Franny's Choice
By The Flaxx
-Everything burns in the mane of the sun-
The green smooth glass of the coffee cup nestled firmly in the palm of her hand. She sipped it lightly with a slurping sound her lips pursed around the smooth rim of the cup. She figured she should get ready soon, Ellen found it hard to contain her excitement and she wanted to hop in the van right now, but it was too early. She forced herself to finish her coffee. This was gong to be the happiest Saturday she had; had in a long time. She slurped back the coffee greedily and then forced herself to slow down. She had to tell herself that simply drinking the coffee fast was not going to make the time go by faster. Time as usual decided it was going to crawl along. Finally Susan looked down to see that her coffee was almost gone. She sucked back the last drop and checked the clock. "Close enough," she said to herself and then got up from the table to get dressed.
Ellen picked out some sensible clothes, a pair of tan slacks and red shirt with buttons down the front. She checked herself out in the mirror as she did them up. She turned and glanced around the room and her eyes fell on him, the entire time she wished that she had remembered to bring him. He looked like a lonely bear, a sad bear. He sat crooked on the corner of the bed. Ellen picked him up and inhaled deeply. Her scent seemed to emanate from his soft fur. Franny was coming home today; she felt a stir of emotions pass through her body. Most of all she just wanted her muffin back. She had been gone two whole weeks and it made Ellen feel bleak and barren inside. She placed Puffy Von Pringle neatly on Franny’s pillow. Ellen grabbed the keys to the van and left for the bus stop.
The air smelled of diesel fuel as Ellen pulled up and turned off the engine. She looked down at her watch. Franny’s bus was due in a couple minutes. She unbuckled the seat belt and went inside. The terminal of the bus stop was quite busy people were coming and going, talking and sitting. "I thought you would get it there by now." An old woman said in a crabby voice into a telephone. Ellen passed her by. She went to the end of the building where a row of windows looked out to the parking spaces for the bus. Ellen folded her arms across her chest and waited nervously for the bus to pull in. She smiled as she thought how the feeling she had now reminded her of the first time Franny and her had gone out on a proper date. Ellen took a deep breath as she saw the bus pull in; she didn’t want to let it out till she saw Franny get off the bus. She had talked to Franny on the phone a couple of times when she was visiting her parents. Every time she called Franny’s father answered and he didn’t seem too happy to hear Ellen’s voice, she avoided calling as much as possible.
People started clamouring down the steps of the bus. Everyone from the bus terminal started to run outside to greet them. Ellen pushed the door open and went outside to wait for her to get off. She stood in a dried oil stain on the cement and craned her neck looking over the crowd. She worried for a moment if she’d even be able to see her in this chaos of people coming and going, Franny was so tiny. She recognized the shoes first off. She remembered her and Franny had bought them before she had gone home to visit. They were flat soled black pumps, and they had a daisy pattern on the toe. It was about all she could see of Franny because a man the size of the Chrysler Building was standing in front of her. Ellen called out "Franny!" right at that moment the man stepped aside. Their eyes met and locked from across the busy lot. Franny’s dark eyes seemed to say, "Thank God you’re here, I need you." They welled up with tears and her lips trembled. Ellen felt her heart crack as tears spilled down her face. Franny’s tiny hand clutched a paper bag tightly as she started to jog towards Ellen. She was full out crying by the time she reached her. "Oh my god, I missed you so much!!" Franny sobbed as she hugged Ellen tightly. Ellen picked her up off the ground and swung around. Franny’s legs dangled limply as she buried her face in Ellen’s soft hair. "Don’t ever leave again," Ellen gasped choking back tears, "I swear I’ll die if you leave me again." Ellen sat her down on her feet again and pushed her back so she could look into her face. She laughed through her tears as she looked at Franny. "Did you have a good time?" She asked. Franny looked at her for a moment and Ellen watched a tear drip off the end of her tiny nose. "Not really," She said as if she were going to cry again. Ellen hugged her tightly "It’s ok now, you’re here your home with me."
They waited together outside as they unloaded the luggage off the bus. Franny’s bag was one of the last ones taken off. Ellen went over and grabbed it by the handle. She wheeled it behind them as they went back through the door of the terminal. "What’s in the bag muffin?" Ellen asked noticing Franny still clutching it tightly she thought Franny’s mom might have packed her a lunch for the bus. Franny smiled up at her, and Ellen suddenly felt whole again. "I’ll show you in the van," She said in an excited tone as if she was guarding the secrets of King Tutenkahmen’s tomb. They threw her old suitcase in the back and Ellen unlocked the doors. "How was the bus ride anyway?" She asked getting in and turning to Franny. "It was so boring!" Franny slapped her thigh as if she had just remembered the horror of it all. "It was only two hours pumpkin," Ellen laughed. Franny dug at the fabric on the side of the door a little and looked sheepish. "Yeah I know." She said quietly. Ellen figured she had probably let little Franny ride a part of the ways and found it hard to keep herself occupied. She was willing to bet Franny’s panties were a little damp too. "So what’s in the bag?" Ellen nodded at it. Franny’s face beamed wide in a smile and she handed it over to her. Ellen took the bag and opened it up. She saw a big muffin inside and she pulled it out. "I made it for you!" Franny said with a big smile. She shrugged, "Well I made a whole swack of them last night with my mom actually." Ellen smiled, "Thank you." She said. Ellen noticed the empty crumb encrusted paper of what had been another muffin in the bottom of the bag. She looked up at Franny. Franny noticed her looking at it and blushed a little. "I was hungry." She said and then looked out the passenger window. Ellen placed her hand on the back of Franny’s head and stroked her hair a little. "I’m glad your home." She whispered. Franny turned to her and leaned forward closing her eyes. They mingled in a wet moist kiss for a moment. Ellen turned and started up the van.
The radio came on; an announcer began rattling off the top stories of the day as the van pulled out of the parking lot.
"….In other news the convenience store robberies continue. The seventh store in a string of robberies occurred last night at a combination gas station convenience store. The assailant is described as being in her mid to late 20’s with short black hair. She’s about 5 foot 5 inches tall and around 120lbs." The announcer went on to describe the details of the robbery including the use of a handgun. He paused and chuckled for a moment. "On a lighter side of this story the young lady has been described as very nervous and witnesses have claimed that she appeared to have wet her pants before coming in to the store.’ The announcer laughed again, "Maybe she should grab a pack of diapers for her self-while she’s in the store. Back to you Bobby," Another announcer came on, "Thanks Tony well were expecting highs into the upper 60’s today as the warm weather continues into September….."
"So are you ready to back to school?" Ellen asked as the van turned off the highway and headed into suburbia. Franny nodded and shrugged, "I suppose at least I got the money for school, it’s not like I didn’t work for it this summer." Franny took a job flipping hamburgers in a fast food joint over the summer. She had saved up almost four thousand dollars. Ellen was very proud of her for doing it. She often gave Franny baths in the evening when she came home all sweaty and tired from the kitchen. They would make out in the bathroom as she washed all the grease and sweat from her body. "Did you hire a replacement for the bookstore?" Franny asked. Ellen’s bookstore was located in a strip mall. It had been quite profitable in it’s day. Unfortunately a major bookstore chain had opened in a proper shopping mall near by, it had cut down on their profits drastically. To salvage some Ellen had changed the theme of the bookstore to be speciality books that the bigger chains didn’t carry. Books on the wicken religion now dawned the shelves where Harlequin Romances once sat. Other books included a large section on lesbian issues and books written by lesbians, Cooking and self help books were exchanged for books on astrology and UFO’s. Ellen was sad about it for a long time she felt like she had become another hoochie mama dyke peddling alternative lifestyles all the lost souls. ‘The Front Page’ would go on at least. As a result she had to layoff Mrs. Cranston, that hurt Ellen worst of all. June Cranston had been her one and only employee since the beginning she hated to let her go. Unfortunately June was in her 60’s and married to a man, Ellen just couldn’t keep her around knowing the type of material that would be in the store she needed someone a little younger and fresher looking someone with an idea about the type of materials she now sold.
"Are they still mad?" Ellen asked looking at Franny in a serious way. She had wanted to ask her for a long time now; she had hoped Franny would bring it up first. Franny was quiet, and the shuffled her feet against the floor mat of the car. "They’re still going to give me money for school," She sighed, "I don’t know they seem so distant now," Franny’s lip trembled for a moment. "When I hugged my mom when I first got back she wouldn’t even hold me close like she used to." Ellen could see tears in her eyes. Franny shook her head, "She seemed fine towards the end though, and she told me to just be happy. My father I don’t think he really understands or wants to either. You know what he said to me?" Franny looked at her accusingly as if Ellen had done something wrong. "He told me he I should have been a boy, that he should have had a son." Ellen felt her heart in her throat.
The van pulled in to the driveway of the house. The tires popped and crackled against the gravel of the driveway. Franny seemed to perk up instantly. "I’m home!" She smiled a big smile, "I’m finally home!!" Ellen smiled gently at her, "Yes pumpkin your home finally." She placed a hand lightly against Franny’s face and they lingered again in a kiss. Franny pulled away and looked into Ellen’s eyes. "I won’t leave again." She looked serious and sad all at once and Ellen pulled her forward in an embrace.
They unloaded Franny’s bag from the back of the van and went inside the house. Franny stopped inside the doorway and looked about with her big dark eyes. Ellen came up behind her and stopped. "It’s so nice to be home." She sighed lightly as she stepped inside. Franny and Ellen left her suitcase by the door and climbed the small flight of stairs to the living room. Ellen glanced back at the suitcase wondering what kind of laundry waited to be washed inside. She supposed Franny would have been careful while at her parents place so as not to tip them off to her baby side. She hoped Franny hadn’t had too much time alone while visiting.
She almost sprinted down the hall towards the bedroom; Ellen saw a blur of shirt fly by. Franny wanted to see Puffy. She had cursed herself every night for not bringing him. Franny flew around the corner and into the bedroom and stopped when she saw him sitting on the pillow. She let out an excited squeal and hopped on the bed just as Ellen came in behind her. "PUFFY!!" she shouted grabbing him tightly. "Oh Puffy." She sat cross-legged on the bed hugging Puffy and pushing her face against his soft fur. Ellen smiled. "He missed you kiddo," Franny’s face peeked around the head of the bear. "I missed Puffy too," She said. Franny put her thumb in her mouth and sat looking complacent on the bed. Ellen stared at her for a moment. She knew Franny was probably aching to slip into baby mode but she wanted her to be big Franny for just a little while longer. She hadn’t seen either Franny for so long. Ellen cocked her hip to the side and placed a hand on it. "Are you going to help me unpack your suit case?" She asked. Franny shrugged and looked up at her. "Ok Ellen I love unpacking suit cases." Ellen said pretending to be Franny. Franny smiled up at her around her thumb.
They lugged the bag up the stairs and it bumped against everyone as they pulled it up. "What the hell is in here anyway, did you bring your parents home with you?" Ellen asked with a strained looked on her face. Franny giggled and her face lit up with happiness. Franny’s tiny taught body stepped around the suitcase and grabbed hold of the long handle sticking out of the top. She pulled it down the hallway looking about as Ellen stood at the top of the stairs out of breath and wiping the sweat off her forehead. Ellen shook her head and followed Franny down the hall. When she got into the bedroom She saw the suitcase was laying flat on the bed. She wondered for a moment how Franny was actually able to lift it up on to the bed herself. Franny sat crossed legged in front of it holding Puffy in her arms. Ellen went over and unzipped the suitcase. When the zipper was pulled back Ellen flipped the top open. The inside of the suitcase looked like a cyclone had torn the roof off a clothing store. There were articles of clothes twisted and balled up shoved everywhere there was an ounce of space. Ellen’s mouth dropped open and she looked at Franny. Franny looked back over top of her raised eyebrows as if to ask what was so shocking. "Franny…." Ellen paused when she saw the only neatly cared for thing in the entire suitcase. It was a pair of socks that were nicely balled up and placed delicately in the corner. She picked them up and held them up for Franny to see. "Nice to see your taking such care of your socks muffin." Franny started to giggle again. "Those are four pairs of socks!" She laughed harder. Ellen turned the ball inside out and indeed discovered four pairs of socks stuffed inside one unmatched sock. "What happened to this one’s mate then?" Ellen asked. Franny shrugged as if to say, "You know, sometimes you loose one." Ellen dragged the clothes hamper over to the bed and threw the socks in.
"How am I supposed to tell what’s dirty and what’s not?" Ellen asked. Franny shrugged, "It’s all dirty I was gone for two weeks how much clothing do you think I have?" The argument made sense to Ellen so she didn’t say anymore. Ellen came across a plastic bag that was tied up. She lifted it out of the suitcase. "What’s in here?" she asked. "Panties," Franny said. Ellen nodded, "Do I want to look in her or save that horror for laundry day?" Franny looked a little embarrassed and pushed her face against Puffy’s head. "I didn’t think so." Ellen said as she untied the bag and just dumped all of its contents into the laundry basket. Ellen went to work grabbing handfuls of clothes and throwing them into the laundry basket, when she came across a small box in the bottom of the suitcase. It was white and had a gold ribbon on top. She looked at Franny who was smiling as she sat with Puffy. She looked quiet excited because her face was all flushed and her eyes sparkled. Ellen picked it up lightly and held it up. "For me?" Ellen asked. Franny squealed, "Yes!" Ellen laughed a bit; Franny was so funny when she was excited.
Ellen pulled the ribbon off the sides of the box and lifted the lid. Sitting in the middle of a black satin little pillow was a locket. It was oval in shape and had a rose engraved on the front. Ellen delicately tucked her finger underneath and lifted it. She found the tiny clasp on the side and flipped it open to see a picture of Franny inside. Her mouth fell open, she could feel tears welling up in her eyes as well. "Oh pumpkin, you can’t afford this." Franny smiled at her, "Yes I can, I told you my dad is going to cover my next semester, I made more than enough this summer to buy it. Do you like it?" She asked throwing Puffy down and getting off the bed. Franny took it out of the box, and put it around Ellen’s neck. She closed the lobster clasp on the back and stepped around to see what it looked like on her. "Oh Ellen it looks so pretty on you!!" She gasped. Ellen put her hand up to her throat to touch it as she turned to the mirror. She felt tears rolling down her cheeks as she looked at herself in the mirror. Franny rested the side of her face against Ellen’s shoulder as they looked at it together in the mirror. Ellen turned to her sniffling and wrapped her arms around Franny squeezing her tightly. "Oh thank you so much Franny, it’s so beautiful!" Franny felt tears in her eyes now as she hugged Ellen back. "I love you muffin." Ellen said in a whisper trying to stop the flow of tears. "I love you too." Franny said patting her on the back.
They put the suitcase away in the closet together. Franny turned and smiled, "What do you want to do now?" She asked. "Uhm I think I’m going to eat my muffin now." Ellen said. Franny tried to remember where she sat put the muffin she had brought home for Ellen. She remembered putting the paper bag on the table in the living room. "It’s in the living room," she said in an honest voice. Ellen smiled at her, "no it’s not my muffin is right here." Ellen said coming over to Franny. Franny squealed again and tried to leap on the bed but Ellen caught her. She threw her down and got on the bed. Ellen pushed her face against Franny’s tummy and tickled her with her mouth. Franny laughed until her face turned red and she arched her back to try and escape. "Oh no you don’t I got you now!" Ellen said. Ellen put both her hands into Franny’s hips and held them down as she pushed her face into the crotch of Franny’s pants. She could smell the strong smell of pee and she pulled her face up and looked down at Franny. "Someone peed their pants." She said teasing her. Franny looked embarrassed and twirled her hair around the tip of her finger a bit. Ellen turned Franny over and gave her a smack on the bottom. "You’re not the big girl I thought you were." Franny protested, "I am a big girl." She looked pouty for a moment and stuck out her bottom lip. "Are you? Lets just see about that." Ellen said reaching her hand around to unbotton the Franny’s pants. She pulled them down roughly. The pants gathered around her calf muscles and Ellen pulled at the end of the pant legs until they came over the end of her feet. Franny laughed and pretended she didn’t want her too. Ellen threw the pants on the end of the bed, and looked down at Franny’s panties. They were white cotton briefs with bubble gum pink fringe around the waist and legs. Ellen grabbed hold of the waistband in the back and pulled it up as if she were going to give Franny a wedgie. She noticed the faint yellow half moon in the crotch. It stopped right where her bum began. Ellen pulled the waistband back and let it snap against Franny’s skin. "Pissy," She stated and then tickled Franny’s side. Ellen pulled the panties down quickly and tossed them to the end of the bed with her pants. She stared down at Franny’s two round bum cheeks. Ellen leaned forward and kissed them inhaling the scent of Franny’s vagina and ass. "Mmm my baby smells good." She said planting another kiss on Franny’s ass cheek. Franny rolled over onto her back and looked up at Ellen with lust in her eyes. She put her pinkie finger to the corner of the mouth and looked at her. Franny’s eyes were like fire. Ellen crawled over top of her and planted kiss on her lips this time. Franny’s hand explored the crack of Ellen’s ass on top of her pants. Franny reached down and unbuttoned Ellen’s slacks and pulled them down. She reached a hand inside the crotch of Ellen’s panties and found the moist mat of her pubic hair. Ellen didn’t think she could stand it anymore and she reached down to rub the fleshy pink labia of Franny’s vagina. "So gooey and ready honey," She commented as she rubbed in little circles. Franny whined and closed her eyes tight. She rubbed Ellen inside her panties as well. They got each other off quickly and then lay together on the bed for a while. They both knew it was only round one in their love making session for today.
"Are you hungry pumpkin?" Ellen asked stroking Franny’s arm. "A little, Friendly Bears are going to come on soon." She said. Ellen smirked; somehow she was looking forward to watching Friendly Bears today. Franny got off the bed and put on a fresh a pair of panties. These ones were orange and had a green trim. They were the ones she usually wore on Halloween. Ellen chuckled; "Down to your holiday undies hey?" Franny shrugged and picked up Puffy off the bed where she went to curl up on the couch to watch her program. Ellen lay on the bed for a moment listening to the Friendly Bears theme. Everything seemed normal again, she breathed a sigh of relief.
As she got up to go make something for her and Franny to eat she paused to look at her locket in the mirror. When she turned it over she saw writing scribed on the back. Ellen recognized the verse right away. It was a line from the poem Franny had written for her when they had gotten back from the Baby Party at lake Wamatta. ‘Everything burns in the mane of the sun.’ Ellen smiled, it certainly did.
‘being so small they were quite afraid; that they might
get stepped on or ants would invade
In need of some comfort they looked to the tree
Who was as big as was big that ever could be’
"How does hot dogs sound?" Ellen asked peeking into the living room as Franny sat on the couch in her bright orange panties and t-shirt. Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth and looked up at Ellen as she hugged Puffy. "Good," She said with a shrug and turned back to the TV. Tup Flop was singing a verse about his bicycle tires. Ellen watched as he danced about kicking his feet in the air. Ellen watched Franny for a few moments just enjoying the simple fact that she could watch her. She noticed Franny had her hand down her panties and was holding herself as she sat there. Usually Ellen would have told her to stop doing that because it bothered her, but today she just let it go.
By the time the hot dogs were ready Friendly Bears was over. Franny got off the couch and went into the kitchen to take a seat at the table. "How were Friendly Bears," Ellen asked putting a plate down in front of Franny. Franny shrugged, "Good, I’d seen that one before." She said as she picked up the saltshaker off the table and played with it in her hands. Ellen took it from her and sat it back down in it’s place. "You should go wash your hands before eating." Ellen mentioned thinking of how she had her hands down her panties. Franny looked up at her with a pouty expression. "Go and hurry back then," Ellen said. Franny got up and stomped off to the washroom. Ellen knew she was probably tired and cranky from the trip. She figured Franny could use a good nap after she ate. When Franny got back she took a seat at the table Ellen had put a couple hot dogs down on the plate and some buns. Franny looked up from her plate to see if there was any relish. "There’s No Relish!!" she whined. Ellen looked up at her with a stern look. "There is relish! I just forgot to take it out." She got up and went over to the fridge and took out the relish and placed it in front of Franny. Ellen started fixing her self a hot dog. "I know this girl who’s a crabby pants. She’s going to lay down after she has a hot dog." Ellen said without looking at Franny. Franny just stuck out her bottom lip and picked up her hot dog. She hadn’t slept at all the last night, she was far too excited to be coming home. Ellen thought she might take a nap as well, she hadn’t slept much last night either.
When they were done eating Ellen and Franny cleared off the table and cleaned up the kitchen a bit. Franny felt exhausted, she did want to go lay down. "Alright Missy! Off to the bed room with you!" Ellen said giving her a swat on the bum. Franny jumped a little bit and went to get Puffy off the couch. Franny trotted off to the bedroom with Ellen walking behind. She stopped off at the bathroom on her way and Ellen leaned inside the doorframe. She watched as Franny pulled down her panties and sat on the toilet still holding Puffy in her lap. Ellen smiled at her. Ellen heard pee splashing in the toilet with a loud hissing sound. Franny buried her face in Puffy fur again and peeked at Ellen over the top of his head. "Hmmm, baby’s having a pee huh?" Ellen teased her. Franny stuck out her lip and pretended to be offended that Ellen was watching her. Ellen tilted her head down slightly and raised her eyebrows as if to say, "Yeah? You think you’re so lady like?" Franny stuck her nose in the air as if to confirm that she was every bit the princess she claimed to be. Ellen continued to watch and Franny shot her a mischievous grin and then slowly spread her legs open like Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct. Ellen laughed, and Franny giggled too. "You’re such a ham," Ellen said. Franny wiped herself and stood up. She flushed the toilet and pulled up her bright orange panties. "Come on pumpkin pants, to bed with you!" Ellen grinned. Franny passed Ellen in the door way and shot a snitty little glare at her. "Hmm what’s that for?" Ellen asked following close behind her. Franny smiled secretly to herself and hopped on the bed. She put Puffy down beside her and looked up at Ellen innocently. "Aren’t you Little Miss Perfect this afternoon." Ellen said pulling down her slacks. Franny gave her a wicked look and hooked her thumbs inside the waistband of her panties. She pulled the waistband away from her flat tummy and peered down inside and then smiled at Ellen. "See anything interesting in there?" Ellen asked as she unhooked her bra. "Actually the less I know about what’s in your panties the better," Ellen teased. "At least my panties weren’t hand made on a loom." Franny laughed. Ellen’s mouth dropped open, "I’m not that old you little bitch." Ellen chuckled and threw her bra at Franny.
Ellen stepped onto the bed and walked across the mattress. She stood in front of Franny and looked down at her. Franny looked up with a smile and stuck her thumb in her mouth. She twirled her black hair around the tip of her index finger as her big dark eyes peered up at Ellen towering above her. Ellen lifted a foot a few inches off the mattress and poked her toe into Franny side to give her a little tickle. Franny squealed and rolled over. "Don’t!" she giggled holding both hands up. "Don’t what?" Ellen asked tilting her head to the side in a self righteous way. "Don’t tickle me!!" Franny said. She was more laughing than speaking. "No? Why not?" Ellen asked taking a step forward. Franny screeched, and hopped off the bed. She stood beside it laughing excitedly. Ellen stared at her for a moment not saying a word; just looking at her. She could feel Franny’s excitement building inside of her like a volcano. Ellen jerked her body really quickly and Franny screeched again and started running out of the bedroom laughing her head off as she did. Ellen was laughing too as she stepped off the bed onto the floor. Ellen stood quietly waiting for Franny to come back in the room but she never did. "Where are you?" Ellen called with a puzzled look on her face. There was silence for a moment and then Franny said, "I’m in the hallway." Ellen laughed, "Well come back in." "No," Franny said sounding excited again, "Your going to get me if I do." She was laughing again. Ellen sighed and lay down on the bed, "No I won’t just come in." She said folding her arms behind her head. Franny peeked around the corner and then slowly came back in. She watched Ellen carefully to make sure she wasn’t going to leap up suddenly. When she felt safe enough she sat down on the end of the bed facing Ellen.
"You ready for a nap?" Ellen asked looking down at Franny. She could see Franny had switched over to baby mode as she sat there. "What’s wrong with you did you pee your panties or something?" Ellen asked looking serious for a moment. Franny grabbed Puffy’s leg and pulled him across the bed onto her lap. She shook her head and looked sheepish for a moment. "I suppose you need some attention then huh?" Ellen sighed. She pretended like it was a chore just to tease Franny but really she didn’t mind. Franny looked up at her with big sad eyes as if to say "Please?" Ellen smiled, "OK honey get your things and you can have some time if you want." Franny looked happy and got off the bed to go to the closet. She pulled open the sliding door of the closet and bent down on the floor to where her baby items were. She took out her cloth diaper they had bought from Johnny at lake Wamatta and then fished around for her plastic pants. "You’d better not have to poop." Ellen said in a stern voice from behind her. "I’m not washing that if you do." Franny turned around and looked at her as if she had popped her balloon with a pin. "I’m just telling you," Ellen said. Franny turned back to the closet again and pulled out her bottle as well, she held it up for Ellen "Dis?" she asked in her best baby voice as she raised her eyebrows. Ellen nodded, "You can have some juice in it if you want." Franny smiled and started digging through the closet again. She pulled out her powder and some baby lotion and brought everything over to the bed. She set it all down and looked to Ellen to make a move. Ellen sat up and held her arms out, "Come here you." She said with a smile and Franny got on to the bed and crawled over.
Franny lay down on the back with her head resting on Puffy’s tummy. Ellen got up and sat down at the end of her feet. Franny spread her legs a bit and Ellen got up on her knees and leaned over to pull her panties off. She grabbed the waistband on either side of her hip and pulled. Franny lifted her bum off the bed a little to allow them to slide off. She sat her naked bum back down on the bed and put her thumb in her mouth. Ellen looked into her eyes from between Franny’s knees. "I thought we were going to take a nap?" Ellen said holding up Franny’s underpants and shaking them a little till they were untangled. She placed them on the bed beside her and picked up the cloth diaper. Franny lifted her bum once again and Ellen slid the diaper underneath her. Franny’s face broke out in a wide smile as she felt the diaper against her bum. She wiggled her hips a little. Ellen smiled, "Feels nice on the bum hey?" She said softly as she watched Franny. Ellen picked up the lotion and squirted some into the palm of her hand. "This is going to feel nice too." She said rubbing it in to her palm a little with the tips of her fingers. The palm of Ellen’s hand came down on to the fleshy mound of Franny’s labia. Ellen stared into Franny’s eyes as she rubbed her palm in slow circles over Franny’s soft pink flesh. "There’s my baby’s pussy." Ellen said in a soft whisper, her gaze still locked on Franny’s. Ellen put her face slowly down in between Franny’s legs and then gently kissed each thigh. She moved her hand downward and worked some lotion into Franny’s bum crack. "Mmm, baby has such a nice ass and pussy," Ellen said lovingly. Franny could feel herself becoming sensitive and hot. She closed her eyes and sucked on her thumb. This was paradise. Ellen took the powder and sprinkled it on the diaper and then all over Franny. She pulled the soft diaper up between Franny’s legs and pinned it in place. Then she picked up the plastic pants, "Lift your bum honey." Ellen said as she slid the pants over Franny’s feet and then up her legs. When they were pulled all the way Franny dropped her bum on to the bed again and rolled over on to her tummy. She squeezed her thighs together tightly to feel the soft diaper rub against her pussy. She felt a jolt of electricity run through her body as the diaper caressed her in all the right places. Ellen picked up her bottle and left the bedroom.
In the kitchen she filled the bottle with peach juice and brought it back for Franny to have. Franny sat up on the bed as she came in and held both hands out for the bottle. Ellen gave it to her and patted her on the head. "There you go muffin." She said and laid down on the bed again. Franny stuck the bottle in her mouth and sucked on it happily as she lay down beside Ellen. "I’m going to take a nap now pumpkin." Ellen said patting her hand against the bum of Franny’s plastic pants. "Do you want to get cuddly with me and take a nap too?" Ellen asked. Franny nodded that she did. Ellen and Franny got under the covers and snuggled up with one another. Franny sucked on her bottle as Ellen hummed a soft repetitive tune. It wasn’t long before Franny found herself getting sleepy. Her eyes began to get heavy and close. Before she knew it she was fast asleep. Ellen felt a drip of liquid on her arm and looked down to see the bottle had slipped out of Franny’s mouth as she fell asleep. She smiled at her and took the bottle from her tiny limp hand and placed it on the table beside the bed. Ellen was sleeping moments later herself.
Said the tree to the shoots with a chuckle and huff
"I am as big as big is with bark that is tough"
"Don’t be afraid little shoots that grew new,"
"We all start off small. I was once like you."
When Ellen opened her eyes Franny was still sleeping. She had rolled over in her sleep and now was facing the other way. She still had Puffy tucked tightly under her arm though. Ellen quietly slipped out of bed and went to the kitchen. It was almost 6:00pm, and she thought that she should probably wake Franny up soon otherwise she wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight again. It was getting kind of late to make something for supper and so Ellen went over to the phone. She ran her finger down as looked through the list on the speed dial. Finally she found the number for World Of Pizza, it was number six. She pressed it and ordered a large Hawaiian. Ellen hung up and went back into the bedroom. She crept quietly over to Franny’s side of the bed and shook her gently. "Sweetheart, wake up." She whispered. Franny’s eyes opened slowly. When they were fully open she stared up at Ellen with her thumb in her mouth. "Time to wake up honey." Ellen said again and sat down on the edge of the bed. She brushed her fingers through Franny’s hair and smiled down at her. "Did you have a good sleep muffin?" She asked. Franny pulled the thumb out of her mouth with a wet smacking noise. Franny yawned a little and rubbed the side of her face against Puffy. "Yes," She said quietly, her voice still sounded sleepy. "I ordered a pizza for us." Ellen said thinking of how Franny liked pizza. "What kind?" Franny asked her eyes sparkling now. "Hawaiian," She said rubbing her hand against Franny’s shoulder. Franny began to sit up, "I like Hawaiian," she said rubbing her eyes. "I know honey, that’s why I ordered it." Ellen smiled. Franny saw her bottle sitting over on the night table and she rolled over and grabbed it. As she did the blankets came off her a little and Ellen took a quick peek at her bottom to see if she was wet. One thing she liked about the plastic pants and cloth diaper was that it was pretty easy to see if it needed to be changed. Franny was still dry, Ellen thought she would be Franny rarely wet the bed. She had a couple times though. One of those times Ellen was pretty sure she had done it on purpose. She never questioned Franny about though. Franny stuck the bottle in her mouth with two hands and smiled at Ellen. "Thirsty girl huh?" Ellen said rubbing her back a little as Franny sucked on her bottle. "You ready to get up now?" Ellen asked. Franny nodded her head and kicked off the blankets with her feet.
Franny continued to suck delicately on the bottle as she sat on the couch waiting for the pizza to arrive. The rubber nipple was pressed tightly against the roof of her mouth; held in place by her tongue. It felt springy and slippery in her mouth and she pressed on it with her tongue and sucked a bit, the juice caressed her taste buds with tangy sweetness as she peered out the picture window of the living room. A few clouds passed by in the blueness of the sky. She held the bottle with one hand and her knuckles were turning a little white from her grip on the bottle. She held her other hand against the crotch of the plastic pants. She was going to have an accident soon. Franny stood up for a moment and took a quick look around to check for Ellen. When she didn’t see her she squatted down beside the couch and closed her eyes. Franny squeezed the base of the nipple in her lips and relaxed her bladder. It came in a single spurt, and then her muscles contracted involuntarily and cut off the flow. She closed her eyes and relaxed again, this time the flow continued with out stopping. It felt almost hot as the flannel and cotton diaper sopped up the pee. The crotch of the diaper became heavy and warm. Her pee was dark yellow, the result of minerals that had collected in her bladder as she slept. She opened her mouth just slightly to allow a sigh to pass by the nipple of her bottle. She pressed harder on the crotch of the diaper with the other hand and felt the plastic pants press into the soggy fabric of the diaper. The heat of her own urine engulfed her vagina in a teasing, sensual embrace. Franny closed her legs a little to squeeze the heavy soaking crotch against her pussy and she felt her pee soaking into the ass of the diaper now as well. Her entire privates felt surrounded by warmth of her pee. The pee began to slow and then just a few small spurts were ejected in a weak bubbling flow. Franny slowly stood up. The diaper felt heavy and she could feel it trying to pull away from her bum but the plastic pants prevented it. She set her bottle down on the coffee table gently and tugged up the plastic pants a little.
"What were you doing?" Ellen asked coming in from the kitchen. Franny looked panicked for a moment, "nuffin," she said and picked up her bottle again and placed it in her mouth. Ellen looked at her for a moment, "You look pretty guilty for someone who’s doing nothing." Franny put her head down a little but kept her eyes glued to Ellen as she sucked innocently on her bottle holding it with both hands. Ellen folded her arms and leaned against the wall. "I’m willing to bet two scoops of ice cream that you have a wet bum." Franny looked at her, she knew it was a bet she couldn’t win, but she still wanted to have her ice cream though. Her eyes moved about the room and then went back to Ellen. "My joose spilled." She said. Ellen laughed, "Right in your pants right?" Franny nodded and pulled the bottle from her lips. "Well then I guess we should change you, we can’t have you eating pizza with juice on your bum can we?" "What about my ice cream?" Franny asked. "You can have it after supper," Ellen said as she came over and took Franny’s hand to drag her into the bedroom.
