Nothing Like Home Ch 06

I stared into Stephanie's gentle blue eyes, losing any semblance of how I could change the topic. She really is pretty. I thought, feeling an unease in my chest. I can't just ask her out, I don't even know her. Goddammit Claire! Why did you do this to me?! Our staring contest was cut short when some girl tried to squeeze through the aisle, which was mostly blocked by Stephanie's perfect bubble butt. The pretty waitress had to turn around and press her buttocks against our table to make enough space. My gaze quickly turned towards said buttocks, admiring their shape and size. Damn! Oh, I have it!

Stephanie turned to face me again. "So what was it you wanted to ask?" She asked, a little annoyance creeping into her voice.

"Right... I..." I stopped, cleared my throat and took a deep breath. "I know this is going to sound really weird, but we're doing a bit of an experiment with my friend here." I nodded towards Claire. "And I think you'd be perfect for it."

Stephanie blinked a couple of times in surprise. "Does it have anything to do with how much you're eating?"

I just nodded, unsure how to start explaining what we're doing.

"Hmm. Before I agree to anything I need to know more about it. I've got a break in like ten minutes, so we can talk then."

I gave her a smile and nodded. "Alright, sounds fair."

Stephanie nodded and walked away, her ass wobbling with every step she took.

Once she was away I kicked Claire's shin beneath the table. It probably hurt me more than her, because of my bloated middle laying on top of my legs. "You fucking bitch!" I hissed.

"Coward!" Claire giggled, unphased by the kick. "I told you she's into you."

I frowned.

"You can frown all you want, but no normal person would agree to meet us to talk about that little experiment of ours. Not unless they had some other motivation of their own."

My frown deepened. "What motivation?"

"To spend time with you, you silly goose!" Claire exclaimed.

I blushed, feeling foolish. Claire might be right.. Why else would Stephanie want to listen to some stranger talking about an experiment? I glanced down, where my expanded belly lay upon my legs. Let alone an experiment like this?! I laid my hand upon the dome of my stomach, feeling how full and taut it was. It's so big and full... yet I'm still craving for more! More food! More calories! More fuel to feed my growth! I need to grow! I need to be larger than Natalie! There, I said it. Vanity it may be, but I can't allow my little sister to be larger than me. I won't allow it! With a lot of effort I rose to my feet, my mobility achieved only through my will and determination, and started to walk towards the nearly unlimited supplies of food at hand. I wasn't sure when my shirt became too small to cover my entire torso, but in my head there was no longer a space for shame. All was taken by this excruciating hunger, caused by the chemicals flowing around in my bloodstream. I filled my plates to the brim, barely noticing what food found its way upon them. I barely even saw it as food to be honest. It was all just a means to fuel my growth. I could almost feel myself growing bigger. I could swear my breasts were tingling, a silent premonition of what was to come.

I made my way back to the table with my bounty and placed it down. I tried to adjust my too small shirt, pulling at the fabric and then I started to shovel down the food without any further delay. With my gusto renewed, all the food disappeared in a record time, leaving me aching for more. I need more if I want to catch up! I rose to my feet once again, with even more effort than the last time. My middle was bloated, full to the brim and so very heavy, it was a small wonder I still managed to stand up. I waddled towards where the food was. Blinded by my desire to eat, I nearly bumped into Stephanie, who started her break by filling two plates with a meal of her own.

"Hey!" She cried out, only just avoiding the contact with my overfilled gut.

"Sorry, I... I guess I take up a lot more space than I'm used to." I said, a little shame creeping in after all.

"I don't blame you. I've never seen anyone eat the way you do! Not even during a competition. I got to say I'm really curious about this experiment of yours, when it makes you eat like this."

I nodded. "Let me just grab some more food and I'll tell you everything."

Stephanie managed to fill her plates before I did, mostly because my large belly was getting in my way, limiting my reach. It became extremely relevant when I tried to get the last couple chicken nuggets. They were just outside my reach, even when my gut was painfully pressed against the edge.

"Wait, let me get it for you." Stephanie offered when she saw my struggle. I stepped aside, allowing her to try. Stephanie rose on her tiptoes and bent forward, offering a great sight of her exquisite butt to anyone who was watching. I felt blood rushing through my veins. I was getting flushed, feeling unreasonably warm. I never felt like this! Is it caused by the pills? Or is it just because she's so damn hot?! Dammit Claire, why did you have to point it out?! Now I can't get it out of my head. I fanned my hands around my face, trying to cool it down a little. And my boobs are definitely tingling...

Stephanie put the nuggets on my plate, giving me a bright smile.

"Thanks." I said. Together we headed to the table where Claire was waiting for us, writing something into her notebook. I made sure to walk in the front, not risking getting distracted by Stephanie's ass again.

We sat down at the table, both placing two overfilled plates in front of us.

"Damn! Are you sure you can eat all that?" Claire asked and I noticed the question wasn't aimed at me.

