne asked but then she smiled.
"I try." Christine said with a laugh.
So they went back to the motel and packed up all their bags. Even
putting in the clothes that they had worn that day thought they did put
them in a plastic bag as they did need cleaning before they could be sold.
On their way back out, they saw Wanda and Bud coming back. Christine
saw the disappointment in Wanda's eyes and she saw that Bud wasn't the
least bit surprised to see them leaving with their bags packed.
"We are so going to ruin his day tomorrow when we show up." Daphne
said with more than a little satisfaction.
When they got back to the Goodwill store, they saw that the sales
lady already had a bunch of clothes picked out. So as she looked through
the clothes that they brought in, they looked through the clothes that she
had picked out. They tried on a few of the things and Christine found that
the loose fitting clothes were a lot more comfortable than the tight things
she had always worn. All the clothes were worn but they fit and they would
work. On the last change of clothes, she left on what she had tried on and
brought out the clothes that she had worn in. When she saw that Daphne was
wearing her original clothes, she made her go back and put something on
from the shop. The lady had gotten them some cheap cotton panties and bras
that Christine was glad to see as they did feel a hell of a lot more
comfortable than the bra she had worn in. Daphne protested losing her last
pair of thongs and underwire bra but Christine made her put them with the
dirty clothes that the lady could take home and wash.
"I hope no one from home sees me in these clothes." Daphne
complained as they each carried their clothes in a big laundry bag as their
luggage was also left behind.
"Don't worry there's not going to be anyone that will ever be seen
around here." Christine told her.
"Very true," Daphne said.
Their next stop was at the hardware and they were just getting ready
to close but after seeing what all they planned to buy, they were more than
happy to stay open and sell them what they needed. They got all new tools
and a nice tool belt to put them in. Christine could see that they were
being given the most expensive things but she didn't care as long as it was
what they needed. She also made sure to get several pair of work gloves and
a couple of hats to wear.
When they got back to the motel, they pulled out the paperwork and
found out that their work had just begun. They had their tools but now they
needed to learn to use them. They started out by playing with the
ruler. Daphne used her cell phone to get on the internet to learn a little
about how to measure things then they set about measuring everything in the
motel room. They would both look at it and then tell each other what they
thought it was. If they agreed, they cheered and high fived each other and
if they disagreed then they would start over. Once they were satisfied with
their ability to use a ruler, they got out their hammers. They found an old
piece of wood behind the motel and using their hammers and the nails that
they had bought, they began to fill that poor piece of wood with nails.
They worked until well past one in the morning before their bodies
gave out and they needed rest. They had done as best they could and the
rest would just have to come with experience. They both fell into their
beds falling asleep before their heads hit the pillow. The alarm went off
at five and they both groaned but then groaned louder when they tried to
get out of bed and discovered just how sore their muscles were. Daphne
cussed Christine from the time that she got up to the time that they headed
out to the diner to eat. They got there first and Christine could see that
Daphne was getting an immense amount of satisfaction upon seeing Bud walk
into the diner with Wanda. He frowned as Daphne gave him a big
smile. Christine was more worried by what Wanda's expression would be and
she felt good when she smiled at them. She even came over to give them a
smiling good morning. Christine kept seeing Bud eyeing them and she could
almost see him smile as he studied how they were now dressed and the fact
that they had two tool belts sitting on the table fully stocked. They
probably had more that they would ever need but Christine wanted to make
sure she had everything that they could possibility need.
They were out at the house a little before seven. But now that they
were there, Christine wasn't as confident as she was at the diner. They had
learned a lot the previous night but that didn't mean that they were ready
to build a house. Today they were going to put up the frame of the
house. But first they had to build the four sides of the house. So Bud
separated them into two groups, one building the back of the house and the
other building the front. Then they would put the sides in before the
rafters for the roof would be delivered that afternoon and those would be
put up so they had a busy day planned. There was only one bad thing about
how Bud divided the groups up; he left both Christine and Daphne out of the
mix. It made Christine a little angry and she could see that it made Daphne
even angrier.
"You two Missy's can bring us the boards that each need." He barked
at them.
"I'm not putting up with him calling us Missy all day." Daphne
muttered under her breath.
"Now we're going to need about twenty, eight foot boards, over on
this side of the house and they'll need the same amount on their side. So
get a move on it Missy." He barked at them.
Christine had to grab Daphne's arm to keep her from going after
him. She pulled her over to the shorter looking boards and they measure one
to make sure they got the right one. Christine saw that Bud was watching
them but this time he didn't seemed to be upset that they done that so
maybe they were right to do so. A couple of the others did come over and
got a few of the boards so that they could get started. Once they had the
board stacked up for each group, Bud gave them another assignment.
"Now I want you two Missy's to cut up twenty boards making them
exactly fifteen inches long." He ordered them.
"I'm going to kill him before the day is over." Daphne muttered
under her breath to her.
"I'm going to help you do it." Christine replied as they went over
to where the saw horses were set up. They had practiced their measuring and
hammering but sawing was something else as they had no saw to practice
with. However Wanda rushed up to help them get started. She showed them how
to place the saw and how to make sure that they sawed on the line that they
had measured out. She did one then she had each of them do a couple each so
that they would know what they were doing and she was sure that they
wouldn't cut any fingers off.
