It was a decent enough explanation given by him; that he didn't want to ruin his top by the time they get to the gym. Though, she sure didn't appreciate the attention she'd get from neighbors, not that she cared much for them, it's just people staring at them. Perhaps it's a bit uneasy for her because it's new for her. However, she did approve of him jogging shirtless with her, finishing her stretching without realizing that he managed to check her out, including her pert breasts, without her knowing. She wasn't sweating as much as she should be and the reason being was that she usually likes to keep cool, not overdo it. She wouldn't even need to go to the gym to maintain her petite frame because in college, she never did. Her metabolism was always working fast.<br/><br/>How can she not make a point to check him out, the top less hunk. Dedication should always be appreciated. Eventually, they were jogging and before they knew, they were around the blocks on which people didn't really know who she was, who they were. Jogging more at ease, she didn't feel the need to keep up with him. This wasn't a competition and so, she kept her usual pace. She'd simply ask him to jog faster if he wanted to, not wanting him to slow down for her, and meet up with him at the gym. She didn't want to tire out by the evening time, as she does keep herself busy with chores to pass the time on day to day basis.<br/><br/>When they approached the intersection, she came to a pause as he stood half a step ahead of her, not making that into anything as they would continue on with their jog to the Muscle Hut after replying to his comment. She smiled softly and added as she gestured to dust off her shoulders,<strong>”The thing is...”</strong>[/b] She took a step ahead of him, placing her hand on his shoulder as if she was speaking to her friend as she had a different air about her in that moment,<strong>”...I don't want you to feel bad. Because you would lose if we were to compete. You wouldn't want to lose to a girl, would you now?”</strong>[/b] She patted his sweaty shoulder before continuing, wiping his sweat onto the towel as it was obvious that she wasn't disgusted by it. She did jog ahead of him for a moment, passing a wicked smile at him, almost a teasing gesture.<br/><br/>A jogging and work out buddy was exactly what she needed. Not because she lacked motivation but it's always good to have someone around, encouraging one another. According to her, one shouldn't be doing things alone when doing one of the few things; eating at some place other than home, working out and watching a movie in a theater. She didn't say this to him but asking him his schedule would indicate the acceptance of his company by her. She wanted to know the times they'd work out so it was a general question from her end and when he answered, she made a thoughtful face. Biting on it for a few moments, she glanced up at him,<strong>”I do love me some salad.”</strong><br/><br/><strong>”I don't think I want to work out everyday. Three or four times a week is plenty for him. And a small jog around the neighborhood on the days I don't go to the gym. Let me give this some thought. I am sure we will work it out. Apart from the fact that you want me to wake up an hour early for you. We may have to bargain it out...say 8:30?”</strong>She smiled, jogging to the outside of the park and onto the blocks, not too far away from the gym. Eventually, they reached an intersection and she noticed him shield her. She thought it was cute. She wasn't irritated by it but she couldn't just let it pass and not joke about it. Once he took his hand down, gesturing that they were good to cross the intersection, she didn't move quickly. Instead, she smiled,<strong>”Is it safe to cross now?”</strong>she said and walked slowly across the road, to irritate him a bit.<br/><br/><strong>”You know, I am a big girl and can safely cross on my own.”</strong>Continuing their jog for a short while before they arrived in front of the gym as she watched him pull out a tee and put it on. She had something to add but bit down on it, not wanting to tease him too much to make him run away. Though, when he told her that he wanted to see how much she can lift, she puffed her left arm, showing him her muscle. She wasn't muscular at all, maybe a little but just perfect for her perfect frame. Bottom line, she wouldn't want to gain a pound or lose a pound nor put on any muscles on her.<strong>”To answer your question, I think I can lift just about enough. Come on now...Mr. Trainer. Shall we go in and begin?”</strong>She said and nudged her head towards the entrance. Upon entering, at the desk, she punched in her code and a cute picture came up on the screen.<strong>”I am sure you must have gotten the tour already so you lead the way. Today, we will work out according to your routine.”</strong>She said and took a back seat for now.<br/>
