Tommy Bannister got in trouble, it was not the first time for the eighteen year old high school drop out but Judge Madge Winters decided it will be the last. He was caught this time for speeding, the police with reasonable cause searched his car found he had a twelve pack of beer and a small amount of weed on him.
"Mister Bannister I see you are before me again, what is this the third time in a year?" She asked.
"I think so your honor." He replied knowing it was a question that he should not answer.
"What should I do with you, jail really does not have much effect on you, definitely going to have to suspend you license for a year too many points, normally I could give you six months in jail instead I'm going to give you six months probation." She said.
"Thank you your honor." He said with some relief of not going to jail.
"We will have some conditions, you need to learn maturity, you come from a broken home with no male role model. You will report to the local big brother big sister program, they will match you up with a young boy who needs a good male influence in his life. If the program calls and tells me you are not living up to these conditions then you will be off to the county jail, I think this will be a good chance for you to make sure some young boy does not end up before me the way you have. Court adjourned." She said slamming the gavel.
He stood up with his court appointed lawyer and waited for the judge to leave the court room. His lawyer patted him on the back and escorted him out.
"Is she serious, she wants me to baby sit some snot nosed kid for six months?" He asked.
"Yes she does, it's better than jail and now that you're an adult you will start getting harder sentences if you don't straighten up. Here is the card, call Mister Jenkins as soon as you can and he will match you up with a kid." His lawyer explained handing him a card.
"I bet you two had this all worked out." Tommy said taking the card.
"Would not be doing my job if I did not have it worked out." His lawyer said leaving him to go his own way.
Later that afternoon he called and made an appointment to meet with Mister Jenkins, the next day he arrived at the local office and met the man who was short, overweight and in his mid fifties. He came out and greeted Tommy and led him to his office.
"Tommy this is Miss Kathy Woodrow and her son Seth." He said. "I think you two will be a good match."
"Miss Woodrow, Seth." He said nodding politely to her and her son.
"Like you Seth has been in trouble in school and has done some shoplifting, the same patterns you have fallen into at his age." He explained. "Seth has had three other big brothers quit on him, I think you may be the one to get through to him."
Tommy noticed Miss Woodrow was staring at him with a small smile while holding her kids hand, she found her to be attractive even with her large round glasses, her breasts looked to be large maybe in the thirty eight d range and she was too skinny or too fat. Seth was a nice kid brown hair like his mother and looked to be around the age of twelve.
"Seth gets home from school around three fifteen, can you meet him at our house at three thirty, I get home from work at four, I understand you have to do this three days a week for an hour so I hope you guys will have fun." She explained.
"Yeah sure, I guess we should start tomorrow." Tommy said.
"That would be great." Kathy said standing up with her breasts giving a little bounce. "Here is our address and phone number, see you tomorrow."
He walked out with them and watched the sway of her round ass in her jeans enjoying the view, the next day he went out to the Woodrow house. It was a nice three bedroom home, the first thing he noticed when Seth invited him in were that the rooms were small. She had the kitchen, bathroom, a family room, small living room, her master bedroom was downstairs, two small bedrooms upstairs. They had a nice back yard with an old fence in need of repair.
"Hey Seth so what are we going to do for an hour, any ideas?" He asked the boy.
"We could go out and play some catch, that is what my dad used to do before he left us." He said.
"Okay, you got an extra glove?" Tommy asked.
"Yeah you can use my dad's" Seth said handing him an old worn out mitt.
The two of the thrown the ball back and forth talking about how he got in trouble, Tommy laughed because it reminded him of himself at that age. Tommy then reminded him of how he got in trouble and was stuck doing this and he should straighten up. Seth laughed and surprised him by saying "Your not going to be a dick like the other guys."
"No kid but if you keep getting into trouble then I can get in trouble, my trouble can land me in jail." Tommy said.
Tommy continued to hang with Seth after school until his mother got home from her job as a nurse, there were a few times when Seth was not there and it did not take Tommy much effort to track him down. He was always able to stop him before he made a mistake or do something wrong. Tommy also started working for his Uncle at his garage, learning how to be a mechanic and cleaning up. He was starting to find the more he hung out with young Seth the better he was doing in school and with his behavior, it also had an effect on Tommy where he too made more effort now as well.
One day Seth was hanging out at Tommy's house, he was busy cleaning the garage out looking for tools that he could use at the shop and at home. He set a couple tents in the driveway along with the rest of the old camping equipment his dad left behind when he divorced his mother.
"Wow look at all this camping stuff, do you go camping Tommy?" Seth asked excitedly.
"Not since my dad left, when I was around your age we used to go all the time, camping and fishing." He said.
"I would love to go camping someday." Seth said as his mother pulled into the driveway the car she was driving did not sound right to Tommy.
"Come on Tommy!" His mother yelled from her unrolled window. "I don't know if the car will make it home or not."
"Miss Woodrow, I think I can fix that for you." Tommy said. "It sounds like you got a clogged fuel filter."
"Are you sure? I can't afford anything expensive and your just a kid if you mess it up and my car gets worse I will be without transportation." She said shutting the engine off.
"I'm sure, give me fifteen minutes and I'll be right back with one." He said getting into his own old pick up truck that he's been fixing up for a year now.
Tommy sped over to his Uncle's shop found the part he needed, grabbed a couple of tools and his Uncle told him he would just take it out of his paycheck. Then he got back to his house, Kathy was now out of the car and Seth was still looking at the camping equipment.
Tommy asked if he could look under the dash and he hooked up the code tester and got the code he was looking for. Then he showed Kathy and matched it up to the book to prove to her he knew what he was talking about. She let him work on her car, she told him that some how she would make payments to him on the repair and the part.
"It's a fifteen dollar part and it won't take me long to do it, so don't worry about it and it will save you money in the long run." He told her.
"Hey mom I know how you can pay him, tonight is taco night, can he come for dinner?" Seth asked.
"Yes come over for dinner, I insist, I have not really had a chance to sit down and get to know you." She said.
"Well my mother does have to work late so I was just going to have ramen noodles. Okay, why don't you take my truck and I'll meet you at your house in about fifteen minutes with your car, that way I'll know the repair was successful." He explained.
She gathered up her son and his book bag and took Tommy's truck home while he finished working on the car, she got dinner started when she got there. Tommy finished the car and twenty minutes later he showed up just in time for tacos.
The tacos were your average store bought kit, with chopped lettuce, tomatoes, onions, black olives and sour cream. They all had a good time laughing and joking while eating the tacos she made, Seth wanted Tommy to help him with homework, but Tommy insisted in helping Kathy with clearing the table and dishes. She then told him she was going to take a quick shower and he went and helped Seth finish up.
Tommy had to fight from staring when Kathy came out of the shower, she had on a night shirt that looked like a overgrown football jersey that was faded pink with white numbers. Her large breasts swayed freely in the night shirt, a slight hint of nipple pushed against the fabric. Her legs were long and muscular from being on her feet a lot as a nurse. She sat and read her book, careful not to reveal what was up the night shirt while Seth and Tommy played a couple video games.
Seth finally had to go to bed, Tommy waited for her to come back down from putting him down for the night. Tommy was getting ready to leave, when Kathy asked him not to so she could talk to him for a moment.
"Um Tommy, Seth is really excited about seeing all your camping equipment and he begged me to ask you if you could take him camping sometime, also I would like to go, you know being an overprotective mother?" She asked.
