Changes
Eddie groaned with contempt as he stared into the full length mirror with depression creeping over him.
“What's wrong?”
“Ugh, this. I hate it.” He said grabbing the sides of his plush middle.
He used to be smoother and tighter, now there was squish taking the place of his previously rugged body. His shoulders were broad and his arms were still fairly toned and he felt they clashed with the rest of him. He knew it was due to an unfortunate combination of age and their pregnancy just a very short two months ago but that didn't make looking in the mirror any easier. Venom snaked a smooth, inky tentacle out of him and ran it down through his happy trail.
“Love your body, love it so much. Love you.” They crooned to him.
“Come on, V. You can't honestly say you don't prefer the way I used to look.” Eddie scoffed.
“I can honestly say I don't prefer the way you used to look. I'll take you right now if you want.”
"You know, it's actually really hard to feel attractive when you had a baby inside you five weeks ago.”
"You're more enticing than you've ever been and you know I'm a terrible liar." They said before sensually licking at the hollow of his throat.
Eddie crossed his arms and got embarrassed by the shallow cleavage the movement created. Venom wrapped themselves around him, rested their head on his shoulder and purred.
“I mean, I know I'm older now but it wasn't this bad after Carnage.” He complained.
“Can't you burn it off?”
“No. Like it too much.” They bumped their forehead on his temple.
He lightly pinched the fleshy pouch that now sat above his pelvis and beneath his navel and frowned.
“Beautiful, Eddie. Keeps us strong. Carried our baby.”
Extra flesh now padded his middle and his chest, Sleeper had come back around to nursing so that wasn't helping him look any more trim either. Venom ran their hands all over him and massaged his body from the inside out as they rose up behind him and licked across his collarbones. They ran a tendril up and down his back in a way that tickled soothingly. Their well defined bond pulsing with affection flooding him with adoration to the point of overflowing. He let his head fall back to rest on Venom's chest and closed his eyes just feeling them work around his body. If Venom loved this changed body of his so much maybe he could work on loving it too.
