Chapter 2 - Robert's Strap

After a day of shopping it was a new Amy that sat next to Robert on the way back 
to his apartment. With new clothes, her hair cut short but neatly, her fingernails 
cleaned and polished, no one would have recognized the girl beside Robert as the 
same one who left with him in the morning. Amy felt grateful to her father's 
partner, and shuddered to think what would have happened to her had he not been 
there to pick her up from the police station. It was wonderful to ride in a car again 
as a simple passenger, to sit where it was warm and watch the grime of the street 
from the safety of her seat.

As they rolled down the streets, Amy's thoughts wandered, finally focusing on 
Robert's strap. She had spent too many nights thinking about how the implement 
would feel on her, too many nights with her hands between her legs fantasizing 
about it. She had to know. Finally she blurted out: "Robert, how come there's a 
strap hanging in your room?"

Robert glanced over. "I used it on Tricia while we were still married. We both felt 
that Tricia's getting the strap every so often did her some good."

"You actually punished her with it? For what?"

"Tricia was a lot like you. She had a wild side that when let out of control, would 
wreck her life. In Tricia's case, it was drinking. I don't think you're old enough to 
remember, but Tricia was an alcoholic. It got so bad, I was thinking about 
divorcing her. But then one day we made a deal. Every time she drank alcohol, I 
strapped her. She knew that would be the price of a drink. If she had more than 
one drink, she got more than one strapping. After a while, Tricia quit drinking." 

"And you punished her on the bare bottom?"

"Of course I punished her on the bare bottom. How else would I punish her?"

Amy was quiet for a few minutes, then softly said "I keep having this fantasy, that 
I was Tricia. I…I wanted you to strap me like you did her. I can't stop thinking 
about it."

Amy's heart jumped into her throat. That just came out! She had not meant to say 
it! Oh my God! What would Robert think of her?

The tension in the car mounted as Amy sat in mortified silence. Finally Robert 
looked over at her and commented, "That's something for us to discuss when we 
get home. I suppose some punishment might do you good, given the crap that 
you’ve pulled and everything that's happened."

Amy felt whirlwind of emotion. She was terribly afraid, but at the same time was 
intensely aroused. She became wet, and hoped that Robert would not notice. Was 
he serious? Was he actually thinking about strapping her? True, Amy had 
fantasized about it endlessly, but now that it might actually happen...

Another side of Amy told her that the whole thing was impossible. Of course he 
would not strap her. How could he? That thought, of nothing happening after all, 
filled Amy with as much anxiety as the thought of being punished.

Robert and Amy arrived back at his apartment and he parked the car in the 
underground garage. Upon entering the apartment Robert said "Amy, put your 
stuff away and then we can talk."

Amy simply took all of the boxes out the bags and stacked them neatly in the 
closet. She folded the bags and brought them to the kitchen and then went to the 
living room were Robert was going over some of his business papers. He looked 
up at her with a very irritated expression.

"A couple of things. First, I want to know what you were doing in my bedroom. I 
never said you could go in there." 

"I'm sorry…I was just curious. But I swear I didn't touch anything except the 
strap."

"You touched the strap. Amy, didn't it occur to you that maybe that was 
something private between Tricia and myself, that maybe you had no right to be 
in my room, and maybe you had no business touching Tricia's things? Don't you 
have any respect for anyone? For anything at all?"

Amy said nothing, but her face went pale and she looked like she was about to 
cry. Robert sighed loudly. He wanted to berate her over the violation of privacy, 
but held his tongue. She had meant no harm, and it was clear she felt guilty 
enough about it already. He pushed ahead with the second, and much more 
important question…why.

"All right, enough said about that. Now, what's this about you wanting to be 
punished?"

"I really don't know. I guess I did some bad things... It just sort of came out I 
guess."

"You did some bad things. Yeah, I guess you did, didn't you? And you think that 
somehow a sore butt will fix everything?"

"I…don't know. I don't know why I'm thinking these things."

"'Thinking these things'…what things?" Robert stood up and walked over to her. 
"Amy, would you for once, try to help me figure you out? What is it that you 
want? What is it that you're after? I mean…are you really serious about this 
business of wanting to be punished?"

Amy swallowed hard. This was it, the moment she needed to decide whether to 
fulfill her fantasy or not. She was terrified of the choice in front of her. She knew 
that if Robert didn't punish her at that moment, she always would wonder what 
would have happened if he had. Yet, to be punished! By her father's business 
partner! How could she want that? 

