Lauren couldn't just lie back and go back to sleep. Her belly was grumbling and growling like never before, demanding to be fed, and it wouldn't take no for an answer. Lauren was currently dieting, trying to lose a tiny bit of plumpness stuck to her tummy, and as such was eating healthily, and absolutely not snacking between meals. However, there was absolutely no arguing with this insatiable hunger. It was clear that the only option she held was to absolutely stuff herself as much as possible, as quickly as possible, so her stomach would release her from it's grip, and allow the hostage to return to her warm, comfortable bed. As Lauren uneasily rose to her feet however, she did regain a little common sense and caution. Checking to see if her siblings were still asleep, she shakily made her way to the phone.
"I can't just devour everything in the fridge, imagine what Meg and Justin would say!" , thought Lauren; "besides, I need more to eat than that!

She sat there, moaning as her own belly cried out in anguish and unrelentingly attacked her with stinging hunger pains. Lauren's white tank top stuck closely to her skin, as a cold sweat continued to drip down her. he rubbed her hands all over her soft tummy in a futile attempt to stave off the pain, staring at the clock impatiently.
"Ooh, b-be patient!" shouted Lauren in retaliation to her stomach's endless rumbling. "When will the food be here? I'm starving to death! Why am I so hungry? I've never felt this way before! It's not fair..." Her questions and complaints trailed off into a quiet whimper as she suffered at the hands of her sister's cruel torture.
After what felt like an eternity, the doorbell rang. Lauren got up from her knees and ran like a mindless beast towards the unbelievably delicious scent of fresh pizza, a little drool running down her chin.
As she frantically clawed open the door she saw:
