Well it wasn't quite that straightforward, I was actually spanked for
pulling the rear view mirror off - completely off - the windscreen of
P's car. I didn't even know they could come off, I thought they must be
moulded into the glass or something when the cars were made. Anyway I
found out, as we were entering Waitrose car park, they can come off and
it did when I turned it to towards me to adjust my lipstick. It fell
down and just swung there from a bunch of cables. P wasn't amused.
"Well don't just leave it swinging," he said, "support it until I park and then I'll sort it out."
I felt guilty but then angry that it had fallen off, I hadn't wrenched
it or anything. Well we parked and P took hold of it and after a bit of
figuring out, took the case off and unplugged the cables and laid it on
the back seat. He couldn't understand how it had parted from the glass,
there were no marks or holding bracket or anything.
"I wish you hadn't done that," he said. "Why did you do it anyway, you
don't need lipstick on to shop and you've got a mirror your side, why
the hell twist the driving mirror round."
I knew I'd get the blame, I told him they were meant to twist weren't
they, I mean to adjust for different drivers. Then I said it was
probably all the bumps the car manages to find on the roads that had
shaken it loose. He told me not to be so ridiculous. I said well it's
done, are you coming inside? He said it was a bloody nuisance and would
have to be fixed. Well that was obvious.
We got the stuff we needed but driving out from the car park P took a
right at the roundabout instead of a left which would have taken us into
town. I asked him where he was going and he said to the garage he uses
to see if they could fix it. Pointless, I said, just phone them and take
it in whenever they can do it but P didn't see it that way, funny how
men can get so heated about their cars. He still hadn't gotten over me
using it in the first place and reminded a couple of times it was my
fault. It's less than ten minutes to the garage and P stopped and spoke
with the owner who he knows. He came over to the car and looked inside,
just one glance and out again shaking his head to P. He told him they
couldn't do it, the fixing disc had sheered away with the mirror and a
windscreen specialist would be best to fix it. He gave P a card from the
office with a name and number.
"See the trouble you've caused. So I've got to get a windshield company
to fix it. Ridiculous, I've never had this happen before in all the
years I've been driving."
"Bloody car," I said. I've never liked it.
Well that did it. We were only five minutes from where we live and P
just drove straight home. I knew what it meant of course, I was going to
get my backside warmed. I told him I'd pay for the repair but he said
that wasn't the point, it was the inconvenience and the stupidity and
'unnecessariness' of it, all because of my bloody lipstick. I told him a
girl's lipstick is part of her dress and the mirror must have been crap
anyway and would probably have fallen off on the motorway when he was
driving and how would he have liked that. Stupid German car.
We got home and P took me straight upstairs after dumping the shopping
in the kitchen. He must have been stacking up a few scalding phrases on
the short drive, he wouldn't have been happy with my attitude and I knew
I could have put things better but frankly I didn't want to, I like the
kind of spanking I knew was coming every now and again. When I know
he's genuinely pissed with me but I also know it won't drag on. So I
ended up across his lap in the office with my knickers dragged down to
my thighs getting my bottom reddened whilst my husband shouted the riot
act at me, what I should and shouldn't do, not caring about the damage
I'd caused, blaming the car, never taking responsibility lah - de - dah
etc etc. I argued back a bit but eventually gave up and took my medicine
then after several minutes struggling and squealing started saying
sorry and pleading with him to stop. He did finally but had to have the
last words.
"And don't you dare ever even think of putting your precious lipstick on in my driving mirror again! Understood?"
"Yes P. I'm sorry really I am." I think that's the part he really
likes. If he were a gorilla he'd be standing up beating his chest but
instead he just told me to put myself straight, whatever that means, and
he went off downstairs. A couple of minutes later he was back, I was
still in the office. He told me to get myself ready we were going into
town. I said what about the car.
"Oh I've just spoken with the windscreen bloke, he can't come for a
couple of days but he can definitely fix it and it will be good as new."
"You mean you can drive it, the loss of vision won't bother you, it's
legal not to have the mirror up?" I asked. He said yes to all that, no
problem.
"Then you spanked my bottom really hard for no reason?" I asked with a pout.
"Not at all. I had lots of reasons and I told you them while you were
over my lap. Do you need a reminder?" He patted my bum through my jeans,
it was sore and I winced. I didn't need a reminder, a trip to the
bedroom would have been welcome though. I didn't say that, I made do
with town instead.
The mirror hasn't been fixed yet but when the guy comes to do it I'll
make sure I pay if I'm around. Just to show him I do care and I do
listen.
Have a fun weekend.
