Will jogged through the park as he listened to some music. It was a beautiful day and it looked like everyone in the neighborhood was out and about. About twenty minutes into his run, heavy metal music started to play through his earbuds. Mildly annoyed, he stopped and pulled out his phone. Will accidentally started the wrong playlist when he left his apartment.
Happy to have his music back on track, he turned around and was about to restart his jog when he felt something heavy smack into his side. The force knocked him off his feet and, with a sudden jolt, his head hit the dirt path beneath him.
“Are you okay?” asked a disembodied voice. Will’s vision was blurry and everything felt like it was spinning around him.
“Yeah, I’m sorry. I must have run into you,” Will responded.
“No reason to apologize, ” a male voice said reassuringly, “I found you laying on the ground alone. If you ran into someone, they must have run off.”
Will’s vision cleared and he found himself looking into the eyes of an attractive man in his early thirties. “Hey, I’m Dave. You?” the man asked with a smile.
Something stirred in Will’s chest. He smiled timidly and looked down, blushing. The tall, athletic man made Will nervous. As he looked down, he noticed that there was more than just a layer of dirt on his chest. A nylon, grey sports bra was wrapped around Will’s now C cup breasts. Still acting on his new feelings, he awkwardly attempted to brush the dirt off his chest.
“Sorry,” Will said, embarrassed.
“No, no. I’d help but, well..” the man chuckled awkwardly as he pulled his hands up briefly to help Will, but the man stopped himself when he realized he was about to rub Will’s chest. “Oh, it looks like you scraped your knee up pretty bad. Do you live around here? If you need, I have Neosporin at my apartment. It’s only a few blocks away.”
“Only If you honestly don’t mind me coming into your apartment. I really appreciate the offer.”
This time the man let out a slightly boisterous laugh. “I was trying to say that I could run there myself and bring it back for you, but yeah! If you want to join me, I can get you some water as well. You look a little rough.”
Will didn’t know if it was the blow to his head or what, but the voice that usually told him to distance himself from others wasn’t getting through to him. He put his arm around the man and he helped Will limp his way out of the park. As they walked, the smell of the man’s sweat and deodorant stirred up a new feeling inside of Will.
