The mattress was a small cot mattress I'd purchased at a garage sale a few years earlier. It was bigger than any cot I'd ever seen, but it was smaller than an actual mattress and folded or rolled very conveniently so it could be ported around in the car. I'd pulled a white garbage bag onto each side of it so they met in the middle, and covered it with a Finding Nemo sheet. It was cute, crib-like, and with my little toddler bed-rail it made a rather convenient portable 'crib'.
Craig was laying on it, rocking back and forth slightly, looking adorable in an Attend I'd managed to cinch so tight his package was practically popping through. The rocking was an apparent attempt to do something to focus on something other than having to urinate fiercely; he'd been diapered nearly an hour after his initial request, and I still hadn't given any indication of potty plans.
"So, are you going to - "
Shhhh! I would interrupt, looking at him sternly, and he'd comply. A few minutes later he'd begin to speak and I'd interrupt again:
"Shush!"
It must have been irritating him, because he started scowling. After about ten minutes of uncomfortable (for Craig) silence he got up the nerve to speak again:
"So this isn't that fun for me," he advised. "My bladder is starting to hurt."
I'd been waiting for nearly an hour, watching television as Craig lay facing away from the TV. I figured sooner or later he'd get the hint: you're wearing a diaper, dummy! Just... go!
"I wasn't trying to orchestrate fun," I told him. I leaned over the bed and looked down at him, and he looked up, red-faced. He was clearly embarassed. "I'm here more to keep an eye on you... make sure you behave... make sure - "
"Yeah," he interrupted sarcastically, rolling his eyes. "Like I can misbehave laying on a little-ass mattress..."
Eek! Was that... a curse word??
"What did you just say?" I asked him, raising my voice. Craig blushed even more, and looked surprised; I could see him replaying the conversation in his mind.
"I said it's hard to be bad when you're stuck on a little mattress..." he tried.
"Hmmmm... is that word-for-word?"
He shook his head.
"Did you... swear?" I asked him, suddenly looking serious.
"Yes, sir."
I picked up the paddle and snapped my fingers, pointing to my feet. Craig bolted up into a sitting position, flopped onto his side, and crawled quickly to me, probably trying to be extra obedient to minimize the damage. I picked up the paddle and stood up, and he started wiggling his bottom, almost like a warm-up exercise.
"Would it help if I apologized for my horrible behavior, sir?" he asked. It was cute, and I decided to give him credit. I set the paddle down and pointed to the corner, ordering him to crawl to it. He did, and in seconds was nose-to-the-wall, kneeling, hands at his sides.
Cute.
I let him simmer, laying back down to watch some more television. After about fifteen minutes Craig's hand went up. Like an elemetary school student hoping to answer a question, he raised it and held it in the air, hoping to be called on.
I decided to test his patience. I waited and, after about five minutes, acknowledged him.
"Yes, Craig?"
"Sir," he said, and by his slow-paced speech I could tell he was trying to frame his question in the most respectful manner. "May I ask, sir, how long you intend to keep me in the corner?"
I flicked through a few more channels as I mulled that over. He waited.
After a minute or two of silence, I answered.
"When your diaper's wet, I'll change you and put you to bed. Sound good?"
There was a long pause.
"Wet... with... what?" he wanted to know. I had to laugh.
"What do you think, Craig?" I asked. He groaned and shook his head.
"Pee, sir?"
"Yes," I told him. "You do have to go, right?"
Longer pause.
"Not sure I do now," he said. "I'm not sure I can..."
Forty-five minutes went by, then an hour, and still Craig stayed kneeling in the corner, hands at his sides. He was beginning to tire and a few times began to let his bottom sag, trying to sort of rest it on the back of his legs. I'd quickly correct him, and he'd give me a "yes, sir" and snap back to kneeling position.
About an hour and fifteen minutes into the exercise Craig was beginning to hurt. Everywhere.
"Sir... I am over here trying to wet my diaper. It's hard," he told me.
"Let it soften up, and you'll be able to go," I suggested.
He paused a moment.
"Not my pee-pee, sir," he said. "I mean, going potty in a diaper is hard."
I laughed.
