Double the Trouble, Double the Love [Silvery_Lady]

[Rissa]

Matt and Eli exchanged glances as their mother proclaimed she was 'more than serious' about re-instating the birthday spanking tradition. Eli wasn't as horrified as Matt. He was more... annoyed. The elder twin let out a sigh of defeat and shrugged as he was called out to go first. Usually, Matt would be the first punished if they were in trouble, since he reacted most strongly to her anger... But, clearly, their mother was far from angry and seemed to be enjoying herself and enjoying their reactions. In all truthfulness, he'd rather get a play spanking than a disciplinary one. Both twins could tell the difference VERY clearly throughout the years they'd lived with the woman as her sons. Matt gave a bit of a child-like pout as he was called out for being dramatic. One that he didn't realize could give her more of a laugh and reason to play spank him, as it was the same pout he put on when he and Eli were kids. Eli noticed Matt's expression with a smirk. "I'd be careful with the smirk, little bro. Looks exactly like the one you used to make when we were kids." Eli mused, practically throwing his twin under the bus since he knew their mother would notice. That is, if she hadn't already... "S-shut up.. I was not!" Matt stuttered out awkwardly, trying to keep his face from turning any redder, as it was already obvious Eli was right. Eli just gave his twin a knowing smirk, eventually prompting the more awkward yet fiery twin to let a snort-laugh loose. "Fine, ya caught me. Do YOU want some kind of award for that, Eli?" Matt smirked as Eli was beckoned over to their mother to go first.

Eli paused beside the woman for a moment. "You really enjoy this, don't you? I can tell you're loving every one of Matt's reactions to the tradition being renewed." He smirked a bit. "I can guess you're probably looking forward to your birthday, or our next one so you can bring the tradition twice. After all, what are we to say if you wanted to do this on your birthday~?" Matt shot his twin a look, but Eli shrugged as he went over her lap willingly, giving a smirk to Matt. "What? Mom clearly enjoys teasing us. It's fun for her... Why only be able to do it once a year?" He chuckled as Matt turned red in the face again.

"...I guess so. Her birthday is important to us... I suppose we could try to suffer through another tradition for her~" Matt gave their mom a goofy grin. "Of course, mom would have to give the good to go on that, since it would be a new tradition..."

Eli smirked a bit, betting that their mom was enjoying every second of their back and forth, and would give that amused smirk she always gave them when they were goofballs and most likely would jump at the opportunity to give them a birthday spanking on her birthday. Matt was snickering a bit at the thought of putting a little bow on the seat of their jeans when her birthday came around and teasing her.

[Silvery_Lady]

Eleonor couldn't push back a laughter when she noticed the way Matt was pouting, since he was absolutely adorable.
He was taller than her and he was almost a man, it was true, but with that expression on his face, he was looking just like when he was a little kid and she was scolding him for something.

-Oh, you can't even imagine how much i'm enjoying this.- she then responded to Eli, while the boy seemed to surrender to the inevitable, walking toward her and draping himself over her lap willingly, after a moment -And be careful with your ideas, i could seriously decide to spank your butts on my birthday too.- she added right after.

Once the teen was in position, his bottom now the tallest part of him body, covered by his stretch pants, their mother gave him a couple of light pats on his backside with the palm of her hand, just to drove his attention there.

-Well, ready?- she asked, cheerfully -I want you to count the smacks.- she then added, before lifting up her arm, ready to strike.

A second later, the adult's hand went down on Eli's butt, not strong enough to hurt him, but enough to make him feel her palm against his buttocks.
She started to "spank" him slowly, alternating the smacks on both sides and giving him time to count until 18.

Then, there would be one extra spank "to grow on", of course.

[Rissa]

Eli smirked at their mother's comment to be careful with their ideas. "Oh, don't worry. We know~" He teased back to her, but a little 'eep!' of surprise to the slight pats to his rear, as he hadn't expected them. Matt choked back a snort laugh as he heard his brother's reaction to the few pats to bring his attention to his butt, a little chuckle leaving him as their mother wanted Eli to count the smacks, his brother playing along as he counted each of the 18 a little awkwardly. He knew the last smack was a spank 'to grow on', and was her favorite, as sometimes she'd add a bit more force to surprise them. Matt looked on, feeling a bit awkward when he realized he'd be next...

