The light spilling in through the nearby window and crawled Roy’s face. Twitching and turning his head, he felt himself return to consciousness. Sitting up and stretching as he awoke from a good night sleep. With a big yawn, he greeted the rising sun. Still groggy, he rubbed his eyes and looked around.

“Where… am I?” Roy wondered.

Looking around the room in the dim morning light, he felt something was missing, he felt somewhat lost even though he recognized his surroundings. Waking up on his friend’s couch wasn’t too weird for him, but the memory of sleeping over didn’t come to him. Looking around Mimi’s living room, he tossed off the blanket and stood up. Shrugging off his confusion and starting the day.

Standing up and still groggy, he folded his blanket and stuffed it into the nearby closet. Digging into his backpack’s side pocket and fishing out his toothbrush and tooth paste. Leaving the bag in the closet as he often did when he stayed the night. Marching over to the downstairs restroom to freshening up for the day. As he walked over to the restroom a weird feeling came over him. He had to pause as he felt he was moving faster than he was used too. Feeling as if he covered more ground too quickly. It was as if it would have normally taken him much more time to walk a few feet. He had to laugh at himself as the thought was absurd.

“I must still be tired” He thought to himself as he began brushing his teeth.

Just as he finished, he could hear the creak of floor boards above him.

“Someone’s up” Knowing he was right under Mimi’s room. Roy gathered his things and placed his belonging back into his bag. Just as he finished that, a sound caught his attention.

DING-DONG! Rang the doorbell.

Roy instinctively made his way to the door, but remembered this wasn’t his house and stopped in his tracks.

“Am I even allowed to answer that?” He contemplated. Still frozen as another ring from the door bell rang with impatience.

DING-DONG! DING-DONG!

Roy could hear a call from upstairs but couldn’t make out the words. Turning his attention to the stairwell as he heard someone marching over. It was Mimi standing to the top, a toothbrush protruding from her mouth. She stood there still clearly waking up from sleep and slightly hunched. Her eyes were half open as she sleepily scanned the situation.

Her hair was messier than usual. She had clearly slept on one side all night, as her hair was much more disturbed on the right side of her head. Her legs and feet were bare and she wore a shirt that was a couple sizes too big. This was no doubt intentional, as her lazy pajamas. The shirt was familiar to Roy, it had a large buff man in a super hero suit on it, posing in a strongman pose. He was a main character in an anime they had watched together. The words above the man read PLUS ULTRA! The words were legible across her chest. He didn’t mind that she was comfortable enough to be around him without a bra, though he tried not to stare.

“Roy…” She squeaked out like a zombie relearning to speak. Her eyes almost completely closed as she groggily scratched her leg, revealing that she wasn’t wearing shorts.

As Roy lay his eyes on her, many feelings suddenly overcame him. The most prominent feeling was guilt. He had to look away from her as he suddenly felt so small. Being in her presence was like being in someones house after you broke one of their windows. He felt the need to apologize but couldn’t pinpoint why. It was in the back of his mind, the guilt immediately weighing on him.

“Did I forget something…?” He pondered scratching his head. “Did I do something wrong?”

“Roy…” She croaked once again “Can you get the door please?”

Snapping his attention back to the half asleep girl.

“Y-yeah! No worries. I got this” Roy turned for the door.

Just before he turned the knob, he looked back up the stairwell to make sure Mimi wasn’t still displaying her morning appearance. Once he couldn’t see her anymore he opened the door.

Before him stood a professionally dressed young woman. Her long pink hair was tied into a tight bun. Her purple eyes, shielded by her thick rimmed black oval glasses. Roy was hit with so much whiplash he had to take a step back. He took a moment to stare at her unusual style. She was slightly shorter than him, with a nice figure. Dressed like she was going to sell a house. Her hair and eye color screamed cosplayer, but her clothes and clipboard told him she meant business. To top off the clash in styles she had a beautiful face. Big eyes that possibly had contacts in them, long eye lashes, cute plump lips, and a cute button nose. Roy was stunned by this woman.

He stood there for a moment unsure what to say. Realizing he had been quiet for too long, Roy quickly tucked in his shirt into his jeans, straightened his back and greeted her.

“Uh! He-hello. Good morning! how can I help you?” Roy stammered.

“Good morning! It’s nice to meet you.” She said in a sweet sounding voice after giggling at his unusual behavior. Sticking out her hand for him to shake.

Roy quickly met her hand and shook it back.

“I’m sorry to bother you this morning mister…” She waited for him to introduce himself.

“Roy! It’s Roy” fumbling with his words.

“Roy…” She looked thoughtful at him for a moment staring into his eyes “I like that name.”

A smile came across her face as she continued.

“Well Mr. Roy.” Pushing her glasses up she began flipping through her clipboard pages. Looking for something, before she continued speaking “I am looking for a miss… Mimi!”

“Yes Mimi lives here, shes upstairs getting ready for the day. If you don’t mind waiting-”

“Ah! I see!” She looked as though she just realized something. Looking Roy up and down as she silently thought to herself.

“Uh… you see what?” He questioned as he was scanned by her.

A coy smile appearing on her face as she eyed Roy. A smile like she just heard a dirty secret.

“She must feel so lucky to have a young man like you at her side” She was now grinning ear to ear. “Such a cutie!”

Roy’s jaw dropped at the implications of that sentence. Not knowing what to say to fix her misconception. Instead he just stammered as he tried to find the words.

“I- uh… I think you might be misunderstand- I just spent the night.” Not realizing that last sentence was making things worse. Her eyes widened, her smile continuing to grow.

“Oh I see! Well here you go, Mr. Roy or should I say Mr. Mimi” She said as she dug into her pocket.

“M-mr. Who?” He mumbled.

“Ta-da!” She presented a large blue ticket. The size of the ticket was comically large, reminiscent of the original Willy Wanka movie. The ticket had an image of an island shaped like a woman, lounging as she floated in the ocean. “Mimi has won a paid meal at The Hungry Islet Restaurant! Eligible to a party of up to four people. Offer expires today, no reservation needed. No trades and not combinable with any other offers.” She said that last sentence almost too rapidly to understand.

This woman could not contain her excitement, she was practically jumping up and down. She was not discouraged at all by Roy’s lack of emotion. Not wanting to drag this out anymore, the woman reached down and grabbed Roy’s hand. Placing the ticket in his hand with a smile. Making eye contact and smiling a big cheesy grin.

“Congratulations! I am so glad we got to meet. Well, we hope to see you there soon. Remember that expires tonight! You two have a great day!” With a smile she waved and walked to her car. Before he knew it she was gone. The entire interaction with this woman had his head spinning. Still standing in the doorway even after she left.

Looking down at the over sized meal voucher. The island shaped like a woman wore sunglasses and a sun hat. The words on the ticket were gold and read:

YOUR WISH CAME TRUE! A FREE MEAL YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO RESIST!

“Who was it?” Called a now more awake sounding voice from the stairs landing.

Turning to see Mimi, Roy finally closing the door. She was now dressed and seemingly ready for the day. Wearing a pink tank top and blue jeans shorts. Her hair haphazardly brushed, the cow lick still present. Roy rolled his eyes knowing better than to try and say something.

“I guess you just won a free meal”

Mimi stopped and eyed Roy, making him feel somewhat uneasy. After letting those words sink in, she rushed down the stairs, making it down to him in an instant. Snatching the ticket and scanning it.

“Roy! This place!” Now staring Roy in the eyes, her nose close enough to touch his.

“The… Hungry Islet? Never heard of it. What about it?”

“Never what!?” She acted like Roy just spat in her face. “Roy, what are you talking about!? The famous cruise ship: The Hungry Islet, opens a fancy restaurant of the same name and you never heard of it!?”

“I have never been on a cruise so I guess I just never-”

“You guess wrong small fry!” She said with a large grin on her face “But! It is your lucky day because I can bring up to three guests with me! That means you, me and two more meals for me to take home!”

Mimi was elated. Roy thought she might start flying, as she skipped into the living room with joy.

“So I guess we are doing that today then?” He said laughing at how happy she was. “Only you would get so excited about food.”

“Oh! Oh! You’ll see when we get there” she said not looking away from the ticket.

“So where is this fancy restaurant, I have never heard of?”

“It’s at the place… you know near the convention cent-” She stopped suddenly.

“… Mimi…?”

Without answering she pulled her phone from her pocket and immediately began scrolling and clicking. In a flash, her phone was pressed to her ear.

“So the convention center is across town” Roy continued. “We can probably take a bus or some-”

“Shh!” Mimi was practically jogging in place with impatience.

Roy remained silent as the phone call connected. He could hear a faint sound as the ringing stopped.

“Hey girl-!” Said the voice on the phone.

“GIRL!” Mimi interrupted “Roy and I are going to The Hungry Islet Restaurant! We need a ride! Please, please, please!”

“A ride? Yeah sure I can drive you two… Hey cool if I join, or is it like… a date?”

“N-no! Of course you can… eat with us” Mimi’s eyes darted over at Roy then back to nothing in particular.

Roy couldn’t help but notice. He wasn’t trying to be nosy, but she was right next to him. He could hear the conversation very easily, even Sarah’s voice on the phone. Trying not to eavesdrop he pulled out his phone and began scrolling through messages.

“Are you sure girl? I won’t go if you want to do this alone.” Sarah questioned.

Mimi now actively pressing the volume down button on the side of her phone.

“She must not have been pushing it correctly” Roy thought as he could still hear every word. He continued to scroll, pretending to read messages.

“No way!” Mimi said with a fake sounding laugh. “We would love it if you joined us! Get ready now please! We will see you when your ready.”

“Girl I just need to get dressed! Woo! The Hungry Islet let’s go! Meet me at the car!” She shouted excitedly before she hung up.

Mimi still smiling as she press the end call button. Staring at the phone even as the screen went black. Roy stood for a moment in the silence. She continued to stare.

“You okay?” Roy finally asked. “I am guessing Sarah is coming?”

“I… so hungry…”

“Mimi…?” His concern starting to grow.

Mimi’s head shot up as if she had just woke up from a dream.

“Roy! Islet!” A big smile forming on her face again “Sarah is coming! Let’s go!”

Roy stared not knowing if she was still half asleep. Deciding she must have just spaced out, followed her out of the house.

The three of them pilled into Sarah’s white Prius and where on the road in no time.

“Thanks for inviting me girl. I have been wanting to go there for so long! And it’s free!? You are a lucky girl!” Sarah said excitedly.

“Same here! My parents wouldn’t pay for it.” Mimi complained. “My dad would say: With prices like that, we could make three meals here!”

“Of course! I cannot believe you got a free meal for four!” She looked back from the drivers seat in quiet excitement.

“Nice dress by the way. Makes me feel kind of under dressed.” Mimi was referring to Sarah’s dress that she changed into as soon as she got invited. A burgundy low cut dress with a floral pattern at the nape and the bottom.

“It’s just your style Mimi.” Roy interjected. “We would have thought it looked strange if you got all dressed up.”

“Aww thanks… I think.” Mimi smiled in confusion. “I cannot wait for the food!” The bit of self consciousness she showed was gone at the thought of the coming meal.

Roy laughed as they gushed about the delicious food offered at The Hungry Islet. He started to zone out as he watched the cars go by. His mind wandering back to his earlier thoughts.

“What happened last night?” Trying and failing to remember the night before.

The smell of Lavender wafted into his nose. Which wasn’t too weird, it was Sarah’s scent of choice. However Roy couldn’t help but feel like it was coming from him, his hair and clothes. As if the scent had attached itself to him.

“Has the smell of this car already attached to me?”

Before he could ponder on that further the car hit a bump in the road. Startling him for a moment. What got his attention next was something soft against his hand. Looking down he was surprised to see it was Mimi’s hand on his.

Everything froze for Roy as all his attention was on her soft and dainty hand. Roy looked up and scoffed at her unconscious face. Her head leaning against the door, right on her worsening cowlick. Not wanting to wake his tired friend he let her hand lie on his. Becoming very aware of every little movement he was making. He did his best not to move her too much.

“Our sleepy little Mims huh?” Roy turned to see Sarah’s eyes watching him from the rear view mirror. Roy jolted in place like he just got caught doing something he wasn’t supposed to be doing.

“Yeah, I guess she burned all her energy getting excited this morning” He said with a smile, quickly regaining his composure.

“At least, she doesn’t sleep as hard as you do.” She said with a smile. “But still, she’s so cute when she knocks out like that. Don’t you think?”

Roy was caught off guard by that question and stared in silence for a moment.

“W-well yeah I mean… Who isn’t?” Roy finally spat out.

“Good point” Sarah continued to watch him “Hey Roy can I ask you a question?”

“Now that she is asleep… can you stick something in for me?” She asked nonchalantly.

