This is fiction, a product of a mind warped since childhood by
dealings with devious adults with their own agendas.
If erotic stories are not allowed where you are, close this or
change countries.
Story codes: Mg*, Fb, bg*, ped, oral, anal
Our hero is gentle with the children but deals harshly with
adults when needed. If crushed elbows or bleeding bodies on the
sidewalk bother you, move on.
My inspiration was a child I never spoke with and only saw at a
distance. I had a face, a name and an age - the story was built
on that foundation.
 =============================
Thursday, 24 September, 3:10AM
Bleep! Bleep! Bleep!
Two people outside the fence at Mindy's. Moving slowly. I'd guess
they're looking for a way in. Text Sarah and Mindy and hope one
of them sees it.
'Two outside the fence. I'm coming on other side of street. Will
take the one on my side first. Jack.'
Sending slowly but it's going. Vest. Night vision. Glock with
hollow points. Shotgun with alternate buckshot and slugs. Hate to
leave Paige alone but she's safer here than with me. Across the
street using trees and parked vehicles for cover. 30 yards to go.
The one on this side has a rope over the fence. I don't think so.
Bang!
The other one is coming to investigate. He's stupid enough to try
the rope when his partner is down? So be it.
Bang!
I'm the only creature on foot within 100 yards of the house. The
other two are still alive. Let's see who they are and leave them
zip tied for the Sheriff. I think they're out of their
jurisdiction. One deputy from Washington County, PA. One trooper
from the PA State Patrol. A little first aid for each of them and
they'll be OK for an hour or more. Time to text the ladies again.
'Stopped two by the back gate. They were looking for me. First
aided and zip tied. Call the Sheriff if you haven't already.
Going back to stay with Paige.'
Now back to more pleasant things. No. I hear a vehicle. Down
behind the garbage cans where I can see between them. One each PA
State Patrol and Washington County Sheriff.
"Drop your weapons! On your knees! Hands behind your head or you
join the other two!"
"Where is he?"
"I don't see anyone."
"Maybe behind the garbage cans?"
Maybe, if you acted before you spoke. I'm 20 feet away and ten
feet up from there.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang!
Many shots do not replace knowing where your target is and being
accurate.
Bang!
"Drop your weapon and get on your knees or you're next!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang!
I'm not behind that car.
Bang!
And now I hear sirens in the distance. Tonight I did the Amelia
thing. The phone's been recording since I left the apartment.
Video won't show much but the audio tells the story. Text to the
ladies.
'Intruders down. Sheriff on the way. More later.'
"You out here, Jack?"
"Twenty feet ahead of you and ten feet above you, Pete."
"How did you know they were there?"
"Surveillance system alarmed on two bodies in motion by the
fence. When I got here, one had a rope over it and was climbing
up. Here's video but it's mostly voice and pistol flashes."
"Who are they?"
"Two Washington County, PA, deputies. Two PA State Troopers."
"Dead?"
"First two alive, first aided and zip tied. Haven't checked the
other two yet."
"They should be glad you didn't use the 12 gauge on them."
"I wanted then alive, if possible. The crap in PA is up to the
House, Senate, Governor's Office and State Supreme Court."
"Nothing like having rich, powerful and well-armed enemies."
"But their minions aren't that bright. The second one heard the
shot, came around to this side, saw the first one was down and
started up the rope himself. Paige is spending the night with me
at the apartment. I'll go back in case she's awake. Text or come
by if you need me."
"Make a copy of the video for me and I'll come pick it up. I'll
text before I knock."
"Probably a good idea tonight."
"I'm not about to present myself as a threat to one of your kids.
I know what you can do with that Glock and I have no desire to
see what you can do with the 12 gauge - especially if I might be
the target."
"Remember that texting here is slow. Wait for a response before
you come up the stairs."
"Will do. What about the others?"
"I texted the ladies that the intruders were down and the Sheriff
was coming."
"Two other units are on their way. I'll wait for them before
approaching. I will request an ambulance or two."
"I have a little girl to check on."
---
"Paige?"
"Uncle Jack? I'm sleepy. It's still dark. Why did you wake me
up?"
"Because some bad people were outside and after I checked on them
I wanted to be sure my girl was OK."
"I like being your girl. Can I snuggle now?"
"Yes."
She's back asleep quickly. I thought she would be fine. Back up
to make a quick copy for Pete. Better make two while I'm at it.
Video transferred. Copy started.
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
'On my way. Waiting for your response. Pete.'
'Come ahead. Knock three times.'
First copy is finished. Start the second one.
---
"What are these people doing here, Pete?"
"Trying to kill Jack Wilson."
"What?"
"Seems he stirred up a hornet's nest with a complaint he filed in
Pennsylvania. Last word was there was a $100,000 bounty on him."
"Who's involved?"
"Better question might be who's not involved? Warrants have been
issued for County Sheriff, District Attorney, defense attorneys,
judges, members of PA House and Senate, Governor's staff.
Estimates of the take are around $100 million."
"Guess he does have some major enemies. Let's get this crap
cleaned up."
"As usual, Jack has video of the morning's events. I'll go pick
up the copy he's making for us."
---
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Jack, it's Pete."
"Come in, Pete. Coffee's on if you need it."
"At this hour I always need it. I've been the callout guy for a
long time but I still don't function well after 2AM."
"Most of us don't."
"Paige doesn't look to be in something that fits? You didn't plan
to spend the night?"
"No, just some time doing paperwork. Then the hail came in and
would be with us until well after Paige's bedtime. I texted her
mother and she said to stay where we were. Paige was happy with
the extra one-on-one time and I was happy to not be dodging
hail."
"I can tell she's happy - even smiling in her sleep."
"I do like them a little."
"Little enough to be on the wrong end of twenty bullets."
"None of them were closer than ten feet. I spoke and then moved,
quietly. They shot where I had been. Use the headphones and you
can see the video on the big screen."
---
"These people actually passed a test for law enforcement?"
"They have vehicles, uniforms and badges. Your department should
be able to verify who they actually are."
"We do have some good charges for them. Failing to contact local
jurisdiction. Attempted home invasion. If they have a 'no knock'
warrant from a judge in PA it's not valid here. We'll know more
when CSI finishes with the cars."
"I'm more interested in how they knew I was at Mindy Davis'
house."
"You think we have a mole?"
"Who else knows I'm here? You probably heard about the air op
here."
"About twenty calls worth. Tibbets called us about a minute
before the helo called out the guys in the trees so we'd have a
heads up but no one would have time to notify the shooters. Maybe
he thinks we have a mole?"
"You and perhaps four other deputies have been here.
Communications knows where recent calls have been. Records has
each call logged. The Sex Offender Unit has my current address
from documents filed to remove me from the registry but that's
not Mindy's address. We need to set something up so that
different groups in the Sheriff's crew get different information.
Then we see where the PA folks show up."
"Your suggestions?"
"There are a group of calendar entries in this folder. Each one
has me at a different place at two hour intervals. Let the info
'slip' and note who has access to that particular item. Keep this
between the two of us."
"Will do. I do NOT want to have this bastard involved in law
enforcement where I am."
"We should know in a couple of days."
"I should let you go back to bed, Jack. You have a world of crap
to deal with tomorrow."
"At least I'll sleep well."
"With a kid in bed with you?"
"With one of a select few kids. I am calmer and more productive
when one of them is curled up in my lap and I sleep better when
one is using my shoulder for a pillow. I can't explain it; I just
enjoy the benefits."
"Go enjoy. Sunrise will be here all too soon."
One last text to the ladies.
'Pete in charge of cleanup. We'll get details of what he finds.
Jack.'

Thursday, 24 September, 6:10AM
Beep!Beep! Beep!Beep! Beep!Beep!
Enough of that. My little snuggler is still in place and still
smiling.
"Good morning, Paige."
"Good morning, Uncle Jack. I like this alarm clock. Can I pretend
to be asleep and you wake me up again?"
"No, but you may have another kiss."
"Nice. I gotta potty!"
"Go."
"It doesn't burn."
"And it didn't hurt to walk?"
"No."
"Maybe I had a reason for limiting how much you did last night?"
"I didn't like it then but now I know why. You're nice."
"I might like you a little bit."
"I know. I'm hungry. It's not cold like yesterday. Why?"
"Wipe and wash your hands. The weather changed last night. The
rain and hail that kept us here were part of a warm front that
will give us very nice temperatures this week. Get dressed. Dress
or jeans and tee shirt?"
"Dress. Warm enough for swimming, Uncle Jack?"
"Probably."
"I like your butt squeezes. Swimming every day?"
"Days that we have enough water for showers. If we use some of
the water here for showers, you can probably swim two days this
week. Socks and shoes."
"Tie my shoes? Today?"
"Tie your shoes? Don't you have shoes with the sticky flaps?
"But I get hugs and cuddles when you tie my shoes."
"I don't think it's warm enough for swimming today. In a day or
two."
 "When the others are swimming, can we do the thing with me in a
dress and your thing in my butt and we walk around the yard?"
"Maybe. Remember that all of you usually want me in the pool with
you."
"I'll think about another way."
"You do that, little planner."
---
"I liked helping make pancakes. Can I do that next time?"
"You can help me cook whenever you're here. Remember that I only
have you doing the things that you can do safely."
"I know. You're always taking care of us. Can I get some
kissy-face before we go back?"
"How much kissy-face would that be?"
"My dress is off! Kiss me and lick me and rub me and…"
"Everything that doesn't make you walk funny?"
"Un huh!"
"Sit across my lap. Spread your legs."
"Nice! You kissed me and gave me your tongue and rubbed both
nipples and my button! Do me again!"
"Turn and put your legs around me."
"Nicer! A big kiss and a tight hug and a butt squeeze and a back
rub!"
"And time for you to settle down, little horny girl. You've had
me for most of a day and you've had a lot of touchy-feely time…"
"And a bunch of orgasms! I tingle a little when I think about
it!"
"Who can you tell, Paige?"
"Momma if she asks but she won't."
"How do you know that?"
"I just know."
"Remember the tingle because it's someone else's turn."
"It's Rachel's turn now. Hey! I didn't make my name bracelet!"
"Computer and printer are on. Turn to face the screen. Type in
your name. Use the mouse to pick one of these fonts. Click here
for a wristband. Click print."
"It's moving."
"You can get a little more kissy-face while it prints but only
kissy-face. I see that gleam in your eye, you insatiable horny
little girl."
"In-saint-able?"
"Insatiable. You never get enough until you faint."
"That's how I know I've had enough. I have to sleep to let it
wear off and make room for more."
"So letting you sleep after an orgasm just makes you want more.
Guess I should have you running around the block instead."
"I'd be wired to go!"
"I think you would be. Turn for one more kiss and hug and butt
rub and squeeze."
"That was so good! Do me again?"
"Get your dress on then we can get your bracelet out of the
printer."
"Help me?"
"As in squeeze your butt and kiss your nipples and blow a
raspberry on your belly button?"
"Not the raspberry! That tickles! Not again! Gotta pee!"
"Go pee and then your dress."
"OK."
"Wipe and wash your hands."
"OK."
"Come get another kiss."
"Yes!"
"Now the dress."
"If I hafta."
"You 'hafta'. Now your backpack, unless you want to leave the
bracelet here."
"No! I want it!"
"Here you go."
"It's upside down."
"Looks fine to me. Turn your arm so it's next to mine."
"If I want other people to read it, it's upside down to me. If I
want to read it, it's upside down to them. Can you make one with
my name both ways?"
"I have a question or two for you. Do you know what it says?"
"Uh huh. 'Paige'."
"Do other people know what it says?"
"Not 'til they read it. Oh - it should be so they can read it
'cause I already know what it says!"
"Very good, smart girl."
"You just ask the right questions."
"That's also a 'smart girl' answer. Get your backpack."
"Yes, Uncle Jack. It was nice having you just for me all day and
night. Can I do it again?"
"I think we'll also have to find a way to do that for five other
girls."
"Yeah. They'd love it too."
"What can you tell about our time?"
"The video thingie was boring but they had a crazy toilet. I got
mac and cheese and pears for supper. You read me two new books. I
slept in a sweatshirt so big I couldn't find my hands. I got a
nice wake up. I got to help make pancakes. I made my bracelet."
"Time to go."
"Carry me?"
"After all the attention your pretty little butt got yesterday,
you still want more?"
"The rubbing makes it soft and smooth."
"Nice try but still no carry. I'll only do that when you can't
walk."
 "Ow! It hurts to walk."
"Too late. Remember that I was behind you when you went bouncing
down the stairs."
"I'm busted."
"I will hold hands with a pretty girl."
"I like that too."
---
Bleep! Bleep! Bleep!
"Who is it, Amelia?"
"Uncle Jack and Paige. I think she had a good time - she's
smiling and almost dancing."
"I'd be that happy if I got him for a whole day and night."
"Me too."
"Me."
"Me."
"Me."
"Girls, remember that Paige's day didn't start out that way…"
"The video thingie was boring…"
"But the toilet was crazy."
"And staying with Jack overnight wasn't planned - the weather
changed his plans."
"Yes, Momma. Paige is in a dress and no jacket. Is it that warm?"
"A warm front brought the rain and hail last night and much nicer
days this week."
"Warm enough to swim?"
"Maybe later in the week."
"Does the rain mean we have enough water for showers?"
"You want to go check?"
"Yes!"
Knock! Knock!
"Hi, Poppa! Hi, Paige."
"Hi, Alicia. Did your mother tell you about what happened last
night?"
"Just that somebody tried to climb the fence and you stopped
them."
"Momma, the barrels are full… Uncle Jack!"
"Hi, Amelia. Any reason for the hug that almost keeps me from
breathing?"
"The yelling woke me up last night. I saw them shooting at you! I
thought you were gonna die!"
"Let me sit and you get in my lap."
"OK."
"I'm fine. Remember what I've told you about confronting people
from concealment?"
"You speak and move."
"That's what I did."
"But I didn't know that! I was scared! I thought I'd never see
you again! I don't want to lose another Daddy!"
"Head on my shoulder and let it all out."
Poor little girl. Probably didn't say anything after she knew I
was OK - just kept it bottled up to not scare the others. What a
loving, caring person. She's in hard hiccups. Better get her to
the porcelain throne. And just in time. Hold her hair back to
keep it clean. Rub her back. Those heaves were violent. Let's get
her face cleaned up.
"It burns!"
"Here's some water. Rinse and spit. Again and swish it around
more. Once more."
"My throat hurts!"
"Gargle and spit. Again. Now take a drink and swallow. Better?"
"Un huh. Hold me?"
"Brush your teeth."
"Do I hafta?"
"You mouth will taste better."
"OK."
"Now back to the big chair."
"Carry me?"
"Arms around my neck. Legs around my waist. Watch your left leg
so you don't get scraped by the pistol."
"OK."
"We're back. Amelia, let go so you can get in my lap."
"OK."
"I think we all know what I'll be doing for a while…."
"What you do best - make us feel safe and loved."
"Thank you, Alicia. The people I stopped last night were looking
for me…"
"No! They can't have you!"
