This is an ONE SHOT and notconnected to the other stories.
Mystic Falls High School
Mystic Falls, Virginia
Prank night was pretty much a bust. The gang decided to just go swimming in the large pool before leaving.
Tyler grinned, "Twenty bucks to any gals who want to get skinny dipping!'
Matt laughed and said, "Ty, you're gonna get pushed in the pool in your clothes if you don't shut it!"
Bonnie kicked at Tyler's leg with her foot, "First of all, Tyler, that is disgusting. Second of all, twenty bucks. Like you leave in a freakin' mansion. Cheap ass!"
Elena squealed at Stefan picked her up and pretended to throw her in the pool.
"My cell phone is in my pocket and if you throw me in, we're done! Not kidding, Stefan," Elena smirked as he carefully put her down and backed up.
"I love you," Stefan said apologetically.
"You better. Last one to get dressed and in the pool is a rotten egg!" Elena yelled following Caroline and Bonnie into the locker room.
Matt, Tyler, and Stefan looked at each other.
"Can't we just swim in our boxers?" Matt asked loudly.
"You could if you wear boxers...," Stefan said awkwardly.
"Dude, too much information. Do you like need to borrow shorts?" Tyler asked in a low voice.
"Yeah, actually, that would be great. I guess I just got in the habit of going commando...Thanks, man," Stefan finished.
"I'll grab some and be right back," Tyler said trotting off to the boys' locker room.
Matt asked, "Did people, like in olden times, not have underwear?"
"Oh no, we had underwear, they were a bit longer and bulkier," Stefan said with his face reddening.
"Sorry, am I embarrassing you? I didn't mean to, I just don't know that much about stuff like that," Matt added.
"No, it's fine. Sorry, I can be a little old-fashioned. Being around all of you makes me want to be young and fun and happy. I want to be the kind of boyfriend Elena deserves," Stefan confided.
Matt's face fell, "Whatever, man."
Stefan realized that he had just hurt Matt. "Matt, I'm sorry. I didn't mean..." But Matt had already jumped into the pool.
Tyler called to Stefan, "Come on, Stefan. I found you shorts. Hurry up."
A few minutes later, everyone was jumping or getting pushed into the pool. Stefan came out and his eyes got wide to see Elena in her black lace bra and panties. She noticed his attention and explained, "I refuse to wear that ugly one piece uniform. My underwear is actually even less revealing than my actual bikini so I thought it would be fine...I mean, it's not like it is see through, right?"
Stefan's voice caught in his throat, "Oh, yeah, it's great."
From behind, Stefan and Elena heard, "What my brother means to say is that you have beautiful underwear, Elena. I really like the color black on you."
Elena laughed. Stefan groaned, "Damon, what are you doing here?"
"You left me a text that you were swimming and I thought I should supervise. I don't see a life guard on duty," Damon yelled out.
Bonnie called out, "Matt and I are official lifeguards, Damon. We know CPR, you can leave!"
"I love you, too, Bonbon, but I think I will stay," Damon said taking off his shirt.
"What's he doing Stefan?" Elena asked.
Stefan shook his head, "I don't want to know."
"It's called swimming," Damon said stripping off his jeans and shoes quickly. Damon had on navy blue boxer briefs.
Stefan rolled his eyes, "Damon, go home!"
Elena patted him on the arm, "Stefan, don't be mean. He's fine. Let him stay."
Stefan grumbled, "Fine. But Damon, don't be a dick."
"Me? Be a dick? Come on, little Brother, I am a joy to be around. Pool volleyball anyone?" Damon inquired.
After a half hour of pool games and frolicking, the gang was getting restless.
Matt hollered, "Hey guys, we better wrap it up before our luck runs out."
Stefan had been watching Elena play volleyball with her friends and Damon just weaseled his way into the group easily. Elena was giggling and seemed to be having a blast, Stefan was jealous. He had to ratchet up his fun factor. Stefan had tried a few jokes and no one laughed. A prank? It was prank night, after all.
Elena swam over to Stefan. He asked, "Ready to get out? Here let me help you."
"Yes, thanks," Elena smiled, trusting Stefan to easily lift her out of the five feet of water.
Instead, Stefan lifted her and slipped down the back of her underpants revealing her bare behind to the rest of the pool.
"Oh whoops, I am sorry, Elena. Did you moon the pool? My bad..." Stefan said boldly.
Elena screamed, "Stefan, what the hell? Did you do that on purpose?"
