This is a, what if, situation, what if Connor had stayed with Angel. In this fic Connor is a much loved, if not slightly spoiled child, each chapter will be a different year of his life, starting when he's 5 and ending when he's 17.

………………………………….

Chapter One: 5 Years Old.

Five-year-old Connor Angel had a good life, he had a Daddy who loved him, he had the coolest bedroom and the best toys but being given everything gave him one very spoilt attitude.

Every since starting Kindergarten two weeks ago, Connor's behaviour seemed to be getting worse, Angel who had been oblivious to his only son's spoilt ways had been in for an awakening when the letters and calls from the school had started coming.

The school had many complaints about Connor not sharing with the other children, Connor not listening to the teachers, rude comments and swearing in the classroom when the teacher Mrs Applegate tried to implement discipline with the boy in her classroom.

One night after yet another call from the school about the little boy's behaviour, Angel decided to have a sit down with his son and try to figure out what was going on in the little boys head.

"Connor, come talk to Daddy please" Angel said, Connor use to his Daddy wanted to talk came over and let his Father pull him into a tight embrace.

"Yes Daddy?" Connor asked, tilting his head to the side in an almost Spike like manner, seeing it made Angel mentally sigh Connor was spending too much time with the 'Bleached Wonder' in his opinion.

"Connor can you tell Daddy why you keep doing naughty things at school?" Angel asked the little boy who was now sitting in his lap staring at him. Connor frowned, his Daddy never usually asked him things like that, he was Daddy's little guy and he never got into trouble but the voice his Daddy was using now made it sound like he was in trouble and he didn't like it, not one bit.

"I'm not naughty" he huffed giving his Father a slight glare, Angel although he found the glare to be very cute he gave his son a firm look. "Don't talk to me like that Connor" he said firmly then added, "I never said you were naughty, I asked why you have been doing naughty things at school".

Connor still did not look impressed but answered Angel's question anyway, "because school is stupid and boring, the teacher is mean and tells me I can't do things and makes me share the toys with other kids when I don't wanna".

Angel couldn't believe how selfish and spoilt his son sounded, he knew that he gave his son everything he could, and maybe that was a mistake, Connor was after all a child and children needed rules and boundaries and consequences for crossing them.

But Connor had none of those things, he had Angel wrapped around his little figure, willing to give in to his tantrums, crocodile tears, sad eyes and pouts.

Part of his reason was that Connor was most likely the only child he'd ever have and another part was that he felt guilty, guilty that he couldn't go outside and play with him, guilty that he couldn't drop him off to school or take him to the doctor or dentist during the day and guilty that he didn't have a Mommy like the other kids in his class.

"Connor, just because you don't like school, doesn't mean you can behave this way, you need to be a good boy and do as your teacher tells you, you need to play nicely with the other children and share the toys, they aren't your toys they're everyone's to play with, okay?" Angel asked giving his son a firm look.

"But Daddy, I don't wanna" Connor whined grumpily, Angel gave the little boy a look and said "You will behave Connor or Daddy will have to get very angry, you don't want to see Daddy get angry, so be good, you've been warned".

……………………………………………….

Two weeks later, Angel received a call from Connor's school, someone needed to come and pick the boy up because he had gotten into a fight with another boy in the class and given the boy a black eye and bloody nose.

Angel couldn't believe that his five-year-old could get into so much trouble; Cordelia had offered to go to the school and pick the boy up as she did most days anyway. And would be back any moment.

Sitting in his office, Angel wondered what he was going to do about Connor, he new that there needed to be some consequences but he didn't think time-out was going to cut it, ever since the conversation he and his son had had that night, Connor had received many time-outs for various misdeeds, but this, this was a big deal Connor was stronger than your average human and therefore him getting into fights with his classmates was dangerous and some serious consequences needed to be put in place.

Angel knew what he had to do and really hated the thought of laying a hand on his son. Oh he had no intention of letting it slip into the abuse he had suffered at the hands of his Father growing up, but he still couldn't shake the feeling that Connor would end up hating him like he had his own Father.

When he heard Cordy and his son approaching, he steeled himself for what he knew he had to do. Cordy gave Angel a slight smile as she ushered the little boy into the room.

Angel nodded to her in thanks and then turned his attention to his son "Connor I want you to go up to the Penthouse and wait in your room for me" he said firmly, Connor opened his mouth as if to argue but Angel cut him off "Now Connor".

Having never seen his Dad this angry Connor quickly got into the private elevator and made his way up to the penthouse he and his Father lived in and waited in his bedroom for his angry Father to come.

Connor didn't have to wait long, no more than ten minutes after being sent to his room, he was joined by his Dad, "Connor, I know you remember the talk we had about being good at school and I know you know that fighting is not allowed, so why did you do it?" Angel asked his son.

Connor didn't look at his Father, he knew he was in trouble and is scared him a bit up until a couple of weeks ago he had never been punished for anything, but then his Dad had started giving him boring time-outs.

"Daddy, am I going to have to go to time-out?" Connor asked, finally looking at his Dad. "No Connor, what you did was very naughty and I don't think a time-out is going to cut it".

"Then what Daddy?" Connor asked curiously, his Daddy had seemed really mad and he was sure he wasn't going to let it go "Do you know what a spanking is Connor?" Angel asked looking at the little boy. Connor shook his head no; Angel then said, "Well you're going to find out".

Angel gently pulled his son face down over his lap; "Daddy?" the boy questioned nervously, Angel didn't say anything but instead landed a sharp swat on the little boys up turned bottom.

SMACK, SMACK, SMACK "You don't get into fights at school Connor," He scolded as he swatted his son's rear. Connor was crying as the swats fell, his backside hurt and he wanted his Daddy to stop, "Sorry Daddy" he cried out "Owwie, Please Daddy no more, I'll be good".

Angel felt his heart break at his son's cries but he knew that this would help the boy in the long run, help him to grow up and not become a bully or a thug that hurts people to get what he wants, the spanking what hurt short term, but long term it would help Connor to grow up to be a good person.

Angel landed a few more whacks to his the little bottom over his lap the stoped, pulling the little boy into a tight hug, he kissed the boy on the head and said "I love you Connor, more than anything in this world, and I want you to grow up to be the best person you can be, and I'll do anything I can to help you."

The little boy didn't reply but did let his Daddy hold him until he fell asleep, knowing that his Daddy still loved him.

A/N: okay so let me know what you think.
