Emma and Julie were best friends, both nineteen-years-old, and for the next month would be living together at Emma's house because both sets of parents were away on business. Unknown to their parents, the girls were already girlfriends who kissed and cuddled and gave each other finger and tongue sex.
Of the two of them, Emma was more submissive, and she happily bowed to Julie whenever decisions had to be made, such as which friends to see, where to go for a drink, or to eat, or even which TV programmes to watch. At least she mostly did, but sometimes acted like a brat and argued with Julie.
Living together for the first time highlighted some of the differences between the two girls. Julie liked a clean and well-kept house whilst Emma happily accepted that those things were for her mum to deal with. What that meant was that Emma happily left her clothes strewn around the bedroom, or the dinner things not washed up and put away, whilst Julie was the opposite.
Julie knew it wasn't so unusual in relationships to have two different personalities such as she had with Emma, and that didn't make her love her any less. In fact, she even started to have maternal feelings for Emma looking after her as though she was her daughter. However, as the days went by, she started to think of Emma as her naughty daughter as well. So much so, that she also started to think that if things didn't change, it could have a horrible impact on their relationship.
Emma knew she was difficult to live with, and now she was living with Julie she knew she would be seeing her shortcomings even more easily and was worried about the effect that might have.
One evening they were sitting at home having a drink or two, both in vest tops and cotton shorts as it was a warm evening, their long hair flowing over their bare shoulders, when they both led the conversation towards their personality differences, and Emma was the one to admit, "Sometimes I think if things had been different, I may have turned out more like you."
Julie was pleased Emma made that point and took it as the start of a discussion to iron out those differences, at least to make living together better than it was now, and asked, "What do you mean by that, Emma?"
Emma blushed as she replied, "Well, I know that I can be lazy as well as argumentative, and that I get you annoyed sometimes. I am sure I would have been different if I had had an incentive to be more responsible and accepting of others decisions and would have turned out being a better person by now."
Julie had to agree that Emma did get her annoyed with her sometimes brattish behaviour, but knew her well enough to know that she was now trying to tell her something that she couldn't easily express, so she pressed her by asking, "What kind of incentive are you talking about, Emma?"
Emma clearly wasn't ready to be too precise, and replied, "Well, I suppose similar to what would happen if I was naughty and had a strict mother."
Julie thought that if she was reading Emma correctly, both her words and her body language, she wanted to whether Emma was actually asking her to act as her strict mother. If she was, it would mean that her nineteen-year-old girlfriend was asking to be disciplined. Could that be the case? In order to find out she pressed Emma about it even harder with, "Come on, Emma, spell it out, what kind of incentive would you have wanted a strict mum to have given you? Do you mean being grounded, or something more severe?"
Emma was still blushing as she said, "Yes, Julie, something more severe. Like a spanking, because I think that if I had been spanked, I would be a very different person."
Emma then gave a nervous laugh, which Julie knew meant that Emma actually did think being spanked would have helped her. Now she was wondering if Emma was thinking it wasn't too late to be spanked now.
Julie replied, "Well, I'm not sure I want you to be a very different person, but I can see how giving you a spanking could get rid of some of your worst shortcomings. Are you asking me to be the strict mother now, and spank you when you are too lazy or argumentative?"
Emma blushed but knew she had been steering the conversation exactly that way, and replied, still blushing, "I think so because I don't want to lose you as a girlfriend, so I think I do need to make the changes to grow up more."
Julie did love Emma and so supposed if spanking was kept between the two of them maybe it would help as she knew that Emma could be so frustrating at times. Deciding she would go along with it, she asked, "So, you think me spanking you would do it?"
The drink was certainly helping Emma offload things that she had wanted to say to Julie for quite a while and so now explained, "Well actually, I tried spanking myself."
Julie asked in a surprised tone and with a smile, "How did you do that?"
Emma was now more comfortable explaining and replied, "Not very well actually. I would take off my skirt and knickers, stand in front of a mirror, and smack my bottom. It stung, but not very much, but I couldn't bring myself to do it many times either. That's when I thought about a spatula."
Julie was intrigued but still surprised as she replied, "Ouch, I bet that hurt rather more."
Emma nodded, and replied, "Yes, it did, but I still couldn't spank myself more than two three times when I stopped after each spank, until I came up with a better technique. What I did, was say to myself I need to land a total of twenty spanks with ten on each cheek, and I then did that without stopping at all, and as much as my bottom did sting, I kept going until I had counted out the full twenty." Emma smiled at Julie wondering what her view was on that.
Julie smiled and said, "If it worked, then that's a winner."
Emma was happy with Julie's reply and then made the suggestion she wanted to make when the conversation started. "The fact is though, whilst it was far better spanking with the spatula than with my hand, and, in a way, it was still a good reminder because my bottom would sting for a little while, I am pretty sure it didn't sting anywhere near as much as it would if someone else were to spank me with the same spatula."
Julie could see that Emma was looking at her with almost a pleading look, making it pretty clear that she wanted her to use that spatula on her bottom. Well, they were friends, very good friends, and lovers, and so she didn't see any reason why she shouldn't do what her friend wanted and give her a spanking. Reckoning that was the case, she asked, "I take it you would want a proper spanking, and not just a light one?"
Emma replied earnestly, "I definitely would, Julie. I really do want to know what it is like to be spanked to such an extent that I am crying, properly, uncontrollably, and still you would spank me some more. I want to know whether that would change my attitude, but I think it would."
Julie replied, "Well, I can do that for you. So why don't you bring me the spatula, get your shorts and knickers off, and get across my lap for a proper spanking."
Julie gave Emma a testing look as she wasn't sure that it wasn't any more than wishful thinking by Emma.
However, Emma almost jumped up and said, "Straight away, Julie."
With that, Emma went quickly out of the room, and upstairs, and Julie could hear her rummaging around in the bedroom cupboard. Then she heard Emma coming back downstairs and when she had she came dashing into the room and held out a thick wooden spatula like the one they used in the kitchen.
Emma was looking eagerly at Julie, hoping that she hadn't changed her mind.
Julie could see that Emma was really up for this and took hold of the spatula. She was already sitting on a dining room chair which she shuffled around so it faced into the room, and instructed, "Take those shorts and knickers off."
Emma immediately did as she was told and undid her shorts and pushed them down towards her ankles, catching her knickers on the way, pushed both items of clothing to the floor, stepped out of them, scooped them up, and threw them onto the sofa.
