chapter 4 - giving into temptation

As Chris watched Lana eat the Oreos and cake frosting, he knew then that whatever that drug he gave her was, it made her vulnerable to temptation. He bought the frosting and cookies a few days earlier and she had given in the first time she saw it.

Chris was up early the next morning and he checked to see how much Lana had ate. At least 2/3 of the can of frosting was gone as well as most of the Oreos. He estimated Lana had ate about 2500 calories worth of fat and sugar standing there last night in the kitchen.
He wondered how easy she would be to tempt again. That evening on his way home from work he stopped by a bakery and picked her up a large slice of Rumchata Cheesecake and 2 cake pops. He had them wrap it nicely and presented it to Lana that evening saying, "I brought you a surprise!". He handed her the bakery box and she opened it finding the Rumchata Cheesecake and cake pops. "Oh, I can't have this, you know that Chris.", Lana said and started to hand the box back to him.
"I just saw it when I ran by the store on the way home and I know how much you like Rumchata and Cheesecake, at least try it, it won't hurt anything to try it.", Chris replied.
"OK, but just a bite.", Lana said.
Chris handed her a fork and she took a bite. "MMM", she said as she swallowed the fork full of cheesecake. Chris watched her as she took another bite. He said, "It's really good huh?".

"It's so good.", she replied and took another bite, then another, then she picked up the half that was left and stuffed it into her mouth. She chewed and swallowed it and was then obviously angry with herself for eating it. "I should not have eaten that", she said. Chris took the plate from her and rinsed it off. Lana put the box containing the two cake pops into the refrigerator and went to change out of her nice work clothes. Chris could tell her pants were just a bit tighter on her as she walked to the bedroom.

That evening Chris made fettuccine and Italian bread. He served Lana a generous portion to see if she would eat it. Sure enough, despite her initial protests, she cleaned her plate of the rich fettuccine and ate half the loaf of bread. That night Chris looked in the refrigerator and saw that Lana had ate both cake pops. Chris did the math and estimated she had eaten about 2700 calories that night between dinner and desserts.

The next morning Chris got up early and made Lana breakfast in bed. A tall stack of Pancakes layered with Nutella and smothered in butter.

Lana didn't know it, but she would be gaining another 3 pounds that week.
