The Holiday. Part 9

Charlotte and Sarah spent the next hour or so showing the guests to their rooms and discussing the events planned for the week. They then left them all to settle in with promises to catch up more over dinner.

Cassie and Julia both fell onto their king-size, four-poster bed, exhausted from the journey and from the excitement of meeting all of their friends. Leaning up on her elbows, Cassie surveyed the room. The thick carpet and drapes gave it a luxurious feel. The furniture was of excellent quality and everywhere smelled fresh and new.

‘Wow, this place is awesome. Gorgeous. Nice bed too. Wanna give it a whirl.’ She smiled cheekily at her lover.

Julia shook her head, frowning at the younger woman. ‘You young lady don’t deserve anything other than a long session over my knee with a hairbrush!’

Cassie pouted ‘Why? What did I do?’ hoping that she had forgotten the little tantrum she had thrown on the plane when Julia had refused to allow her to drink alcohol. Julia wasn’t being unreasonable as Cassie had a tendency to get very airsick and had taken medication to help which wouldn’t mix well with alcohol. However, in one of her petulant moods Cassie had decided to test Julia’s resolve. It had nearly ended with her getting a spanking right there on the plane but at the last moment Cassie had come to her senses and backed off. Julia though was obviously still unhappy with her.

Julia looked at her and raised her eyebrows. ‘You don’t actually think I was going to let that behaviour pass do you? After the warning I gave you before we left home too? If you are out to try and test my ability to punish you, you are going to find that I pass the test every time.’

Cassie and Julia had been together as a couple for only 10 months. They had met on the forum and become very friendly. At the time though there had been hundreds of miles between them. Julia was teaching in New York whilst Cassie was living just outside of Washington DC. When Cassie decided to go to graduate school in New York the two had met up and quickly became lovers.

Julia was a decade her senior, a gap which usually they didn’t notice but occasionally when Cassie’s behaviour deteriorated she had no problem asserting her dominance over her young lover and punishing her when it was necessary.

‘Aw Jules come on. We’re on holiday and I told you I was sorry. I was just wanting to relax on the plane and I didn’t think one drink would hurt. Can’t you let it go?’

‘Cassie it wasn’t the wanting the drink so much as the way you spoke to me. Holiday or not, that is not acceptable. You set out on the wrong foot on this trip and I am going to make sure that we end that right now and go on and enjoy the rest of our time away. Your behaviour has been going down hill the last few weeks and I blame myself for not having given you the tanning you needed then. So let’s get it over with now and then we can go down to dinner and you can start fresh.’

‘Jules, it’s not fair! I’m on holiday! I don’t want to get spanked now.’ Cassie stomped off the bed and threw her shoes into the corner.

Julia sat upright and folded her arms, narrowing her eyes she looked at Cassie and spoke softly ‘Cassie Marie Johnson. You get those jeans off, panties down and get your nose in the corner, hands on your head, right this second. Don’t you dare say another word or I swear to you I’ll make sure you don’t sit down for the rest of the holiday.’

Julia’s tone brought Cassie up short. She looked at her lover and swallowed. She went to reply but quickly thought better of it. She took off her jeans and walked to the corner. A window stood alongside her and she could clearly be seen by anyone in the garden. She looked at the window nervously and over to Julia.

‘I don’t think anyone out there will be surprised to see a naughty girl in the corner. However, I’m not sure I want your ass on display. Not until it’s a nice crimson colour anyway.’ Julia walked over and pulled the curtains over the window, She looked meaningfully at Cassie who quickly turned and put her nose into the corner, pulling her panties around her knees as she turned placing her hands on her head.

Julia went over to her suitcase and began to unpack her things.

Twenty minutes later she had hung her clothes and taken a quick shower. Wearing one of the white gowns provided she walked back into the bedroom towelling her hair. She watched Cassie standing in the corner. She knew how much she hated corner time. By nature she found it difficult to sit or stand still so corner time was difficult for her. She had earned several extra punishments over the last few months for fidgeting in the corner. This evening though she was doing pretty well keeping her nose firmly against the wall.

Cassie walked to the cupboard that Charlotte had pointed out when she showed them to their room. She opened the door and perused the implements and toys hanging there. Charlotte had explained that all of the objects were for guests use. For hygiene reasons the more intimate items, once used, were to be kept by the guest and they would be billed at the end of the week.

