Diapers and Little Girls
Helen and Rose.
Bobby (Helen's son) and Jeff (Rose's son);
Jennifer, Bobby and Jeff's neighbor.
Helen was beside herself. It was guilt mostly. Guilt that she would
have to leave her son alone at home, sick. More importantly she felt
bad for his embarrassment over wetting his bed the night before. Poor
thing, she thought. He hadn't wet his bed since he was a toddler. He
didn't have a fever, but he said his stomach was upset. Could be a
virus that was going around she mused. Then she realized there was
always a virus going around.
Helen worried over that virus, if it was a virus, as she picked up the
phone. She was running late already and wanted to give her secretary a
heads up that she'd be in soon. Helen paused for that second it always
took to get a dial tone. She waited those seconds before punching in
the two digit code to speed dial the number for her office.
Helen's finger hovered over the numbers just as she heard her son's
voice.
Odd she thought hearing Bobby's voice and more odd he was in a much
chipper tone than he'd used on her not ten minutes ago as he said,
"Hey!"
Helen listened intently, silently, curiously when she suddenly heard
Jeff's voice as he asked, "So, did it work?"
"Like a charm! Oh man you would have thought I'd spilled my guts on my
bed. Mom was shocked and then she got all motherly like she didn't
want me to feel bad that I'd wet. It was so amazing. Dude, you were
right," Bobby said.
"Told you it would work! My mom made me stay home again today.
Listen, I figure we can maybe even stretch this to the weekend.
Anyway, is your mom gone yet? I've got the web address for that game
chat room and, get this, the guy that wrote Tombs is going to be
answering questions real time at nine this morning! Did you get my
email?" Jeff asked excitedly.
"Got it. This is so cool! My mom's making her lunch right now. I
figure she'll be gone in another five, maybe ten minutes. Soon as she
leaves I'll log on. Man is this wild or what?" Bobby asked.
"Best day of my life. OK, I'm going on-line right after I hang up. My
moms already gone. You got the chat room address, so I'll meet you in
there with the Tombs author," Jeff said and then laughed as he added,
"I'm logging on as homealone1, you come on as homealone2."
"Right on," Bobby said hanging up the phone happily.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen.....
Helen's heart was racing! She was furious! Helen, in her fury paused
a second more before hanging up the phone she held so she didn't risk
bobby hearing the click. A moment later she picked up her cell phone
punching in her two digit code for the office. The phone began ringing
at the other end.
Helen told Susan, her secretary, she'd be in later that day. A family
emergency was going to keep her home for the morning. Nothing serious
she noted, but she wouldn't be in till much later. She thanked Susan
for her concern, hung up and walked to the bottom of the steps and
looked up.
Helen took a breath to calm herself just before she hollered, "Bobby,
honey, I'm leaving now. I'll call you in a couple of hours. Are you
sure you're going to be OK by yourself?"
"It's OK mom. Really. I'm just going to stay in bed," Bobby said
letting his voice sound strained again. He smiled.
Helen smiled as well but her smile would have given Bobby goose bumps
had he seen it. Luckily Bobby didn't see his mother's smile as she
said, "I'll call you from the office. If you need me before then use
my cell number."
"OK mom," Bobby said as stood looking out the window.
Helen had a plan. All Helen needed to do now was get a hold of Jeff's
mother Rose. She drove to the end of the block, turned out of sight of
the house and parked the car, but leaving the engine running before
reaching for her cell phone once more. She dialed Rose's number.
"Hello," Rose answered.
"Rose! Hi, it's me, Helen," Helen said.
"Hi Helen! How are you?" Rose asked.
"I'm fine! Listen, we've got to meet for a bit. It's about our boys,"
Helen noted.
"Jeff is sick," Rose said.
"Actually, I know that. As it happens Helen, so is Bobby. Listen, I
don't mean to pry, but did Jeff wet his bed last night?" Helen asked.
"Why yes, yes he did," Rose said and asked in a slightly cautious tone.
"But how did you know that?"
"I'll explain in a minute. Did he by chance wet his bed the night
before?" Helen asked.
"Yes? Yes he did. Now how can you know that?" Rose asked.
"Well, it might interest you to know that Bobby also wet his bed last
night," Helen said.
"What? You're kidding? That's odd. Good heavens, do you think it's
something infectious?" Rose asked.
"Actually no. In fact, Rose, I've just discovered accidentally that
we're being had," Helen said feeling her anger well up again.
"What?" Rose said in a shocked voice and added, "Had? How can that be?
Why?"
"I'll explain how I know this over coffee if you've got time," Helen
said.
"OK. Tell you what, I'll meet you at Cindy's, love her Coffee Cake,"
Rose said and added, "And don't worry, I'll make the time."
"Cindy's works for me and you're right about her coffee cake. I'm
getting on the Parkway right now. I should be there in five minutes,
if you want grab a table and put two sugars in my coffee. Oh, and let's
split that coffee cake. I don't dare eat a whole one," Helen said.
"See you in a bit," Rose said.
"You bet," Helen said closing her cell phone before easing back into
traffic.
Helen met Rose at the coffee shop as planned and took the extra plate
with half the coffee cake Rose had picked up along with the two cups of
coffee. Rose was curious on how she knew that Jeff wet his bed night
before last and last night.
"What do I owe you?" Helen asked.
"You get the next one," Rose said as they settled by the window.
Helen leaned in so she could whisper and said, "Rose, your son Jeff wet
his bed on purpose. My son Bobby wet his bed this morning, also on
purpose. Believe it or not, they did it to stay home from school
today. Evidently they are both home to attend some sort of on-line
Internet conference along with some guy that wrote some kind of game."
"This is insane," Rose said.
"Tell me about it," Helen added as she blew over her coffee cup.
There was a look of shock on Rose's face not too unlike the one that
had been on Helen's when she'd hung up that phone. Same angry response
after that as she sat there for a few moments before she said, "Well,
he's going to wish he really was sick when I'm through with him!"
Rose was going home as soon as she left there and Jeff, she promised
through clinched teeth, would be going to school. He may not be able
to sit but he was going to school nonetheless. Grounding was going to
be the least of his punishment. That, Rose said between an angry set
of her teeth, was a given!
"Or, if we plan this right, we can teach them both a very valuable
lesson," Helen said.
"A lesson? OK, I'm all ears," Rose said. It was that mischievous look
on Helen's face that made her pause.
"Concerned mothers! That's what we need to be at the moment. Not
angry, but very worried and very concerned mothers," Helen said and
added, "In fact, we've got to be extremely concerned mothers and be
that way while teaching our sons an object lesson they are not soon
going to forget!"
"Helen, they've lied to us! My son lied to me. I'm shocked. I mean
think about it he actually laid in that damn bed of his and wet it just
so he could stay home today. Last thing he's going to see is my
concerned mother side," Rose said.
