Ch 65

Beth was so deep in thought that the men got close to her before she even noticed them. They were almost within arm's length when the shadow caught Beth's attention. Beth turned around startled, ready to scream knowing that it probably wouldn't do any good. Beth has a terrified look on her face as she thinks that she has been caught by the guard and will be dragged back to the prison.

The man who is closest to Beth calls, "Beth Smith is that you." He was already pretty sure it was considering the lack of women that was around.

Beth stammers out, "Yes I'm Beth."

"The governor sent me to get you fitted for a dress. I will need to take some measurements of you. So, you will have to come with me. Sorry about the fact that the colors of fabric will be limited, and since you need it for tomorrow the fashion will be limited as well. But we will make you look wonderful. Just come with me to my shop." the tailor says.

Beth took a hard swallow. As she realized what was going on. They were not the guards at all. As she looked at the tailor it was easy to tell that there was no way that he would have ever been confused as a guard. The man to his right was one of the guys that had followed her around before. The third she had never seen before and didn't seem all that interested in her, but she was sure he was not a guard.

Beth follows the tailor to his shop he quickly scribbles down her measurements. As he shakes his head looking at what she has on noticing that it is a few sizes too small. He angrily throws away the measurements that he had taken down turns to Beth and says, "This will never do. You need to take that thing off so that I can get your true measurements if I am to make you something that you will be able to wear." Shaking his head, realizing that she had nothing on under it he says, "There are some undergarments that you can have in the back."

Beth blushes at the mention of undergarments knowing that he knows that she only has the dress on. Beth nods and heads to the back room so that she can change. At first, Beth sees nothing for her to put on then she hears him telling her that they are in the top drawer of the dresser. Beth looks and sees a variety of pink panties and bras with a large variety of cup sizes. As she starts to wonder why they are there she hears the tailor say, "Can you hurry this along? It will take all night to finish this in time."

Beth yells out, "Sorry." As she grabbed a lace bra that was her cup size. Looking at the lace panties that he had sitting there she just took the one that covered her the best. She avoided the ones that were thongs or were simply not going to cover her enough.

Once she had what she wanted she stripped off the dress and got into the bra, and panties, but hesitated to look for something to cover up with. She finally saw a robe hanging nearby, put it on, and walked out still blushing.

The tailor looks at her and just shakes his head and motions to her to hurry up and take her place on the pedestal. So, he can get the true measurements for the dress. He directs her to hold her arms up as he slides the tape measure under the robe. Jotting done everything he needs then tells her to go get dressed, and she can have the undergarments. Since it looks like she needs them worse than he does.

Beth blushes as she notices a pink bra strap showing under his shirt. She realizes that the bras and panties were the tailor's personal stash. They were something that he used for himself, and that is why the cup sizes were so varied. A shiver ran down her spine but then realized it was just fabric and she had to admit they were sexier than anything that she owned now.

Beth left the panties on but still had to remove the bra in order to get the dress on besides not wanting the straps to show. She stopped and thanked the tailor for the gift and he could see how sincere she was being and what it meant to her. His demeanor changed from one of just being upset. Because he was being forced to hurry and make this dress. To one of someone who was making something for someone who would truly appreciate his efforts.

Beth hesitated wanting to ask something but she didn't want to ask so much already getting so much. He noticed the hesitation in her and said, "Go on and ask, I know you are dying to ask something." He was hoping the question was not going to be about the bras and panties.

Beth said, "It's just I know your fabric is limited but is there any way that you could make it match the pink in the bra and panties I just am so limited in what I have here. I know it's a lot to ask."

He looked at her and thought about his secret stash of stuff. Then nodded thinking that if he was going to do this he might as well go all out. To make her look truly beautiful instead of just a loose slut.

He said, "I will do my best dear." letting out a little of his true personality. He lightly touched her arm and said, "I hope you really turn his head." Giving her a smile.

Beth smiled back warmly, not being able to thank him enough for his efforts. He smiles and waves as Beth picks up her things and leaves. Leaving him to get started knowing just how short the time was going to be.

Beth had not expected that delay and found herself in more of a rush than she had been in before. She knew she had the food and that Deen and the others would be coming soon. She wanted to make sure that she was out of this silly dress way before they got there. She had taken it off and put it on way too many times. Each time she put it on it became just a little harder for her to get it back on. The last thing she wanted was to have the darn thing ripped out. There was no way she wanted to be stranded someplace with a shredded dress around here. Especially with all the guys just looking for a reason to use her.

As Beth reached the hotel, she was glad at least with her arms full of groceries she was not going to have to worry about Jim just staring at her chest. Then she remembered that she was going to have to actually have to talk to him. She remembered the key to the room that she was supposed to drop off on her way out but his sudden appearance right in front of her kind of freaked her out.

