Pippi’s feet shuffled and her fingers played with the hem of her skirt. “From the bathrooms.”

“Which bathrooms?” Cat coaxed.

“All of them?” Pippi smiled awkwardly again.

It was almost painful to watch, but not as painful as it was going to be in a minute when their girl was getting her just desserts.

“All of them.” Sam reiterated.

“Yes?”

“And how… did you sneak the toilet paper from all of the bathrooms?” he continued his questioning.

Cat just sat back and enjoyed the show. She would get her say in soon enough.

“I borrowed a cart from the storage room. It was actually way easier than I was expecting it to be.” Pippi giggled before slapping her hands over her mouth. “I’m sorry.”

“Oh, you’re certainly going to be,” Sam told her.

“That’s what Master Derek said too.” She dropped her chin to her chest.

“Well, from what I can tell, you have broken quite a few rules while you were perpetrating this little prank of yours. Lying, stealing, ignoring curfew, breaking and entering, and making a very, very big mess. Sound like I’ve got it all, Mommy?” Sam asked.

Catherine watched Pippi’s eyes get wider and wider with each mentioned infraction. It was likely about that moment when she really realized how much trouble she had brought on herself.

“I wish I hadda a time machine.” The earlier thought repeated in Pippi’s head, but this time, she realized she’d said it out loud.

“I’m sure you do, but I know I’m speaking for both Mommy and I when I say, we’re glad you don’t.”

Catherine nodded in agreement. This prank was a huge step for Pippi and a catalyst for their dynamic. This one thing held so much weight and importance for their relationship and she was absolutely giddy over it. She knew this punishment wasn’t going to be fun for Pippi, but in the end, they were all going to feel like a million bucks even if one of them felt like a million bucks with a sore bottom.

Why? Why? Why had she thought this was a good idea? How did she not anticipate how much a punishment was going to suck? She hadn’t allowed herself to think, that was how. If she had, she would have chickened out immediately.

Standing there in front of the two people she was falling for in ways she never imagined possible, she couldn’t decide what the best choice was. She didn’t want this punishment, but she also couldn’t live with the unknowns. There were enough unknowns in her life, she needed to take some control over what she could.

“It wasn’t a total lie. I really did wanna sleep with Ellie.”

“I don’t care how much was the truth, if there is a tiny bit in any story that is untrue, then it is a lie,” Mr. Sam said.

“Yes, Sir.”

“What are you supposed to call us for the rest of the day, little one,” Ms. Cat gently reminded her.

Closing her eyes, Pippi tried to imagine herself tucked in her bed back at their house. In that moment, they really had felt like a Mommy and Daddy, but it was so… awkward to call them that.

“Yes, Daddy,” she forced the words out.

“Good girl. Now I know you’re not used to long harsh spankings which is what you deserve for all of this, so this will not be the only spanking you will receive for your prank, do you understand me?” he continued.

Not the only spanking? How many spankings was she going to get for this? When was she going to get more? Her tired and overwhelmed brain couldn’t even compute how many more days she had left on the Ranch. As much as she would have liked to know his complete plan, she didn’t think it was the best time to ask questions.

“Yes, Daddy,” she mumbled.

“For now, I’m going to spank you for breaking curfew and stealing all of the toilet paper, and then you will answer to Mommy for your untruth.”

“What about the mess?” She put her hands out to indicate the room just in case he somehow forgot the entire reason they were there.
