Author's note: This is a contest entry, so please give it a vote. It's a noncon about a girl that trusts a priest too much. I hope you like it.
"Oh, Father Harris," Fanny whispers, her voice lowering in shame. "I did it again." The final word is barely out of her mouth before she starts softly keening.
Fanny is a sweet girl.
Pretty.
Dark wavy hair and an engaging smile. Each week she kneels in the shadowy confessional, sharing her sins with Father Ned Harris. She is eighteen, the priest fifty. He sits quietly on his side of the booth. Cold blue eyes and a strong calculating chin. He waits for her to compose herself.
"Same boy?" he asks.
Her sobbing grows stronger. "No," she finally whimpers. A snort of laughter without any joy. Wiping her nose with the back of her hand, she whispers: "Someone else."
He doles out the forgiveness, as he does each week.
On Tuesday, he goes for a stroll through Carnal, wearing his black outfit with the stiff white collar. He meets Joe Murphy, a regular at the Sunday morning service. Joe looks pleased. They discuss the things men talk about on sunny afternoons in small towns. Soon the priest turns to go, but then he stops. Scratching the back of his neck, he winces.
"You know Fanny?" the priest asks. "The Franklin girl?"
Joe nods.
Fanny and his daughter are best friends. Everyone knows this.
The priest says Fanny's father has left his wife. Joe furrows his brow, looking the priest up and down. Harry Franklin left weeks ago. Everyone knows this, too. Small towns are like that.
"Fanny's malleable," the priest says. "Adjusting."
He purses his lips and lets his gaze wander. It's against the code to mention things from inside the box, but sometimes men break the code. Placing his hand on Joe's shoulder, the priest leans in.
"Promiscuous." He enunciates the word.
Joe's eyes widen.
Father Harris averts his gaze. "If you could reach out to her," he says.
"Me?" Joe scoffs.
The priest shrugs.
"Ned." Joe uses the priest's first name. These two have known one another a very long time. Joe looks down the street.
"Me?"
"It's a lot to ask," the priest says. "Think about it."
Father Harris turns on his heel and strolls off. Everyone knows Joe is a good man. And like all good men, he has his weaknesses. But sometimes the weak man is perfect for a delicate job.

Two weeks later, Fanny slips into the back seat of Joe's car with her best friend Tammy. Joe is at the wheel. It's late, and Fanny is high on ecstasy, sucking her thumb.
Tammy nibbles Fanny's ear. "I'm so wasted," Tammy whispers.
Joe is watching them in the rearview mirror.
Fanny squeezes Tammy's thigh, grateful she was with her tonight. The last few hours Fanny spent grinding her pussy against some boy's thigh. If Tammy hadn't been with her, Fanny would surely have sucked another cock. She makes a hum somewhere between disappointment and loneliness, nuzzling sweet Tammy's neck. Fanny puts her thumb back into her mouth.
"Daddy can you take me home before Fanny?"
At Joe's house, the girls hold one another before Tammy gets out. The overhead light makes Fanny wince. On the way to her house, she watches Joe from the backseat. He's got dark hair, dark eyes. A chin covered in stubble. He looks in the rearview and his eyes find hers.
He grins. "Have fun tonight?"
She pops her thumb out of her mouth to answer. They chat about nothing and then the car goes quiet, except for the radio. It's a comfortable silence. From out of nowhere she mentions the thing everybody already knows.
"My dad left," she says.
Joe meets her eyes. He says his dad did the same thing.
She's not sure why she told him about her dad. He reaches over the back of the seat, opening and closing his hand. She's not sure what he wants. Taking her thumb from her mouth, she presses her fist awkwardly against his palm. He takes her hand in his, giving it a reassuring squeeze.
He lets go of her hand to make the turn onto her street.
"Is your thumb wet?" he asks.
She makes a noisy snort around her thumb. "Yes," she laughs, apologizing, even though she's not really sorry. With ecstasy, she needs the comfort her thumb provides, but she doesn't tell him this.
He pulls over too soon. Her house is still a little ways up the block. Staring out the front windshield, he asks if they can talk before she goes home.
"Sure," she says around her thumb.
He turns off the car.
"Come up here," he says, toying with the radio.
When she slides toward the door, he asks her to just climb over. She starts to clamber over the seat and then stops.
"I'm wearing a skirt," she says.
He smiles, waving his hand in a gesture both inviting and dismissive.
There is something reassuring about the way he looks at her, the wave of his hand. She dives over the seat head first, then brings her feet over. He is gazing between her legs. When her bottom is on the seat, she swings her feet past his face. Grinning, he tilts his head to see her crotch.
"Good thing you're wearing underwear."
Her pussy throbs with forbidden desire, but her mind is muddled by the drug and she can't be sure if she's reading the situation correctly. Drawing her feet up on the seat, she puts her thumb back in her mouth. Her thigh and panties are exposed, but he's already seen more.
"Mr. Murphy, I . . . I didn't know you felt that way about me."
"Oh, honey." He slides closer, his arm on the seat behind her. He is gazing down into her cleavage. "You're an incredibly attractive girl, Fanny."
She can feel herself melting a little.
He compliments the size and shape of her breasts. He says that he has been watching her body develop and that she has blossomed into a beautiful young woman. Letting her thumb drop into her lap, she sits with her mouth open. Her breathing is coming fast and hard.
He asks to touch her breasts.
Before she can say anything his hands are on them, kneading and caressing them through her tank top. He wants to know if she met any boys tonight. Closing her mouth, she nods. Squeezing her thighs together, her hips have started to rock in time with her hard breathing. He wants to know if she has satisfied herself with the boys. Has she taken care of her needs. She creases her brow.
Satisfied herself? Needs? Boys?
"Wait, what are you asking me?" she wants to know.
His hand is between her legs, pressing against her swollen clitoris. It's so hard to think. She lets her knees fall open, raising her bottom.
He is looking at her.
