Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 8

 Chapter 8: Playtime

Written by Proto

April's eyes slowly, lazily opened. The pillow her head rested on was so comfortable as it's soft body wrapped around her head, hair undoubtedly left askew and matted. A beam of light cut visibly through the air, dust particles illuminated in their endless descent. Her eyelids closed heavily again,as sleep beckoned her once more. She was brought back to a semi conscious state by movement behind her.She turned her head slowly, seeing a dozing red headed girl next to her. Mai's face was so peaceful April could only smile as she looked on at her sleeping girlfriend. Her weight shifted to the side and Mai's head tilted back slightly, her mouth being left open. April giggled at the sight, thinking it was the cutest thing she'd ever seen. April took this time to glance around Mai's room. It was the first time she'd seen it without the fervor of making out to distract her. The walls were white, with a light blue accent wall. Old beige carpeting was probably the same age as the building,or at least it looked that way. There were a few posters on the wall, Act II: The Father of Death hung proudly above the others on the far wall. A Final Fantasy wall scroll decorated the wall beside the door. Her brown wood finish dressers sat against the wall, also aged but still sturdy. Clearly they were built to last. The queen sized bed they now shared took up a large chunk of the room, but it was still maneuverable. Mai's pink DS sat atop it, an Advance cartridge stuck out awkwardly. Curiosity begged April to leave the bed and explore the rest of the apartment, but a cursory glance at the sleeping beauty next to her, forbid her. One, it would be rude, and two and most importantly; the thought of leaving Mai even for a moment felt unbearable. Instead, April cuddled up next to her,  head resting against Mai's soft arm. She closed her eyes once again and let the warmth of sleep come over her.

She was jolted awake as Mai's body suddenly convulsed and jerked wildly. April leapt back, resting her weight on her palms as her stretched out behind her. An awkward expression crossed Mai's face, who was seemingly already awake. "What...what happened?" April said, trying to gather herself.

"I just...you looked so cute. And I didn't want to wake you up! So we sat there, and then...I tried to hold it back!" Mai was clearly flustered. Her disheveled red bed hair flew to and fro as she spoke with her whole body. "But I'm really bad at sneezing quietly. So I just tried to hold it in and my whole body REVOLTED against me." She flung her arms out reenacting the situation.  "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to wake you up!" April's lips pursed for a moment, as if trying to hold back. Mai's face reddened even more as she worried what she could be thinking. Her lips tightened more and more until it
looked like her face was tying itself in knots. It couldn't be helped any longer and April burst into laughter. Mai smiled awkwardly, trying to figure out what to do. April fell forward, headlong into Mai's chest, still laughing hysterically.

"That is...the best...thing I've ever....had wake me up!" April managed to stutter out between laughing fits.Mai's embarrassment fading she began to laugh as well. She leaned forward, laughing deeply along with hernew girlfriend. April became acutely aware of Mai leaning forward. Her breasts rubbing the back of her head,innocently. April reached up behind her and groped them playfully. Mai squealed and fell back against the headboard. Mai covered herself instinctively, an exaggerated faux offended look across her face.

"Why I have never!" She said in a southern drawl, a coy smile across her face. April jumped on her lap, straddling her thighs. "Then allow me, madam!" She exclaimed grabbing Mai by the head and pulling her into her own breasts. Mai kissed her cleavage between laughs reached around and grabbed April's butt hard. Her body left the bed in shock, legs wrapping around Mai's torso. They suddenly made eye contact, their laughter stopping almost immediately. April lowered herself onto the red heads lap, looking downward into her jade eyes that stared back unblinkingly. April's hands slid up Mai's back into her knotted morning hair. Meanwhile her counterparts fingers danced slowly up her back, drawing her closer. Slowly, their lips connected. The kiss seemed to last a lifetime, yet end all too quickly at the same time. Their soft moist lips departed from one another, as if still under each others spell. April shook her head, "Whoa, that gets me everytime." She said trying to shake off the daze. Mai rubbed her head, "I know, right? I tell ya miss, you're somethin specialful" she smiled. April looked down, she had borrowed some of Mai's pajama's, soft pink shorts and a green tank top. Mai's outfit was basically a palette swap of purple shorts and a red tank. Both shirts hung loosely off their dainty frames. "I guess I'm not that special to look at" Mai said looking down at herself.

"What're you talkin about, sweetie? You're beautiful! That amazing smelling red hair," as she spoke, April tousled her hair roughly, "those green eyes that capture me every time, not to mention those cute boobs of yours!" she mentioned as her hands slid down to fondle her breasts playfully. Mai giggled, "Well from the looks of it, at least I'm bigger than you!" her hands flew to April's bosom and kneaded jokingly.

April's eyebrows cocked to one side. "Is that so?" she asked challengingly. Mai nodded her head, "Let's measure!" she exclaimed excitedly. She wrapped her hand around April's breast, able to fit almost the entire thing in her hand. She squeezed and groped it slightly, also noticing April's soft nipple against her palm. April couldn't help but let out a soft enjoying sigh at the attention she was getting. Mai was confident in her measure and gave herself the same treatment. Trying to keep her hand in the exact same position she placed it against her own breast. It was closed, but her own small mound exceeded it slightly. "SUCCESS!" She laughed aloud as she grabbed the twins excitedly. April gave her an incredulous look. "I demand a recount!" she stated with a fun smile. Mai pretended to roll her eyes, "Alright I'll give you this one more try, tiny" she started as her hand returned to April.

Already she could feel something was different. It wasn't much but noticeably fuller, at least. She groped once more trying to get as much of her breast into her hand as she could. The task was proving harder than before. Her palm became aware of April's nipple hardening against it. Mai's eyes wandered to the other breast, the nipple's presence announced there as well. Mai's hands steadily went from trying to measure the size to simply massaging her breast. April settled down lower into Mai's lap, her legs still straddling her. She reached down, grabbing Mai's hand she lifted it up to her other breast and placed it there purposefully. Mai, understanding the direction began to massage both of them. April's eyes closed as her head leaned back, she let out a long soft sigh. It was then that Mai was sure she felt it. Swelling.

"Oh my g..." she started to speak but couldn't finish her sentence. Right before her eyes, right in her own hands, April's breasts were growing. She rubbed and kneaded them more, trying to entice more growth out of them. Her plan succeeded as the rack that had once been covered by her hands was expanding out and around them. April's breathing quickened as she visibly enjoyed the process. Mai's fingers switched to focusing on smaller targets. They danced lightly around April's nipples, still slightly hardened they were even more visible now that the shirt became tighter around her bust. Her fingers then switched to pinching lightly and rolling her nipples between her fingers. April moaned as she did, coaxing a visible burst of growth as her breasts shot from the already enhanced C to a full D. Their soft skin began to pour over the top of the tank top, Mai felt her hands wrap over the top of the shirt. She longed to pull it down, to unveil their beauty, but was unsure if she could. She felt warmth on the outside of her hands, she glanced up to see April's hands on her own, applying downward pressure. Granting permission. Slowly, Mai pulled down April's shirt, she already felt a familiar dampness between her legs. Inch by inch, more of her beautiful soft skin was shown. Finally she paused as the top of a pink arc appeared. With a soft roll of the fingers against her nipples, Mai pulled the shirt down the rest of the way. April moaned softly as she felt cold air against her soft breasts. Her round pink nipples hardened fully at their final release from prison.  Mai's hands happily made their way back to their job of massaging and groping. Her hands felt warm flesh overlap them as April's breasts continued their march through the alphabet.

They finally came to rest at a full E cup. Mai looked on in awe at their large, round nature. She hefted one up to feel it's body. Both her hands struggled to hold the whole of April's improved endowments. Her body shuttered as Mai's hands continued to explore her expanded breasts. Excitement built up inside Mai as she got an idea. April looked down as Mai slowly lifted one of her large breasts up, opening her mouth she moved to slip the nipple into her mouth. Mai closed her eyes, she felt the tip of April against her lips. The black haired woman shivered in anticipation...

Across the room a loud vibrating phone slipped off the dresser at it belted out "IF you could find some way to be a little bit less afraid of me, you-" before it landed on it's side, silencing the ringtone. The startling sound jolted both lovers out of the moment, as they turned to see the cause of the noise. April shook her head, the motion translating down to her large bosom shaking back and forth as well, "I'm sorry, babe. I didn't silence my phone. That was my sister's ring tone. That probably isn't a good thing..." she sighed. Mai smiled, "I didn't know you had a sister. How big is your family?" April let out a short laugh, "depends on your definition..." April turned back around, leaning forward to kiss Mai, she felt a rumble against her, followed by a loud growl.Both women looked down at Mai's stomach, shocked at the volume and ferocity with which it made itself known. "I felt that!" April exclaimed excitedly. "That was awesome! Make it do it again!!" she bounced on Mai's lap. The red head leaned back against the headboard, "As tempting as that is, I'd rather shut it up. Why am I so damn hungry?"April glanced at the clock, "well it is pushing eleven. What do you have to eat around here?" Mai gave her heaving bosom a lustful glance, "Well I know something around here that's looking appealing..." April laughed and pulled one arm up and across her rack defensively. "First things first, sweetie. Let's get some breakfast." Mai frowned disapprovingly, "I have cereal..." she offered. April nodded, "Cereal it is!" With another short vibration and a screaming "MASENKOO HAAAAA!" April sighed, "Now they're texting me. It must be important." She dismounted Mai and dragged her feet over to the phone, picked it up and read the message. A moment of panic swept visibly across her face before she regained her composure. Mai noticed and gave her a worried look. April's sky blue eyes instead lit up as she struck a cute pose, arms at her side, she leaned forward slightly, round full breasts hovering beautifully in front of her, "Now where's that cereal?"

Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 7

Chapter 7: Knight in Writer's Blocked Armor

Words by: Proto


"Is there anything as disheartening as a blank computer screen?" Cid's voice filled his studio apartment as he leaned back in his chair. Music flowed out from his small computer speakers inspiring him to be the best. Got to be the best. Got to change the world.  His hands ran through his thick dark hair and rubbed his neck roughly. "Must…work…avoid…internet…" he muttered to himself as he found his urge to write waning even further. A cursory glance around the room made him acutely aware of the letter posted up on his whiteboard. It was from his editor, reminding him that the deadline for his next book was encroaching upon them rather quickly. He leaned forward in his chair, gaze returning to the flashing cursor at the top of his word document.  "You write one decent book and suddenly they're breakin down the door for more. If only it worked that way…" His hands flung across the keyboard pressing keys at random. He stood up quickly and began to pace around the room impatiently. How do pros do this? He thought to himself, just sit around all day and write best sellers. Life seemed so much easier when he had a regular job. He shook his head, freeing him of such thoughts. He had made a decision to become a full time writer and would follow through.  Cid's eyes wandered to the clock, it was already almost 6 in the evening already. The sun had almost completely set and he hadn't seen the light of day at all today. As if clairvoyance was an app on his phone, it buzzed with a text message notification. It was from his friend, Dave.

"If you can peel yourself away from that novel that I'm sure you're totally busy writing and not spending the whole day on Rage Comics, meet me down at the Dubliner for a beer. Friday nights ain't the same with you big guy."  Cid smiled and responded, "I'll dodge your accusation by saying that was a run on sentence. Also, 'ain't' ain't a word, homeboy. See you at 7." The irish pub was around the corner from his apartment so he had plenty of time for the first shower of the day. He cleaned up and got dressed in a typical black t shirt that fit well, strong shoulders and arms framed clearly. His fitted jeans buttoned  up and he slid his wallet and phone into his pockets. After a last minute check list of pocket patting, he walked out the door. As he strode to the bar, his thoughts filled, as usual, with thoughts of a certain red headed barista at the local coffee shop. Her soft bangs that hung down over her face, jade eyes that were filled to brim with happiness. He couldn't help but even remember her soft breasts that her apron curved around. He admired her cute butt as she worked on the coffee he had ordered that day. Before he knew it, Cid had reached his destination. He pushed the door open as he scanned the bar for Dave. His bright red hair made him easy to spot on the far side, sitting on a stool with two beers already waiting. Cid made his way there, his dark brown hair still wet from the shower felt cool air as he walked under the air conditioner vent.  Dave turned and waved to him excitedly, his brown long sleeve shirt hung baggily over his frame. Cid sat down the stool next to him, "Is this seat taken, big boy?" he asked jokingly. Dave's eyebrows cocked suggestively, "Turn it upside down and we can both fit on there, ya know". Cid closed his eyes and leaned back, trying to erase the image that was now haunting his mind. "Oh man! That was just gross!" he laughed "How am I gonna get that shit out of my head. Damn."

Dave slapped his back, "just think about your girlfriend over at 50k. What's her name? May?" he asked. Cid laughed and shook his head, "Mai, or so her nametag says. And she's not my girlfriend. Hell, I don't even think she knows I exist." Dave nodded in agreement, "Not that your last performance wasn't TOTALLY memorable or anything. I mean, how could she not be swept off her feet with Jackie Chan banter?" the ginger teased him. Cid hit his arm with a light backhand. "C'mon man, you know that took some cojones. I haven't seen you make a move on our resident irish lass here!" Cid retorted. "Yeah, but I haven't been pining like you have over May. Tell me, how many times did you go into that coffee shop to see her before you worked up the nerve to actually talk to her?" Dave grilled him. Cid laughed, "Again, it's Mai. Maybe you're got too much hair in your ears again. And, far more than I'd care to admit. I tell ya though, this is weird. It's not my MO, ya know?" Dave shrugged as he took a drink of his brew, "I'll give ya that. I've never seen you so worked up over a girl. You've always been so smooth. You need to get your groove back, son." Cid took a large swig of his Newcastle, "Yeah, maybe I just need a little liquid courage." He said motioning to the bottle in his hand.  Dave made a face, "I can guarantee you, that will not end well. Remember New Years 2010? You really want a repeat of THAT incident? I'm sure Mai doesn't want to wake up with that much giraffe hair in the backseat of her car, and I am NOT bailing your goofy ass out of jail again." Cid let out a hearty laugh and lifted his beer to his friend's, "I'll drink to that. Good times…" Dave lifted his, tapping the bottle against his friends, "Yeah they were…" they let out a collective sigh and drank once again. Cid placed his bottle back on the bar, "I do wonder, though, what's she doing right now?" Dave shrugged, "A classy gal like that? Probably reading or watching more Jackie Chan flicks."

Meanwhile, across town.  "RAAAAUUUGGHHHH!!" Mai screamed as she jumped out from around the corner trying to scare April. She succeeded. April stumbled back towards the shut door to the living room, "Whoa-ho-shiiiiiii-" she tried to catch her balance but fell backward through the door, landing on the floor with a thud. Mai rubbed her eyes as she stood in shock. The door was still shut.  Had she just seen what she thought she saw? April phased through the door!" She got up and ran to the door, across her bedroom. Just as she got close, it swung open and hit her square in the forehead. She fell back a few steps and onto the bed. April was standing there horrififed, "Oh god babe! Are you okay?" she yelped as she leapt onto the bed next to her, touching her forehead tenderly. Mai's hand reached up and rubbed her head, too. She could already feel a knot forming. "That's gotta be record time. We've been dating for like, 16 hours and you're already beating me?" Mai said with a smile. April's cheeks puffed up as she frowned disapprovingly. "I didn't mean to beat you with the door! It just..happened! I didn't know you were there and I wanted to come back and explain the whole crazy going through stuff power.  So I swung the door open and your face makes a better door stop than the cheap one I have at my place. Seriously, you should market that." April joked as she leaned over to kiss her girlfriend's aching head. Mai giggled, "Get over here and make me feel better, wall walking through girlfriend. Literally" she smiled as April leaned further over to kiss her on the lips. "My pleasure, shockingly accepting girlfriend," the raven haired beauty responded. "You can't surprise me anymore. I'm just along for the ride now," Mai barely managed to finish her sentence before their lips locked passionately as Mai rolled them over on the bed, planting herself on top. April's hands slid up Mai's legs from her knees up her thighs and hips to her butt, firm through her jeans, she couldn't help herself and she gave it a nice squeeze. Mai squealed and leapt up, landing next to her on the bed giggling, "Sorry! That just really tickled" the red head offered apologetically. A mischievous smile came across April's lips, "Oh that's no problem. But you're in trouble now" her hand slowly sliding across the bed. Mai leaned back trying to figure out what she meant. Suddenly, April leapt forward, her fingers bent like claws, she began to tickle Mai's legs and thighs, causing her to laugh and kick uncontrollably. April only barely dodged a few kicks and knees, as well as flailing arms as Mai's laughs filled the apartment.

Hours later, in the bar Dave found himself on the toasty side of a few too many beers. Cid, expecting this, had kept to nursing only a couple beers as he'd be stuck driving his drunk friend home. The bartender came by and dropped off their tab for the evening. Cid eyed it and pulled his wallet out when something across the bar got his attention. A young blonde woman was trying, quite ineffectively, to free herself from a man's grasp. She took a step away, trying to wrench her arm free, but the man pulled her back roughly. Cid glanced over at the bartender who was at the other end, talking to a cute patron. His gaze shifted back to the unhappy couple, he was vaguely aware of Dave making comments about what a dick the man was.  Finally, she broke free of his grasp and fell back a step regaining her balance. The man stood up and raised his hand to her, she shrunk back covering her face in fear. This was not the first time something like this had happened. Cid sighed and took a last drink of his beer. He placed the empty bottle down on the bar and stood up. Dave shook his head and turned to watch. The blonde woman choked back tears as the man stared down at her angrily. A rough hand grabbed him by the shoulder and spun him around hard, "I believe the young lady wants to leave. Why not be a gentleman and oblige her?" Cid asked, still holding the man's shoulder. He was a few inches shorter, a stocky build and dirty hands meant he worked hard for a living. "Who the hell do you think you are? Get the fuck out of my face. She's my bitch and I'll do what I like!" he shook free of Cid's grasp and turned around. He wrenched the girls arm and dragged her out the back door out of the bar into the alley. Dave tapped on the shoulder of a stranger sitting next to him at the bar, "Now he's screwed."

