Author's Note: I take full responsibility for this slightly offbeat idea.
Background: This story is a spoof on the characters from the Archie comic books. For those who may not know, Archie comics have been published for decades in the US. They're about a group of high school students who never age. There's Archie, meant to be your typical American teenager, his best friend Jughead whose main interest in life is eating, the oh-so-nice Betty, the bitchy and stuck-up Veronica, Reggie the asshole, Dilton the boy genius, Moose the dumb jock, and Chuck and Nancy, the token black couple. Anyway, there are tons of spanking possibilities with these characters. This is just one of them. If people respond positively to this story, I may write more using these characters.
* * * *
Veronica Lodge was standing in line at the cafeteria at Riverdale High. While she actually ate very little food for lunch (have to watch the figure, you know!) she liked to be seen. She was well aware that she was one of the most beautiful girls in school and having the boys drool over her fed her considerable ego. Of course, most of them she wouldn't even give the time of day, but they could look.
Her best friend Betty Copper was standing next to her. Betty was also beautiful, but Veronica didn't feel threatened by her. Betty's beauty was more of the girl-next-door type rather than the glamorous look Veronica had. Of course, Veronica was aware of the fact that Betty didn't have to work at looking the way she did, but this didn't bother her any. Plus, Betty sometimes asked Veronica for tips, and this was very gratifying.
"Your tan looks really good, Ronnie," Betty was saying. "I haven't seen you at the beach, though. You didn't go to a tanning salon did you?"
"Thank you, Betty. No, I don't fool with tanning salons. And I prefer to work on my tan before I go to the beach. I don't want anyone to see my in my bikini until I already have a great tan."
"So what do you do?" Betty asked.
"Well, I do have this lovely pool in my backyard. I lay there in the afternoon. I don't get disturbed and I don't have to worry about tan lines."
"Oh, why not?"
"Promise you wont tell?" Veronica asked in a whisper.
"Of course, Ronnie," Betty answered.
"Well, I sunbathe topless."
"Gee, I sure can't do that at the beach. You're lucky to have your own pool, Ronnie."
"Well, you're welcome to come over anytime you want, Betty. I'd enjoy the company."
"How about today, then?"
"Sure! We'll go to my house after school then?"
Betty and Veronica took their lunch and sat down with their friends. But they didn't know that they had been overheard by a most unlikely eavesdropper. Jughead Jones, the only person in Riverdale High who went for seconds at the cafeteria had caught the last part of the two girls' conversation. Not that he cared; Jughead's interest in females was non-existent, but he remembered it.
After school, Jughead waited for his best friend Archie Andrews. He and his rival Reggie Mantle were being held behind for a few minutes while the principal Mr. Whetherbee bitched them out for some silly prank they had pulled. Jughead had arranged with Archie earlier to go hiking. After a bit of time passed the red-haired boy appeared, with Reggie right behind.
"So Arch, you ready to go?" Jughead asked.
"Oh gosh, Jug, I forgot. I made other plans,"
This was a bit of a fib. Archie had overheard Reggie say that he was going to go see Veronica. There was no way that Archie was going to let him get a clear shot at her, so he figured he'd better get over to the Lodge Mansion first. But he could tell Jug was pissed off.
"Archie! You promised! How could you forget?"
"Um, I just did, Jug. I'm sorry. Do you want to go, tomorrow?"
"No, I want to go today! And I'm going with or without you!"
"Hey, Needle-nose," Reggie cut in, "If you want someone to go with you, I'm sure Big Ethel is free."
"Girls, yuck!" Jughead said as he turned to go. He could guess what "plans" Archie had made and the fact that he put his lust for Veronica ahead of their friendship made him very angry.
"If you're planning to go see Veronica, don't waste your time," he shouted over his shoulder, "She and Betty are sunbathing topless by her pool, and I'm sure she won't have the time of day for you!"
"That's not where I'm going, Jug," Archie lied, as much for Reggie's benefit as Jughead's.
Jughead didn't care and walked away. Reggie had a sly look on his face.
"See you tomorrow, dipstick!" he said as he trotted off.
Both Archie and Reggie knew each other well enough to know that the other was heading for the Lodge Mansion. Now it was a foot race to see who would get there first. Archie knew a shortcut and made a beeline for it. When he got there, he was out of breath, but saw no sign of Reggie. He went around to the back and set about climbing the fence. This wasn't hard; there was no real crime problem in Riverdale and no-one had much security.
Once inside the grounds, he got behind a hedge and crept towards the pool. He heard the girls' voices and he peeked out from behind the bushes. Betty and Veronica were both laying face down on deck chairs. He looked closely and saw that Jughead had been right; both of them had their bikini tops next to them on the ground. Of course, he couldn't see anything; they were laying the wrong way, but still he moved closer. Just ahead the hedge turned, and when Archie went around it, he bumped into something. Turning to see what was in his way, he saw the scowling face of Reggie.
