37. Back to School

Chapter 37 – Back to School

The summer was coming to an end, thoughts of returning to school weighed heavily on the kids' minds, especially for Alvin, Marvin and Ryan, all of whom were going into middle school. Heidi was also feeling a little apprehensive about entering her sophomore year in high school. Max and Simon were going to be in the same fifth grade class together. Theodore was going into fourth grade. He feels that he would still connect with Max despite a grade difference.

Marvin had Alvin over for a day in the weekend before they prepared for school. Whilst on the computer, Marvin's interest in games ramped up and he'd heard of E3 in May, but never pursued the news on what came of it. It was the first conference of pure gaming, the pair sat in front of the computer and he typed in 'E3 1995' into the search engine and up popped some results relating to the announced software and hardware from the conference.

"Right, let's see what Sega and Nintendo are coming out with", he said as he clicked the first result that bought them to the E3 website.

As they browsed the screen and the different articles, Alvin rubbed his chin, "You know I've not considered ever getting a console before, but the games look pretty good".

"Me neither to be honest, but they intrigue me".

Marvin clicked on Nintendo and images of a red binocular like device popped up with 'Virtual Boy' at the top.

"Virtual Boy, well this is meant to be virtual reality, hmm really? The device only looks like it supports two colours, red and black. Wow this is the future of video games? Pass", said Alvin shaking his head.

"Don't dismiss gaming as a whole, this is one console, Nintendo still have the SNES though I'd rather get the new stuff than hang onto old hardware where it'll be gone and obsolete".

"I won't, what's Sega doing?"

"Hmm let's see", said Marvin as he clicked Sega and popped up Sega Saturn.

"Ooh now this is what I'm talking about, this is the console that springs to mind", said Alvin.

"Hmm yeah I guess, I mean there is Sonic and that looks like a good looking platformer".

"It's announced that it'll be out on second of September this year at $399, hmm that's a bit pricey", said Alvin.

"They're launching with Virtua Fighter".

"Not convinced by Sega, look how blocky everything looks, how about Sony? You mentioned that they were getting into this side of things", said Alvin.

"Okay hopefully Sony blows you away then", said Marvin.

He clicked on Sony and the console popped on the screen, "Whoa, this looks nice, a nice light colour".

Alvin noticed a trailer for the PlayStation and he encouraged Marvin to play it, the video package showcased some of the launch titles for the console along with a price that's hundred dollars cheaper than the Saturn.

"Ooh ow, that's a sting, Sony waited until Sega dropped the announcement of the price then Sony undercut them by hundred dollars", said Marvin.

"It certainly looks great. The Saturn isn't that impressive, look it only has six games whereas Sony's bringing out more variety, what's 'Project Reality'?" said Alvin.

"Hmm", he said clicking it, "Project Reality is Nintendo's next console… wait a second, I thought the Virtual Boy was it… oh hang on, it's just filler, 'Project Reality' isn't the Virtual Boy".

"What they do that for?"

"No idea, but let's see what everyone's bringing out".

He skipped Nintendo's releases and filtered towards the PlayStation and the Saturn. They saw all the exclusives that Sony were coming out with and decided that this was their path to take, provided that their parents felt the same way.

It was about two weeks until the first day of school, the preparation of school was on everyone's agenda. The summer always came with a back to school feel where everybody changes some aspect of their appearance and this summer wasn't any different. Claire took her boys to the mall to buy their school supplies. Alvin was measured for waist diameter to ensure that his new pants fit comfortably over his diapers. Theodore was given this option too, but he requested that he get treated as normal and had his Mom buy him normal size pants for normal underwear. Simon raised an eyebrow at how his brother was meant to get cosy with Max as a friend if he wasn't going to wear like him at school, but respected his decision, nonetheless. After the boys were bought clothes for the new term, they each had a set of required items to buy. Their mother went around the mall to the various stores to purchase the items for her boys. Their mother received a letter detailing the pre-requisites for starting middle school. This included a doctor's appointment, dentist appointment and a visit to the optician. She decided to get these done right away. Thankfully, these three visits weren't taxing on time and for each, he was given a clean bill of health apart from his bladder that's continued to be non-compliant. He received a doctor's note to waive off any misconceptions over his condition. The boys were taken to the barbers for a long overdue haircut.

The next day was orientation for Alvin to get accustomed to his new school. This was also the time where he should register for classes. He was put into a disposable diaper for the day.

"Am I expected to wear disposables for school?"

"Well, your pants won't fit over your cloth ones so it's your only option".

"Fair enough".

He had forgotten how noisy the disposables sounded underneath his shorts as they crinkled when he walked. He approached a large group of kids and their parents with some hesitancy as they lined up in the school's lobby and lined up outside the door. He saw Marvin and Max standing ahead of him in the line. While waiting, he went up to Marvin to chat. Hr could tell that they both had cloth diapers on underneath their shorts as he could see them bulging through their shorts.

"Are you taking the tour afterwards?" Marvin asked him.

"Tour?"

"Yeah, every few minutes they take people in groups and show them around the school".

"Sure, if my Mom says it's okay".

By now, Marvin had reached the front of the line to register, he went back to his family and let his friend register for now. As he looked at the classes list, the mandatory class included P.E. He hadn't considered the prospect of having to be in a changing room full of Middle school boys and not get picked on for wearing diapers. He wondered how he was ever going to get around this one. Alvin whispered to his mother of his concerns. He had to stand on his toes to reach her ear. He hadn't realised that doing so, his hoodie rode up and exposed his diaper an inch above his shorts. A girl standing in line behind him saw his diaper and whispered to her little brother who was stood with her.

"There, now are you convinced that you aren't the only one?"

"Don't say that, Judy!" he whined.

"Well, then stop whining about being the only kid your age who wears…"

"Judy, please!" her mother stopped her.

Alvin's ears pricked an interest as he overheard the conversation behind him. He pulled his hoodie down to cover himself.

"Maybe they were showing in the rear", Alvin quietly told Simon.

"Maybe you just need some bugger shorts", said Simon.

Meanwhile, Alvin's mother asked the lady at the desk about Alvin's 'special needs', the euphemism for 'wears diapers'. Alvin was given a sheet to sign so that his teachers would know of his condition and therefore allow him to leave class at any time when necessary. Another sheet was given to Alvin which explained how the school handled such 'special needs'. The sheet explained that all the other students in each grade in the school who wore diapers would be placed in the same P.E. class together and would also be given their own lockers that was separated from the other students' lockers. It also explained how these students were 'exempt' and therefore allowed to leave class for diaper changes as needed. A special laminated hall pass was attached with Alvin's student number written on it, but not his name. In addition, the school encouraged students who wear diapers to change in the nurse's office where a private room was provided for this purpose. Reading this calmed all his fears about the school's handling of his situation. It was no surprise to Alvin that Marvin also had the same sheet and the 'exempt' pass. While waiting for more kids to join the tour group, they compared their class schedules. As expected, they both had the same P.E. class and it was the last class of the day which they both appreciated. They also got the same Math class with each other, right before P.E. and after lunch so Alvin and Marvin expected to spend nearly the last half of the school day together.

Claire and her two sons stayed behind and waited for Alvin to go through the tour. They waited with Rita and Heidi while her boys went with Alvin on the tour. The tour lasted only a few minutes. They went through the building, large in comparison to the elementary school. The hallway formed a square 'C' shape. At one end was the library, in the middle was the auditorium, band and choir rooms and on the other end was the cafeteria and gymnasium. Along with the gymnasium were the locker rooms. The locker rooms were marked 'special' and blank on top of the doors, Alvin and Marvin walked inside to peek around, wondering if they'd be comfortable with changing in here in front of other boys who wore diapers. They wondered if anything they would be the only ones in the locker room from their gym class. The location of the restrooms and the nurse's office had also been pointed out, the latter of which was of importance to Alvin and Marvin. The former for when they were sick with a stomach bug. Having worn his diaper wet for a couple hours, Alvin had also messed his diaper just as he was coming down from the upstairs towards the end of the school tour. He felt the mess bouncing up and down in the back and he hoped that the kids around him wouldn't smell him. The same girl and her little brother who had been standing in line behind Alvin were also in the same group for the school tour.

"Bobby, did you fart?" the girl asked her brother.

"No!" he denied.

Alvin stopped and let the girl and her brother go through, the girl looked familiar and he wanted to see if her brother was indeed wearing diapers.

"Mom, I think Bobby farted", the girl told her mom.

The boy cringed with embarrassment. It was quite obvious to him as well as Marvin that 'fart' was a euphemism that the girl used for indicating that her brother had soiled his diaper. Alvin and Marvin both could see that his shorts bulged rather prominently and was more heavily diapered than them. The mother didn't seem to be too phased by this remark from her daughter.

"Okay, Judy, I'll check him when we get to the car".

"Looks like he's on our side", said Marvin.

"Wait, you know who that is?"

"Who?"

"That girl we saw earlier this summer, down by the store, when we were riding bikes, remember?"

"Oh yeah, what was her name? she said she'd e-mail me, but she never did".

Marvin ran up to the girl to catch her before she and her brother went out the door. Her mother and brother had already left the building.

"Hi", Marvin said to her, startling her.

"Oh hi, wait you look familiar, I know I saw you not too long ago".

"I believe you saw us out riding our bikes that night at the store".

"Oh yeah! You're uh, Martin, right?"

"Close, it's Marvin, people call me Martin sometimes, I'm used to it and you're Judy, right?"

"Yeah, that's me. I was meant to e-mail you… I lost your e-mail address otherwise I would've".

"I couldn't help, but notice what you were saying to your brother".

"I can see you're wearing them now".

"I have to be, same goes for Max here".

Judy did a quick glance around her and only saw Alvin and Marvin's brother present, "Okay, my brother is the same way now, remember how I was saying that we should put my brother in…" she went closer to Marvin and whispered, "diapers?"

"Yeah, of course, I remember anything that has to do with you-know-what".

"I appreciate you being sensitive, let's go more privately to talk about this", she said as they left the building and away from the crowd.

"So how did it happen?"

"Well, at the beginning of summer, we were on holiday in Florida and while we were at Disney Resort, he was being difficult and been whiny", she started.

"So basically, regressing somewhat?"

"Yeah, we both thought it was just because it was warm and he was overly exhausted, but over the course of the trip, he just kept pushing my mom's buttons. She figured she just ignore it and it'll correct itself. Turned out to be his plan all along".

"I'm sorry, I don't know how this possibly put him in diapers", he told her.

"Just getting to it, like I said, it was his plan all along, we ignored it for a couple of days, he didn't like that so he kinda reduced his restroom breaks to just to go number one in the restrooms, we didn't think anything of it at the time, but the whole time we were going around the park, the next few days, he was fidgety and standing awkwardly".

"Withholding, hmm this sounds very deliberate".

