Grangemoor Routines
A YSS story from Uniform Girls 13 following on from Two Drowned Rats.
‘Ah, Julie and April. Whatever kept you then? Where can
you have been?’
The two girls were just back from their hike. Eight miles
with the atrocious weather not letting up for one instant. They stood unhappily
in front of Mr Bingley’s desk, red-faced and red-legged above their yellow
wellies from the wind and the rain. They had taken off their oilskins and so
there were bare bottom cheeks to be seen as well, in those special Institution
shorts which had the two round holes cut in the seat so that a girl’s buttocks
were nude and available. The girls’ bared bottoms were rather pinkish too.
‘Eh? What’s the meaning of this very late return?’
Julie blinked and shook her head. ‘Very sorry, Mr Bingley.
That weather…’
But both she and April knew that Mr Bingley didn’t want to
hear excuses about the weather. Or anything else. He knew well enough that they
couldn’t have got back any earlier, not in those conditions, not if they went
the full distance and reported at the Grey Mare, as they had to. But though Mr
Bingley knew this he didn’t want to hear it. He wanted to bluster on, work
himself up a bit. And then get out his cane. Or something. Mr Bingley was their
Housemaster. Mr Bingley was not a nice man. But then none of the Housemasters
at Grangemoor Institution were nice. Each in charge of a wing of 10 girls they
made it their business to be as unpleasant and beastly as possible. They liked being
unpleasant and beastly and anyway Grangemoor wanted them to be like that.
‘The weather is certainly no excuse for being as late as
this.’
He peered at them from behind his gold-rimmed spectacles.
April was the one he fancied most. Not as tall as Julie, a nicely rounded
brunette with usually, as now, a look of butter-melting innocence on her pert
face. Yes, April first. Not that he didn’t fancy blonde Julie as well. But she
would do nicely for afters.
‘No, I shall certainly have to deal firmly with this
matter. Julie, you may go for the moment. Go back to your room and get changed.
And report back here in one hour’s time.’
With a quick look at her companion Julie went out. There
wasn’t much difference, having it now or later. April looked studiously at the
floor. She knew Mr Bingley fancied her and also he was just about the most
beastly Housemaster at Grangemoor. And that was saying something.
‘Come here, April.’
The primly unctuous voice. April shuffled forward in her
wellies, round his desk to stand next to him. She had been here before of
course, in Mr Bingley’s little office. So she knew what to expect.
‘So what were you doing, you wretched creatures? Eh?
Meeting boys… or men? Or misbehaving at the Grey Mare?’
‘No sir,’ she whispered. Mr Bingley was patting the bare
cheeks of her bottom. There was no point in arguing because it wouldn’t do any
good. Mr Bingley was going to deal with her, he always did when he’d got you in
his little room. There would be a choice of course. But the alternatives were
equally awful.
‘What do you mean, No sir?’ But Mr Bingley did not wait
for an answer to this question.
‘Slip your shorts down, April, will you.’
Yes. It was not the first time he had said that either.
The cut-out areas in the seat of the shorts were there so that a girl could be
instantly caned or strapped without the shorts’ removal. But like those men in
the Grey Mare Mr Bingley preferred to have them down, this offering more scope.
April’s hands fumbled with the popper, and the zip. There was naturally nothing
underneath.
‘A little further. And then stand with your legs apart.’
The shorts at mid-thigh stretched as far as they would go
by April’s parted legs. Yes, that was much better, that was how Mr Bingley
liked to have a girl. His hand now lightly sliding over the fully bared bottom.
April trembling with that awful feeling of vulnerability that a girl is bound
to have in this position, a feeling of being… well, open. Wide open in fact for
any sort of horrible, abrupt invasion. Mr Bingley’s hand.
‘Now let’s hear it, April. Improper dalliance with strange
men on the way? Or at the Grey Mare?’
‘No sir,’ she yelped. Mr Bingley’s hand had slid down and
April knew what sooner or later it was going to do. That inviting space formed
by her parted thighs and lowered shorts.
