September 2010. Tuesday 21st.
Holly awoke early. Naked. Quite unusual for her. Last night had been strange for her because of the video call with her boyfriend Mickey. They had officially started the long distance facet of their young relationship. Holly lay in bed staring up at the ceiling. The words 'long distance' didn't fill her with confidence about the future of their commitment to one another. She cast the thought aside and got out of bed abruptly. She needed a shower. The state of her pussy and thighs were a mess after her masturbation session in bed. It wasn't that it didn't feel good but she really needed to be clean enough for her morning run.
She quickly showered and changed into her tight fitting running apparel. Holly thought about putting in her ear buds and listening to music during her run but decided against it. She didn't have her running route planned out properly. Holly had looked briefly at her running app to see where other runners had achieved competitive times in the local area and decided to run to the local park. As a newly promoted detective in the Metropolitan Police she felt the need to keep herself fit and trim. The title of DCI for Holly Boston was novel and filled her with pride.
Holly checked herself in front of the full length mirror in her bedroom. She tied her hair up into a ponytail. Checked the time on her phone and headed out of her first floor flat. Once she was down on the quiet suburban street she set her running app with an easy target of five kilometres. That would take her just under twenty five minutes to run and she would be back home with enough time to shower again. Holly set off at a good pace.
She found the peace and quiet of the local park to be soothing. She only had to dodge around a couple of walkers out with their dogs. She kept up a good pace around the large park. There were several copses of trees around the edges that would provide shade from the late summer sun. As she ran along the solid path Holly became aware of another runner that seemed to be keeping pace with her. Her head turned ever so slightly so that she could catch a glimpse of the other runner some fifteen metres or so behind her. Holly wasn't aware that she had become tense when she had felt the presence of the person running along the path behind her until she noted that the runner was female. She also hadn't even noticed that she had quickened her pace until she felt the need to ease off a little. The muscles in her body relaxed and she could feel herself drawing easier breaths of air as the other runner drew closer.
The woman behind her caught up to her after a minute or so and breathed out a "Good morning!" to her as she was about to pass.
"Morning." Holly breathed back in a low voice. Both of them seemed to find a similar pace and settled into a comfortable jog. Holly cast sidelong glances at her. She was taller than Holly and the long legs of the runner made it appear that her strides were effortless and easy. Holly studied her carefully with envy.
The woman now running beside Holly seemed to notice that was being actively appraised and introduced herself. "I'm Freya. I run along here most mornings."
"Holly." was all that she offered in reply. She was even more envious now. Named after a Nordic Goddess? 'How fitting' was the thought that ran through Holly's mind. Tall. Beautiful. Athletic. Freya was everything that she admired in a woman.
After a few moments of silence Holly felt the compulsion to break it. "I just moved into the area and this is my first run around here." For some reason this brought the biggest smile Holly had ever seen a person could ever have.
"Perhaps we can run together if you are out at this time?"
She turned her head towards Freya as she ran. The idea certainly appealed to her and they slowed their pace a little so that they could converse without being out of breath. They arranged to meet at the main park gates at the same time each morning to run and if either of them wasn't there they'd run alone.
Freya was keen on having another woman running with her as she has been approached by several men in the park whilst out running alone. Holly understood instantly. Her mind flitting back instantly to the moment when DCI Chapelle gripped her breast and then proceeded to unbutton get blouse and slip his hand down inside her bra to get a better feel off her body. Freya couldn't have known that she had just triggered Holly but she noticed the look on her face and asked if she was okay. Holly shook away the thought and smiled.