"Indeed, so when the opportunity arose, whilst we were busy eating lunch, he stood behind us and silently farted, we didn't know he did because he only did a small one and when we went back to our hotel room, he made sure he was alone and went in his pants. So, this carried on throughout the trip, just when we thought he got over it. When we returned home, he went back to normal, we couldn't work it out, we had to wash his clothes there at the hotel and tipped the staff handsomely for doing such a task, fair play to them".

"That's hardly fair on the staff, but I guess the tip helped".

"We thought that too and we decided if he was to continue to misbehave with this then we would give massive tips to the cleaning staff. Surprised they did it to be honest with all the health codes nowadays, we left a glowing review on their hotel which the manager replied to thanking the staff for going well beyond their call of duty to make the stay as frictionless as possible, she also put an apology to the staff who had to do the extra laundry".

"Okay, so this resulted in him getting in them?"

"We put him on probation since he'd stopped when we got home, but the next time he did misbehave he would be in them".

"When did that happen?"

"The same week actually, didn't take long, we were sitting at the table for dinner and he was squirming like he needed the restroom and we were just sitting there eating when we finished, suddenly there was this loud rumble against a chair, as he went in his pants. It was fairly noticeable in the air with the odour. He was sent upstairs to clean up and Mom put him in diapers for the rest of the summer and grounded him for the entire summer and if he messes up again, he'll be in them for good, school and all".

"Wow, damn".

"Yeah well, he's in them now so, there you go, a baby once again".

"Alvin, we need to go now", his mother said as she came up to him.

"Okay, I gotta go now, see you later, Marvin, Max. Nice seeing you again, Judy", Alvin said as he followed his brothers and his mother.

"Judy, we're waiting", her mother called from the car.

"Sorry, Mom", she called back, "I gotta run".

"Here's the URL to my website when you get chance", said Marvin as he scribbled it on a piece of paper out of his pocket.

"Thanks, I'll try and perhaps I could get the e-mail from there, but I need to get going", she said as she took off to the car.

Marvin caught on from the conversation with her mother that her brother was clean, so it had to have been one of them that confused her into thinking her brother pooped.

"Of course, he wouldn't do it in public… but would he do it at school if he messed up once more", he thought to himself.

"Hey, Marvin, we're waiting on you, we need to get going", said Rita from the car.

"Oops, sorry Mommy".

"That's okay, we still have an hour until your hair appointments, let's go eat".

Everyone piled into the car and took off for McDonald's. Alvin asked his mother if they could follow them to eat with them, she nodded and followed them.

When they got to McDonald's, the four got out of their car and Marvin and his family looked over surprised that Alvin was there with them in the car park. He chuckled as he was unstrapped and got out.

"Wow, small world, didn't think we'd bump into you guys so soon", said Marvin with a grin.

"No, we didn't, did you follow us here or something?" asked Heidi jokingly.

"Well blame Alvin, he suggested we go too for lunch", replied Claire with a chuckle.

They went inside and Heidi took the boys into the baby changing room to change their diapers, despite the fact they felt that they could carry on wearing the same ones until they got home.

"Now, now boys, I know what you're thinking, but I'm thinking of the other customers, I don't think they would appreciate two dirty butts in close proximity when they're eating", said Heidi as she began to take Max's overalls off.

"Why can we get away with it in Chuck E Cheese and not here?" asked Max.

"Well the booths are a lot closer to each other therefore it's easier to offend people with the odour of a soiled diaper whereas at Chuck E Cheese, at least it can be blamed on a toddler", she replied as she completed the change and attached the overall buckles and dismissed him.

"It can happen here too though", said Marvin.

"Hmm no, not really unless we're sitting amongst other families with young kids, I think it'll be obvious who soiled".

"Aww okay".

"Look, we did this all the time when you were little and growing up, so I know what I'm on about, besides I want to keep your dignity too by not leaving you guys stinky", said Heidi as she performed the change on Marvin.

After not too long, Marvin and Max were sent back out in clean diapers while Heidi washed her hands thoroughly. They sat at a booth and their mother ordered Happy Meals for the boys, Big Macs for Heidi and herself. Alvin and his brothers sat in a booth too and Simon discretely checked Alvin's diaper and decided to take him to get changed when their mother came to sit down. Theodore went to the restroom to which Max found odd.

"Hey Marvin, Theodore just went in the restroom and not the changing facility, does that mean he's not wearing you know?"

"It would appear so, yes".

"Huh, odd".

"Are you making girlfriends now that you're in middle school?" Heidi asked Marvin in a lightly joking sort of way.

Marvin sat embarrassed, "Well… uh yeah I am, as a matter of fact. Her name's Judy, I was talking to her because her brother wears diapers. So, I gave her my website. Who knows, she may see the diapers you make and get her brother some".

"Speaking of which, I need to stop by a warehouse that sells wholesale fabric for Heidi's diaper-making business. The other stores just can't keep it in stock", said Rita.

"Are you making that many diapers now, Heidi?" asked Marvin.

"Oh yeah, Mom's gonna start handling all the mailing and bookkeeping and stuff. She'll even make some of the diapers while I go to school".

"Wait, don't you still have to go to work?" Marvin asked his mother.

"Well, I suppose this is as good of a time as any to tell you kids about our plans for the next chapter in our lives", their mother began. "I'm going to work full-time at home and help expand Heidi's diaper-making business. My last day at the office is this Friday".

"Does Daddy know?"

"Of course he does, in fact, he suggested it after he figured out how much more we could be making and he's always dreamed about one of us running a home-based business anyway".

During lunch, Marvin, Max and Heidi continued to discuss the upcoming plans for the diaper business. A separate e-mail account was created just for orders as well as a post office box. Rita had consulted with one of Roger's colleagues from work to help set things up. The business would formally be known as "Deidis by Heidi".

"Why not 'Heidi's Deidis?" Marvin suggested.

"We were gonna go with that, but then I realised that this made it sound like I wear them if we called it that. Oh, and we even came up with a cute slogan".

"What is it?"

"Brother tested, sister approved".

"We will discuss other ventures with you boys when we're somewhere more private, so people don't get the wrong impression", said Heidi giving the boys a knowing look.

"Ah, right got you".

They spent the rest of the afternoon taking care of their remaining errands, including haircuts for the boys and Heidi, plus purchasing some mailing supplies and dozens of yards of material for making diapers.

The long awaited first day of middle school had finally arrived and Alvin felt especially nervous about going to his new school. Simon and Theodore wished him well on his first day at Littlewood Middle School, the only saving grace for Alvin was there was no uniform to fit over his diapers otherwise it would be a disaster waiting to happen.

"Okay, obviously this is a new term, new school, new experiences, the school nurse is there to help you out at school should you need a change. Man it's going to feel weird seeing you come back with the school's textbooks and studying outside of class as well as at school, remember to do your best and you'll be fine to go to seventh grade. I know and recognise that this school year will be different without your brothers, but you'll have Marvin and Ryan".

"Yeah I know, Mommy, I even made up with Carl and Mitchell, but I dunno if Mitchell will want to wear at school", said Alvin.

"I'm sure they'll still hang out with you even if Mitchell doesn't wear them. Don't worry about not knowing about the schoolwork, okay, I am a fast learner and I can lend a paw if you need it, bro", said Simon.

"Thanks Simon, Mommy, have you got my diapers ready in the book bag?"

"Right here, Alvin, I know you're probably nervous about how the kids will treat you, if they discover that you wear diapers, but you know to grab a teacher's attention should it happen, right?"

"Yeah Mommy, I will tell a teacher if somebody bugs me".

"That's my sensible boy", said Claire smiling and ruffling his hair.

"Now Alvin, we obviously don't catch our bus as early as you do so are you going to be alright at the bus stop on your own?" asked Simon.

"Of course, don't worry bro, I got it covered".

"Good to hear, I'm so proud of you going into sixth grade, classes are bound to be challenging though".

"It's okay Simon, you can help if I need it, after reading about it of course".

Simon nodded, "Right, let's get some food into you, can't go on your first day with an empty tummy".

While he was having breakfast, he opted to feed himself and he looked out of the dining room window and watched across from his house to the bus stop where he will be making the walk towards for his bus. He chewed his toast slowly and wondered what the kids will think of him walking to the bus stop and waiting with two bags, one empty ready for his books apart from a notepad and stationery and one filled with his supply of diapers. After finishing his breakfast, he brushed his teeth and made one last check for cleanliness, he picked up his bags and his family wished him a good first day as he stepped out of the house. He exhaled very softly as he stood on the doorstep of his house with the two bags, bringing more courage, he made his way towards the bus stop where a few middle school students stood waiting for the same bus. He hoped that nobody would notice or care that he had an extra bag with him despite having no books issued to him yet. He had no Marvin to mingle with, so he just stood on the corner and set his bag down on the ground. A kid that he knew shuffled his way next to him and waited with him. Finding this unusual considering in elementary school this would have never occurred, he was sceptical of his intentions. He just looked down at his book bag where he set it down.

"Did they give you your books already?" the kid asked Alvin.

Alvin was hesitant to answer, he knew that this year would be a challenge right from the start. Not to appear rude and ignorant, he looked at the bag too and responded, "No, why?"

"What do you have that bag for?"

"It just has some of my stuff in it", he replied sounding annoyed at the prying nature of the kid's questions.

The kid backed off and said nothing more. Later, two girls who were most likely seventh graders joined Alvin and the other kids at the bus stop. Another boy then showed up. Alvin recognised him, but hadn't seen him since fifth grade.

After the bus arrived, the kids filed on and Alvin got on last, his diaper crinkled as he step on the bus and made his way to an empty two seater, hoping that maybe someone he liked would board the bus on the way to school so he at least had someone decent to talk to. The bus seemed to have major balance problems as it bounces on the bumps on the road making his bag move around. It was making the diapers crinkle inside. On one particular bump, it made the bag fall into the gangway and he went to retrieve it, he felt the bag slip loose on the zips and three diapers slid out and laying on the gangway with the white sharply contrasting the black floor. He mentally cursed in his head as he quickly and efficiently grabbed the diapers and stuffed them into his bag and zipped it up again. He thought he got away with it, but unfortunately he looked over and saw that the girls in front of him looked round as he made the save of his small reputation. They gave him a strange stare and looked back to the front and he could hear the word 'diapers' in their conversation afterwards.

"Oh great, I blew my cover way too early, now at least two kids know, great", he mentally punished himself.

Three stops later, the bus arrived at where Marvin had been waiting to board. When Marvin got to Alvin's seat, he picked up his bag and set it on his lap so that Marvin could sit with him. He also had his book bag full of his supply of diapers.

"Is your bag zipped up?

"Yeah, it is, why?" Marvin answered.

"I'll explain it when we get to school".

