Chapter #3

Shrunken Scientist

    by: Small1 Author IconMail Icon
Eric watched from far below on the tiles of the laboratory floor as his boyfriend unexpectedly arrived.
Tom was an extremely handsome man, 25 years old, with black hair and a gleaming smile. They didn't have a great deal in common, but that somehow translated into an attraction.
Tom stood six feet tall ' or currently the equivalent of more than 800 feet tall to his shrunken lover ' and had a muscular frame that he kept toned through frequent visits to a gym.
At the moment, Tom looked unbelievably huge. He stepped into the lab, walking directly toward miniscule Eric, who although he knew that he needed help to regain his size, cowered in Tom's titanic presence.
His mind went blank from fear as his gigantic boyfriend's sneakers slapped down on the floor.
"Eric?" Tom shouted. "Still here? I got away after all! Where's this special experiment? Eric?"
Eric scurried across the floor, dismayed at how long he now needed to travel even a few inches.
He approached Tom's huge sneakers. They looked more than 130 feet long and 40 feet wide.
And they were coming closer.
"Tom! Help me!" Eric shouted. "Please, help me!"
Tom stopped in the center of the lab, remaining still for a moment as he looked around the room. Eric ran closer.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks as another giant entered the lab.
"Tom, how long are you going to be?"
Eric recognized Tom's eighteen-year-old kid brother, Sam. Sam was a rude, obnoxious straight kid, but he got along well with his older brother.
He didn't, however, care much for Tom's boyfriend. He considered Eric too uptight.
"I guess Eric's not here," Tom said. "I'll leave him a note."
Sam, his huge sneakers even bigger than his older brother's, tromped across the floor.
Eric was trapped between the two giants.
Tom finished his note and left it on Eric's desk.
"Let's go," Tom said.
Eric watched as the two giants headed directly toward him.
He tried one final time to summon Tom's help. "Tom! Look down here! On the floor..." Eric screamed.
Suddenly, a shadow fell over him. He looked up at an enormous shoe with a pattern of deep grooves. He wasn't even sure who the shoe belonged to as the shoe slammed down.

You have the following choices:

1. Eric is wedged in Tom's shoe

2. Eric is wedged in Sam's shoe

*Noteb*
3. Trapped

*Noteb* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