Tyler was laughing, "Dude, twenty bucks goes to Stefan!"
Matt's face and neck got red. "Not cool, man."
"Tyler, you are a fucking idiot. Stefan, that is not funny," Bonnie screamed.
Caroline grabbed Tyler took him to the side and gave him an ear blistering scolding within hearing of the rest of the pool.
Damon's face was stone, he jumped out of the pool and grabbed his brother.
Stefan's face was devastated, "I am sorry. I thought it would be funny. It's prank night. I wanted to make you all laugh."
Elena was furious, but did not want Damon to handle this. She was the wronged party.
"Stefan, it was not funny. Damon, I know you want to rip Stefan's head off now, but let me handle it. It was a childish prank," Elena said firmly.
"And in our day misbehaving children got a good spanking," Damon spat still grabbing his brother's bicep.
Stefan paled, "Come on, Damon, it's been a long time since I've been over your knee. I said I was sorry."
Elena pushed her way in between the two brothers and announced, "Damon, I swear, if he does something stupid like this again, he'll get a spanking from me. That's a promise, Stefan. Do you understand? I am not kidding, you really embarrassed me and were out of line."
Stefan put his arms around her, "Elena, I am so sorry. Yes, I understand. Can we just go and forgot about this?"
Elena cast one last look at Damon and walked off arm in arm with Stefan. She did warn him one more time that he had been very close to being punished by his brother and swatted him firmly over his wet shorts borrowed from Tyler. That got a laugh out of the gang. They laughed even harder when Stefan could not help rubbing the spot Elena smacked.
"And next time, your pants will be coming down," Elena vowed.
"Yes, ma'am, there won't be a next time, I swear," Stefan said earnestly.
Four Months Later
Steven's Quarry
Late Afternoon
School was finally out and the gang was all assembled for a party at the swimming hole. Elena drove Stefan and was planning to meet everyone else there. Elena grabbed her bag and towel and Stefan carried a cooler. They had been arguing earlier in the day and almost didn't make it to the party. It was getting late and some of the other teens had already been there for hours.
"Hey, there's Jeremy," Elena said, "Ah, put the cooler over there. I'm going to go talk to him."
Stefan put the cooler down and watched as his beautiful dark haired girl friend talked to her bratty little brother. Jeremy was flirting with two girls in the lake and was pretty smart with Elena. Stefan refrained from rolling his eyes again. He supposed Jeremy was young and had been through a lot. Plus, Stefan should not have been listening in on the conversation in the first place.
Caroline bounced over, "Are you eavesdropping?"
Stefan blinked hard, "Ah no, just enjoying the beautiful weather. Want a beer?"
"It's a little early, no? I think I'll just stick to water, but thanks," Caroline said looking at Stefan oddly.
"What, Caroline? Just say it," Stefan snapped.
"Stefan, are you okay? You seem a little tense. This is supposed to be a fun day. You know, school is out. Time to relax and let go a little. I think you are the one who needs the beer," Caroline said gently.
"Honestly, I brought something a lot stronger!" Stefan confided pulling out a flask filled with Damon's second best bourbon. He never could find the best.
"Oh," Caroline said in surprise. "Yeah, well, I will leave you to your own little party. Have fun."
"Thanks for the company," Stefan said as she walked off.
Stefan tried not to look back at the spot where that old shack had been 160 or so years back. He and Damon had woken up there dead, but not quite dead. He had been willing to die, but Damon forced his hand. He never knew the first victim's name, but the second one was Giuseppe Salvatore. He had killed his own father. As the dark thoughts overtook him, Stefan drank through the contents of his flask. He had another one filled to the brim. The alcohol helped with the cravings, the cravings for blood. Stefan's eyes found Elena. She was now chatting with Matt and another girl from school. She looked radiant in the sun. She wore a white bikini today with scant cut off jean shorts. Stefan shook his head as if to dispel the thoughts of the past.
Jeremy tapped Stefan on the arm, "Hey man, are you alright? You look like you want to kill Matt right now? I mean, I'm sure it's weird to see your girl talking to her ex, but you know she doesn't like Matt?" Stefan now heard music. Someone had brought a portable music player and started to blast the tunes across the quarry.
"Hey, Jeremy, yeah, I know that. Thanks," Stefan said still staring at Elena.
"Stefan, dude, you need to relax. Come take a walk with me. I got something for you. Just don't tell my sister," Jeremy smiled. Jeremy walked Stefan to the tree line and stopped behind a large tree to shield them from view.