"I don't think I can do it, sir," he said. "Is there any way I can - "
"No," I interrupted. "Just kneel there long enough, you'll have to go."
I was watching a made-for-TV movie by now, and Craig remained facing the wall, rocking back and forth - trying to be discrete. I'd done the corner thing, and knew what he was going through: his knees had become sore after fifteen minutes, and his back was probably sore after thirty. Every inch of him was sore by this point, and he was probably becoming pretty eager to be able to return to the 'crib'.
"Okay, sir," he said, and by the tone of his voice I sensed a bargain coming. "If I go, will you let me take a shower right after?"
I laughed.
"No."
He groaned. Several more minutes went by.
"Sir," he said, "I don't think I can handle having a wet diaper on for very long. I have sensitive skin."
"No you don't," I retorted. And Craig was silent again.
A few more minutes, then...
"So after I wet... how long do I have to stay in the same diaper?"
I laughed again. This was getting ridiculous.
"For a little boy who claimed he had to go potty nearly two hours ago you have a lot of questions, Craig..."
"I know, sir!" he said, becoming agitated. "I've never wet in a diaper before, sir... I don't know what it'll be like!"
I looked at him incredulously.
"You must have been some sort of baby genius!" I said, raising my voice. "Wow, what was the deal? Were you potty trained right out of the womb? Never a wet diaper... wow, you're amazing! My hat's off to you, Craig..."
For the first time for more than an hour Craig turned around. He looked like he wanted to give me the finger, but thought better of it.
"I mean since I outgrew diapers, sir" he said, annoyed.
"Whoa... from over here it doesn't look like you've outgrown them yet," I joked. I could just sense the kid rolling his eyes as he stared into the corner. "It actually looks like you're in one now! What is that around your bum... some new style of Jockeys?"
"Sir, you know what I mean," he said. "I just don't think I can go!"
I chuckled. Give it enough time and we'll see...
After two hours it became clear that I was dealing with a kidney-shy toddler. Craig was clearly uncomfortable, and yet still holding it. I was impressed and annoyed all at the same time. He showed no signs of breaking, and I knew I couldn't keep him in the corner all night.
"Wet your diaper in the next minute, and I'll change you immediately," I offered.
"I can shower?" he asked.
"No, but I'll hit you with a baby wipe so aggressively you'll think you just took a bath," I said.
Silence. I watched Craig clench his asscheeks, and unclench them. Several times. I saw him shift from leg to leg, finally lifting his left leg. He rubbed his rear as he stood, and it was obvious that he was trying to go.
And couldn't.
I finally relented, offering him a shower before his next diaper change. Craig strained some more.
"Maybe I just don't have to go..." he finally offered. I'd come to the same conclusion. I'd begun to feel guilty for keeping him kneeling in the corner, so, after more than two hours, pointed to his mattress and snapped my fingers. He obediently bee-lined for it, and after he was again laying on Nemo I clicked to a cartoon and invited him to join me. We watched, and within a minute he had both hands on his package.
"Sir, pleassssse," he said. "I'll do anything for a trip to the toilet..."
I had to laugh.
"I'm going to hold you to that," I told him. I stood up, leaned over him, and bent over. Grabbing his Attend with both hands I lifted him by it, shaking him and letting the tapes rip until he was naked and his bottom clunked back to the mattress.
"You have one minute, move your ass," I ordered, holding his diaper in the air, and he complied instantly. As he crawled, bottom in the air, I reached down and gave him as a hard a swat as anyone has ever received. H shuddered and continued crawling and, within minutes, had gone and returned, looking much more comfortable.
"Thank you, sir," he said, sounding genuinely grateful. "I just couldn't go," Craig said. "A wet diaper would feel foreign to me, sir... I couldn't handle it."
I knew I had to do something. I pulled out another diaper, picked up Craig's feet, and had him Pampered in thirty seconds...
I snapped my fingers and pointed for Craig to follow me, then walked to the kitchen, my friend crawling on his tummy, hot on my trail. I ordered him to the corner - more kneeling, eek! - and grabbed a measuring cup. I filled it with water, put it in the microwave, and set it for thirty seconds.