"Amelia, they won't get me. Let me explain. I once lived in
Pennsylvania. Someone there said that I did some bad things and I
was arrested. The entire process of detectives and attorneys and
a judge was done wrong. I wasn't the only one this happened to.
Some of the people in law enforcement and the court system had
made a side business of falsely charging people with crimes and
then getting paid to let those people off with a light sentence…"
"That's not right!"
"It's not, but they were making lots of money from it. I filed a
complaint about the process and named specific people and their
actions. Other people did also. Someone at a high level in the
state government started a secret investigation to see if what I
said was true and who was involved. A lot of the people who did
those things are now in jail but some of the top people are
trying to kill me because I was the squeakiest wheel that got
attention and shut down their dirty business. The people here
during the night were two deputies from a county in Pennsylvania
and two Pennsylvania state troopers. They're in jail here. With
the video I made last night as evidence, they won't be going back
to Pennsylvania…"
"You didn't kill them? They wanted to kill you!"
"Amelia, I wanted them alive so the Sheriff can question them and
find out who sent them. It's better to have him bring charges
against them than for me to just kill them. There's also the
consideration that bad cops get treated badly by the other people
in prison…"
"They might get beat up every day?"
"Yes, that sort of thing."
"I hope somebody kills them!"
"That's also possible, Amelia."
"Good!"
"Back to where I was going originally. The warmer days give us a
reprieve on installing the other convection furnaces but also
mean we need the additional solar panels up to take advantage of
the sun. When this sweetie feels better, I'll do the roof work
and one of the adults can get the solar panels up the ladder to
me."
"Can I just snuggle for a little while?"
"For as long as you need."
"Kiss me goodnight?"
"Goodnight, Amelia."
"Goodnight, Daddy."
"She's already asleep?"
"Sarah, she's been holding back an emotional roller coaster since
3AM. She didn't say anything because she didn't want to scare the
other girls. With that kind of turmoil going, I'm surprised that
she didn't crash as soon as she put her head on my shoulder."
"She told you this?"
"No, I just read what she said and how she acted."
"She does try to protect the other girls."
"Sarah, do you remember the time the Major was here and the girls
had been in the basement?"
"When Amelia was in there with the rifle?"
"Tibbets told me that she was one of the scariest people he'd
ever been around - always on watch, weapon at the ready. A combat
veteran found a nine year old girl scary? There's no question
that she takes responsibility for the others - a lot more than
she should but we can't always prevent that - so she told me by
her choice not to tell the others."
"You want to put her down in one of the beds?"
"No. I think she needs physical contact even if it's just being
asleep in my lap. Let's give her an hour. I think the other girls
might like some time outside in the sun."
And Alicia starts giving them ideas for outside things and
herding them to the back door. Smart girl to not be visible. I'll
compliment her on that when I have the opportunity. What time is
it? 10:30AM I've not heard chainsaws today so that part of the
power restoral may be finished around us. Now we wait for the
lines to be repaired or replaced. Amelia's stirring. Mumbling.
Bad dream already?
"No! Don't kill him! :No!"
"Amelia?"
"Don't shoot!"
"Amelia!"
"Daddy?"
"It's Uncle Jack."
"You are my new Daddy. You risked your life for us. Nobody else
loves me that much. I know. I can't call you Daddy in front of
other people unless you marry Momma but no matter what name I say
you'll always be 'Daddy' in my heart."
"I love you, too, sweet girl."
"I know."
"Want to finish your nap?"
"In bed? Just for a shoulder."
"Yes."
"Carry me?"
"Yes."
"Make love to me?"
"No. Just a shoulder."
"I was on a roll with you saying 'yes' so I had to ask."
"That's what I thought so I didn't swat your bottom for
misbehaving."
"Not fair. You read us too good."
"I'm an uncle. That's my job."
"And sometimes a Daddy."
"Sometimes. Shoes off. And your belt."
"Jeans too?"
"Only if I need better access to swat your butt."
"OK. Just shoes and belt."
"Make your nest."
"I'm there."
"Nice smile."
"Kiss me goodnight?"
"Goodnight, Amelia."
"Goodnight, Uncle and Daddy and lover."

Thursday, 24 September, 12:30PM
"Jack, lunch is ready."
"Be there as soon as I wake Amelia."
"Good afternoon, Amelia."
"Nice wake up, Daddy. I know - Uncle Jack the rest of the day."
"Yes. Today and every day. Lunch is ready."
"Lunch? Didn't I just eat breakfast?"
"But you lost your breakfast and you've slept two hours since
then."
"Oh - I did. Maybe I am a little hungry. But I'd rather spend
time with you."
"Cool it, horny little girl. You need to eat so you'll the energy
for the things you usually want to do when you're with me."
"You're right, Da…Uncle Jack."
"Remember to keep that name on the tip of your tongue and the
other one under your big toe."
"You're silly, but I understand."
"Belt and shoes for you and we'll go eat. Then I'll get ready for
today's video conference."
"Can I stay with you there?"
"I know you want to be with me all day but whose turn is it?"
"Rachel. I could only be with you if she doesn't want to."
"Correct, sweet girl."
---
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
"Your phone, Poppa?"
"Yes - and right in the middle of lunch."
"Who is it?"
"Two 'who's."
"What?"
"Messages from the Major and Mister Pete."
'Expect comms truck at 13:30. Tibbets.'
"I'll be doing the video conference in the big truck again
today."
"Poppa?"
"Yes, Rachel?"
"Can I swap turns with the next girl? Paige said it was boring
and she woulda had a really hard time being still if she hadn't
napped most of the time. I don't nap very long and I don't wanna
be bad when I'm with you."
"You wouldn't be 'bad' if you couldn't be still that long. A lot
of adult things are boring for kids. I think it's very good that
you're thinking ahead about things and you're asking this before
we get started. Amelia, you're next in sequence. Will you swap
with Rachel?"
 "Yes!"
"Let's make a note on the chart that you two made this swap so
there's no confusion next time."
"OK."
"Can we go back outside, Momma?"
"Yes, Leah."
"Uncle Jack, how long will I be with you in the truck?"
"Perhaps as long as two hours. They gave a start time but not an
end time."
"Will you go to your apartment like with Paige?"
"I'll probably have things to do there. Paige got to do both so
you should also. Go pack the things you think you'll need and
remember a snack in case you get hungry before the conference
ends."
"Yes, Uncle Jack."
"You remembered."
"My big toe is busy."
"You're silly."
"I got it from you."
---
"Poppa?"
"Yes, Rachel?"
"You're not mad that I didn't want to go in the boring truck?"
"No. I'm not mad. I think my little sweetie decided to be nice to
someone else."
"Does Amelia know?"
"No. I won't tell her now. Maybe later. I love my loving, caring
granddaughter."
"I love being your granddaughter and doing things like you
would."
"I rather like you."
"What was that hug and kiss for?"
"Because you are such a joy to know."
"But I'm just a dumb slut."
"No! You are my smart girl. What other people may have called you
is not who you are. You are what you do and how you treat other
people. I love the person who lives behind your eyes and between
your ears."
"The me inside my head?"
"Yes. That smart and loving and caring and pretty girl."
"I love you too, Daddy."
"When can you say that?"
"When it's just us and you treat me like a real daddy would -
which is all the time. So whenever it's just us."
"Just remember to keep 'Poppa' on the tip of your tongue and
'Daddy' under your big toe."
"I will. I want you to always be here."
"Uncle Jack? I need your help."
"I'll go take care of Amelia. You go pee before you leak. I don't
think you can get your legs together any tighter"
"Yes, Poppa. You're always taking care of us."
"Yes, Amelia?"
"What do I wear?"
"Jeans are probably fine. If they need more cooling for the
electronics in the truck, you might want a jacket."
"At your apartment?"
"Whatever you're comfortable with but 'naked' isn't a choice
now."
"A dress so I can ask you for something special?"
"Yes. You know that you may always ask. I may not always give you
the answer you want."
"I know, especially when I want 'again' and you say 'not walk
funny'."
 "Correct."
"I just can't wait!"
"Other than bouncing off the walls and ceiling, you're doing OK
waiting."
"Uncle Jack!"
---
Thursday, 24 September, 1:20PM
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
"Your phone, Uncle Jack?"
"Yes. From the Major."
'Comms truck will be there in ten minutes. Heard you had visitors
last night. Need to talk. Tibbets.'
"The truck will be here in ten minutes. The Major wants to talk
with me. After last night, I don't think he'll be talking only
about local recovery. You have everything you need, Amelia?"
"Yes, Uncle Jack. Is that a helicopter?"
"Yes. Sounds like the gunship that was here before. Let's go out
back and look."
"It's green - and big!"
"And armed for bear. Chain gun. Rockets. Air-to-air and
air-to-ground missles. The pod out front is probably FLIR.
Perhaps usable on the shady side of things today. He's flying a
search pattern. Sarah! Mindy! Get the girls inside!"
"What's up, Jack?"
"That helo is flying a search pattern. Don't know if they have
knowledge of hostiles or are just being cautious after yesterday.
Don't want to present any more targets than necessary. Got a text
from Tibbets that he 'needs to talk'. May not be anything
positive. I'll let you know when I know."
"Jack, the scarier things get, the shorter your sentences get.
Why?"
"Understanding. Easier to understand two short sentences than one
long one. Better understanding means faster response. Faster
response means more likely to stay alive."
"Amelia, one more thing."
"A bullet proof vest?"
"Bullet resistant. If you want to be with me, you'll let me care
for you as I think appropriate."
"After last night I'm not complaining, I just wanted to know."
"Poppa, the truck's here."
"Thank you, Leah."
"There's more Humvees than before, Uncle Jack."
"Thank you, Celia."
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
'Two squads approaching your location. One in front, other from
block behind you. Tibbets.'
"Seems the Major really thinks things are heating up."
"What?"
"He's deployed two armed squads to cover the area outside the
fence."
Bleep! Bleep! Bleep!
"And there they are. Is someone out front, Alicia?"
"The Major. Let him in?"
"Yes."
"Thank you, Alicia. I see you knew we were coming. Jack, I heard
about last night. It's also gotten to the top of the chain of
command. I'm not sure what's going on, but I have authorization
from the President for ground support up to and including Abrams
tanks and air support up to but not yet including nukes and that
'yet' is in the authorization. There's a couple of reams of paper
listed as 'supporting documentation' that spewed out of the
printer so fast that I haven't yet read the summary."
"Welcome to my world, Tom. I wrote a summary in the wee hours of
the morning while waiting for the adrenaline rush to ease. This
is where things were then."
---
"Well, Tom? I would guess from the President's involvement that
the corruption extends wider than Pennsylvania and higher than
their Governor."
"Excerpts from the interviews of the ones you stopped during the
night point to almost every bleeding heart liberal in politics.
They'll spend our tax dollars to feed and house illegal aliens
because their primary income isn't taxed. The take across the
country has to be in the billions. Based on the number of sudden
'trade' and 'aid' and 'investigative' trips out of the country
being planned by these people, the President has closed all
airports - even small private ones - until some 3,000 warrants
are served. There have been some very hush-hush activities going
on in the last month or so and I'm inclined to believe they've
been investigating this group for some time. Their actions
against you just brought things to a head: four out-of-state law
enforcement officers attempting a middle of the night home
invasion is big news and the national media picked up on it."
"I haven't seen any TV trucks - not even the guy that used to be
with Fox."
"You won't in the near future. There's a half mile circle around
you with very limited access. I used the President's
authorization and put an Abrams on each road in. The one TV news
crew who didn't stop when flagged did stop when they ran into the
tank. The others have moved well back from the perimeter. You'll
have 24/7 security here until further notice. After these squads
sweep the area, the remaining security teams won't be visible and
won't trip your surveillance. Yours is good, but we know where
its outer perimeter is. I had the troops scouting start at the
park and examine the Humvee with the damaged .50. I pointed out
the weapon, its damage and this house and asked if they
understood who might be here. I got two answers: sniper or SEAL.
I told them it was a SEAL sniper and to operate accordingly. Any
alerts you get will not be one of us."
"Conference still on?"
"Yes. I see Amelia has a backpack. Her turn to be with you?"
"By the schedule on the fridge, it's Rachel's turn but Paige said
it was boring in the truck except for the crazy toilet. Rachel
isn't quite as patient as Paige so she said she'd swap with the
next girl so Amelia gets today."
"These kids are amazing. I have troops that don't think things
out as well as they do. Rachel, would you like to be one of my
soldiers?"
"Not yet. You don't have a gun I can carry and I want to take
care of myself."
"I'm definitely out of my league here, Jack. Maybe she'll take my
job when she's 18?"
"I've learned to make very few assumptions about my girls."
"Probably wise. Ten minutes to conference time. Local status is
still green."
"Hold my hand, Uncle Jack?"
"Of course. Remember what I said about run, skip and hop?"
"Un huh."
"Let's go."
"Major, did I just see a kids' game used to confuse a potential
sniper?"
"I think so, Sarge. It's impossible to lead someone who's moving
that erratically. Jack certainly thinks outside the box."
"That was fun, Uncle Jack. The reason we did it was scary but
doing it was fun."
"Very good, smart girl. I'll be in this big chair, so you can
have a lap position for reading or napping."
"I'll read for a while. I brought four books. Napping on your
shoulder is always good. Can I see the toilet Paige talked
about?"
"It's over here."
"It's tiny! And this lever does the sink?"
"Yes."
"Lot of stuff for such a small room."
"Trying to have everything needed if someone was on duty in the
truck for days at a time. It's almost time - see the countdown on
the screen?"
"Two minutes and ten seconds."
"Correct. Make your nest."
"OK. I'm good."
"Yes, you are. Almost all the time."
"I love you too, Uncle Jack."
---
"Updates are being sent to all conferees. Jack, you probably
already know at least some of what's coming. Let's take ten
minutes while everyone gets this next load of paper."
'I gotta pee.'
'Toilet's there, Amelia.'
'I know - but how do I flush it?'
'This button.'
'OK.'
'I'm done.'
'My turn.'
'You're silly, Uncle Jack.'
'I get it from my girls. You want your snack?'
'Getting it.'
'I see two brownies.'
'I brought one for you.'
'You're sweet. But maybe not as sweet as the brownie. Guess I
need a bite of rib to compare it to.'
'You're still silly but you can get the bite of rib later.
Countdown again.'
'I see. Back in my lap?'
'Better than the other chair.'
'What's in your notes?'
'Things I want to ask you about when you have time to explain. If
I write them down, I won't forget any of them.'
'They're back.'
---
"My thanks to everyone for their participation. Jack, would you
switch to feed 5?"
"Yes, Colonel."
"Amelia, you're a very impressive young lady. You seemed to be
reading and listening to the discussion. I saw you writing?"
"I made notes about things I wanted to ask Uncle Jack when he had
time to explain. If I wrote the questions down, I wouldn't forget
any of them."
"Then you're more impressive than I initially thought. Not all of
the attendees were wise enough to do that. You are welcome to
attend with your Uncle Jack any time."
"Thank you."
"Smart, beautiful and well-mannered. Jack, I'll trade you both my
twelve year old grandsons for her."
"No!"
"Sorry, Colonel, but no trade even if she hadn't said 'no'
first."