The bus ride to school was longer now than what it had been when they were at elementary school. The journey to the middle school was over three miles away. The bus had made more stops and picked up more kids, who nearly filled the bus by the time it got to the school. Alvin and Marvin stepped off the bus and walked towards the building. Alvin told him about the episode involving his unzipped book bag on the bus when he had the chance to get away from the throngs of kids filing into the school. The first period didn't start for a small time, so they made their way straight to the nurse's office and handed in their signed slips to confirm their medical needs. They were then directed by the nurse to a small room much like the room in which they had their diapers changed at elementary school. Within the room was a chest of drawers storing the supplies that other kids had bought along that morning. Half the boxes were already occupied with diapers.

"Well, even in middle school, we're not the only ones", said Marvin as he eyed two other boys handing in their slips. "Well, according to our schedules, we have just about enough time to occupy our lockers then it's off to our first classes".

They met at their lockers as they took enough stuff with them to their classes and locked their lockers again. They arranged to meet at the cafeteria at lunchtime. They then heard the warning bell for class, and they split off to their classes before the tardy bell.

Back at elementary school, Max was now alone without his older brother for the first time. Simon and Theodore were there though, but without Alvin, he went around the school before class. Simon and he had the same teacher and he sat with some male students that he occasionally talked to, but never to the point of friendship.

"Okay, class, welcome to Fifth Grade, I hope you all had a great summer break and are raring to go for the new school year, I am Mrs Fleming", said Mrs Fleming. "Right, onto the topics we're exploring this year…" she rattled through the curriculum as she wrote on the board.

Max sat with his hand under his chin and elbow on the desk as he thought about how lonely he actually is. Simon looked over to him for a moment and saw the distain on his face as he listened to the teacher. Max saw this and gave a smile, but a saddened smile and visibly sighed.

"Okay class, now that we've gone over the curriculum for this year in brief, we will tackle this over the year, but for now, I would like you all to write about your summer holiday".

Max hitched a breath as he immediately thought of the time at the cabin from when he was kidnapped by C.R.I.B. and put through horrific treatment. He shuddered and tried to seem unnerved by it. He shook his head, quickly suppressing the memory, "no, only happy stuff, exciting stuff, there's enough there", he thought.

"You may begin and use up the rest of the time in this period to complete this task".

Max opened his new notebook, fresh out of the stationary shop and began working on planning what he would write about. No matter how much he wanted to suppress the memory of the cabin, he couldn't help, but put it down in his plan.

"Stupid, stupid, why can't I just forget what happened in that compound?" he thought as he looked at the topic on the paper.

He torn out the page and had it next to his pad for reference and he began writing:

'My summer at the cabin at Silver Shores Resort

In the middle of summer, my family and two friends went to the cabin, it was a boys-only holiday, we had lots of fun. There was so much to do there, from swimming in the pool to playing a game of pool in the Lodge to going fishing. There was also an arcade there too, all new for the summer. This seemed so perfect, weather was awesome, very warm, nothing could have tainted this. Oh, how I wished that was the case'.

He looked around at the other students working on their own summers, he wondered if what he was writing was appropriate, but the teacher did say to write what they got up to, with a shrug, he continued to write.

'It was a Saturday and my dad got us all up early to go fishing at his favourite spot, we had hot chocolate and he had a coffee. Once this was done, we set off for breakfast and we played pool while it was being made. After breakfast, we went back in my dad's van and went to the spot to fish. This was enjoyable, we caught many fish over the day, we stayed hydrated with cool cans of soda and we had sandwiches for lunch. At about mid-afternoon, I wanted to go explore the caves and the wilderness, my dad told us to stay out there for an hour and not go far. We agreed as my brother, our friend and I went off up the path. While out there, we walked until our friend got a bit hot and needed to rest. I was still adamant to go further against my brothers' orders. In hindsight, I should've listened to him, maybe the thing that happened to us wouldn't have happened. We searched for a drink of water and we arrived to a compound of some kind and it was wrapped in fencing with barb-wire at the top and looked derelict, what was going on within there was nothing you wanted to experience in a hurry.

Against our better judgement, we managed to get in and we knocked on their heavy metal door. There was a sound of bolt locks sliding aggressively with force as it rang with vibration, we stood there in fear as the door opened revealing a woman in normal clothes. Her demeanour though was a sinister character that made anyone new uncomfortable. When we requested a drink, we were informed that we didn't deserve a drink after supposedly escaping before. We had no idea what they were talking about, but this only made things worse. We were escorted and threatened with a paddling if we disobeyed and they shackled us in a shed that smelt awful'.

He couldn't get the inside of the shed out of his forefront and the images flashed through his head and it started to hurt. He sighed and took a few deep breaths before continuing the assignment.

'The shed we were shackled in was dark and dingy, there very little ventilation going through the shed. The air was thick with dirty diapers, both faecal and urine that had gone long periods without changing, there were others in there, all chained up and held captive in diapers. It was horrible, we were chained up too into our cribs and heavily dosed with medicine to make us eliminate more voluminously. They gagged us with cloth so we couldn't call out for help, but this would've just resulted in punishment by one of their members anyway.

After six hours of lying in wet and soiled diapers, we were busted out by a former member of the group and my dad and our two friends who escaped to fetched him. I couldn't have thanked the girl enough. I won't forget this experience in a hurry, that's for sure.

The after-effects, I'll admit are still prevalent in my mind, whenever I see a shed I think of that place. Whenever I read about corporal punishment, I think of that place. I still am apprehensive about the resort. This experience has tainted my enjoyment of my summer and I don't really know how to express my issues with it'.

He wrote some other events before finishing. He wrote several pages back to back of his summer, while others only manage a couple of sides of A4.

"Okay class, I think we can call time on this assignment, please hand them to me for grading and you'll get them back as soon as they're ready".

Max handed her his work, he exhaled heavily, and she smiled at the effort that he put into it before collecting the other ones and she put them on her desk. He sat tapping on his notepad anxiously waiting on the bell to dismiss them for recess, not that he would know what to do with himself without Alvin or Marvin to keep him company. He did have Simon and Theodore though, but he knew that there was no way Simon would abandon his own group just for sympathy towards him and hang out with him instead. He thought back to his worries in the summer when it became apparent that he'd be on his own and the advice his brother gave him.

'You'll have Theodore there, you should be okay with him, I'm sure he would play with you'.

He closed his eyes as he remembered this line and nodded to himself, "Okay, bro I will try to get Theodore to hang out with me", he thought.

He heard the bell and waited for Mrs Fleming to dismiss them for recess, she stood up and dismissed them. Max sighed and went towards the playground, the playground was inundated with many cliques and he stood on his own, feeling the loneliness set in.

"There's no way others will play with me if I am detected to be wearing diapers", he muttered to himself, he walked over to the swing-set and sat in one of the many vacant seats.

He rocked on his heels as he thought of Theodore, "surely he won't mind playing with me though".

He spotted Theodore sat on the see-saw on his own and he saw that he visibly sighed too, he walked over and climbed on the other side raising Theodore to level.

"Hey Theodore, you don't mind if I play on the see-saw with you, do you?"

"No, not at all, it's not very fun by yourself".

After a few minutes, they hopped off and they sat on the grass.

"So, Theodore, without Alvin and Marvin, I'm kinda lonely so… I want to develop a friendship with you, if you want to".

"I'd like that too, I don't have many close friends and I don't mind that you of course wear 'you-know-what', which by the way are showing".

"Oh jeez", he muttered as he pulled down his shirt to cover them, blushing. "You're not wearing them, are you?"

"I can't face it by choice, if I were in them full time like you are then I would get over it, but since I don't technically need them, I don't think I can go through with that one".

"Fair enough, I hope this doesn't deter you though".

"Oh, definitely not, I will still wear them at home and over your house, just not at school".

At this time, Simon saw Theodore and Max sitting on the grass chatting and he just smiled at the sight. After recess, it was class and Theodore and Max went their separate ways again. In the middle of class, he got up and left the room.

Alvin went through his classes, starting with Social Studies, one of his weakest classes from a lack of interest in history. He sat in Social Studies on his own despite sitting next to someone, he felt alone in the class, while his teacher, Mr Rosales rambling on about their schedule of the curriculum, not that it was any interest to him, but he did need to perform to the best of his ability. He sat quietly and listened to the droning voice.

The bell rang for the next class, something that was alien to him since he had been used to recess only in Middle school there is no recess as the state decided that they're too old for running around and burning energy. A fact that never made sense to him. His next class was Art, he wandered into the big art room with tables strewn in various locations in the classroom. Mr Carrigan, the only art teacher at the school was busy setting up paints and pastels for the class to use. The art teacher wasn't wearing a suit like Mr Rosales was, but a colourful shirt and black jeans, probably the most smart-casually dressed teacher he's seen so far.

"Right sixth graders, I am Mr Carrigan and I'll be your art teacher for this year".

"You're the only art teacher, who else would it be?" asked a cocky kid in one end of the classroom.

"Alright smart alack, I am aware that I am the only art teacher at the school, let's see if we can turn that into art, using the paints and pastels around the classroom to create a piece that reflects your summer".

Alvin grinned at the remark from his teacher, he was starting to like this class which in the past wasn't a favourite of his. A few minutes later, the door of the classroom opened, and he looked at that direction and saw a slender, beautiful looking female chipmunk dressed in a pink dress and purple leggings. He couldn't believe his eyes, "well that's new", he thought.

"Sorry I'm late, I'm still looking for the classrooms".

"That's okay, uh didn't catch your name", said Mr Carrigan.

"Oh, it's Brittany, Brittany Miller", replied the chipette.

"Right, Miss Miller, I will let you off this once since it is the first day of school, but be sure to be on time in future, alright".

"Okay", said Brittany.

"Right, to roll call", said Mr Carrigan.

After the roll call, he set up the paper and art supplies, "Okay, I'm not going to tell you what to use, I'm just going to let you guys decide the direction you want your summer summary pieces to take".

As the students grabbed a piece of paper and some colours, they went back to their tables and started working. Alvin walked around looking at the new chipette that came in and was puzzled by her presence since he never saw her at the pre-term days and not at elementary school either. He wondered if there were more like her at school or in elementary school with his brothers.

Theodore went back to class after recess and sat in his usual seat, he was thankful that their classrooms don't change throughout the day. Miss Cartwright stood at the front after everyone filed in and she looked over at a seemingly empty doorway. He thought, "I don't see anyone, why is she looking over there?"

"Class, we have a late entrant to our class, I'd like to introduce Eleanor Miller, she's new and I hope you all make her feel welcome, come on in Eleanor", said Miss Cartwright.

A blonde haired chipette walked in with a green dress, white socks and black shoes, she immediately caught Theodore's eyes.

"Whoa, okay, I'd like to know her", said Theodore to himself.

