Some concept art.

Working on getting some art up to go with my stories. I'm always looking for art so if you have something to go along with anything, hit me up. Meanwhile, here are a couple of loose sketches I'm having commissioned soon!

90 days in.

   

Ashlie felt nothing but udder disgust in herself as she silently sat and listened to the teacher explain how to solve simple math problems. As the teacher wrote on the black board, Ashlie looked at her math book. This math was be beyond simple and she had learned simple division years before. Why was she still here, doing this? Why wasn't she at work or out at the lake swimming, thought Ashlie as she starred blankly at the book.
             She quickly glanced around the classroom to confirm that she really was in school. The whole class was clad in matching uniforms and looked like slight clones of each other. Only small variations setting then apart, but pretty much looking the same. Knowing that she was dressed just the same was enough to make her sweat profoundly. She clinched the top of her school desk with her hands and felt the dread rise up her spine higher. High enough it was causing stress on the back of her neck. She rubbed the nape of her neck as if trying to wipe something away.
               breathing slightly faster out her mouth, Ashlie knew she was about to have a panic attack. She had one once and this was how it started. As the panic set in, her mind raced a million miles an hour. Was she ever going to get out of this place? She needed to run. Get out now. But how? When? Slowly Ashlie took in a breath and let it out before repeating the cycle. She needed to do something to stop the panic and her breathing was the only thing she could control at this point. Ashlie was startled and her attention was broken when the school bell buzzed loudly behind her.

"Time for recess everyone! When you get back we will pick up where we left off, OK?" Announced sister Clair with a smile.

Ashlie hesitated for a second, but stood up when all the girls around her started to move. She was dressed just like one of them, and blended right into the crowed as she got up from her seat. It was like something out of the twilight zone, a dream she couldn't wake from. As Ashlie walked in line with the schoolgirls, she paid little attention to the fact she looked like she belonged there. She was somewhat use to it now. She tried numberless times to explain that she was an adult, but no one believed her. Joining all the girls in the hall, heading in the same direction, Ashlie sighed with relief. She knew it was time for recess. It couldn't have come at a better time. It would give her plenty of time to calm down and think.
              Ashlie lowered her head as she followed the herd down the hallway. Each time felt more shameful than the last. She shouldn't be going to recess. Let alone, somewhat happy about it. feeling defeated as an adult, she sighed. Within the first week of being at the school, she was given a rather childish A-line haircut. Way shorter than it was to start with. She was forced to wear a school uniform, which consisted of: black flats, tights, a white Pete-pan collared shirt and plaid jumper. Along with the uniform she was forced to attend class. Half of the girls in the class were taller than her which added to her insecurity. At twenty one years old, Ashlie had found herself currently enrolled back in grade school. Stuck in the seventh grade with a bunch of real kids, less than half of her own age. It was a nightmare.
                 As the kids spilled out of the school doors and onto the playground, Ashlie quietly walked to the grass soccer field by the school yard fence. She wanted to be alone. As she crossed the field she felt a tear well up in her eye. The city street was just yards away. with its pedestrians and driving cars, just doing their thing. It was a tease as to what she should be doing right now. Anything. Anything but going to this stupid fucken school.                             She was getting homesick, and really missing her friends and family. That feeling made her feel more hopeless as she looked behind her shoulder to the playground of the school.Surrounded by girls, playing with no cares in the world. Not even aware that just meters away was a whole big world. She needed to get away from saint Anthony's school and home for girls.                                
             90 days. It was just a little over three months ago when Ashlie had been caught up in a horrible case of mistaken identity. She had found a complete school girl outfit at the local goodwill. The whole outfit was already put together and on sale. As Ashlie jokingly looked it over, she was surprise to see it was her size. with the exception that the white Peter-pan collared shirt would be a little tight across her chest. The plaid jumper would hide that flaw though. After buying the outfit and trying it on in her apartment, Ashlie thought it was rather cute. Maybe she could get some use out of it. Maybe sexual or just a joke gag for YouTube. She leaned towards the whole YouTube idea. She loved making prank videos. The mix up with Ashlie's identity happened later that day when she was walking along the city street. Ashlie had decided to walk to her friends work and pull a joke on her. She was almost to the coffee shop when she crossed the street and playful began skipping by an old iron fence. As Ashlie passed the front gate she felt the presence of someone walking up beside her. Ashlie's skipping had come to a stop and she turned to see who was behind her.

"what on gods green earth do you think your doing!" Snapped a nun as she forcibly grabbed Ashlie's upper arm.

Ashlie, very confused by the nun's actions, quickly countered "Uh, I think you got me mistaken for someone else? My name is Ashlie Miles. I'm 21 years old and..."

"So, your telling me, your just wearing the school uniform and standing outside the school for no apparent reason? Nice try, but we know that's not the truth, don't we. Now come with me or I will drag you back into the school." Snapped the nun as she cut Ashlie's sentence off. The nun, who was dressed in the traditional habit most old school nuns wear, tugged on Ashlie's arm.

"excuse me? I think your mistaken. I'm an adult and I'm not going with you. You can't make me. Now if you would just let me go..." Remarked Ashlie as she started to jerk the sisters hand away from her arm.

The nun held tighter on Ashlie's upper arm and true to her word, dragged Ashlie up to the front of the school. Ashlie frantically began screaming for help as she looked to the city street. Not a single person walking bye questioned what was going on as it looked like a nun dealing with her brat of a student. A very common thing to be seen at such a place. Before Ashlie had time to think or react to what was happening, she had found herself in the head mistress's office on the reviving end of a very painful spanking. She tried to explain who she was and that she didn't belong there but the nuns wouldn't listen. Without her I.D, she unable to prove who she really was. The sisters, a bit confused as to who Ashlie really was, called social services and had them come to straighten the whole thing out. Unable to find a file, the social worker started a new one and took down all the information they could. Before the man left, he informed that Ashlie was to stay until her parents were informed of her whereabouts. Ashlie was assigned a bed. In a dorm room full of girls, and Forced to attend seventh grade.
           The first month Ashlie had fought against everything. Going as far as attempting to escape twice. In the end though, Ashlie always had found herself getting caught. By the second month, Ashlie had given up on escaping and tried to form a different plan. She looked for a phone, but found that every phone was locked up in a room. Her only option at the point was sending a letter. Which she did. Ashlie sent a letter to the only address she could remember. Her parents. Now she was going on three months at saint Anthony's and found she was getting a little to use to her new life. The day before Ashlie found herself in class, participating in a class activity and having fun with the girls. After realizing what she was doing it scared her. She wasn't suppose to be having fun doing a puppet show about Noah's ark. It felt natural though when she was caught up in the moment.
          Ashlie let out a sigh and looked to the city street. Hopefully soon she would be saved. Her parents had to be getting the letters. The last one she sent she wrote urgent in big letters on the outside because a new situation had occurred. The social worker had come to the school and put a transfer in for Ashlie. Any day now, she would be transferred to a state ran girls school instead of the privet one she was at. The new school was in the next county, an hour away. She knew she wouldn't have a chance of getting away once she got there.
         Ashlie wiped the tear from her eye with her hand and put her head against the rod iron fence as she fought back more tears. Any given time she could be taken away and than there would be no hope. This would be her life for the next seven years. She hoped her mom and Dad would save her before than. They could be there at any given time as well. Everything weighed on which came first.
     Ashlie was looking through the bars of the fence when she noticed someone that looked familiar steadily approaching. As the woman got closer, Ashlie's face lit up. It wasn't her mom or Dad, but it was one of her friends! The same one she was going to pull the prank on the day she ended up in the school.

"Tracy!" Ashlie called out as the woman got closer to her location.

Tracy looked around in confusion, she swore she just heard someone call her name. Than it happen a again.

"Tracy! Over her!" Exclaimed Ashlie as she ran up to the spot where Tracy had stopped.

Tracy glanced over to the schoolgirl behind the bars and her mouth dropped in shock. "Ashlie? W-what...what are, where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you!" Tracy exclaimed.

Ashlie looked up at her friend with pleading eyes and replied "Tracy, listen! You got to get me..."

"why are you dressed like that?" Interrupted Tracy as she looked Ashlie over from head to toe. This certainly wasn't where she had expected Ashlie to be hiding out at.

Ashlie glanced down at her school uniform and as she looked back up to her friend, she began to explain "there has been some horrible mistake Tracy! They think I'm suppose to be here and..."

Once again Tracy interrupted Ashlie as she pointed out "those kids on the playground are dressed the same? Isn't this place a private school. Your in school?"

"yes. YES! This is a school and they think I belong here. There was some mixup and lets just say that they don't believe that I'm an adult! You got to help me Tracy!" Pleaded Ashlie as she looked over her shoulder to see if any of the nuns were coming.

Tracy gave a fictitious smile as she slightly giggled "your a student here? This is where you have been for the last few months. Here, in school?"

Ashlie pinched the bridge of her nose in annoyance as she admitted "yes I've been here. Not by my own choice though. I was forced to Tracy. Now if you could just..."

"you look sooo adorable in that uniform! It really fits you." interjected Tracy as she smirked down on Ashlie. Before Ashlie could get a word out, Tracy asked "what type of underwear do you have on?"

"what's it matter? Tracy, I really really need your help. You got to get me out of here." Answered Ashlie. She was feeling a bit nervous in the fact that Tracy wasn't taking her seriously.

"ooh come on Ashlie! What type of panties do you have on?" Replied Tracy with a smile.

Ashlie looked around to make sure no one was watching her talk to Tracy, before pulling up her jumper high enough for Tracy to see her panties. Even with the white tights on, Ashlie's white cotton panties with little yellow flowers were visible enough to see. "there, you happy?" Answered Ashlie with a bit of indifference to her voice.

Tracy's face lit up with excitement and she could barely contain her stifled giggling as she took in what she just saw. With a slight chuckle, Tracy admitted "those are girls panties Ashlie! Like actual children's undies."

"I know, I know. Like I was saying before, they think I'm a kid. I've been stuck here for three months now." Confessed Ashlie with redden cheeks.

Tracy let out a short series of giggles before clapping her hands together and saying "ooh my God. That is priceless."

"ha ha ha.....yeah, real priceless Tracy. You wouldn't be saying that if the shoe was on the other foot. Now you got to get me out of here. It's serious!" Pleaded Ashlie from the other side of the fence.

Tracy relaxed her body a bit and rested her hand to her hip. With a wicked smile, Tracy boasted "well, the shoe isn't on the other foot Ashlie. Now if you want my help, your going to have to answer a couple quick questions. Than I will see what I can do. Got it."

Ashlie's jaw dropped in a gasp as she countered "that's not fair! Come on Tracy, get me out of here! Any day now they could ship me out of here."

"ship you out of here? What, like summer camp or the girl scouts?" Joked Tracy.

Ashlie looked at Tracy and tears welled in her eyes as she sadly admitted "This is serious Tracy. For tell, you got to listen to me. they are going to send me to a different school. In the next county over. I need to get out of here before that happens!"

Tracy didn't know what to believe. she had been under the perception that her friend had been missing. Yet, here she was, dressed like a schoolgirl and messing around at some school. thinking that Ashlie was just exaggerating, Tracy mocked her by doing a sad face and saying "awww, are you scared that you might have to make new friends."

Ashlie was getting irritated that her friend was patronizing her and stomped her foot in anger as she said "This is not a joke Tracy! They really are going to send me to another SCHOOL! I'm not able to get out by myself and they won't let me out tell they think I'm 18! I need your help!"

Tracy looked Ashlie over and thought of something. She had never asked Ashlie what grade she was is. With a straight face Tracy asked "hey, what grade are you in?"

"seventh...." Mumbled Ashlie as looked away in shame.

Right away Tracy couldn't help but laugh out loud. As she leaned forward still giggling, she laughed "seventh grade! Your in seventh grade!"

Ashlie looked back at her friend not amused. As Tracy stood on the other side of the fence, she continued to laugh to herself. Ashlie was not being taken seriously at all, Tracy thought this was some big joke.

Ashlie waited tell the laughs died down, but was thrown off when Tracy asked "how long is recess?"

Ashlie knew that the break lasted only fifteen minutes, But without a watch she didn't know how much time was left. She sighed and answered "It's almost over Tracy.."

"what are you learning about? You getting good grades?" Interrupted Tracy with a smile.

"I don't know, seventh grade stuff. Math, English, and history? What's it matter, are you going to help me out Tracy?" Replied Ashlie anxiously.

Tracy ignored Ashlie's question and playfully joked "what about your grades....you didn't say anything about them? You passing the class."

Ashlie quickly replied "yes. It's easy. Now come on! I don't have much time!"

Ashlie pointed to the main gate and exclaimed "Tracy, Go! Come on and get me out of here. I don't know which county they are sending me to, but I will be stuck there once I go."

Tracy looked over to the main gate. She would no doubt have to go through them to get to the office. She planned on talking to the school, but once Ashlie had gone back into class. Passing on an opportunity like this would be foolish. She could drag out this fun for a few more minutes.

Tracy looked back to Ashlie and could see the inpatients in her body. She couldn't stay still. With a slight smile Tracy silently reached into her purse. As She dug through her purse for her cell phone, she asked "do you need to go potty?"

Ashlie, having a enough of Tracy's crap, barked "I don't need to go POTTY!"

