Chapter 11 – A Hot Seat
Carlisle:
After I sent Jessica up to her room, I went to talk to Esme. She was in the kitchen proudly holding a can of decaf coffee in her hands. She placed it down on the counter and patted it with her hand.
"I see you remedied that little situation, my dear. I guess my little chat with you made an impression!" I said to her giving her a look.
"Of course, darling, I always follow the doctor's orders," Esme said with a sly grin. "Now tell me about our little guest upstairs."
"I caught her drinking one of those energy shots right outside the coffee shop. I gave her an embarrassing spanking right on the spot," I informed her.
"Carlisle! I hope that doesn't come back to haunt you. You know how people feel about spankings these days and she isn't your child. Aren't you a little worried this could cause a problem for you?" She asked with a worried look.
"Well, if it does, so be it. They can find a new surgeon and we will move. I did what I thought I had to. I had threatened her that if I caught her using caffeine products again, I would punish her right on the spot no matter where it was or who would see it. Unfortunately for her, she pushed the limits and had to pay the price. I felt I had to follow through, no matter what the risks were," I explained.
"I understand you felt you had to go through with this, but in public? Carlisle, I just hope this doesn't come back to haunt you," Esme said again with a worried look.
"It was a quick spanking, but I made it sting. I turned her over my knee in front of the coffee shop and landed 10 stinging swats to her bare bottom. She yelped throughout and people did see it. However, when I admonished her afterwards about drinking caffeine products again, the few who were looking gave disapproving remarks that she used those products again. Also, when I made her throw them away, some clapped. I do have her parents' permission to punish her." I informed her.
"You bared her bottom in public? How embarrassing that must have been for her. I just hope you are correct and people will stick by you if there is an issue with this. It's not like it used to be, there was a time when this type of punishment was expected, but now, some people are really upset by it," Esme added.
"Well it works for me and I will continue to use it. Now I have to decide what to do with Little Miss Stanley and her sneakiness. I'm afraid she is going to be spending some quality time over my knee. She is going to learn she cannot pull a stunt like sneaking these energy shots right in front of me and I'm going to make sure she learns this lesson well," I informed my wife.
"Why don't you take a little time to cool off a bit before you deal with her. I'm sure she needs a little time to get herself together also. You both need to settle down before you address this. It will do you both good," she suggested.
"You're right my love, I will be in my study if you need me, then I will address our little guest. I'll let you know when I'm ready so you and the others can give us some privacy," I said to her.
In the Kitchen:
Esme was downstairs in the kitchen when Bella and Edward came over. Esme was filling Bella in on Jessica's little performance at the coffee shop.
"Oh no, I almost feel responsible. If I would have gone with her today, maybe I could have stopped her." Bella said sadly.
"It's not your fault, Bella," Edward said. "Jessica knew she shouldn't take those caffeine shots with her health scare and she chose to do it anyway. She deserves what Dad gives her. He did warn her and she knew what would happen. She also knows it was wrong."
"Yes but I still feel responsible, she is my friend," Bella said with remorse.
"Bella, honey, Edward is right. She is not your responsibility. She chose to do the wrong thing; it's not your fault. She got caught and now she has to suffer the consequences. She is no stranger to the rules in this house. She has no one to blame but herself," Esme said.
"Maybe I should go talk to her, you think I should," Bella asked Edward.
"I don't know; she probably wants to be alone. I wouldn't want to see anyone right now if Dad spanked me in public. I can't believe he actually did that," Edward said.
"That worries me too," Esme said.
"Don't worry, Charlie wouldn't let anything happen to Dad," Bella said.
"I hope so, dear," Esme worriedly said.
In the Study:
Carlisle:
I have been sitting here thinking of all that has transpired since I was called to the hospital to see Jessica. I have never been so disappointed in her. She knows better and knows the risk to her health. I cannot allow her to get by with sneaking these energy shots and doing further damage to her health. I will not stand by and watch her develop heart problems, high blood pressure and the like. As much as I hate it, I have to discipline her and not let this go. I followed through with my threat of catching her in the act. I know she is probably still sore from the spanking yesterday, but she is going to have to endure a worse one today. I can't let this disobedience and disregard for her health go by without consequences. I know what I have to do and I want to get it over with. I see no reason to put it off any further for her sake and mine. I will go down and let Esme know to get everyone out for a little while.
Walking into the kitchen, I saw Esme speaking with Bella and Edward. They both looked at me as I walked in. I could see the sad expressions on their faces.
"Dad, I'm sorry Jessica disobeyed you again. I should have gone to lunch with her," Bella said. I could tell she felt somewhat responsible.
"It's not your fault Bella. Jessica made the choice to ignore my warnings and now she has to pay the price. She knows better. Especially the scare she had Friday night," I said trying to ease her mind.
"Are you going to spank her again, Dad?" Bella asked.
