Winnie the Pooh Belly

 It had been three months since I last saw Andy. As we laid together getting caught up on lost time, I couldn’t help but start rubbing his belly. The first thing I noticed when he picked me up was how fat he’d gotten!  It almost looked like he had a basketball under his shirt. When he sat in the recliner, it was really bulging out.  Then When I started rubbing it, he blushed and grabbed my hand. “I know,” he said. “I’m getting way too fat.”  

I tickled him and kissed him so he wouldn’t be embarrassed. “There’s more of you to love.”  He blushed again and said, “WAY more.” 

I rubbed my hand around his big, round midsection and started realizing that his belly was even bigger than I thought!  It was very soft and jiggled when I tickled him. 

Andy said, “When I first came here, I could eat whatever I wanted because no one was here to tell me I couldn’t.”  

I nodded and said, “I know.  We are free.”  

He smiled softly.  He held me close and told me how much he loved and missed me. Leaning up against him felt so safe and comfortable.  The only place to put my arm was around his fat belly, which I kind of loved.  Even though he seemed embarrassed by it, I thought he was super cute.  I loved rubbing it.  Andy told me, “You rubbing my belly makes me feel calm and relaxed.”  

I snuggled closer and started rubbing another area of his tummy.  He said, “Mmmmm” as if rubbing that area felt even better.  Every now and then I snuck in a tickle, which made him jump and giggle with his cute smile.  

I said, “It’s so round.”  He giggled with some embarrassment, but not as much as before.  Then he leaned back more, and made it bulge out further.  I said “Woah, look at that big fat belly!”   I laughed at how damn cute he was.  

“I got so fat so fast, that I had to buy new work pants twice and new work shirts one time.  They just wouldn’t fit around me anymore,” Andy said.  “One of my coworkers said I was roly poly.”  

I didn’t know what roly poly was, but I told him, “It’s like in Winnie the Pooh…” 

Andy said, “I never saw Winnie the Pooh.”  

I explained, “He was a bear that visited a rabbit, and the rabbit’s house door was a hole in the wall.  Winnie ate so much honey at the rabbit’s house that his belly got really big and fat.”  

Andy patted his belly and said, “like me.” 

“Then Winnie the Pooh tried to leave through the hole in the wall, and he was so fat around the middle that he got stuck.”  

Andy laughed.  “I guess I better not try to climb out any windows then.”  

I told him, “I’m going to call you Winnie the Pooh. Just in secret of course. Cause you got such a fat round belly so fast.”  

I continued rubbing his tummy, and he stroked my hair.  “And I got stuck in all my old clothes.”  

I laughed and tickled him again.  But this time I got up and tickled him hard with both hands, which made him laugh so hard he couldn’t speak.

“I love you, Winnie the Pooh”, I said as he laughed “With your big fat jiggling honey belly.”  

I then put one hand on each of his sides and made his belly bounce up and down  He grabbed the end of it laughing hysterically.  Then he calmed down.  “I love you too” he said
