James Lucas Scott was the pride and joy of Haley's life. Her son. Now six years old. But right now she could not breathe she was so angry. But her anger paled in comparison to Nathan's and that scared the crap out of her. Last night Jamie left the house and ran into the middle of the street.

A woman had to swerve out of the way to avoid killing the young boy. She asked Jamie where he lived and why he ran out. And he answered that he was bored and was going out to play. She brought him to Haley bringing him to the house. And Nathan had manhandled the little boy, firmly grabbing him by the wrists, and leaving him in his room.

Nathan and Haley weren't able to sleep. And spent the remainder of the night contemplating how to punish their son.

"Is he too young to be grounded?"

"Yes." Nathan answered knowing the exact punishment needed.

"What if we took his Wii?" Haley asked running out of ideas.

"No Hales, we needs something to punish him. Something we have never done before."

"Something like a spanking." Haley answered making the obvious conclusion.

"Yeah." Nathan agreed.

"OK." Haley said, the two looked each other in the eye for a moment knowing it was the right thing before they were interrupted. Jamie ran down the stairs in his spiderman onesie and took a seat at the kitchen table. He saw the look on his parents faces and his smile faded into a frown.

"Jamie…" Nathan began walking towards him and took a seat at the kitchen table. Haley began to approach the table but she realized that this was something Nathan wanted to do alone. She exited the kitchen after giving Nathan a solemn look. "Am I in trouble Daddy?"

"Jamie do you understand what you did last night was incredibly dangerous?"

Jamie gave his father a look of complete blissful ignorance.

"You mean leaving in the middle of the night? Yeah. I'm sorry dad." Jamie said.

"It's OK. I forgive you." Nathan said and Jamie leapt from his chair with a wide grin.

He began to walk away but Nathan placed a firm hand on his tiny arm sitting him down.

"Just because I forgive you does not mean that you are not going to be punished." Nathan said firmly. "Please. I'm really really really sorry." Jamie said giving Nathan his best puppy-dog face.

"That is good. I am happy you understand that what you did is wrong but Mama and I have decided that I am going to spank you." Nathan said taking a deep breath.

Jamie stared at him in horror. "Daddy no! Please! NO!" He attempted to escape his father's iron grip but failed. "NO! NO! NO!" He began to scream. "Mama!" He cried out tears streaming down his cheeks as he cried out in agony.

"Jamie, I'm sorry. But this is going to happen whether you like it or not." He grabbed the six year old by his hips and lifted the onesie straight from his son leaving him in nothing but his underwear. Nathan lifted him up on his lap ignoring his cries. Nathan swiftly pulled his underwear down so that Jamie's butt was bared.

Jamie began to struggle and cried out as Nathan's hand spanked his bare ass. He delivered five more firm swats as tears began to slide down Jamie's cheeks. "PLEASE STOP!"

Nathan stopped his hand mid air but realized he needed to continue. He delivered ten more hard swats to Jamie's bare ass. He glanced down and realized his ass was a crimson red and stopped. He pulled Jamie into a quick hug and Jamie embraced him. "It's OK. It's over." Nathan said softly
