Roman considers himself calm at least until he's pushed. Right now Dean and Seth are pushing him though. Dean mainly since he was setting Seth off into a whining fit which will end baddly as normal. Roman closes his eyes in the kitchen he cuts up some veggies, sounding out a warning, "If I have to come in there, both of you are going to bed with sore bottoms."

Roman knows they heard him because they both went silent. He then can hear a faint mumble of Dean's but he can't make out what.

Seth's whining is hitting a higher pitch when he whines, "No your going to get me spanked.."

Dean snickers and Roman puts down his knife, counting to 5, knowing he was going to have to deal with both of his brothers. He then blinks when he hears skin hitting skin and then Seth cry. Roman sighs and then walks to the living room. He looks at the scene. Obviously Dean had pushed Seth too far and Seth over reacted as normal.

Roman crosses his arms, seeing the faint redness on Dean's cheek and Seth crying curled up in the corner.

Roman snaps his fingers to get their attention, "Move now."

Dean sulks but walks over in front of Roman and Seth wipes his eyes, and moves to stand as well in front of Roman.

Roman waits, "explain."

Dean looks at Roman, "I was teasing and Seth hit me."

Seth sniffles, "He kept poking and harassing me."

Roman looks at both of them, "Dean."

Dean huffs, "I was just having some fun, doesn't mean he can hit me."

Roman nods, "By teasing your baby brother into a state and not stopping when I told you."

Dean bites his lip, "Well.. yeah.. shit."

Roman points, "Seth corner now. I'll deal with you later."

Seth whines but moves to his corner and stands in it.

Roman looks at Dean, "Dean, you don't harass your baby brother that much. You should be an example and not set him up into doing something bad."

Dean sighs and nods, "I know..."

Roman crosses his arms, "And how should be you punished."

Dean bites his lip and looks hopeful, "with a stern talking to."

Roman eyes him like he grew a second head, "Oh no.. Try again."

Dean sighs and whispers, "the cane."

Roman nods, "over the back of the couch."

Dean moves, pulling off his pants and boxers as he moves and then leans over the back of the couch, holding onto the cushion.

Roman gets the cane from the closet and tests it making sure it won't break or splinter. He then walks over and stands to one side of Dean, "Dean. Explain to me why your getting a caning."

Dean mumbles, "I didn't stop when you said to and I harassed our brother into a fit and should be an example."

Dean takes a breath as he feels Roman's hand on his back.

Roman speaks softly, "your getting 10 Dean."

Dean nods and holds on tightly to the cushion. He shrieks when the cane comes down first though. With every swish and strike Dean lets out a cry, his hands on the cushions going white knuckled. Roman frowns trying to make sure not to hit the same spot twice. Roman hits 4 more hard and Dean sobs from the pain. Roman picks up the pace and the last strike is harder then the rest. Dean sobs and Roman rubs his back. Roman helps Dean stand and pulls up Dean's boxers before pulling him tightly against his chest.

Dean sobs and holds onto Roman. After Dean calms Roman guides Dean into his room and tucks him in, "sleep Dean."

Dean nods and wipes at his eyes, "Sorry Rome."

Roman smiles softly and whispers, "it's over Dean. It's OK."

Dean cuddles down into the bed.

Roman walks out into the living room, "One down and one to go."

Seth peeks back at him and Roman crooks a finger at him signalling Seth to come to him. Seth swallows and then walks over to Roman.

Roman crosses his arms as he looks down at Seth, "You know better then to hit Seth."

Seth sniffles, "Dean wouldn't stop .. he just kept going."

Roman nods, "and what do you do if someone is bothering you that much Seth?"

Seth whines, "I don't know."

Roman sighs, "You walk away or come get me."

Seth nods and whimpers, "Sorry."

Roman stands, "Now what's the rule about hitting."

Seth whispers, "not to do it."

Roman nods, "and what happens when we use our hands and not our words."

Seth fidgets and peeks at Roman, "Please no.."

Roman taps his foot, "Seth what happens when we use our hands and not our words."

Seth whines, "I get a Caning.. But Roman... "

Roman sighs and pulls Seth into his arms and holds him tightly, "I know you've never been caned Seth but you hit your brother."

Seth hiccups and holds onto Roman, "Please.. I'll be good."

Roman shakes his head, "I need to make sure you don't do it again."

Seth wipes his eyes and then nods. Roman guides Seth over to the couch, "over the back Seth."

Seth whines softly but drops his pants and boxers. He bends over the back of the couch. Roman nods and holds the cane, "I'm going to give you 5 Seth."

Seth nods and shakes softly, "o.. ok."

Roman nods and then stands to the side of Seth, rubbing his back, "calm a little Seth or it's going to hurt more."

Seth whimpers but takes a couple breaths. Roman raises his arm and with a swish strikes Seth. Seth screams and raises a leg. Roman doesn't stop though and land two more quickly. Seth cries hard and has to grip the cushion to keep from stopping Roman. Roman hands two more and Seth sobs freely. Roman then puts the cane down and pulls him to stand, pulling up his boxers. Roman holds him gently and rubs his back, "shh It's over."

Seth sobs into Roman's chest and whines, "I won't hit again.. I promise."

Roman nods and once Seth calms he guilds him into his bed room and puts him to bed. Seth sobs softly into his pillow on his tummy. Roman rubs his back and Seth calms down enough to sleep.

In the middle of the night Dean wakes, hearing soft sniffles. Dean groans and moves to his side, looking up seeing seth standing by his bed. Seth whispers softly, "I'm sorry Dean."

Dean frowns softly and pulls Seth down into his bed, holding him tightly, "Hey it's ok. Shhh"

Seth nods and holds onto Dean tightly, "I just.. I caused this. I don't want you to leave me."

Dean rubs Seth's back and whispers, "I made my own choice.. Calm down I'm not going anywhere neither is Roman."

Seth whimpers softly and clings to Dean tighter. Dean hums softly and rubs Seth back, easing him into sleep. He though makes a note to talk to Roman about this.