Tracy held back a laugh as she seen some girls on the field look over to them. Ashlie had been loud enough that they heard the word "potty". Tracy looked down to Ashlie and said "your friends heard you, turn and wave so they think everything is alright."

Without thinking about it, Ashlie turned around and began waving to the three girls. As they seen Ashlie waving, they waved back.

"hello Ashlie!" Remarked one of the girls.

"Hello Joy." Replied Ashlie.

One of the other girls called out "lets play tag Ashlie! Come on!"

Ashlie gave out a fake laugh and responded "maybe later Candice!" As she continued to wave.

"those your friends?" Asked Tracy.

"I guess?......no...yeah? I mean, they don't pick on me. So they kind of....are my friends." Puzzled Ashlie. They really had been the closes thing to being friends. As Ashlie turned to face Tracy, she was greeted to a cell phone pointed right at her.

"I got that whole conversation." Said Tracy as she watched the video.

"erase that Tracy!" Pleaded Ashlie as she heard her voice over the cell phone speaker.

Tracy looked up from her cellphone to see that the girls had started to come their way. "looks like we have company." Responded Tracy with a smile.

Ashlie was expecting it to be a nun, but was a little less stressed to see that it was Candice, Joy, and Erin.

As the girls got closer, Candice smiled and asked "who is your friend Ashlie?"

Ashlie was about to answer, but Tracy falsely admitted "I'm Tracy, a friend of Ashlie's older sister. And you are?"

"Candice! This is Joy and Erin. And were Ashlie's best friends!" Boasted Candice as she stood next to Ashlie.

Ashlie's face redden with humiliation as the three girls stood around her. All three were a little bit taller than her and now Tracy was going to see that.

"smile!" Announced Tracy, given the girls enough time to react to getting their picture taken. Ashlie was the only one in the picture who wasn't smiling.

"what are you doing here?" Asked Erin as she did a playful hop up and down.

Tracy gave the girls a smile as she admitted "well, I'm here for Ashlie. She should be going home today."

Right away Ashlie's heart skipped a beat. Tracy was going to help her out. She had just been fucking with her the whole time. With a new sign of hope, Ashlie smiled big and proudly announced "yeah I am."

All three girls closed in on Ashlie for a hug and confessed "were going to miss you!"

Tracy took a picture and this time Ashlie was smiling big. As she tucked her phone back into her purse she asked "say girls, could I ask you something?"

"yes!" Answered Joy as the other two nodded in agreement.

"does Ashlie get in a lot of trouble?" Questioned Tracy with much amusement.

Ashlie didn't like the question and worried once Candice said "she use to when she got here. She was always telling the sisters that she was an adult...."

"and she got spanked for trying to escape." Interpreted Joy with all honesty.

Ashlie lowered her head in shame. She could have done without Tracy hearing that.

"she got spanked!" Patronized Tracy as she fished for more information "It sounds like she was being a bad girl. Just that once though, right?"

"more than once!" Confessed Erin as she looked over to Ashlie.

Ashlie could feel everyone's eyes on her as she kept her head down in embarrassment. She was never going to live this down.

Tracy looked at Ashlie and in a mock scolding said "bad Ashlie. Wait tell your mother hears about this. Your going to be in so much trouble."

"Well, thank you girls. But I've got to talk to Ashlie a little bit more before recess ends. So if you ladies could give us a minute." Said Tracy with a smile.

The whole group responded in unison as the waved and said goodbye. Once they were far enough away, Tracy joked "you got spanked?"

"yes...." Ashlie sighed as she kicked the ground with her foot.

"with a paddle? Belt?" Questioned Tracy with a slight giggle.

Ashlie heaved another sigh and confessed "Hand, bare bottom. Over the knee."

Tracy began laughing uncontrollably as she pictured her friend over a nuns knee. The image was almost to much to bear. Once Tracy's laughs subsided into slight giggles she said "now I've heard it all. Ashlie, your to much."

Ashlie looked up to Tracy and replied "yeah, to much. So you going to get me out of here? For real?"

Tracy nodded in agreement and replied "yeah. I planned on it. I was just having some fun. Wouldn't you?"

Ashlie knew right away that if they were switched, that she would have had some fun as well. "yeah I would." Admitted Ashlie as she shrugged her shoulders.

It was just seconds into the awkward silence where the conversation had taken place, when the school bell rang above the school doors. Ashlie turned and looked at all the girls, who were now matching back to class. No doubt she should be there with them.

"recess is over!" gloated Tracy as she watched the kids form in a straight line.

Ashlie looked back to Tracy and acknowledged "I know. I heard the bell Tracy."

"Ashlie! Ashlie miles. Come on and get in line!" Yelled a nun from across the school yard.

"Shit. I got to go." mumbled Ashlie before she finished "go into the school and get me out Tracy, OK?"

"ASHLIE!" Yelled the nun again.

Tracy looked up at the nun, who now was on a path towards them and said "get going, I will go in the school and see what I can do."

Ashlie gratefully smiled and replied "thank you!" As she turned around and headed back to the school.

Tracy watched Ashlie walk away and meet the nun half way through the field. Without any warning, the nun grabbed Ashlie by the ear and preceded to pull her along towards the school. Tracy could hear her friend squeal in pain as the nun pulled her along. "dam.." Tracy said to herself as she thought about how painful that must of been.

Once all the kids were inside the building and a nun closed the door, Tracy began her way to the front of the school. She thought about what she would say to the administration as she walked up the steps. She needed to prove that Ashlie wasn't really a kid and that this was just a simple misunderstanding.
         As Tracy walking into the lobby of the school, she noticed a door that said "office" and walked right in. It was kind of weird since every employee was a nun. They all wore the traditional habit from head to toe. Which kind of made them hard to tell apart.

"can I help you?" Said a nun from behind a desk.

Tracy cleared her throat as she walked over to the desk and admitted "I'm here to sign someone out? I think this is where I need to go, right?"

The nun smiled at Tracy and began to gather a couple of papers together. As she placed them on a clipboard she said "your in the right place. Who are you here for?"

Tracy excepted the clipboard from the sister and as she took a pen she countered "Ashlie miles."

The nun was a little taken back and acknowledged "Ashlie miles huh. We've been trying to find her family for a couple months now. Are you her mother? Older sister?"

Tracy looked the paper over and honest replied "nether. I'm actually a friend."

"well, only family or a legal guardian can sign her out of school. Not friends." Confessed the nun from behind the desk.

Tracy looked up from the clipboard and explained "well, it seems that there has been some kind of mistake. Ashlie has been missing for three months and we didn't know where she was. She actually isn't suppose to be here. She's an adult and...."

The nun quickly interrupted "how did you find out she was here?"

Tracy was thrown off by the question and answered "I didn't know she was here. I was walking by and she noticed me and got my attention."

The nun sat back in her chair and countered "than she asked you for help, and to lie for her."

"no, no she didn't." Tracy snapped back.

The nun reached forward and grabbed the clipboard back as she said "she tried this stunt before. Asking strangers to lie for her. I know for a fact that she's not an adult. So don't bother."

"she is an adult! I can prove it." Replied Tracy as she reached into her purse and pulled out her cell phone. The nun watched as Tracy pushed a couple buttons than held the phone up for her to see. Tracy had gone to Ashlie's YouTube channel and clicked a video. The nun looked at the phone and watched as a young woman introduced herself. Tracy didn't consider that Ashlie used a fake name for her videos and as her friend introduced herself as "Marylin sorrows", Tracy knew this wasn't going to work.

The nun looked up from the phone and stated "that's not her. They look alike though, but this ladies name is Marylin. Not Ashlie."

"no, It's her sister. She uses a fake name..." countered Tracy with a hint of annoyance.

The nun set the clipboard down on her desk and replied "tell me, how many adults wet the bed?"

Tracy was somewhat puzzled by the nuns remark and answered "none, I guess? I mean, there probably is some, but not many."

"Did Ashlie or this Marylin, wet the bed? Was she a bed wetter?" Questioned the sister.

"No....She doesn't wet the bed." Confided Tracy, not knowing what the nun was getting at.

The nun smiled to herself and declared "Than I know your lying for her. Ashlie Miles has to wear nighttime protection because she wets the bed still."

Tracy's jaw dropped in shock. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Tracy had a puzzled look on her face as she remarked "she wets the bed? Are you sure?"

The nun nodded yes and stated "not every night, mainly when she first got here, but she does from time to time still."

Tracy was blown away. That didn't sound like her friend at all. She had known Ashlie since they were little and the only time she had wet the bed was when she was stressed out. Stressed out. That was it! She was wetting because of the stress of this place. Knowing that her luck was next to none on getting Ashlie out, Tracy nicely inquired "so only her family can get her out? Do they need a special form or any paperwork?"

The nun pulled the papers from the clipboard and began to write on a sticky note. As she handed them over to Tracy she informed "These will need to be filled out and her legal guardians will need to bring identification and Ashlie's birth certificate. The sticky note is the address to the school she will be at. So they will have to take it there. Not here."

Once Tracy looked the sticky note over, she knew Ashlie wasn't exaggerating on needing to get out. She quickly looked up to the nun and asked "Do you know when she will be going? I could go to her parents house and get them. They live about an hour away."

The nun gestured over to a door in the office and as Tracy looked over the nun said "The social worker is in there right now. He's signing the paper work as we speak. Once he's done, she's gone."

Tracy was out of time. She frantically looked to the nun and asked "could I talk to him? Like five minutes. Five minutes, that's all I ask."

The nun shook her head no and replied "I'm sorry you can't. She belongs to the state and the only people that can claim her are her parents or guardians. So if can, get those forms to her parents."

Tracy looked the papers over and sighed. She wasn't going to be able to get Ashlie out today. She now felt bad about all the teasing on the playground and knew deep down that she had to make things right. She was going to have to go to Ashlie's moms house. Tracy glanced up to the nun and said "fine. Have a good day." Before walking out of the office. As she left the school grounds she took a second to look back at the school and whispered "I'm going to get you Ashlie. Just hang in there."

Ashlie was sitting at her desk, not listening to a word sister Claire was saying. Once they got back from recess Claire went back to having the class learn long division. How could Ashlie pay attention to math when help was on the way. she was going to get out of there. Free. Free to run and do what she wants. It could be any second. With all of her excitement, Ashlie couldn't help but look to the door when someone walked by. After figuring it wasn't for her, she would check the clock than back to the door.

"Is everything alright Ashlie?" Called out sister Claire. She had taken notice that Ashlie was not even close to paying attention.

Ashlie looked up to the nun and with a smile responded "I'm alright sister Claire."

The nun than responded "well, than why don't you come up here and solve this math problem for us. I will help you through the steps."

Ashlie silently slid out of her desk and made her way to the front of the classroom. Sister Claire had already written a simple math problem on the chalkboard for her to solve. Ashlie picked up the chalk and began solving the simple problem.

"the answer is three, sister Claire." Said Ashlie as she set the chalk down on the board. She felt good, knowing that she wouldn't have to ever do this math again. What was one last time.

"you solved that fast." Came a voice from the doorway.

Ashlie, along with sister Claire and the whole class, turned their heads to see the head mistress standing in the doorway.

In unison, the whole class said "good morning sister lacy."

The head mistress smiled as she took a playful step forward and replied "well, good morning class. Its good to see that you girls are doing so well."

The mistress turned to sister Claire and declared "I've come to collect Ashlie Miles."

Ashlie couldn't believe that her time was now. It seemed like a dream. Right away she began shaking with excitement and felt butterflies well up in her stomach. This was happening. She was getting out of there.

Sister Claire turned to Ashlie, who was still standing at the chalkboard, and said "Ashlie, go put your books away and than go with mistress lacy."

Ashlie didn't move at first, her mind was set on overdrive. After a couple seconds of silence she nodded in agreement and nervously walked to her desk. She could feel all of the girls eyes on her as she lifted the top of her desk and slid her math book inside. A very creepy feeling to say the least.

"I'm going to miss you...." Sighed Candice.

Ashlie turned to Candice and smiled "I'm going to miss you to. Everything will be alright Candice. Believe in that."

Ashlie stood up and felt anxious. She was going home and who knew what she has missed in the past 90 days. As she walked back to mistress lacy, she waved goodbye to the class. She would never see them again. Walking down the hallway of Saint Marys, Ashlie looked over the decor. She had seen it all countless times before, but now it all looked fake. As they neared the administration office, Ashlie felt high with euphoria. this was truly happening.
           Mistress lacy held the door open for Ashlie. She walked right in the office and expected to see Tracy waiting For her. She wasn't anywhere to be seen though. Nervously, Ashlie glanced around the office to see if she was just sitting in a chair. Still no Tracy to be seen. The only person in the office besides the nuns was a man in his mid 40's.

"This must be Ashlie Miles." Said the man as he walked up to great her.

Ashlie looked the man over and spotted a plastic clip-on badge that read "social services". Right away her heart sank and she thought she was going to vomit. The man was here to take her away, but where was Tracy? a little uneasy that something happen or Tracy just didn't come in, Ashlie nervously said "I thought my friend was coming to get me?"

The mistress looked down on Ashlie and answered "She came in, but we turned her away child. Getting people to lie for you is not good. You know how we feel about liars."

The head mistress than turned to the man and explained "Ashlie here, has had.....a rather creative imagination. She likes to spin stories about being a adult. Don't let her fool you though."