"I can understand that. Wish I had better news about the power
restoral in your area. The best estimate for a replacement
transformer is two weeks with a worst case of six weeks. Can you
manage that long?"
"We're doing OK for a farm in 1920, we just don't have a garden
or chickens."
"Would a greenhouse work?"
"We'd discussed getting one that covered the pool and some of the
area around it."
"Get the dimensions and send them and some pictures to the email
address on the screen. This is something I can do for you."
"Thank you, Colonel."
"No, thank you, Jack for being a resource for so many people and
for taking care of our future. If all the kids you're caring for
are like Paige and Amelia, our future will be in very good hands.
See you tomorrow at 1500."
"He really thinks I'm special?"
"Yes, sweetie. You are thoughtful, intelligent, curious, a good
planner and a good worker. Most kids aren't half of those things
so, yes, he's impressed because you're special."
"He thought Paige was special too?"
"Because most four year olds can't be patient that long. My girls
aren't what people expect kids to be - you're all people with
unique abilities."
"You just did a hug with words!"
"And here's a real hug."
"Even better. We're going to your apartment?"
"There are some things I need to do there but we'll check back
with your mother and Miss Mindy before we go."
"I can go?"
"I think I said 'we'. And I think you need some shoulder time
again."
 "Un huh. Some of what I understood was scary and I think your
answers to some of my questions might be even scarier."
"First we check in here. Then we go do questions. If you need nap
time, I have a lot to read before tomorrow."
"Momma's on the roof!"
"And your Grandpa Joe is carrying solar panels up to her."
"I didn't know she could do that."
"There are probably a lot of things your mother can do that
you're not yet aware of. She asked me about it when you were
asleep in my lap this morning and I make some sketches for her."
---
Thursday, 24 September, 4:40PM
"It seems you're making progress without my presence, Joe."
"Solar power sounds highly technical but the assembly isn't much
more complicated than changing the batteries in a flashlight. It
only works if everything is connected correctly and screwed down
snugly."
"And you know not to put a big panel in front of a smaller panel
and shade the smaller panel when the sun is lower in the sky."
"That too, Sarah. Amelia was surprised to see you on the roof."
"She'll probably be more surprised to learn that I helped Dad
reroof the house when I was in high school."
"She did, Grandpa Joe?"
"Yes, Amelia. Including carrying bundles of shingles up the
ladder. I think even the football team noticed her muscles that
year."
"You had muscles, Momma?"
"Next time we're at the house I'll look for my yearbook for that
year."
"I have some reading to do and Amelia made a list of questions
she had about things that were discussed today…"
"She wasn't a pest?"
"No, Sarah. The Colonel who chairs the conference complimented
her on her attention and that she wrote down things she wanted to
know more about later. He said she was wiser than some of the
attendees because they didn't do that. I know she needs some
shoulder time because some of the things she understood were
scary and she anticipates that the answers to some of her
questions may be scarier. I'd say she's a very wise girl. I don't
have a guess on how long we'll be. My stack of reading is a
couple of inches thick. Amelia has at least a full page of
questions…"
"Two pages."
"Even more then. Text me with an estimated time for supper. If
we'll be at a breaking point then, we'll eat with you. If not,
she can help me cook."
"That grin tells me she'd rather help you cook."
"Uncle Jack does some fun stuff with food."
"Like his oatmeal?"
"Un huh!"
---
"Mr. Wilson?"
"Yes?"
"Sir, I'm Corporal Weston and this is Private Thompson. We're
assigned as personal guards when you're on foot in the area. I
was briefed by Deputy Connors so I know that you may be more
situationally aware than we are. Don't let us screw up too
badly."
"Corporal, let me give you my picture of the street as we go and
you can compare it to yours. Dixon house on the right is vacant.
She has diabetes and they needed refrigeration for her insulin.
Staying with friends. You have one man in the back yard and one
on the roof. Wahlbom house across the street. Planters out front
are concrete and likely bullet proof. Shutters are probably
laminated wood and metal from the size of the hinges. I've seen
someone on watch on the second floor after dark several times.
Not the same person or in the same place. Weapon is bolt action
rifle with scope. You don't have any one there. Cannon house on
right. Skousen walls and bullet proof under .50 caliber. Same
type shutters. Someone's been on watch each time I've been by
after dark. Either at a window or in a tree. You have one man on
the garage roof. Haverson house across the street. Planters are
wood but more than a foot from front to back so bullet proof
until major damage is done. Someone has been on watch each night
from upper window, balcony or tree. You have two men in the back
yard. Pope house on the right. They're staying at the Davis house
except that Amelia is with me at the moment. You had two men in
the back yard until they heard us coming and moved to the other
side of the house. Garage apartment is my place and where we're
headed. Weapons include the Glock on my belt, a 12 gauge with
alternate buckshot and slugs, an AR15 and a Barrett .50. Your guy
on the deck probably wet his pants trying to find a way down. Did
I miss anything?"
"The Deputy said you were good but this is fantastic. The one on
the garage roof isn't ours. Thompson called it in when you
mentioned it. They're converging on him from other houses and a
squad is coming from the next block."
"Six man squad. Two badly out of shape for this. Too many keys
and too much change in all their pockets."
"Sir, could you teach us? You're a lot better at this than we
are."
"Let's find out who the roof climber is."
"Let me go! I didn't do nothing! I'm a citizen! You can't do this
to me!"
"ID is Walter Davis. Says his brother lives where we're
centered."
"Looking to punish Mindy and her kids for getting Carl and the
others in jail?"
"Yeah! And the bastard that tore up Carl's elbow and knee."
"Corporal if you'd hold my weapon. Walter, I'm the one that tore
up Carl's elbow and knee. I also killed three of the last group
that tried to break in and 'fix' Mindy and her girls…"
"I'll get you!'
"If you'll let him go."
"Are you sure, sir? It'll be my ass if you get hurt."
"I'll resolve any problems with Tom the next time I see him."
"Yes, sir. Release the prisoner."
"I'm gonna stomp your ass!"
"Swing and a miss: strike one."
"Stay still so I can clobber you!"
"Swing and a miss: strike two."
"I'll get you this time!"
"Swing and a miss: strike three. My turn."
"Arrrgh! My arm!"
"Giving up so soon?"
"I got a knife!"
"But you need to be standing to use it."
"Arrrgh. My leg!"
"Drop the knife."
"No! I'll kill you if you get close!"
"Your choice."
"Arrrgh! You kicked my knee!"
"Drop the knife."
"Just don't hit me again!"
"Your prisoner, Corporal. By the way, was any of your squad
watching around us while this was going on?"
"I think we failed on several counts, sir. We really need better
training."
"I have a book for you."
"A book?"
"It's about practical situational awareness."
"Where we just were."
"And you missed the two who were in the bed of the truck but are
now headed back to Mindy's. Amelia, stay here. Corporal, keep her
safe…"
 "With my life, sir."
"You two, on me. Make just enough noise that they know you're
coming - but slowly. I'll be on the other side of the street.
When I call, back me up. Go."
"You two! Davis family! Drop your weapons and on your knees!"
"Where is he?"
"I don't know. There's noise that way."
"But he's over there."
"Last chance! Drop your weapons and on your knees! Walter's elbow
and knee look like Carl's. You're next."
"No, he's the other way."
"UMPH!"
"No, I was above you in the tree. Guard troops. Garbage
collection time."
"Yes, sir."
---
"You OK, Amelia?"
"Yes, Uncle Jack. I think the soldiers were more scared than I
was. One of them wet his pants. I only get scared when someone is
shooting at you."
"Sir, I saw it but I don't believe it. What you did was amazing!"
"No, Corporal. That's what SEALs do. Walk around back with us. I
think the guy on the deck injured his ankle when he tried to
slide down the support. And I have a book for you."
"Up the stairs, Amelia. Stay behind me."
"Yes, Uncle Jack."
'The door's open. You squat down and stay right here.'
'You're scaring me.'
'I know. Be very still and quiet.'
Cigarette smoke? Someone stupid has been here. Sound of a lighter
and a flash from the bathroom. What do I have that will disable
and not make the place unlivable tonight? Yes. Just a half a cup.
Follow my nose. I see the glow of the cigarette in the reflection
on the TV screen. He's looking the wrong way.
"Hey!"
"My eyes! I'm blind!"
"On your knees!"
"I can't see!"
"Can you feel this gun against your head?"
"I'm doing it!"
"Amelia!"
"Yes, Uncle Jack?"
"Go down and tell Corporal Weston that I need him and two men up
here now."
"On my way."
---
"ID is Harold Johnson. Pennsylvania Bureau of Investigation."
"He has an appointment with either the Major or the Sheriff."
"How'd you know he was here?"
"Door wasn't closed. I always lock it. He was stupid enough to be
smoking. I smelled the smoke. Saw the flash from the bathroom
when he lit the next one. Used the reflection of the cigarette's
glow in the TV screen to aim the vinegar."
"You took him out with vinegar?"
"If you can't see you can't put up much of a fight. Besides, I
didn't want a big mess in the bathroom - I live here. A little
baking soda and water will neutralize the vinegar and a mop
cleans it up."
---
"Can I get lap time now?"
"Yes. For as long as you need it."
"A long time."
"I know. It's been a scary day for you. Sweetie, can you hold
your breath while I count to ten? No. You're hyperventilating.
I'm putting this bag over your head to slow that down some. I'm
holding you. You're safe. I'll rub your back. Talk to me."
"N-N-Never b-b-been so sc-sc-scared! Sh-shooting at y-you last
n-night! C-Conference st-stuff. M-More of Alicia's uncles.
S-Someone in y-your apartment!"
"I have you. You're safe. It's OK to let it all out now."
I think this will may a repeat of the morning. Sobbing so hard
she's shaking both of us. Better text Sarah.
'Amelia too upset to talk. Will be here as long as needed.'
Sending. Still slowly - not that I expected better. Done.
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
'Pete and Tibbets both here. Serious apology from Tibbets. One of
his men let PBI in. Corporal Weston told him how you'd spotted
what they missed. Tibbets wants you to do some training. Pete and
Tibbets agree that Amelia doesn't need any uniforms around. Do
whatever she needs to feel safe.'
Now the hiccups are back. Get to the throne. Here it comes.
Heaves like that have got to hurt - and there's very little to
come up. Poor baby. Throat sore from the little that came up and
dry heaves that keep you from straightening up long enough for
some water. She's slowing down - almost ten seconds since the
last heave. Slower. More than a minute. Let's see if they've
stopped.
"Amelia?"
"Yes, Daddy?"
"Can you rinse and spit?"
"Un huh."
"Again."
"Gargle for me?"
"Un huh."
Again."
"Get a mouthful then swish and spit."
"Un huh."
"Take a little drink and swallow."
"Better."
"You OK to sit here a minute? I need to put water on to heat.
There's vomit in your hair and I'll help your wash."
"You always take good care of me, Uncle Jack."
Mister PBI better be glad he was out of here before this
happened. There might have been enough of him left to spread on
his ID card and mail it back. Tea kettle full. Burner on. My sun
shower bag is in the closet. Need to be able to refill it quickly
so I can wash her hair and her body without cold water. Two metal
five gallon pails on the deck. Water and bleach for a rinse. Half
fill both and put them on the stove. The tea kettle is just a
couple of minutes. The others will be longer. Slightly warm water
for her face is OK.
"Amelia?"
"Yes, Uncle Jack?"
"I didn't know if you were asleep and I didn't want so scare you
by touching you before you knew I was here."
"You take care of me so good! I love you, Uncle Jack!"
"I love you, Amelia. Let me clean your face a little."
"Puke up there?"
"No. You did some serious crying before you threw up."
"So I'm a snotty little brat?"
"Snotty little sweetheart."
"You probably want to do more cleaning before doing kissy-face."
"And your mouth might taste better if you brushed and flossed."
"And rinsed a bunch of times."
"That too."
"That's the tea kettle. Is it enough water for a shower, Uncle
Jack?"
 "It may be enough water to warm up enough water for a shower."
"Huh? Oh - mixing hot and cold."
"Very good, smart girl. After your shower, we'll cook supper…"
"I can help?"
"Are you part of 'we'?"
"Yes!"
"Then we can look at your questions."
"I'm not sure I want to."
"I know. Scary. But what you don't know is sometimes scarier than
what you do know. What if there are good answers to some of your
questions?"
"There might be?"
"We won't know until you ask and I find the answer."
"You even make the scary parts better."
"You get undressed and stand in the tub. I'll fill the shower bag
and we'll start on your hair."
"Just one bag?"
"But I have enough warm water to fill it twice."
"OK."
Old fashioned metal barrel thermometer with dial readout on top.
Never needs power. Turn off the burners under the pails. Add
boiling water from the tea kettle. Stir. A little more hot water.
99 degrees. Very warm but won't burn - and it will cool more
quickly than she'll like.
"Bag is up. Shampoo position."
"That's nice and warm!"
"Remember that it won't stay this warm so I'll try to get
finished quickly but also try to get the smell out of your hair.
Shampoo. I'll rub it in."
"Feels good. I liked it when Momma washed my hair 'cause she used
her fingertips like that."
"Eyes closed and breathe through your mouth while I rinse."
"Done?"
"Your hair is wet enough to shampoo again. Just a little shampoo
this time."
"Feels like a lot of lather."
"Almost clean hair gets better lather than not clean hair. Ready
to rinse again."
"Done this time?"
"Let me squeeze out most of the water, wind your hair on top of
your head and wrap it in a towel. Now to wash you."
"Touch all the good places!"
"Touch the good places and rinse with cold water or just wash and
rinse but with warm water?"
"Touch can wait. It's getting dark. Am I spending the night with
you?"
"I texted your mother that you were too upset to talk and she
said to do whatever you needed."
"I wanna…"
"Needed, not wanted. There might be a little overlap in those
two."
"But you're gonna see what's best for me."
"Correct."
"Because you love me."
"Correct."
"And you don't want me walking funny tomorrow."
Correct. And I'm down to your waist without a single 'touch me'
request."
"I've been rinsed with cold water. Touch can wait."
"Turn for your back."
"OK."
"Pretty little butt."
"Glad you like it."
"Turn for your front."
"OK."
"Leg up. Other leg up. Why are you standing on the seat?"
"You didn't say 'leg down'."
"I think you're feeling better."
"I smell better and my favorite person in the whole world is
giving me a bath and it's warm. That'd make anybody feel better."
"Spread your legs. There's a little water left for in the
middle."
"Feels good! Dry me with your hands?"
"Yes."
"Feels so good!"
"Now a towel."
"Rub the good places now?"
"Here?"
"Uh huh."
"Her sister?"
"You're silly but yes!"
"Here?"
"Kiss those lips?"
"Maybe later."
"Goody!"
"Do you know that you sound just like Paige?"
"That's OK. She likes it too."
"Now some clothes."
"In my backpack. I have underwear and socks and jammies and a
dress and jeans and another shirt…"
"Planning to move in with me?"
"Can I?"
"I think your mother might miss you. And you'd still be sharing
me with the other girls. For now, underwear, jammies and socks."
"Socks?"
"So your feet don't get cold. I've those icicles on me one time
and that was plenty. Want to cook?"
"Yes!"
