Actors Age Regression One-Shots

First Steps - Dakota Johnson

"Okay, I think that's everything we needed to discuss for tomorrow's shoot. We'll see you girls at the venue at 7 AM. Have a great night", Sean Durkin, the director of Y/N and Dakota's current project, said before dismissing the girls after their meeting and retrieving to his own hotel room.

"Well Ottie, I don't know about you, but I'm beat, so I'm heading to bed to sleep a decent number of hours to function so early in the morning. I'll see you tomorrow", Y/N told her costar as she stood up from the couch at the lobby and leaned down to give Dakota a cheek kiss goodbye. Before Y/N could leave completely, Dakota grabbed her hand and made her stop in her tracks. Y/N turned around confused. "Woah, what's up?"

"Y/N, I...I don't feel very well", Dakota let out in barely above a whisper.

"Oh, um...do you need anything? Should I call a doctor? How can I help you?", Y/N rambled out multiple questions, immediately worried for her friend. Dakota only managed to shake her head frantically before gulping deeply and looking up to meet Y/N's gaze. When Y/N saw Dakota's eyes glossed over, the concern in her heart only deepened. "Hey, there's no need for tears. What's wrong? Talk to me"

"I...there's something I need to tell you"

"Okay, I'm listening. What's going on, Ottie?", Y/N reassured carefully as she waited for Dakota to tell her whatever she wanted to share with her.

"This may sound weird, and you might not understand what I'm talking about at first but I...I'm a little", Dakota rambled out to Y/N before waiting in silence for her response. Y/N stared at Dakota for a few seconds, trying to process what Dakota had just shared with her, but those few seconds felt like an eternity to Dakota, so she panicked. "I know it sounds weird, and it doesn't make sense how I just referred to myself, but I need to explain this to you so-"

"Hold on a minute, Ottie. You said you are a little? As in you practice Age Regression?", Y/N asked Dakota, which surprised her deeply as Y/N knew what Dakota was talking about.

"Yeah. How do you...know about littles? Are you a little too?", Dakota asked Y/N, earning a soft laugh from her before she shook her head in response.

"No, I actually dated someone who was a little too, and they were the ones who introduced me to the world of Age Regression. I was their caregiver and looked after them many times", Y/N explained simply to Dakota, who was still in shock about that coincidence. "It's cool that you wanted to share with me your little truth, I feel honored to know something else about you. But is there something specific you wanted to tell me about that?"

"Well, yeah. I uh...I wanted to tell you that I was a little and have been searching for a caregiver. Tonight specifically, I wanted to regress since I haven't done it in a while, but didn't want to do it alone and wanted to see if you could look after me. You're my friend, and I trust you, so I was hoping you would agree to help me with my bedtime routine. It's really cool that you already know about the age regression world, but if you would rather head to bed early and do your own thing, you don't have to help me", Dakota explained to Y/N her intentions behind her special request but gave Y/N the option to back down.

"Well, it's not that late, and I would be more than happy to look after you, Ottie. Are you feeling little right now?", Y/N agreed easily to be Dakota's babysitter for the night before asking a very important question. Dakota only nodded in response, her widened pupils a clear giveaway of her slipping further into her little headspace. "Okay, would you like me to carry you to your room?"

"No, I tan walk", Dakota let out in a much quieter and shy voice, signaling Y/N that Dakota had regressed quicker than she anticipated.

"Alright, then. Make sure to hold my hand until we get to your room, okay? Could you give me your keycard?", Y/N instructed a regressed Dakota before asking for the keycard of her hotel room to figure out where it was and get to it promptly. Dakota got the keycard out of her jacket pocket and handed it to Y/N before Y/N grabbed Dakota's purse and offered her free hand to the actress. "Let's go, sweetheart", Y/N invited Dakota softly as she carefully intertwined her hand with Y/N's before they started walking towards the elevators.
