Dandy adjusted the collar of his Holiday attire – a lovely dark maroon sweater he gotten last year as a gift – and set the label on the table. He returned to the kitchen, eggnog still in hand. He was thinking about refrigerating it when he paused, looking down at the bottle again. He wondered what the eggnog tasted like. Thinking it over for a moment, he finally brought his hand up to twist the cap off.
“Eh, it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try. Besides, it’s everlasting eggnog. There’s no way I can waste any.”
Popping off the cap, he peered into the bottle to see the creamy drink still present. Forgetting to grab a glass, he brought it to his lips and tilted the back of the bottle up – a little too fast. Luckily, he was faster, and he shifted the bottle just so the liquid only sloshed up against his upper lip. He got a mouthful and brought the bottle back down.
The experience was nothing like he ever imagined. The eggnog was extremely rich and creamy, and the taste enchanted his tastebuds. He found no difficulty in swallowing, and the cream rushed down his throat, leaving behind a film of eggnog in his mouth that continued to stimulate his sense in the most pleasurable way.
The eggnog had one more thing that came to Dandy as a shock – it was warm, almost like someone had put it over a stove before serving it.
He felt the bottle. The liquid inside was still room temperature.
“Huh, that’s weird,” Dandy raised an eyebrow. He licked his lips clean of the extra nog. “I think I can taste nutmeg… and… maybe a trace of cinnamon?”
He took another sip, this time larger. His mouth flooded again with the magically warm, thick eggnog. He swallowed again, and he felt the drink drop down and enter his stomach. He looked down at his belly and rubbed it slightly. The nog had begun to warm up his entire body, starting from the stomach. He sighed. This was amazing.
He looked at the bottle again. He could definitely go for more than just two swigs. Why not? It was Everlasting Eggnog! He could have as much as he wanted and still have enough for the party tomorrow! He brought the tip of the bottle to his mouth and took another drink. More of the creamy beverage traveled through his mouth and into his stomach. He brought it down again, sighing in pleasure.
He was so wrapped up in the taste, he barely noticed his belly puffing out. The eggnog was not only adding warmth to his body but also girth -- one of the few side effects that were noted in the card that he thought best to ignore…
