Now that Randy was pushing 17 he had become a super young man. I no longer had any discipline problems with him whatsoever. While I missed the boy I had spanked I realized he was now replaced by a mature young adult in every aspect of the word. I treated him like an equal and we had mutual respect for each other. While I still was his "dad" we were so much alike we were almost lovers. While I couldn't take him into clubs or bars we did everything together. Yes we slept together as well. It just seemed to happen naturelly. On occassion when we were in bed I'd give him a massage and a playful slap on the ass. Recently when I did it he rolled over, looked me square in the face and said, "no way, never again, EVER. I'm a man now. I will not be spanked like a kid no matter what." I looked him in the eye, smiled, kissed him on the lips and said, "your right, the boy is gone. You ARE a man now, my man and I love you! " We kissed and made passionate love that night.
The weather was getting hot. He was finishing his junior year in high school. One evening when I came home I found Randy there with another boy, about 14 yrs old. They were watching tv. The boy seemed scared of me when I saw him. Randy asked if we could talk in private so we went into my room. "Ron, er dad, the boy is named Eddie. He's a runaway. He's actually been going to school for about a week until they caught him today. He ran out when they tried to stop him for questioning." Randy explained how he had befriended Eddie and that the kid had been sleeping in abandoned cars for almost a month. It seems he's been from a broken home. He lived with his mom and stepdad and they didn't care if he lived or died. He was the oldest and his stepdad hated him. His mom had to make a choice between him or her new husband. That's when he ran away. Randy said he'd somehow ended up in our town. He tried to just blend in with the kids at school. I asked Randy what he'd done for food. He said the boy told him he ate whatever he could find. It almost sounded like what my "son" had gone through when he ran away from the group home almost 2 years ago. "I told him we might be able to help him but he's afraid to say anything for fear you'd call the cops. I tried telling him you wouldn't do that but he's still scared."
Just then I heard a crash in the living room. Randy & I headed there to find Eddie had knocked over the tv tray with newsapapers on it. He had a horrorfied look on his face. He was so scared he started to run by me. I grabbed him and said it was ok. Randy too grabbed him and told him to just sit and talk. Tho ill at ease he did sit on the couch with Randy. I sat in the overstuffed chair. Eddie started to tell me the whole story. It seemed his stepdad was abusive. While he didn't necessarily spank the boy he never could just talk with him. He'd yell at him over the slightest thing, ground him if he was a minute late for supper, and when he did hit him it was usually a slap or punch in the face. He repeatedly told him he was a worthless _s_h_i_t_ and was unwanted there. No wonder Eddie ran away. I asked him how long it had been since he'd had a decent meal. He said he couldn't remember. I told him he was welcome to stay and have dinner with us, take a shower, relax and we would try to figure out together what was best for him. He agreed with a little persuasion from Randy. He got cleaned up, and we had dinner together. Wednesday was spaghetti nite and there was plenty to go around. He had a better appetite than my son. He was a young 14 with short dirty blond hair, a ruddy complexion, a few pimples, about 5' 4", and maybe 125 pounds soaking wet. I asked how far he came and he said he had been from Akron, Ohio. I asked how he got to the Boston area and why. He said he knew he had an uncle somewhere on Cape Cod but he didn't know his name or where he lived. He got to the area hitchiking. I asked if he had any problems on the way and he said one guy tried to rape him. He said he was strate and would never let a guy do that to him. At this Randy just looked at me and shrugged his shoulders. His family didn't trust him so they never gave him a key to the house. He felt he had no reason to stay.
I finally dragged a phone number and an address in Akron out of him. I called his mom and stepdad and to my surprise it was true. They didn't care what happened to him. His mom said as far as she was concerned he was dead. I didn't tell Eddie that but asked her to send me a letter allowing me to have custody of the boy. She took my address and said she would send it the next morning. I received the letter in two days by special delivery.
For the time being he moved in with us. I informed him of the cardinal rules of lying, cheating and stealing and what the possible consequences would be. I downplayed the fact of possibly having to spank him as I didn't want to scare him at all. I told him he would be treated as he acted. As a show of trust I gave him a key to the apartment which made him happy. I enrolled him in school in the 8th grade. He and Randy hit it off real well and he was like a younger brother to Randy. In talking with him he insisted he was strate but had no girlfriend. It was decided that he would take over Randy's room and Randy would bunk in with me. I told him if necessary we might have to move to a larger apartment.
Considering all the problems the boy had I gave him a lot of leeway. After a few days he seemed to take advantage of the situation. He'd come in late from school, was late for dinners, and in general was not being accountable for himself. This was unacceptable. I told him that as he was only 14 he was to be accountable for himself and that I needed to know where he was and what he was doing. To this he replied he was old enough to look out for himself and it was not really my business. I told Eddie that if his attitude and disrespect continued he would be punished. For a while things smoothed out.
He was very timid about his body and soon Randy realized he was a late bloomer. When I tried to discuss this with him he became defensive and accused Randy of spying on him. I told him as we were an all male household there was nothing to be ashamed of. I told him he could always talk with me about anything without fear of being put down. He didn't say much to that and continued to be very defensive. Randy said to him he was not trying to hurt him, just trying to be an older brother. Eddie looked at Randy and told him to mind his own business and then went to his room. I could see Randy was hurt by his attiutde but he tried not to show it.
When I got home the next evening the place was a mess. Eddie had brought home a few of his friends and the place was all but trashed. I told him he was responsible for what his friends did in the house and he again tried to blow it off as unimportant. At that I decided to punish him. He was grounded for for a week. But it didn't work. He was not coming in when he was supposed to after school. I then made it 2 weeks and told him he was asking for a spanking if he continued not following the rules. He boldly looked at me and said I wouldn't dare spank him as he was not my own son. Randy then told him of the many times he had been spanked since he had been with me and that he was surprised I had only warned him and hadn't spanked him already. Eddie still refused to believe it could happen. He stormed out of the kitchen and went to his room.
