Pizza O'Clock: Busy Beaver Morning (Preview)

Hailey shifted onto her back slowly and sat back up. She blinked once, some of her senses and awareness slowly awakening. For one thing, she realized her glasses were still on, crooked and smudged from all of her tossing and turning.

Man, I went to bed late. She took them off and looked at them. I got to remember to take these off before bed. I don't want to damage them.

Not that it would be an issue today, right?

Right… right. Hailey slipped over to the side of the bed, scratching the side of her head and letting her hand go through her dirty brown blonde hair. Speaking of mess, her locks were all puffy and unkempt. It would take some serious brushing to get them looking presentable.

Though, again, it would hardly be an issue for that day.

Her arms reached high into the air, stretching slowly and quaking. Her jaw dropped low, cracking and popping slightly as a huge yawn followed. She muttered out some words to herself, “Time to get ready for today!”

With a smack of the lips and a few blinks, Hailey cleared her throat and took a deep breath. Her eyes closed as she exhaled. Focus…

Her small, dainty hands went to her stomach and pressed against the shirt covering it. Focus. Her fingers gently rubbed the partially flat area. Focus…

Her stomach bubbles, a low gurgle coming from it. That's right. Let it all out!

She opened her eyes. “Buurrp!” Her throat felt hot as the gas escaped her mouth. It was a small belch, but there was something at the end of it. Something thick.

Hailey sat there and waited, hands at her sides. She sat there for a bit before looking at herself. Hmm, not good enough. Might need to better coax it out.

Things began again. She cleared her throat and took another deep breath, releasing it faster. She placed her hands against her stomach and gently rubbed the area, more tenderly and deeper. Focus… focus big! …big… yeah, big, huge…

Her stomach bubbled and gurgled, the sounds heavier and louder. Huge, large, wide, heavy… Her shoulders tensed, tummy noises growing louder. Chunky, chubby, tubby, FAT!

Her pupils dilated. That's the ticket! “BUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRP!” A cartoonish belch bellowed deep from within the woman, her mouth opening wide and letting it all out.

Goosebumps went down her spine. It felt so pleasurably good to do that.

As the belch ended, hairs stood on end and fingers twitched. Slowly and unconsciously, her hand moved to her tummy again, not rubbing but scratching it like a slob.

Better… Hailey nodded and gently sniffed and smacked her lips. There was something different in the air and in her mouth now. The smell and taste of tobacco and pizza was there, faintly but growing. Much better.

She let out another yawn and stretched out her legs. They shook gently, cartoony vibrations lines radiating off of them. Her toes especially seem to shake, jerking and clenching over and over until...

Plop! The big toe on her right foot inflated. It grew into a pudgy digit with chocolate brown fur over it, soft looking as it could be. Her toenail popped to the front, thickening and shifting into a stubby, dull claw.

Plop-plop-plop-plop-plop! Then in a wave, all of her toes inflated. Some merged together while others fattened. Brown fuzz coated them all, claws at their ends. Three large toes were on each foot, the middle ones being the largest.

Hailey looked down at her feet, staring blankly. She wiggled her fat toes and nodded. Well, okay then!

She stood up and walked over to her nightstand, her balance perfectly fine and on point. She took the phone from it, not really noticing how large the phone was in her mitt. Well, slowly but surely, I'll get there. Wonder how…

Crap! She saw the time, her heart skipping a beat and dropping the phone. She had to open early, and she had slept in! Gotta pick up the pace here! I don't wanna be late!
