I am 30 years old, and still manage to keep in pretty good shape by swimming, running and weight training. I can still do justice to a pair of Speedos.
Finally, my work schedule has allowed me to get into a routine for working out, and at the gym, I end up running into the same people at certain times. On Wednesday mornings, I get in to the gym early, and swim laps for about one hour with what ends up being the same group of people. They call themselves the breakfast club before I got there, and were initially resistant to "allow" newcomers to share their time. Nevertheless, as this is open time, I just kept quiet, and did my own thing, not really trying to socialize with the "group."
After a few weeks of this, and eventually recognizing many of the same people, and they realized I wasn't going away, a few people began to be more social, and would say hi, and offer the occasional greeting and small talk. There were a few very pretty women in the group, and they were obviously professionals, using the early morning time for working out, before the tough work day began.
After a few more weeks of casual small talk with various regulars, one woman introduced herself to me as Gerri, and we began to become friendly over the next few weeks, and just talk about nothing much for a few minutes each week, both wanting to maximize our time at the pool for exercise.
One of the major benefits of this type of introduction is the fact that at a pool, one can see the physique of the other without too much problem. Gerri was obviously a dedicated swimmer, and had the body of a swimmer, with tight lean muscles, and a shapely figure with broad shoulders, perfect breasts that showed prominent nipples through the wet material, and definitely toned ass and legs.
Definitely excellent attributes. I guessed her to be about 35 or so. One can't help but notice these things, even at 6:00 in the morning. Sort of a guy thing. That part of me doesn't have a problem with early mornings.
Most of the casual conversation was directed towards swimming, techniques, meets, etc. Then after a few more moments of talk, I finally asked what she did, and I was definitely surprised to learn she was a art teacher at the university, and just enjoyed the early mornings to get things going for the day, because if she waited until later, the day's events usually prohibited a regular swim.
I felt the same way, and she gave me a sly look and said her class was always interested in male models for their class, if I was interested. I thought this sounded promising, and asked how much they were offering for the models, and she said $50/hr. All I had to do was sit there, and hold as still as possible. Nothing more. Usually.
I wasn't sure what she meant by the 'usually' but I told her I would think about it, and let her know if a time would work out. She just smiled again and said she thought the class would be quite interested in someone with my physique. I thanked her for the compliment, and we went our ways. She wasn't pushy or anything like that. But there was something in her smile and in her eyes when she smiled that made me more than a little curious as to the class she was teaching. I've never really been hit on, but if I was, this was certainly promising.
Some time later, I had been thinking more and more about the proposition of modeling, and actually, I felt flattered actually. I had never done it before, and I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be clothed, partially clothed, or unclothed. I wasn't sure about the unclothed thing, but we'll see. I ran into Gerri again, and she offered her very sly smile to me again, and asked if I had thought any about her offer to model for her class. They were doing some more male anatomy the next week, and would love to have a new model for their subject.
She said there were about 10-12 people in the class, mostly women, and they were very professional and serious students of art. I would be nude, but that she was sure I would be comfortable and not made to sit in any strange positions for long times, and I would be able to take a break every 15 minutes.
It usually took 2-3 sessions to complete one model, and that way I could be assured of $100-150, for 3 hours of work. Sounded fine to me, I told her and we settled on the time and place.
A week later I arrived at the destination she told me, a room on the second floor of the art building, which looked like the quintessential studio, with easels, chairs, mirrors and tons of other art equipment on the tables and shelves. The room was small, with tall ceilings, and mirrors on the walls. I saw the teacher's desk up front, and a place for the model to sit, a comfortable looking chair next to a stuffed arm chair. Not so bad. So far.
As the students started filing in, they chatted casually, and didn't pay much attention to me. I suppose they were rather used to this. I sure wasn't. I was scanning their faces for someone I knew, or who might know me. But this is a large city and it was quite unlikely. There were about 9 women and 3 men in all.
They all looked so young. I might be almost twice their age. Strange concept. Soon, Gerri introduced me to the class, and they took their places at their respective desks. Gerri pointed me in the direction of the changing area, which consisted of a screen adjacent to the seating area for the models. I felt a combination of nervousness and excitement. Weird feelings as I stripped to the buff behind the screen and proceeded out in front of everyone. I felt all the eyes on me as I sat there, sort of covering myself with my hands, trying to appear casual. Definitely not casual.