"I know. Bobby did the same thing to me, so trust me when I say I
understand! But you didn't let me finish! I said we must become
concerned mothers. In fact Rose, we are so concerned over their little
problem that I was going to add diapers to this plan I'm proposing,"
Helen said.
The word diapers caught Rose completely off guard.
"What?" Rose asked and added, "You did just say diapers?"
"I did say diapers Rose! OK, now think about this for a second! So
our sons have wet their beds. They also knew it would be so
remarkably unique and so surprising that we'd be concerned right?"
Helen asked.
"Right. Trouble is I was," Rose noted.
"Me too. It's been years since Bobby has had that sort of accident.
So they played us. They knew we would be so surprised that we'd easily
believe whatever came next. OK, so what if we really do believe them,
or at least make them think that we believe them. What if we're very
concerned?" Helen asked.
"OK, so we're very concerned. So how does concern translate to
diapers?" Rose asked curiously.
"It goes something like: I was so concerned that I called you and then
we both got even more worried since both of our boys seem to have the
same symptoms. OK so far?" Helen asked.
"Very OK so far," Rose noted.
"We are so concerned that we actually called and talked with a doctor
together - this very morning. We talked with a doctor and low and
behold, that doctor told us about this odd kind of virus that's running
around at the moment. A virus that has the same symptoms our boys
have," Helen said.
"What kind of virus?" Rose asked.
"I'm not sure but I'm guessing it's some kind of intestinal virus that
may very well lead to a bladder infection or something like that.
Whatever that virus is, one of the symptoms is bed wetting. Anyway,
that virus is most likely what made them wet their beds and since they
both hang together, it's also more than likely why both got sick at
nearly the same time," Helen said.
"Go on, I'm beginning to like this," Rose said.
"Me too. Anyway, so they've most likely have got this virus.
According to the doctor, it's nothing too serious, this virus, but it's
definitely going to last for a few days. Let's say till Sunday or even
till Monday morning perhaps but at least till Sunday. Today is
Thursday! That leaves us most of today, Friday, Saturday and then, if
we want, even Sunday. Now imagine our sons wearing diapers that whole
time. Then imagine them discovering at the end of this weekend that
they've been had. Think that might make them regret lying to us?" Helen
asked.
"But if their diapers stay dry, how are we going to push them all the
way to Sunday?" Rose asked and added, "What's to stop them from saying
they feel better all of a sudden?"
"That's the beauty of this honey. Don't you see? They've got to wet
their diapers. They have to keep up this act of theirs because it's
going to be too risky not to," Helen noted with satisfaction and added,
"Get it?"
"I get it," Rose said.
"So what do you think?" Helen asked.
"Are you kidding? I love it! I know for sure that Jeff will be beside
himself over the prospect of wearing a diaper," Rose said.
"Even better, a baby's diaper," Helen noted with a widening grin.
"A baby's diaper?" Rose asked looking curiously at Helen.
"Honey, those two are as skinny as bean poles. They can easily fit
into the toddler diapers," Helen noted and added, "I was online just
after I pulled into the parking lot, and believe it or not, a pampers
size seven will fit a waist size two inches larger than Bobby's and
Bobby is an inch bigger than Jeff."
"You're right. Not to mention those cute little designs as well and
single tapes. I'd love to see him running around the house with a
diaper on," Rose said.
"Exactly. I want so badly to see my little man looking just like that
toddler in that Pampers Cruisers commercial," Helen added with almost a
sigh.
"You know, I'm trying to imagine Jeff's face when he gets to see what
he's going to be wearing," Rose noted laughing and relaxing for the
first time since Helen revealed what had happened.
"Can you break away from work for a little shopping?" Helen asked.
"Definitely," Rose said.
"Good! So in about an hour, or so, we can be back home and five
minutes after that we can have our boys tapped into a nice thick
disposable diaper," Helen said before adding, "With enough diapers to
keep them diapered for the entire weekend."
"Actually, I like it all, but what if we take it a step further?" Rose
said.
"How's that?" Helen asked.
"I'm thinking it might even be better if we expanded this to a kind of
maximum diapering," Rose said and added, "Especially given their
sizes."
"Maximum diapering? Yes, I'm interested," Helen said.
"Why just disposables? I mean why not cloth diapers. I'm talking
about real diapers. Diapers that pin closed with actual diaper pins.
Imagine their face when they have to put their bottoms down on a nice
thick cloth diaper. You know, soft sweet cotton diapers, diaper pins
with plastic heads? Maybe even double them with soakers..." Rose said.
"I get it. Not to mention covering those diapers with a cute pair of
those plastic panties. Noisy plastic panties. In fact, why not baby
them to the extreme," Helen said with a snicker and added, "I mean if
we're getting them baby pants we might as well get something cute as
well."
"Exactly," Rose said and added, "The store could have run out of white
and all they've got is baby-ish baby pants."
"Cloth diapers! Baby pants! Oh Rose, I like the way your mind works.
So let's do that, but why not also add those disposables back in as
well," Helen said.
"Tell me what you are thinking?" Rose asked smiling at the notion.
"Well, let's just say, for the sake of argument, that this virus is
going to last three to four days or so the doctor says. The weekend
takes care of the cloth diapers and those baby pants. However, let's
also say that he's cautioned us that it could even go on for another
three or four days after that. Now, what if they are diapered this
weekend in the cloth diapers and plastic pants, but we add a couple
more days, say Monday and Tuesday, so they end up going to school
wearing those disposables under their clothes," Helen noted.
"And we could even send them to school with a couple of extra diapers
in their backpacks, along with a note to the nurse," Rose added
laughing.
"I'm loving this. We could write them notes excusing them from gym and
that would eliminate the risk of them getting caught but they'd still
be wearing diapers. It's going to strengthen the lesson even more,"
Helen said.
"Are you kidding? This is a major lesson. You are a woman after my
own heart," Rose said laughing.
"What's a package of disposables run? Can't be that much. And we can
maybe rent the cloth diapers through a diaper service. I know that
Bed, Bath And Babies carries more than enough stuff to pull this off,"
Helen noted.
"You're right, they are perfect," Rose added.
"So now we can imagine our boys spending say today, Friday, Saturday and
the better part of Sunday wearing cute thick cloth diapers and those
adorable plastic baby pants. Then perhaps Monday they get tapped into
a cute crinkly disposable with an adorable baby motif before we send
them off to school. Think they will ever do this again?" Helen asked
smiling.
"Definitely not! But I just had a thought," Rose said.
"What?" Helen asked.
"Just for the sake of argument, what if this treatment scares them into
confessing?" Rose asked.
"Even better! We simple do the same exact thing we were going to do,
but then we do it as their punishment instead. Directly instead of
covertly," Helen said.
"Not sure if Jeff would do this very willingly!" Rose cautioned.
"Mine neither! However I'm going to give him an ultimatum! If he
does confess and refuses, I'm going to tell him he either wears those
diapers and plastic pants, or I hang them on the clothes line and tell
whoever might ask that it's because he's wetting his bed. I'm guessing
Bobby is not going to want that kind of advertising," Helen said.
