From a blue smart car, shielded against the elements by a glowing blue forcefield, parked just at the end of the driveway. From the vehicle, emerged a small man, not adequately dressed for the night’s weather. As he hurried up the large walkway, the figure held a small backpack over his head in attempt to shield himself from the pelting hail storm.
“OW, ow, ow, ow. That hurts.” He complained as he huffed breathlessly, walking up to the driveway. Knocking on the giant door in front of him, he took the time to wipe his foggy glasses as dry as he could get them. At first he heard… Nothing at first. However, nothing brought out once voice, then a pair, then what sounded like 3 different voices bickering from inside the home, as an eye peaked out from the side window, before being yanked away. This led to more bickering, from inside. It was at this moment, the man at the door was starting to wonder what it was he had stepped into. Suddenly, though they were muffled, he both heard and felt a monstrous pair of feet, shuffling behind the door. The be speckled man shuddered to himself, clenching his sphincter in shock, as he soon found himself looking up at the largest woman he’d ever seen, if not the largest in existence. From what he could gather from her Eyeing him in such a scrutinizing fashion, he apparently wasn’t welcome here.
“You don’t look like a cop. What do you want?” Monique asked downward, arms folded. As the little man before her stuttered for an answer, Monique saw fit to get a good look at him. He was skinny, not athletically so, but a bit scrawny-looking. Beneath his electric blue hoodie, he wore a lime-green t-shirt that had some kinda blocky digital monster on the front, along with tan cargo pants, and black sneakers. To sum it up, the guy looked like a total dork, though one that was pretty cute, to the giant woman. Like the kinda guy that carries a calculator instead of a weapon on him. Monique felt her eyes roll, as the visitor continued to timidly mumble up to her. “Oh, Jesus Christ, would you speak up, sir?!” She roared impatiently Causing the small man to flinch into a defensive pose. Monique took note that his watch looked similar to the watch Jimmy wore. “I-I’m just here, because someone activated a distress beacon on one of my watches.” The man sputtered out. “I’ve been looking for it all day, and I think it might be here.” He said, making more of an effort to look the large woman in the eye. ‘Of course, it had something to do with him.” Monique scoffed inwardly. She knew That guy was a thief, and this guy looked like just the chump he could take advantage of. Wait here Point Dexter, I’ll go get your little watch.” The giantess spoke, turning back into the house But, w-wait can I just-.” The man started before being unceremoniously cutoff, by the heavy door slamming n his face. “-Come inside, maybe?” Marvin asked, shivering dejectedly, as a flurry of wind blew by.
“Hey, Princess. Where’s the homeless at?” Monique called searching the living room. “You mean Jimmy? Yeah, he’s upstairs, using the bathroom. Who was that at the door?” Destinee answered from the kitchen. “Some nerd, wants his watch back. Apparently, the vagrant stole it off him. Surprise, surprise, Am I right?” Monique said, crouching through the kitchen’s doorway. “Based on what we’ve seen so far? No, not really.” Destinee Said, putting a kettle on the now hot stove. “I’m making tea. Go see if the guy wants any. I bet it’s freezing out there. “She said activating the burner. “Yeah that’s a no from me, princess. It’s freezing out there. Just bring it to him on the porch, when it’s ready.” Monique called, reclining on the couch. “Wait, you left him outside?!” Destinee called from the kitchen. Monique scoffed at her tone, unsure what the issue was. “Look, I was thinking, get him his watch, really quick, not serving him tea. And anyway; he’s got a car out there, so If he’s cold, he can sit in there.” The giant woman state flatly. As she sat, she noticed the sink upstairs. “Is Jimmy still up there?’ She thought, perplexed. The sink was running for a longer time than someone just washing their hands. ‘The hell is he doing up there?’ She thought, Hearing the front door being heaved open, Destinee spilling a string of apologies.
