"Bill" BY CODY MATTHEW JAMES III 2/8/05

Chapter 34 GETTING READY FOR THE WEDDING

"Scotty you awake?"

"What you want Ricky?"

"I'm hungry."

I looked at the clock and it was seven thirty.

"Go tell Cathy."

"I can't."

"Why not Ricky?"

When Ricky looked at me I knew the answer.

"You have number two accident last night Ricky?"

"Yea but I didn't mean to."

"You have to go number two before we went to bed?"

"No."

"You probably just had a bad dream and had an accident Ricky. I've done 
that before."

"Cathy will be mad at me."

"About what little bro?" Cathy asked as she entered the room.

"Ricky had a pooping accident last night Cathy."

Ricky started softly crying as he said, "I haven't pooped in my diaper 
in long time."

"It's okay Ricky. Everyone has an accident once in a while, even 
adults." Cathy said as she sat down on the bed.

"Yeah Ricky and you scared the poop out of me yesterday."

Ricky's soft crying turned to little bouts of laughter as he thought 
about yesterday morning.

"I know who's getting a bath first." I said.

"And while he's being bathed I know who is sitting on the potty." Cathy 
said as she picked up Ricky.

"Bill an my mom aren't here Cathy and I don't wanna give Ricky a bath."

"Good try kid�Into the bathroom Scotty now or I'll have Ricky give you 
a bath as soon as I finish giving him one."

"Okay!" I said.

"Let me rephrase that Scotty, if you don't get your butt in the 
bathroom now, tomorrow at the wedding you'll be wearing only a smile 
and diaper while you walk your mom down the aisle." Cathy said, then 
laughed.

I was waiting patiently in the bathroom as Cathy and Ricky got there.

Cathy dropped a towel down then she stood Ricky on it and took his 
diaper off him. She emptied the diaper into the toilet then she put the 
diaper into the sink. Cathy turned the water on in the bathtub, then 
she took my diaper off of me. I put the potty seat up onto the toilet 
then Cathy sat me up on it. Ricky climbed into the tub and then Cathy 
started washing him.

"After you guys eat breakfast we need to go to the mall and pick up the 
pictures then swing by the tux shop and get those. I need to pick up 
your mothers gown, stop by the grocery store then home. Remember 
Scotty, I need to teach you how to walk down the aisle this afternoon 
then I need to call Mrs. Cutter so I can tell her what time Fred Jordan 
is going to pick up Chris. Scotty, your mom will be home about twelve 
noon then she needs to go get her hair cut and styled. When she takes 
off to get that done, I want to try on your tux and Ricky's page suit."

"Okay Cathy but I don't think either of them will fit you."

"You know what I mean smarty."

"If you sew them both together they might fit you then Cathy."

"Are you finished Scotty?"

"Yup."

"I mean on the toilet?"

"Nope."

"Finish then."

I sat there and tried to go but I couldn't.

"Cathy, I tried but I can't go."

"Okay Scotty, maybe later."

Cathy took me off the potty seat and put me into the tub with Ricky.

"Can I wash Scotty now?" Ricky asked as he got the washcloth.

"I'd better do it Ricky otherwise we'll never get done."

Cathy washed my hair then she washed my back, stomach, and when I stood 
up, she washed my legs and front.

"Okay you turkeys time to get out." Cathy said as she lifted Ricky out 
of the tub.

"What we having for breakfast Cathy?"

"Cereal this morning Ricky as soon as I get you two diapered."

Cathy finished drying Ricky off then she dried me off and then we went 
to my room.

"Ricky. up on the dresser and school diapers today monkeys."

I sat down on my bed while Cathy diapered Ricky, and as soon as he was 
finished it was my turn.

"Cathy, think two diapers will be enough for me tomorrow at the 
wedding?"

"It will be unless you have some champagne after the wedding."

"You mean�"

"NO!"

"Not even�"

"Not even Scotty."

Cathy helped me down off the dresser then Ricky and me ran to the 
kitchen. Cathy poured our cereal then our milk as she said, "I'm going 
to get ready so you two hurry up and eat."

Ricky and me started eating our cereal, then Cathy said, "AND NO 
WRESTLING!"

Ricky looked at me as I looked at him, and we both knew that was the 
next thing on our list of things we wanted to do today. When we 
finished eating, Cathy took us back to my bedroom and put our sun suits 
on us.

