"And in the weather forecast, we can expect a freezing night with some snow, with lows of up to minus 18 degrees. And sources say that this trend could last for possibly the entire month..."
"Oh, you have to be fucking kidding me!" Nina spoke, practically snarling at the pretty weather forecaster on the TV. "A whole month of this every night? I'll be dead before Easter!"
Sitting next to her, Brian tried not to snigger at the sight of his long time girlfriend as she vented her rage, huddled up in a ball on the other side of the couch and peering through the layers of cloth she wore like a cute, but very angry kitten.
Ordinarily, Nina was one of the nicest, most agreeable people you could ever meet. There was very little that could get her riled up or really angry. But there was one thing she despised over everything else, which she never failed to complain about. The cold.
Every time winter came around and the temperature began to drop, Nina would do everything in her power to stay warm. Currently, she was wearing two sets of pyjamas, slippers and a beanie hat, and was wrapped in a blanket. She had even grown out her hair longer in order to make a natural scarf. But despite all this, she could still feel the chill on her body. Winter nights were mostly spent on the couch, huddled up or cuddled next to Brian, trying to restrict her body movements so as not to feel the cold air around her.
Their apartment's heating wasn't much help either. Thanks to their frugal budget, they could only afford to put the heat on for a few hours every day, and it wasn't quite as warm as they would have wanted. Brian himself wasn't too fazed by the cold, he was used to it as part of his job at a butchers.
Nina got to her feet, wrapping the blanket tightly around her, and walked towards their bedroom.
"Going to bed already?" Brian asked, noting that it was only 9:30.
"There's no point sitting in here waiting to become an ice cube. I'll get cosy in bed."
She looked back at him. "Are you gonna join me?"
"In a bit." He replied, indicating he was watching the start of another crime drama on Five. "Do you want me to make some tea?"
"Oh yes, please." She motioned to walk, but then stop and looked at him with a sly glance. "Could you please make it.... my favourite?
The tone in her voice was unmistakable. She didn't want just any hot drink, she wanted what they called the 'Special Blend'. And that meant two things. One, it was going to be REALLY cold tonight, and two, she had no intention of actually sleeping.
"Sure thing, love." He replied with mock innocence. Grinning, Nina practically skipped into their room.
Brian decided to make her wait for a bit, just to increase the tension and tease her a little. After confirming that his TV show was a repeat, he switched it off and headed for their tiny kitchen. The kettle was switched on, and he brought out the matching his and hers mugs she had bought him for a present. By the time the water was boiled, he had everything prepared.
In his blue mug, he put in one PG Tips bag, a splash of milk, and three sugars. In Nina's pink mug, he poured in three spoonfuls of tea grounds from a plastic container. It smelt of herbs, spices and various other strange ingredients Nina had put in that he probably wouldn't recognise. After all, this tea had a special purpose.
A year ago, Nina had been searching the web, looking for recipes for teas and coffee, and generally trying to find anything that could satisfy her need to stay warm even in the coldest conditions. Purely by random, she had found a strange website.
It had been written in a strange ancient language, something similar to Spanish or Portuguese. After wrangling the text through Babelfish, Nina had discovered a recipe for a tea which, the website claimed, would keep her 'eternally warm as the sun for one night'. Nina had wasted no time in gathering the odd ingredients needed and had made a batch of the tea that very night.
As it turned out, drinking it had resulted in some very unexpected results. And yet Nina would still ask for it on the coldest of nights when she could not stand the drop in temperature.
After mixing the tea grounds with the hot water, Brian took the mug in his hands and stared at the greenish brown liquid. Concentrating intently, he incanted some words, speaking in a foreign language. This was what gave the tea its power, as silly as it sounded. Both he and Nina had chanted it so many times since finding the recipe, they knew it by heart.
"Pela bênção do Sun, da lua, e da suficiência do céu este corpo com o calor do Sun De modo que esta alma possa durar com o inverno amargo".
For a slight instant, the tea took on a bright yellow glow, before it faded away. Satisfied, Brian grabbed both mugs and made his way to the bedroom.
Nina was waiting for him in their bed, wrapped up tight in the duvet. She stared at the mugs in his hand with eager eyes. "Ooh yes, come to mama.."
"Just a moment." Brian spoke, as he put the mugs on a dressed and slowly stripped his clothes off. Nina frowned with impatience, and tossed the old shirt and boxers he slept in towards him.
