***CHAPTER FIVE***
***HALLOWEEN SETUP***
***OCTOBER 18TH***
Eric had been true to his word in bringing all of the decorations over the next day. A semi- plump Vanessa was seemingly attached to his hip with Glenn lagging behind completing their trio.
Paige gathered everyone together. "Thank you so much for coming you guys. As a thanks for all of the help, I have already put an order in for pizzas, soda, cheesy bread, breadsticks and even boneless chicken wings that'll be here in less than an hour!"
"That's really nice and I really do appreciate it, but did you order any salad by chance Paige? I started up a new diet a few weeks ago and I'm trying to watch what I eat..." Vanessa stated with a tinge of pride.
Vanessa failed to notice Eric's eye roll at her statement.
"Umm... No... I'm sorry I didn't..." Paige responded slightly embarassed.
"It's okay, I think there's a place nearby that has some healthy options..." She said pulling up a delivery app on her phone.
Everybody set about getting to work, cleaning the massive mansion top to bottom which was going to take the majority of the Monday afternoon, then they could focus on setting up the decorations for the interior and exterior of the house the upcoming Saturday.
Any time Paige would try and get close to her longtime crush, Vanessa would be there to "innocently" interject with a bit of a secretive sideways glare, while at the same time Glenn would be constantly offering out help to Paige as she struggled to tidy up the kitchen on her own, with the other girls begrudgingly tackling different parts of the house.
Paige had chosen to wear one of the largest pairs of pyjama pants she had however they were anything but spacious these days. They were some well worn, faded and snug 3X all black "Halloween" printed pyjama pants complete with the shape's signature mask and the familiar carved pumpkin pattern printed upon their surface, skewed by having to contain her spacious bottom half. They fit, but the thin material was clearly being sucked into her impressively deep asscrack causing some of the pattern to vanish into the unknown space between her twin globes. Above the waist she had donned a black low cut tank top that gave a healthy view at her creamy cleavage while also wrapping tightly around her massive spare tire and her ultra thick upper arms. She was still hoping to attract Eric at some point. So far she had caught him looking a few times, but she didn't notice any underlying feeling behind his glances.
She just wanted so badly to finally have sex, and Eric was just so utterly sexy... She wondered what he was packing between his powerfully muscular legs...
But even more importantly, she wondered what sex would be like just in general. She had heard many of the steamy details from Jae over the years but she wanted to experience it for herself and what better person to experience it with than Eric? They had been inseparable before he had met that "miss perfect", then slowly but surely Vanessa had required nearly every second of his day. The only thing that probably saved their friendship being that they had alot of the same AP classes in high school and they'd sit next to each other whenever they could.
Her memory was interrupted by a sharp pain emanating from her injured knee as she swept causing her to stop her cleaning duties, and gently massage her knee.
"Damn Twinkies and damn knee... If it weren't for you, Eric may have actually been mine back then..." She whispered quietly to herself.
As if Eric's ears were burning, he entered the kitchen looking for a drink and zeroed in on Paige who was facing away from him, slightly bent over and rubbing at her knee causing her bloated posterior to stretch the limits of her pyjama pants to their near limits. She had been sweeping the floor in front of the fridge before her knee had stopped her.
"Perfect." Eric thought quietly to himself as he approached her from behind, his eyes focusing intently upon her fleshy derriere.
"Hey Paige. How are things going in here?" Eric asked placing a hand gently upon one of Paige's soft, pulpy love handles, motioning that he wanted to open the fridge.
"Oh umm... Great! I'm slowly but surely making progress in here, but my knee is starting to lock up..."
Eric had grabbed a Sprite and cracked it open, taking a long drink from it. "Well... Let me take a look." Eric said kneeling down in front of his rotund friend. He quickly began massaging her knee and above it, seeming to move ever higher towards her inner thigh. He seemed almost hypnotized by it.
Paige was hoping he couldn't detect how turned on she was getting just from his simple touch.
Neither one of them noticed the large brown eyes sneakily peeping at them from the far side of the massive kitchen, then form into a menacing glare.
"Is it feeling better?" Eric asked with a smile as his eyes met hers.
"Yeah... It really is..." Paige said returning the smile.
"So... Do you need any help?" Glenn asked for what seemed like the fiftieth time that day.
Eric immediately shot up from his kneeling position on the floor and nervously cleared his throat. "Umm... Well it looks like you have it all handled in here... Go ahead and give me a holler if you need any more help!" He said nervously shuffling towards the exit of the kitchen past his younger brother.
Paige sighed with a bit of annoyance. Typical for Glenn to come in at the worst possible time...
