This choice: After getting home, Lucy finds herself craving more candy... • Go Back... "Home sweet home!" Lucy let out a blissful sigh as she crossed the threshold into her small apartment. Being a few months out of college and low on funds, all she could afford was a simple one bedroom place. It did have a separate living room and kitchen, which was nice but also drove the price up a bit. Thankfully she had managed to get that job at the factory, otherwise she'd probably be moving out right about now. "Time to kick back and relax! Lord knows I need it after all that paperwork!"
Pulling her shoes off, Lucy collapsed into her sofa and, forgetting her earlier button conundrum, inhaled a bit too deeply. This time, two buttons came free, revealing tantalising cleavage. It didn't bother her all that much, it was her home after all, but what did bother her was why it was happening. Her shirt had fit perfectly yesterday, yet now it was having issues with her chest?
"It's certainly weird..." Lucy mused, staring down at her chest for a few moments before shrugging. "Whatever, must have just shrunk or something. Either that, or I've grown again!"
Chuckling at her joke, Lucy grabbed the TV remote. Turning it on, the news greeted her, its host standing outside one of the many Expansive Candy stores around town.
...People just can't get enough of this delicious candy, The reporter said, gesturing to the store behind her. Just today, Expansive Candy reported that almost a quarter of all their stores sold out of almost everything. The owner of the company, Elena Exco, had this to say...
Elena appeared on screen, her curvaceous figure clad in a tight purple tank-top and pink and white striped shirt, but Lucy wasn't too concerned with the appearance of her boss. Rather, her concern was held elsewhere. Namely, the growling of her stomach.
"I have only eaten candy all day..." Lucy mumbled, cheeks turning an anxious red. "Maybe I should have something a little more substantial... Though more candy does sound absolutely fantastic..."
Giving it a bit more thought, Lucy eventually stood, turned the TV off, and retrieved her shoes. Redoing her buttons, which turned out to a bit more of a challenge than earlier, she left her apartment, humming a pleasant tune to herself as she went.

"Another store sold out?!"
Lucy frowned at the employee in front of her. This was the second store she had visited, only to be told they didn't have much left in stock. And what they did had didn't much appeal to her.
"I'm just as surprised as you are!" The employee said. "This place was absolutely packed earlier! Like, I've never seen so many people in one place at one time! Sorry we couldn't help you... Maybe try the store just up from here? It's all I can really recommend to you".
"Yeah..."
Leaving the store, Lucy couldn't help but groan. She had started out so enthusiastically, ready for more candy, but the first store she had come to was empty. Like, empty empty. All that was left were a couple of chocolate bars, which she wasn't really craving. Then she had come here, only to be told the same. If this final store didn't have anything, then she'd probably call it for the day. She could probably wait until tomorrow. Probably...
"Hello, welcome!" Lucy was greeted by a smiling woman, her blue pantsuit pristine and tight over her curvy body. "Can I help you find anything, or are you just here to browse?"
"I guess I'm here to browse, but..." Lucy leaned in close. "You do have stuff to sell, don't you? Last two stores were almost completely empty!"
"Well, our stocks are less than they were this morning, but we do still have a considerable collection to choose from!" The woman said. "If you're looking for something specific and it's not on display, we may have some in the back".
"I'll keep that in mind, thanks," Lucy smiled as the woman turned on her heel and walked off, an enticing sway to her thick hips. "Finally, candy! But what do I want? What seems good?"
Exploring the shop, the question became a lot harder to answer with each aisle she looked down. There was far more candy here than she ever could have imagined, and picking was just so difficult! After wandering the aisles for a while, Lucy decided to take a moment and actually decide on what she wanted. While wandering, she had spotted a few intriguing things.
The first was some sort of gummy pancake stack called 'The Short Stack'. Being a fan of food-related gummies, a bag of them didn't sound too bad. The second looked to be some sort of fizzy bonbon, vibrant yellow in colour and called 'Blonde Bombs'. And the final candy of interest, found down a rather... sexual aisle, were 'Buxom Bites' and, upon closer inspection, appeared to be a pair of gelatinous breasts.
After a moments hard thought, Lucy decided upon...  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