Christine and Daphne worked carefully but also as quickly as they
could. They knew that Bud was watching everything that they were doing and
they wanted to show him and everyone else that they could help. They also
wanted to show that they could do more things other than carrying lumber
for everyone else. So they got the boards cut and took them over to Bud who
made a show of taking out his ruler and measuring one. They were both
daring him with the look in their eyes to find any fault with the length
that they had cut.
"Those will do I guess; now go and cut out twenty more." Bud huffed
out dismissing them. Once the boards were cut, Bud kept them with his group
since his was short a couple of people. There he had them hold the boards
as others nailed them together. Christine knew that they were being put
down by just being allowed to hold the boards that were being nailed and
she didn't like it. And from the look in Daphne's eyes, she didn't like it
either. So as the others took a water break, Christine picked up one of the
smaller boards that they had cut out and she placed it between a couple of
the studs. She could see where the others were placed so she knew where
this one needed to go. She used her head to signal Daphne to come over and
help her. She began to nail in one side praying she didn't miss hit the
nail head and she didn't. She then had Daphne nail in the other side. They
could see everyone's eyes on them as they worked. She would rather have
taken a break with the others as she was already soaked in sweat but they
had to prove to everyone that they could do this. They had several boards
nailed in before everyone else finished their break and came back to join
them.
Bud was watching them but didn't saying anything, he did come over
after the break checking the boards that they had done. He didn't say that
they had done a good job but then he didn't have anyone redo them, so
Christine and Daphne kept on working. The others workers seem to have began
to accept them as they started to talk to them which was a start.
They all kept working until they had the front and back frames
done. Now was the time to lift them up and put the supports in before
building in the sides then the rafters would be put into place. The rafters
were just being delivered as well as a small crane to which was needed put
them in place. They needed to get the four sides built and put into place
before the rafters could go up. They only had the small crane rented for
that day so it all had to be done quickly.
"Missy I want one of you..." Bud was saying when Daphne snapped and
was in his face before Christine knew what was happening. She quickly
rushed to her side as she was afraid that Bud was going to knock her on her
ass once she had her say.
"I'm about bloody tired of you calling us Missy. We have names you
know. My mum named me Daphne and her mum named her Christine and we would
appreciate it if you would use out given names. No we demand that you refer
to us by our bloody given names!" Daphne said spitting into his face as she
shouted.
"I know we came in here ill prepared but we spend most of the
fucking night trying to make up for that. You all knew that we didn't know
anything about building houses so a little help would be nice. Now
yesterday we didn't put our best foot forward but today we are trying
to. We have showed you that we want to be here and to help; now you let us
know if you want us here." She shouted at him and she saw that everyone was
looking at the three of them.
The world seemed to stop as all eyes were on Daphne and Bud. Both
stood face to face with mere inches separating their faces and nothing was
said for a moment. Christine was beginning to get the feeling that Daphne
and Bud were taking their measure of each other and she wasn't so sure who
was going to blink first. The seconds seem to pass like hours before she
saw Bud's face crack. For the first time since they had been with the
group, she saw him smile, however she wasn't sure if that was a good sign
or not.
"I believe that you and Christine may be of service to us this
summer." Bud said and Christine let out a long sigh that made both of them
look at her and then they both laughed as she turned red.
He then turned away and walked to the middle of the house and said,
"Everyone grab the top and let's get this side lifted up." He then pointed
to the right side of the house and said, "Daphne you go over to that end,
and Christine to the other end. Once we have then upright I want you to
nail those boards that I cut an angle to each in to frame and then to the
floor. Then we'll put some more boards to support it until we get the sides
up.
Christine ran and got her board and went to her end. When she saw
Daphne get to her spot, she gave her a wink. She saw that Bud was watching
them and he had half of a smile on his face. She began to think that he was
just testing their metal and see if they had the heart to really want to
help. He wanted to know where their hearts lay and Daphne had just shown
him. She wondered if she needed to get in his face too just to prove
herself but then she figured that was something that Bud only allowed to
happen once and the next person that tried it would find themselves on
their ass. So she decided that she had best keep her mouth shut.
Bud counted to three and they hefted the side into place. Christine
quickly nailed her board in place though she did miss the nail on her first
try and hit her thumb. She yelled out a cuss word but she didn't stop to
suck her poor thumb until the board was in place. Once it was up, several
of the others came in and put a couple of more boards to help support the
front side.
"Do you want me to kiss it and make it better?" Daphne asked as she
came over to her.
Christine laughed as she took her thumb from her mouth and she said,
"Would you?" Then she stuck her thumb up without drying it first.
Daphne surprised her by taking the thumb in her hands and giving the
thumbnail a kiss, and then she proclaimed, "All better."
Christine laughed and told her, "You're crazy."
"That I am. But we had better get in place; it looks like Bud is
ready to put the back side up." Daphne told her as she went back to the
other side of the house.
They got this side up with Christine's and Daphne's help. They both
missed the nails a couple of times but they got them in place. Then it was
back to cutting boards but they didn't mind this time as Wanda was helping
them and the others were coming to get them. When they had enough to get
the sides stabilized, they were replaced in the sawing of the wood by Wanda
and another of the men so that they could put some boards in too. One of
the other men helped them and explained why each board had to go in a
specific place. It all added up to making the house sturdy and while it
would be build quickly, it had to be done right. He told them that is why
Bud was so particular in what was being done and by whom. This sort of
helped explain to Christine and Daphne why he was so mean to them but they
weren't ready to forgive him. Bud kept an eye on them as they worked but he
seemed satisfied by what they were doing. They had most of the sides put in
when they broke for lunch, which they were more than ready for since they
didn't take their morning break.