"You didn't ask what we were cooking."
"It doesn't matter. Your stuff is always yummy!"
---
"These are good! What do you call them?"
"My girl is here for supper and I don't know what to fix."
"That's not a name!"
"If Mint Chocolate Chip Rocky Road can be a name, so can this."
"Uncle Jack! A real name!"
"Not quite a burrito."
"Huh?"
"Biscuit dough, not tacos. Canned chili, not ground beef. Pinto
beans, not refried beans. Cheese in a jar, not real cheese. So,
not quite a burrito."
"But they're good!"
"Maybe you're just hungry?"
"Maybe, a little."
---
"Think you can work your way through some of your questions now?"
"I'll try if I can be in your lap."
"If that's what you need - remember that your mother said
whatever you needed. That grin is about what you want, not what
you need, so 'no' to the request is see on your face."
"You read me too good."
"I'm an uncle. That's my job."
"That's a Daddy job too, isn't it?"
"Yes, sweet girl. You know my answer and why."
"I know. Here's my list."
"As we find answers, you write down the answer and enough
information to find that answer again."
"So I can learn how to find answers?"
"Yes, smart girl. When you know more about how to find answers, I
think you'll be doing most of your own research."
"You'd trust me to do things like that?"
"Once you've shown me that you understand how. Who did I trust to
keep all my girls safe the last time you were in the basement?"
"I had the 22 rifle…You trusted me!"
"Well, duh! I think you've earned that trust."
"I love you, too, Uncle Jack!
"Isn't it interesting to discover the different ways that you are
loved?"
"You let me cook and go to the conference with you and ask all
kinds of questions and build things and… and…"
"It's OK if you stop long enough to breathe."
"And make me stop sometimes and hold me when I'm scared and …
and…"
"Easy now. Slow down. Deep breath. I'll rub your back. I don't
think you're over being scared today. That's better. Come to the
kitchen with me. I want to fix something for you to drink."
"Hot tea? Is it yucky like the chai Momma likes?"
"I think you may like this better. It's chamomile. Many people
find that it helps make them calm. I think it might be good for
you now."
"It's not bad."
"I didn't say you would love it. Just think of it as medicine
that isn't totally yucky."
"You're silly, again, Uncle Jack"
"And my favorite Amelia is smiling."
"How many Amelia's do you know?"
"There's you. And Celia's sister. And Paige's sister. And Sarah's
daughter. And Alicia's best friend. I think that's five."
"But they're all me!"
"Are you quintuplets? I only see one body. Where do you hide the
other heads?"
"Stop, Uncle Jack! If I laugh any more I'll pee!"
"Then go pee and come back and finish your tea."
"OK."
"Remember to wash your hands."
"No reminder to flush?"
"When do we flush?"
"Only if it's brown. I haven't pooped today. Is something wrong
with me?"
"Considering that breakfast and lunch came out the same way they
went in, there's not much left in you to come out."
"Oh - I guess you're right."
"Feel like finding some answers?"
"Un huh. Momma was right. You do the things I need to feel
better. In your lap?"
"Yes."
---
"I'm getting more yawns than words, Amelia. How many questions
did you have?"
"Eighteen."
"How many have we found answers for?"
"Fifteen."
"Think it might be OK to wait until tomorrow for the others?"
"Un huh."
"Brush and floss."
"Do I hafta?"
"Do I say this every night?"
"I'm going. Can we do some kissy-face?"
"As long as you can stay awake."
"Goody!"
"I'm done."
"Head on my shoulder?"
"Kiss me and rub my butt?"
"Yes."
"Nice. Squeeze my butt again?"
"Goodnight, Amelia."
"Goodnight, Daddy."
And she's out. I have a good idea what she'll want in the morning
but it's good that tonight was snuggles and a little kissy-face..
She needs uninterrupted sleep. I wouldn't mind that, either. That
sweet, peaceful smile is back. If we didn't slay all the scary
monsters, at least they are being held at bay for a while -
hopefully until sunrise. And that's a day with convection
furnaces and a water heater and maybe a washing machine - and
maybe I should have had a cup of chamomile…

Beep!Beep! Beep!Beep!
Enough of that. She's still asleep! That's a small miracle. After
all her upsets yesterday, I expected at least one bad dream
during the night. Great that she made it through. Still has that
great smile. That's a face that's just waiting to be kissed.
"Good morning, Amelia."
"Good morning, Uncle Jack - my almost Daddy."
"Almost?"
"All of us want you and Momma married except you and Momma."
"I guess that fits."
"Make love to me? Slow and gentle and I stay awake for just one
orgasm? I know I always beg for more but I can do this and still
walk OK. Please?"
"I think I can do that. Your mother did say whatever you needed.
If you've put that much thought into the request, I think you
need what you are asking for. You will stay under the covers and
not sit up."
"I understand. That's how you do the slow and gentle that lasts
so long. I love how you love me!"
"I rather enjoy my time with you."
"I can tell!"
"Come up here and kiss me."
"Yes. Rub and squeeze my butt and rub the sides of my boobies and
bring your finger in from the back and rub my button and…"
"You're already in a hurry. You asked for slow and gentle so
that's what I'll do."
"Give me your tongue!"
"Not today. Eye kiss. Nose kiss. Chin kiss. Earlobe nibble…"
"Tickles!"
"Other earlobe…"
"Tickles more!"
"Butt squeeze."
"Nice!"
"Back rub. And slide your jammie top up. And down in your
underwear for a slow butt rub…"
"So good! Faster!"
"No. You asked for slow and gentle and that is what you shall
have. Lip kiss…"
"You got away before I could get your tongue!"
"Rub the side of your bee stings."
"Nice."
"Left bee sting and right butt cheek."
"That's different and it's really good! Tingles?"
"Right bee sting and left butt cheek."
"Stronger tingles and I still have my jammies on!"
"Jammie top off."
"Your chest hair tickles my boobies!"
"Bee stings. Lip kiss…"
"You got away again! But the tingles are stronger!"
"Jammie bottoms off. Rub inside your thighs."
"Higher! Faster! In the middle!"
"No. By the edict of Princess Amelia, this is to be slow and
gentle."
 "You goof! But you make it fun! I'm really tingly and you
haven't even put your tongue in my mouth! Kiss me!"
"Eye kiss."
"Not there!"
"Other eye kiss."
"In the middle!"
"Nose kiss."
"Lower!"
"Neck kiss."
"Higher!"
"Nose kiss!"
"Lower, you goof!"
"Bee sting kiss."
"Oooh! The tingles are stronger!"
"Other bee sting kiss."
"Even stronger! Put it in me!"
"Rub inside your thighs."
"Higher! Faster!"
"Your butt. Left. Right. Both.. Squeeze."
"The tingles are starting to burn a little! Hurry and put it in
me!"
"The flag is up."
"And rubbing my pussy through my panties! Put it in me! The
tingles burn!"
"Big kiss. Stop for you to breathe."
"It's too strong! Put it in me so I can cum!"
"Rub your clitoris."
"Harder! Faster!"
"Slow and gentle. Rub your butt."
"It burns! Make it end!"
"A little harder on your clit!"
"You gotta stop!"
"And squeeze your butt,"
"Too strong! Seeing stars! I'm exploding!"
"And another little kiss."
"It's still exploding!"
"And rub a bee sting."
"It's not stopping!"
"And another butt squeeze."
"Can't breathe! Stop!"
"Underwear off. Some KY on me and you. Ease back and take me in.
One long, slow stroke."
"Seeing stars again!"
"A little more."
"I'm exploding again!"
"A little more and I hug your butt tight."
"You touched it! My nipples burn!"
"Slow and gentle motion of your body."
"Chest hair on my nipples burns! Burns inside my pussy! You gotta
stop!"
"Trust me just a little longer. Rub your clit and squeeze a bee
sting."
"Burns…"
She's rigid again. Squeezing me so tight it hurts. Her tummy is
rippling like a pond in a tornado. She needs to breathe again.
Can I get her attention? Butt squeeze? She squeezes me back but
no breath. Nipple squeeze? She squeezes me again. I almost hate
to do this. Clit pinch? The scream and she goes limp. Her tummy
muscles may hurt and she may be exhausted but she shouldn't be
particularly sore - other than her clit. Rub her back. She's
almost back to normal breathing. She's stirring.
"Did I really get an orgasm before you were in me?"
"You tell me."
"I was seeing stars and exploding so I guess I did. I didn't know
you could do that! But then it got so much stronger and I
fainted. I can almost taste it! You may have been doing slow and
gentle but that's the biggest and best orgasm ever! I glad that
you love me in so many ways! It was so good! Why does my tummy
hurt?"
"Remember feeling those muscles ripple?"
"Un huh! That's super good when you're inside me!"
"Your ripple looked like a pond in a tornado."
"Really hard and fast?"
"Yes. So hard and fast it left you sore. Since you threw up twice
yesterday, you can ask if throwing up makes your tummy hurt."
"You have good answers for a lot of things."
"You want to scoot up and kiss or stay where you are?"
"Stay here and enjoy being connected. I think I'll need a nap
today."
 "You might. You've already put in a day's work getting
pleasure."
"But it was so strong and so good!"
"Want to look for answers to your other questions?"
"Only if we can stay naked and connected."
"It's not cold in here but I don't think it's naked in the house
weather either. Naked in bed is OK."
"Naked in bed with you is always OK and sometimes it's really,
really good - like now! I felt you jerk inside me! Do it again!"
"Like this?"
"Yes! I already got tingles!"
"And if I do the jerk and squeeze your butt."
"Tingles are stronger!"
"Bee sting rub and a jerk."
"Even stronger!"
"Bee sting and butt and a jerk."
"Starting to burn!"
"Hug your butt tight and rub your cervix."
"Seeing stars! I'm exploding! It's too strong! Stop!"
"Pinch your clit again."
"Burns…"
And the scream and she's limp. I think that's all for her today.
Breathing is shallow but OK. Better than rigid and not breathing.
Now the snuggle things. Long, slow strokes on her back. She's
stirring.
"Oooh! You did it without any in and out! Twice! Can I go back to
sleep?"
"If you can sleep in that position."
"My pussy is full and it feels really good! I'll try to sleep
like this. Rub my back?"
"Of course. You may be sore if you stay this way a long rime."
"It'll be the best sore ever."
And she's out of it. She ran her marathon this morning and she's
happy - that great smile is back. Sleep well, sweetie. You've
earned it. She's so snug I don't know if I will deflate while
still inside her. Give it time. If she's not awake in an hour
I'll ease her up on my shoulder. She's always comfortable there
so it may compensate for losing her 'full'. Better set an alarm.
---
Friday, 25 September, 7:40AM
Beep!Beep! Beep!Beep!
That's enough. She's still asleep and I'm still erect. Ease her
up. I think that frown is from losing her 'full' status. Head on
my shoulder. My hand around this pretty little butt. The smile is
back. That's good. Something wet on my hand? Blood? We did less
than usual so I guess my little girl is getting a big girl event.
"Good morning, Amelia."
"Good morning, Daddy - and Uncle Jack all day. Did I wet the
bed?"
"No. There's a little blood."
"We didn't do as much as last time. My period started?"
"Probably."
"Damn!"
"Never heard that from you before."
"Never been this mad. before! Now we can't do stuff any time
we're together."
"Why not?"
"I could get pregnant!"
"Not from me."
"And not from Grandpa Joe either! I just gotta put up with the
mess."
 "Because you're more stretched than most nine year olds, you can
probably use a tampon. It goes inside so there's no pad to show
through your clothes and rarely any leaks. You must be very good
about changing it every day but I think my responsible girl will
remember."
"Now I remember. Momma told me about those. But you won't wanna
do me when it's so messy!"
"If you don't mind, I don't mind. We'd just have to plan for
showering together afterward. Some girls have cramps or other
things during their period that makes them feel too bad to fuck,
but we can do all the parts of making love that work for you
then."
"That's why making love is better than fucking. There's feel good
stuff you can do even if you don't put it in me - like my first
orgasm this morning! You taught me about that at the perfect
time."
"You're pretty close to perfect yourself."
"And I love the Daddy I'm with right now because that's what a
daddy would say."
"What will you tell your mother about your period?"
"That there was blood when I went to pee and you explained what
it was and told me it was part of growing up."
"And I have some mini-pads so you can wear one until you get
home."
"You're ready for almost everything."
"But I was a little surprised to get a giggle of girls in one
week."
"But you take care of us like we'd always been family."
"Feels right to me."
"Feels good to me!"
"You horny little monster."
"Yeah!"
"I'll get a towel and help you out of bed so we control where the
blood drips. You're on your throne, Princess Amelia."
"And I'm dripping into it. Yuck!"
"But if your mother hadn't had periods, where would you be?"
"Maybe it's not so bad."
"The water is cold but I think you can manage it for no more than
I'm washing."
"It's in my butt crack too?"
"If I pour water on your pussy, where does it go?"
"Up my butt crack and a lot of other places."
"We can hope that you're one of the girls whose period is regular
- the same number of days between the end of one and the start of
the next one. That means you'll know what day you may need to
have a pad or a tampon with you at school or when you spend the
night with someone. Otherwise, you always have one with you."
"How will I know?"
"You might know in about a month. You mark the calendar today and
each day it keeps bleeding. Then you mark off a month and see
when it starts again. Young girls - as in newly started on
periods - aren't always regular. It could be two weeks or two
months or something else. That's why a paper calendar is useful.
I have a little calendar on the fridge. We can mark today and you
take the calendar home with you so you can keep track of it."
"You make things less scary."
"That's what the adults who love you are supposed to do."
"But you do it for more things than anyone else. You really are
the Daddy in my life even if I hafta say 'Uncle Jack'."
"I love you too, Amelia."
"I know. You love me in lots of ways. As a child in your life. As
a friend. As a lover. Lots of ways."
"Are you sure you're only nine?"
"My birthday cake had nine candles."
"I guess you are. Here's the pad. It has adhesive strips to hold
it in place in your underwear. I'll put the pad in place on your
body then remove the covers on the adhesive then you pull your
underwear up and be sure it's straight. I'll move my hand and you
press your underwear against the pad."
"That's backwards from what's on the box."
"Are those directions intended for nine year olds?"
"Oh - for someone with a bigger body,"
Correct, smart girl. Now we take your underwear off and you can
see where the pad needs to be for you."
"It's not the same place."
"Your body isn't twenty years old."
"You're smart, Uncle Jack."
"I had daughters."
"And they asked you about everything?"
"Yes. Get dressed for the day and we'll go look for breakfast."
"Look for breakfast?"
"I don't remember what's in the pantry and we know there's
nothing in the fridge so we look for breakfast."
"I didn't get do my thing with the dress!"
"There'll be another time."
"I'm hoping for a lot of other times! You gave me an orgasm
without putting it in me! I get little tingles even thinking
about it."
"What can you tell about staying with me?"
"I was so scared I couldn't talk. You held me and rubbed my back.
I threw up and you were there and rubbed my back when it kept
going but nothing came out. You heated water to wash my hair and
for a shower 'cause I got vomit in my hair. We cooked a fun
supper - not quite a burrito. You helped me find answers to most
of my questions and most of the answers were good things. There
was blood in the toilet when I peed this morning and you talked
to me about it and it wasn't scary and you had some pads so I
have one in my underwear…"
"And two more in your backpack."
