Chapter One, Part Two
It was the day after Sam road in the child seat with her Aunt, the dinner had been nice, as she had expected half the kids there were in PJs and most of the adults weren’t dressed up either so she had been “ok”. Surprisingly none of her family had seemed to remember or care how she had arrived, a great relief to her.
It was early afternoon when her Aunt asked her if she would like a ride to the mall with her and Amanda, the rest of the family were already there (her Aunts sleep medication keep her sleeping almost as Late as Sam) After a brief moment's thought she decided to respond in the positive: two things led to this decision; the first was that she really did want to do some shopping, the second was the small part of her that hoped there would be some way to ride in the seat again.
Sam told her Aunt she would love a ride in and got off the couch where she had been watching TV to follower her upstairs. She was wearing a pair of tight fitting blue denim capris and a light tank top; her brown wavy hair was loose around her and hung to just below her shoulders.
“Just hand on a minute while I get my coat” Her Aunt headed to the front of the house leaving Sam at the side door by the driveway. She could hear Amanda and her daughter Kaylee (who had recently turned 2) in the other room, Alone Sam looked out the window, there were two vehicles in the driveway, the large Van they had ridden in the day before and Amanda’s car. Sam felt her heart sink. She heard her Aunt rummaging around in the front closet still and glanced at the hooks by the side door, the hooks where her family kept their keys. Sam bit her upper lip and considered this course of action carefully, although only for a brief moment, if she did this it couldn’t come back to her, also Amanda would have to get it back, she wouldn’t be responsible for that kind of inconvenience. Shaking Sam reached out and grabbed the key for her older cousin’s car, slipping it into her own pocket. Her heart was beating so rapidly she was sure the older women would hear it, or see it pounding right through her top, that or her legs shaking.
A moment later her aunt came back around the corner with Amanda and Kailee. Amanda was Sam’s cousin but she was also her senior by 14 years, today she was wearing a pair of loose fitting white pants and a simple T-shirt. Amanda was a bit of a go-getter and, while not without a sense of style, tended to dress functionally.
“Ok ready to go?”
Sam nodded, still chewing on her lip subconsciously. Amanda reached for the key on the hook, noticed its absence, she stopped, checked her purse, looked on the matt. Her aunt noticed and let out one of her “family friendly” curses something like, “Fudge puppy”.
“Well it has to be here somewhere I just used it to get here”
Sam decided a contribution might help her appear innocent “Maybe in the car?”
Amanda went out to check and returned shortly shrugging her shoulders.
It was her Aunt that finally made the call Sam had been hoping for “Well I suppose we'll just take the Bus for now, it has to be here somewhere, we'll get everyone to help look when we get back” Amanda reluctantly agreed, the teen girl let out a sigh of relief to herself.
Sam was careful to be the last one out the door and, pretending to have to stop to tie her shoe, slipped Amanda’s key into the toe of a shoe directly beneath the line of hooks.
Sam hurried up to reach the car she immediately noticed that her plan was about to fail; her aunt was in the process of preparing to remove a seat from the car for her.
Sam hesitated, she hadn’t been prepared for this, she had expected her aunt to ask her to ride in it again, so she could act annoyed and then reluctantly agree. She supposed she should have seen it coming, the only reason her Aunt had asked her the first time is that it would have mean two trips to get the discarded seat, on top of that they had been late. Sam tried to gather her courage, she had already committed, and she hadn’t gone this far to just ride in the van instead of the car. NO WAY. She tried to steady her voice as much as she could, Sound Natural.
“Ow that’s ok Debbie, I don’t mind it”
Her Aunt turned to her,
“Sorry?”
Sam’s heart sank she had hoped it would be over at that.
“Ah-“ (her voice was starting to give out, she had to end this discussion now) “The seat, I don’t mind, don’t trouble yourself”
Her Aunt looked a bit confused, but smiled
“Are you sure? It's no trouble this time, I only asked you to put up with it before as it would have meant two trips for Ted”
“Ya it's fine, it really doesn’t bug me at all” (That was too weak she had to think of something better, a better reason, Amada was looking at her) “I’m probably safer in that anyway right?”
Her Aunt took it
“Yes! There is that!” She stepped away from the seat. “If only more kids your age would be so mature about their safety, how many disasters could be avoided? It bothers me to no end to see kids that still have 2 or 3 years in a proper car seat being pushed in boosters or, good heavens, JUST a seat belt, do you know what kind of damage can be done…” her Aunt droned on, that was a perfect move, her aunt was a huge safety Nazi.
Her Aunt was busy moving junk out of the passenger seat for Amanda as Sam approached the back seat. Amanda was just finishing getting Kailee buckled into her baby seat, Sam looked at the seat in the back. The web of straps still hung from it in the arrangement she had gotten out of them, no one had used the seat sense. Sam remained standing by the door of the car looking at the seat unsure of what course of action to take.