"Oh god am I hot and tired." Christine said as she sat down by the
side of the house trying to get away from a little of the blazing sun.
"Me too, on both accounts and if someone hadn't made us spend half
the night measuring everything in sight, I would be in the south of France
lying on a beach enjoying myself." Daphne said as she took a long drink of
water.
"Yea but you wouldn't have me to talk to so you would be so lonely."
Christine said smiling.
"Oh didn't I tell you, I was going to take you with me." Daphne told
her.
"If I'd known that then I would have gone with you."Christine told
her.
"Well hell, I guess it's too late now isn't it?" Daphne asked.
"Afraid so, you're stuck now." Christine said with a laugh as she
got up to get a couple of the burgers that Wanda had brought in.
When Christine came back with the burgers, they both tore into them
as they were starving to death. It was the fastest that she had ever eaten
a burger and she wanted another one when it was done. She looked over at
Daphne who was still eating hers.
"Don't even think about it." Daphne told her as she took another
bite.
Christine laughed and acted like she was going to lean over and take
a bite out of it.
"I'm going to smack you!" Daphne said laughing then she shoved the
rest of her burger into her mouth.
Christine laughed at her friend as she had her mouth stuffed full
then she laughed harder when Wanda walked over with another burger in her
hand. "Either of you want this burger, I had one left over."
Wanda then noticed Daphne with her mouth stuffed full and she began
to laugh which made Christine laugh harder and Daphne to hit her as she
tried not to choke or spit the burger all over Wanda.
"We'll take it." Christine told her reaching out for it before Wanda
dropped it from laughing so hard at Daphne. "Thank you." She added as Wanda
walked away.
"I'm going to kill you." Daphne finally spat out as she got the last
of the burger down.
"It you do that, then you'll not get any of this burger." Christine
told her.
"No, that'll mean I'll get all of that burger." Daphne said as she
snatched the burger from Christine's hand.
"Hey," Christine yelped as Daphne unwrapped the burger and taking a
big bite from it. Then she held it away from Christine as Christine pouted
at her.
But then Daphne smiled as she handed the burger back to
Christine. "Thank you," She said as she took a bite.
"You're welcome," Daphne said as she reach over pulling Christine's
hand over so that she could take another bite and so they switched bites
until there was one big bite left.
"Who gets the last bite?" Christine asked.
"We both do." Daphne said as she tore the last bite in two popping a
part into her mouth and then putting the other half to Christine's
mouth. When Christine opened her mouth, Daphne stuffed it in deep laughing
as she did so.
"Cute," Christine said when she was able to get the bite chewed and
swallowed.
"I thought so." Daphne said laughing.
"You would!" Christine said as she poked Daphne in the ribs with her
elbow causing her to groan and then laugh.
"That hurt!" Daphne then complained.
"It was meant to silly." Christine replied. "Oh god I think I could
lay here and sleep for a week." She added.
"Me too but I don't think the slave driver is going to let us do
that." Daphne said as she pointed over at Bud who was in the process of
getting up and everyone was following his lead.
He and a couple of the more agile men began to work with the crane
operator to put the rafters in as Christine and Daphne helped to build the
frames for the windows. They had to be careful and not get in the way as
Bud didn't want anyone to get hurt if a rafter was to fall, so they made
the frames away from the house. There were several windows that would
eventually go into the house so they were kept more than busy. Once the
rafters had been put into place and secured, they were able to begin to put
in some of the frames that they had made. They did more holding while the
others cut and nailed the frames into the house. But this had to be exact
and they didn't mind just doing the holding as they knew that these had to
be right. Around four, Rita and her girls showed up with fresh made
lemonade. The worked slowed for a bit as everyone fussed over the girls and
of course the baby went to Daphne and Christine wanting to be held and
played with. The little girl also decided that while Daphne held her, it
was a great time to poop. So Christine helped Daphne change her first
diaper. After which, Daphne swore that it would be her last diaper
change. The little girl, now happy again, was ready to play.
A little before six, Bud had obviously decided that they had done
enough damage for the day and they all quickly piled back into the bus for
a trip to the diner. They were all seated at a long table and Bud first
told them what was planned for the next day and Christine wanted to groan
aloud but she managed to keep her mouth shut; though when she looked at
Daphne she saw that she was getting a look that all but said "You got us
into this mess, if you had listened to me we would be on a beach in the
south of France right now."
"All I want to do right now is take a long shower and sleep."
Christine said as they left the diner leaving the rest there talking.
"Oh god that sounds nice, I'll flip you for the shower." Daphne told
her as she reached into her pocket.
"Nah, you can have it first." Christine told her being the nice girl
that she was raised to be.
"Nope, we flip, call it in the air." Daphne said as she tossed the
quarter into the air.
Christine was caught by surprise so she spat out, "Heads."
Daphne caught it in her right hand and flipped it onto the back of
her left hand covering it with her right hand. She lifted her right hand a
fraction of an inch, peeking at the coin. "Heads it is." She proclaimed.
"Hey let me see it." Christine said but Daphne had snatched the coin
up and was putting it into her pocket.
"It was heads, don't you believe me?" Daphne said as her face showed
her hurt feeling.
"No I don't." Christine told her.
