I couldn't wait to get out of the truck. The trip, under normal conditions would have taken us nearly four hours, but there had been a late winter storm that morning which had iced over the roads, making the otherwise long and boring trip perilous and even longer. We were in the sixth hour of the commute.
"This is so stupid!" I complained at a volume loud enough for me to hear myself over my Discman, which was far louder than I needed to be for my parents to hear me.
"Why would they have the Tournament here?"
"Take your headphones off if you're going to talk, Sarah. Stop yelling at us!" My mom reprimanded, in a tone that was significantly more on edge than normal. I couldn't blame her; I'd stopped counting the number of vehicles we had seen skidded off the road into the ditches, at twelve. There had been more. If it bothered my dad, he didn't show it.
I sighed and paused my CD. I was listening to '
If it Makes You Happy
' by Sheryl Crow. "We should have hosted this tournament; we live almost dead center in the middle of the State. Jesus, this place is practically across State lines, I grumbled.
"Baby, we wouldn't have enough hotel rooms for this thing, or floor space in the gym. There's gonna be over a hundred kids here this weekend," my dad explained, in his matter-of-fact way. "This city is ten times the size of home."
My sister had gotten the movie '
Dirty Dancing
' in 1989 and I watched it... a lot. My sister, who exaggerates, likes to tell people that I begged her to watch it every day that summer. As a result, now in my forties, everyone in my family is as likely to call me Baby as they are to call me Sarah; even my nieces call me Aunt Baby. My nephews don't, I think it makes them feel weird.
It was Friday, March 14th, 1997. I was an eighteen-year-old, high school senior. In the backseat of a Dodge Ram Crew Cab headed for the State Championship Powerlifting Meet.
At the time, Powerlifting was not an official women's sport, but several towns had one, sometimes two, girls that trained with the teams. Usually, we were allowed to participate at the meets if time permitted. We weren't awarded medals or trophies or anything like that, and even if there were other girls at the meet, they weren't always in the same weight class. At most we stood to win pats on the back... once or twice on the ass, or bragging rights.
There were some fringe benefits of sorts to being a female powerlifter, though. Most meets started fairly early which meant I was around a lot of beefed-up guys awash with teenage hormones. If I had a nickel for every time I was checked out by random guys at the meets back then, I would have retired on the compounded interest by now.
I know maybe I shouldn't have, but I loved it. It was one thing to feel their pervy glances, fucking me with their eyes, but several of these guys often wore Spandex singlets, and as such, I glimpsed my fair share of bulges. One of the other girls and I had joked about it before, she called it 'morning-wood' season.
I can't blame the poor guys. I was tall at 5'8", fit and perky, though thickly built on a broad frame, 36C-30-36, with golden blonde hair, blue eyes, and from what I have been told, a great smile.
It was dark before we finally arrived in town. My dad occasionally bought and sold cattle here, so he knew his way around fairly well.
We were all hungry, so we went to a steak house and ate a late dinner before we did anything else. It was fantastic; in particular, I recall they made the best, baked sweet potato I have ever eaten. I don't know what they did differently, maybe it was just my psyche celebrating life after the six-plus hours of driving down an icy road of doom, but man, it was an amazing sweet potato.
As we left the restaurant and approached the truck, my mom and I both groaned. We had had enough travel time for one day. Had it not been freezing cold we might have walked to the hotel.
"Ladies," my dad said flatly, "Its only gonna be another ten minutes to get there."
I watched the clock and a full fifteen minutes later, we pulled into the hotel parking lot. The clerk at the desk joked that we were so late, they were about to vacate our reservations. None of us laughed.
My dad had reserved two rooms, one for him and my mom and the other for me. The clerk gave us two key cards for each room, my parents each took one for their room and my mom, for some reason, took the extra key to mine. We carried our bags to our rooms, which were right next to each other.
My parents entered their rented space without issue and my mom was instantly setting up camp for the night. My keycard didn't work so my dad took it back down to the desk to get a replacement.
As I was standing at the door awkwardly holding my bags, I heard footfalls heading towards me. Assuming it was my dad I said, "Please tell me this one works!"
I looked up and saw an angel standing there; her beauty was blinding. Her hair was fine and dark brown. She had light brown skin and was only a few inches over five feet tall. She had a high, firm butt
and solid B-cup tits on a sylph frame. She was wearing a black tubetop that showed off her tight midriff and skin-tight, faded bluejeans.
In what felt like slow motion, she shot me a wide smile with deep dimples at the corners. Her most striking feature were her eyes, big and almond-shaped, but I couldn't decide if they were brown or green. Whatever their color was, they were enchanting. 'Green,' I decided.
She turned away from me and slid her keycard into the door across the hallway from mine.
"Oh wow!"
"What?" She said turning around to face me again as the door opened.
'
Oh fuck! I said that out loud,
' I screamed in my mind before sputtering out, "Uh, wow, I have been waiting for my dad come back with a new keycard for like, ever."
She smiled and nodded at me. It was then that I noticed her muscle tone, specifically her thick muscular quads. It dawned on me that she was almost certainly one of the other few girls that had been invited to participate in the State tournament.
My mom could have picked any time that night pop her head out of her door, and she chose right then.
"Sarah don't forget to wear your retainer to bed. Dr. Mesklin said that you haven't been wearing it as often as you should," my mom said, as though she had some kind of sixth-sense, animal instinct that compelled her to say the most embarrassing thing she could possibly say to me, at the most embarrassing time she could possibly say it.
"MOM! GOD!" I replied, mortified as I pictured just how red my face must have been at that moment.
Oblivious to my angst, she replied, "It's expensive, Baby... do you want the gap between your front teeth to come back?"
