"Shut the fuck up! He paid you a 30% tip? On your first go?!" Beth was waving her heavily bandaged hand through the air as she spoke. Her voice raised in astonishment.
"Yeah! I told him $150 for the inconvenience so $200 makes that about a 33% tip, I guess." I didn't tell her that the client I covered for her actually gave me $400 for the amazing massage and happy ending I gave him. "I guess I'm just a natural?" I suggested with a shrug. Also neglecting to mention the little show I did for him in the hall.
"No fuckin' shit!" She said with a laugh. "And so you just went and spent it all, huh?"
"Yes, ma'am," I said brightly as I pulled my brand new PS5 out of the GameStop bag. The new appliance smell shot through the air when I broke open the plastic wrapping on the box.
It actually hadn't taken all the money Dom gave me to put my savings over the top, so I spent a bit on some hot new jockstraps as an extra little splurge. Those were still sitting at the bottom of the bag, where I'd stuffed them, but I was going to wait till I was alone in my room to take them out and try them on.
"Well I gotta say I'm proud of you for stepping up, and doing such a good job! And so grateful again for covering for me."
"No problem," I waved my hand dismissively. "Honestly, it wasn't that hard at all. I just followed the routine like you said."
Plus a few extra moves, I thought to myself as I turned my back to hide a satisfied grin. The memory of pushing Dom's cock past the back of my throat made my mouth water and my pants tighten.
"Well I'm impressed and so happy to know you can cover a client for me here and there in a pinch."
"Oh yeah any time you need!" I said a little too eagerly.
Beth raised an eyebrow in a briefly suspicious expression. I responded by flashing her my new gaming system with a comically excited face. She rolled her eyes with a good-natured scoff before looking at the oven clock and declaring, "Well then this is cause for celebration! Let's go for a drink!"
"That sounds perfect," I said, stuffing the unopened box back in the bag and putting it in my room. "But is it even alright for you to be drinking with that cut?"
"I'll be fine. I don't have to drink too much and it's not like I'm gonna go punch somebody with my mummified hand," she replied with a sardonic scoff.
I changed into a cute tank top and ran some product through my hair to give my curls an extra bounce before checking my reflection. Was it the fresh confidence of a recent sexual encounter that flushed my cheeks? Who knows, but I felt powerful and sexy.
I opened my messages and smiled again at Dom's heart to my text. Then, I gave the mirror a little face before turning the lights out and following Beth out the door.
Beth did indeed need to get her stitches redone after drinking too much and tripping on the sidewalk on the way home.
Two days later, I was finally trying on my jockstraps from Dom. Well... not "from him," but it made them seem special to think that they were. Gifts from my first massage conquest. I'd gotten one in a dark blue color with white trim, another in a soft pink, and a third in a stark black.
I was standing in front of my mirror, wearing nothing but the black jockstrap and admiring the plumpness of my ass, when my phone buzzed twice. A text message.
I looked over at the screen and saw that it was from Dom. My pulse quickened a bit as I reached over to open it.
"Hey"
Lame opener, but I figured that wasn't all he was going to say so I closed my phone and turned back to the mirror. I fingered the smooth cloth cupping my junk. It was shiny and accentuated the high- and low-light curves of my dick and balls. My dark brown pubic hair stuck out of the top and sides, and I made a mental note to do some manscaping later.
Bzzz bzzz. I reached back for my phone.
"Thanks so much for the massage again. My back's doing a whole lot better =)"
I smiled to myself.
"I'm glad. I definitely gave you my A-game 😘"
Three dots. Then they dropped. I waited another moment and the next message buzzed in.
"It felt like it. Never had anyone... massage me so well."
"I thought it was your first massage"
A long, coy wait for his reply, before...
"Technically yes, but I'm not really talking about the physical therapy"
Bzzz.
"lol"
I blushed, remembering our little tryst. He was definitely being flirty with me now, which made my stomach flutter.
"Well," I typed out and paused. My fingers shook with adrenaline as they hovered over the keys before I steeled my nerve and finished typing. "Well your business is always welcome. I'd love to show you how beneficial a second session can be"
I hit send then closed and dropped my phone on the bed. Who was this sexual daredevil I'd become?
I took one more look in the mirror then put on my robe and headed to the bathroom. That manscaping suddenly couldn't wait. When I'd finished reducing my wild bush into a neat and tasteful tuft, I came back to my room and found 2 texts on my phone.
"I've been wondering about the same thing."
Then, some ten minutes later...
"Do you do late night appointments?"
"Late night," I read outloud to myself. I'd been about to immediately tell him I do, but then I remembered that this was not my massage business and commandeering it in this way wasn't - as they say - "ethical." I couldn't do that to Beth, to say nothing of the fact that I was also not a real masseur.
I started typing a lie, "I'm sorry, I'm actually gonna be leaving town this weekend..." and a knock came at the door.
"Mark?"
I guiltily closed my phone screen and opened the door. "Hey Beth!"
"Hey, so I wanted to give you a heads up that I'll be gone for about a month."