Cid cracked his neck and rolled his shoulder as he walked quickly out grabbing his jacket and heading out the back door following them. He entered the alley to see the man forcing himself on the young woman behind a dumpster. His hand roughly jerked at the zipper on her back. She tried to push him off, but was met with a hard slap that stunned her long enough for him to break the zipper altogether. Before he knew what happened, the man was lifted off the ground and hurled back against the wall. He glanced back to see the young woman trying to hold her dress up, "Here. Take this" he said tossing his jacket toward her. She clung to it, covering up as best she could. Cid's attention turned to the would be rapist who had since picked himself up off the ground. "You just couldn't mind your own fuckin business, huh?" he said balling up his fists, and hunching forward. Cid stood up straight, his own hands loose, "Not as long as you can't keep your hands to yourself." The man growled as he dashed forward headlong toward Cid. With a simple side step, he deftly dodged the charge and gripped the attacker's shirt base and collar. A hard pull allowed Cid to throw him off balance and head first into the dumpster behind them. Enraged the man got back up running forward swinging his fists wildly. Cid watched the man's shoulders ducking and dodging the assault. The man unleashed a wide haymaker, Cid's feet planted as he bent his knees and brought his arms up, defensively. The blow connected with his blocking stance perfectly. Cid gripped the man's arm tight, pulling him forward, once again using his momentum against him. He pulled the man's weight over his shoulder throwing him to the ground with a loud thud.  The man tried to get up once again but a shadow cast over him. He looked up to see Cid towering above tensed biceps stretching his shirt sleeves, "If you get up, it had better be to leave." He said with conviction that could kill. The beaten and scared man scrambled back on his hands and feet before getting up and booking it out of the alley. By now, Dave and few patrons from the bar had made their way into the alley. Cid turned back to the young woman, "Are you okay, ma'am?" he asked, his countenance suddenly softening incredibly. He extended his hand out to her. Shakily she took it, and he helped her up and back into the bar. "C'mon,  let's call you a cab." The woman, still speechless and shocked sat silently in the booth next to her rescuer and his apparently drunken friend. Shortly thereafter, the cab arrived for the young lady. Cid helped her into the car and closed the door for her. Before the cab left the window rolled down and the blonde woman's face emerged, "Th-thank you…so much…What's your n-n-name?" She stammered. "Cid," he smiled. "Now get on home you need rest." The car drove off into the city, tail lights vanishing around the corner. Dave leaned on Cid heavily, "Bro, tell me you got her number." Cid smiled and shook his head, "Only one girl out there for me, man. I just gotta hope she feels the same someday." Dave shook his head, "you're killin me, Smalls.

Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 6

Written By: Proto

Chapter 6: Titles

"She's your girlfriend." Milly's voice filled the silent back room. She was an older woman, in her mid fifties probably, with soft blonde hair sprinkled with grays. Her blue eyes were always warm and friendly, though her tongue could cut like a knife. If her years had taught her anything it was that beating around the bush was a pointless exercise. She could always be counted on to tell it how she saw it. And, that's exactly what she was doing.

"She is not my…you know…that!" Mai scrubbed the pot she had in her hands even harder as she felt her face ignite with embarrassment. She had been going on dates with April for a couple months now but the title had never been officially bestowed upon them. Though, internally , Mai had been longing for it recently. She cared for April so deeply and wanted nothing more than to call April hers and say she belonged to the raven haired beauty. To truly be together, for the world to see and know. To stand on top of a mountain and exclaim it was all Mai wanted to do. But alas, she could not. Yet.
"Why are you so afraid of that word? There's nothing wrong with you two kids being an item. I've seen how happy she makes you. All you have to do is ask and make it official. If she's half the lady she appears to be, there's only one answer." Milly smiled as she walked over and rubbed Mai's back. The red head smiled back and nodded. "But, if I ask…won't that make me…the 'guy'?" she asked worriedly. Milly threw her head back and let out a hearty laugh. "Dear, I have no idea how lesbian relationships work. But I don't think either of you can be labeled so easily." That was the first time Mai had considered herself the L word. But it was true, it just sounded strange. The rest of the shift carried on without much event. Mai left the shop around ten and headed home, the whole way her mind was filled with thoughts of what her co-worker had said earlier. Was she afraid? No, that couldn't be it. Are titles really that important, anyway? Yes, they are. Shut up. She reached her apartment building and took the slow creaky elevator up to her floor. As she neared her apartment it suddenly hit Mai how tired she was. The door slowly swiveled open as she lumbered inside like a zombie. Without breaking stride she dropped her purse and keys on the floor as she made her way trudging to the bedroom. Like a tree in the woods her whole body fell forward and collapsed on her bed. Within moments she was sound asleep.

When she woke up her whole apartment was filled with flowers of every color. Red roses, yellow hibiscus, blue iris', every color of every flower imaginable. She leapt out of bed with a start and looked around confusedly. She heard a sound from the kitchen and she crept over to investigate. Slowly, the pushed the door open and saw a figure in the kitchen. Fear gripped her as she closed the door, leaning her body against it. Who the hell was that? Where the hell did these flowers come from? Where the hell is the bat she kept just for moments like this? Ah, hell this sucks. Mai's eyes shut tight as she tried to figure out what she was going to do. The cops! Call the cops. She scanned the room for her phone but couldn't spot it anywhere. "Dammit…" she muttered to herself as she realized it was in her purse that she so intelligently dropped in the entryway when she got home. Why did she have to be so tired. Curses! Her heart skipped a beat as it leapt into her throat when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Sweetie…? Is that you?" a familiar voice called from the other side. "Breakfast is ready. Hurry up and eat before it gets cold. You don't wanna be late to work!" Mai's eyes shot open as she recognized the voice. She spun on her heel, "April…?" The door opened slowly, light from the kitchen filled the bedroom. Sure enough, there she was standing right before Mai. Apron clad, spatula in hand and smile spread across her face. Mai rubbed her head confusedly, but April simply grabbed her hand and led her to the table. She sat down with a thud as April brought a plate of bacon and eggs over with a side of pancakes. Mai looked down at it worriedly, "This looks delicious, babe. But I don't think I can eat this much…" April smiled and waved it off dismissively, "You better! You'll need your strength to get through the day at the steel mill. You're not gonna get that promotion to foreman if you don't keep your energy up!" Mai felt a wave of confusion come over her, "Steel…mill?" she said quietly. She caught a glimpse of herself in the TV reflection. A burly man with a thick red beard was staring back at her. Mai shrieked and fell back out of her chair. The fall from her bed to the floor woke her up with a start. She jumped up, nearly out of her skin, as she bounded for the bathroom. The light stung her eyes but she didn't care, she needed to see her reflection. Finally, her eyes adjusted to the brightness and she immediately felt huge relief. Her reflection stared back with the same visage as always, a small red headed girl with shimmering green eyes. She sat on the toilet seat next to her, "just…just a dream…" but the dream had left her feeling even more uneasy.
She spent the next morning playing video games and thinking about what Milly had said the previous day. Only one answer. We defy labels, anyway. "I want this relationship to move forward. I have to make an effort. No more sitting back!" Mai leapt up from the ground, "Do you hear me, world? I will make April mine!" Through all kinds of irony, her phone started to ring, Mai paused the game with her toe and answered the phone in a fake Italian accent, "Salute, Claudia!" On the other end of the phone, April responded with a laugh, "I'm sorry I don't have the book for you to look at!" both women laughed, and Mai sat back down on her couch. "What's up, sweetie?" she asked.

"Well I know the fair is still in town and I was curious if you wanted to go. I also have a way in to that museum gala tonight in the city. Do either of those interest you?" April quizzed. Mai kicked her feet in the air for a few moments with audible hmms and haws. "Weeellll, I did want to talk to you about a couple things tonight. The gala sounds fancy and I DO love a chance to dress up for you" she smiled into the phone. "Well it sounds like you have your mind made up then! I'll pick you up at 8?" April's happy response came through the phone. Even though Mai's old phone didn't have the best speaker quality, hearing April's crackled and distorted voice still brought butterflies to her stomach and a smile to her face. The rest of the day continued on as usual, games and a long shower. Before long, Mai slipped into a small black dress. It clung to her figure, exemplifying her figure. Her small bosom was enhanced slightly by a push up bra, and the dress' cut showed of her hips well, tapering into her cute butt. She spent an hour on her hair, trying to get the perfect curls in the back of the bun she had pulled her hair up into. Then the final step of making her bangs hang perfectly over her face. She had the plan worked out perfectly; they'd spend a lovely evening at the gala, laughing and being classy, making jokes that were not classy at all at the expense of other guests. Then they'd leave and go she'd make sure they went to the scenic point above the lake, where she'd ask the official question. April would say yes and immense making out would ensue. Mai looked at herself in the mirror and nodded in approval of the plan.

