Eric sat down on his sofa, shoving forkfuls of lasagne into his mouth. In 5 minutes he finished the entire pan, a serving that could easily fill three people.
"Man, what has gotten into me?" He rubbed his stomach as it gurgled. Looking down, he realised just how distended it was. A small globe, about the same size as half a basketball pushed against his shirt. Eric pulled it up to find a smooth dome of flesh where his flat abs used to be. He slid the elastic waistband of his sweats down and prodded his new belly.
"I'm just a little bloated is all." To his surprise, Eric felt even hungrier than before.
"Shit. Well, they did say an increased appetite," he reasoned as he went back to the fridge. Examining its contents once more, he found a styrophome box. Opening it, he found some leftover refried beans from the Mexican he had two nights ago. He wasn't overly excited at the prospect of eating them just like that, but nothing else was readily available.
Eric began to debate whether he should just deal or go out and get something, when a wave of hunger hit him.
"That does it then." He grabbed a spoon and a beer and sat back on the sofa. Flicking on the t.v. set to ESPN, he dug into his meal.
"This place is gonna stink to night," he chuckled as he thought about what beans usually did to him. Pausing only to drink, Eric quickly devoured the beans. Throwing his spoon into the container he leaned back with his beer, intent on enjoying the game now that his hunger was satiated. He rubbed his belly again, and realised it was even bigger than before.
"I am a pig," he said to himself as he rubbed his gut. A pressure began to build up in his stomach. Patting it, he felt the pressure increase. Wondering if this should cause any alarm, his anxiety disappeared as he belched, loud and long.
"Well, I guess I should be happy it's coming from this end." He chuckled. Another rumbling and Eric felt the pressure return. This time however, he lifted one leg slightly and cut the cheese.
"Spoke too soon, heh."
With his release however, his body began to tingle...
