Part 11

Monday morning Charlie was sitting in the kitchen (naked as usual) eating breakfast when Kathy arrived and immediately gave him a big hug and kiss while he was still sitting there. "Hi Kathy? Have a good weekend?" he asked.

"Yeah Charlie I did, we went swimming Saturday and had a family picnic yesterday afternoon."

"Mary told you didn't she?"

"Yeah she met with Cindy, Carol and Me yesterday and explained it to us. Are you ok? Mary said you'd never told anyone..."

"I'm OK Kathy but I really don't want to talk about it; it's over and happened in another town..."

"OK then... We know what we need to and I won't bring it up again..."

"Thanks Kathy I really appreciate that... are we doing anything today? Do I need to get dressed?"

"Well that's up to you isn't it? What would you like to do Charlie?"

"Since when do I get a choice? You're in charge I seem to recall and I'm not allowed choices. I can count on one hand how many I've had in almost two months?"

"Charlie what the hell are you talking about?"

"Kathy since two weeks before we moved here, I've had EXACTLY 1 hour and 18 minutes when I got to do whatever I wanted to do; and even then; it was with the proviso that I didn't leave the house or the back yard! Someone has been continuously in charge of me and supervising everything I do; I'm told when to get up; what to eat; when to bathe; whether I'll be wearing a diaper, naked or clothes; every minute of every day; I've been told what I'm to do and usually how to do it. THAT'S what I'm talking about!"

"Charlie that just not true!"

"YES IT IS AND I'M FED UP WITH IT! Just look at my average day! Time to get up Charlie; go take a bath Charlie be in the kitchen in 15 minutes; make sure you empty yourself; I may decide to check your butt; eat what's put in front of me; time to switch supervisors; lay on my lap so I can feel you up; put on shorts because we're taking a walk where she wants to go; no we're going to sun bathe today; or let's lay out side and confess your whole life; or go down stairs and get felt up watching a movie; relax I'm going to stick my hand up your ass; you're going to the doctor and have a camera stuck up inside you today; don't worry it won't hurt and the fucking nurse won't attack you like your mother did; but that sure didn't work out; time to go to bed, you look tired little boy; on and on and on: where did I get any choices there? And if I so much as objected I got spanked and sometimes spanked again for getting spanked the first time! Oh and let's not forget our mandatory true confession where I get to describe in detail all the ways I've been fucked over in my life! The only choice I've had in weeks is to go to the fucking bathroom so I don't pee all over the place because of this fucking infection! I'm fed up with all this shit! I just want it to be over! I'm 13 fucking years old; I'm not a toddler and I'm tired of being treated like one!" he said slamming his fork down on the table and then dumping his breakfast in the trash and dropping his plate in the sink before leaving her sitting there with her mouth open.

Charlie went up to his room and locked himself inside and lay on his bed crying. A few minutes later he heard her try to open the door. "Charlie open this door," she said.

"NO! Can't you leave me alone for even ten minutes! That's the WHOLE fucking problem! Can't you UNDERSTAND that!"

"Charlie I'm responsible for you and I need to see you're all right."

"THAT'S THE PROBLEM! YOU are responsible NOT ME! NO ONE TRUST'S ME TO DO ANYTHING! NOW JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!"

"I'm sorry Charlie but I can't do that... Just unlock the door so I can look in and see you're not hurt or anything, then I'll leave you alone and just check on you every hour or so..."

Suddenly the door jerked open and he glared up at her; "SEE I'm fucking alive and not hurt; I'm just fucking pissed off about all this shit; now leave me the fuck alone!" he yelled and then slammed the door closed again and dropped on his bed.

Kathy was shaking as she went back downstairs and tried to figure out what to do. In his current mental state she was afraid that no matter what she did, it would only make it worse. Finally she called the swim club and got Mary on the phone and told her what had happened. "I'll be right home," Mary said and immediately hung up.

Mary came running in the back door and just said "Where is he?"

"Up stairs in his room; MARY DON'T!" she said stepping in front of her and stopping her. "Sit down, we need to talk about this before you go charging up there. He's alright right now, but he needs time to cool down before either of us goes up and tries to talk to him. Now sit down and listen for a minute!"

"OK but this had better be good or he won't sit down for a week!"

"THAT is part of the problem Mary! I've been sitting here thinking about what he said when he blew up and he has some valid points."

"NOTHING justifies what he said to you!"

"Yes it does; now just cool down and listen. In his mind he's had exactly 1 hour and 18 minutes in almost two months when someone wasn't hovering over him telling him what to do or not to do; he has been constantly supervised and handled by all of us. We've told him what he was allowed to do, eat, drink, think, demanded he confess his life to us; including his deepest secrets; he's been abused by his mother and that nurse; she been spanked by three of us for even the slightest objection to doing what he was told; and he's been groped and handled like no boy I know would ever allow by all of us. Just when was the last time you allowed him to decide anything? Mary we are all younger than him and yet we've treated him like a little kid and you know how that grates on him. Charlie needs to regain some control over his life and he needs it now; not later. Your forced confession about his sexual abuse was the last straw; he has no secrets; he has no control over anything and he's rebelling against how he's being treated. I would too If I were him. Think about it; he's right to be mad about it; I'm just surprised he hasn't blown up sooner."

"But he yelled at you and you are in charge of him!"

"Yes he did and I know WHY he did and I don't have a problem with it. YOU on the other hand were about to charge up there and PUNISH him weren't you? I KNOW that's what you intended; but he doesn't need punished; he needs to feel he SOME control over ANYTHING because for almost two months he hasn't had ANY at all! Moreover, what RIGHT do you have in deciding he needs punished? You are his younger sister NOT his parent. IF he needs to be punished; and that Mary is a BIG IF, then his father should do it NOT his younger sister! Who made you GOD over him and took every tiny decision out of his hands. Your Mother? Need I remind you where SHE is right now? In jail for child abuse!"

"Oh God what have I done to him?" Mary whimpered rubbing her face with her hands...

"You and We have tried to help him but we went overboard Mary, it's as plain as day when you step back and look at it from his side. We need to keep helping him, but he needs to be allowed to make decisions again or he'll reject all of us and anything we try to do."

"So what do we do?"

"Right this minute; nothing. I told him I'd check on him every hour or so, but he asked to be left alone in his room and I'm honoring that request. When he's settled down, I'm sure he'll come down and apologize to me for yelling at me; that's the way he is and he'll be really embarrassed about having done it. Then the three of us can sit down and discuss how to make things better for him and allow him some say in the matter. If we don't then we'll have a war on our hands and he'll end up hating all of us and I for one don't want that."

