Notrix's Community Service
Did this for myself! Just a quick free-write. Did this in about 2-3 hours. Was just having fun. This is the first time I've ever written my own fursona into a story and I'm really happy with the overall product. I hope I didn't make too many mistakes, as I didn't really go back and revise much.
It was another quiet, boring day as Notrix walked down the dimly lit
hallway of the preschool. A stormy and otherwise melancholy Winter
afternoon made the whole building feel especially small, and the 14 year
old cat/raccoon hybrid loathed every minute of her time there already.
It had been a long day at school, and now she was stuck being there for
the next few hours - and she couldn't stand it! Sighing, she rolled her
eyes and looked at the time as she reached the end of the silent hall.
It was in the middle of the afternoon, and certainly after traditional
operating hours - but she absolutely had to be there, or else she'd be
in even worse trouble than she already was...
Notrix stopped and stared at the brightly lit and colorfully decorated
preschool room through a window on the door. Everything about it
screamed innocence and childish happiness - but Notrix wasn't feeling so
enthusiastic. The young teen wasn't there for fun, after all. Before
knocking on the heavy wooden door, she pulled out and unfolded a piece
of paper from her pocket and stared down with spite.
"Community Service Log," it read, with big, bold, intimidating letters.
Indeed, Notrix had gotten in trouble - and now she was learning her
lesson the hard way. It was only a few days ago she had gotten caught
stealing diapers from this same exact room. It was all very complicated,
and it was horrible to think that she had actually betrayed the trust
of a few people that meant so much to her. She didn't mean to disappoint
her mom or anyone else - but she couldn't help but try. She had been
in-and-out of trouble several times, but never before had she done
something so stupid and embarrassing.
When asked why she was stealing diapers from the preschool, she insisted
they were for someone else. She lied and insisted over and over that
she was just trying to keep them for her next babysitting job! Notrix
sometimes babysat on the weekends, and what better cover-up could there
have been? The truth was much stranger, and she scoffed at the thought
of what could have happened had they not believed her. The diapers were
actually for her - not anyone else! How could she possibly have
explained that?
"Hi there, you must be Notrix!" she suddenly heard.
The cat nearly jumped out of her own skin at the sudden surprise!
Standing behind her, a tall adult had snuck up behind her while she
wasn't paying any attention. She was a caretaker; a tall, young, white
rabbit with beautiful flowing hair and a friendly face. Hanging from her
neck was a lanyard that revealed the adult's name. Hanging over her
shoulder was a satchel with what looked like a bunch of boring books,
binders, and notes.
"O-Oh! I'm sorry to have scared you!" the adult apologized, chuckling as Notrix regained her composure.
Suddenly, the shy cat was in the company of others - and the attitude
that both protected her and got her in so much trouble began to reveal
itself.
"Yeah - that's me. Who else would I be? Duh," the teen prissily scoffed.
The preschool worker laughed, shook her head, and began to unlock the
door into the classroom. It wasn't a good idea to be smart with the
person in charge of your community service hours, but Notrix couldn't
help but give off the tough exterior she was notorious for.
"Now, now - no need to be sour. I appreciate your help even though I
know you don't want to be here," the adult explained as they walked in
together.
Notrix gazed around the preschool and observed. The whole room was meant
to house plenty of playful, cheery cubs - and it seemed to be settled
in quite well. Kiddish paintings, posters, and miscellaneous decorations
lavished the brightly colored walls. Most of the floor was covered in
soft carpet and playmats, as well as messily scattered toys. The room
had a big round table to sit at with little chairs, easels to paint or
draw on, chalkboards to teach on, and all sorts of things that made even
the nervous and bitter Notrix smile. It was truly the happiest and
safest place for cubs to be in that Notrix had ever seen.
Of course, one of the first things Notrix had stared directly at was the
changing table in the corner. Diapers stacked up underneath the
platform where a cub would be getting changed, and flashes of what had
happened a few days ago played in Notrix's mind. Of course, the teacher
stared over at Notrix and knew exactly what was going on.
"I heard all about why you're here, Notrix. I'm not going to belittle
you or discipline you anymore than I'm sure you already have. Let's just
do the right thing and get through this," she said to the anxious teen.
Notrix shrugged.
Her punishment was simple; she was to come in and clean the place up
however it needed to be - not just today, but for several other days,
too. She'd help him put up the decorations, organize the toys, clean the
tables, or do anything else that seemed like petty grunt work while the
teacher was doing more important things. It seemed like a terrible
time, but it was an honest way to pay for trying to steal. Her mom and
her principal were all going to verify that she was doing the things she
was supposed to, so there was no getting out of this one anyway.
