PART ONE:
ANGIE
Summer in Chamberlain was hazy and idyllic. The city had the down-home atmosphere of a Norman Rockwell print; a sleepy patchwork of tree-lined avenues and painfully green lawns. The streets droned with cicadas and the ponds with dragonflies, their streamlined bodies glittering like emeralds in the morning sun. Its picket-fence suburbs were perhaps the most American of the regional townships. On a fine, clear day, you could smell the heady aroma of apple pie drifting down the sidewalk; a cinnamon wave exhaled from a thousand kitchen windows.
Kings Domain extended over the eastern ridge of the city, bordered by Memorial Drive on one side and Chamberlain Heights on the other. A large, rambling parkland crisscrossed by jogging paths and pine groves, it claimed a history dating back to pre-revolutionary times (hence the anachronistic title). The Commemorative Fountain at the middle of the Park was a favored meeting place with the Sole Parents Society, mainly due to its close proximity to the Adventure Playground.
Bradley Wilson couldn't be described as a sole parent, although he'd recently 'inherited' responsibility for an orphaned child. His young cousin Angie Raymond had adopted him as a defacto parent over the past few months, a role he'd grown into with a certain degree of rueful satisfaction. A second year postgrad, Brad had originally joined Sole Parents hoping to free up his weekends via the care-giver exchange. Much to his surprise, he'd discovered a network of support entirely missing from his immediate family. He'd made several friends within the Society - mostly women his own age, quietly sympathetic towards his unusual situation. His weekends were still as busy as ever, but the hidden benefits were more than adequate.
And, if nothing else, it had provided numerous playmates for Angie, the proverbial blessing in disguise from Brad's viewpoint.
The air was crisp and still as they made their way through Memorial Gardens. They were cutting through the Wildlands, a low, rolling pine glade riddled with bike tracks and mystery walks.
Most Saturday mornings, the Playground was overrun by hordes of yowling children. Brad could hear their excited howls echoing along the trail. Sounded like a full scale riot, even at this distance. The majority would be little girls from the Heights district; pixie-faced angels decked out in pastel pinks and yellows.
Angie scampered along beside him, swinging happily from his right hand. Her bright red sun-frock clung to her waifish figure, hemline sweeping about her knees with each capering step. She'd been looking forward to this outing all week; most of her friends from playgroup were going to be there, along with some of the girls from her school.
It was shaping up to be a wonderful day. They were going to have a picnic on the grass with the ladies from Sole Parents, followed by a splash in the Fountain and a game of hunt 'n' catch in the Fort.
Best of all, Bradley had brought his DIGITAL CAMCORDER (that was how she actually thought of it; in capitals and italics), the one with the LCD DISPLAY and the AUTOZOOM. Brad had bought it down at Radio Shack a couple of weeks ago so he could tape her playing on the swings and slides and monkey bars. They often watched it on Brad's DVD before she went to bed; it was becoming something of a family tradition.
"Are you going to film me playing in the Fort?" she chortled, betraying her impatience to get the morning underway.
"Sure will," Brad replied offhand, glancing off into the pinewoods.
"What about Lindy? Are you gonna film her too?" Angie demanded, tugging energetically at his hand.
"Yeah, if she's wearing a dress," he answered offhand. Angie didn't bother asking the most obvious question; she already knew the answer.
"What about Jane?" she inquired, bouncing about at the end of his arm.
"She always wears shorts," Brad observed laconically.
"Not this time!" Angie exclaimed in all seriousness, "I told her she had to wear a skirt today!" Brad almost laughed despite himself. What else had she ordered Janey Glover to do?
"OK, then" he agreed magnanimously, as if conferring some vast favor. Flexing the tendons along his forearm, Brad hefted the girl off the ground, dangling her from his wrist with her feet waving in mid-air. He carried her along the trail for some twenty odd paces, then dropped her lightly onto her feet.
She skipped along the path singing a hopscotch chant he recalled from his childhood: "Tom-and-Becky, sitting-in-a-tree-K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First-comes-love, then-comes-marriage, then-comes-Tom-with-a-baby-CARRIAGE!"
Brad smiled at the memories the song invoked: fresh-faced school girls with yellow ribbons, tartan skirts and white cotton underpants. They were young, they were animated, they were hauntingly beautiful. And not one of them could have held a candle to Angie.
They walked on a little further until they came to a sunlit clearing with a log bench at one side. Bradley took a seat, turning the digicam over in his hands and flipping the cover off the lens. Angie ambled on for several paces, then looked around when she realized she was walking alone. Turning back to join him at the bench, she scrutinized her cousin with a quizzical expression.
"What're you doing?" she asked.
"I think it's time we took a white balance," he answered, looking experimentally through the viewfinder. Angie knew what he was talking about, he'd been teaching her how to use the camera around the house. The WHY-BALANCE was the first thing you did after you switched the power on. Trouble was, they couldn't set the highlights out here on the bike trail. Everything was the wrong color.
"We forgot to bring the big white card," she said, absently kicking her feet through the woodchips.
"Well, we'll just have to use your knickers then, won't we?" Brad replied, snapping open the LCD.
Angie's expression changed. Her little mouth gaped open, her cheeks flushed with surprise as she registered his words. Her skin started to tingle, a storm of butterflies erupted through her belly. Her fingers dropped protectively to the front of her dress, as if it was preparing to spring up by itself. She knew exactly what he wanted her to do, and it made her head spin with embarrassment.
"BradLEY!" she cried, looking 'round the pine-glade, "we can't do THAT!" Her voice dissolved into a stream of helpless giggles.
"Why not?" Brad asked, testing the auto focus, "I've seen your undies before."
"But that's differENT!" she protested in righteous indignation (although he was completely right: he had seen her undies like a zillion times before).
"How?" Brad retorted, arching one eyebrow inquiringly.
