Chapter 11: Found Out
__________________________________________
It's Claire. Bring the bag. She knows. Please don't be upset. Everything is fine. Just trust me. See you soon xoxo
Milo stopped dead in his tracks. How could they have already been compromised? Maybe Claire used the diaper and it leaked. Or maybe she'd just told Lisa everything. About Milo's fetish and the days that'd led up to this one. What would Lisa think? Milo and Lisa were siblings but, Claire and Lisa were closer and practically joined at the hip. Anger and fear were building up inside Milo as he doubled back for the locker room. He retrieved the diaper bag and then started the long walk back to the restaurant. He was lost in thought dreading the upcoming conversation.
What all does Lisa know?
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"The bag? What's in the bag? Wait like a diaper bag?!" Lisa practically shouted as she finished reading the message Claire had just sent Milo.
"Lisa, please! God! lower your voice!" Claire said sternly.
"When did you start wearing diapers?!" Lisa whispered leaning in.
"Ugh...I can't believe I'm telling you this... Do you remember the sleepover we were at? The one at Rachel Karczevski's House?"
"Wait..The night when you peed the bed and you got my favorite hello kitty blanket wet?"
"Yes!" Claire spat back.
"I remember.. yeah? What about it?" She said as she rubbed her tearful friend's hand.
"Alright, well anyways..Her mom obviously told my parents I wet the bed and they came over and picked me up.. well, they had a case of goodnites waiting for me in my room when I got home and that was it..I wore them every night for the rest of middle school.." sighed Claire.
"..wait, really? All of our sleepovers back then?"
"Yeah, just about.."
"No, I mean...There's no way. I would have noticed." Lisa said in disbelief.
"I concealed it well. And when we stayed at your house...your mom...she helped. She would have you always get in the shower first..." Claire said indicating with her hand presentationally.
Lisa's eyes went wide.
"Wow, holy shit Claire. I can't believe I never knew!" Lisa exclaimed.
"She would just... get you away from me so she could throw out my wet Goodnite. I always had clean panties with me but, I always made sure to get my pjs on without you in the room. And then every morning that came after, she would make sure we'd shower separately before church. So that.."
"We'd be out the door faster..oh my god. You're right! I just believed her because we were always goofing around procrastinating and.." Lisa said covering her mouth.
"So, anyways.." Claire went on.
"My parents made sure that I was in Goodnites almost every night for the next three years. And luckily it was something that I grew out of. But, something that I always remembered was how... I kind of liked wearing them sometimes. I liked feeling little. It was baby cute to me in some ways. Still embarrassing but, in some ways it made me feel..I don't know...safe?" Claire sighed.
"...aww, Claire." Lisa said squeezing her hand.
"You don't think I'm nuts?" Claire sniffled.
"Claire, of course I do!" Lisa laughed as she tickled Claire.
"Cut it out!" Claire said shushing Lisa.
"Yeah, okay so it's a little..strange but, I still love you! I could never think anything less of you! You're my best friend who got me through all those break ups in high school, you've come to every track meet I ever competed in, read through every shitty short story I've ever written and then you pushed me to keep writing to the point we made it into a film festival! Why would I ever make fun of you for peeing your pants!"
"Shhh!" Claire said slapping the table.
"Shit...sorry! Anyways, so wait..how does Milo fit into all of this?" Lisa asked.
"Well, he and I were just talking about secrets that we were super embarrassed about. He shared a secret. I shared mine."
"Tell me his!" Lisa begged.
"Nope, not sharing. You're lucky to know about this one!" Claire said crossing her arms.
"Anyways so...I told him about the goodnites and i guess...We now have a thing where..he and I are..it's almost like.. god.. I don't even know how to say this without saying it."
"Just say it then!" Lisa hissed.
"Well, he's your brother! I don't wanna make it weird between you guys!" Claire said shrugging.
"Claire, I promise. I pinky promise not to judge you or say anything to Milo that you don't want me to say." Lisa said extending her little finger.
"Okay Lisa." Claire said wrapping her pinky around Her friend's.
"I'll tell you but, I won't say everything. This is as much Milo's secret as it is mine. I'm just going to tell you my side of this is...Milo has been...babying me for the last two days. The diapers were my idea. I first was searching CVS and Amazon and all the ones they had just looked way too...elderly, you know? I googled 'cute adult diapers' and found them. I just laughed when I saw them."
"Go on..." she stuttered out between giggles.
"He's changing me... he's bathed me, he's cooked for me. He's absolutely been so..tender and loving and..I...I'm actually into it."
"Wow. Really?" Lisa said with her jaw nearly grazing the table surface.
"And I'm the one who set it up. He never would've agreed to this so, I ordered the diapers when he flew back home. I wore one to the airport when I picked him up and I wet myself on the way home. He changed me and he's been so kind and nurturing. I don't know, Lisa. It's just added a brand new dynamic to our life. And our bedroom.."
