Brittany's Belly - Part 13

40 minutes later the delivery boy came and Britt graciously answered the door. She took the large brown bag from the delivery boy and hauled it back to the kitchen. Once there she noticed Mrs. Cox coming in from the patio. “Looks like your lunch arrived darling, just interested in what you decided to get.” Britt thought this was kinda weird, but what was she gonna do, not show her? Britt tore open the bag revealing the sub shop order she had placed. It looked like she had ordered enough food for a family, as usually her eyes were bigger than her stomach. There was a chicken parm and a steak bomb sub, a side of french fries and chicken fingers, and the appetizers looked so good she had ordered mac and cheese bites as well as mozzarella sticks. “Oh wow, it looks like quite the lunch. Remember we don’t like to waste a scrap in this house, I better not see any of that in the trash.” Mrs. Cox put her sunglasses back on and headed for the slider.

Damn, Britt had forgotten about that rule, and this was quite the big lunch. Britt figured she’d try her best, and if she couldn’t finish she’d cross that bridge when she got there. Most of the items disappeared quickly, victims of the coed’s healthy appetite. Half of both subs, all the mac and cheese bites, most of the mozzarella sticks, and half the chicken, not to mention several french fries. That was when she started to slow down though. Her belly had grown, accepting this overly fried feast. With each bite her shirt rode up that much more. Britt wasn’t focused on her shirt though, she was focused on the food. Part of her wanted to polish it all off, you know because of the starving she would do at home, the other part of her didn’t want to face Mrs. Cox were she not to finish. What could she do with the leftovers? Hide them? That was about to be not an option as it looked like Mrs. Cox was heading back inside.

“How are we doing dear?” She asked, as Britt was hunched over her meal, eating as much as she could. “My, my, my, looks like we still have quite a bit left. I hope there is room for it all, you’ll be finishing that all before you leave.” Britt nodded as she took another bite. Britt, unable to think clearly, felt like she had done this to herself, and placed no blame on Mrs. Cox, even though the diabolical older woman had orchestrated the whole thing.

Bite after bite. Britt had filled her belly many times before, many times this week in fact. Pushing herself past normal limits, well it was being normal. Britt knew she could keep getting bites down. Soon the subs were gone, the mozzarella sticks too. She only had two chicken tenders left, and about half a container of french fries. Each bite was laborious, but Britt soldiered on, she had this in the bag at this point. She might have seen the finish line in sight, but what she didn’t notice was how big her belly had gotten in the meantime.

Mrs. Cox surely did though. It had been so easy to get Britt to eat so much, Carol almost thought her plan was too simple. It seemed like she could start phase two of her plan much sooner than anticipated. Britt’s belly had swelled so much due to her meal, Carol was convinced Britt had gained several pounds just in her first two shifts here alone.

Under Mrs. Cox's watchful eye, Britt finished her entire lunch, travesty avoided. “Well done Brittany. It looks like you’ve done quite well. I think you’ve earned yourself a break. Plus the house is looking great. Why don’t you go relax?” Britt didn’t need to be told twice, her bloated belly spoke for itself. Britt gingerly made her way to a couch, while Mrs. Cox went back outside with a grin on her face.

Britt was pleased with her lunch performance. It didn’t go entirely to plan, but she made the most of it. Her belly was full, an aid to get her through the rest of the day. Her gut might have looked big, but she knew it would shrink back down to normal size, she just hoped that would happen by the time her mom came to get her. But Mrs. Cox told her she could take a load off, so that’s what Britt intended to do. She watched TV from the couch for the next two hours which is when her mom arrived. Again Britt tried to hide her not completely settled stomach in the car, with fair success, and then hid in her room for the rest of the day.

Dinner time came, and all Britt had on her mind was fast food burgers. She couldn’t wait for her measly dinner to fly by so she could take her sister up on a trip to grab some real food. *Knock knock knock* Here she was, Steph to come tell her the plan for the night. “Her sis, dinner is ready. And sorry I can’t hang out with you tonight, I’ve got a huge test tomorrow I’ve got to study for.” Britt's jaw dropped, and her stomach tightened. She was flabbergasted, she didn't know what to do. After dinner grub seemed like such a sure thing, now all she had was a crappy dinner and hours of an empty stomach before bed. And tomorrow she had nothing to look forward to! Britt was almost in tears, that was until Steph continued. "But hey, I thought of something. Since mom’s starving you out, I bought a bunch of cans of soda. All the bubbles should help keep your stomach kinda full."

It wasn't exactly burgers, but it was something. Britt was intrigued with the idea. Her main goal was to not go hungry, but as long as it felt like she wasn't going hungry, that worked too, right? Britt started to think of all the possibilities she could use this trick for, since her mother wanted her to starve pretty much 24/7. Tonight would be the perfect test, since Steph wasn't able to go out. "You think I could use those after my workout as well? I was so hungry afterwards, and of course mom wouldn't let me eat anything."

"Yeah, you could even have one before to help you through it. I'm gonna keep them in my room though, cuz if mom catches you with them… well I don't think I'd have an older sister any more." Steph joked.

Britt laughed. "Fair point." The two of them headed down for dinner, where no surprise, Britt's meal was underwhelming. Afterwards though, back in their rooms, Steph snuck over a can of cola for her sister. Britt chugged it down, wiping away the drips that had formed at the corners of her mouth before crushing the empty can. *Urp!* she softly burped. "Yeah that totally hit the spot."

*Why not take one for the road." Steph said, handing her sister another one. After several nights of fast food grub, Steph knew one small can of soda wasn't going to be enough for her, it was barely a 20th of the calories she was used to getting, but it was a little extra something. She knew her sister wouldn't be able to resist drinking more, so she had stocked up on quite a bit.

Britt took the extra can back to her room, and cracked it open later that night once her stomach had settled. Britt whittled the night away. She had been home closing in on a week, and hadn't done much yet, not that she had wanted to, she wanted to relax after having been in school all year. She had been kept busy though, two full shifts with Mrs. Cox so far, and a full day of working out, which she could look forward to again tomorrow. She had at least enjoyed a couple of nights out with her sister. It wasn't anything glamorous since they were just getting fast food, not like they were going to 2am frat parties like she was used to, but it was something out of the house. She wanted more for herself, but at the same time, she almost wished she had more time to just veg out. At least tonight she had that. She spent the night playing on her phone, watching TV, and just lounging in her room. It was nice, and she was thankful that she had some bubby soda to keep her belly full. *Urp!*
