After several weeks of tireless meetings and hustling to finalize everything for the new project launch, I was extremely excited for a few days the spa resort. I had been with girlfriends before and loved it every time, but this time I needed my time, no phone, no one knowing where I am, just me escaping to enjoy, have an occasional drink and get ready for the next project.
When I started my consulting career I never imagined I would be living this life, weeks and months of insanity followed by a recharge and back into it again, it had set me up for everything I could imagine, but my relationships suffered because of it, during those times I just needed to focus, balance wasn't my strength.
The drive out there was spectacular, the rolling hills and lake view always set me at ease. I pulled into the parking lot, the valet grabbed my keys and I headed inside to begin my 3 days of bliss. I made my way to the pool, grabbed my a book I had been trying to read for months and set about finishing it in the afternoon.
As was usual in this particular spa resort, it was a serious mix of beauty, being the man I am, I couldn't help but occasionally admire the beauty in front of me, unfortunately, it was also quite coupled, it was the occasional bachelorette party that really made things entertaining. After a few hours of exploring the spa, I settled myself into the pool deck chairs, pulled out my book and began to get into it. I dropped my book on my face a couple of times as I was close to falling asleep, apparently, my body needed this more than I thought.
I was half asleep, re-reading the same page again when she caught my eye, she walked through the doors onto the pool deck opposite of me and I was nearly certain I had seen her. I looked over and thought it was her but I couldn't be sure, what was she doing there? Who was she with? My mind started to spin thinking about it all.
I went back to reading and trying to get a better look at her but could never catch a good sight to be sure... I kept returning to my book but every time I read a sentence I couldn't even remember what I had first read, my mind was elsewhere.
I got up to get a better look out of curiosity, went for a quick swim and as I got closer saw her stand up to leave, I was so disappointed and still unsure if it was her, as she opened the door to go inside, she turned towards me, made direct eye contact and winked, giving me a little nod to follow her inside as she snuck away.
My heart started racing as I processed what was happening, nothing made sense, nothing was clear, it seemed so seductive, so casual and confident. I was afraid to stand up out of the pool with my immediate erection almost certainly showing through my shorts.