"Yes, she needs to know this behavior will not be tolerated and her health is first and foremost a priority. Esme, why don't you and the others give us some privacy now so we can put this matter behind us," I said to her.
"Of course Carlisle. Are you sure you don't want me to stay behind?" Esme offered.
"No darling, we will probably both need you afterwards," I admitted. "I plan to make a lasting impression on Miss Stanley."
Esme gathered everyone and they were all out of the house in 10 minutes. I stood by the stairs looking up toward the guest room and dreaded the task ahead of me. I had to carry it out though. I slowly began ascending the stairs. Arriving at the guest room I knocked quietly.
"Come in," Jessica squeaked out. I opened the door and walked in. Jessica got up from the bed and stood nervously before me, her eyes darting from me to looking down at her feet. She could tell this was serious.
"Well, young lady, I believe we have a little matter to take care of, do we not?" I posed to her.
"I-I guess so," she answered hesitantly.
I put my hand out beckoning her, "Let's go, little lady." She slowly walked toward me and I put my hand on her shoulder guiding her out into the hallway toward my study. I could see her shoulders slump as we got to the study and walked in. I closed the door behind us. She stopped and just stood looking at the chairs in front of my desk.
"I don't think we have anything more to discuss. We talked about this on the drive home from town. Do you have anything you wish to say?" I asked her.
"No Dr. Cullen, just that I'm sorry," Jessica said casting her eyes to the floor again.
"I'm tired of hearing that from you, young lady! You know better than this. You know what those caffeine products did to your heart, blood pressure and your breathing. This stops now, no more of these products. If I have to spank you everyday until you go back to school to get this point across, I will. Are you going to listen to me now, my dear?"
"Y-yes, yes sir," she said beginning to whimper.
"Before I proceed, I am going to give you a quick exam. I want to check your heart rate and blood pressure and listen to your breathing. Come over to the couch and sit down."
After checking her out, she seemed fine with no ill effects from the caffeine products. It was now time to administer her punishment for her careless ways. I brought forward a small 2-foot coffee table out from the corner. Jessica watched me wondering what was happening. I then addressed her.
"Jessica, I'm afraid I am going to have to give you the spanking of your life for your careless disregard for your health and for the audacity you had to sneak these energy shots right under my presence. Stand up and remove your shoes, and jeans. Keep your socks and underpants on and come over here." I ordered her.
She looked at me not understanding what was happening. I could see the confusion written all over her face. All she could think was the words, 'spanking of your life'. Her eyes widened when I said that to her. After she complied, she came and stood in front of me.
I put my left foot up on the table and grabbed her by the arm. She gasped when she realized what was coming. She tried backing up, but I had her tightly in my hold.
"Oh no! Please don't spank me that way, Dr. Cullen. It's too embarrassing. It's almost worse than this afternoon in front of the coffee shop. Please! Just put me over your knee the usual way!" She begged.
"No young Lady! You deliberately disobeyed me and now you are going to pay the price. I'm going to drape you over my knee, pull your underpants down and give you a long, slow, hard spanking on your bare bottom. Maybe this will drive my point home."
"No-oh! Please don't do that! I promise I won't do it again," she pleaded.
"Come here, young lady! You are only going to make this worse," I warned her. She began struggling against my hold and in a desperate attempt to break away from me; she suddenly sat herself down on the floor and wiggled her arm free of my hold. When she sat on the floor, she began scooting backwards trying to gain some distance from me.
"Jessica Stanley! You get up right now and come here!" I ordered her.
"No, I don't want a spanking like that," she said beginning to cry.
She continued scooting back. I took my foot off the table and walked toward her, slowly closing the gap between us. What she didn't realize was, she was backing up into my desk. She would not be able to go any further. I let her continue scooting back as I walked toward her with my arms crossed in front of me. It wasn't long and she bumped into the front of my desk. A look of horror registered on her face as she realized she just cornered herself with me right in front of her. I just looked her in the eye and gave her a knowing smile. She looked up at me with her mouth hanging open in surprise.
"Didn't work out too well, did it?" I asked her.
"Um, no! Not really!" She admitted.
"Get up and get over here! NOW!" I said angrily.
She started rocking back and forth pleading again, "No! I don't want a spanking that way!"
"You have no say in the matter, now get over here or I will come and get you," I warned her again.
She just sat there, rocking back and forth, repeating over and over, "No, no, nooo, no…"
"Have it your way then," I said.
I walked over to her, grabbed her by her arms and stood her up facing me. She wouldn't look at me; she just kept her head down, refusing to look me in the eye. I then bent her over and put my left arm around her waist and lifted her up and alternated 10 sharp SMACKS to both sides of her bottom. She yelped with each one.
"Are you going to come when I call you from now on?" I asked landing another sharp SMACK.