Glenn was being kind, but he was also drinking in all of Paige's rotund form any chance he got as she carried out multiple tasks wiping down the counter tops, cleaning out the sink, picking up random pieces of trash off the floor and sweeping up. Glenn couldn't help but feel himself get hard every time he saw her bend over to pick something up. Then suddenly the doorbell rang.
"Oh that must be the food!"
"Oh great! You want me to go get it?" Glenn offered.
"No... No... I think I'm good. Thank you though!" Paige said trying to be as polite as possible.
She tried to get back up to a standing position when suddenly...
*Rrrrrriiiiiiipppp*
Paige stopped dead in her tracks as she felt a gust of cold air dance across her bare blubbery ass cheeks.
Glenn's Jaw was practically on the floor as he nearly messed in his boxers right then and there at the wonderful sight.
Paige franticaly hurried up to her bedroom, her cheeks flushed from embarassment and short of breathe from the arduous task of hefting her bulk upstairs.
Eric and Vanessa only caught a glimpse as the raven haired girl quickly waddled past them, sobbing gently while trying to cover a basketball sized hole that hovered over her jiggly rear end. It was impossible to hide especially as she lumbered up the steps.
The doorbell rang again...
"I'll go get it." Glenn offered.
"Okay, thanks bro. I'm going to go check on Paige, make sure she's okay..." Eric said towards his girlfriend, giving her a gentle kiss on the cheek.
"Well maybe you should let me check in on her first. It's kind of a girl to girl thing Y'know?" Vanessa said raising a well styled eyebrow at her boyfriend.
Eric sighed and gently nodded. "Well maybe you're right..."
Glenn hurried back with the food in his arms. "Well maybe you should bring her one of these. It might help cheer her up."
"Thanks Glenn. I think you're right!" Vanessa quickly made it to Paige's room and gently knocked upon the door.
"Go away..." A melodic but faltering voice sounded out.
"Hey Paige, it's Vanessa... I just... wanted to make sure you were alright... Can I come in?"
"Umm... Yeah just hold on for a sec..." Vanessa could hear heavy shuffling along with an audible tear of fabric coming from inside Paige's bedroom followed closely with a creaking of her bed frame. "Come in..." Paige sniffled.
Vanessa slowly opened the door to see Paige laying in her bed, the blankets covering her all the way up to her neck with her pyjama pants laying in tatters next to the bedside among the many other piles of dirty clothes taking up space on her floor.
Her room reeked of old sour sweat, grease and a kind of fruity smell. It took everything in Vanessa to not fan or plug her nose.
Vanessa placed the hot pizza box on Paige's blanketed legs. "Thought you might want some..." Vanessa offered.
Paige sniffled some more. "Thanks... But I don't think I do... I've turned into a fat fucking tub of lard thanks to this kind of food..."
"Are you doing alright?" Vanessa asked, placing a dainty hand upon the girl's fleshy back trying to console her.
"Yeah... Just really embarassed... I mean not only did you see it, but Glenn and your boyfriend saw everything... Ugh... He must be disgusted by the sight of me..."
"Oh no... Eric could never be disgusted by you... He loves you for who you are... his best friend." Vanessa offered making sure to put a bit of extra emphasis on the last two words.
"Please... Anybody would be disgusted by the sight of me. I've become a fucking whale! That settles it, I've come to the conclusion that beginning today I'm going to start up a diet, I'm going to take better care of my appearance and no matter how much pain I have to endure, I will start exercising again to shed some of this blubber!"
"WHAT SO YOU CAN STEAL ERIC AWAY FROM ME?!?" Vanessa suddenly snapped, her demeanor suddenly shifting from caring to accusing. Her eyes seemed to glow a deep violet hue for a few seconds and then fade back to their signature brown.
"Wh-what are you talking about Vane..."
"Don't play dumb with me! I know you have the hots for Eric. I could tell from the day I met you. I see the way you two look at each other!"
Before Paige could say anything more, Vanessa produced a familiar looking wooden box.
"Why do you have it??" Paige asked, her voice trembling.
Vanessa's grimace turned to a grin of sinister intentions. "You know how long it took me to track this down? And then worse yet, plant it in your grandparent's attic without you or your friends being none the wiser?"
"Why??? How??" Paige emphatically cried out.
Vanessa's sadistic smirk grew even larger. "Well since you won't remember any of this in a few short minutes I'll tell you... I've wanted Eric ever since I first laid eyes on him, but you have always been in the way. I tried everything, ranging from simply trying to tempt him away from you, using supposedly rare wishing stones, to making special herbal remedies for love potions. None of it worked until I found an old Ouija board hidden beneath the floorboards of my room. It was whispering to me... calling out my name..."
