Rumble's Secret: Part 2

Even though the skies were pitch black when Rumble finally woke up, one glance at the clock showed that the colt was only asleep for a couple of hours. He lifted a hoof to wipe his face, feeling how matted his fur still felt despite it being dry now. When he looked around, Rumble's eyes had to adjust to the darkness before realizing he was completely alone in his room. A heavy bout of worry began to sweep through him as he got out of his bed, hoping that he didn't ruin anything with what happened earlier today.

'If it actually did happen' thought the colt to himself as he went to turn on the lights.

Even though he hated to admit it, Rumble couldn't help but be worried about how he reacted towards his brother. Even though the way that he broke down was more than mortifying, the way that Thunderlane consoled him almost felt like a dream. And when Rumble walked out of his bedroom, the fact that the house seemed empty made that idea even more apparent in his mind.

Rumble didn't want to lose his big brother, and he really didn't want what happened to be just a fantasy in his now panicked mind. By the time that he reached the stairs, Rumble was legitimately afraid about where his brother might've been. As he started to walk down the steps, he opened his muzzle and called out weakly, "Uhhh... Th... Thunderl--"

The front door opened before Rumble could finish, and his eyes widened in instant relief when he saw the dark grey stallion walk in. Thunderlane had what looked to be a big shopping bag held in his mouth by the handles, but what caught Rumble's attention was the two large pizza boxes which were balanced on the Pegasus's back. Thunderlane saw his brother at the stairs, and smiled before putting down his bag. "There you are!" said the stallion cheerfully. As he trotted towards the kitchen table, he looked back at his brother and asked with slight worry, "Ummm, sorry if I was gone too long."

The colt walked down the rest of the stairs, and trotted towards his brother as his mood began to lighten. "No, it's okay," said the colt honestly, "I just woke up."

"Oh, perfect timing then!" Thunderlane opened both of the boxes after placing them on the table, and Rumble's eyes widened when he saw that his brother got him his favorite: pineapple with green pepper. "Oh boy!" shouted the colt with a huge smile as he seated himself. Thunderlane only chuckled as he got a slice from his own pizza, which was spinach and feta. "Thanks, Thunderlane!" said Rumble enthusiastically.

"Hey, it's no problem at all," said the stallion with a smirk of his own. "I was meaning to get pizza anyway. I was just glad I was able to order before the place closed."

For the rest of their late dinner, Rumble didn't say much as he ate his pizza. While Thunderlane was worried about how long he left his brother alone after that moment earlier, he was happy to see that the colt was in high spirits. Of course, with one glance back at that bag by the door, the stallion wondered how long it would take before his brother asked him about it.

By the time Thunderlane got his fill from just over half of his pizza, Rumble was leaned back in his chair with a clearly full bely, and a smile on his slightly greasy muzzle. "Mmmm... thanks again," said the colt tiredly.

"Well, you're welcome," responded Thunderlane with a smile of his own. Noticing how greasy his brother's face was, an idea sprung to mind. Even though he didn't want to rush into anything, something made Thunderlane think that maybe his brother would appreciate a little extra attention right now. So, after tearing open one of the wet-nap packets that came with his box, he leaned in towards the colt with the nap in his hoof. "Hold still now..."

Rumble didn't realize what was happening until he felt his brother wiping his face clean with the wet nap. Even though he was confused for a second, his eyes widened as he realized what this felt like. Growing a smile on his face, Rumble blushed before keeping himself still, letting his big brother wipe the grease from his muzzle.

"Ah, there we go!" said the stallion in a chipper tone while pulling the wet nap away. "Good as new."

Rumble bit his lip with a smile as he nodded. As he looked up at his brother, Rumble could see from the warm smile he had that what happened really wasn't a dream. Thunderlane really did comfort him after his admission. He really did rock him to sleep with a lullaby. He really did make him feel like he always wanted to feel...

And the colt really didn't want that feeling to go away.

Thunderlane got out of his seat, and walked towards his shopping bag as he asked, "So, Rumble... do you have any big plans this weekend?"

Rumble put a hoof to his chin and pondered that question a bit, but shrugged after a brief moment and shook his head. "Well, not really."

"Great," said the stallion with a more enthusiastic smile as he picked up the bag with his wing. "Because I didn't really have any big plans either. So I wanted to ask you something..."

