Trigger Therapy, part 5 : Safety First

"You should really all be careful. This is dangerous stuff we're dealing with." They were all seated around the living room of Lynn and Suzanne's apartment. It was pizza night, and Annie had brought Rick for them all to meet him. None of them, not even Rick, remembered exactly how their funny senseless college conversation had turned into Rick lecturing them about the dangers of trigger growth.

"Hold on there a minute," Becka interjected to counteract his authority. "We're all glad to meet someone that knows a little more about what's happening to us. I'm personally glad you explained all about the drug trial. We'll be sure not to tell anyone, as we don't want to get either of you in trouble with your non-disclosure agreements. However, the trigger has done nothing but great things, and I'm not about to go shouting the sky is falling."

Rick wasn't done delivering his message. He did his best to calm himself. "Of course, I'm just saying, there could be long term effects we don't know about. I just want you all to be careful, and put your health first."

Becka flared with a reminder of her ex-boyfriend telling her not to use the trigger again. "You men, always worried about a danger to your masculinity." Annie's body language showed her about to defend her man, when his gentle squeeze told her not to.

He stayed very very calm now. He wanted her to hear his sincerity. "Absolutely not Becka. Believe it or not, some men find the whole thing a turn-on. Every day my friends are talking about how they saw the three of you here or there on campus. Heck, if I knew it was completely safe, I'd trigger Annie myself. I just don't want her to get hurt. I don't want any of you to get hurt."

Becka's could see her emotions were mis-placed, "I apologize. I fought with my ex-boyfriend for weeks about it, and he was certainly not of that mindset. Tell me about the dangers. Is there something we should be watching for?"

He was glad to have broken through. "The trigger is actually based on a natural process. Human Growth Hormone stimulates activity in the cells. It's normally delivered only by the pituitary very slowly over time. The drug serum turns every cell in your body into an HGH factory, the trigger just tells them to run. So it's the same process happening faster." As he explained, he was starting to understand how such fast growth was even possible. The pituitary could never produce HGH that fast, but with every cell in the body a factory, the trigger could create a massive surge. All the blood in the body fully circulates about every minute, so distributing the iodine trigger within a short timeframe was actually quite easy. He lost himself as he was momentarily distracted and astonished at the unintended genius of it all.

Becka continued the serious dialog, "between us we've grown over twenty inches and we haven't seen any ill effects. Do you think the process is dangerous?"

"It's really too early to know anything. What we know is that the four of you of you have experienced something nobody has ever experienced before. There are alot of unknowns." Now that he thought about it, why only women? There had been several rumors around campus, all of them women, none of them in the original drug trial. How was it spreading, and how was this happening only to women?

Becka leaned foward with interest, her elbows against her knees. "But if you had to pin down a yes or no answer. Do you think growing an inch with the trigger is dangerous, life threatening?"

Rick looked to Annie for a moment. Somehow this conversation pinned him in a corner he didn't want to be in. He was trying to discourage them, but he knew his honest answer would do anything but. Still, there was no sense in lying, "no, probably not."

He regretted having said it every day since. Annie had turned the time they spent together into an attempt to both tease him and goad him into giving her the trigger, and now she was getting impatient. "Sweetie, if you don't want to do it, I'm sure the girls will. You said it yourself, an inch won't hurt anything." Before she met them, she was worried about getting too tall. Now getting taller was all she thought about. It didn't help that following his grand safety warning to them, the girls had turned around and done it again, growing another couple inches. Annie didn't do it, after everything I had said to them, but it was no use. Her meeting them everyday and watching them all taller than her just made her want it herself. Thinking to himself he realized Becka must be 6'4". He worried where this was all going.