"I don't know, it just IS," Angie sputtered in girlish exasperation, "anyway, you CAN'T set the why-balance off my panties."
"They're white aren't they?" Brad asked reasonably enough.
"Well..." she replied, blushing wildly, knowing he was teasing her, "yeah, they are." She shuffled from foot to foot in an agony of indecision.
"Well, I guess it's settled then," Bradley said, lifting the camera to eye-level.
Angie could feel her defenses crumbling; Brad was waiting expectantly, and part of her secretly wanted to play along. She was already tugging at her hemline, raising the dress to mid-thigh. Her arms were buzzing with gooseflesh, her heart drum-rolling with anticipation. It felt so incredibly naughty: despite her tender years, Angie knew that little girls didn't just lift their skirts in public.
Not on purpose, anyway. But then again...
It wasn't much different to when Bradley filmed her hanging upside down from the Jungle Gym. Or when she came down the High Slide with her frock sailing around her waist. Or when she showed her friends how to do cartwheels on the grass. As a matter of fact, Brad had a small library of AVIs dedicated his younger cousin. Angie getting dressed in the morning. Angie putting on her babydoll. Angie doing handstands in the backyard. Angie modeling her new underwear in front of the mirror; Angie dancing in her new underwear in front of the mirror.
"OK- a little higher now," Brad said, dropping to one knee in front of her. Angie looked down and discovered that she'd been twisting the frock between her fingers, unconsciously hoisting the curtain, so to speak. The hem was less that an inch from the tip of her panties. Her legs were trim and shapely, the skin as pale as an English carnation. Angie stared up in round-lipped surprise, struggling to suppress her high, tinkling laughter. What was she DOING?!
"Bradley," she sniggled breathlessly, unable to believe she was actually doing this. The front of Angie's skirt began to rise, just the barest flittering of red cotton. A sense of exhilaration filled her veins. She glanced away in childish denial, her cheeks glowing maraschino red. This was soooo embarrassing! Why did he always do this to her?
"Come on, no need to be shy," Brad coaxed, gesturing with the camera. "we'll show all your friends next time they come over."
This was too much for Angie. Sputtering with repressed mirth, she hiked her dress up over her waist, her tiny feet dancing with excitement. White satin panties flashed into view, gleaming with an alabaster finish in the sunlight. Tight elastic trimmings dimpled her pearly flesh, floral lace insets embellished the hips.
"All right, now - big smile for the camera," Brad instructed, pressing the zoom, "skirt right up to your chin."
"Noooooooo!" Angie moaned, but the dress climbed up her bare torso all the same. Waves of sweet humiliation rolled through her tummy. He only needed her panties for the why-balance: why did she have to hold her frock so high? He didn't need to see her whole body, did he? Giggling uncontrollably, she posed for the digicam with her sleek, supple figure on exhibition.
Brad tracked the camera up and down, marveling at the lush expanse of naked midriff spread out before him. Lowering his sights fractionally, Brad zoomed in on the girl's navel.
Angie had one of those painfully cute belly-buttons that curved in like a tiny thimble. He'd always found it one of her most appealing features, and never lost an opportunity to explore it with a gently probing finger-tip. Even now, he couldn't resist tracing an index around its softly pursed rim. Reaching out with his right hand, he dipped his pointer inside her tummy-cup. Angie jumped in galvanic reaction.
"Bradley, don't!" she squealed, jiggling her pantied hips, "that TICKLES!!"
"Really?" he enquired politely, "well, how about this, then?"
"NOOOO!! STOP IT! DOOOOON'T!!" Angie screamed at the top of her lungs. This was out and out torture, but for some reason, she didn't try to run away. The skirt remained poised at her shoulders, waving from side to side like a can-can dancer's petticoats. Chuckling under his breath, Brad continued spidering his fingers around her tummy, ignoring her shrieks and pleas. Stamping her little feet, Angie whipped her head from side to side, golden ringlets swishing around her face.
"BRADLEY! STOP! THAT TICKLES!! NOOOO!"
The torture went on for close to a minute (and would have gone on considerably longer if not for the imminent risk of discovery). By the time they finished, Angie was trembling from crown to heel, pink-faced, short of breath and somewhat short of temper. He hadn't needed to do a why-balance at all! He'd just wanted to tickle her belly button while her skirt was up.
"You're mean!" she said crossly, dropping her frock back to a more dignified position. Her hair was a mass of wild blond curls and her left shoulder strap had slipped half-way down her arm. She slid it back over her shoulder, pushing out her lower lip in a classic teenie-pout. "You always tickle me too much, Bradley!"
"Hardly tickled you at all," Brad remarked, closing the LDC with an echoing click.
"Yes, you did! And it wasn't funny."
"You look so cute when you're sulking."
"I'm not sulking!"
"Come over here and give me a kiss."
"No!" she refused decisively, but her eyes were twinkling with anticipation. She hadn't really been angry with him: like all little girls, she adored a good tickling in the arms of big, strong man; especially when she had no choice in the matter. She just wanted him to make it up to her was all. And yes, she wanted to give him a kiss - along with a cuddle and a great big hug - but she wanted him to make her do it. Fortunately, Brad could read her mind as easily as he could read her expression.
"All right, that's it!" Brad said, rearing up off the ground with his arms outstretched, "I think it's time for a SPANKING."
Angie screamed and ran down the path, woodchips scattering in every direction. She knew he wasn't really going to spank her, but the only thing better than being chased was being caught. Her toes scarcely touched earth as she bolted out of the clearing, but fast as she was, Bradley was on her in an instant.
He swept her up with an ear-splitting roar, tossing her high overhead in a twisting spiral of arms and legs. The world turned upside down for an amazingly long moment, then she was plummeting into his hands, her dress filliping in the updraft. Gathering her voraciously against his chest, Bradley angled her head up so that her face was only an inch from his. She struggled in his grip like the heroine in a Victorian Romance - but she didn't struggle very hard.