"One night many years ago while in my bedroom upon first using it, a demon of sorts appeared after I begged and pleaded to have Eric all to myself to anyone who would listen."
The demon told me in an upsettingly vague fashion that there was a special orb being guarded by a "Troll". With it, I could cause anyone who touches it to become what they most fear and hate in life. That each time someone touched it, they'd fall deeper and deeper into what they despise with reality morphing around the subject, while also affecting the people around them. It took me nearly eight years to find the damn orb. I finally found it located beneath the "Fremont Troll" just here in Seattle. It too whispered to me as if fate was on my side. So far it appears as though my plan has mostly been successful minus a few speed bumps..." She said motioning to her softened form. "With your original and now alternate self having a love for an athletic lifestyle, I flipped your life on it's lid sort of speak turning you into some fat assed, slobby goth nerd. All it took was a few drops of blood used to sign a contract with the demon to make it work..."
"This is bat-shit insane..." Paige uttered. But as she spoke those words, her memories of her past life came rushing back like a flood.
"I had lost hope for awhile, thinking that Eric would never leave you, even as you grew fatter and more disgusting but everybody has their limits..."
"You don't have to do this..." I'll leave you and Eric alone I promise!" Paige pleaded.
"Oh but I must! And now that I've shown you how much your life has fallen, it is time for you to touch the orb one last time..." She said opening the box to display the orb in all of it's wicked beauty.
"No... WAIT!!!" Paige screamed out, but the orb had already caught her attention... It was drawing her in to it's depths. She was fighting it with every fiber of her being, but her hand inched closer and closer...
And then her fingers made contact...
Paige was dizzy for a moment, overcome by a pleasurable buzz and a taste of delicious pizza filling her mouth.
"I can't believe you let that bitch Vanessa talk you into having the party here... You just agreed because you have the hots for Eric don't you??!" Abbey responded.
"Umm... Well... I..."
"It's because she brought pizza for all of us... Isn't it?"
Paige shifted her massive 346 pound body in her spot on the couch as Vanessa, Eric and Glenn cleaned the house.
Paige didn't want to admit it, but Abbey was right on both accounts... "Ummm... Yeah... I guess you're right..."
Abbey chuckled a bit. "Well I guess Shayla will be happy that thanks to you, I have this highly fattening pizza to chow down on, so it's not all bad." Abbey said shifting her bloated 232 pound body forward.
"Yeah... This pizza is pretty *chomp* good. I'd say it's worth it." Amanda said leaning her 302 pound body forward to grab another slice.
Abbey's nose twitched for a moment.
"Jesus Paige... When was the last time you took a shower?!" She whispered towards her friend.
Paige scratched her bare belly where her shirt had ridden up near her cavernous navel. "Umm... Four days ago I think?"
"Well... I think it's time to take one..." Abbey added in a serious tone.
At that moment, Jae waddled her 278 pound body into the room after another friend with benefits just exited the house after an hour long session. She readily grabbed a slice, and planted her wide rump into the far end of the massive sectional couch.
"Jesus Jae! Who was that?! I swear it's like Grand Central Station around here with all the guys going in and out of this place."
"That was Randy. He plays Football at U.W." Jae said with a smirk.
"Well at least someone is getting some..." Paige added.
As the four girls devoured the pizza before them, the trio consisting of Eric, a slightly chubby Vanessa and Glenn entered the living room where the girls were seated.
"Well... I think that's enough for today, but we'll be back tomorrow to do some more cleaning..." Eric said wiping his hands on his jeans.
"Yeah... Thanks again for letting us host my annual Halloween party here. It should be the biggest one yet!" Vanessa giggled with glee.
"Anytime..." Paige said, mainly focusing her gaze upon Eric's muscled form.
"Well... We'll see you guys tomorrow!" Vanessa replied in her signature bubbly tone, no one catching the flash of violet that filled her irises for only a second.
"Bye..." The girls nearly unanimously answered in a lazy fashion.
"I don't know why you put up with that bitch... You know all she does is laugh behind our backs..." Amanda sighed.
"Yeah... But at least we still get to see Eric..." Paige added while taking another healthy bite of pie.
"And yet you know for a fact that Eric would never go out with girls like us... Look at who he's dating! I mean, sure she's significantly heavier than when they first started going out in high school but C'mon... It's Vanessa Kreuger... Miss Prom Queen..."
Paige smirked with a sullen tinge. "Well Halloween is coming up, and anything can happen on Halloween..."
