After I was diapered, I laid down on my bed to read. After a while, my father stopped in and told me to put my book away and go to sleep. I finished the chapter and went to sleep.
At 11:45, I woke up with a huge urge to pee. I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom. I was really happy, maybe I'll finally have a dry night. I yanked down my pants and tried to yank down the goodnite, but it wasn't going. As I took a look, I saw cookie monster staring at me and remembered that I was wearing a diaper. I tried fumbling with the diaper tapes, but couldn't get it. So I ran to my parents room to get help.
As I entered my mother's room, I shook my mother and said "Mommy, I need to pee and I need your help with the tapes on my diaper". "Davey, what are you doing out of your crib", she said. "It's me, James", I said. "Jamie, why do you need help, just pull the goodnite down", she said. Embarrassed, I pulled my pants down to show the diaper that I was wearing. "I can't get the tapes". "Oh", she said. "Come quick". We ran to the toilet together, but by then it was too late. "Don't worry, I won't hold it against you". She then cleaned me up with some baby wipes and proceeded to re-diaper me. As I walked back to my room, I couldn't help but think that I may actually have a dry night tonight.
The next thing that I heard was the thump thump of the road, together with my father honking his horn. It was a rude awakening. "What's going on", I asked. "Where are we"? "We're 2 hours away from home, there was an emergency at work, and I was called in", said my father. "But what about our weekend at grandpa and grandma's", I asked. "Don't worry, we'll head back there after school finishes for a week", said my mother. "And we'll work it out that you and Drew can have a sleepover".
I was a bit annoyed, but what can I do. I turned to look out the window, when I heard a slight crinkle. I pulled on my pants and saw that I was still wearing the diaper. "Mommy, I'm still in the you know what", I said, not wanting Davey to know that I was wearing a diaper like him "I know, we couldn't change you", she said. "But you can change when we stop". "Are you dry", she asked. I did a quick examination and notified her that I was.
About a hour later, I felt an urge to pee. "In how long will we be stopping", I asked, "I need the bathroom". "There's a rest area in 5 miles" said my father. As we got closer, there was a big sign REST AREA CLOSED, NEXT ONE IN 40 MILES. "No", I shouted, "I have to pee". "Don't worry, we'll be home soon", said my dad. Unbeknown to me Davey had woken up. "You can wear a diaper like me", he said. I turned bright red, if only he knew.
As we got closer to the exit, I started to hold myself to stop the pee from coming out. I was silently praying. Mile 76, 75, 74. By now spurts of pee was coming out. Just keep praying I thought to myself, hold on. Mile 66, 65, 64. By now I saw our exit, but the diaper was damp. "We're almost there", said my father. All of a sudden a car swerved in front of us, causing my father to short stopped. As my father let out a few choice words, I let out my insides. All I could do was sit in disbelief as the diaper did its magic, in absorbing my pee. I couldn't believe that I have had 2 accidents WHILE AWAKE in the span of 12 hours.
My parents turned around and were able to tell what had happened, without me saying a word. "We're only 15 minutes away from home, so if you don't mind, you'll change when we get home", said my father. I just nodded my head, feeling like a big baby.