Thunderlane walked back to his brother, and put down his bag for a moment before sitting down in front of him. Even though Rumble was still in his chair, Thunderlane was at perfect eye level with him while on the floor in front of him. The dark grey Pegasus kept his smile as he spoke. "Rumble, I... I know you told me a lot today, and it was really brave of you to admit what you did..."

Rumble bit his lip again as he nodded, his heart beginning to race in newfound worry. He wasn't sure what Thunderlane was going to ask, so the colt couldn't help squirming in his chair a little as he said, "W-well, uhhh, th-thanks... I... I didn't know what to say..."

"That's alright," said Thunderlane assuredly as he placed a hoof on the colt's shoulder. "I'm sure that it was a scary thing to do, but I don't want you to feel like that, alright? You can always be open with me."

Rumble nodded more firmly in understanding. "A-alright..."

"Now..." Thunderlane then pulled the bag in closer towards him, and continued while motioning towards it. "I was gone a little longer than usual because I decided to get some things for us. I knew of a store over in Cloudsdale, which had some items which I think you might enjoy..."

When Thunderlane opened up the top of the bag, he let his brother look inside to see what was on top. Rumble's eyes shot wide-open when he saw the item at the very top, which was a rather large pacifier. Immediately realizing what the rest of the bag may have contained, he looked back at his brother with a stunned expression. "You... y-you..."

Thunderlane only nodded with a smile. "That's right," answered the stallion before his brother could finish. "I went and bought some things for you. After what you told me, it seemed like it was really important to you..."

Rumble looked back at the bag, his eyes pinned to that paci as he made a small nod. "Y-yeah... It... it is..."

Thunderlane then pushed the bag closer towards him, and said, "If you want, you and I can spend the whole weekend together, with no interruptions..." He then pulled out the pacifier from the bag, and handed it to his brother with a caring smile. "And if you really want, Rumble, you can be a foal the whole time."

By now, Rumble's eyes were as wide as dinner plates, and it looked like he was about to start tearing up at any moment. "I... you mean I..." He looked down at the pacifier in front of him, and he picked it up with a trembling hoof. As he held the paci, a smile began to emerge from his shaking lips before looking back up at his brother. "Really? You... you really mean that?"

"Mmm-Hmm," responded the stallion with a clear nod. "All I want is for you to be happy, Rumble. And if being a little foal is what you really want to be, then I'll gladly help you out with that."

Rumble's smile grew tremendously large, and he lunged forward to give the stongest hug he could possibly give to his brother. "THANK YOU!! ThankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouTHANKYOU!!!"

Thunderlane hugged back just as tightly, and his smile couldn't be any stronger as he heard his little brother say, "I love you Thunderlane... I love you so much..."

"I love you too, little guy," said the stallion with clenched eyes, not wanting to tear up in front of his brother. But still, he held that hug for only another moment before pulling back with a sigh. "Alright then." He kept his smile as he looked at his elated brother and asked, "You want to start now?"

"YES!!!" shouted Rumble in an instant. Of course, t the realization of how he sounded, the colt grew an embarrassed blush before settling back in his chair with the paci in his hooves. He nodded and repeated in a more held-back tone. "I-I mean... yeah, I do."

"Alright then..." Thunderlane went back into the bag, and began to pull out the items for his little colt to enjoy. As he placed them on the table, Rumble's eyes widened when he saw just how much his brother bought for him: A large baby bottle, a bright blue sleeper with white bunnies on the print, foal formula, a rattle, several toy blocks...

It wasn't until he brought out the can of foal powder that Rumble's ears perked up in anticipation. If he bought him powder, that meant that Thunderlane had to have bought...

Thunderlane noticed his brother's look, and chuckled before lifting up the bag in front of him. "You wanna pull the last thing out?"

Rumble looked between him and the bag, wondering if all of this was just an elaborate dream his mind made up. But with the prospect of what could've been in the bag laying on his mind, the colt quickly snatched the bag from Thunderlane's hooves. And after seeing the packaging that was at the bottom of the bag, Rumble was speechless when he shakily pulled it out to see in it's full glory:

A large, 24 count package of poofy, Happy Foal diapers, with the colorful cartoon printing shown on the front.

After staring at the package for what felt like an eternity, Rumble looked back at his chuckling brother. "That's right," said the stallion with a satisfied grin on his face. "No more paper towels for you."

