"Nah, just the diapers are fine" I told her.
The woman nodded and handed me the large white plastic bag containing my purchase. "Here you go, enjoy. Oh and before you go just know that the bag is enchanted so no one will see it when you leave. That way you can avoid answering any awkward questions to your parents about why you were buying diapers."
That explained why some of the customers I saw leaving the store before were empty handed. They had actually brought something and it was just invisible.
"Whoa, thanks" I replied not even realizing what a problem that would have been until now.
Thankfully magic once again saves the day.
"And don't forget that the regressions will only happen at night when you sleep depending on whether you're wearing the diaper or not, unless you use the special phase written in the box" she reminded me as I turned to leave. I only made it five steps when the manager suddenly called out to me.
"WAIT!"
Hiding my mild annoyance at being held up I turned back around.
"Sorry, but I almost forgot to tell you that we have a special promotion. First time customers who buy any kind of diapers get to take a stuffed animal from our wall home with them, free of charge" she said before gesturing to the wall next to the register. I looked and saw that it had large shelves lined with stuffed animals of all kinds and that they all looked extremely well made.
"Seriously?" I asked in disbelief.
The woman nodded with a small smile.
Grinning to myself at being able to take home a stuffed companion I walked over to the wall. After a minute of deliberation I settled on choosing a plush red dragon and put it in the bag before heading to the exit.
"Have a nice day" the lady called out.
"Thanks, you too!" I enthusiastically replied with a wave as I re-entered the mall, the bag tightly clutched in my hand.
Walking along the main thoroughfare with the other shoppers I made a detour over to a sitting area. Pulling out my wallet I took out the card with the alteration phase the woman gave me. Being carefully to only say them in my head I read the phase.
"Peanut butter jellyfish panda ice cream. Words must be said in that order by a single person and with no more than three seconds between each word."
Though it was strange I knew the phase had to be to avoid coming up in regular conversation accidentally. Truly no on one in their right mind would ever say such a thing. Taking a couple of minutes to memorize the phase I then tore up the card, tossing the confetti into a nearby trash can.
Leaving the mall I went to my car, got in and proceeded to go straight home. When I got home and walked through the front door, my mom immediately greeted/questioned me on why I didn’t buy anything with my money. She then mentioned how “responsible” I was becoming as I walked up the stairs and into my room. Once the door was shut and securely locked behind me I pulled out my plush dragon toy and the box of diapers, holding the latter in my hands reverently. I was sorely tempted to put one on right now but I resisted, wanting to wait until tonight to don one of the garments. Instead I hid the box and my stuffed animal in the back of my closet, hiding them underneath a pile of dirty clothes. I then turned on my Xbox One and played some video games as well as surfed the web on my laptop, knowing that come tomorrow I'd be too young to have either.
After about four hours my dad knocked on my door.
"Hey Jon, listen the whole family's going out to eat tonight. We're leaving in ten minutes so get ready" he told me before walking back downstairs.
"Alright" I replied as I turned off my computer and got ready.
I walked downstairs to see my parents and little brother Matt waiting for me. My little brother was jumping around, excited for wherever we were going. My parents awed at what the twelve year old brat was doing.
We went outside and got in the car, went to the restaurant which happened to be Olive Garden, and quickly got seated at our table.
It was a relatively nice dinner, but my thoughts kept going back to the magical diapers I had stashed in my closet back home. Even after dinner when I went to the bathroom to pee, I found myself wishing I was peeing in a diaper instead of the toilet.
When we got home I wanted nothing more than to go straight to bed. However my mom and dad we should all watch a movie together and I begrudging complied. For the next hour and a half I sat through the flick on the couch with the three of them. It wouldn't have been so bad if my mom didn't keep fussing over Matt throughout the movie. Feeling my jealousy rear its ugly head I had to calmly remind myself that after night I would be the new center of attention.
As soon as the credits rolled I ran up to my room and slammed the door shut. Throwing open the door to my closet I practically ripped open the box of pampers, grabbing one and holding it close to my chest. My heart racing I stripped naked before taking the padding, unfolding it and doing up the tapes. Like I had done before back at the store I lowered the garment to my feet and stepped in one leg at a time. However when I pulled them up this time there was no physical regression. Instead the diaper grew as it went up my thighs, becoming big enough for a teenager as it snugly settled around my hips. Recalling that the regression would only happen when I was asleep I practically jumped into bed after grabbing my dragon plush.
As I laid there underneath the covers, wearing nothing but a diaper and snuggling with the stuffed toy, I thought about being the literal baby of the family again. Oh how I wanted it so bad. The brief time I spent in toddlerhood back in the fitting room was like a small taste and I was now addicted. My desire to be one was so great that when I finally fell asleep I had a dream where I was a toddler again, laughing and playing and using my diaper without a care in the world. Except in the dream I was slightly older than the age I had regressed to back at the store.
