We were well into the next summer and once again hosting a neighborhood party. Heidi and I had managed multiple times to see each other since last fall. As the party went into early evening the bucket list discussion started up again with several of the guys asking how my list was going. When I would talk about some of the things that I had done they booed and said "Not that list."
I laughed it off and walked up to stand next to Clara and addressed the crowd. "Clara, I was joking. Tell them that." She didn't even smile and walked off to talk with some of the wives.
Later I was at the dessert table and Rebecca joined me. Rebecca is a Dental Hygienist who happens to be a workout warrior. She is always at the gym, swimming laps in our pool or out jogging. I work out myself but am nowhere near her level.
"You have gotten a lot of mileage off that bucket list joke," she stated. "It has been amusing to see how you get under Clara's skin."
"All fun and games Rebecca although it shouldn't be so easy with how smart that she is," I responded.
"So," she said quietly. "If that list was real, I am guessing Clara would be at the top."
"Actually no," I replied. "She is stunningly beautiful, smart and a strong woman which I am normally attracted to. But she lacks personality and warmth so I am not sexually attracted to her at all."
Rebecca grabbed a brownie and looked at me. She shook her head and exclaimed "Wow, if a beauty like Clara isn't on your list, I can't imagine who is."
I sensed an opportunity. "First of all, Rebecca, you are very attractive. You keep yourself in great shape and as I am choking on your dust jogging, I watch your great ass and can't help wonder what all of those toned muscles would do to me. In fact, if the list was real, you would easily be at the top with no close contenders."
Silence as she finished her brownie. She turned and walked past me dragging her hand across my arm and as she was behind me said, "Well then it is fortunate for us that it is not real."
Over the next several weeks I would often see Rebecca jogging but did not get a chance to talk with her. One Friday night I was dragging myself home at the end of a jog and she was doing some yard work. I stopped to rest and chat her up. "Not jogging tonight?"
"Not tonight, I have to finish this yard work but I plan on a big workout tomorrow morning. Hubby will be golfing and I will be jogging arriving at the park around 10:00. It would be nice to work out with someone there."
I looked at her and told her I would be there at 10:00 and that a good place to meet would be at the picnic tables located in the back of the park. She smiled and returned to her yard work.
The next morning my wife was surprised that I was running again but I assured her I was just trying to get in shape. Normally when I run, I bring a hand towel but today I grabbed a full towel which was needed for my plan. I arrived at the park around 9:45 and worked my way to the back where a few of the picnic tables were somewhat secluded. I found the most secluded one and wiped it down. I looked up to see Rebecca jogging towards me with a pony tail that was bouncing back and forth. A very sexy look and my member responded appropriately.
