chapter 2 • pasta

After a month of living alone and eating a little more than usual, Olivias clothes begin to look a little tight on her. A small muffin top forms in every bottoms that she owns.

Felix has been leaving his baked goods outside her door whenever she isn’t home. He has grown to look forward to the dinners they have to get her because they always over eat.

Olivia gets a message from Felix asking if she could come over to his place. Instead of responding she goes and knocks at his door.

“You’re finally letting me see your place?” She asks excitedly as he opens the door.

Olivia is wearing one of her smaller sized pants and a crop top which cut into her new found chub. Felix looks at her up and down wishing he could hold her.

As Olivia walks in and Felix walks behind her, she trips on her own feet. Felix having quick reflexes catches her waist squeezing her new found pudge. Olivia turns red as she thanks him and avoids eye contact.

“Why did you invite me over?” She asks.

“I thought maybe, we could watch a movie together after we have dinner,” he says.

“You made dinner? What is it?”

“Pasta, but I may have made a little bit too much and some of the ingredients I used might not be good for tomorrow,” he lies just to make sure they finish all of it.

“Oh, that’s okay! I’m actually pretty hungry and a little extra pasta never did any harm.”

Felix serves himself a little more than a serving while he serves the rest of the past to Olivias bowl which is not noticeably bigger than his bowl.

Once Olivia finishes her pasta, it is evident her stomach needs to breathe but she doesn’t unbutton them. They sit down on the couch ready to watch the movie. The tightness of the waistband cuts into her pudge pushing it out. As they watch it they unconsciously get closer and closer to each other. Felix decides to put his arm around her waist and Olivia lets him. He pulls her in closer accidentally squeezing her a little too tight making her let out a little burp. He can tell she wants to unbutton her pants so he motions if he could do so and Olivia nods her head. He puts her in between his legs and unbuttoned her pants. She takes a deep breath letting her belly expand.

At that moment, Olivia wishes Felix could just hold her belly, but is afraid to say something. Felix wishes to hold her belly and rub his thumbs in circles. They just sit cuddling together as they finish the movie.

Once the movie finishes Olivia stands up. “The pasta was great, and I enjoyed cuddling with you,” she says with a tint of red on her checks.

“Me too! We should do this more often!” Alex says smiling and couldn’t help but to notice Olivia’s still undone pants.

“Oh…” Olivia says as she tries to hide it “it seems as these pants couldn’t handle the pasta.” She manages to button it by lifting her belly which now rests more noticeably on top of the waistband.

With that they walk to the door and close their apartment doors. Olivia decides to take a warm bath to think about what just happened.

She for sure likes Felix, and she is certain he likes her too. They both enjoy over indulging from time to time. She continues to think about all the things she and Felix could do together as she gets ready and goes to sleep.