"What are you doing here?" the other boy hissed.
"The same thing as you, you jerk," Archie whispered back, "You think I'd let you get a glimpse of Veronica's tits alone?"
"Well, this is my spot. Go somewhere else."
"I will not. This is the best view."
"Well, don't get in my way," Reggie said as he turned back to the small hole he had made in the bushes.
Both boys resumed spying, but it was a bit dull. They couldn't see anything, and Betty and Veronica's conversation was just ordinary girl talk. Then Veronica announced that she'd had enough sun on her back and wanted some on her front. Both Archie and Reggie tensed up as she rolled over, revealing her voluptuous tits. Archie had fantasized about those boobs for years, but had never before seen them. What a fantastic set! Then they were treated to another thrill as Betty also turned over. Her tits were even bigger than Veronica's, and Archie thought he could see that her nipples were hard. How much fun it would be to squirt a hot load of cum on those knockers!
"Oh, sugar, sugar!" Archie whispered as his _c_o_c_k_ sprung to life.
Reggie had leaned over and his shoulder was pushing up against Archie. His view of Betty wasn't quite as good and he wanted the full view, too. Archie got annoyed and shoved him away. That, as it happened, was a mistake. There a large potted palm next to Reggie, and as he fell over, the palm went with him. It landed with a THUMP! and Archie froze in fear. The girls had to hear that.
Looking back at them, he saw them reaching frantically for their tops. It was time to leave, but Reggie had other plans. He lashed out with his legs from where he lay on the ground and caught Archie around the ankles. As he tried to get up and run, he was tripped, and fell forward through the hedge. Archie was dazed, but he could hear Betty and Veronica screaming their heads off. He was aware that Reggie was trying to get up and escape, but he was too mad to let that happen. He tackled the other boy and brought him back down. Archie heard footsteps and then a strong hand caught him on the shoulder.
"I have them, sir," he heard a voice say. He looked up and saw he had been caught by Smithers, the Lodges' portly butler. The man was holding Reggie with the other hand. His heart sank and he saw Mr. Lodge striding toward them, cigar in mouth.
"Well, what have we here, Smithers?" Mr. Lodge asked.
"I do believe that these two miscreants were spying on Mistress Veronica and Miss Cooper!" Smithers suggested. By now the two girls were decent and they came over. It was clear that they were both furious.
"Archie Andrews!" Veronica screeched, "Reggie Mantle! You disgusting perverts!"
She came up to Archie and reached back and slapped him full across the face. Archie nearly fell over in shock. He'd been slapped by girls before, but never that hard. His cheek was stinging like fire. Reggie got the same treatment from the furious brunette and then Betty came up and slapped them both again.
"I thought better of you, Archie," Betty fumed. Obviously, she didn't think better of Reggie, because she didn't say anything to him, but Archie felt dreadfully ashamed. A girl like Veronica wouldn't mind being spied on all that much, but for someone as modest as Betty, it was a major betrayal.
"Well, what shall we do with you two?" Mr. Lodge asked. Archie knew the man well enough to tell that he was just as pissed off as the two girls, but he would never let his temper show in the same way. Still, he was the dangerous one. Mr. Lodge did not like being crossed, and Archie knew he would make him and Reggie suffer.
"Well, you could have them arrested, sir," Smithers suggested. "They did trespass on your property. Of perhaps you should call their parents."
"I've got a better idea, Smithers," Mr. Lodge said as he turned and looked straight at the two boys, "You two know how much trouble I can make for you if I want?"
Both boys nodded. This was a powerful man.
:"Well, then, I suggest you go along with what I have planned for you. If you don't, I'm going to make your lives hell."
Archie and Reggie gulped. Whatever Mr. Lodge had in mind was not going to be fun. Archie guessed he was going to make them do some really nasty job.
"Since you two acted like naughty little schoolboys, I think you should be treated as such. You should both be spanked. What do you think Smithers?"
The butler nodded in grim agreement, but Archie felt his mouth drop open. He did not just hear that.
"What about you, girls? You think they should both get a spanking?"
Betty nodded, her angry eyes reinforcing her agreement, but Veronica typically suggested a further humiliation.
"I think they should have their pants pulled down, Daddy," she proposed. "Since they like looking at other people with their clothes off, I don't see why they should get to keep theirs on."
"Good idea, Ronnie," Mr. Lodge said as he turned around to face the two guilty youths again. "So, what's it to be boys?"
"Do we have a choice?" Reggie gulped.
"No! None at all. Smithers, fetch me two paddles and you two come over by the diving board."
