Night Away - Mitchell's Unconventional Accommodation

The fancy hotel room existed in a liminal space—a corporate-adjacent environment of muted colors and impersonal design. Ben had selected it carefully, a space that promised anonymity and complete isolation. Mitchell followed, his large body moving with the uncertain gait of a child-minded individual trapped in an adult’s form.

“You can’t tell anyone,” Ben said quietly, his voice a low, controlled whisper as he closed the door behind them.

Mitchell’s cartoon t-shirt hung loosely, his pamper pristine and fresh at the start of what would become a deeply unusual evening. Ben’s bag contained a carefully curated collection of supplies—extra pampers, gas pills, wet wipes, the tools of meticulous institutional care.

“Sit,” Ben instructed.

Mitchell began to bang on the ground, his large hands creating a rhythmic percussion against the hotel carpet. Each movement was deliberate, a strange mixture of adult physicality and child-like behavior. His body tensed, muscles shifting in a familiar pattern of preparation.

Slowly, he began to load his pamper.

The mess spread—warm, soft, expanding across the back of the pamper. With each movement, the pamper sagged, growing heavier. Ben watched with a clinical detachment, his expression unreadable—part caretaker, part something more complicated.

“Take these,” Ben said, producing gas pills. Mitchell complied without hesitation, swallowing the pills with the unquestioning obedience of a child.

The pills worked quickly. Mitchell began to fart—explosive, thunderous releases that filled the quiet hotel room. Each gaseous eruption seemed to push more into his already loaded pamper. The smell grew intense, transforming from merely unpleasant to overwhelmingly pungent.

The pamper turned brown, beginning to leak at the edges. Brown stains spread across the white material, a testament to Mitchell’s complete loss of control.

Ben set up a small portable crib, its metal frame clicking into place with mechanical precision. “Naptime,” he said simply, the words carrying a weight beyond their simple meaning.

Mitchell climbed in, his leaking pamper a visible reminder of the evening’s activities. He drifted to sleep, the hotel room silent except for his rhythmic breathing. The brown-stained pamper pressed against him, a constant, uncomfortable presence.

Morning came with clinical efficiency. They returned to the daycare, Mitchell moving as if nothing had happened. His large body blended into the routine of institutional care. Ben acted normally—another day in their carefully managed world.

No one would know about the night away—the quiet moments, the hidden experiences that defined Mitchell’s unique existence. The hotel room would be cleaned, the evidence erased, another secret absorbed into the institutional landscape.