Franny lay down on the bed and watched Ellen move about the room. "So you want to wear some big girl pants so we can have dinner together?" Ellen grabbed the baby wipes and came over to the bed. Franny didn’t want to grow up yet but she knew that Ellen probably did want to have dinner with big Franny tonight. Franny nodded and smiled, "OK" She saw a smile break out on Ellen’s face like sunshine. Ellen pulled down the plastic pants and set them aside. She started to undo the pins on the diaper next. "Your sure a big wet girl." Ellen said. Franny tried to reach down and squeeze the crotch of the diaper with her hand but Ellen stopped her. The soggy diaper was completely soaked and very yellow. "Quite a pee you had there hey honey?" Ellen said in a soothing voice as she pulled the diaper out from under her. She pulled a few wipes out of the container and wiped Franny up quickly. "We have to hurry and change your bum honey the pizza’s going to be here soon." Ellen said turning her head to glance back at the door of the bedroom. When she was clean and Ellen bent down and planted a light kiss on Franny’s pussy. "Hmm there’s my clean girl." She smiled brightly and grabbed the bright orange panties off the end of the bed. Franny lifted her legs and Ellen put them on her and pulled them up. Ellen grabbed the plastic pants and wet diaper and took them into the bathroom were she put them in the tub to be washed out later on. Franny went to the dresser for some pants. She found some old black jeans that she rarely wore anymore and slipped them on. "I’ll do some laundry tomorrow," Ellen said standing in the door of the bedroom. "I can do it while you’re at work." Franny said pulling her shirt down. She was happy she didn’t have to go to work anymore. She hated working in the kitchen of the burger joint. Ellen smiled, "Thanks pumpkin that’s nice of you." Franny smiled at her and turned to fix her hair in the mirror a little. She wished for a moment she could find her barrettes to put in her hair but she hadn’t seen them in months. She thought she should pick up some next time they were shopping. There was a knock at the door then and Ellen hurried down the hall to answer it.
Franny heard Ellen speaking with someone as she stood brushing her hair in the mirror. When she heard the front door close she left the bedroom and headed for the kitchen. They sat down at the table with some plates and the pizza box. Ellen lifted the lid of the box, and the usual "Oohs," and "Ahh’s" ensued as they looked at the pizza. Pizza and fireworks were two things that always got the same reaction. Franny giggled when she thought about it. Ellen smiled at her "Looks good hey?" she grabbed a slice and tossed it on to her plate and then pushed the box over to Franny. "Careful honey it’s hot." She said. Franny grabbed a slice by the ridge of crust on the edge and put it on her plate. They were silent for a while as they savoured the taste of the pizza. Franny swallowed her mouthful and took a sip of her milk. "So you never told me about who you hired for the book store." Franny said put her cup down. Ellen shrugged, "Her name’s Cassidy she’s 25, and has lots of experience in retail." Ellen took a bite of her pizza and chewed it quickly. She swallowed it just as quick and then downed some milk to wash it down. "She’s kind of a flake actually, but she fits the mood in the store now." Franny felt sad for a moment. "That’s not true," She said patting Ellen on the hand. "There’s nothing flaky about the store." Ellen looked at her for a moment and put down her pizza and wiped her mouth. "I sent back all the books on human anatomy to the wholesaler and replaced them with books about little green men from Mars." Ellen chuckled and sat back in her chair, "There’s actually a book in my store that’s called. ‘Great Lesbian Witches of the 1800’s’ If that’s not flaky, then what is?" Franny picked up her pizza and stared at it for a moment. She cocked her head to the side and raised one eyebrow. "Bill Gates would be just as happy today if he made his fortune selling fish entrails. A business is a business, you can work hard to make it a success or believe that your selling a half assed product and fail at it; it’s really up to you." Franny took a bite of her pizza and chewed it up. Ellen was stunned. Her mouth hung open for a second, Franny was right, she hadn’t seen the essence of her situation in the same light until now. She smiled at Franny for a moment. "No wonder you’re the one going to school." She said. Franny shrugged and picked up another piece of pizza.
They cleared up the dinner dishes and went to relax in the living room. Ellen picked up a magazine and started reading it as Franny grabbed the remote and turned on the TV. She found a movie called ‘Mr.Boots and the Peach Parade.’ It had been on for about twenty minutes or so and Franny concentrated hard on trying to figure out what was going on. She had just pieced together the notion that Mr.Boots was the mayor of the town and he was trying to stop the Peach Parade from happening this year, when she felt Ellen sit down beside her on the couch. Franny turned her head slowly from the TV to see what Ellen was doing. Ellen ran her hand through Franny’s hair and smiled at her. She reached out slowly and pulled the thumb from Franny’s lips. Ellen leaned forward and kissed Franny lightly. Franny kissed her back and they began to grope at each other. Franny turned to face. Ellen spread her legs wider as Franny sat in between them; she put both her hands on either side of Ellen’s face. Ellen explored Franny’s body; she ran her hands over her back and down to her ass giving it a squeeze. Ellen leaned forward and whispered in Franny’s ear, "Why don’t you put your peach on parade?" Franny giggled and planted her lips on Ellen’s neck and began to suck. Ellen threw her head back and let Franny kiss her whole neck and down to her chest. She gave Franny’s ass a squeeze again as she sighed a deeply. "Let’s do it baby," she whispered, tracing a finger up the bumpy notches of Franny’s spine. Franny felt a jolt of excitement run through her as Ellen said that. She got up off the couch and straddled Ellen’s knee. Ellen giggled, "Baby wants to play horsy huh?" Franny leaned forward and placed both hands on Ellen’s thigh. "Yes!" She whined, "Baby wants her horsy." Ellen smiled wickedly at her and began to bump and grind her knee into Franny’s crotch. Ellen leaned forward and grabbed the baby bottle off the table. She stuck it into Franny’s mouth forcefully. Franny held it with one hand while she held on to Ellen’s knee with the other. She closed her eyes tightly as she felt Ellen bouncing her up and down. "That’s a good baby," Ellen said squeezing one of Franny’s tiny breasts in the palm of her hand. Franny whined and scrunched up her face with pleasure. Franny knew she was going to explode if Ellen didn’t stop so she got off her knee pretty quick.
She started off towards the bedroom pausing only to look back at Ellen on the couch. She looked pouty for a moment and shoved her hand down her pants to press it against her crotch. Franny bent her knees a little and looked desperate, "Ooh, my pussy is all wet and aching." She said sticking out her bottom lip. Ellen’s eyes filled with fire when Franny said that and she practically leaped off the couch. Franny sauntered slowly down the hall, making sure her hips swayed obscenely to tease Ellen with her ass as she followed behind. When they got to the bedroom Ellen grabbed her from behind. Her breath was hot and heavy on the back of Franny’s neck. She pushed her face down on the bed and pulled the pants off her. Franny’s panties almost tore as Ellen grabbed them and pulled them down. Ellen grabbed Franny’s bum cheeks and pulled them apart and shoved her face into her pussy. It was moist and gooey down there as her tongue flicked at Franny’s pink hairless vagina. Franny bucked her hips on the mattress and sucked on her thumb as she felt Ellen’s tongue exploring her pussy. The scent of Franny’s ass and pussy were driving her mad and she shoved a hand down her own pants and rubbed her pussy while she ate Franny out. They slowed to a halt after sometime and Ellen stood up and removed her own pants and underwear. Franny crawled up on the bed more and lay down on her back. Ellen knelt on the bed over her. Franny’s hand moved slowly up Ellen’s soft thigh and she raked her fingers through the sticky mound of Ellen’s pubic hair. Ellen gasped and her legs went weak for a moment. Ellen smiled as the thought of what she wanted to do next popped into her head. She went to the end of the bed and lay on her side. Franny knew what she wanted now and she dug her heels into the mattress and lifted her bum off the bed. Ellen pulled herself up until one leg was under Franny’s back, the other across her stomach and chest. Their legs locked together like the blades of two pairs of scissors. Ellen pulled herself forward once more and felt Franny’s gooey hot pussy against her own. Franny could feel the wet sticky pubic hair of Ellen’s pussy grinding against the soft skin of her labia and she went out of control. "Uhmmmmm fucking yes!" Franny gasped; bucking her hips up and down as Ellen ground her pelvis side to side. "Do it baby!" Ellen said in a raspy voice lifting her head to watch Franny. Franny pressed a hand against her pussy and pressed down on her clit as she moved her hips a little faster. "Eeeeeee!" she squealed as she felt her orgasm building. Ellen ground her hips harder she could feel herself moving to the brink as well. "Haaaa! Yeah fuck me with your hot wet pussy." She cried. Franny clenched her teeth tightly together and groaned as she felt herself peak. She closed her eyes tightly and saw a picture of a shattering window explode in her brain as she went over the edge. "Mmmmaaaahhhh, I’m doooing itttt!!!!!" She cried out. Ellen threw her head back and sucked hair in through her teeth, "Me too, me too, me too Ahhhh!" she screamed. Gooey liquid from their vagina’s mingled together and ran down the crack of Franny’s ass on to the bed as they lay there panting for air.
"I did it so fucking good!" Ellen’s voice trailed off into laughter. "Oh God me too," Franny sighed and wiped some sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. They had quite a struggle to unlock their bodies as they were both exhausted from the effort. When they did finally manage to separate, Franny rolled onto her side and curled up in the fetal position. She stuck her thumb in her mouth. She lay silent and still as her entire body felt spent and sensitive. Ellen lay at the foot of the bed the palm of her hand gently caressing Franny’s ankle. "Such a good little girl," she whispered.
The brittle corn stalks lay in shambled delight
A long faded memory of August’s sight.
In the greenest of minds the eye catches on to the strains of labour
Frosty and gone.
Darkness was settling in. The sky dimmed and the house took on the strange light of evening. Franny Stretched out naked on the bed. Ellen still lay half sleeping, half awake near the foot of the bed. Franny stretched and yawned. A small bird sitting in the oak tree in the back yard chirped an evening call.
Somewhere on the outskirts of the city a young black haired girl sat smiling on a bench. She chewed up some bubble gum and spit it out into her hand. The mashed pink substance looked wet and slimy in her palm. She poked a finger into it and mashed it flat before turning her palm over to let it fall to the ground. She closed her eyes as she felt a small wind kick up off the duck pond and caress her face lightly like a moist brush. "Oops," she said quietly as grin broke out on her face. A wet patch the size of a small apple appeared in the crotch of her blue jeans. She relaxed her bladder again and felt another warm spurt dampen her pants. She smiled, and stood up. The heavy object in her coat weighed down on one side and made it look lopsided on her shoulders. Anna walked past an oak tree and grabbed a few leaves. She pulled them off the branch as she walked by and crumpled them up in her hand. She curled her lips back in a sneer as she felt the wet crotch of her pants grind against her vagina. "Look what they made me do." She said flatly and found the exit to the park.
"Hey muffin you awake up there?" Ellen said patting her hand against Franny’s ankle. "Uh Huh," Franny said almost in a whisper. Ellen chuckled; "I almost fell asleep," Franny nodded her head and sat up. "Me too, I think I did for a little while." She rubbed both her hands over her eyes. The phone rang suddenly and both of them jumped. "OH God!" Ellen said and grabbed her chest for a moment before leaping off the bed and running to the kitchen. She picked up the phone just as Franny got off the bed and went in to see who was calling. "Hello?" Ellen said, "Oh my gosh hi!!" Ellen’s face broke out into a smile. "No we’re doing fine, yeah Franny’s getting ready to go back to school. Did you get our email we sent a couple weeks ago?" Franny went to the fridge and poured herself a glass of milk and sat down at the table. "Oh my gosh are you kidding? Right now?…." there was silence for a moment then Ellen nodded her head. "Oh, alright that sounds like fun, do you want us to meet you somewhere? Oh, well can you find our place alright?" There was silence again and Franny turned around to look at Ellen, she was anxious to see who she was talking to. "Yeah it’s pretty easy." Ellen began to give out directions to their house. Franny furrowed her brow and waved her hand in the air to get Ellen’s attention. When Ellen looked at her Franny mouthed the word "WHO?" without making a sound. Ellen nodded to her and wrote something on the note pad by the phone and handed it to Franny. Franny looked at the note pad for a moment and a smile came across her face, ‘Trish’ it said in thick black letters. Franny put the note pad down and sat excitedly on the chair in the kitchen. Franny was excited she hadn’t seen Trish and Harry since lake Wamatta. They had talked on the phone a couple times and emailed each other quiet frequently but she hadn’t seen them. Franny couldn’t wait till they visited them; she was excited to hear what Ellen was going to tell her. Ellen nodded her head a couple more times and then said "Ok, great!! We’ll see you in a bit then!" She hung up the phone and turned to Franny. "When are they coming?" Franny asked excitedly. Ellen went over and sat down at the table. "Well it’s just her, Harry’s at home she’s in town visiting her friend from some school or something she used to attend. She’s leaving tomorrow or the next day but she wanted to stop in and see us before she left. She’s coming tonight for coffee I guess." Franny’s eyes bugged out, "Tonight!? Are you serious." She asked feeling the anticipation building in her stomach. "It’s almost 8:00pm now, I hope she’s not too far away." Ellen shrugged; she can stay in the guest bedroom tonight if she doesn’t want to drive back."
Out of everybody who attended the lake Wamatta party Trish and Harry were the only ones who really kept in touch. They had spoken with Mark and Laurie once but that was soon after they had returned. Johnny and Wendle had dropped out of the picture all together. When they decided to go to the baby party at Ricky’s and Polly’s farm house over the summer they tried to get Trish and Harry to attend but they couldn’t make it. There was some speculation for a while that Johnny was going to go, but he hadn’t turned up there. Franny and Ellen were disappointed; the farm house party was huge, and they had met a lot of new people. There were so many there that they didn’t even get to interact with all of them. There were two other baby girls there as well both of them had daddies, Franny was the only girl to come with a mommy. They vowed that if Ricky and Polly ever had another baby party they would attend. They even had a live band of babies playing; it was a really good time.
Franny leaned back in her chair, "What am I going to wear?" She asked suddenly, "I have no clothes, well none that are clean anyway." Ellen smiled, "Trish didn’t come all this way to see what you’re wearing." Franny picked up the saltshaker for a moment and played with it for a while. Ellen took it from her again. "You’ll be in baby mode anyway, so wear something from your ‘Little Miss Section’ Trish will think it’s cute." Ellen said. She had begun calling Franny’s baby clothes the ‘Little Miss Section’ sometime ago and it made Franny laugh. "What makes you think I’ll be in baby mode?" Franny asked. Ellen leaned back in her chair now, "Like you’re going to visit with Trish and not be," Ellen teased her, "Besides she expects you to be from the way she sounded on the phone." Franny smiled, she thought it was funny how Trish believed she lived her life in baby mode. "So I guess we got to get you ready for the party honey." Ellen said looking at Franny with a gleam in her eye. Franny turned on her baby mode almost instantly. She pulled her legs up under her bum and sat on them facing Ellen in the chair. Franny put her thumb in her mouth and looked at Ellen idly. "Oh my goodness, I see a baby girl in my kitchen." Ellen said placing her hand on her hip. Franny got excited and got up on her knees for a second and then fell back down onto her legs with a bounce. "She’s an excited baby girl too!" Ellen said smiling at her as she came over holding out her hand for Franny to take. Franny held out both hands as Ellen came over and she grabbed hold of Ellen’s arm and stood up. Franny wrapped her arms around Ellen’s waist and followed her into the bedroom. "Let’s get you dressed," Ellen said turning around to try and shake the caboose off her that was Franny. Franny smiled a big smile and balled her hands up and pressed them tightly against her tummy.
Ellen slid the closet door open and pushed the clothing that was hanging on coat hangers to the side. On the back wall of the closet hanging on hooks in the wall were Franny’s baby clothes. "Pick something out pumpkin." Ellen said waving her hand at the clothes hanging there. Franny put her index finger into her mouth as she stood in front of the closet looking at all the clothes hanging there. Her eyes fell upon the pretty pink smock type dress hanging on the hook. It was fairly tight fitting on the top, and hung down to her mid thigh. It also had the added bonus of having a big white fluffy polar bear patch just above the hem on the left side. Franny loved this dress because it was light, and looked pretty when she wore the proper socks. She took it off the hook and went to the dresser to pull out her light pink socks with the lace fringe around the top. "My goodness you’re going to look pretty." Ellen said coming up behind her and rubbing the small of her back. Franny smiled up at her lovingly. Franny laid the dress and socks on the bed and went to the jewellery box on the dresser. She opened it delicately and pulled out her pacifier on the long pink ribbon. She laid this on the bed too. "Do you want to wear your rhumbas with your outfit?" Franny nodded that she did. Ellen pulled a cardboard box out of the corner of the closet she held up two pairs. Franny had just bought a new pair just prior to the baby party at Ricky’s and Polly’s house. Ellen held up a pair of light yellow ones with baby seals on them, "These ones?" she asked. Then she held up Franny’s older pair of pink ones she had had all along. "Or these ones?" Ellen said. Franny couldn’t decide. She looked from one to the other. Finally Ellen decided to help her. The seals will match the polar bear on your dress but the color won’t match honey. The pink ones will go alright but then you’ll be very pink. Franny stuck her finger up and pointed to the yellow ones. "Those one’s I guess." She said, Franny liked pink but she thought it would be better to add a little color to her outfit. Ellen smiled, "Yellow panties it is then." She tossed them onto the bed. "Can’t forget the most important part can we?" Ellen said picking up the package of disposable diapers out of the closet. She pulled one out and placed it on the mattress. Franny glanced down at the white disposable. She savoured the look of the plastic cover and dotted blue stripe up the front. It had been a while since she wore one and she almost ached for it.
Franny climbed onto the bed and lay down. Ellen grabbed some lotion and powder and came over to the bed. She stripped off Franny’s pants and bright orange panties. Then she made Franny sit up and pulled off her shirt. Franny lay back down once it was off and put her thumb in her mouth. She played with her breasts a little as she watched Ellen unfolding the crinkling diaper to slide under her bum. She lifted her bum off the bed about an inch and Ellen slid it underneath her. Ellen smiled as she thought of how normal and simple all this was. She remembered the first time she had diapered Franny, it had become a big production because she didn’t know how to even put the diaper on her. Franny lowered her bum onto the soft, padded surface of the diaper. She smiled as she felt its comfy familiar embrace on her bum. Ellen looked down over her, Franny looked like she was in a world of bliss. The pink folds of her labia were becoming flushed and swollen with arousal. Ellen scratched a tickle against Franny’s belly button and picked up the pink bottle of baby lotion. She squeezed some into her palm and rubbed it a little to warm it up. Then her gentle hands came down onto the fleshy lips of Franny’s vagina. The sweet scent of the baby lotion filled the room and made Franny feel good inside. Ellen’s pretty face smiled down on her like the sun. Ellen brushed some hair out of her eyes and then picked up the bottle of baby powder. She sprinkled some on to the diaper itself and then on to Franny. Franny jerked a little as she felt the cool powder touch her warm skin. Ellen rubbed it in with the palm of her hand. The powder felt like silk against Franny’s soft pussy and Ellen couldn’t help but want to continue rubbing. She could hear Franny breathing in deep slow breathes as the powder worked itself in. By the time Ellen was finished rubbing Franny’s vagina it had worked up a little lubrication and her labia had become a bit gooey. The powder mixed with the lubrication and looked like a pasty ointment on her skin. Ellen pulled up the front of the diaper between Franny’s thighs and taped it up tight.
"That should keep you for a little while hey muffin?" Ellen said softly as she held up her arms for Franny to sit up. When Franny was sitting Ellen took the dress and put it over her head. Then she went around to button up the five pink buttons on the back. She pushed the buttons through the eyeholes on the dress with great speed. "All done up!" She said as she leaned forward and nuzzled her nose behind Franny’s ear. She gave her a small kiss and then went to grab Franny’s socks. She rolled the socks down and then placed them on the end of Franny’s toes. "These will keep your little piggies warm." She said with a smile. When her socks were on Franny stood up beside the bed and stepped into her yellow rhumbas, Ellen pulled them up her thighs and over top of her diaper. The final touch as always was her pacifier. Little Franny had come to life.
They waited for almost an hour before they saw a car pull up out front. Franny felt a bolt of nervousness pass through her stomach as she stood on top of the stairs watching Ellen who waited by the door. Almost at once a terrible thought came to her mind, what if Trish had brought her friend with her. Franny’s eyes got big and worried and she ran to the window to see if she could see Trish coming up the walk. It was too late by the time she reached the window there was a knock at the door. She heard Ellen open it and say hello. Franny stood motionless in the living room. She didn’t want to go see Trish at the door in case her friend was there. Instead she listened to the voices, when she didn’t hear Trish introduce someone else she breathed a sigh of relief. She started off back towards the stairs. Franny hardly remembered what Trish looked like she hadn’t seen her in so long. She only remembered her being a little older than Ellen, with long brown hair. As her eyes fell on Trish it all came back to her instantly. She stood by the door smiling up at Franny. Her shapely body leaned against the doorframe a little and her brown eyes smiled up at her. "There you are sweetie!" She said in a happy voice. Franny smiled down and waved, "Hello," she said quietly a little embarrassed to be greeting her the way she was dressed. "Well come down here and give me a hug, goodness sakes your just as shy as I remembered you." Franny went down the stairs one step at a time. She could hear her diaper crinkling as she descended; she wished she had not been wearing it now and she hoped Trish wouldn’t discover that she was. Trish gave her a giant tight squeeze around the shoulders, "It’s so good to see you again honey." She said happily. "It’s….it’s good to see you too." Franny said in an honest voice. She stepped back and folded her hands against her tummy again. "Come in please!!" Ellen said and Trish stepped inside.
They took a seat in the living room and chatted for a little while. "I’m sorry Harry couldn’t come, we’d love to see him again as well." Ellen said getting up to excuse herself as she went to prepare the coffee. Franny sat on the reclining chair across the room. Her back was very straight against the chair, her legs were closed tightly and her hands were folded in her lap. She wanted to be as lady like as possible hoping that Trish wouldn’t suspect she was diapered. "How have you been Franny honey?" Trish said turning to her as Ellen left the room. "Very well thank you." Franny said sounding polite. Trish laughed, "My goodness you’re being grown up tonight." Franny saw her eyes go over her outfit. Franny smiled, and asked how her visit with her friend was coming along. Trish went over everything that they had done thus far and by the time she was finished Ellen came back carrying the mugs of coffee. Trish looked up at Ellen as she came back in, "I wish Harry behaved so well when he is in his diapers." She shrugged, "He can be a bit over zealous at times. Ellen chuckled and sat down the mugs of coffee. "She’s probably sitting still cause she’s taking a pee." Franny’s mouth dropped open; she couldn’t believe Ellen would say something like that, she felt mortified. Trish chuckled again and picked up her mug of coffee. Franny felt like telling them that she was dry and had no intentions of wetting herself tonight. She kept her mouth closed though. "So I don’t want it to seem like I had a motive for my visit other than wanting to see you both again but I did want to ask you something." Trish said looking at Ellen. Franny felt a little angry that she had not looked at her. She could make decisions just like anyone else. She folded her arms across her chest and moped a bit. "We’re having a baby party this October for Halloween we’d love you guys to come and stay for a couple days." Franny’s ears perked up, she wanted to hear the details. "Gosh, we’d love to come, we can’t give you a definite answer tonight but I promise we’ll try to make it." Ellen smiled and nodded at Franny. Trish smiled and took another slurp of her coffee. "Where’s all your toys Franny?" Trish asked looking around the room. "I don’t have toys," Franny said. Ellen laughed, "Franny go get Puffy or your coloring books, of course you have toys." Trish turned to Ellen; "I think she’s trying to be a big girl tonight." She smiled. Franny wanted to say that she was a big girl… well, most of the time. Instead she thought she’d probably just go do something in the kitchen until the whole scene passed over. She got up and went into the kitchen quietly. Ellen and Trish smiled at each other as she passed.
"So hows the business?" Trish asked. Ellen shrugged and the told her about the problems she’d been having. "You should move down to our little town, we have almost nothing in the that line of stores. Well, there’s a shop that sells newspapers and tobacco, and maybe the odd novel, but as far as actual books, there’s nothing. You’d probably do pretty well." Ellen thought about it for a moment. The idea seemed logical, if she couldn’t make it here, she’d have to go somewhere that would appreciate her store. She changed the topic but decided she would give it more thought. Franny stood by the sink she was folding the dish cloth she had just used to wipe off the counter. Right about then she felt a familiar feeling. Her bladder had decided it was time to get rid of all that stored up pee. She looked around nervously, she didn’t want to but at the present time she didn’t see anyway to avoid it. She was diapered and desperate for a pee. She decided she could probably just pee once and no one would be the wiser. Franny was actually feeling a little excited by the notion of peeing her diaper secretly in the kitchen while Ellen and Trish were in the next room. She turned her back to the sink and spread her legs a little. Franny’s hands grabbed hold of the hem of her dress and she stared down at the pattern on the linoleum. She relaxed her bladder and felt a warm stream pouring out of her in a lazy fashion. The diaper did a good job of soaking up most of the pee as it streamed out and ran into her bum, surrounding her tush with damp warmth. She closed her eyes slowly and bent her knees slightly as pushed the last bit out. It gushed out in small spurts with a muffled hiss from inside her diaper. And then she was finished. She stood up straight and closed her legs tightly. The crotch of the diaper pushed all the unabsorbed pee back up against her vagina like a hot puddle, and Franny squeezed her thighs tightly to feel as much of it as she could. The diaper felt a little squishy, now as the gel inside began to encapsulate the urine and suck it into the core of the diaper. Franny smiled, she was satisfied with her secret pee. She went back into the living room to join Ellen and Trish.
Close my eyes at dawn, fall asleep listening to the birds out on my lawn
But my heart’s still beating though my slumber rages on
I dream of dreams dreaming though the night has
Passed and gone. No return, no returns, we all burn in the
point of no return.
Franny entered the living room with a meek look on her face and quietly tried to take a seat on the chair. "What were you doing in there?" Ellen asked giving her a serious look. Franny shrugged, "I was jus cweening up da kitchen." She said trying to sound mature but finding it very difficult with her diaper soaking wet. "Yes I’m sure you were sweetie." Ellen said in a condescending tone. Franny crossed her arms and sighed heavily. Trish laughed, "She’s such a cutie." You could just eat her up. Ellen was thinking the same exact thing at the moment only in a different context.
Eventually Franny got bored of trying to be big Franny and so she just decided she would be little Franny for a while at least she could have some fun. She went to the bedroom and got out her coloring books. Franny came back carrying the ‘Great Big Book of Color’ It was a coloring book 500 pages thick and Ellen had gotten it for her for Christmas last year. So far she had colored over 150 images in Franny sat down on the floor with a sigh. She had a lot of work to do. Franny was sitting on the bare spot on the floor just behind the couch which was placed diagonally in the centre of the room. Ellen turned her body around to peer over the back of the couch at her. "Doing some pictures honey?" Franny looked up with her big dark eyes and nodded her head, and then dropped her eyes back to the book. She flipped through some pages that had dragons, and caterpillars. She came to a picture of a penguin and stopped. It looked like a nice picture because the penguin was licking a Popsicle, Franny sighed. She wished she had a Popsicle right now. She was going to color it but when she looked down to see the short rounded nub that was left of her black crayon, she knew she’d never be able to finish it with that. She flipped the page and saw the perfect picture. It was a happy looking sea manatee. Franny was over joyed when she saw her gray crayon was almost the original length. She picked it out of the box and peeled some of the paper away from the end. Franny set to work on her manatee.
One week ago, another girl named Virginia had colored the very same picture but in a different book. Her daddy Dan, was busy catching up on the news. So Virginia had decided to color. Her pretty red shoulder length hair fell down over her shoulders as she lay on her tummy on the floor. She put down her pencil crayon for a moment. "Will there be cookies there?" She asked. Dan put down his newspaper. She had been asking about it for two days now, unfortunately his knowledge about the party had run out with in twenty minutes of explaining it to her. He looked at her, Virginia’s long shapely body spread out like a painting on the carpet. Her dark green eyes stared at him with the wonder of a child, even though she was 27. Her pretty face had the sweetest pair of crimson lips he had ever seen in his life. She made his heart melt every time she looked at him. "I don’t know Ginia" Dan always called her Ginia when he didn’t call her Pebble. Pebble was her pet name because of her red hair, it reminded him of baby Pebbles from the Flintsones. She looked disappointed for a moment and her eyes fell to the coloring book as if she was going to find the answer to her question on the page. "Pebble, it’s a party I imagine they’ll have all kinds of good things to eat." She smiled up at him now, "What about balloons?" She asked folding her hands under her chin as she stared up at him with mischievous eyes. Dan rolled his eyes and peered over top of the paper again, he knew she was just playing with him now. Dan set down his newspaper and got off the couch and got down on the floor with her. He could see her excitement building in her eyes. "Yes, I hear they have taken all the floats from the Macy’s Day parade and are going to have them on display!" Virginia narrowed her eyes and stared at him defiantly as if to say, "You can’t fool me buster brown." He pushed his face closer to her to give her a kiss. Virginia giggled and sat up. Dan watched with lust as her ‘B’ cup sized breasts swayed underneath her shirt. Her eyes darted around on the floor for a moment looking for her pacifier and she picked it up and stuck it between her lips. "Are you wet yet?" He asked looking down and the crotch of her pink corduroy pants. She stuck her nose in the air and shook her head as if she was proud. Dan knew she was lying. She had been wearing the adult disposable underpants for almost two hours now and he was willing to bet she had soaked it. "Alright," He said starting to get up, "Can I finish my paper now?" He asked looking at her seriously for a moment. Virginia nodded as she squeezed the crotch of her pants. "Are you going to be a big girl and play quietly?" He asked. She smiled, "I’m a big girl," She said proudly as she held up her fingers. "I’m dis many." She said. Holding up three fingers. "Yes," he said nodding "Almost this many." He held up four fingers. Dan smiled as he went to sit down. She had been almost four for the past two years. He didn’t think she was going to ever be four, but he didn’t want her to be.
Franny’s manatee looked splendid!! He was two shades of gray, which gave him definition and tone. She had even taken the time to leave small white squares in his black eyes to indicate that somewhere a light source was shining on her manatee. Her only complaint was that his whiskers were simple black lines and had no room to color them. She wished they could be brown. She furrowed her brow and looked at them. "How’s your picture?" Ellen said suddenly and Franny jumped. She looked up at Ellen, "Good, the whiskers should be brown." She said taking her little finger and sticking it down on the whiskers. Trish chuckled, "she sure likes her coloring doesn’t she?" Ellen nodded and smiled. "How are your pants? Pretty wet I guess huh?" Ellen asked. Franny looked up at her and shook her head no. "Come here and let me check." Ellen said motioning with her hand for Franny to come over. Franny looked at Trish for a moment with an embarrassed look on her face. Ellen smiled, "Come on sweetie it’s ok." Franny slowly got up and went around the couch where she stopped in front of Ellen. Ellen turned her around and stuck her hand down the back of Franny’s rhumba panties; Franny felt her hand squeezing the bum of her diaper. She folded her hands on her tummy and looked at the floor. She could feel Trish watching her. "How come it’s so squishy back here? Did you poop?" Ellen asked pulling her hand out and staring up at the back of Franny’s head. Franny looked mortified that Ellen would even mention such a thing. She shook her head violently. "NO!" She said loudly and glanced down at Trish who was smiling up at her. "Well why is it so squishy and bulky in your bum?" Ellen put her face close to Franny’s bum and sniffed the air. She didn’t smell anything though. "It must be the gel core in the diaper, sometimes they don’t put it in evenly over the whole diaper and it gets bulkier in some sections than others." Trish explained. Ellen nodded, "Well alright then, but you should get changed soon anyway you’re really wet honey." She gave Franny a smack on the bottom. Franny felt her knees grow weak for a moment from it. Franny turned around to face Ellen, she was feeling really embarrassed and wanted a little comfort. Ellen smiled at her and held her hands. Franny turned and sat down between Ellen knees and she wrapped her arms around Franny and hugged her tight. Ellen rocked her back and forth for a while. Trish sat smiling at them both. "Do you mind if I call Harry?" She asked suddenly. Ellen said she could and Trish got up and went to grab the phone. Ellen and Franny sat on the couch together for a few moments. Ellen nuzzled her nose behind Franny’s ear again, "Did you poop muffin?" She whispered. Franny shook her head again. "No," she said quietly feeling a little scared because she did have to poop now. Franny got up off the couch suddenly. She wanted to put some distance between herself and Trish and Ellen in case she couldn’t hold it. "Going to go finish your picture?" Ellen asked watching her going back behind the couch. Franny nodded and put her pacifier into her mouth as she sat down. Ellen turned on the TV while she waited for Trish to return, she could hear her talking with Harry on the phone in the kitchen and she felt uncomfortable listening to them. It was 11:00pm and the late night news was coming on.