"And extras in case she didn't have anything I could use. I could
go in the house and look before we go back and you can show me
how a tampon works if she has any."
"Then look for breakfast and after we eat we'll look for
tampons."
"I love my Daddy who's named Uncle Jack."
"I love my girl Amelia no matter what her relationship is."
"As long as I'm your girl."
"You are."
"And I feel wrapped up in love."
"Remember that your mother might not know exactly what we do when
we're here, but she knows the types of things we do."
"What!"
"You helped her 'fix' me - at your request."
"I guess she does. But she never says anything."
"As long as you go back smiling, she won't."
"She'll know I'm happy with what we're doing and she'll be happy
with that?"
"Yes, smart girl. Think the same thing applies to Celia?"
"Un huh."
"And Paige?"
"Momma probably doesn't know how horny Paige is but she knows
you'll take care of what Paige needs when she needs it."
---
"You do have stuff for breakfast! Oatmeal and cashews and gummy
worms."
"Sounds like snacks and junk food to me."
"You goof! That's your oatmeal recipe."
"It is?"
"Stop being silly or I'll pull this pad off and dribble blood on
the floor."
"And I'll rub my little puppy's cold nose in it."
"You would, wouldn't you?"
"Yes."
"OK. It's all ready."
"So happy breakfast on the first day of your first period."
"Are you gonna tell everybody?"
"No. It's no one's business but you and your mother. I will ask
her if you told her about your growing up event."
"You make it sound important."
"Isn't it? This person who was a little girl yesterday now has
the potential to be a mother. Isn't that an important 'growing
up' event?"
"You make everything better."
"Finish eating and we'll go look for tampons."
"I think they might feel better. You said this was a mini-pad but
it feels like a big wad between my legs."
"Finish and we'll wash dishes."
"There's a dishwasher under the counter."
"But no power or water. So I'm looking at my dishwasher who
doesn't need electricity but likes being plugged in."
"Having you plugged into me! I really like that kind of plugged
in!"
"You were plugged in this morning. Now it's time to wash dishes."
"I think I got a good deal. I was plugged in a lot longer than
it's taking to wash these dishes."
"Maybe I liked being plugged in?"
"I think you did - especially when you jerked in me! I'm getting
tingly again!"
"No more tingles. Dishes are done. Everything back in your
backpack?"
"Un huh."
"Door is locked. Down the stairs and then to your house. If we're
very quiet we might surprise our security people. I don't think
they're really watching right now"
"How do you know?"
"Look at their positions on the tablet display."
"That's closer to down than up."
"Let me check the peephole. I don't want to scare someone who has
his finger on the trigger."
"Good thinking, soldier."
"I don't have a towel here but I might be close by the next time
you're in the shower."
"I'm busted."
"Guns on the ground, not in their hands. And they're not to be in
range of our surveillance system. Open the door for me. TEN-HUT!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING SLEEPING HERE! GET YOUR ASSES IN GEAR AND GET
IN FORMATION!"
"Uncle Jack, two of them wet their pants and the others look
really scared. They're looking around like they don't know where
you are."
"Amelia, let's go."
"Sorry, sir. We've been up since this time yesterday. We weren't
told where to camp."
"Who's in charge?"
"Lt. Wylie."
"Where is he?"
"Sleeping in the van over there."
"WYLIE! WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING?"
"He did it too, Uncle Jack. You sure can be scary sometimes.
There's the Major."
"Jeez, Jack. Now I'll never be able to scare them with tone of
voice and volume level. I can see it was well deserved."
"Better to have a friendly scare the piss out of them than have a
hostile stop them forever."
"Wylie came with a good recommendation but I think it was the
only way his former unit could get rid of him."
"I can scare him off or straighten him out. Your choice."
"I could use a good Lt."
"I need Weston and Thompson and the two that went up the street
with me."
"I'll get them."
"Amelia needs something from her house so I'll go with her.
Probably no more than five minutes."
"They can wait."
---
"Momma keeps her stuff in this bathroom."
"I think she may have been expecting this."
"A starter kit?"
"Book and tampons and pads."
"Show me how to do the tampon."
"You'll most likely be doing this when you're sitting on the
toilet so jeans and underwear down."
"There's a lot more blood on it now."
"You've been standing up most of the time since we put the pad in
place. You think maybe stuff runs downhill?"
"Yes, teacher."
"Here's the diagram for inserting a tampon. Remember that you
have room inside but your entry needs a little time to stretch.
There's lubricant on the end of the applicator so it should go in
easily. Remember to keep the string outside. You'll need it when
it's time to change tampons."
"Other than being a little big for my hands it was easy. Thank
you Uncle Jack. What do I do with the pad?"
"If things were normal, you'd wrap it in toilet paper and put it
in the garbage. Since we're not getting garbage pickup. I'll put
it in a sandwich bag to contain the blood and we'll put it with
the other garbage to be burned."
"Where does the string go? Up in front or down my butt crack?"
"If it will stay up in front it will be more comfortable. Just
remember to keep it out of the way when you pee."
"Something else to remember."
"You have a good memory. You'll do fine."
"How do girls learn if they don't have someone like you?"
"Most girls ask their mother or aunt or big sister or older
friend - not an uncle. You have an unusual relationship with your
uncle. Underwear and jeans back up. The Major is waiting for us."
"This feels better. Thank you, Uncle Jack."
"You're welcome, sweet girl."
---
"Major, sir. If you didn't wake us, who did? He's certainly been
in command."
"Lt. Wylie, this is Commander Wilson, US Navy SEAL, retired."
"Sir."
"Corporal Weston, I want you and your men to verify the video I'm
about to show Wylie."
"Yes, sir."
"Amelia, my phone."
Yes, Uncle Jack."
---
"This is real, Corporal?"
"Yes, sir. The young lady was standing beside and a little behind
me and you can see my weapon here at the edge of the screen."
"Why are you standing here when he's out there?"
"At his request, sir. He told me to keep the young lady safe and
that he would clear it with Tom - Major Tibbets."
"And you did that?"
"Sir, I'd just seen Mr. Wilson kick ass on a man 30 years
younger. I wasn't about to cross him."
"When I get through with you, Corporal…"
"No, Wylie. First you have to get past me."
"Major?"
"Have at him, Wylie."
"Swing and a miss: strike one. You'll probably be more effective
as a fighter if you let a little anger out."
"Swing and a miss: strike two. Still nothing to say? I don't
think this will end well for you."
"Swing and a miss: strike three. You do understand that if I
strike your elbow, it will be dislocated and the pain you feel
now is nothing in comparison. You ready to listen or you want a
medical discharge?"
"You can do that?"
"The Corporal and Private Thompson both saw it. Ask them."
"Weston?"
"He did, sir. The man was in extreme pain but pulled a knife on
Mr. Wilson and his knee was next. He didn't get back up."
"Your choice. But you only have a minute before I make it for
you."
"I'll listen."
"I think the Major has some words for you. Then I have a couple
of books for you."
"Books? What good are they?"
"You're about to learn. If you're not willing to read them, that
medical discharge is still an option."
"I'll read."
"Then see the Major."
"Not until after I cut your throat for making me look bad!"
"I hoped you wouldn't be this stupid about that knife."
"Arrrgh. My leg!"
"You're rid of him, Major. Attack on a unarmed civilian and a
medical discharge. I think his squad needs a chance under better
leadership."
 "Will do, Jack."
---
"Back to see your mother, Amelia."
"Yes, Uncle Jack. That soldier was really stupid when he'd seen
the video and the others had told him what you could do."
"Unfortunately, there's no cure for stupid. You can only hope it
doesn't have children."
"That's too scary to be funny."
"Correct, smart girl."
"Hi,. Momma."
"Hi, Amelia. You seem to have recovered from yesterday's 'too
scared to talk'."
"It took a long time. When I started crying it was so hard I
puked. Then Uncle Jack heated water and helped me with a shower
'cause there was vomit in my hair. He held me and we talked and
then we cooked supper - not quite a burrito. Then he helped me
find answers to some of my questions from the conference. Then it
was bedtime and I snuggled on his shoulder and then he was waking
me up this morning. We had his special oatmeal for breakfast."
"Anything else?"
"Yes, but it's private. Come upstairs with me."
---
"And what's private?"
"I started my period. There was blood in the toilet when I peed
this morning. Uncle Jack explained like you did last year but he
said it was a 'growing up event' because yesterday I was a little
girl but today I had the potential to be a mother.. Why are you
crying, Momma?"
"Crying because my little girl is growing up. Crying because she
has a loving uncle who made this a positive event in your life."
"I told Uncle Jack that your stuff was in a bathroom at our house
so he took me over there and explained about pads and tampons and
had me try a little pad but it was uncomfortable between my legs
so I asked about the tampon and he showed me how to do it and it
feels a lot better. You're crying again, Momma."
"Because your Uncle Jack loves you so much and will do anything
for you. Most men won't even say 'pad' or 'tampon' and he showed
you how to use them. He's a very special person."
"He's the Daddy in my life."
"But you can't call him that."
"I know. He talked with me about it. I can only say 'Daddy' when
it's just the two of us."
"You're crying again, Momma."
"Your Uncle Jack loves you so much that he makes it possible for
you to have what you want - calling him Daddy - but with
conditions that don't let it be a problem for others."
"He loves all his girls like that."
---
"Jack?"
"Yes, Sarah?"
"Thank you for turning Amelia's problem into a positive event."
"You're welcome, but I just told her what I told my daughters."
"It's the most loving, caring description I've ever heard. And
she told me about your rule for her using 'Daddy'. I think she
can handle that. Thank you for loving her so much."
"It would be hard to know her and not love her. Having her love
me back is wealth beyond measure."
"I kept bawling when she was telling me about these things. Now
you've got me doing it again."
"Just telling you how I see things."
---
Friday, 25 September, 10:15AM
"Joe, if you're willing we can work on the convection furnaces
for Sarah's house and my apartment. While we're running lines for
LP, we can also run one for the little water heater and the hoses
and vent for it. Then pick a place for the wringer washer and
suds saver sinks - preferably one that can be heated in the
winter."
"Will we have helpers today?"
"If the 'A' team wants to help."
"Me, Uncle Jack."
"Me, Poppa."
"Seems we have our crew. First to Sarah's house. Then my
apartment. In or near the kitchen might the ideal place for the
washer because that gives access to hot and cold water and a
drain. The only concerns are the space needed and the exhaust."
"Neither Mindy nor I use the breakfast nook for much other than
the kids' homework. That could be the new laundry room. Take down
the table and store it to have enough room."
"Here or your house, Sarah?"
"While we're all here, this is the best place."
"Draining the tubs will get a yet-to-be-designed solution but I
think this room is more or less above the bathroom in the
basement. We'll check before we start on that."
"Are my girls in working clothes?"
"Yes, Poppa."
"Yes, Uncle Jack."
"Then we collect gas line, potable hoses, tools and security…"
"Security, Poppa?"
"Yes, Alicia. Some soldiers are assigned to keep us safe any time
we're out of the house. Yesterday's crew was Corporal Weston and
Private Thompson."
 "Let's head out."
"Morning, sir. We'll be with you until 18:00. Cobb and Parsons
will cover from then to 0600."
"Thank you, Corporal. At the moment we don't plan to be out that
late. We're heading for the Pope house to update some
appliances."
"Yes, sir."
"Today they move like you do at night, Uncle Jack. I didn't see
you teaching them."
"I loaned the Corporal a short but thorough book on moving and
staying alive in a combat situation. I think he's been reading
and is now applying what he read."
"Makes me feel better."
---
"Gas lines in and tested to LP fridge and convection furnace. One
more connection for gas to the water heater and then the hoses
and the vent. I think we could stop for lunch. You girls want to
look for lunch here or go eat with the others?"
"Look for the 'not quite a burrito' stuff, Uncle Jack! That was
yummy!"
"Hands washed before we cook. I think we can get it mixed and in
the oven and have time for to finish the water heater while lunch
bakes. Do you remember what we used, Amelia?"
"Biscuit dough that we mixed up. Canned chili. Canned pinto
beans. Cheese in a jar. Here's the chili, beans and cheese. The
flour, baking powder and powdered milk for the biscuits are too
high for me to reach."
"I'll get that, shortstuff."
"You're OK with 'shortstuff' for a nickname?"
"Alicia, it fits - I'm too short to get the stuff we need.
Besides, it's not like Uncle Jack makes fun of me for not being
as tall as he is - nobody here is that tall."
"Need more hands, Jack?"
"If you recognize this, Joe."
"P-38. Been a long time since I used one of these but I think I
remember how."
"That's a funny can opener, Grandpa Joe."
"When military meals came in cans, every soldier had at least one
of these. Don't touch the can's rim or the lid I take off. They
both have sharp edges."
"That's almost as fast as Momma's electric can opener!"
"But this works without electricity, Amelia."
"Sometimes old ways are good because they always work."

"How long until the water is hot, Poppa?"
"Several hours, Alicia. We'll have the fridges and water heaters
at both houses on so they'll be ready when we need them."
"Is the thermostat set on the heater, Uncle Jack.?"
"Yes, Amelia. The timer is set to take the temperature up in the
morning and down at night but I set it for 55 degrees and hit the
'Hold' button. The house won't be warm if we come here but it
won't be so cold that you must work in a coat. I'll so the same
for the convection heater in my apartment."
"Are you on the video conference again today, Jack?"
"Yes, Joe. 3PM today. If we get the lines run for the apartment,
you should be able to get all the connections made without me."
"I'll have good helpers."
"One helper, anyway. Alicia, if Rachel passes on being in the
comms truck today it will be your turn."
"Yes!"
"First we see what Rachel has to say."
"Yes, Poppa."
---
Friday, 25 September, 2:20PM
"You OK with this as my stopping point, Joe?"
"Yes, Jack. Go take care of the chain of command."
"Alicia, come with me. If Rachel opts out, you'll need to pack
things for a couple of hours. If I have a lot of reading to do -
again - you may come with me to my apartment while I read."
"Goody!"
"Hi, Poppa!"
"Hi, Rachel. It's your turn, but I'll be in the truck again."
"Can I pass again?"
"You may but it had to be your choice. I'll make a note on the
schedule on the fridge."
"You're good about choices."
"Alicia, get your backpack. You might want a snack if the
conference runs long."
"Yes, Poppa."
---
Friday, 25 September, 2:50PM
"Inside, Alicia. You may have that chair to read or draw or you
may sit in my lap…"
"I know - quiet and still. Amelia said she had a lot of questions
about things they talked about so she wrote them down and you
answered them last night. Can I do that?"
"Yes. Pencil and paper right here if you didn't bring it."
"Brought my notebook and my pink pen."
"Ladies and gentlemen, if we could get started. My first item is
for Jack Wilson. Jack, the closed manufacturing facility you
mentioned yesterday did have its own substation and the equipment
is in good condition. There is a transformer that will work for
your area so it's being removed today and should arrive there
late tomorrow. The estimated time for installation should have
power back up for you late Sunday or early Monday. Other
equipment at the facility is also being repurposed and 90 per
cent of your county should be OK on power by the end of next
week."
