The Story of David Mayter (2004)

Entry 02: Plan into Action

 

“I woke up this day having strange dreams, like usual. It was strange…almost seemed like it really happened. But then again, I guess it really did. Well not all of it…I didn’t really go swimming, but I certainly got wet.”

 

David slowly opened his eyes, and found himself in his room, in his bed, wrapped in his blanket. At first, however, he was a bit confused, due to the change in state of mind. But he quickly regained conscious, and found that it was real early morning, around 7AM to be exact. He rubbed his eyes, and looked around at the dim-lit walls, until he finally sat up on the side of his bed. He yawned deeply, and then, he stood up, and walked towards his computer. He looked browsed around without sitting down on his computer for a bit.

 

“No new e-mails…no new messages…” David said to himself, in a deep tone from waking up.

 

David shrugged a bit, but then turned around and looked at himself in the mirror. Nothing different than yesterday, just like he went to sleep in, he wasn’t wearing any pajamas, wasn’t wearing boxers, but he wasn’t naked either. He kind of smirked as he starred at himself in the mirror, wearing nothing but a white, puffy, pull-up diaper. He quickly took a finger and stuck it about an inch or two into the front of his diaper.

 

“Hmm…wet…” David whispered to himself.

 

He sighed, shrugged, and turned around towards his closet. After opening the door, and digging through his closet a bit, he eventually turned around, holding a fresh and unused diaper, along with a thing of baby powder, and also a box of baby wipes. From there, he walked over to his bed, and placed the powder and the wipes onto his bed. Then, after his hands were free, he tore the sides of his diaper, letting it fall to the floor. Then, he took a few baby wipes from the box, and wiped his area, slightly wincing from the cold from the wipe. Then, once he was finished wiping himself, he dropped it into the used diaper, and snagged the baby powder. From there, he applied it to and around his diaper area, then clapped his hands a bit. Finally, he tossed the baby powder on the bed, then, took the fresh diaper, and put it on.

 

“Yeah…I’m going to tell him today…” David said confidently to himself.

 

“…I hope” he finished, looking at himself in the mirror.

“Hey Sven” David said into the phone.

 

“Hey David, wassup?” Sven responded.

 

“Not too much, just woke up a few hours ago. You free today?’ David asked.

 

“Sure am.” Sven said.

 

“Good, good…so you want to do anything later on today?” David said.

 

“Of course’ Sven said.

 

“Rock on…so you when you aloud?” David asked.

 

There was a quick pause before Sven responded…

 

“…I can leave as I’m done doing chores and taking a shower” Sven said.

 

“Alright, well, just come on down whenever you can.” David said.

 

“Okay, I’ll be sure to!” Sven said.

 

“Hey, you know what, give me a call when you leave” David added.

 

“Okay, no problem” Sven assured.

 

“Alright man, see you in a few” David said.

 

“Alright, later” Said Sven.

 

“Later” David finished.

 

And with that, David hung up the phone, and looked up at the clock.

 

“11:30AM” he said to himself.

 

“Guess I have time to chat” he added. Then, he quickly walked into his room, and before he knew it, he was sitting in front of his computer monitor.

 

---

 

“Hey” said David in the chat window.

 

“Hey” replied someone online, their alias ‘PaciMat067’

 

“What’s up?” David asked PaciMat067.

 

“Not too much…you?” he replied.

 

“Not too much, just waiting for Sven to get back here” David said.

 

“Sounds fun” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Heh, I’ve had more” David joked.

 

There was silence for a few minutes…

 

“…so, did you ever get the paci’s?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“As a matter of fact, I did” David instantly answered.

 

“Awesome! How do you like them?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“Dude, I can’t tell you how much I love them” David said.

 

“Ha-ha, I knew you’d love them. How did the trip go?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“It was Hell…” David began.

 

“How so?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“It just was…first I had to wait in the front of the store, trying to build up confidence and ‘balls’. Then once I was inside the store, I had to wait in the back, waiting for some kids I know to get out. Then I had to wait in line for a while, and then the cashier took a few double-takes as I gave them to her…but she was nice. Then once I got out, I had to hide behind a dirt-mound to avoid anyone seeing me put them in my backpack” David explained.

 

“Could have been worse” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Too true man, too true” David replied.

 

“But luckily, things didn’t end up worse” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Yeah…aside from my own paranoia and impatient habits, the trip went smooth” David finally concluded.

 

“Well, I’m glad things worked out well like that” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Me too…yeah…how about you? How have you been?” David said.

 

“Me? I’ve been better…but then again, I’ve been worse. Can’t complain.” PaciMat067

 

“Same…” David said.

 

There, once again, was a short-timed silence.

 

“So…how’s Sven?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“Sven? He’s been…fine. Why?” David asked.

 

“I dunno, just asking. Just making conversation =)” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Oh okay. Yeah, he’s fine.” David said.

 

“Glad to hear it. So are you going to tell him about your diapers?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“Well, I’m going to try. I backed out yesterday. I just didn’t build up enough ‘balls’ to explain to him that I wear them” David explained.