Not that he hadn't thought about it. He had. He had thought about it so much he knew exactly where the vial of iodine he had purchased was hidden in his drawer. He considered just dosing her drink and surprising her with it, but he worried about it. He didn't want to hurt her. Yet the other girls had done it again, and again, and they were fine. Annie sat on the bed opposite him, distressed look in her face. He realized he couldn't stop her anyhow. "Okay, I'll do it." She immediately perked up, and he begrudgingly left to the kitchen, preparing a water and iodine solution for her to drink. He returned, and she was waiting for him, still visibly gidy from her victory. He handed her the glass. "From what they said, this should take a couple hours to take effect." She drank it down eagerly, her face wincing from the aftertaste, before standing and hugging him for his participation. She realized then why she wanted him to agree to it, why it meant so much to her. It was an acceptance of who she was, Rick wasn't afraid of her getting taller at all! It was late, and they were both tired from the tension of the discussion, so they were both fast asleep before the trigger began to work within her.

Brian and Steve were across one of the school run cafes, doing their best not to be noticed as they were fully entranced staring at the three main Trigger Girls. The term had now spread across campus, along with and increasing frequency of twitter updates. The morning update that brought Brian and Steve to their current state of hottie stalking read #triggergirls have clearly gotten taller, again. Steve's bar for checking out cute girls wasn't very high, having only had a few shortlived half-cute girlfriends before. Brian, on the other hand, was obsessed with asian, and Lynn was turning into the most outrageously hot asian bod he had ever seen. Today she was wearing a white button blouse, black tights, and a black skirt so short callling it a miniskirt didn't seem sufficient. He couldn't keep his eyes off her.

Brian had texted Steve earlier when he realized he needed someone to help carry out his plan, and the two of them had spent the last ten minutes trying to guess how much taller the girls were. "Here's how it's going to work Steve. As soon as they get up to leave, I'm going to accidentally bump into her like I'm not looking where I'm going, once I'm standing next to her, I want you to snap the picture."

"Why don't you just ask for a picture with her?" If there was some kind of genetic karma in action, Steve was a case study. Despite getting the short end of the physical characteristics genes, standing barely 5'6" tall and not exactly a ladykiller, Steve was double-majoring in math and applied physics, and handled his coursework like it was paint-by-numbers. It wasn't unusual for him to attempt to apply emotionless logic to situations that seemed all too sensible, until one actually tried to do it. Brian beamed a look at him that meant, if you're so confident smartypants, you ask her for a photo. "Okay okay, we'll do it your way." They both looked back over and waited. Becka was wearing a trim short-sleeve yellow sweater that looked like it was meant to be normal length but didn't reach her waist, and Suzanne was in tight fitting pair of high-waisted pants and a loose print top which got most of it's volume from her curves.

Just then the girls started to get up and Brian sprang into action. He positioned himself in their path, and did his best not to look in their direction as they approached. Just as they neared, he turned, and stood there stunned as his plan fell apart. First, he was not prepared for Lynn to be more than six inches taller than him in heels! How tall was she? Then, he wasn't prepared for Becka to be taller still. He was standing still, like a deer in headlights watching these three towering college girls walk towards him. It felt like they were looking right at him! "Ohh there you are," Becka shouted out, again right in his direction. They couldn't be talking to him.

He turned around a little too quickly, bumped into a passing student, and was caught by another tower of female presence. "Gotcha. Are you okay?" He straightened himself to look up at least 6" into eyes he recognized. It was Annie! "Ohh it's you Brian."

She relaxed her posture as his mind reeled at how she was towering over him so much. "Whoa yer tall today." She blushed a little, then she laughed.

"Ohh, it's just these shoes. I know they are bit much, but I have to keep up with the Joneses. Speaking of which, Brian, meet Lynn, Becka, and Suzanne. Ladies, this is my boyfriend's friend Brian." He felt tingles down his spine as he turned around. At 5'10", Brian was about average height. However, he felt dwarfed by the Trigger Girls. The large majority of his attention was on Lynn, and how the combination of her height, heels, and clothing held her tits almost up to his chin height. It wasn't until the other girls started laughing that he realized Becka had been holding her hand out to say hello and he hadn't even noticed. His face turned beet red as he shook her hand, and then Suzanne's, then back to Lynn. He felt his heart pounding in his chest from the way she was smiling down at him.