"Pretty sure." Stephanie replied. "I have quite an appetite." She added, blushing a little.

"I don't think there's anything to be shy about." I said, pointing to the tower of empty plates we left behind in our quest for growth.

Stephanie's stomach let out a loud growl and her blush deepened.

"You must be starving." I said. "Don't let us stop you, we can talk while we eat."

Stephanie gave me a grateful smile and dug into one of the plates in front of her.

I took the opportunity myself, cramming even more food inside my overfilled middle.

"Watching you two makes me hungry. I'm gonna get something as well."

"I think we should start with introductions. I'm Emily and that's Claire." I said, nodding towards my larger friend.

"Stephanie, nice to meet you." Stephanie said with a smile.

"Uhm, I'm not really sure where to start so please, bear with me." I said, wiping sweat from my forehead. "Uh, is it just me, or is it really hot in here?" I asked.

"It must be you, because you're definitely hot!" Claire giggled and gave me a wink. Blushing a little, I turned back to Stephanie. "You saw the girl I was here with last night, right?" I asked, knowing that Natalie must have left an impression.

"Tall girl, huge knockers." Stephanie nodded, mimicking Natalie's chest with her arms.

"Yeah, that's my younger sister, Natalie. What if I told you that just a few months back she wasn't even 5 feet tall and completely flat?!"

"I'd say it's bullshit."

I nodded. "And I don't blame you." I pulled out my phone and found a picture mom sent me three months ago, with my family sitting around a table with Natalie in the middle and a birthday cake in front of her. "This picture was taken three months ago on her eighteenth birthday, shortly before she started visiting a certain Doctor Stone, whose office happens to be just across the street from this buffet. This doctor started giving Natalie 'vitamines'." I said, using air quotes to emphasize the word. "Ever since she started taking them, she started to eat ridiculous portions of food and then she started to grow. I managed to get my hand on some of those pills and now we're charting their effects." I said, tugging at the fabric of my shirt. I swear this thing is getting less and less comfortable.

"The same thing happened to my little brother." Claire jumped in. "Few months back he was short and chubby and now he looks like a fucking greek god! And I don't mean that wine and party guy. I thought it was just some kind of freaky genetic thing, but when Emily here came with a similar story, I knew there was something more sinister going on."

Stephanie nodded a couple of times, taking in what we told her. "Why? I mean, why are you doing this?"

"Uhm... to have evidence of what that guy's doing!"

"To do what?"

"To stop him! This isn't right! He's turning helpless kids into freaks!"

"I suppose..." Stephanie said. "What do you want from me then?"

"I... I thought you could maybe join us? To help us gather evidence?"

"I'll be honest, this all sounds a bit... crazy, you know? I don't want to be mean but-"

"Emily! Your tits are growing!" Claire shouted, cutting Stephanie off.

"What?!" I cried out, watching as my breasts slowly expanded in size, my shirt slowly creeping upwards with every passing second. I grabbed my boobs with my hands, feeling their soft flesh growing beneath my fingers. It was incredible to see my breasts grow before my very eyes, to feel them press against my hands. A wave of pleasure washed over me and I let out a soft moan. "I-I need to go!" I exclaimed, my voice shaking. With great difficulty I managed to stand up and waddled away as fast as my overstuffed gut allowed me. I rushed towards the doors outside, but Stephanie stopped me.

"Wait! Follow me, there's a staff restroom where you can wait 'till it's over. It's kinda small, but you'll get some privacy and at least it's clean. I can even get you a larger t-shirt to wear if you want."

Another wave of pleasure waved over me and I nearly lost my footing. "Ok." I managed to breathe out. I still could feel my breasts growing, while I was following behind Stephanie's... well, behind. A strange warmth surged through my body and I had to bite my lip to stop another moan from escaping my lips. For some reason I couldn't stop picturing Stephanie naked. What is wrong with me?! Why am I so horny all of the sudden?!

We reached the doors leading to the restroom. Stephanie opened them promptly, motioning me inside. Stephanie wasn't wrong when she said it wasn't very big, there were two cabins and a single basin. "Anybody there?" I asked, and when silence was all the answer I got, I immediately disappeared inside the cabin on the left and locked the door behind me.

"Wait here, I'm gonna get you that t-shirt." Stephanie said, leaving me all alone.

Sitting down, I pulled my shirt over my head and groped my boobs, feeling them expand. A shiver ran down my spine. I'm so glad Stephanie went away. I might have just thrown myself at her otherwise! My left hand started to play with my nipples, while my right slipped down into my shorts. I let out a series of moans, no longer caring whether anyone would hear or not.

I let out a long, relieved sigh. Finished, I felt a bit disgusted with myself, but at least the urge was gone and I was able to think again. My attention shifted back towards my magnificent breasts that sat proudly, dominating my torso. Each of my breasts was nearing the size of my entire head. A little grin appeared on my lips. Now I'm definitely going to tighten the gap a bit. It's a shame they stopped growing. I took a breath. It's probably for the best though. They feel really tight now.

