Rachel, Sara, Tara, and Fara all returned to the cabin, entering with a lengthy sigh. Tara made her way upstairs and Rachel and Sarah to their room as they unloaded some of the purchases they had made. Fara hovered nearby silently, Rachel still held on to the candy Fara had bought and kept it with her.

“Come dear let’s get you ready for a nap,” Rachel said with a tired smile. “You can’t very well sleep in that dress can you?” Fara nodded no and approached the two of them. Rachel nodded to Sarah and she began to help Fara out of her dress. “We’ll get you dressed for bed, and then give you your bottle before we put you down for a nap.” Fara gave an annoyed sigh at her very childish schedule. “Now we know you’ve had some issues sleeping before, so why don’t we try and help you sleep better.” Fara nodded with concern as Rachel dug into one of her suitcases. She had a feeling she wouldn’t like whatever Rachel’s accommodations were going to be. And she was very shortly proven to be right as Rachel fished out an adult sized onesie.

The onesie had everything you would expect from the baby sized version just bigger, most juvenile of all was the button crotch for easy diaper changes. The pattern on it was surprisingly pretty, it was purple and space themed, dotted with sleepy suns, moons, and stars.

“That was gonna be for me,” Sarah commented. “But I think you need it more.”

“What is that supposed to mean?” Fara questioned angrily.

“It means that this onesie will keep your diaper situated more comfortably while you sleep,” Rachel said holding the thing up for Rachel to see. “And you need to be comfortable more than Sarah needs to be cute.”

“But it’s so … baby,” Fara looked at the onesie with disgust.

“No. What’s baby is someone being cranky all day because they didn’t sleep well and then pouting when their friends try to help. Not that your pouting is going to make a difference. You’re wearing the onesie to bed and that’s final,” Rachel put her hand at her side in a striking authoritative mother pose. Fara gave a long aggravated huff as Sarah approached her with the onesie.

“Arms up,” Sarah commanded. Fara did her best to pout as she raised her arms and Sarah brought the onesie over her head. She began to button the snaps at the crotch when Rachel approached again.

“And one more thing,” Rachel spoke hopefully. She quickly clipped a pacifier onto Fara’s onesie before she could protest.

“What is this?” Fara questioned angrily, though the answer to her question was pretty obvious. It was a pacifier, scaled up from baby size similar to how her onesie was. The pacifier itself was just a simple purple but the clip that attached it to the onesie was about a foot long length of fabric with a pattern that matched the onesie.

“It’s to help you sleep,” Rachel answered as if it was obvious. “It works just as well for adults as it does for babies.” In fact this would work better as Rachel and laced the teat of the pacifier with a small amount of a mild narcotic. Nothing that would have a real effect on Fara or be addictive, but enough that she wouldn’t want to take the pacifier out once it was put in. Which is something Rachel did before Fara could complain any longer.

As soon as the pacifier was placed inside Fara’s mouth she instinctively began to suckle, once the drug hit her tongue she found herself unwilling to take it out.

“There see. It’s nice isn’t it?” Rachel smiled as she began to make Fara’s bottle.

“Yeah you really like that thing don’t you Fara,” Sarah added. Fara blushed as she still was unable to spit the thing out. “It’s ok they can be nice when you’re stressed,” Sarah patted Fara on the head.

Fara stood where she was, trying her best to stop suckling on the pacifier and spit it out, but found herself unable to. The sensation was so calming. It felt natural. She felt like the only reason she wanted to spit it out was to save face, left alone she would happily suckle the pacifier for hours.

“All right sweetie finish your bottle and then you can have your paci back,” Rachel took Fara by the hand and led her to the bed and sat her over her lap. She removed the pacifier from Fara’s mouth, and Fara almost whined. The only reason she didn’t was that Rachel quickly replaced one nipple with another as the put the bottle in Fara’s mouth. Fara suckled immediately, it felt to her like she never stopped. Rachel smiled as Fara drank her bottle, and Fara found that she did too. For once today she didn’t seem annoyed by the world, she wondered why this was the thing to bring her that peace.

It wasn’t long before Fara finished the bottle and after a few burps she found her mouth again occupied by the pacifier as Rachel popped it back in having stealthily applied more of the drug to it while Fara was busy with her bottle.

“Now let’s put you down for your nap sweet pea,” Rachel took Fara’s hand and led her to her room. Tara happened to wander down the stairs in time to see Rachel lead Fara clad in a onesie and diaper and suckling on her pacifier, being put down for a nap by Rachel. Rachel and Sarah were quick if nothing else. “Here we go sweetie,” Rachel helped Fara into her bed by gently patting her diapered bottom. Fara crawled in as she was fairly tired. It turned Rachel was right, the onesie was super comfortable and the pacifier was super soothing. She was almost ready to fall asleep right then and there. “Now were’ going to lock you in here for two and a half hours,” Rachel said shutting the gate to Fara’s crib like bed. “That’s long enough for a good nap.” Fara was drifting off to sleep and didn’t protest at the concept of being locked in for that long. “Sleep well,” Rachel left as Fara started to burrow into her covers.

