Thanks to Alix for great editing, to Kenjisato for a final edit to clean up the loose ends and to my consultant Qetesh.
The doorbell rang.
"Your birthday present is here," Jinx called out from the kitchen. "Answer it!"
Ethan turned off the television and slowly walked to the door. He took a breath and opened it.
Jinx had warned him, but he was still startled. Sigrid was a giant of a woman. Though only a few inches taller than him, she seemed to take up the entire doorframe.
"Hi, I'm Sigrid. You're Ethan? Pleased to meet you."
"Pleased to meet you, too. May I help you with that."
"It's not that heavy. I'm going to set it up in the usual place. Is that good?"
"Sure."
Almost before he had uttered the word, Sigrid was past him like a whirlwind. He watched as she almost sprinted up the stairs to the master bedroom carrying the folded table in one hand and a large gym bag in the other.
She was wearing loose-fitting workout shorts and T-shirt, but it was obvious she had a solid body with plenty of curves. Because her back was to him, he didn't see her breasts, but her ass was killer. It was like Jinx's -- maybe a bit bigger, but then Sigrid was a lot larger than Jinx.
Jinx came out of the kitchen, and followed Sigrid. She was dressed in yoga pants that looked a size too small for her, because every movement of her ass was accentuated as she sashayed up the stairs. He knew she was putting on a show for him, and he appreciated it.
He heard the two women conversing quietly for a few minutes upstairs, and then Jinx came back down, now wearing a jumper that covered her to the knees.
"She's ready for you," Jinx reported. "Don't keep her waiting. She has another appointment after this, so she can only be here an hour. I've got a few errands to do, but I'll be back soon after she leaves, and I want a full report."
Ethan grunted.
"I know you're nervous."
"I'm not nervous. I'm just not into massages."
"Don't start that again. You've never had a massage, so you can't like them -- or hate them. I love Sigrid. Like I told you, she's not only certified in massage, but she's also a certified personal trainer. She's great at both. Don't you like what she's done for my body? Or are you lying when you tell me how great my ass looks?"
"No. You have a great ass, and if she wasn't here, I'd rip those yoga pants off you and grab it."
"Maybe later," Jinx said. "We'll see. Enjoy the massage, but also listen to Sigrid. Since it's your first time with her, she'll probably give you tips on training and maybe nutrition. Most of all, enjoy her magic hands. I wish I was up there on the table right now."
"You can take my appointment."
"No way. You're doing this. If you don't like it, I'll never bother you again."
"All right."
"So get going. I'm not leaving until you're upstairs."
He slowly put one foot in front of the other as he walked up the stairs to show her that he was giving in reluctantly, and was only doing this for her.
****************
As he entered the bedroom, he saw Sigrid finishing her preparations. She took a white towel out of her bag and placed it neatly folded on the table, which was covered with a white sheet that had a hole in it.
"Should I close the door?" he asked.
"Is anyone else home."
"No."
"Then it's up to you. I'm ready, so you can take off your clothes and get on the table."
"Uh!"
"Oh! Sorry. I'm turning around, and you can signal me when you're ready. Lie down on your stomach and put the towel over your butt. Most of my clients are women, and none of them is bashful."
Ethan went into the bathroom and closed the door. He took his clothes off and looked at himself in the mirror. He flexed his biceps, pulled in his abs and pulled his arms back to thrust out his pectorals. Why was he worried about what she would think of him? He worked out regularly, pushing weight and running. He was proud of how he measured up to other guys.
He walked back into the bedroom. She was still standing with her back to him. He lay down on the table and moved so that his cock and balls dropped through the hole in the sheet and the hole in the table. The mat on the table was spongy but firm. He felt comfortable.
Ooops! He almost forgot. The towel was under his right leg. He reached down to get it and then spread it over him from his waist down. It went as far as the middle of his thighs.
"I'm ready," he said as he lowered his head.
She turned around, and he saw that her breasts under the T-shirt looked every bit as formidable as her ass. She was an impressive hunk of woman. Her face was nice, too. She had a great smile.
She pulled something out of her bag.
"Lift your head for a moment."
She pushed a small pillow under his head. It was firm but yielding as he lowered his head onto it. He took a deep breath. So far so good.
"Don't be alarmed," she said. "Jinx told me you wouldn't mind, but I'll warn you anyway. I give a much better massage when I'm unencumbered, so I'm taking my clothes off. You can turn your head the other way if you want, but I don't care if you look."
He looked, but he didn't see more than a flash of her naked body because as soon as she stripped, she climbed onto the table and sat on the towel over his ass.
"You may feel some things brush your skin while I'm working on you, but don't give them a thought. The only thing I'm doing intentionally will be with my hands. My massages are hands only, so you can set your mind at ease.
"I like to talk while I'm working. Did Jinx tell you? I look at your body as both a masseuse and a trainer. I'm starting with your neck and shoulders."
Ethan felt fingers digging into him. Jinx had given him shoulder massages, but nothing like this. At the same time it hurt a little bit, it also felt amazingly good. He sighed and grunted as Sigrid's fingers worked him. Jinx was right. Sigrid's hands were magic.
As she kneaded him, her commentary continued.
"Terrific traps! You're working them well. I think I could help you define them a little bit more, but you're not in competition, so all I could offer you is the satisfaction of moving you from great presence to peak profile.
"Your rear delts are also great. Not much to improve there either."
She was silent for a while as she gradually moved down his body.
"I love your lats. Keep doing what you're doing and you'll never have back problems."