"Good move but since it was my coin and I flipped it then I decide
what it was. So you get the shower first." Daphne told her.
"Okay but you get it first tomorrow night." Christine said as they
neared their room.
"Nope we flip tomorrow for it." Daphne proclaimed as she opened the
door.
"Then I get to flip tomorrow night." Christine told her.
"Nope, I get to flip." Daphne replied with a sweet smile that caused
Christine to smile though she didn't want to as it meant that Daphne's
charm was getting to her.
"Why do you get to decide who flips and who wins?" Christine asked.
"Because I do, now get your arse into that shower, you smell worse
than that's baby's shit." Daphne told her.
"Thanks, that makes me feel nice." Christine said as she stuck her
tongue out at her.
Daphne just laughed as she pointed to the bathroom as she pinched
her nose close. "I'm going." Christine said as she grabbed an oversize
men's shirt that she had gotten to sleep in at the Goodwill store and a
pair of panties. She headed into the bathroom; she took one last look at
Daphne who was still holding her nose. She laughed and before closing the
door, she threw Daphne a bird.
Once inside, she quickly stripped out of her sweaty clothes and she
looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was red from the sun and her hair
clung to her head as it was matted down with sweat. It only took her a
moment to decide that she had looked long enough at that dirty girl in the
mirror so she turned away from it and started the water. When it was warm,
she stepped in feeling the warm water wash all the dirt and sweat from her
body. She began to feel alive again as she stood under the water. She felt
like she could just stand there all night and just let that water relax her
body. She was there for a couple of minutes before realizing that there was
someone waiting to shower so she got some shampoo to wash her hair. She
finished her shower then stepped out to dry her body then quickly dried it
with a towel. She put on some body spray before putting her panties and the
old shirt that came down to just below her ass.
When she stepped out of the bathroom, she saw that Daphne had
stripped down to her bra and panties. Even though neither one was very
sexy, Daphne made them look that way. Christine stopped and stared for a
second before she stepped on into the room. "It's all yours." She told her
as Daphne got up off the bed.
"You'd better not have used all the hot water." Daphne said as she
got close to her, then as she passed by, "Well I guess that's a bit of an
improvement, at least you don't smell like that little girl's diaper
anymore."
Christine took the towel that she was using to the ends of her hair
with into her hands then she snapped it back, and then the flipped it
forward toward Daphne's panty covered ass. Daphne screamed as she grabbed
her ass. "You best keep your comments to yourself or you'll get more of the
same." Christine warned her.
"Ohhh..." Daphne said, "You got me all scared now."
"You'd better be." Christine said as she pulled the towel back.
Daphne screamed as she ducked into the bathroom closing the door
behind her. "Chicken!" Christine called her through the door.
"Let me get my towel wet and then we'll talk." Daphne said through
the door.
Christine laughed as she finished drying her hair. Then she lay down
on her bed. It wasn't the most comfortable bed in the world but right now
it felt pretty good. She closed her eyes trying to relax but her muscles
were protesting. Now that she had stopped moving, all the soreness was
coming out in her body. It seemed that every part of her body ached. She
moved around the bed trying to find a comfortable position but it seemed to
be eluding her. She tried listening to the shower running hoping that the
sound would put her to sleep and while it did make her sleepy, it didn't
put her to sleep.
A few minutes later, Daphne came out of the bathroom wearing a
similar shirt as Christine had on though it didn't go down as far on her
body. Christine looked her over and Daphne smiled at her as she came toward
her bed. She came around her bed and sat on the side of the bed that was
facing Christine.
"God that shower felt bloody good." Daphne said, "I actually feel
human again."
"Too bad you don't look it." Christine just had to reply.
"Oh aren't you the funny one." Daphne replied with a smile.
"I try," Christine said as she turned to her side to face Daphne.
"So how you feeling?" Daphne asked.
"Like I've been run over by a Mack truck." Christine told her as she
rolled back onto her back stretching and moaning. "I'd give all my
inheritance for an hour session with my mother's masseuse. Her hands can do
wonders to restore you."
"Turn over onto your stomach." Daphne told her.
"Why?" Christine asked and she saw Daphne getting up off the bed.
"Because my family had a masseuse too and she was just as good as
yours. I believe that I might be able to imitate some of her abilities. Now
roll over and let me at those muscles." Daphne told her as she stood by her
bed.
Christine lay there for a moment trying to decide if this was such a
good idea when she saw Daphne bring her arm up and she looked down like she
was looking at her watch, which she didn't have on, "This is a limited time
offer." She told her.
Christine had to laugh at Daphne's antics and that made her decide
to take Daphne up on her offer so she rolled over onto her stomach. She
pulled the pillow from under her head so she could lay flat on the very
firm bed. She felt Daphne getting up on the bed so she turned her head to
look back at her. She figured that Daphne would move to her side but then
she saw her moving on over and then she felt her legs on each side of her
legs. She was about to turn to her side when she felt Daphne sitting down
on her ass. She never had a massage done this way but then again there
wasn't a masseuse table sitting around the room that Daphne could
use. Christine felt Daphne's hands at her lower back and then she felt her
shirt being raised.
"What you doing?" Christine asked and she turned her shoulders
around and looked back at Daphne.
"I don't know about your masseuse but ours never did a massage over
our clothes." Daphne told her.