Rachel quietly left Fara’s room shutting the door behind her.

“Wow that’s really amazing,” Tara mused as she followed Rachel.

“Yes it is,” Rachel commented. “We couldn’t have done it without your help of course.”

“Don’t mention it.” Tara followed Rachel to her and Sarah’s room, stopping at their door. Rachel grabbed the tablet that controlled Fara’s room and began to get to work. Contrary to what had been played earlier, Rachel selected a gentle background track that would help Fara have a deep fulfilling sleep and help encourage happy feelings when she woke up. Fara would then assume her good sleep and good was because of the addition of her onesie and pacifier, and opt to use those in the future. While that conclusion wouldn’t be entirely untrue, Rachel was amplifying the comfortable effects of these items with ambient white noise. “What now? Can you break her down any more?”

“No,” Rachel said quickly. She put the tablet down having finished her work. “But we don’t need to. Now that she’s been brought down to this level forcefully, we need her to see the joy and peacefulness of it so she won’t want to stop.”

“We’re in the home stretch now,” Sarah added.

“And don’t worry your reward is still waiting for you.”

“Provided nothing happens from now on to get in the way.”

“Please you’re all good,” Tara smirked. “A.J. doesn’t want to know what’s going on, Patty is to free love to say anything about it, and Riley is starting to drink your kool-aide. She thinks that Fara is into this stuff.”

“Well she will be into it before long,” Sarah countered. “Until then Riley remains the biggest threat to stopping us, even if she’s starting to doubt herself.”

“You’ll keep her out of our way if you want that reward,” Rachel reminded.

“I’ll do what I can,” Tara shrugged.

“Well do us a favor and entertain our dear baby if she wakes up early,” Rachel smiled. “Dealing with a grumpy baby has a way of tiring one out.”

“You want me to be your baby sitter? I’m so honored.”

“Maybe not that far, but we do appreciate the help.” Rachel shut the door with a smile leaving Tara on her own.

Tara curiously peeked into Fara’s room. She was sleeping soundly, suckling on her pacifier and curled up into her blankets. Tara could make out the faint sounds playing over the speakers, but only because she knew it was playing. She shut the door, not wanting to test the sound’s effects on her, and decided to watch some tv. Maybe something intelligent now that she was the only person around.

After a few hours Annabelle, Riley, and Patty had returned to the cabin.

“Finally found something!” Annabelle announced loudly as she entered, presenting a medium sized horse statue. Tara was quick to shush.

“People are trying to sleep A.J.”

“They were serious about that?” Patty asked loudly.

“Its fine you can show them all later,” Riley consoled Annabelle.

“Took so long to find something reasonably priced and no one is even around to appreciate it.” Annabelle set the statue down on the coffee table in the living room before sitting herself down on the couch.

Sarah opened the door to her and Rachel’s room with a yawn.

“I thought I heard you come in,” Sarah sported a tank top and sweat pants an outfit to match her just woken up expression.

“Check it out,” Annabelle proudly held up her horse statue. “Fer only 30 dollars. An acceptable price.”

“Wow you really did it,” Sarah said impressed. “I gotta go check on Fara.” Sarah excused herself into Fara’s room.

It seemed Fara was also awoken by Annabelle’s entrance, but she was still a little groggy. She suckled her pacifier in a daze. Sarah smiled in at her.

“Go back to sleep dear you still have 30 minutes left in you nap time,” Sarah said leaving the room. Fara wasn’t awake enough to be mad at the predicament and simply turned over in a half sleep.

“Oh is Fara awake,” Patty said excitedly. “A.J.’s gotta show her the sick affordable horse statue.”

“She is but there’s still 30 minutes left of her nap time,” Sarah corrected quickly. “Given her attitude today she probably could use it.”

“Indeed,” Rachel said emerging from the room. It seems she took the time to change out of her pajamas into the clothes she had worn out earlier. “Now that we are rested though we can prepare for her worst.”

“Hopefully that won’t happen though,” Sarah said with a giggle.

Fara eventually awoke completely, and could hear her friends on the other side of the wall chatting. She still suckled on her pacifier as she stretched and involuntarily wet her diaper. The onesie worked well to keep the diaper from sagging as she wet it, but it also meant that Fara could feel it more. Strangely she wasn’t as bothered by that as she would have been earlier. Nor was she bothered by being locked where she was. It must not be the end of her nap time yet. She felt strangely at peace with just waiting for Sarah or Rachel to come check on her. Even though the pacifier she was suckling had somehow lost a lot of its earlier appeal, but it was still relaxing and oddly soothing, and since no one was around she could enjoy it without embarrassment.

