chapter 2

Perfect? : Part 2

Lex barley made it to his car before he began furiously jerking off. He wasn't thinking about why he was in the mood he just knew he hadn't felt this horny ever in his life. It only took a few seconds for him to finish and as he started to head home he couldn't help but wonder why. Why had his best friends flabby stomach turned him on? Why was it that a ***ing GUY even turned him on at all?! "Im Straight," Lex mumbled to himself. " I like women! Large boobs, small waist, and a tight round ass." Lex tried to imagine this woman, but to no avail. He couldn't seem to get hard. "I'm just tired," he mumbled " I'll be good in a few minutes." But as he started to divert his attention back to the road his mind jumped back to his Pete's stomach. He couldn't get the idea of Pete fondling his new belly out of his mind. He started visualizing Pete as his old self, his 6ft, 195-pound gym buddy, but something was wrong.
Instead of seeing Pete lifting weights or running or swimming he could only see him eating. Just sitting at a table swamped with work and grabbing the nearest pastry sitting on his desk. Then all of a sudden Pete began to change. His chiseled jaw line became rounded and doughy. His cheeks filled out and his neck seemed to widen with every bite he took. Pete stood up to reveal a taught tuxedo vest and an unfastened belt hugging his growing love handles. Pete continued eating treat after treat. Pastries, croissants, chocolates, peanut butter, taffy, cake, pie and continually squirting a can of whip cream into his puffy looking face. His slim-cut vest was now struggling to keep Pete's body contained. His vest buttons began to bow and turn inward under Pete's increasing girth. First one of the middle buttons burst and let loose Pete's pale white skin. Then the top buttons ripped off from the growing mass of his pecs getting looser and larger like heavy balloons slowly inflating. Lex heard the ripping noise from Pete's pants seems giving up to suppress his former swimmers body. His friend stood before him literally twice the man he use to be with nothing more then ankle socks and stretched Yale boxer briefs being held up by a flap of flab now hanging off Pete's former 6-pack. Lex was so enthralled that he nearly hit the car next to him, and before he realized what was happening he had swerved, avoiding the car, but colliding with a street light at the end of deserted street. When he came too a few hours later he had blood on his face, wet pants and was 2 hours late for curfew. Lex couldn't believe what had just happened. He had a pole about a foot deep into his brand new beamer he got at graduation, but it still ran so he got back in and drove home as quickly as he could.
When he got there the house was already at full chaos capacity. His oldest brother Dan had just got back from the hospital, after totaling yet another of his fathers sports cars, with a broken leg, 2 fractured rips, and bruising up and down his adonis body. The timing of Lex's crash couldn't have been worse but he had to explain to his parents why the hood of his beamer looked like a big toe with the dent he put in it. When he told them they were... mad to say the least, but more concerned when they noticed that his front teeth were missing, which was something Lex hadn't discovered yet. His parents weren't really one for disciplinary action so they didn't ground him or anything, but he was so embarrassed by the gapping hole in his flawless teeth that he would probably ground himself until it was fixed, which incidentally wouldn't be for quite a while since the family dentist was backed up for the next couple of weeks. Lex finished dealing with his parent and was so exhausted he went to his room and passed out.
The next day started as usual. His parents were out an about doing various active things and frivolous shopping while the maid was cleaning up all the crap the 3 brothers left around the house. "THIS SUCKS!" Dan yelled livid at the fact he couldn't exercise for 6months do to a stupid car crash. "I can't get fat, me and Jenna, Dan's girlfriend at the time, are gunna go to Maui for our 2 year anniversary. I can't go to the beachiest place on earth lookin like a washed up x-jock! I mean there has to be someway of maintaining this... " Dan lifted his shirt up to reveal his cut abs and tanned olive skin. Lex, head pounding and body sore from his own crash the night before, was only half listening to his brother's complaints. He was more caught up with the fact he was so horny after seeing his friend's flab that he crashed into a light pole. "How could I be gay?" Lex thought to himself. "How can I find Pete attractive? ESSPECIALLY after he gained all that weight! I have seen guys twice as hot as Pete. I mean Petey's not bad to look at. At 6ft with his crisp blue eyes, short brown hair and an angular clean shaven jaw how could that be considered ugly?" The thought of this going through Lex's head made him start to get excited again. "Maybe.... Yeah it's the crash... Definitely the crash... that's why I'm feeling this!" Lex blurted out in the middle of his brothers ranting. They both paused and stared at each other before Lex got up, remembering he was suppose to meet Pete 4 hours ago for a workout, and his brother went back to planning out his bedridden workout routine.
