Family Discipline

chapter 2

Eden POV

We all find our spots in the living room. I can feel Aiden it's a twin thing but I can feel his fear and feel him trembling inside me. I can't explain it. I shoot a glance over to Grayson who is trying to be stoic but see him wipe away a few stray tears and sniffle a little bit.

I'm too drunk and too high right now to wrap my head around what's happening. But if my brothers are already crying and Dad hasn't even spoken with us yet then this is bad.

I'm drawn out of my thoughts when I hear my dad walk in.

"You three front and center. Make it quick I need to get back to work and don't have time to properly deal with you tonight."

Thank God he is letting us go to bed without punishment at least it's being put off a few hours.

"Here's the deal you all know you're in deep shit but I'm too angry and none of you are sober enough to even remember or properly accept what's going to happen. I want you in bed within next twenty minutes. Your mother is well aware of what happened tonight and is on her way home to make sure you all stay in this house and don't sneak off again. I love you now get to bed."

We all look at each other then back at dad and all at once say "Yes Sir" and bolt up the stairs before he has a chance to change his mind.

Grayson POV

That is not how I expected it to go but thankful he put our punishment off for the night. I can sleep comfortably for a few hours anyway. But fuck tomorrow is going to be bad. I strip down to my boxers and go check on everyone else.

Mason is still passed out I walk over and kiss the top of his head and place the blanket he kicked off at some point back over him and pick his phone up off the floor and place it on his night stand before turning the lights out and closing the door.

I go to Aiden and suddenly feel the urge to pull him into a hug. He's never been in this much trouble and he's scared shitless. He's silently crying and trembling. I walk over and sit on his bed and pull him into me. He buries his head into my chest and starts to cry harder.

"Hey it's OK, I mean yeah we are going to be grounded for the rest of our life and won't sit for awhile but that's it. This is all my fault and Dad knows that plus I'm the oldest so worst of it is going to be thrown my way. He could've spanked us tonight and he chose to walk away. He isn't going to do it out of anger. It's been a long night. Try and get some sleep OK. I love you and I'm sorry for getting you into this." I rub comforting circles on his back trying to calm him down. Before I know it he's cried himself to sleep.

I kiss the top of his head and gently lay him down and finish stripping him for bed and place a blanket over him.

I go to Eden's room and lightly knock on her door. "Come in Gray" is all I hear.

"Hey you doing OK? Some night huh?"
I ask and she looks up at me with tear filled eyes.

"Yeah some night. What's Dad going to do to us? I slept with Tanner tonight what have I done? I'm so sorry Grayson I know he's your best friend and everything I didn't mean for it to go that far. It wasn't supposed to happen especially not like that." She breaks down and cries into her hands.

"Eden, look at me this isn't your fault. Tanner knows your off limits he's known that since kindergarten when we became friends. You were drunk and high and he took full advantage of that. I'm not upset with you but I am however furious with Tanner and come Monday he and I are going to have a talk."

I pull Eden close and let her cry it out. "I'm so sorry Gray please forgive me for everything." I kiss the top of her head and and hold her tighter.

"Shh it's going to be OK baby girl try and get some sleep OK. I'm right next door if you need to talk or need anything OK. I love you and goodnight." I get her settled in before I go lay down in my own bed.

I lay on my side facing the window and let out all the tears I've been fighting and holding back for sake of the twins. So much has happened and we are in so much trouble.

I can't help but blame myself for what happened with Tanner and Eden if it wasn't for me she would've never been at that party or in that position to begin with.
