The boy was staring down at his feet.

This kind of behaviour will not be tolerated,the headmaster was saying.I have spoken to your parents on the telephone, and they have asked if i would be kind enough to deal with this matter myself rather than involve the police,and reluctantly i have agreed, but only to keep the good name of the school, no other reason. Do you understand?

Yes sir the boy replied whilst still looking down at his feet.

Stealing from other boys clothing in the changing room while they are swimming is a criminal act, the headmaster continued, and i intend to deal with you most severly. I am going to give you six strokes of the cane on your bare backside.

The boy at last looked up from his feet, to look wide eyed at the headmaster.

However because the punishment is to be administered bare, i will require the presence of another member of staff to act as a witness.You will wait here untill i return Johnson.Understand?

Yes sir Johnson replied,butterflies flapping around in his stomach.

The headmaster left the room , closing the door behind him. All was quiet as he walked along the corridor past several empty classrooms. School had finished thirty minutes earlier, and it seemed as if everyone had left to get an early start on the easter holidays. However as he looked in the window of the end classroom he saw a teacher sitting writing, but no this wouldnt do he needed a male teacher, and Miss Carter wasnt male by any strech of the imagination. No he would continue the search on the next floor.

Ten minutes fruitless searching later found him back outside Miss Carters room, he went in.

Miss Carter looked up.Mr Potter i hope you dont mind, but i wanted to finish these reports before i left.

No no not at all, however there is a very serious matter that i would be very obliged if you could help me with first.

Yes of course, what is it you want me to do?

Well normaly it would be unthinkable to ask a female member of staff, but you appear to be the ONLY member of staff apart from myself left in the building, and i have a boy waiting in my office waiting to be punished, and i need to have a member of staff to witness the punishment.

Oh i see, and what form of punishment is to be applied? She asked blushing slightly.

Six strokes of the cane on his bare behind, and because it is to be bare i need a witness.

But couldnt this wait untill the new term starts, and you have a male teacher to be your witness?

No i am afraid not. It was a very serious offence, and the boys parents have asked me to deal with it rather than involve the police. Now i realise this is rather embarasing for you, but i would regard this as a great personal favour.

Very well Mr Potter if you put like that,but can i just ask, what sort of age is this boy?

He is a sixteen year old fith former.Why is there some sort of problem with that?

No not at all.Probably a suitable punishment for a boy of that age.

Very well shall we proceed.They both left the classroom, and proceeded up the corridoor to the headmasters study.

David Johnson was getting bored.A good twenty minutes he had been waiting now, when the door swung open and in breezed the headmaster followed by OH MY GOD this couldnt be happening to me he thought.Miss Carter, the most attractive teacher in the school.Long blonde hair, late twenties, and a Jennifer Lopes type figure moulded into a tight black blouse and white bum hugging pencil skirt.Although the only one about to do any bum hugging in the next few minutes is me thought.

Mr Potter closed the door behind Miss Carter. Then got a straight backed chair from the corner of the room and placed it against the front of his big oak desk.

Miss Carter felt very awkward, she didnt know where to look.She didnt want to look at the boy,so she watched the head make his preperations. She watched as he opened a cupboard in the corner of the room, which appeared to contain about half a dozen canes of various lengths and thickness.he made his selection and swished it through the air a couple of times.It was about a quarter an inch thick and about three foot long with a crook handle.She wondered what sort of damage it would impart.

The head turned towards Johnson. Kneel on the chair boy and lower your trousers and underpants to your knees,then bend forward over the desk.

As Johnson did so he fixed his eyes on a point on the wall in front of him,and tried not to think of the view Miss Carter would have standing behind him as he felt his bum cheeks open up as he bent forward.

Mr Potter moved to the left side of the boy, giving Miss Carter a clear view of the proceedings.She watched as the head tapped the profered bottom twice then slashed it down hard on the defensless target. First a thin white line appeared which quickly turned to red about halfway up the bottom. The bending boy made no sound.

Two more taps and SWISH THWACK.
slightly higher up this time the boy made a knd of a grunt

Two more taps SWISH THWACK
About an inch higher again this time.

She watched his bottom move from side to side and heard a faint yow come from further forward.

Meanwhile Mr Potter lined up for the next stroke.
TAP TAP SWISH THWACK
This time just below the first stroke
He yelled out loud this time, and Miss Carter watched in fasination as the bottom in front of her wiggled from side to side vigoursly.

TAP TAP SWISH THWACK just above the crease line.
The boy yelled profusly while making pumping motions with his thighs intermingled with much wiggling as well.

The headmaster waited untill he had calmed down, and prepared to give him the last stroke.

TAP TAP SWISH THWACK.Right on the crease, the area where bottom meets the top of thighs.
Johnson yelled at the top of his voice,at the same time as rising up and clasping his tortured cheeks with both hands. He climbed down from the chair, and turned facing Mr Potter and Miss Carter rubbing his bottom vigoursly with tears streaming down his face.

Miss Carter wasnt sure where to look. he probably wasnt any more endowed than the average sixteen year old. But when one is jumping up and down in front of you only three foot away it was she felt rather awkward.

After two or three minutes of this behaviour. MrPotter brought things to a close. Thats enough now Johnson, get yourself dressed and get off home, and if ever you do anything similar in future you will be expelled and reported to the police.

As he turned and bent down in front of her to retreive his trousers and pants,Miss Carter looked at the six well spaced tramlines across his bottom,she wondered how painfull it must be.Judging by his reactions during and after, she didnt think she would like to find out.

After Johnson had shuffled out,Mr Potter turned to Miss Carter and thanked her for her time.

Thats quite alright Headmaster if you need a witness at any time, please dont hesitate to ask. She then turned with a smile and wiggled out of his study, and back down the corridor.
