Quitting the gym

Chapter 2

The next morning Jess rolled out of bed and yawned and stretched, her sleep shirt rolling up to expose her slightly soft midriff. She walked out into the kitchen and saw Rita hovering near the blender before pressing the large green button to activate the blades.

“Whatcha up to?” Jess rubbed the crust from her eyes to see better what was happening.

“Oh just making an after run protein shake.” Rita hummed and bounced along as she poured the thick smoothie into a glass and began drinking it up.

Jess couldn’t help but let her eyes wander down to Rita’s body, checking it instinctually. The bloating from last nights pizza binge was almost completely gone, but there was still a sense of fullness to Rita’s figure. Now that Jess knew she was drinking protein shakes, things could get easier. Nothing makes you gain weight like a protein shake without a workout. But that would mean sabotaging Rita’s morning runs. Jess mulled on it and decided to think about it later, telling herself she didn’t want to fatten up her new roommate.

“How about some real breakfast? I can make pancakes for us.” Jess stepped up and started unpacking a box full of pots and pans. “Long as you have the stuff to make it. I’ll buy more when I go shopping today.” Jess assured.

“Mmm, usually I try not to eat with my workout shakes, but I’ll make an exception this one time.” Rita smiled politely and sat down at the counter, eager to enjoy some pancakes. Honestly, Rita had no idea how to cook. She had never learned how to cook so having a new roommate who could was an incredible blessing. The most she’s ever learned was how to chop up a salad or throw a pre-made meal into the oven.

Jess watched her roommate sit down and began mixing up the ingredients and setting the stove. She felt Rita’s eyes on her, then after a while they drifted to her phone. When she was distracted Jess took a large slab of butter and put it between the already cooked pancakes. Jess also made sure to put extra chocolate chips in the batter, and even dusted them with powdered sugar before slathering them in more syrup and butter. Hopefully Rita wouldn’t notice, and if she did well Jess was still early enough along that she could always fein innocence and claim that’s how she ate her pancakes normally.

Although, Jess did save some pancakes for her with a little less calories added to them, wouldn’t want to ruin her own figure. Not that there was much to ruin, Jess was already soft, but she didn’t particularly plan on getting any bigger.

“Here you go.” Jess set down a plate in front of Rita and stood facing her from the other side of the counter. “Here’s the syrup and butter.” Jess also slid them across, even though they were already drowning in melted butter and sugar.

“Thanks Jess!! This smells so so good.” Rita took her first eager bite and her eyes lit up. “Wow!!” She said through a stuffed mouth. “Mmmf, this is, mmmm so good.” She took bite after bite.

Jess was a little disappointed that she wouldn’t be able to watch Rita’s running shorts get tighter and tighter as she ate from this angle, but watching her face scrunch in delight from each fattening bite was almost better. Besides, seeing the damage after would be a delicious surprise.

As to not make it too obvious, Jess also picked up her plate of pancakes, just two, and began eating them slowly. She cut them into small bites so Rita would look up and constantly see Jess eating, enticing her to eat more. And Rita did eat more. She ate six of the pancakes, going back for a second helping, and then a third. It was almost like she hadn’t had pancakes in years.

On Rita’s third helping she started to slow down and Jess saw her push a bit away from the counter in her stool. The tank top she was wearing was very stretchy and showed off her beautiful cleavage. It also showed off her figure and Jess was looking forward to the reveal.

“All done?” Jess asked and she took Rita’s plate to go wash it in the sink.

“Yeah. Wow! I’m so stuffed.” Rita groaned. “You know I haven’t eaten like that in a long time. If I’m being honest, I don’t really know how to cook, so thank you for making those for us.” Jess started to blush. The implications of her not knowing how to cook meant this would be easier and easier.

Rita finally stood up from her chair and Jess turned an even darker shade of red. Her tank top clung tightly to a round belly, her belly button pushing through the fabric. Her shorts had ridden up in the back and her ass was on full display. Her abs were long swallowed by a bloated and full stomach that stretched even further than it had last night.

“I’m more than happy to cook for us. In fact, I’ll get some meals at the grocery store, how does that sound?” Jess offered as she watched Rita stumble over to the couch and turn on the tv. She began to fiddle with her shorts and tank top, noticing their tightness but presumably too embarrassed to adjust them or change.

“That sounds wonderful! I’m really lucky to have you as a roommate.” Rita glanced over at Jess starry eyed and grateful. She was full and happy, ready to curl up in a ball and nap the day away.