"But Kathy he was out of line doing that to you..."

"But that's between him and me; you have NOTHING to do with this. I'm being employed by your father to supervise Charlie until noon. What happens between when I take over and noon is between me, Charlie and your father. Let me make this perfectly clear Mary; you will NOT punish Charlie for what happened today! I called you only to advise you of what happened; I did not ask you to come home and I don't need you to relieve me of my responsibilities regarding your brother. If you can't handle that then you need to leave and go back to the swim club. Charlie is MY responsibility per your FATHER; you have no say in this matter! Need I remind you that you are not his parent! I will deal with Charlie in my own way and you will not interfere in this matter."

"But I'm his sister?"

"But not his mother or father; and his mother has lost all parental rights; so anything she told you is null and void! Do I need to discuss with your father how you're micro-managing Charlie's life? I don't think he knows how far you've gone nor do I think he'd approve. That's the whole problem here Mary, we've at your direction completely taken over his life down to the smallest detail and we shouldn't have done that! We all us and you in particular need to step back and let him HAVE a life again. Yes he needs care and some help, but he doesn't need every tiny decision taken away from him. I suggest you think about that really hard or you're going to drive him away from you and it you do you may not get him back."

"But I'm only doing what's best for him..." she whined.

"Don't you trust your brother to know what's best for himself? Who made you all wise regarding HIS life and actions? Who told you, YOU are always right regarding him? NO ONE! You've decided you always know best even if you don't and I'm here to tell you THIS time you're flat out WRONG! GET OVER IT you're NOT his PARENT and YOU Don't have the right to rule his life!"

"I think you should leave..."

"NOT going to happen Mary; I'll call your father and explain all this to him; but I'm not going anywhere! YOU did not hire me, YOUR FATHER hired me and I work for HIM not YOU! Are we clear on this! If not I'll make that phone call right now! Regardless, I'm going to be speaking to him this evening and letting him know what's going on here. Right now Charlie needs protection from YOU as much as from anyone else!"

"But I love Charlie and I wouldn't hurt him..."

"But you ARE hurting him, that's the whole point! You need to back off and be his sister, not his mother or boss! How many times do I have to say this before I get through to you."

"She's right Mary, you need to back off; you are not my boss and I won't stand for this anymore!" Charlie said from the doorway. "I'm talking to Dad tonight, this shit's going to end!"

"Charlie? How long have you been listening," Mary said blushing red.

"More than long enough. Kathy I apologize for blowing up at you like that, I was wrong to do that; this is not your fault; but I just couldn't take it anymore." He said sincerely to her.

"Charlie why are you wearing clothes?" his sister asked.

"Mary you just don't get it do you? I'm wearing clothes because I FEEL like wearing clothes. I don't need to be naked all the time so that I can be groped and handled. I'm not a toddler and you will NOT tell me what I can or cannot wear! I will no longer put up with you being in charge of me. Yes I need you to change my diapers but I DON'T need you to rule over every tiny thing and I won't accept you trying to do it!"

"But if I need to punish you?"

"I'm not accepting that either! Dad can decide if I need punished; but NOT YOU and if you try I'll fight you and you'll have to beat me up. But I'm used to being beaten up so that's nothing new. I've had more beatings in my life that any ten boys my age so if that's what you want then that's what we'll do!"

"Charlie I don't want to do that..."

"Then get over all this shit that you get to decide EVERYTHING about me; I'm not buying it anymore and I won't stand for it! Mom put you in charge of me and that crazy Bitch is in jail, nothing she decided applies anymore and if you can't accept that then you and I will be fighting a lot!"

"Charlie come over here..."

"Charlie You can't tell me what to do..."

"AND YOU NO LONGER CAN TELL ME EITHER! NOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND!" he screamed at her; "Now just leave me alone! I'll let you know when I NEED your help with something!" he said as he spun and walked out of the room.

"Charlie?..." Mary whimpered.

"Are you really trying to drive him away?" Kathy softly asked.

"What do you know about it?"

"I know what I see Mary. And what I see is a 13 year old boy taking back control of his life from his 11 year old sister who's gotten too used to being in charge of someone she never should have been in charge of to begin with! You're actions and words are proving right now that you're not mature enough to handle ruling over him and he's not going to stand for it. Your continued attempts to control him will only drive him away further and further, until he will fight you physically; he'll lose the physical fight, but you'll lose him forever!"

"But I'm in charge of him..."

"NOT anymore! Live with it or you're going to pay a really big price! It's apparent to me that I need to make a phone call since you just don't get it." Then stood up and headed for the telephone while Mary slumped in her chair.

An hour later, Mr. Miller arrived home and Kathy outlined what had happened today and both the reactions of Charlie and Mary. He called both of them to the living room and sat them down. "Mary you are NOT in charge of Charlie and never should have been. That was your mother's decision and as I'm finding out lately like many others she made regarding Charlie, they were flat out wrong. I expect you to help him when he needs it; but you are not going to continue micro-managing him. You were told to take care of him due his illness NOT rule every aspect of his life; nor were you authorized by me to punish him. That's my job if he needs it. Charlie, you are to help your sister in taking care of you but I never expected her to be making all the decisions regarding anything but making sure you followed the doctor's orders and assisting you as needed. Kathy, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I want peace in this family and I intend to have it. All rules formerly made by your Mother are cancelled; I thought I'd made that clear when she was arrested but apparently not clear enough. I expect you to treat each other with respect and care; if you two can't handle that then I'll make rules to deal with it."

"Now are there other matters I need to deal with right now or can they wait until I get home; I need to get back to work; I just used up my lunch hour to deal with this. None? Ok I'll see you two at dinner; Kathy please stay until I get home and act as a peacekeeper, help Charlie with anything he needs but you don't need to supervise him either."

"Yes Sir Mr. Miller, I'll stay and look after his needs."

"Thank you Kathy, you've avoided a major disaster here and I owe you for looking after my family for me; that's two times now you gone out of your way to keep my family whole and safe and I don't know how I can ever repay you for that."

"No problem Mr. Miller, I'm just trying to look out for both of them, I really care about them and I didn't want to see a war start or something where it wasn't necessary."

"OK, I need to go, I'll be back about 5:30 can you stay until then."

"No problem, Mom and Dad are out at some company dinner tonight; it's just me and Cindy at home."

After he left, Mary was sitting there crying and Charlie was looking very nervous. "Kathy could I take a walk around the neighborhood; I need some fresh air to clear my head. I've had about all the confrontations I can handle today."

"Sure Charlie, would you like me come with you or would you rather explore on your own?"