"S-So... what do you want me to do?" Notrix asked.
The teacher idly walked over to his desk and began sorting papers out.
"Hmm... you see all those toys all over the floor? Can you start by
putting them all in that big toy chest over on the other side of the
playmat? Anything that doesn't fit can just go in those containers next
to it," the teacher said.
Notrix understood completely, and sighed as she saw the enormous mess
that the kidfurs had made earlier during the day. Blocks, action
figures, dolls, and generic toys were seemingly tossed randomly all over
the place. It all started with a simple toy dinosaur; she scooped up
the toy in her paw, and tossed it into the chest like she was
instructed. Next was a pony; a light blue one with rainbow colored hair.
She recognized it from TV, and kind of liked the show - though she
never dared admit it. Tossing the pony into the toy chest, she resumed
her cleaning duties in silence.
But although she stayed quiet on the outside, there was nothing quiet
inside of her head. Each toy she picked up, she thought about it. She
thought about why she was there in the first place; not because of her
punishment, but why she did what she did. It was because of the diapers,
but she wanted to wear them because she loved the idea of being little
again! It was a deep, dark secret of her's - something she was certain
others wouldn't ever understand. She wasn't all bad, just rough around
the edges. She was sensitive but had to be tough. The last thing she
wanted was to be another target!
Notrix hated doing chores and hated the fact that she had to be there in
the preschool because of her punishment - but she loved being there
otherwise. The bright colors, the toys, and kiddish happiness of
everything - she loved the idea of being one of those kids and playing
and having fun again! It was a time of innocence; something she felt she
was losing every day. She was growing up fast and she hated it.
Everything she learned about the adult world was terrifying and
intimidating - that was why she acted so tough.
You had to be tough in a world like this, after all. How much better
would it be if she could just be taken care of her like a baby? She
loved to draw, color, write, and watch stuff on TV that was meant for
kidfurs much younger than her. Of course, she liked the idea of being
fed from a bottle, wearing diapers, and just being a baby again - was
that really so bad? She knew other kidfurs would think so, and so would
adults. They wouldn't understand why feeling littler made her feel so
much better because it hardly made sense to her! It was her own little
secret that she kept to herself. And so she did.
But it wasn't the only secret she had. Notrix also loved to be bold, and
on a day like this, she was especially so. In the silence as she
cleaned, a soft, quiet crinkling could be heard from the diaper she had
put on this morning before school. It was a daring move, but Notrix
loved wearing diapers. It was one of her favorite things to do, after
all - and wearing one right now, where she was, brought her a bit closer
to what she wanted. She thought about what it must be like to be able
to wear freely and be herself without any consequence...
Of course, as bold and daring as little Notrix was, she was also foolish
to believe her secret was well hidden. In the silence, as she walked
back-and-forth to clean the room, crinkling could be heard with her
every step. To most, it wouldn't be noticed - but to someone experienced
as the preschool teacher - it was a subtle giveaway to what was going
on. At first, the adult thought they were simply hearing things in her
head. But as she stopped what she was doing and listened in, she knew
without a doubt that Notrix was wearing a diaper.
The signs were all there; the way she walked with a strange waddle, the
rustling as she moved around, and he could even see a bulged outline of
it as she bent down to grab something from the floor. The diaper was
thick and not easily hidden from someone like the teacher, and suddenly,
everything began to make sense. Why else would she have been stealing
diapers from the preschool? The adult shook her head and chuckled to
herself in disbelief; why didn't she see it or think about it sooner?
Unbeknownst to Notrix, her secret was poorly kept. The adult in the room
was well onto her. But there was more that she was not aware of. As the
teacher idly did the paperwork, she kept a small eye on her - and
thought about how he could possibly reveal to Notrix that she wasn't the
only kidfur that wore diapers. Indeed, it was a small town. The
grownups had kept a close eye on their kin and knew what was going on in
their lives - and wearing diapers for fun or wanting to be babied
wasn't as outlandish or uncommon as it may have been in the past. It was
a secret to those who did not know, but those who did know - knew that
it was completely harmless. How could he possibly explain without
scaring her? It began as the teacher cleared her throat. Notrix stopped
and looked at the adult from the far side of the room, wondering if she
had done it to get Notrix's attention.
"Yeah?" Notrix asked, tossing a toy into the toybox. She was mostly finished by now.
"Um... Notrix, can I ask you a question?" the adult began.
Of course, the teen just shrugged.
"...why did you steal diapers from my classroom?" she then asked.