She wandered to the only empty desk in the classroom and was near him, he looked at her with wandering eyes.

He hopped from his seat, "Hi, I'm Theodore".

"Hello Theodore, I'm Eleanor, you can call me Ellie if you want though".

"Okay, Ellie, I'll show you around today", he offered.

"Uh… sure okay Theodore".

Simon sat in Mrs Fleming's class and noticed she wasn't in the classroom yet, "Hmm what's holding up Mrs Fleming?"

"Sorry for my tardiness class, I just had to be briefed on someone".

"Someone? Doesn't she mean something?" he thought.

"I would like to introduce a new student who will be joining us from this period onwards, her name is Jeanette Miller and she just got enrolled so be sure to make her feel welcome, okay".

"A new student? Ah excellent, I would like to make her feel wel…" Simon started then halted at the sight of a fairly tall chipette dressed in a purple jumper and a skirt and jeans beneath. "Okay then, um… didn't quite anticipate that at all, but I'm easy", Simon said as he went up to her.

"Hello, my name's Simon and I heard you're Jeanette".

"Yeah… uh I like your glasses", said Jeanette awkwardly.

"Oh, uh thanks", said Simon as they walked to their desks, they sat next to each other. "You know, I think we should be partners in some assignments".

"I'd like that", said Jeanette as she smiled weakly.

Meanwhile, in Alvin's art class, he started to draw some generic stuff like baseball and bike-riding and deliberately shying away from the diapers as he didn't want this to be on show to the governing body of the school district when assessing students. He wanted to get better at his drawing and made sure it wasn't as scribbly as his toddler mind-set drawings he does at home. Mr Carrigan went around the classroom, conversing with students, finding out their names, what they did over the summer and so forth. It was a lot more interaction than what Mr Rosales gave. It seems like he's a people person. Brittany sat with some of the other girls, of whom seem uncomfortable about her being with them. Alvin looked over to her and she looked down at her empty paper, he looked bemused, "Why wasn't she drawing or painting her summer?" he thought. He went over to her and invited her to sit with him, the girls she was with looked at Alvin and had a hunch he had something to hide, but kept quiet. Carl was also in the class.

While at the table, he stood with her at a distance, he hoped that she wouldn't pick up the scent of the disposable diaper under his jeans though they did crinkle. Still, she just stood with the paints untouched and pastels unused, curiously he looked up, "I'm Alvin, by the way".

"You know me as Brittany".

"Yeah, how come you aren't drawing anything?"

"Can't think of anything".

"Surely you did something in the summer, Brittany".

"Not really, um… my summer was below average than usual".

He raised an eyebrow, "Really, what do you do for fun?"

"I dunno, put on make-up, do my hair, go to the mall".

"Ah ha, you could draw and paint stuff from the mall, perhaps some make-up and hairstyles", he suggested.

"Oh… now I feel dumb, of course I could do that, thanks Alvin".

She started working quickly to make up lost time from thinking of stuff. She looked over at his piece and raised her eyebrow at what he was drawing. "Uh Alvin, what are you drawing?"

"Oh, this is what I did over the summer".

"Ah I see, so you rode bikes with two other boys… what are they wearing?"

His mind panicked, "Uh oh, why did I draw them like that?" he thought as he blushed.

"Uh n-nothing, just white shorts, I forgot to draw them to their knees", he replied nervously.

"Oh, ok then", she chuckled. "For a moment there I thought you drew two boys wearing cloth diapers".

"No, no they're white shorts", he clarified as he drew down to their knees. "That was close", he muttered to himself. "Thankfully she doesn't know I've wet my diaper a little already, but it's absorbent so it's fine".

He looked over and saw she had creatively transformed her piece with various hairstyling tools and make-up with dresses as well. "Wow that looks amazing Brittany".

"Thanks Alvin".

Alvin looked at Carl's piece and he looked over, "Sorry I've been silent, I'm just nervous around girls".

"No problem, what did you draw?"

"I sort of drawn my family during the meeting at the park and Chuck E Cheese where we sorted stuff out and bike-riding".

"Does the school know of your own 'special needs' as well?"

"Yeah, I have the same pass as you do so I'm in the same PE class as you".

"Ah cool at least I know at least two other people".

"Don't forget Ryan, Alvin".

"Oh yeah, I wonder what class he's in".

"I think he said he'd be in Computing".

"Oh awesome, I have that next, I wonder what it is".

"Beats me, I don't know".

Mr Carrigan stood to the side of the room in front of his desk, "Okay class, stop what you're doing and put your pieces in the airer to dry and I'll grade them for next time, make sure you wash the paint pots and any brushes you have used, that is now your responsibility".

After washing the equipment and put it away, Mr Carrigan looked at the class before nodding his approval, "Thank you for doing that class, well it's time for your next class whatever you're all doing, enjoy your next class, class dismissed", he said before the bell rang for the next class.

"Well that was a fun class, so glad I chose it and I'm especially grateful to have a classmate that helps me sometimes", said Brittany.

"No problem Brittany", Alvin said as she walked away to her next class.

"Well, you certainly made her feel welcome, Alvin", said Carl.

"Yeah I guess I did".

"Anyway, class time, don't want to be late", said Carl as he strode to Geography.

Alvin went to Computing in the computer lab, upon entering, he spotted Ryan in the lab sat at a computer, he hadn't seen so many stations in one room before compared to the tiny lab where the class would have to share computers in elementary, they could go on their own. He went over to Ryan and sat next to him. Once everyone took their seats in front of a computer, the teacher, Mr Taylor walked in and stood near the board.

"Right, class, welcome to sixth grade Computing, now you're probably wondering, what is computing? Well, in this class, we'll explore the computer and get to know the software on the machines and how to use some of the software to create certain things and even learn how to create your own web server in order to create a website to run if you so desire, but keep it appropriate for school of course. In fact, some of these aspects will form the assessment for this class. I will guide you along the way and I know some of you might not have your own machines at home so please don't be afraid to ask any questions, so any questions before we start?" asked Mr Taylor.

One student raised his hand, Mr Taylor scanned the room and spotted him, "Okay uh…"

"Leonard", replied the boy.

"Ah right, I'll remember names in time, but for now we'll just use name tags on the desks, anyway, what's your query, Leonard?"

"How do we log in?"

The class groaned, "What?"

"Pardon me for interrupting, but we were told this at homeroom, you were meant to write it down", said Alvin.

"Ah, that explains it, no worries, I can manually look up anyone's username if they need it, but please write it down", said Mr Taylor. "What's your name?"

"Alvin Seville", he replied.

"Ah Alvin, that's a name I'll remember, you're excused for jumping in since your contribution was helpful, am I to deduce that you're the only one that didn't note it down, Leonard?"

"I guess so", he said sheepishly.

"Right, okay, before I sort you out with your username, I'll ask the rest of you to set up your passwords by logging in with your username and the password as simply the word 'password'", said Mr Taylor. "A dialogue box will prompt you to change your password, enter your password twice to complete the process and please try to remember it, but you can come see me in this room if you happen to forget your password and I will reset it back to password again for you to change it again".

Mr Taylor went over to Leonard and gave him his username to log in and he went back to the front and looked at the introductory lesson notes he planned. He looked at the class and saw they were all successful in logging in.

"Excellent, we're all set up, right, now a bit of admin before we go into the lessons of the computer. You all have a working directory to store all of your documents, I will show you how to organise them to prevent it looking cluttered. We have set it up so that other students don't have access to anyone's files for security reasons. You have probably started exploring the different programs on your machine, each of these have a particular job and some are suited for certain applications than others. For example, Excel is suited for presenting data and uses formulae and charts to present information whereas Word is suited for word processing and other literary applications, Internet Explorer allows you to search the Internet for many things. First of all, though let's all create a folder within your working directory".

Mr Taylor drew a monitor on the board and listed the steps neatly.

"Okay, go to My Documents on your Desktop and double left-click on the icon. When the window pops up, go to your username directory and double left-click this, this should open in the same window your workspace. Now, right-click on your mouse and release to avoid side effects, an option toolbar should appear. If you see this, go to 'New Folder' by hovering the cursor over it and left-click once and type something like 'MyNewFolder' and hit the enter key and it'll create a new folder. Not the most exciting thing in the world, but it's a start. Don't worry we'll get to the interesting stuff soon enough".

Throughout the class, they started creating spreadsheet files and basic calculation formulae within the program before the bell went for the next lesson. Alvin logged out of his machine and went to his next class which was Life Science. As he walked into the classroom, he saw Karen, the girl that he saw over the summer. He was embarrassed that this was his only encounter before this and it was when he was just in diapers. He plucked up the courage and approached her.

"Hello", said Alvin.

"Oh hi Alvin", she said to him before turning back to her friends.

Dejected by the brush off, he went to sit down and listen to Ms Kelly give the introductory lecture on their class assessments.

After Life Science was English and he was forewarned by Heidi that none of the English teachers were easy to get on with. In spite of this, he wanted to do his best not to give Mrs Reid any reason to dislike him, though a few students in his class have already got on her bad side. While in English, Alvin felt his stomach rumbling from hunger. He looked forward to lunch.

At lunchtime, Alvin and Marvin met at the cafeteria entrance like they had agreed upon. He also invited Ryan and Carl to join them there. Mitchell was also there with Marvin when Alvin arrived. They got into the lunch line and waited along with dozens of other kids to be served. Carl and Mitchell had their own lunches and had already sat down to eat. The food looked surprisingly good for a school cafeteria and it also offered selections that hadn't been available at their elementary school. Alvin, Marvin and Ryan then joined Carl and Mitchell. Ryan, Carl and Mitchell carried on a conversation of their own while the other two conversed with each other.

"So how are your classes?" Alvin asked Marvin.

"I hate my English teacher", he replied, having just been dismissed from her class. "Mrs Baker is such a bitch, she gave us a big homework assignment already".

"I don't like my English teacher, either, I think all English teachers are mean and grouchy for some reason".

"Heidi warned me about Mrs Baker and said she had her for English when she was here, she won't allow any talking or anything whatsoever. Then this one kid farted and of course this caused everyone to snigger and she yelled at us for that. Heidi barely passed her class too even though she usually gets A's and B's".

"How have we not been detected yet?" asked Alvin.

"Hmm well I guess we're lucky", replied Marvin. "Do you need to go somewhere?"

"Uh huh".

They went out of the cafeteria towards the nurse's office. They all went to the nurse's office where the nurse knew exactly what they needed, but to her surprise, they declined for her to do it and instead told her that they'll perform the changes themselves.

"I can only advise you boys, but I don't think it's a good idea for everyone to be in the changing room at the same time", said the nurse.

"What, don't you trust us with our diapers, or are you afraid we might do some inappropriate things in here?" asked Marvin raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, heaven's no, I'm not too worried about that, it's just unusual for many boys to be in the room together, well changing themselves that's all".

