"Now, let's have a little talk," Brian said, shifting Ashlynn into a more comfortable position. "You can come back over here now, Baylee."

Baylee came back over to his father, midst sniffling and rubbing his now well-spanked bottom. Him and Ashlynn had been giving his mother, Sam, a hard time all day. Normally he was a well-behaved, rather pleasant child, but with Ashlynn's persuading, he would do as she asked, whether it be right or wrong. He usually always gave into her, as he was trying to be polite and not hurt her feelings.

Brian helped his son onto his lap, so that he was sitting on his other knee, opposite Ashlynn. He'd had to spank the two eight-year-olds, as they'd been more daring and trying this past week - though it was for their stunt today that they'd received this much needed spanking.

Ashlynn sniffled and buried her face back into Brian's chest. She'd just finished recieving her spanking, and was now clingy - she was known to become clingy and tired after a good spanking.

Brian cuddled both bare bottomed children closer to him, though only Ashlynn kept her face hidden in his shirt. He kissed both their heads. "Now, you both know what you guys did today was completely unacceptable and won't be tolerated. You also know you both earned and deserved this spanking - and despite that, I still love you both as much as I did before."

Baylee squirmed slightly, his bottom still extremely sore. He knew his dad was saying that more for Ashlynn's benefit than his. Ashlynn had only been living with Kevin and A.J. for a couple months now, and still wasn't used to being loved - even after she'd made a mistake. He glanced at his best friend - his only best friend that was a girl. He felt bad he hadn't protested more, so that he could have saved both their bottoms from getting a good spanking.

"And though you've both been soundly spanked," Brian continued, pausing a moment to eye them both. "There's still more to your punishment."

Baylee looked up. This was new - normally they were given the whole punishment before the spanking, if the spanking wasn't the only punishment going to be given.

Brian nudged Ashlynn slightly, so she'd look up at him. He looked at her, then his son, as he spoke. "You're going to be writing a little composition. You can write it alone, or together if you'd like, but it still must be written and given to me before Kevin comes to get Ashlynn later. Also, you'll apologize to your teacher for all the trouble you've caused today. Understood?"

Baylee nodded his agreement, as he stared down at his lap. He hadn't meant to drive his mother so crazy this past week, but he'd wanted to make Ashlynn happy. Sad thing was, he couldn't blame her, as he knew he was accountable for his own actions.

Ashlynn nodded slightly, after seeing Baylee nod. She really hadn't meant to get him into any trouble. Lately it seemed all she did was get him spanked. She gave a small whimper, and hid her face back into Brian.

Baylee sat there quietly, letting his dad hug him, though he really just wanted to run up to his room and hide. He didn't like that Ashlynn had not only seen him cry, but be spanked as well. He hadn't been permitted to see her spanked, as after his spanking, he'd been sent to the corner to wait.

"I sorry," Ashlynn whimpered softly.

Brian kissed her head again and hugged her closer to him. "I know you are, Sweetie. And I still love you, like I did before." He tickled her side lightly with the hand he had wrapped around her.

Ashlynn squirmed slightly, and gave a tiny giggle. Brian always made her feel better about a spanking, even though she didn't like them very much. Least he didn't hit as hard as her Daddy did - unless, of course, she bit his leg midst her spanking - then he hit harder than Daddy with that evil paddle.

Brian set both children upon their feet on the floor in front of him. He couldn't help but smile as he watched them both try to rub the fire out of their little backsides. He kissed their heads again as he stood up. "You guys work on your rumps, and I'll go find you some long shirts to wear, alright?"

Both nodded through their stray tears and attempts to rub the pain out of their little rumps. Once Brian had left the room, Ashlynn turned to look at Baylee.

"You mad?" She asked softly, sniffling again.

"Nah," Baylee said, shaking his head. "I should've known better an' stopped yah before we went too far."

Ashlynn gave him a bright smile then, and flung herself at him, hugging him tightly.

Baylee's eyes went big when Ashlynn suddenly hugged him. He was used to hugging her now, and always being hugged - but not when both of them had their pants gone. He cautiously hugged her back, hoping he wouldn't get it trouble for it. He knew the rules about being bare in front of each other, but he wasn't sure Ashlynn knew the rules, as it was only her and Krissy in the Richardson household. And he was quite sure his Uncle Kevin and Uncle A.J. were only bare in their bedroom and not anywhere else in the house.

Brian raised his eyebrows at his son, when he returned to his office, only to find the two interlocked in a hug. "Am I interrupting something?" He couldn't help but ask with a small smile.

Baylee, who could see over Ashlynn's head - she was small for her age - looked up at his father and shrugged.

