Damn it! I forgot about this story for MONTHS!
I wrote it in September... Yup, 2021!
I was checking something and saw it, then ed that I probably wrote this for
Sebastos / 
BuoyantBliss ' burstday!
Anyway, enjoy a big balloon's night!
===========
It was midnight, and Bliss was bored.
It wasn’t like it never happened, but tonight was a tedious night. He really was eager when his master offered to bring him to a party! But after anticipating being part of the decoration, or even the games of the night, but he soon understood that he was brought to THIS kind of party.
The guests were too old to play games, and were looking so serious… He could say snooty, but this would be an understatement. Everyone was talking about work, trends, stocks… Some fleshies were even ranting about politics in a corner! And in the middle was the tiny balloon, trying to not squeak too loudly as people were staring at them with a dissatisfied glare, even the other balloonies, and forced to follow his owner. This later was discussing business, and was holding his string, but it was so dumb, he wasn’t even floating! Ground felt so painfully close under his paws!
Of course, he tried to fit in and, at least, enjoy what the party had to offer! He got offered a nice glass of helium, and gladly accepted it. But at the second the gassy drink touched his lips; he made a frown of disgust. That was float-free helium! What kind of barbarian could drink that?
The toasts were in the same manners, he never felt something so bland! But it wasn’t so surprising; He was in one of THOSE parties. He was at the point to hope someone would step on his tail. At least, the squeaking and displacement of air would make him feel something, but everyone was keeping space from each other. He wouldn’t dare to mess with his master, seeing how busy guests were talking about their new products…
“I’m sorry cutie” He heard “But it won’t be too long before I need you!” His ears perked. Need? His master never told him that he was being needed. But now that he was thinking about it, his master would never have brought in such a place if there wasn’t something he would do. Still, the night was long, and the balloon would rather be laying on his ceiling bed at this point. The chatting was still being loud, as his master grabbed a glass, and hit it several time to make noise. People around started to look at were the sound was coming and saw someone trying to get some attention. The place got a bit more silent, even if some people were too busy talking more. It wasn’t the first toast of the night, and this one may be less interesting than their actual conversation.
“Ladies and gentlemen. I want first to thank the mistress of this garden for inviting me to this sumptuous place. And to everyone here for greeting me.
I know that I am a nobody for most people here, but if I came tonight, it is to show you a little something that may be one of the new products of the company!”
Pulling Bliss’ string, his master lifted it. A few people went back to their discussion, annoyed by the fact this newcomer just went to show them a string. What a bother. They already had bonds strong enough to hold blimps, so what about this one?
His master then pulled something and tied the extremity of the string to it. As Bliss tilted his head to watch what this thing was, he spotted a kind of those action movies detonators. The ones with the shiny red button on the top. The puzzled balloon tilted his head even more, before hearing “You’d better cover your ears!” and feeling his master lifting him.
Oddly, it took him a second to fully understand what was happening. But Bliss eventually understood to what this detonator was linked to. But he got thrown in the air before he could move, and saw the button being pressed before his paws reached his ears.
KABOOM
A flash of light and the soundwave shook the crowd. But it wasn’t anything compared to what the balloon went through. He hasn’t done this sound, but whatever did it was INSIDE of him. And it wasn’t just light and sound. He could feel many guests being pressed under him as his belly grew in a single second to a dangerous size. The garden was huge, enough to fit a transport blimp, but there were a few places that weren’t under him after the explosion happened. His body felt on the rupture point, but oddly, having his belly growing thousand folds in a second hasn’t finished it. The violent air rush soon leaving the oh so tight belly to fill the rest of the balloon, as a loud creak echoed in the area. It looked comically fun how the inside was shifting from place to place, and it seemed like it wouldn’t stabilise. Bliss finally understood why his master put the string on the belly knot, and not on his tail like most of the time. He really was a giant blimp over the crowd, and the master would casually hold him, now above the crowd that got a bit shook, but there were a lot of persons that were looking interested in what was shown.
“This is the last prototype I made of the fwoomp-it-yourself®! We know how many times there have been an emergency that could have been prevented by such an emergency blimp. But thanks to this button, you can make sure that your balloon will show its full potential! I choose to not bring the extra light version, or I would already being floating away. But as you can imagine, the potential of discombobulation, room filling, and pressure giving, can have many uses!”
Bliss, blushing red, already stopped listening. Not only there were amazed gazes, but he was feeling so great! He never saw this device, but he sure will buy a pack when everything will be over. A few future customer or work mates were talking, louder than ever, and a session of questions and answers happened. He even felt someone sneaking a few rubs, and his master gently tugging the string. The party may have been awful, he wasn’t regretting being here anymore!