"What's it going to be, Kid?" Brad rasped in his best Jimmy Cagney, "a kiss on the lips, or a smack on the bottom?"
For an answer, Angie wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the corner of the mouth. It was little more than a chaste, virginal press of the lips, but it was as pure as the love of a child. They smooched, they snuggled, they spooned until Angie remembered why they'd come down here in the first place and asked to be put down. Brad placed her carefully on her feet.
"So - ready to get going?" he asked, taking her hand as they set off down the trail.
"Yeah," Angie replied, beaming up at him.
Bradley's eyebrows went up towards his hairline. Nostalgia poured through his mind in a flood of half-forgotten words (Tom-and-Becky-sitting-a-tree-K-I-S-S-I-N-G!). Remembering those long vanished playmates with their plaits and skipping ropes, he was glad they'd decided to come out this morning. Quite suddenly, he couldn't think of a better way to spend a weekend.

Re: Hidden Benefits
PART TWO:
LINDY & JANE
Rounding a long, sloping bend, they emerged on the far side of the Fountain and were immediately engulfed in a drove of stampeding children. They surged past in a rush of knees and elbows, almost dragging Angie off in the deluge.
Brad steered a course through the human tide, navigating towards the picnic benches beneath the weeping willows. Four or five regulars from Sole Parents were reclining in the shade, sipping fruit juice and trading the week's gossip. Two of them waved in Brad's direction, beckoning him forward.
Four of the usual suspects were present; Mary Glover and Deborah Lambert from the Westside, Carol Thompson from Newtown Playgroup. Cathy Everett sat to one side, keeping watch on the kids. The Rituals of Greeting were observed, the obligatory wisecracks made. The whole process lasted around a minute, then Brad was planted comfortably in the center of the group, basking in their good-natured acceptance. He'd grown quite popular over the past few months, being one of the Society's few resident males.
However, it was Angie who was the definitive center of attention. Kisses were lavished on her freckly cheeks; teasing fingers skittered over her neck and shoulders. Angela squealed with pleasure, lapping up the attention, then ran over to hide behind her cousin, blushing to the roots of her hair.
Brad nodded along in casual satisfaction. None of it was empty flattery, his cousin was an unusually pretty little girl. He'd noticed that young, single mothers were particularly susceptible to her huge, liquid eyes and baby-soft features. Any one of them would have been happy to pack her up and take her home for the weekend.
"You want a soda, honey?" Deborah Lambert offered, trying to coax her out from Bradley's shadow. Angie wasn't budging (she knew full well that Debbie only wanted to snatch her up and gobble her tummy), but her smile melted every heart within visual range. Brad checked the settings on his camcorder while the drink was poured, glancing out towards the Playground.
The Indian Fort was swarming with sun-dappled figures, clambering over the rope bridge and body surfing down the high-slide. A small party of boys congregated at the bottom of the monkey bars, yelling taunts out to the girls and making half-hearted attempts to chase them around the teeter-totters. Business as usual, in other words. Brad raised the digicam and clicked on the power.
"There you go, sweet-heart," Debbie said, handing over a cup of garishly bright orange sludge. Angie stepped tentatively forward, reaching out for the saccharine horror.
"What do you say?" Brad prompted without looking up.
"Thank you," she trilled in her fluting soprano, then retreated before those girl-snatching hands could descend on her. This was, in fact, a much beloved game, one she'd played countless times before. Deborah Lambert was a world class tummy-gobbler; half the fun was evading her clutches until the end of the picnic.
Angie stepped back behind her protector, placing a hand on his shoulder while she solemnly emptied her cup. Brad finished his preparations and slid the LCD into position, tracking slowly across the playing field.
Just at that moment, Angie heard her name being called in high, keening tones. Everyone turned towards the Playground, grinning at the source of the disturbance. Two little girls were approaching at breakneck speed, their voices overlapping with exhilaration. Abandoning her cousin without a second's hesitation, Angie ran out to meet them, her hair whipping out in albino streamers.
Lindy Thompson and Janey Glover came racing over from the swings, faces glowing like a pair of storm lanterns. Knees pumping and ponytails flying, they threw themselves onto their small, blond friend in a veritable gale of affection. Faces were kissed, bottoms were patted, and gigantic hugs exchanged all round.
Words tumbled over each other in a geyser of liquid childspeak: Hi Angie we been playing over on th' swings and on th' slides and on th' bigspinnything and AlisonMiller was doing cartwheels and Tommy Norbert fell offt h' high slide and Tracy Dwight said this and Jeannie Salter said that-
And so on.
Brad caught them on the display, tinkering with the contrast to capture their delicate skin tones. Both were wearing skirts and dresses, just as Angie had predicted. He couldn't stand seeing shorts on young girls, especially ones their age. Chamberlain's Municipal School Board had a lot to answer for, with its ugly unisex dress codes. Well, no matter; it was the middle of summer, school was out, and they could dress any way they pleased.
He panned slowly down their lithe figures, taking in the lush curves, the trim, supple limbs. Both girls were extremely pretty - not quite as beautiful as Angie, in some respects - but sweet, saucy and endearingly cute all the same. Lindy was wearing a canary-yellow sun frock, the kind with a high, nipped bodice and a key-hole neckline. Jane's ensemble included a loose white top and a blue plaid skirt clipped at the waist with a big silver safety pin.
All three were standing in a conspiratorial huddle, exchanging whispers and naughty girlish snickers. Their bottoms poked out at luscious, tempting angles; Brad zoomed in to record each one in turn. Lindy's dress was so brief that it barely covered her underpants, Angie's so sheer that her pert, ripe cheeks were visible through the fabric. Jane's skirt was neither brief nor sheer, but the blue tartan was indescribably cute (Tom-and-Becky-sitting-a-tree, K-I-S-S-I-
N-G!). He couldn't wait to see what they were wearing underneath.
