Of love and Bellies

REWRITE: It was a warm spring day, Sam and Jacob found themselves heading to a newly opened buffet. Sam was the one to offer the idea, but Jacob had easily agreed. Though as they got closer, Sam was reminded of his real reason coming here. Images of drawings Jacob had hidden in a drawer returned for a moment, all of boys with big bellies and wide hips.

On a pleasant spring afternoon, Sam and Jacob embarked on their way to a recently inaugurated buffet. It was Sam who had suggested the plan, and Jacob readily agreed. However, as they approached their destination, Sam's true motive for coming here resurfaced in his mind. Briefly, he recalled the images of drawings that Jacob had concealed in a drawer – depictions of boys with generous bellies and broad hips.

Sam had heard how fattening this buffet could be, and hoped he could gain the courage to confess his feelings if he was a little bigger.

As they stepped into the buffet, the aroma of sizzling meats and freshly baked bread filled the air, enticing their hungry stomachs. Sam's heart raced with anticipation, not just for the delectable food that awaited them, but for the possibility of finally revealing his true feelings to Jacob.

They made their way to a table near the buffet line, their eyes widening at the sight of the overflowing trays of food. Sam's gaze shifted from dish to dish, his mind filled with conflicting thoughts. Should he confess his feelings now, or wait until they were both stuffed with food? Perhaps he could use the excuse of the buffet's tempting offerings to ease into the conversation.

As they began to pile their plates high with savory delights, Sam couldn't help but notice the effect the all-you-can-eat feast was having on their bodies. Jacob's soccer-toned legs seemed to stretch the fabric of his pants, while Sam's wide hips and round belly pressed against the waistband of his jeans. The realization that they were both indulging in this feast together, their bodies growing fuller with each bite, brought a sense of comfort and reassurance to Sam's anxious heart.

With each passing plate, their laughter echoed throughout the restaurant, their eyes meeting in stolen glances that held a hint of something more. The food seemed to melt away their inhibitions, creating an atmosphere of warmth and vulnerability. Sam could feel his courage growing, fueled by the shared experience of indulgence and the knowledge that he wasn't alone in his desires.

As they reached for another plate, their fingers brushed against each other, sending a jolt of electricity through Sam's body. It was now or never. With a deep breath, he turned to Jacob, his voice filled with a mix of nervousness and determination. "Jacob, there's something I've been wanting to tell you..."

Sam took a deep breath, the feeling of his legs noticably getting fatter was strange, but he definitely was enjoying it. Though he let that thought pass by as he began to speak.

"Jacob, there's something I've been wanting to tell you," Sam's voice wavered slightly, his heart pounding in his chest. He paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts, his gaze locked with Jacob's.

Jacob's eyes widened with curiosity, his own heart racing in anticipation. "What is it, Sam?" he asked, his voice filled with genuine interest.

Sam took another deep breath, feeling a newfound confidence welling up within him. "I... I really like you, Jacob," he finally confessed, his voice steady and unwavering. "I've liked you for a long time now, and I just couldn't keep it to myself any longer."

Jacob's face lit up with surprise, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "Sam, I... I like you too," he admitted, his voice filled with a mix of relief and excitement. "I've been wanting to tell you for so long, but I was afraid it would ruin our friendship."

Sam's heart soared at Jacob's words, a wave of relief washing over him. In that moment, their eyes locked, and they both knew that their friendship had transformed into something deeper, something more profound. The buffet, once just a backdrop for their confession, now became a symbol of their journey, of the courage it took to embrace their true selves.

As they continued to eat, their plates piled high with food, their bodies growing fuller and rounder, they found solace in the knowledge that their love for each other was shared. The buffet had become a place of acceptance, where their bodies and their hearts were free to expand, just as their love for one another did.

And so, as they indulged in the delicious offerings before them, their bellies and butts expanding with each bite, Sam and Jacob knew that their love was not defined by societal norms or the size of their bodies. It was a love that transcended the superficial, a love that celebrated their shared vulnerability and the beauty of their connection.

Little did they know, this all-you-can-eat buffet would become the cornerstone of their love story, a place where they could be unapologetically themselves, nourishing not just their bodies but their souls as well.

As their time there neared its end, a waitress had dropped off their receipt. Sam had paid for it, and in return they got a complimentary candy. Though only one, and the waitress winked before moving to other tables. There was something special about the candy, and the boys didn't know who should eat it.