"If you wouldn't mind, I could use some company and I don't know didly about the area and don't want to get lost or run into that Ricky guy..."

"OK let's go then and I'll see if I can't introduce you to some more kids in the area."

Outside Charlie reached out and took Kathy's hand in his as they walked to the street, she just smiled and squeezed his hand in hers and then moved closer so their shoulders brushed against each other as they walked. "Where do you want to go?"

"Anywhere, I just need to get out of there for awhile and let Mary process it all; she's all pissed off and confused right now."

"OK there's a park a couple of blocks East, it's not much, but we could go over there..."

"Sounds good, Kathy I really need to thank you for standing up for me today and I'm really sorry for yelling at you this morning; you didn't deserve that... I just lost it; this has been building up and festering in me for some time now and well when she made me confess about the sexual abuse; I just couldn't take any more. It was just bad timing that you were the one to make a comment about me having choices that I haven't had for ages and I lost it. I'm really sorry about that. Please forgive me, I was really mean to you and I really do want you as my best friend."

Stopping she turned to him and pulled him against her. "Charlie I was upset initially when it happened but I quickly realized that what you said was true and I just had to help you. I didn't like being yelled at like that but I knew you were really upset because you're always so nice. Just for the record, you're going to have to do a whole lot more than yell a little to get rid of me Charlie Miller, you ARE my best friend and I'm not changing that anytime soon." Then she kissed him lightly on the lips, before releasing him and continuing their slow walk.

When they got to the park they sat on top of a picnic table and Charlie pulled her hand onto his lap and held it with both of his hands, gently rubbing it and looking down at it. "You have really pretty hands Kathy," he softly murmured, "So soft and smooth, yet they seem so strong at the same time... jeeze that sounds really stupid doesn't it? Like I don't know, from one of those romance novels or something..."

<giggle> "Yeah it does sound like something out of one of those books, but the truth is that no girl would ever object to you telling her something like that Charlie. Most of us are nervous about how other people see us and it's really nice when a boy complements us about how we look whether it's one body part or all of us. Girls need to hear that a boy finds us attractive no matter how small the complement is."

"But you are attractive Kathy; I've told you that tons of times; I think you're really pretty and incredibly smart and I really like you. I guess I've just never really looked at your hands up close and it just kind of you know slipped out. Kathy you have a great body and your look really sexy to me all the time; but you know what really attracts me; not just to you but any girl?"

"What? I think this is something you don't talk about much..."

"No I don't not really, in fact the only other girl I can remember telling this is Carol the other day when we were talking about problems we'd had due to our sizes being not normal for our ages. Anyway, what really attracts me to any particular girl and especially you is your mind and your personality. Does she care about the 'real' me; and I think you do. Does she look past how small I am and 'see' the 'real' me? I think you do see the real me Kathy and you still seem to like me. And does she treat me like I want to be treated? Kathy all the physical stuff is a bonus if those three questions are positive. But that aside; you have a big plus on the physical side; because you are a pretty girl physically."

"Thanks Charlie, I wasn't fishing for complements; but I do appreciate them. But Charlie I'm not all that pretty, I'm flat chested, my nose is too small for the width of my face; my lips are too thin, my eyes too close together, and my feet are way too big. I could never be a photo model."

"You're wrong about all of that Kathy, <chuckle> well I don't know about your feet I never really looked at them <chuckle> But seriously, your nose, lips, face, and eyes all go together nicely and I could spend hours just looking into your eyes they're really pretty and tell me what you're thinking a lot of the times; and I like what I see in them. Boobs? I seem to recall a very nice set of perky "A" cup breasts that look just perfect on you. Kathy I don't understand why girls think they have to have huge breasts to attract a guy. Really big ones actually turn me off because they're so out of proportion with the rest of the girls body and besides that they must really be a bother for the girl. All that weight hanging there and throwing her off balance and well they just don't do anything for me. Most guys don't care about breasts all that much; other than that we are fascinated by them because first of all we don't have them and second it's probably a throwback to when we were breastfed and a guy just doesn't forget where he got his meals when he was little. The truth is ANY breast is fine with most of us. Small, medium, large; it really doesn't matter to us. A few guys have a breast fetish; but then some guys have a thing or legs, or hands, or butts or clothes or whatever. As far as I'm concerned you are very attractive and I wouldn't change anything about you."

"Is all that really true Charlie?"

"Yes Kathy; boys are attracted to girls who show they really care about them and how they feel. And I'm not talking about sex; I'm talking about emotions. If the boy feels the girl really cares about him; then he looks past all the supposed physical flaws and sees the real person, not just the body."

"But wouldn't you like to date a model?"

"No, almost all the girls I met that fall into that category are so stuck on themselves and how they look that they never think of anyone but themselves. I don't want that and I don't need that; in fact it makes them ugly to me. I'll admit that some of them are nice to look at; but as soon as they open their mouths and spout the normal crap about themselves; I just want to puke. Besides most of them wouldn't even give me the time of day because I'm so small and they have to be seen with a 'perfect' male to keep up their image."

"Charlie one of the things you said this morning was that it upset you the way we handled you and touched you all the time. Is that a problem between you and me? I don't want you to feel that way about us."

"No Kathy it wasn't a problem between you and me. You almost always asked me whether what you wanted to do or were doing was ok with me and so did Carol. I could tell that you cared about how I felt about it. What bothered me was the 'assumption' on everyone's part; especially my sister, that you girls had the 'right' to do whatever you wanted with me and that I couldn't object whether I liked it or not. It made me feel like a piece of meat or a pet or something. I was told what I could do; how I was to sit; and then not asked before they started just doing whatever they wanted to with my body. It was really demeaning to be treated that way. I would never treat any of you or any girl that way; so why was I being treated like a toy of some kind. THAT's what I had a problem with."

"I'm sorry Charlie I did that a few times too; I know I did. I didn't mean to treat you that way and I apologize for doing that to you. I shouldn't have done that; I'd be really upset if someone did that to me."

"It's ok Kathy, I wasn't upset with you at the time, it was the whole thing that upset me when it happened over and over again and I was never given any choice in the matter. Think about how it would feel to have that done to you all day, every day for weeks. You're not allowed to object or you get punished, you have no choice of who's doing it; it's just whoever someone else decided is taking care of you; and then you're never asked whether you have a problem with it; because it's their 'right' to do whatever they want with you since they are in charge of you. That's what the problem was in never having any choices and never even being allowed to say I don't want to do that."

"Yes I can Kathy, please don't compare yourself to them. I... I just don't want to talk about what they did and what you girls did wasn't like what they did... None of you beat me up and at least you cared about me; you just didn't give me choices..."