"Perfect," Rose said and added, "Neither would Jeff."
Rose held a serious face for a bit then suddenly began laughing. It
was so elegant! So wonderfully poetic. The perfect form of justice.
So perfect in fact she had her cell phone open in another instant and
told her office she'd be home for the remainder of the day. A sudden
emergency. Her son was just too ill to be left alone.
"Cloth diapers! Baby Pants! What an excellent idea," Rose said
closing her cell. She picked up her coffee to take the last of it
before patting her lips dry except she paused doing that and then
shaking her head she laughed.
"Babies again," Helen said in her own amusing tone as she sipped at the
remainder of her coffee.
"Oh, and let's not forget very large amounts of baby powder, some baby
ointment, or baby oil even. Yes, make that baby oil! No, make that
baby lotion? The pink baby lotion - no, let's get all of it. Oh I
can't wait to have him laying there on top of a cloth diaper with his
legs spread as I slowly lather him like I did when he was a baby. He's
going to go ape over this! Yes, this is definitely a good plan," Rose
said.
"A woman after my own heart! Come on, Bed, Bath And Babies is just a
few blocks away," Helen said as she took the last bite of her coffee
cake.
Meanwhile, across town....
"You on-line, homealone2?" Jeff typed after seeing Bobby's nickname
appear on the board.
"Hey, homealone1, I'm here. This is absolutely the best day of my
life," Bobby typed back.
"Tell me about it," Jeff typed happily.
In the meantime Helen and Rose, each with carts, are cruising the baby
isles in Bed, Bath And Babies ....
"These!" Helen said holding two different pair of plastic panties to
compare one to the other. One pair had baby animals on it, the other
was covered in little babies sitting just in diapers.
"Which?" Rose asked putting the package of cloth diapers in her cart.
Helen's package of twelve sat next to hers. The price wasn't bad for
buying diapers, and they could use those diapers as cleaning cloths
when this was over as Rose moved closer to Helen to fondle the cute
plastic panties.
"Soft and these are just like Gerber Baby Pants the package says. Wide
crotch, forward facing leg openings so they don't pull down at the back
when the baby sits, and they're made extra roomy for diapers plus
soakers," Helen said showing Rose the package with a baby sitting on
the front of it.
"What about size?" Rose asked looking for that notation on the box.
"It says toddler, Cubby, size six! Says it will comfortably fit a
twenty inch waist. That's almost three inches more than Bobby's waist.
Jeff is what, 19 inches?" Helen asked.
"He's not! Actually, he really is about an inch smaller than Bobby's.
Anyway, grab two of those boxes each for me as well," Rose said
smiling.
"OK, now we need the baby notions like baby powder, baby oil and diaper
pins," Helen said pushing the cart ahead of her.
"Baby shampoo and baby wipes. Don't forget the baby wipes and we've
got to make sure they are baby powder scented," Rose added.
"Right! Baby wipes? Forgot about those. Been so damn long since I've
done this," Helen said snickering happily.
"Can't wait!" Rose added as they moved to the disposables.
"Oh no," Helen said suddenly. She was reaching for a package of
disposables.
"What?" Rose asked.
"Look, there," Helen said excitedly and added, "Pampers Cruisers for
our babies."
"They are adorable," Rose said looking at the pictures on the diapers.
"Very cute," Helen added.
"Size 7? Those are going to be big enough - right?" Rose asked.
"Sure are," Helen added as she tossed the package of disposables in the
cart. On the front of the package was a mom with a toddler clad only
in his thick white Cruisers. Seaseme Street characters decorated the
front. It gave her goose bumps.
"Grab another package of those for me then," Rose said happily as she
added, "I'm not sure which I want to put him into first: Those
adorable Pampers or his cute and cuddly diaper?"
"Two diapers when they are wearing diapers," Helen noted.
"Two?" Rose asked.
"Remember the old days? There is his regular fluffy diaper first, then
another folded into thirds to lay down the middle as a soaker," Helen
noted and added, "Waddlers."
"Waddlers? Oh, I get it. Definitely soakers," Rose said.
"Just two diapers thick?" Helen asked.
"Decisions, decisions," Rose added.
"Thankfully they will be in diapers long enough to learn to walk in
them," Helen noted.
"They will be," Rose said with a set to her jaw.
"Now let's get our stories straight. Obviously it's a virus, can't
remember the name of it because it's too long to pronounce, but it's
most likely intestinal since they don't have fevers. Something to also
do with the urinary track and bladder according to Doctor Clark," Helen
said.
"Who's Doctor Clark?" Rose asked as she pushed their loaded carts
towards their cars.
"Damned if I know, but he's an expert in these viruses. Don't you
remember, he's the one we talked to," Helen said laughing.
"Oh! Right! OK, now I remember who Dr. Clark is," Rose said
smiling and then laughed.
"What?" Helen asked.
"Dick Clark," Rose said laughing again as Helen joined in.
"So, we get home, explain what we now know about this 'virus' and get
them into their diapers and plastic panties before it's too late,"
Helen said.
"One minor problem," Rose said.
"What's that?" Helen asked.
"They are most likely going to say that their bed wetting is only at
night since they've only wet their beds," Rose said.
"You're right? What would make it logical that they have to wear
diapers during the day,?" Helen asked.
"Let me think? Got it! I mean I know this will work for Jeff," Rose
said.
"What?" Helen asked.
"Well, why not give them just a little more rope first," Rose said.
"How so?" Helen asked.
"Before we show them the diapers or say anything about what we've got
planned for them, what if we ask first if they've had any problems
with, you know, leakage. Let's say sudden and uncontrollable leakage.
We ask them after we tell them about the virus. In fact, it's one of
the symptoms that this Doctor Clark warned us about," Rose said.
"And they are going to obviously say yes since this actually helps them
perpetuate their fraud," Helen said smiling.
"Exactly," Rose noted and added, "They will be so eager for us to
continue believing this that they can't help but say yes. Once they
say yes to the leaking we've got them in diapers day and night," Rose
said.
"It's an elegant entrapment," Helen noted.
"It's justice," Rose added.
"Love it," Helen noted and then, laughing a little added, "Only let's
take this a step further than that," Helen said.
"Talk to me," Rose said enjoying this beyond reason.
"What if we also get them together after we've diapered them. Imagine
how embarrassed they are going to be sitting together in their diapers
and plastic pants for the whole day," Helen said.
"How?" Rose asked.
"Concerned mothers again! Look, we've got two very sick boys and we're
very worried about them, but we've also got to work sometime today and
for the rest of the week, which is true enough. However we are simply
too worried to leave them alone. So, since we both have sons that are
already sick and it's the same symptoms, it's going to be perfectly
logical for us to want to stay home with them. We can argue that we'll
simply be taking shifts watching them. Besides, they might need to be
changed and who's going to change them besides us," Helen said
laughing.
