It is tough to be small. Matthew knew this all to well. At 11 years old, he was small for his age and weighed a little over average at 100 pounds. He was a target for bullying from his peers calling him shrimp, shorty, small-fry, weakling, you name it, the boy heard every insult you could think of for being short. Middle School was hell. Home was not much better due to his mean older brother Justin. Justin was 18 years old and because their parents worked long shifts, they were not home often, which enabled Justin to constantly tease poor Matthew. He would push and shove the poor boy around and keep things on high shelves just to tease him. Matthew had very few things to enjoy, except for one thing, his love of giant boys. He had recently discovered the world of macro's and he was hooked. He bought himself a game where you play as a giant boy, making your own character, there was even a picture feature to make the character look like yourself! He played the game all the time, you could fight other giant boys and chat with them. He even made a few online friends, some being his brothers age. He was constantly told he would be a great giant boy which made him want to be giant even more. He joined a male giant website and quickly made more friends and gained a small following of 10,000 followers by making pretend giant videos. One of his favorites was "Attack of Mega Matthew" where he got some cardboard boxes and toy cars and pretended to be a giant. In the video, he pretended to outgrow his clothes by taking them off and stretching them to the point they ripped. He always left a pair of briefs on because he liked the way they felt when he stomped around. His fans loved the video, praising him for his content.
"Man, I would do anything to grow giant. I would have so much fun." Matthew said to himself.
Little did Matthew know, his wish was about to come true. Today his class was going on a class trip to a scientific lab where all sorts of stuff for science was being made. Matthew was eager to go as it meant no school, but he than realized how boring the tour would be and he sighed. Matthew and his class got on the bus and head to the lab. A tour guide greeted them and walked them around the lab. Most of the stuff around the lab did not interest the boy at all. Stuff ranging from atoms and electricity, not interesting at all to hm. It was not until they got to a lab with huge plants and a fridge of chemicals. "And this is our plant growing station, If you are wondering how the food got this big, we use this growth potion we have been working on. As you can see, it has great results on plants." Matthew was amazed! Another student asked what would happen if a human drank it. The tour guide chuckled and said that would never happen. Matthew thought for a moment: *Maybe I could take one. They won't notice." Matthew thought to himself. The tourist brought them to the cafeteria to have lunch. When everyone was distracted, Matthew made his move. He snuck away from the class and went into the plant growth part of the lab. Luckily nobody was in there. He walked up to the fridge with his backpack to sneak a potion or two. He picked the lock on the fridge and opened it. He saw around 10 bottles in the fridge and saw more were being made. Matthew smirked: "Well if they are still making them, I am sure they won't miss these." Matthew said as he grabbed each potion and piled them into his backpack. He zipped up his backpack and quickly rejoined the group, nobody noticed he was gone. Later that day, Matthew arrived home, he looked around the house and saw nobody was home. He saw a note on the fridge, it was from his brother.
"Dear Micro Matthew, I went out with my friends tonight, Do not tell mom and dad or you are dead shrimp!" From, Justin
"Well screw him, I am going to show him who is micro." Matthew said to himself confidently. Suddenly Matthew had a thought, should he drink the potions live on his account on the growth site to show his fans, or should he drink them in private on the rare chance they do not work and he does not disappoint his fans. He also considered inviting over his friend named Miles
Here is Miles bio.
Miles is 9 years old and the youngest of three brothers. His older brothers Sean is 18 years old and Ian is 14 years old. His brothers love to pick on him. He has auburn hair and brown eyes, and he is on the skinny and shrimpy side. He loves giants too just like Matthew.
