In-Between Chapters 12 and 13 by Sofia Hammerstein

Cameron Sylvester has grown up always hoping he'll live up to the heritage of his mother's family height. She was a ten-foot-tall Big, after all, and his father was a tall Mid, which meant it shouldn't have been a question that he would grow out of the Little category of height early on. A bright student, he's been at the top of his class in science and math throughout his academic career! Looking toward his high school graduation and towards college, he's received scholarships to attend Emerson University. it's a question of inches if he'll be left to the fate of being a Little with a limited future or manage to make a future as a short 'Betweener.' Even as a Betweener, the question remains to be seen if he can be a normal adult or if he'll be left 'In-Between.'  (A Tale from the Diaper Dimension)

Chapter 12: Weekend Get Away
 

DURING THE FIRST week back, I could tell that Addy was getting more stressed about her classes and her family. She refused to talk about the details, but suffice it to say, I guessed that her mom was probably pissed off at her still dating me. I worried about her and decided I wanted to do something nice for her. I carefully planned out a date night with dinner, followed by a show in a nearby city. I made reservations for a hotel room with a built-in jacuzzi for the bathroom and did everything I could to ensure we had a great time. I had convinced her to keep her Friday afternoon until Saturday evening open for a surprise.

Friday, we headed to one last class that we both shared, intro to computer programming, and she kept trying to badger me for information. “So, what is my mysterious boyfriend planning this weekend?” she smiled.

“Well, it’s still a surprise, but you’ll need to drive if you don’t mind? I would drive, but we’d need a shoehorn to get you into my car!”

She laughed, “I figured. What do I need to wear?”

“Bring a nice dress for tonight, maybe a bathing suit, pajamas, and something casual for tomorrow?”

She gave me a questioning look, “So this is an overnight trip you’re kidnapping me on?”

I smirked, “Assuming that you’re game for it?”

She smiled, “I have to now! I’ve got to see what romantic weekend my boyfriend came up with here!”

After class, she asked, “How are you with this programming assignment? Does it make sense?”

I shrugged, “I think so… but if it doesn’t, I know who I’m calling for help!”

“Who?”

“My friend Stacy?”

“She’s good with computers?”

“She’s like a genius, from what I understand. She skipped out of all of the lower-level programming classes.”

“Hmm…” she looked thoughtful. “I can be packed in about twenty minutes to leave?”

“Sounds good; I’m already packed. Why don’t I just come to your dorm after grabbing my things?”

“That works,” she said, “I’ll have time to change wherever we’re going?”

I nodded, “Especially with the way you drive!”

She stuck her tongue out at me, “I’ll see you soon, Cam.”

As I went upstairs to my dorm room, I couldn’t help but think that she was beginning to call me that more and more. Most people calling me that would bother me, but I called her Addy… so I guess it was okay to have a shortened name for me too.

I was already packed and able to grab my rolling garment bag with my suit inside of it, pajamas, next day of clothes, toiletries, and my bag with my computer just in case I needed it. I took one last look around to ensure I had my wallet and credit cards, just in case they couldn’t take the payment off my phone. I double-checked that I locked the door, then headed off to Addy’s dorm.

One of her friends saw me downstairs and said, “Ooh… Addy told me you were going on a mystery trip… I wish my boyfriend did romantic things like that!”

I smiled, “Thanks,” I told her and kept going upstairs. I’d hung around her dorm quite a bit towards the end of the semester, so I was considered normal. I reached her open door just as she zipped up her suitcase.

“There you are!” She said with a smile. “I take it you’re ready?”

“Yep, you?”

“Just want to hit the potty one last time.”

I nodded, “Actually, that’s a good idea; I’ll run down the hall and be back.”

I went down the hall to one of the boy’s suites and used their bathroom quickly. The toilets in this dorm were all Big sized, so it was a bit of a pain to use them, but I managed okay by standing. When I had to go more than pee, though, it was a bit of a struggle to get on top - even as a Mid!

Having taken care of the necessities, we walked to her car and loaded our bags in the tiny trunk in front of her car under the hood. “That’s so weird,” I commented.