"This is going to be hilarious," Rose said and added, "but let's
actually use the term baby sitting them and then apologize for using
it."
"I'm getting very comfortable with this as well. So we are simply
going to share the 'baby sitting' chores," Rose noted and added,
"Gosh, don't you just love that term 'baby sitting'?"
"More than anything right now! So it's settled then. You diaper Jeff,
then walk him over to sit with Bobby and I. Then later on, say around
two, you come home and I walk them both back to your place so I can go
back to work till five," Helen said.
"In their diapers," Rose added.
"In their diapers," Helen noted.
"Helen! You are a treasure," Rose said.
"It's going to be really rough on them," Helen said.
"Very! And they deserve every minute of this," Rose added as they
started splitting up their purchases between their cars. Both women
were still laughing out loud as they stood by their cars. Each was
about to call their sons. Helen dialed Rose's number first to
conference with her call to Bobby as Rose stood quietly listening.
They would do the same thing with Jeff.
"Hello," Bobby said sounding terrible after recognizing his mother's
cell phone number.
"Bobby, honey, it's me," Helen said on her cell phone as Rose stood
standing with her own cell.
"Hi mom!" Bobby said sounding decidedly weak on the phone. Obviously
his mother was calling to check up on him as Bobby clicked on the sound
icon of his computer to turn sound off.
Bobby had seen the "incoming call" on his computer screen and instantly
typed in the message to Jeff that he had a phone call. Most likely his
mother checking in he typed. He'd be right back on-line when he got
off the phone.
"Honey, how are you feeling?" Helen asked.
"About the same mom," Bobby said.
"Honey, listen! I've just gotten off the phone with a Doctor Clark.
Doctor Clark specializes in viruses or something like that. The clinic
gave me his number. I was worried and called our doctor who had me
call him. Honey," Helen said.
"You did," Bobby said in a slight panic.
"I did. Anyway, I've explained your symptoms to this doctor, guess
what? Honey, it's most likely that you've got an intestinal virus of
some kind. Also, believe it or not, you most likely got it from Jeff
or he may have gotten it from you. We're not sure about that. Did you
know that Jeff was sick the same as you?" Helen asked fighting back the
snicker.
"Really? Jeff too? No mom, I didn't know that," Bobby said with his
own grin.
"Well he's sick as well! Called Rose to ask her for some advise and
she told me. Same exact symptoms as yours as a matter of fact, and
believe it or not he even wet his bed as well," Helen said.
"He did?" Bobby said almost snickering.
"He did. The fact that you both have the same symptoms really worried
Rose and I. Anyway, that's why this Doctor Clark thinks it's this
virus going around. Nothing serious, at least not yet, but you've got
to stay home and get lots of rest for the next few days. Could get
very serious very fast if we don't take care of it," Helen said
fighting to keep the laughter out of her voice.
Bobby was beside himself. It not only meant that his mother had bought
into the whole thing, but she was actually telling him to stay home for
a few more days. This was too good to be true and better still because
it also meant that Jeff was most likely in the same boat as him. He
couldn't believe his luck.
"OK mom. I'm going right back to bed right now," Bobby said.
"Honey, don't go to sleep yet. I'm on my way home. I'll picked up
some fruit juice. I want you to get some liquids into you. Doctor
Clark says that you risk dehydration with this sort of virus. Oh, and
the doctor told me to ask if you have had any sort of bladder problems?
It's another symptom. You know, any more accidents or leakage while
awake? Be honest with me honey," Helen asked and added, "Don't be
embarrassed about telling me precious, it's not your fault."
Bobby, smiling, was quick on his feet as he said, "Yes mom I did.
Gosh mom I almost wet myself a couple of times. That's why I'm sitting
up right now. I was lucky though that I woke just before it happened.
Made it to the bathroom just in time!"
"Thought so. That's another thing that this virus is known for.
Anyway, that's good that you are ok and don't worry if you wet yourself
or your bed. It's not like you can help it! Anyway, I'm going to be
home in a few minutes after I get that juice and a few other things.
I'll fix you some soup when I get there as well," Helen said.
"OK mom," Bobby said cursing his luck. He would have to log off before
his mother got there. Although it was great about that virus thing.
His good fortune, he mused, as he sat the phone down. Bobby was back on
the computer the instant his mother hung up.
Helen and Rose did the same thing with Jeff.
"Jeff!!! Mom's coming home! Says she talked with a doctor that says
we've got a virus. My mom knows that you are sick as well. Same thing
that I've got. Listen, your mother and mine talked to some doctor and
he says that we might also have bladder control problems with this
virus. If your mother calls and should ask, tell her you've almost
had or had at least one accident. Anyway, I've got to be in bed when
she gets here," Bobby typed.
Jeff, reading the words as they appeared, nodded to himself and when
Bobby stopped typing Jeff started.
"Just did that. My mom just called me as well. She's coming home too.
Says she talked with your mom and knows that you wet the bed this
morning like I did. She really sounded worried and upset. Damn! Means
we don't get to talk to that programmer just yet," Jeff typed.
"But we're home and it's not going to be too long before we're alone
again," Bobby typed.
"There is that," Jeff typed.
"Better get our stories straight about these symptoms," Bobby typed.
"Like what?" Jeff typed back.
"If your mom should ask, like I said, make sure you've nearly had an
accident and perhaps you leak a little as well. My mom asked if that
was happening," Bobby typed and added, "Going to wet a pair of
underwear and toss them in the dirty clothes for just in case. Not
much but I think it will make it sound more credible if she sees them
in the laundry."
"Roger that. It's a good idea. OK, so I'm leaking. Oh, Oh! She's
home. OK, got to go," Jeff typed. Bobby heard a car as well. It
hadn't been a full half hour yet.
Both boys were peeking out the windows as their moms turned into their
respective driveways and each heard the doors closing. They were in
their beds at the same time before their moms reached the steps. Bobby
listened for the key and other sounds hinting at where his mother was
in the house and what she was doing.
"Honey! You awake?" Helen called out.
"Yes mom," Bobby said sounding as sick as he hoped he needed to be.
"Be right up!" Helen said smiling.
"OK mom," Bobby said listening to the sounds. He heard the sounds of a
grocery bag, then the clunk of something on the kitchen table, her keys
or purse most likely. Finally her foot steps out of the kitchen,
silent on the rug, then clicking again coming up on the steps. Bobby
adjusted his face to reflect his agony at the moment.
"Hello honey. How are you feeling?" Helen asked with a very concerned
look on her face as she automatically put her hand on his forehead.
That bag she held with her other hand was curious but whatever was in
it was beyond Bobby's view.
"Hi mom, I'm OK. A little tired I guess, but fine otherwise," Bobby
said sounding weak, but looking intently at the large bag his mother
held when she came in. The bag went on the floor at the foot of his
bed as she sat on the bed's edge again putting her palm on his
forehead.
"I am so worried about you. Really, how are you feeling?" Helen asked
running her hand down his cheek.