As mistress lacy and the social worker started laughing to themselves, Ashlie began to tear up and cry. They were mocking her very existence. Ashlie really was an adult. She was 21 and no matter how much she tried to prove otherwise, no one believed her. As tears rolled down her cheeks she sobbed "I'm telling the truth....."

                                          The end

The audition ch 2

The audition 2

"but my sister should be home soon" whined Ashlie as she was pulled out of the apartment.

"don't worry about her. I will." miss Campbell said as she pulled Ashlie along.

As they got to the bottom of the stairs Joshua open the apartment complex door and miss Campbell rudely barked "excuse me." As she pulled Ashlie along.

Josh began waking up the steps and stopped. Was that his girlfriend with that woman? Couldn't be. She was dressed like a child.

Joshua looked out the apartment complex door and seen miss Campbell strapping Ashlie into a booster seat. It was his girlfriend! As he raced down the steps miss Campbell drove off. Leaving Josh at curb confused.

A waiter walked up to the table and said, "good evening miss."

Miss Campbell looked at the man and replied, "bring me chicken strips, broccoli, Apple sauce, and a cup of milk."

"that's it?" asked the waiter.

"no. Bring me a lobster tail, grilled asparagus and an Apple martini. Oh! And could you being her a booster seat. The tables to high." miss Campbell ordered.

As the waiter walked away miss Campbell looked at Ashlie and joked "If your a good little girl I will give you a bite of lobster."

Ashlie sighed and when she looked over she went white with fear. Josh had followed them to the restaurant.

Josh walked up to the table and said, "what on earth are.."

Ashlie cut him off from finishing his sentence. "miss Campbell, this is my uncle Josh. I call him uncie Josh. He's getting married to my sister Ashlie."

Ashlie looked up to Josh and childishly exclaimed "I auditions with the kids and was chosen, and now I'm going to be famous! Isn't that exciting! Isn't that wonderful... Uncle Josh!"

Josh looked at Ashlie confused and and hesitantly replied "ooh, oh no.."

Ashlie smiled big and replied "I got it!", than looked at miss Campbell and continued "see he doesn't think I should do it, but I did. Him and my sister had a big fight Last night. But if you say anything uncie Josh I will never talk to you again. Never ever, and I will be so mad. So there." As she stuck her tongue out at him.

The waiter walked up and asked Josh "anything for you?"

"double whiskey on the rocks please." Replied Josh as he took a seat at the table.

"why don't you take my key and go home. Ashlie will be there soon." stated Ashlie nervously.

"well, I would like to ask you something Josh?" interrupted miss Campbell.

"what." moaned Josh.

"why is it that you disapprove of Annie paying music?" asked miss Campbell.

"cause I don't think Ashlie should play." Josh replied.

"Ashlie no. I'm talking about Annie here." answered miss Campbell as she motioned to Ashlie.

"Annie?" Josh said as he looked at Ashlie.

Josh looked at miss Campbell and asked "could I talk to...Annie. Its about...her wetting problem..."

Miss Campbell leaned back in her chair and said "well it would be good if we all talked. Ashlie, you, Annie and me. Get this settled one and for all."

Ashlie not knowing what to do said "why don't you call her miss. Campbell! She might be home."

Miss Campbell nodded and stood up before going to the bar to use the phone.

"don't look at me like that Josh. You don't think I like this do you? Wearing kids clothes and being baby talked by everyone around. Being forced to ride in a God dam booster seat." Ashlie complained.

"did you know it was a kids contest? Did you go into it knowing?" Asked Josh.

Ashlie lowered her head in shame and confessed "yes."

"I thought you would say that. Taking futures from little kids. That's low." Replied Josh as he shook his head at Ashlie in disbelief.

"I didn't take anything from nobody. Please don't give me up Josh. All I wanted was to be heard. And I got a contract out of it. A five year contract." explained Ashlie as she looked around.

"you can't do it. You got a kids contract Ashlie. Its for kids, not adults" argued Josh.

"yes kids contract. But I get to play music." Ashlie said before she noticed the waiter coming. With a booster seat and the drink Josh ordered.

Ashlie nervously hoped off the chair as the waiter set the booster seat down. As she climbed into the plastic booster seat the waiter handed Josh his drink.

As Josh went to take a sip Ashlie grabbed the drink from his hands and cursed "I need this more than you." And took a healthy sip of the whiskey.

Ashlie was unaware that the waiter was looking over his shoulder and seen the whole thing. In a hurry the waiter rushed out and told miss Campbell about what had just happen.

"give me a puff of your smoke. Its been all day since I've had one and I'm going crazy." Ashlie disclosed as she took a drag from Josh's smoke. She seen miss Campbell walking over in a hurry and didn't exhale in fear of being caught.

"did you just give her a drink? Open you're mouth Annie. Let me smell your breath, come on, open." ordered miss Campbell.

Ashlie wouldn't open her mouth and that's when miss Campbell pushed her cheeks and Ashlie let out a cloud of smoke and loud cough.

"you monster!" exclaimed miss Campbell as she grabbed her drink and tossed into Josh's face.

Without warning miss Campbell grabbed Ashlie and pulled her off the booster seat and towards the door in anger.

"JOSH!" Ashlie screamed as she was pulled along and out to the car.

By the time Josh got the liqueur out of his eyes, Ashlie was gone.

From the booster seat in the back of the car, Ashlie protested "you had no right to do that. He didn't give me the drink, I took it. And..and the cigarette, I took that to."

Miss Campbell looked in the rearview mirror and asked "does your sister know you drink and smoke?"

Ashlie nervously adjusted herself in the booster seat and hesitantly replied "ooh of course she does....Say where we going? My apartment is the other way."

Miss Campbell replied "were going to my house on the edge of town. It will do you some good."

Ashlie didn't like the sound of that and replied "you can't do that! You can't just....take me off away from my family."

"dear child, If I wanted to I could take you away from them for good. I can prove that their unfit guardians for you. Than my lawyers would go to court and I would adopt you." answered miss Campbell smugly.

"oh no your wrong miss Campbell. There wonderful to me. They take great care of me. They really do." replied Ashlie from the booster seat.

Miss Campbell looked in the mirror and said "I'm sure they do." as she and Ashlie went silent.

Ashlie remained silent as she sat in her booster seat and reflected back on the days events. It was simply mind blowing how fast things had spun out of control. As miss Campbell drove through a gate she proudly announced "were here Annie!"

As she got out of the car, miss Campbell was greeted by two white poodles and they both followed her to Ashlie's side of the car. Miss Campbell open the door and leaned in to unbuckle Ashlie from the booster seat.

"here we are Annie" said miss Campbell with excitement as she lifted Ashlie from the booster seat and stood her up outside of the car.

Ashlie followed miss Campbell silently to the door of the house where they were greeted by Mrs. Morgan. The head maid.

"Mrs. Morgan, this is Annie miles. The one I was telling you about. She's going to be staying with us for a bit." cautioned miss Campbell.

"OK miss, and to let you know, Charlie has been calling for you. Would you like some company tonight." reported Mrs. Morgan.

"no it's OK. We both have had a long day and I think I would like a drink." countered miss Campbell as she took Ashlie's arm and said "come on Annie. I got something to show you!"

Ashlie was guided into the living room and was amazed at the fireplace, which was epic. The fireplace was all stone and super wide with a solid oak mantle. All the couches were white leather and screamed expensive.

Miss Campbell let Ashlie's arm go and motioned to the widow where a brand new guitar and amp sat. As Ashlie looked at the guitar miss Campbell looked to her mini bar and covered it with a napkin so Ashlie wouldn't see.

Ashlie was amazed at the sight of the guitar and inquired "Is that for me?"

Miss Campbell smiled and replied, "yes Annie. It's for you. I had it signed this morning by Miley Cyrus. You know, I was the one who first signed her for Disney. I've actually found a few major roles for other people as well."

Ashlie excitedly walked up to the guitar and picked it up to look. She hated Miley Cyrus but knew she had to act interested in the gift. The guitar read "to my number one fan! Love Miley."

Ashlie didn't let miss Campbell see her eyes as she rolled than. She couldn't stand Miley Cyrus or Katy Perry. They were so fake. Ashlie was more into old rock and metal. As Ashlie looked the guitar over, miss Campbell did see that Annie looked pretty excited. Than miss Campbell noticed Annie looking at the liqueur bar.

Miss Campbell frowned and walked over to her bar and stated covering bottles. As she turned back around she grabbed Ashlie's arm and announced "well it's time for beddy bye. I will show you the rest in the morning." as she walked Ashlie to the staircase.

As Ashlie took a couple steps up, miss Campbell stopped and said, "oh, I think I should get ahold of your sister."

Ashlie panicked and grabbed miss Campbell's hand and replied "oh no. You see...you see..she's probably out bar hoping. She drinks when she gets mad. So she might not be home."

"she shouldn't be bar hoping at this hour. She should be home with you." mentioned miss Campbell.

"you don't know my sister. One night she was so mad...she...she...she drank up the whole bar. They had to go clear to Russia to get more vodka." Ashlie mused in a very childish nature.

Miss Campbell looked at her and smiled. It seemed that Annie had quiet an imagination on her."come on Annie, I will show you to your room." replied miss Campbell as she started walking up the stairs with Ashlie.

Miss Campbell opened the bedroom door and said "here we are!" as she moved aside to let Annie in.

Right away Ashlie was thrown back. The room was decorated for a little girl. The walls were a soft purple and all the furniture was white. The bed had a pink canopy and the blankets were even Pinker. There was stuffed animals and dolls everywhere. Everything a little girl could ever want.

"I know what your thinking and no I didn't have this done for you. My two nieces come to stay with me in the summer and this is their room, but you could take it over tell than. Besides, they possibly out grown the decor. Their both twelve and thirteen. Just a little older than you Annie. Isn't that cool?" stated miss Campbell as she looked the room over.

Ashlie turned around and faced miss Campbell. Up until know they haven't discussed age or anything about it. No one asked? Puzzled, Ashlie asked "how...do you know my age? You never asked?"

Miss Campbell walked over to a dresser and looked in the drawers as she blindly answered "It was in the contracts dear. January eleventh, 2005. Making you ten years old."

Ashlie remembered writing that date down and did the math in her head. Placing her just a little over ten years old. "fuck." Ashlie mumbled to herself as she realized that miss Campbell was right about her fake age.

"you will find a new toothbrush in the bathroom and there are clothes in the dresser. I believe there's still a couple pairs of nite nite pants in the top drawer, but tomorrow I will send Morgan out for more." Informed miss Campbell.

"nite nite pants?" pondered Ashlie as she never heard the term used before. She right away pictured some panties made for sleeping. Or some type of pajama pants she was unaware of.

Miss Campbell nodded and explained "their so I don't have to buy a new mattress. Your uncle mentioned something about wetting problem? and, well you need to wear them to bed. That's until I know for sure you don't wet."

Ashlie blushed beet red with embarrassment as miss Campbell explained what they were. The nite nite pants was a delicate way of saying training pants. when Josh was trying to get her alone at the restaurant, he did say something along the lines. She didn't wet the bed though. Not in years that is. Ashlie sighed and knew it was something she would have to deal with. After all, it couldn't be that bad. She didn't need them. Ashlie started looking around the room and noticed a phone by the bed.

"go ahead and get ready for bed dear. I got a couple things to attend to." mentioned miss. Campbell as she walked to the door.

As soon as Ashlie seen she was out of sight, she raced to the phone and picked it up and dialed for Josh. After a couple of rings Ashlie thought she heard someone coming and hung up in a hurry.

Miss Campbell walked into the room and said "I almost forgot, use the potty before bed Annie. That will help not wet the bed."

Miss Campbell suddenly found herself startled as the phone rang.

Both Ashlie and miss Campbell reached for the phone but miss Campbell snagged it out of Ashlie's hands and answered. Right away miss Campbell hung up and looked confused. "wrong number I guess....I'm going to take this with me so it doesn't wake you." Announced miss Campbell as she unhooked the phone from the wall. She nodded to Annie and walked out of the room.

Ashlie sighed. She needed to get ahold of Josh and let him know where she was.

Miss Campbell walked down stairs and picked up her cell phone and called Charlie. As she was talking, Mrs. Morgan walked by with a tray and miss Campbell stopped her. "set that here. I got it." She said with authority.

After a brief talk with Charlie that went nowhere, miss Campbell addressed Mrs. Morgan "Annie tells a good story, most of it lies, but I'm going to make her a star. So we need to be civil to her. But don't give in to her games."

"OK miss Campbell." answered Mrs Morgan as she walked off.

Meanwhile, Ashlie had gotten dressed in what pajamas she could find. Going as far as putting on the training pants miss Campbell had suggested.

The little girl pajamas were a pink flannel two piece set with little colored hearts all over. After pulling on the top, Ashlie found they actually fit her pretty well. The training pants were another story. They were a size to big and poked out of the top of the waistband of the pajama bottoms as she laid on the bed. As Ashlie flipped through the pages of the magazine, she found she had to keep pulling her pajama top down just to keep the waistband covered. As Ashlie laid on her stomach and cleaved through the magazine she opened her legs a little and went back to close them. That's when she noticed the thickness of the padding. It was oddly like having a throw pillow between her legs.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door and Ashlie pulled her pajama top down over her bottoms before looking up from her teen beet magazine and saying "who is it?"

