Two best friends, Tod and Jake, are relaxing at the beach. Both wore their favorite swim trunks and sandals. Jake was an overweight teen with brown hair and blue eyes, while Tod was a slender teen with black hair and green eyes. The two friends were eagerly waiting for this day, and that day had arrived.

Jake and Tod made their way to a decent spot on the beach; barely any people were around. Jake happily chuckled as the sun shone bright. "What a great day, don't you think, Tod?" "Yeah, feels good. So, why'd we come out here, Jake; you mentioned you wanted to show me something?" "I will in a minute, Tod." Jake looked to see if anyone was looking; no one was. "Okay, Tod, I'm ready." Tod wasn't sure what his friend wanted to show him. "So, what'd you wanted to show me?"

Jake spoke not a word; he just stood there. Suddenly, Jake starts to inflate. Tod nearly lost his footing when he saw Jake start to swell. "Jake, what's happening to you?" exclaimed Tod. "It's alright, Tod," rest assured Jake. "But, Jake, you're getting bigger." "I know; want to see how big I can get?" Tod was rendered quiet.

Jake continued to swell. His body grew fatter and fatter. Tod watched in awe as his best friend billowed and bulged. Jake soon starts rounding out like a ball, his fattening limbs sticking out and his face getting fuller, but his smile never falters. Jake got rounder and rounder and slowly lifted off the ground, but his body kept expanding. That's when Tod realized, "Jake, you're blowing up like a balloon." Jake's smile deepened, "Sure am; I've been one since I was born." "But, how is that possible?" "Well, you might say I'm unordinary; I'm a Rubballoonoid." "A Rubballoonoid?"

Jake became even rounder and rounder and lifted higher and higher. Tod was amazed by how big Jake was getting and baffled by how Jake's swim trunks and sandals were still intact. Jake eventually stopped expanding and hovered in midair like a big balloon. "Jake, you got to tell me, what is a Rubballoonoid?" "Simple, really; I'm a humanoid with a rubbery body that can blow up like a balloon." "Is this what you wanted to show me; is this how big you can get?" "Yep, I wanted to show you that I'm a Rubballoonoid. And I can get bigger than this; I didn't want to get so big I float away." Tod could understand why; Jake wanted to demonstrate his abilities, not his full extent.

Jake eventually deflated to his overweight figure and sighed happily. "Man, it feels great to inflate once in a while; I do it every time if I didn't have to worry about prying eyes." "Do you feel uncomfortable doing it in front of others, Jake?" "Hardly; I prefer to be shirtless when I do it; inflating while in a shirt feels weird." Tod slightly chuckles, "Jake, you're a funny guy." Both friends laughed. "Jake, thank you for showing me who you really are." Jake beamed proudly, "No problem, buddy." "If it's alright, could you show me how big you can get next time?" Jake gives Tod a thumbs-up, "Can do, but you'll have to tie me down to something heavy, or I'll float away." "Deal," and Jake and Tod shook hands.
