Sue woke sometime later that afternoon. Lying quietly in the bed, she wondered momentarily why she was so sore. Then memory washed over her and she groaned softly, blushing red. That stupid dress! That was why she was so sore.
Pushing herself into a sitting position, Sue discovered that Joe had left the room. This provided her with the time to take a physical inventory. Looking down at her naked body, sure enough there were fresh bruises on her breasts, and her shoulder was stinging slightly from where he had bitten her.
But none of the pain was really that horrible a feeling, except for her rear end, where the headmaster had belted her before she had ever come home. At approximately this time in her thought processes, she noticed a large towel draped across the bedside table. This seemed out of the ordinary, but it made her realize that she would indeed like to take the time to get cleaned up.
Grabbing the towel, she made her way to the wash room, only to find that a steaming hot bath had been drawn up, filled with lovely scented bath foam. Bubble baths were considered a luxury in her home, and as a result, she had not had many throughout her life. The thought that Joe would go to such lengths for her made her very happy. After a moment, she got into the bathtub slowly. The water was still so hot that it hurt a little, but it felt extraordinarily nice to lay back and relax in the water.
Joe had been keeping an eye on Sue all afternoon. After she had dozed into sleep, he had gone to get the towel, and had left it where he knew she would see it. This was followed by a careful inventory of her damages. He really was a kind man, but when the heat of passion took him, he often became too rough. There seemed nothing he could do about it, and that was why he had not had many girlfriends.
Once he had satisfied himself that she seemed to be in no way permanently harmed, he had went about his day, making certain to check in on her now and again. When it had become apparent that she would be waking soon, he had gone to draw the bath for her, and retreated to the family room.
After the bubbles had completely vanished, Sue let the water out of the tub and proceeded to have a scalding hot shower as well. The hot bath had relieved most of her pain, though her bum was still tender, and she was feeling more or less back to normal. Wrapping herself in the oversized towel, she slipped into the hallway to go to her bedroom. Where had Joe gotten to? But then, just as she wondered about him, there he was, leaning against the door of the family room.
"Good afternoon, Sue Storm." Joe used the pet name that her family usually used when speaking to her. "How was your bath?"
Sue had come to a dead stop when she noticed Joe, her heart skipping a beat. Her emotions were jumbled, and she did not know if she was pleased to see him, or frightened. But it was obvious that her punishment was over, so she settled for pleased. "It was very nice. Thank you. I didn't even know we had bubble bath in the house." Smiling shyly up at him, she continued by him and entered her own bedroom.
Before she shut the door, Joe commented, "Dinner will be ready shortly. You looked too peaceful to disturb, so I took the liberty of getting it all ready. Don't be too long coming down." Sue looked back at him, eye brows arched with surprise. Was it that late already!? Joe just smiled mischievously at her and turned to go downstairs to the kitchen. "Also, I left some cream on your bed for you. It will help make sitting easier for the next little while; use as much as you need."
The rest of the weekend passed more or less as it normally would have. The main exception to this was that Joe treated Sue as if she were made of spun glass, and spoiled her more than she had been spoiled for a very long time. But by Sunday morning, Sue wanted to test his limits. It would seem that Friday morning was a dream, if not for the tell-tale bruising on her breasts. And while it had hurt dreadfully, Sue had derived great pleasure from the treatment as well. The fact that it was Joe who had done so simply made it that much the better, as she had fantasized about him for years.
Thus, Sue started the morning in a way that she knew would set Joe's temper on edge. Every morning when he woke up, he went for a run. Upon his return, he sat at the kitchen table and had a cup of coffee while reading the morning paper. This morning, when he went to put on his sneakers, he found the laces knotted together quite intricately. It took him a full 20 minutes to un knot them, and while he was mildly amused, by the time he got going, he was also incredibly annoyed. What did she think she was doing!?
When he got back to the house over a half hour later, he found the front door locked. Knocking availed no answer, and upon checking, the back door was locked as well. The only open window was one on the second story. While Joe would have absolutely no trouble in scaling the side of the house to get in, it did not please him that he had to. Why had she not answered the door??
Looking through the house revealed no sign of Sue, and no note to explain her disappearance. Her bed was not made, which was abnormal, her room was an absolute mess of clothes, which was obviously against her parents rules, and there was a bag of make-up lying open on her vanity. Gritting his teeth, Joe went downstairs. First he would have his coffee, and then he would get to the bottom of what was going on.
