I fit, but only just. Those new pants looked like they were in trouble already, and that was just the legs. The butt and crotch were really snug....snug to the point of distraction. And if I got any bigger....
Honestly, that was a real concern.
The last few days, I'd kind of been living a fantasy, and yesterday had been the pinnacle of that. I'd wanted to be a little bigger, and my dream had come true. I mean, let's be real -- I had to be at least two inches taller, and I'd filled out pretty nicely. Really nicely, if I was honest. I was probably 5'8 or so, no longer a shrimp -- but I was a damned athletic looking guy now, and I was packing.
And, I realized, I'd just had my first real sexual experience. With my best friend. Still wasn't sure how I felt about that. Especially since my OTHER best friend had put the moves on me too, and I probably would have been up for it. Parts of me were really up for it. I felt pretty sexy, which was a pleasant new feeling.
But I started to get worried now, because sex was a game changer. And I didn't know how long all this stuff would last.
There was another worrying thought: was I even done growing? And more, would I go back to normal little pipsqueak me? What caused this? Was it magic or fate or superpowers or some chemical thing from those supplements? The only thing I could think of was that wish on the fountain the other night.
What had I wished? I just wished I were bigger, right? All those fantasy novels and games, and I hadn't been specific with my wish....
I was so in my own head, I hadn't heard the shower finish or the door open.
There was Vic, still damp from the shower and wearing nothing but a towel, looking fresh and fit.
He looked great....and with that thought, my blood headed south.
"Whoa buddy, hold on. We just got clean, get your mind out of the gutter."
"How did you know?"
He laughed and closed the door and whispered: "Because it MOVED."
I looked down, sheepishly, and there it was, bunched in my too-snug crotch. I tried to think un-sexy thoughts.
"Maybe you should put a shirt on."

"So what's the plan today, kids?" Erin asked between mouthfuls of cereal.
"I'm not sure," Sarah said. "I want to check out the Village, but I also want to hit 5th avenue and all the fancy stores."
"We'd kind of planned to split up today and check out some stuff," Vic said. "But I don't know if I want to go alone," he said, looking anywhere but at me.
"I might wander a bit and check out that gym your friend mentioned," I said. "I haven't had time to work out since we got here, other than some calisthenics and the walking."
Sarah rolled her eyes. "Really? You look like you've been living in the gym, Drew. Don't you get bored? Aren't you sexy enough yet?"
I stood up and went to put my bowl in the dishwasher. "I've been eating like a pig since we got here. If I don't work some of it off, I'll get fat."
"Hah! As if. Actually," Erin said, "Maybe you should check out the gym. You can spy on Tony for me. Though I gotta say, Drew, Sarah is right -- you look like you're in pretty good shape." She stood up and walked over to me.
"Hang on -- are you wearing different shoes or something? I could have sworn I was taller than you."
Uh oh. I wasn't prepared for anyone noticing.
"We bought new shoes yesterday, his old ones blew out," Vic said helpfully.
"Looks like those jeans are a little tight, actually," Sarah said. "Not that I mind."
I felt myself blushing.
"Guys---"
"Relax, muscles, I'm just teasing. You've been the same height for four years, that doesn't just change overnight," Erin said, playfully punching my arm.
"Damn!" She exclaimed. "Okay, you *have* been living in the gym."
"Duh," Sarah said. "For the past few years. Looks good on him, don't you think?"
"....ANNNNYway, I want to check out that gaming store, Drew, you in?" Vic offered.
"YES."
"Okay boys, see you at 7 for dinner? I'll text details but I think I might be able to get us into this hole-in-the-wall place a friend of mine works at -- they do amazing peruvian chicken..."
We weren't fifty feet from the house when Vic stopped.
"Okay, are we going to talk?"
"Yeah, just ... let's grab some coffee and walk a bit, okay?"
Five minutes later, we were strolling east on one of the smaller streets, cutting across town to the nerd store.
"So, last night," Vic said. "I came on a little strong, huh?"
"I got no complaints."
"Why didn't you say anything?"
Ah. That. Do I tell him I was in the midst of some weird growth spurt and I was effectively paralyzed, and helpless while he blew me? That I would absolutely have said something if I could have? That I kind of got off on the helplessness?
"I thought I was dreaming at first. It was a weird night, okay?"
"And now you want to forget it?"
"What? No! Why are you being weird about this?"
"I don't know any other way to be. I've been terrified I fucked up and we'd stop being friends. That's why I didn't say anything for all these years."
"Oh," I said. I didn't really know how to react. It was pretty momentous stuff.
"OH? Is that all?"
"Dude, I'm wrestling with it too. My two best friends suddenly tried to get into my pants last night."
"One of us succeeded," Vic mumbled.
"Vic." I stopped and grabbed his shoulder.
"Dude"
"Vic, I'm serious. I really enjoyed last night. You're my friend and I love you, you know that, right? But BOTH of you made the play within twenty minutes of each other. And I don't really know how I feel about any of it yet -- other than I'd like to see where it goes."
"With me?"
Fuck it. "Yeah, with you. But may be also with Sarah. Would that be fucked up?"
Vic's nose did that wrinkly thing he does when he's really puzzled, and then he made a surprised sort of noise.
"Actually....no. Not if it's her."
"Seriously?"
"I thought I would be, but you know....no, I don't honestly think I would be too upset if you fooled around with her."
Really? I couldn't believe it.
"I told you the other night, I don't want us to drift apart. Any of us."
"Huh," I said, and started walking again.
"I mean, this is like, prime time to explore yourself, right? Try shit out?"
"I guess. Would you? I mean, you know, with a girl?"
"Vicky Matthews in 10th grade."
"Whoa, really?"
"Yeah. She was really nice about it but other than crossing it off the list, I didn't get into it much."
"I didn't even know you guys went out."
"We didn't. Apparently there was a bet about whether I was gay, and she offered to find out. Turns out she has a little fetish about Kpop stars and I was the best she could manage."
"Was it fun?"
"You know, it kinda was, but it was also kinda....I don't know. Like getting a flu shot."
"You have to be the weirdest kid in the world to compare your first sexual experience with a girl, with getting a flu shot."
"I mean, I'm glad I did it, but I think it was the nail on the coffin for my interest in girls. Sexually I mean."
"You know we never talked about sex stuff before."
"Because if we started, I was afraid I'd confess I was into you."
"Huh."
"Yeah. So, are we cool? Because it's going be very awkward if we aren't."
"We're absolutely cool," I said.
"Oh my god that is such a relief," he said.
We walked on in silence for a bit more, and tossed our empty cups into a bin. As we waited to cross the street, Vic had another question.
"So I gotta ask. Did coach put you on steroids or something? Because you *are* definitely bigger than you were at the pool party."
"Real talk?" I asked. "No. But something is definitely going on. I'm just not sure what...."
Honestly, that was a real concern.
The last few days, I'd kind of been living a fantasy, and yesterday had been the pinnacle of that. I'd wanted to be a little bigger, and my dream had come true.