"Thank you, Colonel. That's good news."
"It is, however, the only good news I have. The CDC thinks the
GG-183 incubation period in humans is two to five weeks. That
means the quarantine that was attempted was too late. It's highly
probable that carriers are even now spreading the virus. We have
reports of a new 'flu' from the five closest surrounding states.
The CDC will verify but the symptoms point to GG-183. What this
state has seen in reduced supplies of food, fuel, medicine and
other things that move by truck will be repeated in those states
because the drivers will refuse to go there. The CDC is running
PSA's about masks, gloves and frequent hand washing and
distribution of masks and gloves for homes and workplaces is
underway. The manufacturers are giving priority to our orders and
emptying their warehouses - commercial stocks elsewhere in the
country will be slim until production catches up. They are also
ramping up production so we'll have sufficient stocks to begin
distribution of gloves and masks in the next ring of states
within a week - and potentially the next ring ten days after
that. There are also PSA's about the symptoms and treatment of
GG-183. Basically, if someone has the 'mild' version, they should
call a doctor for a prescription to treat it and use one of the
local pharmacies that delivers. The delivery people have been
instructed on protocol for doing the deliveries safely and the
phone call plus delivery are our best protocol for avoiding mass
infections."
"Colonel, is there a time frame for the human-carried virus to
burn out?"
"Sam, that question should go to Dr. Simmons from the CDC."
"Sam, we don't know yet. We've never before dealt with a plant
virus that affected humans so this is a learning process for us.
What we know about most human-carried viruses is that they can
survive in the host for decades. If you survived hepatitis when
you were 18, it's still in your blood when you're 88. We're
choosing to err on the side of caution and assume that GG-183
will stay in the host an unknown length of time. It's possible
that in the future farm workers will be tested for GG-183 and not
be allowed to work in regions that grow grain of any type if they
test positive. We just don't know enough yet."
"Dr. Simmons, in our area it appears that some people were
immunized to GG-183 by a previous virus that leaked into the
water supply. Is any work being done on an immunization process
for the rest of the country?"
"Jack, we're working on that, as is the Army Medical Research
unit. If we knew the initial dilution rates, we might be able to
produce something quickly. Without that information, we probably
won't be able to produce a vaccine in time."
"Have you asked the residents here to check for bottled water
they purchased and put back? The bottles have either 'best by'
dates which can be reverse engineered to get the bottling date or
they have the bottling date on them. If you could find bottles
going back perhaps a year or so, you might have an idea of the
amount of virus in the water."
"Thank you, Jack. I don't know what they're paying you, but you
earned a month's salary for this one suggestion. I have someone
working on it now and announcements will go out on all the media.
Where phone service is up, we'll use the reverse 911 system to
notify people and ask them to spread the word."
"I think this is a good time for a break - I know I'll be getting
a call or two about the water bottle treasure hunt. We'll
reconvene in fifteen minutes."
'I gotta pee.'
"Whispering isn't required. I asked Sergeant Nabors, the guy
running the comms, and he said this red 'Mute' button turns off
all the cameras and microphones in here. Toilet is in the
corner."
"Paige was right! All the pipes and stuff are crazy."
"This is also a decontamination shower if someone gets harmful
chemicals on his clothes or skin. The blue shower heads on the
wall can make a circle of your body and wash you from all
directions. The 'box' opens like this and is a place for clothing
with chemicals on it. This is the part you need and it flushes
with this button. Use this lever to get the sink down to wash
your hands."
"OK."
"If you brought a snack, this might be a good time for it."
"In my backpack. Two brownies - for you and me."
"Thank you, granddaughter."
"It was worth the effort just to hear 'granddaughter'."
"Are you making a list of questions, Alicia?"
"Un huh. I have ten so far. Some of things they're saying are
scary. I need a hug!"
"I can take care of your hug. And maybe a kiss on your nose?"
"You're silly but I feel better now."
"I agree that some of the things are scary but you should
remember that some of these things have already happened to us -
the virus, no water, no power. We've adapted and are OK - not
what 'normal' was last month but we're OK - you are eating a home
made brownie."
"I guess we are OK. I'd like to be able to swim every day but I
don't miss TV as much as I thought I would. The stories you read
are lots more interesting - especially Little House."
"Is it OK if I replay the video of our conversation about the
questions? I think some of the people need to know that it's
possible to adapt and thrive, not just survive."
"OK."
"I'm taking it off 'Mute' so back to quiet."
"OK. It's still counting down."
"We were a little faster with our break than some of the other
people. Remember that some of them had to make work assignments
to multiple people while we just had brownies and a hug."
"Ladies and gentlemen, if we could reconvene?"
"Colonel?"
"Yes, Jack?"
"Some of the attendees seem to think that any change that's a
step back in technology will be impossible for people to handle.
I'd like to play part of a conversation I had with my
granddaughter Alicia during the break. Alicia will be nine years
old tomorrow."
"Go ahead, Jack."
---
"It seems that we adults don't give the kids enough credit for
being smart and tough and adaptable. Thank you, Jack. Thank you,
Alicia, for agreeing to share what you said. If a nine year old
can go from TV to books, I think the rest of the population can
manage some glitches in their addiction to technology. Let me
reiterate the status there. The water has been off over a week.
The house is on a septic tank so they have sanitary sewer when
the power is off - which it has been, I think, for five days but
Jack can give exact figures. Flushing is with water from the
swimming pool. Water for drinking, cooking and bathing is
collected rainwater that they filter on-site and bathing is one
five gallon shower each week unless there's enough rain to allow
more. Power is from solar panels with a charger they built as
backup. Water for showers is solar heated - all this is in the
notes from Day 3. Jack's description is 'living in the country in
1920 but no chickens or garden'. Considering the way Alicia looks
at Jack, the kids knowing that they are loved unconditionally
probably makes a major difference in how well this works. I hope
this little vignette recharged your batteries as much as it did
mine - we have more work today."

Friday, 25 September, 6:20PM
"Thank you for your attendance. Copies of things mentioned should
be on the printer at your location. Jack, meet me on Channel 5."
"Yes, Colonel."
"Happy birthday, Alicia."
"Thank you."
"Young lady, you may never know how much you helped us today.
Your positive outlook in the middle of what most of the adults on
the conference see as an impossible situation got some of those
adults out of their 'It's impossible' frame of mind. I think you
deserve a reward for that so the greenhouse over the swimming
pool that your Uncle Jack once mentioned will happen tomorrow.
The pool will be warm for swimming longer - if you have water to
shower with and I may be able to help there later. There is a
condition."
"Yes, sir?"
"You must share with your sisters and the other girls at your
house."
"I will!"
"I think I knew that. Jack, there's another greenhouse on the
truck - a modular one with plant tables, flats and vertical
racks. Work out where it will fit best and they'll erect just
that much of it."
"Thank you, sir."
"As Dr. Simmons said, your suggestion on the water was worth a
month's pay. I hope this is adequate."
"I'm just trying to make things work for other people."
"I know - it's people like you that keep things working. Tibbets
told me of the other problem. If you need anything, let me know.
My personal cell number is on the screen. Use it."
"Thank you."
"See you tomorrow at 1500."
"We get a greenhouse over the pool?"
"That's what the Colonel said."
"What's the other greenhouse for?"
"To grow food during the winter. We don't know when or if regular
deliveries to the grocery stores will start again. Some things
grow quickly, such as some things for salads. Others not so
quickly - weeks to months. We'll also need water for the plants
in the greenhouse. I need to check the aquifer maps to see if
there's water that we can drive a well to."
"Aquifer?"
"A formation in the ground that holds water. It can be a layer of
stone with water above or below it or it might be a layer of sand
or gravel. A sand or gravel layer that isn't too far down can be
tapped with a sand point and some time if the ground above it
isn't too hard. I think there's information on drilling a well in
one of the 'How Things Work' books."
"I thought they were doing a new pipe to get water from the
river?"
"They are, but that pipe won't have the capacity to provide all
the water the people here have been using. We may need our own
well to water the plants."
"What about the virus in the water?"
"Two things. First, I hope to locate a small aquifer that isn't
connected to the one that's contaminated. Second, that water will
only be used for growing things. I need to check in at the house
and see if they need me for anything before we go to my apartment
for the reading I need to do."
"You got a big stack of paper today."
"Let me tell the others about the greenhouses. Your mother and
Miss Sarah and Grandpa Joe all need to discuss size and placement
because the greenhouse crew will be here tomorrow."
"I understand. I just wanna swim but we gotta grow stuff to eat
'cause we don't know what'll be in the stores."
"Correct."
Bleep! Bleep! Bleep!
"It's Uncle Jack and Alicia."
"Let them in."
"Hi, Uncle Jack."
"Hi, Amelia. Nice hug. Ladies, Joe, girls. I need your attention.
There will be a construction crew here tomorrow…"
"What for?"
"Let me finish. I'm not being paid for my time on the video
conferences but there are some rewards. The crew will be here to
erect a greenhouse over the swimming pool…"
"Goody!"
"And another greenhouse strictly for growing food. I need input
on how big the food greenhouse should be and where it should be
located in the back yard. It's a modular unit, so the size is
adjustable in blocks. I made a couple of sketches so you can see
the dimensions and there's a more or less to scale sketch of the
back yard. Draw a box the size you think will work and see where
it will fit. The greenhouse comes with enough plant tables, flats
and racks to fit the size of the finished structure. I have a lot
of reading to do and Alicia wants to stay with me. As late as it
is, we'll fix supper for the two of us…"
"We're ahead of you. Beef stew's been on for a couple of hours.
Should be ready. Eat with us or take it with you."
"Alicia?"
"Eat here. Then I don't hafta do dishes right after I eat."
"OK. We're here."
---
"Sometimes you're gone past bedtime. Kiss me goodnight before you
leave."
"OK, Paige. The rest of you line up."
"Goodnight, Paige."
"Goodnight, Uncle Jack
"Goodnight, Rachel."
"Goodnight, Poppa."
"Goodnight, Celia."
"Goodnight, Uncle Jack."
"Goodnight, Leah."
"Goodnight, Poppa."
"Goodnight, Amelia."
"Goodnight, Uncle Jack."
"Not this time, Alicia."
"I tried."
"You have everything you need?"
"Un huh."
"Let's go."
"The soldiers are back."
"No, the night soldiers are with us."
"It's hard to tell from their backs."
"Our guards tonight are a little taller than the day crew."
"Yeah."
"And one of them has red hair."
"You're working on observant, aren't you?"
"I think it's an important skill to have. You find three more
things that are different and tell me when we get in my
apartment."
"OK."
---
"What's different from the day soldiers?"
"One wears glasses. He had a different gun. The one with red hair
is a girl!"
"Very good. The different gun is a shotgun instead of the M16's
the others had. Yes, we do have females in the military. She's in
charge of their patrol. She's the Corporal."
"Girls can be soldiers and be in charge?"
"I'm looking at a girl who can do almost anything and even
impressed a Colonel - he's Major Tibbets boss - with how well you
handle the mess that we're in without water or power."
"He really thought I did good, Poppa?"
"Yes. He doesn't hand out praise unless it is well deserved. He
thinks you have a lot of potential - potential to be anything you
want to be."
"You did a hug with words!"
"I might find another hug or two for you - but first I must
finish my work of reading through all this."
"Can I be in your lap?"
"Are you able to climb up and sit?"
"May I sit in your lap?"
"Yes."
"I'm here!"
"What will keep you quiet and still while I read?"
"Oops! I'll get my books and bear."
"Make your nest."
"You're silly but sometimes it's fun."
I heard a book fall. She's asleep. I didn't think that would take
long with her being sideways with her head against my chest. She
can have a nap before we work on her questions. Amelia's
questions showed a level of maturity and grasp of things that
surprised me. I'm expecting to be surprised again. Alicia had
some thoughtful looks when she was listening and writing.
I can make suggestions for a few of the things in today's notes
and questions. Some of my suggestions seem so obvious that I
can't imagine others don't see them. Am I unique in seeing
'things that will work' instead of looking for 'things designed
for a purpose'?
She's stirring.
"I gotta pee!"
"After three glasses of tea with your supper, I'm not surprised."
"Did I sleep a long time?"
"I guess you did. It's 10:30. I lost track of time buried in my
reading. I expected you to wake in an hour or so and be my time
reminder. If we go back now, we'll just disturb the other girls.
Better tell your mother you're spending the night here."
'Lost track of time reading. Alicia just woke from a very long
nap. Her being there and wide awake would disturb the other
girls. See you tomorrow.'
"I get to spend the night with you?"
"Not planned, but it has worked out that way. I can see what you
want to do in your face. If you listen to me, you might get two
orgasms tonight but it will all be slow and gentle."
"I can cum from slow and gentle?"
"You must listen and you must trust me when the tingles get too
strong."
"OK. That's always gotten me something better."
"I think tonight will too."
"I get naked?"
"No. Jammies if you brought them."
"I did! I was hoping something would happen so I could stay!"
"Change. Brush and floss. You want to work on answers for your
questions now or in the morning?"
"In the morning!"
"I thought so. Standing there naked will get you tickled in all
the places you don't want. Above your knee. Ribs. Under your
arms. Feet."
"I'm getting dressed!"
"Include your underwear."
"Why? It's just gonna come off."
"You don't know that. You don't know what I have planned."
"You haven't touched me and I already got little tingles!"
"So maybe slow and gentle can make you cum?"
"It might if I tingle from talking!"
"Brush and floss."
"Yes, Daddy."
"You remembered."
"I gotta remember! I want you here always!"
"Brush more and talk less, daughter."
"I like 'daughter'! The little tingles just got bigger!"
"Come get in bed with me. On top. Maybe some kissy-face?"
"I like kissy-face!"
"A Daddy kiss on his daughter's eye."
"Tingles!"
"A Daddy kiss on the other eye."
"More tingles!"
"A Daddy kiss on his daughter's nose."
"Stronger tingles!"
"A Daddy kiss on her chin."
"Stronger!"
"A Daddy kiss on his daughter's lips."
"Really strong and you're still on my face!"
"Roll to your side and unbutton your jammie top."
"OK."
"A Daddy rub on his daughter's bee sting,"
"Even stronger!"
"Roll to the other side. A Daddy rub on his daughter's other bee
sting."
"Really strong! Almost burns!"
"Slide your top off. A Daddy rub that touches both his daughter's
bee stings."
"Starting to burn!"
"Jammie bottoms off. Not your underwear. Now the flag is up."
"Your dick is rubbing my pussy through my underwear! It's good
but it burns!"
"A Daddy squeeze on his daughter's butt."
"Stop! It's too strong!"
"You promised to trust me."
"Put it in me! I can't wait! It burns!"
"A Daddy rub on his daughter's clit."
"It burns. Seeing stars! It's too strong!'
"A Daddy pinch on his daughter's clit."
"I'm exploding! Too strong! Can't breathe! Burns so good!"
"Release the pinch."
"I can breathe now,"
"Rub your butt."
"Tingles in my nipples!"
"Rub your back."
"Warm all over inside!"
"Slow back rub."
