It was over spring break that Cassy broke the terrible news to Lilly. They had the house to themselves and were poolside, sunbathing nude and enjoying a warm Saturday afternoon. Cassy had been a little quieter than usual. Lilly thought that maybe she didn't feel well or was just tired from a sex-filled Friday night. She had nearly dozed off when her best friend said, "Lilly, I have to tell you something."

Lilly heard the worry in Cassy's voice. Propping herself on an elbow, she asked, "What's the matter?"

Cassy broke eye contact and stared at the glimmering pool. The giant inflatable Swan floated lazily atop the blue water. "Daddy accepted a new assignment."

"What does that mean?" Lilly looked to her friend, a sinking, helpless feeling settling over her heart. She absentlly fiddled with the Vatspalt family charm that hung on a black velvet choker around her neck.

Cassy took her hand. "It's a much bigger museum than San Francisco. Far more prestigious."

Lilly knew a few things about museums now. "Like, what, LACMA?" Los Angeles was a one-hour plane ride. It wasn't perfect, but Lilly was sure she'd still find time to spend with her other family.

Cassy looked at the ground and shook her head. "The Rijksmeseum."

Lilly blinked. "In Amsterdam?" She felt a weight slam down in the pit of her stomach when Cassy nodded. She shook her head. "No," came out in a choked whisper. "You can't leave!" The tears came quickly and Cassy slid over to Lilly's lounge chair to hug her. "Fuck."

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Cassy hugged her tightly. "At least it's not until the end of the school year."

Lilly was heartbroken. But her sadness quickly turned to anger. "So what? That's only a couple months from now."

"I know." And then Cassy started to cry as well. There was more to the story, but this was all Lilly was permitted to know. She stuck to the script. "Sometimes I hate that we move so much."

They kissed and then Lilly nuzzled into Cassy's neck. It was warm and smelled of coconut sunscreen. Her anger grew as she cried on Cassy's shoulder. The Vatspalt's were everything to her. She felt complete whenever she was around them. They had opened her mind to entirely new ways of thinking and opened her body to unquenchable pleasure. Her confidence and emotional well-being had grown into something so robust that even her parents had noticed. She carried herself differently and she interacted with people now in subtle ways that were undefinable but also undeniable. For some unknown reason, a vision of Shelly popped into her mind's eye at that instant and she knew what she was going to do to her best friend. Sliding her hand between Cassy's thighs, she said, "Spread your legs." Then she bit Cassy on the shoulder.

Her friend whimpered. "Okay, but don't bite me so hard." Cassy obediently opened her thighs and Lilly's fingers were on the girl's sex, manipulating the fluffed lower lips.

Lilly said, "Sorry." But she wasn't. She was mad at Daddy for taking the job. How could he do such a thing? It was like she was being surgically removed from the family. Didn't they love her as much as she loved them? Didn't she belong to them? Hadn't she shown them that love in return? She had given herself over completely to them. Her anger turned on Cassy at that moment.

Lilly moved down her friend's body, pushing her back on the lounge chair as she kissed the low valley of Cassy's modest cleavage. Why hadn't Cassy told her this was coming? Landing such a huge job would have taken months. She could have mounted a defense or - at a minimum - been emotionally preparing for their departure. Lilly decided that Cassy had to have known this was coming. Making such a big move would have involved the entire family. They would have discussed it at the dinner table or around the pool or sitting around the ottoman. Lilly seethed. She had been left out of the discussions intentionally.

Her anger bubbled and she stopped kissing Cassy. Her voice was tight and seething when she commanded, "Cassy, I told you to spread your fucking legs." Lilly pinched and twisted Cassy's feminine petals.

Cassy whimpered. "Okay. Be gentle." There was concern in her eyes.

"Just be quiet." And then she kissed Cassy hard, ramming her tongue down her friend's throat; their teeth mashed together. Lilly didn't intend for it to be gentle.

Sliding lower, she suckled Cassy's conical breasts and roughly pushed two fingers inside her friend's lower mouth. She was pleased to discover it was bone dry. Cassy yelped, "Ow, that hurts!"

"So what." Her teeth nashed into Cassy's flesh.

"Lilly, stop!"

