Chapter 35
Thank you very much for the reviews they are appreciated
When we got down to the lab, we checked in with Abby and went into her office. "Hey guys whatcha up to?"
Carlos said, "Nothin' much Kate, board games, cards, different stuff."
"Can Brent and I join you?"
"Sure"
"Great what are we going to play?"
"Hmm we were thinking 'Sorry'."
"Sounds fun CK." We were all having a lot of fun, and we have been playing for an hour and were on our second game. I had two of my guys home, CK had three, both Bella and Lori had two, which I thought was weird them being twins and all, and Jake and Brent had one. All of us had all of our pieces around the board. It was my turn next and I picked up a card and it was a 'sorry card'. "Sorry" and I decided to bump Brent back to the start position.
"HEY! Kate that's not fair!"
Then CK backed me up and said, "Hey kiddo, that move was 100% fair."
"I don't care if it's fair."
"Brent what'd you want me to do let you win?"
"Something like that."
"Well I'm sorry but that's not the rules of the game."
"Well shit."
"Brent stop before we get into trouble."
"Fuck you, you're not the boss of me," then he smashed the game to the floor.
"Brent I'm warning you."
"What are you going to do about it?"
"I just don't want to get in trouble," and I pushed him to the ground and he landed hard on his butt. A second later he was to his feet and he lunged at my waist. I'm not sure who said it but someone yelled, "ABBY GET IN HERE!" When she entered the room she yelled, "ENOUGH!" and she walked over to us and picked us up by the ears "OWOWOW." Spartan followed us as we were dragged into the elevator. The door dinged as we arrived at the bullpen. Abby, who still had a hold of our ears, marched us over to our dad's desk.
"What did you do Kate?" Abby finally let go of our ears.
"Dad why do you always expect if anything goes wrong it's me?" he cocked an eyebrow and Abby said, "Well I heard a few bad words exchanged." My dad looked at me, "Dad I swear it wasn't me." Then Abby continued, "And when Carlos called me into the room these two were rolling on the floor fighting."
"Thanks Abs you can go and I'll handle this." After she left my dad said, "You two with me. Tony hold the fort and watch Spartan."
"On it boss," and he tied Spartan's leash to his desk so he wouldn't follow me.
We followed our dad to one of the interrogation rooms and we were led inside. "Sit" in order for us not to further ourselves in trouble we both sat, and he sat across from us. "You two are in a lot of trouble."
"Why is that dad?" Brent asked sarcastically.
"You know damn well why, you swore, and you two were fighting after I told you not to."
"Sorry sir," I said
"Do you have anything to say Brent?"
"Ya sorry"
"Alright, Brent wait outside the door, and my advice to you is to be there when I come get you." He left the room and shut the door. "Caitlyn Leigh Gibbs I am very disappointed in you."
"I'm sorry dad, I tried to stop him."
"And that resulted in fighting?"
"Yes, at the time it seemed like the only way."
"Well it wasn't, if he is doing something naught you tell me or mom, or whoever your with, and we'll handle it, understand?"
"Yes sir I understand."
"Now come here," I stood up and removed my pants. I knew I would lose them so I didn't want to be asked to remove them. I walked over to him and laid myself over his lap and he pulled my underwear down and then SMACK he let his hand fall. SMACK "You do not" SMACK SMACK "Start fights with" SMACK SMACK "Your brother he" SMACK SMACK "Is a part of this family now." SMACK SMACK "I-I-am sor-rry da-addy" he stopped spanking me and rubbed circles in my back then he stood me up and I straightened my pants. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I kissed his cheek "Sorry dad."
"Alright kiddo I want you sitting, yes sitting outside the door while I deal with your brother."
"Ok sir," when we opened the door Tony was standing across from the door, "Tony what are you doing here?" my dad asked.
"Well I caught Brent wandering around."
"You did, did you? Well I'll just add that to the list of consequences." I slid down the wall slowly and when my butt finally hit the ground I winced.
"Hey boss want me to watch Caitlyn?"
"No you go back to work she knows what will happen if she moves."
"Ok boss."
BRENT POV
My dad brought me into the room, and shut the door and told me to sit which I did. He sat across from me and then said, "Brent Pacci Gibbs you need to learn to listen to me."
"Ok I will do it."
"That means when I say don't swear, you don't swear, when I say come you come, and when I say stay you stay. And if you don't then you will just end up here again. Now come here."
"I think I'll pass," he didn't even hesitate he grabbed my arm and pulled me over his lap and landed ten smacks to my backside. He sat me back down, my eyes were wet with tears.
"I'm not joking Brent."
"I'm sorry dad, sometimes I can't control the words that come out of my mouth."
"I know kiddo, that's why I'm here to help. Let's get this over with. "
"But dad you already spanked me."
"For talking back to me not for swearing, fighting, and running when I told you to stay."
"Ok sir," he stood me up and tugged my pants down and draped me over his lap and tugged my underwear down. SMACK "You will not" SMACK SMACK "Start fights" SMACK SMACK "With you sister" SMACK SMACK I started to wiggle and I was crying but it seemed like he didn't even acknowledge me "No swearing" SMACK SMACK "No running" SMACK SMACK "And you will" SMACK "Listen to me" SMACK SMACK SMACK "Da-addy sto-op pla-ease." He stopped spanking me and rubbed circles on my back and he pulled my underwear and pants up and wrapped me in a hug and set me on his lap and called Kate in.
KATE POV
I walked in and shut the door and I walked over and climbed up on to his unoccupied leg. We both rested our heads on his shoulders. He rocked us back and forth while he sang, "Belleau Wood" by Garth Brooks, to us.
Oh, the snowflakes fell in silence
Over Belleau Wood that night
For a Christmas truce had been declared
By both sides of the fight
As we lay there in our trenches
The silence broke in two
By a German soldier singing
A song that we all knew
Though I did not know the language
The song was "Silent Night"
Then I heard my buddy whisper,
"All is calm and all is bright"
Then the fear and doubt surrounded me
'Cause I'd die if I was wrong
But I stood up in my trench
And I began to sing along
Then across the frozen battlefield
Another's voice joined in
Until one by one each man became
A singer of the hymn
Then I thought that I was dreaming
For right there in my sight
Stood the German soldier
'Neath the falling flakes of white
And he raised his hand and smiled at me
As if he seemed to say
Here's hoping we both live
To see us find a better way
Then the devil's clock struck midnight
And the skies lit up again
And the battlefield where heaven stood
Was blown to hell again
But for just one fleeting moment
The answer seemed so clear
Heaven's not beyond the clouds
It's just beyond the fear
No, heaven's not beyond the clouds
It's for us to find it here