Franny listened to the news anchor begin to give the top stories. "Well, it’s happened again." Natasha Burke said. Franny wrinkled her nose she hated Natasha Burke. She thought Natasha was a skank bitch actually. She kept that thought to her self though. "Yet another robbery in the Midwest area this time it happened here. At around 9:00pm this evening an assailant meeting the same description, as the suspect wanted in eight other armed robberies walked into Tillby’s convience store and held up the cashier. She’s described as a thin black haired girl in her twenties. We go live now to Tillby’s for a report from. Rex Carson." There was a silence for a moment and then Rex came on. "Well Natasha, this is the latest in a long line of robberies through out the Midwest. Witnesses are describing almost word for word the same story as all the other robberies. The suspect walked up to the counter pulled out a pistol and pointed it at the cashier. Then demanded the money in the till. The telling fact that it is the very same suspect is that she is apparently incontinent, or is pretending to be." Franny heard Natasha cut in, "Hmm that’s nasty Rex." Franny wrinkled her nose and mimicked what Natasha said with a silent distaste. "Indeed Natasha," Rex continued. "There is one late development to the story while speaking to the chief of police this evening he did indicate that they may know the identity of this person, and said that a Psychiatrist from the Havenfawn facility had gotten in touch with the police this afternoon. He refused to give any more details…. Natasha?" Rex threw the audience back to her. "Well Rex stay on it there, talk to you later. Natasha moved on to another story."
Franny was putting the finishing touches on her manatee as Trish came back into the room. Trish came over and looked at her picture. "What a pretty picture honey!" She said happily. Franny looked up at her with big happy eyes and smiled. She didn’t feel too happy inside though. She felt like she really needed to go poo and quickly. She had been sitting on her knees and she moved them away and sat squarely on the carpet of the floor to keep pressure on her bum. "It’s a manatee," she said happily. Trish smiled and rubbed her hand of Franny’s head, "I know honey." Trish went back over to the couch. "Are you going to head back tonight, or do you want to crash here?" Ellen asked. Trish shrugged "I don’t know I hadn’t really thought about it." "Well you’re very welcome to stay with us." Ellen said, "We’d love to have you for breakfast." Trish laughed, "Well, it is a kind of a drive to get back to Vera’s place, I could call her and say I’ll stay here, that is if you’re sure you don’t mind." Ellen shook her head, "Not at all." Trish smiled "Good! I’ll stay then." Franny wasn’t sure how she felt about that now. She did want Trish to stay but she also needed to take a poop and she didn’t want to do that in front of her. She decided if it got too bad she would just go to the toilet. The thought of that kind of disappointed her as well. She remembered the last time she had a messy accident how wonderful Ellen had been with her and she was hoping to repeat the performance.
Franny put her thumb in her mouth and pondered on what to do. She twirled her hair a little as she sat looking around the room. Maybe she could do it secretly like her pee and not be discovered until Trish had gone to bed. She had to do something soon she was reaching the point of no return. Franny got up and walked over to the linen closet. "What are you doing pumpkin?" Ellen asked. "I’m going to set up the spare bedroom for Trish." She said, finding big Franny inside of her. Trish looked surprised she had spoke like that. "Don’t worry about it, why don’t you just come over and sit on the couch with us for a while, it’s almost time for bed now." Franny looked frustrated for a moment. Ellen smiled when she saw Franny get a little mad. "What’s wrong with you, why’s it so important to make the bed at this very moment?" She asked. "No reason." Franny said coming back into the living and she took a seat in the reclining chair. She noticed Ellen staring at her for a moment suspiciously. Franny’s bum felt sweaty from holding it in. She couldn’t help the small quiet little farts that were exploding in her diaper as she sat there. She wiped a hand across her forehead to remove some sweat that was building up. Right about then Ellen got up off the couch and asked Franny to help her in the kitchen.
Franny got panicked for a moment she didn’t know if she could stand up with out messing her self. She slowly got up and went to the kitchen. She could feel it starting to push it’s way out with every step. She tried her best to hang on. Ellen was leaning against the counter by the sink when she came in. Franny went over and stood beside her. She could hear Ellen taking a quick sniff of the air around her. "Alright, tell me the truth this time did you poop yourself?" Franny shook her head. "No but I’m going to it’s coming out!" she whined. Ellen sighed, "Pumpkin, why didn’t you just say you had to go. I would have taken the diaper off for you and put a fresh one on." Franny bent her knees a little; her poor stomach just couldn’t hold it anymore. "Can you make it?" Ellen said taking her hand determined to get her to the bathroom. "I don’t know, some of it’s coming out already" Franny said shaking her head and trying to whisper. She felt it moving slowly from between her bum cheeks, inching it’s way out like warm sticky clay. Franny turned and took a couple steps in the kitchen and then squatted down on the floor. She grabbed hold of the lace fringe on her socks and her stomach contracted tightly making her grunt deeply from her throat as her diaphragm forced the air out. Ellen sighed and waited for her to finish. Franny’s diaper tented out in the back as her poo balled up inside with a squishy crackling noise. As the last of her poo had made it’s exit and caked up in between her bum cheeks Franny let out a deep sigh. Ellen came over to her and rubbed the back of her head a little. "Poopy, girl." She said in whisper. Franny felt embarrassed and she looked up at Ellen, she was surprised to see a smile on Ellen’s face. "It’s ok muffin, that’s all right." Ellen squatted down beside Franny now. "We’ll get you cleaned up, don’t worry about it." Franny began to feel better and she stood up. She felt the semi hard poo fall off her bum and into the seat of the diaper as she did so. Ellen put her hand of Franny’s back. "We’ll go see the potty ok sweetie?" Franny nodded and started off for the hall. Ellen called over her shoulder. "I just have to change Franny, I’ll be back in a minute." Trish didn’t even look up from the TV, "OK," she said. "Miss Stinky goes right in here." Ellen said guiding her into the bathroom by her shoulders. "You stay here and I’ll get another diaper and everything." Franny nodded, she was glad she had been able to pull it off with out Trish finding out.
Take your voice and make it sing
Ask is it day because it’s lighter
Or because the sun touches more of everything.
Ellen began to unbutton Franny’s dress. She pushed the buttons back out the eyeholes. Franny’s dress got loose around the shoulders. Ellen pulled off the shoulder straps and let it fall down around Franny’s feet. Franny folded her arms in front of her chest to cover her breasts. "Phew you stink pumpkin." Ellen said a little too loud for Franny’s liking. Ellen bent down and pulled the yellow rhumba panties down around her ankles and she stepped out of them. Franny soggy wet diaper looked quite pathetic. It was about as droopy as you could get having been heavily saturated and the pooped in. "This is not going to be nice." Ellen said grabbing the tapes on the side and pulling them off. When they were undone She took hold of the diaper and slowly lowered it to the floor, The poop was about the diameter of a baseball. Ellen picked up the diaper carefully off the floor and emptied it out into the toilet. It hit the water with a deep ‘plunk’ sound and Franny watched as a drop of water sailed up into the air for a moment and then fell back down into the bowl. Ellen went to the cabinet under the sink and pulled out some baby wipes. "Turn around poopy," She said. Franny turned slowly around with her bum facing Ellen. Her butt wasn’t in too bad of shape. There was poo caked in between her cheek and some had smeared on her cheeks a little as she walked to the bathroom. Ellen took a couple wipes and put them strategically over top of her fingers. She dug them into Franny’s cheeks and pulled upwards trying to scrape out the poo that was packed in there. Franny closed her eyes as she felt the baby wipe pry in between her bum cheeks. Ellen wiped her off as well as she could. There were still some smears here and there on her bum and she turned on the shower and told Franny to step in. Ellen went back to the bedroom. As she passed through the hall she peered into the living room to see what Trish was doing. She was sitting on the couch with her eyes on the TV, but Ellen noticed she looked pretty sleepy. Her eyes would close and the pop open again. Ellen thought that perhaps it was time to draw the evening to a close.
In the bedroom she picked out some pajamas for Franny to wear to bed. They were white cotton ones with pants and a top. Franny wore them fairly often because she liked the big sleepy Teddy Bears on them. One was setting an alarm clock and the other was curled up in bed. These two prints were repeated over and over all over the pajamas. They also had a big smiling moon that covered her bum. Ellen used to joke that Franny was mooning her when she wore them. She brought them back with her and was pleased to see that Franny had turned on the shower and was washing herself off on her own. "I brought your jammies." Ellen said sticking her head in the shower. Franny’s head was under the shower at the moment and she blew some water off her lips and pulled aside the plastered hair off he head and tried to open her eyes to look at Ellen. "Thanks," She said graciously. Ellen smiled, "I’ll leave them here and you can put them on when you get out OK sweetie, I’m going to go fix up Trish’s bed for her, she’s getting pretty tired." Franny was in the process of rinsing off. Ellen closed the shower curtain over and went back to the living room.
"Getting tired?" She asked Trish as she came in and sat down. "Yeah, I’ve had a long day." Tish said rubbing a hand against her thigh lightly. "Well Franny and I are probably going to go to bed soon as well. You can watch TV here until you’re ready for bed, and there’s plenty to eat in the fridge if you want a snack." Trish smiled, "Thanks but I think I’m just going to turn in for the night. I would like to say goodnight to Franny though." Trish looked down the hall. "Is she in bed already?" Ellen shook her head, "No she’s taken a shower, she was a bit messy." Trish chuckled, " I thought so." Ellen got up and went to the linen closet and pulled out some sheets and blankets for the bed. "I’ll just go make up your bed then." Ellen took the linen to the spare room, which was located next to the bathroom and across the hall from Franny and Ellen’s room.
She picked the diaper up off the counter by the sink and looked at it for a moment. She felt kind of awkward to wear it to bed, and decided that she would just wear her jammies. She never slept in a diaper normally so she didn’t see any reason to start now just because Trish was visiting. Franny slipped her legs into her jammies. She was happy Ellen had chosen these ones. She felt like wearing these ones tonight. She pulled them up and took hold of her top. Slowly and methodically she buttoned it up, she was feeling a little embarrassed to go out and see Trish after what she had done and she hoped Trish didn’t know about it. Franny grabbed a towel off the rack and began to dry her hair again. She hated going to bed with wet hair because it always made it so unmanageable in the morning. She thought about wrapping the towel around her head to help it dry but then decided she was not going to walk around the house with a towel on her head in front of company. Instead she just rubbed it dry as best as she could. She refolded the towel and placed back on the rack and left the bathroom.
Franny poked her head into the spare bedroom. "Hi, need any help?" She asked Ellen who was currently tucking the bottom sheet into the mattress. She turned her head to look back at Franny. "Hey there jammie pants." She smiled. Franny pulled at the waistband of the pajamas and let it snap back against her tummy. Ellen looked puzzled for a moment. "No diaper?" She asked. Franny smiled and shrugged, "I don’t usually wear them to bed." Ellen nodded, "I just thought you would jump at the chance to is all." Franny came over and pulled the sheet tight so Ellen could tuck it under. "Yeah, I would but I kind of just want to spend some time with you tonight." Ellen smiled and rubbed her hand through Franny’s hair. "That’s sweet honey thank you." She planted a small kiss on Franny’s lips. She smiled at her warmly and laid her hand against her cheek. Franny stepped closer and wrapped her arms around Ellen. She smiled at her, "Maybe you could tell me a story tonight though." Ellen tilted her head to the side, Franny hadn’t asked her for a story in a long time. She told her bedtime stories all the time but she could Franny was talking about a different kind of story. Ellen smiled, "Perhaps you should go out and keep Trish company though cause she’s sitting out there by herself pumpkin." Franny nodded and turned to leave. Ellen watched her tight little backside sway back and forth as she left the room. The big yellow smiling moon looked back at her from the seat of Franny’s jammies.
Trish was looking pretty sleepy as Franny took a seat on the reclining chair. "Hello." Franny said in a cheery voice. "Hey there sweetie all squeaky clean now?" Trish said. Franny nodded, "Yup! All ready for bed." Trish nodded in approval, "Me too I had a pretty long day." She said laying her head against her hand. Franny scratched a finger behind her ear and looked around nervously. She wasn’t sure what to say next. "So how was Harry when you talked to him on the phone?" She asked. "Good! He’s probably having the time of his life while I’m not there. He likes to get diapered 24/7 when ever he gets the chance." Franny nodded, she would like that too. She kind of wished she had taken the opportunity to wear one now. "So you’re not wearing a diaper to bed?" Trish asked. Franny shook her head; "No I find them kind of hard to sleep in." She was beginning to wonder what the deal was with Trish. Why was she always so eager to see her in her diapers all the time?
"What are you two chatting about?" Ellen said coming back in and taking a seat on the couch. "What else?" Trish chuckled. Ellen smiled, "Well I think we’re going to turn in for the night. Do you need anything before we go?" Trish shook her head, "I should be alright here." Franny and Ellen got up and said goodnight and went back to the bedroom.
Franny hopped under the blankets and pulled them up over her. She peeked mischievously at Ellen from under them. Ellen stood at the foot of the bed looking down at Franny. Neither of them said a word for a few moments they just smiled at each other. Ellen slowly began to sway her hips, She hummed a sexy tune as she unbuttoned her pants and pulled them down her thighs. Franny broke out into giggles as she watched. "Your so funny." She laughed. Ellen unhooked her bra and swung it around her head a few times. Franny laughed harder, " Stop it your too funny," she laughed. Ellen got under the blankets and held her arm out for Franny to lay her head against. Franny was feeling kind of silly and she crawled underneath the blankets. "What are you doing?" Ellen chuckled. She felt Franny kissing her tummy and it tickled her. "Stop you little tease." Ellen chuckled. Franny’s head popped out of the blankets with a big smile on her face. "Tease?" She asked, "I’m a tease?" Ellen smiled and nodded. The blanket was still half over Franny’s head and she looked silly. Franny threw off the covers and began kissing Ellen’s tummy again. Franny’s finger trailed slowly over Ellen’s belly button and then just underneath the elastic waistband of her panties. Franny pulled it down a little on the right hand side to examine the thin line of the faded scar above Ellen’s hip. She had had her appendix removed when she was a little girl. Franny liked the scar she thought it was cute. She started humming a tune as she ran her finger along it. She looked up to see Ellen’s warm content face smiling down at her. "What are you humming?" she asked. It sounded familiar but she couldn’t place it. Franny started to sing it quietly to her as she traced her finger along.
"Pink ribbon scars that never forget.
I’ve tried so hard to cleanse theses regrets
My angel wings are bruised and restrained
My belly stings.
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on."
Ellen looked puzzled for a moment, "What’s that song?" It hadn’t been the song she thought it was. Franny looked frustrated and she placed her hand flat against Ellen’s tummy. "It’s called ‘Today’ by the Smashing Pumpkins." Ellen laughed "Oh so sorry I don’t know about your crazy rock bands." Franny smiled and shrugged. "It’s ok Granny." Ellen’s mouth dropped open. "What did you just call me?" Ellen sat up and grabbed Franny by the sides and poked a couple fingers into her sides. Fanny screeched and rolled off the bed.
Trish was almost asleep when she heard Franny screech in an excited high-pitched tone. She smiled in the darkness of the spare room. "Someone found Franny." She rolled over and went to sleep. Ellen lay still in the bed, "Ok pumpkin just come back to bed I’m too tired to do that right now." Franny stood excitedly in the corner by the dresser looking down at Ellen. She sighed a bit and went over to the bed to get in. The moment she came close enough Ellen grabbed her by the arm and pulled her onto the bed. Franny fell face first onto the mattress in a chorus of laughter. Ellen spanked her a few times on the bottom. "Granny?…Is that what you called me?" Ellen asked smacking her hand down. Franny screamed, "No!!" She tired to say something else but it was too mixed up with her laughter to understand. Ellen remembered they had company in the house and stopped suddenly. "Why’d you stop?" Franny asked wiping some spit off her lips that had collected there from her uncontrolled laughter. Ellen put her fingers to her lips, "Shhhh, Trish is trying to sleep." Franny looked as if she suddenly remembered as well.
They had only had company once the entire time they lived there. Franny supposed that Ellen had had company all the time before she moved in but she never asked about them. The only person to ever visit them was Trish’s mother. That was a tense time for Franny and she didn’t like to remember it. Especially since she had over heard them talking in the kitchen that Saturday Morning. Franny was watching Friendly Bears on the couch while Ellen and her mother were doing a jig saw puzzle in the kitchen. She had been on her best behaviour since Eliza had arrived, but she didn’t want to miss Friendly Bears. She turned it on and sat nicely on the couch. It was one of the first times she had watched with out Puffy and she wished she could have him. She was trying not to listen to what they were saying but Ellen’s mother was a little hard of hearing in one ear and so she talked a little louder as a result. She tried her best to tune them out but when she heard Ellen’s mom say, "She’s a little young isn’t she?" her ears perked up. "Mom, she’s not that young. Be quiet she’ll hear you." Ellen whispered. "She won’t hear me she’s watching bloody cartoons for God sake." "Shhhh," Ellen said. "Ellen, I’ve accepted your lifestyle and even accepted the fact that I will not have any grandchildren but aren’t you kind of robbing the cradle just a little?" "Mom she’s 23, not 13… Why is it such a problem for you? We’re happy, she’s happy." Ellen argued. "She’s too young to know happy darling. She’s still a baby," Ellen cringed when she heard that, her mother didn’t know how right she was. It made her feel dirty. "Mom, enough end of discussion." They fell silent. Franny didn’t feel like watching Friendly Bears anymore, she shut off the TV and went to take a walk outside. Ellen’s mom did warm up to her towards the end of the visit but she got the feeling she never really liked her too much.
Ellen slid a hand underneath the waistband of Franny’s panties and rested the palm of her hand against her smooth bum cheeks. She gave it a little squeeze and smiled at her. "Ready to come to bed?" She asked. "That depends," Franny said looking at her with a teasing smile. "Depends on what?" Ellen asked. "On whether or not I get a story." Franny said. Ellen nodded, "Ok" Franny smiled and got back in bed and pulled the blankets up around them. She nestled her head against Ellen’s chest and pushed the side of her face against Ellen’s breasts. Ellen began to tell the story. Franny closed her eyes and put her thumb into her mouth. Her other hand trailed down her tummy and into her panties.
" I know a girl who is named muffin, and she sleeps in the most comfy of beds." Ellen whispered in her ear. She felt Franny begin to rub herself slowly under the blankets. "Her bed is so comfy that everybody wants to climb in and get all cuddly with her." Franny whined a little and moved her hips a little as she listened. "Every night when muffin climbs in her bed, she snuggles with puffy bears, and furry soft animals of all sorts." Franny was biting down on her bottom lip as she moved her hand in circles over the gooey lips of her labia. Ellen listen to the moist squishy sound of her masturbating. She could feel Franny’s body getting tense she knew it wouldn’t be long now. She turned her head slightly and whispered into her ear. "Everyone wants to get cuddly with muffin cause she’s the sweetest bestest little girl in the whole world!!" Ellen’s words sounded sharp and forceful as if she were pushing Franny to the brink with the sound of her voice. "Yes!" Franny cried almost sounding in pain from arousal. "UH HUH!! She’s my little girl…. My good big naughty little girl." Ellen scolded. Franny went crazy. She thrust her hips up off the mattress and rubbed frantically at her crotch. "Touch me, just touch me." She whined. Ellen slid her hand down her tummy and over the hand inside her panties. Ellen’s hand clasped over top of Franny’s, and she squeezed it making her press harder against herself. Franny sounded as if she were choking for a moment as an orgasm seized her body and felt as if she were falling. She collapsed down on to the bed and snuggled tightly against Ellen with a groan. Ellen hugged her tight and rubbed her back. "Did you do it go muffin?" She asked. "Yes." Franny said in a quiet whisper. They snuggled together for a long time. Neither one of them remembered at what point they fell asleep.
The sun was creeping over the hills, leaving a tangerine colored light in its fiery wake. Morning was nigh. The birds began to sing, and animals began to stir. The sun fell on the face of Anna Cobalt and she lifted her face to it. She had been standing over the pile of cash for sometime. A wicked smile crossed her lips. She had piled the money up on the cement trail of the park. She unbuttoned her pants and tore open the zipper. Pulling down her pants and terribly stained panties she squatted and let go with her morning pee all over the money. Laughter filled the air as the sun continued to rise.
It’s now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube and end up in your infection
-Drain you-
-Nirvana-
The lotion felt sticky on her bottom and insides of her thighs as she sat cross-legged on the couch. Her eyes were transfixed on a fat brown leaf being blown around by the wind across the front lawn. She sniffled a little and pulled Puffy von Pringle a little closer to her face. Franny pulled her blanket a little closer around her body and shifted her weight a little. Her diaper crinkled noisily underneath her pajama bottoms. The morning looked crisp and a few scattered clouds seemed to drift and change aimlessly across the sky.
She wished Ellen was there with her, Franny wasn’t feeling very good today and she had decided to stay home from school. Her nose was a bit stuffy and her throat felt dry and burned a little. She didn’t feel hot, but she knew Ellen would say she had a temperature. Ellen always said that when Franny was feeling the slightest bit under the weather. Ellen would always place the back of her hand lightly against Franny’s forehead and then say, "You feel a bit hot honey!" Franny knew she didn’t have a fever most of the time but she always went along with it. She wished Ellen were here to say that to her now. The house seemed quiet and still. It was only 10:00am and Franny was feeling a bit bored already. Ellen had left for work at 7:00 this morning. Franny wasn’t even awake to say good-bye to her. She glanced up at the clock; she was supposed to be in her sociology class right now. She felt a little guilty for missing it; they were having a lecture on the Group Think Theory today. Franny got off the couch and went to the kitchen to phone Ellen. She didn’t like to bother her at work but she really wanted to tell her that she wasn’t feeling well. She picked up the phone and punched in the numbers for the bookstore and then pulled over a kitchen chair and took a seat. Franny rested her head against the palm of her hand as she waited for someone to pick up the phone. "Hello The Front Page how can we help you?" it was Cassidy. Franny wrinkled her nose, she didn’t like Cassidy very much. It was mainly because Cassidy didn’t like her. "Hi Cassidy is Ellen there?" Franny asked quickly. "Hi Franny, how’s it going?" Cassidy asked. Franny was a bit taken back, Cassidy usually didn’t talk to her when she called. She had only met Cassidy a couple times in person and Franny got the notion that their personalities clashed. "Uhmm pretty good I guess, is Ellen out or something?" There was a silence for a moment and then Cassidy came back on. "No she’s right here, just a second." Franny heard Cassidy put the phone down on the counter. She could hear music from the bookstore in the background.
"you pretend you’re high, pretend your bored
pretend you’re anything just to be adored
and what you need is what you get….
Don’t believe in fear, Don’t believe in faith
Don’t believe in anything that you can’t reign
Stupid girl…"
Franny recognized the song instantly as Stupid Girl from the band Garbage. It wasn’t the type of music Ellen usually played in the store, but she figured it must be part of the stores new image. She wrapped her hand around the mouthpiece of the phone as she waited for Ellen to pick up. Ellen seemed to be taking a while to answer and Franny felt a twinge of annoyance pass over her as she waited. Finally she came on, "Hi what’s up?" Ellen said, she sounded kind of worried. "Hi Ellen, nothing much I’m not feeling well today so I stayed home from school." Franny stated. There was a second of silence, "Oh I’m sorry to hear that honey, are you ok?" Ellen asked. Franny felt a little excited now, Ellen never called her honey in public. They usually kept their relationship under wraps. She squeezed her thighs together tightly and smiled. "I’m jus feewing a wittle sick." Little Franny answered back. Ellen smiled as she pictured Franny pouting in the kitchen when she said that. "Oh my goodness muffin that’s awful." Franny nodded in agreement that it was an awful thing. "Do you want me to pick you up anything on my way home?" Ellen asked, "I have to come home for lunch today, there’s something I have to discuss with you." Franny got serious when she heard Ellen say that. "What is it?" She asked feeling a little worried now. "I don’t want to talk about it here, I’ll tell you when I get home." Ellen sounded serious it made Franny feel worse. "Is it bad?" She asked. Ellen chuckled a little, "No honey it’s nothing bad." Franny nodded, "A chocolate bar?" She asked. There was a quiet again, "Huh?" Ellen asked. Franny sighed, "A chocolate bar, you can pick me up a chocolate bar." Ellen laughed a little, "How’s a chocolate bar going to make you feel better?" Franny twirled her hair around her finger, "It won’t but they sure are yummy." Ellen laughed. "Ok sweetie, how about some Smarties?" Ellen asked. She didn’t feel like waiting for Franny to decide what she wanted. "Uhmm, ok they sound good." Franny nodded. They said their good-byes and hung up. Franny got up and pushed her chair back over to the kitchen table.
Franny waited anxiously for Ellen to get home for lunch. She wondered all day what Ellen wanted to talk with her about. She also couldn’t wait to have her Smarties, the more she thought about them the more they sounded good. She sat on the couch for most of the morning. Franny curled up in her blanket with Puffy and watched TV for most of the morning. She saw a program called Boo’s Craft Corner. It was a silly show about a man in a ghost suit who made crafts for children. She changed the channel quickly she didn’t like Boo. Finally she found a show that she thought was decent enough to watch. Slippery Pete and the Bandits was a show about a giant Seal who solved crimes with the help of his companion Earl. Earl was a trout with a heavy Russian accent and the best part about Earl was that he had a moustache. Franny lay curled up with a smile on her face as she sucked her thumb. Earl was about to leap out of a stream and slap a crook in the back of the head with his tale when Franny furrowed her brow. She sucked hard on her thumb and relaxed her bladder. A heavy stream of warm pee began to trickle out. It hissed and splashed in the crotch of her diaper in a determined flow. She could feel it pooling around her bottom in a warm embrace. Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth and whined as if she was sad that such a terrible thing had happened. Then she clenched her bum cheeks tightly together and wiggled her hips to feel the hot peed diaper against her bum. "Hmmmmmm" she sighed with a smile and put her thumb back in her mouth. It was shaping up to be a good day.
She had almost fallen asleep when she heard Ellen open the door downstairs. She was startled at first. The situation seemed unnatural; she quickly regained her senses and got off the couch to meet Ellen. Franny went over to the top of the stairs and looked down at the front door where Ellen stood removing her shoes. "Hi!" She said to Ellen in a happy voice. Ellen looked up at her with a smile. "You seem pretty chipper for someone who’s sick." Franny felt a wave of guilt pass over her for a moment as if she had been caught in a lie. When she felt the slight burning in her throat and the stuffy hot feeling in her nostrils she remembered that she was sick and she smiled down at Ellen. "I am sick," she said defensively. Ellen chuckled, "I was just teasing you muffin." Franny nodded and stepped out of the way as Ellen came up the stairs. Franny watched her quietly as she went into the living room. She didn’t see Ellen carrying any Smarties and she was getting a little anxious that she might have forgotten to get them. She followed Ellen into the kitchen and watched as she sat her purse down on the kitchen table. Still no Smarties appeared. Franny was starting to feel disappointed. Her fingers played with the trim at the bottom of her pajama shirt as she stood watching at Ellen with a look of anticipation. Ellen went over to the sink and poured herself a glass of water. She drank it down while watching Franny out of the corner of her eye. She couldn’t help but laugh as she set the glass down on the counter. "Ok," she said with a smile. She went over to her purse and pulled out the box of Smarties. Franny’s face lit up with joy as she heard the rattling of the candy-coated chocolates inside.
Franny’s fingers found the box and she instantly tore into the cardboard flaps on the end to open it. Ellen watched her for a moment as she lifted the tiny flaps and looked inside the box. "See anything good in there?" Ellen asked as she turned around to go over to the cupboards for something to eat for lunch. "What do you want to talk to me about?" Franny asked as she pushed a Smartie in her mouth with her index finger and crunched it in her teeth. Ellen sigh, "I’ll tell you in a second." Franny pulled a chair out from the kitchen table and took a seat. She watched Ellen pick up a can from the shelf and examine the label. "We have tomato soup?" Ellen thought that was strange because she hated tomato soup. Franny giggled, "Uh huh, cause remember when you were going to make something with it, and you bought it for the recipe." Ellen did remember now, and she gave Franny a look, "Yes I remember," she sighed as she heard Franny crunching on her Smarties. "So what’s with the diapers?" She asked Franny as she went over to the fridge. Ellen had noticed Franny was wearing one almost the minute she came home but had waited to mention it until now. Franny shrugged and swung her legs back and forth underneath the chair. "Just felt like it." She said smiling at Ellen. Ellen opened the freezer, and peered inside. She frowned for a moment when she saw the crumpled wrapper of a Popsicle inside. She picked it up and turned around. Ellen held up the crumbled white wrapper for Franny to see. "What’s this doing in here?" She asked. Franny stopped crunching and looked at the wrapper. The look on Franny’s face told Ellen that she had left it in there. "Franny, wrappers go in the garbage I told you." Franny looked sorry for a moment. Ellen threw the wrapper in the garbage and went back to the fridge. "I don’t understand why you do that." She said more to herself than to Franny as she pulled out a bag of Frozen French fries and preheated the oven.
Ellen was munching happily on her French Fries. Franny had already finished hers she didn’t want many after eating her Smarties. "So what’s the news?" Franny asked and she rested her head on her arms that were folded on the kitchen table. Ellen finished chewing her French Fry and swallowed. "Well, I have to tell you something that you may or may not be too happy about." Franny lifted her head a little and stared at Ellen. She popped another French Fry in her mouth and then began to chew it slowly while she thought about how to tell Franny. "You know Cassidy?" She asked. Franny nodded and sat silently. "Well she has a problem right now, and because she has a problem, then that means I have a problem from a business stand point." Franny frowned she didn’t understand where this was going but it didn’t sound too good. "Cassidy has no where to live Franny, she was staying with her parents but they are moving and so now she’s faced with the decision of going with them or staying and continuing to work at the store for me." Ellen waited for Franny to absorb the information. "It’s already well in to September and Cassidy is almost competent enough to handle the store on her own. However if I have to hire someone new, then there’s no telling if they will be able to be good enough to handle the holiday season. It’s the busiest time for me, and I need someone who can do it." Franny was having a sinking feeling in her stomach and she sat there with her mouth hanging open. "Now, Franny I offered Cassidy a place to stay here until she can find one of her own."
There it was. The feeling of falling down a dark elevator shaft made Franny’s stomach tighten into a little ball. She sat in utter silence trying to understand what was happening. "But,….. you hate Cassidy." It was all Franny could think of to say. Ellen looked at her she could tell Franny was not taking the news well. "Honey, it’s ok, it won’t be for long. Cassidy is already looking for a place, it may only be a couple of weeks." Franny looked down at the floor, "What if it’s longer, what if she can’t find a place?" Franny asked never looking at Ellen. "It won’t be, I’ll give her a raise if she can’t find a place she can afford." Franny got up from the table and went to the fridge. "Besides, she can stay in the guest room and she said she doesn’t have much stuff to bring. We’ll hardly notice she’s around." Ellen said in a flat tone. Franny closed the fridge and turned around. "You already told her she could stay?" Franny asked feeling angry now. Ellen chuckled a little, "Well yes honey, I had to tell her something she was ready to give her two weeks notice."
"I can’t believe you didn’t even ask me." Franny took a snotty tone. Ellen was taken back with it, and it made her feel angry. "Honey, last time I checked my name was on the mortgage for this house." Ellen said. Franny’s mouth dropped open, she had never felt so betrayed and angry with Ellen before. Ellen realized she had gone too far with that remark and tried to apologize instantly. Franny wasn’t having any of it though and she ran from the kitchen. Ellen got up from her chair just as she heard the bedroom door slam. "Shit," she muttered to herself as she made her way down to the bedroom.
"Franny honey please let me come in and talk." Ellen knocked on the door. There was no sound from the bedroom. She wondered what Franny was doing. For a moment she pictured the door swinging open to find the room empty and the curtains blowing around in the wind. "Franny please I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that I was just upset." Ellen tried to plead her case. There was still no sound from inside the room. "Honey, please understand that I’m only doing this for the book store, it’s for the good of the business muffin." Ellen listened closely she could hear the bedsprings squeak a little as Franny moved around on the bed. "Please unlock the door." Ellen knocked a couple more times and then quit. She was about ready to give up but decided to give it one last shot. "Ok, I’ll tell her she can’t stay, If you’re not happy with it then I’ll tell her the deals off." Ellen waited again, she could hear Franny getting off the bed. A second later the door opened and Franny stood in front of her with red teary eyes. "You mean it?" she asked.