"I'm a little dizzy," Bobby said deciding to push it a little.
"No fever still! That's good. OK, so here is the good news and bad
news. You're sick for sure, but it's not too serious the doctor says.
It could be though, so we've really got to watch this for a few days.
It's definitely intestinal and the only thing we've got to worry about
is making sure you get enough liquids so you don't get dehydrated. You
should be over the worst of this by Monday. If not we've got to take
you in and get you an antibiotic," Helen said.
"Till Monday?" Bobby asked sounding sad, but wanting to shout for joy.
"Could be worse honey. The bad news is that it's having a field day
with your kidneys and bladder. Something to do with the nerve endings.
Honestly, I'm not sure what that all meant when the doctor told me
that, other than it's why you wet your bed last night. Same with Jeff
as a matter of fact. It's mostly going to happen when you sleep but as
this thing takes hold, it could happen at any minute as well. You
said you nearly had another accident right?" Helen asked drawing Bobby
deeper into what was coming next.
"Yes, almost didn't make it to the bathroom," Bobby said looking
concerned. He was happy that there was something out there that
actually matched his symptoms. It definitely made his symptoms sound
legitimate. He was thrilled but looking very sad as he added, "Sort of
wet a pair of shorts a little. I'm sorry."
"That's what I mean, it's worrisome," Helen said and added, "And don't
you dare apologize for being sick. You can't help it."
"I know and thanks mom," Bobby said and added, "Kind of embarrassing
that I might have wet myself is all."
"Don't worry about that, OK? Anyway, Doctor Clark says that you are
most likely going to have that happen a lot in the next couple of days.
Going to get a little worse because of the liquids. Can't be helped
and remember, it's not your fault! I mean that, so I don't want you
feeling guilty about it. You're sick and that's what we need to
concern ourselves over. OK," Helen said stroking her son's forehead.
"OK mom," Bobby said sounding even sicker than he had when she came
in. He was going to be home tomorrow for sure!
"Anyway, that's the other part that I'm concerned about," Helen said.
"What's that?" Bobby asked.
"You're wetting accidentally," Helen said.
"I'm sorry but I can't help it," Bobby said.
"I know honey, I know. In fact, it's to be expected. So, I don't want
you to think that you're being punished when I put you into those
things. Like I said, it's not your fault and it's only going to be for
a couple of days," Helen said trying desperately to keep her face
serious.
"What things?" Bobby asked remembering the bag his mother had walked in
with. She had sat them down at the foot of his bed so he couldn't see
what it was. He was curious before this, now he was very curious.
"Honey, I know you're not going to like this but again, it can't be
helped. Anyway, I'm going to have to put you back into diapers and
plastic pants for a couple of days. This way you don't risk wetting
yourself or your bed. Frankly, if you think about it, it's a lot
easier on me as well," Helen said bending back to grab the bag she had
sat down.
"Diapers," Bobby said in a sudden panic. He almost bolted up at the
mention of diapers, but caught himself as he added, "Diapers?"
"Diapers and plastic pants," Helen said savoring the words as she
added, "Cloth diapers."
"Cloth diapers?" Bobby asked again trying to grasp what was happening.
"It's for your own good honey. Just till the worst part of this
passes. This Doctor Clark says it never goes past four or five days
and, like I said, you'll most likely be out of them by Sunday. Monday
worst case. I know it's very embarrassing for you, but it's a whole
lot better than waking to a wet bed again. Right? Even worse if you
had an accident while you are awake," Helen said.
Bobby had dug the hole he was now in. He'd even told her he'd almost
had another accident already and even wet his shorts once. The only
way out of this was to tell her the truth and that definitely wasn't an
option. She was missing work and worse, he'd lied. No telling what
would happen if it got out he was fibbing!
"Mom," Bobby started to say.
"What honey?" Helen asked.
"I guess you're right about the diapers, but did you know they sell
pull-ups that almost look like underwear? You know, the kind of
disposables that look like under pants," Bobby said meekly.
"I know honey, but the woman at the health store suggested diapers only
because you're a little older and being older you wet a little more
than someone young enough for pull-ups even if they fit you. Plus
cloth diapers with soakers are more absorbent and that will make them a
little more comfortable. And don't forget, you'll be taking in a lot of
liquids," Helen said.
"Soakers?" Bobby asked.
"I'm going to double the diapers and add another diaper folded down
the middle. We call that diaper a soaker," Helen said.
"Oh, right," Bobby said softly suddenly cursing his circumstance.
"Come on, it's only going to help and I'm feeling bad enough already
that you're sick. Will you do this for me?" Helen asked.
"Yes ma'am!" Bobby said feeling his shoulders slump. He was trapped
as he watched the bag his mother now held.
"Good! Now do me a favor and go toss your robe in the wash. It needs
washing anyway and most likely that's the only thing you'll be wearing
with these things on. These diapers are too bulky for shorts, pants or
pajamas bottoms. Go ahead with the robe and then take yourself a nice
hot shower while I get your baby things ready," Helen said.
"Baby things?" Bobby repeated.
"Didn't mean that. I meant your incontinent things," Helen said.
"OK," Bobby said.
"If you get dizzy again, sit down immediately in the tub and yell for
me, OK," Helen said.
"OK," Bobby said.
"Oh and take this in with you," Helen said.
"Baby shampoo," Bobby said.
"It will help with the urine smell," Helen noted.
That little thing with the robe was Rose's idea. Cleaver little ploy
that would leave both boys without anything to cover what they were
about to wear. Those robes would be washed and dried and that meant
unavailable for at least an hour, maybe two. The women decided they
wanted at least that hour while they brought the boys together.
Bobby did as he was told walking slowly to the chair in front of his
computer to grab the robe. His computer screen saver was on. His time
on that chat board now only a vanishing dream. His diapers, he
thought, as he passed out of the room watching in utter dismay his
mother opening one of the packages. A puffy package of white was
lifted from the bag.
"Six ply," Bobby's mother Helen noted as she caught Bobby looking.
"What?" Bobby stopped and asked.
"Sorry, I was reading from this package of diapers. Says they are six
ply down the middle, you know, an absorbent center, but I think I'll
double them anyway," Helen said and added, "And fold in a soaker."
"Whatever," Bobby said moving a little quicker out of the room. He did
not want to know how thick his diapers were or anything else about
them.
Jeff was in the exact same boat only he was in the shower when his
mother tossed his robe in the machine. Both boys had almost the same
thing facing them when they returned to their bedrooms. On Bobby's
bed, as it was with Jeff's, were two cloth diapers neatly laid out flat,
one laying on top of the other.
Both moms folded another top diaper lengthwise down the middle of the
first. Next to those already open were two diaper pins. Next to those
diaper pins was baby powder and baby lotion, the pink one, and laying
flat nearby a pair of plastic vinyl baby pants. Both had chosen the
baby prints for their boy's first pair.
