home."
    "Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. I'll have to
get it."
    "There were four or five bags in the back
seat. How many of those are yours?"
    He saw her stiffen, and she didn't answer.
He had a bad feeling more than just the wedding gift she bought was
hers. He asked again, "Alana, how many of the packages are
yours?"
    "Um, the wedding gift, of course."
    "Of course. And how many of the others?"
    "Oh, let me see."
    He gave her plenty of time to answer. When
she didn't, he asked, "Alana, are any of the packages Kelli's?"
    She looked up at him and could practically
see him losing his patience. She admitted, "No."
    "What are in the packages, Alana?" She was
stalling, and he said, "We'll talk about this after dinner
tonight."
    "Does that mean you're going to spank
me?"
    "Well, that depends. You know what your
budget is, you agreed to it. Did anything in those packages go
against your budget?"
    She lowered her head as she quietly
answered, "Yes."
    "Then the answer to your question is yes,
you will be getting spanked tonight."
    To his surprise, she didn't argue. Instead,
after a couple moments of silence she asked, "Do we have to wait
until after dinner? Can't we get it over with beforehand? I'll be
so nervous I won't be able to eat dinner."
    "Maybe anticipating what's going to happen
will help deter you from doing it again."
    She looked almost in a panic as she said,
"John, please don't make me wait that long. I'm starting to feel
sick to my stomach already, just thinking about it, and having to
wait. There's no way I'll be able to eat anything and keep it
down." She literally did look pale as she pleaded one last time,
"Please?"
    "Let me give it some thought, Alana, and
talk to Cal." She nodded and was quiet during the rest of the trip.
John pulled up beside Cal. He said, "You can wait here while I get
your packages and talk to Cal. I'll be back shortly."
    He came back a few minutes later and put
four packages in the back seat. He got back in and went to the next
building down, where Alana's apartment was. Once they were inside
her apartment he put her packages down on her kitchen table, then
closed and locked the door. He led her to the couch in the living
room. "Cal and I are wondering how often you two together are going
to give us sore hands."
    "What do you mean?"
    "The two of you together seem to find a way
to get yourselves into trouble. Then you both end up with a sore
bottom, while we have a sore hand. Is this becoming a trend, the
two of you getting into trouble together?"
    "I don't know. I hope not."
    "Well, it seems you're not the only one
anxious to get it over with before we eat, so they're going to come
over for dinner in roughly an hour. They're going to call before
they come over, though, to be sure you're ready for company. Then
we'll order Chinese."
    He watched as she sighed in relief. He was
going to have to talk to her about that later to see why the
thought of waiting for a punishment would upset her so much. For
right now, though, she was still very new to this whole spanking
idea, so he was glad she wasn't going to have to wait.
    "Okay, let's get to it then," he said,
looking at her again. "Come over here and stand in front of me,
young lady." Just that quick, the relief she'd felt a minute ago
was gone and he watched her tense. To her credit, though, she
paused only momentarily before slowly making her way over to stand
in front of him.
    He looked up at her and caught her eyes and
held them. "Okay, Alana, tell me why you're about to get
spanked."
    She looked at him with pleading eyes,
obviously not wanting to have to put voice to her misdeeds. He
looked at her sternly and asked, "Am I going to have to take you
over my knee first, to get you to answer me, young lady?"
    "No," she quickly answered. "I let Kelli
drink too much wine, and then I was driving us home when she was
drunk. I didn't pull close enough to the stop sign and almost
pulled out in front of someone, and I bought things that weren't on
my
