Harry’s POV

Man it smells like feet. Why wouldn’t they clean up the gym a little? Disgusting. I’m doing chest and arms today and then I’m off. I’ll swim in the pool since I’m not in a jogging mood today and then I’ll rest reliving yesterday’s night moment with Val. Jesus, that sounded creepy.

As I get out of the changing room where I have left my bag I stop at my feet and I feel my mouth opening. I’m sure I’m dying. Valerie is chatting with the guy at the desk in the entrance of the gym and she is out of breath all sweaty in short black yoga pants and a blue bandeau. I can see the sweat drops in her flawless tanned skin and you can even see her abs when she bends trying to breath. She must have been running. Damn, I can’t take my eyes off of her and she is most likely going to see me. Jesus, she is hot. She nods to the clerk who is looking like a fool talking to her and she laughs when he says something to her. Then the guy bends and gives her a bottle of water. She starts to drink and I see her sweaty and sexy outline swallowing every sip of water. I might be having a heart attack.

She then looks at my direction but doesn’t see me at first. When she realizes she looks at me again and smiles widely. Jesus Christ, no one should be that pretty. She then comes almost running to me leaving the guy who was clearly trying to flirt with her looking like an idiot. I smile at that and also at the fact that she seems that excited to see me. She punches me and smiles and I honestly think there is nothing prettier than her right now.

-Hey you Hazza! What you doing here? – She asks and I laugh at her enthusiasm.

-I’m working out, Val. Call me adventurous.

She laughs and I feel so badass right now. I mean I am making the hottest girl in the gym laugh and she is talking to me other than any random bruiser. She tells me to wait for her for a second and she goes running to the front desk and smiles at the guy. What the hell is she doing? Then he gave him a towel and she thanks him touching his arm and comes back to me laughing.

-I really feel bad but I needed a towel.

She dries the sweat from her neck and chest and I have to fight with my eyes to not stare at her otherwise she will probably give me a boner. I laugh at what she has just done despite my excitement.

-I can’t believe you actually flirted with that guy to get a towel.

-And a bottle of water. – She winks at me showing me her bottle and I laugh. – So what are you working on today?

-I think chest and arms.

-I think your chest and your arms look good. – She says checking me out blatantly. – Well, to be honest you are fit entirely. – She laughs. – You can work on whatever you want. – She smiles at me drinking from her bottle.

I’m pretty sure I’m blushing and I’m sure she knows she is giving me a hard time.

-What are you doing?

She laughs probably because she has noticed I’m feeling self-conscious right now because of her.

-I actually only came to stretch. I did some yoga this morning and then I went running and did some crunches and squats. Oh, right, I’m doing something for my buttocks.

She smiles at me but I’m picturing her doing “something for her buttocks” somewhere I can see her and I’m falling apart. Holy shit, I’m doing nothing today but stare at her while she does her workout.

Eventually I’m running on the treadmill just because Val is doing her gluteus exercise right in front of it so I have full view of her working out, I’ll be honest. I am starting to think that wasn’t a good idea as I feel my arousal. She is sweating again and I am fantasising so many things while she moves her legs here and there toning up her gluteus more if that’s even possible. After twenty minutes, she goes somewhere else and I decide it’s time for me to start my workout.

I’ve been thinking about Valerie during the entire arms workout. I don’t understand why she would leave without saying goodbye. I am aware I’m making it way to important and that it is no big deal but still. I can’t get her out of my head in those yoga pants and her belly exposed. I really need to stop this.

Suddenly I look a bit further away and find Valerie stretching in a mat. She is smiling at me and for a second I allow myself to think that she has been looking at me during my workout session. I mean, why not? She has told me I was fit, but then again she was probably just messing with me as usual. I see her standing up and walking towards me.

-Hey, Harold. How is it going?

-It’s going good. I just need to finish with the chest and I’ll be done.

-And don’t you stretch?

-Just a little bit.

-What? You are stretching with me today. Stretching is as important if not more important than the rest of the workout. Jesus, you have so much to learn, little hopper.

I laugh at that and after that she helps me with my chest training adding weights to my bar as she is told. She actually obeys me, which is so unusual. Then we stretch together and it actually feels great to calm all of my muscles down. She helps me with some stretches hoping herself behind me and when my shoulder touches her bare belly I stop breathing until she put herself way from me laughing slightly. I think she has realized that I wasn’t breathing. Shit. It was a really long time so I’m a bit dizzy now but hopefully I can blame it on the workout and the stretching session. Finally, we both go to the shower and I fantasise of having a shower with her. I need to stop with this or the cold shower will be useless.

When I get out of the gym, I saw Valerie sitting on the grass with her cell phone on her hand. She smiles when she sees me.

-Jesus, you’re such a girl! What were you doing in there?

You don’t even want to know, I think to myself.

-You know just freshen up. Were you waiting for me?

-Yeah. So it seems that we are hanging out together tonight.

-Are we? – She nods smiling excited. – Great.

I smile at her and she widens her smile in response. So we are hanging out together tonight. Thanks God or whoever is behind this.
