Day 1
Jackson and his roommate Wesley laced up for their afternoon run just like they had since the beginning of the summer semester. These offseason afternoon runs helped keep their muscles loose and ready for their morning training with the track team. It was also a way to relax and enjoy a run without their coach watching over them. They stepped out of their apartment and into the warm summer air.
"I've got a new route for us to try. I'm not sure where it goes, but once we hit 2 miles we'll turn around and head back." Jackson said.
"Great" Wesley responded while loosening up.
This would happen every week or two. Jackson would get the itch to try something new and find a new route for them to run. There were plenty of options around campus, but this being the summer between their junior and senior year, they had tried almost everything.
"Follow me" Jackson said with a smile.
"Oh brother...I know that look, are we going 'off-roading' again"?
"You'll see"
They ran for about a half mile then Jackson said "There is a small path on the left".
"In the woods? I knew it." Wesley said, shaking his head.
Wesley followed Jackson onto the path. It was overgrown and narrow with plenty of branches to jump over. Wesley fell back a few yards from Jackson so he would be able to see any obstacles before it was too late to avoid them. Soon they were surrounded by woods with no campus buildings or roads in site. It was cooler in the shade but still warm and they were working up a good sweat. After about a mile, Wesley called ahead to Jackson "maybe we should have brought some bread to leave a trail so we can find our way back. Let me know if you see a clearing and house made of candy with a witch inside."
"Very funny" Jackson said. He looked at his GPS watch and saw that they were a mile and a half into their run. "Just another half mile and we'll turn around. Don't worry Gretel, I'll get you home"
Wesley just smiled and shook his head as they worked their way up a small hill. A minute later as Jackson made it to the top of the hill, he slowed down and said "Well...it's no house made of candy, but it looks like there is a house up ahead on the right."
Wesley slowed down and as he made it to the top of the hill he looked ahead to the right. There was the backyard of a large house with a pool and a fence around it. Jackson had stopped and Wesley stopped next to him.
"I wouldn't mind jumping in that pool right now." Wesley said.
"No kidding...although it looks like there is someone there. Don't think they want two sweaty college guys jumping into their pool. Come on, we are almost at 2 miles, let's finish up and head back."
They started to jog again, focusing on the trail ahead to avoid tripping or spraining an ankle on any random branches or rocks on the path. The path was leading them to the fenced backyard of the house and then veered off to the left again up another hill. As they passed the house they both noticed that there was indeed someone laying out near the pool, but being focused on the trail neither got a good look. As they got halfway up the hill leading away from the backyard Jackson's watch buzzed indicating that they had hit 2 miles. Jackson slowed down and turned around to start back. Wesley seeing that he had stopped slowed down and looked up. His roommate was standing still staring in the direction of the house with a grin on his face.
"What's up?" Wesley asked turning around to see what Jackson was looking at. "Holy shit, is she naked?"
"I think so." Jackson responded without taking his eyes off the woman lying on a lounge chair next to the pool.
They were about a hundred yards away and looking down at the pool, so it was hard to tell, but they were both pretty sure that the woman was not wearing anything. If she was, it wasn't much.
"Let's take our time on the way back and get a better look...but let's not get caught staring." Wesley said.
They started back slowly, with Wesley in the lead this time. As they came down the hill and neared the backyard, they were able to clearly see that sunglasses was the only thing the woman by the pool was wearing. The lounge chair was parallel to the path with it's back slightly inclined. It looked as though she might be asleep, but they couldn't be certain. As they passed by the house and made their way back up the hill they kept a steady pace and kept their eyes on the path, doing their best to exercise some restraint. When they crested the hill and were out of site, Wesley slowed to a walk. Jackson was quickly beside him.
"You're welcome" Jackson said.
"You are taking credit for us seeing a beautiful naked girl on our run?"
"Who picked this route?" Jackson shot back with a smile.
"Good point...damn, did you see her body? I only got a quick look but that was phenomenal!"
"No shit man, straight out of the swimsuit issue...minus the swimsuit."
"I think this might have to become our regular route." Wesley said as he started to jog again.
"No kidding."
Back at the pool, Kendra smiled as soon as the guys were out of sight. Her nipples were hard and she could feel herself getting wet from the thrill of being seen. She hadn't seen anyone on that trail in the three years she had lived in the house. She wondered if they would be back tomorrow as her hand made its way between her legs and slid in between her wetness. She hoped they would.
Day 2
Wesley and Jackson struggled to stay focused during their morning training with the team. Neither one of them mentioned what they seen to the rest of the team. The last thing they needed was a bunch of horny guys running by the house every day hoping for a peak.
After training they both showered and headed to their classes. The day seemed to last an eternity. Once out of class they met back at their apartment to grab a quick snack and get ready for their afternoon run.
"Think she'll be there today?" Jackson asked as he tied his shoes.
"I sure hope so. I have been thinking about her all day...I have no idea what was discussed in class today." Wesley said laughing.
"No kidding...let's just hope her husband or boyfriend isn't there waiting for us with a shotgun."
They walked out of their apartment and started on their run.
