Day 7 -- Wednesday
For the first time in a week, Paige actually woke up happy. She wasn't thinking about how terrible Lee's blackmail was. She wasn't scared about her father finding out what Lee had made her do. Life actually seemed kind of good for her. She had school with all her friends, she was still daddy's princess at home, and she had a job right next door that was pretty easy and gave her a bit of cash on top of it.
The one thing that haunted her was the scent of Lee's bedroom the day before. It was almost like the scent was there somehow. It wasn't obvious; it was like something in the background of a picture, only there when Paige wasn't trying to find it.
Paige rose from bed and slid into the shower, letting the warm water cleanse her young, slender body. As she stood under the streaming water, the scent started to wash away as she soaped up her frame. She carefully rubbed her scented body wash through the tuft of hair framing her virgin sex.
Her breath caught momentarily in her throat as her fingers brushed her clit, finding it hard, though she couldn't understand why. She blushed hard at this unexpected discovery, embarrassed by something she couldn't explain even though no one would ever know. She rushed to finish her shower and hopped out, drying off and getting dressed for school.
All of Paige's embarrassment melted away and completely left her mind when she arrived downstairs and saw her father at the breakfast table. "Good morning, daddy!" burst excitedly from her lips the moment she reached the bottom of the stairs. She practically ran across the kitchen to lock a hug around his neck, forgetting anything but happiness in that first moment.
Paige's father could scarcely recall seeing his daughter so happy. He threw his arms around Paige, locking her in a hug that always made her feel safe and loved, and greeted her back, "Someone's happy this morning."
Paige only smiled broadly and kissed her father on the cheek, then bounced over to her mother and gave her a hug and kiss with just as much affection. Paige couldn't stop smiling the whole morning as she prepared her breakfast and sent her parents off to their respective days.
After a quick breakfast of her own, Paige headed off to school, not seeing Lee at all this morning.
Paige's happiness flowed from her throughout her school day. Everyone who knew her well seemed to comment about her particularly cheerful mood.
She hopped off the school bus in front of her house and immediately went over to Lee's front door, as was becoming her daily ritual. She started to knock on His door when she noticed a note attached to it, with her name written on it.
Paige carefully unfolded the note and read it to herself:
Hello Paige.
Sorry I'm not here this afternoon, I had a call to do a quick photo shoot. I'll probably be gone till late this evening. I left a key for you under the mat by the back door. All I need you to do today is tidy up the office, the den, and the kitchen. I left your twenty dollars on the desk in the office. Please keep the key when you're finished, you might need it again sometime. Make sure you lock up when you leave.