[Silvery_Lady]

The woman took her time to deliver that playful spanking to Eli, noticing the slight awkwardness in his voice as he was counting the smacks on his butt, but in her opinion it wasn't a big deal.
She was playing around a bit with them, after all.

Anyway, once she had lightly slapped his backside for eighteen times, it was time for the final smack and, like she used to do when they were younger, she put a bit more energy in that one.
To be honest, the last one was actually a real spank, sharp and exactly in the middle of his bottom.

-And one to grow on.- she said the ritual sentence, with a giggle, before allowing him to stand up.

-Come on, Eli. Off you go, to bed.- she ordered him -No more stretching for tonight.- she added, before turning to look at the other teen -As for you, time to stick out that butt too, young man.- she instructed him, wanting him over her knees -It's your turn.-

[Rissa]

Eli was caught off-guard by the actual real spank, as he had forgotten that was part of the tradition and gave a little yip, smiling a little sheepishly as he was let up, smirking and laughing a bit as he was sent to his bed and told no more stretching exercises for the night. "Alright, alright.. Night, mom." He gave Matt a devilish smirk. "Your turn, little brother. Enjoy, mom~" He gestured for Matt to move to their mother, amused to see his once snickering and laughing twin about to have his bottom 'birthday spanked'. Chuckling a bit as he got into the upper bunk of his bunk, since his bed was a bunkbed with an office underneath since when they had grown a bit, Matt moved his bed from underneath the bunkbed set and Eli decided to use the open space to put a desk and his laptop along with a small bookshelf and some of his manga. He barely needed to climb up the ladder before he swung up over the side and rested against his pillow, facing his soon-to-be birthday spanked twin awkwardly moving closer to their mother with a slightly amused expression on his face.

Matt had scooted close enough for their mother to grab him, since he had a bit more trouble with the 'over my knees' order, often when in trouble, and would have to be pulled over her lap for actual disciplinary punishment. He seemed to be having a bit of trouble, but moved over her lap as well, albeit a little slower. He glanced to Eli and saw his twin smirking at him. "What're you looking at?"

"My twin brother being a baby about a birthday spanking." Eli replied simply with a laugh. "I know you don't like being in trouble, but this isn't trouble spanking. I'd have had a different reaction entirely if it had been. We both would. And you know that we wouldn't hear mom giggling if we were in trouble..."

Matt sighed, grumbling that he was being made fun of, despite having been snickering at his twin's similar position moments earlier. Looking back behind him, at their mom, he saw the amused look on her face and shrugged with a slight smirk. "I guess you're right." He replied, although he counted just as awkwardly as Eli up until 18 swats and gave a bit of a yelp himself, at the actual spank to 'grow on', before he was let up, having started laughing a bit. Eli smirked at his twin as he rolled onto his back to stare at their ceiling, calling out to say: "TOLD you. You're always so dramatic." He teased as Matt rolled over back onto his bed, giving their mom a smirk and dropping his head back onto his pillow, setting his magazine on the nightstand for the morning. "Lemme guess.... No more magazines tonight?" He asked with a slight goofy grin.

[Silvery_Lady]

Eleonor smiled noticing how slowly Matt was taking his place over her lap.
-You're such a drama queen, sometimes.- she mocked him a bit, stretching out a hand to ruffle his hair -Now count like a good boy.- she then added, with another giggle, before lifting her hand.

His birthday spanking started right after and, just like she had done with Eli, the woman gave him 18 light smacks on his bottom, covered only by his underwear, giving him time to count between one "stroke" and the other.
Then the actual spank arrived, the last one, that made his buttocks bounce a little, exactly like Eli's.
-And one to grow on.- she said for the second time that night, before allowing to her other son to roll back on his bed, while she was standing up.

-Of course.- she confirmed his guessing about his magazine, when Matt kinda "asked" if he was about to be sent to bed too -It's time to sleep, you couple of rascals.- she then added, joking, before bending over to lay a sweet kiss on Matt's forehead -Goodnight.-

Right after, she went to Eli's bunkbed and she made him lean a bit over the edge of the mattress, so she could give him a quick kiss too.
-Sleep well, boys. And once more, happy birthday.- she concluded, heading for the door and leaving the room, after turning off the ligth -See you in the morning.-

-------------------------------------------------
A couple of days after
-------------------------------------------------

That saturday evening, Eleonor was driving home way earlier that she had expected.
She was supposed to have a very long meeting with the parents of her students that afternoon and then she had agreed to see her sister to dine together in a restaurant on the other side of the city, but everything had gone wrong.
Two of the parents never showed up at the meeting, so she had left school one hour earlied than she had planned and then her sister had called her to cancel the appoinment, once she was already almost at the restaurant, because she had a problem at work... so the result was that now the woman was going back home in time for dinner, instead of staying out late like she had planned.