"It's miss Campbell dear. I brought some warn milk."

"could you leave it by the door?" called Ashlie from the bed. Unintentionally she began opening and closing her legs. The padding from the training pants was snug against her vagina and as she moved her legs apart, it softly rubbed her clit. A weird feeling to say the least, but good at the same time.

"I rather not. Plus I need to talk to you." miss Campbell insisted as she walked in and looked at Annie on the bed.

"you look rather comfy." she said as she set the milk on the night stand.

"thank you. Good night..." Replied Ashlie as she didn't want to be seen dressed like this.

Miss Campbell sat on the bed and said "I tried for your sister but no one answered. Funny. Say, open your mouth I just noticed something?"

Hesitantly Ashlie open her mouth and miss Campbell took a look at her teeth. "your going to need braces. I know a good orthodontist." said miss Campbell.

"I don't need braces!" exclaimed Ashlie as she leaned up on her elbows.

"well, that's debatable. But that's not what I was coming to talk to you about. When a person trains to become something say like a football player, or in your case, a musician. they have to give up certain things." hinted miss Campbell.

"oh...like what?" puzzled Ashlie as she tried to read what miss Campbell was thinking.

"well, like the smokes and booze honey." honestly reckoned miss Campbell.

"oh." Responded Ashlie as she laid back down and pulled her pajama top down over the training pant that was clearly peaking out.

Miss Campbell ran her hand across Ashlie's cheek and asked "how did you start? If you don't mind me asking."

Ashlie turned her head to the side to face away as she explained "It was a boy....and he dared me. Than I got hooked."

"Annie. you need to give it up child. it's no good. Both physical and mental. Give it up know before it really gets ahold of you." miss Campbell voiced with concern.

"you....you mean you want me to quit?" sassed Ashlie as she flipped the page of the magazine in front of her.

Miss Campbell got sympathetic and said "Annie. I will help you. I will do anything to help."

"you will?" sputtered Ashlie as she leaned back up on her elbows.

"yes" miss Campbell replied.

Ashlie leaned up to a sitting position and sat on the bed. "will you quit to? Along with me?" Asked Ashlie. She knew she was going to be pushing miss Campbell into a tough corner.

"what?" puzzled miss Campbell. Being caught off guard by Annie's sudden request.

"Well if it hurts me, than it must hurt you to? Right?" Harassed Ashlie as she watched miss Campbell's facial expression change.

Miss Campbell fought for worlds as she explained "well, I mean its different for me. I'm to old to quit."

"I understand. You can't. Or won't." responded Ashlie as she flopped backward onto the bed. She realized that the waistband of the training pants had made its way above the pajama bottoms once more and quickly pulled her shirt down.

Miss Campbell bit her thumb and stood up. "OK Annie. I will quit with you. We both won't drink or smoke." Swore miss Campbell as she held her hand up for a scouts honor.

"you mean it!" Ashlie exclaimed. She couldn't believe miss Campbell caved in at her request.

"first thing tomorrow I will give it up. I will toss it all out. I promise." noted miss Campbell.

As she smiled at Annie she looked her pajama set over. It was cute and fit her well. Miss Campbell noticed the training pant peaking out of Annie's waistband and knew that she would be able to pass Annie off as Americas new sweet heart.

Ashlie excitedly jumped off the bed and exclaimed "oh no! Lets do it right now! Give me your smokes!"

Miss Campbell hesitantly dug through her jacket pocket and handed Ashlie a pack. Ashlie quickly patted miss Campbell's pockets and found another pack along with some pot.

"oh my miss Campbell! Why are you carrying spices in a bag?" Fished Ashlie as she dropped the smokes and pot into the cup of milk.

"no, why?" fretted miss Campbell as she looked at her stuff in the glass of milk.

"now? How about your room?" squealed Ashlie as she unexpectedly ran out the bedroom door in a hurry.

Miss Campbell rushed out after Annie and yelled "NO! DON'T!"

In miss Campbell's room Ashlie found another pack of cigarettes and tossed them out the window. "now that's better!" Ashlie smiled as she dusted her hands for effect. She was going to drive miss Campbell crazy.

Miss Campbell got irritated and crossed her arms but didn't have enough time to vent as Ashlie shrieked "oh the liqueur!", and ran out the door in a flash.

Ashlie was almost to the bottom of the stairs when miss Campbell took her first step down after her.

As Ashlie got to the bar miss Campbell cried "what are you going to do!"

Ashlie pulled a trash can to the bar and began dropping the bottles into the trash as miss Campbell pleaded "what are you going to do with them?"

"throw them away!" Responded Ashlie as she piled them into the trash can.

"no, not that bottle Annie! That's hundred year old brandy!" requested miss Campbell as Ashlie began handing her bottles of booze to hold.

Without warning Ashlie took off to the door with the trash and what she could carry. "follow me!" cheered Ashlie.

As miss Campbell got to the door she fretted, "come on Annie, be reasonable!"

Ashlie dumped the bottles into the pool and tossed what miss Campbell was holding in a hurry.

"well, Here goes that brandy!" piped Ashlie as she tossed the bottle into the pool.

For the first Time in years miss Campbell felt like crying. She loved her alcohol.

"There now. Don't you feel better!" proclaimed Ashlie as bratty as could be.

"just great.....", mumbled miss Campbell as she slumped her shoulders and headed back to the house sadly.

Ashlie looked at all the bottles in the pool. She didn't take the caps off a couple of them and they remained floating about. Better stash one or two, thought Ashlie as she looked around.

The next morning after breakfast, Ashlie was practicing on guitar as miss Campbell watched. Her mind wasn't on Annie though, she wanted a cigarette. Miss Campbell got up and paced the room as Ashlie watched and played. Watching her every move, Ashlie followed miss Campbell with her eyes as she walked over to a case and looked for her E-cigarette. Once miss Campbell couldn't find it Ashlie smiled to herself. She had snagged it without miss Campbell even knowing.

Ashlie stopped playing guitar and miss Campbell said "that was fine. Just great honey. Your going to be a star." as she walked towards the kitchen.

Ashlie began to follow but was stopped when miss Campbell firmly responded "Its fine dear, I'm getting a drink of water."

As miss Campbell left the room Ashlie darted to the first phone she could find and dialed a number.

"what are you looking for?" asked Mrs Morgan as miss Campbell entered the kitchen.

"cigarettes." moaned miss Campbell.

"I bought a carton once this week already?" Playfully chimed Mrs. Morgan before she continued "Annie had me throw them out though. Said you don't need them around?"

Miss Campbell looked pist as she inquired "where did she throw them?"

"garbage disposal." laughed Mrs. Morgan as she began needing dough on the counter.

"as long as I've been in this business I thought if I could just find a child prodigy I would be golden. I pictured some sweet little girl, who's nice and passive, but this girl is a brat. A real brat." confessed miss. Campbell.

"She certainly is a wild one. Looking at her, you would think she's the sweetest girl ever. Its a whole other thing when she opens her mouth." Laughed Mrs Morgan as she kept needing the dough.

"Mrs. Morgan you have little girls. Wouldn't you say this girl is extremely obnoxious. Are yours like that? She's ruining wild and doing what she wants. Is it me or am I right?" miss Campbell asked.

"yeah she is a pre-diva, but mine get spankings and listen when told what to do. I've learned if you cave in to everything they want, than they won't respect you. If you give them everything and do everything for them. Their the boss. Not in my household. I'm the boss. You want her to listen than you got to say no from time to time." huffed Mrs. Morgan.

"alright alright. I get it. Be the adult." said miss Campbell as she headed out of the kitchen.

Ashlie was playing with her hair as she talked on the phone when she heard miss Campbell coming. Quickly Ashlie hung up and picked up a teen beet magazine.

"I'm going to the store for a minute Annie" said miss Campbell as she picked up her purse.

"bye." Ashlie mumbled under her breath as she waved.

As miss Campbell grabbed her keys she said "why don't you come with me? Get a breath of fresh air before lunch. You've been inside all day."

Ashlie sighed thinking about the booster seat in the car. It was like being strapped into a rocketship. The booster seat was comfy and if it wasn't for the fact that miss Campbell insisted on picking Ashlie up every time, it wouldn't be half bad. Ashlie sighed and replied "I've got to practice."

Miss Campbell grabbed Ashlie's hand and answered "no. I insist. The break will be good for you. And it wouldn't hurt to listen when an adult tells you something."

Ashlie frowned. She knew she was gonna have to ride in the booster seat no matter what. The last part of miss Campbell's sentence had thrown her a little off guard. She sensed a bit of hostility in it. Ashlie let miss Campbell lead her out and to the car, where she picked up and placed into the booster seat again.

As miss Campbell pulled up to the store front, Ashlie pulled at the booster seat strap. She couldn't reach the release button though. She hated that thing. The strap was purposely buckled in a place she couldn't reach.

"stay here honey. I will be right back." miss Campbell snapped as she watched Annie struggle with the booster seat. Ashlie stopped fidgeting and crossed her arms definitely. Ashlie watched miss Campbell get out and walked into the store.

"fuck this. This is stupid." Ashlie huffed as she reached as hard as she could to the buckle on the side of the seat. After a couple attempts, Ashlie managed to get the buckle. She got out of the booster seat and open the car door. As she walked into the store she saw miss Campbell at the counter and noticed the clerk handing her two packs of cigarettes.

Ashlie smiled to herself as miss Campbell was caught off guard. "oh, I was just getting some change" lied miss Campbell.

Miss Campbell passed the smokes back and corrected "sorry you must have heard wrong. I said two packs of gum. Gum, not cigarettes."

The guy handed her two packs of gum and the change before going back to what he was doing.

"wonderful thing chewing gum. Helps quit" smiled miss Campbell as she pulled a stick out and put it in her mouth.

Ashlie smiled, knowing she was full of shit.

"why don't you look around for something honey? I got to make a call." miss Campbell suggested as she handed Ashlie some money.

As Ashlie looked around she noticed a pay phone and began walking towards it. Ashlie's attention was drawn away from the phone when she heard someone whistling at her. Angrily Ashlie turned to see who was making the cat call and was confused to see it was a young boy.

Ashlie gave a big smile and nicely said "hello" to the boy as she kept walking towards the phone.

Ashlie was almost to the phone when the boy replied "your cute! What school do you go to?"

Ashlie looked over her shoulder and replied "sorry, I got a boy friend."

Ashlie smiled to herself as she picked up the phone and called Josh. He didn't answer so she left a message for him before hanging up.

Ashlie looked at miss Campbell and smugly smiled as an idea vane to mind. She picked the phone back up and dialed her number.

Miss Campbell's phone went off and she dug through her purse until she found it. She didn't recognize the number but answered anyway.

"hello? Miss Campbell speaking."

"well hello. I heard you took my little sister away last night?" Ashlie said as adult as could be.

"under the circumstances it was the proper thing to do. We're at my place on the edge of town."miss Campbell said as she looked at a clock on the wall.

"well let me ask, don't you think she's going to be lonely, that poor little thing." fished Ashlie.

"I'm perfectly alright with you wanting to see her anytime you like Mrs. miles. You after all are her guardian. But the way she is living isn't fair." stated miss Campbell.

"huh, that's nice of you, but I'm going out of town for the week. So maybe you can hold on to her tell than. However, I would like my fiancee Josh to come see her." Ashlie said.

"flat out no. He can't. I had a run in with him last night and he is a very bad influence. That I won't permit." sternly spoke miss Campbell.

"permit? What do you mean permit? You don't got a say in it?" Ashlie said defensively.

"well I got a lot to say about it. He's not a legal guardian unless you two got married. And I will say it in court if I have to. You give her booze. She told me. I watched him give Annie whiskey and a drag off his smoke. He's not to be here." threatened miss Campbell as she looked around.

"he's not that bad. I say its alright." Ashlie argued.

"and I will take you to court as well. You will lose custody of Annie." miss Campbell coldly stated.

"your such a bitch. I've never met someone like you before. Fuck you." Ashlie huffed in rage.

"want to talk to Annie? She's right here." miss Campbell asked half heartily.

"don't bother. Give her a message for me." Ashlie responded.

"what?"

"tell her she's to punch you right into the tits you mean fuck." barked Ashlie before hanging the payphone up.

As Ashlie walked away from the payphone miss Campbell walked up to her and said, "I just got a call from your sister."

"and?" Ashlie asked.

"she said she misses you very much but thinks you should live with me." Lied miss Campbell.

Ashlie put a large amount of gum in her mouth and said "did she send you a message for me?"

"yes. To give you a great big kiss for her." as miss Campbell leaned in for a kiss Ashlie blew a bubble with her gum and popped it in her face

No good deed goes unpunished

No good deed goes unpunished.

Brooke patiently waited on the couch. She had been waiting for a plumber for over an hour now. it was getting ridicules. Her mother had placed a call about a clogged sink and set it up so Brooke was suppose to let the plumber in. She wasn't to leave the house.

Their mother, "Linda" did things like that all the time. It was a way of being controlling. Every since Brooke and Ashlie's father past away from a drunk driver, Linda watched over the girls like a hawk. She set curfews and check in times with both of the girls, in order to know they were safe at home.

The rules changed a little bit for Ashlie, who had turned 18. She didn't have a check in time, but she did still have a curfew. With the leniency that she was home by midnight.