Notrix's heart stopped, and the angsty teen flicked the hair out of her
eyes only for her bangs to cover one of them all over again. She was put
on the spot...
"I... thought you said you knew all about why I was here..." she groaned.
"I do. I know what you did, and I mean... they told me what you told them.
But I just don't get why that'd drive you to stealing," the grownup
confronted.
She was as slow, gentle, and as cautious as she could be. Meanwhile,
Notrix was on edge. The cat froze in her place and stared directly at
her attacker before immediately going on the defensive. Notrix scoffed,
rolled her eyes, and flailed her arms.
"Whatever! It was dumb - okay? Can't we just drop it?" she whined.
"If you don't want to talk about it, that's okay, too. I'm not mad. None
of us are. We just don't want you to ever think stealing is okay,
because it's not," the teacher began.
Standing up from her desk, she abandoned her boring paperwork and
redirected her attention towards Notrix - who clearly had something to
hide. Unbeknownst to Notrix, however, she was hiding for no reason.
There was nothing to be afraid of.
"Off the record, Notrix - I'm saying this to you as a person. If someone
stole diapers because they needed them, or couldn't afford them... I'd
help them out. That makes them less fortunate. But if they stole them
because they... wanted to wear them... and were too embarrassed to buy
them themselves... well... maybe I'd tell them they had no reason to be
afraid, because they weren't the only ones who liked wearing diapers,"
the teacher said.
It was a bold move, and nothing but silence followed. Notrix stood there
silently with heat bursting in her chest. Her eyes widened, and she
swallowed hard as she began to realize her secret wasn't a secret any
longer. The two locked eyes, but it was Notrix who began to yield. She
stepped back and nearly tripped on a toy before regaining her composure.
What was she going to say?! What could she possibly do!? They couldn't
possibly find this out about her! What if they told everyone else?
"I-I don't know what you're talking about," she began.
But they both knew that wasn't true.
Notrix's embarrassed silence spoke louder than any words she was tempted
to yell. On any other day, in any other situation - the young, angsty
teen would have shouted and screamed with fury. She'd have defended
herself and lied until there was nothing left to lie about; her pride
was more important than anything else. But the strange situation she was
put in was so outlandish that it had actually taken her by surprise,
and she found herself too speechless to lie. How did this adult know
about her wearing diapers for fun? Why was she saying anything about it
instead of just keeping her big mouth shut? This was a secret so dark
and was hidden for so long that she knew that there had to be a reason.
"W-What're... what're you gonna do!?" Notrix asked.
Half of her face was covered in long hair so only one big surprised and panicked eyeball stared back at the grownup.
"N-Nothing, Notrix! I mean it!" the adult admitted.
There was more silence but this time the adult broke it. The rabbit
knelt down so she was closer to Notrix's level; the tough, bold teen was
clearly shook and scared. This was a vulnerable side of her that no one
saw often because she tried her absolute hardest to hide it.
"I just... wanted you to know that I know. And that I won't tell anyone," they began.
Notrix's heart was on fire. Suddenly the diaper between her legs felt
uncomfortable. She wanted nothing to do with it. As the two stared at
each other, she began to regret being so stupid as to seriously believe
she could wear a diaper to school and not get noticed...
"...but I also wanted to tell you that I know because you're not the
only one, Notrix. I don't know what your story is but it's not as
uncommon as you'd think," they continued.
Notrix's attention snapped; she heard everything her teacher had to say.
"I-I mean, I can't tell you who. That's not for me to say. But around
here, us grownups know more than you kidfurs think - and I know for a
fact that there's no reason for you to steal diapers just because you're
too embarrassed," they finished.
"W-What're you saying?" Notrix responded.
"...are you telling me there's... other people here? In this school that...
um..." Notrix began. She was still too shy to dare admit what they were
talking about.
But the preschool teacher's slow nod made her gasp. The teenage cat was
absolutely speechless; it was all too much to take in at once.
Everything had happened so fast. Of course she was embarrassed about
everything. She knew that what was happening was strange, but she wasn't
scared. She didn't trust them much now, but she knew she could, if she
allowed herself to. This was someone she had seen around plenty of
times. They had a reputation, a friendly face, never did anything wrong
to her, and she knew nothing was happening in bad taste. Those three
things were the only reason why she didn't panic and run. Of course, the
rabbit was relieved that his approach wasn't bad.
The teacher could tell that Notrix had a lot on her mind now. It must have been quite overwhelming to hear for her!
"Yes, Notrix. It may be silly... but there are others like you. You don't
need to feel afraid anymore, dear. You'll be okay," the teacher began.