Not knowing what she meant by that, Roy stared and began to squint at the reflection in the rear view mirror. Starting to grow wise to her promiscuous personality and constant teasing. Sarah just smiled and pulled the car into a gas station. Roy rolled his eyes and unbuckled his seat belt.

Sarah laughed aloud as she knew he got the hint. Just as Roy pulled away he felt a slight tug at his hand. Turning back to see Mimi still asleep.

“Probably just reflexes.” He thought to himself. The softness of Mimi’s hand now gone from his. He felt cold and slightly guilty for abandoning her unconscious hand.

Taking Sarah’s credit card, he pumped her gas. Then after returning the hose, made his way back to the rear passenger door. Before he could open it he noticed the front passenger door was wide open. Intrigued, he looked in and saw Sarah watching him.

“Hey Roy Toy, why don’t you sit up here with me? Mim’s is asleep anyways. Maybe you can sit up here and we can whisper, you know so we don’t wake her?”

Roy felt uneasy with her suggestion but at the same time, knew it made sense. Without another thought he sat in the front passenger seat.

“See it’s not so scary up here?” She teased.

Roy squinted at her.

“I know what it’s like to sit up here.”

“Well of course you do. Now” She laughed to herself.

Roy rolled his eyes. Looking over his shoulder to see if Mimi was still asleep. Still unconscious and almost unmoving, minus the light snoring. Her hand still lay alone.

The trio were back on the road to the restaurant.

“I wonder if she didn’t sleep well last night?” Sarah wondered allowed.

Roy still watching her, wondered the same. The only energy he saw out of her today, was when he revealed the ticket she won.

“No idea. I hope she is okay.” Roy admitted. The feeling of guilt still creeping back into him.

“Oh Roy. Sweet little Roy Toy. You have a big heart you know that?”

“I guess so” Roy looked away slightly embarrassed “We have just been friends forever ya know?”

“Of course I do. I’ve been there too” She looked away from the road to make a sad expression at Roy.

Roy felt genuine regret at his choice of words. Truthfully Roy and Mimi had always been close, but recently Roy and Sarah have gotten closer.

“Well, of course you have!” Roy stuttered to get the words out “I-I didn’t mean to imply that you and me aren’t friends or anything like that. I really like when we hang out.”

Sarah frown slowly turned into a smile.

“Thanks Roy. That means a lot to me. I was starting to get the feeling you didn’t like me. Or that you only hung out with me because, I am Mimi’s best friend”

“No of course not. I like you for who you are, no question. The three of us have had tons of adventures together.”

Sarah continued to smile as she watched the road. Her eyes starting to shine, as if welling up with tears. Roy tried not to stare, wondering if he said too much. Before he could continue that train of thought, his hand was once again covered by something soft.

His eyes darting to a familiar sight. Sarah had now rested a hand on Roy’s. The difference is that Sarah was conscious. Roy’s heart began to pick up pace.

“Uh… ten and two right?” he said referring to her no longer having two hands on the wheel. Sweat starting to build on his brow.

“Just ten” she made eye contact and winked. “I like to live life on the edge.”

“Even when our lives are in your hands?” Roy joked.

“That’s right your life is in my hands. I take what I want with my own hands.”

Roy didn’t know how to respond to that, so he didn’t. He tried to pull his hand away but she wouldn’t let him get away. Her hand was soft and slender but held strong. Giving up she held his hand for the remainder of the ride.

It didn’t take long before they arrived at the restaurant. Before letting go of Roy’s hand and gave him a look. A look that said “Watch this” Then she called to the sleeping passenger.

“Mims were here.” Sarah said in a sing song voice as she parked in the lot. Like a dog listening for her owner to arrive at home, she stirred and woke frantically.

“Oh thank God!” She blurted wiping her drool away. Searching around the lot for the entrance “I’m starving lets go!”

As soon as Sarah parked the car Mimi exited and ran for the entrance. Like a kid running into a candy shop, she lead the group. Sarah looked at Roy and gave him a look, Roy couldn’t help but laugh at Mimi’s excitement. Running back, Mimi grabbed a hand from both of them to quicken their pace.

The restaurant was it’s own building, Three stories tall. The exterior was modeled to resemble a cruise ship. Over-sized portholes lined the walls. Granting an easy view of well dressed parties enjoying expensive looking food. The trio arrived at a large ramp headed up to the entrance. An imitation gangway that rose about five feet. In lights above the entrance read “The Hungry Islet”. The theme was like a fancy cruise ship. Roy couldn’t help but feel somewhat out of place and under dressed.

“Is this place a little too big?” Roy questioned the group. Looking up at the massive size of the building.

“You don’t like big things?” Sarah teased as she pressed her body against his back.

“I-I don’t mind” Roy stuttered as he took a step forward. “But seriously is there seating on each floor?”

“What are we waiting for? Let’s find out!” Mimi continued to drag them inside.

The trio passed the large double doors and stopped at the host podium, marveling at the display before them. Behind the podium was a large dinning area with plenty of space between tables. Portholes on an exaggerated scale, with a beautiful view of the ocean just outside. A beautiful mural of an extremely detailed island spanned nearly the entire twenty foot high ceiling. The image was visible to everyone who entered the dining area. Trees, mountains, and even the waves crashing on the island. The image similar to the one on the ticket, but on a much grander scale. The most prominent of details was still visible on the mural, The island was in the shape of a woman lounging at sea.

“Wow that must have taken some time to paint.” Roy marveled.

“She’s beautiful.” Sarah thought as she placed on hand under her chin.

“She’s hungry?” Mimi contributed. “She’s lounging, like she’s full”

Roy and Sarah looked over at Mimi in confusion. Mimi giving them back an equally puzzling stare.

“Doesn’t Islet mean little island?” Mimi shared her thoughts.

“So hungry… little island?” Roy continued.

“She doesn’t look full to me.” Sarah added. She now had Roy’s and Mimi’s attention. “She still got that hungry look on her face like she wants more”

Roy looked back to the personified island mural. Trying hard to see the details the other two have expressed. Staring into her would be eyes. It was a painting, but it always looked like she was watching you wherever you went.

As they continued to observe the mural, They were greeted by a young woman dressed like a cruise ship stewardess. Her sudden appearance startled the trio. Roy suddenly filled with embarrassment at the fact that not one, but all three of them were caught staring up at the ceiling. There attention ripped from the beautiful mural with a few excited words.

“Good afternoon. How is everyone feeling today?” A huge smile plastered on her face.

A wave of relief washed over him as she didn’t mention the staring contest he was in. Before Roy could answer Mimi blurted a response.

“Hungry!”

Roy’s embarrassment was back with a vengeance.

“Oh my!” she laughed like a Disney ride attendant, just a bit too rehearsed. “Well you came to the right place.”

Mimi was bouncing on her toes, exploding with excitement. In a flash she retrieved the ticket from her pocket and presented it to the host. A look of bewilderment ran across the host face as she laid eyes on the ticket. She stared for a moment in silence, for a longer time than felt necessary. Like the ticket was hypnotizing her, or like she was loading special dialog. Mimi was still smiling big, but the uncomfortable silence was starting to drag on. Looking around she was starting to wonder if they came to the right place. She finally landed on Roy, silently asking him to say something.

Roy was starting to wonder if something was wrong, with Mimi’s silent nudging he knew the feeling was mutual.

“Um, excuse-”

“Our lucky winners!” The host exploded cutting Roy off with even more energy than before. Something Roy didn’t think was possible. Taking a step back instinctively at the sudden outburst. Roy and Sarah met eyes, silently assuring that they both saw what they saw. Sarah shrugged. Roy couldn’t shake off the feeling that maybe something was wrong. His senses suddenly heightened.

Mimi on the other hand didn’t even flinch.

“Yes! Yes! That’s us!”

“Oh congratulations! You guys are in for such a treat! The food here is to die for! Our motto at the Hungry Islet is, once you have a taste you won’t be able to stop”

“Sounds addictive.” Roy joked.

The host gave Roy a knowing look and laughed.

“Right this way contest winners!” The host lead the trio to a nearby elevator. Mimi looked back at her friends with a victorious smile, barely holding it together.

“So we aren’t eating with all the other people?” Roy asked.

Mimi had decided that they weren’t walking fast enough and grabbed Roy’s hand pulling him into forced run. The feeling of being dragged was a hard thing to deal with, while trying to maintain his balance. Mimi was excited and wouldn’t release her grip.

“Mimi! I know your excited, but let’s calm down. This is a fancy place after all.”

“Lets go!” She sang as she pulled him along.

Roy then felt as if he was being pulled backwards. Looking back he could see that Sarah had linked arms with Roy. Pulling his arm into the side of her breast. She smiled as she kept in pace with them.

“You too Sarah?”

“I don’t want to be left behind.” She said with a mischievous smile.

His relief of getting into the elevator was short lived, as he expected them to both let go of him. However, neither of the girls were letting go of Roy. Mimi stood to his right with his hand in hers and Sarah doing the same to his left.

DING!

The elevator bell rang as the doors closed. The host stood by the door, selecting the third floor.

“Wow the top huh?” Roy asked.

“Oh yes! The contest winners only get the best!” She said with a large smile. Then with a never ending stare, she continued to look through Roy.

The silence was louder than he had ever felt before. Standing as he was being watched, he had the thought to reach for his phone to break the awkward tension. However he could not reach for his phone as both his hands were still held captive.

“So you ladies must be excited to eat huh?” Roy asked nervously.

He was responded to with silence. Looking over at Mimi and then to Sarah, finding an equally determined face on both of them.

Roy gently squeezed Mimi’s soft and dainty hand. Wondering if she didn’t realize she was still holding on. When she gave him a light squeeze back and didn’t let go, he decided he didn’t mind if she was holding it. Thinking about it, her was smaller than his and very slender. He hadn’t held her hand too much, but felt he knew it very well as of late.

The elevator seemed to crawl up slowly in the silence. Roy was starting to wonder how it came to this. Both his friends seemed to be showing him so much attention today.

Something was starting to hit Roy that maybe he should have realized sooner. Something that he denied outright before, but that now he would have to acknowledge. These two girls were the closest friends he had ever had.

When did more than friendship become a possibility?

As Roy contemplated the possibility of this, a loud sound broke his train of thought.

DING!

“Here we are!” The host lead them to a new room. With just one table and a beautiful view of the city. It was pretty obvious to the trio, this was an exclusive space. With just one table and the decor worked around it.

“Is this like a… special dining area? I didn’t think we would be… alone.” Mimi wondered aloud. Running into the open space and twirling on one leg in excitement.

“Oh yes!” The host answered “Our contest winner not only get a free meal, but you get to dine in our private dining room. But please don’t think we are trying to separate you from the guests downstairs. You will have one on one service with a waiter that will be focused solely on your party. Beyond the nearby hall is a small kitchen with some of our best chefs, cooking just for your group. This is a very special dining area, for our guests who get the most attention.”

“Those who pay more.” Mimi whispered into Roy’s ear.

“Yeah probably.” Roy scoffed.

“Oh my God! Girl, our own chefs! We are princesses!”

“I always knew I was royalty” Mimi joked placing a hand on her chest and looking up at nothing in particular. The royal duo laughed.

The host lead the trio to the table. The room was large for just one party. A single square table with a silver table cloth and four chairs. The center piece was made up of two long candles and a very small one, all three circled by a lei. Roy couldn’t help but feel attacked, but decided there was no way they could have known he was shorter than his two friends. The ceiling sported a similar mural of the lounging goddess. Even at a smaller scale the eyes still appeared to follow his movements. The light was dim but not too dark. The temperature was cool despite the sun shining brightly outside. Large picture type windows lining the far wall, showing a beautiful view of the city from thirty feet up.

“It must look so beautiful during the night.” Mimi gave Roy a smile. “We have to come back here again later.”

Mimi and Sarah had both let go of Roy and sat right next to each other, leaving two seats available to Roy. One next to Mimi and one next to Sarah. Roy froze unsure of what to do.

“Did they do this on purpose?” Roy’s eyes darting between the two.

“Sit down small fry.” Mimi urged him, gesturing to the chair next to her.

“S-sure.” Still unsure of were to sit, trying his best not to make eye contact with either of them.

“Come on boy toy. What are you waiting for?” Sarah patting the chair next to her.

Still not moving. The host then notices the hesitation.

“Are you aware that this is good for up to four people? Were you not expecting another guest?” She questioned. To which Mimi replied with a smile.

“I will be eating for two!”

“Oh I see! Congratulations” After saying that, she looked over at Roy and winked. He knew the implication, but did not correct her. He just nodded and handed her one of the free chairs. Which she stared at and then took it, placing it against the wall. Roy then moved the chair an even amount away from both of them and sat down.

“You three enjoy. A server will be with you shortly” with that the host placed the menus on the table and was on her way towards the elevator.

“What a fancy place. Damn Mimi I cannot believe we are here!” Sarah as she searched the room from her seat.