Finally ready, Brian sat on the bed and handed Nina her mug. Before he could even climb under the covers, Nina was downing her tea, gulping it down with great gusto. The entire drink vanished in just four seconds. Nina lay back and gave a satisfied sigh.
"You drank all of it?" Brian spoke, amazed and a little worried. Normally Nina only drunk half the stuff for the desired effect.
"In case you haven't noticed, it is THAT cold." Nina replied, her breath frosting as she spoke. "Besides, I've always wondered what double the dose is like.."
She pulled her covers away from her body, revealing that she wore two sets of pyjamas, a t-shirt and stretchy bottoms set under a thicker button-up top and baggy bottoms. She pulled up her tops, revealing her slight potbelly.
"Ready?" She said quietly, but with excitement in her voice. "Here we go.."
Both of them stared at Nina's belly in silence. Nothing happened for a few seconds. Then Nina felt it. A feeling of fullness in her gut, as if she had gorged on food for a long period of time. It was slightly painful, but at the same time somewhat enjoyable as well. She placed her hands on her stomach, ready and waiting.
And then, slowly but steadily, her belly began to swell.
It started slowly, filling out into a sizeable potbelly but then it reached a size equal to a pregnant bally in it's first few months, and kept going. The elastic waistband of her pyjama bottoms was pulled tight along the apex of her belly, but slowly began to slide down the soft curve.
Nina watched her belly with rapt fascination, running her hands around her soft skin. If she pressed them in gently, the flesh would yield, as if she was filling up with water or gelatine. She could also feel how warm her belly was getting. Heat that had not been there before now radiated from within it, like a hot water bottle.
Nina could still feel that sensation of uncomfortable fullness within her, and she rubbed her swelling belly a little more quickly to ease the discomfort. She gave a few small moans, enough to get Brian's attention. She made a gesture towards her belly with her eyes.
Brian got the message immediately. He gently put his hands on her belly, which was now large enough to make Nina appear nine months pregnant with twins, and began to gently massage her. At the touch of his fingers against her skin, Nina cooed in delight.
Brian’s hands continued to roam around her growing stomach, savouring the feel of her warming skin as it stretched underneath his palm and the way it bulged in his hands whenever he gently squeezed. Her belly was warmer now, it felt as if he was pressing against a radiator working at full power. A very soft, cute, pliable girl shaped radiator.
Nina gave a small gasp of surprise and looked down, causing Brian to follow her gaze. He was glad he did, because now she was growing in other places.
Her breasts, formerly nicely sized C-cups hidden under the folds of her loose clothing, were swelling up, pushing against the fabric of her tops and drawing them closer against her burgeoning curves.
And lower down, her baggy bottoms were beginning to tighten around her legs, as her hips and thighs grew wider, and her butt plumped up. Nina moved her hands, one heading upwards to press into her right boob, while the other stroked her thighs.
The heat of her skin was rising to match her belly as she expanded. A contented sigh left her mouth as the heat from her swelling form began to warm the rest of her body. Brian watched with enraptured eyes, content to simply take in the sight of his girl growing bigger and rounder.
It was hard to put into words why they found this transformation so attractive and, they would shyly admit, arousing. Like cheesy old B-Movies or Marmite, they couldn't really figure out why they liked it so much, they just did.
The very first time Nina had taken the tea, there had been pandemonium. Nina had panicked and screamed blue murder as she swelled up, tripping and falling over her own belly as she tried to leave the room while Brian tried to call an ambulance. It was only when she'd noticed the heat building within her, and realized her growth had stopped and she wasn't going to explode, that she'd calmed down and taken in her expansion. Nowadays, they just couldn't get enough of it.
For Brian, the best answer he could come up with for his attraction was his instintual love for a woman's curves. He loved woman's bodies, it was that simple. The flared curve of a hip, the swell of a breast, the soft line of a belly.. all these things could drive him into a feeling of strong passion and arousal. The tea just simply took all that to the next level, taking Nina's curves and expanding them to unimagined limits of attraction.
The growth seemed to suit Nina perfectly. He himself had drunk the tea a few times, on Nina's insistance that it was only fair he grew a few times himself. And while it was an interesting experience to swell up, it never felt as right as it did with Nina. All he got from the drink was a massive Buddha belly, some slight man-boobs, and an arse which stuck out like a seat cushion.
