Earlier in the week Angie made the acquaintance of a
gorgeous red-haired bicycling commuter. She was astounded to find him showering
naked, in the city parking garage, after his ride. She told her friend and co-worker, Lisa, the story
simply because she couldn't get through the day without telling someone. Lisa
was totally apathetic and indifferent to the incident.
Angie, on the other hand, was so intrigued that she couldn't put the scene out of her mind. At the end of the day, the man’s bicycle was
gone before she arrived at her bus stop. She wondered if she had imagined the
whole experience.
The next morning, when Angie got off of the bus, the blue
Trek bicycle was locked in the bike rack where she had seen the man leave it on
the morning before. In anticipation, her step quickened until she arrived at
the city parking garage.
The wavy red hair showed above the shrubbery that separated
the sidewalk and the public shower in the parking garage. Angie had intended to
confirm the man’s presence, so that she knew that she wasn't crazy. Instead,
she found that she was drawn to the man in the shower just as she was
yesterday.
Angie followed the stepping stone path to the same park
bench where she sat on the day before and seated herself again. The bicyclist
was showering naked just as he had the day before while she watched. He saw her
and smiled.
“You came back.” The man’s even tone did not give up any
emotion one way or the other as to his reaction of her presence.
Angie couldn't speak. She only smiled back and nodded. As
with the day before, Angie watched as the man finished his shower, toweled off
and dressed in business attire. When he departed, once again, he bid her to
have a good day.
Angie’s friend Lisa responded sarcastically when she told
her of her first experience with the red-haired bicyclist yesterday. Therefore,
she kept today’s event to herself. About the next thing, would be for Lisa to
label her a voyeur.
The next day was Friday and Angie was going to walk past the
shower, in the parking garage, with no more than a quick look to see if her man
was there. Why was she thinking of him as “her man” Angie wondered to herself?
Maybe it was that she was drawn back the shower again, even though she intended
to pass by without stopping.
The meeting was much like the previous two days with one
exception. Red-hair had his back to Angie when he dropped his bar of soap. He
bent over to pick it up, exposing the backside of his scrotum, without the slightest indication of inhibition. Angie eyes widened a little.
She had never viewed male anatomy from that angle before.
At work, Angie kept the experience to herself as she had
done on the day before. However, possibilities began to conjure in her mind of
different interactions with the naked red-haired man in the coming week. There
was definitely an attraction.
The man was mounting his bicycle as Angie arrived at the bus
stop that afternoon. He saw her, smiled and wished her a pleasant weekend. She
reciprocated.
On Saturday, Angie borrowed her sister’s car and clocked off
the miles from her apartment to where she got off of the bus for work. She
clocked sixteen miles with the car. However,
the trip was going to be a little bit longer for the bicycle trail that she
would travel along the river but couldn't travel with the car.
When she returned the car, Angie invited Beth, her sister, to
go bicycling with her on Sunday morning. Both she and her sister were fit
enough to make the ride from her apartment to downtown but Angie wanted an idea
of the time required for the ride. Lacking weekday traffic it should go a
little faster but she would still have a good idea.
Angie rose much earlier than usual on Monday morning. She
had a set of panniers for her bicycle. In them, she packed toiletries, clothing
for the office, bottled water, couple of energy bars for snacks and fresh
bicycling clothing for the return trip. She added fifteen minutes to the travel
time of her ride with Beth on Sunday.
When Angie arrived at the bike rack near the bus stop Red
Hair’s bicycle was there already. For a moment, she considered going on to the
office and washing up in the restroom. Instead, she took a breath and hurried
to the shower in the parking garage. She decided that she hadn't gone to this
much trouble only to get cold feet now.
Red Hair was just peeling off his spandex tights when Angie
opened another locker, took off her helmet and shook loose her blond curly
locks. For the first time since they met last week, Red Hair showed more than
neutral emotion. He looked delighted when he recognized Angie.
“Good morning!”
Angie returned the greeting and Red Hair turned and walked to
the shower while she quickly undressed and followed. Most of the inhibitions
that she was feeling dissolved with his acknowledgement of her. Red Hair glanced
over and smiled in order to allow himself a quick look at Angie’s shapely form
as she walked to the shower.
There were six shower heads mounted in a circle from a
single stanchion. Angie took a shower with one space between Red Hair and her.
As bold as she was feeling, she still didn't know exactly what to expect and she
wanted a balance between easy grab reach and appearing aloof.
When Angie stepped into shower Red Hair initiated a
conversation. His name was Ian. Angie introduced herself. Both were bicycling
enthusiasts, though, Angie had never thought of riding to work until last week
when she met Ian.
“What kind of bike do you have?” The conversation gave Ian a
chance to look Angie over without leering.
“I have a Trek FX. I
enjoy riding but I don’t have the means for a bike like yours.”
“It just depends on what kind of riding that you do and what
you can afford. There nothing wrong with an FX. It’s a great bike.”
Ian didn't miss any details of Angie’s attributes. Her fit
body displayed the tone of somebody who took care of herself. Angie’s perky breasts
had solid form and minimal fat. He was impressed with her blond hair on both
ends. He never understood why women with a head of pretty blond hair would dye
the roots and their pubic hair brown.
Ian also didn't miss the little gold ring with a captive
bead that was set with a sapphire-colored stone. That little ring was hard not
to stare at. It intrigued him that she could ride a bicycle with such of a
piercing without discomfort.
The two bicyclists finished their showers, dressed and
headed off to work. Each of them had a little extra energy in their steps as
they walked to their respective offices. Angie wondered where this might go but
had to know much more about Ian before dropping her guard.
Angie invited Lisa, her good friend and coworker, to lunch
that day and told her of the shared shower incident with Ian. Lisa had been unmoved by the incident of Ian in the shower last week but, this time, she was flabbergasted!
“Are you serious, Angie? I can’t believe that you just
stripped down and let him leer at you while sharing the shower. What were you
thinking?”
“Well, Lisa, I was thinking that I needed to bathe because I
just covered 16 miles with my bicycle and I didn't want to do my laundry at the
same time that I was taking a shower.”
very interesting...as always,