We got into a car away we started rolling
I said, "how much you pay for this?" she said "Nothing man it’s stolen"
Punk Rock Girl! You look so wild lets have a child
We’ll name her Minnie Pearl. Just you and me Punk Rock Girl
-Punk Rock Girl-
-Dead Milkmen-
Ellen took Franny by the arm and guided her over to the bed. She sat down lightly and patted her hand against her thigh for Franny to have a seat on her lap. Franny gave her a sad little girl look and turned around to sit. "Your bum’s pretty wet hey?" Ellen asked as she felt the warm squishy seat of Franny’s diaper against her thigh. Franny looked at her as if to say ‘don’t change the subject.’ Ellen nodded, "Look honey before we decide," Ellen took the time to emphasize the word ‘we’ so that Franny would feel included. "let me just explain the situation. If we don’t do this, then I have to hire someone new for the store, and train them all over again. It’s going to be stressful for me with the holidays coming and it’s not going to be very fun for you either way. We’re kind of involved in the situation weather we like it or not. I just want to do the easiest thing so that we can be happy together. Can you see what I’m trying to say?" Ellen stopped and rubbed Franny’s back a little. Franny nodded quietly but didn’t say anything. "Please try and understand sweetie, I don’t want this any more than you do, but I want to do what’s right for the store. I have to do what’s right for the store right now. Things are bad enough for business, I can’t take any chances not matter how small they might be." Franny remained silent.
Ellen was about to give up and just say forget the whole thing when Franny let out a sigh. "Alright," she sulked, "she can stay here but not for too long." Ellen hugged Franny tightly. "Thank you muffin, thank you so much for going along with this." Ellen felt relieved that Franny was going to allow it. "What about the party?" Franny asked suddenly. "What party?" Ellen was puzzled. "You said we were going to go to Trish’s and Harry baby party at the end of October. How can we do that if she’s living here?" Franny looked concerned. Ellen remembered suddenly and nodded. "Alright I’ll say she has to be out by the end of October, no later." Franny felt somewhat better, though not totally.
Ellen glanced down at her watch; she knew that Cassidy was at the store waiting for her to return so she could go for lunch. It hadn’t been that busy today so she thought Cassidy would be all right for a little while longer. "Ok, I have to get back," Ellen said and she watched Franny’s expression change from uneasy tension to disappointment. She felt bad, "But first… Some one needs a dry bum." Ellen saw a sparkle in Franny’s eye. She smiled and blushed a little. Ellen got up off the bed and went to the closet. Franny lay flat on her back staring up at the ceiling. Her hands were folded together on her chest. Ellen came over and stared down at her as she sat the supplies down on the bed. Franny looked up at her. She couldn’t help but notice how pretty Ellen was. Her ginger hair and sparkling eyes smiled down on her like the sun. She felt warm inside just looking up at those eyes. Ellen smiled, "That’s what I like to see, a happy muffin."
Ellen took hold of the soft elastic waistband of Franny’s pajamas and began to pull them down. The soft cotton fabric made a whispery crinkle as was pulled across the plastic of Franny’s diaper. She lifted her hips off the bed to help Ellen pull her pants down over her bottom, and then let them drop back to the bed again. Ellen looked down upon the wet saggy crotch of the diaper. The sun shone in brightly through the window and fell upon her diaper. It lit the plastic surface of the diaper in a bright light and highlighted the tint of yellow wetness. Franny’s legs were slightly bent at the knee and she lay passively against the soft down comforter on the bed. Ellen bent over slowly and pulled one of the tapes back. Franny tilted her head up and looked down as she heard the tape of the diaper pull away from the plastic. "So wet," Ellen said to Franny with a pouty expression. Franny smiled up at her. The rest of the tapes came off one after another. Ellen grabbed the bulky wet front of the diaper and pulled it down between Franny’s thighs. The soft padding inside was a bright yellow color and had swelled with wetness. The scent of Urine came wafting up. Ellen smiled and pulled the soggy diaper out from underneath Franny’s bottom. She rolled it up and tossed it on the bed beside them. Ellen removed a single baby wipe from the plastic container and wiped Franny quickly. Franny lay idle for the most part not even looking at Ellen. She was beginning to feel a little more sick, and it made it hard for her to enjoy the change. Ellen powdered another diaper and slid it underneath her and taped it up. "There she is!! All clean and dry." Ellen said giving Franny a tickle against her tummy. Franny’s body jerked a little as she felt Ellen tickle her.
Ellen climbed onto the bed and lay down beside Franny for a moment. "It won’t be long, I promise you sweetie," She gave Franny a kiss on the forehead. "It won’t be long and then it can be just you and me again." Ellen brushed her hand through Franny’s hair. Franny’s small finger traced a path up Ellen’s arm. They lay quietly in the sunshine of the room until Franny began to drift off to sleep. Her dreams were troubled and distorted from the illness that invaded her body. When she woke up Ellen was gone.
"A ice cream!! A ice cream!!" She said in a happy voice as she clapped her hands. She was wearing her party dress as she sat at the table. Dan set the bowl of ice cream down on the place mat in front of her. "Use a spoon this time." He said as he went around the table and took a seat across from her. He watched as she picked up her spoon and curled her fist around it. She was still wearing the red nail polish on her nails from the dinner party they had attended for Dan’s office. She looked up at him with a mischievous grin and stuck the spoon into the mound of chocolate ice cream. "Virginia, I mean it." Dan warned her. She looked back at him with a wicked little glint in her big green eyes. "I’m not fooling, if you make a mess you’ll be sorry." Dan picked up his own spoon now and dipped it into the chocolate ice cream. He put the cool metal of the spoon to his lips and tasted the sweet chocolate dissolve into a milky chocolate pool on his tongue. She watched him enjoying the ice cream as she held her spoon up. It had begun to melt and pool around the outer rim of the spoon. She watched as the chocolate milk fell over the edge and hit the place mat in a brown splatter. Dan’s eyes got a little bigger but he hadn’t said anything yet. Another drip fell on the place mat. She could feel the anticipation growing in her belly. "You’d better eat that before it melts." Dan said calmly watching the spoon in her hand. Virginia closed her eyes and smiled as she turned the spoon over. Dan’s eyes got wide as dinner plates as he watched the semi-liquid mound of ice cream slid off the end of the spoon and fall onto the place mat. Virginia stuck the spoon in the ice cream again and pulled up another spoon full. She was just about to put it in her mouth when she felt Dan grab her by the arm. "That’s it!" He pulled her up off the chair. "You can’t have anymore." She was a tall girl, almost as tall as him, but she was thin and light. Virginia swung around and tried to pull away from his grasp. Dan was strong though and he held her. "Daddy you’re hurting me!" She whimpered. He knew she wasn’t being hurt, Virginia always said that when she was being a brat.
Dan guided her forcefully into the bedroom and sat down on the bed. "You have this coming." He said sternly as he pulled her across his lap. He pulled up the back of her light blue cotton dress and exposed the white fabric seat of her pull-up disposable underpants. Virginia kicked her legs furiously, "No! No! No!" she screamed and tried to get off his lap. "Stop kicking Ginia you’re just going to make it worse." He said sternly. "NO! you’re a bad daddy a bad mean daddy." She whimpered. Dan pulled the ass of her pull-ups down and stared down at the crevice of her cheeks. His hand came down swiftly and lay across them with a sharp smack. Virginia closed her eyes and bit down on the knuckle of her fist. A small smile was spreading across her face. It was what she wanted all along. Dan spanked her a few more times and then pushed her onto the bed. Virginia curled up on the mattress and stuck her thumb in her mouth as she stared up at him. Her pull-ups were still pulled down around her thighs and she made no effort to fix them. Dan went over and flipped up the back of her dress again and pulled them up forcefully. "You’re going to stay in here till you behave!" He said in a loud harsh tone. She smiled at him, and then grabbed a pillow off the bed. "I’m a PRINCESS!!" she shouted as she threw the pillow at him and stuck out her bottom lip. Dan jumped on the bed and smothered her with his body. The game was on.
"Where you going for lunch?" Ellen asked. Cassidy shrugged and flung her mousy brown hair over her shoulder, "Probably just to get a sandwich. Did you talk to her?" She asked. "Yeah, I did." Ellen said. "How did she take it?" Cassidy wanted to know. Ellen shrugged and picked up her schedule book, "She was fine with it." Ellen said. Cassidy smiled and gave Ellen a big hug. Ellen hadn’t expected it and she pulled away. "Thank you Ellen, I really appreciate what you’re doing for me." Cassidy said as she picked up her purse to leave for lunch. Ellen watched her head for the door. "Don’t mention it." She said quietly as the door swung open and Cassidy headed out.
The anchor is up; you’ve been swept away
The greatest of teachers won’t hesitate
To leave you there by yourself chained to faith
I alone love you, I alone tempt you, I alone love you
-I alone-
-Live-
The tension in the house had been there for the entire two weeks before Cassidy moved in. Franny seemed withdrawn somewhat, and Ellen worried about her. It had taken her almost a week to get rid of the cold she was suffering from. Although she did her best to comfort her and try to show her that this tough time ahead of them was only temporary, she wasn’t sure if Franny believed it. They hadn’t been intimate for almost the entire two weeks. Ellen tried on a number of occasions to initiate it but Franny had pulled away at the last minute. Ellen was worried, some where in the back of her mind she had known this was a bad idea, and she had refused to listen to the voice in her head. Now she feared that Franny was becoming distant and hurt inside.
It wasn’t with pleasure in her heart when she saw Cassidy’s station wagon pull up out front stuffed to the gills with her belongings. Ellen’s face sank in a frown as she watched it pull up. She took a small sip of her coffee and sighed. It tasted bitter this morning, it reminded her of the mood in the house. Franny came out of the bedroom. Ellen noticed she was wearing her nicest blue skirt and white blouse. She had her hair pulled up with two white barrettes. Franny stood next to her in the window and they watched Cassidy get out of the car. "She’s here," Franny said with a smile. Ellen thought it was strange that Franny seemed so happy. She looked her over. Aside from the fact that she looked like she was dressed for church and even had the hint of perfume she seemed normal. In fact, Franny was beaming. "You seem pretty happy." Ellen said in a tone that was more of a question than a statement. Franny shrugged and smiled again, "What’s done is done, might as well make the best of it." She left Ellen standing at the window and went to go open the door for Cassidy.
It took them a good two hours to unload the station wagon. By the time they were finished the spare room had boxes piled up here and there and some of the bigger stuff like an old rug Cassidy had had in her bedroom was put down in the basement with the rest of the storage. Franny looked sweaty and hot as she stood in the kitchen. Ellen gave her a smile and a pat on the bottom when Cassidy wasn’t looking. Franny didn’t smile back though. Ellen was feeling really bad now. The three of them sat at the kitchen table together and shared a jug of lemonade. Ellen thought it would be a good idea to try and talk out some the feelings of tension so that things could at least be a semi-normal. "Cassidy, we’d appreciate it while you’re here if you don’t have friends over with out asking." Ellen started off, she wanted Franny to know that she was on her side in the matter. Cassidy smiled warmly, "Of course I wouldn’t think of doing that." Ellen nodded and looked at Franny hoping she would bring up some of her concerns. Franny didn’t, she just sat there smiling with her hands folded on the table. Ellen was beginning to get the idea that Franny was threatened by Cassidy and she wondered why she hadn’t seen it before. She felt like kicking herself now for not noticing it. "Franny honey, if you have any concerns feel free to bring them up." Ellen said and gave Franny a light pat on the hand. Cassidy looked over at Franny and grinned. Ellen watched Franny carefully; she looked like she had when they had first arrived at Lake Wamatta. Too frightened to even talk. Ellen rubbed her foot under the table to try and comfort her. She could see Franny was putting on a brave front but she felt bad that Franny was now feeling that uncomfortable in her own home. Franny cleared her throat, "Uhm, well I guess I’m kind of worried about …" she paused as if trying to think of something to say. "About TV," Franny looked around the table. Ellen noticed Cassidy shake her head a bit as if she wondered what Franny was talking about. It made Ellen mad because she knew that Franny was too scared to say how she really felt so she just thought of anything so she wouldn’t look stupid in the discussion. "Sometimes I like to watch my programs, and I don’t want that to be…" She stopped again and swallowed hard. "To be interrupted because someone wants to watch something else?" Franny finished her sentence in a question form and then looked over at Ellen as if she was asking if she had said something good. Ellen smiled warmly at her and held her hand. Cassidy was quiet for a moment, "Don’t worry Franny, you can watch what ever you want." She said in a tone that made you wonder if she was mocking her. "Ok," Franny said so quietly that you almost couldn’t hear her. "Uhm, I think…" Franny placed a finger between her lips and nibbled on her fingernail a little. "I think I’m going to go and rake some of those leaves in the backyard." Ellen felt her heart breaking. "Ok honey." Ellen said, she knew that Franny just wanted to leave the table and was looking for an excuse. Franny got up from the table with her head down still chewing on her fingernail and went to get her shoes. They heard the back door slam a couple minutes later. Ellen and Cassidy sat quietly for a moment or two. "Wow, she’s really sensitive huh?" Cassidy said suddenly. "Yeah she is, she warms up to people pretty quickly though just go easy with her and give her time." Cassidy thought for a moment, "She didn’t seem that shy when I met her a couple times in the book store, are you sure she’s ok with me being here." Ellen didn’t know what to say, she certainly couldn’t tell the truth. "She’s fine with it, just give her time." She said again. Cassidy nodded but didn’t say anything. "Well I think I’m going to go unpack some things in my room. If there’s nothing else you want to talk about?" Ellen shook her head, "No that’s fine you go ahead." Cassidy got up and left the table. Ellen knew she had to talk to Franny.
She found Franny kicking a leaf around in the yard. "Muffin?" she said approaching her, "Sweetie why don’t you come inside it’s kind of cold out here, you’ll get sick again." Franny didn’t look up from her leaf she just pushed it along with the toe of her black pump. "No, I ‘ll be in a little while," she sounded like a very sad little girl. Ellen felt her heart break again. She placed her hand on Franny’s shoulder. "Honey, it’s ok to come in, Cassidy isn’t going to bother us." Franny looked up at her sharply, "How can you say that? She won’t bother us, nothing can be the same while she’s here." Ellen rubbed her back a little, Franny wasn’t wearing a coat and it was pretty cool outside Ellen wanted them to go back in but she knew they couldn’t have this discussion inside either. Franny was right nothing was the same. "Franny I promise you, we’ll get her out of here as quickly as possible." Franny nodded and folded her arms in front of her chest. Ellen smiled and leaned forward; she planted a kiss on the end of Franny’s nose. "Oh my goodness that’s a cold honker," She said. She felt relieved when Franny giggled a bit. She looked back at the house and then at Ellen. "You promise? No longer than she has to be here?" Franny asked. Ellen looked into her dark eyes and watched a light tuft of black hair blow back and forth against her forehead. Ellen thought she had never seen Franny look this pretty in a long time. "I promise," Ellen whispered. The two of them turned and went back into the house.
Dinner went a little better. Franny seemed to be loosening up a bit. She even started a conversation about ducks. Her small hand reached over to get the saltshaker and as she did she turned to Cassidy and said, "Sometimes there’s ducks that land in the backyard, they’re pretty fun to watch." Cassidy seemed to appreciate the effort and nodded saying, "I like ducks too, and it’s pretty funny because birds on the whole don’t interest me too much." She shrugged, "ducks I don’t mind though it’s almost like they’re not even birds." Franny laughed as she sprinkled some salt on her pork chop. "Me and Ellen were followed by a duck in the park once it was really funny." Ellen told the story about the duck and Cassidy thought it was cute. They seemed to be getting into a flow Ellen thought maybe things were going to be ok.
After dinner Ellen washed the dishes, Cassidy dried them and Franny put them away. Everyone took a seat in the living room, and Ellen went to put some coffee on. Franny curled up at the end of the couch and Cassidy took the reclining chair. When Ellen came back into the room she noticed that Franny had turned on the TV and was watching the evening news. Cassidy seemed pretty happy with Franny’s choice as well, she was watching interested in what was on. Ellen placed a cup of coffee in front of Cassidy. Franny didn’t want one. Ellen struck up a conversation about the store as Franny watched the news. Cassidy seemed quiet interested in hearing Ellen’s ideas about promotions and even had a couple ideas of her own which Ellen listened to but dismissed. Cassidy just didn’t have the experience with the store or the location demographics to understand that it wouldn’t fly. She pretended to take them to heart though just so Cassidy wouldn’t feel bad. Ellen and Cassidy had been talking for a good hour when she noticed that Cassidy kept shifting her glance over to the couch. It was like she was taking small glances at something and then pulling her eyes back to Ellen. The first couple times Ellen though something caught her attention outside, but it was dark out there you couldn’t see outside. Finally She realized Cassidy was taking quick looks at Franny. She turned slowly and looked at Franny.
Franny was asleep, she usually did fall asleep after she ate, Ellen hadn’t thought about that. The thing Cassidy couldn’t take her eyes off was not the fact that Franny was sleeping; it was that she was sucking her thumb in plain view of Cassidy. Ellen blushed and felt embarrassed for her. She took hold of Franny’s foot and gave it a little shake. Hoping she would wake up. Franny’s eyes opened slowly, and Ellen was relieved to see Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth before she was fully awake. She hoped that Franny wouldn’t realize she was doing it. She knew Franny would be very embarrassed if she knew Cassidy had seen her doing that. Ellen turned back to Cassidy and shrugged a little and gave her a little smile. She could feel her face was flushed with embarrassment. Cassidy picked up the conversation right where Ellen had left off without saying anything at all. Franny stretched out her legs and yawned, "Are you guys still talking about that?" Franny said quietly trying to wake herself up, "Sorry I blanked out for a second." She said trying to pretend she had only been asleep for a minute or so. Cassidy chuckled, "Pretty boring stuff hey?" She said to Franny. Ellen was glad Cassidy was taking the effort to get along. Franny shrugged, "It’s ok you just have to be in the right mood for it." Cassidy smiled and took the last sip of her coffee, "Well I think I’m going to go read for a while I’m in the middle of a great book right now." Ellen nodded, "What’s it called?" She asked. "Manny’s Men, it’s about a boarding school for boys in the 1940’s" Cassidy looked around suddenly realizing that she was in a situation where she had no place to live, she hadn’t made the connection until just now. Ellen thought it was cute how she could read Cassidy’s thoughts on her face like that. She got up and excused herself quickly. Franny sat up and stretched again.
"Well what’s the plan for this evening?" Franny asked. Ellen smiled, "I don’t know what do you have in mind?" "Well it’s Saturday, we usually rent movies on Saturday cause you don’t have to work tomorrow." Franny said. Ellen nodded in agreement, "You’re right, and it’s your turn to pick them out this week isn’t it?" Ellen said. Franny beamed a smile, "Yup!!" she said and then stopped suddenly. Ellen watched the smile dissipate from her face. Ellen realized why. Last week Franny had wanted to rent, a Disney movie. When Franny watched Disney movies it meant that little Franny watched the Disney movie too as it brought it out of her. Ellen rubbed Franny’s thigh a little, "Honey you can still get your movie, just try and keep little Franny under wraps, you can do that can’t you?" Ellen asked. Franny looked a little upset, but she nodded in agreement.
Franny decided she wanted to change before they went to the video store. Her blue skirt was a little too chilly for the daytime and she knew she’d be freezing if she went out in it during the night. She pulled up her pink cotton slacks and pulled up the zipper just as Ellen came in the bedroom. "Hey there you ready to go?" Ellen asked eyeing the skirt Franny left on the floor. "Yup!" Franny said happily as she turned from the mirror. "Is Cassidy coming?" Franny asked and she shot a glance at the closet. Ellen realized that all of Franny’s things were in there and perhaps Cassidy might take the opportunity to do a little snooping around while they were gone. Ellen was happy to report that Cassidy was coming; she made a mental note to hide Franny’s stuff when they got a chance. Franny smiled wide, "Good," she said and passed by Ellen to leave the bedroom.
The video store was pretty near dead which was amazing for a Saturday night. Franny headed over to the children’s section right away and picked out The Little Mermaid. It was her favorite Disney movie. She had seen it at least five times but she loved it. Franny took it back to Ellen right away and handed it to her. Ellen had the membership to the video store; it was her card they would be rented on. Cassidy glanced at the video and then at Franny for a second. Ellen noticed her eyes drop to the carpet. "Do you want to pick one Cassidy?" Ellen asked. Cassidy looked up, "No that’s ok you can pick one you want to rent." She said to Ellen. Ellen didn’t want to tell her that they usually only rented one video, and it was Franny’s Choice.
"Why don’t we pick one we all want to see?" Ellen said. Cassidy agreed it would be a great idea. Ellen saw Franny get a little touchy that suddenly their ritual Saturday movie rental had changed. She rubbed Franny’s back as they looked over the videos. As they looked at the videos together Franny got quiet for a while. Ellen turned to her, "See anything good honey?" She asked. "Uhm, I don’t think I want to watch mine now. Maybe we can put it back and just pick one good one for everyone." Franny bit down on her bottom lip and nodded at Ellen. Ellen chuckled, "Don’t be silly you’ve been wanting to see this for a long time." She said trying to make it seem that Franny hadn’t seen it yet so she wouldn’t look babyish to Cassidy. "It’s ok, I can see it another time lets get one we all like." Franny said again. "No Franny," Ellen said firmly, "You want to see this one and we’re getting it." Franny got sulky for a moment, and then was quiet. They finally settled on a movie called, "Mementos Of The Heart" it was a girl movie about a man who lost his memory in a car accident and his wife helps him regain it. As they waited in the check out line Franny became fidgety and distracted. "I have to go to the washroom," she whispered to Ellen and then excused herself to go to the bathroom in the store. Cassidy and Ellen stood together in the line up. "She’s sweet," Cassidy said suddenly as they took one step forward in the line. Quiet a crowd had come in while they were deciding which movie to pick. Ellen smiled, "Yeah she is." Cassidy nodded, "She kind of reminds me of a little kid." She said in a way as if she meant something more by it. Ellen wondered what exactly she did mean. "Oh yeah? Why is that?" Ellen smiled big. Cassidy shrugged and pretended to put her thumb in her mouth and then she pointed at the video. "She’s just sweet that’s all." Ellen stuck up for her, "Franny’s very intelligent and caring, she’s had a rough time of it in her life that’s all." Cassidy nodded again, "Don’t get me wrong I’m not putting her down or anything. She just seems innocent you know?" Ellen did know, "She is innocent Cassidy, that’s why I love her." Ellen said in a very serious tone. Cassidy looked down at her feet again. She knew she had crossed a line and she wished she could take it back. Ellen felt sorry for her suddenly, she didn’t know why. "It’s ok," Ellen said bending her head down so she could look into Cassidy’s eyes. Cassidy smiled at her and lifted her head again. "I think Franny’s a cutie really," she added as they made it to the counter. Ellen nodded and started talking to the guy at the counter.
Franny felt a spurt of pee hit her panties before she could pull them down. "Oh no," she gasped; she knew she should have gone to the toilet before they left for the store. She yanked them down and sat as quickly as she could. A cold shudder wracked her body for the sheer relief of it. As her pee splashed loudly into the toilet she pulled the waistband of her panties forward and examined the gusset of her cotton underpants. They were white and had little yellow baby chicks on them. The crotch was a little bit wet but she had gotten them down in time so as not to soak them. She finished her pee as quickly as possible and wiped. She pulled her pants back up and flushed, she hoped she could keep her secret from Cassidy, but if things like this kept happening she wasn’t sure if she would be able to.
I smell sex and candy, who’s that lounging in my chair
Who’s that casting deep fierce stares in my direction
Mama this surely is a dream
-Sex and Candy-
-Marcy Playground-
Franny joined Cassidy and Ellen at the counter just as they finished paying for the video rentals. "Hey, we’re just about finished here." Ellen said as she took the receipt for the rental from the guy behind the counter. The three of them left the store and walked back to the van. "So you guys, want to get some munchies for the movie?" Ellen asked as she unlocked the van and got in. There was a wind blowing out side and it felt brisk. The crotch of Franny’s pants felt damp and cold. She knew it wasn’t noticeable but she could feel it against her. Franny hopped into the passenger seat in the front. "Hmmm, I don’t know I think we got popcorn at home." She said. "I wouldn’t mind getting some chips or something." Cassidy said as she leaned forward placing her hands on the back of the two front seats. Ellen noticed Franny furrow her brow a little as Cassidy said that. She wondered why Franny would have a problem with picking up some potato chips. Ellen glanced over at her, "I wouldn’t mind either actually," She shrugged.
They stopped at a convience store on the way home. Franny lagged behind them in the store and Ellen watched her carefully, she thought Franny was acting strange. She took quick glances at Franny’s ass and crotch she couldn’t see anything but she had the feeling Franny probably didn’t totally make it to the toilet in time. She smiled a little as she watched Franny lurking around the candy section. Ellen crept up beside her and whispered her in her ear. "See anything yummy?" she asked. Franny jumped a little. Franny smiled a little and pointed down to the bubble gum. "Get some if you want muffin." Ellen said quietly. She watched as Franny’s hand went down and closed over the package of watermelon-flavoured gum. They purchased the gum, chips, and a bottle of pop and left the store. As they stepped outside a cold drizzling rain enclosed around them. The three of them got back into the van and headed for home.
It was about five hours after their van pulled out of the parking lot that Anna Cobalt came by the very same convience store. She collected the money that Ellen had given the cashier as well as all the rest of the money in the till. Franny, Ellen, and Cassidy didn’t learn of the robbery until the next morning.
When they were settled in to watch the movie it was decided they would watch Franny’s movie first. Ellen thought she looked kind of sleepy and so she didn’t want to leave Franny’s until last in case they she was too tired to watch it later. She also thought that Franny might want to have a bath or a shower before bed. She was pretty sure Franny had wet herself in the video store. Ellen placed the bowl of chips on the coffee table and took out The Little Mermaid. Franny’s eyes lit up when she saw Ellen pick up her movie first. Ellen smiled down at her, "We’ll watch this one first." She said walking over to the VCR. Franny got a little excited and curled up against the arm of the couch. She noticed Cassidy looking at her and she straightened out a bit, taking on more of a lounging position rather than a cuddly one. Ellen dimmed the lights a little and the movie began to play. She took a seat on the couch beside Franny and they all began to watch the film. Ellen placed her hand against Franny’s calf muscle and caressed it a little. She could feel Franny’s happiness; she knew Franny would be already sucking her thumb by now if Cassidy wasn’t here. She felt a little guilty again and she tried to lose herself in the movie. One of the things Ellen had always wanted to do for Franny was take her to Disneyland. She had added it to her list of things she wanted to do for her a long time ago. She knew Franny would love it. Ellen had been to Disneyland when she was 14; Franny had never been at all. She looked forward to seeing the amazement and wonder on Franny’s face as they enjoyed the magic kingdom. She knew That Franny would have the time of her life. Ellen glanced over at Franny for a moment. She watched her big brown eyes filled with joy as she watched the movie. Ellen couldn’t help but feel a warm feeling in her heart. She wanted to cuddle with her but she thought Cassidy might feel weird about it.
Ellen had no idea if Cassidy was lesbian or not. She thought she might be because Cassidy had applied for the job at the store, but she wasn’t totally sure. Ellen had never asked her, and Cassidy had never mentioned it. As her employer Ellen didn’t think she should try to find out, it wouldn’t be proper to seek information about the private life of her employees. She figured she would find out eventually one way or another.
Towards the end of the movie, Ellen noticed that Franny was hugging herself tightly. "Are you cold Franny?" Ellen asked. Franny nodded and shivered a bit. It was a bit chilly in the room Ellen had noticed that herself. She paused the movie and got up. "I’ll get some blankets, do you want one Cassidy?" Cassidy was sitting with her legs crossed and her arms folded as well. "Yes please it is a bit chilly." She said looking up and Ellen with a smile. Ellen nodded and went off to the linen closet. "Are you liking the movie Franny?" Cassidy asked. She had seen it a long time ago and thought it was strange that Franny hadn’t seen it yet. "Yeah!" Franny smiled, "It gets better in the end." She said as she rubbed her hands up and down her arm. Cassidy’s eyes got big for a second, and then she tried to regain her composer. "I thought you hadn’t seen it before." Cassidy said. Franny knew she was caught in a lie, her mouth dropped open for a second. "We’ve seen the ending already when we were visiting my sister and her children last year." Ellen said as she came back in carrying the blankets. Franny nodded in agreement. Ellen handed out the blankets; she was feeling quiet proud of her self for thinking of a lie so quick. Ellen didn’t even have a sister.
Franny looked quiet upset for the rest of the movie. She didn’t like being caught in a lie, and she felt angry that she had to lie in the first place. She pouted through the entire ending of the movie, which was her favourite part. After it was over Ellen grabbed the remote and pushed the button to rewind it. "Did you like it honey?" Ellen asked as she glanced over at Franny’s sad little face. Franny nodded but didn’t say anything, she just scratched at her shoulder a little. Cassidy sighed for a moment and then finally spoke up. "Franny, if you liked the movie and wanted to watch it again, why didn’t you just say so. It doesn’t have to be a big deal I don’t care." Franny glanced over at her unsure of what to say. No one had expected Cassidy to say that. "It’s fine, you know I don’t want to make you feel like you can’t be yourself, and I appreciate you two allowing me to stay here." Ellen wondered for a moment if Cassidy really would be happy if Franny behaved as she normally would. She thought probably she wouldn’t but didn’t say anything. Cassidy waited for few moments to get a reaction, when no one said anything she shrugged and started to get up. "Think I’ll just turn in for the night." She said quietly and started to walk off for the bedroom. "Cassidy wait," Ellen said, "We’re sorry I hope we haven’t made you feel uncomfortable." She stopped for a moment and glanced over at Franny. "Yeah I’m sorry Cassidy." Franny said. Cassidy turned around and placed both hands on her hips. "Look you guys I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable. It was never my intention to do that." Ellen nodded, "I think we all just need some time to adjust, that’s all." Franny didn’t like the sound of that, "having time to adjust meant you were preparing yourself for a period of long term difference." Franny sat up as Cassidy came back in and sat down. "Look," she said, "I know you guys are a couple and everything and that’s fine with me honestly if you want to show each other affection or whatever then do it, I don’t care." Ellen tilted her head to the side a little, "You’re not…" she paused for a moment, "lesbian?" she finished. Cassidy smiled a little, "Uhm.. Well yeah, I am." She said, but that’s not what I was talking about. "Just because I’m a lesbian doesn’t mean that I’d be comfortable watching you two being intimate does it?" Cassidy said defensively. Ellen chuckled a little, Cassidy was right. Straight people aren’t always happy when they see straight couples making out and or fondling each other in public. It was short sighted and a generalized to think that lesbians would be comfortable watching lesbian couples making out. "You’re correct about that, I apologize." Ellen said. Cassidy nodded but didn’t say anything. "Anyway, my point is that this is your home, and you’ve allowed me to stay here, I am the one who has to put up with you two not the other way around."
Ellen smiled as Franny pulled a chip out of the bowl and held her hand delicately under her chin as she bit into it to catch any crumbs that fell. "If you want to watch the same Disney movie everyday, for the next three months then I have to deal with that Franny not you. I’m the one who has to make concessions because you have done me a favour by allowing me to stay here." Cassidy said as she watched Franny put the rest of the chip in her mouth and chew it up. Franny wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and nodded in understanding. They were silent for a while, everyone was absorbing the discussion. Franny was gobbling on the chips and Ellen watched her reach her hand out for what would have been a fourth handful. "You’re hungry tonight." She joked. Franny stopped and looked up at her. "I guess your pork chops didn’t fill me up." She said in a smug way. Ellen’s mouth dropped open. "Oh my god I can’t believe you just said that to me." Ellen said. She wasn’t sure if Franny was kidding or not so she waited for Franny to say something to indicate that she was. Franny didn’t say anything. Ellen turned to Cassidy, "you can put the movie in and watch it if you want, I think Franny and I have to talk." Cassidy looked uncomfortable, "Uhm think I’m just going to turn in for the night." "Why? I’m going to watch the movie." Franny proclaimed as she got up and picked up the video off the table. Ellen stared at her hard until Franny got the notion that the spoiled princess routine had gone a little too far. Franny slowly put the video down and went back to the couch. Cassidy got up and said good night to everyone, she closed her bedroom door behind her. Ellen was on Franny instantly, "What the hell was all that about?" She snapped. Franny shrugged and stared at the blank TV. "I don’t know why you’re so upset I was just kidding." Franny said. She looked quiet pouty and Ellen got the idea she was sorry she had said it. Franny grabbed her bubble gum off the table and tore open the package. She took out a square and removed the paper from around it and popped it in mouth. She stared aimless at the wrapper of the gum. Ellen knew she didn’t want to look at her. "Franny that hurt me when you said that." Ellen said in a flat listless tone. No sooner had she said it than she saw tears welling up in Franny’s eyes. "I’m sorry," She said with trembling lips. Her mouth was partly open and you could see the semi-chewed piece of gum on her tongue. "Honey, why did you say that then?" Ellen said feeling her heart melting away the anger that had been there a moment before. Ellen watched as a tiny clear stream of liquid run out from one of Franny’s nostrils. She sniffled and wiped her nose with her hand. "I’m sorry," she said quietly again shaking her head. "It’s just hard for me to get used to this." She said. Ellen sighed and rubbed her hand against the arm of the couch. "I know sweetie, but you know what? I love you, not Cassidy." Franny started crying harder when Ellen said that. Ellen was baffled, "Honey…" she paused, "did you think there was something between Cassidy and me?" Franny nodded her head and wiped her eyes with the sleeve of her blouse. "Oh my god, Franny no." Ellen said, "I promise you there’s not, there never will be." Ellen was about to say Cassidy was far too young, but the truth was she was only a year younger than Franny. Franny snuggled over close to Ellen and hugged her tight. "Shh, shh, shh," Ellen held her tightly and rocked her back and forth until she stopped crying. " I think we have a tired girl here." Ellen whispered gently in her ear. Franny nodded and wiped her eyes. "Come one muffin, lets give you a bath and get your jammies on." Franny snuggled her head closer to Ellen.