At 8 o'clock sharp, there was a knock on the door. Mai squealed excitedly and leapt over. She grabbed her clutch purse and swung it open. April was standing there in a striking blue dress that made the blue in her eyes seem to leap out and increase in brightness tenfold. Mai lunged at her, their arms wrapped around each other as their lips collided in a passionate kiss, "I've missed you, dear" Mai murmured between kisses. April laughed, "I know! What has it been? 48 hours?" Mai planted a firm kiss, "47 too many" The two descended in the elevator, "So what was it that you wanted to talk about?" April asked as her fingers wrapped around Mai's. "Oh it can wait. I figured maybe after the gala we could go the lookout point by the lake?" she responded. April shrugged, "Yeah no problem. Seems like you have quite the plan, would you mind driving then? I have the directions in my purse," she patted a small bag on her shoulder. Mai nodded and they headed into the parking lot hand in hand. They reached Mai's car as she began digging around for her keys in her purse. When she grabbed them she lifted them high above her triumphantly. April cleared her throat to get Mai's attention. Mai glanced over to her, "Well if I'm your date to this fancy gala, maybe I should blend in with the other women there!" She closed her eyes and exhaled slowly, her breasts began to swell forward in her dress. Mai's mouth dropped open in awe as she watched the amazing show. April's bosom pushed forward in her dress, cleavage forming a deep valley in the now plunging neckline. In Mai's awestruck daze, she dropped her keys and they bounced off her head with a clang and landed under the car. April cringed and brought her hands up to her mouth, "Are you okay, babe? That looked painful!"

Mai rubbed her head, "I'm fine, that was embarrassing. My keys also managed to somehow slide under my car. I've never understood how they can do that" she continued as she shimmied down to the parking lot ground, "I mean , REALLY, don't the laws of physics say it should just hit the ground and stop. What's with this ability for them to launch themselves under the nearest large household appliance or vehicle I mean really. Plus it's so freakin dark down here I swear I could just…" Suddenly a light appeared on the other of the car, like a warm glow. Then two more appeared and their gaze shifted back in forth in tandem. After a moment Mai realized that the light itself was coming from April's eyes and hand. "Yeah another handy power of mine. Illuuummiinaaaatttiiioooooonnnn!" she said with a vibrato in her voice for effect. Mai giggled and watched on as the soft glow continued to light up the under of her car. April reached out and grabbed the keys which had somehow slid across to the passenger side, "Now that IS impressive!" April exclaimed and laughed. They each stood back up, April's eyes and hands still glowing warmly. Mai smiled, "Wow, talk about headlights." The glow from the black haired woman's eyes shifted as a cock eyed expression came across her face. Mai rubbed her neck, "I'm sorry, I couldn't pass that one up." April's glow faded into darkness once again and she laughed, "Oh no it's fine. I too am a fan of terrible puns! But we should get going! We don't wanna be too late. All the good food will be gone!" The drive to the downtown part of the city was filled with bright lights and flashing signs. "So! You glow, too?" Mai asked curiously. "How is that workin out for ya?" she smiled. April giggled, "Yeah I can. It's pretty swell, actually. Just my hands and eyes, though. It's nice to use for moment like earlier. Never worried much about a night light, just WOOSH, used my hand."

It wasn't long before they reached their destination and Mai found a parking spot not far at all, luckily. They strode into the museum eager to see the elaborate displays, crazy food on the tables, and, most importantly, the wide array of guests. Once inside, they wandered the halls examining the exhibits, but none of it really stood out as that interesting. Disappointedly, the couple made their way to the table covered with more hors d'oeuvres than they even knew existed. Mai picked up a plate and began to look at her choices. April took a double take at the plate of chocolate covered strawberries, and visibly held back a laugh. "What are you laughing at?" Mai inquired, wanting to laugh too. April waved her hand, "Nothing. I just heard something funny." Mai's eyes narrowed as confusion once again crept over her. April's eyes lit up again, "Oh! I'm so sorry! I completely forgot to tell you. I can hear thoughts of delicious food. " Mai laughed, leaning against April's shoulder. She wrapped her arm around her red headed date and held her tight. Mai glanced around for something to test the ability on. She picked up a strange asparagus, egg and spinach concoction, "What's it thinking?!" she posed excitedly. April smirked and rested her hand on Mai's, "I meant I read PEOPLE'S thoughts ABOUT delicious foods..." They paused for a moment and both laughed together heartily. Mai looked up, "Any other powers I should know about?" April shrugged, "all in due time, sweetie. All in due time." April's gaze shifted to a couple that had just entered the museum, a woman in a beautiful yellow gown, and her date in a black tux with a yellow vest and tie to match. April's hand slid from Mai's back to her hand, "come on, babe. Let's go. This party isn't really working out". Mai nodded in agreement and they made their exit.
"Would you mind terribly if we went to the fair for a bit? I know you wanted to go to the lake, but I feel like this gala was kinda a bust." April asked shyly. "Oh I'd love to! I'm sorry, I chose to come here. I thought it'd be…I dunno…more interesting. But never mind that! To the fair!" The two departed once again for their new destination. Before long they found themselves in fairgrounds, surrounded by whirling lights and laughing children. A rollercoaster screamed across the way, and a tilt-a-whirl spun wildly aways from that. They exchanged an ecstatic look and ran straight in, hand in hand. The night was a blur from there. They started in the carnival area, playing games to win each other stuffed animals. Mai pointed to the outrageously large Curious George and April nodded. They tried time after time to toss the ring around the bottles. After spending far more money than the stuffed animal was worth, April finally sunk the final ring. The carnie smiled, unhooked the monkey and handed him over. Mai slung him over her back and held the hands around her shoulders, giving him a piggy back ride. April laughed and the two bound off toward the next area of the fair. They rode ponies in formal dresses, and ate cotton candy that smudged their lipstick. They stood across from each other on the tilt-a-whirl and Mai couldn't help but marvel at April's beauty as her hair flew to the side, her sky blue eyes staring straight back at her. Mai had never felt happier to run around and just have fun with someone before. The roller coaster beckoned them and they answered the call. The car came over the crest of the biggest drop the coaster had. Mai and April clung to each other as it plummeted down hundreds of feet and banked hard to the side. April felt Mai's body against her own, and she wished it would never leave her side. She looked over at the gorgeous green eyed girl sitting beside her laughing, having the time of her life. Her whole life, April had never felt anything like this before. Maybe her family was wrong all along…Just maybe

They staggered off the roller coaster and saw in the distance the tunnel of love. It was cheesy, but this may be Mai's perfect chance. This evening had gone even better than she could have imagined, what better time than now. Wordlessly, they exchanged glances and dashed toward the ride. However, upon reaching it, they found it out of order. Disappointment hit Mai like a ton of bricks, but she was having too fun of a night to let this spoil it. April turned to face Mai, their hands still intertwined, not knowing where her fingers ended and Mai's hand begun. It was so nice to feel this way, finally. "What was it you wanted to talk about?" April asked. Mai smiled, the time had come. It wasn't the top of the view, it wasn't the tunnel of love. But it was as good a time as any. Why not now? "Well…these last couple months with you have been…the best time of my life. And, I like you…so much. Soooo much," she laughed. April listened on in smiling silence. "You're just so amazing, in every way. Not even just because of you amazing powers. But because you're…you. And I love that. I wanted to know if you-" with a boom, the fair's fireworks show drowned out the rest of Mai's words. April laughed and held her hand to her ear, "What? I missed that last part?" Mai tried again, "I want y-" BOOM filled their air once again. Mai, irritated and somewhat embarrassed, waved her hand and mouthed "never mind. Let's get out of here!" April smiled and nodded.

They drove back to Mai's apartment, Curious George riding in the back, buckled in of course. After a car ride full of laughter and kisses, they reached their destination. Mai stood at the front door of her apartment and April right in front of her, preparing to say good night. They stood face to face, eyes staring deeply into each other's. It felt like an eternity of silence, "I guess this is good night…" April slowly said. Mai nodded in agreement but her mouth spoke differently, "You don't have to go…if you don't want to…" Their gaze still unblinking, unbreaking, "You're right…would you mind if I stayed…" the two leaned in towards each other slowly waiting for the answer to come. Mai's lips parted enough to kiss when the answer came, "Please do…Stay" Their lips met in a kiss the likes of which neither had ever seen. They stumbled together into the apartment, closing the door behind April. They tangled limbs as they kissed standing in the entry way, making their way to the bedroom clumsily knocking over Mai's stand up lamp and purses hit the floor in a thud. They fell in a heap on the bed, finally. Mai's hands flew to April's neck, holding her head in a close kiss. April's hands slid to Mai's hips, keeping her body close. Lips connected, tongues wrestled, hands gripped, hair hung down messily, mouths panted between passionate kisses, legs intertwined. April broke away for a moment, kissing Mai's cheek softly, she rested her head on the nape of Mai's neck. April's heart began to beat even faster, heat filled her face and nervousness shot through her stomach. "Mai…be mine…" she said simply. Mai lifted her face and smiled softly. She planted a tender kiss on April's lips, "I always have been…" The lover's bodies fell limp side by side. Mai scooted closer to April, cuddling close to her. She smiled and they closed their eyes to spend their first official night together.