Stefan was curious as to what Jeremy had in mind, he was alarmed to see Jeremy put out a joint and a lighter. "You ever smoke before, man?"
Stefan smiled, "I was in Chicago during the roarin' 20s. Did you ever smoke hashish? No, do not answer that." Stefan took the joint and lit it and breathed in the pungent fumes. He coughed harshly.
Jeremy laughed and took back the joint, "You are pretty cool for an old dude."
Stefan smiled and began to laugh, too. "I could be your great, great, great grandfather!"
Jeremy sucked in another hit and nodded, "Weird."
"Not really. I actually knew your great, great, great grandfather. Sorry, he was an asshole!" Stefan guffawed.
"Are you high already?" Jeremy snickered.
"And drunk!" Stefan admitted.
"Oh, Elena is gonna bust your butt. Dude, she's looking for you. Cover me. If she finds me, she is going to send me to therapy!" Jeremy said in horror.
"Therapy?...Fine," Stefan turned and called out to Elena.
"Oh, Stef, there you are? Let's go swimming. I am hot and I know you wanted to see this bikini!" Elena said sexily. She shimmied down her jean shorts slowly.
"Oh, yeah, time for the water!" Stefan gulped. He did really like the fashions of this time. He wondered what the modern teen would think of men's striped bathing costumes. He chuckled to himself.
"What?" Elena said in confusion.
"Oh, let me take off my clothes," Stefan said. This time he had come prepared and wore swim trunks under his shorts and t-shirt. He felt the pulse of the stereo bounce through his body and stepped into the cool water of the quarry. He should have died here, he thought. But yet, maybe Damon was right? He grabbed Elena and picked her up. She was good. She was his happiness, his life now. He would live well for her and they could be happy.
"Stefan! Put me down," Elena yelled. Kids were now looking at the couple. Stefan was holding Elena as if she was as light as a feather. He begun to spin her until he was dizzy.
Jeremy was at the water's edge. "Stefan, put her down. Everyone is looking!" Stefan was waist deep in the water, but moving quicker than a human could probably do.
Stefan went to lower Elena and his hand roughly brushed the back of her top loosening it. As Stefan took his hand off to fix it, he pulled the string by mistake and her top flew off. In shock, Stefan dropped Elena into the freezing cold water with a splash. Her breasts were exposed as she had to brace her fall with her hands.
The teens in the crowd gasped and two strangers, to Stefan, ran to help Elena, but the damage was done. Caroline and Bonnie appeared out of nowhere and retied Elena's bikini top and got her a dry towel.
Stefan stood there stupidly in shook. Jeremy's mouth was open. Elena thanked the girls around her and handed the towel back to Bonnie. Advancing on Stefan quickly, Elena grabbed his arm. At first he thought she was going to backhand him. Instead, Elena pulled Stefan out of the water. When they were back on the shore, she ignored his babbled apologies and yanked down the back of his swim trunks. Stefan's hands went to hold up his shorts but Elena slapped his hands away.
Once his wet bottom was partially bare, Elena turned her vampire boyfriend to the side and cracked his behind hard twice. Crack! Crack! The smacks sounded like gunshots on his white bottom and he flinched with each swat. Stefan's hands flew back to protect his vulnerable seat and Elena finally let him pull his pants back up after spanking him once more. Crack!
Elena asked Jeremy to grab the cooler and her bag and put it in the car. He snapped to attention and Bonnie and Caroline helped Jeremy get the door open and everything packed while Elena dragged Stefan to the car by his ear lobe.
"Elena, I am so sorry," Stefan pleaded. Her eyes were filling with unshed tears, he felt awful.
"You are getting the spanking of your life when we get home. I am going to set those wet swim trunk on fire, Stefan. Do you hear me? I have never been so humiliated in my entire life!" Elena ranted in front of her brother and her friends. They all gave Stefan reproachful glances as Elena steered him to the passenger side and buckled Stefan in as if he were a child. She then slammed the door and got in the driver's side.
"Drive safe," Jeremy said waving.
"She's going to kill him, isn't she?" Bonnie said.
Damon arrived with a cooler, "Ah, where are those two off to?"
Caroline cringed, "Damon, believe us when we say that you do not want to know!"
Elena pounded the steering wheel in frustration, "You are drunk, aren't you? You think I can't tell! When we get to my house, you go right upstairs and park your nose in the corner of my bedroom. I guess I should have put you right over my knee the first time you assaulted me in the water, but no, I gave you a second chance and this is how you behave?"