She had stopped at the groceries store to buy the ingredients to bake a nice birthday cake with the boys on the way back and now, while parking on her driveway, she wondering if she could be classified like a "poor parent" if she would let them dine with milk and cake, for once.

So, the adult took off the keys from her bag and she opened the front door a minute after, walking inside with a paper bag full of food in her hands... and she immediately smelled the alcohol in the air.
Laughters and giggles could be heard coming from the next room and she could recognize not only her sons' voices but also the voices of a few of her other students.

She frowned and she went to the living room right away, to check on the situation.
-Kids, what's going on?- she asked out loud, entering the room...

[Rissa]

The twins had a secret party planned when they found out that their mom would be out til late that evening, thinking they'd be able to get away with it since she'd be gone for the afternoon and planned the party for then. They had five friends over. Two of whom were their neighbourhood friends. The three from school brought beer, which the twins were far too curious about trying since they'd been told so many times not to drink alcohol, but after a sip or two, they discovered they liked it and a couple sips turned into a couple cans... Which then in turn turned into a pair of very tipsy and drunk twins and laughter over the neighbourhood friends worrying about their parents catching them and the twins teasing them as they obliviously joked about how doomed they'd be if their mom caught them, not having heard her entry to the house. They only realized something might be wrong when their classmates bolted in differing directions and laughed a bit, thinking they were just scared of their mom.

But then they saw something that would have usually caused them to panic and hide like they usually would when they knew they were doomed to have their butts spanked a new shade of red. Their mother was standing in the doorway! However, as the two neighbourhood friends froze, they were a bit too tipsy to realize trouble was about to hit their butts full force. Matt was a bit more aware they were in trouble, but his drunken demeanor had him elbow Eli and speak in a bit of a slurred voice, killing any doubt that they hadn't consumed alcohol themselves. "Oh, shit man... Mom'sss home earlyyy..." He said out loud, thinking he'd thought it to himself. Eli laughed, nearly falling off of the couch arm as he held uphis drink. "Jussst offer herrr some, duuude... It's some good shtuff..." Eli replied, looking to their friends as the classmates stared for two moments before bolting. "What'sss their..." *HIC* "deal?"

A few moments later, the twins realized why their friends had bolted, seeing the look on their mother's face. From the way they were looking to the door, it was obvious the twins were about to try to bolt for escape from the trouble they now realized they were in, as well. But they weren't fast enough with their tipsiness making their focus hazy. They looked like two deer caught in the headlights at this point. "...Shit." They muttered at the same time as they noticed she had started towards them.

[Silvery_Lady]

The very second Eleonor entered the living room, she understood what was happening: she saw the beer cans on the coffee table and one in Eli's hand, she saw the other kids darting away and running to the back door in the kitchen and she recognized them all, and of course she understood that both her sons were completely drunk.

Despite all the times she had told them to stay away from alcohol, those two brats had decided to drink enough beer to get drunk... and inside their home!

-I will call your parents in the morning!- she shouted at the teens that were running away, just to warn them that there would be consequences for that "party", before focusing on Matt and Eli once more.

She frowned even deeply, putting down the bag with the groceries and starting to walk toward them; both boys were now staring at her like scared puppies, with wide eyes, clearly unable to escape due to their drunkenness, so their mother reched them after a moment, toweing over them since they were still sitting on the couch.
She put both her hands on her hips, in her most common "scolding pose", looking down at them like if she was ready to chew them up and spit out the bones.

-You can't even imagine how deeply in trouble you are now.- she growled at them -You don't have permission to drink and you know it perfectly. You tried to fool me and i promise that you will pay for this.- she promised them, before taking a deep breath, noticing how intoxicated they were by all the beer they had been drinking.
They weren't used to that and it was clear.

