I Dont Like Body Builders Ch 03

Authors note: This is not stand alone. Please read Ch 2 first.

All through dinner Max and Cindy were getting Deb's drinks, vodka and lemonade. Deb didn't drink and was unaware of the alcohol being slowly given to her. Max and Cindy both had been gently caressing Deb's bare thigh under the table and as they took turns of dancing with her, rubbed her back and sides to her hips.

They told her that Ron was playing around, she was beautiful and deserved more, they could make her happy and forget what Ron was doing. Deb's resistance with the alcohol and constant sexual caressing was getting less.

After dinner was finished and a few more slow dances Max said "Lets go up to our room and freshen up before we go to another club."

"Come on Deb, us girls could freshen up. Then off to the club." Cindy said as she put her arm around Deb's waist.

"I'm not sure I want to go anywhere else." Deb slurred.

"Come on, it'll be fun." Cindy said as she led Deb with a little force.

As the 3 of them were walking towards the lift 3 women approached them.

"Hey, Lydia and girls. How are you? What are you doing here? We're just going up to Max and Cindy's room before we go out to a club. Why don't you join us. Bet you've got a bottle of champagne haven't you Max?" Deb asked.

Max stuttered and could not talk for a few seconds as he realized Deb might escape from his and Cindy' plan for the night. "OK, just for a while then we're going to the club."

"You young girls can go up for drinks but I'm older and can't party all night like I used to. I'm going home." Lydia said.

"I'm feeling a bit strange, I think I want to go home. Lydia could you give me a lift home please?" Deb asked.

"Sure, no worries come on let's go. Good night everyone." as she walked towards the exit.

Max and Cindy's color drained out of their faces they were so close but for these bloody women. "Goodnight Deb and Lydia, come on girls let's go up to the room."

Max thought he might have luck with these dumb gym bunnies.

Deb and Lydia sat in the car listening to the radio until about 5 minutes before the two girls came out laughing.

"Your plan worked perfectly Deb, they didn't know what hit them when you walked away from them. I couldn't believe your plan when you rang me when we got home from work."

"I had to have a backup plan, I knew what they were going to try, thanks for rescuing me Haha. What happened with you girls?" Deb asked.

"We waited at the lift, Max put his arm around my waist and Cindy did the same to Mia. When the lift arrived I said to Mia that I was tired and wanted to go home."

"I agree I'm a bit tired, sorry Max and Cindy I want to go home. We will see you at the gym next week, Goodnight. As I walked away I looked back, I thought they were both going to burst into tears." Lee said laughing.

A couple of days later Max and Deb were in the office both doing accounts before the audit with the company CEO, the Franchise Manager and Head Accountant.

"I've got some accounts here from Ron and Gina's trip, I'm not sure you want to see them." Max said.

"It's OK, I trust them. Show me and I'll put them on the spreadsheet."

"Well, er, er, they cancelled one room and stayed in one room all night. They had dinner and went to a club, the last drinks charged were after 1.30 am. Did Ron mention any of this?" Max tried to sound sympathetic.

"I don't want to talk about it, just give me the receipts." Deb said.

"If you need someone to help you through this Cindy and I am here for you, just like the other night."

"Don't want to talk or do anything about it now. Wait till the management have been, then we'll work this out. Thanks for your offer." She said as she worked on the computer.

Friday morning, at the meeting was CEO, Brad Holden, Franchise Manager Harold, Harry, Ford. Friends since school mainly because or car brands as surnames. Also Bert Schultz accountant, Max, Cindy and Deb.

"Thank you all for attending today, we have a few items to be discussed." Brad Holden opened the meeting. "First is the financial report. Bert you have the floor."

"Thank you Brad, I have gone over the books and Deb pointed out some disturbing transactions. Upon our joint investigations we found some of the membership money was not going into the gym's accounts. Also, shipments of clothing were being claimed as short stock or damaged and false insurance claims."

"Interesting, how do you respond to that Max?" Brad asked.

"I paid for the franchise so you can't do anything about it." Max said confidently. "So if this bullshit meeting is over I have a gym to run."

"It's not what we want from our franchises, but let's move on to the next item. Sexual harassment with staff and clients. You would have signed a morality clause when you purchased." Brad said with authority.

"You have nothing, my word against anyone, you've got nothing." very defiantly.

"Deb, you have the floor." Brad sat back with a grin on his face.

"Thanks Mr Holden, let's start with last Saturday night at dinner, you know I don't drink but you requested the barman put vodka in my drinks. Here is a statement from the barman saying what he did thinking it was a harmless prank."

"But but..." Max tried to speak but was shut down by Brad.

"Here are the accounts you presented me saying Ron and Gina cancelled the room and went out clubbing till the early hours. I have a short video we might want to watch." Deb said as she opened her lap top and put a video on the big screen.

It was Ron and Gina sitting on a bed in the motel room, both were eating hamburgers and drinking diet soda.

"Hi babe, we're just having dinner, as you can see sweats and trackies, wish you were here. Max cancelled the other room a week ago, I have a copy of his email. We won't say anything till the time is right."

"Hi Deb, I knew I didn't like Max from that very first day. Don't worry about Ron he's safe with me Haha. See you when we get back." Gina said.

"So what, I was just saving a room charge, big deal." Max announced. Cindy had not said a word but looked very nervous.

Deb just push another clip on the laptop, it was a recorded conversation in the office with Max and Cindy.

"Don't worry we will get her soon, nearly Saturday night, but bloody Lydia and girls spoiled it. It will be worth it when we get her." Cindy's voice.

"Why do I have to share her with you? You don't share with me."

"You can have anyone of my gym guys if you want. Are you going to try guys now"

"No, of course not. I still have a couple of other women, but Deb was a real challenge that's why I wanted her." Max said laughing.

