Carmen drove recklessly through the rain in rush hour traffic with her car stereo blasting. She weaved through the other cars and pushed the speed more than was wise, given the conditions. "Meatloaf" and the soundtrack from "Rocky Horror" were her background music as she cursed the traffic and sang along. "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" faded into "The Time Warp" and Janet, Columbia, and Magenta wailed "Touch-a touch-a touch-a touch me, I wanna be dirty!"
Carmen was rushing from work to the University aquatics center to try and squeeze in a swim before the early closing time on Friday evening. She was exhausted from a long work week and hoped that 1600 meters of freestyle would soothe her spirit and allow her to get a decent night's sleep. As she parked in the lot, she rested her forehead on the steering wheel, sighed, and prepared to beg the lifeguard to let her swim past the official closing time.
"I'm sorry, we close at 6:30."
Carmen pouted and smiled as she gazed intently into the young man's eyes. "After everything we have been through? You won't let me swim? don't you want to be my ... personal lifeguard?" she purred.
They had not "been through" anything together, of course. Nothing other than the young man working regularly at the aquatics center where Carmen often swam.
Carmen loved to swim. It was her release from the crushing wheel of daily life. For 45 minutes to an hour, several times a week she was unburdened by gravity, legalese, taxes, work demands, insurance payments, paperwork, or social anxiety. Carmen so looked forward to gliding through the clear water of the 25-meter lap pool at the University. When she swam she felt as though she were flying. She thrilled with confident determination as her arms sliced into the water, catching and pulling, and she was propelled by the strength and agility of her whip-like kick.
Carmen stood about 5'1" with dark eyes, dark hair in a short buzz cut, and pale skin. She was curvy and athletic. Her wide hips and round ass usually got her more attention than she appreciated, but she did not mind being noticed once and a while. For the moment, she was kind of hoping the lifeguard would give her special treatment because she really wanted to get in a swim before the weekend. She figured she had a shot because the young man certainly liked staring at her when he thought she wasn't looking.
Maybe it was the joy and release Carmen gained from swimming, but she frequently seemed to lower her inhibitions when she interacted with this young man at the aquatics center in the evenings. She totally went out of her way to flirt and make small talk with him. Carmen had even been so bold as to accidentally drop things that needed picking up and stretch unnecessarily in the lobby before a workout.
The young man in question was a bit shy and ruggedly handsome. Carmen guessed he was 15 or 20 years younger than she, and he was a bit of an attractive mystery to her. He stood about 6'1," shaved head, and looked to be about 185 pounds of lean muscle. He spoke softly and slowly with a Russian accent. Usually the lifeguard appeared quite easily charmed and a little embarrassed by Carmen's shameless flirting. He smiled nervously and indulged her as she teased him. This particular Friday night it seemed that he was not to be so easily played with.
"I'm the only one here. It's late. No one is allowed in the pool without a lifeguard and there will be no one to work the desk."
He slowly rose from his desk chair, walked loudly in his flip flops to the door and locked the deadbolt. A small smile crept across Carmen's face as she watched the college boy's ass while he walked across the room. He turned off the lights in the front desk area so that only the back hallways were illuminated, creating the impression that the facility was now closed.
"Oh, come on, sugar..." she begged in a playful pout. Carmen decided to take her chances. She coquettishly sighed "I thought you liked me."
"I cannot take responsibility for your safety after hours. Anyway, my shift is over and I'm tired. I'm hungry and ... I have plans."
Carmen distinctly got the impression he might be lying about that last part.
Carmen found herself thirstily studying the lifeguard's body as he sauntered back to his desk. He wore a "muscle" tank top emblazoned with the university logo that showed off his impressive shoulders with a pair of Lycra "jammer" swim trunks that accentuated his powerful thigh muscles, and ...frankly, left very little to the imagination. Abruptly she forced herself to stop staring at the young man's cock; barely hidden by his shorts.
The lifeguard sat ungracefully in the rolling desk chair, reclining with a yawn, his legs splayed, practically inviting her to stare at his quadriceps, his abs ... and his package.
Carmen looked up at his sad and serious face.
"I'll buy you dinner," she said mischievously. "You know you are so good looking ..."
"You don't even know my name" he spoke somberly.
"Ok, Sugar, what's your name?"
He smiled hesitantly when she called him "Sugar."
"My name is Andre, ... miss...?"
"Ms. Denton. But you can call me Carmen. Come on Honey, let me go for a swim ... and you'll get to see my new bikini," she said in a lilting sing-song, wondering if she was going too far.
Oddly enough, Carmen did have a daring new bikini in her bag, but she had certainly not been planning to wear it lap-swimming at the university pool. Lap swim was generally a "one piece" situation. Carmen had bought the trashy bikini on impulse and merely had it in her bag because she liked fantasizing about wearing the outrageously slutty little thing. Carmen had not even tried it on yet. She was afraid her new friend, Andre, might insist on seeing her in this untried article of ... clothing (if you could call it that).
Andre stared at her; his curiosity piqued.
Carmen felt she had him now. She dared to fan the flame.
"I really like you Andre. Why don't you want to be nice to me?"
"Why are you teasing me?" He sounded a little sad and frustrated.
"Oh, baby, I'm not trying to tease you..." she pouted again.
"Come closer to me, then." he said softly but firmly. "If you are not teasing me, come closer and tell me again that you like me."
Andre was making her nervous now. He was telling her what to do and he was testing her boundaries. Nevertheless, Carmen cautiously took a few steps closer to Andre, her mouth slightly open as she surprised herself by following the younger man's orders.