"Y-yes, s-sorry," she whimpered out.
"You better not act like this again young lady, or you will get 2 spankings, understood," I asked again landing another SMACK.
"Y-yes s-sirrrr," she sobbed.
I then stood her back up and made her look at me. She put her head down again, but I put my hand under her chin and raised her face up to look at me.
"I have had about enough of your antics, young lady. Now you are going to get a good spanking like I promised you whether you like it or not. You brought this on yourself by not heeding my advice and risking your health. You know how I feel about that, and now I am going to show you," I chided her.
I lifted her up and draped her over my left knee. She gasped as she bent down over my leg. She began fighting and kicking her feet and begging me to let her up.
"No, please! I want up, please!" She cried.
"You're not getting up until I say you can get up. You're not going to fall; I have a good hold on you. Grab onto the table or my ankle and brace yourself. I will hold you down with my left hand," I informed her. She grabbed onto my ankle and the table and steadied herself. I then pulled her underpants down and placed my right hand against her bare bottom. "I'm not going to stop until I am satisfied that I have driven this point home. Do not try to get up; you will only make it worse for yourself. Ready?"
"Um…ah…n-nooo…please!" She uttered.
I ignored her and raised my hand high and brought it down sharply on her left cheek. She yelped when she felt it. I then raised my hand slowly and brought it smartly down on the right cheek. She yelped again throwing her head back. I continued bringing my hand down sharply alternating from one side to the other. She yelped and whined with each smack. I spanked her with a slow, deliberate rhythm, landing smack after smack, slowly building up the burning intensity of her spanking. She was also in a very embarrassing position. She was not a happy camper. I continued to apply slow, sharp spanks over and over. The spanking was not that severe, but the sting increased with each spank. It was finally to the point that she was now feeling it enough to let out a small cry with each swat.
I spanked her just like I told her, long, slow and hard. Her bottom was getting red and she went from yelping to small cries. I then tilted her a little forward making her sit spots and thighs rise up for their turn. She knew what was coming and began kicking her feet again and cried a little louder.
"Jessica, stop kicking your feet." I warned her.
I applied the same slow, sharp spanks to each side of her sit spots making her feel my displeasure. The spanks finally found their mark and she began to steadily cry now. I felt her finally give in and lay limply over my knee giving up the fight. I landed about 10 more smacks to her vulnerable sit spots and ended her spanking. Her bottom was a bright shade of red and looked thoroughly spanked. She was still sobbing as I lifted her up and brought my foot down. I pulled her underpants up. I picked her up in my arms and carried her to the couch. I sat and held her in my lap, being careful to keep her bottom off my leg. I held her while she sobbed and cried her tears out.
She sat there for a long time in my lap, just leaning against me, trying to bring herself under control. I just let her lay there. We didn't say anything and I just let her take her time getting herself under control. I had been handing her tissues and helped wipe her tears away at times. She finally settled down.
"Are you calmed down now, sweetheart?" I asked. "You can get up and put your jeans back on."
"Yes, I-I'm okay now," she said softly. She got up and put her jeans on and I motioned for her to come and stand in front of me.
"I don't want to have to do this again, Jessica. Please heed my warning and do as I say. I am only looking out for your own good. You are too young to ruin your health with something so unnecessary as caffeine stimulants. I don't want to see you in my ER again, or any ER for that matter. You do understand that, don't you?" I questioned her.
"Yes Dr. Cullen. I know I was wrong; I just wanted to get done with that term paper and enjoy time with my friends on this break. I will do better from now on," she said.
"If you would have done your work as you were supposed to and not gone to so many parties, you would not need stimulants to give you a boost of energy. I better not hear of you doing this again, young lady. Have I gotten through to you?" I asked making her face me and giving her a serious stare.
"Ah, y-yes sir, I hear you loud and clear and I feel it too," she said rubbing her bottom. "That hurt, and I hate getting a spanking in that position," she admitted.
"That's why I did it that way. No one likes that position. Hopefully that was also a good deterrent for you," I said sternly.
"It was, I never want to be spanked that way again," she said looking at me. "My bottom is killing me," she said rubbing it.
"Good, that will be a great reminder while you sit over there and finish your paper, my dear. Now! Get busy; I want it done by this evening. You are almost done, so you can finish it. You cannot leave this room until it is completed and I have approved it. The only exception is for dinner," I informed her.
"Aw, do I have to finish it today?" She whined.
"Jessica! Do you really want to ask that question of me?" I warned.
"Uh, no, um, you're right, I'll get right to it," she said.
She made it her business to get over to the desk. She pulled the chair out and sat down and jumped up, letting out a screech. "OOUCH! Ow! Ow! I guess ice is out of the question?"
"Mmmhmm!" I said to her.
"Oh well, it didn't hurt to ask. I think I'll stand here a bit," she said as she got to work.