Power Play: A Lesson in Manners

Written by EchoWing


While inflated by movies and television series, and not quite as prevalent as it was in earlier years to be, malls and similar places were nonetheless still a semi-common gathering place for young people of all ages to shop, eat, or simply hang out with friends. It was the rare weekend that you didn't find a group of teens hanging out together somewhere in a local mall, even if it was just a small one. Such groups rarely caught attention, but on occasion, one or more of those individuals would have little trouble catching it.
"Look at all of them. How absolutely pathetic." With a smug expression on her face, Isabelle Morgan turned up her nose at the various people who passed by in the food court between bites of her meal. "You'd think they'd be embarrassed to go out in broad daylight looking like that."
Sitting at her right, a short-haired brunette looked at her a little warily. "Belle, don't you think you should keep those opinions to yourself? Someone might overhear you."
A laugh. "As if they could hear me over this din, Melanie." Brushing back some of her long blonde hair, Isabelle took a sip from her drink before she continued. "Besides, I can't help that I'm better looking than all of them. There's a reason why all the boys at school can't keep their eyes off me."
"Yeah, but that might not be the case forever." The third girl at their table, who looked to be of Asiatic ancestry, quickly noted, "I mean there is that new girl."
"Please, Nicole." The blonde scoffed. "Have you seen that new girl? She's oversized; her boobs are too big, her butt's too big; hell, her entire body's too big. And no way is that natural." Emphasizing her point with her fork, she added, "And don't even try to bring up whatever muscles she has. I wouldn't be shocked if she used steroids or something."
"Well, that just spoils things, doesn't it?" The three girls looked up in surprise at their newcomer, a girl shorter than the three of them with short hair in a sort of bob and not that remarkable a figure. Their attention now on her, she pointed at the food on their trays and asked, "Where did you get that food? It all looks so delicious."
"The Greek place right over there." Melanie pointed in the direction of the eatery.
"Ooh! Thank you!" With a grin on her face, the strange girl wandered off.
The three girls watched her departure, but Nicole was the first to react. "Well that was odd."
"Odd?" Isabelle looked at her friend with surprise. "Some weirdo flat girl strides up, interrupts our conversation, and asks where we got our food, and you call it odd? That was just rude! Honestly, don't they have institutions for people like her?"
Just within earshot of the trio and slightly out of sight, the girl heard their comments and sadly shook her head. April wasn't really one to care about how an individual looked; with her abilities, such things as that were trivial at best. She did think that this 'Belle' girl was rather pretty for a normal sort of girl, though that only redeemed her so much. She was crass, rude, and quite full of herself. A devious grin crossed her lips, and she started thinking about what the girl had said about this 'new girl'. There were a number of reasons to make such remarks about a person, but the only reason to get so disparaging was simple jealousy. Well, if she was jealous of this new girl's assets, then why not give her something comparable?
"Anyway, as I was saying." Isabelle took a sip from her drink and continued, "What guy would go for a girl like her anyway? I mean, who's attracted to wannabe Amazons? Comic book geeks? Mouth-breathing losers? Dorks? Steroid freaks? I'm a lot better looking than she is, and my boobs are much…"
It was right then that Isabelle became consciously aware of a tightness across her chest. She looked down to find that, slowly but visibly, her breasts were growing. Her two friends had similarly taken notice, and were now staring in complete and utter surprise at her sudden growth spurt. Before any of them could comment upon it, however, she all but jumped from her seat in shock and made a beeline for the nearest public restroom.
Melanie looked at Nicole in complete shock and surprise. "Did her breasts just…?"
"Uh-huh."
A quick look, and she then asked, "Are yours…?"
"Uh-uh."
"Mine aren't either." She slumped and noted, "That's not fair."
Nicole slumped and echoed, "Not one bit."

Hoping to God that the restroom was empty, Isabelle parked herself in front of the mirrors and looked herself over, then pinched herself briefly. It was official – she wasn't hallucinating, and her breasts really were bigger than before. But it didn't make any sense! Breasts didn't just spontaneously grow! There had to be some explanation for how this…!
"So, do you like them?"
She all but screamed at the voice, turning to her left to find the weird girl from earlier looking at her with a placid grin on her face. Or rather, just her head, with the rest of her following as she slowly walked backwards through a wall, prompting more screaming and frantically backing away.
"What the…?! What the hell kind of freak are you?!"
April feigned being hurt. "Well that's not a nice thing to say to someone who's done you a favor. I made your boobs nice and big and firm, and here you are calling me a freak. That's just rude."
Shock and fear starting to give way to anger, Isabelle stammered slightly before collecting herself and barking, "Listen, I don't know who you are or what you are, but I didn't ask for my boobs to be bigger! Put them back to normal, or else!"
April really doubted that the blond girl before her could actually do anything to hurt her, but if she didn't want them, then fine. A few kinder words would've been appreciated, but still, if she wanted her breasts back to normal, then so be it. She shrugged. "Okay. Back to normal then."
Isabelle grinned with some satisfaction, only to suddenly feel the same tightness as before working across the rest of her body. She looked down at herself, then at her reflection, and while her bustline looked smaller in comparison to the rest of her, it hadn't gotten smaller – the rest of her had just gotten bigger! "What did you do?! I didn't ask for this!"
"You asked to be put back to normal. I made you properly proportional with your new breast size. That's normal."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I –!" Isabelle's screams of protest halted as she began to feel the tightness return across her body. "What are you doing now?!"
"I'm not…" April's eyes suddenly widened with surprise, and she realized what was going on. "Ooh, I think I used a little too much juice. You might want to get out of this restroom."
The tightness starting to decrease around her body even as her growth seemed to accelerate, Isabelle frantically yelled, "Get out?! Are you nuts?! I'm not going out there like this!!"
April shrugged as she walked out of the restroom door. "Fine. Grow in a confined space. Cause untold amounts of property damage. Ruin your clothes. At least out there, it'll be minimized, but hey, if that's what you want."
Isabelle was already starting to bump her head on the ceiling, forcing her to hunch down. She didn't like the idea of going out into the rest of the mall and embarrassing herself, but she liked the idea of being stuck in the bathroom even less.

"I'm starting to wonder why she's so obsessed with proving her superiority to Alex. Seriously, it's like she's got this incredible inferiority complex all of a sudden, and she just has to make sure that everyone knows that she's better than them."
"Look at the bright side. She's nowhere near as smart as Lex Luthor." Melanie looked towards the restroom door with concern. "You know, she's taking an awful long time to adjust her bra."
Nicole was far less worried. "Well, she's got a lot more to fill it with now. Let's just hope she doesn't drag us off to Victoria's Secret and…"
Her words were interrupted as Isabelle burst out of the restroom, scrambling to get out and gasping with relief as she emerged. Both girls, however, found themselves slack-jawed in surprise at the fact that her entire body had gotten bigger, and she was still growing. Suddenly glad that their meals were pretty much done, the two got up and rushed to her as she began to sputter in panic. "Melanie! Nicole! Girl! Freak! Boobs! Growing!"
"Whoa, Belle, calm down!" Trying to keep her friend from freaking out even further and creating a scene, Melanie approached and told her, "Whatever's going on, panicking won't help us solve this problem! Now, let's get you out of here before everyone else starts panicking!"
"Um, Mel? I don't think that's a part of the problem." Nicole pointed at the number of people scattered throughout the food court, not one of whom had reacted to Isabelle's sudden and unexpected growth into a mini-giantess. "Either this is the single most apathetic bunch of mall-goers in the world, or something weird is going on here."
"Yeah, that'd be me." All three turned their heads to find April waving back at them, a slightly nervous grin on her face. "Hi again."
"You!" Rage clear on her face, Isabelle called, "You did this to me!"
Melanie moved to block her friend's vision as best she could. "Yeah, and she's keeping the crowds from going nuts!"
"And keeping you from going naked too." Heads turned as Nicole noted, "What? Her clothing should at least have some rips in it by now if she was growing in size. It's obviously growing with her." She then turned to April and asked, "Are you like Q from 'Star Trek' or something?"
April shrugged. "Or something."
Melanie looked at April in confusion. "Wait, so why are we fully aware of this craziness?"
"Oh, you noticed the initial changes. I can't stop you from noticing everything afterwards even if I wanted to."
"Ahem!" All attention turned back to Isabelle, by now kneeling in order to try and keep herself somewhere close to eye level with the other girls. "Who cares why they're aware of all this?! Just put me back!"
"Well, I'd like to, but you've got to do something else first."
"I'll pay you whatever you want! My mom's rich!"
"Belle, I think she means ask her politely. Say 'please' and all that."
A groan. "Fine! Please change me back!"
A satisfied smile formed on her face, and April snapped her right thumb and middle fingers, a bright flash going over all four of them. When it subsided, Isabelle was back to her normal size, seemingly none the worse for wear, her clothing back to normal right along with her. Both her friends looked at the reality-warping being in their midst as she offered, "So, anything I can do for you two?"
"We're fine, thank…"
"Come on you two, let's get out of here!" Isabelle quickly got to her feet as she interrupted Melanie's polite refusal, turned and strode as far away from April as possible. Part of it was simple frustration, but most of it was complete fear. How could that freak have the gall to embarrass her like that, and more importantly, what was stopping it from happening again?
Nicole followed, but Melanie politely said before chasing after them, "Nice meeting you!"
April watched them go and shook her head sadly. Clearly, not everyone could stand a lesson in manners.

The End

Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 5

Written by Proto
 Chapter 5: A New Challenger!

