He didn’t like punishing her when she wasn’t feeling well, but it was no excuse for bad behavior.
“Hey, hey, hey.” He knelt down in front of her where she still sat upon the toilet. “What’s all this for?” he asked, wiping her cheeks free of tears.
“Daddy’s m-mad at me,” she sobbed a little bit, snuggling in as he clasped her close, rocking her.
“Shh, sweetheart, I’m not angry with you. I’m just worried about you.” He rocked her a little bit longer until she’d calmed, her sobs dying down. Pulling back from her tight grasp he grabbed some toilet paper and held a mound up to her nose.
“Blow,” he ordered, which she did, giggling softly as he made honking noises. Gathering some more paper he wiped her clean and flushed the toilet. Then leading her into the bedroom proceeded to dress her quickly. When she was ready, Sean stood back and smiled down at her, pleased with the little girl who stood before him.
Slight in build, with fine features and pale silvery blonde hair, Haley was gorgeous, both as a woman and a little girl. Dressed how she was right now, in a pink t-shirt and denim overalls with a teddy on the front, her hair resting in pigtails down her back, she looked very much like a small child.
“You are so cute, Haley-girl.” Leaning down he kissed her gently on the forehead before gathering her up in his arms. He barely noticed her slight weight as he carried her into the dining room and set a bib on her, tying it at the back of her neck.
Knowing his little girl as well as he did, Sean could sense she was deciding whether it was worth protesting over the babyish article, and waited to see what she decided. But surprisingly, she settled back and sat quietly as he dished up the oatmeal he’d prepared as she’d rested.
A mutinous look crossed her face when he sat down and spooned some up. Her lips remained firmly closed as he moved the spoonful towards her mouth.
“Haley,” he kept his voice stern, wiggling the spoon in front of her face. But she just shook her head.
Sean sighed. She needed to eat, all she’d had lately was formula, and he was worried that wasn’t healthy enough. The fibre in the oatmeal would be good for her.
“What did you promise me, little girl?” A cute frown drew her eyebrows down and he could see her thinking about her promise. If he knew her, she was trying to decide if her big girl promise applied to little girl actions.
“Haley, either you eat half of this bowl like you promised, or you will not be going to Lily’s party today.” Sean made sure his voice was very firm so she would know he was truly serious. Haley’s large brown eyes glistened with tears, but he just ignored them, waiting for her decision. Slowly her mouth opened and she ate the spoonful with a grimace.
“It’s cold,” she whined, after she’d swallowed her mouthful.
“And whose fault is that, miss?” he replied, feeding her another spoonful which she took with a glare. “And take that look off your face, young lady.”
He kept his grin hidden as she lowered her head, her posture no less defiant as he continued to feed her the now cold oatmeal. As soon as half the bowl was gone her lips clamped shut and she shook her head.
“Well, I suppose that’s better than nothing,” Sean said as he wiped her face clean. She’d managed to get a good amount of the oatmeal around her mouth and on her cheeks, even with him feeding her.
“You used to like oatmeal.” Rising, he took her plate into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle from the fridge.
“Not hungry,” she mumbled, as she stared at the bottle dubiously.
“I know, little girl, but you still have to eat.” He grabbed her hand and walked her to the sofa, waiting until she was lying on her back to hand her the bottle. “Now, you drink that while I clean up. What would you like to watch?”
“Wanna watch the wizards,” she replied immediately. Sean frowned, shaking his head.
“We’ve had this conversation before, Haley. The programme with the wizards is too old for you, choose something else.”
“No! Wizards!” Sean watched as his little girl grumpily kicked out her feet, her face screwed up determinedly as she yelled her demands. Acting quickly he grabbed her thrashing legs, and holding her ankles firmly in one hand, lifted her legs up high and landed five hard smacks on her bottom. The short spanking wouldn’t have hurt much with the denim overalls protecting her bum, but it was enough to catch her attention and the budding temper tantrum died off.