Well, he'd be finding out soon enough. The conspirators had almost finished their scheming; whatever they had planned, they were almost ready to begin. He could tell by the furtive glances they kept casting over their shoulders. Fingers pointed, feet shuffled and eyes twinkled as a decision was reached.
What was it going to be this time? The Indian Fort? The Fireman's Pole? The Spider's Nest?! Under normal circumstances, Brad would have laid odds on the Swings. Little girls have a scientifically documented preference for swings, he'd read about it in the Harvard Journal of Medicine. Of course, Bradley knew better on this occasion. He knew his cousin.
"OK, let's go play!!" Angie declared, practically bursting from her skin. Lindy and Jane squealed their approval, dancing back and forth in barely suppressed enthusiasm. Linking hands from left to right, the three girls spun towards the playground and tore off toward the Jungle-Gym.
PART THREE:
THE JUNGLE GYM
"Last one up has to kiss Tommy Norbert!" Lindy yelled.
Screaming with laughter, they streaked across the turf, hemlines whipping about their thighs. Angie's heart was racing in her chest; a warm, mellow glow pervaded her features. Releasing her grip on Janey's hand, she sprinted forward as fast as midnight lightning, eager to reach the bars first. Her frock molded around her girlish form, the front kicking up over her waist. She made no attempt to hold it down: shy though she was, she was completely swept away in the excitement of the moment.
The Climbing Grid was a complex iron scaffold at the center of the Fort. A tall, looming structure fully ten yards long, it was teeming with children, mostly girls from Angie's neighborhood. Close on a dozen were swinging precariously through the trellis, chortling with pleasure. The older ones wore oversized t-shirts and those awful spandex bike shorts that had grown so popular this summer.
Only a few had deigned to dress au femme that morning, but they seemed to be attracting more than their fair share of interest. A smattering of boys bolted to and fro underneath, grabbing at their heels and daring them to cross the gauntlet.
Reaching the Grid slightly ahead of her friends, Angie hauled herself up two bars at a time: two-four-six-eight-SLAP. The Jungle Gym seemed implausibly steep, a vast, rambling tower overlooking most of the Domain.
Once at the top, the three girls perched together, gazing out towards the weeping willows. Somewhere in the middle distance, Brad stood at the edge of the playing field, filming the scene in meticulous detail.
The girls swapped shy, giggly smiles, their eyes positively gleaming with anticipation. Who was going to go first? What they had in mind was so indisputably naughty they couldn't decide one way or the other. Jane and Lindy finally ganged up on their pretty blond accomplice: the whole thing had been Angie's idea, so she had to go first.
Nibbling on her lower lip, Angela dropped through the bars and made for the center of the Grid. A chill breeze seemed to flitter up her dress despite the heat of the day. In a few seconds she'd be hanging upside down with her flimsy white panties on full display! Every boy in the world was going to see what she was wearing! Worse still, she knew most of them; half the kids in her grade seemed to be scrambling 'round beneath her feet.
Looking back over her shoulder, she noticed her cousin kneeling on the grass about thirty feet away, his face masked by the camcorder. The zoom was tilted upward and the little red light was blinking. Evidently he'd moved in closer for a better shot. Angie giggled, knowing what he must have been seeing. This was all so unfair! None of it had been her idea, it had all been his! Why did she have to go first? She pendulumed back and forth beneath the bars, grinning impishly as the dress rode up to the tops of her thighs.
Brad almost fumbled the camera as Angie splayed her legs. The view was utterly heart-stopping from this angle; her silky white gusset was stretched taut between her open thighs. He fine-tuned the resolution, bringing the gauzy satin into sharp focus. The hem skipped a little higher. For one breathtaking moment he could see the tight elastic trim encircling her waist, then the frock dropped back down into place.
This was going to be good.
Angie swung nimbly across the Grid with the boys nipping playfully at her ankles (Tommy Norbert almost made off with her left shoe), dodging through the crowd with practiced ease. Pausing half way across, she threw Brad an impish glance, then kicked her feet up over her head. Hooking her knees over the bar, she slung herself upside down -
and the show began.
Thick blond tresses swept towards the ground as Angie's dress billowed inside out. Her panties went on public display; sheer white full briefs with dainty lace traceries on the front and sides. The gossamer fabric shimmered like platinum in the mid-morning sun. Angie wriggled her hips. The frock slipped another four inches down her midriff, baring her torso far as the belly-button. Half a dozen boys gawped up at the spectacle, their expressions dazed and startled.
Brad zoomed in for an extreme close-up, capturing the creamy smoothness of her thighs. Her flesh was unbelievably soft, particularly around the tummy and bottom (the latter of which was going to be spanked bright pink the moment he got her home).
He panned back to a mid-shot, scanning for her full figure (if only those damned bars weren't blocking the view) and discovered that her dress had inverted all the way down to her throat. Having no real waistline, it clung to her shoulders by nothing more than a hope and a prayer, threatening to fall off her body at the merest touch.
Returning the lens to her underwear, Brad noticed some movement off to the right and moved the camera to investigate. Lindy and Jane were clambering over to join her.
Lindy went over first.
Tilting her head back, Linda drew her knees up to her chin and slipped her feet through the rungs . Easily the oldest of the three (eleven last spring), she had reached that slim, coltish stage where her legs looked impossibly long and limber. Their length was further emphasized by the stripy black stay-ups she habitually wore. She really was one sassy little miss. If she'd been his daughter...well, best not to go there right now.
Voicing a high, giggly squeal, Lindy doubled her legs over the bar and dropped herself into position. Her short yellow sundress inverted over her head, unveiling her flimsy cotton panties in the wink of an eye. They were high-cut bikini briefs with a rather spicy floral pattern; entirely too mature for such a petite young thing.
