Gap Year - Chapter 10 (Patreon)

Danielle only had a few minutes to scheme this time, squirming in the corner in her soggy diaper, sucking away on her new pacifier. In a way, she felt more vulnerable and babyish than ever, knowing it was her former classmate, Vivien, who had done this to her; in another, she felt almost grown-up, trying to work out her plan for revenge.

Of course, there wasn't going to be a whole lot she was able to do now, not when she was stuck in time-out. It also wasn't much of a punishment, however, not when it went by so fast, as she played out different scenarios in her mind, debating on which was the most realistic. Almost before she realized, she heard footsteps approaching, and the sound of her little sister's voice.

"Dani!" she gasped. "What did you do?"

Of course she took Vivien's side... Dani couldn't exactly blame her for that. She didn't know anything about the girls' history, saw her as nothing more than a babysitter. And, in her eyes, babysitters were adults, a term that hadn't applied to Danielle for months.

"Yes, Dani," Vivi marched up to her, pulling out the pacifier. "What did you do? And did you learn your lesson?"

Danielle automatically found herself nibbling on her bottom lip, hating how much she missed the paci. It was something she'd never dealt with before, the workers at daycare always apparently assuming she'd outgrown it, but now that she'd had a few minutes with it, she already could see why babies loved them so much.

"I-I told some fibs," she mumbled, "a-and I wasn't very polite to our sitter..."

"What did you fib about?" Vivien pushed.

Dani glared up at her, annoyed, then sighed, seeing that wasn't going to do her any good. "A-About my diaper being wet," she admitted.

"Maybe she didn't know!" Tessa came to her rescue. "She has accidents all the time!"

Danielle knew she meant it in a good way, to show that Dani might not have been misbehaving, but she saw Vivien smirk, hearing even her baby sister talk about how bad her potty training had gotten. "Oh, I think she knew," she said, "this time. Now, what do you have to say for yourself, Dani?"

"I-I'm very sorry," Danielle sniffled, staring up at Vivi... Though, true to her suspicions, not nearly as far up as she'd expected, and, right next to her, Dani could see that the soles of her sneakers looked awfully thick. "I-I should show you more respect, because you're the babysitter, a-and I definitely shouldn't be telling lies."

"Very good," Vivien patted her on the head, slipping the paci back between her lips. "I'll let you go with that... But don't think I'll go this easy on you all the time, little lady! I have lots of punishments thought up if you step out of line!"

Dani gulped, suckling on the pacifier's nipple once more, at the perfect time. That was the biggest obstacle for her plan... Vivi had total control over her, could punish her for any and every thing she wanted... If she saw through Danielle's machinations, she could make her life pretty miserable. "Yes, ma'am," she burbled obediently around the paci.

"Good girl," she gave Dani another condescending pat on the head, turning her around to face the corner again. "You stay here while I get your sister set up with some breakfast, to let the lesson sink in, and then I'll be back to get you ready for the day."

"B-But..!" Danielle whined, almost stomping her foot at how unfair that was, to make her go back to time-out for no reason. She was glad she didn't, however, since even one word was enough to earn her a whap on the bottom. It wasn't enough to hurt, not through the padding, yet it was definitely harder than the swat she'd been given earlier, enough to come close to qualifying as a full-blown spank.

"What was that?" Vivien asked.

"N-Nothing, ma'am," Dani shook her head, the threat obvious. She'd only gotten a couple spankings, and just one that had really hurt at all, the very first one... None had been in front of Tessa, though, and she didn't want the first one of those to come from Vivien, of all people. She didn't want it to happen at all, of course, but certainly not from her! "S-Sorry..."

"That's what I thought," Vivi smirked. "Come on, Tessa."

As they walked away, Dani heard her sister say, "You have to be nice to her, you know! She's just a baby!"

It was very sweet, and also embarrassing, having her little sister stand up for her like that. "I know," Vivien replied. "But she's a much bigger baby than you were, before you became a big girl, so sometimes it takes a little extra discipline to help her learn to be good. Do you understand?" 