If it wasn’t for this unicorn coming close…
This guy has been staring with such a mean grin since the explosion, and as much as Bliss saw him, he wasn’t able to move or anything. His mouth was unable to move with all the pressure retaining him, creaks were the only sound he could produce, but he hasn’t stopped making them, uncontrollably. Some people in the assistance have been covering their ears since a while now, and even Bliss wondered why he hasn’t popped hearing them all.
Yet, despise the thick crowd, and the dangerously loud creak, the unicorn was proudly coming close. A grin growing along with how close his long and pointy horn was getting to this giant orb. Balloonies sure were fun to chat with, but he wouldn’t miss an occasion to have THIS fun if one was taunting him with its ginormous size! Better teach him to not mess with equines when they had pointy bits!
The unicorn came out of Bliss’ field of view, and he was panicked. He wasn’t even able to cover his ears, his limbs were uselessly small around his belly. He was feeling so good, so full, but he knew it wouldn’t last long. Bliss was the kind of balloon to know his limits. And no matter how good of a balloon he was, a little pointy poke is just enough to make him litter everyone with tiny confetti. And an unicorn horn is well known to be balloons’ natural enemies, able to magically pop them in the most efficient way if the poke wasn’t enough.
Any second now. The balloon could only close his eyes in anticipation. At least, he’ll be a nice show twice! He could still hear his master talking to curious persons, and being too busy to notice the imminent fate of the…
“Whoops!”
Bliss heard his master saying this but was too tensed to comprehend what was happening. He was just waiting for the poke that will liberate the poor trapped helium. The poke sure took time to happen. Was he so huge that the unicorn had to walk for so long? And why was he feeling so light suddenly, the strain on his belly relieved as… Wait, he knows this feeling!
Bliss opened his eyes and couldn’t believe it. He was floating away! The garden with all the decorative lights was just a shiny rectangle now, and as he felt the cold air flowing, his relief grew. He sure was in his element now, rising like a moon in the night sky. The party was just a blur now, and as he was getting higher, his mind was emptying all worries. He was a good balloon at the right place.
His mind wandered as his body creaked and groaned loudly. He was so blissful of those feelings. Sure, he won’t last long as he’ll rise to depressurizing heights, but the cold air and the stars blinking at him, giving a show like if it was only for him, made him thankful for this ride.
Below him, he was seeing a large city. It was so small! He was so big! His mind started to imagine his tight body covering the whole place, and he giggled a bit, blushing at the thought that someone may spot him and would want to be his new master. The last one got a bit too clumsy. Well, it wouldn’t be the balloon’s loss, right?
He eventually felt his body stabilizing. Damn, this inside bomb thing sure was violent! He felt his whole body shaking for a good half hour! But this feeling was nice, like waves hitting a shore, before retracting again, and again.
He wasn’t going to last long for sure. But unlike before, Bliss was serene. This boom won’t be made by a selfish poke, but with a generous rain of latex for the city under him. Many people will be able to enjoy this single firework. Sorry for the ones sleeping by the way! Bliss was smiling at the thought of a late-staying kid pointing at the sky, looking at this huge orb. “I am going to pop for you, and all the other that love big balloons!” He thought.
But something heavy just hit him before his mind went further.
“You were not thinking to explode without me being around, right?”
His master? How did he get here? But after a few bounces, he saw he was right. His master was riding him, leaving the balloon as a blushing mess.
“Thank you so much by the way! I was sure our department’s invention would be such a hit, but with you by my side, we’ll be out of stock in no time!”
A kiss got on his back, and the balloon blushed more than ever. A tiny bit of massaging was happening too, and the happy feelings were getting stronger every seconds.
“Anyways. I wouldn’t let you go so easily. I know you enjoy floating away, but with me, you won’t be able to rise. But will you really mind if we get down together?”
Only creaks answered.
“That’s what I thought. Well, let’s use this night to make this balloon getting ALL the rewards for his performance! And maybe we will be able to discuss about your next ment session? I may let you bang for the crowd’s pleasure this time, without any unicorn involved!”
It took hours to land back on the earth. And almost as long to make Bliss back to an acceptable size. Even if he was too embarrassed to talk properly, he could move his limbs as he wanted now. And despise the “tiny” balloon he now was, he was floating, only a string away from getting up again. His owner knowing this and casually tugging him up and down with a grin.
It was a good night, after all…