“Come on silly” That was Amanda; she had just finished with Kailee. “This was your idea” Amanda gestured her towards the seat. Hesitantly Sam climbed up into the back of the van, an impatient Amanda placed and hand on her shoulder and pushed her toward the seat, Sam suddenly found herself sitting in the soft foam of the car seat, she couldn’t believe it had worked she was in it again. Amanda snapped her fingers. “Hey dreamer, common arms up” Amanda tapped the bottom of her arm to reinforce the point. Sam shifted forward and raised her arms above her so Amanda could extract the straps from behind her. The older woman held out the left half of the harness.
“Through here”
Sam stuck her arm through the loop and Amanda held repeated the process with the Right half, again Sam stuck her arm through the loop. Amanda then placed a hand on Sam’s stomach and pushed gently.
“Shift back”
Sam shifted in the seat until her back was up tight and straight against the seat back and she could feel the seat against the small of her back. Amanda did not remove her hand but kept it pressed against the younger girl's stomach, using her free hand to pull the remaining strap out from under Sam’s but Sam tried to shift as the strap was pulled out from under her but Amanda was being surprisingly unforgiving in handling her and kept her pressed back.
Amanda took a moment to gather the girl’s hair and position it in front of her where it wouldn’t get caught in the straps. She held the loose end of the crotch strap in the hand pressed against Sam’s stomach and used her other hand to clip in the two sides of the harness to it. The harness was already quite snug as it was still set to her body from when Debbie had performed this action the day before. It snugged up a bit more when Amanda connected the chest clip and slid it to just over the girl’s breasts.
Sam shuffled a bit in the seat, shrugging first on shoulder then the other against the shoulder straps and shifting her but forward against the strap and then back against the seat, it was all pretty snug and didn’t allow for a whole heck of a lot of movement. Apparently Amanda wasn’t finished tho.
“Hold on a sec and stop squirming like a 6 year old” Amanda stuck a few fingers under each of the shoulder straps and then not satisfied she pulled on the loose end of a strap between Sam’s dangling legs causing the whole harness to tighten up even more. Now the shoulder straps where pressing her down into the strap over her lap and, more intensely, into the strap that came up tightly between her legs, Sam tried to press up and away from that strap but the straps over her shoulders wouldn’t give her any leeway.
“There we go” Amanda patted Sam’s shoulder and smiled as she moved away and exited the Van.
The ride to the mall would last about 15 min, Amanda had done up the straps significantly tighter than her Aunt but Sam didn’t mind at all. Where as in her first ride Sam had shuffled and pushed herself against the straps, this time she really could barely move. With the shoulder straps tightly hugging her upper body and the crotch strap making any shifting forward impossible; the best she could manage movement wise was to partially shrug one shoulder, and even this slight movement pushed her down into the strap between her legs, that combined with the lap belt that prevented her from shifting side to side at all, meant that squirming around was all but impossible.
Still Sam gave it her best using the same tricks as before, pushing her feet against the floor to push herself up, shrugging her shoulders to try and wriggle around, but really she wasn’t moving at all. Another key difference in this ride was her clothing whereas last time she had been wearing her PJs this time she was wearing short shorts and a tank top. While her Pj’s had been thick and warm and she had enjoyed the sensation enormously the short shorts and tank top provided much less padding, combined with the extra tightness of the harness the effect was that Sam felt the harness wrapped around her much more strongly. The shoulder straps of the harness where wider than the thin fabric straps of her top, the feel of the belts against her bare skin, pressing her down into the seat was something she had not experienced last time, Similarly her thighs were bare on the seat, she hadn’t realized how smooth and soft the fabric was, her shorts also provided little to know padding against the crotch strap. Sam tried to shift again, struggling to pull herself away from said strap; despite her best efforts the harness held her securely and relinquished not an inch against her.
After what seemed to same to have been far too little time her aunt pulled the vehicle into the parking lot for the Mall. If Sam had been able to she would have slumped down in her seat in disappointment, as it was she went slack but the harness held her body in the same upright position it had held a moment ago. A moment later Sam’s Aunt was helping her out of the seat and down onto the pavement below.
It was a strange thing indeed for Sam to be so distracted in such a large mall. Although over the course of a few hours thoughts of the car seat and how it felt to be tightly strapped into it did fade from her mind as she moved among the stores and various clothing shops with her cousins. They grabbed a late lunch in the food court and wrapped up their shopping. It was just as they were leaving the mall that Amanda turned to Sam’s mom.
“Do you think I could borrow Sam tonight? I’m going to need some help getting ready for dinner tomorrow” she turned to Sam “If you wouldn’t mind that is”
Sam made a habit of helping out with her relatives as much as possible.
“No not at all, but don’t you need to get a ride with us or my Aunt?”
Amanda smiled
“Nope, me and Kevin” (Kevin was Sam’s cousin in Law, Amanda’s husband) “went back a few hours ago and found my key, can't believe we didn’t find it sooner, It was in a shoe on the matt”
Sam tried to look surprised
“owww ok good, ahh ya sure i'll come with you then”
She turned to her mom to confirm permission to do so, her mom gave it and Sam moved off With Amanda.
