Our Diaries

Chapter2

Hello!

Here is a new chapter! Enjoy!

***********

Aiden scrunched up his face and tried to pull away from the preying fingers that were tickling him. He was aware that Sam his little brother was the one responsible for annoying him. He huffed and opened his blue eyes. He glared at Sam and asked in a huff.

-"why are you annoying me Sam? I am trying to sleep here."

-"it is dinner time and mom send me to get you."

-"and couldn't you do it without putting your fingers on my face?" Aiden complained.

-"then it wouldn't be fun." Sam pouted.

Aiden shook his head at his brother's response and reached over to ruffle the little boy's hair.

-"hey lay off. You ruined my hair." Sam protested while fixing his messy black hair.

Aiden smiled and made a move to sit up on his bed only to wince when his still tender behind brushed against the rough fabric of the covers.

-"are you okay?" Sam asked in concern.

-"yes I am fine, let's just go."

The two boys made their way downstairs and sat on their designed seats at the dinner table. Elena looked towards Aiden and gave him a kind smile.

-"I hope you are hungry sweetie because I am your favourite dishes tonight."

-"of course mommy, I am famished. Thank you so much." Aiden thanked her and started eating.

During dinner time Damon noticed that Aiden wasn't his bubbly self. He didn't even respond to his little brother teasing which was abnormal. Usually the two would get on the nerves of each other until one of their parents threatens them with some form of punishment.

After dinner was over and the boys helped Elena in clearing the table, Damon nodded towards his eldest and motioned for Aiden to follow him. Once both sat on the couch in Damon's office, the latter pulled his son into his lap and looked the boy in the eyes.

-"what's wrong champ?"

-"nothing Daddy." Aiden said with a smile on his face.

-"don't lie to me Aiden." Damon said sternly, apparently his son developed a new habit in lying to him and that needed to end soon. "now, tell me my boy, what's on your mind?" Damon asked gently.

-"you are still angry at me Dad." Aiden stated.

-"what did bring you to that stupid conclusion?" Damon frowned.

-"I don't know, I just feel it." Aiden said sadly with tears gathering already in his deep blue eyes.

-"is it because I gave you a spanking?"

-"no, it is not like that. The spanking hurt me. But I didn't like you disappointed in me." Aiden said innocently.

Damon shook his head and smiled. He hugged his son closer to his chest.

-"look Aiden, I want you to answer a question for me. Can you do it?"

-"yes Daddy."

-"why do you think I spanked you?"

-"because I acted wrong and was so bad that you have to hit me."

Damon grunted in displeasure and moved his son to sit in front of him so they would talk face to face.