“I’m so sorry my dumbass friend left you out there to freeze like that, Melvin, right?” She heard from Destinee say. Apart of her brushed off the man’s plight, while a small sliver couldn’t help cringing in remorse, at the sound of the little dude’s teeth chattering. Afterall people like him or the vagrant would hardly survive out there for long periods of time, and this nerd didn’t seem to be nearly as tough, nor as much of an asshole as the first intruder. “A-actually it’s Mar-Marvin Lassiter. Also, yeah that tea sounds great, by the way.” She heard the man say. Although he still fumbled with his words, it seemed with Destinee it was more from the cold, rather than the fear he showed her. Of course, was a lot less imposing then her, so obviously she’d have an easier time with Most people. “Glad to meet a giant women here that’s civilized. Not like that viscous bru- Ohmygod!” The bespectacled man nearly choked on his statement, upon Seeing Monique Sprawled across the living room couch. “Hey there, point Dexter”, She said flashing a toothy smile.
“Yeah, I’m not a giant.” Destinee corrected. “Just a “boosted” up human. So, I keep my civility, but with some added size, on me.” Destine stated, flexing one of her arms. “Well anyway Marvin, why don’t you make yourself comfortable, while I check on that tea. Don’t worry about her. Monique here just likes to act like a bully.” The Amazon said, attempting to calm Marvin’s fragile nerves. “Trust me, she’s all bark, when you get down to it.” Destinee said, Strutting into the Kitchen. Enjoying the man’s trepidation; Monique beckoned him over, slapping one of her tree trunk legs against the seat. “You heard her. Come make yourself comfortable with this big ol’ brute.” She spoke with a mischievous giggle. Marvin shuffled nervously towards the large seat. As he did, a gold glint between her large breasts caught his eye. Surely compliments could work as a good icebreaker. “Th-that’s a very um, nice necklace you got there, Monique.” He said, in an awkward attempt to make small talk. He soon cringed inward, as booming laughter shook him to his core. “Glad you like it, I lifted it off some bum. How about you come over, get a closer look?” Monique asked playfully snapping her large white teeth at him. Marvin gulped, as he thought inwardly. “Why did she leave me alone with her?”
As Destinee Poured yet another cup with tea, she stopped upon becoming aware of her running shower. “The Hell is Heiden doing up there?” She asked in annoyance. Setting the cups down, she made her way upstairs, pounding on the bathroom door. “Look, this isn’t a homeless shelter. Get out of my bathroom, Jimmy!” She yelled, with as much force as she could. Soon she water stop, as the door opened, letting out a potent steamy aroma. “Look, I’m just about done anyway, Give me a sec, alright? I aint had a shower in a hot minute.” She heard him say. “Well, hurry up. Some guy named Marvin is here about that watch, And-.” As Destinee was talking, she suddenly heard the sounds of a scared yelping, and a familiar giggling, from downstairs. “Oh shit, hold up. Also, you better leave my bathroom the way you found it.” Destinee said, rushing back down the stairs, leaving James utterly confused. “Monique, what the hell?! Get off of him!” He heard Destinee scream. She sounded mortified. “Ooh, I gotta see this shit.” James said, with a devilish grin.
Meanwhile downstairs, Monique, batted Destinee away from her, as she continued to clutch the scared Marvin close to her bosom Greedily. “Come on Destinee, we were just talking. He said he liked my necklace, I was giving him a closer look. Anyway, you said he was cold, I just wanted to warm him up.” She said rolling her eyes at the small man’s flailing attempts to shock her with a buzzing taser. “I mean, it’s not like I’m hurting the little man, now am I?” She cooed down to the struggling man, ignoring the muffled cries from her breasts. As Monique was lost in her mirth, she suddenly felt a plucking sensation on her neck. As she whipped her head around, she saw James Heiden, his necklace back in hand, in a pair of blue sweats, a wife beater, and newer brown Sneakers. “Sheesh, what the hell did I miss? Also, who’s this dude?!” James asked incredulously, pointing at Marvin. A muffled reply Came from Marvin, as he continued to push against the larger woman’s body. Destinee, shot Monique an expectant look, as Monique giggled to herself.
