Chapter 11 - the competition

Who would have guessed all that time ago that Jenny and Damon would be sharing their first date at an eating competition? But there was Jenny, getting ready for her big date, not dressing up like she would for any other guy, but dressing down, with her most stretchy pants and t shirt that she didn't mind getting covered in burger sauces. Tonight, she meant business.

Damon picked her up from the house looking much the same; stretch pants and an old t shirt. Although, even his loosest t shirt couldn't hide the sphere of a belly he was getting. "I'm starving. Are you?" he asked straight away.

They had both agreed that the best strategy would be for them both not to eat the entire day. "Starving!" smiled Jenny, closing the door behind her and placing her arm in Damon's as he walked her to his car.

Jenny and Damon were shocked by the amount of people at the eating competition. The place was packed. As expected, it was mostly students with barely any experience in serious overindulgence, like Jenny and Damon. However, there were a few who looked like more competition for them both.

Jenny and Damon sat down, feeling nervous and holding each other's hands to feel better. Finally, Damon was called up alongside the twenty other male contenders. At over 300lbs, Damon was one of the heaviest there, with a much larger ass than any of them; but size didn't always equal success in this game.

Before too long, the horn was blown and the men began guzzling the burgers down; Jenny could hardly watch, she was so nervous. As each burger was eaten, the men would turn over a number to show the audience how many they had eaten.

Three minutes in and Damon was way ahead of most of the guys, who were looking around, awestruck at the gluttony of the other contestants. One by one, they started to bow out as Damon kept eating. Jenny cheered with a sense of pride; that was her man up there, stuffing his face in front of everyone. Her mind began to wander, not for the first time, thinking about how large Damon would end up one day.

After fifteen minutes, Damon was starting to slow down, letting a slim, hardy professional eater take the lead. Once he got 3 burgers ahead of Damon, the whistle was blown and the competition was over.

"You did amazing!" Jenny burst out when Damon finally waddled back over to her. She could see the fleshy skin of his underbelly under his enlarged gut.

"I could have done better," grunted Damon, feeling a little disappointed as he rubbed his tight stomach. "Maybe next year..." he grinned, patting his heavy gut, "...when I've had a bit more time to work on this thing."

Jenny was almost too distracted to notice her name being called, as the competition continued on to the ladies. Jenny looked around at the fifteen other women. She was heavier than all of them, which gave her an odd sense of pride. Once again, the whistle was blown and they were off.

Jenny couldn't believe how hungry she was until she started eating. The meat and bread were flying down her throat as she tore in to each one. She could see Damon cheering her on from down below, but she barely looked at anyone else. It was ten minutes before she even looked up to see the other female competitors had now decreased to five. Five, sluggish, slow eaters who were staring at her with a mixture of disgust and awe. Jenny just continued on. Biting, chewing, swallowing and starting all over again. Finally, loud whistle was blown and a man came up behind her, lifting her arm in to the air. She had won!

"You know, you really were amazing tonight," Damon whispered to her on the back seat of the cab home. He felt too bloated and full to drive home, but Jenny was still on a high. "You'll have to teach me how it's done..." Damon smiled, rubbing her swollen belly, under her large t shirt.

"Oh, I already learned from the best," smiled Jenny, patting Damon's heavy gut proudly. His face burst into a grin and he leaned in to kiss her, both knowing that they would never be this slim ever again.
