Eric was not happy.  He knew that he had done wrong; no – worse than wrong – he knew that he had sinned.  After several sleepless nights he decided that he had to do something although he did not know what.  He though it about it long and hard until he made a decision.  A  friend had told him about a place he admitted his sins and then they were erased from his life record.  He rode his bike downtown to the church and went inside.

The place was empty but Eric saw the booth exactly his friend had explained.  He entered and when he heard someone enter the other side, said the prayer as expected.  Once that was acknowledged, he continued with the protocol he had been told about.  He told of his sin simply but with complete details even adding that he was very sorry.  Logically he knew he had to include everything so that his record would be completely cleared.

Something was said but all Eric understood was "…ten…"

Eric left.  His mind was still confused.  Where could he get the necessary ten to clear his record?  Then it came to him – Vernon.  He was guy that helped coach his team at the Y.  He wasn't really an adult yet he certainly was not a kid as he was in high school.  Two days later, after the team practice, Eric got up the courage to tell Vernon that he needed help.  Later, over some ice cream, they talked.

"I need ten to clear my record, Vernon." he said.  Vernon asked him to explain which Eric did without detailing his sin.

The two went to Vernon's house and in the privacy and quiet of the family room, Eric lowered his jeans and briefs and got over Vernon's lap.  "Please give me ten." he said bravely as he could.

Vernon, only a youth, well knew how boys thought about right and wrong, tests of bravery and strength, of becoming a man and above all honor.  He spanked Eric exactly ten times as hard as he could.  Eric certainly felt each and every one of the spanks but he bit his tongue and held on tightly so as to neither yell nor move like a baby.  When told to get up, he quickly pulled up his pants and then thanked Vernon for his help.

"Any time, Eric, any time you need help just ask me."

Although Eric slept prone that night, he slept well as he was both happy and confident that his record was now clean.

The End