"Okay you guys I need you to be on your best behavior today. It's going 
to be a long day and I don't want any fighting or messing around. I 
want the wedding tomorrow to be something real special that Bill and 
your mom will remember for the rest of their lives. As soon as I get 
the diaper bag we will be going to the mall to pick up the pictures 
then we will be going to the tux shop. I'd better put some bibs in the 
bag JIC." Cathy said and then she went to the kitchen to get them, then 
she went to my room and got the diaper bag and put the bibs into it.

"Ready to go monkeys?" Cathy asked as she picked up her handbag and 
headed towards the front door.

"Ah, Cathy?"

"What Scotty?"

"Do we need to wear shoes or we going barefoot?"

"You two run in and put your sandals on, and hurry." Cathy said as she 
waited at the door.

Ricky and me ran to my room and grabbed our sandals then we ran out the 
front door, down the hallway to the S.U.V. As we stood there, Ricky 
pushed me then I pushed him back as Cathy got there.

"Up in an into your seats you guys and remember NO FIGHTING."

From the tone of her voice, Ricky and I knew she was serious.

When we got to the mall, we hurried inside then down the staircase to 
the photographers. As we got there, the man that took the pictures of 
us yesterday was standing at the counter.

"Oh Miss Heather glad to see you. Your pictures are ready and framed 
like you asked. Would you like to see them now?"

"Ah we really don't have enough time right now but if I need any 
changes to the pictures I will let you know." Cathy said as she picked 
up the wrapped pictures.

As we started to leave, people were looking at me and pointing at me.

"Cathy I think we better get out of here. I think those people know who 
I am." I said as I looked towards the front door.

When we got to the stairs, Ricky and me started up and Cathy followed 
as she said, "I hope they don't mob us like they did yesterday."

We made it to the door, and I held it for Cathy then we walked briskly 
to the S.U.V. Cathy unlocked the S.U.V. and placed the pictures in the 
rear then she unlocked the sliding door. Ricky and I climbed into our 
car seats as Cathy closed the door behind her and then she fastened 
Ricky's harness then she fastened mine.

"Looks like we got that over with faster then I thought. Now I just 
hope the tuxes are ready when we get there."

Cathy started up the S.U.V. then we headed out onto Arden Ave., and as 
we passed by the billboard I looked over my shoulder as much as I could 
and my picture was still up on the billboard.

"Your picture still up there Scotty?"

"Yeah Cathy but I don't mind."

"We might have to make a disguise for you so you can still go to the 
mall and not be recognized."

"What kind of disguise?"

"Oh I was thinking we can do something with your hair like pony tails 
and then�"

"I aint gonna wear a dress Cathy, no way!"

"You would look so cute Scotty." Cathy said then giggled.

"Yeah." Ricky said as he giggled.

"I AINT GONNA WEAR A DRESS!!!"

"Okay Scotty but it looks like you won't be coming back to this mall."

I was mad as I sat there. I would do anything for Cathy, even risk my 
life, but I would never wear a dress not even for her. That was going 
too far I thought as I looked out the window.

When we got to the tux shop Cathy unfastened our car seat harnesses 
then we went inside. The big man who helped us Wednesday was there.

"Miss heather, the tuxedos are ready for you."

"Is Bill Stiles' tux ready, and I need to pick up Chris's and one more 
tux for another boy."

"Four tuxes and one page suit and they are ready to go."

"I would like to try Scotty's pants and Ricky's shorts on them to make 
sure they fit."

"Sure, Miss Heather,"

"Who is the other tux for Cathy?"

"Oh someone you know Scotty."

"Is it for Bill's ring bearer?"

"Can't tell you Scotty."

"You can tell me Cathy but you won't."

"And your right Scotty. Bill told me if I tell you I would be in 
trouble."

"Miss heather. you can use the same room we used Wednesday to fit the 
boys." the guy said as he led us to the back room.

As we entered the room, the man bent down and said to me, "Ricky's 
stockings are in the box so he won't have to wear the white tights."

"Come on Ricky and lets try on your shorts to see if they are going to 
be okay on you." Cathy said as she sat the boxes down on the table.

"Miss Heather why don't you try Scotty's pants on him to see if they 
fit him and I will dress master Ricky in his shorts. Scotty is more 
important at this gathering then is Master Ricky."

"Okay Scotty lets try those pants on you. I want to be sure you look 
your best when you walk your mother down the aisle." Cathy said as she 
opened my box.