Lex called Pete to make up some excuse why he didn't meet him that morning and why he couldn't hang out for the next couple of weeks. He always razzed Pete about different things and didn't want to give him any ammo to make fun of his whole missing teeth situation.
"Hello..." Pete answered in a muffled voice. Lex answered, "Hey Petey. Sorry I wasn't there today I got caught up at work." Pete immediately knew he was lying since Lex never worked a day at his parent's gym, but he played along since he didn't feel like starting his new workout anyway. "Oh bummer" Pete said slurping back his 3rd cup-o-noodles of the morning, " I was really looking forward to getting rid of this gut. Well maybe some other time" "Yeah..." Lex said vaguely, " some other time." Neither of them wanted to see each other since Lex was hiding his missing tooth and Pete didn't want to start exercising so they ended the conversation there and didn't see each other for nearly 3 weeks.
Lex had nothing to do with his time. With him wanting to avoid all of his friends because of his tooth and not having a car to go anywhere Lex just sat around the house all day. He didn't want to go the gym since his friends would all be there or WORSE his football buds since he got them all free passes to the gym. He tried to keep busy for the first few days. Sketching random things, playing video games, throwing the ball for his two dogs, but after a few hours everything got boring and Lex would always end up joining his brother on the couch eating whatever goodies the housekeeper brought Dan that day to make him feel better. This gluttonous routine continued for the next 2 weeks until Dan's girlfriend got back from her work conference and was going to make a surprise visit.
"Dan get off the phone! It's been like 3 hours and I really want to order a pizza." Lex shouted to his brother in the living room. Dan had been talking to his girlfriend for almost 4 hours and Lex was really getting sick of it. " We don't have anything left in the fridge and I'm starving. Cant you call Jenna back on your cell, at least yours wor....." Lex trailed off as he saw Dan's horror stricken face. "What's wrong," Lex asked, "Jenna finally gunna dump your ***?"
"No. Dan replied, she's on her way over here..."
Lex looked puzzled at the statement. "Don't you want to see your girlfriend? Oh... is it because of that thing you got going there..." Lex said as he points at his brothers soft belly. "Shut it Lex! Its not like you're the picture of health these days either." Dan said as he poked his little brothers softened abs. "Pff this?" Lex remarks as he pats his stomach. "This will be firmed up with one week at the gym. That," Lex snickered grabbing a little paunch of fat hanging off his brothers lap, "is a goner."
"Oh God I know! I can't even get my basketball shorts to fit right, let alone actually close the clasp on any of my jeans. What am I going to do!! She will be here any minute." Lex hadn't given the whole Pete incident much thought since he made that phone call a few weeks ago, but all this talk about weight gain started to get Lex going. He could feel tingling all over his body and watching his brothers flab jiggle as he got off the couch sent a chill threw Lex's spine. "Okay," Lex said as he gave his brother the crutches, "so first you should get up stairs, shower as best you can, and shave that beard you got there... I'm not sure but I think theirs still a piece of chocolate stuck in there."
"Fine Lex, but taking a shower wont hide the fact I gained 20 pounds!"
"YOU GAINED 20 POUNDS!?! IN 2 WEEKS!?! Jeeze... 1 step at a time Dan...1 step at a time."
Dan hobbled away to get ready and Lex began wondering about his own growing belly. "Its not that bad," he said grabbing the small cluster of fat underneath his bellybutton button and giving it a shake, "Nothing a few runs and some crunches won't cure. " But in the back of his mind Lex wasn't feeling his normal drive to workout. Instead he was rather enjoying his gym free lifestyle. He usually got pumped right before a workout but the idea of starting to workout again only made him want to relax and eat more. He reached for the last king sized snicker bar on the table and began rubbing one out. "Okay so the diet starts tomorrow!"