Brooke on the other hand, still had to call her mom every two hours. As well be home by 6pm. She understood it was because she was twelve, but she also understood that her mom was a little over bearing.

Brooke kicked her feet out from the couch and jumped up. She let out a sigh of boredom. This was just another way of her mom controlling her.

Brooke's boredom soon ended as her attention was drawn to the front door, as she heard it unlock. She had never been so relived as her older sister Ashlie walked in.

Ashlie set her purse down on the table and looked up to see Brooke staring at her. "you OK?", Ashlie laughed as she walked up to her sister.

It always made Brooke silently smile, when Ashlie stood next to her. Ashlie was the older sister, but the shortest of the two. At 18 years old, Ashlie was only four feet and six inches tall. Brooke on the other hand was twelve and stood five foot four. When they stood next to each other it just looked funny.

Brooke looked down to her sister and replied, "yeah I'm fine. Just going crazy being in the house. Moms had me waiting for this stupid plumber all day. He's like hours late!"

Ashlie shrugged her shoulders and suggested, "well if you want to get out of the house for a second, we can go to jack n the box and pick something up to eat? I'm hungry and don't fell like cooking."

Brooke looked at the clock on the wall and noticed it was half an hour tell her mom got off of work. She couldn't let her mom know she left the house. Brooke turned to Ashlie and sighed, "I can't go Ashlie. Moms almost off and that plumber hasn't shown up yet. I can't leave the house."

Ashlie rolled her eyes and remarked, "it's right down the street! Come on. The stupid plumber hasn't shown up yet, and we got thirty minutes to get there and back. So lets go!"

Brooke looked at the clock once more and turned to Ashlie with excitement and said "OK lets go!" Before racing to the front door.

Ashlie followed suit and grabbed her purse as she ran out the front door and to her car. She fired it up and pulled out of the drive way with Brooke in the passenger seat. Brooke turned on the radio and said, "I love this song!" As Ashlie drove them to jack in the box.

As they pulled into jack n the box, Ashlie noticed that there was a good size line of cars, but figured it would go pretty fast. The thing she didn't know, was the plumber had shown up and left already because Brooke wasn't home.

The line of cars was slower moving than both girls thought. As they approached the speaker box, Brooke's cell phone rang.

"Shit...its mom!" Brooke said before answering the phone and cheerfully saying, "hello mom! What's going on?"

Right away Ashlie noticed Brooke's facial expression change to horror, as her mother began yelling to the point, Ashlie herself could her it.

Brooke tried to defend herself from her mothers onslaught and replied, "I was at home mother! Ashlie came home and wanted to go get something to eat and dragged me along with her!"

Ashlie looked right at Brooke with fear in her own eyes. Her sister had pinned the whole plumber ordeal on her. Ashlie waited for Brooke to finish her conversation before she addressed what was said.

"why did you say that! YOU wanted to get out of the house as I recall! I didn't force you to come with me!" barked Ashlie as she moved her car up to the speaker.

The voice from the speaker cheerful asked, "welcome to jack n the box. Would you like to try are new nacho taco?"

Ashlie stuck her head out the window and replied, "no thanks. Two cheeseburgers. That's it."

The person told Ashlie her total and that's when Brooke replied, "It's not all my fault Ashlie! I'm not going to be the only one getting in trouble for this. You wanted jack n the box, I was simply board."

Ashlie looked right at her sister and complained, "still you didn't have to come with me! Now mom is going to be mad at me!"

Brooke crossed her arms and watched the car in front of them move up. She didn't look at Ashlie when she concluded, "well it's no use fighting now. Were both in trouble."

Ashlie looked at Brooke, who was looking away, and back to the car in front of her. She silently let out a sigh. She hadn't been in trouble with her mom in ages, but knew her mom was ridiculous when it came to things like this.

As soon as Ashlie paid for the food, they began eating the cheeseburgers as Ashlie drove home. Both Ashlie and Brooke were in fear as they got closer and closer to their house. They didn't know what to expect.

As Ashlie pulled her car into the driveway she looked at Brooke and sighed, "are you ready?"

Brooke opened the passenger door and slowly got out as she replied, "no, but we got no choice."

Ashlie opened her car door and followed Brooke up to the front door of the house. They didn't have a chance to open the door as Linda pulled it open and yelled, "BROOKE! Get you're ASS in here, RIGHT NOW!" Her mom moved aside and let Brooke pass by before looking at Ashlie and saying, "you to."

Ashlie lowered her head and walked past her mother into the house without saying a word. She stopped next to her sister, who was standing by the couch.

Linda shut the front door and walked over to the couch. She stood in front of Ashlie and Brooke and screamed, "I TOLD YOU TO STAY HERE BROOKE!! What happened?"

Brooke began to tear up and Ashlie knew she was going to crack. Brooke looked up to her mother and whimpered, "I..I was here all day! Ashlie showed up and wanted to get food. I told her I was waiting, but she made me go!"

Ashlie's eyes widen and her jaw dropped in shock at what Brooke just said. Ashlie jerked her head to Brooke and objected, "I DIDN'T MAKE YOU GO! I came home and you were board and went along with me cause I was hungry!"

As Brooke began to bicker with Ashlie, Linda stopped the argument as she proclaimed, "I don't care who said what. Brooke, you knew you were suppose to stay home until the plumber got here. Now he won't be back until tomorrow and I can't take a shower before work."

"I'm sorry mother..." Brooke started to say, but found herself cut off as her mom plopped down on the couch and grabbed Brooke's arm.

"you're not sorry yet." Linda snapped as she pulled Brooke over her lap. Without any warning, Brooke's mother began spanking her with full force.

She was into her tenth swat when she stopped and asked Brooke, "what are you going to do next time I tell you to do something?"

Brooke was crying and sobbed, "I'm going to do what ever you tell me to do!"

Linda smiled and replied, "this will help you not forget!" As she began spanking Brooke again.

Ashlie watched her sister kick and scream in pain as her mother spanked her butt in front of her. Part of Ashlie was glad that Brooke was getting spanked. That's what she got for telling. The other part of Ashlie was embarrassed for her. At least she had her pants on.

Ashlie's mom stopped spanking Brooke and pulled her off of her lap.

Brooke's hands went right to her backside as she stood up and sobbed.

Ashlie's attention to Brooke was short lived as her mom began talking. "Ashlie, I told Brooke to stay home and you tempted her to leave the house. I don't think you're to blame for her not listening, but you had a roll in it." suggested Linda.

Ashlie tried to defend herself and blurted, "I don't disagree mom, she said she was waiting, but she also said she wanted to do anything. I'm sorry she didn't listen to you and I'm sorry I helped her."

Ashlie's mother nodded in agreement and declared, "we will just agree that you're both at fault for not listening. I don't see why since Brooke got punished, that you shouldn't too?"

Ashlie felt panic rise up her spine and gulped before saying, "I'm 18 years old mom, legally an adult now. I don't think..."

Her mom cut her off from finishing her sentence as she grabbed Ashlie's arm just like she did with Brooke. "yeah you're 18, but you're still small enough to take over my knee!", said Linda as she yanked Ashlie over her lap.

Ashlie began kicking her feet and swinging her arms in order to stand up. She found it useless as Linda held her firmly in place across her lap.

"MOTHER STOP!", yelled Ashlie as she tried to wiggle free from her mothers grip.

Linda swatted Ashlie's butt once to get her attention before she announced, "I'm going to make myself clear. You know the rules and how to act. You're going to act like your sister, than I'm going to treat you just the same."

Ashlie didn't have time to protest as her pants and panties were tugged down to her thighs. Just as fast as her pants reached her legs, her mom began spanking Ashlie.

Ashlie screamed out in pain as the swats rained down on her backside. Linda switched from one cheek to the other in a rapid series.

Her mom was into her 15 swat when she stopped and asked, "are you going to get Brooke to leave the house again, after I told her to stay home?"

Ashlie was crying heavily when she sobbed, "NO MOTHER! I won't! Please stop....PLEASE stop spanking me...please.."

Ashlie's mom looked to Brooke, who had been watching the whole time, and down back to Ashlie before continuing. Swat after swat came down on Ashlie's ass and she started screaming in agonizing pain. After another 15 swats, Ashlie's mom stopped.

Ashlie was uncontrollably sobbing as she was pulled off of her mothers lap and forced to stand in front of Linda. Linda stood up and looked at her two girls before saying, "well since you two already ate, I don't see a problem with you two going to bed early. Now, I suggest that you follow your sister to her room Ashlie. She'll know where an extra set of her pajamas are. Your going to be sleeping in her room tonight."

Brooke looked up to Linda with tear filled eyes and remarked, "yes mother." She turned to Ashlie and said, "come on Ashlie..." As she started walking towards her room.

Ashlie looked at her mother, who didn't look happy at all, than lowered her head and followed her little sister. As the two sisters walked slowly, their mother walking close behind them.

As they entered Brooke's room, Ashlie stood by the bunk bed, while Brooke went to the dresser. Linda stopped in the door way and watched as Brooke opened the top drawer.

Brooke pulled out two pairs of pajama bottoms and two pajama tops. She handed Ashlie one set, before turning back to the dresser and opening the next drawer over.

"you might as well grab one of those for Ashlie, while you're in there." Linda said from the doorway.

Ashlie looked up from the pajamas and over to Brooke. She knew what Brooke kept in that drawer. As Brooke pulled out two pairs of goodnites, Ashlie turned to her mom and pleaded, "why do I got to wear one! I don't wet the bed! Please mom, Don't make me."

Her mom walked into the room and snatched the goodnite from Brooke and held it up for Ashlie to see. "If she's wearing one, so are you. Now put it on and climb into bed or I will put it on for you!"

Ashlie looked at the goodnite her mom was dangling in front of her and sadly took it.

"good girl." Her mother said before turning around and going to the door. She stopped and looked back to Brooke and Ashlie before finishing, "you two get dressed. I will be right back in to tuck you in."

Ashlie watched her mother walk away before she slid her pants off. She glanced over to Brooke, who was already stepping into the goodnite. Ashlie lowered the training pants to her feet and stepped into the leg holes. With a swift yank, she pulled the goodnite up her legs.

Ashlie felt a tear roll down her cheek as the material pressed against her skin. The goodnight was bulky and rode high along her waist. Ashlie grabbed the pajama pants and pulled them on, before doing the same with the pajama top.

"you look cute." Brooke said as she climbed into the bottom bunk.

Ashlie looked herself over and the tears began to roll from her eyes. She felt stupid.

Ashlie climbed the ladder to the top part of the bunk bed and plopped down on her back.

"mommy's back!" Linda sang as she walked into the room and tucked Brooke into bed. She leaned up to the top bunk and patted Ashlie's crotch to hear the muffled sound of the padding. Linda pulled the covers over Ashlie and tucked her in. "in the morning you can have your clothes back Ashlie. Let this be a lesson to you. Next time you won't get off so easy. Now good night."

As Ashlie's mom got to the door she turned off the lights and walked out. Leaving Brooke and Ashlie alone.

Ashlie closed her eyes and focused on failing to sleep. she wanted to get this day over with. She softly cried to herself until she fell asleep.

THE AUDITION CH. 3

The audition 3

Back at the house miss Campbell rushed into the house and seen that Charlie was there waiting.

"Charlie! Its so wonderful to see you!" she chimed she dropped her purse on a coffee table.

As Ashlie walked up Charlie asked "how come you haven't hit me up, what is it? Me?"

"no its not that Charlie. I've got someone I'm taking care of. I got to watch her.....she drinks." miss Campbell acknowledged as she looked at Annie.

Ashlie as childish as could be exclaimed "not any more Aunty Campbell! I'm on the wagon!"

"Annie dear, this is Mr. Charlie gear, famous musician. I'm sure you've hears of him?" Replied miss Campbell.

Ashlie smiled as big and as childish as she could and informed "oh yes, my mommy use to listen to him."

Charlie looked at Ashlie and shook his head.

"Annie dear, would you do something for me?" questioned miss Campbell.

"yes anything!" Ashlie claimed.

"go ask Mrs. Morgan when lunch will be ready?" Responded miss Campbell.

Ashlie turned around and yelled "MRS MORGAN, WHEN'S LUNCH GOING TO BE READY!!!"

"no child. You must go ask her. Don't yell." sighed miss Campbell in disbelief.

As Ashlie ran off, miss Campbell sat with Charlie and said "not even twenty four hours and I want to kill her. You going to stay awhile?"

"I got a show later and...." Charlie responded hesitantly.

"that isn't tell Saturday Charlie." miss Campbell noted, who than was interrupted as Ashlie came running into the room and exclaimed "MRS MORGAN SAID LUNCH WILL BE READY IN FIVE MINUTES! There now, I wasn't long was I Aunt Campbell."

Miss Campbell sighed and said, "no you weren't dear. You did just fine. You should go wash your hands honey."

Ashlie shoved her hands into miss Campbell's face and bubbled "I don't know about yours but mine are clean! Look!" before shoving them into Charlie's face to see.

"run along dear, we need to talk." smiled miss Campbell impatiently. She wanted to talk to Charlie,.hit Annie was getting in the way.

"Its OK!" giggled Ashlie as she sat on the floor and rocked side to side. She knew she was being overly obnoxious and it was getting to miss Campbell.

Miss Campbell rolled her eyes and looked at Charlie and asked "are you staying?"

Charlie looked at miss Campbell and replied "I don't do diapers. Kids really aren't my thing."