Sam had a slight idea what the candy could do, and blushed as he pocketed it. "Maybe we should try that at my place, in my room." He said, Jacob blushing as he nodded as well and the two left the buffet, heading to Sam's house. While Sam had an idea of what the candy did, he had no idea that the candy held over a trillion calories in it, all of which would go straight to his butt and legs.

As they arrived at Sam's house, their hearts raced with anticipation. The air was thick with a mixture of nervousness and excitement. They made their way up to Sam's room, their footsteps echoing in the hallway. Sam's mind was still preoccupied with the mysterious candy, its potential effects lingering in his thoughts.

Once inside the room, Sam retrieved the candy from his pocket, his hands trembling slightly. He held it up between them, its vibrant colors catching the light. "I think this candy might... do something special," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Jacob's eyes widened with curiosity, his gaze fixed on the candy. "What do you mean, Sam? What does it do?" he asked, his voice filled with both excitement and apprehension.

Sam shrugged, a mix of uncertainty and anticipation on his face. "I'm not entirely sure, but... I think it might have some effect on our bodies," he explained, his voice tinged with a hint of excitement. "Maybe it's a way for us to... embrace our desires, even more."

Jacob's cheeks flushed with a deeper shade of red, his gaze shifting between Sam and the candy. "Well, there's only one way to find out," he said, a mischievous smile playing at his lips.

With a shared sense of adventure, they unwrapped the candy and popped it into their mouths simultaneously. The taste was sweet and intoxicating, filling their senses with a rush of sugary delight. They savored the flavor, unaware of the transformative power that lay within.

As the minutes passed, a tingling sensation began to spread through their bodies. Sam felt a warmth radiating from within, starting in his stomach and spreading outward. He glanced down, his eyes widening in surprise as he noticed his once-slender legs growing plumper, his pants straining against the expanding flesh.

Jacob, too, felt the effects of the candy, his own body undergoing a subtle but noticeable change. His soccer-toned legs, once lean and muscular, began to fill out, becoming rounder and softer. The fabric of his pants stretched to accommodate the newfound fullness.

Their eyes met, a mix of awe and excitement reflected in their gazes. The candy had granted their bodies a physical manifestation of their desires, their secret crushes on each other now visible in the form of their expanding curves. In that moment, they embraced the changes, feeling a sense of liberation and acceptance wash over them.

Little did they know, this candy had unleashed a force that would test the limits of their desires and their love for one another. The journey they were about to embark on would challenge their perceptions of beauty, acceptance, and the true meaning of love.

And so, as their bodies continued to transform, their bellies growing rounder and their legs becoming plumper, Sam and Jacob held onto each other, knowing that their love was strong enough to withstand any obstacle that came their way.

The two began to explore their expanding bodies, which continued to expand for another hour.

and Jacob found themselves embracing the changes with open hearts and minds. They reveled in the newfound sensations and the physical manifestation of their desires. The candy had become a catalyst for their journey of self-discovery and acceptance.

As the days went by, Sam and Jacob's bodies continued to change, their bellies and butts growing fuller and rounder. They experimented with different outfits and poses, celebrating their unique curves and the beauty that emerged from within. They documented their journey through photographs, capturing moments of joy, vulnerability, and love.

Their friendship blossomed into a deep and passionate romance, fueled by their shared experiences and the unwavering support they offered each other. The once-shy Sam found confidence in his wider hips, embracing his body with pride. Jacob, too, found solace in his bulkier legs, realizing that they were a testament to his strength and athleticism.

Together, they navigated the challenges that came with their transformed bodies, facing judgment and prejudice from those who couldn't understand their love. But they remained steadfast, their bond unbreakable. They found solace in the knowledge that their love was not defined by societal norms or physical appearances, but by the depth of their connection and the authenticity of their feelings.

As their story continued to unfold, Sam and Jacob became beacons of love and acceptance, inspiring others to embrace their true selves and celebrate their bodies. Their journey served as a reminder that love knows no boundaries and that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.

And so, as they stood side by side, their bodies fuller and more radiant than ever, Sam and Jacob knew that their love had transcended the confines of their own hearts. It had become a testament to the power of acceptance, the beauty of self-love, and the strength of a bond that could withstand any obstacle.

Their story was far from over, and they were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead, hand in hand, their hearts filled with love and their bodies a testament to the transformative power of acceptance.