Cathy unsnapped my sun suit and slipped it off over my head, then she 
held the pants down for me to step into, and then she pulled them up 
and fastened the waistband.

"I thought the pants would fit better on Scotty in it had an elastic 
back waist Miss Heather."

"Yes it does and there is plenty of room in the seat for a double 
diaper. You did an excellent job on these."

"The shorts will have plenty of room for Ricky's diapers Miss. 
Heather." the man said as he turned Ricky around to show Cathy.

"Looks like you do fine work�Okay Scotty lets get you dressed an then 
we can go pick up you mother's wedding gown."

Cathy took my pants off me then she put my sun suit back on me and then 
snapped the crotch. The man got Ricky dressed as Cathy put my pants 
into the box.

"Oh I almost forgot to thank you for all your help, Mr.?"

"All my friends call me Charles."

"Thank you very much Charles an you can call me Cathy. I took your 
suggestion and enrolled Ricky and Scotty into ballet class."

"I know they will like it as soon as they learn a few steps. I wished I 
had never left ballet I miss it so much now."

"I think once the monkeys try it they will love it too."

"WILL NOT!" Ricky and I said in unison.

"Just give it a try boys. It's not the sissy thing most boys make it 
out to be."

"Thank you again Charles." Cathy said as she handed Ricky and me our 
boxes then picked up the three other boxes.

Charles held the door as we left the store, and as I looked back at 
Charles, he winked at me again and I knew why.

We put the boxes in the rear of the S.U.V. then after we got into our 
car seats, then Cathy fastened our car seat harnesses between our legs.

"Next stop is the bridal store to pick up your mother's gown Scotty." 
Cathy said as we left the parking lot.

"Can we stay in the car `while you go in Cathy?"

"Sorry Scotty but you guys have to come in with me."

"How come?"

"I don't care if someone steals the S.U.V. but I don't want you two in 
here if they do."

"Then are you...?"

"No Scotty I wont tease you about wearing a dress anymore�and I know 
Ricky wont either."

I looked over at Ricky and his mouth was wide open but no words were 
coming out, then I watched as his mouth closed slowly.

"You promise Cathy?"

"YES I promise Scotty, but we have to figure something you can wear for 
a disguise."

"Like what?"

"How bout long hair like Jason." Ricky said.

"Yeah�I think that might do it." Cathy said as she looked at me in the 
rear view mirror.

"Then I will look like a GIRL!"

"Not hair that long. I was thinking about shoulder length hair."

"Yeah like Jason's."

"Do you think it will work Cathy?"

"I think I know exactly what you need Scotty. How would you like to be 
a sandy haired kid?" Cathy asked as she pulled into the parking lot in 
front of the bridal store

"I guess so."

"Ricky remember that costume store we went to get your hat and jacket 
when you played Mr. Lincoln in the first grade?"

"YEAH they have lots of hair there."

"Wigs Ricky and remember the one you tried on?"

"Yeah. I liked that one."

"What are you guys talking about Cathy?"

"There is or was a wig that was sandy in color and it was long enough 
to hide Ricky's eyes and I think it would be right for you Scotty."

"Can I get one too, Cathy?"

"We'll think about it bro." Cathy said as she unfastened our car seat 
harnesses.

We followed Cathy into the store and I couldn't believe all the wedding 
dresses they had there. Cathy went over to the counter and talked to a 
saleswoman while Ricky and me looked at the gowns.

"Scotty, want to see your mom's wedding gown?"

I looked at Cathy and nodded, then she led me to the back room.

I looked at the dress as the lady held it up an I couldn't take my eyes 
off of it.

"Is that what my mom's is gonna be wearing tomorrow, Cathy?"

"That's it Scotty. What do you think about it?"

"It's pretty."

"Yeeeah," Ricky said.

"I'll put this back in the box Cathy then it's will be ready for you."

"Thank you Lisa."

"Where we going now?" Ricky asked.

"We need to go by the grocery store�and no candy Ricky."

"OH MAN. You mean to me Cathy."

When we got back to the S.U.V. Cathy placed my mom's wedding gown on 
the front seat and when she turned around to buckle us into our car 
seats Ricky had beat her to it.

When we got to the supermarket, the parking lot was almost full of 
cars.

"Looks like a lot of people are taking off from work early today. I 
wonder if there is a holiday Monday? Cathy said.