“Dude! I don’t even remember signing up for this! But I’m glad I did.” Mimi was practically drooling as she flipped through the menu.

“Wait you don’t remember signing up?” Roy questioned. His concerned feelings were starting to creep back into his head.

“Not at all.”

“Doesn’t that concern you?” Roy questioned.

“Roy! This is The Hungry… Islet!” She replied matter-of-factly. “Don’t sweat the small things.”

“This place IS very fancy and plus they used Mimi’s name right?” Sarah questioned.

“I guess that’s true.” Something was nagging in the back of his mind, but decided to let it go for now.

“This is all I have ever wanted! My parents say this place is the best!… It’s also were my father proposed” Mimi looked over at Roy and smiled.

“Aww really?” Sarah already teary-eyed.

“Yeah I know it’s corny, but my mom said, that night was perfect.” She began to blush. Her face in the light candle light smiling at Roy.

Roy had known Mimi for a long time and wasn’t caught off guard by her often, but he could tell she was very happy. Something about her smile was captivating, he found it hard to look away.

“That’s so romantic!” Sarah got very high pitched in her excitement.

“Well no wonder you wanted to see it so bad.” Roy realized returning her smile.

“Yes, but not just that!” Mimi looked embarrassed to continue, but did so at high volume. “I heard the food is practically orgasmic!”

“Well… It WAS romantic.” Sarah said rolling her eyes.

“I heard they have all kinds of food here! Steak, pasta, seafood! Seafood Roy!”

Roy let out a loud laugh.

“I know you love your seafood.”

Without another thought she was already nose deep in the menu. Sarah gave Roy a look and she did the same.

“Good afternoon, contest winners!” A voice called from the open elevator doors.

A very tall woman with a with flawless bronzed skin began crossing the distance from the elevator to their table. A smirk like smile across her face, as she eyed the three with a predator like gaze. Her like blue eyes peered straight into Roy. Roy felt he had to straighten his back in her presence, she was beautiful and tall with a nice figure. She walked with authority towards the table. Matching the theme of the restaurant, she dressed like a wealthy woman on vacation. Showing a lot of skin, like she was ready to lounge near a pool and never get in. A cute red tube top, exposed midriff and a floral swim suit wrap to cover her bikini bottom. Wedge high heels, sun glasses tucked into her deep cleavage, Gold hoop ear rings and even a tropical flower in her hair long thick dark green hair. Despite her vacation-like attire she had a serious air about her. Upon her entry every attendant in the room, suddenly became even more poised and active. The chef that was moments ago visibly waiting for orders, suddenly started doing dishes.

“Dang girl you smell that?” Sarah whispered to Mimi “She smells like the boss just got in.”

“All I smell is money.” Whispered back Mimi.

“Shh! Don’t be rude guys.” Roy whispered into their conversation, shushing them before she arrived.

Once she had reached the table, Roy couldn’t believe how far he had to look up to meet her gaze. He knew she was tall when she entered, but now that she was closer, saying she was tall was an understatement. Roy tried not to stare at the amazon-like woman, but didn’t want to be rude so he smiled at the nearly seven foot tall woman. The smell of her tropical scented perfume enveloped the entire table.

She eyed all three of them one by one. Finally landing on Mimi.

“Ahh. You must be Mimi. Congratulations young lady.” She spoke in a clear and somewhat seductive voice.

“Thank you! I am so happy I won!” Mimi beamed up at this woman, her neck almost at a ninety degree angle. You have no idea, this is like making my day. Heck maybe even my year!”

She then looked over at Roy and Sarah and gave them a smile.

“These are my friends Roy and Sarah” Mimi introduced “Can you believe Roy has never heard of this place? We have to make a believer out of him.”

Roy shook his head with a smile. All the while hoping he wasn’t blushing.

“It’s nice to meet all of you! My name is Laka. I hope you three have enjoyed my restaurant so far”

The trio stopped breathing for a second as they began to realize the company they were in.

“Best first impression ever!” Roy blurted. “I am already loving this place!”

“It is so fancy in here!” Sarah added. “By the way adorbs name!”

“I cannot wait to eat! It smells so good in here.” Mimi said honestly. “I am so hungry.”

The woman laughed at how quickly they changed their tone of voices, as they talked over one another.

“You are such a lively group!” She laughed in a reserved way, with a slight and gentle smile. “I love being around young people like you three. So much energy! Makes my place seem like a fun place to be. Have you all been friends for a long time?”

“Oh yeah, years even!” Sarah Proclaimed.

“I can see it. You three seem very close and excited to be here.”

“Especially Mimi!” Sarah called her out. “She loves this place.”

“I do!” She sang. “I can’t even lie about that. So many reasons to like it.”

“I like people like you Mimi! So hungry for life… and the food it seems?”

Roy and Sarah could not hold back their laughter as Mimi began to blush, grinning big as she could not deny her one weakness.

“Well Mimi, I want you to know, there is nothing wrong with that. I started with nothing, just a love for fun and I learned somethings and met some nice people and now I’m here. It was my hunger that drove me, I always wanted what I wanted and I wouldn’t stop till I got it. It all just starts with a little curiosity, then a taste, then… really who could stop you?”

The large woman then leaned in close to Mimi, getting close enough to peck her on the cheek. The trio was once again reminded of her height difference. Laka towered over Mimi and when she got closer it was even more apparent. Mimi froze as Laka now had everyone’s full attention.

“A woman should always be hungry for more. Always push for more, you can have whatever you want. Don’t give up little Mimi.”

Mimi froze for a moment as Laka pulled away.

“Thank you so much.” Mimi smiled at her kind words. “That means a lot to me.”

“I just want you to know Mimi, as the contest winner, even though we picked you at random. I believe you were fated to be chosen for this.”

“To get free food?” Mimi wondered.

“No, no!” Laka laughed as she knelt down, getting to Mimi’s eye level “I think us meeting was preordained. I think you were meant to meet me. Maybe we can be friends… I see myself in you. Maybe I can make… your wishes come true.”

Laka said those last words very slowly. She then smiled and gave Mimi a wink. It was quick, a blink-and-you-miss-it moment. Roy noticed the small gesture. It wasn’t the wink that worried him, but the effect it seemed to have on Mimi. Her face was suddenly drained of all color, she was motionless and lacked any sign of emotion. Like a memory was coming back and she was lost in it.

“Mimi?” Roy started.

“Roy, was it?” Laka interrupted.

“Oh! Yes ma’am?” Roy did his best not to look away from her, though he was worried about his friend.

“I am so sorry to delay your meal, but may we please have a quick survey before you eat?” She asked politely. “I am so sorry to ask you such a thing. I know that must be the most annoying thing to hear before you eat. Everyone hates it but, it will only take a moment”

“Oh you want me to do it?” Roy wondered why he was chosen for this.

“I just want an honest opinion from someone who has never heard of this place. It’s a rare opportunity for me you see.” She wore the slightest pout face.

“Oh I mean. Sure, I don’t mind. Is that okay guys?” Roy looked to his friends for confirmation.

“Huh?” Mimi looked up as if she was suddenly awoke from a deep sleep. Though her spaced-out expression didn’t change. “Oh yeah sure, Small fry.”

“Mimi are you okay?” Sarah finally noticed Mimi’s lack of emotion. “Girl do you need to go to the bathroom?”

“If you need to freshen up, the powder room is right over there” She said pointing with her entire hand to the near by hallway.

Sarah helped Mimi to her feet. A worried look on her face as Mimi was struggling to stand.

“That’s a great idea! We won’t be long” She forced a smile and apologized. “Roy go ahead and take care of the survey, Mimi might feel better after she uses the restroom.”

She gave Roy a reassuring smile, then lead Mimi to the restrooms. There pace was like that of a doctor helping an elderly patient.

“I should probably check-” Roy started to stand.

“Men aren’t allowed in the ladies room. Lets let the ladies handle that. Meanwhile you and I can knock out this survey. Is that okay Small fry?” Laka joked as she pulled Mimi’s seat closer and sat in it. Even sitting she towered over him. Crossing her legs she gave Roy a look up and down. She took in all of him, slowly working her way up to his eyes, taking in all the details.

“That’s what she called you right?”

Roy slowly sat back down, his mind was still on Mimi.

“Uh… yeah she does call me that sometimes.”

Laka then turned to her side and signaled for someone. In no time at all a pink-haired woman walked up. To Roy’s surprise, it was the same woman that gave his the ticket earlier that day. Walking up and handing Laka a pen, and clipboard with a piece of paper attached to it. The pink haired woman looked at Roy and gave him a wink. Roy caught a glimpse of mouth movement, but couldn’t discern anything from it. With a squint Roy stared at the mystery woman, but she just simply smiled as she walked out of sight.

Roy’s mind started to wonder if this was in fact a preordained meeting. The uneasy feeling now here to stay.

“That is such a cute nickname she has for you.” She said while scanning the paper on the clipboard.

“Uh, yeah. We are just close like that I guess.”

Roy turned to see where the pink-haired woman had gone, but there was no sign of her. Looking around there was no sign of anyone. The waiters and attendants were all gone. No sign of any life besides Roy and Laka. He was alone in this fancy dining room with her.

“I bet you are, with a pet name like that. She must really like you. I wonder what it’s in reference to?” She said now biting the end of the pen and raising her eyebrows as she made eye contact.

Roy knew what she meant and tried to correct her as quickly as possible.

“Short! Me! It’s because I’m short. In height!” Tripping over his words as he tried to rush an explanation.

Laka threw her head back and gave another hearty laugh.

“I’m so sorry. It is just so fun to mess with you. Ah! Young people.” She began writing something down on the clipboard.

He considered questioning her age as she seemed about the same age if not just a few years older, but decided against it.

“Is this… part of the survey?”

“The survey!” She threw her hands up and alternated her crossed legs. “Alright! Lets get to it.”

“Yes thank you.”

“How did you find out about The Hungry…” She stared during the pause. “Islet?”

“Uh, Mimi told me! So word of mouth through a satisfied customer.” Forcing a smile.

“I see! What a sweet girl.” She checked something off on her paper. “And did she invite you?”

“Yes she did”

“And the other girl, is that her sister or maybe a cousin she lives with?”

“Oh uh, no that’s her best friend”

“A friend…” She wrote that down and paused. “Her friend, Sarah. Is that right? She’s not related to Mimi or you. No doubt she is single, the way she was holding your hand.”

Roy’s eyes shot open wide at the mention of what happened in the elevator. His face starting to burn as his back involuntarily straightened.

“How did she know that?” He thought to himself, trying desperately to remember if the elevator had a camera. “Probably hidden, of course she’d be watching us.”

Laka’s smile fell off her face. She then began flipping through papers on the clipboard. Roy was surprised at how many pages she flipped through. It seemed like too many. When the clipboard was brought over it appeared to only have a single page, but Laka seemed to be flipping through a novel.

“I see…” She squinted as she continued to read.

“Is everything okay?”

“I sure hope so.” She said under her breath. “A platonic... shower?”

“What was that!?”

“It appears you two are closer than I originally thought.”

“Who?”

She continued to read leaving Roy’s questions unanswered. Roy sat in silence and worry.

“Was that all the questions? I mean we haven’t even eaten yet so what more can I really give you?”

“I have a few more” She said holding one finger up, still not looking up.

“So Roy, tell me how close would you say you are with your friend Sarah” Still flipping through pages.

“How is that relevant to the-”

“Just making conversation young man. I just lost my place is all. No need to be shy. Don’t worry I won’t judge you. I just assumed you and Mimi were an item and then I saw your sexy little friend there.”

“Why would you assume that? You only just met us.”

“I guess that’s true. I shouldn’t make assumptions. You know what happens when you assume.”

“Yeah that’s true…” Roy wanted this to be over. He felt like his dirty laundry was on display and wanted desperately to put it away. “So how about those questions?”

“I found my questions” She turned the clipboard with a smile, revealing a single page with only a few lines. She quickly turned it back before Roy could read them.

“So next question is a hypothetical scenario. If you had a favorite restaurant, one that served your absolute favorite food. Pretend that this particular meal was in very short supply. No place served it, just your favorite restaurant. So you eat there everyday, it’s great. Then suddenly a new one opened up that serves the same type of food would you try it?”

“Well… yeah. If my favorite meal is in short supply, then it might be worth a try”

“I see.” She wrote something down. “Now let’s say that both shops are going out of business and your continued patronage would determine the fate of the shops in question. What would you do? Support the place you started or the new one?”

“Oh wow that’s tough. I can’t eat at both?”

“Both?” She raised an eyebrow. “Oh my, perhaps you could. Well, lets just say in this particular instance, you can only pick one.”

“Only one huh?” Roy was starting to feel guilty. “I… don’t think I could choose.”

“Then both businesses fail.” She gave Roy a serious look, her blue eyes locked on his. Then began laughing out loud. “Don’t look so serious Roy it’s just a survey”

“I guess so…” The guilt of the non-existent shops staring to weigh on him.