"No." It came out as a clenched whisper. Lilly's pace quickened. She was shoving hard, deeply penetrating her friend's desiccated estuary, enjoying the sight of her fingers discovering no moisture, no matter how far she surveyed. That Cassy's special place remained arid, despite the attention it was receiving, only fed into Lilly's vengeful enjoyment of the punishment she dispatched.

Cassy grunted and cried out again when Lilly rammed a third finger inside her parched girl-part. She yelped again and again, with each forceful plunge. Writhing atop the lounge chair, small beads of sweat formed across her creased brow and her tiny body shuddered against the onslaught, her breasts vibrating tightly.

Breathless and consumed with rage, Lilly paused and looked into Cassy's eyes as she tucked her thumb and pinky into her palm and force-fed her hand between the puckered lips of Cassy's pussy, all the way to the thick knot of knuckles at the base of her fingers. Cassy gasped in surprise. Her eyes were pleading and fresh tears welled.

"Lilly, you're hurting me." The comment only fueled Lilly's anger. Twisting her hand, she pushed again and again, driving hard. "Oh, God, that hurts! Lilly, why are you doing this to me?" Her eyes pinched shut and she threw her head back when Lilly only responded with more force. Cassy tried to push her off, but Lilly was heavier and much stronger.

"Just shut up." Lilly dripped sweat on Cassy's face and breasts as she pummeled her friend's snippa. No, Lilly realized, that word was too sweet, too reminiscent of their first encounters. "Your fucking little cunt deserves this." Looking down, Lilly saw her friend's fluffed lips white with strain, stretched tightly around her driving hand, which was still dry. "How could you do this to me?" They were both crying hard, Cassy asking sweetly for Lilly to stop.

"Please, baby, just shut the fuck up," Lilly whispered. Wiping her sweaty face across Cassy's breasts as she worked, Lilly slipped her other hand around Cassy's slender neck, her thumb pressed into the hollow, and pulled a nipple deeply into her mouth, her teeth grinding into Cassy's areola.

Cassy sounded like a wounded animal, her cries bleating and pathetic and nonsensical as they carried across the backyard. But she was too small to offer any resistance. "Don't. God. Okay. Please." And in a gruff whisper beneath Lilly's assault, Cassy finally succumbed. "I understand," she said, and didn't stop it from happening. Spreading her legs further apart, tears streamed down her cheeks and glinted in the afternoon sunshine as she allowed her body to go limp.

Lilly's prey had given up and she rejoiced in her revenge. Partially rolling on top of her friend for better leverage, she pressed her breasts to Cassy's, and pushed her clenched fist against the tiny opening. Twisting her wrist with every upward thrust, Lilly felt her best friend's vulva resist the intrusion; the dense knot of Cassy's pelvic muscles doing their best to keep Lilly at bay. And then it happened.

Cassy cried out loudly. "Oh, God! Lilly, that hur...!" Then she screamed.

Lilly finally pushed through the tautly stretched opening, fully engulfing her fist. Cassy's parched pussy lips seemed to devour Lilly's hand and sealed tightly around her wrist. Lilly felt a dry warmth envelop her fist and when she twisted her wrist, Cassy moaned. Without Cassy's natural lubricant to seal the intrusion, little puffs of air escaped the smaller girl's womb with each drive.

"It's inside me. Lilly. You're inside me," Cassy said between yelps. "Please stop. Please take it out."

But Lilly smothered Cassy's protestations. Sliding her hand from Cassy's neck to her mouth, Lilly said, "Shush, baby, please." Tenderly kissing Cassy on the cheek, she said, "It's meant to be stretched. I'm doing that for you. Just let it happen."

Meak whimpers were Cassy's response.

Lilly whispered, "I love you," over and over while driving forward until her hand would go no further and her knuckles pressed against Cassy's cervix with each push. Lilly knew it was painful as Cassy's legs involuntarily slammed closed around Lilly's arm. When this happened, Lilly twisted her friend's bulbous nipple and said, "Open them back up, baby, or I'll press harder.".

Cassy obeyed. Sobs wracked her body.

Lilly didn't stop pumping for a long time and eventually Cassy stopped crying. She lay limp in the warm sun, felled like a baby antelope overpowered by a large predator.

Looking at the panting little creature, Lilly ran her tongue down Cassy's sweaty body until she located her clit. Sucking the delicious pink bud into her mouth, she bit down on it, eliciting new cries.