 

“I understand. Hey, I’m 110% sure that he’ll understand. Heck, you two have been friends for years and years. Just be sure to explain to him that you’re incontinent. But a quick pointer for you: I wouldn’t recommend telling him about being a teen baby. Not yet.” PaciMat067 explained.

 

“Yeah, very true…” David said.

 

“Oh wait, hold on. The phone is ringing, brb” David said.

 

David quickly pulled himself from the computer monitor, and the conversation with this ‘PaciMat067’. He turned, and quickly answered the phone.

 

“Hello?” David answered.

 

“Hey man, it’s Sven. I’m aloud out now, should I just come on down now?” Sven asked.

 

“Yeah man, just come on down. We’ll be expecting you” David said.

 

“Alright man, see you in a bit” Sven said.

 

“Same, later” David finished.

 

Quickly, the two hung up. David returned to the monitor, and the conversation with ‘PaciMat067’.

 

“Was that Sven?” PaciMat067 asked.

 

“Yeah, he’s gonna be down soon” David explained.

 

“Oh, alright” PaciMat067 said.

 

“Hey, I have to shower, and change…or vice-versa” David explained.

”I gotta go” David finally finished.

 

“Alright man, I’ll see you” PaciMat067 said.

 

And with that, David clicked a few things, and walked away from his computer.

“Hey Sven” David said, now standing in the doorway to his house.

 

“Hey man…hey, did you just take a shower?” Sven asked.

 

“Well…yeah, actually, I did” David admitted, letting Sven in.

 

The two walked up David’s steps, into his house.

 

“Why? We’re about to go outside” Sven said.

 

“Uh…well…didn’t exactly think of that one!” David said, dumbfounded and laughing.

 

“Dumbass” Sven said, laughing.

 

The two laughed a bit, but suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

 

“Hold up” David said, walking back down the steps.

 

“It’s Jason” he said, peaking out of the door’s windows.

 

“Oh yeah…forgot to tell you. Jason saw me, and I told him to come along” Sven explained.

 

“Oh…oh…okay…” David said, sounding quite disappointed. With Jason along, David couldn’t explain to Sven about his wearing diapers.

 

“Well let him in!” Sven said.

 

“…this is my house” David said.

 

“I know, I was just messing around” Sven explained.

 

David fake laughed, turned around, and opened the door. Behind it laid another kid, around the same age as Sven and David.

 

“Hey man” Jason said.

 

“Hey, what’s up?” David said.

 

“Just enduring this heat” Jason replied.

 

“Well, come on in” Sven, of all people, said.

 

“Alright” Jason said, walking on in.

 

Before David knew it, the two were up his stairs, and around the corner.

 

“Oh hey guys!” he heard his mom say.

 

“Hey Ms. Mayter!” he heard Sven say.

 

“Sure guys, make yourselves at home” David whispered to himself, still holding the door open, still looking outside.

 

---

 

The three now sat patiently in David’s fan-less living room, enduring the heat.

 

“What’s there to do?” Sven asked.

 

“I don’t know…we could go back into the woods…or…something I really can’t think of” David said.

 

“We could…hey! Who brought their bikes?” Sven said, raising his hand.

 

“Me” Jason said.

 

“Well…I live here…so yeah, I have my bike” David said, speaking up.

 

“Awesome! I say we go ride our bikes!” Sven said.

 

“Okay” everyone had agreed.

 

“Where at?” Jason asked.

 

“Don’t care” Sven said.

 

---

 

Now, they were all sitting in a park, on a bench. Their bikes were parked elsewhere.

 “So…this did us a lot of good” Jason said.

”Shut up” Sven said.

”I mean, we left David’s house, which had a couch, cable TV –“ Jason ranted, but was cut off.


”Shuddup!” Sven said again.

 

David simply chuckled at Jason and Sven.

”So David, what do you think we should do?” Sven asked.

”Um…anything besides sitting here” David said, looking at the basketball court.

”Why?” Jason asked.

”There, you see that kid in the grey t-shirt and the black and white shorts?” David asked.

”Yeah, so?” Jason asked. Suddenly Sven laughed evilly.

”That’s Ryan” Sven said.

”…yeah…” David finished.

”He’s an asshole” David finished. “Just looking at him makes me nervous.”

 

“Pfft, man, he won’t mess with us” Jason said.

”No, but I’m gonna go mess with him” Sven said, smirking, as he stood up from the bench.

”Dude, don’t fuck with him” David said, standing up.

”Why? Well, I’m going to. You two can stand by and watch, leave, or come with me” Sven said

”I ain’t coming, fuck, we have enough problems with him and his little crew, and for once he isn’t messing with us. Leave him alone” David commanded. Sven stood for a bit, debating whether or not he should uselessly mess with Ryan.

”Come on guys, we’ve got nothing better to do!” Sven said with a devilish grin.

”No, dude, seriously, don’t.” David said.

