Fara and Rachel emerged from the bathroom. Fara was in high spirits as she usually was after a diaper change. The others were all ready to go having finished their snacks and resting.

“Looks like everyone is ready?” Rachel spoke the statement like a question.

“If you two are,” Riley answered.

“Yeah yeah let’s go. We haven’t even gotten to the big tank yet,” Fara moved her arms wide as she spoke, to illustrate the size of the tank. Her leash bounced around as she did and as she moved around most of her diaper could be seen. Her excitement could not help but come off as completely childish.

The group continued on, in much the same way as before. Fanning out among the rooms but moving between the rooms as a group. Riley and Tara found themselves looking at a tank of bioluminescent jellyfish together.

“Can I ask you something Tara?” Riley spoke when Rachel had lead Fara out of earshot.

“What’s up?” Tara was more on edge than she let on. Riley was by far the most obtrusive to Fara’s new childish standing and the most likely to see through Rachel and Sarah’s ruse. She would have to be careful with how she answered Riley if she wanted to keep the ruse going and her reward intact.

“Do the other people here seem weird to you?”

“How do you mean?” Tara was just as oblivious to the fact that Rachel had paid these people off as Riley was, and until Riley had pointed it out she hadn’t even noticed.

“Well like, no one’s freaking out about Fara running around on a leash with her diaper hanging out.”

“Well if Rachel called ahead like she said then they would all be expecting it.”

“Yeah but they seem into it you know. It’s just weird. Even if I knew it was happening I don’t think I’d dote on her like some of them do.” Tara pondered quickly for a moment. Riley was right their reactions weren’t normal. Most people would just choose not to interact with something like this. Of course Riley couldn’t begin to suspect that she was actually right.

“I dunno look at her,” Tara gestured to Fara who was excitedly pointing a seahorse out to Rachel and Sarah. “Maybe she’s just that cute. Besides isn’t it great that this is working out for her. She probably never gets to express this part of herself so freely. We should be happy it’s going so well.”

“Yeah I guess you’re right,” Riley sighed in defeat. “What do I know anyway? This stuff is all crazy to me.” Riley said as she moved on to a different tank.

The group moved on to the highlight of the aquarium, the large main tank that had the largest fish. There was nothing else in the room besides a large window into this tank and some theatre style seating. The girls moved up close to the tank and marveled at all of the aquatic life contained within. It was even enough to distract from Fara who had up until this point been the most distracting thing in the aquarium.

Fara was almost annoyed when the urge to pee hit her again, so she almost instantaneously decided to wet her diaper. She didn’t care that everyone could tell, and it didn’t matter anyway. Wetting her diaper was an eventuality and she’d rather get it over with and get back to admiring the large fish. As she felt the warmth spread around her, Fara thought for a moment that it actually felt kind of nice. When she could finally strip back all of the embarrassment about the situation the feeling of wetting a diaper was sort of comforting. She went back to looking at the fish before really processing that she had started to like the feeling of wetting her diaper.

No one even noticed that Fara had wet herself as they were all also taken aback by the majesty of how all the different fish moved. It was only when they all finally started to move away that they noticed, and much like before none of them, even Patty, felt particularly comfortable pointing it out.

“Oh dear wet again already,” Rachel of course was the exception. “You’re really quite the faucet today.”

“Must be all the water,” Fara giggled. “I don’t need a change though, let’s keep going.” Fara smiled and tugged against her lead.

“Now wait just a minute sweetie don’t try to run off,” Rachel scolded. The others were a little shocked at how well Fara was taking this. Openly talking about and even joking about how she had just wet herself

“I guess she really did want this,” Annabelle said as the other four hung back while Sarah Rachel and Fara went ahead.

“I guess so,” Riley said downtrodden. Annabelle gave her a comforting pat on the back.

“She seems so happy and carefree,” Patty giggled. “She’s really come out of her shell.”

“With an outfit like that you kinda have to,” Annabelle retorted.

“Does it make you uncomfortable A.J.?” Tara asked as the group moved to the final room. It was a smaller room with several touch pools. Rachel, Fara, and Sarah were around the closest one. Fara giggled as something brushed past her finger and then Rachel dragged her over to the next pool.

“A little not gonna lie,” Annabelle crossed her arms.

“Same,” Riley echoed. “I mean I’m glad she’s finding herself or whatever, it’s all just so strange.”

“You two need to open your minds more,” Patty donned her rare scolding voice.

“I don’t think I’m ever gonna open my mind enough to get it Patty,” Annabelle admitted. “It’s her choice though.”

“She definitely seems happy,” Riley watched as Fara eagerly tugged Rachel toward the gift shop.

“Well if she’s happy then maybe we should just stay out of her way,” Tara suggested.

“Yeah maybe.”

It was finally the end of the aquarium, and everyone found themselves perusing the overpriced goods on sale. It took some doing, but Rachel managed to get Fara to let her buy a small gift for her, and Fara picked out a small stuffed sea turtle. Eventually everyone left the aquarium. Much like when they entered, Rachel hurried Fara along to the car, reaching it well before the others who were discussing all the things at the aquarium as they walked. Rachel quickly strapped Fara into the car seat. Fara fussed a little at how fast this had happened but as usual didn’t have much say. The others managed to catch up as Fara had been secured in her seat and all huddled around the open door, conveniently blocking Fara from the view of others.

“Well where to now?” Tara was the first to ask.

“We gotta few before supper time,” Annabelle mentioned. “Reckon we could do something else before then.”

“I’m down.” Riley agreed.

“I’m afraid we’ll have to decline,” Rachel said sorrowfully. “Fara definitely needs a nap.”