"Charlie? Will you ever allow me to touch you again and you know hold you and maybe cuddle you? I really liked getting to do those things with you and well I'd really miss it... I promise to ask and never assume that's what you want..."

<sigh> "Kathy I love the way you touch me and I like it when you hold me and cuddle me and we play together... I like it with all you girls, each of you cares about me and I feel loved when we're together like that... I just want the option to say no or that I'd rather do something else, or have some choice in the whole thing. I don't hate any of you for what you've done individually or even any specific thing. It's the whole environment I've been forced to accept that has to change or I'll go nuts. I need choices and I need to make decisions for myself and that's the short version of the problem; no one's allowed me that for too long and I can't take that anymore. I love all four of you girls and you're my best friend ever; but I need some freedom too. I'm not going to allow myself to be supervised in every minor thing I do and every decision in my life. That's what has to stop."

"Charlie? I think we should start back, you haven't had any lunch and well you didn't eat much of your breakfast either and you need to take your medicine and well I need to have a really long talk with your sister and the other girls. Are you ok with me doing that and telling them what's really going on with you? You've been incredibly honest with me about what's really bothering you and how to fix it; but I'll need to tell them about it so they understand how you feel and what you want. I want your permission to do that Charlie. It's the only way I can see to fix things for you and I want them fixed so you are happy about being with us."

"Yeah I'm ok with that, you've been a really good listener and let me work through my feeling about all this. I just don't think I could take doing that again with each of you; so go ahead and tell them whatever you feel you need to, to fix things. I'm just exhausted by everything that's happened. I'd really like some time alone this afternoon so I can get myself back together. I don't want to blowup like that again; and it will give you time to talk to the other girls. So let's head home and then I just want to be in my room for awhile..."

They walked back home together holding each other, her arm around his shoulders and his around her waist until they reached the front door, where he paused and looked up at her, then leaned in and softly kissed her, "Thanks for being such a good friend Kathy," then opened the door and went to the kitchen, fixed himself a sandwich then took it with a Pepsi to his room and closed the door.

Kathy went to the telephone and called her sister and Carol and was just hanging up, when Mary appeared. "Where's my brother, I need to talk to him."

"Not right now Mary, he's in his room and wants to be alone for awhile; just leave him be; you and I and the other girls need to have a long talk. I just called Cindy and Carol and they're on the way over here."

"No I need to see Charlie right now!"

"NO YOU DON'T and you WILL NOT bother him right now! Mary you are acting like a spoiled little brat and you're not going to bother him right now. He asked to be left alone for the afternoon and you WILL honor his wishes in this matter. That attitude of yours is exactly a major part of the problem and we are going to discuss it before you see him again. Charlie and I just spent a long time discussing what he's feeling and why and you're going to hear it before you go playing 'little miss I'm the Boss' with him and end up in a fist fight. Am I clear on that?"

"So who put you in charge?"

"Your FATHER did! I'm here to keep the peace and I'll do whatever I have to, to do that! Or do I need to call him again and have him come home to make it plain to you again. YOU are NO LONGER in charge of Charlie and you need to get over it!"

"But I need to fix this..."

"Mary until you change your attitude; you'll fix nothing; you don't even know what the problem is; so just how the hell do you expect charging up there and confronting him is going to fix anything? Now go sit in the kitchen until the other girls get here and I'll explain it to you. Charlie asked me to do this for him because it's emotionally draining for him and he doesn't want to go through it again three more times to tell each of you himself."

When the other girls arrived in the kitchen Kathy explained to them what had happened today and that she'd had to call his father to come home to mediate. "After that Charlie and I took a walk over to the park and had a long discussion as to why all this happened, what he was feeling and what was needed to fix things. The short answer is WE all four of us, but especially his sister have been abusing him ever since he moved here and Mary started doing it even before that!"

"No!" all of them answered at once, "That's not true... I wouldn't do that..."

"I know you don't think that, but you've never looked at the overall picture, nor at it from HIS perspective; and that's exactly what we are going to do here; so that EVERY ONE of us sees what's happened from HIS perspective. Once you do, you'll understand WHY he blew up this morning and what WE need to change to help him."

"But I've never done anything to hurt him..." Mary whimpered.

"REALLY? Let's take a look at that. Who held him physically restrained and forced him to confess that he'd been sexually abused for years by a bunch of boys and even raped? Who did that Mary?"

"I... I made him tell me... but it was to help him not hurt him?"

"Just how would you like being held down and forced to tell every dirty little secret in your life Mary, given no options and no escape with the threat of physical punishment, which I might remind you; you've done on a number of occasions? That's emotional abuse Mary and YOU did it to him. You're not GOD and you don't have the right to demand that of anyone!"

"So let's all step back and stop the denial right now; and take a close look at the last two months Charlie's had to live through shall we? We all know that he'd been sexually abused by those boys for at least two years before this all started, then raped; then his bedwetting started so what happens to him? His mother puts his younger sister in charge of him to diaper and humiliate him. He goes through that for two weeks, losing more control everyday and getting spanked either by his mother or sister for every minor infraction or even attempting to voice an objection. Then on the trip here, he's spanked, humiliated and diapered several times in public restrooms, including in front of a bus load of school girls, before he even gets here; again any objection gets physical punishment."

"So he finally gets to his new home and his mother increases the control given to his younger sister who takes over EVERY minor detail of his life. Again enforced with physical punishment for even the most minor objection or deviation from what's demanded of him. Then his mother performs an unauthorized medical procedure; not once but twice torturing him and causes actual physical damage to him internally, since we know he has scar tissue inside his bladder and still don't know the long term effect that will have on him. To your credit; Mary you DID intercede and stop that and probably saved him from major permanent damage. So his mother gets arrested and Mary takes her place as the person now totally in control of him and continues the punishments for any objection or infraction. Now I come into the picture and so does Cindy and then later Carol. Just what did we do? I'll tell you. We gave him completely conflicting messages continuously and we abused our friend both physically and emotionally!"

"I did not!" Cindy responded.

"Oh really? Ok then did you ask Charlie to sit on your lap or did you tell him to? Did you ask to check his behind to see if he'd emptied himself or did you demand it; and then spank him when he objected? And didn't his sister then give him an even worse beating later, because you spanked him the first time? Did you ever ask whether he minded that you groped his privates or wanted your fingers up his ass or did you just go ahead whenever you felt like doing it? Did you give him any option to laying across your lap to be molested sexually or just tell him to do it? Do you see what I'm saying here?"

"But he never said anything..." Cindy whimpered.

"And Just why the hell would he? When objecting in any way to any damn thing get's him spanked not just once but then again later? He had NO choice in whether to let you do anything to him or not!"