That baby lotion, instead of the baby oil, was another idea of Roses.
It was pink and read Baby Lotion on the front. The picture of the Baby
was what had attracted Rose to using it. It was also nicely scented
which she thought would be a bonus. Helen had agreed and that's what
was on Bobby's nightstand as well when he came back in. With the baby
powder added to their shampoo, they would definitely smell like babies.
The two diapers and a soaker made a very thick pile that would make a
very thick diaper under those adorably baby print style baby pants.
Too thick for pants and very "baby" looking when the boys would meet.
With their robes in the wash they would be wearing only tee-shirts,
their diapers, plastic panties and slippers. A fitting look for the
two boys when the mothers would bring them together.
"Just sit right on top of your diaper honey and then lay back before
you spread your legs. Oh, and when you spread your legs spread them as
far as you can," Helen said to Bobby who cringed first at the words and
then at the plastic panties laying at the far side of his bed. He
almost confessed right then, but bit his tongue.
"There we go. Now spread your legs nice and wide. Right to the edge
of the bed. Gosh, I can hardly remember when the last time I did this?
You had to be... What? Two or three... Must have been two. Yes, it
was just after your second birthday. OK, now if I remember this right,
it's baby lotion first, baby powder next then pin your diapers on you,"
Helen said making sure she kept up a nice dialog. Bobby had closed his
eyes as she added, "Although I guess you don't want me blowing on your
tummy like I use to do, do you?"
"Not likely," Bobby said in just a whisper. He couldn't remember the
last time he felt this humiliated or embarrassed. He was laying over
three diapers and his mother, smiling, was twisting open a bottle of
pink baby lotion.
Bobby forced his eyes closed tighter when his mother began adding that
baby lotion. At first if was cold, then warmed. He was also slippery.
He fought what was happening, but had little control over it and his
face, already red and warming, grew hotter still from his reaction. He
was sure his mother would think he liked it. He kept trying to
remember that he would get an erection from anyone doing that but even
so, it was his mother and that made it worse. His mother also was
spending way too much time applying the lotion and he almost reached a
climax.
"Honey, it's OK. Don't be embarrassed. You used to do that when you
were a baby. Don't give it another thought. Babies, like young boys,
like being caressed before they get diapered. It's part of the bonding
process," his mother said as she finished with the baby lotion and
began with the baby powder. It was way too much again as she kept
shaking it over him. If she could have, she would have emptied it on
him. A moment later Bobby felt the diaper move and grow snug. It was
snug and taught between his legs as his mother forced the two diaper
pins into his diapers wings and clipped them closed.
Meanwhile...
"Front flap hugging the sides, back flap over that! Hey, I haven't
lost my touch. That's not bad considering how long it's been," Jeff's
mother Rose said as she pinned the second of the two sides together
before adding, "Now will you look at that! Perfect diapering! I've
still got it!"
Jeff opened his eyes, looked and nodded for no other reason than to at
least appear casual. He wasn't casual at all, but he also knew there
was nothing he could do about it.
"Great mom!" he said sarcastically. He was looking at a triangle of
white starting from his waist to gather in a puffy pointy triangle that
collected between his legs and puffed out at the front. The two diaper
pins were holding it on him but it was thick. It wasn't a pretty sight
Jeff thought, which was exactly the opposite of his mom's opinion.
"Oh stop! It's not like your being punished and it's for your own
good. Now bend your legs and hold your feet up for your baby... I
mean your plastic panties," Rose said as she gathered the baby pants in
her hands.
Bobby, meanwhile, watched the baby pants go over his feet, then slid
down his legs stretching the leg elastic some as they reached his
thighs where the elastic caught. He could have stood then, but his
mother said that the lady suggested putting the baby pants on with the
baby... with the boy laying down which kept the diaper material flat
between the legs. Bobby's mother apologized for using the word baby
again.
Both boys were in their triple diapers and adorable printed white
plastic vinyl panties at almost the same time. The plastic bloused
nicely and shimmered cutely reflecting the light coming into their
rooms. It was like some kind of soft white liquid glass as the folds
of their baby pants moved when they did, even slightly. The baby
panties also crinkled a bit which added a nice touch to the bulky look
that the boys took on with no other clothing.
"Go ahead and get into a tee-shirt," Rose said and added, "And your
socks as well. I'm going to call Helen."
"Socks? For what?" Jeff asked. There was still the risk that Bobby
might have confessed which was something Jeff thought of as well.
"For your slippers or shoes. Honey, Helen and I have talked this over.
While you're not terribly sick, you could be. We just think it's going
to be better that someone is with you at all times, but Helen and I
still have to work. Anyway, we're going to share baby sitting chores
for the day. Sorry about that! I didn't mean it like you are a baby.
Just a term. Bobby is coming over here when he's ready. You two can
do homework in the family room together, after lunch. Remember, it's
still a school day."
"Bobby is coming here?" Jeff asked in a panic.
"Yes. At least for some part of the day. Helen's going to go into
work then she'll come back and relieve me so I can go in and do the
closing," Rose said as she stood and added, "Come on and I'll start
lunch for you two."
"Bobby is coming here?" Jeff asked again in a panic and added, "Mom,
he's going to see me like this?"
"Obviously. Honey, Bobby is coming here wearing the same exact things
you're wearing! Helen and I got the same exact things when we shopped!
Look, we did that on purpose so you both would be wearing the same
stuff. You're both wearing diapers and baby... I mean plastic panties.
No advantage or disadvantage. That way neither of you can tease the
other," Rose said.
"Where's my robe?" Jeff asked in a renewed panic as he went to the back
of his door.
"It's in the laundry being washed. You'll be needing it for the next
few days and it hasn't been washed since heaven knows when," Rose said.
"MOM! Bobby is going to see me like this!" Jeff said almost in tears.
"And you are going to see Bobby in the same exact things, so stop your
whining. Maybe I should stop on the way home work tonight and pick up
a pacifier," Rose said sounding suddenly angry.
Jeff closed his mouth. There was no sense in pushing this any further
than he had. He was trapped and he knew it. Rose picked up her cell
phone after walking into the living room. Jeff was in his room putting
a tee-shirt and pair of socks on. He was going to wear his tennis
shoes and that was it for clothing.
"Helen! It's me! We're all set here!" Rose said.
"How did it go?" Helen asked.
"Are you kidding? I nearly fainted when I pinned him into his diapers.
He looks so adorable! How about Bobby?" Rose asked.
"Same here. Soaked him in baby lotion and I must have used a third of
the baby powder already," Helen said happily.
"Excellent, me too on that baby powder. He smells like a baby even
from several feet away. OK then, I'll see you in a couple of minutes.
Oh, does Bobby like Vegetable Beef or chicken noodle soup?" Rose asked.
"Both, either," Helen said.
"Great. I'm starting the soup now," Rose said changing her tone on the
phone when Jeff came in and sat at the kitchen table.
Bobby too was looking for his robe.
