The three girls excused themselves from the lounge and headed upstairs rapidly. In Jennifers room it looked like any normal 18 year old’s room, random band posters dotted the walls a tv, music system and games consol lay in one corner. A wardrobe and desk complete with laptop. Molly smirked. It felt strange to still be on the verge of being a grown up yet still potty training. Jennifer crossed the room and turned on her TV. Some reality program was on and Jennifer clapped happily.
“Yes it’s only just started, I thought we were going to miss it.”
Molly slumped onto the bed and rolled her eyes to the ceiling as Sarah rushed over to the beanbag that Jennifer had flopped into and settled herself on the end of it to watch the program too. Sarah and Jennifer talked non stop about this stupid program about how Bradley and Joe were always fighting to get laid with that Lulu girl and that there was always a cat fight between Lulu and Rachel. It bored the pants off of Molly who couldn’t care less about reality T.V. It was a waste of space and time and it was what her two friends argued about the most. Her friends weren’t paying her any attention as she pulled her reality altering device from her pocket at pressed the button without hesitation. It wasn’t right to be in the midst of potty training whilst still watching T.V filled with filth and pointless arguments and drama.
“18 year old’s prefer watching children’s television”
She said smuggly giggling as the sickening feeling swept over her and the darkness swamped her then settled back into normality. Her two friends were still arguing but it was about which colour Teletubby was the best. Feeling full of total happiness Molly rushed over to her two friends and threw herself into the middle of the bean bag causing the two other girls to be catapulted from the beanbag and squeal in shock at the sudden intrusion.
“Everyone knows the red one is the best teletubby”
Molly giggled happy to be part of one of her friend’s arguments for once.
The evening progressed as it grew dark outside, the pizza came and they ate it happily amongst themselves in Jennifer’s room as they watched cartoons and played video games. Soon it was getting close to bedtime. Jennifers mom yelled up from downstairs.
“Lights out in twenty minutes girls its almost 11pm”
All three made a collective “AWWWW!” noise but Molly and Sarah scrambled to their bags to get their pyjamas.
Molly opened her bag and gasped in delight as she pulled a baby pink footed sleeper from her bag. She hugged the fleecy garment almost audibly purring at the soft feel of it. She pulled it out and took the opportunity to put her recorder in her bag, she doubted she would need it for the rest of the night.
She turned round and grinned at Jennifer and Sarah only there were tears in Jennifer’s eyes. Molly had never seen Jennifer cry before and the look on her friend’s face startled her.
“Jennifer are you okay”
Jennifer was quiet but shook her head.
“Whats the matter?”
It suddenly occured to Molly what was up.
“Did…Did you have an accident”
Jennifer just burst into a sob. Molly rushed over. Sarah sat on the beanbag, knowing how it felt. Jennifer put her hand over her mouth to stop the crying and she looked at Molly her eyes pleading.
“Molly, mom can’t know about this. I stayed dry for three whole days. If she finds out i’m wet, it’ll be reset and I won’t be in big girl pants for ages. Trade with me. Please!”
“WHAT?”
“Trade with me. You’re still dry right? Lets swap. That way mom will think it was you that wet yourself and not me”
“But…But I didn’t wet myself you did”
Jennifer started to cry again. Molly sighed and unbuckled her overalls. Jennifer was lucky that Molly was such a nice person and she guessed she owed Jennifer since it was her device that had made it so the teenagers were in the midst of potty training.
Soon Molly was just standing in her pink t-shirt and pull-up.
“Jenny take yours off” She said quietly.
