Chapter 1

Trevor glanced down at his watch as he stepped out of his silver Nissan Sentra into the crowded parking lot, which was filled with new, freshly painted compact cars that reminded him of the primary color sets he used in yesterday's art lesson. In a school of young teachers who were either starving artists or trying too hard to stay in their college shape with their unripe banana bodies and smooth faces, Trevor definitely was one of the odd ones out at thirty years old.

07:14, just in time to make it to the office printer before one of the new teachers laid claim.

*****

The breakroom was empty, save for Daniella, the school's office secretary, who was perched on one of the stools at the counter, a box of doughnuts from the local bakery on the counter in front of her. She didn't notice him at first, her eyes closed as she savored a bite of a raised glaze doughnut.

He offered her another, his eyes twinkling with mischief as he noticed her slightly rounded belly.

"You're going to make me fat," she giggled, as she took the doughnut from him and placed it on a napkin, “I’m Daniella, the office secretary… or the resident doughnut receptacle if you hadn’t noticed.”

He chuckled and couldn't help but notice how her blouse pulled tight against her belly, as she enjoyed her treat.

"You might as well have a third then!" he urged, a glint of desire in his eyes.

Daniella raised an eyebrow, a smirk on her lips as she reached for the third doughnut. "Are you trying to get me in trouble with the school nurse?" she asked playfully, as she bit into the sugary confection.

"Maybe," Trevor replied, his gaze lingering on her belly as it swelled slightly with each bite. He felt a stirring in his loins as he imagined her belly growing larger, fuller, and softer.

"Well, I suppose I can't resist," Daniella said, her cheeks flushed with a mix of sugar and pleasure. "But I'll have to run an extra mile tonight to make up for it."

"I'd be happy to join you," Trevor said, a sly smile on his lips.

Daniella's eyes widened with surprise. She couldn't deny the excitement that was building inside her, the prospect of spending more time with the handsome new teacher being the last thing she thought was going to happen on his first day.

"Really?" she asked, trying to hide the enthusiasm in her voice. "And here I was thinking you were trying to fatten me up."

Trevor feigned obliviousness and innocence, asking why he would go for a run then.

"Oh, I don't know, maybe to help hide the fact it was your insistence for all these extra calories?" Daniella replied, patting her slight belly with a smile.

Trevor couldn't help but stare at her belly as it hardly yielded under her touch. "Well, I suppose I can't argue with that."

Daniella giggled, feeling a rush of warmth in her cheeks. She had never had a man look at her with such desire before, let alone a man as handsome as Trevor.

"I'm glad you're enjoying yourself," Trevor said, as he took another bite of his doughnut. "But don't forget about our run tonight."

Trevor said with a wink as he grabbed another doughnut from the box. "One for the road." He said, as he hurried out of the break room, not having time for his copies.

As he hurried down the hallway to his classroom, Trevor couldn't shake the image of Daniella's belly from his mind. It was a perfect round curve, so soft and inviting. He felt a growing desire to touch it, to feel it grow even larger under his hands.

On his way to his classroom, he stopped by the office and left the doughnut at her desk with a note that said “one for the road? We’re running anyway!” drawn with a winky face. He couldn't help but smile as he thought about the look on her face when she saw it.

The rest of the day passed in a blur. Trevor found himself thinking about nothing but Daniella and her belly. He couldn't concentrate on his lessons, couldn’t focus anything but the thought of her soft curves.

He felt his desire growing, his heart racing. As the clock struck lunchtime, he gathered his things and headed for the cafeteria, his mind set on seeing her again.

“A brownie is as good a reason as any, right?” he said to himself.

Daniella happily accepted the brownie and asked when and where they’re running. Trevor hesitated for a moment, surprised by her question, before stammering out a response about meeting at the school track after school let out. She smiled at him and thanked him for the brownie, her eyes shining with mischief at the prospect of spending more time with him and his treats.

As Trevor walked back to his classroom, he couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation building in his chest. He had never felt this way before about anyone this fast, and it was both thrilling and terrifying at the same time.

The rest of the day passed in a blur, and before Trevor knew it, he was standing at the school track, watching as Daniella approached.