Lindy had recently developed a preference for cheeky, feminine underwear, and appeared to be taking great pleasure in showing them off. Pawing lightly at her dress, she toggled her bottom-cheeks from side to side, bubbling over with excitement. The inside lining of her frock slid down another six inches, peeling away to her rib-cage -
And then it was Janey's turn to uncover her knickers.
Nine year old Jane Glover was a slim, lean-legged child with an alabaster complexion and red-gold hair. Normally rather demure, the thought of hanging upside down from the Jungle Gym made her head spin with embarrassment. As Brad had noted earlier, she usually wore shorts to the Playground, careful to safeguard her dignity from wandering eyes. Yet here she was, dangling from the grid in her long blue skirt with half the boys in Chamberlain looking on! The temptation had simply proven too much for her. Well, too late to back out now - her friends would never let her get away with it.
Folding sinuously from the waist, Janey swept her legs up in a graceful arc, pointing her toes at the sky. Her kilt fell away at the back, exposing her panty-clad bottom in a flutter of indigo pleats. Locking her knees into place, she released her hands and hung topsy-turvy from the bars. Tinkling, girlish laughter floated through the Playground: the front of Jane's skirt was caught between her thighs; only HALF her panties were on display! Face burning beet-red, Janey reached down and started pulling the kilt up at the sides.
Such shamelessly modest behavior couldn't go unchallenged. Lindy's hand darted out, snatching at the tartan wrap. Jane slapped it away with a shriek, then turned to fend off Angie's sneak attack. A brief struggle ensued. The hapless redhead never stood a chance, needless to say. Two sets of fingers snagged the plaid material, and the skirt was finally (and irrevocably) dislodged. All three screamed in delight as Jane's silken panties were revealed in all their glory.
Brad leaned forward and zoomed in for another close-up. Candy-bright nylon suddenly filled the LCD. Janey's full-brief undies clung to her skin like the world's mildest sunburn, glittering with iridescent highlights. A dainty pink frill encircled the waistband, intricate lace traceries adorned the hips. He tracked the digicam 'round in a wide circle, targeting her shapely thighs, her snowy white tummy. She had one of those impudent little belly buttons that poked out like a ripe raspberry.
Brad checked the camera, making sure the battery had sufficient charge. He still had to get through this morning with its Indian Forts and picnics and endless games of tag. He stood up and stepped back a couple of yards, trying for a wide-angle shot to capture the whole scene: the wrestling battalions over by the merry-go-round, the mad scuffles in the Lookout Tower. He panned across the playing field, focusing on nothing in particular, then circled back to his young cousin, still oscillating under the Grid between her little friends.
Once again, she was the cynosure, the center of attention. Seemed like every gaze in the park was directed at her. Lindy and Jane looked utterly mesmerized by her presence. Who could blame them? Angie's charms were little short of captivating. It had taken her only a matter of seconds to persuade them to bare their panties on the Jungle Gym - even Janey, who hardly ever wore skirts to the Playground.
PART FOUR
EPILOGUE
Brad re-adjusted his settings and glanced over at the Mother's circle. They were relaxing on the picnic benches, chatting idly amongst themselves and not paying much attention to anything. They were well aware of what their children were doing, but none of them seemed particularly concerned. Kids were natural exhibitionists, nothing unusual about that. Brad wouldn't be surprised if they stripped all the way down to their panties to go splashing around in the fountain later on. He'd seen Angie do it before on more than one occasion.
The videos were something of a hit with the Sole Parents community. Mary Glover and Carol Thompson were regular customers, putting in orders for edited tapes on an almost weekly basis (Brad and Angie spent much of their free time sorting through the rough footage looking for the most 'artistic' angles - Angie had an intuitive grasp of film composition and understood the technical processes far better than he ever would).
Brad supposed he could understand that. These women had struggled through broken marriages, social rejection and outright prejudice; all they had left now were their children. If the girls could experience a few more years of simple happiness, it would all be worthwhile. Maybe that was the only thing that truly mattered.
"Can I put in my order now?"
Brad turned to see Carol Thompson - Lindy's mom - standing beside him.
"Sure," he replied, focusing the camera for another long shot, "we'll have it ready for you by next Wednesday."
"Mary said she'd like a copy too."
"We can do that. Angie's a wizard with the film-editing software."
"They all are," Carol remarked with a slight rolling of the eyes, "I still have trouble programming the remote, but Lindy's been writing her own computer games since she was seven."
They looked at each other for a moment, sensing the irony in her casual observation. 'Since she was seven.' How old did she look now? How old did any of them look now?
"Maybe you'd better call them in," Carol said, placing a light hand on his shoulder, "nearly time for lunch."
"OK," he nodded, clicking the lens cap back into position, "may take me a minute or two to chase them over." He handed the camcorder over to Carol, knowing what 'chasing them in' would most likely involve.
"Don't worry, you've got it covered. We trust you."
Yes: they trusted him. Everyone in the group trusted him. They knew that he kept his hands to himself and was completely devoted to Angie: two extremely rare qualities in any man, at least from their perspective. They were even prepared to let him share in the child-minding roster. Deborah Lambert had broached on the subject a few times, asking if he'd like to register for the babysitter's exchange. From what Brad could gather, most of them would probably have sold their souls for a night out on the town, free from the domestic grindstone.
"Angie!" he called out, raising his hands to his mouth to form a megaphone, "time to take a break."
The three girls stared back at him for several seconds before Angie gave the inevitable reply:
"No! I don't wanna!"
"Now, Angie. Lunch time."
"No! I don't wanna and you can't make me!"
Bradley grinned: oh, can't I now?
"Do you want that SPANKING I promised you?"
Pause. Two seconds. Five seconds. Then:
"Yes!" Angie called.
