That's when he spotted an odd box on the truck. It had different markings than the others so Seb leaned into the truck to pull out the box. He grunted as he leaned over his gut and slid the box a bit with his thick fingers. It scooted close enough to grab so he pulled it out and propped it up on its side on the truck bed. It wasn't that big- maybe the size of the average box from some online store. The sides of it were plain and the only indication of what it was for was on the shipping label.
"Megalabs Building 3". The same place they were building. Whoever had sent it must have done so by mistake since Building 3 was nowhere near done. Shrugging, Seb picked it up in his big hands and started to rumble himself to the office to turn it in. Though as he waddled along he could hear something in the box rattling. Almost as if a bunch of stuff was in a bottle. His brown eyes darted around the construction site and realized that no one else was looking his way. He stuck his fat fingers under a flap and gave a tug, tearing the whole flap right off.
"Don't want to turn this in if it's a bomb or some shit," he mumbled to himself.
The rattling continued as the box shifted in his hand and he had discovered the source after the item rolled to the side with the missing flap. It was a bottle! It had a shiny, obnoxious label like most supplements had on them. It wasn't that big of a bottle really. Maybe the size of a vitamin bottle if that. The shiny blue and silver label had big block letters on it: "MegaG.R.O.W.: The new formula for Gaining Rapidly Over Weeks. Helps increase your bulk when paired with a healthy diet and workout regimen."
"What the hell," Seb said under his breath, turning the bottle over in his hand.
Instructions and supplement facts filled the rest of the label. Continuing to read it he found that it was only to be taken 1 pill at a time with no more than max 2 pills in a day. There was a list of side effects like weight gain and- well, Seb stopped there. Weight gain as a side effect? He scanned the area again to see if anyone had noticed him yet. Seeing no one he quickly ditched the box in the recycling bin and went to his car to hide the bottle.