"Oh hell! That's right! I forgot about the robe," Helen said when
Bobby became alarmed that his robe was still in the wash. She thought
for a second and added, "Well, for now grab that throw your grandmother
knitted and put it around your shoulders. It's big enough to cover
your diapers and plastic pants! You're only going next door!"
Bobby gripped the blanket around himself for all of his worth as his
mother opened the front door. She had her pink gym bag now filled as
Bobby's temporary diaper bag and had chosen that one on purpose. There
were the extra diapers, another pair of his baby pants, the powder,
lotion and wipes. She'd said each of them out loud as she put them
into the pink bag.
"Ready?" Helen asked.
"No!" Bobby said standing at the door. He felt like some kind of weird
baby going off to the sitters with his mother holding a diaper bag of
all things. That damn PINK diaper bag he cursed under his breath and
again when he felt the blanket move over the mound of baby pants and
diaper he wore. Every move he made, every step taken, there was that
faint rustling whispering, "You're wearing baby pants little baby."
"Come on honey, and let's get this over with. I should be back by three
and then Jeff and you can come over here to play, if you're done with
your studies that is," Helen said fighting the smile that was creeping
up on her face. She hadn't known how hard it would be to keep that
smile off her face.
Bobby stepped out into the bright sun with the blanket almost down to
his knees. He was holding the blanket closed with one hand, his books
in the other. The blanket wrapped around him was like a skirt and
every once in a while it moved. He kept hoping that the breeze didn't
raise the blanket past the edge of his plastic pants. That would be a
disaster if the neighbors were watching and he was sure everyone of
them was.
It was bad enough that the blanket poked out nearly as far as
Jennifer's butt did when he stood at the door looking at the hallway
mirror. Jennifer, like her mother had an ample bottom and now so did
Bobby. Bobby moved faster than his mother toward Jeff's house, but
slowed fearing he'd get there and the door wouldn't open. He also
didn't want to appear too healthy or happy.
Jeff, near the kitchen nodded at Bobby solemnly who nodded back
silently, when Rose let him in. Helen took the blanket Bobby had just
after coming in so Bobby couldn't hide what he was wearing. Jeff's
bottom looked even bigger than Bobby's did.
Bobby waited for his mother Helen. Both boys flushed nearly crimson
seeing each other, and knowing that they both had on the same things.
Last thing Bobby wanted to do was take that blanket off but Jeff was
already standing in just his diaper, baby pants, and tee shirt.
"Bobby honey, here, take the blanket from your mom and put it on the
chair in the family room, and come have some lunch," Rose said.
Bobby did so, reluctantly, as Jeff stood there. They both were wearing
just their tee-shirts and their diapers under those billowing plastic
vinyl panties. Those diapers were too thick for the shirts to hang
loose and cover them.
"I've put together a DIAPER BAG for Bobby, and I've added the scale and
note pad, Helen noted.
"Excellent. Going to empty my gym bag for Jeff's DIAPER BAG as well.
I'll get to it so he has a DIAPER BAG when he goes over to your place."
"So, I'll see you at three then?" Helen said giving Rose a quick
friendly kiss on her cheek. She bent and kissed Bobby as well, telling
him to be good and not to hesitate to tell Rose if he needed to have
his DIAPER CHANGED, because she didn't want him getting a DIAPER RASH.
Bobby dropped his eyes, blushed and nodded. Jeff didn't even look over
at the bag, but he knew it was there.
Helen had almost told Bobby to be a good baby for Rose, but caught
herself now as she headed for the door she was regretting she hadn't
made it come out as another mistake she could apologized over. She was
positive she was reinforcing his regret and wanted to do more.
Bobby had asked about going to the bathroom when the urge hit since he
could at least do that when he was awake. Only his mother vetoed that
idea by grabbing up a pad, pencil and the scale she used for packages.
She had said that the doctor suggested keeping track of what Bobby took
in and what came out. She wanted to make sure he was getting enough
liquids she'd said.
It was crucial, she had said, that more stayed in so he didn't risk
getting dehydrated. Helen told Bobby that she had weighed his diaper
dry along with his baby pants to be used as the base weight. Bobby was
going to have to use those diapers from now until three in the
afternoon at least. Bobby had almost cried over the thought of wetting
into a diaper or being wiped and changed from a wet diaper.
"See you!" Rose said at the stove.
"Oh, that's another thing Rose, I've added the weight of his diaper
dry and he's already had eight ounces of juice. Make sure he takes
another bottle... Shoot! I mean another make sure he gets another
glass of juice now and eight ounces on the hour, every hour," Helen
said as she headed for the door. She was luckier than Rose because in
a moment she could let loose the laughter she'd been fighting back all
morning.
"Got it," Rose said not daring to turn from the stove or else the boys
would see her face as well. When the soup was ready she called the
boys in.
The boys ate their soup in silence. Both boys saw what the other was
wearing and each wondering if he looked as babyish as the other did.
They actually looked like boys trying to look like babies.
"Hello?" Rose asked picking up the phone and heading for the patio door
and out before closing it. Rose knew it was Helen even before she saw
the caller ID.
"Hey, how's it going?" Helen asked.
"Are you serious? Helen, this has got to be their worst day ever and
my best! Believe it or not I've got them both laying on a large pink
satin spread in the family room reading their History assignments.
Called the school and got their homework assignments over the phone. I
wish I had a camera but didn't dare," Rose said as she laughed and
added, "I told them that I put them on the floor because I was worried
about having accidents so I put a plastic paint tarp down under the
spread first. It crinkles a lot when they move."
"They laying down or sitting?" Helen asked.
"Laying down. Both are on their stomachs. Honestly, I wish you could
see this. They've got these two cute puffy white butts sticking up
like little babies, but I think they thought it was better than me
seeing the front," Rose said.
"You're kidding? That's great! Gosh I really do wish I was there to
see that," Helen said and added, "Got to figure out how to get
pictures? It would be wonderful to get a couple of pictures of those
puffy bottoms. Just had an idea! Tell you what, before I call them
over here, you know, when it's my turn, I'll set up the digital camera
somewhere and just have it record continuously. At least we'd have
that DVD for some future use. It's small enough to hide."
"Oh that would be perfect. OK, so I'll see you at three then. Just
call when you are ready and I'll walk them both over," Rose said.
"Will do," Helen said hanging up the phone.
It was five minutes to three when Helen pulled into the driveway of her
house. Bobby and Jeff had been in their diapers and plastic pants
since eleven. Rose changed each boy individually on the living room
floor giving each the opportunity to see the other getting his diaper
changed. She didn't use the lotion, but she did use the wipes and
added lots of baby powder before putting them back into their fresh
diapers and plastic panties. She was very slow and very methodical.
Rose dutifully noted the weight of their diapers after putting each
into a plastic bag first. She did that little chore after she'd
changed them and on the coffee table so both boys could see their wet
diapers.
