When I finally got my legs to stop trembling and resembling Jell-O, I made my way back to my car and stopped off at a drive-thru. My come down from all the adrenaline had made me ravenously hungry. Once home I ate my food and then threw myself into the shower before changing into pajamas and getting under my comforter. I sat up in bed, resting against the headboard. I had gone too far tonight. In the pursuit of seeking forbidden fun I had compromised my career. I needed a shrink.

I spent hours thinking through what I’d done. The problem was that I had had an amazing experience, and the come of my life with a student, a faceless student. What if the student had pulled off my mask?

I could never do anything like that again. Not in the school. I’d taken risks with Marcus where I could have been discovered and now there was this latest reckless incident.

I realized I liked risky sex, a sense of the forbidden. It turned me the hell on. But I needed to find it outside of campus.

Garrett’s face came to mind. He was twenty-three, to my twenty-five. It hardly made me a cougar, but it was a younger guy, right? Who knew what sort of sex he liked. As a personal trainer, he would have a serious amount of stamina. It was time I stopped avoiding potential relationships and got myself back out there. I needed a regular lover, one that could take me to the heights of passion. If they didn’t fulfill me as a lover, like with Chad, then I would end it. No more Mr. Average for me. So, it was decided. I needed to date, and I would try to start with Garrett. I would ask him to train me and take it from there.

The next morning, I headed to the gym and worked out for a few hours but Garrett never arrived. I hung around the cafeteria to grab a drink, disappointed t

hat he wasn’t there. I had felt sure he would train on a Saturday morning. Then again maybe he had private clients on weekends? I took my cell from my purse and sent him a message asking if he’d train me.

A few minutes later and I had a date and time: Central Park at 10am the next morning, to meet at the entrance across from the old FAO Schwarz building.

It was time to do some pampering to make sure I looked my best. I had a man to impress.

Fidgeting, I waited for Garrett to arrive. I was dressed in black shorts and a pink tee with a small, black, fanny pack containing my car keys. It had a pocket holding a bottle of water, and I wore a band on my arm that my cell fitted in. I shuffled my feet from side to side, adrenaline battling against nerves because I did not know how this day would go.

And then he was there. Jogging towards me. He was dressed in navy-blue shorts and a pale-blue tank. As he came nearer, I watched as the muscles in his thighs and calves rippled, displaying his immense strength and I soaked through my panties immediately. How pathetic was I? I gazed at the trees in the park and imagined him pressing me up against one, fucking me so my clothes shredded against the rough bark.

“Morning, Meredith.”

“Call me, Mer.” I told him. “That’s what my friends call me. Well, when I had friends.”

“Okay. Morning, Mer. Now what are you talking about? Lovely girl like you has to have friends.”

“My best friend is now married and expecting a baby.” I told him, “So, I’m kinda not doing too well on that front at the moment.”

“Well, I’ll be your friend, so now you have me.” He smiled, a great big beam that lit his whole face and made a shiver go up my spine as his gaze stayed on me. “Now, my friend, time to warm up.”

He took me through warming up and then we went running around the park on a route Garrett had chosen for us. I thought I had a good current level of fitness but it was clear from the get go that Garrett could out pace me and leave me hanging way behind him if he did so. He gave me some tips on picking up speed and I could see he really knew his trade. By the time we had finished our session I felt it had been well worth it. My muscles and heart had experienced a serious work out.

“Shoot. How much do you charge? I hope I can afford you.” I said.

“You owe me nothing. As a friend your training is free.” Garrett replied.

“No, I don’t think so. I can’t carry on with you training me unless you tell me what your hourly rate is and let me pay you.” I stood with my hands on my hips so that he would know I was not about to be overruled.

“Okay, well today is free.” He held up a hand. “Hear me out. Today is free because it’s a trial. That’s what I do for everyone who I train. One free session in order to see if we’re a good fit. Do you think we’re a good fit?” He asked, and I felt a blush rise to my cheeks.

“Seemed to be,” I said to him, allowing myself to flirt a little.

“Great, well today you can pay me in coffee over there at The Grind,” he nodded toward the coffee shop at the corner of the park. "Then we’ll talk about future sessions and fees when we have got our breath back. Sound good?”

“Sounds great.” I replied. “Race you to the coffee shop. Last one there is a loser.” I took off before he realized what I had said but I knew he could still have beaten me if he had wanted to. Yet he finished just behind me, grabbing me by the shoulder as we reached the coffee shop to try to drag me back and get past me.

“Damn, woman, only just,” he said. His body was so near to mine. I swore I could feel the heat radiating between us. I stared up at him and he gazed down at me and something, a look, passed between us.

“What do you want to drink then?” He asked me, breaking the moment, and he headed past me into the coffee shop, leaving me salivating about his mighty fine ass that had just been in front of my eyes.

We took a seat inside. I would have preferred to sit near the window to get some fresh air but Garrett insisted on sitting at the back, stating he wanted to be out of the sunshine. The darkness towards the back of the shop seemed more intimate. It made me nervous, and I rambled on, making conversation about nothing in particular.

“I want to ask you something, Mer.” Garrett’s gaze fixed on me.

“Er, okay.”

“Would you let me take you on a date? A proper date, like to the movies or to dinner?”