But with Nina, everything was beautfully elegant, every curve flowed naturally into another.
She may have looked bizarre, or even horrific to normal society, but in Brian's eyes, she looked incredible.
He gazed over her again, noting the various sizes she had attained. Her belly was enormous, surpassing the size of any normal measure of pregnancy, appearing like a over inflated, flesh coloured beachball attached to her middle. It's size forced her to part her legs and let the great belly graze against the mattress as it slowly swelled.
Speaking of her legs, he could see that her hips and thighs had fattened immensely, straining the material of her pyjama bottoms and pulling the fabric skintight. Her calves had swollen slightly as well, as if preparing to bear the great weight of her body if she had to stand.
The size of her breasts were harder to guage, as they were being squashed and contined by her botton down top. The buttons themselves were straining to hold on, creating large dimond shaped gaps where they tugged at the fabric. Brian moved to undo them and release her chest from it's confines, but Nina stopped him.
"Let me do it." She spoke breathlessly. "I wanna do it the fun way."
"You sure?" He asked. "You'll ruin your top."
"Oh it's fine. They're ony a tenner at Matalan anyway."
She sat back and arched her back, pushing her swollen chest out. The buttons creaked ominously.
Then, with a grin on her face, she took a deep breath, expanding her chest further.
Like a well-planned fireworks display, the buttons burst off, one after the other in quick succession. They watched as the small bits of plastic flew through the air, Nina giggling in delight as she followed their path towards the end of the bed.
With the restraints gone, her breasts flowed out of her open top, regaining their round shape as they rested atop her belly. Each breast was nearly the size of her head, and the flesh jiggled gently as she breathed. The loose t-shirt she wore under her top was pulled taut across her chest, the hem rising up as her breasts took up more space inside.
Nina didn't miss Brian's spellbound gaze on her chest, and beckoned him closer. Settling himself by her side and slightly over her upper body, he leaned in to kiss her. Her mouth eagerly pressed against his as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and held her against him. She felt one of his hands touch her left breasts, and she sighed happily into his mouth as her skin reacted to his touch. And as his hand roamed and gently stroked, it felt better, as there was a lot of skin to react.
Aside from the heat growing within her, this is what she truly loved about expanding like this. As she grew bigger, her body became more sensitive to touches upon it. And she was incredibly grateful that Brian was a man who loved to touch. She wasn't sure if it was some side effect of the tea, or if it was just her body reacting as it normally did, only magnified because she was so much bigger. Whenever it was, if being bigger meant that it felt better, then Nina wasn't going to argue.
Her hands took a break from rubbing Brian's muscular back and travelled to the sides of her belly, feeling as she tried to guage its size. She couldn't see it fully with Brian in front of her and taking up most of her attention, but she could feel that it was twice as wide as she was, and getting warmer.
Her skin was red hot, touching it felt similar to holding the hot plates at the bakery she worked at without an oven mitt on. She pressed her thighs into the sides of her belly, feeling the immense heat even through both pairs of pyjama bottoms.
Speaking of her bottoms, they were beginning to feel uncomfortable. The waistbands had slipped off her belly long ago, but were now being tested by holding on to her widening hips, cutting into the soft flesh. The cloth itself was stretched to it's limits around her thicker thighs, and a few tears were beginning to pop up. Sensing her discomfort, Brian reached down and slid a finger of each hand under the tight waistbands, and tugged them down. Nina pushed herself up with her hands to raise her hips so he could pull the garments fully down, no easy feat considering how heavy her belly now was. When her clothing was pulled down her legs, she let herself fall back onto the bed, the bedsprings creaking alarmingly as her body hit the mattress with a soft WHUMP.
Her entire body jiggled from the sudden motion, her breasts shaking back and forth as they were jostled by her quaking belly. The constant wobbling sent small shivers of pleasure through her, and let herself enjoy it for a while before she grabbed her chest with both hands to stop them moving. Pressing her palms into her chest, she could feel that her breasts were still growing, the hem of her shirt now hugging the bottom curves of her chest.
She looked up at Brian, and smirked at the 'deer in headlights' look he had on his face as he gazed at her body. This was another thing she loved about her transformation: The power it had over Brian.