Bradley instantly broke into a long, rolling sprint, rushing towards the Jungle Gym at break-neck speed. All three girls shrieked at the top of their lungs and plunged off the grid in a tangle of flying skirts. As Angie had noted earlier, the only thing better than being chased was being caught, and evidently, she wasn't the only girl in the park that day who happened to agree.
All three fled for their lives towards the picnic tables, screaming in mock terror as if the devil himself was at their heels - one which, for the moment at least, seemed very likely to catch them.
Overhead, a perfect summer's day beamed down from a faultlessly blue sky.
The End
LINDY & JANE
Rounding a long, sloping bend, they emerged on the far side of the Fountain and were immediately engulfed in a drove of stampeding children. They surged past in a rush of knees and elbows, almost dragging Angie off in the deluge.
Brad steered a course through the human tide, navigating towards the picnic benches beneath the weeping willows. Four or five regulars from Sole Parents were reclining in the shade, sipping fruit juice and trading the week's gossip. Two of them waved in Brad's direction, beckoning him forward.
Four of the usual suspects were present; Mary Glover and Deborah Lambert from the Westside, Carol Thompson from Newtown Playgroup. Cathy Everett sat to one side, keeping watch on the kids. The Rituals of Greeting were observed, the obligatory wisecracks made. The whole process lasted around a minute, then Brad was planted comfortably in the center of the group, basking in their good-natured acceptance. He'd grown quite popular over the past few months, being one of the Society's few resident males.
However, it was Angie who was the definitive center of attention. Kisses were lavished on her freckly cheeks; teasing fingers skittered over her neck and shoulders. Angela squealed with pleasure, lapping up the attention, then ran over to hide behind her cousin, blushing to the roots of her hair.
Brad nodded along in casual satisfaction. None of it was empty flattery, his cousin was an unusually pretty little girl. He'd noticed that young, single mothers were particularly susceptible to her huge, liquid eyes and baby-soft features. Any one of them would have been happy to pack her up and take her home for the weekend.
"You want a soda, honey?" Deborah Lambert offered, trying to coax her out from Bradley's shadow. Angie wasn't budging (she knew full well that Debbie only wanted to snatch her up and gobble her tummy), but her smile melted every heart within visual range. Brad checked the settings on his camcorder while the drink was poured, glancing out towards the Playground.
The Indian Fort was swarming with sun-dappled figures, clambering over the rope bridge and body surfing down the high-slide. A small party of boys congregated at the bottom of the monkey bars, yelling taunts out to the girls and making half-hearted attempts to chase them around the teeter-totters. Business as usual, in other words. Brad raised the digicam and clicked on the power.
"There you go, sweet-heart," Debbie said, handing over a cup of garishly bright orange sludge. Angie stepped tentatively forward, reaching out for the saccharine horror.
"What do you say?" Brad prompted without looking up.
"Thank you," she trilled in her fluting soprano, then retreated before those girl-snatching hands could descend on her. This was, in fact, a much beloved game, one she'd played countless times before. Deborah Lambert was a world class tummy-gobbler; half the fun was evading her clutches until the end of the picnic.
Angie stepped back behind her protector, placing a hand on his shoulder while she solemnly emptied her cup. Brad finished his preparations and slid the LCD into position, tracking slowly across the playing field.
Just at that moment, Angie heard her name being called in high, keening tones. Everyone turned towards the Playground, grinning at the source of the disturbance. Two little girls were approaching at breakneck speed, their voices overlapping with exhilaration. Abandoning her cousin without a second's hesitation, Angie ran out to meet them, her hair whipping out in albino streamers.
Lindy Thompson and Janey Glover came racing over from the swings, faces glowing like a pair of storm lanterns. Knees pumping and ponytails flying, they threw themselves onto their small, blond friend in a veritable gale of affection. Faces were kissed, bottoms were patted, and gigantic hugs exchanged all round.
Words tumbled over each other in a geyser of liquid childspeak: Hi Angie we been playing over on th' swings and on th' slides and on th' bigspinnything and AlisonMiller was doing cartwheels and Tommy Norbert fell offt h' high slide and Tracy Dwight said this and Jeannie Salter said that-
And so on.
Brad caught them on the display, tinkering with the contrast to capture their delicate skin tones. Both were wearing skirts and dresses, just as Angie had predicted. He couldn't stand seeing shorts on young girls, especially ones their age. Chamberlain's Municipal School Board had a lot to answer for, with its ugly unisex dress codes. Well, no matter; it was the middle of summer, school was out, and they could dress any way they pleased.
He panned slowly down their lithe figures, taking in the lush curves, the trim, supple limbs. Both girls were extremely pretty - not quite as beautiful as Angie, in some respects - but sweet, saucy and endearingly cute all the same. Lindy was wearing a canary-yellow sun frock, the kind with a high, nipped bodice and a key-hole neckline. Jane's ensemble included a loose white top and a blue plaid skirt clipped at the waist with a big silver safety pin.
All three were standing in a conspiratorial huddle, exchanging whispers and naughty girlish snickers. Their bottoms poked out at luscious, tempting angles; Brad zoomed in to record each one in turn. Lindy's dress was so brief that it barely covered her underpants, Angie's so sheer that her pert, ripe cheeks were visible through the fabric. Jane's skirt was neither brief nor sheer, but the blue tartan was indescribably cute (Tom-and-Becky-sitting-a-tree, K-I-S-S-I-
N-G!). He couldn't wait to see what they were wearing underneath.
Well, he'd be finding out soon enough. The conspirators had almost finished their scheming; whatever they had planned, they were almost ready to begin. He could tell by the furtive glances they kept casting over their shoulders. Fingers pointed, feet shuffled and eyes twinkled as a decision was reached.