Smiling around her meal, the huntress feasted on her prey and started thrusting again.

Lilly was lying facedown on her bed on a Saturday afternoon. Browsing through her social channels, her mother knocked on the bedroom door. It was six weeks since the Vatspalts had left and Lilly's parents were busy packing for their annual beach house vacation. It was warm and Lilly was still in her pajamas; the ceiling fan wafting cool air over her upturned bottom. The letter was from Cassy and showed an address in Amsterdam.

Lilly, with no real friendships outside of Cassy and the Vatspalt family, initially spent much of her time alone. She started following some foodie influencers and that went down a rabbit hole she quite enjoyed. She started spending more time in the kitchen; trying simple recipes at first, then graduating to more complex meals.

It was a time-sink and she often lost herself in discovery. From braising to simmering; mixing, blending and searing, she grew comfortable with it all. She tried Mexican, French, Asian and Italian recipes and even delved into Mediterranean, Indian and African cuisine. Simple dishes evolved into complex offerings with layers of subtle flavors and aromas.

She still preferred to be nude when home alone but she quickly discovered that it stung when something hot splattered on your boob or your girl-part. So she dug her great grandmother's apron out of a drawer and wrapped it around her waist.

Screened with a pinup girl who was also clad in an apron and nothing else, her heart-shaped bottom was revealed. She stood long legs in outlandishly spiked heels and looked over her shoulder with a come-hither gaze and pooched lips. "Kiss the Cook," it said in stylish script. The garment had clearly come from a bygone era and Lilly was sure her mother found it distasteful, which made it even more enjoyable to wear.

The kitchen was ill-equipped to handle her burgeoning skills and before long she was asking her parents to purchase different gadgets and tools as she became more comfortable. They were amenable and Lilly found a tolerable connection for their relationship to - tenuously - foster again. Mom and Dad got amazing dinners when they came home from work, and Lilly enjoyed the process of turning a bunch of disparate ingredients into something delicious.

She also started looking for a summer job. Making some money would help her buy the kitchen gear she desired and she wanted to start saving for a car. Working would also be better than simply sitting at home all summer. As if God was looking down on her, Lilly found a part-time position at a boutique kitchen and cookware store in Old Town Palo Alto.

Many of the other employees were accomplished cooks and since the store had a fully functioning kitchen, Lilly learned more about food preparation from her coworkers. She also bought all sorts of new tools that served a dual purpose. They improved her ability to prepare food and many of them had handles that fit nicely inside her cunt and her bottom.

For fun, she often inserted something in both places and would then putter around the house with them dangling between her legs. Keeping the tools wedged in-place was a workout and she found her pelvic muscles were becoming stronger as she clenched them together while walking. The swaying movement of the tools often caused her special place to drool and she would take a few minutes to pleasure herself as she thought back on her time with the Vatspalts.

Learning of their departure had been a deeply inflicted wound at the time and she had taken her anger out on Cassy. She recalled withdrawing her hand from Cassy's gaping cunt and rolling off her friend, gasping for air and covered in sweat. Suddenly realizing what she had done made her feel wretched. She cried harder and apologized repeatedly but Cassy didn't respond. She just curled into the fetal position and kept asking Lilly, "Why did you do that? Why were you so rough with me? I love you."

Lilly didn't have an answer to that and eventually got Cassy off the lounge chair, helped her upstairs and tucked her into bed. Cuddling her best friend until she fell asleep, Lilly then went downstairs to wait for the rest of the family to get home. Momma and Daddy walked into the family room to find Lilly sitting in one of the wingback chairs. Immediately sensing something was wrong, they asked Louise and Erik to go upstairs. When they left, Lilly said, "I hurt Cassy. I'm so sorry." And then a torrent of tears followed. "Why did I do that?"

Momma and Daddy listened carefully, noting that they were sorry they hadn't shared the news sooner. They were honest (to the extent they could be); the news had been shared within their family and they had not let Lilly know. Daddy had tears in his eyes when he said, "It's our fault, actually. The kids wanted to tell you sooner but we thought it would be too hard for you to hear." Lilly couldn't know about the true reason they were leaving America.

Momma said, "We were worried that you would stop coming over to spend time with us and that was too difficult to bear."

