===================================================
Jim was laying on his bed in what was formerly a double dorm room, but now a single. About a month ago, his roommate Pete was summoned to the Mage Chair's office. A day later, workers came in and removed Pete's things, and that was that.
Jim had a single, and Jim was bored.
The knock at the door made him get up.
"Yes?" he asked and his voice drifted off while he looked straight then down. "Cathy?"
Cathy, Pete's girlfriend stood outside the door. Cathy, normally about 5 and a half foot, with shoulder auburn hair and athletic body, was currently about eye-level with the door handle. Cathy who started with a lacrosse scholarship and transitioned to an academic scholarship looked a mess. She was wearing an over-sized shirt, shorts that came past her knees, and looked like she hadn't slept in days.
"I didn't know where else to go." Cathy stuttered out. She looked side to side up and down the hallway. "Can I come in?"
Jim stepped to the side allowing Cathy in. She barely made it to his chest. Jim had no words.
"Shut the door?" Cathy asked looking up.
"Uh, Cath. What's going on?" Jim asked.
She hopped onto the bed, nervously swinging her legs. He took a chair opposite and leaned in.
"Did you know what that ass did to me?" she asked.
"No. Pete? Have you seen him? He went to Mage Masterson's last month then his stuff was moved out. We all guessed he was moved to another school or long term project prior to graduation."
Cathy laughed. "No. He's being held at the Council for illegal magic use and other things. I don't know what to do now. The other mages don't know what he did and he's not saying. I hate him so much!"
"Cath, what? Pete's been arrested? What happened to you?"
"Oh, he never told you?" she cried. "I wanted to break up with him months ago. Then we went on 'One Last Date to Remember' as he called it. That's when he dropped a spell on me. I didn't know about it at first. It took a few days for my clothes to feel looser, then when I confronted him, he confessed. He put a hex on me. Every week I shrink by about 10%."
"What? Pete's smart, but that's a high level hex. I'm not even sure we studied how to do that yet."
"Oh, he's smart. Smarter than the Mage dept for sure. He wouldn't tell them anything about the hex except to confirm what I could tell them. You ever been poked and prodded by old men while standing naked because they say clothes would interfere with their results? I have. Dirty old fucks, getting an eye-full while waving their wands around!"
"Cath, they have no idea how he did it? They're the smartest mages around! They must have resources to help."
Cathy looked up from the ill-fitting shirt. "Nope. 3 weeks while they did things to me. Made me drink things. Chant my own spells. Hell! I'm studying accounting!" Her eyes peered out of the neck-hole, growing angry. "The only thing they could say is the hex is unstable and they're afraid of making it worse. They're consulting with others and will get back to me."
"Cathy. If they can't do anything, I don't know what I can do. Pete never mentioned working on a spell like this. I don't even have his notebooks. They took all that when they moved him out. What can I do?"
"The spell is I shrink 10% every week. That fucker put in a clause. I grow 20% for a blow-job. It was his way to keep me after I tried to break up with him."
"Uh, you do what and what happens?"
"You never noticed, did you? About twice a week I'd stop over here as you were heading out for class or something? I was always a few inches shorter when I got here, but my normal height when I left."
Jim thought back to the last 3 months of encounters. Was she right? He'd never noticed her height. He'd noticed her body and hair. She kept in shape by running and hitting the gym. But height of an inch or two?
"No, I never noticed that. Why didn't you say anything to me? I could have talked with Pete. Tried to figure something out."
"I didn't know if you were in on his hex or not. I eventually got caught when a shoe came off tripping me. I went to the campus infirmary. One of their tests is to see if you have anything magical going which could interfere with treatment. Once it came up, nurses let campus police know, who contacted the Mage Chair, and you can guess the rest."
"Uh.. about how big are you now?"
"I'm going to guess just under 4-ft." she said standing up to about eye level with Jim sitting down.
Jim looked at her in the over-sized shirt, shorts, and sandals and took a large gulp.
"You said you had no-where else to go. I understand why you don't want to go to the mages again. You want to stay here while they work things out? How can I help?"
Cathy looked over, right into Jim's eyes. "I need to suck you off."
Startled Jim replied, "What?"
"I need to find out if this hex was only geared to Pete or to anyone. I wasn't about to do that to one of the mages. "she said shivering. "Gross dirty old men! You knew Pete. We got along well enough, and I don't know anyone else who would understand or would try to hold it over me like Pete did."
"Uh." stammered Jim. "You want to what again?"