Danielle's ears didn't pick up a response, although, since the conversation didn't continue that she could overhear, she suspected it was a nod. Vivi was the babysitter after all... She knew best, at least in Tessa's eyes.

"All right," Vivien finally reappeared, with another, lighter pat to Dani's exposed padding. "Let's go get this taken care of."

Danielle nodded, allowing herself to be led back to her room, sucking a little harder on her new paci as Vivi ripped open her diaper, started to change her, hating to be so exposed in front of her, but knowing she didn't have a choice.

"Nice and dry!" Vivi commented, taping the new diaper into place, giving it a loud, crinkly rub. "But for how long?"

The only response she could honestly have was a shrug; not even she could guess that. No doubt, she'd be dribbling in no time, though it was impossible to know when it would start, when she'd notice, when it would be detectable from the outside... She had no more of an answer than any toddler would have.

"What should we dress you up in today?" Vivien asked, going to the closet. It wasn't a question of what Dani wanted to wear, she noted... The sitter opened up the door, gasping in delight at all the childish outfits hanging there, waiting. "These are so cute!"

"Uh-huh," Dani agreed, toddling up a little closer to make it a bit easier to understand her around the pacifier. "They are, aren't they?"

She was facing away, but she was positive she saw a hint of pink on Vivi's cheeks. "For a baby like you, obviously," she added. "Some of us like to dress like the adults we are... Then again, some of us are potty trained, too. Speaking of, do your diapers even fit under these leggings?"

She pulled out a pair of pink leggings, decorated with sparkles and butterflies, holding them up to Danielle's puffy waist. "There's no way," she shook her head. "Are these from when you were pretending to be a big girl?" She didn't wait for an answer, kneeling down, holding them open. "Step in! I want to see how far we can get these up."

Before all this, Danielle wouldn't have been caught dead in them, but she didn't say anything, obediently feeding her feet in, letting Vivien pull them up, working them over her diaper. "Oh, my God!" she squealed, clapping her hands, seeing how obvious the diaper bulge was beneath them, how much of the plastic waistband stuck up over the top. "Those are so cute! You're definitely wearing them!"

She paired them with a bright, cheery yellow top, one with a ruffled bottom hem that barely reached the waistband of the leggings. Dani had mostly worn the leggings under dresses, if it was a nice day and she knew she'd be running around and playing outside a lot, never as just pants... Though, to be fair, it wasn't like seeing her diaper through them was going to come as a shock to anyone at the daycare.

"Thank you," she made herself say, after Vivi tied her hair up with a pair of pink ribbons, and slid Velcro sneakers on her feet. She wouldn't have chosen it for herself, but she needed to stay on Vivien's good side as much as possible.

"You are so welcome!" Vivi booped her on the nose. "You know, you actually look like you belong in daycare, seeing you like this... I cannot believe I ever let you get away with bullying me."

'Bullying' seemed like a strong term for what Dani had done, though she wasn't going to argue the point now. "I-I'm sorry about that," she mumbled.

"I bet you are," Vivien said. "I almost feel bad for how much I'm going to be bullying you... Almost. Except your Mommy told me how you did all this to yourself, so you deserve everything I have in mind for..." She jabbed at Dani's diaper, a chuckle cutting her off mid-sentence. "Dani! Are you wet again already?"

Danielle shifted in place, sure enough feeling a damp spot, starting to nod. She'd taken too long, however, Vivien slipping her hand into her legging for a better feel, confirming it for herself. "Jeez, are you going for the record or something?" Vivi teased. "Well, I hope those last until you get to daycare, because I'm not changing you so soon."

Dani nodded meekly, Vivien squeezing the diaper one more time before pulling her hand free from the other girl's pants. "I'd almost feel bad for you if this was some kind of medical thing, but it's all your fault... So I don't have to feel guilty about how funny this is. I always knew you were a dumb, whiny, little baby, this just proves I was right."

Danielle stopped herself from trying to fight back, toddling along behind the girl to the dining room for breakfast. Things weren't looking good for her, no... But she'd seen the way Vivi had looked at some of her dresses, and it made her all the more certain that, with time, her plan was going to work. She just had to survive long enough to put it into action...