"Now multiply all that out over MONTHS, where every minute of every day is supervised by someone, with NO choices EVER about ANYTHING. And to make it worse all of these supervisors are younger than him and females to boot! He had no choice over who was watching him, what he was doing, what was done to him, nothing ever! Every second he was under someone's control and never ever given any chance to object, or make a single decision about anything. THAT LADIES IS ABUSE AND WE ARE THE ONE'S WHO'VE DONE IT TO HIM! While at the same time telling him how much we love him and care about him. Now just think about that and then tell me if it had been done to you, that you wouldn't feel like he does right now!"

"Carol to the best of my knowledge, unless you've done something with him that I don't know about; you are the only one of us who hasn't done these things with him. He clearly told me that you always asked before doing anything with him and he really appreciated that. He likes and respects you and wants you as his friend. After talking to him today it amazes me that he actually likes and respects all of us even after what we've done to him and the way we've treated him. Charlie just needs to have control back in his life. He needs to have choices in what happens to him and what he does. None of us are his boss or in charge of him. We are here to help him when he needs it; but it's up to him whether he needs something or not; not us. The only exception is regarding his medical needs. We are to make sure he takes his medicine on time and that he's following the doctor's orders; but that is all! We are here to help him with other things like diaper changes, but we are NOT in charge of him and we are not authorized to punish him. That's his father's job. Am I clear on that MARY?" You seem to be the one who has this fixation that you are in charge of him. You need to get it through your head that you are NOT in charge; and actually never should have been."

"But I need to take care of him..."

"No Mary you need to help him when HE decides he needs your help. Mary I'm going to be as blunt as I can here. Charlie loves you as his sister, but you are not his mother, you are not in charge of him, and you never will be again. Charlie will no longer accept you being in charge of him; he WILL physically fight you if he has to, to break your hold on him. If that happens he will never forgive you ever, and you will lose anything you ever had with him. Get this clear, you're not smarter than him; you don't know more than he does about what's good for him and he's not going to accept you making decisions for or about him. The only advantage you have over him is physical size and he's willing to give up everything to stop you from dominating him like you have. Unless you are willing to give up the most loving boy I've ever met you need to change and you need to do it before you even talk to him again. He won't take you ruling his life anymore."

"Kathy will he still let us hold him and well play with him?" Cindy asked shyly.

"Yes Cindy he will, he loves being held and cuddled and sexual stuff as long as he has choices and the option to say no or he'd rather do something else. You just need to ask him and tell him what you'd like to do; instead of just assuming you have the right to do it without asking him. He's never touched any of us that way without asking permission and getting approval in advance. He deserves the same respect of being asked before we do something with him."

"You're right on that Kathy, when I was with him the last time, we both had fun and he told me how much he appreciated that I asked if he was ok with it before we did anything. He really does love to be held and cuddled and stroked and played with, as long as two things happen. We ask before doing it and we don't talk down to him like a little kid; he's 13 and very smart, he taught me a lot about relationships in just a couple of hours; things no boy ever was willing to tell me. He'd probably let us even treat him like a little kid if we asked to do that; he did when I asked to give him my introductory bath and explained why I wanted to do that; then we both had fun with it."

"That's the whole point here Carol, you did ask him beforehand and even explained why you wanted to do that and he agreed and then you both enjoyed yourselves. The whole key here ladies is that we need to ask what HE wants or at least whether he's willing to let us do what we'd like to do with him; BEFORE we do things. This is all about Charlie having choices in his life; for the past two months he hasn't had any and that's why he blew up and rebelled."

"Mary there are more changes here for you than any of us. Are you going to be able to accept those changes or not? Because if you can't then I'd suggest you keep clear of him until you've adjusted to it and can deal with the new situation. I know you love him and I know he loves you; but it's a new ballgame with new rules and you are the one who needs to make changes; Charlie just wants his life back and you have been standing in the way of that happening for him."

Mary had tears streaming down her face, but managed to answer, "Yes Kathy, it's going to be really hard, but I have to don't I?"

"Yes if you want to keep your brother Mary, we'll help all we can, but It's still up to you..."

The family had a quiet dinner and not much was said about what happened that day. Mary was very quiet and Charlie just nodded when his father asked if everything was ok

That evening, Charlie came out of his room at about 10:00 and found Mary in her room curled up on her bed. "Mary? I'd appreciate it if you could diaper me now so I can go to bed in a little while," he softly asked.

"You want me to diaper you?"

"Yes Mary, I can't put those cloth diapers on by myself, I think you know that."

"Ok Charlie, I'll be over in a minute," she replied rubbing her face. When she looked at him he saw that her eyes were red and puffy and her nose was red, it was obvious she'd been crying.

Sitting on the edge of her bed, he reached out and touched her side. "Mary I never wanted all this to happen, but I just couldn't go on the way things were. I was going crazy over the way I was being treated and it just had to stop. I hope you understand why I blew up this morning. I apologized to Kathy for doing that with her; but I just couldn't hold it back anymore. She said she understood and forgave me for doing that. Mary I love you and I don't want to lose you, but I can't allow you to control my life anymore. Can you see that?"

Sobbing, she sat up and grabbed her brother into a hug. "Charlie I'm so sorry, I never meant to hurt you or take over your life like that. I... I just got caught up in being in control of you and I went too far and then I... I couldn't stop... I'm so sorry... can you ever forgive me?"

"Yes I can Mary as long as you never try to do that to me again. I just can't allow that to happen ever again. When you made me tell you about those boys... and... and what they did... That was just too much to take anymore... I had to stop it... I had no choice... I need to say this though. I'll forgive you but I'll never trust you again!"

"Charlie I thought I was helping you by making you tell me that..."

"No Mary, you just drug up all that old pain and made it fresh again and then told the others even before I told you it was ok to do that. I know you did Mary, don't deny it. You broke my trust when you did that Mary. You told me you wouldn't tell anyone; but you did it anyway and didn't even give me the courtesy of asking me first; then never mentioned you did it. I don't know if I can ever trust you with a secret ever again Mary. That hurt me more than anything."

"But Charlie I did it to help you..."

"That wasn't your decision to make Mary. You told them something I never wanted ANYONE to ever know; first you forced it out of me; then not even an hour later; go an tell two other people, even after you promised never to tell anyone! As a result I no longer trust you to know anything about me, because it's obvious that you have no respect for me; you don't care about me at all no matter what you say."

"Charlie... that's not true... I love you..."

"All I can say is you sure have a strange way of showing it. Now would you please diaper me or do I need to go get Dad to do it for me?"

