Qaasim, Cooper, Rosalina, Thomas, David, Jessie and Tuffey were in New Orleans with Onita, Little Grace and Big Ella. They had secretly organized things so if everything went according to plan the second phase would be set in motion.
They watched the news as they ate breakfast, they were not expecting the top story as they didn't know Alex had brought along a reporter.
'Our top story this morning comes from Vancouver, British Columbia where Alex Wolff, the Naked Brothers Band Drummer who was almost killed after suffering severe abuse after he disappeared just before Christmas, has returned' The anchor said, 'CNN's Abigail Warrick reports on Alex's return to the city.'
'At about half past eleven yesterday morning, I received a phone call inviting me to report to the world Alex Wolff and Juanita Mendez's story over the past six months, starting right here in Vancouver.' Abigail said.
'Counsellors for both Juanita and Alex organized the return in secrecy, and have said that they hope that a return to the city will resolve some issues that still exist surrounding their ordeal.'
'Vancouver city officials have worked tirelessly to ensure that this trip is a success. Vancouver's emergency services have also dedicated a large number of resources in an attempt for Alex and Juanita to regain confidence in the city.'
'Despite this Police were somewhat embarrassed yesterday. After a very tough and distressing landing at the airport for Alex, he was recognized by fans in the airport terminal. Several fans managed to break past the police escort and rushed Alex, who at this point broke down. To show the commitment the city is prepared to offer, at the request of Alex and his brother Nat the 300m cordon initially planned for has been extended to a one block radius'
They watched as she was asked what the plans were for the day, but she was unable to answer as they thought it best she didn't know.
"Poor Alex," Rosalina said quietly, "I know the fans love him, but he can't cope with them right now,"
"Alex is strong… it may take a while but he'll bounce back" Qaasim said as he hugged Little Grace.
Rosalina gave a weak smile, she remembered when she thought Nat and Little Grace loved each other. Alex's biggest problem then was a misquote over Santa.
"Alex stood up for the Polar Bears and Santa against those stupid press people… he can stand up to a dumb old city," Big Ella said proudly.
"Your right Big Ella," Onita said smiling. They all knew that Big Ella idolized Alex, almost as much as she did Santa.
Everyone's phones then went off as they received txt messages for like the millionth time that day.
'I'm going to the bathroom'
It was from Alex. Because nobody knew where Juanita was staying the last time, nobody could come to rescue him. Since Alex got out of hospital he was fanatical at making sure that everyone knew where he was.
"I know it is comforting for Alex, but he's filling up my inbox," Thomas said as he deleted all the messages from Alex.
"It's just a phase… if not you might want to consider two phones, one for Alex's messages and one for everyone else's" Little Grace said with a little laugh.
Back in Vancouver, Alex groaned holding his stomach as he stumbled to where everyone was waiting.
"What's the matter Alex?" Juanita's foster mom asked.
"I feel like I'm going to be sick," Alex moaned.
"Your just nervous and scared, it was the same for me when I returned to the place it happened." Abigail said warmly.
"I'm so many different types of scared right now," Alex said as Mr Wolff and Abigail began to fuss over him. They seemed awkward about doing it at the same time.
"Like what?" Mr Wolff asked, "Talking will help ease it a little bit,"
Alex didn't look like he wanted to share that information, but he did.
"I'm scared that she'll find me and get me again, I'm scared that someone will try and hurt me, I'm scared of remembering what she did, I'm scared that I'll wet or crap myself in front of everyone… I'm scared that I won't be happy again," Alex said quietly and shaking.
Mr Wolff gave Alex a hug.
"Alex she won't get you, no one will get you." Mr Wolff said.
"What about the other things," Alex whispered uncomfortably.
"Alex we are here to support you. If you are that concerned we could do what we talked about on the plane." Mr Wolff whispered back.
"The thing that they did at the hospital?" Alex whispered back.
"Yes. But only if you are willing to, it's your choice." Mr Wolff whispered in reply.
Alex looked at his dad.
"Do I have to decide this now?" Alex whispered once more.
Mr Wolff was quite shocked to hear this. He was quite disconcerted if Alex thought the problem so serious he was actually considering it.
"Alex if you are going to consider maybe we should talk away from everyone." Mr Wolff whispered.
Alex slowly nodded.
Mr Wolff told Simon that him and Alex were going back to their suite to talk.
Before walking with Alex to the suite next door. They both went in a sat on Alex's bed.
"Alex, I don't want to put any pressure on you, but if you did decide to do it, you would want to do before we get on the bus if you are wanting any privacy about it," Mr Wolff said seriously.
"What do you think?" Alex asked.
"Alex it's not my choice," Mr Wolff said.
"I want to know what you think?"
"Alex are you really that scared it could happen?" Mr Wolff asked quietly.
Alex started to sob.
"It did happen, at the airport yesterday," Alex sobbed.
Mr Wolff hugged his son.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I was too scared, Juanita's foster mom and Abigail helped me get cleaned up," Alex sobbed.
Mr Wolff hugged Alex tighter.
"Alex, I want to ask you two questions before you make a choice."
Alex nodded.
Mr Wolff let go of Alex so he could look into his eyes.
"Are you scared of what others will think?" He asked seriously.
"Only Nat and Juanita and the band," Alex said quietly, if someone else didn't like that could get stuffed, it was the less embarrassing option. "I mean Juanita was saying that I looked cute when they had me wearing them at the hospital,"
Mr Wolff gave a reassuring smile.
"I think Juanita would understand Alex. The hospital had to make her where them to because her bladder was damaged." Mr Wolff reminded him.
"What about Nat… he'll tease me" Alex said.
"Alex, I don't think Nat is that stupid. He knows that it's being cautious about involuntary movements in the digestive track. And if he did I would make him wear them so he knows how it feels," Mr Wolff said.
Alex didn't know what that meant, but assumed it was a discreet way of saying, crapping and pissing ones self.
"Ok, second question, are you really sure that diapers are the answer?"
Alex felt uncomfortable when the question was put like that.
"It would be easier to disguise than peeing my pants or having poop running down my leg," Alex said quietly.
"Why not just go toilet more often,"
"Dad you saw me on the plane, I practically lived on the toilet… if I was going to do that, we might as well go home." Alex said a bit agitated.
"Ok Alex, do you want to do it?" Mr Wolff asked.
Alex was anxious and nervous about doing it. But conceded it was his only option.
Alex nodded.
Alex felt weird once he was diapered. Thankfully his clothes fit well and it was hardly noticeable. But it had thickness between the legs, something Alex wasn't used to.
They crinkled when Alex walked and Mr Wolff was unsure whether or not Alex would go through with it.
"Alex aren't you concerned about the noise?" He asked as Alex put his shoes and socks back on.
Alex looked up at his dad.
"I want some chips."
Mr Wolff was a bit confused but complied. He gave Alex a big bag of chips. Alex poured the chips into a bowl and put the packet in his pocket.
"Problem solved," He said seriously.
Mr Wolff smiled a little, Alex when he wanted to be, was a genius.
"Come on Alex, Everyone will be waiting." Mr Wolff said giving Alex a reassuring smile.
Alex followed his dad.
"It feels weird when I walk," Alex complained
"Don't worry you'll get used to it." Mr Wolff said.
"Is that a good thing?" Alex muttered to himself.
