Emily took one last glance at Peter before loading her plate high with food. She may be in need of a diet, but she was far to hungry to start now. Still, she couldn't help thinking that Peter was up to something with the way that he kept watching her and smirking. She found herself tugging at her shirt almost constantly as he began eating his breakfast. She swore her shirt was feeling tighter than it had just a few minutes ago, but there was no way that could be possible. Feeling her face turning red, Emily began shoveling the food on her plate into her waiting mouth, and eager belly.
She glanced down at her empty plate, surprised at how quickly she had managed to finish the first plate of food. Still feeling her face burning she avoided looking at her brother as she loaded up another plate of food. Though, as she resumed eating, she glanced at her brother who had finished his breakfast and just seemed to be watching her. He was practically beaming.
"You seem hungry this morning." Peter said, a wry smile on his face as he picked up his plate and took it to the sink.
"So what?" Emily shot through a mouthful of food.
"Nothing. Just making an observation." Peter chuckled heading out of the kitchen.
Emily watched him leave, making sure he was gone before resuming her large feast. Everything tasted so good, but no matter how much she ate she didn't seem to get any fuller. As if to prove this point her belly let out a low growl as she filled up another plate with food. If she kept eating like this she really would need to go on a diet. Still, one meal wasn't going to kill her.
Finally finishing the third plate of food, she stood up, feeling really heavy and sluggish as she tugged at her shirt. Her belly really did seem to be poking out now. Though she wasn't surprised with how much she'd just eaten. Still, if she ate more meals like this her belly might start to get bigger from more than just being full.
She plodded heavily across the cool tile floor and deposited her plate into the sink with a slight clatter as the dishes shifted. She turned on the water, trying to wash the leftover food down the drain when she felt a warmth radiate from the back of her neck. She turned around, looking around the empty kitchen. What was weird was that, that wasn't the first time she'd felt that feeling this morning. Still, there wasn't anyone else around, and it wasn't like it was very uncomfortable.
She shook her head, trying to straighten her shirt as she made her way back towards her bedroom to finish getting ready for school.
She shut the door behind her as she entered her room, the smell of hairspray still lingering from before breakfast. She moved to the front of her mirror to make sure her hair was perfect before she left. She stopped, scrunching up her face as she scrutinized her reflection in the mirror. She was sure her belly was sticking out a bit more than it had earlier, and she saw the beginnings of a double chin forming on her face.
She lifted her shirt, revealing a soft middle as she twirled around, trying to examine her whole body. She was definitely fatter than she remembered, she thought as she pinched her slight love-handles. There was no way she could've gotten fat overnight. Or even just this morning. She must have been putting on weight for a while now and only noticed it now. Still, she was more worried about how her mom would react than anything else.
Honestly, people always told her that she needed to be thin, and that gaining weight was bad, but she had to admit that she'd always been intrigued by getting fat. She couldn't explain it, but every time she saw a cartoon or show where one of the character's got fat, she found herself filled with a strange excitement. That was even why she liked to hang out with the fat kids at school. She just loved admiring their bodies. Still, she'd never contemplated getting fat herself. Though it wasn't like she was really fat. She was hardly even chubby. However, at the same time it almost felt like she was still getting fatter.
She glanced at the clock, dropping her shirt as she realized that she needed to hurry up and finish getting ready for school so she wasn't late. Though, she couldn't deny her curiosity as to whether or not she was still growing and how she was still starving after her large breakfast.