It wasn’t much longer before Rachel appeared in Fara’s room.

“Well good afternoon Fara,” Rachel sang. “I do hope you’re in a better mood.” Fara nodded unaware that the pacifier was still in her mouth. Rachel smiled as she opened the door to Fara’s crib. It seemed her soothing audio had the intended effect, Fara was her usual bubbly self and then some. “Why don’t we go sit with our friends dear,” Rachel took Fara’s hand and lead her out into the living room. Annabelle and Riley were a little shocked to see the onesie clad Fara suckling on her pacifier though Patty seemed to play it off.

“Aww that outfit is just precious Fara,” Patty said excitedly giving Fara a hug.

“Tanks,” Fara spoke but forgot about the pacifier in her mouth. “Thanks,” She repeated after spitting the pacifier out.

“Aww no keep it in it totally completes the look.”

“Come dear,” Rachel picked up the pacifier that was thankfully attached to Fara’s onesie and popped it back into Fara’s mouth. Fara blushed, but Patty’s smile somewhat encouraged her to keep it in. “Why don’t you cuddle on the couch while we figure out what to have for dinner.” Rachel sat down on the couch and laid Fara’s head down on her lap and began to gently stroke her hair. The feeling felt divine to Fara, and to a lesser extent Rachel. Sarah soon joined the two of them leaning against Rachel’s other shoulder. The three of them sat as a mostly quiet unit while the others debated on what was the best place to eat.

“Why don’t I just pick us up some sandwiches,” Riley offered. Fara winced a little, Riley’s voice brought her out of the blissful haze she was in for a moment, and made her aware of how ridiculous she must look. “Hey don’t get up,” Riley said to Fara thinking she was getting up. “I got this. What do you guys want Rachel?”

“How generous Riley,” Rachel moved Fara’s head back down as she talked. Fara was a little shocked at Riley. She seemed to not only have lost her antagonism, but seemed to be playing along. Rachel had given riley both the order and some money to cover it with Fara barely noticing, lost in thought and the bliss of Rachel’s gentle petting.

Riley returned before too long with sandwiches for everyone. Everyone ate around the table in the living room and talked. Fara wasn’t bothered at all by her state of dress as the friends conversed, she even spoke a few choice words as well, though she did mostly remain quietly cuddled with Rachel and Sarah. After dinner and a movie everyone went off to their rooms, Fara joined Rachel and Sarah in theirs for a much needed diaper change. Rachel patted part of the bed with her hand and Fara obediently laid down where she indicated.

“Riley sure seems to be in better spirits about things,” Rachel talked as she opened the snaps on Fara’s onesie.

“Yeah it was nice to not have to fight with her,” Fara blushed as Rachel removed the used diaper from Fara, throwing in a nearby trash can.

“You seem to be as well. I hope you don’t mind me commenting on how just adorable you look with your onesie and paci,” Rachel cooed as she placed a new diaper next to Fara. “Lift up dear,” Rachel gave Fara’s thighs a gentle slap, and Fara robotically raised her butt for Rachel to slide the new diaper under her.

“Oh. Thanks I guess,” Fara blushed while Rachel applied baby powder.

“Careful I think your mommy is showing,” Sarah teased from the bathroom.

“Well I won’t lie, you do certainly scratch that itch at times Fara,” Rachel taped up Fara’s new diaper. “I hope it’s not a bother if I dote on you a little.”

“No it’s fine,” Fara blushed more. “Actually it was kinda nice.”

“Don’t be embarrassed by it,” Sarah said happily as Rachel began to button up Fara’s onesie. “Everyone loves some petting every now and then. Especially from mistress she’s pretty good at it.”

“A glowing endorsement,” Rachel ruffled Sarah’s head as she began to make another of Fara’s bottles. “I am happy it doesn’t bother you though Fara. I hope you won’t mind if you indulge me a little from time to time.”

“I guess that’s fine,” Fara positioned herself in Rachel’s lap and opened her mouth for the nipple of the bottle.

“Fantastic,” Rachel stuck the nipple into Fara’s mouth, and Fara immediately began to drink. This time Rachel gently petted Fara’s head as she drank from the bottle. The gentle pets and the milk hitting her tongue sent Fara into another sea of gentle bliss.

“Such a cutie,” Sarah said quietly as she sat on the other side of Rachel, laying her head on Rachel’s shoulder. Fara blushed at the comment but couldn’t help but feel warmth at the new found closeness.