“Alright good answers so far. We can definitely use these answers. Next question, another hypothetical scenario. Let’s say you are a professional chef at a five star restaurant, like this one” She raised her arms proudly. “Let’s also say, that your food was amazing, people loved your meals! People would come from all around the world to eat your cooking. Now let’s say that you discovered a secret ingredient that made your food even more irresistible. Having already found fame and success, would you share that secret ingredient with the world? Or keep it to yourself?”

Roy paused and was confused by the how intrusive this question was. Taken a back, but decided to answer if it meant this would be over.

“I suppose so. I mean why not make people even happier?”

“Interesting…” She scribbled again. Then she directed her pale blue eyes onto his yet again. “Now what if the secret ingredient… was you?”

“…What?” Roy felt his lips beginning to curl. Thinking she had to be joking at this point.

“I said…” She now had a dead serious stare. One that chilled Roy to the bone, his smile gone in an instant. “Would you feed yourself to someone to make them happy?”

The question hung in the air for what felt like an eternity.

“I’m sorry… I don’t know if I can answer…”

“You can’t?” She slammed the clipboard on the table. Roy flinched but did not waste his chance, glancing over at it. Surprised to see not only was it a single page on the clipboard, but it was now blank. Not even the notes he saw her write were present. Starting to panic he leaned farther back into his chair.

“You have been in the literal jaws of death several times, in just two days. You felt something special six times out of the seven. Do you know what you felt all those time? Acceptance.”

Roy searched the room and found it strangely empty. Not a single attendant. Looking over at the nearby hall, no sign of his friends, waiters, chefs or even the pink haired girl. He felt completely alone. Something about her words were ringing true to him, though he didn’t know why.

“What are you talking about?… The jaws of death?”

“Think about it, Small fry. Doesn’t that seem familiar to you?” She stood, reminding Roy of her impressive height. Looking down on him felt much more menacing than before. He had been watching her the entire time, but it felt like she had switched places with someone who was a lot less friendly.

“Little Roy toy.” She bent down and stroked his face gently. “Doesn’t it feel normal to look up at a beautiful woman. Why is that? Are your friends that much taller than you? Or did you perhaps shrink… into a tiny form, a tiny little person?”

“Shrink?… Tiny? What is that-” A feeling like getting hit in the back of his head and it was starting to come back to him. Roy couldn’t move as his memories were coming back.

“The vacation with Mimi’s family was canceled… but why was it canceled? … No.” His fingers started trembling uncontrollably. “That couldn’t have happened, it must have been a dream. Stuff like that doesn’t happen in real life. P-people don’t just shrink...”

All she did was smile, raising one eyebrow.

“Do you remember being in that sandwich? Mimi couldn’t hear you. You knew it was over. Do you Remember?”

Standing up, Roy took a step back. His flight-or-fight going full tilt.

“N-no that didn’t actually happen. I am a normal sized guy.”

“Well let’s be honest, you are a little short for a guy, even at your full height.” She said bluntly.

“I think… It’s time we leave.” Heading towards the hall, his friends walked down moments ago. At a quick paced speed-walk, Roy was trying to leave without running. Stopping moments before he slammed into a solid wall. Looking along the wall to find any sort of hallway opening. Then looking back at the elevator, finding nothing at all. Just a large room with no exits say for some large portholes and a single table. No means of entering or leaving this room. Roy stared back at the large woman.

“What the Hell is going on? Mimi and Sarah-”

“They are fine. I only removed the entry way to the hallway. They don’t even know anything has happened.” She said matter-of-factly.

“Did you do this? How are you doing these things?” Roy squinted in disbelief.

“Well, I’m am and I’m not. I am simply controlling this dream space, you see”

“Dream space? Does that mean this isn’t real? It’s like a dream? But this feels so real.”

“That is more or less true. This place is just a dream, though yes, it will all feel real.”

Roy was starting to calm down, but he remained on guard.

“However, your friends and I are as real as you are. They aren’t a dream versions of Mimi and Sarah, they are the real Mimi and Sarah. We are all using a shared consciousness. It’s like a four-way call.” She said with a smile.

Roy looked around the completely sealed room again.

“I am not sure if I believe you. I mean… come on! That’s a hard thing to convince someone of, but if it’s true… figures the only time we win a contest like that it’s in a dream.”

Laka let out a laugh.

“Yes, well I wanted to make this dream fun before…” Her blue gaze drifted out the window, seeking out something far away. “…Before we get started.”

“Started?”

Her gaze returned to Roy.

“We will get to that in a sec.” Lifting one finger.

“The situation I mentioned to you before, is real. You are still about three to four inches in reality. So yes… Unfortunately for you, that will be your reality when you wake up.”

“I see… I do have many memories of being small. So I believe that. This is a dream you said?”

“Yes, sorry for the theatrics. I just had to get those effected by my little spell together”

“Effected?”

“You have been teasing these girls for so long Roy. That is actually why you are here. I have brought you three together so you all understand the rules and what to expect. I thought maybe you’d figure it out on your own, you are a gamer aren’t you? But we simply don’t have forever so I had to intervene. Let’s start with making one of them a happy girl. You’re going to have to choose by the way.”

“Choose?”

“Choose, young man. Pick one. Unfortunately, You can only be eaten once… probably.” She walked over to the large window and looked out over the city. “I am sure you have noticed. They are getting hungry. Well, they are getting even more hungry. They already wanted you, even before I showed up, but now that we are down this path the urge to eat you will only grow and grow, haven’t you noticed? You may not recognize them if you wait too long.”

“How… How do you know all this? Have you been watching us?”

“When she approached me. She begged for a way to make her dream come true. I explained the game, the rules,… the consequences to her and she still said yes. I was a little surprised not many people would be okay with eating another person.”

“You’re telling me someone wanted something bad enough… to eat someone… to eat me?” Roy tried to piece the cryptic speech together into making sense. The reality of what she was saying was starting to settle in. The more he began to understand the more it began to feel like he was being stabbed in the heart.

“Not just that young man, you have to go in willingly.”

He didn’t think this could get any stranger, but was proven so wrong.

“None of this was making sense. Who would do this? Are you telling me you shrank me?”

“Would you call a weapons dealer a murderer? Or the one that fires the gun? I didn’t pull the trigger on your situation, young man.”

“I guess,… but you provided the method?”

“I am able to do that, yes”

“Then who did you-”

“I’m sorry Roy but, That goes against my client confidentiality. I cannot reveal that information.” She teased while on finger on her lips in a shushing motion.

“But is it someone I know?” His eyes began to water.

Laka simply smirked and lifted both arms and feigned ignorance.

“Okay you can’t tell me, but if I need to go… willingly, then it has to be someone who knows me and thinks they can convince me.”

Laka couldn’t stop the smile from forming on her lips.

“You ARE smart. That is exactly what they told me.”

“Why do I have to… willingly?”

“It’s just the way the spell works”

“Spell?” Roy walked back to his seat doing his best to absorb all the information he just received, finally falling back into his seat with a slump. His head in hanging low. “If what you are saying is true… Someone used a spell to shrink me and they want to eat me? I need to be willing to be eaten for this person to get a wish. You provided the spell to this mystery person. Then you brought Mimi, Sarah and me into this shared dream to explain that my friends are being effected by the spell? A spell that is effecting them to the point of becoming ravenously hungry… for me?”

“Yes! You are as smart as I was lead to believe. Great job following along.” She turned to Roy and clapped silently.

“This is… very hard to believe…”

“I must say though, you were nearly eaten many times already. I thought you might have wanted to be.”

“Before…” The heat in his chest starting to take over. “That was before I knew… Before I knew I was just fuel for their desires. Do I mean nothing to them? Don’t they care if I…”

“It’s just the way these spells work. In order to get what you want you must sacrifice someone through willing consumption.”

The tall woman walked back to the table and placed something upon it. The disbelief faded as he laid eyes on the glass object. One he had seen a glimpse of before. It was an empty bottle.

Taking hold of it and turning it to read it’s label. It read:

WISH POTION

Roy scoffed.

“It’s not very creative” Looking up at Laka’s solemn expression as a single tear rolled down his cheek. “The name, I mean.”

He continued to read:

CONSUME ENTIRE CONTENTS OF BOTTLE FOR THE SPELL TO COME INTO EFFECT. BY CONSUMING THE WISH POTION, YOU WILL BECOME THE “WISH MAKER”. THE SINGLE INGREDIENT NEEDED FOR SOMEONE TO RECEIVE A WISH*. UPON CONSUMING, WISH POTION ALLOW TWENTY FOUR HOURS FOR THE SHRINKING PROCESS TO TAKE EFFECT. RESULTS MAY VARY IN REGARDS TO TIME NEEDED FOR SHRINKING. ONCE THE PROCESS HAS BEGUN, IT CANNOT BE REVERSED-

The bottle nearly fell out of his hands as he read those last words. Not wanting to read anymore he placed the bottle back on the table.

“So uh…” His mind still racing. “I drank this at some point?”

“Looking into my records…” She said, grabbing the blank clipboard and flipping through the pages again. “I can see that you had it with dinner a few nights ago. It seems as though the person in question, poured the Wish Potion into a drink you had.”

Roy threw his hands in the air defeated.

“So this person tricked me… What now? Did you just tell me this so I can just get eaten already?”

“I wanted to warn you, Roy. As drinking that potion has dangerous effects on not only you but everyone around you.”

“What? In what way?”

“By consuming the potion, as you read, you have made yourself a Wish Maker! You are tiny and easy to consume. If you are consumed, willingly, the one who consumes you will be given one wish! Though limited in it’s abilities, you can imagine how coveted this spell is. So to protect the power of the wish, the wish in question must be desired by both parties, the consumer and the consumed. If you are eaten by someone and you don’t want to be eaten, there will be no wish granted.”

“Well that’s great.” He began to smile. “I just have to not want to get eaten.”

“Young man…” She stared hard at Roy and said nothing for an uncomfortably long time. A knowing look on her accusatory gaze. “You want to be eaten. We both know that.”

“… W-what?”

“Six times Roy. Six times you have almost been eaten and each time you accepted it. Two different girls and you wanted to be in their stomachs. Normally not wanting to be eaten, is a perfect way to defend that wish. However, with you, the desire to be eaten is something no one has to plant in you. Your what they call a one in a million Wish Maker.”

Roy could feel the burning on his face. She knew his desires in those moments and he couldn’t deny it.

“Well…” Roy began to rustle his hair “be that as it may, I can still avoid being eaten right? I will just live as a small person… forever right?”

“That’s not all, there is a nasty side effect for the Wish Potion. If the Wish Maker is not consumed there are consequences. Let’s say the Wish Maker or the consumer get cold feet. The wish maker will begin to effect those around them like a disease. The desire to eat you will spread to others. People who know nothing of the wish will find you irresistible. The scent of you, will drive those around you crazy. In a few more days you won’t even be able to go outside, as passerby will be overcome with the desire to consume your tiny body. The effect getting stronger and stronger… until…”

“Until?”

“Well Roy, there isn’t much time left here, in this space” She lifted her arms, gesturing to the walls around her. “I might as well just show you what will happen if you wait too long.”

With that, she stood up and began walking to the elevator.

“W-wait! What should I do?”

She did not stop or even look back as she headed to the elevator which had reappeared at some point. The doors opening before she even got to it. Upon entering she turned to Roy.

“You must choose my boy”

“…But”

“Oh and take the stairs!” She winked as the doors began to close.

DING!

Gone from his sight, but what remained was so many questions with no answers.

“How can I choose now?”

He wanted nothing more than this dream to be over. His head hanging low as he contemplated the weight of her words. Lifting his head, eyes drifting to the city outside the nearby port window. These last few hours, if they were hours, were spent as a normal sized human. He had to smile as he missed being his normal size.

Standing, Roy walked over to get a better look. Gazing down at the dream city, he could see no motion. Cars stopped at red lights that never changed. People standing in the streets in mid conversation never finishing. It was obvious to him, this dream would be coming to an end soon.

Roy stood in awe at how detailed this realistic dream world was. Although seemingly limited to the range of the dreamers, if you don’t look too close you’d never notice. Roy’s mind started to wonder as to how this could be used in the future.

“Roy!” Roy snapped back in the direction of the restroom hall, which was once again existed. To see Sarah running over to him.

“What’s wrong?” Roy grabbed her shoulders and searched her panicked eyes.

“It’s… Mimi!” She spoke slowly with red eyes and labored breathing.

“What about her? Is she okay?”

Not wanting to wait for the answer he turned for the restroom.

“No wait!”

BOOM!

A loud crash could be heard through out the building. The glass on all the nearby glass became cracked and the lights flickered. An unseen force knocked Roy onto his knees. Large cracks were starting to form along the wall. It’s starting point, being the hall Sarah came from.

