Part 1
** Chapter 1 **
Laura stood across the street taking in the multi story glass apartment building. Above the main entrance were the words "Hardbody Apartments". She could see there was construction going on by the chute that came out on the side midway up the tower and led to a dumpster on the ground. She was a little early for her tour and a chance to meet Luke Armstrong who was the owner of Hardbody Studios and of this apartment building.
It was a curious conversation she had with Luke on the phone when he invited her here. He was very interested in meeting her because of some of the videos she and her boyfriend posted on the internet of various posing, measuring, and displays of strength.
He was very persuasive and offered to pay for all her expenses to come out to California to meet him and see the apartment building. After a little research she was able to confirm he was who he said he was and she was convinced to fly to California to hear him out. She was terribly afraid of flying but she faced her fears and now here she stood.
Laura crossed the street and made her way into the main entrance. It was a very simple and nice lobby in the center of the building. It was all light marble that was accented by dark wood tones. There was seating on either side of the entrance and straight ahead was a marble desk with a woman working behind it. As she approached she could see the woman was very beautiful and was in great shape. She was muscular, not like a bodybuilder but maybe more like a bikini or fitness competitor.
She noticed Laura and looked up with a little shock on her face. She tended to have that effect on people when they first met her. She was wearing loose fitting clothes to try and hide her incredibly muscled frame, but there was only so much she could do.
The woman quickly turned her expression from shock to a welcoming smile. "Hi, you must be Ms. Stone," she said.
"Hi, yes, I am here for a tour and to meet Mr. Armstrong."
"Of course Ms. Stone. I will call Ms. Rachel down, she is Mr. Armstrong's assistant. She will be your guide today as she takes you around the apartment."
"Thank you." Laura said as she looked around the lobby.
"Can I get you anything while you wait?" The receptionist asked.
"Oh, no thank you, I am fine."
"Well, feel free to have a seat or look around. On this level there is a restaurant and a clothing store," she offered.
Laura looked around the lobby as the receptionist made her call. The lobby had glass walls on either side so she could see into the neighboring businesses. On her left side she could see a bar running the length of the room and in the back there were tables set up where she could see a couple of people eating. Above the glass doors leading in it said "Deadlift Bar & Grill". She chuckled to herself thinking about the name.
Behind the partition wall by the reception desk looked like a bank of elevators and in the corner was a security guard looking at an array of monitors. He was definitely a bodybuilder, possibly pro level. She could only see him from the chest up but his arms looked massive and his chest and shoulders filled out his uniform.
She looked to the right and could see racks of clothes through the glass wall. Above the doors leading in was a sign that said "Hb Apparel", with the b serving as the second line of the capital H. It looked like a nice store and it drew her in through the doors.
"Welcome, let me know if you have any questions Ms. Stone." Announced a sales associate from the other side of the store.
The use of her name caught Laura off guard. There was a man and a woman that smiled at her after she located where the voice came from, they were also clearly bodybuilders. Did everyone in the building know who she was, she thought to herself. Also, everyone she saw so far looked like they could get on a bodybuilding stage.
She looked through one of the racks of casual apparel that looked like it could actually fit her. Being as large as she was, she often found it impossible to find clothes that fit her other than baggy workout clothes. She pulled out a pair of jeans that were labeled XL, but the waist still looked like it was fairly small. The material was softer than denim and seemed to have a little bit of stretch to it.
She put them back and kept looking around the store. They had all sorts of clothes from dresses to workout tops, and they all seemed to be sized for a more muscular frame. She couldn't believe the assortment of options. She was so used to only wearing sweatpants that she thought that was going to be her only option in life.
"Impressive selection of clothes isn't it?"
Laura looked up to see a beautiful woman greeting her with her hand extended.
"I am Rachel, it's so nice to meet you." She said as they shook hands.
"Hi, I'm Laura."
Both women looked each other up and down. Rachel was wearing a cute little pink dress that hugged her curves revealing a muscular but curvy body. She had very dark, almost black silky hair with intelligent piercing blue eyes. Laura couldn't believe the contrast in her body, she was very lean and muscular like a small bodybuilder or physique competitor, but she had massive boobs with a very small waist.
To say Rachel was curvy was an understatement. Her boobs looked like they were the size of a volleyball, possibly even bigger. As far as Laura could tell they were not fake as she watched them bounce and sway naturally spilling out of her dress.
The dress was a thin material with a lot of cleavage leaving little to the imagination. In fact, it didn't look like she was even wearing a bra because her large nipples were protruding out like firm blueberries.
"So what do you think of the store?" Rachel asked.
"It seems like a lot of these clothes might actually fit me."
"This store is for bodybuilders only, all the clothes in here are specifically designed for a big muscular frame. Why don't you pick something nice, this would be a good start to the tour."
"I don't want to take up too much of your time." Laura said.
"I have the whole day blocked, and of course you wouldn't have to pay for it. Come on, let's find something interesting. There is actually a lot of couture in here."
Rachel looked Laura up and down, and then looked around the store.
"Come with me, I know exactly what you need. How many outfits do you have for going out for a fancy evening?" Rachel asked.
"I don't have anything. The only clothes that fit me are baggy sweatpants."
"How about this?" Rachel asked while holding up a black pair of leather pants.
"There is no way I could wear those." Laura stated.
"Humor me, I think they will look hot." Rachel said as she handed the pants over to Laura.
