I didnt want to be the oldest by a long shot and being the middle child wouldnt be good enough. My brothers were little devils with me being older being in the middle probably woudlnt help. I wanted to be real young even in diapers. I wanted to be a little devil and get them in trouble as I would be the youngest. So I settle on turning the R knob fourteen times which would make me 2, a baby but not too youn which would make me 6 years younger then Jimmy (8) and 8 years younger then Brad (10). Then maybe theyll see what its like being in trouble for something they didnt do.
I lied down on my bed since it would probably soon becoming a crib and closed my eyes. This being the first time I wanted to surprised of the changes. I turned the knob once....15. I didnt feel different but doubted as it wasnt much of a change......14. I did feel a little different. Maybe thinner but that was about it...13. Now I was starting to feel the difference. I could feel some my teenage body going away like muscles and certain hair....12. Now I felt the braces I had return as I reached pre-teens. Each passing turn was different then the last.....11 now I felt like I had more energy..10...same age as Brad.....9...now I am the middle child but not close enough....8 same age as Jimmy but again not good enough....7..now I am the youngest and my feet cant reach the floor but I wanted to go back further...6 I felt a huge rush of energy which I ignored....5........4...not young enough...3....almost there....then stopped at 2.
I took a deep breath after noticing the newly returned braces were once again gone in fact not much teeth in my mouth at all. I opened my eyes and no longer saw a bedroom for a 16 yr old but one for a kid. In fact it looked like a toddler's room. It hada changing station, toys everywhere, my bed had changed as well. It was now a crib and I was staring at a spinning mobile.
I looked at my reflection at a nearby mirror. Staring back at me was the baby from my old pictures. I had the same dumb hair cut, freckles were more visible. I looked down to see I was wearing a blue shirt and a diaper. The watch had made me a 2 yr old like I had planned. I was now the youngest instead of the oldest.
Thats when I...