What was it going to be this time? The Indian Fort? The Fireman's Pole? The Spider's Nest?! Under normal circumstances, Brad would have laid odds on the Swings. Little girls have a scientifically documented preference for swings, he'd read about it in the Harvard Journal of Medicine. Of course, Bradley knew better on this occasion. He knew his cousin.
"OK, let's go play!!" Angie declared, practically bursting from her skin. Lindy and Jane squealed their approval, dancing back and forth in barely suppressed enthusiasm. Linking hands from left to right, the three girls spun towards the playground and tore off toward the Jungle-Gym.
PART THREE:
THE JUNGLE GYM
"Last one up has to kiss Tommy Norbert!" Lindy yelled.
Screaming with laughter, they streaked across the turf, hemlines whipping about their thighs. Angie's heart was racing in her chest; a warm, mellow glow pervaded her features. Releasing her grip on Janey's hand, she sprinted forward as fast as midnight lightning, eager to reach the bars first. Her frock molded around her girlish form, the front kicking up over her waist. She made no attempt to hold it down: shy though she was, she was completely swept away in the excitement of the moment.
The Climbing Grid was a complex iron scaffold at the center of the Fort. A tall, looming structure fully ten yards long, it was teeming with children, mostly girls from Angie's neighborhood. Close on a dozen were swinging precariously through the trellis, chortling with pleasure. The older ones wore oversized t-shirts and those awful spandex bike shorts that had grown so popular this summer.
Only a few had deigned to dress au femme that morning, but they seemed to be attracting more than their fair share of interest. A smattering of boys bolted to and fro underneath, grabbing at their heels and daring them to cross the gauntlet.
Reaching the Grid slightly ahead of her friends, Angie hauled herself up two bars at a time: two-four-six-eight-SLAP. The Jungle Gym seemed implausibly steep, a vast, rambling tower overlooking most of the Domain.
Once at the top, the three girls perched together, gazing out towards the weeping willows. Somewhere in the middle distance, Brad stood at the edge of the playing field, filming the scene in meticulous detail.
The girls swapped shy, giggly smiles, their eyes positively gleaming with anticipation. Who was going to go first? What they had in mind was so indisputably naughty they couldn't decide one way or the other. Jane and Lindy finally ganged up on their pretty blond accomplice: the whole thing had been Angie's idea, so she had to go first.
Nibbling on her lower lip, Angela dropped through the bars and made for the center of the Grid. A chill breeze seemed to flitter up her dress despite the heat of the day. In a few seconds she'd be hanging upside down with her flimsy white panties on full display! Every boy in the world was going to see what she was wearing! Worse still, she knew most of them; half the kids in her grade seemed to be scrambling 'round beneath her feet.
Looking back over her shoulder, she noticed her cousin kneeling on the grass about thirty feet away, his face masked by the camcorder. The zoom was tilted upward and the little red light was blinking. Evidently he'd moved in closer for a better shot. Angie giggled, knowing what he must have been seeing. This was all so unfair! None of it had been her idea, it had all been his! Why did she have to go first? She pendulumed back and forth beneath the bars, grinning impishly as the dress rode up to the tops of her thighs.
Brad almost fumbled the camera as Angie splayed her legs. The view was utterly heart-stopping from this angle; her silky white gusset was stretched taut between her open thighs. He fine-tuned the resolution, bringing the gauzy satin into sharp focus. The hem skipped a little higher. For one breathtaking moment he could see the tight elastic trim encircling her waist, then the frock dropped back down into place.
This was going to be good.
Angie swung nimbly across the Grid with the boys nipping playfully at her ankles (Tommy Norbert almost made off with her left shoe), dodging through the crowd with practiced ease. Pausing half way across, she threw Brad an impish glance, then kicked her feet up over her head. Hooking her knees over the bar, she slung herself upside down -
and the show began.
Thick blond tresses swept towards the ground as Angie's dress billowed inside out. Her panties went on public display; sheer white full briefs with dainty lace traceries on the front and sides. The gossamer fabric shimmered like platinum in the mid-morning sun. Angie wriggled her hips. The frock slipped another four inches down her midriff, baring her torso far as the belly-button. Half a dozen boys gawped up at the spectacle, their expressions dazed and startled.
Brad zoomed in for an extreme close-up, capturing the creamy smoothness of her thighs. Her flesh was unbelievably soft, particularly around the tummy and bottom (the latter of which was going to be spanked bright pink the moment he got her home).
He panned back to a mid-shot, scanning for her full figure (if only those damned bars weren't blocking the view) and discovered that her dress had inverted all the way down to her throat. Having no real waistline, it clung to her shoulders by nothing more than a hope and a prayer, threatening to fall off her body at the merest touch.
Returning the lens to her underwear, Brad noticed some movement off to the right and moved the camera to investigate. Lindy and Jane were clambering over to join her.
Lindy went over first.
Tilting her head back, Linda drew her knees up to her chin and slipped her feet through the rungs . Easily the oldest of the three (eleven last spring), she had reached that slim, coltish stage where her legs looked impossibly long and limber. Their length was further emphasized by the stripy black stay-ups she habitually wore. She really was one sassy little miss. If she'd been his daughter...well, best not to go there right now.
Voicing a high, giggly squeal, Lindy doubled her legs over the bar and dropped herself into position. Her short yellow sundress inverted over her head, unveiling her flimsy cotton panties in the wink of an eye. They were high-cut bikini briefs with a rather spicy floral pattern; entirely too mature for such a petite young thing.
Lindy had recently developed a preference for cheeky, feminine underwear, and appeared to be taking great pleasure in showing them off. Pawing lightly at her dress, she toggled her bottom-cheeks from side to side, bubbling over with excitement. The inside lining of her frock slid down another six inches, peeling away to her rib-cage -
And then it was Janey's turn to uncover her knickers.