It was petty, sure. But she couldn't deny that there was a certain thrill in being so big that her man was spellbound by her appearence. She appreciated that Brian loved her for everything beyond her looks, but sometimes it was fun to just seduce him with her body and let lust take over.
She crossed her arms over her chest and stared at him coyly. "So... where were we?"
Brian's surprised expression turned into one of concern. "Shouldn't you have stopped growing by now?"
Nina stared down at herself,peering past her chest, and realised he was right. In the past, her belly's growth would have stopped just when it reached her knees. But now it was still swelling bigger, pushing further down the space between her legs. The extra-large dose of the tea she'd drunk was still taking effect.
For a moment, she was bemused at the on-going growth. But then she smiled again, taking it in her stride.
"Well, this is interesting. I've never been this big before."
"I know, and that worries me." Brian rubbed the top of her belly in a cautious manner. "Do you feel alright?"
"I feel the same as usual, just... heavier." Nina replied, trying to scoot her body higher up the bed. But the sheer weight of her belly meant she could only move an inch before she gave up.
She looked at Brian reassuringly. "I don't think I'm going to pop like a balloon, if that's what you're thinking."
"I hope not.." Brian frowned. "Do you want to stop?"
"No way! Not after you got me all worked up." Nina said with determination. "And I know you don't want to stop. If I feel any pain I'll tell you to stop, but for now.."
She stared at him with longing eyes. "Stop worrying... and just take me."
That was all the provocation Brian needed. Instantly he was at her side, laying his upper body across hers and kissing her hungrily. His hands were all over her, groping and stroking her massive breasts and belly, having difficulties holding them as the flesh swelled underneath his fingers. They were aware that Nina was still expanding, but right now it was a mere afterthought conpared to touching and caressing each other.
The heat within Nina's enormous belly was white hot now, causing her normally pale skin to take on a deep, flushed red tone which glowed n the dim light of the room One could almost imagine a miniature Sun had been grafted onto Nina's body.
Attached to Nina, and pressing against Brian's side as it expanded, they could feel the great heat radiating from within her. But Nina was feeling another kind of heat, deep within her. The kind of heat you only feel in the throes of passion, with another person touching you sensually. The heat grew into an urge, and Nina looked at Brian and moaned, begging him to satisfy that urge.
Brian replied with a smile, and motioned for Nina to raise her body up. Since her great belly meant conventional love making was out of her question, Brian needed another way to reach that spot between her legs.
Despite the bulk of her belly preventing her from moving much, Nina was able to pull herself so that she was kneeling on her legs, with her belly in front of her. She was now so large that she could rest against her belly and still remain upright. She did so now, resting her head on one of her enormous breasts. The heat within her warmed her entire body, and she sighed in contentment.
Brian took a moment to study her, his hands tracing a delicate line down her slim shoulders and back, which had remained unchanged. Lower down, her sides flared out into massive hips which were twice as wide as Brian was, and buttocks the size of basketballs.
He teased her a little by stroking her bottom and thighs, but when her small moans became more needy, he knew she was ready.
His hand crept between her legs, finding the spot where they belonged. She gave a tiny squeak of surprise as his fingers slipped in, followed by a happy sigh as he began to stroke her.
As he gently thrust into her, a steady but gentle motion, he leant closer to her, his chest pressing against her back as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders and kissed her cheek. His free hand began to stroke her breasts, his fingers pressing into her flesh as it swelled beneath his hand.
She let herself go limp and rest against her body, small gasps escaping her mouth as Brian's ministrations began to increase in speed and vigor.
Everywhere around her , she could feel warmth and pleasure. The touch of Brian's fingers inside her, his hand on her breasts, his mouth kissing her face and nibbling on her earlobe, and the heat of her belly radiating against her entire body as she pressed into it. She could feel the heat within levelling off, and her belly's sides still stretching as she grew, but it was just a fleeting sensation buried beneath the overwhelming surge of delight building within her.
When she eventually came, it was like sinking into molten lava, a sudden rush of heat inside her entire body, spreading out and boiling her before it cooled into a gentle heat all around her. Her mind went blank, and her body went limp against her belly.
When she opened her eyes, she felt Brian cuddling her from behind, nuzzling his head against the crook of her neck. She turned her head to kiss him, then looked down at herself. Her eyes turned wide with surprise. Brian followed her gaze, equally shocked.
