No matter how much I wished it not to be, this was happening and there was nothing I could do. Carlisle had finished opening my long-john's and had begun to rub my lower back. I can't begin to express how embarrassed I felt, lying over his knees for a spanking, bare backside and all. Before I could dwell on it too much, however, Carlisle spoke.
"Now if you had not run from me we could have had this conversation face to face." He sighed, and I could swear I felt my cheeks burn, even though it is impossible for them to flush. Carlisle stopped rubbing my back as he continued. "This is how it is going to go Edward. I will never use anything other than my hand on you. That is not only because it would, undoubtedly, be ineffective to vampire skin, but also because I…" He trailed off, but I heard his unspoken words… I love you too much. He didn't want to make me uncomfortable by saying them out loud, so he quickly changed his wording as I was once again wracked with guilt. "I find the idea of implements too harsh and impersonal. I believe that a spanking should always be administered to an unclothed bottom for it to be completely effective. Therefore before any punishment, you will be asked to unfasten your trousers yourself; if you feel you are unable I can do so for you." He thought briefly of moments before when he had to do just that. "And finally, the punishment has no set length, and will continue until I feel the lesson is learned."
He paused now, letting it all soak in, and although he didn't show it, I knew he was worried about me. Questions flittered through his mind too quickly to address. Would he push me away by doing this? Is he being too harsh? Would I hate him?
I didn't know what to say to sooth him. What could I say? It was all my fault. After a moment of uneasy silence he spoke again, softly. "If you have issue with any of these aspects of punishment, we will most certainly be able to discuss it. But for this particular punishment, I feel that the possibility for discussion was lost with your attempts to elude it. I feel any discussion should be left for when you can act according to your years. As I said before, childish behavior is not rewarded with adult privileges. Do you understand my decision?"
I winced, but nodded solemnly in response, eyes still trained on the floor. I knew it was almost time and I was becoming increasingly anxious.
Alright then. He gave my back another quick rub before stilling his hand. "I want you to tell me now Edward. Why are you about to receive this spanking?"
"umm…" I certainly wasn't expecting that. I shifted on his lap. "Because I acted childishly."
"Yes, but what specifically did you do?" He prodded.
"I… I was disrespectful, and I purposely shattered your crystal bowl."
"Very good. And now that you know the reason you are being punished, it is time to begin."
His hand that had been resting on my back, gave another soothing rub before he wrapped his arm around my waist. He let out a heavy sigh, and in his mind he again prayed for strength. Peeking back at him, I watched as he raised his hand high. I grimaced in anticipation but he paused then, hand in the air, and closed his eyes. Silently he was struggling with himself to continue. Quickly, I moved my eyes from his pained expression and tried to brace myself for the inevitable first swat.
A/N: I know, I know. I'm sorry it's short, but when I got to this point it just seemed like it was meant to end the chapter here. Sorry!! But, Please, PLEASE review! Pretty please? I would really like to know how everyone thinks the story is so far. The more reviews the faster the update!!