“Alright, fine. Pussies, I’ll just sit here on my ass and let us be bored” Sven said aggravated as he sat back down.

”Yeah dude, you’re the master of our fate” David said sarcastically.

”Huh?” Sven grunted out confused.

”Never mind…” David quietly replied.

---

”I hate it when Sven acts like that…he thinks that, just because in his life, he suffered a little misfortune, he should spread it around like a virus. I could care less what he wants to do to himself, but he doesn’t have to bring me into it. Well…that’s not true…he’s my friend, and I want him to stay that way. And I want us to stay friends, because when we’re alone with each other, we’re so cool with each other. It’s when he’s around other people, like Jason for example, that he acts up. Always one for the spot light, always was.”

---

”Alright, I’ll see you later Jason” Sven said as Jason road off on his bike. It was now sunset and Jason had to be in by dinner, like always.

”Hey Sven, got a minute?” David asked as he opened his front door.

”Of course…I don’t have to be home for a half-hour” he explained.

”Alright man, anything you want to drink?” David kindly asked as he walked Sven into his house.

”Naw man, I’m cool. Thanks” Sven replied as the two finally made it to the top of the steps.

”You sure?” David asked nervously. He was trying to make Sven as comfortable as possible, because he was going to tell him, and if he was ever going to, he was going to now.

”Yeah man, I’m cool…why?” Sven asked as the two were walking through his dining room.

”Sorry man, just trying to be cool…” David replied quickly. There was a long silence as they walked past the kitchen, around the next corner, and eventually into David’s room.

David quickly sat down on his computer chair, as Sven sat down onto his nearby bed.

”Sven, we’re really good friends, right?” David asked.

 

“Yeah…I’d like to think so. Why? You did this yesterday” Sven said.

 

“I know, sorry about that…I’ve just meaning to tell you something…something regarding me personally, that I am entrusting you with” David explained. Sven was silent through the whole thing…

”Anyways, Sven, what I am about to tell you is secret. Not the simple gossip kind of secret, I mean, a deep, dark secret. Something that if anyone found out, I don’t know what I could do…and because you are my friend, my only true friend that I’ve known for so long, and know I can trust, I am confident that I won’t be making a mistake by telling you.” David continued.

”Um…okay…well, whatever man…I mean, I won’t tell anyone anything, promise.” Sven said.

”Okay, well…it’s rather difficult for me to explain…” David began…

”Everyone is different. We look different, act different, sound different…we know different things, say and sing different things, WEAR different things, and so on…” David explained, emphasizing ‘wear’.

”I know this is basically what my mom explained to me when I was a little kid” Sven said.

”For example, some people sing scat music…some people wear piercing, tattoos, baggier clothes, short clothes…diapers…” David said, ignoring what Sven said.

”Diapers? Where the heck did that come from?” Sven asked confused.

 

David bit his lower lip…”Well, some people wear diapers, I mean, they often can’t help it” David explained.

 

“I know, why?” Sven said.

 

“You asked where that came from, and it’s an item of clothing” David explained some more.

”Yeah, I guess you’re right…I mean, some people really can’t help it” Sven finished.

 

“Yeah…and uh…Sven…I happen…to be one of those people” David said under his breath, but just loud enough for Sven to hear.

Sven just starred at David blankly for a short period of time, confused, and taken off-guard. “…what?” is all he could say.

 

“Sven, I wear diapers. I am incontinent. I have no control, and never have since the day I was born.” David explained.

 

“…you’re serious, aren’t you?” Sven asked, still not sure.

”Yes Sven, to my misfortune, I am serious” David said.

”…so you’re wearing a diaper…right now?” he asked.

 

“As we speak and as we have spoken in the past” David concluded.

 

“…so…you like…actually…-“ Sven began, but was cut off by David.


”Yes” he said.

 

“Well, what about school? I mean, that stuff never happens. I’ve seen you go to the bathroom all the time!” Sven said.

 

“I’m not completely incontinent…just sometimes I can’t control it, sometimes I can…depending on how bad I have to go” he explained.

 

“Well…what part of you is incontinent?” Sven asked.

 

“I have bladder incontinence” David responded.

 

“Oh…that sucks…but it could be worse” Sven said, jokingly.

 

“Ha-ha, yeah…I guess things could be” David admitted.

 

“Hey, man. I tell you what…I’ve got to go now, I have to head home and I want to get there before it’s completely dark outside.” Sven said.

 

“Okay” David replied.

 

“Hey man, I seriously won’t tell anyone anything” Sven said reassuringly.

 

“Okay man…I seriously trust you with this” David responded.

 

“Worry-free my friend” Sven said, and with that, he left…

---

”So I did it…I had finally told him. And you know what? It feels pretty good…I’m glad. I really am confident that I can trust him…we’ve been friends for so long. However, I’m deathly tired…my eyes are drooping as I write the finishing words for this entry. So journal, I’m going to sleep early…hopefully tomorrow me, Sven and Jason can all go into the woods and hike, maybe hit up the BMX trails or something…I dunno…I’ll sleep on it”