"Nice. Melting. Hey! I had a cum without you putting it in me!"
"Was it good?"
"YES!"
"So making love is more than fucking?"
"Lots more! I didn't know I could cum without you in me! So good!
Still have tingles!"
"Then let's work on those tingles. Underwear off. KY on you and
me. Ease back and take me in one long stroke."
"That was so good! I wanna do it every time."
"I might have some different things to do."
"Cumming without having you inside me was awesome! I'll do it any
way you want!"
"I'll hug your butt tight and push up in you."
"You touched my cervix! Do it again!"
"I'll hold you like this and move your body just a little to rub
your cervix."
"Your chest hair tickles my boobies!"
"Bee stings. Move you some more for a Daddy rub on his daughter's
cervix."
"Seeing stars!"
"A Daddy squeeze on his daughter's pretty butt!"
"Burns! Stop!"
"A Daddy pinch on his daughter's clit."
"Bur…"
She's rigid. Ease off the pinch so she can breathe. That's
better.
 "Faster!"
You're this conscious already? Let's get another orgasm. Move her
to rub her cervix. She's humping hard. Sorry, but I can't go
deeper. Rub her clit. She's jerking. Humping even harder. Another
clit pinch. The scream and she's limp. Rub her back. Hold her
waist and give me some movement pleasure. Rub and squeeze her
butt. She's squeezing me inside her. She's stirring.
"I came without any in and out! This is awesome! One cum without
you being inside me. Another one with you inside me but no in and
out. Was it a dream I did I cum while I was still glowing?"
"I hugged your butt tight and moved you a little to rub your
cervix again and then pinched your clit again and you came
again."
"Three times! So good! And you're still in me! I felt that jerk!
The tingles are getting stronger and it's happening inside me!"
"Does it feel good to have a Daddy jerk in his daughter's pussy?"
"It's too strong!"
"Daddy will jerk some more in his daughter's pretty little
pussy."
"It burns!"
"A Daddy squeeze on his daughter's pretty little butt."
"Daddy, stop!"
"A Daddy jerk in his daughter's pussy and a Daddy rub on his
daughter's clit and a Daddy squeeze on his daughter's butt."
"Exploding! Burns so strong! Can't breathe!"
She's doing all the movement now. Jerking. Humping me harder than
before. I think she'll sleep well tonight and probably not be
sore.
"Tired! So tingly! Nipples burn! Tir…"
Slow, gentle back rub. She needs calming. She's still squeezing
me inside. I'll give that some time to slow down before I leave
her empty. Don't want to wake her with a quick withdrawal.
Squeezes are slowing down and getting softer. Breathing's back to
normal. Ease me out of her and her up to my shoulder. I see that
frown. I don't think you like 'empty' after being 'full' so long.
Make your nest on my shoulder. That's better. The smile is back.
She should sleep well. Better set an alarm. It's not that late
for me but my snugglers make me sleep very soundly. We'll do her
questions in the morning.
---
Saturday, 26 September, 6:10AM
Beep!Beep! Beep!Beep!
Enough of that. She's still in the same place - and still
smiling.
"Good morning, Alicia."
"Good morning, Daddy! Last night was so good! You're the best
Daddy in the world!"
"Perhaps just the best one you know."
"I guess that's true, but I don't know how anyone could be
better. A cum without you in me! A cum with you in me but no in
and out! And another one after I fainted! I woke up just enough
to know it was happening but it was so good I couldn't talk! I
understand about my brain being the important sex organ. All the
'Daddy' and 'daughter' talk made it happen stronger and faster. I
like your 'slow and gentle'!"
"Glad you feel loved. Go pee."
"OK. Just a little tender when I walk. But you were in me a long
time!"
"That I was."
"Burns a little when I pee."
"Wipe, then I'll wash you and put the numbing cream on it."
"You always take of us."
"I might like you a little."
"A lot!"
"Lie on the towel. Spread your legs. The water is cold. The
rubbing may hurt as may the applying the cream. It will feel
better when I finish."
"Brrr! It is cold! Ow! Not too bad. Kiss it and make it better?"
"I don't think the cream will taste good. I will kiss your upper
lips."
"Nice!"
"Get dressed."
"Help me?"
"Touch the good places?"
"Un huh."
"Now we'll look for breakfast."
"Pancakes? Your special oatmeal?"
"Let's go look."
---
 "The oatmeal was yummy!"
"Dishes in the sink and you can help wash."
"OK."
"You agreed to that with no argument?"
"I still tingle when you touch me, even having your arms around
me while I wash and you dry!"
"So you don't need wild sex and bouncing all over the bed to
cum?"
"Just you doing the things that make me tingle."
"Finish drying that bowl and we can work on your questions."
"OK."
---
"Feel better about some of the things you thought were scary?"
"Un huh. The more I know the less scary some of them are. But
there's still some scary things!"
"That's true. Water will be limited when it's restored. The new
pipe might freeze if we have a very cold winter. The supply of
food and other things may be even more limited if the virus
spreads. More people will be sick and some of those will die. The
immediate things that can be done about the virus are to have
people avoid contact and wear masks and gloves. The hunt for old
bottled water may give them the information they need to make a
vaccine that protects people from the virus - we don't know if
that will work. Our food supply can be helped a little if we grow
things in the greenhouse. We have a limited water supply but we
know it's safe to drink. Are those all the things you had
checkmarks by?"
"Un huh. Some of the scary things we have to live with."
"Correct. But we can affect a few of them and you helped with
that."
"I helped?"
"The rain barrels."
"I'm thinking so much about the big things that I forgot those.
Even kids can help fix some of the problems."
"Yes. Feel better?"
"Un huh. I always feel better when I talk with you."
---
Saturday, 26 September, 7:20AM
Bzzt! Bzzt! Bzzt!
'Morganstern Greenhouse trucks here. Crew wants to talk with
you.'
"What's the message, Poppa?"
"The greenhouse crew wants to talk with me. Pack your things and
we'll go."
"Carry me?"
"Nice try but you're walking OK."
"I'm busted."
"No, you just have bee stings."
"Poppa!"
---
"Mr. Wilson?"
"Yes."
"Is there a way to get the truck in the back yard?"
"Poppa, there's a section on this side that can swing like a gate
when you take out some screws. But it takes four or five people
to move it."
"Come show me, Alicia. Then we can show Bill."
"OK."
"Over here, Poppa, where the big pieces of metal are."
"Can you bring me the battery drill and the Phillips screwdriver
bits?"
"I know where they are."
---
"Bill, if you have two guys inside lifting and one or two out
here pushing, this section should open."
"That's about 12 feet. Great! Makes backing this truck in so much
easier."
"I recognize the greenhouse materials. What's in the other
truck?"
"Planting soil, vermiculite, fertilizer, assorted seeds, some
small plants, a heater and a drip irrigation system."
"I didn't expect that."
"It's on the order, Mr. Wilson: 'Complete Family Garden
Greenhouse with planting and growing supplies'. There are a
couple of books and electronic copies of those books plus other
information is on this thumb drive. Did you want space for
growing more food in the pool greenhouse? I think we can add 10
feet to the length without any problems."
"That would also be good."
"There's another pallet of supplies for that area."
"You'll finish today?"
"No later than 6PM. The order has 'Expedited Shipping and
Installation'. That means we have two crews and both units will
be complete today."
"Very good. There are six girls who want to swim tomorrow and
maybe invite some friends to join them."
"They'll have a warm spot for that."
---
"How long will they be, Jack? We can't have a party tomorrow with
construction going on."
"They promised 6PM, Mindy. That's today. The pool greenhouse will
be extended ten feet and that space will be for growing things."
"Will the home center have all the supplies you need?"
"They're in the second truck - soil, fertilizer, seeds, plants -
you name it."
"And who'll be doing all this work?"
"Sarah, if we work out an assembly line, I think four adults and
six kids can do it all in a day or two. Planning and maybe the
soil mixing and placing today. Planting before and after the
party tomorrow. Determine where the water will come from for long
term irrigation."
"Does the water need to be as clean as what we drink?"
"Joe, that's the ideal but we could use what's in the aquifer if
we had a well."
"The County allows irrigation wells in areas where County Water
provides service. A well here for irrigation would be OK."
"You know someone who can drill one?"
"If you don't have a problem with dowsers."
"I've seen that done in many parts of the world. If your guy
finds good water, I don't care how he found it."
"'She', not 'he'."
"If she's successful, I don't care if she's a one-eyed purple
people eater."
"Purple people eater, Poppa?"
"Your music education is sorely lacking if you've never heard
that classic song. I think it's on my laptop. I'll play it for
you later."
"OK."
"Then I'll go get Gertrude."
"Gertrude, Joe?"
"My aunt Gertrude. She'll probably know who to call after she
determines where and how deep the water is."
"That's fine. We'll need someone to do the drilling if the water
is deep."

Saturday, 26 September, 11:45AM
"Lunch is ready. Jack, can you get the girls away from the
construction long enough to eat?"
"I think so. Any kid out here who wants a Nutella sandwich?"
"That was fast."
"They'll probably complain about PB&J."
"Hey! This is PB&J!  That's not what you said!"
"What did I say?"
"That there were Nutella sandwiches."
"You're sure?"
"Yes."
"No."
"Why the 'No', Paige?"
"You didn't say there were Nutella sandwiches. You asked if we
wanted one. That's not the same thing."
"Thank you for being observant."
"I think Jack gave most of you a lesson about hearing what you
wanted to hear instead of what he said."
"Yes, Momma."
"Yes, Miss Sarah."
"Try your sandwiches. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat
it for lunch…"
"We don't, Poppa?"
"No. You can have it for supper."
"Poppa!"
"Try it."
"It's good!"
"So peanut butter with raspberry jam is OK?"
"Un huh!"
"You back in conference today, Jack?"
"At 3, Joe. Did you finish all the installations yesterday?"
"Yes. Leah and Celia filled in for Alicia. I don't think I'll
call Amelia, Celia and Leah the 'ACL' team though. Sounds too
much like a sports injury."
"Dad, is that a long pun or a short shaggy dog story?"
"Your choice."
"Rachel, it's your turn to be with me today. Again, I don't know
how long it will be."
"I wanna go with you, Poppa."
"That's fine. The conference is at 3. Ask your mother to help you
choose things that will help you be quiet and still for a couple
of hours."
"Yes, Poppa."
---
Saturday, 26 September, 1:40PM
"Poppa?"
"Yes, Rachel?"
"I need you upstairs."
"On my way."
"Are these good choices?"
"Yes."
'Can we do the enema thing before we go to the truck? I'll wear
my longer dress and I can sit on you and snuggle and sleep that
way.'
'Are you sure? Having me inside you that long may make you sore.'
'I wanna try it anyway.'
'OK. But no kissy-face and no touchy-feely. I know you can't be
still if we do that.'
'I understand.'
'We need to go to my apartment long enough to do what you asked
but still be on time for the conference. I'll call you in a few
minutes.'
 'OK. I love you, Poppa.'
'I love you, Rachel.'
"I really did good?"
"Yes. A hug and a kiss good."
"Goody!"
"I think I left some paperwork at my apartment. If I go now, I'll
have time to shuffle through the stack and ensure I have it all.
Rachel, you ready?"
"Yes, Poppa. Carry me?"
"Not when you're so full of bounces that you bounce down the
stairs. I think you need to walk or run some of that off before
you must be quiet."
"Race you to your apartment!"
"Go!"
Stay just behind her. The soldiers look a bit confused.
"Playing a game, Corporal."
"Yes, sir. It's rare that we run for fun. Nice change."
"I win!"
"Not yet. You must beat me up the stairs."
"Not fair! Your legs are longer than mine."
"I'll carry your backpack."
"OK."
"I win! What's the prize?"
"After we're inside."
"Well?"
"You get the prize as soon as I put water on to heat. I don't
think you want your butt full of cold water."
"No!"
"Water's on, so I pick you up and squeeze and rub your butt and
kiss you."
"Nice prize!"
"Now to the bathroom."
"On the towel?"
"First I undress you. The dress will be in your way if you're in
a hurry."
"Yeah. My arms are up."
"And I kiss the dirty spots."
"Having you undress me is fun!"
"Underwear off."
"I like your hands on my bare butt!"
"And a kiss on your lower lips, Rachel?"
"Yes! Can you squirt water in my pussy too?"
"Let's do that first before I put the nozzle in your butt."
"I'm in the tub."
"I'll go mix the water so it's just right. Don't run away while
I'm gone."
"You're silly! I'm not gonna run off naked!"
"But you're giggling."
"You're fun!"
"Bag is ready. Lie down. Knees up. Spread your legs wide. A
little KY on you and the nozzle. I'll spread your lips and put
the nozzle in."
"Cold and hard."
"But this isn't."
"Warm! Feels good! How do I know I'm full?"
"Look down. Maybe when it squirts out like this?"
"Yeah. That's full. Do me again but lots of short, hard squirts?"
"OK, little squirt. Here's one."
"Feels good!"
"And two."
"Feels good too!"
"And three."
"I like this!"
"And you're full again. Nozzle's out. Stand up and spread your
lips to let it all out."
"Feels funny. Like I'm peeing from the wrong place."
"Lie down. This time I'll squeeze it hard until you start running
out."
"Feels good! It's in me deeper! Didn't touch there before! Feels
like I gotta pee!"
"I'll hold your lips together while you get up."
"Really full! Need to let it out."
"Just a minute longer."
"Feels fuller! But it tingles! Gotta go!"
"Go."
"That feels good going out. You know so many ways to give me
tingles!"
"Let me dry you off and then it's on the towel for your other
fill and empty."
"Rub my boobies!"
"These dirty spots aren't wet."
"I didn't say 'dry them'. I said 'rub them'."
"And squeeze your butt?"
"Always!"
"On the towel."
"Hard and fast the first time?"
"As much as you can manage, Rachel. On second thought, let me
help you sit on the throne with the nozzle in your butt. It won't
matter if you leak here - you're in the right place. I hold it in
place with one hand and squeeze the bag with my foot."
"Too full! No more!"
"Just a little more."
"Stop! Gonna leak!"
"Not while I hold it in."
"Tingles already! Gotta go!"
"Go."
"Oooh. Feels so much better when it's all out! That's was almost
like having you inside me! Can you get me that full again?"
"Add some water to the bag. Nozzle back in you. I hold it in
place and use my foot on the bag and put more in than last time."
"Feel it higher in me! Too full up there!
"Just a little more."
"That felt like a lot more! I'm too full!"
"And a little more."
"Stop! Gotta go!"
"Go."
"Better! It's been going on a long time."
"There was a lot in you."
"I feel empty inside."
"That's why we're doing this."
"Yeah! To fill it with something better!"
"This fill and one more. Really fast this time."
"Full higher up! Feels like it's behind my belly button!"
"Look at your tummy."
"It's sticking out!"
"It's getting full inside there. Watch now."
"Sticking out more! Too full! Stop!"
"Keep watching."
"Still getting bigger! Too full! Strong tingles! Stop!"
"Go."
"Feels good going out! My tummy is shrinking! Still coming out!
Funny fart. It's done."
"One more fillup, Rachel. Watch your tummy."
"Getting bigger. Feeling full even higher! Belly button way out!
