He goes for a swim (Aoi Asahina)

When Shuichi awoke the next day, he was surprised by how refreshed he felt. Despite how he always got at least eight hours of sleep every night, this was the first time in what seemed like years he felt fully awake and alert when he woke up. He didn’t have to drag his body out of bed to get dressed, and he even felt awake enough to skip his coffee before he went to work. But, perhaps most shockingly of all, at work he was able to sit up straight in his seat without much effort when he arrived at his cubicle. It was such an unusual occurrence that Shuichi’s coworkers couldn’t help but stop and gawk at the sight.

“My, it sure looks like someone took my advice about relaxing yesterday!” Makoto Naegi spoke cheerily as he walked up behind Shuichi. “So, what did you do to blow off steam? Play a video game? Go see a movie?”

“Oh, uh, nothing like that, Mr. Naegi.” Shuichi tried his best not to blush as he looked at the brown-haired man. “I just got a really good night’s sleep is all.”

“Well, whatever you had to do to get it, keep it up, alright?” Makoto encouraged.

“Er, I’ll, uh… try my best to, sir.” Shuichi turned back around in his chair and pretended to look through some papers, nowhere near brave enough to tell Makoto what he just suggested.

“Awesome! Have a good day, Shuichi!” Makoto waved as she walked back towards his side of the office. “Oh, and don’t forget to have lunch today!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t!” Despite his reassurances, Shuichi felt a very odd feeling in his gut as he spoke. So, he checked his briefcase and, sure enough, he had forgotten to actually pack a lunch that day. “Shoot. I guess maybe I shouldn’t have skipped coffee after all, since I usually make my lunch while I drink it. Oh well, I guess I can just go get something from the company cafeteria instead. Let’s see… if I only spend 1000 yen or so on lunch then I should still have plenty of money left over to hire a girl when I go-“

Shuichi suddenly stopped whispering to himself and blinked for a few moments in shock.

“Am… am I really working in hiring escorts into my daily budget? Is this… part of my life now?” Shuichi’s stomach churned as he was overcome by a sudden sense of shame. “This isn’t good… I… I can’t become a sex addict. I can’t take advantage of these poor women every night. What would my family think? My coworkers? Besides Kaito, I mean.”

His confidence slowly draining from his body, Shuichi found himself slumping in his chair once more.

“But… Mr. Naegi’s right… I still need to do something to relax.” Shuichi placed his face into his hands and leaned against his desk as he thought as hard as he could. “But what?”

Shuichi sat alone in his cubicle for several minutes trying to think of a solution, but his mind kept drawing a blank. He wasn’t good at video games, he didn’t particularly like sports, and picking up a quiet hobby like shipbuilding or knitting would just remind him too much of his job. Eventually, he just gave up and turned on his computer and opened his internet browser, where he was greeted to an ad for a nearby gym.

“A free one-month gym membership?” he whispered to himself. “Hmm…”

A few hours later and the boy found himself standing at the entrance to the gym, his suit and tie left at home and replaced with a dark grey tracksuit.

“Wow, this place is big,” the office worker said to himself as he walked in, a small gym bag underneath his arm. “And there’s so much to do. I guess I should find something to get started with then.”

The first thing he went for was the weight rack, his hands wrapping tightly around the 100-kilogram dumbbells before pulling upwards with all his strength. Then, after he nursed his sore wrists and made sure he hadn’t pulled anything, Shuichi moved down to the 50-kilogram weights instead. Then, when he couldn’t lift those either, he moved to the 5-kilgram weights instead.

“Aaah! That’s it… feel the… ah… burn!” Shuichi grunted to himself as he did curls with the weights, moving one and then the other as he put his arm muscles to the test. After a few minutes of this, though, it felt like his biceps were on fire and he was practically gasping for breath. “Okay… that’s enough burning for now! Ah!” Shuichi put the weights back where he found them and placed his hands on his knees, barely able to stop himself from collapsing.

“Okay, maybe I should stay away from the weights for a while…” Shuichi thought to himself as he wiped the sweat that had been gathering on his forehead. “I should try something more aerobic… maybe running?” Shuichi turned towards the treadmills and saw that they were all full. “No, that’s out of the question. What about swimming?” Shuichi walked over to the pull and saw that there were still several open swim lanes. “Perfect! It’s a good thing I thought to bring my swimsuit.”

“Although, I probably should have thought about the last time I wore this thing too.” After his shower in the locker room, Shuichi almost had to waddle out into the pool area. He hadn’t gone swimming since he was an adolescent, so his black swim trunks proved to be uncomfortably tight on his body. He thought, or at least hoped, that he could still swim in them, but he was definitely buying a new pair the next chance he had. “Well, it’s too late to turn back now. Time to see if I sink or swim.”

