Jenny's Really Bad Day
How simple
it would have been to just give in. He wanted her to, and she wanted to
herself. But there was that fire in her belly that took more than simple
giving-in to squelch.
The day was
horribly hot, a pre-summer May, sweltering and unbreathable.
She walked home from the bus stop in a funk, unhappy because everything had
gone wrong that could go wrong. And now she was more miserable than ever. Her
clothes were hot, the sun was hot, her hair was hot
with the sun's desperate heat beating down on her head. Everything had gone
wrong that could go wrong.
Branson, the
bastard hated her presentation that she'd worked hours to prefect-yes, it was
unique, but he just didn't understand her artistic vision; then best friend, Liv, spilled cappuccino on the brand new $90 lime green
dress; and Hilary, her hairdresser, screwed up her last haircut and perm until
it was now a frizzy mess.
She was in
funk. But worse yet, she let Jordan down, failing to show for their morning
coffee date, which he demanded, just because he knew she needed a little
settling before she went into an important meeting. Perhaps that was the
beginning of her bad day. Perhaps if she'd not failed to keep that appointment,
her day would have worked out better. Perhaps.
Her body
felt as if it had been beaten with clubs, ravaged by hungry wolves, her psyche
torn apart by those who would never understand her, least of all Jordan-the
perfect-who did everything in his life right, she sarcastically mused. Same
time, she had to believe in Jordan, he, more than any one
could put her back together after a horrible day like this one.
A half hour later, after dragging her weary ass in off
street, she lay over Jordan's lap, his fist, ladened
with a kitchen spoon, poised above her naked ass.
Smack!
Ah! What
pain!
Smack!
The second
blow landed like the first, right on the middle of a plump ass cheek.
It had taken
one hell of an argument to get her there; he'd been so patient at first. Kind. Almost loving. Yes, it was loving, the way he affectionately tried to nurture her
with kindness. But she wouldn't be nurtured. No. Not today. Never! She pulled
out of his loving arms in a huff, too angry with herself to be loved.
She wanted
confrontation, conflagration, incineration...heat, anger, righteous indignation,
her pissed-offedness venting out in a hiss of crude,
nasty language, meant for the world, life, humanity, every last fucking soul,
good or bad. The world was her obstacle, her foe, her vague, inconstant enemy.
Unfortunately, Jenny vented it all, everything, every last nasty
invective toward the one man who loved and understood her, the one sole human
being who might have been an exception to her broad-sweeping judgment of the whole
of humankind.
"I'm a
miserable designer!" she shouted in desperation. "I know nothing! I never will!
They hate me! They hate my work! I'm quitting tomorrow, if they don't fire me
first." She thought a moment. No. They won't fire me-I'm putting in my
resignation! That was after she had Jordan's attention by throwing everything
she was holding in her arms-purse, coat, briefcase, not to mention the
spear-like golf umbrella she'd needed in the morning to save her hair from a
sudden thunderstorm. "I'll quit, I swear I will!"
She stomped
around the apartment pissed off, watching, waiting for Jordan to say something,
anything to stop her.
And sure
enough, he did, once he'd finally heard it all. He'd had enough.
So calm, so cool. "My,
you're certainly asking for it, Jen," was all he had to say to set her off
again.
"Oh, you
think you know what I need!" she came right back at him.
"Hey, I don't
know anything about what you need, but I sure as hell know what you're going to
get," he said.
He yanked
her hard, really hard, mainly because she was trying to scoot right past him
and lock herself in the bathroom.
With his
hand firmly around her arm, her heart started to pound. Adrenalin rushed her
body like a hot wind. Before she could wrench from his grasp, he'd upended her
over his lap. Damn! He was fast!
She was
close to him now, against his middle, over his lap, her crotch right up next to
his, and his was hot, venting sexual rage and her unhappiness, and somehow, in
the middle of all that, a good deal of love.
The spoon
came down across her bottom, hard, again and again and again, the damn thing
burning like the fiery flames of hell itself. More, another and another, hot,
hellish damnable, detestable, but necessary...just to get her out of the
self-pitying gloom.
He didn't
say a word, just kept on hitting again and again until she was screaming,
crying, raging, banging her fists against his legs and her feet against the
nothingness behind her, all the while looking as if she were dogpaddling in
mid-air. Over and over her words of exclamation, "Stop it, you fucking ass!"
until she was hoarse.
Again,
harder and harder he hit, until she suddenly realized dazedly that it wasn't
the spoon anymore but just his hand, his flesh, spanking her old-fashioned
style, as if she were a really bratty kid.
Was that
what she was? She thought that for one brief second.
He was
exhausted and she was exhausted, when he finally stopped. But she was calmer. Much calmer. Spanked. Ass hot, body
sweltering.
And with Jordan's
hand dropping between her thighs, and her thighs opening hungrily, and her inner
self purring, she found heaven on earth again. To hell with
the miserable world when she had this heaven. Yes, now this was heaven. Heaven.
Amen.
They'd take
it to bed. Minutes would pass in their clench. Their lips would lock; their hands
would explore; his body would penetrate and hers would not resist.
At the
finish, she'd come, he'd come, and they'd both pass
out, exhaustion a good thing now until she said to him in a voice as sweet as a
sorry child:
"I'm sorry, hon, it
was a really bad day."
