Chapter 3 – Punishment is painful

Haley knew that Jamie was up but she was waiting for him to get his ass down stairs. Jamie knew he was in trouble but, he hadn't heard his mom for a while so he figured that she had gone out so he snuck down stairs and went to the kitchen; he opened the front door and grabbed the orange juice carton out of the fridge. When Jamie shut the door he turned around and there stood Haley furious as hell.

"Hey mom." Jamie said with a shaky voice backing away as Haley was walking towards him

"Don't you hey mom me mister." Haley's voice slightly increasing

"So what do you have to say for yourself Jamie?" Haley asked crossing her arms across her chest

"I love you mom, please don't kill me, I'm sorry." Jamie replied scared by his mother's stern look he knew she was going to dish out a crap punishment.

"I let you go to the party because you were good and your grades are perfect and this is what I get for it? You coming home way pass your curfew, actually 3 hours pass your curfew. You were drunk and could hardly stand so I don't know how you could run from the butterflies that were supposedly after you. Then in the morning you let me wait for you to show your face down stairs and when you do, you make a big joke out of it." Haley was so disappointed that she could say anything else

"Do you know what Jamie? You're grounded for two months that means you go to school and back home okay; you have no television and no phone. Oh yeah and most of all you have no basketball; you're not allowed to play for two weeks. You need to learn Jamie and if I don't use basketball as a punishment you're never ever going to learn." Haley walked into the front room and was followed by an angry and upset Jamie.

"Mom that is not fair. I love basketball and you know it. The no TV I can deal with being grounded I can deal with even no phone I can live without but, basketball is the one thing that I love and you are going to take it away from me for two whole weeks." Jamie yelled

"No what's not fair is you speaking to me like that, you betraying me like you did. So yeah Jamie you're having no basketball for two weeks and that is final." Haley grabbed her car keys and left for work. She couldn't believe Jamie would do that to her.

Brooke was standing at the kitchen counter with her arms crossed along her chest. She was so disappointed with her daughters.

"So, are you going to explain?" Brooke asked

"Well mom. We went to a party got drunk and mouthed off to dad. Can we go now?" October replied walking fast to the stairs with April by her side

"Not so fast girls. I said be good when you left yesterday morning. You promised me that you would." Brooke told the girls. "Girls I am so disappointed with you. I can't believe you would do that. So tomorrow you will ring your dad and apologise to him okay."

"Okay fine mom. We'll apologise to dad and only dad." April huffed

"So now your punishment. You are grounded for 1 month which means school and back okay, you are not allowed any phone or television. Oh yeah and no cheerleading for a week." Brooke made her ground

"What do you mean no cheerleading? We live to cheer." October cried

"I mean exactly that. You are not allowed to cheer." Brooke replied

"But mom, we are the captains. How will that look?" April asked

"It will look like that you and your sister her are learning a valuable lesson." Brooke walked off and left a stunned October and April sitting at the kitchen counter. Brooke turned round. "Sorry girls but, I am being serious on this one. You need to learn."

"FINE." October shouted as she rushed pass Brooke and up to her room

"FINE MOM. BE LIKE THAT." April yelled while following October to her room.

Lucas just arrived back at his house to be greeted by his girlfriend Peyton. Lucas was still shocked about what had just happened.

"So Luke, what did Brooke do? Did she go crazy at them like when she caught us in bed babe? Did her face go bright red in embarrassment like when she walked in on us having sex Luke? What did she do Lucas?" Peyton wanted to know so badly

"Well Peyton, when I got there she asked me in and we talked about what the girls had done and then she asked me to leave." Lucas sat down on the settee and turned to Peyton. "No Peyton she didn't go crazy well as far as I know she didn't, she could of after I left I suppose. Her face didn't go red she was quite calm Peyton."

Peyton's face dropped and she just stared at Lucas.

"Oh okay. So when are we having them brats again?" Peyton asked

"Peyton they are not brats they are my daughters and the next time we have October and April is next Tuesday." Lucas replied

"Oh goodie. I can't wait" Peyton said sarcastically

"Right so now we have time alone. What do you want to do Peyt?" Lucas asked

"Erm I want to go and get pissed because I couldn't last night." Peyton repiled

"Oh okay. We can go to the new club that is opening tonight on the high street." Lucas walked over to his computer and typed in the club to see what time it was opening.