Lilly sniffled and shook her head, "I still would have spent time with you. I love you all!" And then she cried all over again. It took a long time but Lilly finally settled down. They were hugging her, their bodies wrapped warmly in their embrace.

"Lilly, there is something else," Momma said.

Pulling back, Lilly felt her heart start to race again. "What is it?"

"Gustov will be closing his practice here in Palo Alto. It's been difficult for him to keep all three offices running and he wants to focus on his European locations." Another lie, but it was necessary.

Lilly expelled a deep breath, then she started sobbing again. Her support system was evaporating. Her entire world was collapsing. "Why are you all doing this to me? It's not fair."

At this, Daddy spoke. "Good Girl, I think you can understand why I would take this new position. This is a tremendous opportunity."

"I know. It's just that I'll be all alone." But there was one last hope. "Will...will Uncle Lars come back to see his clients? Will he come back to see me?"

Momma patted Lilly's hand. "I'm sure he will, Sweetie." This was also a fabrication; her brother would not be coming back to America to see Lilly. But she knew her words worked when Lilly showed a half-hearted grin. Lilly had a crush on her brother.

Lilly sniffled. "That's something, at least."

They held her hands and said they were as much to blame for Cassy bearing the brunt of Lilly's anger as she was. There were more tears and apologies and when Cassy hobbled downstairs, Lilly hugged her fiercely. "I'm so sorry."

Momma and Daddy clarified to their youngest daughter why Lilly's behavior manifested itself the way it had and Lilly asked Cassy if she could ever be forgiven. In a small voice, Cassy said, "You're my best friend, I could never stay mad at you." And Lilly sat down and cried some more.

That night, behind Cassy's closed bedroom door, Lilly said, "It's only fair." They had showered and Lilly laid face-up on her bed. Cassy sat at her side, looking soft and pretty and slightly dazed. "Did you hear me, baby?" Cassy's hair was still damp, her skin pale; save for the reddened gash between her thighs. Her pussy still gaped from the abuse. Lilly reached up and gently caressed Cassy's cheek. "Baby?"

Cassy shuddered and her eyes came into focus. Looking at Lilly's girl-part, she trailed a finger downward over Lilly's tummy. "Are you sure?" Cassy circled Lilly's belly button then went lower, her nail pressing into the soft hillock of Lilly's mons.

Nodding, Lilly closed her eyes and spread her thighs, trying to slow her heart rate. Cassy crawled onto the bed and sat on her knees between Lilly's legs. She traced her finger lower into the fold. Lilly sighed when Cassy found her clit.

"You're my best friend and I love you so much," said Lilly. "How I could do such a thing is just awful." Sitting up, she kissed Cassy softly on the lips and whispered, "It's what I deserve." And she thought: It's meant to be stretched.

Cassy bent lower and kissed Lilly's hairless mons and then began lapping at the crease, moistening the entrance and preparing it for the intrusion. On cue, Lilly's cunt responded, the thin pink lips peeking out from their hiding place. Sitting up, Cassy pushed a finger into Lilly's special place. "I guess we were telling Josh the truth after all. We were working on something."

This time, the fisting was loving and tender. Cassy took her time; working Lilly's girl-part into a glimmering froth as she slowly drove deeper. Lilly still felt awful. She had the benefit of arousal while Cassy's punishment had been administered under fear and incapacitation. Still, the discomfort Lilly felt as Cassy's clenched hand pushed past her vulva was very real.

The next two months had been equal parts fun and depressing. When Lilly's mother learned of the Vatpalt's pending departure, her parents granted their daughter more time at Cassy's house, which was joyous and adventurous. But it was always tempered with the understanding that it was going to come to an end and they all shed many more tears as their time together concluded. She wasn't able to go to the airport with them and Lilly was forced to say her goodbyes on the Vatspalt's porch. Tears streamed down her face as they drove away, Cassy waving out the back window of their minivan.

____

Staring at the letter, Lilly wondered about its contents. She kept in close contact with the Vatspalts, Uncle Lars and Gustov through their social channels and by more private streams, so a hand-written letter was odd.

They had all agreed to record and share their encounters. Lilly did the same but so far had only sent videos of her pleasuring herself. She was too nervous about getting a reputation around town and the boys her age weren't interesting anyway. They were too immature and she was confident they wouldn't understand how to provide her the kind of pleasure she was now accustomed to.