Beth made sure that she held the bags of groceries high in her arms as she entered the hotel. Just as she thought he would be, Jim was sitting on his little stool watching everything. A big smile came to his face as Beth approached, and this was what he hoped for every time she came in. He sees she is carrying some bags and thinks what a shame he really likes the way that she looks in that dress. His eyes bulge a little as he notices the lines of panties on her hips.

Beth rolls her eyes noticing that he is no longer staring at her chest he is looking at her crotch. Beth shifts and turns sideways so that he is not looking right at her and says, "I have the room key."

He looked up into her eyes in a slight panic thinking that she was leaving. Then remembered that she was supposed to return the key to the room that she moved out of. Jim said, "Oh okay thank you for returning it."

Then Beth realizes that she is going to have to set down her bags in order to dig the key out of the purse that she was carrying. Beth starts to set the bags on the floor when she realizes that is going to give him the perfect look down the top of her dress, so she moves up to the counter and puts the bags down there.

Jim watched as she started bending over and then got disappointed when she stopped and set them on the counter. Beth handed him the key and then made her way to her room knowing that his eyes were on her the whole time.

Beth thought at least he was only looking and not commenting or hitting on me or asking me to do things for him.

Beth breathed out a sigh of relief as she got to her door. She had thought that none of the guards should be after her. Even if somehow, Rodger convinced them to try and collect what they wanted from her. She doubted that it would be this soon, or even in broad daylight. As she opened the door to the sounds of her kids laughing and playing it lit up her heart. They had been so sad and lifeless in the other room, and she knew it was just that they barely had room to move around, and now everything was a lot better.

Once again as soon as Sadie saw her, she exclaimed, "Mother."

Beth looked at her and wondered what was going on this time, she looked down at her dress and it was right side out and on correctly.

Sadie rolled her eyes and stormed off into the room that the girls had chosen as their own.

Beth handed the groceries to Tommy and said, "Go ahead and put these away for me. I will be out in a minute."

Tommy took them and gave her a big smile as he took them and said, "Sure thing Mom."

Beth went to Sadie to see just what was going on with her. As Beth entered the room Sadie turned looking away. Beth took her arm and turned her, so she was facing her. Beth saw that Sadie had tears running down her cheek. Beth was now more concerned than she was before and she asked, "What's wrong?" Nothing Beth could think of made any sense to her.

Sadie tried to turn away instead of talking until Beth stopped her. Sadie tries to pull away, but Beth doesn't let her move until she says what's on her mind. Sadie finally says, "Just look at you. You have panties on now, and you didn't have any when you left. You have changed so much Mom. It's like you can't keep your clothes on." Sadie starts crying harder.

Beth is shocked and taken aback by her words. Beth waves her hand and says, "No. No. It's not what you think..." Beth takes a breath, not really ready to explain it to her but needing to just to ease Sadie's mind. Beth says, "You know the job that I explained to you. Well, someone invited me to supper tomorrow and I have to go. But they are making me a new dress for it. I have to go it is not like I have a choice. Well, in order for them to make the dress the correct size they had to measure me. The dress I had on was just too tight to get the correct measurements. So, I had to take it off, and they gave me these things so I could be measured. That is all it was really."

Sadie looked up at her half in disbelief but still trusted her. Sadie thinks it's still strange that she seems to keep coming home and having it look like she has taken off her dress. Especially when she does not want to do anything with her dad. The more that she thought about it the stranger it became to her that earlier her dress was inside out and backward, and it was the only thing that she had on but she was upset at her dad. Something was not making sense to her.

Beth had returned to the kitchen part of the middle room to deal with the food. She knew that getting things started for supper and that the guards would be there before too long. She was going to have to tell them all about her going away for supper tomorrow.

Sadie was just left there pondering over what was going on, not knowing exactly what her mom was up to, but thinking she was still acting really strange.

Beth had Tommy bring the cots in and put them together as a temporary table so they could at least have a place to put everything. Beth went from room to room using all three stoves since they were so small that she could speed things up. Beth was not sure how much the guards would eat but she thought based on how much Tommy wanted to eat that she needed a lot.

As the time drew close for the guards to arrive Beth questioned what she should wear in front of them. She really wanted out of this tight-ass dress. Knowing that even if she made food there was no way the dress would allow her to get any bigger without ripping out.

Beth had the oldest two watch the food while she took the best thing that she had brought with her that actually fit properly and not forgetting her new bra she went down the hall to the bathroom to her dressed.

As Beth slips off the dress and gives a sigh of relief, as she hears the door rattle. Beth calls out that she is in there and then the door violently is pulled. She knows that if she hadn't locked it the door would have opened. Beth instantly thought about the fact that she hadn't looked when she went into the bathroom to make sure no one was around or watching her.

 Beth freezes in panic unsure what she can do being trapped in the bathroom.