“Mimi!” Roy called as he rose to his feet.

Before he could go any further. He felt as the floor started to tilt in the direction of the restrooms. Stopping for a moment, but he decided to press forward scared for his friend. He couldn’t move, turning to see as Sarah holding his arm.

“Roy no!” She stared sad eyes into his. “She’s not here anymore.”

Roy stared. Before he could ask anything the building began to shake.

BOOM! CRASH!

Knocked off his feet once again as rubble and dust fell from the now cracked walls and ceiling. The lights flickering with each rock of the building. Some going out permanently.

“What’s going on? Some kind of earthquake?” The fear starting to rise in Roy. Despite knowing this was a dream it felt very real. The danger felt as real as ever.

“Roy! She’s out side we have to hurry!”

“Outside? But how? Did she jump out the window?”

“Something like that. I’ll explain once we get out.” Sarah grabbed Roy’s face and stared hard into his worried expression. “I promise you she is outside.”

With that the two headed down the hall to the stairway and out before the building crumbled any further. Clearing the building before large chunks of the ceiling crashed onto the floor below. The two rushed outside as a dust cloud also escaped with great force, nearly knocking them off their feet. The dust cloud obscured their vision and made breathing hard. As the dust settled Roy got a better look at the now quiet building. It did not completely collapse, though the beautiful building they entered was now in shambles. Tables were destroyed, silverware was tossed about and the painted walls were cracked if not completely fallen over. The prestige of The Hungry Islet was unrecognizable as if hit with a sizable earthquake.

Roy had to stare at how much damage was done in such a short amount of time.

“Sarah are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” She spoke while trying to catch her breath. “I hope everyone made it outside before… All the people inside! Where did they go?” Sarah looked around to find a full parking lot and no people anywhere”

“Where is Mimi?” Roy searched. The two decided to circle the building searching for any sign of their friend.

“R-RRR…” It was weak, but loud. Like a loud speaker in another room. He immediately recognized that voice. It was Mimi. His heart dropped as a new energy fueled him. Roy and Sarah ran around the building and stopped in their tracks.

They could not believe what they were seeing. Approaching a crowd made of nearly all the restaurant guests. They stood like mannequins, frozen in similar disbelief as they crowded around the debris of the building. Chunks of concrete and steel lay in a large pile, like a landslide pilled up along the building. The debris only partially covering a massive flesh colored object. On the outskirts of the gathered crowed, even at that distance Roy could tell it was Mimi. The mass of flesh, even under the debris, dust and concrete, was undeniably Mimi. Though something was clearly wrong. Mimi was once again much larger than Roy.

The reason her voice was so loud was obvious. Mimi had grown to enormous size. She caused the building to partially collapse, seemingly with her growth alone. She caused so much destruction on her own. Even in this new dangerous size, Roy couldn’t help but worry for her. Laying against the side of the building, curled up like she just sleeping was his best friend. Covered in dirt and debris. He hated to see her like this. Clenching his fist as the anger started to build at this made up world. He wanted this to be over he wanted to go back. He wanted to help Mimi, but didn’t know how.

“RRR… ROY?” Her voice was louder than he had ever heard it before.

Taking one hesitant step forward. Such a mixture of emotions swirled in his head. He was scared for her, but at the same time scared of her. The pile of building debris began to shift with her as she stirred. Large cinder blocks rolled down her body as she moved, crashing on the ground. Her giant form shaking off building parts with simple movements.

“What is going on?” Said someone in the crowd.

“Is that a person?” Said someone else.

Sarah grabbed Roy’s hand. Roy turned to see her concerned expression. The two silently agreed to walk toward their giant friend.

“I don’t know what’s going on Roy… but we have to help her.” Her eyes starting to well up at the impossible sight of her now giant friend.

“Y-yeah.” Still nervous, he walked forward.

“Mims!” Sarah called out cautiously.

“SARAH!?” Boomed the giant woman’s voice. Her body twitching again. Sending more ruble and thick concrete rolling off her and crashing into the ground around the spectators.

Many of the people gawking, covered their ears as she spoke, some even taking steps back. The look of absolute horror and fascination on many of their faces. The sound of rubble echoed in the empty lot, as it fell off of her. The crashes and echos continued as she sat up. Her giant human face now visible, many gasps could be heard as they realized what they were looking at was indeed human.

The people began to murmurer as she rose, Some even starting to panic.

“Mimi are you okay!?” Roy approached.

“Cover your eyes!” Sarah scolded to Roy and the crowd.

Realizing that their friend was completely naked, Roy covered his eyes as quickly as he could. Much like when he shrunk, Mimi’s clothes did not go through the same change.

“I mean at the moment, that is the least of our concerns.” Roy admitted.

“ROY!” Another boom in volume. The giant woman rubbed her eyes with one hand and dusting her rubble filled hair with the other. “Where are you?”

Her partially exposed body was on full display for all the restaurant attendees that were brave enough to stick around, though it did not seem to bother her. Many of them seemed entranced by the new giant. Each minute movement sent small tremors under their feet.

She simply blinked as if waking up from a nap. Her form towered over the small group yet she acted as if this was normal. Stretching her arms and neck.

“D-do you think she knows?” Roy questioned while still partially covering his eyes.

“I… I don’t think so. Also…” Sarah squinted while searching Mimi “Something seems off about her.”

“Maybe we should keep trying to talk to her?”

“Oh right… Maybe we can get through to her.” Sarah cautiously and slowly walked close enough to put a hand on her knee. “Mims! Are you okay!?”

Without any confirmation, she simply lifted her head and let out an enormous roar. The sound was deafening. Everyone now reacting to the sound, something as simple as a yawn was louder than the car alarms she just triggered.

Then in the silence after her outburst, came an equally loud roar. Once again people were covering there ears or holding their heads, as a loud gurgle filled the air. Eyes still closed she placed a hand on her stomach.

She hunched over as if in pain. Roy and Sarah could see the pain clearly on her now giant dirt covered face. Growing more concerned Roy also stepped closer to her knee

“ROY!” She moaned in pain while saying his name.

“Mimi! I’m right here!” Roy called “Do you not realize whats going on? Wake up!”

“ROY?” She gave a sleepy smile, her grayish eyes barely open. A chill ran down his spine as he could see himself reflected in her giant half-opened eyes. Something didn’t seem right. Aside from her size difference, Roy knew in that moment, she wasn’t herself. Freezing up in her gaze. Expecting to see the happy look, he had seen so many times in her eyes. What stared back at him was a blank slate.

Her large hand began slowly coming down towards Roy. He remembered how gently she would handle him with her dainty hands when he was small. However Roy couldn’t help but think about what Laka said to him. He felt hesitant to be in her hands but, in that moment he decided not to run.

To their surprise her giant hand went right over his head and grabbed a woman out of the crowd of watchers. As he dust covered hands wrapped around the woman she let out a screech.

The crowd erupted with screams and shouts. As if broken from a spell, many of the remaining crowd disbursed. Some too frightened to move at all. Mimi gently lifted the flailing woman. She screamed and desperately tried to escape Mimi’s clutches. She was no match for Mimi’s strength, fruitlessly beating her digits. Mimi did not seem to notice her panic and simply smiled at her.

“Mimi no that’s not me! Hey!”

“Let her go Mims!”

The duo’s shouts were drowned out by the shouting of the bystanders and the woman in hand. Mimi’s eyes once again closed.

With ease she lifted the innocent woman to her cheek and began rubbing her against it. The woman suddenly fell silent. Still trembling but she stayed quiet in hope it might save her life. Not quite sure what Mimi wanted.

GURGLE!

Another muffled, though still loud growl could be heard. Which caused everyone that remained to freeze. Suddenly the trembling woman was splashed in the face by something. Basketball sized tears fell from Mimi’s closed eyes. Hitting the floor like a watermelon dropped from two stories. The drenched woman looked up to see her captor was crying with her eyes closed.

“I-I’M SO SORRY SMALL FRY”

The woman’s earlier panic was nothing compared to the frightened scream that followed. Mimi licked her lips and opened her mouth wide, lifting the poor woman above her open mouth.

“Mimi no!” Roy desperately began trying to climb up her knee.

Sarah covered her mouth and watched in horror.

Mimi continued as if no one else mattered. With little hesitation she dropped the woman. Free falling and flailing ten feet before she landed in Mimi’s open mouth. Hitting her tongue with a wet splat. She then closed her mouth. Sealing the poor bystander inside her.

“MMM…” Without moving she moaned in delight.

Mimi’s closed lips suddenly burst apart as the woman forced herself partway free. Reaching for anything she could to help pull the rest of her out. She was breathing hard and her movements were slowed. Grasping blindly, her hair matted to her head. She was soaked with Mimi’s spit. Before she could rest a large finger pushed her slowly back in.

“NO ESCAPING” She said muffled with a full mouth, smiling with her free hand on her cheek.

Roy still unable to get her attention, watching as Mimi enjoyed the poor woman like candy. Moaning and shifting the contents of her mouth, until finally.

GULP!

As easily as swallowing a pill the woman’s muffled screams could no longer be heard. Picked at random in the crowd, and now sent deep inside Mimi. Those brave enough and those to afraid to move, watched as the lump in her throat traveled downward into Mimi’s stomach.

Sarah dropped to her knees, then collapsed to the ground.

“Sarah! Sarah no. It’s okay. It’s not real. None of this is real!” Like shouting at a wall he got no reaction from his friend. On his knees he grabbed her shoulders. “It’s a dream Sarah. You’ll see it will be over soon. All I have to do is let her eat me and it’ll be over.”

Roy stared as his friend and let out a sigh of relief as she was only unconscious. She sat motionless and still. Roy watched as the people began to run in different directions. Some to their cars, some just trying to get away as fast as possible.

“ROY.” Mimi moaned his name. Tears starting to well up around her closed eyes. “WHERE ARE YOU?”

The ground trembled as she shifted and put weight on one foot. Roy wrapped his arms around Sarah to protect her as he watched the giantess. He had spent so much time around his friend with this size difference, but it was still frightening to him.

Her large naked form bending down on one knee, she easily reached and grabbed another innocent bystander. This man wasted no time punching his captors fingers, however it did him no good as she ignored his struggle. She easily tossed him into her waiting mouth. After a moment of bliss flavor sucking she swallowed him whole. Another innocent person swallowed by his friend. It was a dream but Roy felt the guilt rise within.

“MMM…” She let out another satisfying moan that shook the nearby car windows.

“Mimi!” Roy made his way to her knee again and began pounding on it. “It’s me Roy! I’m right here! Please stop!”

“ROY?” The giantess seemed to react to him. The groggy expression still on her face as she craned her head down and squinted. Her large form creating a shadow around him. His face once again reflected in her massive eyes. Hoping to end this Roy stepped forward reaching for her nose. But all hope of making contact faded as distant sirens snapped her back into her trance-like state. Dust and rubble fell from her as she reached her tremendous full height. Roy could only stand and watch. The more she rose the more she didn’t appear to be herself.

Roy braced himself as she began giving chase to the fleeing restaurant goers. Her large foot rushed past him, with incredible speed. The wind kicked up from just one step nearly knocked him off his feet.

BOOM!

BOOM!

With just a few steps she had already put quite a distance between them.

“I need to think. I have to stop her.” His eyes back on the motionless Sarah. Dropping back to one knee, he did his best to communicate with her. “I’m so sorry Sarah I am going to fix this. I will Stop Mimi don’t worry. It will all be over soon.”

Guilt raking his mind, he knew he had to leave her behind and stop Mimi as soon as possible. Even if it was just a dream he needed to end this. With as much care as he could he lifted Sarah. Placing her in an undamaged car. With one last sorrowful look he closed the door and left her to rest.

Looking around the parking lot he could see people abandoning their cars. A nearby van had it’s door open. Wasting no time he ran up to the van and checked for the keys. To his surprise they were still in the ignition.

Looking up, he could see she was putting some distance between them. A slow walk for her might as well have been two blocks away. The destruction she caused just moving was apparent from the sound of each step causing echos throughout the city. He could hear people screaming in fear of the hungry giantess.

“ROY” She droned on as she chased random people.

Glancing over to where he left Sarah.

“I’m sorry Sarah”

Roy slammed the door and started the engine. Changing gears and smashing the gas, he charged in her direction. The path to his giant friend was obvious. Leaving a trail of destruction where she went. Abandoned cars littered the road, some smashed by Mimi’s blind chase. Roy couldn’t let this continue. Even if it was all fake it hurt him to see his friend this way.

BOOM!

BOOM!

He was gaining on her. His friend coming into view. The roar of the engine reminding him of the realism of this dream. Before he knew it he was right on her heels.

BOOM!

BOOM!