Ashlie jumped up and yelled "THERE NOT DIAPERS!... There nite nite pants!" As she stomped her foot and put her hands on her hips.

Charlie stood up and looked at miss Campbell as he confessed "I don't got time for this." and walked out the front door.

Miss Campbell looked at Annie and Ashlie smiled big and foolishly, before skipping away.

Miss Campbell got up and as Charlie was getting in his car she said, "I'm sorry about her. She can be..." but didn't get to finish as Ashlie ran outside and stated ringing a dinner bell.

Charlie looked at Ashlie and got in his car and drove off. Miss Campbell shook her head and looked to Annie, who was now playing hope scotch. Ashlie looked up and began ringing the bell again as she made a silly face.

Ashlie smiled to herself as she stopped ringing the bell. She really was having fun driving miss Campbell crazy. She had it coming after the rude phone call.

That night miss Campbell was frantically going through her room looking for a cigarette but was having no luck. Every smoke she had was gone.

Ashlie on the other hand was high as hell. She just got done puffing a joint, made possible with the pot she took from miss Campbell. Sitting on the bed, Ashlie pulled a cigarette from a hiding spot and lit it with a match.

As Ashlie shook the match out she leaned forward and placed it on the nightstand. She playfully patted the crotch of the thick training pants and smiled. Never in her life would she have thought about wearing such a thing. But here she was. Wearing a glorified diaper. And in all truth it wasn't that bad. They were like underwear with padding. Ashlie's mind ventured from the training pants and to miss Campbell. Ashlie knew she was driving her crazy.

Miss Campbell was looking everywhere for some smokes and booze but couldn't find any. Than she remembered the pool. Annie had tossed a bunch of bottles in it. Miss Campbell stood at the bottom of the staircase and listened for Annie up stairs. After a few moments she thought the coast was clear and slowly snuck out of the house, and towards the pool. She needed a drink.

Ashlie laid back on her bed, wearing only a shirt and the nite nite pants as she took another drag from her cigarette. It felt so good being able to smoke. Suddenly out side she heard the poodles barking and got up to see what the noise was about. Down below, miss Campbell was trying to locate a bottle of liqueur in the pool but not having much luck. Ashlie smiled as she watched her try to reach a floating bottle.

Ashlie quickly put out her cigarette and playfully ran out of the room and to the pool just in time to see miss Campbell pulling a bottle out of the water.

"miss Campbell how could you!" Ashlie shamed as she grabbed the bottle from her hands. If she wasn't stoned, drinking the scotch would had been fun.

"PUT THAT DOWN ANNIE!" ordered miss Campbell as she eyed the bottle in Annie's hand.

Ashlie looked at the bottle and than tossed it as far as she could, landing with a shatter. She began laughing uncontrollably and jumping up and down.

Miss Campbell got frustrated and plopped down on a chair before quickly grabbing Ashlie and pulling over her lap.

Ashlie tried to balance her body as her hands and feet dangled above the ground. She was still laughing when she turned her head and giggled "what on earth are you doing?"

Without any warning, miss Campbell began spanking Ashlie on the her padded butt with full force.

The first couple of swats Ashlie thought was a joke. She wasn't wearing pants, but the padding of the training pants were taking most of the force. Each SWAT ended with a very loud muffled thump. After the tenth SWAT though, she began to feel it sting on her butt cheeks. As the pain grew Ashlie let out a gasp and pleaded "your spanking me for real! Stop! you can't do this to me!"

Miss Campbell pushed Ashlie's head down and kept swatting her ass. Rotating cheek from cheek with each swat.

"I can and I will! YOU are being a VERY bad girl!" stated miss Campbell as she brought more force to her swings.

Soon the only sound that could be heard was the muffled swats as they hit the training pants. Each swat resulting in Ashlie letting out a gasp. The rhythm became a steady swat, thump, gasp and sob as miss Campbell kept spanking Ashlie.

Ashlie was in the middle of a full blown meltdown. tears rolled down her face without any restrain. Her voice had become a full sob.

"no, don't!" Was the only thing Ashlie was able to muster up as she felt miss Campbell take ahold of the waistband to the training pants. Ignoring Annie's protest, miss Campbell began tugging the garment down over her butt.

Ashlie felt the goodnite being pulled down her butt cheeks. she hysterically tried to kick her legs but was very limited on her moment because of the under garment. She reached her arm up to grab miss Campbell's, but miss Campbell pinned that arm to own back. That's when the real spanking started.

Ashlie was bare bottom and trying to wriggle free when the first of many more swats rained down on her bare ass.

"STOP! STOP! your...your..your HURTING ME!" Ashlie screamed as SWAT after SWAT met her butt. but miss Campbell kept on.

After what seemed like hours, but in all reality was about ten minutes. Miss Campbell paused and asked "are you going to be a good girl now?"

Ashlie was crying so hard she had snot coming down her nose and sobbed "YES!...yes I will be a good girl. Just please stop spanking me, it hurts and..."

Miss Campbell cut Ashlie off and replied "Its suppose to hurt Annie. That's why its called a spanking. Now you going to be good or do I have to continue?"

Ashlie let her body go limp over miss Campbell's body as she answered with a sob "I will behave. Anything you want! Stop spanking me please. please...just please stop."

Satisfied that her point was made, miss Campbell pulled Ashlie off of her lap and stood her next to the chair she was seated in. "good. Now that you learned your lesson, its time for bed Annie." stated miss Campbell as she grabbed the training pants Ashlie was wearing and pulled them up her legs and into place.

Ashlie winced in pain as she felt the padding of the training pant slide tightly over her ass. Her rear felt like it was in fire and the compression of a tight under garment help her remember to never piss off miss Campbell again.

As Ashlie limped into her new bedroom, miss Campbell followed closely behind. Ashlie felt the stinging pain more and more with each step she took and as she looked behind her miss Campbell declared "go to bed."

Ashlie stopped half way into the room and put her hand to her butt cheek, but was startled when miss Campbell roared "DID YOU HEAR ME! Get into bed now!"

Ashlie hurried to the bed and as she sat down she jumped right back up in pain and whimpered. She could not ever remember a time where she had been spanked, but found out it was beyond painful. To the point it hurt to sit, even with the padding from the training pants.

"get to bed. come on Annie, your dragging this on longer than you need to." acknowledged miss Campbell as she walked to the bed.

Ashlie winced in pain as she sat down and laid back onto her pillow.

Miss Campbell looked to the nightstand by the bed and noticed a cigarette butt and some ash. She picked up the butt and held it out for Ashlie to see and barked "where did you get this?"

Ashlie froze up in fear and didn't know what to say. She was caught red handed.

"where did you get this Annie? I asked you a question child. You tell me your I will tear this whole room apart!" demanded miss Campbell.

Ashlie knew she had to give miss Campbell something. If not she could find the hidden bottle of vodka and bag of pot. Ashlie winced in pain as she rolled over and grabbed half a pack of cigarettes from under the bed and held them up in the air.

Miss Campbell grabbed the pack and cleared her throat as she said "now YOU listen here Annie. I'm going to smoke and you are not. I'm going to drink and you are not. I'm an adult and its my right to choose. You on the other hand are a child and can't choose. Is that understood?"

Ashlie laid on the bed and a tear came to her eye. She was an adult. She wasn't a kid. She had the right to choose, but after leading miss Campbell on she knew she couldn't argue with her.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND!" yelled miss Campbell.

Ashlie jumped in fear and mumbled "yes, I understand..."

Miss Campbell pulled a cigarette out of the pack and put it in her mouth as she said,"now go to bed." before walking to the door and turning off the light.

Ashlie kicked her legs and hit the bed in anger, but winced as her swore ass reminder her of the wrath miss Campbell. She rolled on her side and closed her eyes as the tears began to form in little drops and roll down her cheeks. She wanted to go home.

The next morning Ashlie careful got dressed. Her ass was still sore and just taking the training pant off alone was pure hell. She dressed in a girls cocktail dress that was blue with puffed sleeves and white trimmed lace. as she carefully sat on the bed and worked her legs into the panties she had been supplied, she felt defeated. She leaned forward enough to pull the my little pony panties up over her ass. Maybe her greed had gotten the best of her and she should just tell miss Campbell the truth. It was better than living like this. Maybe she wouldn't get in trouble, just kicked out.

Ashlie carefully stood up and slipped her feet into the Mary Jane's and made her way downstairs.

She sat on the couch and jumped up in pain before rubbing her butt. "stupid miss Campbell. spanking me. I'm an adult, after all." Ashlie was mumbling to herself when she looked up and seen a taxi pulling into the driveway. The backdoor open and Joshua got out and looked around.

"shit..." Ashlie said as she looked around and began power walking towards the front door. Josh was going to ruin everything.

"Josh! You shouldn't have come, I've been trying to get ahold of you!" announced Ashlie as she bounded down the steps of the house to Josh.

"get in that cab Ashlie, were leaving." said Josh as he pointed to the taxi.

"Josh! No!" replied Ashlie as she looked over her shoulder to the house.

Josh pushed Ashlie aside and said, "where's that bitch miss Campbell! I'm going to give her a piece of my mind!"

"oh my God Josh, come here!" Ashlie said as she pulled Josh to the side and looked around.

"what are you doing?" replied Josh.

"listen. Going off on miss Campbell will only hurt me and I will loose my chance at being famous. I've got a much better idea." claimed Ashlie.

"what?" replied Josh skeptically.

"I will play the Concert and after will tell everyone that I'm not really a child and this is what I had to do to get noticed. You could write this story for your blog and it will be read by hundreds, thousands Josh. Thousands. You will get to put miss Campbell in her place and everyone will know who she really is. What do you say Josh? Help me help you and I will help you." pleaded Ashlie.

"I don't know. I can't imagine you not being home and in the same house as her." admitted Josh as he kicked the ground.

"oh come on Josh. To her I'm just some kid. Just some little obnoxious girl who wears, never mind that. But she thinks I'm a kid." countered Ashlie.

"you really are crazy Ashlie." Josh said as he leaned in for a kiss.

Just than miss Campbell looked out the front door and seen Josh kissing Annie.

"hey YOU!" yelled miss Campbell as she ran down the steps and towards Josh.

Joshua turned just in time for miss Campbell to knee him right in the crotch and push him toward the taxi.

Ashlie looked at miss Campbell and exclaimed "this is becoming a habit with you!" as she got down to see if her real life boyfriend was OK.

Miss Campbell looked at the taxi driver and said "driver, come get this piece of shit out of here."

Ashlie looked up from Josh and cried "you really could have hurt him!"

Miss Campbell grabbed Ashlie's arm and as she pulled Ashlie towards the house Ashlie said "you...you..you monster. You can't just kick people in the balls."

Miss Campbell stopped and yelled " driver, hang on!", before she looked at Ashlie and said, "lets get this settled. Do you want to stay here or go with him?"

Ashlie looked at Josh than to the house as she weighed her options. Feeling bad that she was saying it, Ashlie whispered, "here...."

Miss Campbell looked back at the driver and yelled, "alright sir, you can drive him off now."

As the taxi drove off with Josh in it, Ashlie looked at miss Campbell and childishly said, "I'm not staying with you because I like you....I'm staying so I can play music! One show and if I don't like it I'm out!"

Miss Campbell grabbed Ashlie's arm and replied, "that's fine with me.", as she guided Ashlie back up the steps of the house.

Later that day Ashlie was playing guitar as miss Campbell and another guy listened. As Ashlie finished the song the man said, "no Annie, with more passion!", as he himself picked up a guitar and stated playing along with her.

The whole time miss Campbell sat on the couch drinking watered down whisky and smiling. Annie was going to make her even more rich and even more famous.

That night as Ashlie was climbing into bed, miss Campbell patted her butt and said, "you haven't wet the bed so far dear. A couple more nights and I would say your done with those nite nite pants."

"really!", exclaimed Ashlie. It was the first good news all day.

Miss Campbell pulled the covers up to Ashlie's chest and smiled, "yes really. As long as you don't wet the bed by than. Now try to get some sleep honey. Goodnight."

Ashlie smiled as miss Campbell walked to the door and turned off the light. The more time she spent with miss Campbell, the more she liked her. Miss Campbell was like the mom she never had and Ashlie could tell that miss Campbell herself was becoming attached to her.

The next day, miss Campbell lead Ashlie outside with the promise of a surprise and once Ashlie seen what it was, she really was surprised. Miss Campbell had bought Ashlie a pink girls bike with white basket and flower decals.

"you shouldn't have.....", Ashlie said as she walked to the bike and got on.

Miss Campbell handed Ashlie a helmet and got on her own bike.

Ashlie looked at the Helmet in her hands and noticed it was pink with colored owls around the edge. The inside was white Styrofoam. Ashlie sighed as she slipped the helmet on and buckled the chin strap.

Miss Campbell asked at Ashlie and said, "lets go for a ride Annie!". And soon both miss Campbell and Annie were riding down the road. This was the first time in a couple days that Ashlie felt relaxed and worry free. As she road her Child's bike, she caught herself smiling. She didn't want to smile, but couldn't help it. Even with the stupid helmet, this was fun.

Miss Campbell looked over and even noticed that she was smiling, which in return made her smile. Maybe she should take Annie out on the town, maybe that's what she needs?, thought miss Campbell as she rode her bike along Annie.