The outside door opened and I froze in place, afraid to even breathe. After all, I was in a place where I had no right to be.

"Emily? Are you there?"

I breathed out a big sigh of relief upon hearing Stephanie's voice. "I'm here."

"I've got the t-shirt." She said.

I opened the door just enough to push my hand through the gap. Stephanie handed me a piece of white fabric and I closed the door again. I started unfolding it to reveal the largest t-shirt I've ever seen. "Where did you get it?" I asked.

"Well, this buffet organizes an eating competition three times a year and every competitor gets this t-shirt. The next one's gonna be in two weeks, so we have plenty in stock."

"Oh, I see." I said, turning the t-shirt around, finding a cartoonish picture of a cute piggy with the name of the buffet above it. I took one last look at my beautiful boobies, before hiding them beneath the huge t-shirt. The tee easily covered even my pregnant-like belly, reaching all the way down to the middle of my thighs. It would surely reach below my knees if I didn't eat as much as I did! Seeing the immediate results of my overeating on my chest filled me with a new desire to stuff myself even more than I already was.

"Listen, I know I couldn't have sounded very convinced before, but seeing it with my own eyes... I'm in! If you still want me." Stephanie said while we were walking back to the table. Then started to blush. "As a test subject I mean!"

I grinned. Claire, you bitch! You were right... There's definitely some interest on her side. "That's great!" I exclaimed. "When does your shift end?"

Stephanie looked at her watch. "In three hours." She said and then swore. "Shit, my break is over!" She gave me a little wave. I'll catch you later." Then she rushed away, as fast as her thick thighs allowed her.

Three hours... I wonder if I could eat for that much longer. I shook my head. No, that's insane... Still, there's nothing to stop me from trying!

I arrived back at the table to find Claire as she was stuffing her face.

"Thanks for the help." I growled, a little annoyed that she did nothing.

"It seemed like you two had everything under control." She grinned. "Besides, I didn't want to ruin such an intimate moment."

I rolled my eyes. "You're getting pretty annoying, you know that?"

"Come on, you've got to admit she's into you!"

I nodded after a few seconds of hesitation. "I think you're right." I said finally. "But that doesn't mean anything! I'm not just gonna throw myself at her."

Claire shrugged. "It's your loss. I'd be all over her if I were in your place. Alas, I'm just a fatty and nobody likes me." She said, fake crying.

"Aww." I purred, putting my hand on her shoulder. "Just wait a little. You'll have anyone you choose once you're 7 feet tall, busty amazon!"

Claire giggled. "I like the way you think!"

I grinned. "Now be a good girl and eat. I'm gonna go get some more food for myself."

"Sit down, I'll take care of it." Stephanie said, sporting her name tag once again.

Three hours had passed and I was bursting at the seams. I felt as if my belly could rip open at any time. Only Claire and her notebook knew just how much food found its way into my massively expanded gut. It was so big, I had to sit sideways to the table to be able to reach the content of my plate. "Fuck!" I cried out. "I-I think I went too far!"

"You think? Wait 'till I tell you how many calories you inhaled!" Claire said.

"How many?"

"Don't be impatient. I'll tell you when we get back to my room. Assuming we can get you into the car."

"You're such a tease!"

"Nah, not really. I just need to double check my calculations. The number I got seems too high even for all this."

"Are you ready to go?" Stephanie's voice sounded somewhere behind me.

"I don't think I can get up on my own..."

Stephanie stepped into my sight, now clad in her regular clothes that somehow managed to complement her figure even better than her work clothes did, showcasing just how narrow her waist was. She offered her hands, which I gratefully grasped. With her help I rose to my feet and almost fell forward, my center of gravity shifted more than I expected. Standing, my middle looked ridiculously huge, noticeably larger than even Natalie's was last night. Oh my god! This is completely insane!

"You know what?" Claire mumbled, staring at me in awe. "That number might be quite close to reality after all."

The walk to the car was a torture. Every single breath I took hurt. Every step I made sent vibrations through my gut, making the pain agonizing. Fuck! I need to be more careful in the future. At last we stood next to the car. One question remained. How the hell am I gonna fit inside?!

"I'm not sure if I can fit behind the wheel." Claire said, looking at the small car. "Let me try before we start pushing you inside." She sat down onto the driver's seat and started pushing her big gut behind the wheel. Inch by inch she made her way in. "Ok..." Claire went silent for a bit. "There's no way I can steer the wheel like this."

"What are we going to do?!" I exclaimed, a hint of panic creeping into my voice.

"We can go to my place." Stephanie offered. "I live just a block away."

"Sounds like a plan!" Claire nodded. "But could you help me out of the car first? I'm wedged in here pretty tightly..."
