Chapter 5 - home for the holidays

Being back home was awkward. Kelly had gotten so used to her own routines in college and having to fall back in line with everyone else was more than a little irritating. She felt the stares of her family as she walked about with a good 25lbs of new chub on her; their judgements as she put each bit of food in to her mouth.

Kelly stood in her room, sorting through all of the clothes she had left behind before college. She tried different pieces on, getting excited as the material struggled to contain her new excess flesh. Standing in the mirror, she admired the new chub in her ass, stroking her fingers across the cheeks and watching the new fat ripple through to her expanding thighs. Why hadn't she done this years ago? she thought with a thrill of excitement.

"Are you looking after yourself in college?" her mom asked sceptically, eyeing Kelly's ass up as she walked behind her one day.

"Yes mom!" Kelly sighed impatiently.

"Maybe you should think about some exercise classes in the New Year," she suggested in her least subtle way.

"Maybe," Kelly lied. She had no intention of jeopardising her fat gains through exercise. Now the fat was building on her body, she wanted more of it than ever. She wanted to be three times the size! But in order to do that, Kelly would have to eat; and that was not something she could do here at home. Not with all of the eyes on her.

In the end, Kelly couldn't take it anymore, packing herself off to college early after getting some more shifts from the part-time job she had taken on to earn some more cash to fund her fat gaining.

It was nice for Kelly to have the place to herself. It felt incredibly liberating to strut about the house in just her underwear, like all of the jock boys did. She stepped on the scales, the morning after getting back seeing the numbers creep up to 157lbs, laughing aloud at the number. She grabbed the fat collecting around her middle, noticing that she could handle more and more of it every day. But wouldn't it be great to start off the New Year in two days' time, at 160lbs?

Kelly gorged herself better than ever before. The supermarkets were practically giving away their most fattening produce now that the big day was over and Kelly was determined to harvest the calories from every single one of them. So much so, that by the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve, she sat there asleep, clutching her growing, spherically bloated stomach. When she awoke in the morning, she had more than achieved her goal.

"Someone had a good Christmas," Gus mocked dryly as he walked into the kitchen in his boxers, still half asleep; his finger out and poking Kelly in her softening middle.

Kelly grinned as Gus turned away. She really hoped her gains really were that noticeable.

But as Gus fiddled about in the cupboards, Kelly noticed something different about him. He seemed to have a bigger presence about him and it was only when Gus turned back around to use the sink that Kelly noticed that his six-pack was all but gone.

"You can talk!" Kelly mocked, appreciating the sight of a little extra thickness on Gus. "What the hell have you been eating?"

"This always happens to me this time of year," Gus sighed casually. "I always gain about 15lbs over the holidays and then lose it by the end of January."

Kelly huffed to herself. If only she found it as easy to gain 15lbs. She'd gorged herself all over the holidays and had only gained ten; pretty meagre in comparison. Maybe she would just have to start eating like Gus.
