The Newlyweds Part 4 The Birthday Gift             by Madman       It was Julie's twenty fifth birthday and I wanted to make it special.  I was able to leave work early at abour 3:00 and rushed home.  My plans were to give Julie a diamond pendant necklace and take her out to a fine restaurant.  As harshly as she had dealt with me recently, I still loved her and wanted her to know how much I appreciated her.   When I got home, Julie was still in her two piece workout outfit with sweat socks and tennis shoes from her job at the health club.  She was watching television and curling dumbelles.  She was a workout fanatic and her strong, well developed 5'10" 160 pound body reflected that fact.  I handed her the jewelry box and told her that this symbolized my love and devotion for her on her special day.  Without a word, Julie opened the box and removed the necklace.   "This is only about half a carat, I should think you loved me more than that," she said barely glancing in my direction.   "Honey, that's a high quality diamond and it's all I could afford until I get that promotion at work."   Julie responded "If you're going to do something, do it right.  I'll get dressed and we'll exchange it for a decent sized diamond."   I was a bit put off by her response.  "It's a nice diamond and it's all we could afford.  You almost maxed out the credit cards with those clothes you bought at the boutique."  I knelt down in front of her and started to put the necklace around her neck.  "I'm sure this will look beautiful on you" I added.   "That's not the point" Julie said.  "Anything would look beautiful on me, but you need to learn to show proper respect.  This trinket isn't worthy of a dog."  She slapped my hand and the necklace flew across the room.  Then she put me in a headlock and said "I'll teach you a lesson in respect right now."  Julie moved off the sofa to the floor while keeping me trapped in her headlock.  She had me on my back and was lying across my chest forcing me to bear all her weight as she cranked down on her hold.  My face was jammed against her firm breast, but the tremendous pressure on my head from her powerful arms prevented me from enjoying it.   "Not only do you insult me with your cheap gift, but you interrupted my workout," she told me.  "Since I can't get much exercise wrestling with you, I'm going to finish my workout before dealing with you."  Julie released her headlock but sat on my chest, pinning my arms down with her awesome legs.  Then she reached for her dumbelles and ran through a sequence of upper body exercises.  Counting the two twenty five pound dumbelles, I was pinned down by over two hundred pounds of weight.  Julie methodically went through sets of curls, front raises, side raises and tricep kickbacks while I was helplessly pinned beneath her.  I watched the finger muscles in her shoulders, her big biceps and her striated forearm muscles dance with each movement.   Finally, she rolled the dumbelles away from us and said "Now I'm ready to teach you some respect."  I was already fatigued from the effort of breathing with all that weight on my chest for at least fifteen minutes.  Pulling my head up by my hair, she rolled to her side, capturing me in a headscissors.  Those shapely muscular legs that were holding me down were now crushing my head.  Calmly she said, "The jewelry store is open for two more hours.  That will give us plenty of time to get a real necklace after I'm done with you here."  Julie added more pressure to her scissors and I could only futiley kick my legs in a hopless attempt to break free.  The intense pressure was unbearable and I was in major distress.  Ignoring my condition, Julie commented "This will give me a little leg exercise.  I can't get that with the dumbelles, so I'll get it with you."   After a few minutes, Julie released me from her punishing scissors.  "I need to work my legs another way" she declared.  I got a brief glimpse of her lower leg as she removed it from my head.  Her calf muscle formed a menacing ball of power as it jutted out from above her sweat sock.  Lying directly on top of me, she laced those long legs around mine in a double grapevine.  Her hands firmly held my wrists down so that I couldn't move at all.  My legs were spread widely as she powered her grapevine and I was in agony again.  My groin was stretched much further than it should be and I felt searing pain in my knees and ankles.  Julie ignored my groans and pleas for mercy and continued to increase the pressure.   After what seemed like forever, it is difficult to judge time when in so much pain, she let my legs go and sat next to me.  "Now that I've finished my workout, I can concentrate on teaching you some respect" she told me.  She moved behind my head and pulled me up to a seated position.  Then she wrapped her arms around me with another headlock, this time from behind.  She jammed her knee between my shoulders and pulled back with her headlock, forcing her knee more deeply and painfully into my back.  I also felt pain in my neck, which was being stretched back.  Julie leaned back and pulled hard with her headlock to put even more stress on my neck and upper back.  Her leverage, combined with her superior strength, was devastating.  I didn't see how it could get worse, but of course she did.   Maintaining her headlock, Julie removed her knee from my back and pulled me down on top of her.  Then she scissored my midsection with her socked legs and bore down hard with both holds.  By pulling back with her headlock, she stretched my body and made it even more vulnerable to the crushing power of her well developed legs.  "Now, I bet you wish that you had got me a suitable gift" she said as she tightened those legs even more.  I couldn't breathe and was on the verge of passing out when Julie released her holds and pushed me off her.  Now, I was lying face down on the carpet too exhausted to move.   Julie straddled my back and commented "Sometimes the most basic holds can be very effective."  She twisted my left arm behind my back in a hammerlock and inquired "What do you think?"  I groaned as Julie forced my trapped arm further up my back and repeated more adamantly "What do you think!?"   "Yes, Julie...very effective," I gasped through the pain.   "Good" was all she said as she started bouncing up and down on my back to add another torture to her hammerlock.  When I tried to reach back to pull her off with my right arm, she hammerlocked it as well.  Once agian, Julie was punishing multiple body parts at one time as both my arms and my back were hurting.  I tried to roll to reduce the pressure on my arms, but she had me firmly held in place with her straddling legs tight to my body.    "Please Julie" I begged.  "Let me go and we'll exchange the necklace."   "Of course we will, but not until I'm convinced that you've learned your lesson."  Julie leaned forward to apply more force to her hammerlocks.   Apparently Julie was getting bored with hammerlocking me, because she let my arms go and quickly put me in a figure four headscissors.  Those mid-calf socks made her calves look even bigger and more ominous and her right calf was lodged right under my chin.  The pressure was different from her first scissors, as that one squeezed the sides of my head and this one compressed it from top to bottom.  I feared that I would crack a tooth, so intense was the pressure on my jaw pushing my teeth together.  Not that she need to, but Julie pulled back on her left ankle with her hand to make it easier for her to apply pressure.  With very little effort on her part,  Julie again had me painfully and helplessly trapped with those strong legs.  To increase my punishment, she rocked from side to side, jerking my neck with each movement.   "I'm sorry you didn't like the necklace Julie.  I've learned my lesson, let's go exchange it," I said under duress in an attempt to end the torture.   "Just ten more jerks and we'll go" she answered.  She counted with each punishing rocking motion until she got to nine.  Then she stopped rocking and really tightened up her legs.  The pressure was far greater than before and I thought that she would shatter my jaw.  Her hard muscular calf engulfed my neck and made breathing impossible.  Then Julie rolled competely over ending up on her back agian, cruelly twisting my neck, as she calmly said "ten."   She unlocked those incredible legs from my head and stood up.  I laid on the carpet too exhausted and sore to move.  "Hurry up" she said as she nudged me with her foot.  "I'll be ready to go in  five  minutes.  A two carot diamond should be sufficient, so you had better get that promotion to pay for it.  Otherwise, you can continue to pay like you just did."
