Chapter 1 - Homecoming

Abbie raced down the stairs the moment she heard Katy’s car pulling up on the driveway. Now that her sister was living so far away, Abbie hadn’t seen her since her high school graduation at the start of the summer. But as much as she loved her sister, there was one thing she hoped for more than anything else: that she had brought her sexy boyfriend Gaz with her.

Squeals of delight sounded from Abbie’s mother as she opened the door and embraced the daughter who ran into her arms. Abbie could already tell that her hopes had been realised as she spotted their father standing before Katy, his hands on his hips, staring defensively over her shoulder at the boyfriend who must have been trotting along behind.

Now racing towards her, Katy wrapped Abbie in a big hug, telling her how excited she was that Abbie was off to college that weekend, and that they simply had to come down and see her before she left. Abbie smiled, but watched keenly towards the threshold of the door as the shadow of the unseen man stepped ever closer towards it.

Darkening the hallway as his giant frame filled the doorway, Gaz stepped into view. The sight of him made Abbie’s breath catch in her chest. The guy was even fatter than he had been the last time she’d seen him!

“Congratulations on getting into our old college,” Gaz smiled, heading over to Abbie and shaking her hand. The heat emanating from his giant, sweaty palms was unreal. The man was an enormous furnace, fuelled by an obvious abundance of excess calories. His kind eyes smiled behind even puffier cheeks, and Abbie noted with interest just how swollen with fat the man’s neck had now become. “I know you’ll have just as much fun there as we did,” he nodded towards Katy.

“Thanks,” Abbie mumbled, trying to suppress her immediate arousal. Behind Gaz’s back, she could see her father shaking his head in disapproval, obviously noticing, just like the rest of them, how much heavier Gaz was looking after the summer.

Katy took her large boyfriend’s hand and led him down towards the kitchen, just as she had the first time she had brought him home during her first summer from college. Back then, they’d all thought how well Katy had done for herself, bagging such an athlete on a football scholarship. Gaz had been tall and broad, muscular and handsome. Their father had taken to him right away, even hosting a large barbecue with all the neighbors before he left. Finally, he had another real man around the house to discuss all the things he loved: cars, beer and football; topics his two daughters had very little interest in. It was only a year or so after that when his opinion started to change. Gaz’s athletic frame had bloated up by the following summer as he stacked on weight to play a different position on the field. Abbie remembered the playful jibes her father made about Gaz’s rounded stomach, assuming, just like the rest of them, that it was merely a temporary issue whilst Gaz trained himself up. However, as the holidays came around, Gaz returned only looking fatter again. By the spring, he’d been dropped from football altogether, settling into a cozy, lazy lifestyle that Abbie’s father just could not tolerate from a man who claimed to love his daughter so much.

Since then, his opinion of Gaz had been set for life.