"Are you getting a bottle ready, sir?" Craig asked.
"Not quiiiiiite," I said.
"Oh no... I don't like the sound of that," he replied.
Beep, beep, beep...
Craig listened as I walked to the microwave, opened the door, and pulled out the measuring cup. It was warm, but not hot - the perfect temperature.
I walked back across the room, put my thumb between Craig's disposable and his skin, and pulled his diaper away from his ass. I was looking down at one beautiful butt, and I enjoyed the view for a second.
And then I began to pour.
Craig's bottom immediately tightened, and the water which had started travelling down his ass crack took to the absorbant part of the diaper. Within seconds the back of his diaper was soaked.
"Oh... my... God. Sir," Craig said, shaking his head. "Please tell me that's water, sir?"
I laughed.
"Might be." I leaned over and reached down, pulling the front of his diaper out enough to pour. He instinctively tried to shield his penis by retreating, moving his bottom back as far as possible, and I gently put my calf against it, pushing him forward. He finally stopped moving, resigned to the inevitable, and I poured the rest of the cup in the front. Craig was now wearing a soaking wet, warm diaper.
"Not so bad, is it?" I asked. He shook his head.
"As long as that's just water, sir, it's fine."
"Water to start out," I told him. "Not sure what'll be next... pudding, maybe?"
Craig groaned. I snapped my fingers and pointed to the bedroom and he began hauling soggy diapered ass, reporting directly to his crib mattress in moments. I turned him onto his stomach and patted his bum, enjoying the fact that he was now in a very wet, skin-tight diaper.
"And I'm sleeping in a wet diaper, right sir?"
I nodded.
"I don't think I'll be able to sleep," he told me.
"That's fine," I said. "As long as you don't keep me awake, you're good."
Yes, sir.
Craig lay still for a bit, and I finally got up and turned off the light, the light from the television now illuminating the room. It glowed off of Craig's diaper, and I could tell from his body language that he was just as uncomfortable now as he was before.
"At least it's just water," he said. "It could be worse..."
I laughed.
"We'll wait and see if it's worse when you wake up," I told him. Craig fell silent. I tossed him a paci and he obediently put it in his mouth. I watched the television and Craig watched the shadows he'd found he was able to make by holding his hand between the television and the wall. Every once in a while he'd reach down and tug on his diaper, trying to reposition it for comfort. I'd laugh, thinking of him having gone in the toilet; he must have felt relieved, only to find himself in a soaked diaper minutes later.
I finally turned off the television and turned over, putting my head on the pillow and enjoying the silhouette of my friend's diapered form.
"Every time I move my bottom I feel wet," Craig complained, and I laughed. "I'm serious," he reported. "It's like... squishing in between my buttcheeks... it's like, drippy, even."
I said nothing.
"Uhhhh... yea, so I pretty much won't be able to sleep, sir," he finally told me, breaking the silence.
"I will," I answered.
"You're not wearing a wet diaper," he countered. "I'm not going to be falling asleep in this."
"Jeez, Craig," I warned, "I hope you can... otherwise you're in for a long day tomorrow..."
Craig groaned.
"Sir, is there no way possible I can just sleep not in a diaper tonight? I'll even sleep bare-bottom if you want," he offered.
"Shhhhhh!" I interrupted, and Craig sensed that he wouldn't be doing much more talking tonight. "Count sheep if you have to... wet, uncomfortable sheep."
We both laughed, one of us seeming to find it funnier than the other.
"I'm going to count Mustangs," Craig finally told me. "One... two... three ponies... four..."
I leaned over and gave him a hard, hard swat across his rear; he fell silent.
"Five... six... seven... all little diapered boys go to heaven," I said. "Not another word, goodnight Craig."
He waved and mouthed the words good night; it was adorable. We both fell silent, and within minutes I was out.
Craig would tell me the next day that he spent nearly two hours laying in his wet diaper, suffering as it went from warm to lukewarm to cold. "To freezing, sir!" He reported that it was about the same time that he realized he could barely feel the wetness anymore that he began to grow tired.
And he did, eventually, fall asleep.
(Good thing, too, because I had lots of things planned for the next day... and Craig would need his energy...)