Ellen filled the tub up really full and poured in some Mr. Bubble. When the temperature was right, she turned to Franny and started unbuttoning her pants. She pulled them down over Franny thighs and made her step out of them. Franny stood with her legs closed tightly together. Ellen smiled at her warmly, "What are you hiding?" She asked. Franny shook her head. Ellen bent over and extended her arm holding her hand flat. She wedged it in between Franny’s thighs just under the crotch of her panties. Franny’s thighs felt warm and soft, and the crotch of her panties felt damp to the touch. Ellen forced her thighs apart a little. She hooked a finger in the leg band of the panties and pulled the crotch outwards. A yellow stained displayed what Ellen had already known. "Didn’t quite make it huh?" She asked quietly as she let the crotch of the panties snap back into place. Franny blushed a little and looked over at the tub. She twirled her hair around her finger a little and stuck out her bottom lip. Ellen grabbed the waistband of Franny’s panties and slid them down over her hips. The gusset of her panties stuck a little as she pulled them down. They were a little gooey and the inside displayed the faint yellow oval of her accident. Ellen drew them down over her calves to the floor and Franny lifted her feet to step out of them. Ellen took them on the end of her finger and put them to her nose giving them a sniff. "Yucky, pissy," Ellen teased her and let them drop to the floor. Franny spread her legs a little and displayed her pink labia to Ellen. Ellen smiled and stepped forward to unbutton Franny’s blouse. She slid it over her shoulders and let it fall off as well. Franny’s pink nipples were erect, as Ellen had ever seen them. She smiled at Franny, "Mmmmm, those look yummy." She said running a hand delicately over Franny’s shoulders. Ellen leaned forward and kissed Franny deeply as her hand went around the back to cup one of Franny’s bum cheeks. Franny groaned and thrust her hips forward to press her pelvis against Ellen’s slacks. "That’s my girl," Ellen whispered as she held Franny tightly her hands ran over the fleshy warm orbs of Franny’s bottom. "Sit on the potty before you get in the tub ok Sweetie." Ellen whispered as she guided Franny down on the toilet seat. Franny took a seat and looked up at Ellen. She smiled warmly up at her. Ellen heard her pee tinkling in the toilet a moment later and Franny leaned forward to place the side of her face against Ellen’s tummy. Ellen stoked the back of her head. "Such a good big girl," She said. Franny placed her thumb in her mouth and looked up at her. "You wipe and get in the tub ok honey, I’m going to get your jammies." Ellen left the bathroom.
She grabbed Franny’s pajama’s off the bed and started back for the washroom. As she got into the hall, Cassidy’s door opened. Ellen stopped, "Hi," she said a little surprised, she had almost forgotten Cassidy was there. "Hey, are you using the washroom?" Cassidy asked. "Yeah just giving Franny a bath," Ellen said quickly. She cringed as soon as she said it. She knew that was going to sound weird to Cassidy. She looked at Ellen for a moment and then nodded and turned back for her room. "Shit," Ellen said to herself, and went into the bathroom locking the door behind her.
"Giving Franny a bath?" Cassidy said to herself as she leaned against the bedroom door. She was a little upset; Cassidy had been hoping that Franny and Ellen had gone to bed so she could use the washroom in peace. "What is she a fucking baby?" Cassidy asked and threw herself on the bed. She shook her head a little, "Franny is one weird chick." She thought, "Maybe that’s a good thing." Cassidy smiled as she crawled back under the covers.
Pick a song and sing; a yellow nectarine
Take a bath I’ll drink the water that you leave
If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend
Pick a flower hold your breath and drift away

The water felt warm and caressing on her skin. The tub was very full; it came up just to below her belly button. Franny splashed around in the bubbles with her hands until Ellen came back in. "Hey muffin!" Ellen said placing Franny’s pajamas on the counter by the sink. Franny stopped splashing with her hands for a moment, "How come you closed the door?" Franny asked. The bathroom door rarely got closed and Franny thought it was odd. "Well," Ellen paused, "just thought it would safe to do in case Cassidy gets up or something." She didn’t want to tell Franny that Cassidy was already up and knew Ellen was giving her a bath. Franny splashed a couple more times with her hands. She brought the flat palms of her hands down on to the soft soapy bubbles. They scattered when she did, and left a film of clear transparent air bubbles floating on the surface. "Water warm enough?" Ellen asked standing over her in the tub. "Uh huh," Franny nodded and looked up. Ellen smiled down at her with love in her eyes. She couldn’t help but think of how delicious Franny looked. Her pink rosey nipples protruding from her small breasts, the light unblemished skin covering her body, had not a wrinkle or stretch mark anywhere. Franny’s face always looked so innocent, Ellen had decided long ago it had to do with her big dark eyes. They were dark brown like puppy dog eyes and her lips were pouty and firm. "What are you looking at?" Franny looked up at her smiling. "Nothing," Ellen shook her head and smiled back. Ellen got down on her knees beside the tub. Franny bit down on her bottom lip and turned her big warm eyes to her as she folded her hands in her lap under the water. Ellen chuckled, "What’s that look for?" Franny giggled and kicked her feet a little making water splash into the air. "Settle down your going to get the floor wet." Ellen picked up the sponge on the side of the tub and dipped it in the water. Franny raised one eyebrow, "I can wash myself," she said innocently. "Can you?" Ellen asked working some lather into the sponge. "You’re a big girl huh?" Ellen asked. "Yes!" Franny proclaimed. "You can do it yourself hey?" Ellen teased. "Yes!!" Franny was getting excited her voice took on the high-pitched giggling tone when she talked. "Hmmmm, I don’t know about that." Ellen said as she started rubbing the soft sponge on Franny’s back. Franny bent over and let her scrub without voicing any more concern that she was too big to be bathed.
Ellen’s eyes wandered down the bumpy protrusion of Franny’s spine, to the top of her bum crack, which could just be seen under the water as Franny leaned forward. Ellen leaned over the edge of the tub and pushed her mouth to Franny’s ear. "I can see your bum." She whispered and gave Franny a lick behind her ear. Franny laughed loudly and rubbed her ear as she felt the cool moisture of Ellen’s tongue invade the sensitive area behind her ear. "Don’t look at my bum!" Franny laughed. Ellen looked pouty for a moment, "Awwwe, it’s such a cute bum," She teased. Franny smiled at her big time and got up on her knees quickly. Her bottom looked pink from the warm water and filmy soap bubbles began to slowly run down her cheeks. Franny chuckled and wiggled her hips a bit and gave herself a smack on the ass. She turned her head back to look at Ellen as she smiled. "Having a good look?" She asked. Ellen chuckled and reached her hand out to give Franny a pinch on the bum cheek. "Sit down you silly nut," Ellen chuckled, "You’re going to slip and bonk your noggin." Franny laughed and sat back down.
"Come on! Out of the tub." Ellen said sternly holding up a large bath towel for Franny to step into. Franny got out and was encased in the soft towel. Ellen rubbed her dry and grabbed her pajamas off the counter. Ellen made her step into the pants of her pajamas. Franny smiled and pulled them up her legs. They were soft flannel and they felt good next to her skin. She pulled them up extra high so the crotch of the jammies would scratch teasing against her when she walked. Ellen pulled the top over her head and down over her torso as Franny pushed her arms in the sleeves. "There you go already for bed." Ellen gave her a smack on the bum. Franny giggled again and stamped her feet a little. Ellen laughed, "Get into bed, you’re getting goofy." Franny complied and started off to the bedroom.
Franny tucked herself safely under the covers and waited for Ellen to come in. Ellen usually was the last one to turn in for the night, for one she always had to have a glass of milk before she turned in for the night. She also liked to double-check all the doors to make sure they were locked. With the doors all secured Ellen stood in the kitchen having her glass of milk. "Milk!" the thought flashed in her mind made her remember. She quickly went to the cupboard and saw it sitting in plain view. Her mind raced for a moment trying to remember if Cassidy had looked in this cupboard today. She didn’t think she had and she began to relax a little. Franny’s bottle was in the cupboard nicely washed and set in there for next time. She took it out of the cupboard and looked at it for a moment. She remembered buying it for her at Lake Wamatta. Franny had left it unwashed in the back of the van, and the juice was hard in sticky in there. She smiled at it for a moment and opened the fridge and took out the milk. "She’ll be happy," Ellen thought to herself as she filled up the bottle with the milk. She turned and put it in the microwave to warm it up.
Franny heard the microwave come on and she lifted her head off the pillow. "What is she doing?" She thought to herself. Franny furrowed her brow and shook her head, "Making popcorn?" she asked. She shook her head again; Ellen wouldn’t make popcorn before bed. She put her head back down and picked up Puffy from off the bed. She sat him on her chest and pulled on his ears a bit as she waited for Ellen.
Cassidy opened her eyes, it was dark in the room and she felt panic for a moment, as she couldn’t identify where she was for a second. Wherever she was, the laws of nature had not changed, people still needed to use the washroom; Cassidy had to go bad. "Ellen’s house," She whispered to herself when she remembered. Cassidy through off the covers and felt around on the floor by her bed for her slippers. "Shit where are they?" She asked in a panic as she clenched her teeth. Cassidy didn’t like to walk around with out her slippers. When she lived at home their old house had no carpeting and as a result the floors in the winter were ice cold. Over the years she had been conditioned to wearing some type of footwear, she felt odd with out it. She found the slippers and put them on quickly and stumbled towards the door still half asleep.
Ellen was just walking through the door to their bedroom when Cassidy stepped out in the hall. Ellen turned back to see her walking in a groggy state toward the bathroom. "Night!" Ellen whispered to her closing their bedroom door quickly and trying to hide Franny’s bottle at the same time. "We have to do something about this," she thought to herself as she went over to the bed. Franny was smiling hugely at the bottle Ellen was carrying and she gave Puffy a big squeeze. "Hi sweetie," Ellen whispered, as she climbed into bed beside her. Franny tucked Puffy into her chest and hugged him as she lay her head down in the crook of Ellen’s shoulder. "Want some baba?" she whispered sweetly to Franny. Franny smiled up at her and nodded that she did. Ellen pushed the light orange colored nipple in between Franny’s lips and felt her begin to suck on the bottle. She smiled down at her and brushed her hand through Franny’s hair. Franny held one side of the bottle with her hand while Ellen’s hand was tilting the bottle up and holding it steady. "It’s time to go to sleep now hey muffin." She said softly. Franny’s big brown eyes looked up at her innocently. Ellen could hear a slight whistling noise as she pushed air out of her nostrils. The quiet comfort of the situation made Ellen feel sleepy as well just watching her enjoying the bottle. It also eased the ache of her internal clock that had started to tick a few years back, she thought maybe that’s why it was no real bother for her to do this for Franny, in a way it helped her too.
Cassidy sat quietly on the toilet. Her eyes were scrunched a little tight from the brightness of the light in there. She had her elbows on her knees propping her head up and she peed. The hissing and splashing of her urine seemed loud and made her feel edgy. She pictured the two them listening to her pee and it made her feel like her most private of functions was on display for the world to see. "Shut up!" she thought to her self wishing the flow would slow down a little so it wouldn’t be so loud. Finally it did taper off and she began to look around the bathroom. She noticed the bottle of Mr. Bubble sitting on the edge of the tub and she picked it up. "God, who uses this stuff anymore?" she asked herself, the answer came back swiftly, "Franny."
"Do you want a story before we go to sleep?" Ellen asked. Franny’s bottle was only a quarter finished and Ellen thought she might as well read to her too as she had nothing else to do while Franny was finishing her bottle. Franny nodded again and kicked her leg a little against the mattress. A small milky smile curled up the corner of her lips around the nipple of the bottle. Ellen thought she looked really peaceful. "Hold this then," she whispered as she waited for Franny’s other hand to take the bottle. Ellen let go of it and felt around on the floor beside the bed for the book of bedtime stories. She picked it up and opened it up to look for a good one.
Ellen had bought her the book last Christmas, it was their first Christmas together and Ellen purchased it from her own store of course. It was a very nice book with deep red leather bound covers and gold embossed pages. The pages them selves were very thick and glossy. It was a more of a collector’s item, than an actual book for reading, but Ellen thought it would make a great gift for Franny, and it had they used it quite often.
"The King, his Council and the goat…" Ellen announced the title of the story and looked down at Franny. She smiled and nestled her head closer to the side of Ellen’s breast as she sucked on her bottle. "The King! The King! His council would sing when he ventured in to every room. The King! The King! The people would ring, when they saw his merry old cloak. All would pay homage and all would bow down all except a goat wore a big frown. Said the King to the goat with utter dismay, why not pay homage I am the King why do you frown this way?" Ellen paused and smiled down at her again. Franny smiled back, looking content as her eyes grew heavy. Ellen continued with the story.
Cassidy flushed the toilet and crept out of the bathroom and started back down the hall. As he passed by Franny and Ellen’s bedroom she heard voices from within. A feeling of guilt chewed at the back of her mind as she stopped and listened at the door. She shouldn’t be doing this but she was curious as to what they were talking about.
"…Said the King to the goat with a tear in his eye would you love me if I were a pie?" "A pie? No never shook the goat’s head like ever, a pie doesn’t suit me at all." "How about gold then, would I and could I be considered the leader of men?…"
Cassidy furrowed her brow; she couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Ellen was reading Franny a bedtime story. She shook her head and went down the hall. "Better make sure she goes wee wee before she goes to sleep." Cassidy snickered to herself as she got back in bed. "This is one weird house," she thought to herself as she pulled the covers up. She was asleep again with in minutes.
It’s not having what you want; it’s wanting what you’ve got

The storage room had no carpet. It should have but it didn’t, it was listed in the description of the house as a recreation room in the basement but it wasn’t carpeted. Ellen looked around the boxes piled up against the bare cement walls of the basement. The one thing the basement did have besides the laundry room was a bathroom. Ellen sighed as she looked around she wondered if she could convince Cassidy to move in down here, at least she would have her own bathroom, and they would have some privacy. The downstairs bathroom was finished nicely; it even had its own shower stall. It was the only room down there that was. The previous owner had never finished the rest. The recreation room was very large it took up over half of the entire houses length. Ellen figured they could move all the boxes over to one section of the room instead of having them scattered about. Cassidy did bring a very large rug with her when she moved in; it had almost completely covered her entire bedroom at her parent’s house so she said anyway. Ellen figured they could put that down on the floor and it would be like a room for Cassidy with her own bathroom. Ellen turned and went back up stairs.
Neither of them were awake yet as Ellen started down the hall for the bedroom, she thought she’d wake Franny up pretty soon. As she opened the door to the bedroom Cassidy was coming out of the bathroom. "Morning," Cassidy said in a scratchy voice. "Hi!" Ellen whispered closing the bedroom door again so Cassidy wouldn’t see Franny curled up on the bed holding Puffy and sucking her thumb. Cassidy’s eyes caught sight of the big brown teddy bear as Ellen was shutting the door. She smiled, "Franny still asleep?" she asked pleasantly. "Yeah," Ellen said and paused, "You want a coffee?" she asked, Ellen figured she’d make Cassidy a coffee and then come in and wake up Franny. Cassidy nodded that she did and she turned to follow Ellen to the kitchen. As they waited for the coffee to brew Cassidy leaned on the counter rubbing her eyes. "Did you sleep good?" Ellen asked. "Yeah I did! Had a little trouble getting to sleep but once I did I really slept deeply." Cassidy lied, she had been awake off and on all night, but she wanted to be polite. Ellen smiled as she took a coffee cup down out of the cupboard. She set it down for her and poured some in. She poured a cup for herself next and took a sip of it to wake herself up. "Ellen?" Cassidy asked she paused and swallowed hard and looked a little nervous. "Uh huh?" Ellen said sipping her coffee. "Is Franny…," Cassidy paused, "Is she special?" Ellen almost choked on her coffee. "What? No, she’s not. Why would you think that?" Ellen asked. Cassidy traced her finger around the top of her coffee mug, she was feeling stupid now and wished she hadn’t asked. "Just cause, sometimes she seems like she’s well…" She paused again, "Like she’s a little girl you know?" Ellen felt her throat close tightly a couple times as she tried to think of an explanation.
Ellen took a seat at the kitchen table, "Well, she kind of different Cassidy, sometimes it’s like she is little you know? But she’s very smart and doing well on her degree. But you knew she was going to school didn’t you?" Ellen asked. "Yes I did, but sometimes mentally challenged people attend University you know, it’s not only for people who are going to be Doctors." Ellen nodded, "She’s working on her Sociology degree." Ellen said putting her cup down. "Wow!" Cassidy said, and was quiet. "Yeah she’s a smart girl," Ellen nodded, "Sociology isn’t rocket science or even psychology, but it is a pretty difficult degree program." Ellen added. "What’s the difference between sociology and psychology?" Cassidy asked; Ellen shrugged. "Sociologists think that we behave the way we do based on our environment, psychologists think it’s more of a biological thing. From what Franny’s told me anyway." "Does Franny think that? That its all environment?" Ellen chuckled, "Franny thinks whatever will get her a passing grade in her classes, it’s the fatal flaw of all post secondary institutions."
"What are you guys talking about?" Ellen set her coffee down as she heard Franny’s voice behind her. "You," she smiled at Franny who was currently standing in her jammies with her hair all stringy and matted from sleep. "I was just telling Cassidy about your school." Ellen said. Cassidy smiled and nodded at Franny, "Very impressive!" She said to Franny. Franny looked crabby for a moment and rubbed her eyes. Ellen chuckled, "Do you want some coffee pumpkin?" Franny nodded that she did and stumbled over to the table to sit down. "Did you sleep good pumpkin?" Ellen asked setting her coffee down in front of Franny and stroking down some stubborn hair that were sticking out the back of her head. "Yeah I guess," Franny shrugged. Ellen recognized Franny was going to be in one of her moods and so she backed off to let her wake up a little. By the time she finished half her coffee Franny seemed to be coming around, and didn’t seem as crabby. Ellen asked her if she wanted a warm up on her coffee. She nodded that she did, "How did you sleep Cassidy?" Franny asked. "I slept like a baby." Cassidy said with a smile that made Ellen a little nervous. Franny didn’t seem to notice as she blew on the coffee before taking a sip. "Its Sunday there’s probably some cartoons on TV Franny, do you like to watch cartoons on the weekends? I do sometimes." Cassidy asked suddenly. Franny put her cup down slowly and stared at her. "What?" she asked and shot Ellen a dirty look. Ellen’s mouth was hanging open. "What?" Cassidy asked in an innocent tone, "I like to watch them, I figured you would too is all, I didn’t mean anything by it." "Why would you figure that?" Franny asked and looked at Ellen again. Ellen shook her head as if to proclaim her innocence. "Ok, that’s it," Cassidy said pushing her cup away. "I’ve had enough," She started to get up from the table, "I wont be attacked every time I open my mouth." Cassidy had tears in her eyes as she got up. "Ellen thank you for the offer but I think I will just call my parents and tell them I’m going to move with them." Cassidy left the kitchen and went to the bedroom. Franny sat quietly for a moment. "Jesus Franny, why did you jump on her like that?" Ellen asked. "I can tell about my own school!" Franny snapped. "I know you can sweetie," Ellen patted her hand. "You think I can’t do anything, but I can and I do at school all the time!!" Franny said sharply. "Muffin, I don’t think that what’s wrong with you?" Ellen asked. She knew but she had to ask anyway. Ellen usually woke Franny up and they would have coffee at the table just as Ellen and Cassidy had been doing when Franny woke up. Ellen figured Franny was a bit upset when she saw the two of them sitting there together. "NOTHING! Can’t I just be angry? Do I have to have a reason? Why are you the one who gets to be angry all the time?" Franny slapped her hand down on the table. "Honey, I was just going to wake you up, Cassidy and I were just waiting for the coffee to finish brewing before I came in." Ellen explained. Franny’s anger seemed to drain away a little and was replaced by embarrassment. She looked pouty for a moment and then folded her arms. "Franny please, go in and apologize. For the store." Ellen said as she rubbed Franny’s arm a little. Franny sighed and looked over at the wall. "Alright," She said but she didn’t seem too happy about it. Franny slowly got up and went in to apologize.
The bedroom door was shut and Franny felt a little nervous as she knocked on it. "It’s open Ellen," Cassidy called from inside. Franny paused and put her hand slowly to her side, obviously Cassidy hadn’t thought that she would come to apologize. "It’s Franny, can I still come in?" She asked. There was a silence for a moment or two. "Yeah sure come on in." Cassidy said. Franny turned the doorknob and went inside.
"Cassidy, I’m sorry." She said as she watched Cassidy packing some of her stuff into a suitcase. "Yeah, don’t be it’s ok. I would probably feel the same way if some one moved into my house with my girlfriend." "No, it wasn’t right for me to feel that way, I’m sorry." Cassidy nodded but didn’t say anything. "You know it’s pretty funny." Cassidy said and then stopped and shook her head, "Nevermind." "No what?" Franny asked. "Well if you told a guy that we were all living here together and that we were all lesbians he would probably come up with all of these disgusting fantasies about what we did to each other. You’d think he was a pig for not understanding that three women can live together and even be lesbians with out having sexual relations. Yet, you are doing the exact same thing, you think I’m here to try and weasel my way in to your relationship with Ellen." Cassidy chuckled, " Why don’t you discuss that in your Sociology class sometime." Franny dropped her head, "I’m sorry you’re right please don’t leave. I mean it, Ellen needs you, you are important to the store and that means you are important to me." Cassidy stopped packing and looked at her, "Really? Ellen said that? That I was important to the store?" She asked. Franny tried not to roll her eyes, "Yeah, she said that Cassidy." Cassidy took a seat on the bed, and brushed the hair out of her face. "Franny I don’t want it to be like this between us. I want to get my life together and Ellen’s helping me by giving me a job, and letting me stay here." Cassidy had tears in her eyes again and Franny felt sorry for her even if she didn’t want to. "I like getting up and going to work, because it makes me feel good about myself, and I want to find a place of my own. I’m thankful that Ellen is helping do that, I don’t want to cause trouble for her at home." Franny suddenly felt very bad about herself, she hadn’t thought of it that way before. She nodded quietly. "If I stay can we try and get along for Ellen?" Cassidy asked. "Yes, we can, again I’m so sorry I treated you badly." Franny actually was sorry now and she hated the way it made her feel. "Franny I’m a very easy going person and not much bugs me, I do want us to be friends." Cassidy said standing up. Franny went over and gave her a hug.
Ellen waited for a response. She hoped Cassidy would go for it. "Ellen I think that’s a great idea!" She said with a smile. "It would be good for all of us to have a little more space and everything." Ellen eyed her for moment trying to decide if she was telling the truth or just going along with it. When she was satisfied that Cassidy would be ok with it she nodded. "Alright then, but are you sure you don’t mind? You’ll have to use your own rug from your bedroom down there cause its all cement. The only room down there with dry wall is the bathroom, and there’s only one small space heater in the recreation room, and one in the bathroom. That’s it, it could get chilly." Cassidy nodded again and smiled, "I don’t mind, I didn’t even want to bring the rug with me but I had to cause my parents were selling the house, you guys can keep it if you want. Take it as payment for letting me stay." Ellen nodded again, "Ok, sounds fair." She looked over at Franny who was munching on a bowl of Sailor McCrunch cereal. Franny was sitting at the table in her pajamas still; her body was hunched over the bowl shovelling the cereal in her mouth. She turned her eyes to Ellen and wiped a drip of milk off her bottom lip with the back of her hand, "What?" she asked as she chewed. "Well how do you feel about it munchy mouth?" Franny snickered a bit and shrugged, "I don’t care." She said innocently and went back to her cereal. Ellen rolled her eyes and turned back to Cassidy.
It took a good half of the day to move the boxes over to one side of the room, lay Cassidy’s carpet and bring the bed from the spare room upstairs down to the basement but when it was done they sat down on the rug down there and had coffee and a sandwich. Ellen was surprised to see Cassidy and Franny getting along so well. They had been talking and laughing together as if they had known each other for a long time. Cassidy and Franny seemed to be connecting on a level based on age, Ellen felt a little out of place. They helped Cassidy make her bed again and brought some toiletries down from the bathroom upstairs. Cassidy jumped on her bed and stretched out. "Its like I have my own little place down here! Its great! I love it, thank you guys!" She seemed genuinely happy with it and Ellen gave her a smile. "You sure you don’t mind all these boxes piled up down here?" Ellen asked, "No! Not at all!" Cassidy said with a big smile. Ellen and Franny left Cassidy alone to get settled in her new accommodations. "See you in a bit!" Franny said to her as they turned to leave. Cassidy nodded and smiled as she watched Franny’s behind ascending the stairs to the livingroom.
She’s been looking like a queen in a sailors dream
And she don’t always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it’s shame when I get feeling better
When I’m feeling no pain.

Franny was holding the Popsicle by the stick. She gave the strawberry treat the occasional innocent glance as she wrapped her lips around in and sucked. She would pull it out slowly, her lips still enclosed around its frozen surface as the tried to get every last ounce of juice out of it as she could. By the time the Popsicle reached it’s end it would make a loud sucking pop as she pulled it from her lips. Ellen was trying to watch TV, however it was a hard thing to do when she kept hearing "Sluuuurp POP! Sluuuuurp POP!" coming from the couch. "Franny," she said turning her head to look at Franny. "Either eat it properly or don’t eat it at all." She said sternly. Franny looked at her for a moment, her mouth hanging open with the Popsicle still sitting on her bottom lip. "I am," she said taking it from her mouth and pouting. "Stop making noises with it, just lick it or something I can’t watch TV when you’re doing that it annoys me." Ellen tried to explain but she could see it was useless cause little Franny had decided to defend big Franny for making annoying Popsicle noises. Ellen watched for a moment as Franny sulked and looked for a place to put her Popsicle down. She was about to place it on the table when Ellen jumped in, "If you put that there… Oh are you going to be sorry missy." "What am I apposed to do wif it?" she whined. "Get a plate, you don’t put your Popsicle down on the table. Come on don’t be silly." Franny sulked some more and then got off the couch and went into the kitchen. Ellen heard her rummaging through the cupboards. The clinking and clanking of dishes made her skin crawl. She could see the chips forming on the edges of the plates already. Ellen recognized the situation for what it was Franny was looking for some attention. "Franny!…" Ellen called in a voice that trailed off. "What are you doing in there?" There was silence for a moment. "I’m getting a plate like you said." She said in an innocent voice. "Well pick one and hurry up." Ellen answered back. There was quiet for a few moments till Ellen heard Franny go, "Oh!" and then silence again. Ellen closed her eyes slowly and took a deep breath. When she opened them again she found herself standing in the kitchen watching Franny picking up her Popsicle off the floor. When Franny had cleaned up the Popsicle off the floor she turned and went back to the freezer. Ellen stopped her, "No, I don’t think so." She said in a sharp tone Franny paused and shut the freezer door and turned around slowly. "You’re not having another one." Ellen said. Franny stood there looking at her and then rubbed her eye with the back of her hand. This was proving to be a difficult day with Franny.
The morning had started off great! Cassidy and Franny were beginning to feel comfortable around each other, and Franny felt secure enough to watch Friendly Bears this morning with Puffy on her lap. Cassidy thought it was cute and smiled at her warmly as she came into the room. Ellen had noticed a change in Cassidy over the past two weeks. Cassidy seemed to be picking up on Franny’s transformations from baby mode to big Franny mode, even more amazing to Ellen was the fact that Cassidy adjusted her self accordingly. She would talk to Franny using different tones; a soft nurturing tone for when Franny was little, and a more mature respectful tone for when she was big. Ellen was surprised she had picked up on the two Franny theory much quicker than she had. For the most part it made her happy to see the two of them getting along, but in the back of her mind the woman in her said "the bitch is stepping places where she shouldn’t be stepping." Ellen kept it in mind and quietly waited.
"Franny if you want to have some attention that’s fine but don’t use Popsicles to get it." Ellen said as she heard the closing comments on the show she had waited all day to watch. She was getting frustrated with Franny. "Ellen I just wanted my POPSCILE!" Franny said stamping her foot against the floor of the kitchen. "Franny sweetie, why don’t you just wait till after we have supper, its going to be in another couple hours anyway." Ellen turned to see Cassidy standing behind her. Franny didn’t know what to say at first, and then resided herself to give up on the idea of getting another Popsicle at the moment. Franny turned and left the kitchen and went into the bedroom closing the door behind her.
"I could have handled that," Ellen said unsure of what to say to Cassidy. She hadn’t felt this way since… Well since lake Wamatta, when Trish uttered the phrase, "You’d better keep an eye on her Ellen there’s a few of us who’d like to snatch her up and take her home for ourselves." Cassidy smiled and went over to the sink. "I think what goes on between Franny and I is our concern ok?" Ellen said she knew she sounded like a bitch but it was feeling damn good at the moment. Cassidy turned around and shot a look back. "OK Ellen sorry," was all she said. Her body’s posture and the look on her face said something totally different, "watch it old hag, my claws are sharp!" is the message she gave off. Ellen backed down for the moment; she knew the time wasn’t right. She might have been old but this kitty had experience under her belt. "I guess I should start something for supper," Ellen sighed and went over to the cupboard. "Why don’t you let me do it." Cassidy said, "You go talk things out with Franny and I’ll handle supper." "Thanks that’s so nice of you to help." Ellen said and gave her the look right back. She saw Cassidy recoil from it. Ellen knew she had struck home. She left Cassidy to lick her wound in the kitchen as she went to see Franny.
Franny was sitting on the bed with her coloring book open and Puffy sitting on her lap. She looked up as Ellen came in. She was clutching a yellow crayon in one hand and the other was curled into a fist as she sucked her thumb. Ellen leaned against the bedroom door as she closed it and smiled. "Hey miss cranky pants." She grinned. Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth and looked down at her coloring book. "Just needed some little Franny time didn’t you?" Ellen asked as she sat down on the bed. "I know it’s been hard on you sweetie having Cassidy around and all." Franny didn’t say anything she just kept coloring the sun poking through the window of a gingerbread man’s living room. "That’s a pretty picture," Ellen said walking over to Franny on the mattress of the bed on her knees and sitting down behind her. Ellen wrapped her legs around Franny and enfolded her arms around Franny’s shoulders pulling her in tightly. Franny was sitting nestled in the fork of Ellen’s crotch. Ellen nibbled a bit on the back of Franny’s ear, and snuggled the side of her face against Franny’s. She could feel Franny beginning to loosen up. Franny continued to color pretending not to notice Ellen at all. "Ellen," she finally said as she put her yellow crayon back in the box and took out a brown one to begin the Gingerbread man himself. "Yes honey?" "Am I ever going to get to wear one again?" Franny turned her head to look back her. Ellen smiled a little, "yes of course sweetie!" Franny looked like she didn’t believe her. She gave her a big kiss on the side of the face and nibbled at her ear until Franny giggled.
Dan had built her the rocking horse about three months ago, and Virginia loved it. It was big enough for her to ride comfortably and they had put it in her playroom. Dan and Virginia had a spare room they used just for her playtime and it was littered with all kinds of toys. The crowning glory of the room was the rocking horse in the corner. Virginia would sit on it all the time just rocking back and forth as she talked to her daddy. "There’s going to be all kinds of toys I bet!!" Virginia said lifting her body off the seat of her horse with the foot pegs and scrunching up her face for a moment and then sitting back down to rock some more. Dan had set up a comfortable reclining chair in the room so he could read while she played or he could read to her while she played. "Uh huh," Dan nodded flipping over the page of his book. Virginia was talking about the party again, which was going to take place in about 5 weeks from now. He had tired of discussing it with her a long time ago and now was just going through the motions of discussing it. He knew she was only doing it to seek attention now, and to pester him which seemed to be a favourite pass time of hers. "And everybody’s going to be eating all kinds of yummy things, like brownies, and cookies, and cake. I’m going to eat lots of cake did you know?" She asked standing up on the foot pegs again and giving a push, before sitting back down. "Yes I know Virginia you told me before." Virginia was silent for a moment and then started back up again. "I’m going to have three balloons at the party, a red one, a green one and a yellow one." She said quickly. Virginia was quiet for a long time and Dan began to get into his novel when he felt someone watching him. He sighed and put the book down and looked up at Virginia was standing directly in front of him. "What is it Ginia?" he asked. He had no sooner got the words out when Virginia hopped up on his lap and snuggled against him. Dan was happy for the affection she was showing him at first but then he soon became aware of the fact that Virginia smelled really bad. "Virginia you smell honey, did you poop?" Dan was surprised she had, Virginia rarely messed herself, but this time she obviously had. "Nah uh," she shook her head and leaned it against his chest in a snugly manner. Dan lifted the back of her dress and hooked a finger inside the wait band of her Pull-ups. There was no need to look to closely she had obviously sat init to because it was mashed all the way up the crack of her bottom almost to the waist band of her Pull-ups. "Virginia your so messy!" he said, in a scolding voice as he felt her huddle even closer to him. Dan pushed her off him and got up, "You need a bath missy!" he said taking her by the hand. Virginia protested a little but finally followed him off down the hall to the washroom.
