First Real Alpha Man Pt 01
I was on a working holiday having decided to leave my ordinary job and travel to the island of Jersey in the Channel Isles for a few summer months. It was a very hot summer and I wasn't use to the heat and quickly got sunburn. After a short stay in a camp site I decided I needed to get a job as my money wouldn't last me for very long. I went to the local town job centre to find a lot of poorly paid jobs with long hours working in mainly hotels.
I found a job working in the kitchens of a large hotel where I had to work 7 days a week for 2 hours in the morning, dinner and evening meal times with breaks in between. That gave me lots of time in the afternoons to sit on the beach, read and go swimming when it wasn't so hot.
It must have been in the second week that I'd been working when I went to the beach in the afternoon and decided to go for a swim in a large enclosed pool. The pool was full of sea water that remained when the tide went out so I thought it was safe with no currents or depth to worry about. I wasn't a good swimmer and tended to always to stay close to the edge of the pool.
The beach was quiet as I stripped off to my trunks and exposed my white body to a dull sun trying to break through the clouds. It was very humid though and I sweated as I walked with my towel to the waters edge. The water looked cool and inviting but it looked a bit choppy which surprised me as the tide had gone out.
I put my legs over the side of the pool wall and the water was cold. I splashed myself all over my body and it felt great and relaxing as it cooled me down. I looked out on the pool which was larger than 2 or more football pitches. I saw only an old couple swimming in the distance and one man at least a hundred yards away.
When I decided to lever myself into the pool bit by bit I felt the cold water rush over me giving me goose bumps and a chill up my spine. I held onto the side of the wall and kicked my legs out before turning to begin swimming towards the middle of the pool. It was refreshing to have the cold water surrounding my body as I slowly crawled towards the centre of the pool. When I got there I turned to go back to where I left my towel but I felt an undercurrent pulling at my legs and feet. I sort of panicked and started to use my arms more quickly to get back to the wall. The water was choppy and it was difficult not to stop the sea water going into my nose and mouth.
Then before I knew it a man's long arm held me up and guided me back to the wall. I was breathing heavily and couldn't muster the energy to pull myself out of the pool. The man got out of the water and took my hand and pulled me up to sit alongside him. He asked me if I was okay and I said just about but I felt stupid and thanked him for helping me.
I noticed he was very hairy and had tanned skinned. Most of all I noticed his large bulge in his blue speedos as and when he pulled me out of the water. I must have look weak and weedy compared to him but he was very kind and invited me to go back to his apartment to clean up and get a drink. I wasn' t sure at first but he insisted.
On the way to his place he introduced himself as Tony and he said he lived above the restaurant he was working at as the house manager. He asked me questions about why I was in Jersey and I told him it was a summer season job until September. He knew the hotel manager I worked at but didn't like him much.
Tony was in his late 30's, medium height like myself, but quite stocky build and of Italian descent. He also told me he'd been married with two children but had separated last year.
His apartment was only two streets from the beach so we soon got there and he insisted I showered while he made me a warm drink. I went into the bathroom and stripped off and got into the shower to run some nice warm water and wash off the sea water and sand.