Rose had also decided to forget to put Jeff's robe in the dryer and
would apologize for that when the time came. He hadn't asked about it
after a while. Both boys were going to have to walk to Bobby's house
with just their blankets again.
Meanwhile, Helen was putting the Digital camera on the shelf near the
television. She taped over the small red light showing it was
recording so it wouldn't show. She had two hours of memory and two
more disk as she pressed the button and moved the books and plant back
in place. It was the clutter and small lens that would keep it hidden
as she punched in Rose's number.
"All set," Helen said after Rose answered.
Jeff was angry that his mother had forgotten to put his robe in the
dryer, but there wasn't anything else to be done about it as he wrapped
his own throw blanket around his shoulders. He had suffered the
indignity of being changed before watching his best friend get his
diaper changed. They had avoided eye contact with each other and went
back to their homework in silence.
Rose justified another change by telling him that she knew he was dry,
but that it still gets warm with those plastic panties on and that he'd
feel better in a nice fresh diaper with more sprinkles of baby powder.
He didn't. Bobby and Jeff would get their diapers changed one more
time. Helen had promised Rose that.
"OK, I'm going to work!" Rose said after both boys were again sitting
on the large satin spread over that same thin plastic tarp that Rose
carried in with her. They were directly in front of the digital camera
running silently a few feet away. There was a speaker not too far away
and Helen had put on what she called her background music tapes she
enjoyed while reading. It would mask what faint little noises the
digital cam made and it would add music to the tape background that was
recording the boys still doing their homework.
An hour passed before Bobby was led to his room, then Jeff followed a
few short minutes later. Both boys had their diapers changed by both
moms before they returned to the spread. Helen was going to do this at
least two more times before she diapered him for bed. She had twelve
diapers and four pair of plastic pants. She would use ten diapers
leaving her a set of two for tomorrow morning while she washed the ones
he'd been in already.
This time Bobby's mother, as Bobby had feared, used a baby wipe having
Bobby hold his legs up with his hands while she wiped him. She had him
stay that way when she began using the baby lotion and finally after
that she sprinkled his diaper liberally with baby powder before he
rested his legs on the bed again before spreading them. It was about
the worst thing he'd ever had happen to him when he spread his legs
wide once more. It was second only to wetting his diaper and having to
ask to be changed.
It was agreed between Helen and Rose that they would do the same sort
of thing tomorrow with Helen watching them till noon then Rose till
four. Saturday they'd watch the boys at home, individually, since both
women were off. It was then that they would spring the disposable
Pampers on them. Bobby was walked back into the family room after he'd
been changed. He was sullen as he sat back down on the satin spread
and picked up his history book.
It was a fresh embarrassment on Bobby's face since his mother had used
that baby wipe on him before the lotion and powder again... Way too
much powder Bobby thought. Jeff knew why Bobby's face was so red. His
had been that same color for the same reason. Helen sat on the chair
next to the couch with a book as Bobby went back down on the satin
spread.
It was hard not laughing as Helen moved the book to cover her face.
The too boys were facing the television doing homework with their large
padded bottoms facing Helen. Like two babies minus the baby toys. It
had been years since she'd had to sit for babies and she smiled again.
She smiled this time over the memories of Bobby, a bit smaller, but in
that same spot almost looking identical to those times.
It was five after five when Rose walked over with Jeff's robe to bring
him home. Jeff, with a great deal of relief, slipped his robe on. His
relief didn't last given the size of his bottom as the robe flowed out
and over the large mound under it. It was the reason he hurried as
they walked towards the house. Jeff had suddenly seen Jennifer walking
down towards them from the bus stop.
Bobby was changed right after his shower which he took just after Jeff
left. His double diapers were waiting for him on his bed when he
walked into his room. His robe, also now dry, hung over the back of
his chair at his computer desk. He flushed crimson once more as his
mother poured baby lotion onto her hands.
"Bobby, I'm going to put you into double diapers for bed tonight but in
the meantime I've purchased a package of Pamper's - Cruisers actually.
They are size 7 and should fit but I'd like to make sure," Helen said.
"Pampers? Why? I mean how come? I'm already wearing diapers for
heaven's sakes," Bobby said in utter frustration. Pampers of all
things and Cruisers no less.
"You may have to wear diapers to school. I'm not sure yet and if you
do then wearing the disposables will at least get you through to the
next changes without having to pull your pants off," Helen said and
added, "I thought you'd even prefer them over diapers and those baby
pants."
Jeff too was changed on the family room floor after his mother spread
the blanket out once again. He felt like a baby in those moments as
his mother teased the diaper left and right before laying it over him.
She took way too long, or it seemed like she did, in pinning it closed
and just as agonizing long for his baby pants again. Jeff also didn't
like that pat he got either and his mother apologized. It was a habit
she had from years ago she said, from when he was a baby, she added.
Of that package of twelve diapers that both moms brought home only two
remained by the time the boys made it the safety of their rooms that
night. Each was on their computers almost instantly...
"This is too weird!" Jeff typed.
"Bizarre!" Bobby typed back.
"It's like I'm suddenly a baby! I mean mom is beside herself over
this. Believe it or not, I think she is really enjoying this. She
keeps telling me how wonderful it is to sort of have those baby days
back again," Jeff typed.
"That's nothing! My mom used a big powder puff for the baby powder
after my shower! She was actually humming some kind of lullaby and she
powdered me almost to my neck. I don't think she was even aware she
was doing it," Bobby typed.
"I know! I smell like a baby. I mean I really smell like a baby. Mom
must have used half the baby powder on me when she diapered me for
bed," Jeff answered.
"Really. Well, try this then... Mom even sprinkled powder over my
damn sheets! Said it made my room smell... get this... 'baby fresh',"
Bobby noted.
"What are we going to do?" Jeff wrote across Bobby's screen and added,
"We've got a whole day of this again tomorrow and worse, this weekend
besides!"
"Damned if I know? I know we can't confess now. They've spent a
fortune on that stuff. And there is one other thing I just thought
about..." Bobby typed back.

his sentence.
"Exactly," Bobby wrote.
"I'd already thought about that. Would look too odd both of us are
suddenly dry after all of this," Jeff noted.

"OK, so laugh if you want but tonight... I mean after mom powdered me
and diapered me I felt... I felt so damn relaxed. Can't explain it,
but it really felt sort of nice," Bobby typed almost regretting what
he'd just wrote as he added, "I guess it was when she hugged me. Very
weird."
"Hey! YOU LIKE WHAT IS HAPPENING," Jeff typed in capitals.
"Heck no! What are you NUTS," Bobby typed back. There was a pause
before letters began to start across Jeff's screen as Bobby wrote,
"It's just... Oh hell man never mind."
"OK, just remember, we're not supposed to like these things or what's
happening right," Jeff typed mostly to calm himself or perhaps convince
himself. He was afraid Bobby was right or that he'd have to confess to
the same thing. He kept saying he didn't like it.
"Right," Bobby typed back.
"Anyway, I've got to