Cassie lifted out a leather paddle and tested it against her hand. She admired the workmanship and weight of the smooth brown paddle. She had a wooden paddle at home that she used for serious punishment but she didn’t own one of these. ‘Hmm maybe I might have to get one of these.’ She thought to herself. She placed the paddle on the bed and looked again. She chose a tawse that was made out of a thick piece of rubber. Placing that on the bed she walked to where Cassie stood. Standing right behind her she spoke into her ear. ‘Are you ready?’

Cassie, nervous as always before a punishment squeaked ‘Yes Julia. I’m really sorry. I won’t do it again.’

‘Yes. Funny how you are always sorry right before I blister your behind. Put your hands down and step out of those panties, you won’t be needing them.’ As she did as she was told, Julia reached over and grabbed her by the ear and lead her to the bed. Sitting herself on the edge of the bed she continued to pull Cassie forward by her ear until she was upturned over her knee. Putting her left hand round Cassie’s waist she pulled her close. She placed her right hand on Cassie’s bottom rubbing it gently, admiring the smooth skin and tight muscles. Shaking her head at the familiar position she brought her hand up high above her shoulder and landed a loud and painful spank on Cassie’s behind. Making no noise but sucking in a quick breath and screwing her eyes tight, Cassie waited for the next one. It came a second or two later, even harder than the first if that was possible.

Julia continued spanking her with her hand slowly but methodically. Covering each cheek up to her waist and down to her thighs. The colour soon changed from pink to a darker red. When Julia was satisfied that she had covered the whole area and her bottom was nice and warm she stopped. Her hand was beginning to tingle. She remembered the first time she had spanked Cassie, how much her hand had hurt. It had taken a LOT of practice to be able to deliver a long effective hand spanking.

Picking up the leather paddle lying next to her on the bed, Julia lay it across Cassie’s rear and judged where she wanted the first swat to land. Picking the vulnerable spot where bottom met thigh, she lifted it above her shoulder and brought it down with an almighty thwack. Cassie couldn’t keep quiet now. She shouted out with each stroke of the thick paddle as Julia thoroughly and effectively gave her the spanking she had earned.

Eventually Julia stopped and told Cassie to stand up. The young woman looking more like a naughty schoolgirl stood and started hoping around rubbing her sore backside. As she rubbed she kept up a narrative ‘Oww Jules that hurt I’m sorreeeee’

Seeming not to notice Cassie’s predicament, Julia turned and picked up the rubber tawse. ‘Cass come and bend over the bed here please, we are not done yet.’

Wide eyed, Cassie started to whine ‘Noooo. Jules! Please ma’am, I’ve had enough.’

Julia simply stood and looked at her, crossing her arms again. Noticing her stance, Cassie realised that she was getting herself in more trouble. She moved over to the bed and gave Julia the best pleading look she could muster. Ignoring her, Julia pushed her over the bed. Thinking Cassie’s bottom wasn’t in quite the right position she pulled a pillow from the top of the bed. ‘Lift up. I want that bottom in the air!’

Cassie lifted her hips without argument. Satisfied with her positioning, Julia swung the tawse and brought it down across both cheeks. The noise was more subdued than she had expected but the noise from Cassie was definitely not. She really shrieked and cried out. Julia saw a large red welt appear immediately. Never having used this implement before Julia hadn’t been sure of exactly how severe it would be. She had figured it would be harsh but was a little shocked at just how much it seemed to hurt. Initially she had been intending to give her 10 or 15 with this but quickly decided to make it 5 as a warning. Cassie was unaware of the calculations or surprise going on in Julia’s head. All that she was aware of was the fire spreading across her already sore buttocks. The next 4 licks were as painful as the first and she had tears in her eyes at the end.

‘OK. Take yourself back to the corner and no rubbing please.’ Julia said as she put the implements back into the cupboard. Looking at her lover, Julia was pleased to see that she had put her hands on her head without being told. Always a sign that the punishment had worked and Cassie was accepting her authority.

After another 5 minutes, Julia called softly. ‘OK hon. Come over here.’ Julia lay on the bed propped up by the pillows behind her. Cassie turned, her face nearly as red as her throbbing bottom. She looked at Julia, searching her face for permission to go to her. Julia smiled at her and opened her arms. Cassie went straight to her and into her arms. They hugged and kissed. ‘I’m so sorry Jules. I’ll do better I promise.’

‘It’s OK my darling. It’s over now. Clean slate, we can enjoy our holiday and have the rest that we both need.’

‘OK.’ Cassie said still subdued. Julia looked at her.