Later that day Ashlie had found herself at an amusement park with miss Campbell. The only flaw to the trip was Ashlie was already to small for most rides and thought to be a child, which meant she was limited to the Child's rides and games. As Ashlie rode on a minuter pony, she looked over to miss Campbell. for the first time Ashlie noticed her smile. It wasn't a fake smile, but an honest real one. Miss Campbell was enjoying this, thought Ashlie as a greasy man pulled her off the pony and stood her up. Maybe this arrangement helped them both?

Back at the house that night, Ashlie was busy practicing her guitar. She looked over and seen that miss Campbell was past out on the couch. Ashlie smiled to herself and set down the guitar before walking over to the woman. Ashlie grabbed a throw blanket and pulled it over miss Campbell. As Ashlie was leaving the room she spotted a bottle of booze.

As Ashlie walked away she Swiped a bottle of rum and looked at the label. It was captain Morgans spiced rum and Ashlie knew it packed a punch. The last time she had drinking it, she ended up puking in the car while Josh drove her back to her apartment.

As she walked up the stair case she reflected back to the days events. from the bike ride, to the amusement park. Never in her life would she had let someone or anyone, watch her enjoy herself riding the kids rides at the amusement park. Yet here she was, 26 years old and rubbing elbows with children, whom thought she was the same age. A couple times riding the rides, Ashlie got paired up with an elven year old named Mallory and found herself taking about pop stars. Thank God, miss Campbell left teen beat magazines around for Ashlie to read. Otherwise, Ashlie wouldn't have had anything to reply with when Mallory was talking. The only real other let down to the amusement park was once she had gotten to the front of the line, Ashlie was told she was to short to ride. After that, she shyed away from Mallory to spare the embarrassment of being told she's to little by a eleven year old.

"today was a good day.", Ashlie said to herself as she walked into her new room and closed the door behind her. She tossed the bottle of rum on the bed and playfully skipped over to the dresser. As she pulled her shirt off she tossed it aside and grabbed a girls thermal pajama top, and pulled it on.

She opened the top right drawer and pulled out a pair of training pants and set them on top of the dresser. Ashlie unbuttoned her pants and pulled them down, before stepping out of the leg holes and casting them aside. Followed by the childish panties she was wearing.

Ashlie grabbed the training pant off of the dresser and stretched it open before lowering to her feet and stepping into the leg holes. As she worked it up her legs she thought about it. 26 years old and wearing a glorified diaper. Truthfully thou, she didn't mind. They were like full cut panties with a little extra padding. Somewhat comfy after getting use to them, and its not like she used them ever. It just became a thing she did before bed. Ashlie pulled on the waistband to get a better fit and pulled at the leg holes before patting herself on the butt. She actually thought the design was cute. It had cute little butterflies mixed in with polka dots.

As Ashlie skipped back to the bed she giggled at the rustling sound that the training pant admitted. It was like someone was slightly moving a plastic bag around just enough to pick up on the sound. As she stopped skipping, she picked up the rum and twisted off the top. She put her nose to the bottle and whiffed the strong smell of the 80 proof liqueur, before taking a sip.

Right away Ashlie cringed her nose and exhaled. She forgot how strong the burn was. After the sting went away, Ashlie put the bottle back to her lips and began chugging the rum.

She pulled the bottle away and wiped her mouth as she twisted the cap back on and tossed the bottle on the bed.

Following the bottle, Ashlie flopped on her stomach on the bed. She picked up a teen beat magazine and flipped it open. As she read articles about who's new and what's cool, she would take the time to stop and take a swig from the bottle of rum.

Soon enough, Ashlie was starting to feel drunk. As she flipped the page, she looked up and seen the big doll that miss Campbell had bought her. Ashlie smiled to herself and crawled further onto the bed until she was up against the doll.

Ashlie looked the doll over and thought it was so odd that miss Campbell would bye such a big doll for her. It was almost as big as her. Ashlie pulled herself onto the doll and let her body go limp.

"you understand me right? Oh come on.....don't judge......you got a diaper on to.... ", Ashlie joked as she hugged the doll. As Ashlie stretched out her legs, she went to pull herself up from the doll, but got a funny sensation. She lifted herself high enough to see what it was and found that the dolls knee had brushed against her clit.

Even through the padding of the training pants Ashlie could feel it. And it felt good. She slowly lowered her body back onto the doll and began moving her waist back and forth until she found the right spot. Soon enough, she couldn't stop and was on her way to a really good orgasm. The faster she moved her hips the more she bit her lip until her legs pulled together and Ashlie moaned. She tensed up as she felt herself cum and than collapsed on top of the doll.

"wow...", Ashlie said to herself as she pulled herself up and sat on the bed. The last time she ever humped a stuffed animal was when she was a kid and discovering her own body. She looked over to the doll than touched the crotch of the training pant and found that it had absorbed all of the fluid her body has secreted. She looked down at the training pant and poked it as it looked somewhat bigger. "well you did your job.", Ashlie joked to the training pant before she picked the bottle of rum back up and twisted the cap off.

Ashlie chugged most of the rum before she knew it was time to call it quits. She stumbled to the bedroom window and opened it, before throwing the bottle out and into the pool. She closed the window and turned off the light as she made her way back into the bed. As she got comfy, Ashlie pulled the doll close and mumbled, "your going to bed with me.", and closed her eyes.

The next morning miss Campbell flung the bedroom curtains open and sang, "rise and shine Annie!"

Ashlie winced at the blinding light from the sun on her face and rolled over. "just a little longer....", she said as she started drifting back off to sleep.

"come on Annie! We got a busy day ahead of us. A stylist is coming and a photographer to take your pictures. Come on! Get up sleepy head!", joked miss Campbell as she walked up to the bed and bumped it with her leg.

Ashlie opened her eyes and for the first time in ages, she felt hungover. Ashlie swatted at the cover and moaned, "I'm awake...I'm awake....", as she let out a yawn.

Suddenly, miss Campbell playfully yanked the blanket off of Ashlie and noticed the very wet and ballooned training pant. "Annie?....did you wet the bed?", sincerely asked miss Campbell.

Ashlie came to life and rolled onto her back and leaned up as she felt droplets of pee squeeze out the leg holes. She gasped in fear as she put her hands to her crotch to cover the training pant from miss Campbell's eyes. As she turned beet red with humiliation, Ashlie looked up to miss Campbell and argued, "I didn't wet the bed?....I....I....",

"now come on Annie.", miss Campbell corrected as she lifted one of Ashlie's hands up and confined, "its OK if you did. Accidents happen. But you need to tell the truth when asked a question. You don't want to grow up to be a liar."

Ashlie was watching miss Campbell study her very wet and cold training pant. She wasn't going to win this one. "I wet the bed....you happy?", groaned Ashlie as she knew what was coming.

Miss Campbell pocked the crotch of the training pants and observed, "you soaked this thing through? Wow...", before she stopped and smiled, "well thank you for telling me the truth Annie. That was the right thing to do. You should go take a bath and get dressed. There is going to be a stylist here soon."

Ashlie was surprised miss Campbell didn't lecture her on wetting the bed. She thought she was going to get a long talk about going to the bathroom before bed and what not. But no. She was told to get ready instead. As Ashlie got off the bed and embarrassingly walk in front of miss Campbell, wearing a very squishy training pant, miss Campbell praised, "well at least it did its job."

Ashlie felt ashamed as she recalled saying the same thing last night when she masturbated wearing the childish undergarment. Slowly she marched to the bathroom and drew a bath. Today was starting out shitty

Later, Ashlie had a stylist make her over and she sat by the pool with the giant doll miss Campbell had bought. Ashlie smiled big and let the photographer take pictures of her.

After the photo session Ashlie was met with an even bigger surprise.

Miss Campbell had taken Ashlie to meet the members of the band "school of rock", and Ashlie nearly flipped her lid. She was so excited and nervous that she couldn't help slightly shaking as was introduced to everyone. Once introductions were made, Ashlie was asked to jam out.

"Annie that was amazing!", said the band manager as he smiled at Ashlie. The man turned to the band of real kids and followed, "you guys now have a challenge. Little ten year old Annie is the youngest in the bad, but still better than all of you. Your not practicing enough!"

The man turned back to all of the band and counted off, "one, two, three...", before the whole school of rock band began playing again.

Miss Campbell sat in a chair and leaned in to Mrs. Benson and said, "you know she's an amazing child. She can talk about movies, comics, music and has a great sense humor. Some of the stuff she knows about blows my mind. She's ten and knows about Jimmy page and the misfits. Tell you, I just don't understand."

Mrs. Benson nodded in agreement and answered, "and to think, you wanted to kill her last week."

"shows what a fool I can be.", replied miss Campbell as a stage hand walked up.

"miss Campbell. There's a guy who wants an interview for his blog. Said he knows you? Names Josh silver?", said the stage hand.

Miss Campbell frowned and looked at Mrs. Benson and said, "excuse me."

As miss Campbell walked into the lobby she seen it was Annie's uncle and got serious.

"I don't want any trouble miss Campbell.", Josh joked as he smiled.

"I'm here to see of Annie is OK and get a picture for her sister Ashlie. Mind if I get a picture of you two together?", questioned Josh.

"I thought you were writing for your blog?", countered miss Campbell.

"Josh shrugged his shoulders and said, "was, but that's not important. Can I get a picture of you two together?"

"yes. Practice is almost over with. Hang on.", said miss Campbell as she walked away.

Josh nodded OK and looked around the lobby before slowly following behind miss Campbell to the stage area.

"were all very proud of you Annie!", clapped the band manger as everyone else started clapping. Josh looked around and couldn't believe that his girlfriend had fooled all these people. They all actually thought she was a child.

"Annie! That was great!", remarked miss Campbell as she walked up to Ashlie and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

As Ashlie was being kissed a flash went off and she looked up to see it was Josh. Right away she felt dread. Was he here to ruin it for her.

"how's it go there Annie. That was awfully good. I bet your ready to be on stage!", remarked Josh as he pinched her cheek and smiled.

The photographer smiled and answered, "she's going to be a hit in the school of rock. Being the youngest and all ever to play with them. Annie! Mr. silver here is writing about you for his blog. Isn't that great."

Ashlie didn't know what to say. Josh was going to ruin all of her hard work. She smiled at Josh and looked up to miss Campbell, who didn't seem to impressed.

"one more picture Annie! How about you riding miss Campbell like a pony!", asked Josh.

Miss Campbell looked at Annie than to Josh and said, "out of the picture, were both to old for that. Now if you don't mind we both got some things to do."

as Ashlie and miss Campbell were walking away, Josh said, "see you on stage kiddo.", before turning and walking away himself.

As miss Campbell and Ashlie walked out of an elevator, miss Campbell said, "Annie this is my condo, I think you might like it here."

As they walked into the apartment they were greeted by Mrs. Morgan who took both of their coats. As Mrs. Morgan took Ashlie's jacket she asked miss Campbell, "well how did everything go?"

Miss Campbell looked at Mrs Morgan and replied, "great. Annie did amazing."

Ashlie was deep in thought about her boyfriend Josh when she heard miss Campbell say, "yeah, you know who came by. I feel that he shouldn't be a problem that much longer. The paper work is in the process and...."

Ashlie cut off miss Campbell, "paper work?"

Miss Campbell patted Ashlie's shoulders and remarked, "oh don't worry Annie. Its adult stuff. Say? We should go look at the view from my apartment balcony!"

As Ashlie felt miss Campbell grab her hand she followed miss Campbell outside onto the balcony.

"aww look at this view Annie. There's central park and the zoo. When its a full moon you can hear the lions roar. Winter time thou, there's a ice rink. I hope you like to skate. I use to....before all of this. Well, before to long you will be famous. Kids begging for your autograph, little girls looking up to you as a role model."

Ashlie looked over the railing and let out a sigh. She was going to be famous to kids. Not adults. Kids, some bigger than her, would bug her for this and that. Far from what she really wanted to be.

"Annie. I wanted to ask you something. About your uncle Josh. Its really about something you said when he came out to my house. You said you were sticking around for one show....or the chance to play once. You really didn't mean that did you?", sincerely pried miss Campbell.

Ashlie felt herself starting to get emotional and she looked up to miss Campbell and said, "what...I...I..."

Miss Campbell put her arm around Ashlie and pulled her close. "were going to be working with each other for years and years. Wouldn't you like to live with me full time?"

Ashlie wiped a tear from her eye and sadly said, "you may change your mind after the concert...."

"now get this through your little had pumpkin, even if everything went wrong at the show or after, it wouldn't matter to me. I love you for who you are, not what.", acknowledged miss Campbell.

The tears started rolling down Ashlie's cheeks as she sighed, "I'm so sorry...I...I really am."

Miss Campbell held Ashlie tighter and said, "I use to never be the person who cared about kids. I have money and everything a person could ever want. Maybe I'm the mother type after all."

Miss Campbell released Ashlie from the hug and took her hands in hers and looked down on the tiny woman, who she thought was a child. "you got a cute little nose...mouth....Annie...I want to adopt you.", said miss Campbell softly.

Ashlie was thrown off by the suggestion and never figured that is what miss Campbell was getting to.

She looked at miss Campbell and sputtered, "don't you think its time for dinner..."

Miss Campbell smiled and exclaimed, "yes! Great idea honey! Last one there is a rotten egg....ready! Set...go!", and took of running ahead of Ashlie.