Doing his best to stay in between her steps. The road was clear not a car on the road anymore. It seems all those that saw her either drove away or left their cars where they were. He gripped the wheel tightly as he had only ever gone as fast on city roads before. Each red light he passed mad him wince, but he couldn’t slow down now.

“Almost there”

BOOM!

“Almost there”

BOOM!

He had never reached this speed outside of a video game. This dream world felt like real life. The speed was causing his stomach to drop. The fear on being stepped on by his friend was causing him to panic. Trying his best to maintain his speed and stay out from under her. He knew what he had to do. Not knowing if he would have had the courage to do such a thing in real life.

BOOM!

“Almost… Sorry Mimi!”

BOOM!

Roy could feel his eyes aching, as he forced himself to watch her footsteps. He strained to get the rhythm of her steps. Gripping the wheel tighter and tighter.

BOOM!

BOOM!

“Now!”

He had a clear shot. Just as her foot was about to drop he slammed on the gas and crashed directly into her heel. The front of the car immediately crumpled. Roy lost control of the car as it spun out. Roy’s head was thrust forward hitting the steering wheel. The car continued to spin before hitting a parked car and stopping.

“AHH!” The giantess screamed and took a few more pained steps.

The windshield was smashed but held together. Roy kept his eyes shut, hoping to not lose his sight in the crash. As the car finally came to a stop Roy found it hard to open his eyes. His hands trembled but he did not release the steering wheel. He had never experienced a car crash and didn’t even know if this dream world could accurately replicate one. However real or not, he found himself unable to move. Willing himself he slowly released the wheel. His hands ached from the pain of how hard he gripped but, that pain was nothing compared to the pain in his head.

The front of the car totaled and smoke was already bellowing out. Rubbing his head he wondered if it would explode like in the movies.

BOOM!

Looking out the passenger window, he could see parts of her naked form once again. His giant friend rest on one knee. His poor friend Mimi, was rubbing her ankle in pain.

“I did it.”

Roy not sure what he should do next, undid his seat belt and tried to open the car door. Finding it jammed due to the crash. Not wanting to waste time he climbed out the window and ran towards her. Approaching the giant woman like running up to a building that might collapse on him at any moment. Fear pulled at his foot steps, but he continued on.

“Mimi!”

Mimi seemed to hear him as she lifted her head. Her eyes still partially closed, but she searched.

“Right here Mimi!” Slowing to a stop as he approached her red swollen ankle.

With one slightly open eye she found him. Roy froze again. Like a deer in head lights as he saw his reflection in her massive eye. He couldn’t move as she watched him. He let out a sigh of relief, but that relief was short lived as he knew what would happen next. He wanted this to end. He couldn’t stand to see his friend become this monster. With many mixed emotions he decided he wouldn’t run. Mimi needed him.

She stared in silence, becoming very still. No longer caring about the pain in her ankle, she slowly reached for him. Roy flinched as her massive hand descended upon him. Her cute and dainty hand that he held moments ago was once again large enough to hold all of him. A cute smile appeared on her sleepy face. With just her large pointer finger, she began to stroke his head.

“ROY?”

“Yes! Yes it’s me!” He rubbed her curious finger back, holding it with both arms as she stroked his head.

GROWL!

Her face turned to a sour sad expression, he could tell she wanted to cry. Not knowing what to say he watched as she began to spiral. It didn’t take long for large drops of water to begin crashing upon impact with the asphalt.

“ROY I’M SO SORRY! I AM SO… HUNGRY. I’M HAVING TROUBLE CONTROLLING MYSELF…”

Her booming voice and the words attached sent shivers down his spine. His body was frozen, but he could feel the urge to run away growing. Some primal fear of being in the presence of a large predator was tugging at him to run.

“I-I know Mimi. It’s okay” He patted her finger, that still lay on his head.

Getting the hint she closed her eyes and gave him a pained expression. There was so much Roy wanted to ask her. The question weighed heavy in his mind. Could she possibly be the one who gave Roy the potion? The pain in her eyes convinced him to let it go for now.

“It’s okay Mimi!” Roy did his best to assure her. With the biggest smile he could muster. “I have a confession to make.”

Mimi seemed genuinely shocked to hear those words. She bent down closer and now resting on both knees, bringing her giant face closer to him. He had her full attention. Roy tried not to flinch as her body came closer to him with the speed of a falling building. Doing his best not to look upon her naked form proved difficult as she was all he could see.

Standing in the shadow of his friend. Roy felt so close to his friend and yet so far away. Staring into her eyes, he could see the tears welling up. His image blurred but reflected. It pained him to see her like this. The silence suddenly broken by a rumble deep within his friend.

GROWL!

The roar reminding the two of their time limit. Like a surge of electricity it shook her. She winced and rested her chin on the street. Opening her mouth and sticking out her tongue. A familiar sight to Roy was his friend’s waiting mouth. Roy knew it well, he had to laugh at how accurate this dream world was. Walking forward and peering into her mouth, the large wet pink cave was welcoming him back in. The sweet familiar scent of her breath, washing over him like hot waves. Her soft tongue dripped with saliva, pooling in the street under it.

“PLEASE… TELL ME…” She managed to say clearly. Seemingly fighting her urges.

Roy smiled and stepped onto her tongue. Dropping to both knees and resting his face on her tongue. Slapping onto the voracious organ with a wet thunk. He could feel it tremble beneath him and immediately form around his form. Her breathing becoming more labored. The amount of saliva accumulated in Mimi’s mouth, quickly soaking his clothes. He didn’t care how wet he was getting, he didn’t care that she would probably give into the urges caused by the potion. He didn’t like that someone knew of his kinks and desires, but he couldn’t deny what Laka said was true. It was something that was hard to admit aloud, but Roy wanted to be eaten. Being eaten was a final act, but in this dream world it wasn’t so permanent. He was scared, but also very excited. Not wanting this opportunity to slip by, he embarrassed her tongue.

“Mimi… I have always secretly… enjoyed the thought of-”

Before he could continue, He was hit with such force, it temporarily knocked him out. Fighting the feeling of going unconscious as he struggled. Trying hard to keep his eyes open. He attempted to move, but found that impossible. His arms were free, but the rest of his body was restrained.

It was a familiar feeling of being restrained by something soft yet forceful. The cold air rushed past him as he was pulled hard by something. His skin wet with saliva, now feeling the cold stink of the air. The smell of smoke was momentarily overpowered by the smell of lavender.

His head was spinning. Roy clapped his eyes shut and rubbed his head. Looking around Roy could see the street, the cars, and even the tops of the lampposts. He was high above the street, He flinched, his stomach dropped upon realizing his height. Something held him high above the street. Looking around he recognized her nail polish. A cute purple and well manicured nails. It was Sarah who had now become a giant woman.

Looking up to see the most serious expression he had ever seen her make. Roy’s emotions were swirling within him. He didn’t want to be saved, he wanted to end this. He wanted to experience his kink, in the closest way to reality he could.

Roy stared hard, but she did not break eye contact with Mimi. He wanted to tell her to let him go, but found the words hard to say. It was clear to Roy, that Sarah was going to stop Mimi. She had made up her mind and wouldn’t look to Roy for any answers. Before he could saying anything else, he felt Sarah’s giant hand adjust and move to better hold him. An act that had him clinging to her thumb, like a cat in a tree. The drop in his stomach nearly causing him to throw up. Roy instinctively stretching his body over her hand, preparing for the possible vomit. Looking down however, revealed Sarah was not only as big as Mimi, but just as naked. Quickly looking back up, Roy covered his eyes.

Sarah didn’t seem bothered by her nudity. Sarah assumed a stance that didn’t cover her body, allowing her massive breasts to swing free. Roy did his best to look away, but that was easier said than done. They were much bigger than him and had almost suffocated him multiple times in the past.

Suddenly remembering where he was, Roy clung to her soft fingers. Nudity or not his friends may very well begin fighting, he didn’t feel so safe anymore.

Looking down he could see Mimi rising up to meet them, anger on her face. Looking back up at Sarah, he could see that she had an equally serious expression. Roy’s heart began to race. As the two giantess stared each other down, Roy knew at this point there wasn’t much he could do. He didn’t want to see his friend’s fight, but how could he convince Sarah that letting him be eaten would end this nightmare?

“Would they even listen?” He wondered. He wanted to yell, he wanted to tell her.

Before he could plan anything he began to move. Sarah moved her free arm against her breasts pressing them together. Her arm acting like a bra, propping her breasts up. Then gently placing Roy in a familiar flesh prison. The feeling of being held from both sides by incredibly soft skin, was something he was getting used to. As much as it still embarrassed him, the feeling of sinking in her ample breasts made him feel very safe and in danger at the same time.

Mimi did not back down, despite Sarah’s resolve. As usual Roy started to sink. With every little movement Sarah made.

“Sarah!” He yelled trying desperately to get her attention. “You can’t fight while holding me!”

Sarah seemed to not hear him, or maybe she chose to ignore him. Roy could only sit in his soft fleshy prison. Each struggle only seemed to jiggle, but otherwise keep him in place. Unable to move and unsure if it would be wise to attempt an escape at this height.

A rhythmic beating caught Roy’s ear. He rose and fell as Sarah’s breathing seem to become more constant. Was she planning on making the first strike?

Roy could only feel heart ache, as Mimi kept her eyes only partially opened and locked on him. She seemed desperate. Her posture now hunched. Her chin was wet with saliva, as well as the floor beneath her. Mimi was now overcome with hunger.

“Mimi…” Roy began pulling at Sarah’s soft flesh. His hands sinking with futility. The beat of her heart quickening in pace.

Roy’s world suddenly became a roller coaster like rush, as everything seemed to happen very quickly. Every movement made Roy’s world a blur. Every step accompanied with a crash and boom. Mimi rushed for Roy, with incredible speed her hand was nearly on him. Roy was suddenly moved away as Sarah’s body pivoted to land a punch, square in Mimi’s face. The resulting movement causing Roy to bounce and shift with her breasts. Doing his best to keep an eye on the fight despite the movements of Sarah’s body.

Mimi stopped, frozen in shock of being punched by her friend. Roy could feel Sarah’s body tense up as she readied for whatever Mimi had next. Her heart beat only picking up pace. Mimi turning to now eye Sarah. Her face red, from where the blow landed.

Once again she lunged with incredible speed. Roy braced himself for impact as best he could, trying hard to keep his eyes open. This time Sarah turned her body, pointing her shoulder at Mimi. Like a football player ready for a tackle, doing her best to defend Roy. Digging in her heals as Mimi hit her with tremendous force. Roy’s view now angled down as Sarah took the hit. He could see the asphalt build up behind her feet as she was pushed with such force by the hungry giantess.

Suddenly Roy felt free and weightless. Roy was knocked from her cleavage. Flying upward with Sarah as she fell backwards. Sarah having no idea Roy was no longer a passenger, did her best to protect her cleavage with both arms.

BOOM!

Sarah landed and skid across the street. Ripping out a traffic signal and setting off several car alarms.

Roy flying high into the air, had no time to react so such force. He could only hope this dream world didn’t have real life gravity. His hopes where dashed as he found himself falling faster. The ground was rushing towards him quickly. Shutting his eyes, Roy balled up and braced for impact.

Instead of a hard concrete landing, Roy pleased to hit soft flesh. Sinking deep into Sarah’s uncovered breast, only to spring back as her flesh shifted back. A painful jerking reaction from Sarah as he sprung back.

“I’m… so sorry Sarah.” Roy spread out taking deep breathes. Rising and falling with her similar deep breathes. “Thank…you.”

Before Roy could relax any further he was suddenly flat on his face and in her lap. Sarah once again rising to her feet. Tumbling down her soft skin and finally rolling onto the street.

“Sarah… are you okay?” Roy still dizzy, tried to climb to his feet. Stumbling with each step, he tried to regain his balance.

BOOM!

The giantess kaiju fight continued as Sarah blocked another blow from Mimi. Sarah still using only one arm to defend herself and Roy who was no longer in her arms.

BOOM!

Roy could only stand on the sidewalk and watch as the two giantess fought. Feeling helpless as Mimi lost herself to her hunger. Cars being crushed under foot, nearby windows being smashed.

The sound of sirens and screams could be heard in the distance.

BOOM!

CRASH!

BOOM!

The fight continued. He tried to yell but found his lungs unable to. He found his side aching and bruised. Not even sure if they would hear him, he let out a weak groan. Falling from several stories up seem to have an effect on him. Even with his soft landing, his limbs ached.

Mimi finally getting the upper hand, rammed Sarah into a building. The crash sounded like a sink hole opening up. The building immediately crumbled under their weight. The crashing sound was comparable to bomb exploding in close proximity. Were once stood an apartment complex was now a large dust cloud. The earth shook beneath him as dust blocked his vision.

Roy ducked behind a car as the dust cloud enveloped everything. Stray bricks and pieces of the building flew by at high speeds. Roy protected his head and curled into a ball.