"Maybe they are going to the ship on Monday to watch my mom and Bill�I 
mean my new dad go on their cruise." I said.

"I don't think so Scotty."

When we entered the store, Ricky grabbed a shopping cart and headed for 
the first aisle.

"What are we going to buy here Cathy?"

"We need to pick up some food for you guys for tomorrow."

"I thought we were going to have finger sandwiches to eat."

"We are at the reception but I have got to feed four monkeys tomorrow 
at dinner time."

"You mean Chris is going to stay after the wedding?"

"Yeah and I thought you guys could go swimming too and Chris will be 
spending the night."

"You mean Chris is going to sleep over?"

"Yeah I thought you might like that Scotty."

"YEAH but Cathy, who's the forth monkey?"

"Sorry Scotty but you will have to wait to find that out."

"RATS!"

When we went into the store, Ricky headed for the candy aisle, I headed 
for the cereal aisle and Cathy went to the first aisle. I spotted the 
cereal I wanted and picked my three favorites, then I walked back 
towards Cathy. Ricky had I package of candy in his hands as we met.

"Cathy said no candy Ricky."

"I want only this one."

"She won't let you have it."

"Yes she will Scotty." Ricky said as we approached Cathy.

I watched Ricky as he held up the candy and put on his sad act. Cathy 
looked at him and said, "Okay Ricky just this one package only, and 
Scotty, you think you have enough cereal?"

"Be right back!" I said as I dumped the boxes of cereal into the 
shopping cart.

"Hold on Scotty. I think that will last a couple of days the way you 
two eat. No more cereal."

"Aw Cathy just one more box. I never got to eat the good stuff while I 
was a kid."

"What do you mean WAS A KID? Your still a kid Scotty."

"I'm almost twelve Cathy an that's GROWN UP, an I know you don't like 
cooking with fire so this will be easier on you and�"

"Okay Scotty okay, one more box."

Ricky and me ran back to the cereal aisle as I looked over the 
different kinds, Ricky pick one out and held it towards me. When he saw 
it was okay with me we ran back to Cathy, and put the box into the 
cart.

"Scotty, why don't you go an get a package of pampers baby dry mega 
pack for me."

Before the words were out of her mouth, me and Ricky were running over 
to the diaper aisle. As I looked for the Pampers diapers adults were 
staring at me as I walked by them. I looked at my sun suit to make sure 
my crotch had not become unsnapped. As I walked past one mom pushing 
her baby in the cart, her eyes followed me. I over at the shelves and 
noticed one shelf was only half filled with diapers and as I looked at 
the brand I noticed they were the Jordan school diapers. I looked at 
the sign on the shelf and my picture was on it, and in the picture I 
was only wearing a sport diaper.

"Ricky, go tell Cathy I want her over here."

Ricky looked at the picture, then at me, then he ran off to go get 
Cathy.

A woman walked by and noticed me looking at the picture then she 
stopped and looked at the picture then at me.

"Are you the little boy in the picture?"

I nodded my head slowly as I stared at the picture.

More adults were stopping now and looking at the picture and comparing 
it to me.

"Are you that sweet child in the picture?"

I looked over my shoulder and there was a little old lady looking at me 
and her eyes had a twinkle in them.

"Yes ma'am its me."

"You look so cute and delightful in that picture child."

More people were stopping now and a few of them picked up a package of 
the Jordan diapers and then looked at me.

"His picture is on the back of the package and he's wearing the exact 
same sun suit like the picture on the package." one woman said as she 
turned me to face her.

"What's the matter Scotty?" Cathy asked as she walked up.

"Look!" I said as I pointed to the picture.

"Looks like Bill forgot to tell us about this too. When we get home I 
am going to tell him what I think about this!"

"It's okay Cathy."

"He should have told us about this before he put your picture on the 
package Scotty or at least he could have warned us that they were 
selling Jordan diapers at the stores now."

"I know it wasn't Bill's or uncle Fred's fault."

Cathy took my hand and led me to the check out stand. As the cashier 
scanned the items, she kept glancing at me.

"Oh Ricky run and get the pampers diapers before she's through." Cathy 
said as she put the last of the groceries onto the checkout counter.

Ricky ran off nearly bumping into one customer an then he darted around 
the other customers waiting in line.