Normally, Haley wasn’t quite so naughty. But whenever she felt ill, or tired, or frustrated her behavior got worse, and lately she’d been feeling all three of those things so her behavior had been very poor indeed.
It was worsened by the fact that she had been ordered to stay away from work for at least a month. When she wasn’t being his little girl, Sean knew that his wife worried about not earning any money, about having no financial independence. But she needed time off for her health. It was also time she realised that he would always look after her, and protect her.
No matter what.
So, in order to prevent her from stressing and worrying he kept her as a little girl as much as he possibly could. Little girl’s had no reason to worry about work and money.
“Enough, young lady. Now, you’ll have to lie there and drink your bottle without any T.V.”
A whimper escaped, but he gave her a stern look and she quickly lay back sucking on her bottle. Brushing a hand across her hair he walked back into the kitchen, whistling softly.
Having a little girl could be a lot of work, but he loved it, loved her, and he wouldn’t take their relationship any other way.
Chapter Two:
“Thumper, would you like a cup of tea?” Haley looked over at her fluffy bunny, carefully pouring some ‘tea’ into a little pink tea cup. She then sat it in front of her bunny before turning to a stuffed teddy on her left.
“Teddy?”
“Five more minutes Haley, and then it’s time for a nap.”
“Not tired, Daddy,” Haley replied absently, concentrating on carefully pouring the water that Sean had put into her teapot.
“I don’t remember asking you if you were tired, little girl.” Haley didn’t bother to look over at Sean where he sat working at his desk. She continued to happily play with her toys; she was having a tea party, so of course she couldn’t leave her guests to have a nap!
“All right, Haley-girl, let’s put this stuff away before you take a nap.” Sean had moved to crouch beside her, his hand reaching out for the tea pot.
“No, Daddy,” Haley cried out, slapping his hand away. Her chin was firmly clasped between his finger and thumb, her head turned so she was staring into a pair of very stern, very firm blue eyes.
“Haley Ann, your behavior has been appalling this morning. Any more disobedience from you and you’ll find yourself going off for a nap with a very sore bottom. Do you understand me?”
Haley nodded, a lone tear tracking down her cheek as she sulkily helped Sean tidy up her toys, before following him to the bedroom. She’d never admit it but she did feel a little tired, and she tried to hide a yawn as Sean stripped her down to her t-shirt and panties.
“Right, on the toilet with you, miss,” Sean turned her, with a light slap on her rump, towards the bathroom.
“No.”
“Excuse me?” Sean’s voice was soft, a definite warning that Haley chose to ignore. Instead she stomped her foot, her face screwing up into a mutinous mask.
“I don’t need to go, Daddy!”
“Right, I can see I’ve let this go on too long.” Sean’s voice was grim which should have given her some warning, but she still let out a gasp of surprise when she found herself upended over his lap, her overalls and panties pulled down to her knees as his hand landed firmly on her unprotected cheeks.
“No Daddy, don’t!” she screamed, trying to escape, her feet kicking as she squirmed about on his lap. But his hold was unyielding; she wasn’t moving anywhere until he deemed it was time.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
/>
“Daddy, please don’t spank me! I’ll behave, I promise!” Haley screeched at the top of her voice, tears racing down her cheeks as Sean laid down the law on her poor ass. As usual he paid no attention to her pleas or promises, his hand landing again and again in a relentless rhythm than soon had her ass flaming.
Finally, when she lay limp upon his lap, her breath sawing in and out on each sob, he stopped and just rubbed her back until she quietened down a bit. Once her tears had reduced from a torrent to a mere trickle he turned her over and set her on her feet, holding her steady as she swayed.
“Are you going to behave now, miss? Or are we going to have to stay at home today instead of going to the party?”
“No, Daddy, I’ll be good!” Haley swiftly promised good behaviour, she didn’t want to miss her best friend’s birthday. She didn’t know why she was being so naughty today, even she knew it was out of character. But she was just so cranky, and tired, and just sick of being sick! She swiped tiredly at the tears on her face, making no fuss as Sean clasped her small hand in his and led her to the toilet.