"No I'll do it... let's go over to your room and get it done..."

In his room, Mary dug out the diapers while Charlie removed his clothes and got up on the changing pad and waited. She was trembling as she applied lotion and powder to him and it hurt that he wouldn't even look at her while she diapered him. When she was done, he just said, "Thank you," and got off the table and went to his bed, then sat against the headboard, with a book on his legs.

"Charlie can I sleep with you tonight?"

"No Mary, right now you're not very high on my 'deserves favors' list."

"But why Charlie?"

<sigh> Pointing down beside the bed, "See that heating vent Mary? My bedroom is directly above the kitchen and that vent is on the same duct as the one by the kitchen table. Know what that means?"

"No..."

"It means I've heard every damn conversation you held in the kitchen, not only today but every day since we moved here, if I was up here in my room. Kathy had to all but physically stop you from running up here to beat my ass this morning and then all but club you over the head all day long before you finally acknowledged that what you've done to me was wrong. That's how I know you told them about the rape and abuse; that's why I know you never wanted to give up your domination of me and only relented when you were no longer given an option. I've heard all your scheming and planning and secret conversations about me, both with the girls and the one's you had with mother. You don't love me; you want to control me and keep me as your personal toy. You have no respect for me and right now I don't believe anything you say; because I've heard what you REALLY think and want. Now please leave me alone until morning."

"You... You heard?"

"I heard everything... I wasn't intentionally listening; but the duct acts just like a microphone and picks up everything said down there. Good night Mary and thanks for putting my diaper on me."

Mary was sobbing as she left the room; but Charlie didn't really care anymore.

Neither of them slept well that night and it was Kathy that woke him in the morning. "Hello Charlie, she said smiling at him; Mary's already left for her swimming lesson; I just wanted to let you know I'm here."

"What... What time is it?"

"About 8:45 that's late for you. You didn't sleep well last night did you..."

"No... Mary and I had a talk last night and I had to tell her I can't trust her anymore. You might as well know and the other girls too. I've heard every conversation you've held down in the kitchen. It all comes up that heating duct there. I'm tired of her lies and half truths and breaking her word to me. I don't know if I'll ever trust her again. I heard all of it yesterday morning and again in the afternoon; the only reason she's not still trying to rule my life; is because of what you did and said to get me free of her; she only relented when she had no option. I need to thank you for that Kathy you really are my best friend."

"Charlie I just did what I had to do to help you. Once I realized what we'd done to you I had to help fix things for you. I couldn't have lived with myself if I didn't."

"Well thanks anyway and if I can ever do anything for you just ask and I'll do it if I can..."

"I hope never to need it but thanks for offering Charlie. How's your diaper this morning?"

"Soaked like always..." he mumbled.

"OK then let's get it off and then you can go clean up while I fix you some breakfast. What would you like Charlie?"

"I don't know, something easy for you, surprise me; but not a whole lot, my stomach is kind of queasy. My system is still trying to recover from all the emotions yesterday..."

"Eggs and toast? Pancakes? French toast? Fried potatoes? Bacon? Omelet?"

"Eggs over easy and toast sounds good, nothing greasy though. Thanks Kathy you really don't need to cook for me; I can do that myself you know."

"I know you can Charlie, but I need to do something to keep me occupied and feel like I'm earning what you're fathers paying me. I still think it's way too much for what I do; but it was the only thing that shut Mary up yesterday when I made it clear I worked for your father and not her."

"Yeah I heard. Like I said, it all comes up that duct to that vent there, loud and clear like I was sitting right there at the table..."

"OK well I guess you know everything I said yesterday then don't you? Everything said in the kitchen anyway. So let me get that wet diaper off you and then I'll see you in the kitchen when you're ready for breakfast."

"OK," he replied and climbed out of bed and went and laid on the changing table. He smiled at her when their eyes met while she was removing his diaper and she blushed as she pealed it off him. "Kathy I don't believe you're blushing at seeing me naked."

"Well... actually it wasn't that Charlie... but I really do like seeing you laying there all naked and open like that... it was uh... just something I was thinking..."

"Dirty little thoughts?" he said with a chuckle.

"Uh... yeah... you don't want to know either..."

"Ok I won't ask then... I wouldn't want to embarrass you..."

"Charlie I'm already embarrassed about it... and you don't even know what I was thinking... now you'll really think badly of me having dirty thoughts..."

"Kathy having sexy thoughts is normal and you should never be embarrassed just because you have them; everyone does and more than they'd ever admit."

"OK well I'm done, so I'll see you downstairs..."

<chuckle> "OK Kathy I'll be down in about 15 minutes..."

Charlie came into the kitchen wearing only a pair of running shorts and Kathy smiled when she saw him "Looking good Charlie, have a seat and your eggs will be done in a minute. There's toast and juice already there for you; would you like some milk? It would help settle your stomach?"

"Thanks, that would probably help. I'll get it while you finish up the eggs."

"Pour me one too if you would," she asked and he got out a second glass and filled it for her.

"So Charlie what would you like to do today?" she asked as she set his plate down in front of him and hers beside it.

<pause> "You know Kathy that's the same thing you asked me yesterday that set me off..."

"Yes it is Charlie; but things are different today aren't they?"

"Yeah they are and I have you to thank for that. Could we go over to that park again, I need to start exercising some; I've been sitting and laying around so much this summer, I feel really weak."

"We could 'walk' over there; remember Charlie, the doctor doesn't want you doing anything strenuous until that infection is gone."

"Yeah I know, but I just want all this over and be well again; I'm really tired of being sick all the time. That medicine makes me tired and sometimes especially those purple pills upset my stomach. Wish I didn't have to take those."

"Charlie, the purple ones are the ones that actually kill off the infection; the other ones are vitamins to keep your strength up. The purple ones are the ones that actually 'do' something to get you well, you can't miss taking those, or it will let the infection get worse."

"Nobody told me that. Course nobody's told be anything for months... just said here take these pills..."

"OK well you know you have four kinds of pills; the purple ones fight the infection; and those have to be taken on schedule; the white ones and light pink ones are vitamins and supplements to help keep your body's defenses up and the green ones are pain pills, but you haven't needed those for the last week."

"How come no one told me?"

"Did you ask?"

"No... asking questions like that got me in trouble..."

"Sorry, I would have told you; I thought you knew. Bad assumption I guess on my part. Things are different now Charlie, so if you have questions about anything, please ask me and if I know; I'll tell you and if I don't, then I'll find out for you."

"Thanks. Kathy I meant to tell you upstairs but got distracted when we were talking about you blushing. That outfit you're wearing today looks really good on you. Very pretty. Aren't those shorts uncomfortable though? They look awful tight, but they really look good. You've got really great legs you know."

