1 Days Later:

Devon's eyes started flickering open. He groans in pain he was having in his throat from not being able to feed again. He looks around when his vision was able to adjust better and when he looks around the room, he sees he is in Carlisle's study.

How the hell did I get here? Devon confusing says to himself. Devon tries to sit up but he felt too weak to get up anymore. Stefan and Carlisle hears Devon waking up and they head back upstairs to Carlisle's study. Devon picks his head up as he is trying to sit up and sees his brother, Stefan and his father coming into the room.

Devon sighs in annoyance at seeing Stefan since he remembers what happened. Stefan can tell his younger brother was not happy with what he had to do to him but if Devon didn't calm down he was going to do something he would regret.

"I told you to mind your own business Stefan but of course you never listen."

Devon tells Stefan with anger in his voice.

"Devon.."

Carlisle says while giving him a very stern look which makes Devon rolls his eyes at his father. Devon didn't care to listen to Stefan or Carlisle at this moment. He knew what they wanted to do and he wasn't going to get off the human blood. It made him feel stronger and not as weak as he use to feel.

Carlisle sees the attitude in his son when he rolled his eyes at him. Carlisle knows the human blood is making him act like this but to Carlisle his behavior shouldn't be excused. Carlisle takes a chair that was in front of his desk while Stefan sits on the other chair that was by the door. If Devon did try to run again he won't be able to get far with Carlisle and Stefan in the room.

"Devon, you know this is not acceptable behavior. Stefan was worried about you and quite frankly your mother and I have been worried also about you son."

"There is no need to worry. What I do is none of your concern."

Carlisle sighs. He knew this wasn't going to be easy with Devon. Devon was always the hard headed, stubborn one of the family. He had a temper that was never easy for his young son to control. Carlisle and Esme sees how hard he tries to control it but it always got the best of him.

Stefan speaks up at this moment to try to help his stubborn brother. That's one trait Stefan believes he got from Damon.

"Dev, you have to stop this. This is not you and you know it. The human blood has changed you. You can't keep doing this. We cannot allow you to stay on this self destruction path you are on."

Devon shakes his head and chuckles a little at what Stefan was saying to him. He is the one to talk, Devon says to himself in anger. The last thing he wanted was to sit here and hear any of them has to say.

It's his life so why does it even matter to them what he chooses to do with his life. He might be stuck at 17 but he was still an adult in some sense and whatever he decided to do with his life was his business.

Through gutted teeth and squeezing the cushion of the couch he says,

"I wish everyone can stay out of my life and stop trying to 'save me'. It's my life. Technically I'm an adult. What I want to do with my life is my business. I' am old enough to do whatever I want. So let me go and leave me alone."

Devon gets up and attempts to leave but Carlisle grabs his arm which angers Devon even more. He grabs Carlisle's arm and forces it off of him and pushes Carlisle into the wall in his office which makes Carlisle hit his head. Stefan tries to stop him also but Devon shoves him into the door and tries to run off but Carlisle was not having any of it.

He knew Devon was not in the right mind and he knew Devon won't want to do anything else he will regret. Carlisle is able to block Devon from going out the front door. Devon seems to forget Carlisle is much stronger then him. Carlisle takes Devon's arms behind his back and pins him up against the wall.

"Fuck off Carlisle!"

Carlisle knew his troubled son didn't mean anything he was saying to him but Carlisle had to try to rein him back in before he makes things even more worst then it already is. Carlisle keeps a tight hold on Devon's arms and takes his free hand and lands 5 hard swats on Devon's backside.

"This behavior is unacceptable Devon Thomas Salvatore-Cullen. You will calm down right this instance or you will be in more trouble then you are young man."

Devon was surprised that his father just spanked him since that hasn't happened in a long time. Devon knew what he was doing was wrong but he couldn't stop himself from anything he was doing. He struggles to get out of his father's grip which means to Carlisle he didn't take his warning serious.

"Devon I would do as Carlisle says. You are enough trouble as it is."

Stefan warns his younger brother but hearing Stefan's voice made him even more upset since in Devon's mind he shouldn't even be here.

"Shut the fuck up Stefan. Just go back home!"

"Okay, that does it. Upstairs to my office now"

Carlisle sternly tells him. He forces Devon upstairs and tells Stefan to stay downstairs with the rest of the family while he deals with Devon. Devon was cussing and yelling the whole time going upstairs and Carlisle has had enough of his poor behavior and his bad attitude. Carlisle knows he is acting this way due to the human blood and from being caught. If any of his children got caught in lies or breaking any of the rules they always seem to get an attitude with him or there mother but Devon was taking this all to a whole new level.

Carlisle sits Devon down on the chair in front of his desk and tells him with a stern tone to not move out of the seat. Devon listens to what Carlisle says since he knew how much trouble he was in right now. Carlisle runs a hand through his hair and sighs in disappointment at his son. He knew Devon had his fair share of problems but Esme and him didn't know how bad everything really was for Devon. He has accepted them as family and his parents and has opened up to them but he still kept things inside and didn't tell them everything that was really going on with him. Carlisle knew since he got back he hasn't been himself but Carlisle try to let Devon come to him or Esme before anything got out of control but Devon unfortunately did let it get to that point.

"Devon, look at me son."

Devon hears his father but he just keeps his head down and stares at the floor. Carlisle's patience was wearing thin with him. Carlisle knew Devon knew better. Carlisle stands in front of his desk and in frustration runs his hand through his hair.

"Devon, I said to look at me."

Devon rolls his eyes in annoyance but picks up his head and looks at his father. Devon saw the frustration with him in his father's face and how angry he was. Devon knew he has gotten him mad with him before but he can see how different this was this time. He never seen him this mad before and it was kind of scary for him.

"Do you want to explain to me what the hell you are thinking Devon?"

Carlisle asks with a hint of irritation to his voice. Devon bites his lip in nervously and shrugs his shoulders.

"Verbal response Devon."

Taking a deep breathe and shaking his head in anger and annoyance…

"Why the fuck does it even matter? You are not my father Carlisle."

Hearing those words out of his son's mouth stung him a bit but he knew Devon didn't mean it but it didn't mean it hurt a bit. Carlisle lets out a deep breathe he didn't need to hold but habits got the best of him. He was trying to calm down before dealing with his disrespectful son.
