All three of them

“And where do you think you’re going, young lady?” the Reverend enquired.

“Out walking, daddy,” the teenager responded.

“With whom do you intend to go out walking with on a Sunday afternoon?” her father persisted.

“Oh, just Ann, daddy,” Beth reassured him.

The Reverend nodded approvingly. Yes Ann would not lead his daughter astray. A polite young lady from a church going family. Not his church of course - some stuffy white folks’ church, but they couldn’t help that.

“Okay honey, but stay away from the army base, y’hear?”

The pretty black teenager slipped out of the door and greeted her friend, then the two of them walked to Veronica’s house. Beth hadn’t mentioned Veronica to her father. She wasn’t sure that he approved of the fiery tempered latina.

The three of them walked down to the river and considered what to do next.

“Skinny dipping or the army base,” Beth stated conclusively.

“Oh, I don’t know if we should visit the army base until we’ve practised kissing a bit more,” cautioned pretty blonde Ann.

“You mean on each other?” asked Veronica, with a knowing smile.

“Well yeah,” she confirmed with a blush.

“I think you enjoy practising too much,” pouted Beth, “its time we did it with real boys.”

They all burst into peels of laughter and Veronica commented that her friends were both wicked girls and deserved a spank.

“And I bet you would want to give it to us,” responded Ann knowingly.

Veronica said nothing.
