It was a warm spring day. Pauline was enjoying her first free Saturday in a long time. At 36, she was a successful intellectual property lawyer. This meant long hours at the office, and little time to enjoy some of the financial perks that came with the job. Nonetheless, she enjoyed the intellectual challenge and was able to juggle work with regular visits to her favourite swimming pool.
Recently, she was able to buy a nice little house, with its own pool in a good neighbourhood. Secluded from both neighbouring villas by a tall hedge, it was cosy and completely hers to do with as she pleased. After a short but hectic week in which she worked full-time and moved her meagre belongings from the dingy flat she rented in the city to the semi-suburbs, she could finally look forward to a weekend off.
This particular Saturday she had woken up early, put on her swim suit, swimming cap to keep her long, brown hair out her face and goggles as she disliked opening her eyes under water. Not the sexiest look maybe, she reflected, as she glanced in the mirror. But worth it as the exercise gave her body a lithe, toned look and, more importantly, allowed her to relax and feel graceful in a way she never quite did when not in the water.
As the first rays of sun hit the water she dove in and swam at a brisk pace for three quarters of an hour, alternating freestyle with short distances of butterfly stroke. Feeling energised rather than tired after the swim, she got out of the pool, took off her goggles and swimming cap, shrugged on her bathrobe and started exploring her garden. Standing on her tippy-toes she could just look over the neighbour's hedge on the one side. No one home.
Moving closer to the other side, however, she could hear faint grunts and metal clanging. The hedge on this side was slightly taller, but less dense. In one spot she found she had a more or less clear view of the neighbour's patio.
On it, the neighbour's college son was exercising. She watched as he alternated deadlifting what looked like a fairly heavy barbell and doing v-ups. Each time as he picked up the weight, she could see the muscles in his back tense through his shirt and the focussed strain in his arms.
It wasn't long before he took off his shirt revealing a neat six-pack, a strong chest and a broad set of shoulders. He shaded his freckled face, blue eyes and ran his fingers through his short blonde hair before continuing his workout. The sight of him grunting, the sweat drops building on his taut muscles as he continued to lift stirred something in Pauline. Still on her own exercise high, she felt her pulse quickening. It
had
been a while after all. As she watched the youth, she started to caress her nipples through the fabric of her swim suit, the fabric muting the sensation to a teasing brush. With her other hand she lightly stroked her bare legs.
The youth had moved on to a slow set of bicep curls. She could see the swell of his bicep with each repetition grow slightly. The build-up of tension continued, and her hand got closer and closer to her crotch. Soon she was massaging her clitoris through the fabric of the swimming suit. Slowly and lightly at first, with her eyes half closed seeing the shapes of his muscles play on his bronzed skin. Contract and release.
The warm spring sun on her skin combined with a small breeze felt like a soft touch all over her body. She increased the pace and the pressure on her clitoris and a small moan escaped her before she could stop herself. Luckily, he didn't seem to have noticed. She closed her eyes for a few moments and focussed on the sensations and the after-image of the muscular lifter. Of her hand on her now hard nipples. Her teeth lightly biting her lower lip. Her quickened breathing. The shuddering waves of pleasure emanating from her clitoris.
Abruptly, the sun seemed to have disappeared. Instead, she could feel the heat of another body closer to her. Could it be? No...
'Need some help with that?' A deep voice spoke softly behind her.
'What are you doing ... why... ah...' She tried to respond.