“A nap?” Fara whined. Rachel quickly popped Fara’s pacifier in her mouth.

“Yes a nap. You have been well behaved today and I’d like to keep you from getting cranky and ruining that.”

“I nah cwan-e,” Fara spoke through the pacifier.

“You sound pretty cranky to me right now,” Rachel gave a stern look and Fara knew there was no point in arguing any further. Fara rolled her eyes in defeat and suckled her pacifier.

“Well if you gals are down we may go do something else,” Annabelle suggested. Tara, Patty, and Riley all mumbled in agreement.

“Well have fun everyone,” Sarah smiled. “You know where we’ll be if you need us.” The two groups waved and separated once again.

“I wanted to go with them,” Fara pouted in the back seat as Rachel began to drive off toward the cabin.

“Fara dear you’ve been very good today,” Rachel said seriously. “Please don’t ruin it now with a tantrum. Be a good girl and put you pacifier back in.” Fara pouted but stuck the pacifier in as instructed. “Good girl.”

“You’ll thank us later,” Sarah tried to cheer Fara up. “Those girls are gonna be beat when they get back, they just don’t know it.” This tactic did not appear to improve Fara’s mood.

“Did you have a good time at the aquarium?” Rachel asked in a less stern tone.

“Yeah,” Fara said hesitantly.

“Which one was your favorite?” Sarah asked steering Fara along. “I liked the sharks.”

“Of course you would like the sharks my fierce little pet,” Rachel giggled.

“I’m plenty fierce when I need to be.”

“We’ll see about that. I think I liked the beluga’s best. What about you sweetie?” Rachel encouraged Fara to speak.

“I unno dat I haf one,” Fara spoke through her pacifier again. “I wike dem aww.”

“Yes you certainly were excited for everything. I’m glad we kept you on a leash, we would have left you behind without it.” Fara blushed and looked down. “See I do these things for a reason.”

“She looked cute as a button too. I bet that had something to do with it.” Sarah added. This time Fara blushed with a smile on her face.

“That is true. Despite its effectiveness you were very well behaved so I think you can go without for the next outing.” The next outing would not be very conducive to the leash so Rachel wasn’t going to put Fara in one anyway. “And I promised you could pick out where we eat at too so be thinking about what you want.”

“Ice cweam!” Fara shouted jokingly.

“Ice cream is not a proper dinner dear,” Rachel giggled.

“I dunno,” Sarah added. “I think I can get a hot fudge sundae big enough to be a meal.”

“I’m sure you could, but we need a real dinner.” Rachel said playfully. Fara giggled. “We can get you ice cream as a dessert but think of some actual food you want dear.”

“Oki,” Fara said quickly.

“Good girl.”

The three finally made their way back to the cabin and inside. Fara had almost nodded off on the ride back, and Rachel and Sarah weren’t far off. It certainly was an exciting day and they were all feeling it, but they had a little girl to get ready for bed.

“Ok let’s get you out of this and changed for bed,” Rachel said as they entered the cabin. She still held on to Fara’s lead and led her over to the master bedroom to get her ready for a nap. “Sarah go get the key to all these locks please.” Rachel ordered as she squished Fara’s diaper against her. “And another diaper change for you little leaky lady.” Fara giggled as Rachel laid her down on the bed and got to working changing her diaper. The whole thing had become remarkably routine and Rachel made quick but caring work taping Fara snugly into a new diaper. “There is that better?”

“Yeah,” Fara smiled as she sat up. “It feels so good after being wet for a while.”

“I know what you mean,” Sarah gave a knowing smile as she handed Rachel the key to all of the locks on Fara’s harness.

“Well at least you’ve learned to like them,” Rachel said as she started undoing all of the locks on Fara’s chest harness. “Since you’re going to be in them for a while it’s good that you can find them comfortable.” Rachel finished removing all of the locks and removed the chest harness from Fara.

“Mhmm once you get past the whole diaper thing they actually feel really comfy, even wetting them feels kinda good,” Fara blushed. “I guess I can see why some people like it.”

“So that explains why you wet so much today,” Rachel teased. Fara blushed a little. Rachel removed the dress from Fara leaving her standing in just her diaper. “All right let’s get you off to nap time.”

“Like this?” Fara covered herself with her arm.

“You’ll be fine dear. While this dress is adorable it’s definitely not sleep attire, and I don’t want to put you in a onesie now only to take it off when we go out for food. You’ll be fine in just your diaper. We’ll make sure no one peeps on you.” Fara hung her head in resignation as Rachel scooted her along to her room by patting her diaper. “Ok you’ve got your paci, a bottle if you get thirsty, and your little turtle friend from today.” Rachel listed the items off as she handed them to Fara who was on the inside of her crib. “Same as before we’ll come let you out in a couple of hours. Try to get some sleep.” Rachel gently shut the door to the crib. “There safe and sound and not running around.”

“But running around is fun,” Fara fake whined.

“And that is why it’s good you don’t know how to open this door,” Rachel booped Fara on the nose with a giggle. “Try and get some sleep sweetie.”

“Ok,” Fara said with a sigh.

“Good girl, see you in a while.” Fara was starting to snuggle into her blankets as Rachel left. Rachel lingered to watch the girl as she cuddled the little stuffed turtle and suckled her pacifier. Once Fara was still she left.

Rachel smiled as she made her way back to her own room. They were so close, it would only be a little while longer and Fara would be their baby girl. Rachel was giddy with excitement and she was sure that Sarah was as well. They both needed an outlet for this energy, and Sarah had been a little bratty all day. Needless to say Rachel and Sarah would not be spending their nap time sleeping.