She laughed, “Normal for this type of car, though. So where am I driving?”

“Oak City,” I told her. “I’ll program your GPS for the destination – it’s the hotel we will stay in.”

“Alright,” she said with a smile. “I haven’t been there in a while.”

I sat in the seat and watched her get on the highway and gun it. She didn’t care about the speed limit; a ninety-minute drive was over in just under an hour! She pulled into the fancy hotel where I’d booked us a room and asked, “Can you afford this, sweetie? I don’t want you to feel like you have to impress me?”

I looked at her, “I’ve been saving up for something like this weekend. I can tell that you’ve been really stressed. I can afford it, and even though I know you could do so too, I’d like to do this for you as a thank you for all you’ve done for me.”

She kissed me on the lips, and we stepped out of the car. Addy took care of our luggage and valeted her car while I walked into the reception area. There was a Betweener just a bit taller than me working the counter.

“May I help you sir?”

“Reservation for Cameron Sylvester?”

He looked at me suspiciously but proceeded to check me into the system. His manager came over then, “Sir, I’m going to need to see your identification to secure a hotel room for the evening.”

I shrugged and handed him the license out of my wallet. He stared at it for several moments. I saw Addy coming over from the corner of my eye. “Sir, we’ll need a guardian to secure this room for you.”

“Excuse me? Your policies state that anyone eighteen and older can rent a room with a valid credit card and ID. I’ve presented both of those to you.”

“Sir, if you were taller, that would be the case…”

“Wait a second, I’m not a Little. Look at my license; you’ll clearly see my height is above seventy-two inches. Even if I was shorter than that, it’s not legal to discriminate based on size in any form of contract. If you want to go there, please let me know; I’ll call your corporate headquarters and file a suit with the courts.

“And I’ll be happy to have my family lawyers help out,” Addy said suddenly beside me.

“Ms. Harris?!?” he seemed surprised, “You know this… umm… gentleman?”

“Yes, he’s my boyfriend.” She told him.

“But… you… he…”

“Back to the matter at hand, I said to him, are you going to choose to discriminate here or not?”

“Ms. Harris, I’d be willing to rent the room to you…”

“Either you rent it to Mister Sylvester, or we’re walking away. I’ll make sure we don’t use your hotel anymore…”

He looked genuinely upset and torn, “Okay, finish the room for him,” he told the clerk. “Do you need a crib brought up?” he had the nerve to ask Addison.

“Cameron, I think we should go find a better hotel.”

“Sounds like you’re correct.” I looked at the manager, “You will cancel this without charging me a dime.”

“Well, we say you must cancel outside twenty-four hours…”

“I’m here and tried to rent a room; you’re canceling it now.”

We had a staring match before he took a quick glance at Addy and began working on a keyboard for a computer himself. I was soon presented with a receipt for zero dollars. “Great, I’ll make sure the word gets out about your terrible service,” I told him. I walked out with Addy, “I’m sorry…”

She laughed, “That was actually kind of fun, honestly. I know of another hotel not far from here.”

We got checked into it, and I found the hotel was as nice but slightly more painful to my wallet initially until we explained what happened. Apparently, they were part of the same ownership group, and our room ended up being comped as their manager tried to undo the damage of the other hotel. I was just grateful when we finally had a key and made it upstairs to our room.

It was a large suite with a kitchenette and living room, a separate bedroom and bathroom, and a balcony with a sunken jacuzzi. After we set our stuff down in the bedroom, she reached down and picked me up to plop me on the bed, where she laid down with me on top of her. “Sorry your plans got a little delayed here…” she told me, kissing me quickly.

I smiled, “I’m still here with you; it’s worked out. Besides, you drive so fast we still have plenty of time for our dinner reservations and will make the show just fine?”

“Show?”

I smiled at her and told her the name of the show we had tickets for, “I’ve wanted to see that! I didn’t have time to go on a trip to see it during its main run!”

I smiled, “I remember you talking about it.”

“So, how long until we need to leave for dinner?”

“About an hour?”

“Not much time then,” she said and rolled over, pinning me underneath her. She kissed me again, but this time was a long and sensual kiss. “Thank you for thinking of me and doing this,” she told me.