"HIYAH!" A shout filled the apartment as Mai air kicked into the living room.  After years of hearing about how great it was, Mai had finally rented Rumble in the Bronx.  It was an early Jackie Chan movie sure to be chock full of martial arts goodness. The living room was simple enough, a TV that sat on top of rack full of movies and games across from her couch. Every time she looked at it, Mai remembered the first night with April and she couldn't help but smile.  Mai punched the air toward her TV before winding up for her finishing move. She pulled her hands behind her "Gaaaaalliiiicccccck…" she readied. Her hand launched forward as she prepared to hit the play button with her index finger and finish the technique.  Before she could unleash all her button pressing fury on the dvd player, she was distracted by a sound from the bedroom. Her text message sound was screaming "BABIES!! THEY'RE BAAAABIIEEESSS!"  from across the apartment.  She perked up and bounced excitedly to her phone, hoping to see her favorite five letter name on the screen.  Her happiness came to an abrupt end when she saw Daryl's name on the cover. She put it back on the bed, pretending she didn't see it but curiosity got the better of her and she opened the message. "Emergency! Milly called out. Need help in shop. Cover?" Mai's head fell back as she exhaled loudly. She already knew there was only one answer to the text. This was the downside to working in a small shop with an even smaller staff. She sent her affirmative reply and shuffled to the closet to get her work clothes out. Shortly thereafter she was speed walking in the fading sunlight toward the shop. Being the best barista in the joint had its ups and downs. She rarely had to work evenings but in emergencies was always the first and most reliable to call. She walked in the shop's double doors and walked into the backroom to put her stuff down. Daryl was there getting supplies while the front was unoccupied for the moment.

"Looks like a real busy night out there," Mai said dryly motioning to said empty counter. Her boss frowned, "I'm sorry, hun. Milly called out and I panicked. You know I can't run this place by myself even on a slow night. I need someone. Hell, I needed YOU. Nobody knows this shop and nobody knows coffee like you." Mai unsure of what kind of compliment that was cocked her eyebrows, "You sure know how to sweep me off my feet, Daryl. I'll be up front" she tried to muster a laugh to temper the sting from her harsh voice but managed only a small chuckle. Mai then proceeded to man the front desk for what may have been the slowest night in the coffee shop's history. She tried everything to pass the time, wiping down the counter, cleaning the utensils and even organizing them from largest to smallest. She then reorganized them from useful to useless, then by color, by shape.  She reached the point where she was balancing pens on the counter behind her, talking to herself as nobody else would hear. "Well look at the bright side, only two more hours! That's far too long. I should be watching Jackie Chan punch people and insist he doesn't want any trouble. Was that even around back then? Jeez, don't you ever shut up? Oh cheer up, only two more hours. Yeah, you're really not helping. What would Jackie do?"

"I believe he would wall jump off that wall and beat up five guys while simultaneously making himself a mocha frap." A voice suddenly spoke up from behind her. She whirled around to see a young man, mid twenties, standing in front of the counter. His brown hair hung down over his face in a disheveled fashion. A warm smile parted his lips welcomingly. "He always struck me as a cold drink type of guy. Not one to sit around waiting for things to cool off. He's got trouble to not cause, right?" For a moment Mai was completely dumbfounded. Who was this stranger? Why was he talking to her? Oh! Customer. Right. She stepped forward, a confused look on her face, "I'm sorry?" she offered trying to find out what the man was talking about. He laughed and shook his head, "No, I'm sorry. I overheard you talking to yourself about Jackie Chan and I tried to make a dumb joke. My bad" he waved his hand dismissively.  Mai's face lit up "OHHH! I get it! I'm kinda slow tonight, bear with me!" she smiled rubbing her forehead embarrassedly. "So, fellow Jackie fan, what can I get you tonight?" The stranger gazed up at the menu and finally decided on a ice tea lemonade. "I too do not have time to let things cool down. I have to many asses to kick. You know how it is," he laughed. Mai nodded along laughing, "Can I get your name?" With a nod the young man responded, "Cid."

Mai quickly turned around and busied herself as Cid took a seat next to the bar and slid his PSP out to show his friend at the table something on the screen. In the backroom, Mai could hear her phone ringing with a special ringtone. April. But she was busy for the first time all evening and the call would have to wait. Rapidly, she mixed the drink and wrote Cid's name on it. She placed it on the counter and motioned him over. He stood up and she got a look at him as a whole. He was almost six foot with brownish red complexion. His clean shaven face made him look younger than he was, no doubt. His long sideburns framed his face well as he ran his hand through his hair, pushing his bangs back. His strong arms fit snugly into his shirt that did a great job of framing his shoulders as well. Unfazed by this, Mai simply handed him his drink and told him to have a good day. Cid paused, caught off guard at the abruptness of it all, "Yeah…you too miss…uh do you have a name barista lady?" Mai did a half turn before disappearing into the back room, "Barista lady? That'll do!" and she vanished from his sight. Cid returned to the table where his friend was waiting with a smile, "Smooth man. Barista lady!" Cid waved it off, "Whatever man, she's just a girl at a coffee shop." He stared off after her a moment longer, "A cute girl, though…"

Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 4

Written by Proto 

Chapter 4: Date Night Fun

What a night it had been, Mai thought to herself. She had just had an amazing first date with, literally, the girl of her dreams. She ran into her room, talking to nobody but excited nonetheless. "She's soooo awesome! She's cute! And fun and sexy and nice and sweet and cute and the best and…and…" her eyes began to close as she stood tugging at her shirt to come off, "and the best…an…d cu…te…" her eyes shut as her body fell forward toward the bed. She was asleep before her head even hit the pillow.
All too soon, her alarm was loudly singing her awake. "Oh Chinese ninja  warrior. With your heart so coooo-" with an audible sigh, Mai's hand landed heavily on her alarm clock, silencing it and knocking it to the floor in one fell swoop. She rolled over in bed, light streaming in from the window. She had left the string lights that hung from the walls on all night and their illumination was moot. She rolled over to get off the bed but her other arm was still tangled in her shirt from the night before and she failed to catch herself she fell off the bed with a shriek. With a thud she landed on her alarm clock, bruising her forearm she rolled around, muttering about the clock's vicious revenge. She managed to get herself to her feet. In a tiff she threw her shirt to the ground and slid her pants off as she wandered toward the shower. Kicking her panties to the side she climbed into the shower only to jump back against the wall as was pelted by freezing cold water. Tenderly she stuck her toes forward to feel if the water was warming up. No such luck. After a few minutes she forced herself forward and with painfully shallow breaths managed to get cleaned and she wrapped herself in a towel as she waddled back to the bedroom in search of warm clothes. She stepped into a pair of plain panties and her work jeans before reaching for a bra. Reaching behind her, she felt the old hooks clasp together and she adjusted herself to comfort. All she needed was a shirt and the world would be a perfect place once again. She slid open the drawer only to find it devoid of work shirts. She exhaled loudly as she remembered she hadn't done laundry in a week and her shirts were dirty. Feeling increasingly frustrated, she grabbed another shirt and put it on, hoping her boss wouldn't mind. She stomped to the kitchen for a bowl of cereal. The bombardment of ice she had called a shower was half the time of her usual warm soaks so for once she had time for a real breakfast. Cereal sounded great, Mai decided. She strode toward the cupboard and got everything out. It had been a while since she had cereal and looked forward to enjoying it. She poured it into the bowl then opened the milk. She tilted it and much to her chagrin it fell in clumps into her bowl. She slammed the carton on the table and stared straight ahead, her jaw straining visibly. She dumped the food down the drain along with the milk which she almost needed to scoop out.
"Stupid shower making me so cold I had to stupid eat stupid cereal. Then it had stupid milk that was MADE of stupid clumps" As she talked angrily to herself she put another bagel in the toaster, "I swear if this stupid toaster ruins my stupid bagel I'm going to throw it out the stupid window forever." As she waited for her bagel to pop up, she grabbed her shoes and got ready to leave. With a loud clang her bagel rocketed out of the toaster and landed in her bowl with milk chunk residue. Mai's fists clenched as she tried to comprehend the events of the morning. "That...no way…it just…That's not PHYSICALLY possible."  As angry as she wanted to be, part of her was 1) impressed with the toasters shot put skills and 2) amused because the amount of things gone wrong this morning bordered on the cartoonish. Despite those, anger still prevailed as she flung the door open and threw herself into the hallway, slamming the door behind her she turned toward the elevator. Her last memory of April the night before had been her walking backward toward the elevator. For the first time all morning, a small smile came across Mai's face as she closed her eyes, remembering the night before. Mai entered the elevator and it began its rocky descent down. One of these days, she thought to herself, this stupid thing is gonna break down. She slid her phone out of her back pocket and typed a text to April, "I had a lot of fun last night. Can't wait to hear from you soon!" She hit the send button as the doors creaked open. Mai stepped out and walked toward work. She had been awake for an hour and already the day was off to a terrible start.
Mai dragged herself the few blocks to work, her feet trudging along the cement the whole way there. She reached the shop's backdoor and pushed it open. Her boss, Daryl, was waiting behind the cash register, with one glance at her outfit his face changed to a disapproving one. However, once his gaze reached her face he immediately softened sensing her rough morning. He was an older man, about fifty and was the owner of the family run shop. His grey hair showed just enough evidence that it used to be red years ago. The stress of running a busy coffee had aged him prematurely as he had clear wrinkles around his eyes and mouth. He was a kind man who often saw Mai as a daughter and always looked out for her. Knowing she had a rough morning already, he decided not to exacerbate it and kept his mouth shut.  Mai dropped her purse in the back cupboard and got up front, ready for the opening swarm. A line had already formed outside and she could feel them staring in. Like meth heads to a pusher, they needed their morning caffeine. Finally opening time struck and Daryl opened the doors. The mob of people flew in, regulars and newbies alike as Mai and Daryl took orders and mixed coffees like pros. The distraction of work helped Mai push the frustrations of the morning out of her mind but they were quickly replaced by new ones. Finicky customers, and complicated orders filled the air for the first two hours as people rushed in and out. Finally, the shop slowed down and Mai rested against the counter taking a deep breath and long sigh. Daryl walked past her to clean the utensils they had used and rubbed her shoulder warmly and gave her a soft smile. Her day continued and she eventually reached her lunch break. She stumbled to the cupboard and opened it to retrieve her purse. Attached to it was a note,
Hwoarang's Noodle House. 8PM tonight. See you there.
-A
At the bottom of the note was a dark red lipstick kiss. Mai's stomach immediately filled with butterflies at the thought of seeing April again. She closed her eyes and saw the raven haired beauty and her starlit eyes as she imagined April smiling at her. Mai held the paper close to her chest, smiling and bouncing around giddily. Just like that, all her frustrations and anger from the morning had melted away. It was quickly replaced with warm feelings and anticipation for the night to come. Thankfully, the rest of her day shot by. Mai excitedly dashed home to change for her big date. She showered once again, warm this time, to try and get the smell of coffee out of her entire being. Scrubbing as much as she could she leapt out and into a soft blue short dress. It clung to her dainty frame well, showing off her legs and small hips. She styled her hair in a cute up do with her bangs hanging down extra wavy over her eyes. Giving herself a quick once over in the mirror she nodded and vanished out the door. At a quarter to eight she pulled up in her car at the noodle house and put it in park. She took a deep breath and readied herself. It had only been a day since she last saw April, but it felt like forever and she was ecstatic to once again be with her. Wasn't that crazy, she thought to herself. Shaking it off she opened the car door and walked into the restaurant.  She walked into the entryway and peered around looking for a familiar face. In the far corner of the restaurant she saw a young woman with short black hair waving widely and smiling at her. Mai's heart skipped a beat as she made eye contact with April. She made her way across the room, each step speeding up her heartbeat so fast it felt like it would pound out of her chest. April stood up, her black blouse hung from her shoulders, showing off her small frame well. The neckline was low and small amount of cleavage could be mustered from April's endowments. Her skirt was loose and flowed freely as she stepped forward to hug Mai. They embraced and Mai felt like she had perfection. There was nothing she wanted more, or so she thought. Until she felt April's warm lips press against her own. Her eyes closed as they kissed one another deeply. April motioned for Mai to sit down and she accepted. The two ladies sat across the small table from one another, making general small talk.
"How was your day, sweetie?" April inquired as she reached for the glass of wine before her. Mai leaned back in her chair and rubbed her temple with a drawn out sigh. "Oh it was pretty much awful" she said with a laugh. April swallowed her wine quickly, worry across her face, "I'm so sorry! I hope I didn't inconvenience you by having you come out here. I know it's a ways from your apartment. I just wanted to see you again…" she said. Mai smiled, leaning forward once again, she rested her hand on April's rubbing it tenderly. "I love that you asked me out. It actually saved my day. The thought of seeing you got me through it all". April's eyes lit up as they smiled at each other once again. The waiter suddenly materialized at their table, "May I take you ladies' orders?" They both jumped back startled and laughed. "We haven't even looked at the menu. I'm sorry!" April said apologetically. The waiter rolled his eyes impatiently, "Just call me back as soon as your ready ma'am." With that he walked away abruptly.
"Well that was rude," Mai stated pursing her lips out feigning outrage. April simply smiled, "I know how to get better service. Don't you worry, doll". Mai eyed her quizzically as April closed her eyes, the smile become slightly more devious.  Mai watched on in fascination as April's blouse began to fill up, pressing outward. Cleavage began to appear before her very eyes as her breasts pushing together. Mai felt more than a twinge of arousal as she watched the show. April let out a small sigh as her bosom's growth came to a stop at a firm DD. Her top wrapped tightly around her new bust line, her cleavage going for what seemed like miles into the inviting depths of her shirt. Mai's legs rubbed together as she struggled to keep herself composed.  April glanced down at them then back at Mai, "Better, yes?" she smiled. Mai wordlessly nodded in awe. Within moments, another waiter had appeared, "Would you lovely ladies like an appetizer? I can have some edamame brought over immediately." The two women exchanged glances. April looked up at the young man, her hand resting on her chest lightly, "But we haven't ordered anything yet" she said daintily. The waiter waved his hand, "It's on the house. I'll have it brought to your table. Enjoy your evening, my name is Michael." He blushed as April thanked him by name and he vanished back into the woodworks. Mai looked on in disbelief, "That was amazing! Just like that? I always knew I was missing out by having these" she finished the sentence motioning to her small breasts. April shrugged it off, "I like you just the way you are, sweetie. Don't you worry about how you look. Besides," she smiled mischievously again, "the fun is just beginning." She shook her shoulders out and exhaled slowly. Mai watched once again as changes occurred in April's shirt. This time her breasts reverted back to their much smaller real size. The red head was completely lost as to what April's purpose was. Moments later, Michael returned with a large order of edamame. His eyes immediately lost their sparkle when he returned to see the black haired guest not nearly as busty as he remembered. He paused for a moment, food in hand, he looked around the area for the table with the buxom blouse clad beauty. April cleared her throat, "Is that the edamame you got us? It's on the house, correct?" she spoke the final words with coy intent.  Still confused but retaining some semblance of professionalism the waiter managed a nod and placed the bowl on their table. His eyes kept wandering to where he had spied a perfect pair of breasts just minutes ago. He wandered off stunned. April took a pod and popped the snack in her mouth. "Wow, these are really good. Eat some before I have the whole bowl!"
Mai stared on in shock. Slowly a smile came over her face, then it hit. Laughter. She began to laugh loudly at the incredible maneuver April had just pulled. "Not only do you have amazing expansion powers, but she used them for fun and pranks!" Mai managed to get out, "You're so awesome!" April  smiled and feigned a small bow.  The two ladies decided to order a large bowl of udon and waited for their waiter to return. After a few moments, April decided she would once again "summon" their waiter. Mai eagerly watched as April once again sensually increased her curves. She couldn't help but wonder what it felt like. She wanted so badly to feel that expansion in her own breasts. She could only imagine how good it felt. That thought combined with the actual visual of April's bosom expanding, this time even larger than before caused her to feel a dampening between her thighs. Get a grip of yourself Mai, she thought to herself.  But I can't help it! Look at her! Look at those! Her eyes travelled down to April's improved endowments. Once again, moments later a third waiter appeared, "Evening ladies! My name's Ricky and I'll be…takin care of you this evening!" he said with a smile and glint in his eyes. Mai and April exchanged a glance and giggled. Not so much because of his line, but more at it. They placed their order and the sleaziest waiter yet gave them a wink, "I'll make sure and prepare this dish extra well just for you. I'll make it myself."
"I'd really rather you left that to the people in the kitchen. I'd rather our udon isn't dripping with as much cheese as those lines you're hurling at us, kay thanks" Mai said with a smile and wink of her own. The waiter was stunned for a moment before recovering and laughing it off before vanishing into the kitchen. In the kitchen, he ran into fellow waiter, Michael. "Bro, table 73. Two chicks, one has these huuuge tits. You gotta see 'em." Ricky raved with his hands out a foot from his chest to mimic the dark haired guest. Michael thought for a moment, "73? Yeah I don't think so. I was just there, and I think my little brother has bigger boobs." He leaned around the wall to glance over when he clearly saw April's heaving bosom resting on the table as she leaned forward, listening to Mai talk endlessly about her work day and the strange clients that came in. "No way!" He exclaimed, "They're back!" Ricky faced his friend confusedly, "What do you mean 'they're back'?" Michael proceeded to tell him about earlier events and Ricky just shrugged it off. Minutes later, their order was up and both men decided to deliver the meal to the table. However, upon arriving they discovered no cup bigger than a B. Both men simply stared in confusion at April's chest. "Can I help you, gentlemen?" April asked, indignation in her voice. Both shook their heads wordlessly and left their table alone. Once they were out of earshot, both women began to crack up once again.
"This is a fun game!" Mai said between laughs, her hand resting on her chest to calm her breathing. April nodded along, "Oh it's one of my favorites." Mai slowly regained her composure, speaking between smaller laughs, "Well then what is your favorite game?" April swallowed her bite of their dinner, "Well you'll just have to wait and see won't you?" she finished with a smirk and an eye brow flick. The two finished dinner soon enough and the bill came. They laughed once again when they saw the edamame was indeed free of charge. They split the bill fifty fifty and gathered their belongings and made their way to the door. April walked Mai to her car and they lingered for a few minutes.
"Thank you so much for tonight, babe. I really needed it. Today was just…ugh" Mai sighed. April leaned forward, kissing Mai on the cheek, "It's my pleasure. Really" she whispered into her ear.  Mai looked up once more into April's sparkling eyes, "Any chance we'll get to play your favorite game anytime in the near future?" The black haired beauty leaned in and planted a passionate kiss on Mai's lips. Their arms instinctively wrapped around one another, pulling each other in tighter. Mai felt a touch of wetness once again as April's tongue slid into her mouth, wrestling with her own sensually. Mai began to feel tingling deep inside her chest. Warm pressure building up within her breasts. She could've sworn they felt like they were filling up. She kissed April harder excitement building. But just as soon as it started, the tingling pressure ended. April parted from the kiss but hovered over Mai's lips. "Maybe someday we'll play."

