microfantasy monday: friends
—God…
—Quite.
—For something so bloody…
—I didn’t think it was.
—Painful, that was bloody terrific.
—It gets easier.
—It’s very wicked, isn’t it?
—Yes.
—Is it the wickedest thing you can do?
—Absolutely.
—And you made me do it.
—I did.
—I didn’t want to.
—No.
—And then you made me spunk.
—I did.
—Is that what happens to naughty boys?
—It is.
—What else happens to them?
—You know perfectly well.
—Do they get the cane?
—They do.
—Then do they get buggered?
—Good and hard.
—Is it very naughty?
—The naughtiest.
—Do it again.
—We ought to have some sleep, you know.
—I don’t see why.
—You’ll look like a raccoon at Chapel, for one.
—Do you suppose there’s something wrong with us?
—The game, you mean? It’s only pretend.
—But other people…?
—Damn other people. Other people do worse, and call it…
—What?
—Ordinary.
—I don’t want to be a pansy.
—You aren’t. We aren’t.
—What are we, then?
—Friends.
—Friends?
—And if two friends can’t be naughty together, what can they do?
—What if we’re caught?
—There’d be trouble.
—Would we be whacked?
—Oh, yes.
—Hard?
—Very hard.
—Before the whole school?
—And their mothers and sisters.
—Not that!
—Oh, yes. And then we’d be sent to Borstal, and you know what happens to boys there.
—Tell me.
—It’s late.
—We can sleep when we’re dead. Tell me…
Those schoolboys have been at it again. They really aren’t safe for work. Make of them what you will, but I thought these were the same who appeared in “Dawn,” and they certainly attend the same school as those in last’s week’s “Cricket.” I simply cannot explain their rudeness except to say they appear to inhabit an era different from our own.
Microfantasy Monday is the brainchild of Sweltering Celt. The theme this week was sleep.

That last line absolutely makes it for me “we’ll sleep when we’re dead”. Brilliant! Beautifully done!

Interesting. I like that there’s some information about where the boys are, but nothing concrete.

And if two friends can’t be naughty together, what can they do? …. exactly. I enjoyed this

Oh, I like this! In fact, I had to go back & read the prior episode with the boys. And that led to me reading your other MfMs. I must say, I do like your style. For some reason I think of a perverted Neil Gaiman. Will be back for more!

You sweet little pervert, you – naughty booys indeed. What about the naughty authoress?
Delightful sequence