With heads down, the peeping toms trudged over to the diving board. Smithers had gone into one of the storage sheds in the back yard and had emerged with two large wooden canoe paddles. Betty and Veronica were standing there, still glaring at the two boys and Mr. Lodge was chewing the end of his cigar, eyeing them with a slight touch of sadistic delight. More than once, he'd wanted to get his hands on these two. He was quite aware that both of them had made it their goal in life to get into his daughter's panties and this was not something he was very happy about. Smithers handed him one paddle and kept the other.
"All right, drop 'em," he said.
Slowly the two teenagers undid their jeans and pushed them down to their knees. Then they stood there, staring at Mr. Lodge.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" he asked. "Drop the underpants, too!"
Blushing furiously, Archie hooked his fingers inside the waistband of his briefs and pulled them down. Many times he'd wanted to show his _c_o_c_k_ off to Betty or Veronica, but he never imagined it would be in circumstances like this. It hung down from his carrot-colored bush, draped over his freckled balls. He glanced over at Reggie and saw that the other boy had done the same. At least Veronica would see that his _d_i_c_k_ was both longer and fatter than Reggie's was. She seemed like the type that would demand a big _c_o_c_k_.
"All right, you two. On your knees and bend over the diving board."
At Mr. Lodge's command, Archie and Reggie awkwardly kneeled down and positioned themselves over the board. Their pants protected their knees from the concrete but their naked _c_o_c_k_s had no buffer from the rough fiberglass and they felt horribly uncomfortable.
"Who shall spank who, sir?" Smithers was asking.
"I get Archie," Mr. Lodge answered. He was not about to pass up the chance to beat this smart-assed red-head's freckled ass. "You take Reggie."
"And how many shall we give them?"
"Just keep beating his ass until I stop, Smithers."
"Very good, Sir."
Knowing what was about to come, Archie gripped the diving board hard. All the same, he was not ready for the bruising blow of the paddle, WHAP!
He bit down and clenched his eyes shut, that felt worse than getting slammed by Big Moose! WHAP! WHAP!
Archie could hear the loud smacks of Smithers' paddle hitting Reggie's naked ass, but it was sometimes hard to separate them from the blows Mr. Lodge was raining down on his own rear, so synchronized were the two men. But there was no mistaking the pain; each time the hard wood connected, it brought a new explosion of agony. He could hear Reggie making high pitched grunts and muted yelps next to him. Archie wished the other boy would just burst into tears so that he could too, but as long as his rival held out, he would have to, too.
Mr. Lodge was taking great delight in watching these two young asses turn red. He was sure that neither of these two would forget this anytime soon. Their teenaged butts were wiggling around, trying in vain to escape the hard blows. Smithers was looking a bit winded, so he decided that they had better stop, but not before he put three more blows right down the center of Archie's clenched cheeks. Reggie, in fact, got an extra one, because Smithers did not realize right away that his boss had stopped.
Archie reached behind himself and rubbed his burning ass. This was the most embarrassing experience of his young life and he could only look at the ground. He wished that he could pull his pants up from where he was, but he was kneeling on them. There was no getting around it; he would have to expose himself again. As quickly as he was able, he stood up and pulled his pants up. Unfortunately, he was in such a hurry, he didn't even bother getting his briefs into place and he caught the skin of his _c_o_c_k_ in his zipper. Gasping in pain, he unzipped again and fixed himself. Reggie hadn't noticed this, being too busy trying to cover up his own less than impressive equipment, but the girls sure did. Both of them had their hands over their mouths and were giggling.
"Well, go on, get out of here!" Mr. Lodge said as he blew out cigar smoke. He 'd considered keeping them for the afternoon and making them do yard work, but they'd been punished enough and they would probably do lousy work, anyway. Not needing to be told twice, the two boys trotted off as quickly as the pain in their backsides would permit. Once they were over the wall, Reggie turned and punched Archie in the arm.
"You jerk, look what you caused!"
"Me? You were the one that started pushing me!"
"Well, it was my spot first, Carrot-top! Who asked you to come barging in?"
"Oh, just shut up, Reggie!" Archie said as he punched the other boy back. It was both of their faults and they both knew it. As they walked away from the Lodge Mansion, they maintained a frosty silence which they did not break for a few minutes.
"You think the girls will tell?" Reggie asked.
"Betty might not, but you can bet that Veronica will. She's probably already on the phone spreading the news."
"I think I'll skip school tomorrow."
"Go right ahead, After the way the 'Bee chewed us out today, you'll just get into more trouble."
"You're a big help, dumbhead. I'm going to go and be depressed by myself."
Reggie turned at the next corner and went his own way. Archie made his way to Pop Tate's and ordered a soda. He wasn't going to be able to show his face in here for a week or two, so he may as while enjoy it while he could. As he sat down on his sore ass, he wished with all his might that he had gone hiking with Jug. Next time, he'd keep his promises.
