High School Project

Mike was beginning to get worried. His girlfriend Anna was already an hour and a half late. She was conducting an interview at the nearby prison for her Society and Culture project [1], and it was only supposed to take half an hour, but Mike had been sitting in the car for two hours already. Not wanting to cause a fuss he sat there nervously for two more hours before he saw Anna emerge from the front entrance. She looked nothing like the prim and proper girl who had entered the prison four hours ago, her hair was a mess, her lipstick was smeared, tears had streaked her makeup down her face, and her shirt and pants were just tatters she had wrapped around her otherwise naked body. She’d done a good job and was nearly completely covered from her collarbone down to her upper thigh. Mike was in shock, this was the most of his conservative girlfriend he had ever seen, and by the looks of it all the guards at the prison had seen even more.

As Anna drew closer and Mike saw the blank look on her face his shock quickly gave way to worry and he jumped out of the car and ran over to her. “What happened?” he asked, carefully putting his arm around her and walking her back to the car.

Upon hearing the worry in his voice Anna’s blank face was immediately replaced with placating smile. “Oh, don’t worry about me darling, I’m fine, just a bit of an accident.”

“A bit of an accident! But babe, all of your clothes–“

“Shh, I’m ok, I’ll tell you all about it when we get home.”

Not wanting to push her anymore, Mike decided to instead ask her how the interview had gone.

“It went wonderfully, it was so great to finally hear all those prisoners’ opinions on the things I’ve been researching for the last couple of weeks.”

“Well I’m glad you got everything, so we won’t have to go back there again.”

“We’ll see how it goes, I am booked in for the next two weeks and it would be a shame to waste this opportunity.”

Mike decided to bite his tongue, he could bring it back up again later when he’d actually found out what happened in there. As he listened to her talk about her project, Mike found it hard to keep his eyes on the road. Even though he knew he shouldn’t look, he couldn’t help but keep stealing glances at her gorgeous body. He could see the shape of her nipples through the fabric stretched across her breasts. They bounced little with every bump in the road.

“Mike! Stop that!” Anna said indignantly, “You don’t get to see all this until we’re married, and that’s not happening until we’ve finished high school.”

“Sorry, you’re just too beautiful.” Mike said slyly.

[1] For non Australians, Society and Culture is a subject offered to Australian HSC students (years 11 and 12), for which students are largely marked on one large Personal Interest Project, which requires students to conduct interviews with people with some sort of relation to whatever topic they choose to study.