Stefan began to cry, "Elena, please don't do this. I know you said you were going to...but you don't have to."
"I said I was going to what, Stefan? Say it!" Elena demanded raising her voice.
"Give me a spanking, but it was an accident," Stefan whined with tears running down his face.
"You're crying now? Go ahead, but when I get you home I am really going to give you something to cry about," Elena lectured. "And you can forget about going out tonight. You will be going to bed early at my house tonight. I will call Damon and tell him you are being punished."
"No, please, don't tell him I'm getting a spanking. He will...," Stefan was now sobbing too hard to talk.
"He what?" Elena pressed.
"He will give me a licking himself. Lexi let it slip one time that she got me off human blood by using spankings. Damon warned him if I didn't shape up, I was in for it," Stefan said hiccuping and wiping away his tears.
"Stefan, I am trying to calm down. You know we all love you, but sometimes you do act up and need a little discipline to move on. Now, I want you to hush and think about what is going to happen when we get home," Elena said firmly.
Stefan cried, "Give me one more chance, Elena. I can behave!" Stefan stomped his feet on the floor of the SUV and kicked.
"One more word out of you or anymore stomping and I will pull over and blister your sassy rump on the side of the road. Now, zip it!" Elena threatened.
Stefan continued to whimper and folded his arms.
Twenty minutes later, they were home. Elena pulled in and Stefan made no move to exit the vehicle. Elena came around to Stefan's side and opened the door and pulled him out. If her neighbor had not been power walking around the block right now, Elena would have spanked him again. His behavior had been atrocious.
Once inside the Gilbert residence, Elena did remind Stefan of her expectations while in the corner.
"You put your heads on your head and take down your pants to your knees." Elena kissed him on the cheek and then seat Stefan upstairs with a tremendous smack.
"Owieeee," Stefan complained holding his behind and trudging upstair.
Elena texted Damon that Stefan would be back tomorrow. She had something to eat and then went upstairs to administer Stefan's punishment.
Stefan was in the corner shifting from foot to foot. Elena got the straight backed chair from her desk and turned it around. She sat in the chair still in her bikini outfit.
"Come here," Elena said holding out her hands to Stefan. "You're lucky Jenna is out of town with Alaric this weekend. It will at least give us some privacy."
"Elena...," Stefan tried. Elena just ignored his pleas.
"I love you but what you did was disrespectful and dangerous. What if people suspect you are not human? Hmm. And now the whole school has seen my chest. I hope no one took pictures," Elena said firmly.
Stefan began to weep lightly, "I know."
Elena patted her thighs, "Over. We might have to make a habit out of this to keep you on track."
Stefan griped, "No!" Stefan laid himself over her lap so his hands were touching the floor. She immediately held him around the waist with her left arm and raised her right knee to get more access to his entire backside. His shorts were tangled around his knees.
Elena rested her hand on Stefan's damp buttocks, she rubbed the surface lightly. .Smack!
Stefan caught his breath, the smack stung but it was not unbearable. Elena had small, soft hands. Elena began spanking Stefan in earnest randomly for the next two minutes. The skin seemed to turn a slight blush, but her swats seemed to have no effect. She sighed.
"This is not working. You are healing too fast and I know you are not learning that lesson. Pull your pants up a minute. I think I have a solution," Elena said.
"What?" Stefan asked timidly.
"When Jeremy started acting up in middle school, my Uncle John gave my dad the paddle my granddad used to spank them with," Elena said. "I think my dad only had to paddle him once and the threat of that thing was enough to straighten him out. Maybe Jenna ought to start using it on him?"
She told Stefan to sit back down in the chair that she was just spanking him in. Stefan sat nervously and wiped tears from his eyes. Maybe he could take this chance and reason with her again, this spanking wasn't working. When Lexi spanked, she was a using her vampire strength. Sometimes, she also used a hairbrush, but Stefan was not planning on sharing that.
Jeremy's Room
Elena went through the jack-and-jill bathroom into her brother's room. She remembered Jeremy getting his first paddling from their dad and her dad saying, "And the paddle stays in this drawer as a reminder for you to behave. If not, you can expect another spanking!" To her knowledge, that had not happened, but the problem was she did not know which drawer the paddle was in or if Jeremy had chucked the thing in the garbage after their parents died. Jenna would never use something like that on them no matter what they did.
Elena rummaged through three drawers before finding the old paddle in the bottom of Jeremy's dresser in his jeans drawer.