Nine year old Jane Glover was a slim, lean-legged child with an alabaster complexion and red-gold hair. Normally rather demure, the thought of hanging upside down from the Jungle Gym made her head spin with embarrassment. As Brad had noted earlier, she usually wore shorts to the Playground, careful to safeguard her dignity from wandering eyes. Yet here she was, dangling from the grid in her long blue skirt with half the boys in Chamberlain looking on! The temptation had simply proven too much for her. Well, too late to back out now - her friends would never let her get away with it.
Folding sinuously from the waist, Janey swept her legs up in a graceful arc, pointing her toes at the sky. Her kilt fell away at the back, exposing her panty-clad bottom in a flutter of indigo pleats. Locking her knees into place, she released her hands and hung topsy-turvy from the bars. Tinkling, girlish laughter floated through the Playground: the front of Jane's skirt was caught between her thighs; only HALF her panties were on display! Face burning beet-red, Janey reached down and started pulling the kilt up at the sides.
Such shamelessly modest behavior couldn't go unchallenged. Lindy's hand darted out, snatching at the tartan wrap. Jane slapped it away with a shriek, then turned to fend off Angie's sneak attack. A brief struggle ensued. The hapless redhead never stood a chance, needless to say. Two sets of fingers snagged the plaid material, and the skirt was finally (and irrevocably) dislodged. All three screamed in delight as Jane's silken panties were revealed in all their glory.
Brad leaned forward and zoomed in for another close-up. Candy-bright nylon suddenly filled the LCD. Janey's full-brief undies clung to her skin like the world's mildest sunburn, glittering with iridescent highlights. A dainty pink frill encircled the waistband, intricate lace traceries adorned the hips. He tracked the digicam 'round in a wide circle, targeting her shapely thighs, her snowy white tummy. She had one of those impudent little belly buttons that poked out like a ripe raspberry.
Brad checked the camera, making sure the battery had sufficient charge. He still had to get through this morning with its Indian Forts and picnics and endless games of tag. He stood up and stepped back a couple of yards, trying for a wide-angle shot to capture the whole scene: the wrestling battalions over by the merry-go-round, the mad scuffles in the Lookout Tower. He panned across the playing field, focusing on nothing in particular, then circled back to his young cousin, still oscillating under the Grid between her little friends.
Once again, she was the cynosure, the center of attention. Seemed like every gaze in the park was directed at her. Lindy and Jane looked utterly mesmerized by her presence. Who could blame them? Angie's charms were little short of captivating. It had taken her only a matter of seconds to persuade them to bare their panties on the Jungle Gym - even Janey, who hardly ever wore skirts to the Playground.
PART FOUR
EPILOGUE
Brad re-adjusted his settings and glanced over at the Mother's circle. They were relaxing on the picnic benches, chatting idly amongst themselves and not paying much attention to anything. They were well aware of what their children were doing, but none of them seemed particularly concerned. Kids were natural exhibitionists, nothing unusual about that. Brad wouldn't be surprised if they stripped all the way down to their panties to go splashing around in the fountain later on. He'd seen Angie do it before on more than one occasion.
The videos were something of a hit with the Sole Parents community. Mary Glover and Carol Thompson were regular customers, putting in orders for edited tapes on an almost weekly basis (Brad and Angie spent much of their free time sorting through the rough footage looking for the most 'artistic' angles - Angie had an intuitive grasp of film composition and understood the technical processes far better than he ever would).
Brad supposed he could understand that. These women had struggled through broken marriages, social rejection and outright prejudice; all they had left now were their children. If the girls could experience a few more years of simple happiness, it would all be worthwhile. Maybe that was the only thing that truly mattered.
"Can I put in my order now?"
Brad turned to see Carol Thompson - Lindy's mom - standing beside him.
"Sure," he replied, focusing the camera for another long shot, "we'll have it ready for you by next Wednesday."
"Mary said she'd like a copy too."
"We can do that. Angie's a wizard with the film-editing software."
"They all are," Carol remarked with a slight rolling of the eyes, "I still have trouble programming the remote, but Lindy's been writing her own computer games since she was seven."
They looked at each other for a moment, sensing the irony in her casual observation. 'Since she was seven.' How old did she look now? How old did any of them look now?
"Maybe you'd better call them in," Carol said, placing a light hand on his shoulder, "nearly time for lunch."
"OK," he nodded, clicking the lens cap back into position, "may take me a minute or two to chase them over." He handed the camcorder over to Carol, knowing what 'chasing them in' would most likely involve.
"Don't worry, you've got it covered. We trust you."
Yes: they trusted him. Everyone in the group trusted him. They knew that he kept his hands to himself and was completely devoted to Angie: two extremely rare qualities in any man, at least from their perspective. They were even prepared to let him share in the child-minding roster. Deborah Lambert had broached on the subject a few times, asking if he'd like to register for the babysitter's exchange. From what Brad could gather, most of them would probably have sold their souls for a night out on the town, free from the domestic grindstone.
"Angie!" he called out, raising his hands to his mouth to form a megaphone, "time to take a break."
The three girls stared back at him for several seconds before Angie gave the inevitable reply:
"No! I don't wanna!"
"Now, Angie. Lunch time."
"No! I don't wanna and you can't make me!"
Bradley grinned: oh, can't I now?
"Do you want that SPANKING I promised you?"
Pause. Two seconds. Five seconds. Then:
"Yes!" Angie called.
Bradley instantly broke into a long, rolling sprint, rushing towards the Jungle Gym at break-neck speed. All three girls shrieked at the top of their lungs and plunged off the grid in a tangle of flying skirts. As Angie had noted earlier, the only thing better than being chased was being caught, and evidently, she wasn't the only girl in the park that day who happened to agree.
All three fled for their lives towards the picnic tables, screaming in mock terror as if the devil himself was at their heels - one which, for the moment at least, seemed very likely to catch them.
Overhead, a perfect summer's day beamed down from a faultlessly blue sky.