Carefully, the grown rabbit placed her big paw on Notrix's shoulder. She
was still knelt down to the teen's level, no different than when she
handles a little cub. Notrix was looking away, and her lip began to
quiver as emotions began to come rushing in. She had a lot bottled up,
after all - and showing some of her weakness was an easy way for strong
emotions to follow. In the silence, under Notrix's concealing bangs -
light sniffling could be heard. The adult had hit a nerve.
Though the adult wasn't sure why Notrix was beginning to cry, it was all
too clear to Notrix where it was all coming from. Shame was filling her
head. She felt so unbelievably guilty for betraying so many peoples'
trust. Her principal, her mother, and others who heard about it - all
seemed to be looking down upon Notrix with conviction. She didn't care
at first... but somehow, being confronted about it like this seemed to
make her break and now the tears couldn't stop flowing. How could she
seriously have disappointed so many people for such a stupid reason?
"Shh, shh... it's okay Notrix..." she heard the teacher say.
The adult's voice was gentle. One thing led to the next and before she
knew it the angsty teenager found herself enveloped in the arms of the
grownup. The two were locked in a warm embrace for some time as Notrix
continued to cry. The grownup consoled her, all the while.
"E-Everyone... everyone thinks... thinks I'm a thief!" she complained.
"No one thinks that, dear. It'll be alright," the rabbit explained.
For some time longer, Notrix continued to cry and vent. Emotions and
stress poured out of her, and the empty classroom stayed silent as she
let it all out. But in time, Notrix's spirits needed to be lifted. The
teacher felt awful for Notrix's sake, and it was natural that her
caregiver instincts began to kick in.
"Shh, shhh... I know what'll make you feel better," the teacher said.
Reaching downward, the teacher grabbed one of the last remaining toys
left on the floor, and held it up to Notrix's level. Making silly
noises, she did her best to make Notrix laugh.
"W-What're... s-stop! Ah... erm..." the sad teen sad.
She did her best to not laugh, but a chuckle or two escaped her at the
sight of the silly toy in front of her. Her teacher didn't stop, though.
The rabbit caregiver continued to make silly noises and do outrageous
things in an effort to make her sobbing, overgrown cub laugh a little.
Of course, it did make Notrix stop crying - but she was left feeling
melancholy and tired.
"Sit down, dear. Let me go fetch you something that'll make you feel
better," the grownup said. Notrix lazily complied, and slowly descended
onto the playmat.
Wiping her tears and sniffling her little nose, Notrix looked around the
room again. It had gotten darker outside, as the sun was beginning to
set. Staring upwards from how low she was to the ground made her feel
even smaller, and the diaper squeezing between her butt and the floor
made it all the more intense. What was going to happen next?
"Here Notrix. Just... take this, and lean back," she heard.
At once, a baby bottle filled with milk seemed to appear right in front
of her. Her teacher was behind her, reaching the bottle up to her mouth.
Notrix was reluctant to lay back into the teacher's embrace, but it was
something that couldn't be resisted. Apprehensively, she fell backward
and felt her head rest on the shoulder of the adult. The nipple of the
baby bottle soon found its way into the teen's mouth, and before she had
anytime to stop it - she was soon swooned by the warm sensation of
being bottle fed for the first time in years. It was an unbelievable
sensation; one that Notrix had longed for.
Again, silence filled the room. The adult kept the baby bottle in
Notrix's mouth, rocking back and forth gently as the teen drink every
drop like the little baby she longed to be. Notrix's heart was racing
the whole time, but it gradually settled down as the baby bottle began
to empty. Somehow, Notrix knew she could trust this grownup. Mouthful
after mouthful, Notrix drank from the bottle and let the grownup take
care of her... but she'd inevitably finish it off. But the end of one good
thing would lead into another...
"Good girl. We're almost finished here, Notrix. It's almost time for you
to go home," the teacher concluded, pulling the now-empty bottle away
from the teen's mouth.
"Mhm," Notrix nodded.
The grown rabbit wandered away to wash the baby bottle. Meanwhile,
Notrix fidgeted and wiped her face. She glowed with all sorts of strange
feelings; a mix of her babyish mentality meeting with adult
contemplation and bewilderment. But she would soon make a discovery that
would make her shame worse, and the babyish emotions skyrocket. The
little teen rose to her feet, but to her dismay... she discovered a big,
dark, wet spot where she was sitting. Notrix had leaked her diaper!
"Oh no!" Notrix gasped, before immediately descending back down. But it was too late.