"Bingo!" Elena said holding the round, wooden paddle. It had a silly illustration of a little boy with no pants on getting paddled. The text was rubbed off by either old age or usage. Elena hoped that her Uncle John had taken the brunt of the paddlings in the family rather than her sweet, kind father. He really had to have lost his patience with Jeremy to use this thing.
Elena found Stefan sniffling and wiggling anxiously on the chair still in his damp swim trunks.
"This paddle might actually set the seat of your shorts on fire like I promised," Elena suggested holding up the paddle.
Stefan gulped and seeing the determined look in her eye decided not to fight her.
"I am ready to get this over with," Stefan said standing up. Elena resumed her seat and soon Stefan was back over her knee, this time with his still wet shorts on. They clung to his already heated up seat and Stefan could not stop shifting in discomfit. Elena arranged him so his head was closer to the ground and his feet were in the air. Stefan began to sob again from the shameful position. He remembered how many times Lexi had done this very same thing.
"I warned you I would give you something to cry about," Elena tapped him once with the paddle and then started spanking him harder than he ever thought possible. Was she a vampire?
Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
Elijah whacked him from cheek to cheek for a flurry of hard cracks. Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
Then, she raised up her right leg even higher on the rung of the chair and paddled Stefan with a new found enthusiasm. Stefan found himself kicking and wiggling as the wooden paddle descended over and over on his dampened shorts. It did burn something awful.
Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
"Where did you learn to spank like this?" Stefan gasped in horror. Elena was no amateur.
"Oh Paster Young taught me when I babysit his daughter. Then, I got a bunch of jobs at that church. They weren't like my mom with the time outs. Little April was always getting into trouble," Elena admitted continuing the spanking lower on Stefan's backside nailing his sit spots. Stefan shouted and cried, but Elena continued.
She order him to lift and she wrestled down his dampened pants with some difficulty. The paddle rested on his slightly damp rear. Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
"I-I am sorrrry," Stefan wailed. Elena continued paddling for another entire minute before pausing.
"Were you drunk?" Elene inquired.
"Y-Yessss, I am sorrry," Stefan cried. "I w-was jealous. I-I dddd-don't know how to be f-funnn!"
"Is that what this is about?" Elena asked in surprise. Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
"Stefan, I love you for you! You don't have to pretend to be silly or a moron to be fun. You know to be yourself. Okay?" Elena said popping him in a randomly pattern as he kicked and pounded the floor with his fists.
Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
"A few more and you are all forgiven," Elena said now paddling in the same spot right in the center of his red backside on his lower cheeks. Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
She carefully put the paddle down by her right side and rubbed Stefan's rear end. Elena spoke to Stefan in a calm voice and rubbed his back.
"All forgiven. I am going to let you up," Elena said her anger drained and replaced by compassion. She hated to see Stefan so upset.
She helped him stand and he clutched his burning bum for a few seconds before looking at her. Elena stood and let Stefan hug her. "I am so sorry, Elena. I deserved that spanking."
"You did. Your butt is fire engine red. I think the wet shorts didn't help. Do you want to take a shower and go right to bed?" Elena asked. She grabbed some tissued and handed them to Stefan to blow his nose and wipe his eyes. She had never seen him cry so much, but he seemed to let out a lot of the emotions that swirled around in him like sand in an hour glass.
"Can we just go to bed? My behind is stinging like I said on a wasps' nest. I just want to hold you and maybe my butt a little until it cools off. Elena, how did you get so strong?" Stefan smiled.
"Practice, I guess. I hope you really learned a lesson here tonight," Elena said quietly.
"I did...Be myself, don't do pranks, and I have the strongest girlfriend in Mystic Falls," Stefan said sneaking a hand to his backside to rub.
"Hey, you took a pretty good paddling. I love you and I forgive you...but no more silliness. I am going to hang on to this paddle in case you act up again," Elena vowed.
"I won't. I promise!" Stefan replied. He would never give her a reason to spank him again.
"Oh, Damon texted back. He said he would catch up with you tomorrow when you got home. He loves you, too," Elena assured him.
Stefan groaned, "I know, but I have a feeling this isn't the only night I will be going to bed with a sore butt this week..."
"You can be on top. Now shut up and kiss me or you know what I will do," Elena teased.
Stefan's eyes' widened and he immediately obeyed. Kissing his lovely girlfriend was no chore, quite the opposite.
Elena laughed and kissed him back . For right now, all was well in Mystic Falls.