At that Randy and I discussed if a spanking was now appropriate or if he still needed more time to adjust. Randy interceeded on his "brother's" behalf and asked me to give him one more chance before I would spank him. I agreed.
Five days went by once again Eddie broke his being grounded. When I told him I had had it with his refuasl to follow the rules he got mouthy again. That did it! I told him he was now going to get the long threatened spanking before he went to bed that night. If he refused he could hit the road as he had run out of chances and nothing else worked with him. He now realized I was serious and begged me in a little kid style not to do it. He asked Randy to again speak to me on his behalf. He assured him he would be a good boy from now on and begged me thru Randy to give him one more chance. Surprisingly Randy did ask me to give him yet another chance. I was surprised as he knew I had reached the end of my patience with him. I looked at Eddie and told him his chances had run out. I told him he had no other choice and had been warned repeatedly this could happen if he continued not to follow the rules.
We sat in silence and ate dinner. To be honest I was becoming a soft touch as I actually was considering giving him just one more chance. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. It was Jerry Hayes my neighbor. He wanted to know what I had said to Eddie about an attempted car theft. I told him I knew nothing about it. He then said his son told him Eddie had led him on to try to steal a car to joyride. He wanted to be sure I knew. I told him I appreciated his telling me. He left and I turned to Eddie who made up some lame excuse about the car just being unlocked and how they just happened to sit in it. I told him that was it. There was no way he would avoid the spanking and it was to be done now! Again he asked Randy to try to interceed for him. Randy told him that until Mr Hayes' visit he felt he needed one more chance but now no. Randy looked at Eddie and said he deserved a good spanking and it was long overdue.
Eddie looked at me. "Please don't do this to me, PLEASE!!! I'll be a good boy from now on. Just you wait and see" he said. I simply ignored him and turned and talked to Randy. I gave him the car keys and told him to go for a ride and leave me alone with Eddie. He agreed it was best that way that we be left alone.
I cleaned up the dishes to give the boy time to think. I went to the bedroom door, knocked and opened it. He was sitting at his desk doing his homework, trying to ignore what was to come. I told him he was about to be punished. He again pleaded, "please don't, give me just one more chance, please, PLEASE!" He said he was too big now for a spanking. That was for little kids. He was a "big boy" now. I told him that Randy, who was almost three years older got spanked until a few months ago and it was done bareassed! Be then pleaded that any spanking not be done on the bare. I told him it was the only effective way to punish him but if he cooperated I would not use the strap, this time. He started to cry. He said he was abused by his stepdad. I told him he had been given every chance to avoid the spanking, had been given repeated warnings but the attempted car theft was the last straw. I told him that if Randy, at 17 did such a thing he too would get a spanking. I then told him to get his clothes off. He hesitated, pleaded with me but to no avail.Finally he took off his shirt, shoes & socks, and finally his jeans. He was standing there in his underwear. I told him to take them off too and he boldly refused. I grabbed him by the arm and pulled him over my knee and began the spanking. I then grapped the wasteband of his underpants and with one pull took then off him. He hollered "NOOOO" and tried to squirm and get off my lap. I reached around for his _c_o_c_k_ and as I suspected it was small. I grapped on and told him if he didn't calm down right now he'd get it with the strap! I continued to spank him harder and harder. He was pleading with me to stop between fits of crying. I continued the spanking and told him why he was getting the spanking in the first place. I stopped momentarily and told him he could get dressed and leave or take his punishment. He didn't move off my lap. He didn't WANT to leave. I resumed the spanking on his now red 14 yr old ass. I noticed he was getting semi hard. Whatever happened this was a spanking I wanted him to remember for as long as he lived. I told him I would not hesitate to spank him again if I had anymore problems with him.
Suddenly Randy came in. He walked into the bedroom to find Eddie spread eagle over my lap with his ass reddened. The boy was embarrasssed by having his older "brother" see him this way. I asked Randy why he was back so soon. He said "I didn't have any money and the car is almost out of gas." I invited Randy to watch as I was about to finish spanking Eddie. The boy was really balling his eyes out by now. I asked Randy if he wanted to spank Eddie. He said he didn't fell it was his place to discipline his little brother. He knows just how Eddie "feels"! Randy really loved this kid as he asked me "Dad, can you give him a break and stop the spanking now. I think he's learned his lesson this time." I did stop. I rubbed his hot, sore ass and surprisingly so did Randy. I told Eddie to stand up and tell us both why he'd been punished. As he stood up for the first time Randy and I saw him with a hard on and very little pubic hair. He really was a late bloomer. I assured him he was normal, just a little late and nothing to be concerned about. For the first time since he came to live with us he was not ashamed of being naked anymore in front of us.
He was rubbing his sore, red ass. I told him the next time I'd use the strap and it would not be so easy on him. He asssured me he'd be a good boy from now on. I reminded he was still grounded and that he had a full two weeks to go as he had violated it before and I was starting all over again. Randy said he would see to it Eddie stayed out of trouble. I told him that if his "little brother" got into any more trouble that BOTH of them would be punished. Randy looked at me and remined me he was too old. I looked at him and said "if your little brother gets into trouble and you could have stopped it then you are both equally guilty". With that I left the room leaving the two boys alone together.
Randy looked at Eddie and said "If you ever cause me to get into trouble on your account and I have to get spanked again then I'll give you a spanking on top of whatever dad gives us and with the belt!" Eddie, still naked, asssured Randy he would never get his big brother in trouble. Randy said "You better not". With that Randy played with Eddie for the first time. Eddie now realizes he may not be totally straight after all....
The End.
