At the age of seven, when Marnie weighed 95 pounds, she discovered that
her belly and she had a lot in common. Both liked it when the belly got
so full and stuffed that she could feel it press into her when she lay
on it and rocked back and forth. They liked it even more when Marnie
placed her rubber beach ball under the belly and rocked.
That summer, at the family beach house, Marnie and the belly spent a
great deal of time in the boathouse playing together. They would not
only roll around on the ball, but Marnie would take a table in the
boathouse and place it in front of a mirror fragment, then lay the belly
on the table and see how much more it stuck out that way. This was even
more fun when the edge of the table pressed into the bottom of the
belly.
Despite her mother's watchful eye, Marnie managed to keep gaining weight
so that, by the time she was eleven, and 4'10" tall, she weighed l70
pounds.
Secrecy being necessary for her to continue feeding herself and the
belly, Marnie became a loner, the better to keep eating without anyone
commenting on it, at least while she was ingesting the food. This was
when she and her belly made a pact. They would be each other's best
friends. And, as long as Marnie kept feeding the belly so it would
always be full and hard, the belly would provide Marnie with the
pleasures that go along with having a monumental gut: the constant
feeling of fullness at the pit of the stomach, the wonderful sensation of
having her chubby thighs brush the sides of the belly every time she
took a step, the beautiful sight of the belly when she held out in
front of her and it stuck out more than a foot... In other words, with
the help of her secret friend, the belly, Marnie had become a hedonist
at the ripe old age of twelve.
Junior high school and high school were a time of great joy for Marnie
and her secret companion. She took an after-school job taking care of
the children of a bakery owner and was able to keep the belly fuller
than ever on the pastries that were always available at her boss's
house. By the time she graduated from high school, Marnie weighed in at
230 pounds and it was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the
belly as a "secret" companion. But, with baggy pants and huge
sweaters, she managed somehow.
College was another thing, however. With no mother to berate her for
eating all the time and "getting so fat that nobody will ever ask you
for a date," Marnie could really apply herself to the task of taking
care of the belly. She applied for a job babysitting after class, this
time for the children of an icecream parlor owner.
Marnie raided the freezer every time she babysat, eating larger and
larger quantities of icecream at a sitting. It wasn't long before her
boss noticed the shrinking supply of icecream in his freezer and the
increase in Marnie's girth. Now, Jack and his wife Jane worked long
hours and played little, but the pastime that gave them the most
pleasure was feeding icecream to chubby girls whom they felt had the
potential to become really huge young women. And Marnie seemed to fit
their ideal to a Tee.
Why spend money at the dorm," they asked Marnie,"when you could live
here for nothing?"
Although Marnie hesitated to move off campus, the belly was not going to
let her turn down an opportunity like this. "After all," the belly
told her, ""you like Jack and Jane and get along well with their kids.
You love their icecream. I love the results of your eating it. And I'm
even developing a taste for it as well as for its effect on me. Come
on. Why Not? All the icecream we could ever want, for nothing. What
have we got to lose?" (no pun intended).
Six months -- and at least a gallon of icecream with fudge sauce and
whipped cream every day, in addition to all the food the belly could
entice her into eating -- late, Marnie had blown up to a monumental 305
pounds. Her secret companion was no longer secret. The belly had come
into its own. Baggy pants and huge sweaters notwithstanding, there was
no hiding the fact that the belly now preceded five-foot-tall Marnie by
more than two feet, bouncing its way proudly with every step she took.
So, there was fat, fat little Marnie, with her secret companion out in
the open. What was she going to do for a friend? For whom was she
going to stuff herself until she was ready to burst?
Have we forgotten Jack and Jane, the feeder couple who specialized in
young girls? They had been waiting on the sidelines for just this
moment to show Marnie how she and her belly could double their pleasure
along with the doubling of her weight. And they proceeded to do just
that.
Marnie had always been fat. Ever since she was a little girl she had
loved to eat, even though her mother did everything possible to keep her
food intake down, including locking the refrigerator at night.