Leaning over and kissing his cheek, "thanks Charlie, it's nice to know I didn't waste my time picking it out today. Yes, the shorts are tight, but they're stretchy so no they're not uncomfortable. And I wore them because I know a certain boy likes looking at my legs..." <kiss> "Now who's blushing Charlie?" she said with a smirk as he blushed nicely.

"Guess I'm busted..." he said blushing even more.

"Charlie it makes me happy that you like looking at me; it makes me feel really good that you like my body. I like yours too you know; that's why I was blushing upstairs. You looked incredibly sexy laying on that table like, that; I just wanted to kiss all of you and touch every single part of you."

"You're kidding right?"

"No I'm not. Charlie you are one incredibly beautiful boy. Why do you think all of us want to hold you and touch you so much? You're really hot looking and a nice guy on top of it. That's why we have a hard time keeping our hands off you. I just know I'm going to have big problems keeping the other girls away from you at school this year."

"You don't have to worry about that Kathy, girls don't talk to me; most don't even want to be around me..."

"That was the stupid girls at your old school Charlie; new school, new crop of eager young girls, and they all know about you already because of the 'Angels'. I'll probably need a baseball bat to keep them away."

"But Kathy I don't want a bunch of girls all over me. I just want girls I trust and who see the real me and like me anyways; to be the one's around me. You and Cindy and Carol and I have to include Mary but I really don't trust her much anymore; but especially you Kathy. You're the first girl who ever even wanted to know the real me and you're my best friend. I don't want other girls; I want to be with you Kathy; I know you care about me and that's all I've ever wanted. Someone who cares about me and likes to be with me." Getting up and moving beside her he pulled her head against his body and tilted her face up to him. "Kathy I just want to be with my best friend in the whole world and those others that I trust. I'll be polite to the others; I always try to do that. But you are the one girl I really want to be with as much as possible. I love you Kathy and I don't ever want to lose you."

Tears filled her eyes as she hugged him to her; "That's what I want to Charlie, to be with you as much as possible." <sniffle> "We'd better go on that walk right now or I don't think we'll get it done; because right now, I just want to kiss you until you can't breathe and hug the stuffing out of you." She said getting up and hugging him tightly, then leaning down and meeting his lips with hers. "I love you too Charlie, you're the best thing in my life." She whispered, then released him and guided him to the door with her arm around his shoulders and his around her waist.

They walked slowly just enjoying the sunny day, about a block East of his house, Kathy pointed to a large house on their left. "Carol lives there, want to stop in and say hi?"

"Do you think she's home?"

"Almost a certainty, she babysits the Johnson boys on Tuesdays so with her brother's there's probably five of them running around in there."

"Ok..." <pause> "She watches 5 of them at once? How can she do that?"

"Not very easily since at least three are in diapers and the other two are real hellions; it's a handful to be sure; but she seems to manage it alright."

"Guess her size helps with that, she could be scary to a little kid if she wanted to be. But she's really nice so I doubt she'd do that."

They walked over to the house and Kathy pushed the doorbell button and soon heard the door latch click. Carol opened the door and immediately smiled when she saw who was standing there. "Hey Charlie, Hi Kathy, come on in; don't mind the mess, I've got little boys all over the house today." She said motioning them past her and closing the door behind them. "What brings you over to my zoo today?"

"We're just out for a walk and thought we'd stop in and say hello," Charlie replied, looking up at the big girl, then held his arms up, and smiled when she leaned forward and he wrapped his arms around her neck as she picked him up into a hug; his legs closing around her waist. He kissed her cheek and laid his head on her shoulder and gave a big sigh; "I just had to thank you for helping Kathy get me free yesterday," he softly told her, kissing her cheek again. "I owe you big time for that. If I can ever do anything for you just let me know," he continued just above a whisper.

"Just let me cuddle you and maybe give you a bath every once in awhile, Charlie," she whispered back, "I love holding you in my arms and you're just so loveable."

"You can do that all you want Carol, you're really nice to me and you're a great person to be with," he whispered in reply. Just then two naked boys ran by chasing through the hallway.

"Slow down boys, I don't need anyone getting hurt today," she loudly called out to them.

<giggle> "OK Carol we'll behave!" one of them yelled back at her as he ducked around the corner.

"I mean it Craig!" she responded. "Jeeze he's a real terror!" she told Charlie and Kathy.

Putting Charlie back on his feet, she led them into the kitchen and offered them some iced tea, then all of them sat at the table. Just then three small boys wearing diapers came in asking for juice. One looked to be about two or three years old and the other two maybe five years old. The youngest got a 'sippy' cup and the other two got plastic glasses for their drinks. This one's my little brother Bobby and these two are Jimmy and Billy Johnson; I'm babysitting them today along with their brother Craig who ran by earlier with my other younger brother Michael."

"Seeing all these boys, I don't have any trouble believing your claim to 4,000 diapers per year Carol," Charlie observed. "How to you handle so many though?"

"Sit on them if I have to!" she replied laughing; "no really they're good boys and really not much of a problem, these three are usually pretty quiet and play together. It's Craig and Michael that I have to sit on. They manage to get more dings and bruises than I thought possible; especially when they play outside."

Just then the two naked little boys in question came running in, "You talking about us?" the taller of the two asked.

"As I matter of fact I am Michael, now you two go outside and play in the yard for awhile, I don't want you running through the house like that. Go mess in the sandbox or play on the swing set or something, I'll come get you when lunch is ready. And please try not to hurt yourselves for a change..."

"OK!" they both yelled in response and charged out the door squealing and laughing.

"I swear I use more band aids on those two; I can't believe how many scratches, scrapes, minor cuts, bumps and bruises they manage to accumulate while 'just playing', we have to buy them in the large economy size boxes!" she said as she watched the boys through the glass patio door.

Reaching out and patting her hand Charlie gave it a squeeze, "You're going to be a really great mother Carol; your kids will be really lucky. Most moms and babysitters worry over every little scratch or scrape and try to overprotect their kids."

"I'm just letting them be healthy young kids, Charlie, they never really hurt themselves seriously, just the normal little dings; but they need to be active and it's good exercise for them. Those two will never have to worry about being 'overweight' the way they burn off calories, and besides they need to have fun while they can."

"Like I said, your kids will be really lucky to have such a great mother..." he replied smiling.

"Well I'll certainly go into it with lots of experience!" she said grinning, "No having to learn child care for me; I'm a pro already."