"I'm surprised that you are buying pampers diapers for your little 
brother Miss.. Aren't you supposed to be using only the Jordan diapers 
on him?" the cashier asked.

'We buy the pampers diapers only for emergencies." Cathy answered.

Ricky made it back just as the last item was scanned. After Cathy paid 
for the groceries we left the store, then Cathy said, "I'm surprised 
that Bill or Mr. Jordan don't have your picture plastered all over the 
place by now Scotty."

I looked over my shoulder at the store, stopped dead in my tracks and 
pointed back towards the store as I yelled, "Look Cathy!"

Cathy quickly turned to look at the store, then I said, "Got you 
Cathy!"

"For that Scotty you get one extra swim lesson tomorrow."

"Awww Cathy."

"Got you Scotty." Cathy said, then she went for my ribs.

After we got all the groceries loaded into the S.U.V., Cathy strapped 
me and Ricky into our car seats, then we headed for home.

"Cathy, I'm." Ricky started to say.

"HUNGRY." Cathy and I said in unison.

"Yup." Ricky said then smiled.

After we got, Ricky and I helped Cathy take the groceries into the 
apartment and put them away.

"What do you monkeys want for lunch?"

Scettieos." Ricky answered.

"Pheasant under glass Cathy and a nice tossed green salad." I said.

"You want spaghetti O's Scotty?"

"Okay."

As Ricky and me put the rest of the groceries away, Cathy opened up the 
can and poured the spaghetti O's into a bowl, then she put the bowl 
into the microwave oven.

"It's almost one o'clock Cathy. I wonder where my mom is?"

"Maybe it's in the note on the refrigerator." Cathy said as she looked 
at the note.

"Well what did she say Cathy?"

Cathy got thr note and read it, then she said," "She said she was 
running late and went to get her hair done, she will be home as soon as 
possible, and she loves you Scotty."

"Can we eat yet Cathy?"

"In a few minutes Ricky."

When the bell rang on the microwave oven, Ricky was quickly there 
holding his bowl . I got the potato chips and Cheetos out of the 
cupboard and put the bags down on the counter. As I got my bowl, Ricky 
shot past me pausing long enough to grab a fistful of Cheetos then he 
ran into the living room and sat down on the couch.

"Looks like my little bro wasn't as hungry as I thought or he would 
have grabbed the bag of Cheetos and taken it with him."

As I held my bowl Cathy poured the rest of the spaghetti O's into it, 
then I got a paper plate and put some Cheetos on it and joined Ricky on 
the couch.

"Hold on you two until I get the bibs tied around your necks." Cathy 
said as she put the bib onto Ricky.

After Cathy tied the bib around my neck, I started shoveling the 
spaghetti O's into my mouth. By the time I had the sixth spoonful in my 
mouth, Ricky was finishing his spaghetti O's.

"Cathy!�Watch out. Ricky's heading for the kitchen an he still looks 
real hungry."

"Am not."

"Are too."

"Not!"

"Okay you guys�Scotty are you almost finished?"

I quickly shoveled the last few spoonfuls into my mouth, then said, 
"Just finished Cathy."

I went to the kitchen and Cathy was waiting for me with the wet towel 
in her hand. As I put my bowl into the sink, Cathy wiped my face, then 
my hands.

"Cathy, where is Bill gonna have his bachelors party at tonight?"

"Mr. Jordan is holding the party for Bill at his home. That reminds me 
I got to get the picture of you and Ricky over to Mr. Jordan's house 
sometime this afternoon."

"Can we see the pictures now Cathy?"

"Sure Scotty. You and Ricky stay here and I'll be right back."

Cathy grabbed her keys and went to the S.U.V. to get the pictures. I 
looked at Ricky and he looked at me then the wrestling match was on. As 
Cathy came back into the apartment, Ricky and me quickly separated and 
tried to look innocent.

"Can we see it now?" Ricky asked.

Cathy set the pictures down on the couch, then she opened up the brown 
paper wrapping carefully and held up the picture for Ricky and me to 
see. It was the picture of me and Ricky mooning the camera, and at the 
bottom of the picture it said, 'Have fun now Bill because the end is 
near.'

"I started laughing as I read it, then said, "I get it Cathy. Tomorrow 
is Bill's last day of freedom, RIGHT?"

"You got it Scotty."