Below her slim shoulders rested her breasts, bigger and more swollen than any surgeon or artist could imagine breasts to look on a human. Each breast was twice the size of her head, two great orbs of flushed pink flesh which seemed to throb in time with her breathing. Her t-shirt was hugging her chest for dear life, the hem now stretched to it's limits and drawn up to expose her still normal-sized nipples.
But even more impressive than her boobs was the belly they sat upon. Beginning just below her chest, it stretched out in all directions in front of her, going well beyond the length of her legs until it curved around and back to meet her body. It was an enormous, soft orb of flesh, which dwarfed the petit girl it was attached to and took up almost all of the space on the bed, nearly pushing Brian off the side.
Nina ran her hands around the areas she could still reach with her hands. "Wow... "
"I know.." Brian joined her in rubbing her expansive tummy. Pressing his hands gently into her side, he could feel that she wasn't still growing, and the heat within her had levelled off into what could be considered a comfortable glow.
He looked at Nina, who was cuddling against her belly with an expression of pure contentment.
"So.. not feeling cold anymore?" He asked jovially.
"Mmmm... not a bit." She sighed happily. She leaned over and kissed his cheek. "Thank you."
Brian smiled. Knowing that this made her happy, no matter how strange it looked, was all the reason he needed.
Both of them were now feeling sleepy, but settling down for the night took a bit of preperation. Since Nina was unable to lay on her back, lest she be crushed by her immense belly, she had to lay on her side, which left her belly covering the entirety of Brian's side of the bed. Fortunately, it was malleble enough so that Brian could push his legs under her belly without causing her discomfort. She giggled as he wriggled his toes against her skin.
Finally, Brian pulled the blanket over them, though it was hardly needed. Besides the fact that it could only just cover Nina's bulk, her belly provided enough heat for both of them to sleep comfortably.
Gettling as close to her as he could, Brian wrapped his arms around her and cuddled her, the sound of her breathing gently lulling him to sleep.
They fell asleep together, the cold air which usually kept them awake hardly bothering them.
-----------
Brian groaned as he sat up and rubbed his eyes of sleep. Mornings were never his thing, especially when he knew he had to go to work in just a short while.
As his mind caught up with the rest of his body, the first thing noticed was the chilly air against the bare skin of his arms and face. The second thing was that Nina was missing.
"You're up." Her voice called from the doorway. Nina entered the room holding a steaming mug in each hand.
Her body had almost returned to it's former state before she had drunk the 'Special Blend'. At a glance, Brian could see she sported a very distinct pot-belly which peeked out from under her pyjama shirt, and her breasts were still a bit larger than they normally were.
It was usual for the effects of the tea to wear off during the night, leaving Nina back to her normal slim form. Obviously, the large dose she had taken last night hadn't fully worn off.
"Thirsty?" She handed him a mug, which he eagerly took a large swig from.
"Ooh, thanks." He spoke, feelings the warming effects of the tea.
"I figured you would need it." Nina said. "We didn't notice, but it snowed heavily last night."
"Really?" He glanced at the window. "Ah damn, it's going to be a nightmare getting into work... what time is it?"
He moved to get out of bed, but Nina stepped forward and pushed him back. There was a sly smile on her face.
"Actually, I got a call from your boss while you were snoozing. It seems the snow's so bad out there, they're not going to bother to open until the roads have been cleared. I got the same call from my boss."
Brian grinned as the news sank in. "So we get a day off? Result!"
"Well... that's the good news." Nina climbed up on the bed and straddled Brian's waist, careful not to spill her drink.
"And what's the bad news?" He asked, taking another sip.
Nina's smile widened. "It means I have you stuck here, completely at my mercy."
"What does that mean.." Brian paused as he felt an odd sensation in his gut. He felt full, as if he'd eaten a large breakfast.
He stared at the mug in his hand, realizing that the tea had a green tint to it. "You didn't.."
Suddenly, his stomach began to bulge out, pushing out from under his shirt. It expanded until it was touching Nina's potbelly.
"That's right." Nina spoke, grinning wickedly at Brian's surprised expression. "It's much too cold, and the snow's too thick to go outside. So we're going to stay inside and keep warm through... various, amusing ways and means."
And with a great flourish, she drank the entire contents of her mug in one swallow. She flung the mug aside and stared at her swelling boyfriend hungrily, licking her lips.
"Think you can take the heat?"
Brian smiled back. "Bring it on."