"Ours didn't either," Christine admitted as she felt Daphne pushing
her shirt up again, this time she let her. She felt Daphne's fingers going
up her sides and that made her shiver. When the shirt got up to her
shoulders, she put her arms above her head as Daphne pulled her shirt off
leaving her in just her panties. She put her hands by her sides covered the
edge of her breasts from Daphne's view but then she felt Daphne pushing her
arms from her side by a few inches.
"Now relax, I promise to be gentle." Daphne said causing Christine
to giggle and thus relax.
She felt Daphne's hands on her lower back pressing into it and while
it hurt at first, it soon began to feel good. Christine closed her eyes as
she let Daphne's hands and fingers do their magic. Daphne wasn't quite as
good at giving massages as their masseuse at home but at this moment she
was doing pretty damn well. Daphne slowly worked her way up Christine's
back working from her spine to her sides. When she got to her upper back,
Christine felt Daphne's fingers go to her sides touching just the edge of
her breasts as they were pressed down onto the bed. Christine felt goose
bumps come up on her body and she hoped that Daphne didn't notice but she
didn't see how she couldn't seeing how she was touching her back the way
she was.
Daphne got up to her shoulders and her hands stayed there longer
working the muscles of her shoulders and neck. These were the ones that
were the sorest and needed the most work. Christine relaxed so much that
she was about to fall asleep when Daphne stopped, moving down her body so
that she could work her cafes and then thigh muscles. Christine felt Daphne
push her legs out a few inches as she worked her inner thigh
muscles. Christine became very conscious of how close Daphne's fingers were
coming to her vaginal area. She could feel the beginnings of moisture
gathering in that sensitive area. Just as she began to wonder just where
Daphne's fingers might go, they left her inner thighs and Christine felt
relief but then she felt those hands and fingers on her panty covered
ass. Christine started to tell her not to massage her ass but the words
wouldn't come out, so she let her work those muscles too. This felt good
but also a little erotic making her start to get moist again. Daphne worked
her ass a few moments then she went up her back giving her a last going
over before stopping just as Christine was about to fall asleep.
However that was when Christine felt a sting on her right ass cheek
as Daphne had popped it with her hand. "My turn girl." She heard Daphne
saying.
"Ouch!" Christine yelped as she was awaken from her almost sleep
state. "That felt good, you almost put me to sleep."
"I know that is why I had to wake you back up. It's your turn to do
me now." Daphne said as Christine felt Daphne moving around on top of
her. It was only then that Christine felt something slightly moist rubbing
against her lower ass and she pretty much knew that the moisture she was
feeling had come from Daphne's pussy.
Daphne got off of her and Christine got up on her knees facing away
from Daphne. She looked around for her shirt not seeing it at first then
seeing it on the other side of the room where Daphne had obviously thrown
it. Christine was trying to think of a way to retrieve it when she saw
something being thrown in the same general direction. She glanced around to
look at Daphne and found that she was topless having just thrown her shirt
to where Christine's shirt was laying. Christine first noticed the smile on
Daphne's face then her eyes went slightly lower and she saw two of the
prettiest breasts that she had ever seen. They were firm being somewhere
between a B and C cup with darkish areoles and nipples pointing slightly
upwards which were obviously hard. Christine forced herself to look back at
Daphne's face and she saw a soft sweet smile. Then Daphne lay down on the
bed where Christine had just been laying.
Christine took a moment to get her shit back together then she moved
back beside of Daphne who was waiting patiently for her massage. She first
positioned herself to Daphne's side but she didn't really have enough room
to really work. She didn't want to sit on top of Daphne's ass as Daphne had
done to her but she didn't see any other options that would work. So she
climbed onto Daphne, sitting on top of her ass. She took a moment to look
at Daphne's body noticing her shape and seeing just how pretty she was even
from just looking at her back. However the longer she looked the more
nervous she became. So before she became a total wreck, Christine lowered
her hands to Daphne's lower back, feeling the firm but tight muscles. She
decided to put all her concentration on Daphne's muscles and not her
body. As she started to work, she would hear Daphne moan as her muscles
began to relax. She worked hard wanting to get every muscle of Daphne's
body to relax.
She did lose some of her concentration when her fingers went to
Daphne's sides and she felt the edge of her breasts. She felt something
happening in her pussy again that she wasn't sure she wanted to happen. She
quickly moved her fingers away making sure not to go there again. She went
up to Daphne's shoulders and neck making them relax. When she got done
there, she raised her ass up moving down Daphne's body so that she could
work on her caves and thighs. She saw how firm Daphne's legs were and then
her eyes went to that ass which was just perfect. She again felt something
happened that she didn't want to happen so she got to work on Daphne's
caves. As she worked her way upwards, she noticed that Daphne was opening
her legs. She had on a light blue pair of cotton panties that had a damp
spot in the middle. Christine stared for a second before looking away as
she worked the back of Daphne's thighs. She worked the tops making sure
that her fingers didn't go anywhere near that moist area. However as she
stayed away from that spot her hands were nearing Daphne's ass cheeks. Now
she was between a wet and a soft place and she didn't know where to go.
She worked the thighs another moment before deciding on the soft area. She
let her hands ride up onto those firm but soft ass cheeks. She kneeled them
between her fingers as she felt her pussy begin to twitch a bit. Christine
found she loved the feel of those cheeks in her hands as she massaged
them. But then as she became even moister, she decided that she needed to
move away from Daphne's ass so she went back to working Daphne's lower back
and then shoulders not realizing that Daphne could feel her being moistness
as she felt Daphne's moistness when she was finishing up.
