Peter's pov
I woke up as I rolled on my back suddenly and felt the heat on my ass.
" Ah." I jumped from my place
" Shh, it's okay!" Cole caught me and held me to his chest minding my butt
" It hurts!" I told him
" I am sorry, baby! Can you let me check?"
" No!" I said as my face matched the shade of my ass
" I have to check, Pete, what if there are cuts or bruises or something?"
" Okay." I said defeated
" I'll be back in a minute." He said as he laid me on my stomach and walked out the room
He came back with an ointment in his hand.
" Make it quick!" I whined
" Sure baby." He removed my jogger and boxers in a swift motion," Alright, it's bright pink. I'll rub some ointment."
" I'll do it myself!" I said
" Stay still!" He pinned me down and rubbed the ointment gently then put back my clothes
I relaxed and felt way better. " Thank you." I muttered
" Minion, what's wrong with you and Eric?" He asked, scouting next to me
" He just acts like he is my brother scolding me telling me what to do and what not to do as if he has authority over me. He should mind his own business. I didn't want his help or advice."
" Wow!" He blinked twice," But Pete he is family. He can advise you and help you that didn't mean he has authority over you, that means he cares. I remember that I advised Eric and Sam before and they both weren't rude to me. His intentions were good."
" You advised them, not scolded them. And I am not like him or Sam, I don't want his help. Just you and Nico or Luca, my brothers in short, can."
" I got that. Don't stop on every word I've said. I scolded them and even spanked Eric when he was younger, Pete. When we are not around Eric and Vincent can take that after us."
" But you guys were there. You were still at home. He should have minded his own business."
" Listen, Pete, he was being like a normal cousin trying to help. Second, Eric would never touch you or be harsh on you. You are being defensive for nothing. "
" Okay, got it. I won't disrespect him again."
" Yeah, please at least for your ass."
I glared at him, " You don't have to threaten me."
" I am not threatening you, baby." He kissed the top of my head," I understand that you don't like someone else other than us to have the authority over you and you like only a few people in your close cercle. I will talk to them and tell them that if there is anything up with you they should tell any of us. Happy?"
" Yeah, thank you."
" But promise me to give them a chance and try to get to know them."
" Okay, I will try."
I don't know why Cole is eager that I know them that much. I just don't like someone to order me around and Eric just did that for no reason and he isn't even one of my brothers or even cares about me. However, I am thankful for Cole at least he will tell them to leave me alone and to not bother me. That's enough for now.
