"ok, britt, bedtime baby!" quinn called to brittany who was playing with her stuffed monkey with her blue footie pajamas on.
"but i want a cookie, mommy!" brittany shouted, and whined, stomping her foot a little. "hey, it is past your bedtime, so don't even try to start a fight with me. and you already had 2 cookies today, i think that's enough for one day, huh?" quinn sighed. "no more cookies."
brittany stomped her face and grunted. rachel walked in the room and sighed when she saw brittany on the floor with her back turned to quinn, and quinn with her hands on her hips. rachel crouched down to brittany's level.
"what's the fuss about, babe?" she rubbed her knee. "mommy won't let me have a cookie!" she said, beginning to sniffle. rachel looked up at quinn. "don't." quinn mouthed, she knew rachel was going to baby her.
rachel sighed. "sweetheart, i'm sorry, but mommy's right, it is past your bedtime and if little girls like you don't get some sleep, they're gonna be a cranky pants, right? come on, bedtime honey." rachel said gently to brittany.
but things got worse when brittany blew into a full on tantrum. she started kicking and screaming and banging her feet to the hardwood floor. "brittany susan, if you don't get up off the floor, you'll be going to bed with a sore bottom and you won't get a cookie tomorrow." quinn warned her only for brittany to scream louder.
quinn sighed and as calm and collected as she could, grabbed brittany's wrist and brought her to a chair where quinn sat down and laid brittany over her and started to rain spanks on her bottom. "you don't act up when mommy tells you not to, understand?" quinn stopped for brittany to catch a breath.
"yes mommy i'm sorry. please, no more." brittany whimpered for forgiveness. "i know baby, five more, it's ok." quinn sighed. she hates punishing her little.
the fifth spank made brittany scream. quinn sat her up stroking her back and making sure her butt wasn't touching anything sensitive. "hey bug, come here." rachel whispered gently to brittany who was still crying loudly and tears streaming down her face. "oh britt, what are we gonna do with you huh?" rachel said, wiping her tears. "shhh." she gave the baby her favorite pacifier to soothe her a little.
"i'm sorry bubba, mommy didn't want to spank you but you threw a fit. are you gonna throw another fit?" brittany shook her head and cuddled in the crook of rachel's neck, still tears coming down occasionally.
"time to go night-night, ok? mommy and mama love you." quinn kissed the back of her baby's head. rachel walked down the hall where brittany's room was and made sure she had her blanket, her stuffed monkey, and pacifier, which was still in her mouth. rachel still felt bad even though the little girl already had 2 cookies today.
brittany sniffled and cuddled her stuffie. rachel was about to turn out the light but she went back in the room. "hey sweetheart, still want that cookie?" rachel brushed brittany's whispy little baby hairs back. britt nodded eagerly. "ok come on, but we have to be really quiet, we don't want mommy to hear us, right?" rachel shushed playfully and brittany giggled and took her hand.
rachel made sure that quinn was asleep first, then quietly scrambled down the stairs. she opened the cookie jar and got out one cookie and gave it to brittany. "alright, what do you say baby?"
"thank you mama." she said, stuffing the cookie in her mouth. "you're welcome my baby, now come on, let's get your sore bottom to bed." rachel picked her up and walked upstairs. she tucked her in the bed and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "goodnight sweetheart." "night night mama." she said sleepily.