Cathy put the picture down and opened up the next one, and it was a 
picture of me, kneeling naked in front of the mountain scenery and my 
pee pee was covered by a fig leaf. I went over to get a closer look and 
saw the fig leaf wasn't painted on but it was moveable. I raised the 
fig leaf and I saw my pee pee.

"Cathy that's embarrassing!"

"Only Bill and your mom will ever see this picture Scotty."

Ricky went over and raised the fig leaf, then he said, "I saw Scotty's 
pee pee too."

"Cathy, you swear that no one will see the picture besides my mom and 
Bill?"

"I'll make sure Scotty. You will look back at this when you are older 
and realize how cute this picture is."

"I hope my kids never see it, if I ever have kids."

Cathy showed us the last picture and it showed me and Ricky sitting 
with our legs crossed and Cathy was in the middle. Under the picture it 
said, 'To Bill and Jeanne with love.'

"I like that picture Cathy." I said.

"Yeah cause your pee pees not showing Scotty. That's why" Ricky said.

"Well Scotty, are you ready to practice walking me down the aisle?"

"I think I need a change first Cathy."

"What about you Ricky?" Cathy asked as she felt his crotch.

Ricky started to shake his head no until he saw Cathy's face, then he 
shook his head yes slowly.

'Okay you guys, into the bedroom for a quick change."

Ricky and me raced each other to my room and I got to the dresser right 
before Ricky. I climbed up onto the dresser and laid back.

"I think I will put the sport diapers on you two. Its still hot outside 
and maybe we can get in a little swimming in after we practice walking 
down the aisle Scotty."

"Can I watch cartoons while you show Scotty?"

"Sorry Ricky but I have to show you how to show the people to their 
seats and a few other things."

"You mean I gotta WORK tomorrow?"

"Kinda bro. You will be the most important person before the wedding. 
It will be your job to make sure everyone is seated before the wedding 
can start. What do you think would happen if everyone was standing all 
over the place? We would never get the wedding started."

As I laid there, I watched Ricky fold his arms across his stomach then 
he puffed up his chest. Ricky felt good about himself now.

"Okay Scotty spread your legs so I can take your sun suit off you."

I brought my knees up slightly then spread my knees so Cathy could 
unsnap my crotch, then I sat up as Cathy took the sun suit off me. As I 
laid back down, Cathy unfastened the diaper and slipped it out from 
under me. She took out a baby wipe and wiped my penis, crotch and my 
rear. Cathy picked up the sport diaper, unfolded it then she raised my 
rear and slipped the diaper underneath me. She sprinkled baby powder 
onto her hand then she rubbed it onto my butt, crotch and penis. I 
started giggling thinking about the picture of me with the fig leaf 
covering up my privates.

"What are you giggling about Scotty?"

"Nothing."

Cathy pulled the diaper up between my legs snugly then she taped the 
rear to the front.

"Okay Scotty, I want you to hop down and find your GOOD black shoes and 
put them on."

"Why?"

"If I'm going to teach you how to walk your mom down the aisle, I want 
you to be wearing the shoes you will be wearing tomorrow so you are 
used to them."

I climbed down off the table and ran to the closet and looked for my 
good black shoes.

Ricky climbed up onto the dresser and laid back, then he watched me as 
I searched the closet.

"Find the shoes yet Scotty?"

"I found the one shoe string an I'm following it."

Cathy took the sun suit off of Ricky then she took his diaper off him.

"Cathy I found one of them."

"Find the other one Scotty. I would hate to see you walk down the aisle 
wearing only one shoe."

"I wanna see him walk down wearing only a diaper." Ricky said as he 
held his rear up.

"How about if you seat the people tomorrow wearing only a diaper little 
bro?"

"NO WAY!"

I found the other shoe Cathy."

"Okay Scotty, get a pair of socks then put your shoes on while I finish 
diapering Ricky."

I went over to the dresser and got a pair of socks then I sat down on 
my bed and put my shoes on. As I finished fastening the Velcro straps 
on my shoes, Cathy finished diapering Ricky.

"Okay Cathy I finished. What do you want me to do with the socks now?"

"What?"

"You told me to get some socks and then told me to put my shoes on." I 
said as I stood up and proudly displayed one sock in each hand to 
Cathy.

"I meant put your socks on SCOTTY and then your shoes you little 
monkey!"

"Oh. You got to learn to be more spe...specific Cathy."

"I'm going to tickle the daylights out of you SCOTTY. Is that spe cific 
enough for you?"