When Christine completed her massage of Daphne, she heard a soft
snore coming from Daphne and she knew that she had fallen asleep on
her. Christine started to pop her on the bottom to wake her up so that she
could go back to her own bed but she didn't have the heart to do so. She
eased up off of Daphne, moving over to Daphne's bed. She lay down needing
to fall asleep but yet she couldn't get the feel of Daphne's body from her
mind. She didn't like that she was feeling this way and she knew that she
had to put that soft yet firm body as far from her mind as she could. She
tossed and turned for a few minutes but then the lack of sleep the previous
night and hard work that day took over her body and she fell asleep.
"Wake up girl, we got to get ready." Christine heard as her mind
tried to stay with the dream that she was having. But then she heard
"Better wake up or I'm returning with a glass of cold water."
This caused her eyes to pop open and for the dream to leave her. She
found that she was looking up at a smiling Daphne who was leaning over her
topless. "There you are sleepy head. That must have been a great dream you
were having." Daphne said as she straightened up but staying by her bed.
"Why do you say that?" Christine asked as she realized that the
sheet was below her own breasts and Daphne was looking at them as much as
she was looking at hers.
"Because you were moaning in your sleep," Daphne said giving her a
wink. "So what were you dreaming about?"
Christine thought for a second about what she was dreaming about
however it was gone, all she knew was that it was a nice dream that left
her feeling good. "I don't know, I really don't remember." Then Christine
realized that she still hadn't pulled the sheet up so she promptly did so.
Daphne smiled at her as she moved away from the bed, going toward
the bathroom, "If you say so..." Then as she shut the door, she gave
Christine a wink as she said, "Well I hope I have the same dream tonight."
Christine felt herself blushing at Daphne's comment and she blushed
more when she reached down and felt how wet her panties were. She got up,
going to her clothes bag, pulling out a clean bra and shirt which she put
on. Then she got a pair of jeans out as well as socks and a dry pair of
panties to wear. Daphne soon came out of the bathroom having changed her
panties but not putting on anything else. "It's all yours." She said going
past Christine on the way over to her clothes bag. Christine went toward
the bathroom taking one last look at Daphne before shutting the door so
that she could get ready for the day of house building.
When they got to the diner, Bud first gave them all the plans for
the day and what he hoped that they would get accomplished that day. It
sounded like it was going to be another busy and hard day to Christine but
at least she got a good night's sleep and she felt better starting the
day. Then breakfast was served, Christine always had to watch what she ate
to keep the pounds off but that morning, keeping the weight off was the
last thing that was on her mind. She dug into the eggs, bacon, grits, gravy
and biscuits. She glanced up at Daphne who was pushing it into her mouth as
fast as she could get it in. For such a small frame, she was packing it
in. They had barely finished their food, when Bud and Wanda had them in the
bus heading toward the house.
The first thing that Christine and Daphne were told to do was to
help put up the insulation for the outside of the house. These were black
heavy four by eight sheets which were very heavy. Two of the other men
would lift and put it into place as Christine and Daphne nailed it
up. There were four others starting on the other side of the house doing
the same thing. This wasn't as critical in the nailing since no one would
ever see these sheets. Christine missed the stud on the first try knocking
a small hole in the black sheet.
"Watch it Christine, these boards are expensive." Bud said as he
just happened to have been walking by.
"Yes sir," Christine replied feeling bad about the mistake she had
just made.
"At least he called you by your right name." Daphne told her after
Bud had walked on around the house.
"Yea but I ruined a sheet." Christine said feeling really bad and
she was about to offer to have someone take her place.
"Don't worry about it sweetie, we're going to have to cut up some of
the pieces so this can be used as one of them." One of the men told her as
he and the other guy put this piece down and got another.
Christine was very careful on the next piece making sure that she
nailed it correctly. This forced the men to hold it longer than they would
have liked but soon Christine got her confidence back and she was nailing
away. The black sheets went up fairly quickly as they worked their way
around the house. They left the area around the windows for last since that
took a little more cutting and they had to get it placed correctly. The men
did the cutting on the boards then they let Daphne and Christine put it up
by themselves. They took turns with one holding and the other
nailing. Between the two teams, they had the whole house done by lunch.
As they ate their chicken for lunch, Christine saw that sheets of
plywood had been put up on the roof. The house was beginning to look like a
home. Christine had found out that there were three men working on the roof
were actually being paid as they needed someone that knew what they were
doing to do the roof. After lunch, Daphne was put with the only other
person that was being paid and that was the plumber. Since she was slim and
limber, she could fit under the house and help him get into the tight
places. Christine meanwhile was helping to start putting in the walls
inside of the house. This had to be done before the plumber could do some
of the stuff that had to be done. The first room that they did was the
bathroom as the bathtub / shower had already been delivered and needed to
be put in place. They first had to frame each room which was confusing to
Christine at first so she just did what she was told. There were several
people working inside of the house so the framing was going up pretty
quickly. Christine saw Daphne from time to time that day and she was soaked
in sweat like her plus she had dirt all over her from crawling up under the
house. Even as sweaty and dirty as she was, she still looked so pretty to
Christine.
"You get the shower first tonight." Christine said as they walked
back toward the diner.
"Nope we flip a coin for it like we did last night." Daphne said
reaching into her pocket for a coin.