“What, he tickles.” She said, noting how the cross expression had yet to change on he friend’s face. “Alright, alright, fine.” She said, reluctantly letting Marvin fall to the floor, as he coughed, and sputtered to catch his breath. “Y-you, have the most irregular heartbeat, I’ve ever heard. And you smell like seafood” He spoke in disgust to the Giantess, while adjusting his glasses. “What can I say, tonight’s brought me a lot of excitement.” Monique shrugged. “Look Jimmy, this is Marvin, you got his watch, give it back to him please.” Destinee begged, exhausted by the night’s events. James did as he was instructed, tossing the gaudy watch to Marvin’s feet. “Damn thing didn’t even have a backlight.” James said, bitterly. “Oh no? Maybe buy one that does, instead of stealing other people’s property.” Marvin snapped, collecting the watch, and making his way towards the door. Well look guys. Tonight, has been fun, but I think it’s time we go our separate-.” Marvin said, struggling to open the heavy door again. Upon dragging it inward, he was met with clusters of violent lightning strikes, blistering cold winds, and pouring rain.
“O-Ok, never m-m-mind looks like I-I’m staying here, t-tonight, if its c-c-c-cool, with y’all.” Marvin said, shivering violently from the outside. Before he could even stop shivering, Marvin felt himself being scooped up into a burly embrace, as he was lifted off the ground.
“Aww, now would you like me to warm you up?” Monique asked, teasingly. “Y-yes, please.” Marvin answered, hugging her back, in earnest. James couldn’t help but snicker at the display before him. “Well, while yall two are doing…that; Imma get me some blankets, to make a pallet.” James said, racing back up the stairs, before coming back down, in just as short a time. “Found them!” H said, as Destinee came from behind him with a large tray filled with steaming cups. Marvin almost found the eases she carried it with impressive, then again, she was larger than most people so, it wasn’t surprising. “Here, I got tea to warm everyone up. And just so were clear, tomorrow morning, everyone that’s not me needs to beat it!” She said taking a sip from her cup.
“Shit Fine by me, Y’all crazy over here.” James said, taking a sip from his mug.
“Fine, I gotta change for brunch Anyway, and tommow, we’re doing it princess.” Monique said, taking a large swig from her tankard.
“Uuunmmmmzzzzzz” Marvin slurred, as he nestled into Monique’s warm body.
“Well, he sure looks comfortable.” James joked, with a chuckle. “Hmph, damn right he is. I’m better than a tempurpedic, over here.” Monique said in triumph. “So, What about you, Jim? You going to be ok out there?” Monique asked, in concern. James waived off the question after another sip “Look don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine, I’ll get your squeeze toy over there, to take me over there take me to my interview tomorrow, ten maybe a shelter, that isn’t too full.” He said. “Huh? Whazzat?” Marvin asked groggily, from his sleep. “Nothing nerd. Drink your tea, and fall back asleep.” James said, handing him a hot mug. As the room fell silent (besides Marvin sipping), Destinee looked at him in Concern, when a thought occurred to her. “Y’ know what? How about’ you guys meet us at the stormy palace? It’s a boxing gym, where the owner does some charity work, here and there. Maybe he can help with your living situation, or maybe even a job, if you need it?” “Hmm, If I can, I’ll pass through. That’s pretty nice of you.” James said, in gratitude.
“Ya’ know what? I think we should have a toast.” Monique bellowed, rousing Marvin from his sleepy state. “Huh? Toast?” Marvin asked. “Yeah, I like that!” Destinee said in agreement. “But a toast to what?” She asked. “I mean, considering how things between all of us started, I think they ended on a nice note.” James said, swallowing his next sip. “So, how about we toast to… Having a nice night?” James said, raising his mug.
“Yeah, sure, why not.” Destinee said
“Yeah, to a nice night.” Monique said, raising her large tankard
“Uhuh, everything is nice.” Marvin said, sleepily lifting his mug.
“Cheers!” Everyone said in unison. As the newly formed quartet continued sipping their tea. James couldn’t help but smile at the night’s events. “Gotta say, this is an interesting place to find shelter.” He muttered, Taking another swig from his mug. “Hey, anybody got the time? I’m going to need to get some sleep soon.” He inquired to the room.