"This is one hell of a night!" Anna shuddered at the cold wet drizzle that was settling around her. She pulled her coat closed and kept walking to the bright neon light up ahead. ‘Slumber Queen’ The sign beckoned in the night. Anna had a bottle of Wild Turkey bourbon tucked under her arm as she pushed open the door and stepped into the small lobby of the motel. "I need a room for the night!" she said with a snarl as she took out a clump of money from her pocket. The old man behind the counter got up slowly and fished around on the board behind him for a key. He turned and placed it gingerly in front of the girl. Had his sight been better, and had he not been 74 years old he might have been able to place her face to the one he had seen just 40 minutes ago on TV. But he was 74, and his sight was bad. Anna paid him and took the key to her room.

And he likes to shoot his gun but he knows not what it means and I say "yeah,"
We can have some more; nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit; tender age in bloom.

WARNING THIS CAHPTER IS NOT FOR THOSE WITH A WEAK STOMACH
"…And his loving arms enfold me, he will leave not alone." The preacher recited the poem ‘God’s Presence’ in the background. "Franny sweetie can you turn that off?" Cassidy asked from the kitchen. Franny flipped off the TV and got off the couch. Cassidy had decided to have a BBQ. It was the early October but winter hadn’t made any appearance yet aside from the light coating of frost on the grass in the mornings. Franny tossed the remote for the TV on the couch and went to help carry the food out to the propane BBQ on the small back porch. "This is going to be one big old feast!" Cassidy smiled warmly at Franny as she picked up the tray of steaks and followed Cassidy outside. "You sure Ellen won’t mind us cooking all this up?" She asked as Franny set the tray down on the small shelf of wooden slats beside the BBQ. Franny shrugged, "No she’ll probably be happy."
Ellen was attending a Chamber of Commerce meeting where they were discussing future plans to revitalize the downtown core. Because Ellen’s business was there she was invited to hear their plans for the new downtown. Cassidy picked up a steak with a fork and tossed it on to the grill. It made a sizzling sound as she put it down. Cassidy put the rest of the meat down on the grill and turned to Franny. "So how are things at school?" She asked. Franny shrugged, "They’re ok, I have to start studying for my mid-terms at the end of this month." Cassidy nodded and folded her arms across her chest. She looked silent for a moment like she was thinking about something. "I have some news," She said and looked at Franny. Franny’s eyes got wide for a moment and as she wondered what Cassidy was talking about. Franny had gotten the notion a while ago that Cassidy had a thing for her, and it made her feel sick with worry inside. Not because she didn’t want Cassidy to like her but because she wasn’t sure how she felt about it at all. Cassidy licked her lips a bit and tilted her head to the side. Franny looked into her hazel eyes and felt her body tense up; she could see Cassidy was looking at her, not just at her, looking into her. It made her feel a little weak and her tummy flipped around a bit. "I found an apartment." Cassidy said flatly. Franny stood lifeless for a moment unsure of what Cassidy had just said, but then a smile broke out on her face and the happiness spread to the rest of her body like a disease. Franny screeched and grabbed Cassidy around the shoulders and hugged her tightly. She felt swept away all of a sudden when she felt Cassidy hug her back. "I’m so happy for you!!" Franny squeezed. "I’m happy too honey!!" Cassidy said in a whisper that tickled Franny’s ear with her breath. The sensation almost made Franny’s knees buckle and she held on to Cassidy to keep herself up. Franny pulled away a bit, trying to disengage the situation but Cassidy stopped her holding her in place. Their eyes locked for a moment and time seemed to stand still. Franny watched as Cassidy’s eyes slowly began to close, somewhere in the back her mind Franny realized her eyes were closing too. She felt Cassidy’s moist warm lips against hers a moment later, and felt her firm breasts press against her own as the stood kissing on the back porch. A bird in the yard began to chirp lightly as Cassidy’s hand found its way into Franny’s hair and stroked the side of her head. "Mmmmm, no!" Franny said shaking her head a little trying to pull her lips off Cassidy’s. She stepped back a little and shook her head again. "Oh my God what have I done?" She gasped as if she was just realizing what had happened. "Franny no, don’t!" Cassidy said extending her hand to try and stop Franny from leaving. She turned and went back inside and ran to the bedroom slamming the door shut behind her.
"Franny?" Cassidy knocked on the bedroom door. "Franny please talk to me." Cassidy begged. "No one has to know Franny, we can just forget it ever happened. I’m sorry I thought you liked me." Franny was sitting on the bed and she could hear Cassidy beginning to cry. It pained her to hear it; after all it was just a kiss. She had kissed Wendle at lake Wamatta and never told Ellen about it. Franny slowly got off the bed and opened the bedroom door. Cassidy was sitting on the floor in the hallway with red teary eyes. Franny squatted down beside her and placed a hand on Cassidy’s leg. She rubbed it a bit. "Its ok, I love Ellen though ok? I am with Ellen and I have never thought any different." Franny said as she looked at Cassidy. Cassidy sniffled a bit, "Then… how come you kissed me back?" Franny pulled her arm away slowly and let it drop to her side. Suddenly she felt very sick inside. "I didn’t," she said quietly and shook her head standing up. She left Cassidy sitting on the floor in the hallway and went back out to check on the BBQ.
By the time Ellen got home that evening Franny and Cassidy had made a silent understanding. They would never speak of what happened again, but they would not deny that it did. Everyone sat down at the table to eat as Ellen explained about the meeting. "Well," She smiled sticking a fork into the steak, "We’re dead." She said shortly. Everyone got silent and stared at Ellen. "The new downtown is apparently going to include night clubs, bowling alleys, and even a new movie theatre. My store is going to look about appropriate as a fish in the dessert." Ellen quietly cut into her meat and looked at Cassidy and Franny who were sitting quietly. "That’s the bad news, the good news is that it probably won’t be happening for about a year, it gives me time to explore my options." Franny scratched her arm a little, "what do you think those options are Ellen?" She said casting a small glance at Cassidy. Ellen noticed it but made no mention of it. "Moving locations for one, or even moving out of the city all together." Ellen shrugged and chewed on her food. "Well, Franny said quietly what about my school? If you move to a different city how can I go to school?" Ellen grimaced and shook her head, "Did I say we were moving today? Do you see any boxes sitting around?" Ellen stopped herself before she blew up. "I’m sorry honey, I’ve just had a bad day." Franny nodded and looked down at her plate.
Cassidy cleared her throat and Ellen stared at her coldly. She disliked Cassidy now that was pretty clear to everyone. "I have some news." Cassidy said quietly as Ellen drilled a hole in her forehead with her eyes. Cassidy explained about finding an apartment. The apartment was a one room flat that was with in the limits of what she could afford. It was a little far from the store but she said she wouldn’t mind the 30 minute drive to and from work everyday. It was the only time that evening that Ellen smiled. "So I can move in on the 15th, and they are only charging me half a months rent for October cause It’s already past the first of the month. Ellen nodded, "That is great news Cassidy, I’m happy for you!" She looked over at Franny, "Aren’t you happy for Cassidy?" She stared at Franny until she felt uncomfortable. "Uh huh!" Franny nodded and then started cutting her meat very slowly.
In the days that followed a black cloud seemed to hang over the house and everyone inside. Ellen rarely spoke and when she did it was to complain about something. Cassidy tried her hardest to present a normal living environment with Franny but it was impossible because Franny would barely even look at her. Everyone seemed to be walking on eggshells around someone and it made things very tense.
Around about that time that Franny had her dream. A dream that would trouble her and follow her around, and chew away at the back of her mind for the weeks to follow. It was the first time since she was 14 that she questioned herself. Perhaps it didn’t help that her and Ellen hadn’t been intimate for almost two and a half weeks, perhaps the strain of uncertainty brought it on, she wasn’t sure, and she wasn’t sure she even wanted to know.
‘London was dark and the streets had a constant layer of dewy wetness clinging to them like oil. The huge flat uneven slabs of stone that made up the sidewalks made Franny step cautiously over them. In the back of her mind she feared slipping and it slowed her down. She had to get back to her flat before the fog settled. It was getting chilly she could feel it settling on her and around her like a blanket of evil. The street lamps had been lit for sometime now and they flickered dimly and left an eerie yellow light against the wet stones. Up ahead a draft wagon pulled its freight over the bumpy cobble stone streets. Franny wrapped her cloak around her more tightly against the chill. From the alley just of the hotel ahead he stepped out into her path. She stopped suddenly fearing who he might be. He was a big man, but he didn’t show it in his stride. He was on her in an instant grabbing her by her tiny shoulders and pulling her into the alley with him. Franny wanted to scream, but instead she laughed. She laughed as if she had been squashed into a tiny box for a long, long time and suddenly someone had lifted the lid and set her free. She felt his gritty greasy hair against her face and the rough stubble against her lips as he forced him self on her. Franny threw her head back exposing her delicate neck. She felt his lips on her, they were moist but not warm and giving. They were hard and cool. His hands were dirty and she could feel him tearing away her petticoat. She wanted to scream but when she opened her mouth, she spoke in a lustful voice that said, "Call me a cow! Make me your filthy cow," Franny felt herself sinking to her knees on the damp street. She slowly pushed her tongue out between her lips and looked up at him as he waited for him to undo his trousers. She closed her eyes slowly and when she reopened them she saw it. Hovering there in front of her. It looked swollen and pulsed with his heartbeat. Franny was disgusted when she saw herself bite down on her bottom lip and look up at him, this faceless monster, and grin and evil piggish grin as she opened her mouth and closed it around his member. The fist thing she noticed was that it wasn’t as smooth as it looked it felt kind of bumpy on her lips. It was kind of salty and hot in there and she pushed her tongue against the bottom and sucked on it pulling her head back slowly. She could hear him gasping and his knees seemed to come unhinged a little. She moved her tongue slowly over the wrinkled fold of skin around the head of his member, and felt its springy soft texture against the porous surface of her tongue. Without warning she felt his huge hand on the back of her head. He held her there, and wouldn’t let her move freely. Slowly he began to push her head forward moving his penis closer and closer to the back of her throat. Franny opened her mouth to breath but when she did his hand clutched the back of her hair tightly and pulled until it hurt. "You suck my little piggy." His voice was harsh and mean. Franny closed her lips around it again and slowly began to bob her head up down. "Here comes some milk for my cow, just for my little cow." His voice trailed off through the alley and Franny felt a rising tide of excitement in her belly as continued to do her duty for him. The member in her mouth seemed to swell even bigger and a tide of copper tasting fluid filled her mouth. It felt sticky as it collected on her teeth and the inside of her cheeks. There was an awful mineral taste that almost made her gag. He let her hair go and stepped back. Franny fell forward onto her hand and knees and gasped for air. Slowly she looked up at him, as he was about to leave. A trail of semen ran from the corner of her mouth. "Thank you Sir." She whispered as she saw him disappearing into the shadows.’
"Franny! For Christ sakes wake up!!" She knew it was Ellen shaking her but she couldn’t stop screaming. Franny flailed her body about on the bed and as writhed as if she were in pain. Ellen grabbed her tightly and tried to hug her but when she did Franny dug her nails into Ellen’s face and raked them down her cheek. "Oh fuck," Was all Ellen said letting go of Franny and putting her hand to her own face, she was sure her eye was gone. She heard a thump a moment later as Franny fell out of bed. The world swam and it was silent and dark for a moment. Franny realized she was sitting on the floor at the foot of the bed but she didn’t realize how she got there. There was someone kneeling on the bed hunched over in silhouette. "Ell… Ellen?" Franny asked in a confused frightened voice. Ellen didn’t say anything she just sniffled quietly. It was enough for Franny to recognize Ellen’s voice. "Ellen, what’s wrong? What’s happened?" Franny asked. "My face Franny, you cut me." Was all Ellen said. Franny could tell she was crying and it scared her. She jumped up and ran for the light switch. When the light came on it didn’t help the situation. Both of them were blinded, but not before Franny caught sight of Ellen’s heavy dark winter coat hanging on the hook in the corner of the room. She screamed and jumped as she saw it. For a moment it looked like ‘Him’. Ellen jumped when Franny screamed. "Fuck sakes!!! It’s a coat!!!!" she yelled holding her face. Franny got a hold of herself and made her way to the bed and sat down in front of Ellen. She slowly pulled Ellen’s hand away from her face. Franny was both happy and unhappy at the same time. There were three red swollen trails that started just underneath Ellen’s eye and led down her cheek. They were not bleeding or deep. "I think it’s ok," Franny said quietly not wanting to touch them cause they did look sore. "I’m sorry," Franny looked at her with a quivering lip. "I’m so sorry." Ellen stared at her for a moment still holding the side of her face. "What the hell were you dreaming about?" She asked. Franny got up and went into the washroom and grabbed a cool cloth for Ellen’s face. When she returned Ellen was stripping the sheets off the bed. Franny stood wondering for a moment, and then she realized that she was soaking wet. "I peed the bed?" She asked sounding the surprised. Ellen didn’t say anything she just turned her head and looked at her for a moment. "Let me do it." Franny said taking the rag over to Ellen. Ellen stopped and took the rag from her and stood motionless as she waited for Franny to tell her about her dream.
Several times Franny had to stop and fight back emotion as she explained to Ellen. Some where along the way Ellen’s anger had melted away when she heard the horrible circumstances of Franny’s nightmare. By the time Franny had flipped over the mattress and remade the bed with fresh sheets Ellen had forgiven her and she came over and wrapped her arms around Franny pulling her close. Franny sighed deeply and felt a huge strain lift off her body as she felt Ellen’s warm embrace. "Alright sweetie. It’s ok now." Ellen hugged her as Franny sobbed on her shoulder. She rubbed Franny’s back lightly and rocked her back and forth as they stood together. After a time when Franny had calmed down a bit, Ellen whispered, "Lets get some dry things on you ok?" Ellen could smell the tangy smell of urine lingering in the air around Franny and it brought out a memory of happier times, it hurt her cause she would give anything to have those time back now. A salty tear rolled down her cheek and made the scratches on her face sting.
Franny stripped off her wet pajamas and turned around to see Ellen digging in the closet. My pajamas are in the dresser she pointed. "I’m not getting you pajamas sweetie." Ellen said as she turned around holding a diaper. Franny’s mouth dropped open, as she stood naked from the waist down in the bedroom. Ellen smiled and approached her lovingly, "Lets see if we can fix things." Was all she said as she gave Franny a warm smile. Franny felt a tide of emotion choke off her throat as her eyes watered over for the third time that evening. Franny wanted to fix things too; she certainly hoped that they could.
I said your all a painted doll and it caused the walls to fall.
How far is he? Impatiently; that’s as far as far could be
My kind has all run out as if kinds could blend
Some time and time allows; everything worn in like it’s a friend
I’m called a cow; I’m not about to blow it now for all the cows.
-For all the cows-
-Foo Fighters-
The pink bottle of baby lotion stood in contrast to the crinkly plastic of the disposable diaper underneath Franny’s bottom. Ellen stood over the bed looking down on her as she pulled out a moist baby wipe from the container. Franny closed her eyes feeling the situation overcome her; it comforted her and made her feel whole again. Her thumb came slowly to her lips and slid inside her mouth. Ellen bent down and wiped her gently. The fresh scent of the damp wipe seemed to heal her as she lay silent looking up and Ellen’s gentle face. The house seemed quiet now, at rest as if it had been suffering from a terrible case of insomnia and finally it turned over and slipped into a deep slumber. Ellen delicately wiped the fleshy firm orbs of her bottom taking time to give a smooth quick swipe in between her cheeks and then moved on to her soft pink labia. "Oh god," Franny sighed feeling the wipe caress her. Its clean moistness seemed to tease her clit and make her feel as if the wilted flower of her sexual will had bloomed again. "Shhhh, muffin" Ellen soothed, "my baby, my sweet love." Ellen picked up the lotion and squeezed some into her hands. She brought the palms of her hands down slowly upon the smooth mound of Franny’s vagina, Franny gasped and lifted her hips off the bed just slightly. Ellen smiled, "just relax, I’m going to fix everything" she whispered. Franny felt a tear come to her eyes again as she saw the long scratches down Ellen’s left cheek. Ellen noticed her looking, "they’ll heal honey, it was an accident." She said calmly. Franny nodded and pulled Puffy over to her and hugged him. Ellen kneaded the lotion gently into her labia and bottom. Franny gasped, and arched her back. "Yes, that’s my girl." Ellen smiled. She was becoming aroused herself if her face didn’t hurt and if she wasn’t extremely exhausted she might have wanted to take the diaper off instead of put it on. Ellen reached down slowly between Franny milky soft thighs. She could feel warmth emanating from them. Taking hold of the stretchy elastic of the waistband she pulled it up slowly between Franny’s thighs and watched as her vagina disappeared beneath the soft padding and plastic of the diaper. Ellen fastened the first tape when it happened.
"Ellen?" Cassidy said from behind them. Ellen froze, and then slowly stood up straight and turned around to see Cassidy standing at the bedroom door. "Ellen I heard…" Cassidy paused and looked at Ellen’s face for a moment. "Fuck what happened to your face?" She asked. It was one of those weird situations that you try and prepare yourself for sometimes. Like when your sitting around bored and you think, "What would I do if this happened? Or that?" Ellen tried to remember what she had decided she would do in this situation. When nothing came it occurred to her they had stumbled so far off the path of what she comprehended as normal that she hadn’t even made a contingency plan for this situation. It made it twice as weird that Cassidy didn’t even look at Franny, not even glance. Ellen figured she must have been standing there for a couple seconds before they were aware of her she must have seen what was happening. Ellen glanced over at Franny who was frozen with fear. She had a pretty good idea Franny’s diaper was probably being used as they stood there. "I’m sorry I heard yelling, and noises and then silence, I just wanted…" Ellen cut Cassidy off by walking forward and putting her hand on her chest and directing her out of the bedroom. Ellen closed the bedroom door behind them as they stood in the hall. "Franny had a nightmare, and when I tried to wake her up she was frightened and scratched me. She wet the bed also as she does sometimes so she has to wear protection occasionally." Ellen had explained everything in one long sentence and was quiet proud of herself for not even having to lie all that much. Cassidy didn’t say anything for a moment. Ellen watched as her eyes shifted about as if she were taking the information in. "Well, I was concerned. I didn’t mean to barge in but I think you’d do the same if you heard the yelling and all." Ellen didn’t want to do it but she did agree, she probably would have herself. She nodded, "I understand," she said, "Everything is fine now. I’m just going to finish up with Franny and go back to bed." Cassidy nodded and looked at the bedroom door. "If Franny wets the bed sometimes how come she doesn’t wear them to bed all the time?" She asked. "Like how does she know when she’s going to pee the bed wouldn’t she have to wear them all the time?" Ellen’s mouth opened and closed a couple times as she tried to figure that out herself. Cassidy gave her a smile that Ellen felt like wiping off her face permanently. She sighed and leaned against the wall, she was past the point of caring now. "Franny likes them ok?" Ellen said firmly and dared her to cross the line. Cassidy smiled for a moment and then shrugged, "Cute," was all she said and turned to go back down stairs. Ellen not only disliked her now, she hated her.
When Ellen returned to the bedroom Franny was sitting up in bed. Ellen figured she must have finished doing up her own diaper and climbed under the blankets. "Hey," she smiled. "What did she say?" Franny asked with wide fearful eyes. Ellen chuckled, "Its ok, I told her you wet the bed sometimes." Ellen threw off the covers and climbed inside. Franny sat still staring off into space. "Oh my God Ellen, she knows my biggest secret." Franny shook her head. "Shhh, it’s ok don’t worry about it." Ellen threw an arm over Franny’s shoulder and held her tightly. "She’s never going to believe I need them for medical reasons." Franny shook her head. "Why not?" Ellen asked. "Well I’ve never worn them to bed before, why would I need them some nights and not others?" Ellen couldn’t help but chuckle a little, it seemed like such a good lie when she thought of it, and it was funny that everyone could see through it except herself. "Honey, I just told her you liked them." Ellen admitted. Franny pulled her body away from Ellen with a quick jerk. "YOU WHAT?" she asked with her eyes wide with panic. Ellen stared at her for a moment, "Well you’re right she did see through the lie, so I told the truth." Franny put a hand over her heart and patted her chest quickly. "Oh my God Ellen….. Oh my God!" she said. "Franny its ok don’t worry about it, it doesn’t matter." Franny looked at Ellen as if she had gone crazy. "What do you mean? And what did she say?" "She said it was cute." Ellen said, and got silent for a moment. She wondered if she should tell Franny now. "Why doesn’t it matter?" Franny asked. Ellen didn’t look at her for a while. Franny could see that she was thinking. Finally after a period, she turned to Franny. "I’m closing the store Franny." She said in a flat serious tone. Franny’s jaw dropped and she sat looking at Ellen for a moment. "What?" she asked. Ellen nodded, "I’m closing it, I called the real-estate agent today he looking for a new location around Lake Wamatta." Franny shook her head, "there’s nothing in lake Wamatta it’s a lake that’s it." Ellen laughed, "not the lake it’s self, the town." Franny scowled and shook her head, "Why didn’t you tell me?" She asked. "Because nothing is definite, I hadn’t even decided to close the store until tonight, I just wanted him to look." Franny thought for a moment, "What about my school Ellen?" Ellen sighed, "Franny I want you to come with me, I need my store its all I have, and its all I know. I understand you degree is important to you, but if you come with me, I promise I’ll see to it that you get it somehow." Franny shook her head, "There’s no school there Ellen how am I supposed to go to school when there’s no school." Ellen was quiet and nodded, "Well there’s lots of time yet, we’ll talk about it some more." Franny seemed satisfied at the moment with that because she had already decided there was time enough to talk Ellen out of it. Ellen on the other hand, had decided there was plenty of time to talk Franny into it.
Ellen got up and shut the light off and climbed back into bed. Franny snuggled against her in her diapers. She pushed her head lightly against Ellen’s breasts and tried to settle in for the night. "Shhhh," Ellen soothed rubbing her back lightly. "I can’t get comfy." Franny said in a little girl’s voice. Ellen smiled in the darkness as the thought came to her, she had never done this for Franny before but she thought it seemed a nice gesture of how far she would go to sooth her and make her feel comfortable. Ellen slowly undid her pajama shirt and removed one of her breasts. She pushed it gently against Franny’s lips. Ellen felt Franny’s moist warm mouth enclose around the nipple as she began to suck gently on it sending light quick bolts of pleasure through Ellen’s chest. Franny fell asleep like that. Ellen lay awake for some time before finally drifting off to a sleep.
I take a walk outside; I’m surrounded by kids at play
I can feel their laughter so why do I sear
Oh and twisted thoughts that spin round my head, I’m spinning oh I’m spinning
How quick the sun can drop away
And now my bitter hand cradle broken glass of what was everything.
-Black-
-Pearl Jam-
The kiss of morning awoke Franny from her slumber. She could tell the in the dim light of the bedroom that it was still early. She still lay cradled in Ellen’s arm, her naked breast protruding from her nightshirt. The warmth and softness of her body next to Franny made her feel relaxed and comforted. She inhaled deeply locking away the scent of Ellen’s body and closed her eyes. Franny nuzzled her nose against Ellen’s soft breast and brought both of her knees up to her chest under the blankets. A soft whine escaped her lips as she released the strained hold on her bladder and let forth with a satisfying morning pee. It bubbled out from between her labia in a warm yellow current and ran down between the crack of her bottom in a gentle quiet flow and pooled around the bum. She could feel it collecting there for a moment and then continued on to soaked in almost all the way to the top of the diapers waistband. As her flow slowed to a trickle Franny opened her eyes to see Ellen looking down on her warmly. She smiled a loving smile and kissed the top of her forehead. “Good morning muffin, feel better after your pee?” She asked. Franny blushed a little and stared at her with a smile. “Yes, much better.” She whispered. “That’s good honey,” Ellen brushed some hair out of her eyes and gave her a hug. “It’s still early go back to sleep,” Ellen whispered in Franny’s ear. Franny nodded and snuggled close to Ellen again. They both drifted off again for another couple hours.
When Ellen awoke it was completely light in the room, she guessed it was around 7:30 because the sun wasn’t fully up till almost 6:00 this late in the year. Franny was sleeping soundly with her thumb tucked neatly in her mouth. Puffy was snuggled in against her tummy with Franny’s arm wrapped around him. Ellen smiled down at her for a moment. Then she threw off the covers and headed over to the washroom. She didn’t want to look in the mirror this morning. She knew the scratches on her face would be very visible. Ellen stripped down her panties and sat on the toilet to release her morning pee. She knew Franny would be in baby mode when she woke up and she would be upset if she had to grow up quickly for Cassidy’s sake. Ellen worried as she let the last of her pee come in the toilet with a trickling splash. “Well, Cassidy will have to suck it up and deal with it.” Ellen said to herself as she pulled some toilet paper off the roll by wrapping it around her hand. Ellen wiped herself and stood up as she flushed the toilet. “Franny’s put herself out enough over the past few weeks, Cassidy can take some of the burden too for the last few days she’s here.” Ellen thought as she headed down the hall to kitchen.
As she got into the kitchen she noticed the coffee pot was already brewed and she stopped dead in her tracks. “Morning.” Cassidy said from the kitchen table. Ellen jumped and put her hand to her chest. “Oh Shit,” she gasped and then tried to calm herself. “How’s the face?” Cassidy asked with a smile as she sat in her nightgown with a cup of coffee. “Ok, it’s not too bad.” Ellen said making her way to the coffee pot. When she poured herself a cup she sat down at the table and looked at Cassidy for a moment. “I have to explain something to you.” Ellen said, she hated Cassidy but she was trying to be warm with her for Franny’s sake. “Franny’s going to get up soon, and she’ll be well still protected from the night before. Now, you may have noticed that she’s like a little girl sometimes, well mostly likely that’s what she’ll be like when she wakes up.” Cassidy nodded and shook her head, “Yes Ellen look she’s an adult baby alright God would you just spit it out. I don’t live under a rock.” Ellen was taken back a little, and just stared at her. “I’ve been on the Internet, and watched a few talk shows in my life Ellen it isn’t a total surprise.” Ellen thought for a moment, “And this is alright with you?” She asked. Cassidy grimaced, “Is it supposed to be? I’m not romantically involved with her you are, what’s it got to do with me? I’ll put up with it cause I’m living here and I owe it to you guys but aside from that its none of my business. In fact I wish you guys had just come clean with it from the beginning, maybe it wouldn’t have been so tense around here.” Ellen looked at her calmly for a moment and tried to decide if she was serious or just playing one of her stupid little mind games. When she decided she couldn’t tell she got up from the table. “Alright, I’m going to get Franny up so just go along with it ok?” She said over her shoulder as she walked away. Cassidy shrugged and went back to her coffee.
Franny was already sitting up in bed when Ellen came in. “Morning muffin!” Ellen smiled at her as she sat in bed rubbing her eyes. “Is it time to get up?” she asked Ellen was glad to hear little Franny ask. “Yes pumpkin it’s time to get up.” She said sitting on the end of the bed and holding her arms out for Franny to give her a hug. Franny smiled and threw off the covers and crawled across the bed on her hands and knees. Her diaper crinkled noisily as she made her way over to Ellen. The seat of the diaper was heavily saturated from her pee earlier. Franny sat down heavily in the fork of Ellen’s legs and felt the warmth of Ellen’s arms enfold around her. Ellen hugged her tight and kissed her ear, “Morning pee bum.” Ellen whispered. Franny giggled and wiped her eyes again. She looked suspiciously at the bedroom door for a moment. “Is she up?” Big Franny asked. Ellen smiled, and nodded yeah she’s having coffee already. Franny looked scared for a moment, “I’d better get this off of me,” she said jamming a hand into the crotch of her diaper and kissing Ellen just under her jawbone. Ellen brushed a hand through Franny’s hair. “You don’t have to sweetie if you don’t want to. Cassidy’s AB aware.” Franny jerked away from her for a moment. “What? What do you mean she’s AB aware?” “She knows about AB’s and she knows your one.” Ellen said calmly. “What!? When did this happen?” Franny was confused. “She told me this morning,” Ellen said. Franny was silent for a moment and then asked, “Is she?…” and stopped. Ellen shook her head, “No, well at least not that I know of. She said she doesn’t care about it though and you can be that way if you want.” Franny was quiet again. “No,” she said finally, “I wouldn’t feel right about it.” “Why?” Ellen asked. “Well just cause she knows about it doesn’t make it ok to walk around in a diaper.” Franny said. Ellen chuckled a bit, “Remember lake Wamatta?” Franny scowled and looked at her, “Yeah, what’s that got to do with it?” Ellen hugged her a little tighter and said, “Well remember Laurie and Trish? They aren’t AB’s, but they are AB aware. They’ve accepted it for one reason or another so what’s the difference between them and Cassidy, just because she’s not married to an AB doesn’t mean she accepts it less.” Franny couldn’t argue with that fact, and she really didn’t want it to end so soon she was having fun. She was still a little nervous though. “Well, ok but if she makes one mean comment I’m not going to do this ever again.” Ellen laughed, Franny saying she was never going to go into baby mode again was a like sea turtle saying it was never going to return to the ocean. “Ok honey, It’s a deal.” Ellen kissed her again and held her tight. “Just between you and me? If she makes one mean comment, she’ll have a face to match mine.” Ellen pointed to the scratches on her face and they both giggled.
Franny got off the bed and went over to the dresser. “I should at least cover my diaper a bit. She slipped on her pajama bottoms and pulled them up. The bum of her diaper felt pretty saggy as she hiked up the pajama bottoms against the seat of her squishy wet bottom. She thought for a moment of asking Ellen to change her before they went out there but she figured it could wait till later. “You ready to go?” Ellen asked standing up. Franny stood there looking frightened for a moment. Ellen was swept back to the day at Lake Wamatta when they had first stepped out of the van to meet everyone. “It’s ok muffin, it’ll be alright.” She said taking Franny’s hand. Actually Franny was feeling much the same way as that day as they started off down the hall towards the kitchen. Franny lagged further and further behind. Ellen was almost pulling her by the time they turned the corner for the kitchen. Franny’s bare feet padded a couple times against the linoleum in the kitchen and stopped as Cassidy looked up. Ellen stopped with her and rubbed her hand against Franny’s back a little. Everyone was silent for a moment as they tried to adjust to the situation. “Morning Franny!” Cassidy said Cheerfully. “Would you like a coffee, I’m on my second cup already.” She announced. Franny didn’t know what to say she just stood there looking terrified. She felt Cassidy’s eyes crawl over the crotch of her pajamas and stop for a moment on the bulky diaper underneath. “She’ll have juice this morning Cassidy.” Ellen said placing a hand lightly against the back of Franny’s head to stroke her hair. Franny folded her hands nervously in front of her diaper and stood there looking sheepish. Cassidy smiled at her, “Yummy juice huh?” she asked and took another sip of her coffee. “Go on over to the table sweetie and sit down.” Ellen gave her a small push to get going. Franny took a couple steps and stopped, maybe it was just her but her diaper seemed to be crinkling in stereo this morning. Cassidy smiled at her again. She pulled out a chair for Franny to sit on and slapped it a couple times. “Come on over and sit down, I don’t bite.” Franny started over again. Franny was never so happy in her life as when she reached the chair and was able to sit down at the table. At least her torso would be hidden underneath it, so from the waist up she would look like big Franny. When she was safely seated at the table Ellen brought over her plastic mug. Franny looked at it and blushed. It was a white plastic cup that had baby lambs on it. They had purchased it from a joke shop cause it was cute. One of the baby lambs was speaking to another in a conversation bubble and was saying “How do you like my new Baa Baa?” Usually it made Franny smile, but not this morning. She looked at Cassidy with big sheepish eyes. “Cute mug sweetie.” Cassidy said. Franny leaned over and peered inside at the red juice. She turned her head back to Ellen for a moment and looked at the coffee pot. Ellen just shook her head, and poured a cup for herself. When Ellen had put some cream in her coffee she went to the cupboard and took out Franny’s plastic cereal bowl and spoon. They were white and had Panda bears on them, Franny hadn’t eaten out of them since Cassidy had arrived but she wasn’t happy to see them this morning anyway. “Sailor McCrunch cereal coming right up!” Ellen said as she poured a bowl for Franny and went to the fridge for milk. She set the bowl of cereal in Front of Franny and mussed up her hair a bit, “Eat up pumpkin.” She said as she walked around the table and took a seat herself. Cassidy and Ellen began talking over the bookstore as they normally did in the mornings. Franny thought it was interesting that Ellen didn’t even mention the fact that she had decided to close the store to Cassidy. She took it as a good sign. Franny munched on her cereal and was indifferent to those around her. She was slipping into a comfy zone as she felt the wet soggy diaper under her in her jammies. Her cereal tasted good this morning too, and Franny was beginning to feel a little special as the conversation around her continued on as normal even though she was diapered. Ellen picked up the TV guide that was on the table and leafed through as she finished her coffee. “Mmm!” she said and set her cup down. Ellen swallowed the coffee in her mouth and patted Franny on the arm. When she had Franny’s full attention, she pointed at the TV guide. “Franny! ‘Friendly Bears Here to Heck and Be Gone’!! Is coming on today!!” Ellen proclaimed. Franny was about to shovel a spoonful of cereal in her mouth when she stopped. Cassidy watched as drip of milk fell them the underside of the spoon back into the bowl. ‘Friendly Bears Here To Heck and Be Gone’ was the only full-length animation movie they ever made of the Friendly Bears. Franny had seen it twice but she was excited to see it again. “It’s coming on in…” Ellen paused and looked at the clock, a half an hour.” She said and looked back at Franny with a smile. Franny smiled and finished her cereal quickly she wanted to be on the couch with Puffy when it came on that’s for sure. She guzzled her juice down and pushed the chair back from the table and got up quickly. She had almost completely forgotten about her diapers until Ellen reminded her. “You need a dry bum first Missy.” Ellen said taking a last slurp of her coffee. Franny blushed and looked over at Cassidy who was also blushing at the moment and pretending she hadn’t heard what she just heard. Franny closed her legs tightly together and stood there unsure of what to do. Ellen took her by the hand and led her off to the bedroom, “There’s plenty of time before it comes on.” She said with a gentle voice.