‘Nnnngggggg…’
A hissed expulsion of breath. The hand had done it. Gone in. Mr Bingley’s voice, as if the hand and what it was now at had nothing to do with him.
‘You know what I think, April. I think you are becoming a
very naughty girl and rather than being any better after two weeks here you are
worse. So I have in mind laying the cane across your backside in a considerably
harder manner than I have thus far done. And let you have, say, a full dozen of
them. What do you say to that?’
‘Mmmggghhh…!’
A not very meaningful sound that was partly in response to
Mr Bingley’s words and partly in respect to the hand. His knowing fingers.
Stroking. Intruding. Entering.
‘I am afraid I cannot understand you, April.’
She was holding onto the desk now, otherwise her knees
were going to buckle. She was feeling pretty exhausted anyway after being out
there struggling in the wind and rain, and now what Mr Bingley was doing…
‘No… noooo…’
More identifiable this time. No to Mr Bingley’s dreadful
suggestion regarding the cane and no to the hand. But April couldn’t stop the
hand just as she couldn’t stop Mr Bingley giving her 12 unbearable cuts with
the cane if he wanted to. Her hips were bucking, squirming and April couldn’t
stop that either. The hand was deliberately setting out to get her all hot and
aroused and it was succeeding. A girl couldn’t help responding, getting
aroused, when… He would bring her up, to the very brink. And then…
‘Nggg…aaahhhh…’
Sounds of reluctant response. Urgent arousal. And April’s
movements had correspondingly increased. She was beginning to lose control.
Was she ready yet? April’s round bottom beginning to go
like a piston. Her breath coming in tortured gasps. Yes. Yes… Mr
Bingley getting to his feet.
‘Get over the desk, Miss. I can just imagine how you have
been behaving. Or rather misbehaving. Clearly a very hard caning indeed is the
only remedy.’
The hand came away now. April, making sobbing, gasping
sounds, got down. Her whole body was seething, pulsating. Mr Bingley’s fiendish
hand had brought her to the very peak and she was teetering on the edge. Her
whole person now ultra-sensitive to the slightest touch. But it was not the
slightest touch that was coming.
THRAPP…!
It felt as if her brains had been socked through the
ceiling. Out into orbit.
‘Aaaeee…’ she screamed.
The unctuous voice. ‘Keep it still, Miss. How do you
expect me to hit it like that? Keep it still or it will be two dozen.’
‘Noooo…’
THRAPP!!
April’s round bottom doing some kind of frantic tribal
dance as she struggled to hang on to her sanity. He couldn’t cane
her this hard. He couldn’t… But…
THWAATTT!!
----//----
Weakly knocking at Mr Halford’s door. Mr Halford, Director
of Grangemoor, liked to keep himself informed, to keep in touch. In particular
he liked to see a girl when she had been freshly caned. So you could frequently
be sent to him right after a caning. As April had been now. Sniffling sobs were
still coming at frequent intervals and as for her bottom. She tried to shut her
bottom and what had happened to it out of her mind.
In his office she handed over Mr Bingley’s note which
detailed her offence, or rather what Mr Bingley had accused her of. ‘Loitering
with strangers while on a Punishment Hike,’ Mr Halford read out. ‘And been
given twelve with the cane, eh? Hmm… Let’s have a look then, shall we? Take
down your shorts.’
You could of course see the stripes pretty well already,
with the cheeks of April’s bottom protruding firmly out of the cut-outs of her
shorts. Angry red-purpling stripes for Mr Bingley, as good as his word, had
really laid it on. But like just about everyone else, in spite of the cut-outs,
Mr Halford liked getting shorts down. Facing him April once more took them
down.
Mr Halford had a good look at that, the neat
brown bush, and then told her to turn. It was true you could see more, the
whole picture as opposed to that revealed by the two round windows. A number of
the strokes had been applied across the soft undercurve, and the tops of the
thighs, which the two windows hadn’t shown.