"Okay, ew." Lisa laughed.
"Sorry. Anyways, yeah. We thought it would be cute if I was his little girl for the day. We weren't expecting to see you."
"Claire I...just..wow." Lisa sighed.
"I know. I know."
"And Milo has just been..okay with everything? Like he's not grossed out by diapers?"
"At first he was kind of but, I mean. I make it worth his while." Claire giggled.
"Okay stop!" Lisa said gagging.
"Okay! Sorry! Just...please..Milo is on his way back and we NEVER meant for anyone to know about this part of our life. Especially family or friends."
"Can't imagine why!" Lisa laughed sarcastically.
"So when he gets back..just don't embarrass him. Like don't make this a big deal." Claire pleaded.
"Me? How could I possibly use any of this as ammunition in the future?" Lisa said as she attempted to stifle her laughter.
Claire frowned and then gave Lisa her well practiced death stare.
"Ugh! No fair! Fine. I'll keep my comments to myself." Lisa sighed.
"Really? You swear?"
"I swear." Lisa reassured her friend.
"When Milo comes back with your baby bag, we'll just go get that wet diaper of yours changed and then I'll be out of your hair."
Claire's eyes bulged out of her head.
"What.."
"You heard me Claire. When Milo comes back with your diaper bag, you're going let me take you to the restroom to change your diaper and in return, I won't say anything else about any of this to anyone. Ever. I'll get in my car and head back to Hollywood and then we can meet up next week. The rest of the day is yours and Milo's, I just wanna change baby Claire and then I'll be on my way." Lisa smiled slyly as if catching Claire in a spider web.
Claire was totally baffled but, absolutely intrigued. Lisa was the only person on earth aside from Milo that she could share her deepest secrets with. This was just another one of those secrets. And while she was feeling embarrassed to be sitting across from her best friend in a very wet diaper, she was also feeling a bit relieved that Lisa was the opposite of repulsed.
"Alright, you can change me but, only if you let me put you in one to wear on your way out of the park." Claire said extending her hand.
Lisa narrowed her eyes and tapped her fingers on the table. Like clockwork, Milo came through the double doors at the entrance with a navy blue bag that Lisa hadn't seen before. She looked back at Claire, reached for her hand, and then shook it to seal their agreement. Milo scooted into the seat next to Claire and dropped the bag down next to their booth.
"Milo, hey!" Lisa said smiling as her brother approached them.
"Claire, are you okay? What happened?" He said noticing that she was noticeably damp all over her shirt and skirt.
"I'm fine." Claire nodded as Milo embraced her.
"Why is your shirt all wet?" Milo said confused.
"The busboy. He dumped water all over her by accident. They're getting the meal for us as a courtesy."
"Wow, that's nice of them."
"Yeah..."
"But, what about your di-" Milo stopped.
Lisa swept up the bag from the floor and swung it over her shoulder in a fluid motion. Lisa smiled at him mischievously and he then felt a tap on his shoulder from Claire's direction.
"So, you're okay with Claire's..situation?" Milo asked Lisa in a stoic fashion.
"Milo, it's fine!" Lisa exclaimed.
"Whatever you guys talked about..it's not what you think Lisa!" Milo began.
"Milo, all we talked about... was the truth." Lisa said.
"The truth?" Milo asked.
"I'll explain later." Claire whispered.
Milo was dead quiet as he shifted his gaze back and forth between the two girls.
"And Lisa..you're fine with this. You don't think we're batshit crazy?"
"Nope." Lisa sighed.
"Lisa, please don't tell Mom and Dad. Claire and I are jus-"
"Milo, do us all a favor and relax. Nobody cares. It's always the inner monologue that's worried about opinions coming from the outside. If Claire's happy, and you're happy...then that's amazing. And that's all that truly matters. I promise won't say anything."
For the second time today Milo felt a tidal wave of relief. Whatever they had talked about, Milo was happy Lisa wasn't disgusted or upset with them. He wasn't used to anyone knowing anything about this. He had gone almost twenty years without anyone knowing. Now two of the people he loved most knew (at least to some degree) one of his darkest secrets on the planet. But, how much did Lisa know? This thought was interrupted by the waiter coming back from the kitchen.
"Have we decided on what we're getting?"
"Yes!" Claire spoke up.
"I'll have the cheeseburger with no tomatoes add pickle."
"And how did you want that cooked?"
"Medium well."
"Fries okay?" He asked.
"Yes."
"Alright, and for you sir?"
"I'll have a cheese burger as well but, add bacon and hold the lettuce and tomato. Fries for my side please. Burger medium well."
"Alright, good to go."
"And you darling?" The waiter said eying Lisa from his notepad.
