Lipstick Lily

Send me a postcard, drop me a line.

***Dear Rings I send this postcad from me to yu becase I can't send it from yu to me. Glade yu are beta. hav fun in Australea. Lil xx***

Lily looked over the card clutched in her fingers. On the front was a picture of a girl and boy kissing like in the Pears soap commercials. All cute in the olden days not a photo, a painting, pretty but olden days looking. She ripped it up.

"Now why'd you go and do that for!" Richard frowned at her over the pile of postcards that lay all over the kitchen table "Give it here!"

"No!"

"Now Sweets!" Richy smiled indulgently at Lily as she blushed. She blushed again .. always around these boys she blushed. She liked him calling her that; He knew it, she knew it. She always blushed like red lollies.

"No, you are not my boss!" Lil pouted, lifting the two halves above her head.

"What are you- ten!? Give me the ripped to shreds postcard Lily" Ringo clicked his fingers and Lily grumpily handed over the remnants of the postcard. Richy laid them out on the table in front of him, pushing them together into the proper position. "Dear Rings..." He began to read "Awwww, I love my nickname you know"

"I know. As I love mine" Lily tinkered with the postcard to her left, it had a picture of the Eiffel Tower. Richy must have brought it back from Paris?

Was it Paris, or Spain?

Lil flipped the card over in her hand and looked at the writing on the back and made out the Eiffel bit and saw a big letter P, yep Paris... or was it Portugal......?

"We're here to help each other, don't rip up the postcards Lil."

"Why are we writing on all your blank postcards anyway?"

"Why not?" Ringo shrugged a none-the-bother shrug.

"Well you could keep them in an album or somewhere safe; and look at them"

"Boring! I may just have to have a kip now" Richy fake yawned and his blue eyes twinkled at her. "I think Australia is with an 'i' then an 'a' on the the end of it" Richy wrote the word again, correctly, on a sliver of the card in a free corner. Richy leaned over toward Lil "There. See"

"You are so smart"

"It was written on every damn thing- in Australia. When I was bound for Australia. And when we read papers in, funnily enough, Australia. Some things have to seep in the old noggin from time to time I suppose" Richy stubbed his cigarette out, shifted his chair about and patted his lap "Come here"

"Yes papa"

"You are being rather unruly today, I should give you a right paddling"

"Yes papa. Right you are papa. I like me paddling papa" Lily grinned evilly. Smirking as Richy moaned under his breath. "How are things....? Looking up?" Lily giggled as she wiggled.

"Why you little...." Richy tickled Lil to make her scream and they mucked around as is what usually occurs when Richy visits.

Chat, try and learn to write better, and muck around.

Sometimes, if Lily was extremely lucky, she got a kiss but Richy turned out to be shy in that department but he was still moved by her as she sat on his lap. He seemed to keep his distance and she was ever so grateful he was so gentleman-like. Not that the other boys weren't gentlemen-like but Richy just resisted sexual urges a little more fruitfully.