Too full!"
"Just a little more"
"Tingles! Gonna leak! Tingles! Too full!"
"And the rest of it."
"Strong tingles! Tummy really big! Really strong tingles! Gonna
explode!"
"Let it out and I'll kiss you and rub a dirty spot and your
button."
"Seeing stars! Exploding! So good! Do me again!"
"Not again right now. Just a back rub while you squeeze it all
out of you."
"A funny fart."
"Take a deep breath and squeeze again."
"Another funny fart."
"Stand up and I'll wash your butt and legs. Those squirts and
funny farts splattered it all over your backside."
"Feels good when you wash me."
"I think you'd say that about anything I did."
"Anything that has touching in it."
"We'll need KY to do what you asked so I'll put some on and in
your butt now and pull your underwear up so it doesn't get on
your dress. I'll do something else when we're connected."
"I like being connected!"
"Remember that you're a little girl keeping her Poppa company
during a boring conference. No kissy-face or touchy-feely words
or motions."
"I gotta be still if I cum?"
"I don't think it'll be that good with you quiet and still in my
lap. If it is, just hug me tight and don't yell."
"That'll be hard. But it'll be different. You think I can cum
without any in and out?"
"Maybe. We can try that later today. The other girls went to my
apartment afterward while I read. You may also."
"Goody!"
"Time to get you dressed and us to the truck."
"OK. Can we race?"
"If you want, Rachel."
"Running again, sir?"
"Racing with her, Corporal."
"And you'll just barely lose."
"Correct. Did you see the two on the garage at the Haverson
house?"
"Only saw one. Will call in that there are two. I'm learning from
the books you loaned us but there's nothing like being in the
real world with a good teacher."
"I win!"
"Yes, you did. Inside and wait for me to turn off the cameras and
microphones before you say anything."
"Yes, Poppa."
"The red 'mute' switch turns off the cameras and microphones so
you can talk or use the toilet."
"Can I see the crazy toilet?"
"You can use it to pee so you're not asking in ten minutes."
"Yes, Poppa."
 "And while I help you I'll scan for audio and video bugs."
"Bugs? Like ants and spiders?"
"No. Electronic bugs that spy on people and places. The scanner
on the tablet sees three. I'll be back in a minute. Wipe when you
finish."
"What's that smell?"
"Burned electronics. I killed the bugs with a stun gun."
"Smells yucky."
"There'll be a bigger stink when the Colonel hears about it. Take
off your underwear and put them in side pocket of your backpack.
Then I'll help you get the dress out of the way and we'll get
connected."
"I'm done."
"That's too soon. You squeeze down and try to get more out or
tickle monster will have to help you."
"I'm squeezing!"
"I heard. Wipe. Flush."
"How?"
"This button."
"I can't reach that."
"OK. I'll pick you up. Push the button. Now back down."
"Warm! Big! Nice! Do I have it all?"
"Almost. Let's sit. I'll use the chair without arms so there's
room for your legs on either side of me."
"This is nice! You're in me deep and I get to snuggle!"
"Get your nest made. I'll be turning the cameras and microphones
back on in a minute."
"OK. Little wiggle. I'm good. Where's bear?"
"I took him out of your backpack and put him on the counter with
a couple of books while you peed."
"It just looks like I'm sleepy."
"Yes. Try to keep it looking that way."
"Yes, Poppa."
Be sure this long and wide-skirted dress is down and spread to
cover everything. She chose well - it covers nicely. Wonder if
this is part of a do-over for her? I'll ask later. She may be
satisfied with choosing what to do and how she's dressed to do
it. Another Sammy event, perhaps? I'll ask. It will do her good
to talk about anything that happened before, even the few
slightly positive things.
"Cameras on."
"There's numbers on the computer over there,"
"That's the countdown that tells us how long until things start.
One minute and five seconds and it counts down to zero."
"OK."
 "Ladies and gentlemen, could we begin? Jack, your suggestion
about out-of-date water was on the mark. We know that the initial
virus has been in the water for eleven months and we're
correlating water age with infection rates to determine the
optimum dilution for immunization. The CDC and USAMRIID have both
asked to hire you. It seems your lack of a medical degree is more
than covered by your ability to see solutions."
"Thanks to both of them, Colonel, but I'm quite happy to be
retired and spend time with one of my granddaughters."
"I see we've already bored her to sleep."
"Actually, we raced from place to place everywhere we went today.
She 'won' each time so I think she's tired enough to nap.
Colonel, a moment on Channel 5?"
"Yes, Jack."
"This is critical or you wouldn't have asked. What do you have,
Jack?"
"Bug infested vehicle."
"Origin?"
"Three different origins. Text to your personal cell number."
"Should we check for other infestations?"
"Especially if the vehicles and equipment were stored under
similar conditions."
"I'll contact the pest control people."
"You're first on the agenda, Dr. Simmons."
---
 "People, I think this is a good time for a break. Fifteen
minutes."
"Rachel?"
"Yes, Poppa?"
"Just checking if you were awake. Would you like your snack now?"
"I'd like to cum now! You're not moving in and out of me or doing
kissy-face or any touchy-feely stuff but the tingles are really
strong!"
"You need just a little more to cum?"
"Just a couple of minutes. Is the camera off?"
"Before I called your name. What if I put my hands under your
dress and lift you up and down and rub your dirty spots with my
thumbs?"
"Yes! Really strong! Rub harder! Longer in and out! Starting to
burn!"
"Rub and squeeze your butt."
"Even stronger!"
"Hold your butt with my fingers and rub your clit with my thumb
and move you in and out."
"Nipples burn! Seeing stars! I'm exploding!"
Still ten minutes left. Slow back rub to calm her down. Check her
backpack for a snack. The last of the brownies. I think theses
girls are worse chocoholics than I am. Put the brownies on the
counter. She's stirring.
"That was so good, Poppa. I don't know if I can stay like this
without squeezing you with my butt and wiggling and squirming for
more contact. I think I better get in normal lap position."
"Over to the toilet and I'll wipe your butt and roll the condom
up and put it in the trash."
"Condom?"
"I'll explain later."
"OK. It's a little tender when you wash there."
"We were connected a long time."
"I know - but it was good for a long time too."
"Underwear back up."
"Do I hafta?"
"Yes."
"OK."
"But you get a kiss for doing it."
"With tongue and a butt squeeze! That's s really good kiss! I'll
take my underwear off for you anytime!"
"I know, horny little girl. Back in place. Your snack is on the
counter."
"It's down to ten."
"So we're just in time. Quiet time for you."
"Yes, Poppa."
"Ladies and gentlemen, if we could reconvene? There are a few
people who won't be back with us today due to technical
difficulties. I think the techs will have all the bugs out for
tomorrow's conference. If not, you will be notified of any change
in meeting time. As the missing people are next on the agenda, it
seems we'll be ending early. Thank you for your participation.
See you tomorrow at 1600 unless you hear otherwise. Jack, a
moment on Channel 5."
"Yes, Colonel."
"You were correct. There were infestations of at least one
species at each location. The regular pest control people are now
assisting in uncovering the origin and method of infestation.
Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"See you tomorrow."
"You're done, Poppa?"
"Except for reading that stack of paper on the printer over
there."
"You will read a long time. I get to stay with you?"
"Yes."
"All night?"
"Probably not tonight. It's 4:15 and I'll probably have all this
read in time for supper,"
"Not fair!"
"I'm sorry you're not getting to spend the night, but the things
that happened with Amelia and Alicia weren't planned; they just
happened. Had you chosen one of those days, you might have gotten
'all night'. I didn't know it would happen. They didn't know it
would happen. You had choices and sometimes what we choose
doesn't work out as we think it will."
"You really didn't plan on all night with them?"
"I really, really didn't."
"It didn't work out like I wanted but I did get to choose. You're
good about giving choices."
"To the apartment so I can read."
"Carry me?"
"Butt sore?"
"A little and I don't want anyone to see me walk funny. They
don't need to know."
"Correct, smart girl. Everything in your backpack"
"Uh huh."
"Then I'll carry you."
Bleep! Bleep! Bleep!
"It's Uncle Jack and Rachel. Isn't it kinda early for him to be
done?"
"Let them in and ask him."
"Hi, Uncle Jack."
"Hi, Amelia."
"You're done early?"
"Yes, Amelia. There were some equipment problems so it ended
early. If you can't see and hear the other people, it's not much
of a conference."
"Rachel got carried?"
"Alicia, she was very good about thinking through and telling me
what would make it easier for her to be quiet when she didn't
think her first choice would continue to work. This is her
reward. She did make it to the break before asking to do things
differently."
"I guess that deserves a reward."
"I'm just checking in before I go read this stack of status and
background information. As on the other days, my girl for the day
will go with me."
"You'll be back before bedtime?"
"Leah, I plan to be back for supper. You know sometimes things
happen that change our plans. I planned to be in the conference
for at least another hour."
"I understand, Poppa. Sometimes even grownups don't get to do
what they plan."
"Correct, smart girl. See you all in a couple of hours."
---
"Can we be connected again while you read?"
"It may make the soreness worse."
"That's OK. I just want to be touching as much of you as I can."
"Then we should both get naked and I'll put some KY on and in you
and on me. If you sit facing the desk, I can rub dirty spots and
your button. There's something else I can do but you must be
sitting down first."
"I'm naked!"
"Like it ever takes you long to get undressed if there's any
touchy-feely involved. KY is done. I'll pick you up like this and
put you in place. Then a long, slow press down to fill you up
again."
 "So good! I already tingle! What's the thing you couldn't do
until I sat?"
"This."
"You jerked in me! That tingles! Can you make me cum without any
in and out?"
"We can try and see. You want to reach down and rub my balls?
Slow and gentle."
"Daddy hit me if I wasn't careful so I know how. Sammy loved
having his balls rubbed and rubbed my boobies the whole time when
we did this. I could make him squirt a bunch of times before I
got sore from being there so long."
"You have a very nice touch, Rachel."
"I'm doing my favorite person in the world!"
"Does Daddy's little daughter like having Daddy's dick in her
pretty little butt and having Daddy's balls in her daughter
hands?"
"Stronger tingles and all you did was talk to me!"
"Then would daughter like for Daddy's dick to jerk in her pretty
little butt?"
"Really strong tingles! Starting to burn!"
"Does daughter want Daddy's dick to hump up in her deeper?"
"Nipples burn! Too strong!"
"Daddy's dick will jerk some more in his daughter's butt."
"Seeing stars! I'm exploding!"
She's rigid. This isn't a big passage and her squeezes are
beginning to hurt. But it's a good hurt - she has what she
wanted. Cuddle her to me. Rub her back. Long, slow strokes. She's
relaxing.
"You did it, Poppa."
"Did what, Rachel?"
"Made me cum without in and out or kissy-face or touchy-feely.
The tingles are still there."
"Look at your tummy."
"It has ripples!"
"Put your hand on it."
"The bump is you! I felt it jerk! You do fill me up but it's a
good full. I'd do this every day if you'd let me."
"And why don't I let you."
"It makes me sore when I do a lot. But it feels so good while I'm
doing it! Can we do an in and out for another orgasm? I won't ask
for another one after that 'cause I probably couldn't walk at all
if I did."
"To the bed. On your tummy. I'll use more KY on both of us to
keep the soreness down. You will still be more sore when we
finish."
"I know, Poppa. You always tell us what to expect."
"You want fast or slow?"
"Start slow and get faster when I get more tingly."
"Horny little girl. In slowly."
"Warm! Big! So good! Strong tingles! The tingles from before
never went away!"
"You didn't wait long enough for them to go away."
"I can't wait! We're together and I won't get to spend the night
and I gotta do all I can now!"
"There will be other days."
"But you're in me now! Faster! Deeper!"
Nice that she seems to have stretched or a bend is straighter.
She's taking it all without pain. Having flushed her out
thoroughly probably helped. There's more room in that tight
little belly for foreign objects.
"Does daughter want Daddy's dick all the way in her pretty little
butt?"
"Deeper, Daddy!"
"And all the way out and all the way back in?"
"Faster, Daddy!"
"And a Daddy rub on a daughter dirty spot?"
"Rub harder, Daddy!"
"And a Daddy rub on a daughter button?"
"Seeing stars! Burning! I'm exploding!"
She's rigid again. Roll her to the top so she can breathe. This
would be a popular picture if I still shared pictures. Sit her
up. Rub her tummy. She's relaxing. Stirring already.
"The 'Daddy' talk made it happen really fast and hard! You were
right - I'm sore and it may hurt to walk. But I want you to stay
in me until it's time to leave."
"Sweetie, I know you want to make the most of our time together,
but making you hurt is not why we do this. It's about giving
pleasure, not pain. I'm lifting you off so I can see where it's
sore."
"Hold me, Poppa. Don't ever let me go! You're the best Daddy ever
and I want to be with you all the time! Hold me!"
"I have you, Rachel. Head on my shoulder. Talk to me."
"My first Daddy caught me and Sammy doing my butt. Sammy was
telling me we'd been there long enough 'cause he didn't want me
to be sore. He always had lotion to make it go in easy and he had
a watch so he knew how long it had been. Daddy said little sluts
like me needed to hurt and bleed so they'd know who was boss so
he tied me to the bed and him and all the uncles did my butt over
and over! It bled the whole time! I couldn't walk the next day
and it burned and bled every time I pooped and I had blood in my
underwear if I sat down so I stayed in bed all day but he came
and made me suck him and all the others! Now I do it with a Daddy
who makes me stop when I want to keep going 'cause he doesn't
want me sore. I love you, Daddy! I wanna stay with your forever!"
"I love you, too, Rachel. You do remember when you can say
'Daddy'?"
"Only when it's just us. I won't ever let anyone else know what
you do for me. It's my choice and no one else needs to know."
"As long as it's your choice and you're sure that it's what you
want to do."
"If I didn't want to, it'd be hard to tell you 'no' 'cause you
love me so much and I don't ever want to disappoint you."
"I think I'd know if you were doing something that you didn't
want to do. That's about the only thing you could do that would
disappoint me."
"I love you, Daddy."
"I know. It's time to wash your sore places and medicate them.
I'll bring warm water in here and put some in the tub for you to
sit in. I think a soak might help. After the soak, I'll wash and
medicate."
"Yes, Poppa. You're always taking care of us."
"I want you to nap - in the bed, not sitting on me…"
"But…"
"No buts. Not even this pretty butt. You need to be down flat for
a while so the sore places aren't being pressed on."
"Yes, Doctor Jack."
"I'm glad you understand."
---
"You're washed, dried and medicated. Underwear back on and in
bed. I think you'll be more comfortable without the extra fabric
of the dress wadding up around you."
"Kiss me goodnight?"
"Lips only."
"Yes, Poppa."
Less than a minute to be snoring. The little smile is back.
That's how a four year old should look when asleep. One less
monster - or monster event - in her closet now. Wonder how much
more she has in her closet and how big the closets are for Leah
and Alicia? They had longer to accumulate monsters and monster
events. I hope Sammy can stay under the radar and give his gentle
love to other little girls. Not an approved practice, but he did
help some of these girls. Back to my unpaid job - but it does
have nice rewards.
