"How'd you know you'd need two more times to be at your normal height?" Jim asked.
"I'm an accounting major. These are easy numbers to work. It's also what started my fight with Pete." Cathy said walking over to Pete's bed across from Jim and hopping up.
"Pete said he was working on something that would allow growth and shrinking. Something that would show he's the best mage around. But we got into an argument when he said two 10% decreases could be countered by a single 20% increase."
Jim looked at her, "Why wouldn't it?"
"Jeez, not you too. Ok. Here's the simple math. Start with the value 100. Take away 10%. What do you get?"
"90."
"Yes. Now take away 10%. What do you get?"
"80?" Jim said
"No. How do mages operate in the real world.." she exasperatedly sighed. "You'd have 81. Now 10 percent of 81 is?"
"8.1?"
"Yes. Good. Double that. What do you get?"
"16?"
"I'm going to cock-block you. 16.2. The numbers matter. Now add 16.2 to 81 is?"
Jim's eyes rolled up and his fingers moved as he did math. "97.2?"
"Good. That's not 100." She layed back on the bed. "He couldn't accept that I was right and he wasn't. Even after working him through the math on a whiteboard. He started to make fun of me and I didn't want that type of relationship. I think he knew the end was coming and he wanted control. So here we are." She leaned on an elbow looking at Jim. "Round two so I can go? It'd be at least two more before I'm at my regular height for about a week. I won't grow any past that, even though he had me suck him off multiple days in a row."
"In a minute or so," Jim said checking his cock. "Still a bit sensitive. Why we wait, how did he get the hex on you? Maybe that'll help."
She rolled back on the bed. "He took me out to dinner and gave me this bracelet." she waved her hand up rattling a thin silver chain. "He said he was sorry for the things he did and wanted to re-start the relationship. Ha! Restart under his control, the ass. I put on the bracelet and we had dinner. That evening I tried to take off the bracelet and it wouldn't come off. I called and he apologized and said he'll look at the next day. The next day we got together at the quad. He said he wasn't sure why it wouldn't come off but would look into it. I didn't mind the bracelet because it didn't get in my so I left it on and forgot about it. Over the course of the week I noticed my clothes getting looser.
"About 5 days in we were talking and he commented on my shirt not fitting right. I said yea, it was strange. Then he asked if I noticed other differences. It didn't occur to me until then that the door handles seemed slightly higher, the bed was a bit higher, etc. And his stupid fucking face was slightly higher.
"Then the arrogant ass told me everything. And that to get my height back, I'd have to give him blow jobs weekly. He thought the numbers were funny because of my math lesson to him."
"Oh." was all Jim could say. "I'm sorry. What did the mages say about breaking the hex?"
"They figured they could remove the bracelet fine and that would stop the hex. But the spell powering it is unstable and they didn't know how it would react to being broken. They aren't sure if the instability is intentional or not. But they do know they don't want to mess with it yet. I'm pretty sure they want to do more 'testing' on me in the nude. Dirty fuckers who play with their wands all of them."
"Don't lump us all together, Cath." Jim said with a smile. "I think I'm ready to help."
Cathy sat up facing Jim. "Yea, this should get me over 5 ft. If I did the math right, I'm about 4ft 3 right now. Getting to 5-ft 1-inch will give me a day or so." She looked at him, feet hanging over the side. "You're ok with this? I know I dumped a lot on you."
