Tony felt the cool sensation of the powder.
He did as he was told and felt the brief being drawn up between his legs and fastened on one side and then the other.
The smell of baby powder wafted up from his crotch and reached his nose as she finished.
Then he realized what she had done.
She had diapered him!
He rose from the bed in a panic and tried to get up saying,
“No! You can’t do this to me. I’m not a baby.
Please don’t make me wear diapers!”
Rose held him easily on the bed with one hand as she sat down beside him.
She put her arm around his shoulders and said,
“the doctor told me that the medication will make you sleep very heavily.
You won’t wake up if you need to go to the bathroom.
He told me to put you in protective briefs while you sleep.
You’ll wet the sheets if I don’t.”
“These aren’t ‘protective’ briefs, they’re diapers!”, he told her mournfully.
Rose had to admit to herself that in truth, he was right.
They were diapers.
But she didn’t want his feelings to be hurt any more than they had to be.
She told him half-truthfully,
“when little babies wear them, they’re diapers. But adults have to wear them too at times, then they’re called ‘protective’ briefs.
“He looked at her trying to find the deception in her words and said,
“You lied to me! You told me you were putting body powder on me when you were really putting baby powder on me!”