"You really are Carol, five at once would drive me bonkers," Kathy interjected. "Carol, have you ever thought about doing that as a career? You seem to really enjoy taking care of kids. You could run a daycare center or preschool or something."

"Actually I have Kathy, I really love taking care of little kids and helping them with their problems and teaching them things. I thought about becoming a teacher, but I like dealing with the little ones even more, I'll have to check into what I'd need training and license wise on daycare and preschools though and I have no idea what those jobs pay. I really love little kids though..."

"Anyway you're really good at it Carol," Charlie added, "Even with bigger kids... like me... you really are..." he said with a blush.

"Oh Charlie, don't be embarrassed, I had fun taking care of you and you were a nice change of pace for me; I don't get many intellectual conversations with ones like I have today; and you were just a nice boy to spend time with. I'd do that again anytime."

"Charlie, we should get back on our walk, you said you wanted some exercise and we're not getting much sitting here," Kathy suggested.

"Yeah we should, I need to do that, I feel so weak and tired all the time. Carol? Nice seeing you again and thanks for the tea, but we need to get me moving..." he replied.

"Anytime Charlie..." she said smiling then returned to the front door with them and gave him another hug before opening the door.

"Stop over whenever you want Carol, I like talking to you and it get's a little lonely sometimes being at home all the time..." Charlie offered.

"I will Charlie, I love talking to you... take care now and don't overdo it; those medications are what's making you feel tired and you need to make sure you don't do too much or it just makes it harder to get well."

"I won't thanks Carol, see you..." he said as they walked back out to the street.

"She really will be a great mother Kathy, every time I got a little scrape or cut; I got grounded for a day or two for 'not being careful', kids need to be kids and minor little injuries come with being a kid."

"You're right Charlie, those little boo boo's are how kids learn their limits and also what 'not' to do. A little pain can be a learning experience as long as they don't really hurt themselves."

Further down the street they ran into Candy wearing her 'Charlie's Angels' shirt in shocking pink with black lettering, who came running over yelling "CHARLIE!" and scooped him off his feet in a hug holding him by the butt and planting kisses all over his face.

"Uh... Hi Candy... uh nice to see you again..." he managed to get out, his face beet red in embarrassment.

"Put him down Candy you're embarrassing the poor boy," Kathy said stepping up beside her.

"Oh sorry about that Charlie, but I'm just so excited to see you outside," she replied lowering him, letting him slide down her body until his feet hit the ground.

"It's OK Candy, I'm glad to be outside for a change." He responded looking up at her and deciding she had at least 6" in height over him, about as tall as his sister; but then everyone was taller than him.

"So what are you two doing? Kathy where's your shirt?" Candy asked clearly still excited and all but bouncing on her feet; which had an interesting effect as two breasts bounced a mere 10" from his face.

"In the wash Candy, I wore it yesterday and decided to wear this today. And we were just taking a walk over to the park, so he could get some exercise and fresh air."

"Oh well come around the house and sit for a minute, I'll get you some soda's and we can talk. We've gotten 10 more members for the 'Angels' since yesterday morning. It's all so exciting!"

Putting her hand on his back, she guided him around the house, it was obvious to him that they were making this stop whether they wanted to or not. The girl was just too excited to talk about the 'Angels' and wasn't going to hear anything but agreement in stopping. "Coke, Pepsi, Sprite, or Mountain Dew?" she asked as she guided Charlie to a chair on the patio.

"Diet Pepsi if you have one or just water would be fine if you don't," he replied, while Kathy wanted a Coke.

"Coming right up," she replied and ducked inside the house and was back within a minute and sat smiling at him. "Charlie the last count I got was 86 members, that's more than half of the girls in the 6th grade and we have 15 or 16 from the 5th grade and Cindy is actively recruiting more. This is all just so exciting! Everyone's pledging to end all the bullying and keep each other safe. School is going to be so great this year and it's all because of you. We really needed something to bring us all together and we got it when you asked to be held back for your safety. Those bullies are in for a real shock this year; we're not taking it anymore!"

"Well I'm glad everyone is going to help stop kids being abused and bullied; but I really don't want this to be about me," he softly replied. "Candy I'm sure other kids have been victims and everyone needs to be kept safe not just me."

"They have Charlie and that's why everyone is joining; we want everyone safe. At the rate we're going we'll have at least 85% of the girls in the school as members by the time school starts and boys are asking how they can join too. We'll have to figure out a different name for the boys though, I don't think many would want to wear an 'Angels' shirt; but that's a minor problem."

They talked for a while longer and finished their drinks before Kathy managed to convince Candy that they needed to continue on their walk. Charlie got another full body hug and several kisses before they left.

They walked on to the park and then sat for a few minutes, before starting back home, they'd only made it half way when Charlie stopped and just moaned "Oh shit!"

"What?" Kathy asked worried. Then saw what the problem was, his shorts were soaked in the front and pee was running down both legs. "It's ok Charlie, come on let's get you home and get you cleaned up. You just had too much to drink that's all... You had milk and juice and then that iced tea and a Pepsi, and no bathroom breaks..." She said pulling him against her. "Come on, no one's seen you except me and we can be home in just a couple of minutes. It's an accident Charlie, no big deal..." she said quickly pulling him towards his house.

"I didn't feel it coming Kathy," he whimpered as he quickly walked with her, "Why didn't I feel it?"

"I don't know Charlie, but it's not a disaster. The doctor said the medications have some affect on your control, making it more difficult for you to control things. That's probably what this is; just too much liquid and the medications. You took one of those purple pills at breakfast and that's the one that he was talking about. Now just don't be worrying about this, we're almost there and no one has seen anything."

By the time she got the door open he was softly crying and she just led him up to the bathroom and he stood there and let her remove his shoes, socks and shorts then she guided him into the shower to clean himself. She was waiting for him with a towel in her hands when he came out and helped him dry himself. "Do you want another pair of shorts?" she asked, "I'll go get them from your room."

"I don't have anymore," he replied standing there with a towel around him, "they're all in the laundry, that was my last pair..."

"OK then, we'll just go down and do a load of laundry and get them all clean for you. Do you want to wear something else?"

"I all I have is long pants and underwear... I could just wear my underwear I guess.. it's too hot for long pants... but then we'd have to stay here at the house..."

"Charlie you can wear whatever you want or nothing at all and it won't bother me either way, you know that. It's only 10:30 and it will only take about an hour to get all your clothes through the laundry and then you can wear whatever you want."

"Guess I'll just stay naked until the wash is done then... Mom and Mary haven't washed anything of mine since we moved here; since I was either in diapers or naked I didn't need many clothes."

"Ok we'll do that then, come on, let's go start a load in the washer and you can just relax until they're done."
