Cakes and Computers

Chapter 1

I had always been a dreamer.

But perhaps not in the way you're thinking. While my mind was goal oriented, I often found it wandering to fantasies that were well... more dirty than clean.

I had spent years ashamed of my body, being nearly 600lbs I was often told nobody would want me. And I believed it for a while, that was until I started to come across websites full of people attracted to bodies just like mine. Worshipping the hanging bellies, doughy rolls and jiggly asses. What once was an insecurity I never expected to overcome, suddenly became my greatest turn on. The way people online complimented me with ever lb gained, every new crevice and roll. It was intoxicating.

I began to chat more openly with people, unexpectedly even coming across people who lived in my city who shared the very love of my large body as I did. Every comment, every compliment, every encouraging word seemed to turn me on and push me to eat more and get even bigger and sexier.

What I didn't expect was my laptop to stop working one day, which limited to me my phone which admittedly was fine. But I enjoyed chatting on my laptop and scrolling on my phone, so when my friend suggested someone she knew who could come to my house and fix it for me, I jumped at the chance. At nearly 600lbs, getting out of the house was becoming more difficult. I barely fit into cars, even doorways tended to be too small. So I called him immediately.

"Hi, I'm Elena. I got your number from Lacey, she said you do home repairs?" I queried, my breathing heavy from the excess weight my body carried. "Oh, yes! She messaged me. I'm actually available right now if that suits you?" His voice chipper. "Perfect!" I replied, providing him with the address. "Great, I'll see you in about 10 minutes."

I decided to quickly make myself look at least a bit more presentable, my current state of pyjamas stained with ice cream from my morning binge seeming not quite right. My long hair was brushed, a hint of makeup greeted my face so I looked more vibrant. I didn't need to put on a show, after all I just wanted to look a little put together rather than a slob who sits on her couch and eats all day. Though that is what I am...

I slipped into a pair of my favourite lounge shorts and a tank top, they may be a little short but I wasn't known for dressing conservatively...

A couple of minutes later there was a knock at the door, I waddled through my spacious living room and opened the door. "Hi! Thank you for coming." My smile was friendly. "Not a problem, so can you explain to me a bit more what happened?" He questioned, I began to explain as I led him to the living room where my laptop was sitting on my glass coffee table.

"-so that's about it. If it isn't fixable I get it, but I figured I may as well try." I chuckled, hoping my beloved laptop would be salvageable. He opened my laptop and began to inspect it, as I was useless with technology I decided to put my better skills to use. "Would you like some water, tea, coffee, coke? Anything?" I asked, my voice sweet. "I'd love a coffee, thanks." He smiled, eyes lingering for a second.

I brushed it off and stood up, walking into my kitchen. I loved my kitchen, not just because it housed all my treats, but how the natural light was always streaming in. I loved how it always smelt like chocolate chip cookies somehow, even when I didn't have any! As I boiled the jug, i got my first actual look at him. Something about this man struck me as strangely familiar, but I couldn't place it at all. As I poured the water into the cup, I realised he was stealing glances at me. Almost as if he was trying to piece something together.
