The flirting was so shameless and clichΓ© that neither of them took it seriously, especially since they both were married to others. Jackie was a stunning brunette with a dark red tint that ran just below her shoulders. Just 5'6 and 36, she was naturally gorgeous and fit from working out steadfastly, a mother of three, her body would never have hinted at it. She was new to Madison Middle School where she taught. She may have been new to the school, and a new teacher, but she had worked in education for the last ten years. She took a no nonsense attitude to her students and co-workers that left little doubt that she was a master at what she did and that she was not one to be played with and wouldn't take shit from anybody. She had emailed Jason, whom she didn't particularly like, because she was interested in an open coaching position.
Jason was the Athletic Director at Madison, not because he was a big jock, but because he was good at it. He was well organized and energetic. He got things done and stepped up when others stepped away. It didn't hurt that he was a polished smooth talker and at 6'2 and 200lbs, with a short, clean cut look to his dark blonde hair, he could often catch a woman's eye. When he got the email from Jackie, he had to email a teacher buddy to find out who she was. Madison had a high teacher turnover rate and if he didn't directly work with a teacher, it wasn't worth his time getting to know them.
The email he got back from David only had two words. [The walk.]
Ahh. The walk. More appropriate perhaps, would be 'the sway'. Jason was often in David's room just to bull shit. David was a 3 sport coach and was the senior teacher on staff, with Jason second only to him. David and Jason were often in the hall when Jackie would walk by, being in the classroom right next to David. And Jackie... Jackie swayed. She had the curves of a woman that would make any man turn his head. And Jackie knew it. She would often turn her head back to see if they were looking. 'What a bunch of dicks' she thought to herself as they turned trying to pretend they weren't watching her. She knew she had a sway and while part of her tried not to, another part of her liked getting some attention.
Jason then took the opportunity to flirt with her as he wrote a reply to her email. [You have to be willing to work under me.] She thought about how to reply. While she didn't like most men, Jason included, she knew how to get what she wanted by how she made a man feel, either appeal to their ego or their sex drive. [I think I could handle that quite well,] she wrote back. Jason was a computer science teacher, so he always had access to his email and was able to respond quickly. [I'll add you to the list of people who want to apply, we'll interview, and I'll see if I have a position for you.]
[I can fill most positions pretty well.] Jackie wrote back. She may not like him, but he was sexy and she wanted the coaching job, she could afford to flirt a little.
Jason went ahead and was more forward in his next email. [Has anyone told you how beautiful you are lately?]
[Just this morning.] She replied. Jason took that as her being done with this line of flirtation. After all, they were both married and this wasn't going anywhere anyway. Over the next few months, Jackie got the coaching job, being ridiculously qualified, and was racking up quite a few wins. Jason and Jackie now spent more time together as he helped guide her through the fog of the business side of athletics, getting games scheduled, ordering buses, etc. Jackie was happy to let Jason help, less she had to do, and she felt quite flattered when she would turn and lock eyes with Jason. He had this innate ability to capture her with just his eyes, as if he was searching for her soul in her eyes. He flattered her with his gentle attention. Meanwhile Jason was happy to help her as he was quickly becoming addicted to her. Not only was she stunning, but she was smart as hell, and had an air of self-confidence that make her a fierce and passionate woman. She was strong willed and independent. Although he deeply enjoyed letting his eyes glide over her body, it was when he met her eyes that he would lose his breath.
[If the bus is only taking us one way for the championships, how do I get back to the school?] Jackie had her team playing in the championships on Friday and she knew she could count on Jason to help. She had quickly learned that he was the type of man you could rely on. She felt safe and comfortable with him, a way she rarely felt around men.