Shuichi began to make his way towards the water’s edge but stopped when something in the water caught his eye. At first, he thought that it was just a reflection on the surface because it moved so fast, but a closer look revealed that wasn’t the case. Instead, it was a person – a woman to be precise – who was swimming back and forth through her swimming lane faster than the boy even knew was possible. She was moving so quickly through the water that it was hard to get a good look at her, but she didn’t stay swimming for that much longer. As she pulled herself up out of the water in front of Shuichi, he finally managed to get a good look at her.

The woman was slightly shorter than Shuichi and had smooth, naturally brown skin and long brunette hair tied back into a functional ponytail that wouldn’t get in the way when she swam. She was wearing a blue one-piece swimsuit with turquoise highlights, but it clung so tightly to her skin that to Shuichi she may as well have been naked. He could clearly see all her toned muscles, each of them smooth and powerful and practically built for moving through water. The closer the woman got to him on her way towards the women’s locker rooms, the more it seemed to Shuichi that she didn’t have a single gram of fat on her entire body, with two obvious exceptions; her breasts. The woman’s tits were the largest he had ever seen outside of a porn site, each easily the size of a large melon. They were so big and bulbous that Shuichi could actually hear them bounce when she began to walk past him – though that bouncing came to a sudden stop when the girl stopped walking and turned back to face him.

It was at that point that Shuichi finally realized just how shamelessly he’d been leering at this stranger.

“Dammit!” Shuichi swore in his head as the woman walked over to him. “It’s been less then twenty-four hours since I last had sex, and I already can’t control myself!? She’s probably going to get me banned from the gym now. Maybe picking up model trains isn’t such a bad idea after all…”

If Shuichi had been brave enough to look the woman in the eye as she approached, however, he would have noticed that her expression wasn’t angry in the slightest. If anything, she had an air of friendliness about her.

“Hello there! I take it you liked what you saw in the pool?” she asked, the glistening water still on her body emphasizing her curves even more underneath the pool’s lights.

“Uh… yes, I did,” Shuichi replied, unsure exactly what to say. “I can tell that you’re… very good at taking care of your body.”

“Why thank you!” The dark-skinned girl smiled at the compliment. “I have to take care of it if I want to keep swimming, though. I’m not even sure if I’d be able to go on living if I couldn’t do that. Like, imagine what it would be like if you could never have sex again.”

“That, uh, wouldn’t be very fun at all,” Shuichi admitted as the blush on his face grew even more substantial.

“Well, for me, it would be like that but ten times worse!” The woman said with conviction before her gaze suddenly shifted downwards. “Oh my! Speaking of sex, it looks like you’ve really got that subject on the mind right now.”

Shuichi looked down as well and saw that there was a reason his swimsuit suddenly felt a whole lot tighter; he was now sporting an erection so large that it literally formed a tent in his swim trunks. Gasping, the boy tried his best to hide it with his hands but the small size of swimsuit made that task just about impossible.

“I-I’m so sorry, miss! I didn’t mean for that to happen!” Shuichi swiftly apologized. “I’ll, uh, just leave you alone now!”

“Oh, relax! I’m not offended or anything! In fact, it’s kinda cool to know that you see my body as that attractive,” the girl said casually before Shuichi could turn away. “It is rather nice to look at, isn’t it? So smooth and fit… I bet you just want to reach out and touch it, don’t you? Well, you can… for the right price~”

“Wait, you mean you’re a…?” Shuchi swallowed deeply.

“Yep, I am.” The girl crossed her arms underneath her chest and gave Shuichi a proud smile. “Today was supposed to be my day off, but I was just about to head off anyways. So, I figure why not leave with a cute and generous boy while I’m at it?” The girl stepped closer and moved har arms upwards a little, bringing her breasts even closer to Shuichi’s face in the process. “So, what do you say? Care to get your exercise for today another way?”

Shuichi hesitated as he told himself that he shouldn’t. That he came here to get his mind off sex, not to get laid with another gorgeous stranger. If he didn’t put his foot down now, there was no way he was ever going to stop.

“Yes… I’d like that,” Shuichi eventually replied, the words leaving his mouth despite what his super ego was screaming at him.

“Ooooh, thank you so much!” The woman’s eyes lit up with excitement as she pulled Shuichi into a sudden hug, causing her breasts to press hard against his chest while his cock rubbed against her legs through his swimsuit. To his shock, her tits felt even softer than he imagined. “Trust me, you’re not going to regret this! I need to shower off all this chlorine first, though, so I’ll meet you in the lobby in ten minutes, okay?”

Shuichi nodded before finally parting ways with the escort’s body, allowing them both to return to their respective locker rooms. Shuichi quickly realized that his erection made walking in his swim trunks even more difficult, so he dried himself and changed back into his clothes as quickly as possible. Then, he sat nervously in the lobby of the gym for the dark-skinned swimmer to make her appearance. As he waited, he honestly was not sure of which possibility that he was more afraid of; that she might ditch him, or that she might not.