“Anything for you,” I told her with a smile.

She kissed me quickly again and got up from the bed, and sprinted to the bathroom to get ready. I sighed contentedly for a moment before rolling over, finding my bag, and dressing in my suit. I had just undressed to my boxers when she returned quickly, wrapped in a towel, to grab her makeup bag. I blushed but kept getting dressed and waited for her to finish. She came out dressed in a stunning sparkly blue dress, and I was glad I had on a nice three-piece suit!

“You look amazing, Addy,” I told her.

She smiled down at me, “You’re not too bad yourself!”

I smiled, “I have no doubts I pale to you. If you let me hit the restroom quickly, I’ll be ready, too.”

Our dinner reservations were at a nice restaurant I had already made a reservation for. To my relief, the restaurant seated us with no issues at all, not even a kid’s menu in sight! We had a great meal, enjoying each other’s company, before heading to the show I knew she wanted to see.

I had purchased seats on the floor level, though not the most expensive, and we both had a good view of the musical. I was a little surprised when they had a Little as an actor. He was diapered, but clearly, he could still speak, walk, dance, and sing at a level at least equal to his fellow cast members. At the show’s end, he received the biggest ovation from the audience, and it seemed like the audience respected him as more than a stupid baby. I smiled at that!

A more sobering thought was maybe the fact he was a ‘freak’ was why they liked him…

After the performance, we returned to the hotel room. After a dip in the jacuzzi, we ended up in bed together, kissing passionately in our pajamas to continue a make-out session we began in the water. I found the buttons on the front of her blouse and gradually unbuttoned all of them before she shrugged it off and revealed her bare chest. I looked lustfully at her beautiful breasts, and soon I was fondling them. My own shirt was quickly lost after that, along with my pajama bottoms, leaving her only in her panties and me only in my boxers.

We were passionately making love when my mouth kissed her nipples and lovingly gave a suckle upon one.

I was shocked when milk squirted into my mouth!

I found myself both repulsed and longing for more right then as it tasted amazing!

I blushed and moved away, “Umm…”

She looked just as shocked, “Damn, they haven’t done that for a while…”

“Sorry…”

She sighed and shook her head, “I’m sorry, too; that felt amazing!” She kissed me on the mouth again then, and a moment later said, “I wish I could get you to go ahead and empty them…”

I sighed, “Addy, I would love to, but we both know it’s…?”

“Addictive and will probably mess with your control …”

I sighed, “Yeah.”

She hugged me tight as I felt like cold water had been flung on both of us. “Sorry if I ruined your mood,” she told me, “I know how much you fear being seen as a Little.”

I nodded, “Sorry…”

She didn’t respond, though, instead pulling my boxers away and beginning to pay attention to the beast below. “Did you bring any condoms?” She asked me.

I looked at her in shock… “My wallet…?”

“Get one over here…” she told me, “Time to see if this can really work for us.”

A half-hour later, I think we both decided that the pieces still assembled properly. After a trip to the bathroom for us to clean up, we cuddled up and slept together for the first time.
 
 

Chapter 13: Tutored
 

ADDY AND I woke up the next morning and found ourselves repeating the previous night’s gymnastics. We took a shower together, and as she dressed, she said, “I’m going to have to go straight back to school… I need… I need a pump…”

I looked up at her breasts, clad in a bra that she’d stuffed some Kleenex into soak leakage, and said, “Sorry….”

She shook her head, “Not your fault… I mean, it sort of is… but it’s just my body. I saw a Little at the show last night that started crying in the line for the women’s room. She was adorable - that probably started it…”

“Do…” I started to ask but stopped myself, “Never mind.”

“What?” She asked curiously.

“I shouldn’t ask…?”

She laughed, “Go ahead, now I’m curious!”

“Do you really produce milk that easily? I always thought that was a little bit of a Little’s myth.”

She nodded, “I’d prefer if it was, but yeah… Unless you have your own genetic kids, most of us find ourselves producing milk at the drop of a hat.”

“It’s painful?” I asked.