‘What is it?’ Julia knew that usually after a spanking Cassie would be sore but relieved, loving and happy. Right now she seemed very down. ‘Tell me Cass. What is going on in that head of yours?’

‘Nothing, it doesn’t matter. I should unpack and take a shower.’ Cassie went to move but Julia caught her arm and pulled her close.

‘Uhuh. Not until you talk to me. Come on before I get the paddle out again.’ Julia smiled trying to tease her into talking.

Cassie buried her face into Julia and began to cry. ‘Sweetie! What is it? Did I hurt you?’ Julia suddenly felt panicked maybe the spanking was harder than she had intended after all.

Cassie shook her head ‘No. I’m Ok. Well my bottom feels like it is on fire but it usually does when you have punished me.’

‘What then?’ Julia looked concerned.

‘I just…’ Cassie tried to get words out but felt embarrassed. Trying again she said ‘I have just been scared that you were getting fed up with me and that you were thinking of leaving me.’

‘What? How on earth did you get to that?’ Julia looked incredulous. Cassie was the best thing in her life and the only woman she had ever truly loved. Yes they were very different and the age difference had concerned her for a while but now she couldn’t ever see herself without Cassie and she thought she had shown her that, obviously not.

‘Well you seem to have been mad at me for a while and the last couple of times you spanked me you didn’t hug me afterwards you just went out and left me. I thought you were getting bored of my behaviour and needing to punish me all the time.’ Cassie confessed miserably.

Julia was totally shocked. She thought about what Cassie was saying. Yes she had gone straight out the last couple of times she had had to spank her but that had been because she had classes to teach; things had been really manic as the end of the semester had been drawing to a close. She hadn’t thought how Cassie would have interpreted that.

‘Oh baby I can’t believe that is what you have been thinking. I love you, don’t you know that? I’m so sorry you thought anything else. I know I haven’t had a lot of time for you recently because of work but that was why I wanted us to come away, so we could just focus on each other.’

‘I thought you were getting tired of me and wanted someone older, someone you didn’t need to take care of, someone who behaved better.’ Her honesty tore at Julia’s heart.

‘I will never get tired of being with you. I love you. I don’t want anyone else. I don’t care about your age or mine for that matter. I will take care of you whether you are being an angel or a little minx.’ Julia pulled her close and kissed her deeply. ‘You are mine. Your little butt is mine. I love you even when I’m mad at you. Now do I have to spank that into you or are you listening?’ Julia smiled.

Cassie smiled for the first time. Looking shyly at Julia she nuzzled into her, enjoying the closeness and warmth of her. After a few minutes of cuddling, Cassie looked up at Julia with a different kind of smile altogether. Leaning up to her she kissed her neck and up to her jaw. At the same time she slid her hand inside Julia's robe and cupped her breast. All thoughts of the pain in her bottom forgotten she explored her lover’s mouth with her tongue. Pulling away she lifted her own shirt over her head exposing her small firm breasts. Her nipples hard. Julia gasped seeing the desire in Cass’s eyes. She let her open her robe and slip it from her shoulders. Now both naked, Cass lay on top of her. Their breasts meeting. Legs entwined. Cass began to pump her thigh along Julia’s already hard clit. Julia’s hips rising to meet her with each thrust.

Cass's lips feasted on Julia's right nipple. She caught the hard nub between her teeth and bit her lightly until Julia cried out. She moved to the left nipple, feasting and reached down with her right hand and found Julia’s wet pussy. Sliding her hand through the velvet she entered her. She could smell her, making her own sex even wetter. Moaning she slid down until her face was between Julia’s thighs. She licked her and tasted her sweet juices, smelling her musky sent even stronger now. She began a rhythmic sucking and licking, thrusting her fingers inside her hot wet pussy lips. Julia had her eyes closed, hands grabbing the back of Cass’s head, pushing her deeper inside, thrusting her hips. As her hips began to jerk even faster Cass tightened her grip around her thighs keeping up the sucking and licking until Julia’s orgasm erupted, soaking Cass’s tongue.


Hearing and feeling Julia come was enough to take Cassie to the edge of her own orgasm. She straddled Julia’s thigh and rode her while Julia looked up into her eyes. ‘Come on baby, let me touch you.’ Julia groaned as she reached forward and slid her fingers into Cass. She filled her with her hand as Cass rocked her hips and in another instant cried out as she came.

Exhausted they both fell back onto the bed, Cassie still lying on top of Julia. Kissing and caressing each other they gently fell asleep.