The following silence scared him more than the giantess fight. He couldn’t see any movement. The only sound now, was the sirens growing ever closer.

“Was it finally over?” Why couldn’t he hear them, he wondered.

Taking cautious steps forward. he ventured further into the dust cloud. Visibility was bad as he approached the wreckage of the building. Still, not a sound could be heard.

“Someone won?” He thought trying to keep his eyes open in the dust. The dust cloud created a dense white fog over everything. Things only appearing in his vision as he got closer to them. His head starting to match his aching body. The adrenaline was wearing off. The dust began to settle on the street. The image of two large woman was slowly becoming visible to him. Mimi and Sarah both lay unconscious in the remains of a building. The two appeared to be just sleeping though they seemed very beaten. Sarah still held her breasts tight, even while unconscious she was protecting him.

Roy dropped to his knees. The feeling of sleeping over taking him as well. Sitting on the street, he watched his friends sleep. Roy breathed a sigh of relief.

“Maybe we can finally wake up.” Roy could feel sleep starting to take him as well. “Will we remember this? What will I tell them?”

That thought scared him. Looking back on his friends, he remembered that Mimi had basically became a hungry monster and ate some random people. Sarah had to fight her best friend to protect Roy. Be it a dream or not. It was as vivid as any other day. Feeling very real to him.

He thought back on Laka’s words.

“This was a shared experience… Could that mean they will remember this? Or could these giant women truly be my friends, or just a dream version of them?”

BOOM!

BOOM!

Roy groaned as he almost let himself join his unconscious friends.

BOOM!

“Now what?” Roy moaned in pain. Rubbing his eyes he looked over at his friends. Surprised to see them both still asleep.

BOOM!

BOOM!

Roy was growing concerned, rising to his feet as best as he could. As he regained some semblance of balance, it was obvious to him running was not an option.

A sudden burst of air, almost knocked him back onto the ground. He waited for the gust to stop, his eyes shut tight. Realizing in the darkness that all he could hear was his own labored breathing, and that of the girls.

It was suddenly quiet, the air finally calm. He couldn’t even hear the sirens anymore. Slowly he opened his, eyes realizing the dust cloud was completely gone now. A great force seemingly clearing the air instantly.

Hesitantly, he turned to his side. Revealing a large object only feet from him. Before him was a third massive figure spanning several stories in height.

Yet another massive feminine creature, stared straight down on to him. Roy froze in fear for a moment. looking back down, he let out a sigh. Staring at massive wedge high heels, so big he could lay on them had a giant foot not been in them. Her nails were well manicured and painted white, something he didn’t notice when they first met. Roy wanted nothing more than this dream to end. He didn’t need to look up to know who was in front of him. Before him was the gigantic womanly form of the ring leader of this dream world.

“Hey… can I go home now, Laka?”

Roy craned his neck back up to meet her pale blue gaze. Roy couldn’t help but notice she was more clothed than his giantess friends. As the orchestrator of the dream world, it wasn’t surprising she had more control over her own appearance. This was a sight he was more or less used to. Her sudden appearance made him feel uneasy, though somewhat relieved.

“OH? HAD ENOUGH ROY?” She said sweetly, though loudly. “COULD HAVE FOOLED ME. I THOUGHT YOU WERE HAVING A LITTLE FUN.”

Her massive body sending yet another gust of wind towards him as she bent down onto one knee. Roy braced himself, maintaining his balance as she got closer. Her bikini bottom coming into full display, as her pool wrap revealed her tan legs like a curtain opening a show. From his lower angle Roy could see her natural beauty. Her pale blue eyes locked on him, watching his every move. He could tell from her expression she was quite pleased with what she had done. Her expression was cocky, though Roy could see some sympathy in her gaze.

“I just want to wake up now…” Roy breathed a sign of relief. “I… uh… have a lot to unpack.”

“WELL, I SUPPOSE THAT IS FINE… I BELIEVE I HAVE MADE MY POINT… YOU THREE MAY RETURN.” She said with a slight, yet devious smirk. The giantess retrieved her phone from her tube top. It was as big as a widescreen television, though in her hands it seemed like a normal sized phone. The phone case covered in glitter and read: The Hungry Islet. Roy wondered if the gaudy custom phone case existed in the real world.

“I WILL NEED A SECOND TO END THIS DREAM.” She began tapping the screen on her phone. At her size he could feel every tap.

Roy laughed at the implication that Laka was controlling the dream from her phone. His joy immediately turned to pain as his ribs still ached.

“BEFORE I END THIS DREAM, YOUNG MAN…” She looked away from her phone, resting her chin on her free hand. “DON’T FORGET WHAT WE DISCUSSED”

Roy looked up and nodded.

“YOU MUST MAKE A CHOICE. UNDERSTOOD?”

Roy stared a moment and nodded again. Laka smiled but, once again he could see the pity in her eyes. Looking away, he had nothing else to say. He could hear her resume tapping her phone.

Roy looked over at his unconscious friends. He could see, even in this state, they were struggling. Possibly continuing their struggles in a dream within a dream. Mimi’s chin was shiny with saliva, Sarah still protecting Roy. Even unconscious, his friends were reliving their last actions.

“Hey…” Roy surprised Laka and himself. Turning his gaze back to Laka’s. “Are we… going to remember this? When we wake up I mean.”

“WOULDN’T BE MUCH OF A MESSAGE IF I TOOK THAT AWAY, NOW WOULD IT?” She said giggling, still tapping her phone with her index finger.

“So you CAN take it away?”

The giantess stopped tapping. The smirk falling off her face. Looking away from her phone, giving Roy a suspicious look. Roy couldn’t help but smirk at her.

“YOU ARE A FASCINATING YOUNG MAN ROY. I AM GOING TO NEED TO BE CAREFUL AROUND YOU IN THE FUTURE.” She smiled back at Roy, leaning in closer. “SO WHAT IF I CAN TAKE AWAY THE MEMORY OF THIS NIGHT?”

“I want to make a deal with you. Someone made a deal with you to shrink me. I want one too!” Roy furrowed his brow and stood his ground, ignoring the pain in his side. “Please… I don’t want them to remember this. I don’t want Mimi or Sarah to remember this night. I know you need me to know of the circumstance of being the wish maker or whatever, but they don’t need this. As far as I know they are innocent bystanders in all this. Please I’ll do whatever you want, just make them forget this. I don’t want Mimi to remember what she has become here! I don’t want Sarah to remember Mimi like this!”

Roy felt as though his heart would pop any moment, but he refuse to look away from Laka’s pale blue eyes. Intimidating someone wasn’t something he attempted often. Roy stood and stared, not knowing if it was working.

Before Roy could take a step, he was suddenly being lifted high into the air. Having felt his body wrapped in the hand of a giantess moments ago and many times before that, he knew she had him in her grip. The sinking feeling of rising rapidly and the pain in his side caused him to wince, though he did his best to maintain eye contact with her. Her grip was firm and it didn’t let up, much like a firm handshake. The pressure made him feel as though his blood might stop circulating. Once she stopped at her impressive height, Roy could feel her loosen her grip. Still firm, restricting any movement.

“YOU’LL DO ANYTHING?” She smiled a wicked yet triumphant smile. Roy could see her eyes wonder upward as she bit her bottom lip in thought. Something Roy was getting better at, was seeing the small details on someone’s face. When she finally released her lip with a smile, he knew she had something special in mind. “I WANT TWO THINGS. TWO LITTLE FAVORS. ONE FAVOR FOR EACH GIRL’S MEMORIES.”

Roy was suddenly fearing her conditions. A sigh of relief escaped him as at least his friends wouldn’t remember. Looking down at there sleeping forms, lying naked in debris, he knew he had to agree.

“I’ll do it…”

“ROY!” With her free hand, she brought her phone over to cover her mouth. Her expression in mock surprise. Wide eyes and an even wider open mouth smile. “YOUNG MAN! YOU MUST ASK FOR CONDITIONS OF A DEAL, BEFORE STRIKING A DEAL. WOULD YOU SIGN OVER A BLANK CHECK SO EASILY?”

“Whatever it is… it’s worth it” Roy said trying to hide his trembling hands.

“YOU DO REALIZE WHAT I AM CAPABLE OF? DO YOU NOT?” Lowering her phone from her face. “YOU’VE SEEN WHAT MY POTIONS CAN DO TO A MAN. THIS DREAM WORLD IS AN EASY ENOUGH SPELL TO CONJURE. YOUR ACHING BODY KNOWS FULL WELL HOW REAL THIS ALL FEELS. IF YOU AGREE TO MY TERMS YOU MAY LIVE TO REGRET IT.”

A breeze blew through Roy’s hair. Looking down at his friend’s and around at the destruction caused by their fight. Eventually finding his way back into her waiting blue eyes. For a fraction of a second as his eyes returned to hers, he saw something he didn’t expect. In just the smallest moment he saw sadness in her eyes. In a blink it was gone. He was stunned, not sure if he saw correctly. A smug look now on her face as she eyed him like a piece of meat.

“It… It’s worth it… I mean I am screwed anyways right? I am a wish maker now. I only have one thing to look forward to. I have to make a choice and I will, but before that if I can help my friends it’s worth it.” He stared into her eyes, not blinking. “So name your conditions.”

Laka stood in silence absorbing his words. She then turned back to her phone and began tapping away. After a few taps Laka turned the phone to Roy. The screen was bigger than him. As it approached, his eyes had to adjust to the light emitted from the phone. As his eyes finally focused, he was able to see the image before him. Blown up on the wall sized screen before him, was a contract. With a section to sign. Boxed in a bright white square, complete with an “x” to sign by.

Roy read the words on the screen as closely as he could. Trying not to miss anything. His eyes widening on the possibility of returning to a normal size. It seemed as true as the deal they just discussed. Roy for a moment wondered if this contract would hold in an actual court of law. He then remembered the power Laka had in this dream world and immediately gave up on that idea.

“Failure to remove memories?” He wondered aloud.

“THAT WON’T HAPPEN YOUNG MAN.” She raised her eyebrow and gave him a smirk. “I AM VERY THOROUGH.”

Finding nothing else to question, his eyes wondered back to the one part of the contract he was the most worried about.

“So I need to be devoured within three days… and not only that…” Roy hesitantly looked around the phone to meet her gaze. “I need to be eaten… in a dream world… much like this one. I assume.”

“YOU ASSUME CORRECTLY.” She said with an innocent smile. “JUST THINK OF IT AS PRACTICE FOR THE REAL THING.”

Roy knew she was right in that aspect. This dream world felt every bit as real as the waking world he desperately wanted to return to. Looking down at Mimi and Sarah he pictured how he would get into one of their mouths while they slept. With how sore he was, he knew he had quite the task ahead of him. Prying open a mouth of that size would be very taxing.

Having already made up his mind, he turned his head back to the phone and signed with his finger. Surprised at how well it transferred his terrible hand writing with the touch screen. Roy stared at the screen for a moment. There it was, his name signed.

Turning her phone back. Laka had her turn to stare at his signature. Once she confirmed his signature, she smiled another big wicked smile. Extending one of the fingers that held Roy, she proceeded to sign as well. Suddenly Roy’s world turned sideways as her finger danced on the touch screen. Roy grabbed her middle finger for dear life afraid of falling from this height a second time.

Dizzy but relieved that she was finally done. The image of the phone finally came into focus as his head stopped spinning.

There was both of their signatures. An agreement had been struck. With that Roy let out a sigh of relief. Looking down at Mimi, he began to asses the situation. To his surprise both Mimi and Sarah appear to lay comfortably asleep. There unconscious struggles seemingly gone. A smile crept upon Roy’s face. As the contract said, upon signing, Mimi and Sarah seem to be relieved of their earlier stress. The slept soundly not a care in the world.

“YOU HAVE THREE DAYS YOUNG MAN. I AM GLAD WE COULD DO BUSINESS. I HOPE YOU HAVE MADE A DECISION BY THEN. DON’T THINK I WON’T COLLECT, IF YOU FAIL TO UPHOLD YOUR END.”

Roy turned and smiled at his captor. Finally he felt he had some control over his life. The last few days he felt so weak and helpless, at the whim of his friends and the deal that shrank him.

“Y-yes ma’am!” He felt he might tear up. Mimi and Sarah have been helping him the past two days and he did what he could for them. Paying them back in any way, made him feel so much lighter. “I promise!”

“VERY GOOD!” She gave him, what felt like the most sincere smile he had ever seen her make.

Roy didn’t know what to say. She was glowing and she seemed pleased with him.

“Maybe she wanted this over and done with.” Roy wondered. “Perhaps this is the relief she had been waiting for.”

“WELL I SUPPOSE, WE SHOULD GET YOU BACK THEN SHOULDN’T WE?”

“Y-yes please! If you could just set me down.”

Her expression dropped and she made a face that said: Yeah right!

Roy was confused. Did he misunderstand something? He couldn’t read her expression.