She shrugged, “Not if it comes out… I’m usually good for a day before it gets that bad. I need to get home, though, and get it cleared out. I’ll have to pump a few more times this weekend. Hopefully, it’ll dry up by next weekend.”

I nodded, “Useful genetic trait, I guess, for you all.”

She shrugged, “Not every Little needs to be babied… and a Mid like you certainly doesn’t! Although I did enjoy you sucking on my breasts,” she said. “But I also don’t want to see you shipped off to Wenig, so we’ll have to avoid that bedroom play,” she said with a smile.

On the way back to school, I reflected on how reasonable of a Big that Addy was! I couldn’t help but feel guilty and more than a little curious about what it would have been like to continue to nurse from her. The one mouthful I had was really sweet and tasty! I had often heard of Littles, who fought latching tooth and nail but got hooked as soon as their ‘mommy’ got a drop in their mouth. I had always known that some Littles took one hit, and they couldn’t stop craving it even if they escaped from their forced babyhood. It scared me to think that I might have been more like them…

We shared a passionate kiss outside her dorm, thanking me for the trip, and then we went to get some studying done. By mid-afternoon, I had completed most of my homework but struggled with my programming assignment. I just could not get the damn thing to compile! I decided it was time to seek the cavalry and texted Stacy.

‘Hi Stacy, how are you doing?’

We exchanged pleasantries for a bit before I said, ‘I’m having a hard time with my programming assignment. Any chance you could look over my code?’

I watched some dots telling me she was typing for a couple minutes before she said, ‘Why don’t you come to my house? Amanda could come pick you up?’

‘I have a car, actually… that would work. What’s your address?’ I asked.

She sent it to me, ‘Okay, if I’m there in about twenty minutes?’

‘Sounds good! Mommy said you’re welcome to stay for dinner too.’

I squirmed a bit; even knowing that Stacy was living with someone that had adopted her and another Little made me nervous to be around them. Everything Meg had told me, though, was that things should be safe with her parents. ‘Besides, you’re not a Little,’ I reminded myself as I drove to her place.

I was surprised they lived as far from the university as they did, but I remembered Stacy saying they’d had to move after their house had been attacked. I felt my stomach clench about ever getting mixed up with any of the people who had gone after them!

When I pulled up to a tall gate, I had to get out of the car and stand on my tip-toes to press the call button. I returned to my car and waited for someone, “Can I help you?” I heard a female voice.

“Yes, my name is Cameron; I’m here to get some help on my homework from Stacy?”

“Of course!” the voice said cheerfully, “Come on through; just park in front of the house.”

I drove through the gate down a long driveway and noted the tall walls around the property. ‘They’re serious about security…’ I thought to myself. As soon as I was parked, the door opened, and Stacy came out in the most mature outfit I’d ever seen her dressed in. She wore a simple tucked-in t-shirt and skinny jeggings that would have looked much better without the bulge of the diaper she wore underneath. It really was a good look for her!

“Hi, Cameron!” she said to me with a smile.

“Hi Stacy, thanks for letting me come over to get some help!”

“Any time!” She looked inquisitively at my car, “How do you have a license?”

I smiled, “I’m over seventy-six inches, so I can operate a self-driving car.”

“Can I see?” She asked curiously.

I laughed, “Sure,” and opened the driver’s side for her to look.

“It looks like my car seat,” she said, pointing towards the harness. “And hand controls?”

“For an emergency,” I told her. “And yes, the stupid laws insist on the harness.”

“But at least you can get to places by yourself?” She said with a smile, “That’s so cool!”

I smiled, “It is! Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s in your future…”

She laughed, “No… When I came through and shrank this time, it didn’t give me any chance… I just hope I grow back to my normal height when I go back home.”

I gave her a skeptical look as she led me inside the door. I looked up and saw her tall mommy, Dr. Westerfield, standing by the dining room table. Two high chairs and a few regular chairs surrounded the table. “Hi Cameron, nice to see you again,” Amanda told me. Stacy had introduced me once during the fall when we were having lunch together.

“Nice to see you too,” I told her politely. “Thanks for letting me come over.”

