This is the first of a multi-chapter story.
.................................................................................
In high school, I was a good student but my love was everything about SPORTS! I liked track & field, tennis, swimming, and baseball. However, my favorite by far was basketball. My growth spurt started relatively early, and for 2 years, I was the tallest guy in my class. It gave me an advantage playing basketball, and I excelled, scoring almost always more than 20 points per game. My love of basketball remained even when my classmates began catching up with my height.
Since turning 18, I had 3 serious girlfriends. Each lasting 8 months to 3 years. My criteria for going out with a girl included the usual parameters - having a pretty face, an attractive body, a nice personality, and a decent brain. She couldn't be a minor and needed to like and participate in sports activities.
About 2 years ago, I met my latest girlfriend, Lara. It was love at first sight. A 25 year tall beauty of 5'8" and 140 pounds. Her figure was to die for - D-cup tits, a narrow waist, and perfect hips that ended in long shapely legs. Yes, I was attracted to her from the moment I laid eyes on her; what made it even better was the place where I met her. It was in a basketball between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Chicago Bulls.
A breathtaking beauty who likes basketball - What could be better? She sat in front of me with another girl and an older guy, whom I assumed was her father. At one point the Bucks scored a great basket from long distance and the crowd went berserk. Lara started dancing and turned around. Our eyes met.
I smiled at her and said, "Gee, this was awesome, wasn't it?" It wasn't the best opening line, but I didn't have time to think of a better one.
She chuckled, "Yes. It was amazing."
I don't know what made me say it, but I mumbled, "Lady, you are the prettiest thing I've ever seen in my life."
She grinned, "I assume you meant it as a compliment, but no girl likes to hear she is a 'thing.' Please rephrase..."
I bowed, "Sorry. I should have known better. Would you please accept my apology and, as a token of goodwill, join me for an afternoon coffee?"
She stared at me for a long time, exploring my face and body, then blurted, "I am not sure about it. Give me your phone number, and I'll think about it."
I didn't hear from her for almost a week and was sure she wasn't interested. Lara called me sometime later, "Hi stranger. I debated whether to call you or not. I checked on you on social media sites and later talked to a girl you'll recognize, Tania. She said she knew you from work, and she highly recommended you. Anyway, my name is Lara. If your offer is still open, I'll accept."
"Lara, my name is Gerry, with a G. I am happy you agreed. When and where would you like to meet?"
"How about tomorrow at 5:30 pm at Starbucks on Broadway?"
"I'll meet you there. And remind me to pay Tania her usual fee for recommending me..."
Her laugh was very pleasant. She said, "See you." And then she hung up.
The following afternoon, I arrived slightly earlier and was fortunate to find an empty table for two near the large window looking down the street. I waited for Lara. She arrived several minutes late and looked fantastic. Her long hair was loose and she wore a short light blue dress that emphasized her long legs. Her breasts filled the upper part of her dress, displaying a nice cleavage.
I extended my hand and said, "Hi again Lara. Let's order first, and then we can talk. To cut it short, our first meeting went very well. We discussed our professions (She was a tech in a laboratory and I was a junior engineer in a large firm), movies, travel, and... basketball.
We clicked immediately, and time passed fast. We started dating, and on the 3rd date, we had our first sexual encounter. We were young and adventurous, and within 6 months, we were doing it in every position and multiple places. Sex continued to be the highlight of our relationship for the next year.
Lately, our intimate encounters have become less adventurous, probably because we have tried everything already, and it has turned into a routine activity.