“E-everything okay?” He chuckled nervously.

“YOU WANT ME TO PUT YOU DOWN. IS THAT RIGHT?”

“Uh… Y-yes please.” Roy instinctively held onto the fingers that held him, not sure what was about to happen.

“YOU GOT IT LITTLE MAN.”

Roy looked down, expecting to be placed on the street. To his surprise, not only was he not going down he was flying into the air. No longer feeling his finger in his grip as he sailed high into the air. Roy reached out for anything to grab, but there was nothing. Reaching the apex of his flight, he began to fall.

As he began to plummet, he could see Laka licking her plump lips. He mouth open wide as she stepped forward. Stepping into position to catch him. Her eyes trained on him as she readied to catch him.

Roy could do nothing as he fell straight into her mouth. Hitting her tongue hard, with a wet splat. The soft muscle braking his fall. She didn’t seem to mind his crash landing as her tongue immediately began forming around him. Roy was once again soaked in saliva. He took in a deep breath of the intense heat of her mouth. The air was muggy and warm, though it had the pleasant smell of pina colada. Looking up he could see the source of the smell, her throat and where it lead, into the darkness of her body. Roy turned towards the exit, but found himself unable to move.

Laka’s tongue was a beast he was not familiar with. As the pink snake sandwiched him in itself. The soft yet forceful embrace of her hungry tongue held him in place. Roy could feel her tongue all around him as it shifted and tasted him.

The light from out of Laka’s mouth still shone in as she did not close her mouth. Falling and rising with her ever undulating tongue.

Roy looked around at his new surroundings. This is the third mouth he had the pleasure of sitting in. Although most mouths have a similar look to them. Roy could see the difference, being so well antiquated with Sarah’s and Mimi’s. Those most notable was her amazingly flexible her tongue was.

Looking out Roy was surprised to see himself, staring right back. The same scared look staring right back at him. It was Laka’s phone, it was recording with the front facing camera. She was recording this moment.

It frightened him to be pinned by her, but he knew it would be over soon. He tried to find comfort in that, as her tongue wrapped around his lower body like wet underwear.

“MMM…”

Everything around him vibrated as Laka moaned with pleasure. Pulling the phone camera back, Roy could now see Laka’s face. She was now flush and red. She winked and moaned again.

“MMM”

Roy couldn’t believe it, but it was obvious from her expression. She was enjoying him.

“OH MY” Roy bounced with her every word. The light from outside cutting out occasionally as she formed the words to speak. “YOU ARE TASTY! I CAN SEE WHY SHE WANTED YOU. OHHH ROY. SO SWEET!”

Her face was reaching orgasmic levels. Roy couldn’t believe she was enjoying him so much. Seemingly reaching her limit.

Her expressions up till now have been somewhat tame and reserved. This was a whole new look for her. Was the potion also having an effect on her, even in this dream world? Her phone left his sight, as well as everything else. Her mouth was now closed and he was forced to her pallet with a wet squish. Her tongue releasing his lower regions, as it helped push him upward.

Roy was pressed hard against the roof of her mouth. His entire body and face, getting wetter by the second. He could barley see a thing as her mouth opened and closed, letting in only the smallest amount of light. He was being savored by her. Her tongue held in firmly in place, while occasionally moving side to side. The soft wet surface sliding across his skin. He was overcome with a mixture of pleasure and fear. She handled him roughly. This was a different experience from what he has felt with Mimi and Sarah. She wanted him in one spot and he couldn’t do anything to fight her strength. She treated him more like a thing than a person.

Her tongue began to shift and move. Suddenly he was released from her pallet, creating enough space to sit up on her tongue. He could feel the strands of saliva on his back as he shifted to an upright position. Wiping the saliva from his face, only to find he was still in very low light. Like a snake, the tip of her tongue began to move along his body very dexterously. It slid up his leg and up to his waist. It easily slid into his pants and just as easily pulled his pants off. Roy twitched as the feeling of her tongue on his bare skin was very overwhelming. Just as swiftly, he felt her flexible tongue enter his shirt and pull it off with ease.

As her tongue moved, it covered him in more saliva. Flipping him onto his back with head toward her lips, she cradled him with her tongue. As he found a brief moment to rest, he wiped his eyes of the sticky substance. To his surprise the light poured in. Her mouth was open he had a perfect view of her waiting throat and dangling uvula.

Laying on her tongue like a hammock, he was too tired to attempt an escape. The cold outside air entering her mouth and causing Roy’s skin to tingle. He had only been in her mouth for a minute or two but he was already exhausted. The thought occurred to attempt an escape, but he remembered the contract. It stated he must be devoured in a dream. This had to be what she meant. Roy knew what she meant by “Practice”

Something caught his eye in the dim light of her mouth. It was his pants, slick and wet. Stuck to her tongue and sliding farther and farther back. Roy could only watch as Laka’s skilled tongue moved his jeans towards her throat. In an even more impressive display, she swallowed them with her mouth open.

Roy watched as the back of her tongue rose, and his pants disappeared.

GULP!

The sound was loud and all around him. He felt her tongue move and shift beneath him as his remaining belongings were pulled to the same fate.

GULP!

His shirt

GULP!

his shoes

GULP!

Roy was forced to watch and wait his turn. Each swallow pulled him closer to her hungry throat.

“MMM!”

The sound of her pleasured moans vibrated the interior of her mouth. Like a conveyor belt he was slowly dragged closer to her opening. Roy could feel her breath quickening as he got closer until her was nearly there. The source of her tropical drink-like breath was right before him.

Roy wanted to fight it, but knew he couldn’t. The contract demanded he sacrifice himself in this dream world. More so than his fear, he knew he didn’t have the strength to fight her skilled tongue. She could do whatever she wanted with him and she did.

Before he could dwell on his illusion of choice further, her tongue easily flipped him around so that he was now on his stomach. Facing her open mouth, he winced at the light in his eyes. Her tongue continued it’s plan and he was headed feet first into her throat. The feeling of her slick wet tongue now focused on the front of his body.

He had to wince as the light from outside her mouth temporarily blinded him. For a moment he was only able to see the bright outside light and the light reflecting off her shiny tongue as it moved and shifted. Once his eyes adjusted, he was once again staring at himself. Laka was once again filming the experience. Or had she been doing it this entire time?

He thought about waving or making a face as he was about to be devoured by her. He didn’t have the time to make a decision however. As her tongue lifted, pressing him against the roof of her mouth and forcing him into her warm throat.

GULP!

This was the loudest gulp yet. Roy wanted to cover his ears, but as he slid into her throat his arms were forced upwards. Laka’s powerful throat muscles wasted no time squeezing and pulling him down. Looking up as the light was eventually gone from sight. Roy slid down into her body. Passing her rapidly beating heart. The sounds of her body and the squelching of fluids overcame everything. Roy descended further into her dark depths.

Roy was starting to panic. His hope was, when he was swallowed he would soon awake in real life. To his horror he remained in darkness. Sliding down deeper, squeezed into her body. Wet and slimy with her saliva and juices. The pressure of being squeezed into her stomach finally came to an end.

Falling out of her esophagus and into her waiting stomach juices.

SPLASH!

With a big splash, he landed on his feet into waist deep liquid. The smell of, her beverage of choice, was all around him. The heat was even more intense in her stomach. Unable to hold his footing, he quickly fell onto his bottom. His head now completely submerged. He quickly attempted to stand, but found that nearly impossible.

All of a sudden Laka’s body seemed to be moving unnaturally. The contents of her stomach sloshed back and forth.

SPLASH!

He fell once again in her juices. Unable to stand his ground, he started to get dizzy.

Suddenly everything around him began to tremble. It was like an earthquake in Laka’s body. Roy did his best to reach for anything in the darkness. Holding his breath whenever he fell. Feeling the slimy soft surface of Laka’s stomach walls. Roy was lost in the dark and held close to the walls. That was hard to do as her body shifted and moved in different directions. Roy held close as best he could. He couldn’t tell if the loud thumping was his heart or hers. The thumping got faster and faster to the point were he thought either of them would have a heart attack. Still he held on, doing his best to ride out this wave of sudden energy.

The earthquake like shaking seemed to reach a climax and then after a moment, began to slow. After a few after shocks, it all finally came to an end. Roy could hear Laka’s breathing was starting to slow down and regain normal speeds. The loud thumping of her heart, was slowing to a normal pace. Laka’s body stopped shaking.

Roy let out a sigh of relief, though he wasn’t sure if he was in a position to relax. He was happy she stopped shaking, but remembered where he was. Still unable to see he wiping his eyes of her stomach fluid and slicked back his soaked hair. Everything seemed to slow to a stop. He could finally stand in the waist deep liquid. He was pleased to find he wasn’t dissolving… yet.

As Roy relaxed and his breathing slowed, He could feel everything around him breathing as well. Laka was all around him and she was breathing like him. The walls he held on to, were warm and moved as she breathed. Roy felt her stomach walls with his hands. They were soft and moved rhythmically.

Roy did his best not to panic. He waited in the darkness. He knew as part of their deal, he needed to be eaten. He wondered how far it went. Did he have to go through all stages of digestion? Not knowing what to expect.

Nothing.

Dropping and slumped against Laka’s stomach walls. The soft walls embraced him back.

He did it. He was devoured. He fulfilled his end, of one of the two tasks he must complete. He laid against her stomach walls, every movement he was greeted with a soft squish. He began to laugh. Not knowing or caring if Laka could hear him.

He wasn’t burning away like he silently feared, which made him happy. Roy rubbed against the stomach walls. Not sure what was going to happen next.

“Will this happen in real life?” He wondered. “Or is this just because it’s a dream?”

Roy remembered the words that were used on the bottle. “sacrifice”

Rubbing his face into the soft tissue. It was comfortable, soft and warm. Roy couldn’t lie. This was something Roy wanted more than anything. He pictured himself in Mimi’s stomach and smiled. He was happy. This was actually a nice “practice round”. Laka was right, he had a fetish and he was happy. The perfect candidate for this potion. He was the wish maker now, but in this moment he felt as though his wishes were coming true.

Roy closed his eyes. He knew he was starting to lose consciousness. The fatigue finally taking him. He could feel himself drifting away. He welcomed it, leaning more into her stomach walls. He could feel Laka all around him. It was like a deep hug. The inner walls cradled him and embraced him. Lifting him and dropping him as they breathed together. Just before he blacked out he felt a shift.

He was sinking. Sinking deeper into her.

“Where am I going?” He wondered. He felt all of Laka starting to surround him. He felt even deeper in her than he already was. Slowly he was sinking further into her.

Deeper and deeper. Roy was absorbed by Laka.

The light spilling in through the nearby window crawled up his face. Twitching and turning his head he felt himself return to consciousness. Sitting up and stretching as he awoke from a night sleep. With a big yawn he greeted the rising sun. Still a bit groggy, he rubbed his eyes and looked around. His heart beat began to quicken as the panic of his earlier dream returned to his memory.

“Where am I!?” Roy panicked. He had gone from peaceful sleep to full panic is seconds. Breathing heavily, he searched all around him.

Looking around the room in the dim morning light, he noticed the room was far too spacious to be his. As he searched the room, he felt his bed move and jiggle like a water bed beneath him. Confused at what he was laying on, he looked down to read the words:

BIG HUGS

His breathing began to slow as he realized it was over. He was once again in Sarah’s bosom. He had never felt more safe to be on Sarah’s chest.

Now calm, Roy laid back onto the soft flesh. Enjoying the waves he caused by laying back.

The endless dream was finally over… but was it real?

Roy felt a smile creep on his face, as he saw Sarah’s emotionless expression. He wondered if it was just a dream after all. It felt too real. It was the most vivid dream he had ever had. The scenes replayed in his mind over and over.

Rising and falling with Sarah’s chest brought him some comfort. He couldn’t help but dwell on the deal he made with Laka. Roy shifted into a more comfortable position against her right breast. As instantly welcoming as her chest was, Roy couldn’t fall back asleep.

Carefully stepping off of Sarah. Doing his best not to wake her. Jumping off and landing on the springy bed. He turned and smiled to see her still lightly snoring.

Making his way across the bed, over to the nearby window. Jumping over the gap and walking past the dolls. He stared at the yard, the morning dew dripping off the grass, it was so peaceful.

Roy sighed a sigh of relief. Leaning against one of the stuffed animals. Giving it a hug as it’s arms were already out.

“I did it…” Roy slumped to the shelf beneath him. “I was actually eaten… Now I just have to do it… again.”

His eyes drifted back to Sarah. His gaze fixated on her lips. As he sat in his thoughts. Something hit him, something felt wrong. Roy rose back to his feet and looked back out the window.

The memory of the bottle flashed in his mind. He scanned and searched as best he could from the window. Straining his eyes to see every detail in the morning light, but found nothing. The bottle was gone…
