Sorry I didn't update yesterday! I had a ton of school work _ growl, but, tomorrow is my favorite class! It's my 'Learning to Teach Students with Special Needs," it's amazing!
Chapter Thirty-Six
I sighed and answered the phone.
"Hi, Daddy, I miss you." I said sweetly, hoping to butter him up.
"Hello Isabella Marie, I miss you too," he said, "Now, you tell me why you decided to skipped therapy and go to a bar when you know you are underage."
I cleared my throat nervously, "Well, I-I didn't think you'd find out about therapy. And I really wanted to go to the bar with my friends. They were all going. And I thought it would be okay because I drink wine with Alice all the time."
He sighed, "Bella, drinking wine at a home is completely different than going to a bar when you're underage and having a bartender make strong drinks. And then drive home afterwards. Bella do you understand how big of a deal this is? I'm so upset with you; I was worried sick. When you didn't answer your phone I thought… I was scared Bella. I'm hundreds of miles away and if something happened to you…" He was struggling to speak, something I haven't heard since I had to have emergency surgery.
I felt horrible, tears starting now.
"I-I'm sorry." I said in a small voice.
He sighed again, "Bella, you made some very, very poor choices tonight. I'm so disappointed in you. Honey, you know that you have to go to therapy every week, just because I'm not there doesn't mean you can skip it. That wasn't fair to Emily who moved her other appointments to schedule you. She waited an hour and a half for you. I think you owe Emily a big apology." He said.
"Yeah, I guess so." I said.
"And, I think, when I get home, you need a spanking." He said.
"I figured. Jasper said that if it was Alice who did that, he'd spank her." I said in a small voice.
"Mmm hmm, so do you think it's fair that you receive a spanking?" He asked.
I took a deep breath, "It's more than fair. I know I deserve it. I shouldn't have been so bad."
"You made bad choices. I understand you want to go out with your friends. You can go out with them anytime you want. But not to a bar when you're underage. And you definitely can't skip therapy, that's not okay. And not answering your phone? Why didn't you answer your phone Bella?" He asked.
"I didn't hear it ringing. My friend told me she heard it ringing. That was when Alice was calling." I told him.
"Okay. Have you showered?" He asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"Alright. I want you in bed, right now." He said.
"I'm in bed. C-can we read one story?" I asked.
"No Bella. You're going to bed early with no story. And I will be home tomorrow morning. I love you Bella." He said.
"I love you too daddy." I said before we hung up.
I laid in bed for a while that night, just staring at the ceiling. I just couldn't find the will to go to sleep. I felt horribly guilty; so guilty that my stomach churned.
Usually, when I did something bad, I'd get an immediate spanking, or there would be, maybe an hour until the spanking. Never a whole night. Sure, when I did something wrong I felt guilty, but the spanking made that guilt go away.
But, now I had to lay with it. And I couldn't shake the guilt.
What I did tonight was very wrong. I knew better, I just thought I could get away with it. Edward wasn't here, so I believed I could get away with it. But maybe, secretly, I wanted to get caught. I didn't call Emily to cancel, and I had reminded myself to do it all day.
I groaned and rolled over; I just wished that my daddy was here so we could get the spanking over with and cuddle. He always made me feel better. Even with spankings.
The Next Morning
I woke up feeling very excited and nervous. Edward was coming back today. I sat in the bed for a few moments, figuring out my feelings. I was excited to see him but also nervous. I missed him terribly and all I wanted to do was wrap my arms around him. And I also wanted him to spank me, so I could get over the guilt.
I threw the blankets off of me and went into the kitchen, Alice and Jasper would be up already, they were early risers like I was. When I walked into the kitchen, there was no two, but three people standing in the kitchen. And the third person had very familiar reddish bronze hair.
I squealed and jumped into Edward's arms.
"You're home!" I squeaked loudly, giving him a flurry of kisses on his face.
He laughed, "I am home. I missed you honey." He said, squeezing me tightly.
"I missed you too." I said, for some reason tears leaking out of my eyes.
He laughed again, "Why are you crying?" He asked, kissing my cheeks and forehead.
"Because I missed you and I'm so happy and you're here!" I said.
Alice and Jasper were laughing, leaning against the counter watching our exchange. After a few minutes, Edward set me down on my feet.
"How long have you been here?" I asked, wiping the stray tears from my cheeks.
"Just got here. I was about to wake you up," he reached into his bag, "And I was giving Alice and Jasper their thank-you gift. For putting up with my brat for the week." He joked.
I squawked and playfully smacked his arm. He leaned down and kissed my forehead, "Just kidding my love."
He handed Jasper an expensive bottle of wine, "Found that, thought it might be good." He also handed them a gift card to their favorite restaurant, which Alice snatched.
"Ohh, Jazz, date night!" she said in a sing-song voice.
I laughed, "You guys need a date night, let me get out of your hair." I said.
"Oh you've been an angel, no trouble at all," Jasper said, clapping Edward on the shoulder.
Edward smiled, "Good, I'm glad she was no trouble. Well, I'm sorry to leave so early, but we are going to breakfast and then spending the day together." He put an arm around me.
I smiled, but then became nervous again. He still needed to spank me, the guilt was still eating me. I just wanted to get it over with.
"Let's go get your stuff," he said.
We both walked into the guestroom. He closed the door gently behind him. Okay, this was it. I was going to get this spanking. Get it over with, the guilt would be all gone.
"I've missed you sooooo much," He said, wrapping his arms around me.
I wrapped my arms around him, "I missed you too. Every minute you were gone." I said.
He chuckled and kissed the top of my head, "We are going to have an incredible day. I got you the absolutely best gift ever! It's at the house though, we'll get it later. After breakfast."
"Even though I kind of already ruined the day?" I asked bashfully.
"Ruined the day? What are you talking about?" he asked.
I played with the end of my shirt, "Because of last night. I ruined the day because you have to spank me."
He frowned a bit, "Honey, you didn't ruin the day. We'll discuss the spanking later, okay? I'm not worried about it right now."
My frowned deepened, "B-but… I mean…" I struggled to find the right words.
"What's wrong honey?" He asked.
I sighed, "I feel really, really guilty. I've done something extremely bad. I need a spanking."
He made a face, "Bella, -" I cut him off by putting my fingers up to his lips.
"No, daddy, I won't be able to enjoy anything today if you forget to spank me." I said.
"Bella, I'm not going to spank you right here. I'm sorry that you're feeling guilty, but later today when we get home I'll spank you, okay?" He said with a smile.
I smiled a little, "I never thought I'd actually ask for a spanking."
He laughed and kissed my forehead, "I'm sorry you feel guilty, and I promise I'll spank you."
I laughed with him, "Okay."
"You've never asked for a spanking before, I'm curious as to why you're asking for this one instead of hoping I forget." He said.
I shrugged, "Every other spanking has been immediately followed after I did something bad. I've never really had time to feel guilty. But, last night, and right now, I feel so awful. I feel like I'm sick. I just want to get the spanking over with so I can stop feeling guilty."
"Ahh, okay, I see. The spankings relieve you of your guilt. Well don't you worry, you're getting your spanking. But not right now, definitely later." He said with a laugh.
