I had seen her go out for a run from the vantage point of my window many times. Because I work from home, I have always had a habit of working in front of the main window. My work often gets boring and I am easily distracted by events in my line of vision. I have acquired a habit of noticing the patterns of people's activities during the day. It becomes as familiar as the clock after a while. Some events though are more interesting than others.
There was this one woman that I started to notice. She ran by my window most days and because I am almost at street level I would always get a very good look. She had a very beautiful face with little make-up which seemed so natural and feminine that I always found my myself wanting to follow her with my gaze. I couldn't help noticing her body. It was so slender and petite. I always liked to watch as she passed by with her nicely toned legs and sweet little ass that was so evident in her running shorts. She never saw me staring at her and its a good thing too. If she had started noticing, it might have spoiled the plans I would make later.
She was rather predictable and had a certain time of day that she would normally run. I could often predict when she would appear on certain days - but not always. One day it occurred to me there was no reason not to get a closer look. It was the sort of idea I never had before. It seemed so predatory in its formulation. As if it was only natural that if I saw something I liked and I should go after it. It was as if there were two parts of me, and there was a new part that was introducing itself and was now making demands. I felt inclined to listen.
So, the next time I saw her out for her run, I quickly slipped out the door and followed along. The first time I did it, I kept thinking I must not to be too obvious about following her. I aimed to stay just close enough to be able to watch her sexy body run. It was a fine idea and it was going well and to my satisfaction until we entered the park. Something about all the trees did something to me I can't explain.
As I followed her, I realized it really turned me on to think that I was actually chasing her, and that she was trying to run away from me. It seemed to bring something out in me I had never felt before. It was a real animal lust that was pure and unadulterated. My other side was in complete control. The more I let myself pursue this idea, the closer I found myself running behind her, until I was dangerously close. The closer I got, the stronger I felt lust course through me. I felt like a pent up charge of electricity that was looking to ground itself out and would do so if it made contact with something - or someone.
I thought at one point she would certainly hear my heart beating if not my footfalls. But then I realized that she couldn't hear anything. She had some headphones on with the music blasting and was in her own little world. How had I not noticed this before? Looking in the wrong places I supposed, although her hair did conceal them fairly well.
It gave me the seed of a wicked idea that I knew would be nurtured and allowed to take shape. The realization broke my reverie. I let my pace slacken and I slowed to a stop and eventually just stood there staring at my feet. Could I really do this? A voice in my head said "oh we are so doing this".
I followed her a few more times after that from a very safe distance and discovered that the route she ran didn't vary much. It always took her down the same streets towards the park, then through the park to the far end, and then looping back to return to the same streets that brought her back home. I took a slow and deliberate walk around the route and considered the lay of the land. I saw some home construction sites up and down that route. That was promising. However the proximity to other houses made it very risky. Any commotion at all and there would be lots of attention and possible witnesses. I had to rule it out.
The park itself held more promise. There were some areas along the running trail where there were some rather large trees that had very long branches. I found one in particular that was near a bend in the path but not too close, about 30 feet off. It looked rather hollowed out on the inside but with a good canopy around it. Kids had obviously been using it as a little hiding place and I thought maybe I could too. There was just enough room to stand up inside and the ground was full of pine leaves and soft soil. I liked it. The more I thought about it, I found I really wanted the event to be in the park. In the trees - in the dirt. It had to be that way.
There was one huge problem however. This park had just too many damn people in it. She usually ran in the mornings, and occasionally in the early evening. That would never work. It would be almost impossible to enter the park, make my preparations, intercept, entertain, and exit with the necessary gear without being seen or worse. The only chance would be if she started running at night, and even that would be so risky. I had basically given up on the idea as unworkable and abandoned any more consideration of my little project. I actually felt partly relieved. I was being propelled by a force that was willing to risk a great deal. I was finally able to say no to it. But it had been exhilarating to think about.
And then, it happened. About a month later something had changed - no more morning runs. I had kept my eyes open for her thinking it was a temporary aberration but not so. The morning runs were no more. The evening runs were also not happening. I assumed that meant my daily theatre was now over. She had stopped running maybe, or moved, or who knows what had happened. I felt a real sense of a lost opportunity and was upset with myself for being so damned cautious and safe. Why could I not dare to take what I wanted and needed. It bothered me for days.
It was a pure accident that I discovered the truth of the situation. I had decided to take a late night stroll to the store for supplies one night and it was just before 10 pm. As I came around the corner, who should almost run me over but my fantasy girl in the flesh. She gave me a little smile as she glanced back at me half in apology for the near miss. Just the smallest bit of eye contact. I wondered if she noticed anything in the look on my face because in a flash, I knew that I was back on the hunt. The wolf inside me howled. I must have been grinning.
I now knew that one major hurdle had been cleared for my goal. I would have darkness for cover and fewer people around. I saw so clearly I would have one last hurdle to overcome. I must contend with any real noise that would be created in the key moments when I would pounce and bring my prey to my little hiding place. Before I had even managed to get home, I had an inspired idea. It was crazy and daring and perfect. I felt that fate was on my side and that my fantasy could now be made reality. I would not delay. The very next day was to be "The Day".