"Yeah okay babe. We can go there." Peyton walked over to Lucas and gave him a big huge.

Peyton went back to the settee and Lucas followed her. Lucas sat down and Peyton straddled on him and placed a soft kiss on his lips. Lucas kissed her back and they began to make out. Lucas's tongue was begging Peyton for entrance and she quickly accepted. Lucas then started to unbutton Peyton's top and picked her up and laid her down. He then got on top of her and took her top of and flung in on the floor. Peyton unbutton Lucas's top took it off of him and threw it on the floor. Lucas pulled Peyton's skirt of and slid her kickers of and flung them next to her top and skirt. Peyton unzipped Lucas's jeans and pulled them off of him. Then they started to make love. They made love for 20 minutes. When they had finished they got ready for the night they were about to have.

It was now 10:00 at night. October and April haven't spoken to their mother since the morning. They have been in their room for the whole day.

"It's not fair. I can deal with being ground; I can even deal with no phone or TV. Cheerleading is going over the top." October whined to her sister

"I know. I love cheerleading and know we can't do it for a week. What is everyone going to think when we turn up to school and can't cheer." April asked her sister

"I don't know April. We'll have to tell them the truth. It's only a week. Hopefully we can get past this. We'll have to hire someone as the captain's for that week. Okay." October replied

"Fine Sis. I suppose we can do that. I recommend Charlotte to take over my place. What about you October?" April asked

"Well I recommend Rubiie to take my place." October told her sister before sitting on her bed.

"We better ring dad before it's too late. We better apologise to him. I'm only apologising to him not peytwhore." April picked up the phone and dialled her dad's number. She waited for a response.

"Hello" Lucas said into the phone

"Hey dad it's April." April replied

"Oh hey April, did you want something?" Lucas asked

"Erm well I wanted to apologise for what I had done the other night. I should have never snuck out and got drunk then mouth off to you. I am truly sorry about that." April replied. "I'm going to go dad because October wants to speak to you too. Bye daddy."

"Bye April see you next week Tuesday okay." Lucas said

April passed the phone to October who didn't want to apologise but she had too.

"Hey dad" October mumbled down the phone

"Hey October, April said you wanted to speak to me." Lucas told October

"Yeah there is. Erm well I wanted to apologise to you about the other night. I am sorry for sneaking out and getting drunk. I should not of done any of that and I am sorry for mouthing off to you. I was drunk and didn't know what I was doing." October lied.

"It's okay October. It's over and done with now. We can move on. You apologised and I accept." Lucas replied.

"Okay dad, well I am going to go because we have to head off to bed because we have a lot to do tomorrow but, I guess I'll see you sometime next week." October said. "Bye dad. See you sometime next week."

"See you next week Tuesday October bye." Lucas hung up and so did October.

"So what are we doing tomorrow were grounded" April reminded October.

Oh yeah. I better text Kieran and tell him I am grounded. Why does dad have to ruin everything? Arrggghh!!!!" October yelled

"I don't know October. Did you have a date? I didn't know that." April asked

"Yeah you did because you had one to with Reece. We were going on a double date but, I guess were not anymore." October replied

"Oh okay. I better text Reece and tell him I'm grounded too then." April replied

October grabbed her phone and started to text her date. October wrote: Hey Kieran it's me October. I know we had a date tomorrow afternoon but the thing is that I am grounded for a month and that means I can't make our date. Sorry. Love October. October sent the message and slumped on her bed. October got a message back saying: Hey October, don't worry about tomorrow. We can go on a date next month. I doesn't matter. I like you and I don't mind waiting. See you on Monday. Love Kieran. October was relieved and happy that Kieran likes her because she liked him as well.

April also grabbed her phone and began to text her date. It read: Hey Reece, I'm sorry but I can't make out date tomorrow afternoon because I am grounded. I would have love to come but I can't I am grounded for a month. So we'll have to make our date after that. Love April. P.s. text me back. April sent the message and slumped next to October on her bed. April got a text back which said: Hey April no worries April. I guess we can make a date in 4 week. I like you so much and I can't wait for our date. See you on Monday. Love Reece. April was happy that he texted her back and that he liked her like she liked him.