"Okay, if you say so." Christine told her giving in quicker than she
normally would have.
"I thought you would see it my way." Daphne said proudly as she
tossed the coin in the air.
Christine watched as the coin went upwards when it started to come
down, Christine snatched the coin from the air.
"Hey!" Daphne cried out as she was taken completely by surprise.
Christine slapped the coin onto the back of her hand and peeked
underneath it. "You win, you get the shower first."
"That doesn't even count, no one called it. So we got to do it
again." Daphne told her as they stood on the sidewalk in front of the
motel.
"I called it and I lost so you shower first." Christine said as she
started to walk on to the motel.
"Hey I didn't hear you call it." Daphne told her when she caught
back up.
"That's because your ears are filled with dirt which you obviously
need to clean out." Christine told her as they neared their room.
"You're sneakier that I thought you were." Daphne said with a smile.
"I learned from the master." Christine said with a smile unlocking
their door.
"That you did." Daphne said proudly.
Once inside, Daphne grabbed a clean pair of panties then headed into
the bathroom. Christine could see that while Daphne had protested getting
to shower first, she did seem to appreciate it. She did have dirt all over
her and even in her hair where the sweat had matted it down. Christine knew
that Daphne was like her and had probably never gotten dirty in her life,
even as a toddler. This was a whole new experience for both of
them. Christine sat there for a moment trying to decide what to do. She was
still hot and sweaty, even with the air conditioner going. She was going to
wait for Daphne to get out of the shower to undress in the bathroom but her
clothes were sticking to her and she couldn't stand it. So after realizing
that Daphne had already seen her breasts, there wasn't any reason to at
least strip down to her bra and panties. She unbuttoned her shirt pulling
it off and that did feel better so she went ahead and shed her jeans. This
left her in her bra and panties and while she wanted those off too as they
were soaked in sweat, she decided that was as far as she could go. She
wanted Daphne to hurry with her shower but as dirty as Daphne was, she was
going to be in there for a while.
So while she waited, she decided to call her mom since she hadn't
talked to her since they had gotten there. She didn't want to call when it
was possible that she and Daphne wouldn't make past the first day but now
it appeared that they were going to be allowed to stay and they wanted to
stay all summer. She placed the call, telling her mom all the things that
she was learning, leaving out all the trouble that they had faced the first
day. She was just ending the call when Daphne opened the bathroom door. She
was drying her hair with a towel and wearing just panties. Christine lost
her train of thought as she stared at her for a moment. Daphne giggled at
her as she stood in the doorway. Her breasts were moving some as she moved
her arms around to dry her hair. Christine finally looked away so that she
could finish up her call.
"Damn that shower felt good, thanks for letting me go first." Daphne
said as she went over to her bed sitting on the edge to finish getting her
hair dry.
"It was only fair, I went first yesterday, besides you were a lot
dirtier than I am." Christine said as she grabbed her shirt and a pair of
panties, heading into the bathroom.
Once inside, she quickly shed her bra and panties, then she stepped
into the shower. Daphne may have been dirtier but she was just as sweaty
as she was and needed the shower just as much. She water was quick to warm
up and she first stood under the spray letting the water rinse off the
sweat and refreshing her. She just stood there letting the water hit her as
the image of Daphne standing in the doorway came into her head. She hated
herself for not being able to get the image out of her head. Finally she
made herself think about the day's work and of Bud which drove any erotic
thoughts from her head and she was able to finish her shower. She stepped
out of the shower and standing in front of the fogged mirror, she dried
off. She put some lotion on her body and then before she left the shower,
she saw her body spray on the edge of the sink. She thought about putting a
spray or two on then cursed herself for even wanting to. She went for the
door then just before she opening it; she went back and used the body
spray. She cursed herself again as she opened the door.
When she saw Daphne, she was sitting on her bed still in just her
panties. She was talking to someone on the phone and Christine was
naturally curious as to who it was. She felt a moment of jealously
wondering if it was her boyfriend but then again, she had never mentioned
having one. But then Daphne said "But mum..." and Christine knew that it
was obviously her mother that she was talking to. Daphne held one finger up
to Christine signaling to her that she would be just a minute
more. Christine went on over to her bed, laying down trying not to listen
to Daphne's conversation but it was hard not to. Christine was beginning to
get the impression that Daphne was hearing the same thing from her mother
that she heard from her own. That would be confirmed when Daphne got off
the phone.
"Damn her, she still thinks that this was a stupid idea and I should
come home right now." Daphne said as she flipped her phone closed.
"Well if I hadn't talked you into staying, you would be home right
now." Christine said as she looked over at her.
"It's cool, I think I would rather be here, even if I'm so tired and
sore at night that all I want to do is sleep." Daphne told her.
"You want me to give you a massage?" Christine asked hoping that she
would say yes.
"I would love one, but since I got to take a shower first, I'll do
you first." Daphne said as she started to get up.
"No whoever takes the shower first gets a massage first." Christine
said as she sat up.
"And who came up with that rule." Daphne asked as she folded her
arms in front of herself thus framing her breasts so beautifully.
"I did, just now, besides that way I get to pop you on your ass to
wake you back up and I get to drift off to sleep as you give me mine like
someone did last night." She said arching her eyebrow at Daphne.
"Sorry about that but you were giving such a great massage that it
put me asleep." Daphne told her.