She smiled, “Happy to see Stacy making more friends. Sometimes all she wants to see is the computer screen!”

“Mommy…” Stacy whined.

“Oh hush, you’re at home. Now why don’t you two go upstairs and work in your room? Please keep quiet since Bella is taking a nap.”

“Yes, Ma’am,” I said politely.

I followed Stacy as she did an awkward climb up the tall stairs. Really, they seemed like they had been built tall even to me, but I could still walk up them normally like I did at my own home. Stacy looked like she was practically climbing a mountain with every step! Somehow, she wasn’t out of breath at the top, and I watched her do something with a baby gate that blocked the top of the stairs. I wondered momentarily if we needed ‘an adult,’ but the gate opened for her, and I followed her down the hall. I could see a door that said, ‘Princess Stacy’ on the outside of it in cutesy letters and girly pink and purple colors. Inside her room, I expected an extravagant baby girl-styled nursery. Still, I was surprised to see a regular bed… well, at least a toddler bed, instead of a crib. A rocking chair and changing table were still there, but she also had a desk-sized for her with a computer sitting on it. Alongside it were several other electronic gadgets that didn’t look appropriate for a baby.

She noticed me looking, “Juvenile, I know…”

“More mature than what I expected, actually….”

“Expected a crib?”

I nodded, “I’m surprised you don’t have to sleep in one.”

“When I first arrived, Mo… Amanda made me sleep in one, but my crib went to Bella when she adopted her. Since I’m going to college, they try giving me more freedom as a big girl.”

I nodded.

“Why don’t you set up your laptop over there?” She pointed to a slightly higher workbench desk that I could stand at, and she could comfortably sit in a tall chair next to it.

“Okay,” I told her.

For the next twenty minutes, she looked at what I had done so far, looked at the assignment, and then walked me through what I knew about coding. “I would never do it this way… but I think your professor is looking for something ‘conventional’ here…?”

She showed me the concepts and helped guide me to code the assignment correctly over the next hour. I learned more from her in that hour than in class the previous couple of weeks! When I finally finished and pressed ‘compile,’ I was pleased to see everything on the simple program worked well!

“Thank you so much, Stacy!”

“Anytime… this is kind of my thing,” she said with a smile.

I nodded.

“So, how did your big date with Addy go last night?”

“After we went to the second hotel, it went really well!” I told her.

“Second hotel?”

I sighed, “I may not be a Little, but I’m not tall enough to get away from everything without the sizeism either.”

I told her about it, and then before I knew it was talking about the rest of the night. Somehow the breast milk came up, “I was just, you know….” I felt awkward talking about this with someone so little, “and milk came out…?”

She gasped, “You didn’t actually nurse, did you?”

I shook my head, “No, I know how much damage it can do, unfortunately.”

“Just the damage you’re worried about?”

I blushed, “I’ll be honest, the little bit I had in my mouth tasted really good.”

“It does, doesn’t it?” She smiled.

“Wait, aren’t you planning on going back? And how do you not have bowel problems?”

She blushed now herself and quickly pressed something on her computer. I watched her for a moment before she said, “Sorry, I don’t want to be overheard, so I changed what the baby monitor is hearing,” she pointed towards it.

“She heard all of what I said?!?” I nervously asked.

She laughed, “Probably not? She doesn’t always monitor me when I have friends here.”

“Anyway…?”

“When I came here…” she blushed, “Keep this a secret, please… When I came here, there was a misunderstanding about my name.”

“Huh?”

“In my dimension, Stacy can be a boy’s name.”

The cogs clicked, “You’re a boy?”

She sighed, “I was when I came.”

My stomach twisted, “Amanda made you get a gender adjustment?”

She shook her head, “No, they would have let me be the boy version, but the problem was that Emerson had me enrolled as a girl. We were worried they would use the wrong gender issue to be a reason to give me demerits…?”

“They probably would,” I responded.

“Yeah… honestly, I wasn’t that married to being a man… so I went along with it. Anyway, the nanites that were used still reside in my body. I figured out a way to alter them to filter out the chemical that builds up in the brain and blocks the ability to know you need to go.”

