Chapter 2 - just this one

Kelli awoke surrounded in wrappers from her binge the night before. She picked up her mess and began getting her clothes ready for work. Kelli was an LNA at a local hospital, and her morning routine was very simple. She rarely wore a lot of makeup never being too concerned with impressing anyone. She slinked into her bathroom and started her shower. Waiting for the water to warm sufficiently, she examined herself in the mirror and huffed.
"What am I doing to myself?" she thought grabbing her flabby stomach. Her panties dug into her hips and as she peeled them out from between her cheeks, noticing thick red marks from where they had been resting. Hopping into her shower she felt the warm water rush over her body. It felt so good as it poured over her and she rubbed her hands together getting the chocolate out of her fingernails from the night before. She delicately ran her hands through her long brown hair and lathered her body with soap, gently squeezing her new found love handles. "Hmmf" she muttered to herself, remembering how slim she had been only a few months ago. She tried to forget the situation and told herself that she still looked hot and she was still slim. She was confused slightly about what she was doing to her body and what she thought was normal
Turning off the water and climbing out of the shower she went about the rest of her morning routine naked, applying makeup and drying her hair. She went to her dresser to find some undergarments for work. She usually wore larger underwear to cover her behind all the way and for comfort under her scrubs, but her favorite pair of purple panties seemed to be fitting quite snug lately. She pulled them up hesitantly as they creaked slightly around her thighs. "I can't keep eating like this" she thought, "soon I won't fit into anything!" Pulling them fully around her jiggling behind she reached for her pants, which much to her dismay went on just as slowly as her underwear. There was some stretch to them, however they seemed to be sticking the further she got them up her legs. Her butt had become too large for a couple pairs of her shorts, but these scrubs were always loose fitting and the waistband was extremely tight when fitting around the largest part of her behind. Her top fit okay but she noticed that where her once flat stomach was unnoticeable, sat a slight pooch of a belly clearly visible from the front and side. Frowning at herself in the mirror she grabbed her purse and left for work.
Driving into work her belly rumbled alerting her to it's now insatiable hunger for food. She found herself getting excited from this feeling, as she was accustomed to lately. "No, I need to slow down we can't keep doing this, I'm going to be as big as a house!" She slapped her stomach as if it could hear her. "I am hungry though, and I need to eat breakfast," she justified, "I'm terrible at work when I'm hungry." She squeezed one of her thick thighs as she spoke aloud, "You are hungry for more, aren't you?" Sighing to herself she pulled into a McDonalds. "Only a little breakfast, just enough to stop this rumbling" she thought patting her stomach again. At the drive through she ordered a couple mcgriddles, "That should be good, right?" Only a few more, "I'm sorry, can I get two sausage mcmuffins?" She said, questioning her own judgment.
After her third sandwich parked outside the Mcdonalds She found herself wondering if she should have gotten more. She was already full but she still wanted to stuff herself more. She shifted her legs as she sat in her car looking left and right as if someone was watching. "Only a few more," she thought as she drove back around.
Arriving at work she walked slowly towards the reception desk. Grabbing her name tag and slippers she worked her way towards the elevator towards her floor, her stomach stuffed. "Hey Stefan," she called waving at her crush. He worked a few floors below hers and often said hello and flirted with her, but not today. She made a face as she walked away from his unresponsive figure. "Must be in a bad mood today," she thought climbing into the elevator. As the elevator moved upwards she rubbed her belly lightly sighing and remembering the night before. She wanted to forget her feelings but found it extremely hard considering their effect on her eating habits.
Her day at work went as usual welcoming patients in and taking various blood pressures and temperatures as needed. She couldn't wait to get off work and get home to her comfortable bed again to sleep her body. She had been thinking all day about her past month, and her unexplained behavior. It all felt so good to her in the moment, but deep inside she knew that her friends and society disagreed with women who were overweight, and she was well on her way.
Cruising home at around four in the afternoon, she noticed a new Fredrick's' Pastries, and fighting her better judgment she decided to stop. Sitting in her car she debated to go inside, "I need to stop eating... but a few sweets wouldn't set me way back... right?" she thought. "Okay I'll go in but only a few snacks for tomorrow, no binging tonight!"
Resting in her bed, with Boston crème filling spilling down her chin, she had heavy breaths. She clutched her stuffed belly with her left hand slowly feeding herself another cupcake with her other moaning softly with pleasure. The frosting was smooth and sweet tasting as she licked her lips clean from the sugary substance. She had spent over forty dollars on desserts which were now gone. Lying in her panties in a food coma, she thought about what her boyfriend Eli would say to her when he got back from americorps. She hadn't seen him in over six months except for a few pictures here and there in letters he wrote her. "What will he say?" she thought, "When he finds out I've gained so much weight and love eating so much?" She sat with her hands on her stomach dreaming about eating more. Pushing another cupcake into her mouth she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
