From Fuck-toy to Cougar
(This is a slightly edited version of Fuck-Toy and was the inspiration for the 'Then Something Happened' series. The Cougar appears again in later stories. There are passing references to BDSM and Lesbian activities.)
Chapter 4.
I was going through a hard time, a recently divorced Plain Jane, boring job, no prospects, a woman of 28. That just about describes me and my past life perfectly, a nobody, a non-entity!
As I lay in bed that morning, I re-viewed my life and where I was headed. Dead end job, a check-out girl at the local supermarket, always eager to do extra shift as shelf filler. Divorced, never complains if groped, not a troublemaker. A useful bimbo!
My ex-husband had said at the divorce hearing that I had insisted upon, 'She has let herself go.' that described me in a nutshell. I had had four miss-carriages in five years, I was afraid of having unprotected sex, and by then afraid of sex!
With no children and an upwardly mobile ex who was determined to go places, I was holding him back, the divorce was granted. I moved out of our small home that I admit was never too clean, never really homely and moved into a squalid flat. A room, a shared bathroom. Filthy environment, not the sort of place one invited one's parents to visit!
I had had a bright future, a 'B' grade student who got pregnant the first time I tried sex. We Got married, I miss-carried, the marriage went south from there...
As I reflected upon my life and prospects which looked rather dismal, a germ of an idea occurred to me, 'Perhaps I could turn my life around!'
I got up dashed to the shower before the rest of the buildings occupants, dressed and went to work, early turn at the check-out. My brain was at last working!
As I scanned merchandise, rang up cash and credit card transactions I was only half there, I was thinking, looking at options, discarding them as quickly as they occurred, 'Win Lotto', 'Rob a Bank' sort of thoughts....
My Shift at the check-out ended and I accepted the generous offer of shelf filler, by a man who liked to grope me! 'Gota do what a Gals Gota do!'
My brain hardly registered the quick grope, I filled shelves for four hours and went home to think. I was never going to get out of this situation if I did not take charge!
A 'B' grade student that had not finished school, but I could touch type, I knew my way around a computer! I scanned the local rags job vacancy adverts and spotted a very low-level advert for data entry staff. I rang the number and had an interview scheduled for the next day!
I got the job. I stiffed the jerk who had been groping me at the supermarket and got fired, lol!
The new job was a walk in the park, I was very soon the fastest data entry girl they had, they made me a sort of supervisor, mentor to the other girls, there was NOT a man employed in that lowly position.
I turned twenty-nine, I got promoted, I moved to a better neighborhood. My new abode was self-contained. I had a bank balance!
I was frustrated beyond belief; my sex toy was no longer satisfying me. 'I need an electric one' I thought to myself!
Now when my ex said at the divorce hearing that I had let myself go, he was quite right. I was twenty kilograms over weight and that was looking before the scales had settled, so probably more like 25!
I joined a local fitness club as a temporary member, the fact that my ex was a member did not deter me, he was a lie-a-bed sluggard in the mornings. I intended to be there when they opened and be gone before eight am!
Exercise in a clean airy environment early in the day for just a few bucks and lots of eye candy while you do it!
I confess those fitness jocks had bodies I craved for, I dreamed about them using my body!
As my fitness improved and I shed pounds then stones I noticed I was getting some attention!
At work my mature attitude and professional performance was being recognized, I was promoted, but still in the data entry division.
Quite a number of employees used the same fitness center and as inevitable I got to hear gossip, who was doing who, who was a good fuck, who was a sadistic bastard. In one ear out the other, then I realized this was information I could use to my advantage!
My situation had improved, I was gainfully employed with a stable if limited future ahead of me, I heard through the grapevine my Ex was doing extremely well.
I worked out, I became 'Toned' I heard comments about my 'Hot' body, the Fuck-toy in the red leotard... There never had been any miss-propriety. I just got admiring looks, ok I confess I wish that had been more!
I was almost thirty, my career as supervisor of the data entry personnel was secure. I had a nice apartment. I was looked at as a 'Fuck-toy' at the fitness center, admiring glances, compliments even, but never approached for a date!
I wondered about coming out and announcing that I was and had been a lesbian all these years.... Na not me, lol.
OK so what happened to upset my apple-cart?
Thirty something female, No Kids, divorced, gainfully employed, FRUSTRATED...... get the picture I was ripe to be plucked!
