18-year-old Chris was bored. Outside the rain beat down on the sloppy looking snow, melting it all away one flake at a time. The snowman he had made a few days ago looked like a forgotten science experiment. The head had fallen an hour ago, the body was listing to the left, only a shovel held it up. Of course, the whole thing was shrunken and pitted now. Chris thought of people who collected shrunken heads and wondered if anyone ever collected shrunken snowmen. Keeping them would require serious planning. Some sort of a freezer that wouldn't dry them out, he decided.
"Chris, did you get out there and shovel the path yet?" His Governess called from the den where she was working on his computer.
"It's raining. I don't want to go out." He called back.
"Too bad. Get dressed and get started. You wouldn't want anyone to slip on the path. I just heard it is going to get a lot colder this afternoon. All that rain will be ice by then. You need to clean it up now and put down some salt too."
"OK. I'm going," Chris called back and forced himself to stand. "Any chance you will come out there and help me?"
"You know I can't play today. I have to write and email this article to Kelly before she takes her zine to the printers." His Governess came out from the den and spoke to him in a softer voice. "We can do something together later. Besides, I don't want my little Chris to be out there in the freezing rain. That's why I'm tossing you out there now." She laughed as she helped Chris get his coat on.
Chris playfully rolled his eyes and groaned, "Yes Lady, you are so good to me Lady."
She laughed, smacking his bottom as he passed her on his way outdoors. "Make sure you don't miss any spots and don't forget the salt. Don't make me have to discipline you little man."
"Yes Governess," Chris said in a mournful tone.
He made sure to close the door on her laughing face, winking just before he disappeared on the other side of it. She would probably make coffee now and enjoy it while he was out shivering in the cold. Chris's self pity didn't last long. Being out in the snow, shoveling the mountains of white stuff still felt like man's work. Let the little woman stay warm and sheltered inside. He stole the shovel away from the snowman and watched it collapse. The whole snowman just flopped down like a sack of cooked noodles. After giving it a few good kicks, Chris was ready to shovel.
The wet snow was heavy. Yet, it scooped up easily, not leaving an icy clump behind to be chipped at. When the walk was clear Chris felt surprised to be reluctant to go back indoors. He decided to make snow angels for a little while. By the time his Governess poked her head out the door and called to him to come in there were four angels on the lawn.
"Come inside, Chris. You are too wet to play outside any more," she said, calling to him from just inside the door, trying to keep the heat from leaking out.
"Yes Lady." Chris promised, smiling.
Governess went back inside and Chris shook off some snow. He was beginning to feel pretty water logged now that he wasn't busy. At the door he stomped snow off his boots and shook more from his hat and scarf. Inside, he left his wet boots on the mat and peeled off the rest of the wet things.
"Take off everything." Governess called from the bathroom where Chris could hear her already starting the water.
Chris stripped down and carried all his wet clothes into the laundry. He hung the scarf and gloves up to dry and put the pants and other clothes into the machine. His coat he left hanging near the heater. After adding the soap, he joined his Governess in the bathroom. He almost turned around and ran when he saw her wearing the dreaded rubber dishwashing gloves.
"Not those! I really hate those!" Chris said, eyeing the gloves, cringing at just the thought of them.
"Shhh, little man. I want to make sure you don't dawdle. I am very busy this afternoon." Governess said.
"I promise not to dawdle, please don't use those gloves. I hate the way the rubber feels on my skin." Chris tried a winning smile on his Governess, anything that would spare him those horrible gloves!
"Hmmm, well I guess I could do without them. However, you will have to be a very good boy. No fussing and no grumbling while I work. Now get into the tub, step lively!" She gave his ear lobe a yank and led him into the tub. "Sit down and I will start lathering you." Chris was very glad to see her pulling off the gloves. He made a note to himself to hide them away in a better spot this time.
Chris sat in the tub obediently, enjoying his Governess' hands on his body. As she soaped him up she kneaded his muscles and teased him by scraping her fingernails lightly over his back and a few tender, sensitive areas. Soon Chris was feeling sensitive all over. Just as he began to squirm, she dumped a bucket of cool water over his head.
"Time for your shampoo!" she giggled.
Chris was still getting his breathing back to something approaching normal when she began shampooing. Her fingers stroked through his hair, caressing him. He tried not to slip back into the mood of relaxation, not sure what else she might do. However, her fingers soon had their way with him. The gentle stroking around his ear and the firmer strokes at the back of his neck made him putty in her hands. This time the bucket had warmer water and Chris almost didn't notice it at all.
She moved down his body, washing his neck, shoulders, arms, chest, back and moving down to his belly, teasing his rising cock. There she stopped, leaving him aching for more while she washed his face. She washed every bit of his face like a mother checking over a dirty little boy.
"I don't think you have been washing behind your ears little man." She said, using the wash cloth to scrub behind his ears. "Wouldn't surprise me to find some tinsel from the Christmas tree back here." She laughed softly.
Chris said nothing. Sometimes he just liked to enjoy his Governess' attentions. This was his time to let go, sit back and enjoy the ride. He didn't have to make big decisions, he didn't have to do things he really didn't like and he didn't have to pretend to feel things he wasn't feeling. His Governess was in control. Whatever ride she decided to take him on he could depend on her to give him a few twists and sharp turns but at the end of the ride he would be well satisfied.
Chris leaned back, giving her better access, as she washed his lower belly. He could hear her breathing quicken, nearly in time with his own. Her fingers circled his cock, washing it. The cloth moving up and down his shaft, brushing his balls on each down ward stroke. With the other hand, she pushed him farther back, to rest his head on the back of the tub. She gently eased his legs apart, leaving his cock hard and aching while she washed his thighs. For a moment, Chris thought to tell her she was dawdling but he kept quiet.