‘Mmm. Must have stung I should imagine,’ Mr Halford
observed sagely.
That had to be the understatement of the century. April
made a sobbing sound. ‘But well deserved.’ Mr Halford’s hand was patting and
squeezing. April winced, gasping. Her bottom still felt a lot like raw meat.
‘In fact,’ went on Mr Halford, ‘I rather think…’
April didn’t have to wait to hear what Mr Halford rather
thought. She knew from experience, as most of the others did, that the Director
liked to spank on top of a caning. A girl was naturally much more lively when
her bum was in that state. Wriggling and writhing like a demented fish out of
water. This seemed to appeal to Mr Halford.
April found herself being pulled down over Mr Halford’s
lap.
----//----
‘Twelve!’ exclaimed Susan. ‘God, I’ve never had twelve.
What about Julie?’
Julie it seemed had had twelve as well. And had also had
to go to Mr Halford with a note directly afterwards.
‘God!’ breathed Susan again.
They were getting ready for bed, or rather getting ready
for Pre-Bed Inspection. The 10 girls in Mr Bingley’s charge getting into the
pale yellow pyjamas. Tight cotton tops and tight trousers. Grangemoor pyjama
trousers were very similar to Grangemoor shorts; that is they had two nice
convenient round holes cut in the seat of the garment. For the same reasons as
with the shorts, i.e. so that a girl’s bottom could be quickly and conveniently
dealt with.
It was almost 9 o’clock and they all scurried into
position, each girl standing at the foot of her bed and facing it. This
produced two lines of girls, back to back. Or bottom to bottom if you wish. At
nine sharp Mr Bingley appeared. Each girl standing silent and still. And
fearful. For it did not take much for Mr Bingley to slap your bottom and say
matter-of-factly, ‘You can come with me, Miss.’
Mr Bingley commenced his inspection. Up one side between
the two lines of girls and then down the other. That was Mr Bingley’s routine.
Tracey… Susan… Joanne… He stopped at each girl with his hand fumbling about a
bit. You stood patiently to attention and didn’t move a muscle while he did
that. Rebecca… Sharon… Julie… He stopped a bit longer with Julie. Stroking her
bum he asked if she had learnt her lesson. Julie whispered ‘Yes sir.’
But at the end, after he’d been round and inspected all of
them, it was April. ‘April, come with me please.’
‘What’s he going to do?’ hissed Tracey as they all climbed
into their beds. Tracey had only been at Grangemoor for two days. A couple of
girls laughed. Nervous little laughs.
Because although it was acknowledged that at the moment Mr Bingley had a thing about April, tomorrow it could be you.
These are two great linked stories (although the ending of Two Drowned Rats seems to imply that the narrator will be taking up a temporary position at Grangemoor in the sequel, but this does not happen – or if it did we're not told about it!)
ReplyDeleteThat scene in 'The Grey Mare' is marvellous. I can just imagine a quiet, sleepy, remote country pub like that on a weekday afternoon, with the barman and a couple of hearty, rustic regulars giving two young bare bottomed lasses what for, spanking and groping them and cackling away all the while. What a fantastic little 'lockdown' that would be to walk in on and be invited to partake in? It fair warms the cockles just thinking about it!
The regime at Grangemoor ticks most of my boxes. Although this is apparently in the YSS series of stories, this 'institution' seems to me to be more of a kind of place where 'miscreants' are sent rather than girls generally (even if only classes 3 & 4) – although I suppose this could be a 'Remedial Training Centre' (RTC). Of course, in the kind of highly regimented society I envisage, what might deem a young woman a 'miscreant' might seem a little 'draconian' by the standards of today. 'Immodest' dress in a public place, for instance, which could be as minor as a girl wearing her gingham a couple of inches too high above the knee. Or unauthorised sexual activity – sex prior to marriage in other words, although in practice this would not apply to sexual relations between young women and those gentlemen deemed to be their 'socio-economic elders and betters'. A general attitude of disrespect and insubordination to such gentlemen might be another reason for referral..