Rumble looked like his face was going to split with how wide his smile got, and he gave Thunderlane another hug while holding the package with one hoof. By the time he pulled back, it was clear that the colt was about to cry with tears of joy. "I... I don't know what to say..."

Thunderlane picked up the pacifier that was in the colt's lap, and brought it up to Rumble's face. "You don't need to say a thing. Especially when you're a foal."

Rumble only smiled as he nodded in response, and  a couple stray tears rolled down his cheeks. He then took the pacifier from Thunderlane's hoof, and placed it into his mouth. As he began to suckle on the paci, a light thuckle could be heard as he blushed even deeper. And despite how large the paci was, it didn't hide the elated smile Rumble had behind it.

"Now..." After wiping his brother's tears away, Thunderlane picked up the package of diapers, and opened it to pull out the first one. The diaper was surprisingly bigger than expected, and Rumble's eyes could be seen widening while he sucked on his paci. With how poofy the diaper looked (even when folded), combined with the loud crinkle that made the colt's ears twitch, it was clear that Thunderlane got a lucky pick for his brother. The stallion peered up at Rumble with a smirk and asked. "You ready?"

Rumble nodded as hard and as quickly as he could, but didn't pull out his paci.

"Okay then." Thunderlane patted the floor beside him with a hoof. "Lay down here, and I'll get you diapered."

Hearing that statement almost felt unreal, and Rumble's heart fluttered as he realized this was really happening. After the months he spent hating himself for those thoughts, and all those times he spent trying to make his own with paper towels or toilet paper, Rumble was finally going to wear a real diaper. He was finally going to be what he always wanted to be.

He was finally going to be a foal.

Rumble hopped out of his seat and laid on his back next to his brother. With his hindlegs straight up, it was clear that the colt was ready to be padded. And Thunderlane, with a warm smile still on his face, didn't hesitate to help him out as he unfolded the diaper with a heavy crinkle.

"Okay, first..." Thunderlane focused with his tongue slightly out as he lifted his brother up by his hindlegs, just enough to get the back of the folded-out diaper underneath him. After getting Rumble's tail through the small strap provided, the stallion got the can of foal powder from the table. "Let's get you all powdered up..."

A couple shakes from the can coated Rumble's rump and privates with the white powder, and the colt sighed as he caught the scent of that foal powder in the air. It was familiar and pleasant, and oh so comforting to the little Pegasus.

fter making sure everything was in check, Thunderlane untapped the sides before bringing the front of the diaper around Rumble. And with the colt looking down at his waist with growing anticipation, he could only watch as Thunderlane applied the tapes to both sides, securing the diaper on him.

"Alright," said the stallion as he looked up at Rumble for his reaction. "It's done. What do you think?"

Rumble slowly got up to a sitting position, with his eyes never leaving his now padded crotch. With the way the diaper fringed at the edges, along with the cute little cartoons that went along the poofy padding, Rumble was at a loss of words at how this felt. Even in his wildest fantasies, the colt never imagined that wearing a real diaper would've felt this amazing. With a trembling hoof, he pressed against the crotch of his diaper, feeling the soft material as it crinkled from his touch. As the crinkle made his ears twitch once more. Rumble could only sit with the realization that he was really in a diaper. A real diaper.

And it couldn't have felt more right.

Rumble couldn't stop smiling if he tried, and his welling eyes looked up at his brother as he spoke through his pacifier. "Thith... thith ith pewfect."

Thunderlane could only smile warmly, undoubtedly glad that he could make his brother this happy about something as simple as some products from the foal store. The colt looked back down at himself, his blush growing deeper at the realization of what this meant for him. After all the time he spent thinking about it, he could finally say what he always wanted to say. Even with the paci still in his mouth, it was clear as day what he said as he spoke to himself in a whisper. "I'm... I'm a foal..."

Thunderlane nodded as he heard him. "That's right, Rumble. You really are a foal now."

At actually hearing him say that, Rumble's breathing began to grow more rapid in excitement. He looked up at Thunderlane with an excited smile before repeating in a more eager tone, "I'm a FOAL!!!"

Rumble got on his hooves quickly enough to rush into Thunderlane's chest for another hug, and the stallion hugged back just as tightly. While the colt sniffed while against his big brother, he could barely keep his paci in his mouth as he said in an overwhelmed tone, "I... I wuv yoo, Thunderwane..."

Thunderlane chuckled at his brother's foal-sounding tone, and nuzzled the top of his head as he said back to him, "I love you too, baby boy."