Ashlie stood on the balcony and lowered her head. She felt so bad. So disgusted with herself. This woman who thought she was a child had fallen in love with her as if she was really one of her kids. Ashlie wiped her eyes and heard miss Campbell yell, "I won!", before slowly walking in after her.

Ashlie sat in her booster seat at the table and picked at her food. She didn't feel like eating. She just felt sad inside. Miss Campbell on the other hand was busy eating away.

"pardon me miss Campbell. Mr Charlie is on his way up.", said Mrs. Morgan.

"he is!", exclaimed miss Campbell as she stood up and rushed to the door leaving Mrs Morgan alone with Ashlie.

"don't look so scared Annie. Charlie really is a nice guy. Don't let that get to you. Now keep eating sweety.", said Mrs. Morgan

Ashlie heard the door open and looked over her shoulder to see Charlie kissing miss Campbell.

"my love!", Charlie said as he hugged and kissed miss Campbell, "I haven't heard from you in over a week and I needed to know you were OK."

Ashlie slowly slide off her chair and was tip toeing out of the room when miss Campbell said, "Annie!"

Ashlie lowered her head and walked over to miss Campbell and miss Campbell looked at Charlie and said, "you remember Annie miles don't you?"

Charlie looked Ashlie over and flopped down on the couch. Right away Ashlie began to feel awkward and took a step back but miss Campbell stopped her. "where you going Annie?"

Ashlie looked down and said, "to my room.....I'm tiered...."

"but its only five o'clock?", replied miss Campbell as she looked at her watch.

"please....", remarked Ashlie. With all the emotion going on inside of her, she just felt like crying and being alone.

Charlie spoke up and said, "let that brat go to bed."

Miss Campbell looked at Charlie and back to Ashlie, "could you go get me a cup of coffee dear?"

Ashlie nodded and walked of to the kitchen slowly.

"what's the matter with you? She's just a child.", barked miss Campbell.

Charlie laughed and replied, "I don't got time for brats. Why don't you send her off where you found her?"

"because she's going to live with me.", responded miss Campbell.

Charlie shook his head, "and than what? Adopt her?"

Miss Campbell got quiet and looked Charlie right in the eyes, "the paper work is being pushed as we speak."

Charlie stood up and got angry, "you never talked about kids. I don't want any."

Miss Campbell stood up and said, "I have to. Her sister hasn't come around once and her uncle is creepy. Plus.....I love her."

Charlie and miss Campbell were unaware that Ashlie was listening in and Ashlie was even more shocked when miss Campbell said, "I'm sorry Charlie......Annie needs me and I want to be a role model to her. Were....were through."

Before Ashlie had time to process what was happening, Charlie stormed out of the apartment and miss Campbell's life.

Ashlie put her head against the wall and wanted to cry. This lady had given up everything for her and Ashlie was just taking her along for a ride. Never had Ashlie felt so disappointed in herself.

Later Ashlie was sitting on her bed in her pajamas when miss Campbell walked in with some warm milk. Miss Campbell pulled the blankets up to Ashlie's cheat and ran her hand along Ashlie's cheek. "you know I love you Annie.", said miss Campbell.

"and....I love you.", answered Ashlie as she leaned up and hugged miss Campbell.

"I wanted to know Annie...how you would feel if I adopted you?", said miss Campbell.

"adopted me....", said Ashlie as she lowered head and felt the tears coming.

Miss Campbell seen Ashlie crying and asked, "what is it dear?"

Ashlie shook her head and sobbed, "nothing...."

Miss Campbell grabbed Ashlie's hands and replied, "you don't have to decide right now honey.....why don't you sleep on it."

Ashlie rolled over and miss Campbell patted Ashlie's padded rear before getting up and walking out of the room.

Ashlie felt like the biggest piece of shit for what she was doing. She needed to get out and get some air. Once Ashlie was sure miss Campbell was asleep she rolled out of bed and pulled on some pants. She needed to see Josh.

As Ashlie walked up the steps of her own apartment she was greeted by Josh, who was smoking a cigarette. Ashlie grabbed the smoke from Josh and took the first real drag she had had in a week.

"good to see you to.", said Josh as he slapped Ashlie's butt and heard a muffled noise.

Ashlie forgot she was still wearing the training pant and quickly changed the subject, "I missed you Josh. I had to see you."

"everything OK?", Josh asked as he took the smoke back from Ashlie and took a drag.

Ashlie lowered her head and as she walked into her apartment she said, "we need to talk Josh."

Once inside the apartment Josh asked, "what happen? How did you get away?"

"I don't think I can do this....", sighed Ashlie.

"why?", asked Josh.

"everyday is just a new humiliation and I don't think I can keep it going.", honestly replied Ashlie.

"why? What happen? Did they figure you were an adult?", questioned Josh.

"no. And there never going to. Annie is going to run away....I think...", sighed Ashlie.

"don't you know Annie miles just can't disappear? She's a real person now. She's on every news paper, news station and advertisement. They will be looking all over town if she goes missing. First place is here and they will be asking what we did with the body..", remarked Josh.

Ashlie bit her lip, "than what do I do Josh? Keep wearing diapers and being lead by the hand?", sobbed Ashlie.

Josh thought he was mistaken when Ashlie said, "diapers", and asked, "diapers?"

Ashlie rolled her eyes and replied, "there training pants Josh.....I got drunk and wet the bed by accident and.....never mind that thou. What am I'm going to do?"

"I'm going to put the story up on the blog now. Send a link to the news and say she made you do it. they will swarm miss Campbell. Maybe you come out before you play, they make you a hero and a good television story.....", said Josh.

Ashlie walked to the window and confessed, "I can't do that Josh."

"why not? What's happen to you?", insisted Josh.

"its complicated", Ashlie mumbled as she looked out the window.

"now come on. Why's it so complicated? Your leaving me in the dark Ashlie. What's going on?", exclaimed Josh.

"miss Campbell loves me....", sighed Ashlie.

Josh got upset and said, "she loves you!"

"not in the sense your thinking Josh. She.....she loves me like a daughter.", admitted Ashlie.

"I don't understand? So what? She loves you like a daughter. So we still getting married?", remarked Josh.

Ashlie lowered her head and mumbled, "yes."

Josh took Ashlie in his arms and Said, "good, we can leave tomorrow and get married."

Ashlie felt more guilt than ever as she looked down and knew the right thing to do.

Josh walked to the door and said, "I've got go get clothes! I will see you in the morning right?"

Ashlie nodded her head and began crying as she said "yes"

The next morning miss Campbell sat in her office with Mrs Benson and fretted, "is that the right time?", asked miss Campbell.

"what time did Ashlie say she would be here?", questioned Mrs. Benson.

"she didn't. She called late last night and said she would be here early. This is all my fault. I should have gotten up and checked on Annie. Maybe than she wouldn't have run away.", worried miss Campbell.

"why don't you just go and get her from their apartment?", asked Mrs. Benson.

"and what? Tango with Ashlie and Josh. No way....", replied miss Campbell before her office phone rang.

In a hurry, miss Campbell answered and said, "yes...."

Kelly was on the other end of the line and said, "Ashlie miles is here."

"send her in!", responded miss Campbell.

Mrs. Benson opened the door and Ashlie walked into the office nervously. "good morning.", Ashlie said as she seen miss Campbell stand up.

"where's Annie? You said she would be coming?", replied miss Campbell as she looked to see.

"miss Campbell....I don't know if Annie should play that show.", answered Ashlie honestly.

"what is this miss miles? Another one of your tricks!", said miss Campbell.

"why do you act this way with me? Your so sweet with Annie, but the minute you see me your mean as can be! Am I so different from her?", asked Ashlie.

Miss Campbell leaned against her desk and said, "yes."

"well can't you imagine I might be alright if you took the time to understand me?", pleaded Ashlie.

With her arms crossed, miss Campbell Said, "no I can not. Every time I see you it means trouble. You will do anything to cut Annie's throat."

"I'm not trying to cut Annie's throat! All I'm trying to tell you is that Annie isn't what she appears to be. Annie...", Ashlie was exclaiming when miss Campbell cut her off.

"miss miles, I know Annie and I know you. I wouldn't believe you under oath in court.", barked miss Campbell.

Ashlie was aghast and put her hands to her hips and said, "alright. That's the way you want it.", and turned for the door.

"just a moment! About the concert. If Annie doesn't play with the school of rock band it will cost me thousands of dollars and my name. So you should let her play. Its in two days. If she isn't there by four o'clock than I will send the police to get her. I don't trust you one bit to say the least. So make sure she's there.", boomed miss Campbell

Ashlie looked miss Campbell in the face and frowned, before turning and walking away.

As Ashlie got home she heard her phone go off and answered, "hello Josh."

"did you talk to her?", asked Josh.

"yes. I just got back from her office.", signed Ashlie.

"good girl. Now I'm going to make some plane reservations. There's one for two o'clock and five o'clock tonight? Which one should I pick?", asked Josh.

"I don't know....can't we do it Friday? I got so many things to do. Pack, pay some bills and close up the house.", answered Ashlie.

"what really? That's kind of bull shit. I thought we were leaving today? How about I come and help you pack.", said Josh.

"no its OK. I want to be by myself for awhile. I will see you Friday morning?", replied Ashlie.

"really? I haven't seen you in weeks and now you don't want to see me? You cheating on me....your going back to miss Campbell huh...that's it...", fished Josh.

"Its not what you think Josh. I just...", Ashlie responded.

"I just what? This is complete crap Ashlie and I should come get you right now and....", nagged Josh.

"no you won't Josh. I got to go....see you Friday....", Ashlie said as she hung up on Josh.

Ashlie looked at her trash can and seen the discarded training pant she was wearing the night before and knew what she had to do. She had to go back to miss Campbell and play that show. Ashlie walked into her room and began pulling out some clothes to get dressed up as Annie once more. She knew the right thing to do and she was about to give up her whole life for miss Campbell.

Miss Campbell was beyond excited to see Annie back at the front door of her house and as they walked into the living room Ashlie looked at miss Campbell and said, "can we talk?"

Miss Campbell smiled big and replied, "yes! Yes! About what dear?"

Ashlie took in a deep breath of air and was scared about what she was getting ready to do. She exhaled and said, "miss Campbell....I....I was scared about what you said the other night. About wanting to adopt me? So I ran away."

"well its a scary thing Annie.", responded miss Campbell.

Ashlie nodded in agreement and said, "lets do it....."

Miss Campbell jumped up from the couch and exclaimed, "are you serious?"

"yes....yes mom. I want you to adopt me.", she felt funny calling miss Campbell mom, but knew it was bound to happen.

Miss Campbell smiled big and bent down to hug Annie. As they were hugging, Annie pushed miss Campbell away and said, "one thing thou. Josh, uncle Josh. He plans on ruining the show. He's got some blog and was taking about making up some crazy sorry to slander your name."

Miss Campbell smiled and responded, "don't worry about him. I've got people to deal with that stuff. All we got to do is have you're sister sign these forms and problem solved."

Ashlie grabbed the forms from miss Campbell and looked them over. They were adoption forms with her name on it. Her new name, Annie Campbell. Ashlie looked up to miss Campbell and said, "can I take these to my sister and have her sign them? I want to see her one last time."

Miss Campbell nodded OK and watched Ashlie walk to the door. "I will be back in two hours....mom."

"keep safe daughter!", said miss Campbell as she began to tear up.

Ashlie rode her pink girls bike down the road and pulled into a public park. Once she found an empty bench she sat and looked around. The only people at the park were adults and kids. Fitting to her situation. If she didn't sign the papers she would be one of the adults. If she signed, one of the kids. Ashlie watched as the kids ran up and down the play structure and down the slides as the adults watched from the grass.

Ashlie no doubt would be subject to play at the park once or twice as Annie. She pictured herself going down the slide and sighed.

She leaned back on the bench and thought about the pros of signing the adoption form. If she did she would be famous, rich, loved, and part of a family she never had or knew she needed.

The con's were a little more simple. Be with Josh and semi happy. No famous life or reached dream, and live her life for the next eight years as a child.

As Ashlie looked the kids over one more time she flipped the folder open and signed the form. It was done. Ashlie was now going to be Annie Campbell, the famous ten year old guitar prodigy.

Ashlie got up off the bench and got on her bike. She needed to get miss Campbell these forms.

It was the night of the big show and the school of rock band manager was beyond nervous. "don't worry, she'll do great!", baked miss Campbell as she watched Annie walk on stage in front of thousands of people.

"I hope she does.", said the man as he looked around.

Just than Ashlie plugged in her guitar and looked at the other members of the band. After a settle head nod the band began playing and the crowd went nuts. Ashlie had reached her dream. As miss Campbell watched, she herself had gotten what she wanted. A daughter.

After the show ended Ashlie sat in her own dressing room and smiled. She had made it. She reached her dream. Not the way she expected it to be, but none of the less, she made it.

The dressing room door opened and miss Campbell walked in. "ready to go home honey?", asked miss Campbell.

Ashlie turned to her new mother and smiled. "I'm ready mom.", replied Ashlie as she got up and walked to miss Campbell.

As they were leaving the dressing room miss Campbell admitted, "I'm proud of you Annie. You did good."

Ashlie grabbed miss Campbell's hand and responded, "no. We did good. Now lets go home."

The end