As they left the kitchen, Cassidy smiled a big smile and covered her mouth. She tried not to laugh but it was kind of funny. She felt a twinge of embarrassment for herself as well when she realized she wondered what it would be like to change Franny’s diaper. She tried to brush it off. “Gross,” she thought to herself. A small voice in the back of her head disagreed “Really? Would it?” it nagged at her. Cassidy scowled and got up from the table. “I need a real women, not a baby.” Cassidy told herself and she felt unsettled again as the voice laughed at her.
Speaking of voices; Anna Cobalt was listening to one right at that moment as she stood outside a liquor store. “Fucking Cold!” she shouted. The chilly October nights had caused her to blow almost all the money she had on motel rooms, right about now she needed something to kill the pain. Anna crossed the street from the phone booth and went inside the liquor store. She pulled the hood of her coat over her face as she passed by a security camera. Anna grabbed a bottle of Wild Turkey off the shelf and headed for the door. She walked past the cashiers with out even so much as looking at them. “Excuse me!” a skinny guy with grayish hair and glasses announced. “You have to pay for that!” He rushed around the counter at her to try and stop her from leaving.
It was an old thing, a rusty pipe that had been sitting in the dirt behind the abandoned garage for about six years now. It was about a foot long and was made of heavy lead. Zeke Parsons had tossed it in the grass six years ago after he had used it to smash the headlights out of a car that had been impounded in his garage. The car belonged to his ex-wife’s new lover, who had stopped making payments on about seven months prior. The repo man had brought it by for storage until it could be turned over to the sheriff’s department for auction. Zeke was only happy to store the vehicle there, in fact he grinned a huge grin as he signed the deliver notice. After he smashed out the headlights and all the windows he tossed the pipe aside with out a care. That’s where Anna found it sitting half embedded in the sandy mud behind the garage, which had gone out of business some time ago. She picked it up and put it in her coat pocket.
“Hey!!! YOURE GONNA PAY FOR THAT!!!” Allan Shouted rushing at her. She was a tiny girl and Allan thought he could restrain her easily and get the bottle from her, maybe even hold her till the police got there. It would be a great story to tell Rita, his wife when he got home tonight. The day Allan caught a shoplifter. He’d pick up Sherry Margaret and put her on his knee. Sherry was their 22-month-old baby, and Allan thought she’d be plenty proud of her pop when she was old enough to understand. Sherry never got to see her old pop again. As soon as Allan was in striking distance Anna pulled out the pipe. She was feeling quiet brazen because she knew she had the pistol for back up. She layed the pipe square over old Allan’s noggin. A skull is a pretty solid thing. But if an objects traveling fast enough and is heavy enough, it might as well be an eggshell. Allan’s skull broke, not just cracked but broke from the impact. Shared of bone punctured through the protective lining of his brain and cause mass swelling and bleeding. Allan died in the hospital later that evening. Anna was now wanted for murder.
Franny paused by the bed and waited for Ellen to come over. She was at the closet getting out another diaper. Franny took a quick moment to squat down at the foot of the bed and let go with a hot torrent of pee in to her diaper. She could feel the padding swelling and expanding beyond belief and she was afraid to move or it would leak. She stayed squatting until she was sure she could stand up again with out having rivers of pee running down her legs. “Ready for a dry bum now?” Ellen asked placing the stuff on the bed. Franny stuck her thumb in her mouth and nodded. She did feel ready for a fresh diaper.
If you’ve never stared off into the distance then your life is a shame
Though I’ll never forget your face sometimes I can’t remember my name
Hey Mrs. Potter don’t cry; Hey Mrs. Potter I know why but
Hey Mrs. Potter won’t you talk to me.
There’s a piece of Maria of every song I sing
And the price of a memory is the memory of the sorrow it brings.
-Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby-
-Counting Crows-
Sweetness followed. The freshness of the baby wipes gently cleaning and refreshing Franny’s labia making her feel alive and wanted. Her thumb was cradled in between her lips and her eyes stared brightly up at Ellen. Ellen held the wipe flat and ran it clean up one side of Franny’s bum cheek. She watched it jiggle momentarily as she swiped. It was round and firm and, well really had more of a bounce to it than a jiggle. She wondered for a second if her fanny might be as taught. She did the same to the other cheek and the placed the wipe directly over her fingers and gave a quick swipe inside Franny’s crack. "Mmmm baby’s getting all clean," she soothed. Her voice carried over to Franny like a melody. A small smile creased the corner of her lips around her thumbs. Franny held Puffy tightly by the arm with the other hand and gave him a happy shake as she felt the joy in her heart from Ellen’s nurturing. Ellen smiled down at her warmly and tickled her tummy a bit lightly. The used diaper lay beside her on the bed. It was yellowed and heavy looking as it lay half folded. Franny’s tiny hand reached out to touch its plastic cover. "Nah! That’s dirty." Ellen cautioned. Her warning was more for play than for actual concern. Franny smiled at her. She took the powder and sprinkled it liberally on her hands examining the chalky coating it left behind as she rubbed it in some. The sweetness of the powder’s scent seemed to fill every corner of the room. Ellen leaned over and began to rub it in to Franny in a small circular motion, feeling it turn her flesh smooth and silky. The powder seemed to dull the rosy hue of her labia somewhat but it was still evident. Ellen had the urge to bend over and separate her labia to examine the soft pinkness underneath. She wanted to kiss it, and feel it become moist with excitement. Franny’s show was coming on though it would have to wait. She sprinkled some more powder on to her bottom and then on to the diaper, which she slid underneath her. Ellen pulled up the front of her diaper and taped it up tightly. She watched with amusement as Franny rolled around on the bed for a moment getting the feel of her fresh diaper. She smiled broadly kicking her legs and moving them about against the bed, enjoying the crinkly powder covered softness of her new diaper. "Come on pumpkin, your movie’s starting." Ellen clapped her hands and held out her arms for Franny to take hold of as she lifted her off the bed. Franny took hold of them and got off the bed. She was about to put her pajamas back on when Ellen stopped her. "Don’t you want to look all pretty for your movie?" She asked sliding open the closet door. Franny smiled, she thought it might be fun to get dressed up for the movie; it would make it seem like an experience not just an afternoon of Television. "Well come on over and decide what to wear muffin." Ellen said happily. Franny went over to the closet and stared inside. Franny took hold of her yellow sundress and her pink rhumba panties and pulled them out. She threw her dress on and Ellen buttoned it up in the back. Then she stepped into the pink rhumbas and pulled them up her legs and over her diaper. When that was accomplished she went to the jewellery box on the dresser and pulled out her white barrettes with the pretty blue flowers on them and put them in her hair on either side of her head. Franny grabbed hold of the hem of her dress and tuned around for Ellen to see with a big smile on her face. "So pretty honey!" Ellen smiled, "What a pretty little muffin I have." Franny ran over and wrapped her arms around Ellen and gave her a tight hug. Ellen hugged her back for all she was worth.
Franny noticed Cassidy give her more than a small glance when she came out into the living room. For a moment Cassidy’s eyes looked like they were going to pop out of her head. She got herself under control quite quickly though and turned to the channel that the Friendly Bears movie was going to come on. Franny still had about five minutes to wait and she sat anxiously on the couch with Puffy beside her. Franny hugged Puffy tightly as she sat on the couch. "Are you all comfy and ready for the movie sweetie?" Cassidy asked casting a glance over at Franny. "Uh huh!" Franny nodded and smiled. Ellen grimaced, she hated it when Cassidy called her Franny ‘sweetie.’ It might have been a generic term to describe someone who behaved sweetly but it didn’t sit well with her. The movie came on with all the splendour of the cartoon plus two. And Franny wiggled her bottom back against the couch to prepare for a long spell of sitting. Tup Flop kicked off the movie with an attention grabbing plane crash somewhere in the Andes. "Oh my, oh my, what’s a bear to do!!" he cried as he climbed out of his wrecked plane and headed over to a pile of rocks to have a seat. Franny was spell bound as she sat with her mouth half hanging open enthralled with the show.
"Friendly Bears! Shcmendly Bears!" Virgina was sitting on the floor in front of the couch. She wasn’t facing the TV as she had promised she would. Instead she had two feet planted on Dan’s poor knees and was pushing them about with her legs. Dan sighed and looked down at her. "You said you wanted to see the movie." His eyes pleaded. "Well now I don’t buster!" Virginia said in a cheery tone and gave his legs a push again with her feet. She smiled up at him sweetly. Her breasts pushed tightly against the fabric of the t-shirt she was wearing. Dan shook out his newspaper and tried to ignore her. He knew she was looking for attention again. She gave his legs another push, and asked, "What are you reading about?" Dan rolled his eyes. "Ok look, if you don’t want to watch the movie you go into the bedroom and take off you pull-ups and sit here and behave normally, I’m not up to this today." Virginia smiled at him sweetly; she had just begun.
About a half an hour into the movie, Franny began to feel agitated as she sat on the couch. She looked around slowly at Cassidy who looked completely bored with the movie. Ellen was in the kitchen cleaning up and deciding what to do about supper that night. Franny chewed nervously on her bottom lip as her eyes scanned the room. She wished she had taken the time to go to the washroom before Ellen had diapered her again but she hadn’t and now it was almost inevitable that she was going to mess herself. She felt sweaty and nervous as she stared over at Cassidy. "Whats the matter with you?" Cassidy glanced over at her. Franny shook her head and pushed her face into Puffy’s soft fur. Franny stretched out on the couch on her tummy and propped her head up with Puffy as her pillow. She stuck her thumb in her mouth and sucked on it nervously. She felt a wave of relief pass over her when Cassidy got up, "I’m going down stairs to read for a while." She said and left the living room. Franny heard Ellen pull out a kitchen chair from the table and take a seat. She slowly spread her legs apart a little and buried her face in the back of Puffy’s head. Franny bored down with her stomach muscles in a long straining push as she felt the solid mass begin to exit her bum and make its way into the crevice of her bum cheeks. She stopped pushing for a second and then bore down again with a straining grunt. The poo made a squeaky whine as it squeezed its way out., and she felt its warm bumpy mass begin to tent out the seat of her diaper. It began to fold and ball up against the diaper. Franny strained one more time as she felt it becoming softer towards the end. It filled her pants and covered her ass with a bubbly squishing fart at the end. She relaxed and laid the side of her face against Puffy for a moment to catch her breath. She wiped the cool sweat off her forehead with her hand and went back to watching her show and sucking her thumb. Franny was feeling quiet happy as she lay there, the warm mass against her bottom made her feel especially excited and happy to be watching the movie. She squeezed her bum cheeks together lightly to feel the mess against her skin and she smiled. She could smell herself but it didn’t bother her, it made her feel naughty and excited at the same time. Franny was feeling quiet happy with herself all around until she heard the footsteps of Cassidy coming upstairs again. She hadn’t expected her to come back up until much later. Franny felt panic in her throat and she lay still on the couch with her eyes glued innocently on the TV, hoping against hope that Cassidy wouldn’t know what she had done.
Cassidy came into the living room and stood behind the couch for a moment silently. Franny wanted to turn around and look at her but was too afraid to do so. "How’s the movie?" Cassidy asked in a normal tone. "Good," Franny nodded but didn’t look back at her. Cassidy remained there for a few minutes more before leaving and going into the kitchen. She found Ellen reading over some of her accounting books for the store and decided to approach her tactfully. She was pretty sure it wasn’t the first time this had happened with Franny so she didn’t think it would be a surprise. She just wanted to bring it to Ellen’s attention in case she thought something should be done about it. She wouldn’t let it go by if Franny was with her, so she thought Ellen would want to know. Cassidy approached her and leaned over. She saw Ellen tense up as she became aware of the presence behind her. "Ellen?" Cassidy whispered in her ear gently. "Franny pooped herself and it really smells." she said quietly feeling her face go flush with embarrassment. Ellen didn’t even turn her head to look back. She just nodded and continued reading. Cassidy thought maybe she hadn’t heard her and she leaned forward again, "Like, bad." She added. Ellen turned her head slowly and stared up at her looking very unconcerned with the whole thing. "Ok, thanks" she said. Cassidy stood there for a moment and looked like she was mouthing words that weren’t coming out. Finally she asked, "Well aren’t you going to do anything?" She asked. Ellen nodded, "Yeah in a few minutes, I’ll change her." Cassidy looked at her again and then turned around and went back down stairs. Franny breathed a sigh of relief as she heard Cassidy thumping back down the stairs. She was so happy she had gotten away with it. She smiled and popped a thumb in her mouth.

"It’s prickly and its poison." She laughed as she sat on the muddy bank taking in the scene of brownish murky water flowing past in a swift current. "I’m prickly and I’m poison." Anna mumbled as she slugged back another mouthful of Wild Turkey. The sky had never looked so high even though a blanket of cloud was pulled snugly overtop stretching into the horizon, into infinity. Her frame was ravaged now; she hadn’t eaten in three days. Her pale skin once vibrant was pale and pulled tight against her cheekbones. She looked positively skeletal. Her dark eyes once held the picture perfect vision of feminine beauty, but now were sunken and dull. Anna leaned back and placed both elbows against the cold dirt and let loose with a torrent of urine that bubbled out of seat of her pants and run down the bank in muddy trails into the river. She laughed a deep raspy laugh, "I’m poison." She shouted. Anna collapsed slowly; her body pulled itself in the fetal position. She mumbled in whispery plea as she lost consciousness "I’m a wild turkey sticking it to the man." She smiled as only a defeated waste of a human can. She was beautiful.
Fluorescent lighting has a way of sucking your will. Franny sighed and tapped her pen nervously against her binder. She listened half-heartedly to the lecture, which seemed to drone on and on. Valley Curdsworth was a windbag, and she had a way of imposing her views on her students whether they liked it or not. Franny didn’t like her. "It can be said that the implementation of birth control devices into the culture freed women from the chains of paternal devotion and gave the feminist movement a big push forward." Franny rolled her eyes; there was another example of one-sided opinion. A woman maybe free to choose at which point she decides to start a family, but never can she escape the biological need to reproduce. Biology and Sociology never mixed, it frustrated her at times. She kept her opinion to herself though; Franny didn’t like to rock the boat.
She felt a light prong of happiness sweep her heart when the lecture came to an end. People got up and began to leave, and Franny packed up her books and started for the door. Things had been going great at home recently. Cassidy had moved out, and her and Ellen had begun to repair their relationship. She smiled broadly as she headed down the hall. Next week was the party at Trish and Harry’s and she looked forward to it immensely. As she strolled past the fountain in the centre of the campus she heard a voice call to her. Franny adjusted her packsack on her shoulder and looked around. She didn’t see anyone so she continued walking again. She heard the voice again a moment later. "Franny wait!" It called. Franny stopped she recognized it immediately. She closed her eyes slowly and turned around. She watched as Cassidy came running across the campus from the library building. Cassidy ran up to her and stopped, she was out of breath and breathing heavily. "Hi!" She smiled as she gasped for air. "Hi Cassidy how are you?" Franny asked looking at her. She wondered why Cassidy was even there. "Franny, I’m so glad I found you I had to see you." She smiled and placed a hand on Franny’s shoulder. "What’s up Cassidy?" Franny asked and looked her over suspiciously. "Well,…" Cassidy paused and looked around for a moment. "I really wanted to talk to you Franny." Franny turned and started walking slowly. "I’m going to miss my bus," she almost whined as she looked back at Cassidy over her shoulder. Cassidy started walking with her. "Franny can you catch the next one?" She asked. "It won’t come for another forty-minutes and Ellen will be worried." Franny said picking up her pace as she saw the bus shelter ahead of them. "Fanny wait," Cassidy grabbed her by the arm and held her back. "Please, lets have a coffee and talk." Franny felt a little guilty for blowing Cassidy off but she shook her head, "I can’t,… What do we have to talk about anyway?" She asked and started walking again. "Franny, I’m in love with you." Cassidy said in almost a whisper that began to get choked off by tears. Franny felt the tiny hairs on the back of her neck stand on end, and her stomach seemed to fall to the ground. She turned around slowly. "What?" She asked in a flat tone that was carried off by a gust of wind. Cassidy pulled some hair out of her face and sniffled. "Please can we just talk?" She asked. Franny knew she shouldn’t but she agreed.
They got their coffees in a white Styrofoam cup took a seat in the cafeteria. Franny looked at her carefully, she knew sometimes girls like Cassidy could produce tears at the drop of a hat. It looked good for effect but it meant nothing. She couldn’t tell if Cassidy was faking it or not so she sat back and waited to hear her out. Cassidy tilted her head to the side and patted Franny on the hand a little. "I know, you love Ellen but please just listen to me. I have feelings for you I can’t help that." Cassidy looked around to make sure no one was listening to them and then continued again. "Franny, the way I feel right now is that when I think of you and me, I think we could be a good thing for each other. We’re both young and Ellen is great but she doesn’t understand where you’re coming from a lot of the time. I do." She squeezed Franny’s hand tightly and was silent for a moment. "Please Franny, just consider what I am saying." Franny sat back in her chair and didn’t say anything. "Just consider giving me a chance, that’s all I ask. You don’t have to say anything right now; I know you and Ellen are taking a trip next week. Please think about it, and call me when you get back and tell me yes or no." Cassidy got up and left Franny sitting at the table alone. Franny didn’t move for a long time.
The next week flew by in a blur for Franny, she didn’t eat much and her sleep was punctuated by periods where she would awake suddenly in a panic, feeling the heavy dull thud of her heart in her chest. She wanted to tell Ellen to talk it out with her but she couldn’t. She began to feel lost in her own mind, chased by feelings of guilt and curiosity. Ellen was distracted lately, she was busy consulting real estate agents and banks concerning the closing of her store. Franny was beginning to feel distraught that the sale might go through.
By the time they had packed up the van and set out on the road for the party Franny had never felt so unsettled and distressed about her choice she could barely speak. She stared out the passenger window of the van trying to hold back tears. She had already made her decision this morning, but she wasn’t sure if she should tell Ellen now or after they returned she waited to see if the proper moment would arise to fill her in.
As Franny and Ellen were pulling into Trish’s and Harry drive way Cassidy was in her station wagon heading pulling into the parking lot of Quick Shop. She hopped out of her car and shut the door with her hip. She was feeling good tonight, she was sure Franny was going to get a hold of her when she got back. She smiled a big Cassidy smile and threw open the door and stepped inside the store. The cashier looked up at her with a scared look on his face, he looked pale and she thought for a moment he might be sick. Cassidy thought it might have something to do with the sickly looking girl at the counter. She was obviously homeless and was probably pestering him. Cassidy waved hi and smiled to the big burly looking cashier. She noticed the homeless girl jump and swing around quickly. It was the last thing Cassidy ever noticed for a long time.
The pistol went off with a loud pop! The cashier had hit the panic button the moment he saw her turn. If there is enough energy involved; things have a way of occurring on a molecular level beyond the range of human ability. The speeding bullet was actually making a high pitched ‘whizzing’ sound as it cut through the air, but no one could hear it. Cassidy certainly didn’t it punctured a hole through her right sinus cavity and bounced around inside her head a little before coming to rest underneath her right frontal lobe. Cassidy’s body hit the floor with a thud and a slap. Anna looked down on her for a moment, she seemed indifferent to the carnage she had just created, and then she turned back to the cashier. "Give me the fucking money now!" She shouted and pointed at him. There was no way she was spending another night sleeping by the river with no food in her belly. The cashier began to fill the paper bag with the cash.
Paul Mallstead was a constable with the local police force. He was the first to arrive on the scene. As his patrol car pulled up front with the lights blacked out he spied the suspect at the counter of the Quick Shop. He later recorded in his report that Anna had the gun pointing at the cashier, a Mr. Donald Willis. In actuality the gun was hanging limply by her side still in her hand. Paul also noticed a victim on the floor of the store but couldn’t immediately tell if she was injured or not, but she appeared to be lifeless. Paul opened the door to his cruiser and stepped out quietly and took position behind the driver’s side door of the cruiser.
Anna kicked open the door of the store and stepped out onto the sidewalk. Unbeknownst to her a .45 calibre service pistol was already trained squarely on her. "Drop the gun!" Paul shouted. "Police! Drop the gun!" Anna jumped and tried to level her pistol to point it at the dark figure standing behind the cruiser. It was too late; Anna smiled a big broad smile, and whispered "Thank you Sir." A single slug tore away her face in a mist of fleshy pulp and a cloud of spray. She watched the world disappear into the shadows.
Do your time and pay the price
For everything you’ve done wrong baby
Do your time and then come home for good.
-Everything You’ve Done Wrong-
-Sloan-
Anna was home, wrapped up snuggly in oblivion; and it was good. Cassidy awoke three days later in County General’s ICU ward. She had escaped oblivion, and it gave her a new out look on life. It took time as it always did, but through the tears and the pain she rebuilt her life and centred it on good things, real things. She was never again a girl of flight and fancy. She was grounded and determined, she had; as we all do, come out stronger from her tragedy. It is natures way after all.
Back during that dark time... the van pulled up outside the brightly lit house. Ellen turned off the ignition. The two of them sat silently for a moment staring up at the brightly lit house. There was music playing inside and jack-o'lanterns on the porch. Ellen turned to her slowly in the dark interior of the van. "So, is this it?" She asked. She’d been around long enough to know when something was seriously wrong with a relationship. Franny cleared her throat. "I’ve come to a decision." She nodded. Ellen took a deep breath. "About what?" she asked. "About us." Franny said. "Ok," Ellen said, she knew it was coming but she couldn’t believe it some how. It had felt so right with Franny, it was baffling to her that it was going to end this way. In a dark van, in someone’s drive way. Franny looked at her unable to say what she wanted to because it meant so much to her and now it was over. It was over and she had ended it. Ellen felt like she was dying inside. Like an orchid left in the hot sun, its petals stripped of nourishment, wilting and with drawing. Franny took a deep breath, "This is so hard for me." She sniffled, "Its so hard because I wanted it so bad, I wanted it to work for me and for us." Ellen’s eyes watered up and began to spill over her face. "Ellen,…" Franny choked, "I’m not returning to school." "What?" Ellen asked shaking her head and looking at Franny. She couldn’t understand this. Franny wiped the tears off her face with the back of her sleeve. "I’m not returning to school, I’ll move anywhere with you Ellen." Ellen sat dumbfounded this was not what she was expecting at all. "Franny I…" Ellen couldn’t finish. She started sobbing harder than Franny had ever seen her cry. Ellen didn’t just cry she crumbled. Franny held her against her chest as Ellen sobbed heavy body wracking sobs. "Franny… Frrrrannnny" she cried over and over. "Shhhh, honey it’s ok." Franny rocked her back and forth. "It’s ok now sweetheart." Franny comforted her, "I’ve made my choice, and its you. It’s always been you." Ellen wiped away her tears, and sat up. "Franny, I’ve made a decision too. We won’t move anywhere that there’s not a school for you to attend. I was going to tell you at the end of the weekend. I wanted to move to small town so I could corner the market, but that’s my own greed I wasn’t thinking about us, I’m sorry." They hugged each other tightly in an embrace that bonded them for life. Ellen was to Franny what the sun was to the earth. The giver of life, warmth and brightness. Against all adversity EVERYTHING BURNS IN THE MANE OF THE SUN.
They ascended the steps of the house. Franny holding Ellen’s hand delicately in her own, dragging Puffy behind her. As they knocked on the door they heard the sound of laughter. Franny squeezed Ellen’s hand tightly and smiled up at her. Ellen smiled back down on Franny. As the door swung open Trish greeted them warmly and invited them in. The warmth of the house enfolded around them, they were among friends and it felt good. Ellen smiled and hugged everyone she knew as tears streamed down her face. "Oh my gosh, You guys certainly know how to make a girl cry." She beamed. They certainly do.
When you’re on a golden sea you don’t need no memory
Just a place to call your own as we drift into the zone
On an island in the sun we’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine I can’t control my brain.
-Island In The Sun-
-Weezer-
She wanted a little magic, what she got was a better. Ellen and Franny stood in the gathering crowd, which numbered 10 by the time they had pooled into the small foyer by the front door. Franny felt a little intimidated by the crowd, Ellen could feel it in her soul. She leaned over slowly and whispered in Franny’s ear, never taking her eyes off the group in front of them. "Lets give them a little magic," Ellen whispered. It made Franny smile inside and out; Ellen had said that to her the day at the beach. Some people were staring and leering at them as they strolled down the sandy turf. They were holding hands and laughing while people tilted their sunglasses down to have a better look at the two dykes who happened to be mucking up their perfectly good day at the beach. Ellen felt her insides crawl with rage as she noticed this little blonde tart sitting on a beach towel. She looked them over for a moment and then pushed her shoulders back to show off her boobs and then began patting and rubbing her boyfriends arm. Ellen knew what it meant, "Can’t you find a man honey?" She turned to Franny quickly, and whispered, "Let’s give them a little magic." She leaned forward and kissed Franny deeply on the lips as the sun pressed warmly against the sides of their faces.
Franny found Ellen’s hand and drew strength from her grasp. The introductions began. Most of them Franny and Ellen already knew. Trish and Harry, Laurie and Mark, and Ricky and Polly from their party earlier this summer, and Wendle. Franny’s eyes got big and surprised when they saw Wendle step out from behind Harry. "Wendle!" Franny cried. Wendle smiled back, "how are you Franny?" He asked with a nod. Franny was about to open her mouth to say something when a lady stepped up behind Wendle and wrapped her arms around him. She was a tall lady, taller than Ellen with long black curly hair and big blues eyes. Wendle turned his head and looked up and back at her and then turned back to Franny and smiled a bright smile. "This is Robin," he said to them. Franny’s mouth fell open and she smiled a gleeful smile and clapped her hands together. "It’s so nice to meet you Robin!!" She cried. Robin chuckled a small laugh, "it’s nice to meet you too Franny." She wasn’t exactly sure why Franny was so happy to meet her, but it felt nice.
Pink. She was pink, and Ellen’s height with the reddest hair Franny had ever seen. She bolted through the crowd with the energy of a super nova and was on them in an instant. "Hi!!!! There’s cake and balloons!!, and Oh my God its so much fun!!!" She turned and bolted back through the crowd again. They watched a tail of a pink party dress fly back into the living room with the speed of a comet. Franny and Ellen turned to each other and stared for a moment unsure of what to say. Everyone started laughing at the same time until their laughter filled the whole house. When they had calmed down a little a man with blackish gray hair stepped forward and held out his hand for both of them to shake. "Hi, I’m Dan Gameward, its nice to meet you." Dan jerked his head towards the living room, "That was Virginia, sorry she’s had a little too much cake." Everyone laughed again. Franny and Ellen stepped into the crowd as it circled around them. They felt enfolded in the arms of friends.
Donald Willis was also among friends; Counselors with the local police department that wanted to speak with him about what he witnessed. They wanted to be his, ‘support network.’ Donald thought it was great to have a ‘support network.’ Really they were nothing more than the bottom feeders in a fish tank with their big fat lips stuck to the side of the tank. They patted him on the back and gave him a hug, really they were sucking up evidence and making sure that all the facts matched. Just in case someone from Anna’s family decided to file a big fat lawsuit against the police department for wrongful death. If that was the case, then old Donald’s testimony would be important wouldn’t it? So it would be best just to build a nice little cocoon around old Donald and surround him with the proper people. Just to help him over come the terrible events he witnessed, and to make sure he didn’t start talking to the wrong people. Donald felt pretty happy as he left the Sheriffs office that night; why you might even say he felt down right cared for. He jumped into his Ford Pinto and pushed a tape in the tape deck
The living room was large and inviting. Harry and Trish had a quality home theatre system that was playing a Disney movie. Wendle and Robin took a seat back down in front of the screen. Trish was busy filling up refreshments and making sure the food table was fully stocked. Ellen crept up behind her and started whispering something in her ear. She looked back a Franny for a moment and then laughed and nodded her head. Franny watched as Trish pointed off toward the hallway and smiled at Franny. Ellen nodded again and left her with the refreshments. "Come on pumpkin, let’s get you dolled up for the party." Ellen took Franny’s hand and led her off back to the front door where they had come in. Their bag of supplies was still lying on the floor along with Puffy. Ellen picked up their bag and guided Franny down a small dimly lit hall to a door. She knocked once and listened. When no one answered she turned the doorknob and led her in. Franny’s eyes looked around with amazement as she saw what was inside.
The room was decked out in cartoon animal prints. It had a big happy clown for a lamp, and baby blue curtains with elephant prints on them. There was a huge crib in the corner with stuffed toys lying all around. In the other corner of the room was a large change table built out of heavy wooden beams. Franny’s eyes got wide when she saw it all. She couldn’t believe that Trish and Harry had put this room together for their play times, it was like something out of a dream. Ellen watched Franny looking around the room and she smiled. "Don’t get any idea’s for our house Missy, we have to put it up for sale when we get back." Franny nodded and shrugged. She thought the room was nice, she had to admit. What she really liked was the huge change table with its large plastic covered mattress. The mattress was about the size of a twin mattress on a regular bed but it was covered in a white plastic with a balloon print. Underneath the frame were shelfs with packs of diapers of all different brands. Ellen got the idea that everyone had brought their own and just stuck them under there to use when they needed. There were Depends, Attends, and Molicares. There was also an assortment of cloth diapers and a few pairs of plastic pants, also was a big white pale in the room with a locking lid for diaper changes. Harry jokingly put a HAZMAT symbol on the side of the pale. Ellen wrinkled her nose when she thought about poor Trish having to empty that thing at the end of the party. "All right!" Ellen said turning around and taking Franny by the shoulders. Ellen stripped off Franny’s pink sweater coat, folded it nicely and put it down on the chair next to the change table. She smiled and began to unbutton Franny’s shirt. The white blouse came off like a light skin and dropped to the floor leaving Franny standing topless in her black slacks. Ellen’s hands caressed lightly over the pink swelling bumps of her nipples. Franny closed her eyes and pushed her chest towards Ellen in a passionate trance. "Mmmm honey, they’re like pretty flowers." She whispered and leaned over and planted a light kiss on each of Franny’s nipples. Franny sighed deeply and wrapped her arms around Ellen in an embrace. Ellen pushed her lips greedily against the side of Franny’s face. Her tongue found the sensitive spot behind Franny’s ear and she licked in a quick moist stabbing motion back there. She could feel Franny’s body turn to jelly and she squeezed Ellen tightly to hang on.
"Come on muffin," Ellen whispered she wasn’t too anxious to have a rendezvous in a strange bedroom, in someone else’s house. Ellen helped Franny up on to the change table, and pulled out her diapers. "Cloth? Or disposable?" She asked holding up the package of Depends and the cloth diaper in two hands. "My fwoff ones forst." Little Franny said with a smile. Ellen thought that was just fine. She put the disposables back and headed over to the change table with the cloth diaper and Franny’s plastic pants. Franny smiled as she lay on the big change table. This was going to be one super weekend.
She takes me on a rockin stroll if you won’t wave guess I won’t know
As I roll by I hope you’ll throw a smile at me. This here pram is all I’ve known
I won’t go walking till I’ve grown and all I’ve been shown is all I ever want to see
People’s knees, and trunks of trees. Smile at me.