I like the way that Grangemoor appears to be in the control of real 'bastards' also. If one thinks of the hard case warders in the film 'Scum', then that is how I imagine the likes of Mr Bingley to be, though transferred from the environs of the all male 'Borstal' to the all female 'Reform and Rehabilitation' centres of the 'new moral order'. There these men would be free to discipline and 'enjoy' their charges, as is their right, as they see fit. Referral to a 'Reform and Rehabilitation' facility must be something which is heartily dreaded, the ultimate deterrent against rebellion. Likewise, after suffering one period of detention in such a facility, no young woman would be wishing to return and will endeavour to amend her conduct and behaviour accordingly.
The eight mile punishment hikes in inclement weather (for 'talking at meal times') was a great idea. Especially with the already exhausted girls having to suffer their ordeals at The Grey Mare at the half way mark and, of course, the looming threat of Mr Bingley and his cane, and whatever else he cares to do to them, on their return to the Centre. I am very much in favour of this kind of spartan and physically gruelling regime for naughty young women – cold showers, arduous exercise regimes, cross country runs, and meagre and tasteless, though nutritionally sufficient, food rations. Additional rations would be available, but they would have to be earned – a bit like 'I'm a Celebrity'! Ha! Ha!
Actually I can't help thinking that eight mile 'hike' should have been more of a run, with no sou'westers and wellington boots or anything - just shorts, vests and pumps. A bit of wind and rain shouldn't cause any real harm to a girl, not one who is fit and healthy, as all girls should be. And if they're not, the regime should soon make them so. I'm still not completely sold on those shorts either. They've appeared in another story so I'm thinking there's a Blushes writer who was quite keen on the idea. Thing is, they rightly come down for the spanking and caning anyway so what's the point, though I can see the point in terms of making a girl always feel vulnerable in that area as well as having the buttocks free for a bit of impromptu groping or a cautionary one off swipe of the cane. Still, there's something a tad ungainly about them in my opinion.
I agree that both instalments are very entertaining. Personally I see a place for the customised shorts and pyjama bottoms, particularly at the initial groping stage. Getting them down later in the proceedings is of course all part of it.
ReplyDeleteNo, Colin, the more I think about it the more I'm anti these shorts. Surely very brief and tight-fitting ordinary shorts would be better standard detention centre issue? There's some wonderful examples of such contained within the Blushes archives. The ones featured here, for instance:
Deletehttps://room2dspanking.blogspot.com/2023/02/a-ritual-caning.html
Isn't having the buttocks permanently on show a bit like unwrapping one's Christmas presents before the big day? It spoils the surprise! (Although Christmas would defintely be coming around far more than once a year in this context, more like once a day!) And the sight of so many tightly encased young nates would surely only increase one's appetite for the spanking and caning action when the time does finally come to having them down.
Somewhat in contradiction (though life is full of pleasant contradictions) I do mention in my comment beneath those pictures that it would be a good idea to make such shorts (aside from socks and plimsolls) the only items of 'uniform' in the spring and summer months, meaning that detainees would be permanently topless for such periods. I have now refined this idea somewhat and decided that this measure should be at the discretion of the institutional authorities, ostensibly as a form of punishment, but actually so that the prettier and/or more 'well developed' detainees can be targeted. Accordingly, those made to go 'topless' would be singled out for harsher treatment.
Oh, I'm equally a fan of very brief, tight fitting, ordinary shorts. NMO, the 'A Ritual Caning' example which you cite is a perfect illustration of the kind of thing: in that story, the brevity and tightness of Sharon's punishment shorts are in a fascinating contrast to the baggy, unpressed trousers of the unkempt Mr Balcher. It's the better attired Mr Pearling who's depicted in the photoshoot for that story.
ReplyDeleteAnd what a fine breasted creature is 'Sharon' in those photographs. Just the kind that would be subjected to the 'topless' regime.