"Ah we can handle ourselves, we're used to it".

"Okay then, be swift because I may need to use this room for other students with the same needs".

"Okay no problem", said Marvin. "Well, at least she's attentive, but hey let's get changed promptly like she said".

Ryan had disappeared into the bathroom without the boys knowing and he used it for going the other way. His mother had taken him to the doctor who referred him to a urologist who ran some tests that baffled the urologist to find that his bladder was in fact weakening. It explained his constant accidents from Alvin's party onwards. His doctor advised for him to wear protection for his bladder, but to try to stave off weakening his bowel muscles as much as possible by void appropriately in a toilet. He walked out with his wet diaper and saw Marvin and Alvin's behinds after they cleaned themselves up. He instantly became aroused and he turned from them immediately in embarrassment that his sexual feelings caused him to become erect at the sight of boys. He didn't recall ever having the same reaction to girls, he put it to the back of his mind, but he became quieter as he shied away and placed his diaper in the diaper pail along with Alvin and Marvin's.

Neither Alvin nor Marvin were any good at diapering themselves, though Marvin had diapered Max on occasion. Alvin had very little experience handling diaper changes since he relied heavily on others to do it for him. The two boys decided that they needed the practice and changed each other, if he could sufficiently diaper his friend then doing it to himself in future wouldn't be a problem. In spite of his inexperience with diapering himself and others, he got Marvin's diaper on him tightly enough.

"Take it from someone with some experience with wearing diapers, if I say it's tight enough then I know it's tight enough".

"That's good, I didn't want anything embarrassing to happen to you if it weren't", said Alvin as he remembered when he failed to diaper himself tightly enough causing his to leak everywhere on his pants.

"Yeah, that wouldn't be good, but this is fine to me, good job".

"You done a pretty good job with me too", said Alvin as he pulled on his overalls covering his diaper.

"Your turn Ryan", said Marvin.

"O-okay", he said nervously getting on the table.

"Man, you cleaned up good, I don't need to do anything apart from diaper you", said Marvin inspecting him.

The diaper Ryan had covered him very well and though unintentionally, Marvin felt Ryan's hard on through the diaper.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Ryan, I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable", said Marvin realising his error of judgement.

"No, no it's okay, it's part of the diapering process".

"Okay", said Marvin as he breathed a sigh and continued to diaper him.

Carl and Mitchell were waiting outside, they had changed before them so didn't need a change yet. They were surprised when all three came out at the same time.

"Took you guys long enough", Carl remarked.

The boys then walked outside towards the playing field behind the school.

"What do you wanna do?" Marvin asked everyone. "They don't have playgrounds in middle school, that sucks".

Alvin shrugged and they stood around talking when another kid come up to the group and instantly recognised Mitchell.

"Ah Mitch, finally made it to middle school then, took you long enough… uh Mitch, who are these wussies that you're hanging out with now?" the kid asked him.

"They're my friends, Rick".

"These losers?" Rick asked as he pointed to Marvin, Alvin and Ryan. "Oh man, that's a good one", he started laughing. "I thought you were cool, Mitch, I thought you were cool. I thought of you as my friend, I could've got you popularity instantly when you eventually come up to middle school, but no, this is what another year at elementary lands you, bottom of the social hierarchy".

"Well, if being a bully is your idea of cool then I guess I'm not cool and acting like that won't make me your friend again".

"You know, Mitch, for someone who should be in the seventh grade now, but isn't, you're quite a wussie, too".

"I'd rather be a wussie than a bullying jackass like yourself".

"Really, let's see how tough your baby friends are!"

Alvin cringed when he heard Rick refer to him as a 'baby friend' of Mitchell's as if Rick somehow knew that they were wearing diapers.

"You know how to fight, kid?" Rick asked as he looked Alvin in the eye.

"N-no", he replied nervously.

"Well, let's find out. Let me do something to piss you off and see what you do".

"Leave me alone!"

"Let's see about giving you a wedgie", Rick said as he went after Alvin and pulled on the shirt under his overalls and reached for an elastic waistband, but instead, he grabbed a thick disposable diaper.

"What the hell?" Rick visually confused as he examined the material between his thumb and forefinger. "You're wearing a diaper!"

He pulled his hand out and became suspicious of the others, "I suppose your other friends wear them too, let's see them".

Marvin and Ryan backed away.

"You guys wear diapers too, or you'd let me look".

"Rick, leave them alone!" Mitch stepped in to defend them.

"What about your brother?"

"What about him?"

"Does he wear them too?"

"For medical reasons as with the others, yes".

"Mitchell! Why did you do that?!" Carl asked his brother.

"Oh my, this is too much, let's see four diaper wearers and a non-wearer".

"Rick, you know what, shove your opinion up your ass!" Carl lashed out.

"You son of a bitch!" Rick tackled him to the ground and struggled with him. The fight only lasted thirty seconds before a teacher saw the commotion and came running over to break up the fight.

"What the heck is going on?!" Mr Hanson barked.

"This boy was harassing me and my friends then started beating me up", said Carl.

"Is this right?" he asked the other boys who nodded. "Right, you five can go, my, my Rick we haven't even got to the afternoon yet and you've earned a trip to the principal's office", he said sternly as he took him to the principal.

The five-minute warning bell rang and the boys returned to their classes.

After sitting through the first day of the Math class in which Alvin and Marvin were both placed together, they headed for their last class of the day, P.E. They had long thought about the class, knowing what problems they might face by having to undress in front of other kids and letting their diapers be seen.

"Right, relax, we're not gonna ask anyone to change today because it's an orientation only lesson. I will just be giving a lecture about the stuff you'll be doing, showing you where everything is and you'll get your gym shorts and a shirt to wear for P.E.", said Mr Hanson. "Hold on, I remember you three", he said pointing to Alvin, Marvin and Ryan. "Don't worry about a thing, I'll go through everything so that you feel comfortable to do P.E.".

The class was split by gender, one teacher had one half and Mr Hanson had the boys. The class were told to sit in the gymnasium where they had a lecture on the activities they would be doing.

"Well, I'm sure you're wondering, how do you get exercise if there's no recess?"

The class nodded silently, "I've been wondering that too, between us, I think kids should continue to play sport like games to blow off some energy, but the district thinks differently…" he ranted before realising the class could hear it and paused, "eh hmm, anyway, the way we can help some of you to get involved in school life is through fixtures and other sporting activities outside of school. In this class though we will be doing specific sports and practicing drills that real players run through and if there's time we usually put it to practice in a game like scenario with two teams, well depending on the sport of course. So, from the next class onwards, I expect you all to arrive and get changed promptly and meet outside on the multi-sport area and start warming up, when I arrive down with the slow changers then we'll go into some drills. Our first sport will be soccer then after five weeks, we move onto football, in the Spring, we'll do cricket and to finish the year, athletics".

Alvin smiled as he thought of starting with soccer then football, two of his favourites, he could almost imagine being picked for his ability, but reality dawned on him that his agility is hampered by his diaper.

He turned to Marvin, "I like the sports that he just listed and I'd be great at them, but these will hamper me".

"Don't worry, Alvin", whispered Marvin.

"Now that I have given the rundown of the year's activities, I will take you through the different sports facilities and where you'll be changing", said Mr Hanson. "But first line up and receive a change of clothes to take home and bring back to your next class with me".

The class of boys lined up and Mr Hanson split the piles to the ones he knew on the register to have 'special needs' and called them last to receive a slightly bigger pair of shorts and a shirt.

"Right, now that you have your gym shorts and shirt, follow me to each part of the sports centre".

Mr Hanson took them through every facility available and explained the procedure to get into each part of the complex, most of them were extra-curricular and not on the syllabus. The students were then led to a room where a pile of shorts and shirts were assigned to each student. Alvin thought that this was really generous of the school to provide these for them and they were even given a gym bag each to store them in. The students were given a couple minutes to pack them away and to carry them to their lockers in the locker room.

"Right, lockers, you each were assigned a locker and a combination, please try not to forget the combination, but if you do then come see me and with a quick search on the register, I will use your date of birth as a line of security, all you need to do is recite it back to me correctly and I will remind you of your locker combination. Right, when I call you forward, I will give you a locker number and your combination".

Alvin, Marvin and Ryan were placed in a row of lockers that were designed for them and the other boys in the class who wore diapers. They were surprised when they approached the lockers that nine others were there. The two boys that Alvin and Marvin saw in the nurse's office were also in the class. They were next to Marvin in the row of lockers. As they were trying out their locker combinations, Marvin took the initiative and introduced himself to them.

"Hi", Marvin said as he looked at the one to his immediate right.

"Uh, hi", the other kid replied. Both he and the other boy barely looked old enough to pass for fifth graders, let alone sixth graders.

"I'm Marvin and this is my friend Alvin", Marvin said.

"I'm Ben and this is my brother Billy", the small, short boy said. "We're twins, not identical, though".

Marvin and Alvin hoped they would get to know them more. at this time, Mr Hanson called in the twelve boys for a private chat in the gymnasium.

"Okay, I need a private word with all of you, some people in the class won't understand your special needs and may harass you, if any of them do, no matter how little it may seem in their remarks, let me know, okay because I won't tolerate it from any of them. As for why you're placed in a separate locker area, well we place students with the same special needs such as yours to minimise harassment. This applies also to dressing down into your shorts and shirt, you will have this separate changing area to get changed in and you don't need to strip down in front of the others. If you need to take care of something, we have a little room across from your lockers to deal with your special need".

By the time, he was done with this, the other kids were shown their changing room, after this the day was over. Marvin and Alvin could finally go home. As each of them were given homework by their English teachers and some introductory exercises for Math, they went back to their own homes and would meet up later in the week instead.

Alvin and Marvin separated on the bus when it came to Marvin's stop, he waved to him. He sat on his own with his gym bag and his own bags. He felt his diaper on his overalls and it was puffed out a fair amount and it was very wet. He got to his stop and he got off and headed to his front door with his bags and he went in. He was greeted with his Mom who saw he had another bag with him.

"Ah there's my middle school boy, how was the first day of middle school?"

"Eh, it was alright actually, teachers were mostly good, not sure about my English teacher though".

"Ah I see and I see that you have another bag with you".

"Yeah, it's my gym bag and get this, they gave me the kit I need for the year", he said taking out the kit from the bag.

"Oh wow, I didn't need to spend a penny, what a generous school? So, got homework?"

"Yeah I have, just some introductory stuff for Math and a small report for English".

He went to his bedroom and looked at the diaper he was wearing and it was sagging a bit, but it didn't leak on him. A few minutes later, Simon, Steve and Theodore came through the front door.

"We're home!" yelled Theodore.

Claire chuckled at her son, "I can see that, had a good day at school?"

"Yeah, we had new kids in our class, female variety".

