Chapter 10 Christmas

Pulling onto the highway, she tried to look behind her, but couldn't turn around. She made a face.

"Why can't we get a car that fits all of us?" Penny asked, she was a little upset that everyone couldn't ride together. Holton, Sam, Cody and Noah were in Noah's Truck. While Luke, Austin, Nick and Penny were in Luke's truck.

"We do," Luke said, "But it was acting up, so we aren't driving it until we get it checked out."

"So, where are we going?" She asked after a few seconds. She was looking at the houses that were decorated with lights. Christmas used to make her sad, but this year. Well hopefully Santa knows where she is this time.

"Oklahoma, to one of the Christmas tree farms," Nick told her, "It's about an hour and 30 minutes' drive, so perfect that you got out the time you did."

She smiled. She hadn't rushed the rest but still math sucked in her mind, but she was happy for the help she was getting.

 
It had started to snow a more this week, and Penny loved the snow. After getting some lunch at sonic, Penny was bouncing in her seat looking around at all the lights, her house had Christmas lights on it anyway so even then her room was plenty bright.

 
After a bit She was playing games on her phone and Nick was being an annoying older brother at the moment she glared at him. He kept pulling on her boot trying to take it off sometimes and others just tugging on it to annoy her.

"Nick stop it," she glared hard at him, kicking his hand and ended up kicking Austin's seat

"What is going on," Austin looked back.

"Nothin," Nick tried.

"He keeps trying to pull off my boot."

"Nick leave her alone," Luke said sternly, pulling up to a stop sign, he looked back at them. Nick looked all innocent, and he knew for a fact that when he looked like that he was causing trouble, Luke raised an eyebrow at him.

"I'm just playing with her."

"She doesn't want you pullin on her boot so stop it," he said sternly, "we have an hour to go, behave."

"Yes, sir."

Penny did end up falling asleep after Nick stopped messing with her, she didn't mind long car rides, but she found it soothing with the country music and soft talk from her brothers. Nick was poking her.

"What?" She asked annoyed that he woke her up.

"We are here, wake up."

She looked up, rubbing her eyes and smiled largely at the trees and the lights. It was almost like a winter wonderland. She started to bounce around all excited, there were a lot of trees here, she moved to get her arms out of the car seat restraints. Nick looked at her.

"Penny." Nick tried to warn her, but she was t listening. "Stay in your seat."

As Luke was looking for a spot she unbuckled, getting ready to throw the door open and jump out. Luke had heard the click.

"Penelope Hope, you better have your seatbelt on or young lady my belt is going to find your bottom and you won't be a happy little girl," he warned. She hurried and put it back on and got it just in time that Luke turned off the truck to look at her. She was playing with her hands, not wanting a spanking at all. She had stayed out of trouble for the most part since her first spanking. 

"Alright, rules, Penny no running off, you see one you like let us know. Also if I hear or see you try and get out of your seat again while the truck is in motion again, I will wear you out. It's so dangerous to do that. Doesn't matter if we are just in a parking lot, anything could happen. Understood?"