The experience was a little painful as she had to sit on her swollen bottom, and Sean made her sit there for a good while before he came back to get her.
But it wasn’t until he led her back into the bedroom, and Haley saw what was on the bed, that she realised just how much she’d pushed his patience.
“No, Daddy, please,” she pleaded as he led her over to the bed. A sharp slap to her too sensitive rump had her gasping, but it induced the required response, and it was only with a small whimper that she allowed Sean to lay her on her back on the changing mat upon the bed.
“You’ve been so reluctant to go potty today that I’ve decided you obviously aren’t old enough to use the toilet, little girl.”
Haley just put her thumb in her mouth, partly for comfort, partly to keep herself out of further trouble.
Sean lifted her legs into the air, smearing diaper cream thickly on her red bottom, which was actually quite soothing. Placing a thick, disposable diaper under her bum he expertly powdered her female parts and bottom before doing her up tightly in the diaper.
“Here, sweetie, suck on this.” Sean pulled her thumb out of her mouth and replaced it with a binky, which she began to suck on contentedly. By now, she was feeling very little, and very much Daddy’s little girl.
“Okay, little girl, you go to sleep now. Here’s teddy for company.” Haley snatched up the offered stuffed toy as Sean tucked her into their bed. He then sat beside her and rubbed her head as Haley tiredly closed her eyes. Haley lay there, drifting off to sleep with her favourite teddy, a diaper firmly encasing her, and her Daddy lovingly rubbing her hair. For the first time that day, she was content.
***
Haley sucked on her binky harder as they pulled up at Lily’s house. She’d been looking forward to this party all week, had even picked out the outfit she was wearing days ago. She was wearing her favourite skirt, it was white with pretty flowers all over it, and she had a cute wee t-shirt and jacket to go with it.
She loved Lily, they were best friends. But when they played together Haley was usually a little older. Today, in diapers, with a binky, and stuck on a diet of mostly formula she felt younger than ever before, and a little anxious about how her appearance was going to be taken.
Haley had argued desperately with Sean, not wanting to go to the party in diapers. He could have at least let her to wear something a bit longer so it wasn’t so obvious that she was wearing them. But all her arguing got her was a half hour in time out, which had subsequently made them the last guests to arrive.
Oh, there would be other little boys and girls in diapers and it wasn’t as if people in their community weren’t used to adult babies. In fact, it was the norm rather than the exception, but she still couldn’t help but worry about what Lily would think.
“You’re thinking awfully hard there, sweetie.” Haley looked up in surprise, she hadn’t even noticed that Sean had gotten out of the car, let alone opened her door. He undid her seat belt and helped her out of her booster seat.
“Don’t worry so much, little girl. Everything will be fine, I promise.” Sean crouched down until he could look in her eyes. Looking at him, his blue eyes at once compassionate and concerned, Haley felt her love for him rise up deep inside her. Pulling out her binky, she threw herself into his arms, giggling slightly as he almost lost his balance in surprise.
“Love you, Daddy.” She landed a smacking kiss on his cheek as he gathered her up into his arms and stood.
“I love you too, baby girl,” he murmured back, holding her tightly.
“Now, are you ready to have some fun, hmm?” He pretended to drop her, making her squeal then giggle wildly.
“Yes, Daddy.”
“I didn’t hear you.”
“Yes, Daddy!” she yelled.
“And no more temper tantrums, right?”
“Of course not, Daddy,” Haley replied indignantly. “I’m a good girl.”
Her Daddy just snorted in disbelief.
Chapter Three:
Haley needn’t have worried about how everyone else would react, Sean thought with a loving grin as he watched his little wife/girl playing in the sand pit with Lily. Most of the adult children here were wearing diapers and they were having the time of their life.
Watching another group of kids playing tag energetically, he winced as one boy took a tumble into the dirt. As usual Lily and Haley had latched onto each other as soon as they’d arrived, and as far as he knew Lily hadn’t even mentioned the diapers Haley was so obviously wearing.