A loud splut sound rang out, and Notrix's diaper felt like a puddle had
splashed up. Notrix must have gotten carried away while being bottle
fed; she was often one to leak her diapers because she would be in them
for too long! But now she was really in for it. The adult had encouraged
her to be herself, but now she had leaked all over her pants and the
carpet below. How angry was the teacher going to be!? Notrix sighed...
"Um... Notrix... was... that a puddle, underneath you?" her teacher asked.
Notrix's heart sank so deep into her stomach she felt nauseous!
"Wha-what!? N-No!" Notrix lied.
But it was no use. Notrix's wide, terrified eyes told the truth for her.
"O-Oh... Notrix... you really should have asked for a change, dear," the teacher said.
Notrix stayed silent, and sulked. She was really in trouble now...
"...c'mon, scoot over. Let me clean you up... we can't have you leaving
puddles in your parent's car, now can we?" the teacher said.
Notrix thought she was about to have a heart attack.
"H-Huh?" Notrix whined.
"I'm... going to change your diaper for you, Notrix. You're leaking!
Unless you'd rather do it yourself, but you have to get out of that..."
the teacher confronted.
Notrix could tell there was no getting out of this one. Her teacher was
right; no way was she getting in the backseat with her diaper leaking
all over like it was. The rabbit smiled, and nodded her head kindly as
Notrix scooted over, and laid down on the floor. Of course, the teen cat
was blushing, and her heart was racing faster than ever. This was one
of the things she had wanted most - and she trusted her teacher enough
to let it happen.
"There, there. No need to be shy. I've told you once and I'll tell you
again. You're not the only big cub in town.... certainly not the first
big cub who needed a diaper change..." she gently teased. Notrix wanted to
know more, but kept her mouth shut for now - just to relax.
Kneeling down, the grownup flipped Notrix's skirt up over her tummy, and
slowly pulled the teen's pants down - where a very soggy diaper
awaited. The baby-printed diaper swelled and crinkled loudly as Notrix
wiggled about. Tearing one side off, and then the next - Notrix blushed
even redder as she found herself exposed to the unphased but trustworthy
caretaker. After spreading her legs a bit for the caretaker, she winced
as an icy cold baby wipe spread across and cleaned her shame away. A
yellow wipe, and then another yellow wipe both found themselves
discarded into the soiled diaper.
Next, the rabbit pulled the teen cat's diaper out from underneath.
Balling it up and tossing it to the side, Notrix felt the adrenaline
rush as a clean and fresh diaper was slid beneath her. Suddenly, a big
puff of baby powder clouded the air between the cub and the caretaker,
and Notrix wiggled playfully as the rabbit rubbed the powder against her
fur. With the babyish scent filling her nostrils, Notrix couldn't help
but feel goosebumps all over. This experience was nothing short of
amazing to her...
"Okay, all done, little one," the preschool teacher playfully teased as
she finished putting the fresh diaper onto her cub. Notrix smiled.
Sitting up, Notrix found herself pantless with the diaper poking out
from beneath her skirt. Feeling her bare legs and the diaper press
against the carpet, with the grownup standing over her, made her feel
unbelievably little. She didn't want to go home!
"I-I don't... want to leave!" Notrix said.
But it had to be so.
"Aww... I know, little Notrix. Don't worry baby girl, we'll see each other
again soon. Your parents will be here soon, so I need you to get your
pants back on. Unless you want to explain your diaper to them, too," the
teacher explained.
Notrix didn't want that. Not yet.
"Okay," she reluctantly sighed.
At once, the teen pulled her pants back on. They were a little damp, but
nothing could be done. The moment she got home, they were to be tossed
into the laundry. Surely, a little damp spot wouldn't ruin anything or
be obvious. At least Notrix hoped not...
"Did you enjoy yourself?" the preschool teacher asked.
Notrix most certainly did. She was still shy, and was still trying to
take everything in; there was so much to handle during her few hours.
But something inside of her knew that things were going to be okay now.
She wanted to know more about the other kidfurs in her area that were
just like her. Did she know any of them? Would she ever meet them? What
else was going on out there that the shy teen didn't know about? Notrix
was sure to find out.
"Thanks... for everything," Notrix said.
In the distance, as they walked down the halls and approached the
parking lot, they could both see headlights from a parked car. There was
no doubt in Notrix's mind that this was her ride. As she and the
teacher hugged, a certain bond was formed. Something changed for her
that day; something she couldn't explain. A weight had been lifted from
her shoulders, and a new sense of the world seemed to augment her
perception. The shy teen felt... happier now. Climbing into her car, and
driving home at long last - she wasn't sure what tomorrow was to bring,
but Notrix had a feeling that this was the beginning of something new.
She knew not what to expect, but she was very, very eager to find out.