"That or the fact that you were dead tired that even a bad massage
would have put you to sleep." Christine told her.
"I was that tired but you did a great job, so good that I demand a
repeat performance." Daphne said with a smile as she lay down on her
stomach on her bed. "Well your customer is waiting and if you keep her
waiting too long then there'll be no tip." Daphne told her.
Christine laughed as she got up, "Like you'd be a good tipper."
"After that comment, you'll never know as you just lost your tip."
Daphne came back at her.
"Poor, poor me," Christine said as she got up on the bed.
Christine went ahead and sat on Daphne's ass, and for a moment she
felt Daphne wiggle her ass causing it to rub against her pussy. She wasn't
sure if Daphne had done it on purpose or was just settling down but either
way it had an erotic effect on her. Christine placed her hands on Daphne's
lower back and she began to rub and press her fingers into Daphne's
muscles. She worked hard to get Daphne's muscles to relax. After doing this
the previous night, she was more familiar with Daphne's body and which
muscles needed work. She also felt a little more confident about what she
was doing. She slowly worked her way up Daphne's back to her shoulders.
"Oh that feels good, my shoulders are killing me." Daphne told her
so Christine worked a little longer on her shoulders and neck. Then she
worked some on Daphne's upper arms getting them to relax and Daphne seemed
to appreciate the effort that Christine was putting into the massage. She
slowly worked her way back down Daphne's back going on down to the edge of
her panties. She then scooted down to Daphne's feet so that she could work
on her calves and thighs. Daphne again opened her legs some as Christine
worked the inner thighs. As her fingers got close to her pussy she could
feel the heat and she felt a slight temptation to go even closer but her
mind wouldn't let her. Still she had gotten close enough for Christine to
notice a small wet area on Daphne's panties. She had worked up to Daphne's
ass and she knew since she had massaged those firm cheeks last night, she
would be expected to do so again tonight. So she placed her hands on the
firm cheeks feeling the excitement grow in her body and her panties begin
to get moist. She squeezed and pressed on them and she felt Daphne wiggling
around and she swore she heard a low moan come from Daphne. This both
bothered Christine but in a way made her feel good. She decided to move on
from those firm cheeks before she heard another moan. She again worked on
her lower back but went quickly up to the shoulders where Daphne needed the
most attention. As she finished, she could see that Daphne had her eyes
closed so she gently eased off of Daphne not wanting to disturb her. She
had sat down on the edge of the bed, when her eyes lit upon Daphne's ass
and she remembered her slapping her awake the night before. She had her
hand above Daphne's ass before she knew what she was doing but then she
hesitated.
"Go ahead; I know you're just dying to." She heard Daphne say.
Christine looked up at Daphne who was smiling at her and her eyes
were wide open. Christine started to pull her hand back but then she saw
Daphne give her a smile daring her to pop her ass so she did. She dropped
her hand down hard landing with a loud slap.
"Ouch that stung, I didn't hit you that hard." Daphne complained as
she rubbed her bottom.
"Whose fault is that?" Christine asked.
"Don't worry, paybacks are hell." Daphne said as she sat up and
Christine got another view of her breasts, noticing that her nipples were
hard. Christine had to force herself to look up at Daphne's face which was
grinning at her.
Daphne got off the bed and she stood in front of Christine where she
was sitting on the edge of the bed. "Come on raise your arms so I can get
that shirt off of you." She told her.
Christine was face level with Daphne's breasts and she found it hard
to look away with them being so close. She was in a daze so she just did
what Daphne asked of her. She felt her shirt being pulled off of her and
she was now in just her panties before her mind cleared.
"Turn on around and lay down, you're about to get the best massage
of your life." Daphne said as she placed her hands on Christine's
shoulders moving her around so that she could lie down on the bed which she
did.
She felt Daphne get up on the bed then sit down on her ass. Her
fingers were cold when they first touched her back and she jumped a little.
"Cold hands, warm heart." Daphne said making Christine laugh but
then she heard Daphne rubbing her hands together and blowing on them. So
when they touched her again, they felt much warmer. She let her mind go as
Daphne began to massage her back. She thought for a moment about the work
that she had done that day but her mind went through that quickly. Then it
went to the hands that were touching her so tenderly and the person that
was sitting on her ass.
Christine let her mind go and while her muscles relaxed, she began
to see Daphne in her mind and she was always topless. She could feel some
more moisture come to her panties and she could do nothing to stop it. So
she lay there and enjoyed the massage as Daphne was pretty good at giving a
massage. She felt her shoulders relax when Daphne got to them and she felt
herself getting sleepy. She was almost asleep when she felt Daphne moving
down her body. Soon she felt her hands on her right calf working it and
then her left calf. Slowly she felt those hands moving up her legs to her
thighs.
She felt Daphne opening her legs up and she wanted to resist but she
couldn't. She was very conscious of Daphne's fingers as the dipped to her
inner thighs. The fingers went close to her pussy again and she was sure
that Daphne could see that she was becoming aroused though she didn't want
to be. She felt those fingers get real close and they seemed to stay there
forever but then she felt them come back up and slip up onto her ass. She
had hoped that would be better but from the way that Daphne was caressing
and massaging her ass cheeks, she was getting turned on even more. Finally
those arousing fingers traveled up to her back, and she got relief from
those damn fingers of Daphne's. She felt her body begin to relax and before
Daphne's fingers got to her shoulders, she was fast asleep.
End of Part One.
