Chapter 11

Pulling into her driveway Megan saw the familiar truck of Charles idling there. Grabbing her purse and laptop bag she got out of her SUV, moving over to greet the man she was forcing to be her boyfriend as he got out of his vehicle. “You are late.” Chuck said annoyed at having to wait just over thirty minutes for Megan to get home so he could leave his sullen brother with her.

“I’m sorry Charles, I know you need to get to work, but I had a meeting run late this morning. Now tell me How did last night and this morning go?” Megan looked through the drivers side window at Liam sitting there in his little white shorts and pink T-shirt that had a rainbow decale. The pigtails she left him with the day before were gone, but replaced with a high ponytail. He looked so upset sitting there with the stuffed purple elephant in his lap. With the child safety lock she told Charles to use, he had to just sit there until an adult came over to let him out.

“You know how bedtime went, I tucked him… her in with the stuffed animal, kissed Leah on the forehead and told her I loved her just like you said. When she said it was too early to go to bed I read her a bedtime story that I don’t think she enjoyed.” Megan placed her hand on the man’s forearm.

“Charles I’m sure she will treasure the memory of her Daddy reading her a story, but I meant before that. Did she cause you any trouble?””

The question made Chuck hesitate, he wasn’t sure if his brother's behavior reflected on his, like how she locked his dick away the previous day or if he could earn favor by being truthful and telling her how he punished him. “The night was an experience… more than once Leah stood in the corner reciting that motto you gave her, but I added a few lines. Think he… she spent more time with her nose in the corner than anywhere else. Not that she wanted to, but I gave her the option of getting spanked and she chose the corner every time.”

“Sounds like you are not too bad at this parent thing, but tell me. What new lines did you add?”

Liam glared at his brother, deciding he was worse than Megan. He was his flesh and blood and yet he was fully going along with everything. This morning he had taken him to the dentist who gave him braces like he was some child. He remembered a few years ago Bailey had braces put on, both Chuck and him had teased him for it, but now he felt the uncomfortable pain in his mouth. The dentist had an option for invisible braces and while he had spoken up that if he had to get braces that is what he wanted, the dentist just smiled and patted his arm, waiting for his brother to answer. In the end not only did they not get the invisible braces, but he ended up with a pink set.

The things in his mouth felt so odd, he couldn’t help but run his tongue across them like doing so would help with the constant uncomfortable feeling. The dentist said in about four days the pain would be gone, but told him how he was sure a big strong girl could handle it and be brave. Liam felt furious, but the threat of being spanked by his brother and it being done publicly was enough to keep him from saying more than a few words the entire time.

Opening the drivers side door Chuck held it out. “Leah, scoot out this way and tell Miss Megan the full motto you had to say last night when you misbehaved.” Liam looked between the two of them glowering.

“A good girl loves her Daddy and is a Daddy’s girl. A good girl always looks her best. A good girl is polite. A good girl is always obedient. A good girl always smiles. A good girl is seen and not heard. A good girl never argues or complains. A good girl never uses foul language. I am a good girl and a Daddy’s girl, happy and proud.” Liam said as he scooted over the other door, feeling a blush come to his cheeks as both of his tormentors watched him so the ridiculous line.

“I do just love that Charles, but I can tell we still need to learn how to practice what we preach. I don’t see much smiling happening Leah. Don’t worry we have plenty of time to help you grow into the woman you want to be. Now give me a hug hello and say goodbye to your father so he can head off to work.”

When they were back inside together Megan touched the ponytail on Liam’s head and glared at him. “We have a lot to do today, so how about you tell me what has you in such a bad mood so we can get past it.”

Liam motioned to his entire body looking at the woman like she was dumber that her niece. “How about all of this? How about I have pink braces? How about you stole my bedroom and my bike? How about the fact my boss said I had to come into work tomorrow or I would be fired?” Each sentence got louder and louder, Liam not even trying to talk in the feminine voice he had been **** to keep using constantly.

“One, you chose this over the alternatives, I think the braces look cute on you, those things belonged to your uncle and I’m sure he can collect them when the summer is over and you are too young to worry about a job. You wouldn’t want to be a mechanic anyways, you are such a sweet girl. I bet you would make a perfect nurse., Now enough with all of that, we have some things planned today. It is hot out today so I set up the sprinkler out back this morning so you can go change into the bathing suit I have laid out for you. Then you have some lessons before you can watch your show and if you are a good girl we can talk about you dressing like an older girl before we go shopping.”

“So you are going to make me lose my job?”

“Leah, you are an intelligent girl, you keep asking questions like that and it is going to make me think I need to talk to you like you are an airhead. Don’t make me repeat myself or I will treat you like a ditzy girl. You don’t have a job to be fired from Leah, but if you like I can see about setting you up to be a candy striper… I think they are called junior volunteers now. Well we can get you volunteer hours at the local hospital. It will look great for your college applications when you get older.”

Hanging his head low Liam started to follow Megan down the hallway, knowing for sure now he would be losing his job come tomorrow. “Leah, we talked about this. Back straight, chest out, head held high and smile. Posture is important for a young woman like yourself.” Adjusting his posture and putting a smile on his face Liam followed, now even more upset that she wouldn’t even leave him with that much agency.

On the bed in her daughter’s room was a one piece bathing suit that was pink and yellow with the words Barbie girl on it. “You expect me to wear that!?”

“I expect you to wear what I say, when I say it Leah. I expect you to wear your bathing suit with a smile on your face and I expect to hear you giggling with glee as you play in the sprinkler in the backyard. If you don’t you will be pulled over my lap and then I will set the sprinkler up in the front yard. Now what do you say?”

“I think it would be a lot of fun to play in the water out back with Miss Megan.”

“I am glad to hear it Leah. Tell me are you happy I’m dating your father?” Megan picked up and handed the girl’s bathing suit over, trying to act like it was an innocent question.

“Yes?” Liam said unsure what other answer she could want, even if it was incredibly far from the truth.

“I know your Daddy is very important to you, but I like to think we have fun too. Tell me on a scale of one to ten, how happy would you be if me and your Daddy got married? Then you could have a Mommy and a Daddy.” Megan could see the panic and fright in Liam’s eyes at the question. She didn’t even like calling Charles her boyfriend, the man was a great fuck but would never have gotten any closer than that. Liam didn’t need to know that, planting the seed in his mind was all she needed.

“Ahhh…” Liam tried to think, this woman pretty much just declared she was going to marry his brother and make him their daughter. If he didn’t answer correctly there would be consequences. “I would say an eleven, because you would make an amazing Mommy and you are so really pretty.”

“Aww that is so sweet of you to say Leah. Now we just need to see how you act for the rest of the morning to see if you get to grow up to be sixteen or stay as you are for the summer. It is the difference between flower girl and bride’s maid.”

She knew that would terrify Liam and it would get back to Charles ,and she could use that as a tool to keep them in their places. Do as you are told or this can go on much much longer. Megan smiled more thinking about it as she showed Liam how to tuck himself away as he put on the bathing suit and ran out the door. She turned on the water and was happy to see the little shit was acting like he should, a smile on his face. Giggling and squeals of joy coming from his mouth as he ran around, jumping through the water. She never got Bailey to do this, but seeing Liam having to act like this was a fun activity sure made her day, and it was just getting started.

Heading back to her daughter's room Megan pulled Liam’s cellphone from the back pocket of the white shorts. She should have done this yesterday, but had forgotten with everything going on. Liam didn’t need to be around and Leah shouldn’t be using her uncle's cell phone. By the time they got to the mall it was going to be left on a park bench, so someone else could take it away.
