Driving home, Maureen thought about her aerobics class, her workout, and the new gym she had just joined, Fitness Today. She had hoped that by joining an exclusively female facility it would help her take her mind off of men. At 35 years old, and newly divorced, she needed to get her mind off of relationships, and men in general. Her second marriage had ended with a thud, and she couldn't help but feel unattractive, unwanted. Not that men didn't find her attractive; at 5'6", 135 pounds, jet black shoulder-length hair, and a decent figure, men usually flirted with her, and she had her occasional dates, but she still couldn't shake the feeling that she could look better. Her self-confidence was shaken, but she still needed men, wanted men. Just the thought of a gorgeous man aroused her. Maureen decided she needed a change, so joining an all-girl gym might help.
Fitness Today was a nice place, with helpful attendants, and excellent aerobics instructor. Brandy had made her feel comfortable on her first day, showing her around the facility, providing her with a locker, and explaining the complicated aerobics schedule. Maureen didn't know many African American women, and Brandy easily charmed her. Her body tight from years of intense aerobics, she seemed proud of her figure, and her self-confidence was evident.
Wearing a white thong leotard and black tights, she paraded throughout the gym, introducing Maureen to several other women. Maureen had thought she would feel nervous coming here for the first time, but she was very relaxed, and surprisingly confident that she had made the right choice in changing gyms. The tour lasted about ten minutes, and Brandy suggested Maureen change into her workout wear, as the intermediate class was getting ready to start. Back at the locker-room, Maureen quickly changed into her favorite leotard and tights, tied her new aerobics shoes tight, and headed for the class.
She breezed through the workout, working up a good sweat. Her mind felt clear and alive, and back in the locker room, she was surprised to see so many women heading for the large public shower. So many different girls, all sizes and shapes, stripping and happily going to shower off. Maureen decided to just pack up her clothes and shower at home. It was only a fifteen-minute drive, and she could relax and take a long hot shower alone. A quick good-bye to Brandy, and she was out the front door, waving to the receptionist as she left.
As she drove, her mind kept wandering back to Brandy. She had a perfect picture of her in her mind's eyes, seeing her in that white leotard, standing close to her. Maureen remembered staring at Brandy's chest, taking in the view of her hidden breasts, her lovely cleavage, and her faintly hard nipples. Maureen absentmindedly licked her lips, and, realizing she had done this, shook her head as if to shake that thought out of her mind. Only one more light, and then a quick left turn into her sub-division. Her hands gripped the wheel tight as she saw the light was still green, and she hoped to make it.