Amy shook from the stress of her dilemma. However, she knew what choice she 
had to make. She forced herself to nod slightly. 

Robert paused, his own emotions in turmoil at that moment. He was aroused by 
the thought of punishing this pretty girl, but concerned about those same feelings 
of arousal. The last thing he wanted was any hint of sex between himself and his 
dead friend's daughter.

What was obvious, however, was that Amy badly wanted to be punished. He 
wondered if perhaps there was something to her thought about "a sore butt fixing 
everything". He knew that John Debbs had never punished Amy when she was 
little. By the time she was older it was too late to discipline her, or so John had 
thought. Maybe it hadn't been too late. Maybe, in her most secret thoughts, she 
had wanted to be disciplined all along. Maybe that was her problem. Perhaps…a 
few sessions with the strap in high school would have kept Amy and Courtney at 
home, and prevented the entire road trip disaster.

Robert was well aware that punishing her now would be a huge gamble and the 
experience easily could go very wrong. However, it seemed that Amy did truly 
want to be punished, if for no other reason to find an excuse to change her 
behavior. He pushed his doubts aside and spoke to her in the most authoritative 
voice he could muster:

"Alright…fine. You'll get your punishment. First, I want you to go to your room 
and take off all your clothes. I mean everything, including your earrings and 
watch. Once you've done that you'll go in my room and get the strap. I want you 
to bring it to me. Once you're back out here I'll tell you what to do next."

Amy's heart jumped into her throat. Saying nothing, she turned to go to her room 
to follow Robert's order to get undressed. 

The strapping! It was actually going to happen! As her shaking hands struggled 
with the buttons and zippers of her clothes, Amy realized that she was no longer 
excited. She was just plain scared. At the same time she also was determined. She 
had fantasized endlessly about this moment. The fantasy had a grip on her that she 
couldn't even begin to understand. She felt herself being pulled forward, as 
though she had little control over her own actions.

Robert cleared an oblong table that was up against a wall, and pulled the table into 
the center of the living room. The table was perfect for a punishment. It was about 
two feet wide and four feet long, and very strongly built. When he was satisfied 
that he would have plenty of room to swing, Robert left the table in place and 
faced the hallway to the bedrooms.

Her heart still pounding, Amy, now naked, walked into Robert's room to get the 
strap. Suddenly she felt very self-conscious and tried to cover herself with her 
hands as she walked out of Robert's room. To make matters worse, Amy had 
decided to shave her pubic hair that very morning, which would expose her even 
more. As she approached with her hand over her crotch Robert gave Amy a look 
of impatience. "What the hell are you doing?"

Amy stared at Robert's feet and shyly held the strap out to Robert. "I guess I am 
just a bit scared."

"Amy, keep in mind you're doing this because you want to. You have every right 
to go back in your room, get dressed, and drop the whole thing. But if you want to 
go through with this, you'll do it my way. Now, either you drop your hands and 
forget about this modesty crap, or you'll go back to your room and get dressed. 
Which is it?"

With every bit of her willpower Amy slowly dropped her hands. Suddenly she 
straightened up and felt a strange resolve in herself. She would have no secrets. 
With her hands at her sides, Amy stood straight, waiting for Robert's next order.

Robert took a moment to enjoy the view of her attractive body. He began to sweat 
as arousal hit him full-force. Until this moment he had not truly realized how 
pretty Amy really was. Finally, he forced himself to stop admiring her. 

"So, are you ready?" 

Amy nodded. Robert walked over to the table and placed his hand on it. "Good. 
Now I want you to bend over the end of this table." 

Amy walked over and did as she was told. "Now grab hold of the edge in front 
with your hands, and put your feet on the outside of the table legs in the back." 

When Amy complied, she felt the cool air of the apartment caress her most 
intimate areas. She was aware of how exposed she was between her bottom 
cheeks. With her legs spread and her bottom turned up, her body certainly hid no 
secrets from Robert now. 

The sight confronting Robert was one that would have severely tested any man. 
The girl’s lovely bottom was on full display. Her legs were wide apart and her 
entire backside was turned up. Her anus and vagina were in clear view, beckoning 
him to unzip his pants and enter her. Robert checked himself, however. He needed 
to focus. Amy was bent over for discipline, not sex. He forced himself to step 
over to her left side and begin the strapping on her waiting bottom.