The moment ended all too soon as Becka spoke up, "we need to head out if we want to see that house. Let's go ladies, nice to meet you Brian." They all strode away, leaving him standing in a sea of normal students, walking this way and that to their classes.

"Lynn likes Brian," Becka taunted her dangerously close to where he might still hear them.

Lynn blushed, not knowing now much the noise of the crowed drowned them out, then defended herself, "I'm just not used to getting that kind of attention with Suz around." All the girls knew her meaning. They hadn't just gotten taller, the growth amplified their natural proportions. Suzanne was teased for her well-endowed DDs at five-foot-five, now an astonishing nine inches taller, those mammaries were candy no man's eye could avoid taking in. Not that Lynn wasn't stacked, she was. However, next to Suzanne she was merely ample, and she wasn't used to winning that particular battle for college boy testosterone. She had kind of liked it, and he was kind of cute. Maybe she did like him.

Brian and Steve were at their usual corner of the bar, and Rick had just arrived. This wasn't guy's night, they just often wandered by here to run into friends now. Steve was flipping through the pictures he had proudly snapped of Brian standing next to the Trigger girls, showing them off to Rick. "That's definitely my favorite, that huge girl holding her hand out and Brian looking at Lynn like a lovesick puppy." Brian had intended the pictures to be more of a private thing, so he wasn't too thrilled about the show-n-tell, so he kept his mouth shut and let it all seem more like Steve's idea. Steve flipped by a few more without comment, and stopped on a shot of all four of them walking away. "He Brian, did you see this? You can clearly see how short Annie's heels are, those can't be more than two inches. Man wasn't she like six or seven inches taller than you?" Brian took the phone from him to inspect it, while Steve redirected the question to Rick. "She's a Trigger Girl now isn't she? What is she, six foot two?"

Rick needed a way out of this, and fast. "She has been spending time with those girls. Who knows, I havn't noticed." Except that he had noticed. The morning after she took the trigger, she was giddy to have him measure her. At first he thought her nightshirt looked extra sexy from being pullled around in her sleep. However, when she stood up against the measure, and he saw it read six-foot-three, he knew why it was tighter. Her whole body had actually grown. For a split second he almost regretted helping her, until he looked at her, really looked at her. She was stunning, and he would have started something right there if she hadn't run off to class.

"But is it true? do they really get taller? That would be one seriously interesting bit of science." Steve wasn't letting up. Rick was starting to wonder how long they could keep it up, when he saw Annie striding over towards them. This is either going to get much better or much worse, he thought to himself. "Come on, how tall is your girlfriend?" Annie was standing almost behind Steve now, and had no trouble hearing him.

Annie placed her hand on Steve's shoulder, "Rick's girlfriend is now a proud six-foot-three, though I'm a little taller in these heels." She passed him by and pulled a bench to sit next to Rick. "How ya doin' sweetie?" Rick exchanged a squeeze and a quick kiss during his internal sigh of relief. At least he was off the hook for trying to hide all that. He realized he shouldn't care, it wasn't like the Trigger Girls were hiding. They were strutting around campus, attending classes dressed to be noticed. And he had basically asked Annie to become one of them. It was hard to be concerned for anyone's safety with how casual the girls were treating all this. "Whatcha got there Brian?" His face flushed like he had just been caught in the cookie jar. He hadn't really cared about this whole sleuthing of Annie. He had spent the last several minutes checking out the vantage points of Lynn he could get from the different pictures.

"He's checking out your friend Lynn. He totally has the hots for her." Brian fumed a little, that was the last time he'd call Steve in to partner up on anything private.

"Ohh? You know Lynn totally think's your cute. Would you like to meet her?" Brian's attention and demeanor changed. He forgot all about Steve's indiscretion, as he quickly paid all attention to Annie and snapped out a response, hell ya. "Good, because they want me to invite you all to a little party at their new house. Where is that other friend of yours, Alex?" Brian could barely contain the excitement brewing inside of him, his mind distracted him as it composed the scene, loud music, cheap beer, and Lynn.