"Interesting, Max or Cindy you have been very quiet. Do you have anything to say?" Brad asked.

Cindy nodded her head in the negative.

"I have statements here from women that came here but were touched inappropriately by Max in the induction and never came back to join. Including our own Gina. They are willing to testify in court if necessary."

"I think we have more than enough evidence to enact the moral clause of the contract and we will buy your franchise back and make it a corporate site." Brad said looking at both Max and Cindy.

"No way, I'm not going to be forced into anything. You can all go to buggery, and you Deb I though we were friends and what I've done for Ron." Max said angrily.

"You and Cindy are sexual predators and women should feel safe here at the gym." Deb was fired up. "We were paying you to train Ron."

"What I'm offering is your purchase price less 10%. Quick and with no hold ups, if you resist them we will take the harassment charges and fight it out in court. We have enough money to drag it out for years and drain your money." Brad made the offer. "When the case becomes public most women will leave the gym and some of the husbands as well."

"Let Cindy and me talk it over, then we will give you an answer." a defiant Max said.

"No, it's over Max. Take the money and we'll leave here. I couldn't stand the humiliation of a court case and the embarrassment." pleaded Cindy.

"Prepare the the fucking papers and get it over with." a dejected Max agreed.

An email went out to all members with email addresses and printed notes on the coffee shop and front desk.

Special address by the CEO Friday evening at 7.00pm. If possible you are invited for coffee and light refreshments. Signed Brad Holden. ProGym.

6.30 Ron, Deb and Gina were seated and watched as people started to gather around. The night was catered for with no sight of Max or Cindy.

At exactly 7.00, Brad walked to the front of the coffee lounge and stood on a workout bench, not really OC health and safety.

"Ladies and gentlemen thank you for coming tonight. I would like to announce a few changes. Max and Cindy O'Brien are no longer involved with ProGym. I or we, the company have bought the franchise back and this is now a corporate owned gym. I am pleased to announce we have a new manager to run the everyday to day running. Mrs Deb Symonds would you come forward please." Brad announced to the cheering and yelling crowd.

"Thank you, Mr Holden. I will do my best to make this gym like it was before, well you know before. It will now for women, girls or whoever to be safe. Also for husbands to know their wife's and daughters are safe from harm."

"Now Deb you have replaced Cindy, you have to appoint someone to replace Max. Any ideas?" he said with a grin he couldn't contain.

"Well I have given this a lot of thought, but he works somewhere else full time, I will have to bribe him to leave the other job and work for ProGym. Will you babe?" she looked straight at Ron in the crowd.

A big cheer went up as he approached the front of the crowd.

"Yes of course boss." he said as her scooped up Deb and kissed her. Everyone laughed at him calling his wife boss.

"That's all of the official business for tonight, so please enjoy the spread and drinks. I look forward to the new management team." Brad finished the speeches.

Deb and Ron invited Gina out for dinner the next Saturday, they were going to shout for Gina.

"Do you mind a plus one?" Gina asked.

"No, bring your plus one, do we know who?" Deb asked.

"No wait and see." Gina said.

Ron and Deb were sitting at the dinner table waiting for Gina and the mystery guest.

Gina walked in with a guy that obviously worked out when they got closer it was Brian from the gym.

"You sly dog you, congratulations you have a wonderful girl there, make sure you keep her." Ron said as he hugged Brian. "We didn't know about the two of you."

"I agree with what Ron said, but don't upset her. Do you know what she did to Max?"

"Yes she told me." Brian said as they all sat down.

"But I wouldn't want to upset you either. You really stitched up Max and Cindy." Brian said. "How did you get all that info?"

"I put Ron's old Nokia phone in the book stand in Max's office, set it on record and the old charger so it could go for hours. I was always one step ahead. Ron and I planned everything." Deb explained.

First day on the job Deb had been sent a DVD with the upgraded accounting program, everything was now keyed into the system. From coffee to sports clothing and memberships. From now on all members would be on an emailing list.

Deb sent out the first one explaining the new management and she would like to welcome back people that had been members and had not renewed.

Incentives were offered, discount for all memberships over 12 months paid in advanced. Also off clothing and coffee etc.

Women started to come back and signed up for memberships. With them came hubby in tow. Deb ordered more spin cycles, Brad read the figures and OKed the purchases. Deb wanted to start yoga and hire a teacher. Brad said yes once again. The female side of the gym was really expanding. Deb asked for a full time female trainer and casual staff for the coffee shop. Deb suggested part time for the young girls using the gym to help pay for their membership and life in general. Deb wanted a part time hairdresser in the salon. Brad wondered what was going on, no other gym had a salon.

Brad secretly visited the gym that wasn't really going that well financially before. But now he was spending money, was it well spent or pipe dreams of Deb. When he walked in he couldn't believe the change. The coffee shop was a buzz, 2 staff and tables full with people enjoying a club atmosphere.

The gym floor was filled with people working out, some having to wait for equipment. He looked around then found Ron, instructing 3 guys at once, giving them advice and his full attention. Where's Deb?

Brad walked around and found the hair salon with women under dryers, a women in gym clothes cutting another women's hair. He went into the clothing section, there was Deb serving a couple of young girls with gym fashion. She looked up and saw Brad, when she finished the sale walked over to Brad.

"Hello Mr Holden. Pleased to see you again. Am I in trouble for asking for money all of the time?" Deb asked.

"Deb, call me Brad, you're joking, this is one of our most successful gyms, you don't have the population around you but your in the top three gyms." Max said. "How do you and Ron do it? There is a bonus coming to both of you."

"Thanks boss. I guess it's I like body builders." Deb said laughing.

The end.

To all body builders, don't get upset it's only a story. I'm 78 but still work out in my home gym. Been lifting weights for approx 62 years in commercial and now my home gym.