I looked at Stacy like she was some sort of alien. “What?!? How?!? Can you fix anything?”

She sighed, “I have to be really careful with it… There are side effects when you initiate an edit.” She squirmed a bit, then, “It’s how I was able to help Bella, though.”

I nodded, “Don’t worry, I won’t say anything…”

“Thanks…” she said.

“I wish…”

“You wish?”

“I wish I could not worry about it… I would totally help Addy out more…”

She smiled, “You better be careful – she won’t be a girlfriend; she’ll be a mommy!”

I blushed, “I know… Honestly, I wouldn’t want that from anyone else…”

“From her?”

“I much prefer our current relationship,” I said, turning slightly redder.

“Have a good time in bed?” She asked with a smirk.

“After the shock… yeah… Let’s just say that the mechanics do work.”

She laughed, “Probably easier for the guy to move up. I don’t think it would work the other way.”

I shuddered, “No, probably not. My dad moved up, though, too… just not quite as far.”

Our conversation moved on, thankfully, to some other things. Stacy told me a bit about the sorority she had joined, Lambda Delta Pi, and some of the events they did. “That’s cool that you help each other,” I told her. “Why doesn’t Meg join?”

“Good question,” she told me. “I keep trying to get her to join so she can have some extra help. I think she’s convinced that her last year, she will probably be stuck getting adopted no matter what?”

“I know,” I told her. “She said something like that to me once. What about you?”

“What about me?”

“You really think you’ll be able to go home?”

She nodded, “Amanda and Fred promised. And, even though they don’t need the money, they get another payment when I return through the portal to get home.”

“You can’t go home until then? Not even for Christmas and Summer?”

She laughed, “I can’t afford to shrink again! The first time I came, I was near Mid height!”

Right then, Amanda entered and said, “Why don’t you two wash up and come down for dinner?”

“Where’s your restroom?” I asked.

“Right through there,” Stacy told me, pointing to a door attached to her room. “I’ll let you go first, then I’ll wash my hands,” she told me.

“Thanks,” I said, actually feeling a need to go becoming more urgent.

I noticed the smallest child’s potty I’d ever seen sitting there and a step stool for the sink beside a large Bigs’ toilet. Deciding it was already there, I shifted the stepstool to the toilet and used it to sit down and go. I was a little concerned by the sudden urgency. ‘We were working for a while…’ I thought to myself. I was more than a little concerned, though, that even in that one mouthful of Addy’s milk, maybe I had received a high dose of the protein that Stacy had explained. Before Christmas, she’d asked me what I thought about the chemical bonding of that protein chain and another, but I didn’t realize what she was doing with it then!

Soon, I was downstairs and used a booster seat at the table, noting that Stacy and Bella sat in regular baby high chairs. It was a little difference that many might not have noticed, but having feared a life like theirs my whole life, I certainly did! Bella seemed to still have some coordination issues from her ordeal. Still, she mostly seemed to manage the chopped-up roast beef, mashed potatoes, and carrots on her own.

Amanda and Fred made small talk with Stacy and me through most of the dinner. “So, your parents are both taller?” Fred asked me.

“My mom was about ten feet tall; my dad is just over eight feet,” I told him.

“No Littles in your family?” He asked curiously.

I shook my head, “Not sure why I’m the runt of the family; all of my cousins are nine feet tall or taller!”

“My sister is shorter, too,” Amanda said. “You’ve met Megan, right?”

I looked at her and then Stacy, “Meg?”

Stacy giggled, “No, MeGAN, Meg isn’t related. They just happen to have the same name,” Stacy laughed. “I refer to her as Auntie Megan a lot now that I’m hanging out more with Meg,” she said. “Well, when I’m not with the sorority or you.”

Amanda and Fred asked about my life in my dorm, and I filled them in on my roommate’s epic exit and the prankster from the fall. Amanda and Fred both seemed to scowl at their treatment.

“You don’t approve?” I asked curiously.

Amanda sighed, “I never wanted a… traditional… adoption. Stacy here was just insane enough with her plan to interest me, honestly. Bella was a total accident, but we couldn’t let her get taken by the group that wanted her… well, we tried, at least.”