Amy heard Robert's faint steps as he positioned himself. He gently tapped the end 
of the strap on her left bottom cheek, drew it back, and with a loud CRACK laid 
on the first swat. Instantly a rectangle across the center of Amy's bottom left 
cheek turned from white to bright pink. Amy jerked and bit her lip. Tears formed 
in her eyes. She was shocked at how much it hurt.

Robert was determined to punish Amy at a very leisurely pace. He wanted to 
maximize the effect of the swats by spacing them apart every 30 seconds. Waiting 
between blows allowed Amy to feel each swat separately and appreciate it before 
receiving the next. The slow pace also gave him the opportunity to enjoy the sight 
of her slowly reddening bottom. 

Robert studied the first pink rectangle marking the left side of the girl’s bottom. 
He then walked over to her right side, tapped the strap on her right bottom cheek, 
and marked it with a sharp back-handed blow. This time Amy let out a noise that 
was part sob, part grunt.

For the third blow, Robert again took up position on Amy's left side. This time he 
tapped the base of her bottom with the strap, right above her thighs. Oh God, 
thought Amy. CRACK! This time Amy let out a much louder sob. Robert noticed 
tears on her face and she had started to cry, but she stayed in position for him.

CRACK! Another swat on the left bottom cheek, above the first. Another 
rectangle turned from white to pink on Amy's left bottom cheek. Amy sobbed 
again. CRACK! Another back-handed swing on the right bottom cheek. Robert 
played tennis, and had a vicious backhand, as Amy was learning the hard way.

Again Robert moved over to Amy's left side for the next swat across both bottom 
cheeks. A light tap of the strap, and CRACK! right across the center of Amy's 
bottom. Amy grabbed the table edge with all her strength and sobbed.

With the sixth swat of the strap Robert had established his pattern on Amy: left 
cheek, right cheek, then a swat across both cheeks. Amy had completely forgotten 
her earlier embarrassment of being so fully exposed to Robert. Her world became 
the pain being inflicted on her bottom, pain that intensified with each swat. 
However, she was determined to see this through. She had promised herself that 
she would take whatever punishment he chose to give her.

CRACK! The seventh swat was harder than any of the others, and caught the 
tender skin at the inner part of Amy's left cheek. Amy screamed for the first time 
as she kicked out her left leg and turned slightly.

"Stay in position!" Amy quickly straightened herself and returned her foot back to 
the outside of the table leg.

Robert walked over to Amy's right side. He waited for the girl to calm down 
before giving her the eighth swat. CRACK! A vicious back-hand blow caught the 
inside of her right bottom-cheek. Amy, instead of screaming again, started 
sobbing loudly. Her whole body shook with her sobs. This time Robert did not 
wait, but quickly slashed the strap across both cheeks right in the middle. The 
young woman continued to sob.

Robert stopped to examine his work. Amy's bottom was now almost completely a 
deep pink, with only a few small areas of white left. Robert decided that he 
wanted another scream from his subject. She had asked for this and he was not 
going to let her off.

"OK, stick your butt out as much as you can for the next one." Amy managed to 
spread herself a little more. Amy's efforts to comply gave Robert a complete view 
of her labia and bottom-hole, framed by thick pink stripes. Robert now sported a 
furious hard-on under his pants. To see this lovely girl, exposed like this...

Robert tapped the strap at the spot where Amy's left bottom check met her thigh. 
He drew it back. CRACK! Amy screamed and let go of the table. She looked back 
at Robert through her tears, biting her lip. That was the worst! She could not 
believe how much it hurt!

"Amy! What did I tell you!? Get back down!" She struggled to get back down and 
find the table edge with her hands.

"Prepare yourself. You are getting the same on the other side!." This time there 
was no warning pat, just a CRACK! and then the pain. Amy screamed again, but 
managed to stay down.

The next swat landed squarely across the upper part of both cheeks. Robert had 
been concentrating on the lower part of Amy's bottom, but the twelfth swat 
quickly added color to the upper part of her backside.

CRACK!...CRACK!...CRACK!...CRACK!...CRACK!...CRACK! Robert 
concentrated the next six strokes right at the middle of Amy's bottom cheeks. By 
now all of her bottom was a dark pink, and was starting to swell. In spite of her 
best efforts, Amy was shaking violently from crying, and her knees were 
quivering.