"Oh really, I didn't see any new kids at the registration".

"They were late enrollers apparently".

"Yeah, strangely enough, I had a new entrant too in my class".

"Mine too, well only Art, but still it was a late entrant as well", said Alvin.

"How strange?" said Simon. "They wouldn't be female chipmunks, would they?"

"All three, maybe, Brittany Miller?" said Alvin.

The other two gasped, "Eleanor Miller", said Theodore.

"Jeanette Miller, wow, sisters and they happened to be in each of our respective grades, my goodness what a development".

Steve had been in and out throughout the summer and didn't get to see Simon as much as he would have liked. He hadn't been over in a while.

"I see that your diaper is in serious need of a change", said Steve looking at Alvin's sodden diaper.

"Whoa man, Alvin, yeah that definitely needs changing, did you change at all today?" asked Simon.

"Yeah this morning before lunch".

"Ah, okay, come on diaper-butt let's get you changed, excuse me Steve".

Simon and Alvin went to his room and he laid on his changing table. Simon torn off the top tapes of the diaper and removed it, feeling the bulkiness of the material.

"Man, you really soaked this one, Alvin".

He wiped the diaper area with a wipe and applied some Drapolene before pinning on the usual six stack on him. He pulled on the plastic pants and dismissed him. Steve looked over and saw him waddling back into the living room in his diapers.

"You seem to like wearing thick diapers now", said Steve.

"Yeah, they feel good".

"Man, you really have come a long way, Alvin", Steve remarked. "Almost a year ago, you were so much different. You hardly even spoke to me and I thought this accident you go in on your bike was the end of you when I found out that you would be wearing diapers because of it. Now, here I am, seeing you in thick diapers and you seem to be enjoying it".

"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm kind of glad I had that accident. Don't get me wrong, it was a horrific accident, but I wouldn't have met Marvin, Max and Ryan had I not and I think I am better from it".

Alvin sat in front of the television and watched after school cartoons with Steve, Simon and Theodore. He looked over at his bag and thought about diving into his homework, but decided it could wait. Simon got up and went to the kitchen. He returned with two baby bottles of soda.

"Hmm I wonder if these two want to be given a nursing", said Simon.

Theodore looked up and saw that his brother was holding two bottles of soda, he allowed Simon to sit down and he crawled over and assumed the position of a baby being given a bottle. Alvin looked up at Steve who smiled and gestured for him to assume the same position. After they were finished with their bottles, the cartoons that they were watching were over. Simon reminded them that they shouldn't put off the homework.

"Speaking of homework, shall we get started on ours?" asked Steve.

"Yeah, we should all do ours, then it's done".

They each did their homework at the table together as a study group, Claire looked in on them from the kitchen with a small smile. She went back to doing some things around the house. Theodore thought of Max and how lonely he was at school.

"You know, I went to be with Max today, he was pretty bummed out", said Theodore.

"What was wrong?" asked Alvin.

"You and Alvin weren't there at his school anymore. He always was stuck with his brother at lunchtime and he told me that he didn't have any real close friends until he met you through his brother. I'm in fourth grade and he's in fifth, the other kids walked by us hanging together and they were making fun of Max because he couldn't find friends from his age group and told him that he hung out with babies, I don't know where they got that terminology from".

Alvin shook his head, "I hope they don't carry on like that, it may be harmless on the surface, but I can see it knock his confidence over time".

"I'll watch for any signs it's bothering him, then I'll let the teachers know".

"Great, thanks Theodore, I will certainly make Marvin aware too unless he has already been told".

"There has to be someone else who wears diapers that Max could hang out with too", said Alvin.

"Well, there was this one kid. He was on the teeter-totter with this one girl and he must have known her intentions because when he told her that he needed to get down, she wouldn't let him. He said he had to go to the restroom. She didn't let him down. I saw him get all fidgety then he acted nervous and embarrassed after I detected the odour. The girl let him down and laughed at him as he ran off crying", said Simon.

"Oh geez, poor kid", said Alvin. "I wish I could be there to comfort him, why did this girl do this to him?"

"I think she did this intentionally to prove a point, that he simply can't hold himself to get to the restroom on time".

"That's just so wrong", said Theodore.

"Totally agree with you", said Simon.

"So, he can't get to the restroom on time, hmm interesting and she figured this out how?"

"Well… I think he knows that he has issues because he wears his underwear in bulk and it shows up", replied Simon.

"That's so sad, no wonder I haven't seen him, he must be so embarrassed that he hides away", said Alvin.

"Well, what can we do?" asked Theodore.

Simon put his paw to his chin, "hmm, perhaps you and Max could coax him into opening up to you and not be judgmental about his condition, maybe he'll see that there are a couple good kids in the school".

"That's a good idea, Simon, poor kid", said Steve. "I will sure to not judge him either way".

"I suspect that he has something called Encopresis, which basically means functional constipation", said Alvin.

"How would that…" Steve started.

"Let me elaborate, I read about it in the library, in search for books on diapers and difficulty in potty training. It basically means that it's a physical manifestation of a mental problem with going number two. So, when the colon becomes encopretic, the nerves lose their sensory capability or something and the person basically loses the urge to go", Alvin started to explain.

Simon almost looked impressed, "Wow, Alvin, I didn't think you'd be in a position to memorise a condition like this".

"Well, I have read stuff on it, further to the encopretic colon, the stored poop has the water taken from it and becomes a blockage. This can become harder to release and as it backs up, the body then forces liquified poop around and through the blockage and hence the accidents and the child in unaware this is going on".

"What causes someone to do that?" asked Theodore.

"From what I read, Theo, it could be rushed potty training and the child feels resentful about the toilet so withholds. Another reason might be a painful motion then the child will be reserved in going again so will withhold to avoid it. Another reason might be a trauma in some way that makes the child respond in reaction to stimuli such as abusive treatment while potty training or as a result of accidents".

"Ah that sounds awful", said Theodore.

"You don't think something like that happened to this kid, do you Alvin?" asked Simon.

"Hard to tell, but I think if a kid has to use multiple pairs of underwear at school and the way the girl treated him and the resulting accident, points to nothing other than Encopresis, perhaps a doctor might be able to diagnose him".

"I'll be gentle with it and let him come out when he's ready", said Theodore.

"Yeah I would Theodore, he's probably shielded from the condition that he is too embarrassed by it to be out in the open", said Alvin. "Say Simon, you wouldn't know his name, would you?"

"Hmm, I think his name is… er… Jeffy, I believe. Maybe we can talk to him tomorrow, Max and Theodore can make themselves known to him".

Back at the Oppenheimer's house, Heidi and Marvin got home at the same time in spite the different buses. The minute he came in the door, he set his book bag down and took off his shorts. Heidi could see that her brothers' diaper was soaked rather well as it was bloated in the front and tinged in yellow.

"It looks like you want me to change your diaper first thing", she said.

He waddled to his bedroom with her following him, he laid on the changing table while Heidi undid the tapes.

"Wow, this was put on well, who did this?"

"Alvin did".

"Impressive, he did a pretty good job".

"I helped him with his diaper as well as Ryan's, but something happened, maybe I shouldn't say…".

"It's okay Marvin, you can tell me, I won't say anything, promise".

"Well, it's kinda embarrassing and awkward".

"Okay…" Heidi cautiously prompted as she finished putting the first layer of cloth on him, moving onto the second.

"It happened during our diaper change, er… well Ryan's change".

"I'm not going to judge you, little bro, take your time".

"I know, but it's… difficult, I don't know if he would feel bad about it, but it's something that happens when you're putting on the diaper".

"You mean you have feelings of arousal?"

"Yeah, only Ryan had them around… me".

"Oh, right… well uh, sometimes when you're around people… both male and female, a person may gravitate towards either or both genders, this is known as sexual orientation, I'm sure you'll learn about it in school anyway, I did and there's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about".

"So, what he felt around me is his body's way of dealing with puberty?"

"Exactly, he can't really choose what arouses him, it's perfectly fine if he likes boys and not girls in that way".

"Oh man, I don't know if he wants to know about this stuff yet or if he realises it, but it happened during the refastening of his diaper".

"It's complicated, but he'll have us to be there for him if and when he wants to tackle it, okay".

"Okay…", said Marvin with a shaky sigh.

"Did he say anything when it happened?"

"Well no, but I did kinda accidentally touched his member through the outside of the diaper and it sprung outwards".

"Oh dear, I hope that didn't make him uncomfortable".

"I apologised immediately, and he just said it was part of the diapering process".

"Oh okay then".

"Look, can we just change subject now? It's making me uncomfortable".

"Sure, not a problem, I'm sure it was nothing".

After a few moments, she continued with a different topic, "So, what happened at your first day then?"

"Usual stuff, classes, break-time, lunch, diaper changes, but one thing did happen that I was expecting, to be found out right away".

"Oh really, they're not giving you a hard time already?"

"Hmm no, but I think it's beginning. You see, what happened was someone picked on Alvin first and he was gonna give him a wedgie, but he instead found out that he wore diapers. He tried to check Ryan and I, but we backed off and he deduced that we were wearing them too".

"Who is this jerk?"

"His name's Rick and he used to be a friend of Mitchell's until he decided to hang with us instead and he called us 'wussies' along with Mitchell".

"Well, his attitude is about the same state as your diapers after you've worn them awhile. It stinks and it needs to be changed. If he keeps bothering you, let me know".

"What can you do?"

"I'll find a way, nobody and I mean nobody will get away with harassing my brother or his friends because they all wear diapers".

"I should tell you that Mitchell wasn't wearing them".

"Oh… well most of you then", she corrected herself.

He went downstairs with his books, waddling in the thick diapers that his sister pinned onto him. He decided to get online first and check his email before diving into his homework right away. His sister went into the diaper factory that their mother set up in a spare room.

"Need any assistance, Mom?"

"I'll be okay, dear", replied her mother who was busy stitching up another diaper to complete an order for six diapers from one kid who explained in his email that he wanted to wear diapers more than a new bike and decided to spend all of his savings on diapers. The envelope with the money was sitting on the desk and Heidi looked through it.

"Huh, it was savings, must have been birthday and Christmas money".

"Or it could be pocket money from chores and stuff", said Rita.

"That's a good point, it might have been, man I never seem to get these boys, normally they would be buying toys and stuff with pocket money, but diapers".

"Well it seems to be spreading like wildfire, seeing the website must be triggering these boys to come out and admit they like diapers".

"Any girls yet?"

"Uh… that's the weird thing, at the moment it's just boys, but if girls want them then I can accommodate them too".

"Yeah I want to diversify my products to appeal to both genders", said Heidi.

"I think that's best, it'll make us sexists if we favour one over the other".

After a few moments of silence, her Mom turned in her desk chair, she stood up and gave herself a quick stretch, "Do you have homework?"