Power Play: Growing Relationship Chapter 3

Written by Proto

Chapter 3: Understandings

Mai's lips parted from April and they paused for a beat, smiling at each other. April leaned forward and rested on Mai's chest. Mai ran her fingers through April's raven hair and exhaled strongly. "Well, this has all been quite amazing, but I'm gonna go try to wake up now. I really hope everything works out HALF this well in real life" she laughed as April sat back and confusedly looked up at her, cleavage still spilling from her once baggy shirt. "What do you mean…wake up?" she asked her red headed date. Mai collapsed in her chair once again, her hands rubbing her face. "Well clearly this is a dream. I mean, c'mon, this," she motioned to April's bosom, "can't be really happening." April laughed quietly and sat back in her chair, "And, why not, exactly?" she asked quizzically. Mai laughed "because it's impossible! People can't just…expand! Grow! Whatever you want to call it." Mai stared longingly at April, a small twinge of sadness in her eyes, "Though it would be amazing. See, I've been having these dreams…" she suddenly caught herself mid sentence and threw her hands up in the air as if to physically bat away the words she had just spoken. "That's neither here nor there. Like I said, it's wake up time." She stood up and began to jump a little in place "Waaaaaake UP! Wake up…wake uuuuuuup! Aaaannnny second now…" She closed her eyes and opened them again, shaking her head. April giggled and leaned further back in her chair, her arm rested behind her on the back of the old creaky chair as Mai tried desperately to wake herself up. Mai closed her eyes once again, this time as hard as she could. "And this is it for real! Time to end this- " she was cut off as she opened her eyes to see April standing as close as she could right before her. She could feel April's warm breath on her lips "…perfection" Mai breathed the end of the sentence. The two women inched toward each other one, lips pursing as they prepared to meet. Mai's eyes fluttered shut. Just before they kissed, she felt a sharp pinch on her butt and she nigh leapt out of her skin as she yelped in pain. She reached back and rubbed herself tenderly. "That hurt! Why would yo-" she paused mid sentence as April watched on, smiling, as realization slowly came over Mai. "That…hurt. Hurt...Really hurt. Real…ly. Real. Real…ity? Real?" Mai's eyes glazed over as she attempted to come to grips with everything that just unfurled in her own apartment. 
Mai's hands slowly rose to her head as she rubbed her temples, wandering into her living room she sat down on the couch. April slowly entered the room, now feeling unsure of her decision to reveal her abilities to Mai so quickly. She crept toward the couch and sat on the other end, torn between reaching out to the young woman, and letting her deal in silence. Mai's hands slid over her face as she leaned forward, elbows resting on her jeans. April began to slowly reach out when she saw her red hair bouncing slightly as Mai's shoulders shook, her face still obscured by her soft porcelain hands. April retracted her hand quickly and felt her heart hit the floor two stories beneath them. What a fool, she called herself, how could this have been a good idea. Only one thing left to do, she continued her thought. She looked at Mai one more time, her vision clouding with tears. Slowly she raised her hand, bringing her fingers together preparing to snap them. Just go back far enough to salvage this mistake….She put pressure between her fingers, felt reality start to bend in preparation, when she suddenly heard it. Giggles. Her gaze slowly shifted to Mai. Her hands had fallen to her knees and April could clearly see a smile on Mai's face. She hadn't been crying at all! Mai lay back against the pillows on the couch and laughed aloud harder. April's sky blue eyes shimmered in confusion, inch by inch she lowered her hand, releasing pressure between her middle finger and thumb, her hand found rest on the couch cushion between her own and Mai's. Still laughing, the red head reached over and rested her hand on April's. She looked over and their eyes finally met. Mai's shone brightly with what looked like happiness and excitement while April's still gave evidence of sadness and confusion. "I…I thought you were crying" April managed, finally. Mai's face switched to shock and apology as she stammered back, "Crying? Me? No never! Well, sometimes but only when I'm watching a sad movie or see hamsters in a small cage but that's-whatever! No I wasn't crying! I'm so sorry you thought that! Never! I just…wow." She ended the sentence with a large sigh and a pleading look at April to have understood that jumble. April rubbed her eyes, her vision no longer blurred she turned her hand over and held Mai's tightly. "I'm sorry I got kinda weird for a second there. It's just; this is so…so…" Mai started as April cringed slightly waiting and worrying what the next word would be, "AWESOME!" Mai squealed. "It's incredible! Can you just do your…ya know…boobs," she motioned timidly to April's bust and the shirt that struggled to contain them. "Or can you do all of you? I can't believe you thought I was crying! Maybe tears of joy! This is so great." April's lips parted into a smile so big it almost hurt. Acceptance. 
Mai leapt across the couch and wrapped her arms around her. "You know, I hope this isn't too personal," she started. April gave her an incredulous look and motioned to her bosom nearly soaring into plain view. "Touché." Mai giggled, "I've had this fascination with…I dunno, what do you call it, growing?" April nodded, "Growth, expansion, whatever. Surprise me" she said with a laugh and dismissive hand wave. Mai released April from the hug and sat as close to her as possible, "So, how long have you been able to do this?" she quizzed excitedly bouncing in her seat. April shrugged, "Pretty much forever. It's...a uh…family trait," she finished somewhat cryptically. Mai, being far too caught up in the moment to even notice just nodded her head and kept going asking questions a mile a minute. "So do you need sugar for it? Can you just change on command?" She gasped as a terrifying thought crossed her mind "Does this mean you can't eat candy?" April laughed heartily at the last question, "No I don't NEED sugar. It just speeds the process up is all. Yes I can definitely do this on command. And don't worry, honey, I can eat all the sweets I want and not destroy the candy shop with my tits" she punctuated the last words with a wink. The thought left Mai slack jawed. "Watch out though, you're so sweet I may just eat you up!" April said leaping forward kissing Mai hard and pushing her back and pinning her to the couch. Mai felt April's legs intertwining with her own as their kisses built up more passion. April's hands ran through her lover's fiery hair as Mai felt the raven haired beauty's enhanced bosom pressing against her. Mai couldn't help herself as one hand traveled down, resting atop the soft top of April's right breast. They broke their kiss for a moment and Mai timidly asked the question she had been waiting for, "Does it…feel…good?" April smiled and kissed Mai once again, tongue exploring her mouth before pulling away once more. "It feels amazing" she whispered sensually. Mai could feel herself get a chill from head to toe. Arousal tingled throughout her body as she fought back the urge to jump April's bones on the spot. They kissed once more, lighter now, before April's continence became much more serious. She lifted her torso up to get a better view of Mai, their legs still tangled together, April spoke "Now you know this is real and not just another crazy dream of yours." Mai nodded as she continued, "Do you still stand by the promise you made me earlier? You wouldn't change me for the universe, right?" Without missing a beat, Mai repeated the kiss from earlier and reiterated her promise. "I meant every word, sweetie. I may have thought it was a dream, but dammit did I hope I was wrong. Because tonight, with you, even before we came here, was perfection. I made that promise to you. Not to my dream." April smiled so wide her cheeks ached once again. Her lips smashed into Mai's as they kissed. Passion overwhelming logic, they rolled off the couch. Both ladies shrieked in mid air and hit the ground with an audible thud. , "Are you okay?" Mai laughed, "I'm just fine, had a padded landing," she giggled motioning to April's distressed shirt. April looked down to see her red headed lover resting on her chest. 
Mai felt so content and happy to simply lay there. She felt April's arms wrap around her and rub her back lightly. April leaned her head forward to kiss the top of her head. As she did so, she caught a glimpse at the clock. It was already in the twelve o'clock hour. April sighed, "It's really late. I should probably get going, hun. Don't you have work in the morning?" Mai exhaled, her warm breath tingling April's skin. "Yeah I do. This is just really comfy". April smiled and rubbed Mai's back again this time slightly harder. They stood up and Mai walked with her to the door. April grabbed her things along the way and turned to face Mai at the threshold. April smiled, "Call me soon? I don't want to have wait three days to hear from you." Mai leaned forward and planted a kiss on her tender lips, "You'll be lucky if you get 3 hours without hearing from me". They kissed once more and April walked backwards away from the apartment never breaking eye contact with Mai. The elevator doors opened with a ding a creak and she continued to walk backward into it, leaning forward to keep seeing Mai who was leaning as far forward out of her door as she could to maintain sight. The doors almost closed on April's neck as she dodged it and they ladies laughed once more together before April was taken out of sight. Mai closed the door and leaned against it sliding down to a sitting position on the ground. She knew there was something budding deep inside her. Since the moment she first laid eyes on her, she was fascinated with April. Even more so now that was quite literally her dream girl. Things may have already taken a turn for the unexpected but if that's how they were going to be, she couldn't wait to see where they'd go from here.