"Nothing for me, I'm leaving soon. Just meeting these two for lunch."
"Alright, well we'll have that out for you guys as soon as possible!"
The waiter took their menus and was off again for the kitchen to put in the order. Lisa and Claire then began sliding out of the booth.
"Milo, I'm going to have Lisa...help me get cleaned up..okay?" Claire said shyly.
Milo gawked at Lisa.
"Milo, it's all good. We'll be right back. We're just..having a moment. Stay here and we'll be back in 10 minutes ." Lisa said as Claire pushed past him and stood up from the booth.
"Alright. I guess.." Milo sighed.
Claire Kissed him on the lips and then Lisa kissed him on the cheek.
"Okay, get going. Be quick! Food will be great before you know it!" Milo said.
"We'll be super quick." Lisa said taking Claire's hand and leading her out. Claire giggled and looked back at Milo as she waddled after Lisa. Milo could now see her diaper peaking slightly out from below the hem of her skirt. He watched as they exited through the front.
"Alright follow me." Claire said as she broke from Lisa's grasp.
"Claire, easy." Lisa said as she tried to keep up.
"I'm sorry, I'm just anxious." Claire said as she felt the weight of her diaper as it drooped.
"Aww..Is little Claire excited to get her diapey changed?" Lisa cooed mockingly.
"God, yes! It's so heavy." She admitted as she waddled with a noticeable hitch in her step.
Claire led Lisa quickly back to the same family restroom where she'd previously had her diaper changed about an hour ago. The door was locked when Lisa turned the handle. Not wanting to draw attention to Claire, they went and sat on a bench near the restroom and waited for the occupants to exit. Claire's diaper squished as it came into contact with the bench.
"You okay there baby girl?" Lisa said teasing Claire.
"I will be once I'm back in a dry diaper." she sighed.
About three minutes passed and they watched as a mother and her newborn exited. They surveyed the area to make sure no one was heading in the direction of the door, bolted to the entrance, and then ducked inside.
"Woah." Lisa gasped.
"I know, the table is gigantic."
"I don't think I've ever been inside a family restroom before. Well, probably as a baby but, you know what I mean." Lisa said while taking in the surroundings as she unzipped the diaper bag. She reached in and retrieved the kiddo diaper that Claire was excited to be put back into.
"That one's mine. You can wear the one with the bears on it!" Claire giggled while pointing to the diaper bag.
"Oh, is that so little lady?" Lisa laughed as she picked up Claire and plopped her on top of the changing table.
"So, we got the new diaper, what else do we need from the bag, Miss Claire?" Lisa said with her hands on her hips.
"We need da baby wipes, da baby powder.." Claire said in a toddler voice.
"And..I've kinda got a tiny case of diaper rash so..."
"Rash cream, got it." Lisa said setting it next to the other supplies. Without any coaching from Claire, Lisa flipped up Claire's skirt exposing her wet diaper. She then fanned out the new diaper and then slid it underneath Claire. Claire began to feel hesitant about what was about to happen but, she had no real reason to. After all, Claire knew Lisa had changed her fair share of diapers before. She'd just never experienced Lisa's handiwork first hand. In fact, Claire remembered on one occasion when she babysat for a set of twins when she was fourteen. The terrible twos were so overwhelming for her that she had called up Lisa to come help. Lisa and Milo also had an older brother with two kids of his own and on multiple occasions Claire and Milo had babysat them together. Babysitting and changing diapers were both things Lisa and Milo were exposed to from a young age.
"Alright, hold still pretty mama." Lisa said gripping the tapes of Claire's diaper.
Lisa already had a trio of baby wipes in hand and made quick work of wiping Claire down. She did one quick final tour around Claire's bottom with a fourth wipe and then placed all the used wipes inside the wet diaper.
"Wow, she's a natural" Claire thought watching Lisa's every move.
"Okay little one, lift up for Lisa!" She cooed.
Claire did as she was told, smiling as Lisa rolled the old diaper up and walked it over to the waist basket. It plopped with a thud when it hit the bottom of the trash liner.
"Wow, that was quite the heavy diaper you had on." Lisa laughed as she pulled the front cover of Claire's new diaper into position.
"Don't forget the powder and lotion!" Claire said lifting herself up to a sitting position.
"Hey! You lay back down little miss potty pants!" Lisa commanded as she placed a hand on Claire's chest.
"I'm just adjusting it so that if any of the powder falls off of your bottom, then the open diaper will catch it all!" said Lisa proudly pointing toward Claire's crotch.
"Now lay back down and let me finish changing you! God, are you this difficult with Milo?" Lisa asked pressing Claire back down.
"No, I'm a good girl!" Claire squealed.
