Ian had never felt so big in his life, and he wasn’t sure what to make of it. Tentatively, he lifted the hem of his shirt, exposing his pale, round tummy. He cringed at the sight in the mirror.
“Hmmm…” he mused nervously. “I hope this isn’t here to stay.” He gave his belly a gentle pat; it had almost no give. “How fat can you get in one meal anyway?” Ian tried to dismiss the thought that his flat tummy might be gone for good after how he’d gorged himself.
Still lifting his tee shirt, Ian turned to the side so he could see his rounded profile. His tummy stuck out at least a couple inches more than usual. The potbelly looked strange on his otherwise small frame.
Ian frowned and took in a deep breath, pushing his stomach out as far as he could. Placing a hand on either side, he shook his belly, making it bounce slightly. He felt both disgusted with himself and morbidly fascinated at the same time. His taut skin and bloated appearance were almost cartoonish. He couldn’t imagine anyone, even his mother, seeing him in this condition.
As if on cue, there was a soft knock on Ian’s bedroom door. His heart jumped and he reflexively yanked his shirt back down, concealing his overfed tummy- more or less, at least.
“Ian?” His mom called, voice muffled slightly behind the door. “Are you feeling alright? You rushed away from dinner so quickly.”
Ian’s belly ached at the mention of dinner. He scrunched his face and clutched his tummy, stifling a burp. “Yeah, I’m alright, just wanted to keep playing my game,” he lied.
“Are you sure? Can I come in and check on you?” His mother asked sweetly.
Ian looked nervously at his bloated tummy in the mirror again. If he let his mom come in, she’d see him in this humiliating condition. But if he said no, she might really worry he’s hiding something from her. With a sigh, Ian responded…
