Teen Trials

Halloween Fun

"Are you excited to be going home?" Hunter asked over breakfast.

It had been a LONG three weeks, adjusting to the new rules, but she liked having people around. She hadn't been spanked again but had gotten a several swats here and there most days. Emma shrugged at that.

"Give a verbal answer please." Amy instructed from the kitchen where she was making Emma's snack bag.

It looked like she was making snacks for all of her grade with how much food was on the counter. "A little. I guess. I'm excited to see my brothers."

Hunter nodded at that. "I know that your parents said that it was okay to go to the party tonight, but I'm not sure it's the best idea, Ems."

She tried not to roll her eyes and took another bite of her protein pancake in an effort not to let her mouth run away with her. "I think the important part of that sentence is that my parents said I could go."

"They did, baby," Amy agreed, walking over with her own plate of pancakes and fruit.

"And you said that there are different rules at different houses."

"We may have misspoken on that one." Hunter said.

"That's not fair."

"Listen, Ems," Amy reached out for the girl's hand. "Things like curfew and betimes, can be decided by house, and obviously we can't be all over your homework when you are at your parents house, but I will be checking in on Tuesdays and Thursdays at work, but some things are just blanket life rules, that will result in consequences here."

Emma pulled her hand away, "Yeah, like I said unfair."

"Tone." Hunter scolded.

"Sorry sir."

"Thank you."

"What things will you still punish me for?" Emma asked, trying to keep the sulk out of her voice.

"Three things..."

"Great."

"Watch. Your. Tone."

"If you get in a note home from your teacher, we will step in." Amy picked up before Hunter could get too upset.

"But not for just like missing work?"

"Are you planning on not turning in your work already?"

Emma blushed at that. "No."

"Stop picking at your food and eat it, Ems." Hunter scolded. She picked up her fork again and took a big bite. Hunter shook his head but continued. "Your grades better be a B or above when your feet cross that threshold in three weeks, but we aren't going to flip out over individual assignments, no. If they email that you are getting mouthy though, we will have something to say about it. Are we understood on point one?"

"Yes sir."

"Two...if we ever have to pick you up from a police station, spanking." Amy said simply.

"What if they drop me off instead of have you come down?" Emma sassed.

Hunter sighed; he scooted his chair away from the table. "Come here, please."

Emma straightened up at that. "I'm sorry. I won't sass anymore." She looked over to Amy for help.

"Go on, baby, listen to H."

"To delay is to disobey, Emma Charlotte. Come. Here." he said again. He paused a moment, but she still didn't move. "If you come here now, you're going to get ten swats over your skirt. If I have to ask you again, it will be ten swats with the spoon bare."