"No...When?"

"NOW!"

Cathy was all over me tickling my ribs and knees. I rolled back and 
forth on the floor trying to stay away from her deadly fingers.

"Hey what bout me?" Ricky asked from the dresser.

"You know I would never tickle my little bro when he's still on the 
dresser." Cathy said as she pulled the safety strap over his stomach 
and fastened it together.

"Or would I?" Cathy added.

Ricky tried to roll away from Cathy's fingers but he was trapped on the 
dresser.

"Okay guys its time we got down to work�Scotty, I want to start with 
you as soon as you get your SOCKS on then your SHOES."

I put my socks on then my shoes as Cathy unfastened the safety belt and 
then picked up Ricky and carried him into the living room. When I got 
to the living room, Cathy was waiting for me. As I walked in, Cathy 
looked at me then she started giggling.

"What you laughing at Cathy?"

"You would look so cute like that tomorrow Scotty, black socks and 
shoes and your cute diaper. You would be the best-dressed baby at the 
wedding.

I looked down to my diaper, then down to my shoes and laughed.

"Think anyone would notice my shoes need to be polished Cathy?"

"No Scotty they would be looking only at your bright smile."

"I'd be looking at his cute diaper." Ricky said.

"Let's get started Scotty. Now this is a walk and not a race. Um, I 
want you to pretend that you just got some money and you have to give 
it all to Ricky. How would you walk over to him?"

I pretended that I had the money in my hand and I walked over to Ricky 
real slow.

"That's it Scotty. Now remember that." Cathy said, then she took my 
hand and held it.

"Now Scotty, we take one step, pause, then we take another step, and 
pause again and so on."

Cathy led me over to one side of the living room, then we started 
walking down the aisle. As I looked up, I imaged I saw the minister 
standing there holding his bible, and then I looked at his face, and he 
was smiling, and his eyes were sparkling as we walked towards him. Just 
as we reached him�

"Scotty�.Scotty, I think we should turn around now and try it again." 
Cathy said breaking my wishful thought.

Cathy and me practiced a few more times, then she said, "You did that 
perfectly Scotty. Are you sure you haven't done this before?"

Only in my dreams of Cathy I thought, then I said, "Nope just saw it on 
TV lots of times that's all."

"Ricky it's your turn now."

Ricky got up off the couch and went over to Cathy as I sat down. Cathy 
showed Ricky how to bow, than take her hand and how to led her to a 
seat. After Ricky practiced that a few times, Cathy picked Ricky up and 
hugged him.

"It looks like you two are ready for tomorrow. You two did such a good 
job�"

I heard the front door open then my mommy walked in. I got up and ran 
over to her, took one leap, then I was in her arms hugging her.

"Do you like my hair or did you miss me baby?"

"I missed you mommy.'

"I see you are already dressed for tomorrow sweetheart."

"Nope I gotta put on a tie then I'll be all dressed for tomorrow 
mommy."

"Jeanne, I have your wedding gown and the boys' suits out in the S.U.V. 
If you watch them I will run out and get them."

"Okay Cathy."

Cathy picked up the keys and then headed out the door.

"What have you two boys been up to besides no good."

"We have been practicing for tomorrow."

"An how did you do Ricky?"

"He did real good mommy. Cathy taught him how to help the people get to 
their seats."

"And is my baby ready for tomorrow?"

"I don't know mommy."

"What's the matter sweetheart?"

"Well�I'm getting a dad but then I'll be losing having you all to me."

"You will always be first on my list baby. Nothing will ever change 
that."

"Won't Bill get mad?"

"I know Bill would never want it any other way." my mom said then she 
pick me up and held me tightly.

There was a knock at the door, and I thought it was Cathy playing 
around.

"You took your keys with you Cathy when you left. Don't you know how to 
use them?" I said as I turned to look at the door.

"It's not Cathy young man, it's uncle Fred."

"Uncle Fred! What you doing here?" I said as I ran over to him and 
jumped up into his arms.

"I thought I would stop by and offer my best wishes to your mother 
Scotty."

"Mr. Jordan, please come in." my mom said.

"I thought I would stop by and see if there was anything you need 
Jeanne, I mean for the wedding."

"Oh, hi Mr. Jordan." Cathy said after she walked into the apartment.

"Cathy, please call me Fred, uncle Fred, even 'hey you' sounds so much 
better then Mr. Jordan."