-Rockin Stroll-
-Lemonheads-
There was never silence. The change room where Franny lay waiting for Ellen to diaper her seemed like a peaceful solitude compared to the laughter, and murmur of the party going on outside the room. Ellen turned and pressed the play button on a small stereo under the window by the change table. A soft gentle children’s lullaby began to play. Franny sighed and felt her body melt into the mattress beneath her back. "This is going to feel nice hey muffin," Ellen said delicately as she placed the cloth diaper on the table and pulled out her powder and lotion. Franny smiled up at her with a look of pure love in her eyes. Ellen was sure it was an energy emanating from her very being, encompassing the both of them like a force field, which was indestructible by outside forces. "I love you." Franny said. It stopped Ellen in her tracks. She heard Franny say she loved her all the time but this time it was different. It was as if she found in herself a kind of peace, and had accepted it. "I love you" meant, "your everything I’ll ever need." It brought tears to Ellen’s eyes again and she bent over and planted a kiss on Franny’s forehead. They held hands for a moment and then Ellen finally snapped herself out of it. She took hold of the soft cloth diaper and slid it underneath Franny. Franny lifted her bottom off the table and lightly put it back down as she felt the softness of the cloth diaper underneath her. She smiled and wiggled her bottom against it for a second making Ellen laugh. "Mmmm comfy soft huh?" Ellen asked picking up the bottle of lotion. "Yeah," Franny giggled and placed both hands over her vagina and pressed down lightly. "Mmmm baby likes this doesen’t she?" Ellen teased squeezing the pink lotion in the palm of her smooth hands. Franny clenched her teeth and looked up with an excited smile. Ellen closed her eyes lightly and licked her lips looking down seductively at Franny. Franny’s body responded to the stimulus as if she could feel Ellen’s passion in her stare. She lifted her hips off the table and arched her back a little displaying the pink swelling mound of her vagina for Ellen to see clearly. "Ooops there’s my muffin." Ellen teased rubbing the lotion into her hands, "There’s my peach." Her voice took on a sultry whisper at the end that drove Franny mad. Ellen took her postion between Franny’s legs.
In the living room the party continued unabated. Everyone who was going to be was in baby mode. Including Virginia. At the moment Virginia had found herself a nice perch sitting on top of the back of the couch with her feet on the seat. "Virginia come down from there!" Dan said in a stern voice. She smiled at him wickedly and remained where she was. Virginia could be a bit difficult when she was seeking attention. "Virginia you’d better come down now." Dan pointed his finger at the floor and Virginia laughed and mimicked him pointing at the floor as well. Dan had had enough. He stormed over and grabbed her around the waist throwing her over his shoulder. Her party dress flew up in the back in a billow of pink chiffon. Everybody got a good look at the soggy pull-up on her bottom as he carried her off into the kitchen to scold her and give her a time out. "I’m a Princess!" she shouted as he carried her down the hall towards the kitchen. "Looks like the Princess could use some dry panties." Laurie laughed as they passed her by, she reached over and pulled her dress down for her.
Donald Willis was home. His pinto pulled into the parking garage and he stepped out locking the door behind him. He sprinted up the cement steps to the ground level parking and went around the side of the building to the front doors. As he entered the lobby he stopped at his mailbox. He cursed a little fumbling for the key. He hated getting home late as it was, but this night seemed to go on forever. A single letter fell to the floor and he bent over slowly to pick it up, feeling the joints in his legs pop with the strain. He smiled as he read the address on the envelope and turned to ascend the stairs to his apartment.
Her hands came down in a slow wanting fashion over top of Franny’s labia. The smooth greasy feel of the lotion seemed to envelope her and she pushed her hips up to meet them in a fiery expression of lust. "Slowly honey," Ellen chimed. Franny whined a bit and thrust her hips up again this time grinding them in to the greasy warm palms of Ellen’s hands. "Ellen please," Franny begged in a small voice. "I want it." Ellen smiled at her, "Baby’s don’t always get what they want do they?" She asked and laughed a little. Franny whined again and pushed Ellen’s hand down hard on to her labia. "Do it!" she moaned, "Just make me do it." Ellen kissed the insides of Franny’s thighs lightly and smiled at her from between her legs. "Uh huh, I will muffin." Ellen said, planting light kisses all the way down Franny thighs into her pelvis. Franny gasped and tried to arch her back again. Ellen had a hand placed firmly against Franny’s tummy and wouldn’t let her up. With her other hand she worked gently needing in the lotion on the soft silky orbs of Franny’s bottom. Franny’s eyes were closed tightly and the back of her hand rested lightly against her forehead. Ellen smiled wickedly as she pulled up the front of the cloth diaper. Franny felt the diaper around her and lifted her head. "You said, I was going to do it." She looked frustrated. "You will," Ellen smiled, "Just not now."
In the kitchen Dan was trying to explain. "Virginia seriously, this type of behavior isn’t acceptable, at home its different, it’s me and you but don’t be this way in front of all these people." Dan was almost pleading with her. Virginia smiled and placed a finger in the side of her mouth and sucked on it for a moment. She turned back and forth on her feet locking her eyes on his. She looked slightly pouty for a moment and then said, "Daddy?" Dan sighed, he was hoping for a grown up conversation. "What?" he asked in a frustrated tone. "Am I your Princess?" she asked in a teasing tone pulling the finger from her lips with a wet smacking sound. Virginia stole a glance down at the crotch of his pants. She was feeling quite stimulated with his pleas for proper behavior. She was controlling him with her nature. Virginia wanted him to make her submit to his will. She wanted him to bend and mold her until she would obey, and when she did he would have her impaled against him. Under his power, she wanted it with every fiber of her being. Her white little socks slid a little farther apart across the linoleum. Virginia placed a thumb in her mouth for a month, and relaxed as she felt a hot torrent of pee flowing into the padding of the pull-ups. The waterproof fabric of the disposable underpants to their fullest extent and could hold no more. The warm trickles of urine began to run down her legs and drip onto her socks. Virginia smiled at him feeling it all happen. He hadn’t noticed yet but he would. She was supposed to tell him when she needed to change her pants, she had simply forgotten.
Donald was sitting in his favourite chair. It was a raggy old recliner, which the upholstery had decided to quit a long time ago. It was cracking and peeling off in places. The chair looked like a giant living lump shedding its skin in the centre of his living room. Donald smiled as he felt his poor old back settle into the chair. "Haaaa! Snug as a bug!" He smiled and sighed. The letter sat on his lap unopened. He looked at it for a moment with glee feeling the excitement of anticipation flood over him. He picked it up and put it to his nose and inhaled deeply letting out a huge sigh as he did. She had never used any perfume on the paper. Monica never did that, Donald only smelled the letter cause he saw people on TV do it. He thought that’s what you were supposed to do when you got a letter from a girl friend. Donald was the brightest bulb on the tree. The letter started:
"Dearest Donald;
I’ve had some time with my thoughts recently. I think that when two people care about each other there’s nothing that can separate them. Sometimes I wonder if you think about me when you’re at home or at work. Sometimes I scare myself because a whole day has gone by and I realized that I haven’t thought about you. When this happens I tell myself that I was busy that day, or this problem came up or that. I can’t keep lying to myself Donald. I want to love you, to feel you with me, sometimes so bad it hurts. But I don’t feel this way all the time and that scares me. When I realized that I did feel this way I thought that it might be a good idea to call things off for a while.
Donalds mouth dropped open, "No," he shook his head. Donald had just driven the three and a half hours to spend the weekend with her; She seemed fine then, there was no indication that it was going to fall apart. He flipped over the letter and read the postmark. It was dated the day he left her standing outside on the porch as he drove off to head back for another week of work. Donald closed his eyes and pictured her turning to go back inside, back inside to write the letter that would crush him. He felt like a fool, why hadn’t he known?
".....I know this is going to come as a surprise to you and it hurts me to think of you reading it. I just wanted to let you know before we got more deeply involved that I don’t think this can work. I’m sorry Donald, I do care for you and always will. Lets try to still have some type of relationship, even if it’s a small one."
~Monica~
Donald was having the worst day of his entire life. Everybody remembers one particular day that they can finish up a story with by saying "and that was the worst day of my life." Donald didn’t have one of those; until now. So big fat tears rolled down his big fat cheeks as he wept into the cracking, peeling arm of his reclining chair. Out of the dewy moist corners of his eyes he spied the telephone. It was a cheap black push button thing. The handset was covered in grease from the many phone calls he had taken while gobbling down pizza. It felt oily in your hand when you picked it up. Donald grabbed the phone and pushed the buttons frantically. He needed to speak with his ‘support network’. Donald had begun talking to ‘the right people’, and he was going to be just, ‘fine’.
The plastic pants slid up her smooth white thighs with a whispery sound. Ellen pulled them snugly over top of the diaper. She watched the fabric bunch and fill out the plastic shell of the pants. When it was done she made Franny stand up and helped her off the table. Franny’s feet came down on the floor and her tiny breasts jiggled a little. "All right, lets see what we got in here!" Ellen said pulling open the bag and fishing around inside for something for Franny to wear. "Here’s baby’s dress!" Ellen chimed turning around to show Franny. Her eye’s got wide when she saw it.
He noticed the glistening trails of wetness running down her legs a moment later. She stood smiling at him looking so prim and proper in her party dress. She saw him notice. Slowly she lifted the hem of her dress up to her chest and spread her legs really wide apart to give him the best possible view of her soggy bulging pull-ups. "Wet, Daddy." She giggled in an impish way. Dan was about to loose control. There was a second when the air seemed to fill with electricity and then he stormed over and grabbed her by the arm. She felt the thrill in the pit of her stomach as he took her. She had set him off finally and it was bliss. Dan dragged her down the hall, as the wet trails of pee on her legs felt icy cold against the warm flesh of her legs. He pulled her too the change room but when he found it was occupied he dragged her back in the other direction and pulled her into the bathroom. Once inside he locked the door and stood in front of it, folding his arms. "Get them off!" he said. "No," she whined folding her arms behind her back and shooting him a gentle passive glance. "Now!" he demanded. Virginia bit down on her bottom lip and looked up at him with her sparkling green eyes. A small smile broke out on her face for a moment, "You take them off." She just moped. Dan crossed the room in a second and threw her dress up. He yanked the disposable underpants off her in a single motion and pulled them down her legs. Virginia delicately stepped out of them. As soon as they were off he pressed her against the counter beside the sink and made her lean over. Dan pulled her dress up in the back. The firm round orbs of her bottom stared at him teasingly. The scent of urine lingered around her and she bit down on her finger as she felt his hand smack against the damp cheeks of her fanny. "Daddy say it!" She whined feeling his hard hand on her bottom again with a loud smack. "Bad!, You’re a bad girl for wetting your pants!!" His voice was heavy and almost chalky in the air. She gasped and closed her eyes tight. "Put it in me," she begged, "Oh god put it in me." Dan stepped back and unzipped his fly. Virginia almost cried out when she heard him fumbling around in his pants. The next thing she knew was the pressure. She felt him stabbing her in the sensitive throbbing space between her legs. She felt the inner walls of her vagina being invaded by his hot shaft and she cried out for a moment. It felt like he was tearing her, and then he was in. He was buried deep, so deep she could almost feel him touching her cervix. Virginia spread her legs wider to accommodate him. Her vaginal opening was swollen and moist around him. She felt his pressure inside her like he was filling her up with heat and electricity. The nerve endings of her clitoris were firing in prickly heated explosions beneath her labia. It was all she could do to stand it. One touch was all it would take now. She grinned and evil grin as her hand trailed to find the one spot his penis could not touch, and she touched it and was off. It wasn’t the best orgasm she could have. There wasn’t the feeling of it traveling down her head over her body and into her knees, nor did it feel as if her whole body was contracting into a tight little ball, but it would suffice. It was like static on her skin for a moment and her toes curled. Her knees began to shake a little and a small whimper escaped her lips. Then it trailed off, Virginia felt it disappear into the shadows. Dan exploded a moment later.
Hope climbs on top of the piano reaching out towards the warmth of the sun
And some man tries to ask her down. Well now maybe that’s where she belongs
"My God," she said "I’m a sunflower that wants" "My God," he said
"This woman is gone"
In to the dark is there anybody there?
-Hope-
-Our Lady Peace-
Franny’s mouth dropped open. She had no idea where Ellen had gotten it. "Ellen, where did you get that?" She asked. Ellen laughed, "I rented it from a costume place, although if you look good in it I may just buy it for you." She chuckled a little and turned it around to have a look at it. It was a perfect replica of Strawberry Shortcake’s dress, including the smock and puffy hat. Franny stared at it for a while, and then broke up laughing, "No," she shook her head, "I’m not wearing that." Ellen looked disappointed. "Why not?" she asked, "It’s supposed to be a Halloween party." Franny raised an eyebrow and looked at the costume again. "Come on Franny, you’ll look so cute." Franny looked at Ellen for a moment, she obviously had gone through a lot of trouble to get the costume for her to wear. "Oh alright, but not for the whole night." Ellen smiled and giggled with excitement, "You’re going to be so cute!!!" she said rushing over to put the costume on Franny. "There was a red wig with it but I won’t make you wear that." Ellen said as she slid the dress over Franny’s head. And pulled the smock down in front to straighten it out. Ellen went back into the bag and pulled out her brush and two elastics for her hair with red plastic bobbles on them. She pulled Franny’s hair into two ponytails and pushed them through the elastic and twisted it to hold them in place. She stepped back and looked at Franny. Ellen giggled hysterically and clapped her hands. "Its so sweet!!!" she squealed. "Your getting loony in your old age." Franny teased feeling happy that Ellen had said she looked sweet but also silly in the costume. Franny looked down at herself, "Uhm Ellen this costume is too small!" she said noticing the hem of the dress barely came down to her thighs. "Well it’s for a younger girl, but you’re so tiny, it looks fine." Franny realized it was barely covering her bottom and you could see her diaper in plain view. "Well my things are showing." She said looking up at Ellen. "That’s ok pumpkin I brought your rumba’s" Ellen pulled out Franny’s pink rumba’s from the bag and helped her step into them. Franny pulled them up over her plastic pants and fit them into place. Ellen stepped back again and took another look. She smiled broadly and "This is so cute!!!!" Franny rolled her eyes a bit and shuffled her feet. Ellen picked up the fluffy nightcap from the bag and placed it on her head and then pinned it there with bobby pins. She took one last look at Franny and squealed. Ellen went to open the door to the bedroom. Franny felt a moment of sheer terror as the door swung open. She didn’t want to go out there dressed like this. Franny looked so much the victim standing in front of the open door. Ellen smiled and whispered. "They had a Girl Guide costume there, I was going to make you wear that instead, so be happy." She gave Franny a smack on the bottom. Franny giggled, "God, what is it with you and Girl Guide uniforms?" Ellen cackled a silly laugh and hugged her close for a moment.
In the living room all conversation came to a halt. That was until Laurie and Trish squealed with laughter and excitement at seeing Franny dressed up. Everyone had a good laugh and complimented her on her choice of outfits. Franny was happy that everyone thought she was cute instead of silly, but she was happier for Ellen who was proud that she had thought of the costume idea in the first place. Somehow it made up for the fact that Franny was the only one dressed up.
Wendle was enjoying the movie. He was so happy that Robin accepted him. He would have done anything for her, and she knew it. She smiled at him with all the love one person could send to another. The music from the movie played softly to them.
‘Sha la la la la
The music play
Do what the music say
You got to kiss the girl
You’ve got to kiss the girl’
Wendle did. They sat on the floor making out for about a good five minutes until Harry said he was going to get the garden hose to cool them off. Everybody had a good laugh.
Mark and Laurie were snuggled together on the couch watching the movie as well, and Franny thought she might have a chat with Harry because she hadn’t seen him in so long. She strolled through the living room holding a piece of carrot cake in her tiny had.
"Hey there shortcake." Harry said leaning back in his chair at the small work table in the living room. Franny smiled and nibbled at the frosting on her cake. "Hi Harry how have you been?" She asked licking some frosting off her lips and smiling. "Purdy good!" He said, "Can’t complain." Franny looked around the room. "This is another great party." "Yeah, it’s turning out pretty good. We’re going to have a bon fire later in the back and have scary ghost stories." Harry picked up a cupcake and tore off the paper skin around the bottom and popped the whole thing in his mouth and chewed it up. "When are you guys going to have a party?" He asked chewing up the last bit of the cup cake and swallowing it. "Probably not for a while, Ellen and I are moving you know." Franny rocked back and forth on her feet and looked at him innocently. She could feel the warm trickle of pee seeping into the crotch of the cloth diaper making it heavy and warm. Franny bit into her carrot cake "You are? Where are you two moving too?" Harry asked picking up a small plastic cup of milk and swallowing it. "I don’t know," Franny said trying to keep her composure as the trickle had turned into a flood that currently making her fanny all soggy. "We just decided we were going to a little while ago." She said, Franny wanted to find Ellen she felt a little nervous wetting herself in front of someone else even if she had done it before, and knew Harry.
Virginia and Dan came back a few moments later. Virginia seemed a bit more settled and she took a seat on the couch quietly. Dan sat down beside her and cuddled with her. "Feeling a bit tired honey?" Laurie asked as they sat down on the couch. "Yeah, this is a fun party though." She said running a hand through her red hair and focusing on the movie for a moment. She’d need a little while to slip back into baby mode after the bathroom incident. The padding of her fresh pull-ups rubbing against her had already begun to work on that matter quiet nicely.
"Hey there pumpkin!" Ellen wrapped her arm around Franny’s shoulder and pulled her close. Franny leaned her head against Ellen’s chest for a moment and looked up at her. Trish smiled at her, "That’s such a sweet costume, I could just eat her up!" Ellen squeezed Franny tightly and then whispered in her ear. Franny felt Ellen’s breath against her ear and it sent chills through her, "Me too," Ellen whispered. Franny smiled she was feeling pretty darn good.
As the movie credits rolled, Wendle and Robin got up from their spot on the floor and headed to the change room. Wendle shot a smile at Franny as he passed her by. She smiled back feeling happy for him. Ellen noticed the direction they were headed and thought about Franny. "How are you?" She asked, shooting Franny a glance. Franny smiled and rocked a little on her feet again. She was enjoying the feeling of the wet fabric against her skin. "Good," She said with an expression that told Ellen that she was good, very good. "Wet?" Ellen asked. Franny shook her head, "nah uh," she said looking back as she started off for the table of desserts. Ellen caught her by the arm and pulled her over. She shoved a hand down the back of the costume and inside the seat of Franny’s pink rumba’s. She gave the bum of the plastic pants a squeeze. Franny blushed and looked around. "You’re next!" Ellen pulled her hand out and gave her a swat on the fanny. Franny pouted a little and started for the dessert table again.
Franny was munching on a butter tart and watching everyone interacting when Harry came in and made an announcement. "We’re starting the bon fire out back as we speak so everyone should dress warmly out there and get ready for some scary, scary tales!" Franny smiled; Harry was obviously switching back and forth from baby mode to big Harry. She wondered which mode Trish preferred him to be in when he was dealing with open flame. She had a feeling it wasn’t baby mode. Franny held the butter tart to her lips. Its light chewy crust nestled delicately between her fingers as she stared across the room at Ellen. She pushed her tongue out just a little from between her lips and pressed it against the sweet, sugary filling of the tart and gave Ellen a nasty little smile. Ellen gave her a smile right back and closed her eyes a little as if to say "Oh yeah? Come get some." They both smiled at each other for a moment and then turned their attention elsewhere in the room.
Mostly everyone was turning their attention to Virginia who was chasing a balloon around the room. She’d give it a good smack from her hand and then run over in a game of solo volleyball. "If I get this one, you all have to give me candy!!" she shouted. "More like Ritalin," Ellen heard Laurie whisper to herself. She couldn’t help but laugh a little. Virginia was a bit wild but she really had become the life of the party. Ellen saw Dan sitting quietly on the couch with his head resting in the palm of his hand. She strolled over to have a chat. "She’s full of energy huh?" Ellen chuckled and sat down next to him on the couch. Dan laughed a little, "Oh yeah, well…." He paused "...she’s not usually this rambunctious at home. She’s just excited and all." Ellen nodded. "She’s sweet though, very peppy." Dan nodded and looked over at Franny. "That’s a pretty cute costume. Are you two a couple?" He asked. Ellen stared at him for a moment, she always wondered if she should tell the truth or start spinning a lie when someone asked her that question. "Yes," she said in a flat tone and watched his body language to see if he had a problem with it. "Nice! She’s a sweet heart." He smiled. Ellen smiled too. "I wish Virginia could be more like Franny, she’s so calm and relaxed." Ellen laughed thinking back to the Popsicle incident, "Franny has her moments." Ellen said. Her and Dan were becoming quick friends.
It was a while before Franny and Ellen could actually get into the change room. Ellen wished that it would have been warm enough to set the van up like they had done at Lake Wamatta, but it was just too cold. Eventually they got in there. Ellen went to work stripping off Franny’s costume and folding it up. She didn’t want Franny to wear it outside by the fire anyway. Franny was naked again. The only thing she wore was the soggy wet diaper and plastic pants as she stood by the change table with her thumb lodged between her lips. She looked at Ellen with big innocent eyes. "What are you looking so sad about?" Ellen asked as she folded the costume and put it back in the bag. "Taking a pee?" She teased noticing Franny’s legs were spread a little further apart than normal. Franny didn’t say anything she just pushed her nose in the air a little and sulked again, as if she were so right and everyone else was so wrong. Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth with a wet smacking sound, and looked at Ellen with a wicked grin. Ellen watched Franny’s slender trim form sway back and forth at the hips. Her abs weren’t defined from working out but she had such little body fat that you could see them contracting and moving as she rocked back and forth. Ellen knew she was working herself over, rubbing herself against the wet swollen crotch of the diaper as she stared into the pools of Ellen’s eyes. "Hmmmm looks like your having a pretty good time over there," Ellen said pushing the bag aside with her foot and stomping over to Franny at a brisk pace. Ellen threw her arms around the warm bare flesh of Franny’s shoulders and they lingered in a deep hot kiss. Ellen’s hand came up to Franny’s face and held it there inches away from hers. "My Francis," she whispered. It made Franny feel weak inside just hearing Ellen speak to her that way. They kissed. They kissed as though their souls were entwined in a sparking, whirling, force that flew in the face of nature itself. Fingers on the tender nape of her neck, single strands of hair touching here and there; Franny sighed and drew a breath. Ellen was taking her to the edge. At the edge there was fire. A swelling monster of a thing that threatened to consume you, Franny wanted to be consumed. It was taking too long though. They heard people filing outside to the bon fire, they knew they had to join them, and so Ellen pulled away. Franny felt the stinging saltiness of disappointment spread through her blood.
The soggy wetness of her cloth diaper felt heavy and cold against her, as she lay flat against the change table. Ellen unpinned it and pulled it down. Franny swollen hot labia was like a beckon against the white tone of the diaper she lay on. "So pissy," Ellen said in a scolding voice pulling the wet diaper out from under her. She balled it up and stuffed it inside the plastic pants. She would wash it out before they left. Franny chewed on the tip of her index finger and smiled up at Ellen, teasing her with her womanhood. "You smell pretty pissy honey." Ellen said as if she were deflecting her taunts with teasing insults. Franny giggled and lifted her hips off the mattress of the change table. All at once she relaxed her legs and let her pelvis fall back against the cold vinyl mat beneath her. Her bum cheeks made a smacking sound against it. Franny smiled broadly. Ellen pulled out a disposable diaper and tossed it down beside Franny. Franny looked at it for a moment with disappointment in her eyes. "Sorry muffin but everybody’s heading outside; we have to get moving here." Ellen said. She was feeling a little frustrated as well. Franny resigned herself to waiting once more. Ellen pulled out a wipe and cleaned her off methodically and the powdered and diapered her up again.
Franny wore what she had worn when she arrived. She was a little sad that Ellen hadn’t packed anything else for her to wear besides the costume. She still had the pony tails in and she did look pretty cute as it was with her sweater coat and tight fitting black slacks. Her diaper was pretty evident underneath them as they headed for the front door. Not a soul was left in the house, and they both felt a little self-conscious about being the last ones out there.
Outside the fire licked up at the blackness of the night, and cold white pin pricks of light from stars were strewn across the sky. Franny inhaled and pushed out a greyish white mist from her lips that rose into the sky like a ghost. Ellen took her hand and guided her to the warmth of the fire, into the light. They were enjoying the stories. Harry and Trish had hooked up a stereo outside and had gotten an audio tape packed full of ghost stories, they were listening to one as they sat around the fire bundled up in blanket sipping hot chocolate. The voice of the gentleman on the audio tape was deep and drone like he gave you the creeps alone, the story he was telling was almost too much.

"Ida May lay on the floor of the parlour. A pillow propped under her chest with the record player in front of her. Her record player was old, but Daddy had promised to fix it for her. It still played well enough, but the hinges on the lid were loose and the rubber insulation near the plug was worn clean through. Daddy told her it was ok, so long as she minded herself when she unplugged it. Ida May had just finished listening to Andy Griffith’s ‘What it was; was football’ and was still giggling over the skit. The Man Creature grinning in the corner knew all too well, that ‘What it was; was business’. His cold black eyes squirmed as he watched her. They were like a writhing nest of fury caterpillars nestled in the sockets of his cranium. He continued to grin. Ida May’s little hand reached out to unplug the machine. His grin grew larger with every millimetre her little hand drew nearer the cord. It grew and grew until his squirrelly eyes and huge smile seemed to engulf his whole face. Right before her tiny palm came down on the exposed bare wire, the Man Creature became so excited he balled up his rotten apple colored tongue and bit down on it with his hundreds of tiny yellow teeth. They punctured the flesh of his tongue and a rusty colored liquid oozed from the gash spilling over his greyish lips and down his chin. The lights flickered and blacked out, the Man Creature disappeared into the shadows. Ida May was safe in the arms of oblivion."
END OF THE SCARY PART, CONTINUE READING HERE
They all sat silently listening to the crackle of the fire. You could feel the tension in the air. Franny was beginning to wish old Johnny from lake Wamatta was there to sing songs instead of listening to this tape. Harry hadn’t reviewed the tape before they played it. He might have chosen a tape more suited for children if he had. Sometimes though even the scary things mean something, he let the tape play. Franny was snuggled safely next to Ellen who was seated next to Dan and Virginia. Who were next to Mark and Laurie, who in tern were next to Trish and Harry. Wendle and Robin were at the end. Franny noticed Wendle looking back over his shoulder into the dark field behind them. She knew she shouldn’t but it made Franny feel kind of happy inside to see him frightened after what he had done to her at lake Wamatta. Revenge is a dish best served cold, always.
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God
In the belly of a black winged bird.
Don’t try to bleed me
I’ve been here before and I deserve a little more.
-Rain King-
-Counting Crows-
"It’s so hot under here!" Virginia complained kicking off the blanket around her. "I’m so hot I have to cool off a bit," she said to Dan and got up and walked a distance from the fire to let the brisk night air steal the heat from her body. Really she wanted to be alone for a moment. The October chill enfolded around her as she stood off by herself. Virginia inched her way over to the trunk of an apple tree and leaned against it for a moment. She could feel her skin tingling with anticipation, and with the frigid temperature. When she was sure no one was looking she squatted down by the trunk of the tree and pushed.
Franny was feeling snug against Ellen. She sucked greedily on her thumb as she listened to the tape. The next story was a classic, probably one of the best stories ever told. ‘The Tell Tale Heart’ by Edger Allan Poe. Franny knew this one wasn’t very scary, she had read it a couple times. It was one of her favorites.
Virginia was straining with a cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. It was a big one. The seat of her heavy cord pants restrained the load, and she had to push harder. The fire popped and snapped in the background. The tape and sporadic conversation drown out the sound of her grunts. Finally her effort was rewarded in a crackling warm squish as she filled seat of her pull-ups with a warm firm load. She rested her sweaty forehead against her folded forearms and breathed heavily for a moment trying to recover. Even though she was outside she could smell herself already, there was no way she could keep this secret for long. Even if it weren’t so smelly the giant baseball sized lump in the back of her pants would give her away. She stood up and walked slowly back over to the fire. She only hoped Dan would be quiet about it.
Franny had her head resting against Ellen’s thigh as she let go with a pleasing warm squirt of pee into her disposables. They weren’t that wet at the moment, she’d just been dribbling in them for most of the evening. Franny felt content and happy, this party had been yet another great experience to add to her list of great experiences in her adult babyhood. Virginia came back to join them. She walked quickly past everyone and took a seat on the large carpet that had been laid down for people to sit on. She sunk down carefully sitting more on the side of her bottom than directly on it. She pulled the blanket around her as quickly as possible she was shivering now. Not quickly enough apparently. "Someone smells," Laurie announced and looked down the line directly at Franny. Franny pulled her thumb out of her mouth and looked back at Laurie. Everyone got really quite, Franny could hear Ellen sniffing the air around her. Ellen shook her head and shrugged at Laurie. That was when Dan cleared his throat and stood up. "Come on you." He said to Virginia taking her hand and pulling her to her feet. They headed back for the house and Virginia blushed knowing everyone knew her secret. As they headed out Trish got up and caught up to them. After you clean out her pants put her pull-up in a plastic bag before throwing it in the bucket ok? There’s some by the pail. Dan nodded and said thanks. Virginia pouted, "I’m a Princess" she sulked as Dan led her away. Franny giggled as she heard Virginia say that. She looked up at Ellen who was looking back down at her. "Pretty funny huh?" Ellen asked in a serious tone, "We’ll check your pants later on." She said. Franny smiled at her, she knew Ellen was only teasing.
As the party drew to a close, people began to clean up and head home. The drive was too long for Ellen and Franny to make at that time of night. Wendle and Robin, Mark and Laurie were spending the night at Trish and Harry’s place. Franny and Ellen had reserved a room at a local motel, thinking that it would be too crowded there anyway, and they liked their privacy. Ellen originally wanted to stay at the Starlight Inn, where they had originally stayed during the Lake Wamatta party. They discovered a closer motel to Harry and Trish’s place and decided to stay there instead. Wamatta Pines Motor Lodge was a white building with bright green trim. Franny and Ellen pulled up and killed the engine. It was a bit larger than the Starlight, and had an actual lobby attached to it as opposed to the small office at the Starlight. Franny was still in her diaper and so she decided to let Ellen go in and fill out the register. Ellen hopped out of the van and went inside. She returned with a key a few moments later.
The room was quiet nice, and the furniture was modern, the bed looked down right comfy with a big light blue comforter on it. Franny hopped on the bed and spread out. Ellen sauntered over and stood over top of Franny looking down on her. She slowly bent over and unbuttoned her slacks pulling them down over the crinkly surface of the diaper. "What kind of a big girl wears diapers?" She teased as if she just discovered Franny’s secret. Franny giggled, "A good big girl" she said. Ellen laughed and slipped her finger inside the waistband of the diaper and pulled it back. She let it snap against Franny’s tummy and then said, "A big girl maybe but I don’t know how good you are." Franny smiled up at her innocently. Ellen pulled her diaper open again and peeked inside. "Oh, my I was wrong," she said peeking down the front of Franny’s diaper, "I do see something good in there!" Ellen placed her palm against the squishy wet crotch of the diaper and rubbed it back and forth a little. "Are you dirty?" she asked staring into Franny’s eyes. Franny shook her head, she wasn’t messy. "You’re sure?" Ellen asked rubbing a little harder and working up Franny’s excitement. "Yes!" Franny gasped throwing her head back. Ellen tore off the diaper and quickly and exposed Franny completely. She stared down at her for a moment taking in the site of her pink gooey labia before her. She smiled, "I could just eat you up." She said slowly with determination. Franny went crazy and wiggled her hips wildly against the bed. "But first you have to have a shower or a bath. I like my peaches to be cleaned." She smiled. Franny looked up at her for a moment, she knew Ellen was kidding so she got up and went into the bathroom and took a shower. Ellen was waiting for her when she returned. She was stretched out on the bed in her panties and bra. Franny stood naked before her, her hair dripping wet from the shower. Ellen thought of how delicate she looked; like the petals of a lily. She smiled at her warmly and held her arms out in an embrace. Franny got down on her hands and knees and crawled to her across the mattress. Ellen’s loving arms enfolded her; it made her feel alive.
There was warmth, and moisture. There was rubbing and sound. These things surrounded them in the peak of their lovemaking. There were sights of fleshy cheeks, of moist swollen, crevices and folds. There were colors of pink, and flesh, light shades of brown. There were smells of lust and sexes and even the musky scent of places between. At the end there was nothing. Franny felt her orgasm building it seemed to travel from the foot of the bed and sweep over her in a tidal wave. She was bashed aside by the force of it, pushed across the sand like a piece of driftwood and swept over the edge in a cataract of flame. She almost felt herself loose consciousness as she lay across the bed with Ellen’s face buried between her legs. Franny was swept into the shadows.
In the morning they awoke tangled. Their bodies entwined together as if they were one living thing under the sheets. Breakfast with Harry and Trish awaited, and then the trip home. Breakfast was a solemn experience, no one wanted to say good bye but it was inevitable. As the last fork was lifted, the napkins crumpled up and placed on top of the plates. The goodbyes began. There were tears on Franny’s part as there always were. Finally they boarded the van for the trip home.
It was quiet in the van. Franny was sad that another party had come to an end. Ellen sat quietly behind the wheel, they were still a good four hours from being home and already she was thinking about the bookstore and the move ahead of them. Franny stared listlessly out the window at the pine trees, which lined either side of the road. She stared into the shadows of the forest and supposed he was out there, in the shadows. The Man Creature with his squirming eyes. He waited out there; ready to drag you down an alley, or steal the breath from you. She wasn’t afraid; he could never touch you so long as you were protected in the mane of the sun.
