This choice: Alex, but as he eats, he is growing! • Go Back...Chapter #4Alex, but as he eats, he is growing! by: scriptboy   You finally get behind your little brother in line at the snack bar. When it's almost his turn, he turns around to face you. You know exactly what he's gonna ask for, because he has no money.
"A Snickers bar is seventy-five cents! Do you have three quarters?" he asks me.
"Sure..." you sigh, as you dig into your small plastic pouch which is strapped around your waist. You pull out the pouch but you give him a Dollar and two quarters instead. "Please buy me one as well."
You give him a buck fifty and then you step out of the line and you wait for him.
A minute later your little brother comes walking up to you, holding two chocolate bars in his hands.
"Justin! Here's your Snickers bar!" he says as he hands you your snack. "Thanks! I was so hungry!"
"Now, Remember Alex..." You say to him as you both tear the wrapper from your chocolate bars before you begin to eat. "You gotta wait twenty minutes before you get into the water. Otherwise you'll get stomach cramps and you'll throw up!"
"Don't worry..." Alex says between bites, "I'll build a... A sand castle... or something..."
As I looked at him while he was eating his Snickers bar, I began to notice something about him while we were walking back to the spot where we had our lounge chairs in the sand. With every bite he took, it seemed like Alex was growing bigger and taller!
Alex had taken one bit out of his chocolate bar, and he seemed to be three inches taller already! His shoulders seemed broader, his abdominal muscles were more defined, and his biceps bulged a little more.
When he took his second bite, his calves somehow grew larger, his legs appeared longer, and his pectorals bulged a bit more.
After his third bite, he grew another three inches, his shoulders widened even more, and his quads grew thicker.
Finally, after he had finished his snack, Alex had gained over a foot in height, over twenty pounds in muscle, his torso had widened, his shoulders were bigger and his legs, his arms and his chest were far more muscular than they were just a few minutes before.
"Justin? Can we stay here till tonight?" he asked me as he stood right in front of me.
My jaw dropped wide open as it dawned on me that I was actually looking UP to my little brother, who, at little over six feet tall, wasn't that little anymore. In fact, he was TALLER than me!
"S-sure, Alex... But, don't get sunburned, okay?"
"Oh! Mom gave me a bottle of lotion! Can you rub it on me?" he said, as he handed me a bottle of suntan lotion out of the big beach bag.
"Yeah... I see that I got a lot of skin to cover..." I sighed, as I examined him from head to toe...
