Cassie's New Plan(10)
“She’s shaken up a bit but fine,”the man informed. “You probably don’t remember me, but…”
“You’re Sara Foster’s dad. How are you doing?”
The man looked pleased as he shook Bryon’s hand. “Doing well. How’s the family? Last I heard was Rob being offered that position for Buffalo and that he had turned it down. Cass told me she moved in with you gentlemen,”the man added, stroking Cassie’s hair.
“She and Marge were like part of our family. We all really miss her and could not fathom having Cass move away from us. She's been a permanent fixture in our house for twelve years and we adore her,” He squeezed Cassie’s hand. “Pop’s overseas doing commercials, Rob’s working as an architect for the city, Glenn’s in college and I’m still coaching and teaching History and English at the University of Miami. How’s Sara?”
“She’s a senior now. Never thought we’d get this far. She’s been a handful!”Mr. Foster chuckled.
“It must be hard to raise her alone.”
“It is. At least you guys have each other. I’ve learned some valuable tricks, though. If you ever need any help, call me. I’ve become quite the expert in girl things over the years,”the man chuckled, handing Bryon his card. He turned to Cassie, touching her tear-stained cheek. “Think about what I said, ok?”
He drove off, leaving Cassie standing silently next to Bryon's huge frame. He sat her back down on the curb.
“You scared me.”
“You scared me too. Sorry I ran off. I was beyond thinking,”Cassie said quietly.
Bryon sighed. “I forget how big I am sometimes. I’m used to being around guys my size, not tiny, little peanuts. I think we can forget about the spoon this time, yes?”
“Yes. How about the spanking? Can we also forget that?”
“I’ll give you a choice. Me, with my hand, or Rob. I can promise he will use a belt on your bottom.”
“Oh God, no…”
“Let’s get home, then. Up you go,”he said gently, holding out his hand. He teased her about her run, commenting that she should think about joining the track team. She scoffed. The only exercise she could tolerate was ice-skating and there weren’t too many rinks to be found in Miami.
Bryon walked the girl up to her room, pushing the broken door aside.
“This probably scared you too. I’ll fix it tomorrow. No more locks.”
“Okay,”Cassie said in a small voice. Bryon sat on the bed and pulled her to sit on his lap, holding her warmly.
“I don’t like doing this. I’m usually pretty laid back about most things, but you pushed me today. The drugs, then running off... You almost got hit by that car. When are you going to accept that you mean something to us, kiddo? Why are you so resistant to letting us love you?”
“Because you’ll get tired of me, just like my father did, and leave,”Cassie finally admitted.
Bryon hugged her close. “I wish we would have known that. I know it took a lot of courage to admit your fear. Hell, if I was your Daddy I would never have let you out of my sight. Baby girl, can't you see that you’re stuck with us? We haven’t left you for all these years, even after Margie died. The day you first entered this house, we made the choice to make you part of us. You are the daughter he never had and you break his heart every time you defy him, too. He’s a good man. He deserves better.”
“Do you always have to sound so convincing?”Cassie asked, looking at the floor.
Bryon laughed. “I’m the Jiminy Cricket of this family. Most of the time. The Incredible Hulk comes out now and then when sassy young ladiespush me.”He smiled, his handsome face gazing at her with warmth. He stood her up and patted his left knee.
“Let’s get this over with. Across my knees, little one,”he said, pulling her gently across his lap. Bryon’s monstrous thighs felt like two giant tree trunks under her tummy. She gasped when he yanked her shorts down to her knees. “I’m afraid these need to come down too,”he said as he peeled her panties down over her bottom and past her thighs, leaving them to join her shorts. Her face flushed with shame and Cassie squeezed her eyes tightly, holding her breath. Thoroughly embarrassed that the third Johnson boy now got an eye-full of her naked bottom and her most intimate parts, she felt guilt washing through to her very core. She was not expecting the heavy bite when Bryon’s left hand met her bare bottom cheeks.
“OW!!”she yelped, eyes wide as she twisted to look at him. The man had a hand like a 2x8 plank! She was certain that he was going to kill her! He made the spanking Rob had given her feel like a gentle massage. The second stroke, searing her right cheek, brought an onslaught of tears. Bryon made sure to proceed very slowly and with careful and precise aim.
