Chapter 07
Her daughter takes over
On Tuesday afternoon Janice came home feeling very happy with herself. An offer of a permanent position with the advertising agency had been received, and she was bouncing with joy! There was no way she could return to high school, to complete the year, and sit the dreaded exams. Especially now a lucrative job was on offer.
Janice needed her step-mother to continue taking her place in school. It helped that Rose wasn't too keen on returning to a boring accountancy job, so working on that angle might swing it. Janice was determined to find a way to get Rose to maintain her place in school for just for awhile longer.
Janice went into her mother's room and gathered up the teen clothes she'd bought for her mom. Placing the clothes in appropriate bags, she was ready to return them. It had been fun dressing her mother up in young teen fashions, to see her squirm with embarrassment. Though now it was important to make her feel comfortable in the schoolgirl role.
They had a quick snack, before going shopping. Rose was talking excitedly about fashions, makeup, and friends in class. Janice was excited too, though she couldn't talk about the job offer just yet.
'A man I met the other night, Charley, well, he works at the agency,' Janice casually mentioned.
'Oh no! Was it embarrassing?' Rose asked her daughter.
'No, it was nice. We had a good chat about, well nothing much,' Janice mused.
'Was he the guy you danced with,' Rose asked.
'How did you know about that?' Janice asked.
'I heard Sylvia talking about it with the babysitter. He's a bit old for you, isn't he. You had a good time by what they said,' Rose laughed.
'I did. He's nice. I'm old enough as far as he's concerned,' Janice lamely said.
'Old enough for what,' Rose teased.
'Whatever I want. I'm in charge here so don't forget it, girl,' Janice teased her back.
'Is he taking you out again?' Rose mischievously asked.
'Yes! We're going out Saturday,' Janice said, looking very pleased.
'I'm glad for you. So, if you're going out on a date, can I?' Rose asked.
'Not with the twins!' Janice warned.
'No! Don't remind me, like, that was so bad. I can't, like, believe I did that, yea!' Rose grimaced.
'Who then, a boy from school?' Janice asked her mother.
'Yes, you know him, he was around here last week. Paul, he's my boyfriend, remember? We went out on a date,' Rose reminded her.
'Yes, I remember. You went to see a Disney film, for under thirteen's,' Janice teased.
'It was all we could get in to see, yea! Like, mom, it was your fault, you made me wear that skimpy skirt and top. The way you did my makeup, I was lucky to get into a thirteen movie,' Rose complained.
'Paul liked it, he said you looked cute,' Janice laughed.
'Oh, yea, like, he knows nothing,' Rose joined in the laughter.
'I could tell you enjoyed yourself, that's the important thing,' Janice said.
Rose went quiet for a moment, with the memory of them making out on the back seat of his car. Until then, she hadn't realised how much she needed sex. It had been two years since her husband died, and she hadn't even gone out on a date.
'Like, lighten up, mom, yea. Anyway, I want to go out on a date Saturday. I've got to make it up to him, after, you know, like, what happened. No! I haven't told him, and he's not to find out!' Rose petulantly spoke.
'Alright. I won't say anything about the twins. I won't tell him you're a dirty slut,' she told her mother.
'Mom! I'm not! It kinda just happened, yea. I didn't mean it, like, the twins were so, like, you know, handy. I'm just a schoolgirl, so they took advantage. They wouldn't have dared if I was an adult!' Rose squirmed on the seat, looking decidedly uncomfortable.
'You're on the pill now, so why not,' Janice smiled.
'Mom! I'm not going to do anything, like, no way!' Rose lied.
Janice was about to remind her mother that she had been caught by a neighbour. She was a twenty-six year old woman, and shouldn't go out with a boy from school. Whilst immersed in the role of an eighteen-year-old schoolgirl, the woman had conveniently forgotten how inappropriate it was. Janice wasn't going to discourage her now this job had been offered. It seemed a good opportunity to keep her happily in the role of schoolgirl.
'Just give it a few days for the pill to take effect, then you'll be covered. You'll be alright by Saturday,' Janice encouraged her mother.
'No! I'm not going to do it! Like, what do you mean?' Rose quietly asked.
'The contraceptive pill won't take effect for a few days, so you need to wait,' Janice explained.
'Like, this is the same one as before, yea?' Rose pointed out.
'Oh, yes, of course, err, well, don't do anything, just wait a few days. Promise me,' Janice told her mother.
'Of course. Like, I can't can I, you know, with, err, like, a boy from school, yea,' Rose hesitantly spoke.
Rose wondered what all that was about. Her daughter had registered her with a doctor, to put her on the pill, when she already had a prescription. It was supposed to be just to get a prescription in her new name, Janice. Her daughter could now take her contraceptive pill, in the name of Rose.
Oh! Shit! Was her daughter already stealing her pill?
'So you'll be taking the pill issued in my name. I didn't need it, so that's alright. Probably won't need it now, either,' Rose commented.
'Well, that's right, you didn't need it, so I've been taking it,' Janice let slip.
'No problem,' Rose grimaced, and sipped at the coffee, trying to hide a look of fear.
'You all right? You look very pale, sweetie,' Janice told her mother.
'I'm alright, it's probably the pill,' Rose grimaced. 'I'll go and change.'
As her mother walked out of the kitchen, Janice realised what she had been doing. She'd been encouraging her mother to fuck a schoolboy! She'd put her on the pill, and told her she could screw her boyfriend, Paul. Janice chortled to herself, from the strange situation, and from enjoying this new power over an adult.