"Yeah I do", she replied.

"Go ahead and take care of that first, if I need a hand afterwards, I'll let you know, thanks, sweetie".

Heidi heard the door open and shut, she went out to the living room and spied her brother dumping his bag on the floor and sat at the dining room table. He felt his soiled diaper flatten more under him, he sighed.

"How was your day, Max?" asked Heidi.

"Okay, I guess", he replied.

"What's wrong?" asked Heidi as she sensed his emotion.

"I guess I really don't have any friends of my own at school now", he said. "Alvin and Marvin aren't there anymore and other than some kids that I talk to, they aren't really that close of friends".

"What about Theodore?"

"Everybody seems to think that because he's younger than me that he alienates them from me".

"As in they think you hang out with younger kids and not your own age?"

"Yeah, they think I'm weird in that I hang out with Theodore".

"Well if they're not happy with who you hang out with, I say screw them, but I'm sure there are other kids there, I mean, I know you don't want them to know you wear diapers, but maybe after you get to know someone, you'll trust him to know that you wear diapers. Maybe he'll want to wear them too".

"I doubt that, if I tell them after say a month, they'll just betray me and not hang out with me anymore".

"You say the boxes in the changing room where other kids keep their diapers were all used last year?"

"Yeah, they even had to bring in some extra boxes this year".

"Then there has to be others, others who are in your grade. You'll find someone, I have faith that you will".

"Thanks, Heidi".

"If you're like your brother, that diaper is probably begging to be changed", said Heidi.

"Not really".

"Huh, really, so you haven't used that diaper much then?"

"Nope, nurse changed me at lunch time, it's not at capacity yet".

"Oh, okay then, come to me if you need a change", said Heidi. "You have homework?"

"Uh huh, Math", he replied.

"Why don't we do ours together so that it's done?"

"I'm done with my daily email browsing, I'll join you", said Marvin waddling out to the dining room.

"Oh, what do you have?"

"English and Math introductory homework".

"Okay, well I have some too", said Heidi. "Here, I'll set my books down and bring my baby boys some refreshments".

"Oh yay, thanks Heidi", said Max.

In the dining room, three book bags were next to the three chairs at the table as the two boys sat next to each other as they got their books out.

"Ooh Math, fun", said Marvin sarcastically with a smirk.

"Hey, yours is harder", said Max giggling.

"And mine's harder than the both of yours", said Heidi with a smirk as she handed them a baby bottle of soda each and a plateful of potato chips to munch on.

She sat down and grabbed her books from her bag, the two boys looked at the books that their sister had taken out with surprise. She chuckled, "Yeah just some light reading".

"That's light?" Max asked.

"Of course, high school is no party".

Max sipped on his bottle as he read his Math assignment, "Hmm, hang on these are fractions".

"Indeed, they are, I guess she wanted you to get ready for fifth grade Math, the right way with adding fractions", said Marvin. "Don't worry I can help you… once I've done my introductory stuff".

Max unzipped his pencil case and pulled out his pen, he opened his A4 pad and wrote the date, the title of the assignment and his name at the top before looking at the questions.

"Right, here we go, fifth grade Math. '3/4 + 5/8'", he muttered to himself as he wrote out the problem. "Hmm, how does she expect us to complete this? We only had an introduction to adding fractions".

"It's not a test, Max, I'm sure you've taken down notes", said Marvin.

"Of course, I did… duh, should've known that I can look up what I wrote", said Max. "Thanks Marvin".

He took out his notebook and flicked to the first Math lesson, "Ah there we are, adding fractions, hmm adding fractions is about the LCM of both denominators, if the denominators match, just add the numerators, ah right okay", he looked back at the problem. "'3/4 + 5/8', the denominators are different so find the LCM of four and eight which is eighths… oh right, so make '3/4' into an eighth, hmm times it by two to make it '6/8 + 5/8', there we go, now I can add them. The answer is '11/8'", he wrote the working and arrived at the answer.

He continued for the rest of the ten assigned problems. "Well that's mine done, surprised I didn't get any for English or any other class, but oh well".

"Good job Max", said Heidi. "Need me to check it over?"

"Sure, if you don't mind", he said to her, handing his pad over.

"Hmm, okay", she muttered to herself as she worked out problems. "Yeah, those look right".

"Nice, how are you doing on yours bro?"

"Man, sixth grade isn't for the faint hearted, but it's okay, uh I think. Order of operations".

"Whoa already, sheesh", said Heidi.

"Yeah, it's pretty difficult, but if I remember the order it's fine".

"So what question are you on?"

"2a".

"Oh, well the first two looked tricky".

"Yeah, they were, listen to this one, '(11 x 12 / 33) X 4'".

"Uh… wow, um hmm stumped me there", said Heidi.

"I'm guessing I evaluate the bracket first then times it by the four", he said to himself, taking out a pencil to work it out. "Whoa nelly, 132 divided by 33… I don't even know my 33 times table".

"Neither do I, try scribbling multiples of 33 until you get 132 then count them".

"Okay, I'll try that, let's see 33, 66, 99, uh 132… oh four times four, ah sixteen, thanks Heidi", said Marvin as he wrote down his working and wrote the answer of sixteen.

"You're welcome, bro, so what was P.E class like?" asked Heidi.

"We didn't strip down today, it was just an orientation".

"Are there others in your class who wear diapers?"

"Counting me, Alvin and Ryan, there's twelve of us on 'diaper row'".

"Really, twelve? Were Carl and Mitchell there?"

"Carl is, but Mitchell voluntarily worn underwear again".

"There's other kids, the teacher said he'd make sure they didn't harass us".

"What about that one kid? The one that was bugging, Mitchell?"

"He's not in it, thank goodness", Marvin said as he opened his English homework.

"What did you think of Mrs Baker?"

"I hate her already", said Marvin. "I'm glad you warned me about her".

"See told you", said Heidi.

The next day at school proved to be more challenging for Alvin and his friends. As they arrived at the school, they were inundated with kids snickering behind their backs and talking in whispers while glancing at their direction occasionally. Alvin, Marvin and Ryan looked around anxiously as they did this.

"Hey look, it's the sixth-grade babies", said one of the sixth graders.

"Yeah, you should go back to nursery and have them potty train you", said another.

"Great, Rick has struck again, now everyone knows about us", said Alvin.

It was early in the day and already there were kids who had come up to Alvin and Marvin and pantsied them while they were standing at their lockers, right next to each other. A round of laughter came from the kids who were passing by and witnessing the incident. Many of them got a good look at both their diapered rear ends as they bent down to pull their shorts back up.

"Damn it, I should have worn my overalls", Alvin thought to himself, surprised that he wasn't crying over the ordeal, though very humiliated.

Down the hall from Marvin and Alvin was Ryan, who was all alone. He was next on someone's list to have his pants taken down and his diapers exposed. He wasn't as able to withhold his emotions as he began crying as he was laughed at.

"I knew this would happen!" He thought as he began to wonder why he could enjoy wearing diapers so much at home, but completely dislike wearing them in school. He wished that people weren't insensitive to his medical needs and assumed he just wore them to be weird.

By the time Alvin got to his Life Science class, just about everyone who knew who he was, was aware of the fact he wore diapers. Even though not everyone did know him from previous education settings, they were educated in this aspect. During class, lab partners were determined and paired up, each set of two students would be partners for the entire semester and switched over to occur after the semester break. Alvin just happened to be paired up with Karen. A simple exercise was assigned to the partners to become acquainted with one another. It didn't take long for a kid to spot Alvin and Karen together.

"So how does it feel to have 'Diaper Boy' as a lab partner?" the bratty kid said.

"One more remark like that, young man and you're going to straight to the principal!" Ms Kelly shouted.

"Well, he does wear diapers", the kid continued.

"You're only acting old enough that you should probably be wearing them!" she scolded him.

This shut him and the rest of the class up rather quickly. "Now get back to the task in hand".

Alvin could hardly refrain from completely exhibiting the extent of his embarrassment. Fortunately for him, Karen was understanding of his situation and well aware of his circumstances.

"Don't listen to them, I don't care that you wear them, remember that. I don't care if you're my lab partner either, I'd rather have someone that does his work than have someone who goofs around".

"Thanks for saying that, you really didn't need to, but thanks", said Alvin.

The entire exercise lasted fifteen minutes and the students returned to their seats. The students were then issued with a textbook to borrow for the year, Ms Kelly went through each chapter discussing what they would be covering in the next two nine week terms. During the discussion, Alvin felt his bowels churning and he'd been lucky until now not to release his bowels in class in front of the class. He stopped listening and tried to hold it back.

"Ah crap", he thought to himself feeling uncomfortable and looked up at the clock that said he had thirty minutes to go and he knew if he got up, it would be a disaster.

He carried on, looking through the textbook as his lower abdomen cramped up, he held his breath and tensed until the feeling subsided with an audible growl.

"There is no way I'm gonna let them know I actually use these too… ah who am I kidding? I have to wear them for peeing anyway, they probably heard the story already", he thought.

Ten seconds later, a sharp cramp made him unclench his butt cheeks and a small muffled fart rippled into the diaper with a strong push from the bowels. He stayed in one spot as he sat feeling powerless as he leant forward a little and thought about the implications of this action on his entire reputation. With a slight push, he could feel his bottom crowning, he continued to push in parts as the back of the diaper was absorbing the content being deposited. He ended with a muffled fart as it broke off into the diaper leaving his butt detached from the mess. He cautiously sat and pretended it never occurred, but he could hear that some kids were whispering about the room becoming stinky and they were referring to him and saying that he had an accident like a little baby. He knew he had to go deal with his diaper, he got up and went up to Ms Kelly and showed her, his special pass that allowed him to be excused from classes for this purpose. She dismissed him and let him go down to the changing room. He could smell his dirty diaper and presumably anyone who would come within a few foot of him could too. When he got there with his things, he saw that the changing room was occupied with other kids who were waiting to get into the room. Two of the kids who were presumably waiting to use the changing room were older-looking boys, the other one, a seventh grade boy. As the time seemed to pass slowly between diaper changes, this gave him time to think.

"Hmm it seemed as though it was only boys who practiced this lifestyle more than girls, but surely girls had these desires too, I need to research this when I get home or maybe I could ask Marvin about it", he thought to himself.

He looked in and observed how the others were cleaning up and putting their own diapers on, it became clear that they were using disposables too. He had to learn sooner or later to do these changes himself. When a vacant spot opened, he took his stuff and spent several minutes getting himself cleaned up. Pulling off the diaper, using the front to clean off as much as possible though it wasn't too bad as demonstrated from others and the people that had changed him before. He rolled it up and taped it up tightly to prevent leaks, he put it in the trash bin and took the toilet roll and wiped as much as possible before taking a clean one and on observation, he noticed they were leaning on the wall to pin the diaper and using that to hold it while making the adjustments necessary to keep it tight. He did the same and taped it as tightly as possible and hopefully not have it leak on him. As soon as he unpinned the diaper from the wall, there was a noticeable sag and it was too late for him to request assistance from the nurse, so he made do with what he had. He figured he would be okay for now and have Marvin help him at lunch. He washed his paws and went with his stuff back to class.