-Now stand up and go straight to bed.- was the next order -No dinner for you tonight. And tomorrow morning i'll give you a good lesson in obedience, you can bet on it. SCOOT!- she ordered to them.

She was sending them to bed without supper as a punishments, that was sure, but she also wanted them to rest and to sleep, so they would feel better the day after.
Their mother was angry and disappointed, but she was also worried.

[Rissa]

The twins stiffened out of reflex to the fury in their mother's voice, both seeing the trouble but not able to think of anything but fleeing from her as she reached them, feeling like little kids as she stood over them, Matt visibly cringing in reaction to her infuriated tone as she expressed they'd be in a lot of trouble the next morning, and she'd give them 'a good lesson in obedience'. Eli was a bit tipsier, but still sensed some of the trouble they were in... As their mother yell-ordered them to scoot, the twins scrambled past her and to their room, not wanting to deal with being punished twice if they stayed in their seats, Eli quickly shutting the door after them so she wouldn't slam it closed for them.

Eli crashed asleep nearly right away, Matt following suit soon after, but not sleeping well and waking up the next morning at 6AM to the realization of what they had done and what they were in for on this morning... Eli hadn't woken yet, so Matt was stuck in his own thoughts and worries of the certain doom that awaited him, already kicking himself internally for pissing off their mother so much, not thinking how Eli would react, but worrying more on how she would. She had seemed in a fury the night before, but they had broken the biggest rule she had other than reacting with fights, disrespect and disobedience... 'She's going to KILL us. No... That would be TOO quick... More like she's going to take away any possibility of being able to sit for the next year til our next birthday...' The teen thought worriedly, already dreading facing her, as he knew he'd be the first one spanked since he had a habit of trying to run and hide from her when she was really angry. He never succeeded in running from her, as she was faster and stronger than he was... Which made their situation FAR more frightening to him. As he worried and panicked internally, he noticed Eli put his hand to his head and tried to get his attention without speaking loudly enough to let their mother hear them. "Pssst..." He started to whisper, prompting Eli to sit up slowly and silently, looking over towards him. "Dude, we're so screwed..." He whispered. "I don't think we could have done anything stupider..."

Eli stifled a groan from his headache, but looked to his twin, nodding as he looked a bit frightened of their soon-to-be doomed backsides. He was more upset that now instead of being proud of them for being her sons, now she held fury that would soon be visible and extremely painful for their backsides. "I feel bad too... She had been so proud of us and now she's pissed off beyond all belief. Gods, why did it make sense to drink like that yesterday?"

Matt shivered a bit when his twin whispered about their mother being 'pissed off beyond all belief'. The teens had only seen her angrier than this ONCE. And it was a level they'd never wanted to see again... Suddenly they both heard the floorboards squeak and their hearts skipped a beat. "Shit..." They muttered almost completely silently, hoping she hadn't heard them talking and worrying about what they were about to face and had come up to get them for their promised punishment.

[Silvery_Lady]

Even if her sons didn't know it, their mother had already woke up and she was perfectly aware of the fact that they were awake.

Eleonor had walked past their bedroom a little while before and she had heard someone whispering inside; she had felt the urge to open up the door and storm inside to paint their bottoms of a new shade of red, but after a moment she had forced herself to keep calm and she had decided to go on like she had planned the night before.
So she walked away, going toward the stairs and reaching the ground floor, heading for the kitchen, allowing them to stay hidden in their room a little longer, worrying about their upcoming fate; it was part of the punishment, after all.

But, more or less fifteen minutes later, Eleonor decided that it was time for them to face the consequences of their own stupidity and she took a deep breath, while standing at the bottom of the stairs.
-ELIJAH, MATTHEW!- she called, loud enough for them to hear her, and using their full names... something that was NOT a good sign -I know that you're awake. Take your butts to the kitchen while you still can sit down and have some breakfast. NOW!- she concluded, before going back to the kitchen, to wait for the boys.

Once there, she stood next the window, looking outside and slowly starting to sip from her mug full of coffee.

On the table, two glasses of water with an aspirin were ready for them, since she was sure that they would need something to help them to face the hungover, along with their usual breakfast.
She was a parent and, even when mad at them, she wanted them to feel better and she was worrying about their health.

And so, she waited, like a pissed off cat ambushing a couple of mice.
