This story is a work of fiction and all characters are over the age of 18.
My characters have taken on lives of their own. I'm not so much creating the chapters as writing them down as the characters live them. Comments are welcome, especially if they give me direction on themes and what aspects of their lives I delve into as the story unfolds.
I've edited this chapter myself, so all blame for typos and grammatical errors lies with me. That caveat aside, I hope you enjoy this segment as much as I did writing it.

Ann and Janice stopped at Janice's house so she could change and get some parental funding for the mall. "Mom, can I have some money for clothes? I've got some of my own but want to take advantage of the 'back to school' sales." Janice had worked hard all summer with a landscape company and was dedicated to saving as much of her paycheck as possible. Still, some cash from the 'parental units' would help stretch her budget, especially since some secret lingerie purchases were planned by both teens.
After Janice extracted $50 from her mother and changed into easy-to-doff top and skirt, the girls headed to Midtown Mall in search of deals and diversions.
"I don't think Mom will let me stay over again tonight. Maybe I should ask if you can crash with me. The only thing missing will be your brother." Janice made a moue as she remembered the reaming Alex gave her ass a half day earlier.
Ann shared her friend's disappointment, wanting to wish the time away so her brother could deflower her. "I'll do my best to keep your mind off Alex. In the meantime, we have shopping to do!" Ann grabbed Janice's hand and towed her in the direction of the bus stop, waving vigorously to alert the driver as he neared their stop.
Riding to the mall they discussed their plan of attack, calculating what they could buy and their parent's reactions to some of the planned purchases. Janice had a hiding spot in her room for the tight top and skimpy underwear she planned to buy. Getting it into the house would be easy; Ann could stash the contraband in her bags and then transfer it to the unnoticed shelf atop Janice's closet.
Ann had no hiding spot prepared but was counting on her brother to help find a way for her to stash her forbidden purchases. As a college junior, their parents never investigated his bedroom. They knew he worked hard to maintain his scholarships and worked to have his own money. Jane rarely checked her daughter's belongings but Ann didn't want to risk 'clothes inappropriate for teenage girls' being discovered and chastised for buying them. Ann especially didn't want any sex toys to be discovered. This was one of her goals for today's shopping expedition. There was an adult entertainment shop down the street from the mall that the girls were planning to visit after making a small purchase at Target so they would have a misleading shopping bag for their booty.
Target bag in hand, the girls quickly walked out of the mall and down the street to the sex shop. Walking past, they looked through the window to ensure nobody they knew was inside, surprised to find a well-lit, spotlessly clean store. Their first pass allaying their fears, the duo circled back and quickly entered.
A saleswoman greeted them cheerfully, leaning over the counter and gently waving them further into the establishment. "I'm Luann. What can I help you with? If it's your first time here, I can show you the various departments and provide information on anything you don't understand. Here's a shopping basket. Were you looking for anything in particular?" She thrust the basket into Janice's hands and continued to chatter about the contents of the various aisles, watching for an expression of interest from the quiet girls. At the mention of vibrators, Ann's eyes flickered, betraying her interest.
"Ahh, I think I know what might interest you," said Luann. "We have a selection of vibes that are very popular with the ladies right over here," she said, steering Ann into the next aisle with Janice following close behind. "Here's a basic bullet vibrator, not too large, fairly quiet and discreet. It even fits into a handbag for trips or outings. I still use one when my husband and I go out of town." She opened a package and handed the sleek pink dildo to the nervous young woman. Ann slid her fingers over the smooth surface, wondering what it would feel like stuffed into her pussy. Luann continued, "Here's a line of textured dildos in a whole range of sizes." She lowered her voice. "I assume you don't have much experience with personal pleasure toys so I'm going to make some recommendations. The bullet vibe is a great general toy to begin with; it cleans up easily, is very well made and will give you an idea of what features you want for future purchases. If you're feeling adventurous, one of these lifelike dildos with the silicone skin is an excellent choice. It also has a built in vibrator. I'd recommend a medium size as an initial purchase."
Janice blurted, "We'll take two of the bullet," coloring slightly as Ann quickly looked at her. Feeling a little bolder after breaking the ice, she continued, "Where are your butt plugs and lube?" She became acutely aware of her still-tender sphincter as she spoke.
Luann led them down another aisle to a large display of colorful tapered plugs in a variety of sizes. "I'd suggest buying 3 sizes so you can ease into the experience", she grinned. "It's important to wash them after use and use lots of lube when inserting one. If you want to wear one under street clothes, this model works quite well. It's undetectable under most clothing unless you really bend forward and push your butt out. See?" Luann chuckled at the shocked expressions on her young customer's faces as she turned away from them and bent over. They could barely make out the narrow base against the seam of her fitted slacks. She turned back to the gape-mouthed teens and handed Janice a flip top tube. "I recommend this as a really good lube. It's non-greasy and doesn't irritate my skin. Are you going to share these or would you each like your own set?"
Without missing a beat, Janice replied, "I'd like my own set of these," as she reached for another trio of butt plugs. "We should get another couple of tubes of lube too." Turning to Ann she said, "We can both try the vibrators and see what we like so we don't spend too much today, OK?" Ann nodded her assent as the front door chimed.
Glancing through the boxes on the top shelf, Ann saw her father. She paled and turned to Luann. "My Dad just came in. He can't find us here!"