There was only five minutes left and most of the students looked bored. Ms Kelly handed Alvin a big stack of papers that had been distributed to the rest of the class. He quickly talked to Karen before trotting off to his English class, which was two doors up the hall. He followed her to her locker and asked if he missed anything.

"No, nothing important, she just rambled through the table of contents mostly".

"Would you join me and my friends at lunch?"

"Sure", she replied. "I just hope Tim won't mind".

"Who's Tim?"

"Well, he's my boyfriend… sort of",

"Oh… you have a boyfriend?"

"I met him at the water park last summer".

"Is he that tall kid, with muscles?"

We all have muscles".

"Yeah, I guess we do, don't we?"

"I guess that doesn't mean anything, does it?"

"I guess not".

"Look, don't look disappointed. It's not like we're serious or anything. He tries to act cool and all and he's on the football team and he's showing off".

"So, can we be friends?"

"Of course", she said as she smiled. "Well, I gotta get to class".

"Meet us at the table by the door", he said as he was about to go to class. He only had to go two doors, but he was called upon as she disappeared into her class.

"Hey kid!" A kid hollered behind him.

He stopped and shakily craned his head behind him, "Oh crap", he thought as he recognised him as Tim.

"What were you talking to my girl for?"

"We were just…"

Tim shoved him into the wall. "Listen, wimp. The minute I catch you away from teachers, POW!" he threatened as the bully shoved his fist towards Alvin's face, just stopping within a quarter of an inch of his nose.

Tim then sniffed the air and detected a lingering odour that was coming from Alvin.

"Why don't you go home and get your Mommy to change you, Diaper Boy?"

He ran ahead to catch his so-called girlfriend.

Alvin stayed at the wall in shock before swallowing his pride that was shattered and went to English. He sat at his desk and he caught some stares from people who knew he was in diapers. Others could tell just from the smell alone. As the teacher slowly and monotonously lectured, he became lulled by boredom and couldn't wait for the bell to ring. He had also wet his diaper once and from examining the crotch of his short, it had leaked as he feared. He decided that now was a good time to get that taken care of. He hoped that he could walk to the front of the class without anyone noticing the front of his shorts being wet. In spite of this, they still laughed as they could see the back of his shorts were wet. After showing the teacher his pass, he left the room, ignoring the unwanted attention that he was getting. When he got to the nurse's office, there was no line and nobody in the room changing.

"Back already?" the nurse commented. She then looked down at Alvin's shorts.

"Oh dear", she said.

"Uh, can I have some assistance?" Alvin asked shyly.

"Why, of course, don't be shy, it's okay", she replied comfortingly.

She escorted him into the room. As he pulled off his shorts, his diaper sagged even further from his crotch. He laid on the hard wooden bench. The nurse approached him and glanced at his shorts.

"Your shorts are wet, can I call your mother or someone to bring you some dry pants or shorts?"

"Sure", said Alvin.

"You might want to keep an extra pair of pants or shorts with you from now on", the nurse advised.

"It was my first time trying to diaper myself".

"I see, well I'm always happy to assist, it's mostly what I do".

"Actually, can I just put my shorts back on?"

"Well, I suppose, if that's what you want to do, but I strongly advise against that", said the nurse.

"What I mean is, I put them on and grab my gym shorts and wear those instead".

"Okay, that seems reasonable, I'll write you a nurse's note in case a teacher catches you out of class".

She performed the diaper change, wiped him better than he had done previously and proceeded to wrote a quick nurse's note for him to carry with him. He put his wet shorts on and thanked the nurse for her assistance as he left to head to his locker. He wandered to the locker room and unlocked his locker to retrieve his gym shorts. He passed through the gymnasium which was empty since the P.E. classes were held outside that period. He went into the changing room and changed out of his wet shorts and put on his gym shorts. He put his wet shorts in his diaper bag and left towards his class. He was briefly stopped by a teacher to enquire why he wasn't in class. He showed the teacher the note, the matter was dismissed and was told to swiftly to return to his class.

He returned to his English class. Everyone could see that not only did he change into a different pair of shorts, but that he apparently had no alternative, but to wear his P.E. shorts. The remainder of the class period passed then at last, the lunch bell rang.

Alvin and the others all met at the table that they had designated to be their regular meeting place. Everyone was there except for Ryan, who later showed up after telling them in a subtle way that he was changing himself.

"Just say 'I was in the bathroom', we all know what you mean".

"Everybody knows about us now. What does it matter, how we say it?"

"Yeah thanks to that asshole Rick. Have you seen him today?"

"He tried to get in a fight with me again", Mitchell said. "Then a teacher came and warned him before he did anything".

"I wonder where Karen is".

"Ooh, Karen. Is this a GIRLfriend?" Carl asked.

"Well, she's a friend, just a friend".

"Sure".

Just then he looked over to the next row of tables and saw Karen sitting with Tim. Karen looked at Alvin and acknowledged him, as if to say, "Sorry Alvin, I really wanted to sit with you, but this jerk wants me to sit with him instead".

"She has a boyfriend already", Alvin said with a heavy sigh as he pointed to Karen. "See that tall guy? His name is Tim and he got mad at me for talking to her".

"They don't like us here, do they?" Marvin remarked.

"I just hope everyone shuts up about us because we…"

"They think I do the same thing because of what Rick was going around telling everyone. I don't do it at school".

"Well we have had our lunch, what do you suppose we do now? Walk around or stay here?" Marvin asked. "I'm kinda tired of being teased right now".

"Hey, it's the diaper babies!" a kid said as he passed by the table that they were sitting at.

"Ever heard of a toilet?" another kid shortly afterwards.

"See what I mean?" said Marvin.

"Let's go to the library, nobody will bother us there", Alvin suggested.

"Aww, man, the library. That's lame", said Carl.

"It's better than sitting here and being harassed by the other kids", said Marvin.

"What are you supposed to do there, sit there and read books?" asked Carl.

"That's usually the function of a library", Ryan remarked in a deadpan tone.

"Well, I can't read very good, that's why I'm basic classes", said Carl.

"You're in my art class, you can draw better than I can, that's for sure", said Alvin.

"That's why I took the drawing class, so I could get a good grade in something. Maybe sometime, I'll bring you the drawings that I was working on last night".

"No, please not those drawings! Don't you dare bring them to school, the kids will have a field day if they caught those" Mitchell told his brother. "Look if you want to show Alvin and the others then wait until they come over or we go to their place or something".

"You can draw in the library".

"Sure".

"We'll meet you there. Right now, though we have to go to the 'bathroom'", said Marvin.

Carl and Mitchell went with Ryan leaving Alvin and Marvin to go to the 'bathroom', Marvin thought his code words were bullet-proof, but as he said it, someone overheard.

"What for, diaper boy?" It wasn't just any kid, but Rick. "Is 'Baby Marvin' gonna be changed in there?"

"Rick, leave us alone!" Marvin pleaded angrily.

"What did we do to you?" Alvin asked.

"It's what your lame-ass friend Mitchell did! He hangs out with a bunch of babies now!"

"Anything wrong with that?"

"Yeah, diapers are for babies, moron!"

"Would you say mean stuff about us if we were in wheelchairs?"

"What's that gotta do with wearing diapers?"

"Ever think about the possibility that we have to wear them?" said Marvin.

"Oh really? Did Mommy and Daddy not potty train you or something?"

"Alvin had an accident on his bike, if you really want to know".

"Oh yeah. I remember Mitch telling me about that! I thought it was pretty damn funny when I heard about it!"

"You would, Rick, you would".

"I've gone down that hill on my bike since then and I didn't wreck", said Alvin.

"Too late, look what it did to you the first time!" said Rick as he walked off.

"Asshole!" Marvin grumbled. "Let's go change… I mean, you know".

Ryan, Carl and Mitchell got tired of waiting in the library and went to the nurse's office. Alvin was waiting outside since he didn't need changing at that time. He told Carl and Mitchell about their confrontation with Rick.

"I know he'll be suspended for something this year and it won't be long before it happens", said Mitchell.

After Marvin got himself into a dry diaper, the lunch period was almost over. Everyone dispersed off for their next class.

P.E. had come at the end of the day and Alvin and Marvin knew that this was the day that they would have to undress in front of the other boys who were wearing diapers. Alvin went to his area, he only had to change his shirt. He couldn't help, but observe the others as they changed, seeing what kinds of diapers they had on. Most of them were wearing disposable diapers, some of which had wetness strips on them. They were indicating that they were wet. Ryan was on the endmost locker, looking embarrassed as he removed his shorts and exposing his high-rising white diaper that he had on. He quickly put his gym shorts on. Marvin was next to Alvin and next to Marvin were the twin boys, Ben and Billy. Alvin saw that they were wearing plastic pants over their diapers, so he wondered if they were wearing cloth diapers. He remembered seeing two sets of cloth diapers in the boxes in the changing room and figured that they belonged to them. Alvin and Marvin were surprised by the lack of embarrassment shown from the other boys, it seemed as though they got over the shyness and just got on with their self-care and independence whereas the three boys were uncomfortable about changing for P.E. class. The class then went out on the playing field and the coach ran the boys through several warm-up exercises and had them run the track. Alvin figured he wouldn't be the first to cross the finish line, with his diaper on. He would've had it not been for the diaper in between his legs. Marvin also didn't set very high expectations either. Ryan, however, was quite a sprinter, but was smart enough to do this in bursts to catch up with the majority of the class. The two twin boys finished last, far behind Marvin and Alvin. They were walking and panting. After performing a series of other exercises, the boys were done for the day and they returned to the locker room. So far in P.E. at least the coach kept his word and any remarks of diapers would be severely reprimanded, but surprisingly he didn't need to use it in this class. As Alvin only needed to change his shirt, he was done quickly, but he waited outside for the others. After Marvin and Ryan got dressed, they joined Alvin and the other boys and waited inside the locker room for the final bell to ring. The assistant coach was blocking the door to keep anyone from leaving early. When the bell rang, he moved from the door and the kids left the locker room and scattered, either to board a bus or walk home.

"Can you guys come over?" Marvin asked his friends as they walked to the bus.

"Sure, I can", said Alvin.

"Me, too", said Ryan.

Just as they were halfway up the hallway, they were greeted by Rick, who was just as obnoxious as expected.

"Have a nice day, diaper boys!" Rick said.

Right behind him was Tim, "See you later, wimps!"

"This is gonna be a long year", the boys all thought to themselves.