"Come here Sweetie," Brian said, sitting back down in his chair. "I got you that basketball jersey of mine you like so much."

Ashlynn let go of Baylee and gave Brian a smile. She let him take her shirt off and replace it with his old jersey - she loved his jersey, and always wore it after a spanking at the Littrell household.

Baylee had grabbed up the other shirt his dad had brought down, not wanting to be dressed like a little kid - especially not in front of Ashlynn. Ashlynn was like his five-year-old sister was - she thought the world of him and when scared, would cling to him tightly and not let go. He was still trying to get used to having a girl other than his little sisters cling to him. Sometimes he often wondered if Ashlynn confused him with Sammy, her stuffed bear - she always had that silly old bear with her, unless she was in big trouble and not permitted it during her punishment. It also didn't help that he knew she had a crush on him - he'd heard his parents talking about it one night a while back.

"Can we go now?" Baylee asked quietly, looking at his dad. He was still rubbing his bottom a bit, but not as much as before.

"Yes," Brian answered. "And your mother has agreed to let you two out of your afternoon lessons, to write your composition. You're to write about how you should behave and the perfect spanking."

Both eight-year-olds nodded, then quickly rushed out of the room - after Ashlynn had given Brian a kiss. She'd a crush on him, though he was technically her uncle - but, being adopted, it was okay for her to crush on family members - especially Brian and Baylee.

Baylee led Ashlynn back down to the schoolroom in the basement, where they found his mother - their teacher - sitting behind her desk grading papers. "Mom?" He called out softly, as they neared her desk.

Sam looked up from her work, and couldn't help but smile at the two tear-stained children, now each sporting one of her husband's old shirts. "Yes?"

"We're sorry, Mom," Baylee told her, apologizing for both of them. Ashlynn still didn't like to talk very much, so he usually did most the talking.

Sam looked at Ashlynn. "Are you?"

Ashlynn nodded her head, clinging to Baylee just a little bit.

Sam smiled at them again, and pulled them both into a hug after signalling them closer. "I accept your apologies. And I'm sure Brian gave you both a good spanking for all the trouble you've caused."

Both nodded. They had recieved very good spankings and knew their bottoms would smart for at least the rest of the day.

Sam gave them both a light swat on their bottoms. "Now, set to doing that composition you've been assigned."

They both winced upon feeling the swats - Ashlynn yelping, as she was more sensitive than Baylee was. They grabbed some pencils and a stack of paper, then found a spot on the story rug and lay down to write.

Sam smiled as she watched the two of them. She knew they'd be better behaved for at least the next day. Well, Baylee would more than liklely behave for a few days longer than Ashlynn would - Ashlynn had an A.J. streak in her, that made her like to test the limits often.

A while later, Brian was still sitting in his office - he hadn't had to go to the Church today to work, so he'd been able to stay home and be of service as the principal. His three younger children had been sent off to A.J.'s mother's to play with Krissy - Kevin and A.J.'s youngest. He looked up when he heard a knock at his door. "Come in!"

Baylee and Ashlynn entered the room quietly. "We're done," Baylee spoke for both of them. "Mom said to bring it up to you."

Brian smiled as he took the two sheets of paper from them. "Thank-you. You're free to go play or whatever, provided you stay out of trouble."

"Yes, Sir," Baylee answered quickly, dragging Ashlynn out of the room for a change - usually it was her dragging him.

Brian read the title on the paper and sat back to read what they had written together.

Brian chuckled as he finished reading the composition the two had obviously written together. He'd chuckled throughout reading it, and knew Kevin and A.J. both would have a good laugh over it. He'd known first glance that Baylee had written all of it, but the one line Ashlynn had struggled to put in. He felt proud of his son for helping Ashlynn out - and for admitting a few small things - mostly because he'd know his dad would understand, and that Ashlynn still couldn't read very much. He shook his head, and set the papers down upon his desk as he heard Ashlynn give a delighted shriek.

"DADDY!"

Brian poked his head out of his office, and smiled when he saw that both Kevin and A.J. had come to get Ashlynn - this didn't happen very often, as usually A.J. went to get Krissy, and Kevin came to get Ashlynn.

"Hey guys," he called down the hall. "Come here. You gotta read something."

Kevin and A.J. both nodded, as they set Ashlynn back down and told her she could play with Baylee for a little bit longer.

A little while later, the three ex-Backstreet Boys in Brian's office were chuckling over the composition their eldest children had written, and were quoting it to one another playfully. Though, they had all agreed with the kids, that the best spanking ever was the one you know you ought to get, but never did, because Daddy knows too much.
