Niall had finished putting the groceries away and was sitting back on the couch when he saw Liam come down the stairs and go to the corner beside the tv naked from the waist down and sniffling. Niall felt a pang of guilt hit him as soon as he saw Liam. The longer Niall sat there looking at Liam's red bum in the corner the worse he felt but he couldn't look away. After 20 minutes he couldn't take it anymore.
'I can't do this anymore.' Niall thought to himself. 'I'm going to get a horrible spanking but I've got to come clean.' He sighed and then stood up and walked across the room to the other couch where both Zayn and Louis were sitting. Once he was standing in front of them, he gulped and then said with a shaky voice "Zee, L-Lou?" They both looked up at him.
"Yeah, Ni?" Louis asked.
Niall took a deep breath and then whispered "Liam didn't do it."
"You're going to have to speak up Niall."
Niall took another deep breath fidgeting with his hands in front of him. Then he looked up and spoke in a normal voice "I said, Liam didn't do it. I did."
"Excuse me, what did you just say Niall James?!" Zayn half screamed.
"I did it." Niall repeated weakly looking back towards the floor.
"I knew it!" Zayn spat out.
"Liam, you can come out of the corner now. Niall, go take his place while Zayn and I talk." Louis said.
"Yes sir." Niall replied and quickly went and stuck his nose in the corner. Liam had come to stand beside Louis still sniffling with his pants still around his ankles.
"Let's pull these up now, huh?" Louis asked bending down to pull Liam's pants and boxers back up where they belong.
"Zee... Lou?" Liam asked.
"Yes Liam?" They both asked.
"Please don't go too hard on Niall. And it wasn't his idea to lie about who did it. It was mine." Liam said sadly.
"Why Liam?" Zayn asked.
"I saw how scared Niall got when he heard you scream at him and he was about to cry already and I couldn't take it... I had to calm him down and protect him. I can't stand seeing him cry." Liam responded sadly. Louis pulled Liam into a hug.
"I know buddy but when he does something he knows is wrong then you have to let him face the consequences of that choice." Liam nodded in response.
"You can have your phone and laptop back after Niall's punishment because I think the spanking and corner time are enough punishment for lying to us this time since your heart was in the right place." Zayn said.
"Thanks Zayn. Sorry for lying!" Liam replied.
"Alright Niall, Come here." Zayn said calmly. Niall Walked back over with his head down.
"Let's get this over with. You're going to get the same punishment we had given Liam. Zayn is going to spank you-- 60 bare, you're grounded for a week, and 30 minutes corner time after your spanking." Louis said.
"Yes sir." Niall said already reaching to pull his jeans and boxers down not wanting to delay it any longer because the guilt was really getting to him. Zayn saw what the boy was doing and quickly sat down so that Niall could lay over his lap. Niall did so immediately and Zayn didn't waste any time landing hard spanks on his behind. Niall cried quietly but didn't fight or squirm. When he was finished, Zayn pulled Niall up into a hug.
"I'm so proud of how well you took your spanking Ni. Almost done, just head over to the corner for 30 minutes and then bring Louis your phone and computer." Niall did as he was told without protest and then as soon as it was over went to both apologize to Liam and thank him for at least trying to take the blame.