Rick fielded that question, "I havn't seen him today. I think he might actually be studying for some law pre-test." Brian and Steve gave him a doubtful eye. It was much more likely he was off with some vulnerable college freshman, or two.

"Well, let him know he should be there, and you too Steve." Steve was stunned at the suggestion. He had only ever looked at the Trigger Girls from afar. Scientific and social curiosity, a very unattainable curiosity. Did he really just get invited to a party with them? Maybe this was a big party, where he'd somehow get lost in a corner with the only other attendee too chicken to actually talk to girls. "This coming Saturday. They'll have the house ready by then. Now if you don't mind, I need to borrow my boyfriend for something important." The grip she had on his hand was unnecessary after he saw the come-hither look in her eyes. He knew the destination she had in mind was much further than the other side of the bar.

She hadn't even been able to make it to his apartment. On the way there she had stopped him to make out twice, so by the time they got to his place he was already pretty hot for her. They hardly made it inside the door when she started into him again, their tongues quickly intertwined. She had worn three inch heels for her meeting with the Trigger Girls, and she liked the resulting eight inch height advantage she had over Rick. With Rick stretching up to meet her lips even with her leaning down to him, the intimacy felt on her terms. Each time she pulled away she saw that look in his eyes, that look of desire. She used and abused her power right now, pulling away and pressing him against the wall. He'd have to climb her to reach those lips now, and the look on his face said he wanted to. "Want something sweetie?" She licked her lips to tantalize him. His hands reached for her, but she quickly grasped and held them. He pushed onto his toes and stretched for her while she did her best to impede him. She stretched her head and neck back while keeping her eyes locked on him. For a moment it seemed he might reach, but as she arched her shoulders, she gained a little distance and simultaneously her chest pushed him a little further out of reach. She got a little rush in the process.

Rick enjoyed her little game. This was the tallest she'd been next to him, and he was finding it a huge turn on. Not able to reach her lips, he sank back onto his heels and turned his attention to something he could reach. Her arched shoulders brought her chest up even high, so he did little more than tip his head down to kiss the top of her breast. She liked it and wanted more. She brought his hands together above his head, noticing how easy he made it for her. She freed a hand to pull her neckline down, and enjoyed watching him nuzzle at her bare breast. Still it only left her wanting more, as he only teased towards her nipple, never touching it. Touche. She tipped his head up and pressed her tongue into his mouth. One hand still holding his over his head, she reached the other down and rubbed against his pants. She stayed there for a few minutes, kissing and rubbing, then led him away.

In front of his bed, she unbuttoned his pants then pulled her own dress over her head. By the time she was finished taking off the rest of her clothes, he was stripped down as well and sitting in front of her. She slightly regretted taking off her shoes, as she was a bit less tall without them, but in a minute it wouldn't matter. She pushed him back on the bed as she straddled up on top of him. Rick was really beginning to wonder what had come over his girlfriend. She had her aggressive moments, but she'd never been so consistently in control. He found it refreshing to sit back and just respond. She leaned over and placed her nipple against his lips where he did what she intended, licking and sucking against it. Without moving too much, she reached into the far bedside drawer to retrieve a condom and straightened up, waiting for him to apply it before continuing.

He liked the way she looked as she lowered herself down on him. They were still sideways across the bed, legs still hanging off the side. She placed her hands against his chest and slowly gyrated her hips against him. With a few months of practice, it wasn't too hard to avoid setting him off before she was ready, but still she was careful. His hands were cupped against her breast, and feeling his fingers press against her nipples helped nudge her whole body to the brink. She shifted on arm away to give him a view of his handwork as she sped up, both sending him over the brink. Rick came, and his spasms and thrusts were all she needed as he felt her climax with him. A few seconds later he broke the silence. "That, was amazing." She just smiled back at him. She wondered if it was a good time to bring up the Trigger Girls all using the trigger one more time.