It took Robert every bit of his willpower to keep himself from taking Amy right 
then. But he couldn't, he knew that it would wreck her trust in him. 
Subconsciously he took out his internal conflict in the next three strokes, all 
delivered to the upper part of Amy's bottom...CRACK!...CRACK!...CRACK! The 
final stroke was so hard that Amy shot up. Instinctively her hands reached behind 
as she sought ease the pain. In an instant she realized what she had done, but 
could not let go of her bottom. Amy looked at Robert with pleading in her eyes. 
"Robert..." she sobbed.

"So you think that you had enough?" Robert asked. Amy's eyes filled with tears 
again, but suddenly she violently shook her head no. Robert watched with 
amazement as the girl again stretched herself over the table. Slowly she spread her 
legs and placed her feet on the outside of the table legs, and then she returned her 
hands to the table edge in front. Amy cried quietly as she waited for the rest of her 
punishment.

Robert's heart went out to the poor girl at that moment. Amy made it clear that she 
would do her best to take any punishment he wanted to give her. She was totally 
submissive to him, willing to accept his judgment of what he thought was best for 
her. He suddenly felt even more responsibility for Amy. His earlier arousal was 
gone now, replaced with something far deeper and far more intense.

This punishment would have to continue. Amy had committed both of them to 
further swats by lying back down on the table. Still, Robert knew by looking at 
her bottom that the strapping could not go on much longer. Welts were already 
forming and a too many more swats would risk breaking her skin. Robert decided 
to give Amy six additional swats and then end her punishment. He took up 
position behind her left side and tapped her bottom again.

CRACK! Amy immediately started sobbing again as the strap hit the already dark 
area at the base of her left bottom-cheek. CRACK! Another backhanded swat to 
the lower part of Amy's right bottom cheek resulted in a scream. CRACK! The 
next swat went across the lower part of both bottom cheeks, precisely over the 
spot where Robert had laid the first three hits of the punishment. Amy's hands 
again shot back over her bottom, but she managed to get them back on the table 
legs before Robert could say anything. CRACK!...CRACK! Two more swats 
caught the tops of Amy's thighs. CRACK! The final swat went across the middle 
part of Amy's bottom.

"Alright, you can take your hands off the table edge and relax your legs. But I 
want you to stay bent over the table." Amy buried her face in her hands and after 
a few minutes managed to quiet her crying.

Robert set the strap on the table next to Amy, and examined her bottom. He had 
done a thorough job on her. Purplish welts punctuated the deep pink color, and 
there were several blood blisters on both cheeks. However, as Robert looked over 
the welts and blisters, he was satisfied that he had not broken the skin anywhere 
her bottom.

Robert sat down in the easy chair behind Amy. The sight of the girl still bent over 
excited him again, and he decided to take a few minutes to enjoy looking at her. 
Once satisfied, he finally decided to end Amy's punishment. He took her hand to 
help her stand up. She bit her lip as she rubbed her bottom.

Robert left the living room and came back with a glass of water. He put his arm 
around her bare shoulder and pressed the glass to her lips. She took it with a 
trembling hand and emptied it immediately. Robert then helped Amy to her feet. 
She immediately threw her arms around him and started sobbing into his 
shoulder. Robert said nothing for a few minutes, satisfied to comfort her. She 
needed to be held, comforted, forgiven.

As Amy held on to Robert and her tears began to soak his shirt, he reflected that 
her healing process could not begin until she was ready to forgive herself. He was 
satisfied that would indeed happen; she had convinced him when she laid back 
down on the table for the six final swats. Even now, Robert suspected that Amy's 
crying was only partly due to the pain in her bottom. He suspected, and hoped, 
that some of her guilt was being purged as well, through all those tears.

Finally Amy's crying subsided. Robert put his arm around her shoulder and 
walked her back to her room. He pulled back the covers and she lay down on her 
stomach. With that he covered her up. Amy closed her eyes and Robert saw a 
look of peace on her face that he had not seen on her before. He noticed a change 
in her breathing, indicating that she had gone to sleep.

Robert turned out Amy's light and left her room. As he put the living room back 
in order, he reflected that the experience could not have gone better for her. It was 
obvious that she had the internal strength to overcome her high school behavior 
and the road-trip disaster. A successful court date, enrollment in college, and 
some oversight to get her through the first semester were all that she needed.