He’d have to bring her inside soon, though. She tired easily due to the anaemia, and even though she wasn’t racing around like some of the kids, he could see that even just gentle play was tiring her out.
“Ouch, that tumble looked sore.” Sean looked over at Doc Jake as he stood beside him on the porch, a beer held in one hand, before he turned to stare over at the man/child who was currently being comforted by his mummy, a woman who happened to be his much younger girlfriend.
Sean nodded. “Sometimes I don’t know where they find the energy.”
Jake nodded back. “Looking after a little girl can be tiring as hell, but it’s worth it, isn’t it?”
Sean looked over at the young doctor curiously. The sad note in his voice spoke of a painful experience, one that Sean figured he didn’t want to talk about. He quickly changed the topic.
“I’m going to be really rude and ask you some medical questions, if you don’t mind.” He tacked on the last bit as an afterthought. Frankly, he didn’t much care if Jake did mind, this concerned his little girl’s health and that was more important than anything or anyone else.
“Of course.”
If there was a slight grin on Jake’s face he quickly covered it up, gesturing to the chairs by the outdoor table. Their host, Lily’s Daddy, Marc, was sitting with some other guests as they finished off their lunch. The ‘children’ had already eaten and some of the other adults were keeping an eye on them. Sean didn’t like taking his eyes off Haley, but she’d played here often enough that she knew the rules.
He settled down beside Jake, beginning without preamble.
“Haley doesn’t seem to be getting better. She’s only gone to the toilet once since we started the suppositories, and that was only a little bit. I can hardly get her to eat a thing, and I’m worried about her losing more weight.”
Jake frowned, nodding.
“You’re giving her a suppository each night?” he asked, continuing after Sean nodded. “I noticed Haley’s wearing diapers today, are you giving her some them during the day too?”
Sean shook his head. “No. The diapers are due to some misbehavior. She’s been very cranky and out of sorts. She needs constant correction and is really tired. Frankly, I’m worried as hell.” Sean felt something lift as he confessed his worry to someone who understood.
“Of course,” Jake continued to frown. “I don
’t want to try enemas yet, let’s save them as a last resort. Still, we don’t want her ending up in hospital. Try two suppositories tonight.”
He paused, thinking. “Also, give her some orange juice with the iron supplement, it will increase absorption. The crankiness is understandable; I bet she’s feeling just miserable. A change of scene might help with that, for both you and her. I’m going up to my holiday home next week. You’re both welcome to join me. It might be good for you, too, having someone to help take care of her.”
Sean shook his hand. “Thanks, man. I just might take you up on that. Feel free to bill me for the advice.”
Jake chuckled. “Oh, I will.”
Suddenly the sound of a woman’s voice calling for Haley and Lily hit their ears and both men stood as Marc turned away from his guests, his face growing stern.
“Excuse me, Jake.” Sean strode to the woman, his eyes searching for his little girl and her friend.
They were nowhere in sight.
***
Haley followed Lily deeper into the woods, excited about the adventure they were going on. Lily was her bestest friend and they always had fun together. Even so, she was beginning to feel really tired as Lily continued to walk on, and Haley found she was drifting farther and farther behind the other girl.
“Lily,” she called out. “How much further?” Lily was taking her to a secret place. Haley was so excited that if she’d had any energy she’d be skipping.
“Not much further. Come on Haley, hurry.”
“I’m trying, I’m trying,” Haley muttered back, crying out as she slipped and landed heavily on her knees. Suddenly, she began to cry. Sitting back on her bum, her knees and palms aching where she’d fell, all Haley could do was bawl.
“Oh, no, Haley. What happened?” Suddenly, Lily was there, her glorious red hair glistening in the sun as she peered down at Haley in concern.
“I-I fell,” Haley sobbed out, unable to stop her tears. “I-I want m-my Daddy.” He’d make it all feel better.
