Hello, I'm Jason, 24 years old, and one who just finished getting his MBA, from the University of Washington, in beautiful Seattle. Luckily, I landed a job, just weeks before graduating, starting this coming summer.
I now had the daunting task of finding an affordable place to live. If you know anything about Greater Seattle, it ain't cheap to live here.
With some help from my parents, and grandparents, I was able to find a pretty decent condo in one of the many suburbs, north and east of downtown.
Easy to commute to work, and easy to work from home, when needed.
Moving in, 3 weeks before starting work gave me time to set up my modest digs, and meet some of my neighbors. It also gave me time, when I finished setting up my place, to scout out the amenities in my complex.
Being a small complex, 24 units, we have a small, but nicely equipped weight room, plus a small pool. I began using the weights, as soon as I could.
My first afternoon in the gym, I encountered 2 guys, a bit older than me working out, and seemingly teasing an older lady, looking like she was recovering from some sort of an accident.
I am not one of those Mr Muscle type of guys, but at 5'8" and a very respectable 170, I think I can hold my own against a couple of bullies, acting like jerks.
Hearing them taunting this lady, who appeared to be in her mid to late 40's, I walked a bit closer, and asked, softly, if they didn't have something better to do.
"Fuck off, pip squeek," number 1 jerk said, with a grin. Standing a good 5 inches taller than me, and not very well built, I just looked at him, stepping between him and this lady, "I think you should apologize to this lady and then get out of here."
Laughing, jerk 1 started to put his hand on my chest, when I grabbed it, twisted it back, and threw him to the ground, landing with a dull thud. Looking up at jerk 2, I quietly said, "do you want some of this, too?"
It took about 30 seconds for both of them to head for the door, quickly.
"Hello, I'm Jason Douglas, your new neighbor"
Looking up at me, and smiling, "I'm Barb Wilson," she quietly told me. We sat talking for quite a while, with me finding out she was, in fact, 57 years of age, and a widow, losing her husband a year earlier, in an automobile accident that left her with some minor injuries.
She thanked me profusely for getting rid of those 2 jerks. "Weren't you afraid," she asked. Grinning, I told her that I happened to be a 3 time state wrestling champion, good enough to win a scholarship to wrestle at Boise State.
While we talked, I couldn't believe she was over 30 years older than I was. She didn't appear any older than mid 40's. She wasn't much taller than 5'2 or 3" at most and had a trim figure. I do have to admit, her very erect nipples poking through her bra and t-shirt caught my attention.
Over the next two weeks I helped her using some light weights and taught her how to properly use the tread mill. While showing her, we did touch, on occasion, but nothing too much. She didn't complain, and one evening, she asked why I was in the gym, and not out with girls my own age.
"Well, Barb, my girl friend from Boise, wouldn't move to Seattle, when I got accepted to grad school, and while there, I was too busy for any serious relationship."
"Jason, I'm old enough to be your mother," she said, quietly.
"Don't you want my help?" I asked, saying her age didn't bother me at all.
She looked me in the eyes, and told me how much she looked forward to my lessons. I told her I was starting work, that following Monday, but would help her, when possible.
I might add, here, that those two jerks never came back to our gym, again. I found out they lived nearby and were using the facilities without permission. That ended abruptly.
The Saturday, after my first week of work, I needed to work the kinks out of my muscles, so I really needed some exercise. As I was loosening up and doing some stretching, Barb walked in, smiling to me. "Hello, stranger," Smiling back, I blurted out "hello, beautiful."
Blushing, she looked away, mumbling, "you must need glasses, Jason."
Walking over to her, I gently brushed my lips to her forehead, saying I meant what I said. Grinning, I went back to my stretching.
I noticed she had this little smirk on her face as she started her own workout. After I finished my warmup, Barb walked over to me, taking my face in both her hands and softly kissed me on my lips.
"Oh, my," she gasped, "I hope you don't mind." Grinning, I put my hands on both her shoulders and returned the kiss, pushing my tongue inside her mouth.
