chapter 4 tricks and treats part 1

Driving with a stuffed belly wasn't as easy as Danielle had assumed it would be. It was Halloween, and her best friends Amber and Justine were waiting for her at the big annual Halloween costume contest a local radio station was throwing. The winner for best costume was going to take home a $1,000 prize, which the girls each wanted badly. You had to be 18 years old to get in, and this was the first year they could attend. They'd been talking about this day for a few years now.

The three girls had been best friends for as long as they could remember. They remained close through all the ups and downs of growing up, even as puberty attempted to drive a wedge between them. Amber and Danielle came out the other side looking pretty similar to one another, with somewhat thin physiques. They were cute enough to get their fair share of looks from the boys, for sure. Justine, on the other hand, had been transformed into a real beauty. All of a sudden she had the attention of every guy at school, or more specifically her thin waist and huge boobs had their attention. She went from being just another girl to "that hot chick with the killer tits" in a matter of months. She was spending a lot of time with her boyfriend lately, but she hadn't forgotten her friends, and still hung out often with Amber and Danielle.

As she pulled into the parking lot, Danielle caught site of her friends leaning on Justine's car. She took a deep breath. She hadn't told her friends about her new "hobby", or how horny overeating made her. Ever since that afternoon in the locker room a week earlier, when she and Heather were getting teased, she couldn't stop thinking about being fat and having people stare at you. She wanted to know that feeling badly, and had decided that this costume party would be her best chance to do so. She could fill herself up without letting anyone know just how much she loved it. She could have it all; she could walk around in public with her belly stuffed to the brim and still keep her secret hidden from everyone. All she needed was a costume that required a big fake belly.

Danielle got out of the car and waved to her friends. Amber was wearing a hand-sewn exact replica of the yellow dress worn by Belle in Beauty and the Beast, her favorite movie, thanks to her rich father who loved to spoil her. Justine was dressed as a sexy nurse, which wasn't very creative but really showed off her glowing cleavage.

"So what's your costume?" Amber asked. "We're dying to know the big secret." Danielle took another deep breath before removing her coat and revealing her hospital gown and hugely distended belly.

"I'm a pregnant woman," she said nervously, unsure if her friends were going to fall for her trick. They wound up laughing, which relieved a lot of her concern.

Amber placed a hand on Danielle's large belly. "I think I felt a kick," she joked.

"This fake belly feels so real," Justine added as she poked a finger into Danielle's stuffed gut. "You've got to let me try it on after the contest."

"Yeah, definitely," Danielle told Justine, much calmer now that her friends seemingly believed her story. "Now I just need my boobs to blow up like yours and I'll really look pregnant." Everyone had a good laugh at that. Of course there was no fake belly for anyone to try on after the contest, but she'd deal with that problem later.

After signing up for the contest at the front table, the girls wandered around the party, taking part in the games and activities available around the large room. The lady at the sign-in table definitely thought Danielle was wearing a fake belly, too, as did seemingly everyone else at the party. Even though she was queasy from all the food she'd eaten that day, she was incredibly turned on by the fact that she was walking around in public with her big, stuffed belly sticking out in front of her.

It wasn't long before Danielle had to excuse herself and head to the bathroom. She had drank a gallon of milk during her pre-party stuffing session and had to pee like crazy. As she walked into the women's restroom she passed a middle-aged woman who was in a very similar costume to hers. Danielle attempted to just walk by the stranger and slip into a stall without saying anything but the woman unfortunately noticed her.

"Nice costume," the woman said with a friendly smile.

"Uh, thanks. You too."

"Let me ask you a question," the woman said, stepping up closer to Danielle. "Is yours uncomfortable as hell because mine is pinching and poking me left and right." She laughed as she knocked on her fake plastic belly like it was a door. She then attempted to do the same to Danielle's belly and was horrified when she realized there was no hard plastic beneath the young girl's hospital gown.

"Oh my god I am so, so sorry," she said, feeling terribly. "I thought you were wearing a fake belly, too." She grabbed Danielle's shoulders and tried to comfort her as pain shot through her stuffed, swollen center.

"It's ok," Danielle said meekly. She was terrified that she now had to explain to this stranger about how she stuffed herself for hours to make it look like she was pregnant. Her face turned bright red as she waited for the woman to expose her and call her a freak. Instead, she was surprised to hear what the woman said next.

"I hope I didn't startle little... him or her," she said sweetly, still with worry in her voice. She thought Danielle really was pregnant.

"Him," Danielle responded, unsure of where the words came from. "It's a boy."

"Aw, congratulations," the woman said. "I have three boys of my own. They're older now but gosh they are so cute when they're little. How far along are you? You don't look like you've got too much longer to go," she laughed, patting Danielle's belly.

"I'm seven months," Danielle lied. Why was she going along with this? She couldn't believe this woman actually thought she was pregnant. She nervously placed a hand on the underside of her protruding belly, which the woman noticed immediately.

"How do you like having such a big ol' belly?" she asked.

"It's not so bad."

"I bet you feel as big as a house, huh?" the woman teased, her hand still resting on Danielle's belly. "I know I did."

"Yeah, I feel so huge," Danielle replied truthfully.

"That's okay. I promise it'll all be worth it. Well, I'd better get back in there, my husband is waiting," the woman said, giving Danielle's belly one final pat. "I'm so sorry about hitting you like that, I don't know what the heck came over me. Best of luck to you and your little boy." With that she left the bathroom, and Danielle hurried into the stall farthest from the door, still needing to pee badly.
