The sun was high in the sky when Fran decided to stop raking the leaves up in her garden. Her sweat soaked t-shirt stuck to her skin revealing her body to anyone who might be watching.
Autumn may be a pretty season but it sure is hard work.
She told herself as she bent to bag the last pile of leaves.
Time for a shower.
Within minutes she was leaning against the shower wall, letting the water pelt down on her naked back. Her red hair stuck to her head and chest like curling tendrils pointing the way to her hard nipples. She had her stereo on full blast and was listening to the trumpet blasts of Blood Sweat and Tears playing the intro of โSpinning Wheelโ.
The music was loud and steam filled the room so she had no chance of hearing or seeing the interloper until he was standing behind her in the shower, his hand clasped across her mouth.
โDonโt scream or turn around Fran and you wont get hurt.โ He whispers in her ear.
โOk,โ she answers with more calmness than she actually felt.
โI have admired you from afar for the longest time Fran.โ He tells her.
