Dedicated to JonasBrothersStrict. Check out her series Bring Me up! It's amazing. I also dedicated earlier chapters to Krazekikz! Big Girls Dont Cry is awesome!
**************
I stayed crying over on the pillow for a while. Kev and Joe rubbed a lot of lotion on my bottom, then went to comforting me. They didn't try to move me or anything, they just rubbed my back, and let me cry it out.

"Nicky, I'm gonna put your boxers on ok?" Kev asked me. I just nodded. The cloth slid up my legs, and I braced myself for it to come in contact with my bottom. It only did when Kevin returned the waistband to it's place, but other than that it wasn't bad.

"Kevy...I need Daddy." I said quietly.

"I know Nicky, but just give him some space ok?" Kevin said, patting my back.

"No Kevy, I NEED him. I gotta tell him I'm sorry. Please?!" I was begging. I lifted my head to look at him. I could tell he was torn, but when he saw my face that went away.

"We'll send him back," Joey said. The two of them kissed the top of my head, then left the room.

I waited for my dad to walk in. I shouldn't have said that to him. I deserved the strap for the way I spoke to him. I was just being too pig-headed to see that. I know it hurt, but the pain can go away. What I did to my dad can't.

When he finally came in, I could tell that he had been crying lightly. It made me feel even worse. I reached out to him, like I did when I was younger and I wanted him to hold me...which is exactly what I wanted now. For him to hold me.

"Daddy..." I said it in a baby voice, not intentionally. I'm sure I looked and sounded like a todler, but I didn't care. "Daddy, I'm sorry."

I began to cry again. I had no clue that my body had this many tears. My dad wasted no time in sitting on the bed and pulling me onto his lap. Now that it was obvious I wanted him, he was quick to help me. I cried into his chest.

"Shhh...It's okk Nicky...let it out,"he said. That was the first time he had callen me Nicky in years.

"I'm sorry Dad, so sorry," I repeated.

"I know Nick. I had the same reaction to my dad after my first strapping."

I pulled back to look at him in shock. I guess my expression was humorous, because he let out a chuckle.

"Yeah, yeah I know."

"What happened?"

"I defended Cousin Maggie. She was staying over for the summer, and she accidently cussed when she dropped a plate and broke it. Papaw had sent her to the barn to wait for him. I had tried to talk him into going easy on her because she didn't mean it.

He didn't listen, and told me if I didn't stop I would be joining her. Well, I said something else. He grabbed my arms tightly and drug me out to the barn as well. He made me watch. I remember watching him get the strap out, and her fear. I felt horrible because I had failed at helping her.

She got 20. Papaw didn't give me a chance to comfort her. He made me pull down my jeans and underwear. I had to bend over, and I received 35. He was harsh on me because I was a youg man at that age."

I was shocked, but I couldn't help but ask, "How old were you?"

"It was a week before my 15th birthday." He told me. I gasped. He got worse than I had just now, at a younger age and he did something less than what I had.

"H-H-How many w-would I have g-gotten from Papaw?" I asked.

"At least 50." My body tensed. "But I would never give you that many on your first strapping."

I leaned my head on his shoulder, and asked him, "Daddy? Will you sing for us?"

I said us because I heard Joe and Kevin outside the door. Dad chuckled, and said

"Of course. Joseph, Kevin you can come in."

My older brothers opned the door and crawled onto the bed. We listened as our father sang to us. He hadn't in a long time, and we hadn't had this kind of family time in forever. Probably since before we got signed with Hollywood Records.

After he finished and we called Nicole, he was telling me goodnight. Before I slipped into a deep sleep I told him once more,

"I'm sorry Daddy."