The lotion was spread deep into Claire's rash expertly by Lisa who then wasted no time and dusted Claire with powder. Claire stared down at the open diaper and watched as the snow fell down. Lisa was right. The excess powder landed in the diaper and left none to be seen on the table. Lisa securely fastened the new diaper around Claire, gave Claire's diaper a playful slap, and then went to the sink to wash her hands. Claire sat up and inspected the new diaper she was now wrapped in. It felt so good to be in a dry diaper again. This one felt noticeably more comfortable and even more secure than Claire was used to.
"Wow, that was...impressive! I can't believe how quick you were and it still feels so..cozy! What's your secret?" Claire quizzed Lisa as she hopped off the table and smoothed her skirt back down over herself.
"Well, the one thing that I noticed was the way the tapes were stuck down on your old diaper. In the future, you just need to have Milo pull the tapes over and then down, not just straight across the front. Here, let me show you." Lisa said as she dried her hands off with a paper towel.
She walked up to Claire, lifted up her skirt, and proceeded to run her hands over the tapes of the new diaper.
"See.. if you wet a few times, there's gonna be less strain on the tapes. It's an easy mistake to make. Also this way your diapers are held tighter against you and they won't feel like they're gonna fall off."
"Okay, wow. Where'd you learn all that?" Claire said while admiring Lisa's work.
"Well, you remember when I went to planned parenthood to get my IUD switched out?" Lisa asked.
"Yeah.."
"Well, my phone died and the only magazines within reach were parenting ones. They had this article for first time parents that had all these tips for diaper changes you know..get the baby a toy, have a pacifier handy... stuff like that but, those are two of the things I actually picked up on and that's what I applied this time. The only difference here is that you're a much bigger baby." Lisa said hopping up onto the changing table.
"Hilarious, Lisa. Poke fun at me all you want! Now it's your turn to be a big baby!" Claire yelled as she plopped a new diaper against the table next to them.
"Alright, let's see if you can match me for speed and efficiency. Milo is probably pissed that we're taking so long!" Lisa said as she pulled her phone out from her jeans and started aimlessly scrolling as she waited for Claire. Claire began by unbuckling Lisa's belt and then as she tugged down Lisa's jeans, she was immediately greeted by her bush.
"Woah! Lisa, what the hell? No undies? Not even a thong?" Claire laughed.
"Yeah, I decided to go commando today. And yesterday.. it's really been this whole week." She shrugged as Claire tugged her jeans down to her ankles. Claire opened up the new diaper and slid it under Lisa. Claire reached for the powder and just as she was about to sprinkle it over Lisa, Lisa closed her legs.
"Wait, why the powder?" Lisa protested.
"Well, if you end up using the diaper, you're going to wish you'd been powdered." Claire suggested.
"I'm not gonna use it. I'm just trying one on to understand how you enjoy this, Claire!" Lisa said defending herself.
"Well, It's such a long ride back to Hollywood. It'd be a shame if you peed and didn't have any protection from a diaper rash." Claire giggled.
Lisa rolled her eyes.
"Fine, give me the full treatment. Just hurry up so we can get back to Johnny's." Lisa said as she relaxed and let her legs come back down.
Claire puffed out a liberal amount of baby powder into the diaper and smoothed it into Lisa delicately. As she pulled the diaper up to Lisa's belly button, Lisa's phone buzzed.
"Is that Milo?" Claire asked as she taped Lisa up.
"Yeah, your food just arrived. Wow, this feels so strange."
"I know doesn't it?" Claire said as Lisa got up from the table.
"Wow. This is so weird. Oh my god I can hear it crinkle when I walk! I feel like I'm a little baby!" Lisa laughed.
Claire watched as Lisa kicked her jeans all the way off and then proceeded to strut back and forth in nothing but her diaper. She kept pressing it and rubbing her hands across the padding. While Lisa was posing and looking herself over in the mirror, Claire snapped a photo of Lisa with her phone.
"Oh my god. Delete that!"
"No! And if you think about telling anyone about me in diapers, just remember that I have evidence of you wearing a diaper!" Claire giggled.
"Fine..then at least take a picture with me!" Lisa laughed as she pulled Claire over to the mirror.
"Okay but, then let's get going." Claire sighed giving in to Lisa. Lisa and Claire posed in the mirror and individually flashed their diapers. Claire and Lisa laughed as they viewed the pictures on Lisa's screen.
"I'll send them to you later." Claire said as Lisa started pulling her jeans up.
She then refastened her belt and zipped her crotch shut. The jeans she had on were a loose-fitting, slouchy pair and Claire noticed that Lisa had the perfect amount of space to conceal her diaper without any bulge. Claire made a mental note to wear a pair of her own loose-fitting jeans the next time she wore diapers out in public.
"Ready?" Lisa asked as she draped her shirt over her waistline.
Claire did a once over to make sure that her own diaper was hidden.
"Let's rock!" Claire said as she pushed the door open and let in the sunlight.