"Okay I will�Fred."

"I see your still around Cathy. I thought Scotty would have driven you 
to take a much needed sabbatical by now."

"Not sweet obnoxious Scotty."

"I ain't ob noxious uncle Fred."

"Am not Scotty."

"See you agree with me uncle Fred."

Mr. Jordan thought for a moment, then Cathy said, "He gets me that way 
at least two times a week Fred."

"Scotty's sure good at manipulating words isn't he?"

"That's Scotty�Oh Fred, can I get you to take a picture over to the 
bachelor party tonight. It is a gift to Bill from Scotty, Ricky, and 
myself for Bill."

"Sure Cathy I will as long as it's not nude and two legged. We don't 
want Bill getting second thoughts about the wedding do we?"

"I have to admit that it is a nude Fred, but I will let you make the 
decision weather it is appropriate for Bill's party.' Cathy said as she 
picked up the picture and started unwrapping it.

"Cathy! We do have little boys here." my mom said.

Cathy just smiled, then she turned the picture and showed it to uncle 
Fred, and my mom.

Uncle Fred looked at it, then a chuckle came out followed by 
uncontrollable laughter. My mom couldn't stop giggling as she looked at 
Ricky's and my bare butts.

"You two boys look sooo cute and adorable in the picture. Bill will 
love it." my mommy said.

"Cathy just told us to turn around an smile at the camera mommy." Uncle 
Fred broke out laughing again and Cathy and my mom giggled.

"Sure Cathy, I'll take it to the party and I'll make sure it is placed 
in a prominent spot."

"Thank you very much Fred. That will save me a trip over to your house. 
I just picked up Jeanne's gown for her. Maybe you would like to stick 
around and see how she looks in it?"

"I'm sorry but I just meant to stop by for a moment. If she looks this 
beautiful right now, she will look fabulous tomorrow�and with Scotty 
promoting the sport diaper the way he's dressed now at tomorrows 
wedding, I better get ready for all the new orders that will be coming 
in."

"I'm not going like this uncle Fred, I'm wearing pants!"

"Oh I didn't know that Scotty." uncle Fred said, then he winked at me.

"Yes you did." I said then I jumped back up into his arms. I hugged 
uncle Fred as he hugged me, then he gave me a kiss on my forehead, and 
I kissed him back.

"Well I better be going now and have a good day."

After uncle Fred left, my mom and Cathy went into my mom's bedroom so 
my mom could try on the wedding gown. Ricky and me sat down on the 
couch and watched cartoons until the commercial came on, then we 
started wrestling.

"Okay you two�Who wants to see the prettiest bride to be in the 
valley?"

Before the last word left Cathy's lips, I flew past her and into my 
mom's bedroom. I stood there watching my mommy looking at herself in 
the mirror.

"How do I look baby?" my mommy said as she noticed me standing there.

"If Bill don't marry you I sure will mommy."

"Okay Scotty, now you may walk your mom out into the living room." 
Cathy said.

I walked over to my mom, took her hand in mine, then I walked her out 
to the living room like Cathy and I had practiced earlier.

Cathy got the cameras, and as I stood there beside my mommy, Cathy took 
picture after picture. I stood there proud to be holding my mommy's 
hand, even though I was not wearing my best clothes.

"Jeanne, you look like you could use some time to yourself before the 
party tonight. I'll take these two outside for a swim so you can 
relax."

"WHAT party?" I asked.

"Your mom is having a bachelorette party tonight Scotty."

"Can we come?" Ricky asked.

"I don't think you want to go to that Ricky. There will only be girls 
there an they like pinching our cheeks." I said.

"I don't wanna go." Ricky said.

"Where are they having it Cathy?"

"Here Scotty."

"Where are we gonna be Cathy?"

"I thought I would order a pizza and then we could play some board 
games up in my apartment."

"That sounds like a good idea Cathy. Thank you very much for watching 
Scotty tonight."

"Just make sure that you throw the bouquet to me after the wedding 
Jeanne."

"Deal."

"What game we gonna play?"

"We will have to see what I have in the closet Scotty."

I sat down on the couch, and then Cathy took my shoes and socks off my 
feet, then I raced Ricky over to the door.

"Cathy, are you going swimming with us?"

"No Scotty, I thought I would watch you two."

I opened the door and ran to the pool gate with Cathy and Ricky 
following me.
