Back home in Cali

For the rest of the trip home, Mark suffered through a variety of road trip nightmares. Pouring rain that slowed him down, a flat tyre and more cheap motels that smelt older than they were.

None of that was the worst part of his trip though. Having to tell both Tiffany and Jess that he wouldn’t be able to see them this holidays was rough.

Tiffany seemed okay with it, being very understandable but inside, Mark thought she might be disappointed. On the other hand, I don’t think Jess really thought he would actually come to Australia so she wasn’t surprised even slightly when he said he wouldn’t be able to make it.

Getting out of the car was a relief as he got home, his parents thrilled to see him back again. They had done a lot to make sure Mark would be able to get to the college he wanted. In the first few days at home, they were keen to spend every minute they could with him after being away for so long.

As nice as that was, he did want some time to himself before he would be on a flight to Hawaii.

Getting a chance to be by himself, Mark took the time to head to the local gym. He wasn’t buff or anything but he had certainly improved his body over his time on campus. His muscles were now more toned, a little bit bigger, his abs more visible.

He couldn’t help but stare as his body in the gym mirrors, admiring his progress.

After doing a few sets of shoulder presses, Mark took out his phone to see that he had a message from Winter.

Winter: Our tickets are booked! Leaving on the morning of the 24th, can’t wait to see you xoxo

The text brought a smile to his face right away, spending time with Winter in Hawaii, this was going to be great.

Mark: Can’t wait!! xx

He put his phone back, still grinning as he grabbed a hold of the weights. It was almost like a bit of extra motivation for him to continue bulking up.

In the corner of his eye, Mark noticed a busty brunette body squatting, sticking her big booty out in his general direction. He may have been ready to make a commitment to Winter but it certainly wouldn’t stop him from having a quick glance.

There was a reason why that ass was so nice, she clearly loved to work on it. The brunette continued to do her squats, she had on these tight dark blue leggings and a white sports bra that comfortably took care of those nice breasts.

Mark was trying not to get caught looking, just taking side glances every once in a while. However, it soon turned into long looks, staring right at her ass. He pushed his luck a little too far, eventually being caught. She stared right back at him which made him jump in his spot, quickly trying to divert his attention.

It was an obvious cover up which made the brown haired girl smile.

She had a mini sports bag with her that she eventually picked up and headed over to another part of the gym.

Mark felt awkward that he had been busted for perving. He barely concentrated for the rest of his time there, eventually he thought it was probably worth it just to go straight home.

On his way out, he rushed around the corner, turning blindly into someone. Their bodies crashed and the water bottle that he had opened, spilt everywhere, all over him and the person he had collided with.

“Oh my god! I’m so so sorry,” he said, noticing he had soaked them both with his water. That’s when he realised who he had run into, it was the buddy girl he had been staring at.

Her sports bra now and breasts inside now wet in the middle, drops of water down her left leg too.

“Why are you in such a rush,” she said, feeling the wetness of her sports bra.

“Ohh uhh I don’t know, I was just heading home,” he said.

She stared back at him noticing that he was trying to avoid eye contact. “What’s your name anyway,” she asked him.

“uh Mark, I’m Mark,” he told her.

“Well Mark, think you owe me for two things now, for spilling your water all over me and for checking me out for the last hour,” she said, making him turn red.

He could barely get a sentence out, surprised she had called him out just like that.

“What do you think, shout me some lunch?” she asked him.

That had escalated quickly, she was incredibly attractive and was asking him to buy her lunch. Mark felt a little awkward about it seeing that he was ready to go exclusive with Winter, prepared to make that commitment in Hawaii.

But it was just lunch, where’s the harm in that?