“You did your best, Mommy,” Bella spoke for one of the first times I’d heard her voice.

“I really don’t think a lot of the Littles that end up in care need it,” Amanda said. “Maybe some do… But if they do, their treatment should be a lot kinder. My sisters are terrible to theirs.”

I nodded.

“Sounds kind of like Beth may have made the right choice,” I said.

Stacy looked at me, “Heard anything more since the break?”

I shook my head, “Dad said he’d try and check in with her dad every now and then, but he mentioned seeing an LPS van there a couple times in the last few weeks. I’m hoping they’re not making things worse for them.”

Dinner got quieter there for a bit before Stacy and Amanda started talking about some new computer gadget that went above my head completely. Fred smiled at me, “You’ve kept up with more of their computer talk than most people, but I recognize that look.”

I laughed, “Yeah, Stacy’s awesome, but she will always be one of the nerdiest people I know!”

She stuck her tongue out at me, “Which is why you asked for my help on homework?”

“Well, duh?!?” I smiled. “You don’t ask some dumb jock for tutoring – the nerd is the best bet!”

I hung out with them for a little bit long before deciding I needed to get back to campus. As I was leaving, Amanda approached me, holding Stacy on her right hip. “Umm… Cameron, can you please not mention to anyone that Stacy is still awake right now?”

I looked at my watch and realized it was 8pm. “No problem; I don’t want to get anyone in trouble with Emerson. I’ll probably try and run by a grocery store on my way back so I can say that’s why I’m later too.”

“Thanks, Cameron,” Amanda said. “Please feel free to come over anytime! There aren’t many friends that Stacy has felt comfortable with seeing things here.”

Stacy blushed in her arms. “Honestly, Stacy, I hope you realize how great you have it here. I worried this was my fate for years until my growth spurt last year… and honestly, I still worry it could happen… I never dreamed there was a Big out there who would let their Littles do as much as they let you and Bella. I think you got a fair trade here.”

She nodded, “I’ll see you Monday at lunch?”

“Sounds good. I may have Addy with me; if you and Meg are uncomfortable eating with her, I’ll understand.”

“I’m actually curious to talk to her more… See what you see in her?”

I smiled at that, “See you later,” I told them and got inside my car. I programmed it to drive to a grocery store on the way home and monitored things just in case of an emergency. I couldn’t help but wonder how Stacy had avoided the breastmilk-causing issues. ‘If I had that ability, would I keep nursing from her breasts…?’

When I returned to the dorm, I needed to go to the bathroom urgently again and hoped it wasn’t a sign of possible problems.

Monday, Meg and Stacy joined Addy and me at one of the mixed-size tables for lunch. There seemed to be some great conversations about classes, the differences in the dimensions, and general nerd ideas throughout the meal, as Addy appeared to get the stamp of approval from Stacy and Meg.

“I really think she is a good one,” Stacy told me as I helped her get down.

“Me too,” I told her.

I handed her the backpack she had sat on the table just out of her reach. As I passed it to her, I touched her skin for just a bare moment. Suddenly I felt a serious spark of static electricity! “Ow…” I griped. “I hate that winter always causes static electricity to build up.”

She nodded, “Really annoying, isn’t it?”

I shook my head and said, “Yeah… anyway, we all better get to class. See you later!”

I walked to my next class and couldn’t help but smirk at the idea of what other people probably thought of Addy sitting at the table with all of us.

‘Well… they probably think she wants to adopt a full family…?’
 
 

Thanks for reading! Please leave a comment if you did so and press the Kudos button! I should be posting a few times a week until this is fully posted here on BC. The full novel is complete (65 chapters plus Epilogue) and published on Amazon if you wish to be impatient though!

All of my published works have AI read audiobooks available for them. I’ve spent some time tweaking pronunciations, and they’re pretty good when you can’t afford thousands to pay for audiobook creation! They’re a $1.99 addon to the $5.99 price on Kindle. If you’ve already purchase the book it should come up as only $1.99. They’re also available on Audible directly, but that’s $9.99 versus the cheaper price! https://www.amazon.com/author/babysofia
