Time Flys By |17|

~one year later~
you know the saying "Time Flys By when you're having fun" the part about time flying by is true. But having fun? Nah that's a lie.

I can't believe it's already been 1 year since I broke up with Carlo. 365 days since we last spoke.

I quit my job at the club shortly after I broke up with him. Although he was never at the club, I still didn't feel comfortable working in his club. And Receiving checks from him.

So now I find myself working at a less popular club. The pay here sucks, the only people that come into the club are old retired men, who stink of alcohol.
Did I mention that the men are aloud to touch us? It's disgusting but I did this to myself, if I hadn't fallen in love with Mr. Carlo, then I'd probably still have my job. But nooo, of course I always gotta ruin amazing opportunities for myself.

Yes I could get another job, like a receptionist, or a bath and body works employee, but for some reason I feel connected to dancing, like it's my destiny to get up on stage and shine. So I'm willing to work at this shitty ass place just for the love of dance

Right now I find myself driving over to the gym because I wanna change. Not to impress Carlo or anything, but i wanna impress myself.And I just wanna have a different look. So tomorrow I have a hair appointment booked cus I'm dying my hair bitches!!

after I parked my car I walked inside of the gym

Holy shit it's huge (that's what she said) actually that's what I said.... Stop

the gym is packed with "gym bros" and regular girlies.

i walk over to the receptionist desk that had a nice looking man working. I look at his name tag and see the name leo.
"hey, It's my first time here, and I'm kinda lost" I say attempting a smile

"Ohh Hey girl, no worries! can I get your name please?" He asks with a beaming smile on his face

"Anastasia Ricci" I say while silently tapping on the counter
"Okay sweetie, so the pack that you choose comes with a trainer. Do you prefer a male or female trainer?" He asks
"I'm okay with anyone" I say
"Okay here are your choices... Abel, Sarah, ally, and Austin" he says
"Uhh that's a lot of choices. I don't know who to choose! what trainer do you recommend?" I ask
"Are we going off of looks or actual athletics?" He asks getting serious
"Looks of course" I say while laughing a bit
"Okay well, Abel is taken... he's my bae., he just doesn't know it yet. But Austin, yea Gurl you look like you would fall in love with him"
" I actually just got out of a relationship so I'm just trying to work on myself in the meanwhile. But is he actually good at like helping people train or is it just his looks that are good?" I ask. I mean I did lie about just breaking up with Carlo. It happened a year ago but it feels like yesterday
"Girlllll, who the fuck would break up with your hot self? Like if I was straight i would be trying to fuck you everyday!" He says while laughing
I give him a awkward smile
"I'm kidding" he says
"Yea well, i actually broke up with him. I don't really wanna go into it right now" i say
"Aww okay babe. So back to the whole trainer thing. Yes Austin is hot as fuck, but he is also one of our top trainers. So I would suggest you choose him"he says while giving me a wink
"Okay, Austin it is" I say
"Good choice"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While waiting for Austin to come and greet me at the front of the gym I see a fine man in the distance putting his shirt back on... holy shit, the muscles, the sweat dripping down his abs. I'm in love
Suddenly this man starts to walk towards me. That can't be who I think it is
"Hi I'm Austin" he says
"H-hi I'm Anastasia" I say while stuttering because I was soooo nervous in front of this fine ass man
"I'll be your trainer for the next few months. Now, tell me are there any goals that you would like to set for yourself?" He asks while grabbing a tablet
"Yes, so I would like to lose a bit of weight , get a little bit of abs. And... just overall be healthy" I say
"Okay sounds good. Now just to let you know, you won't start seeing results until the 6th week of training. And you can't just rely on the gym to get all of your goals completed. you have to be willing to go on a diet. Ill tell you before you leave about the foods that you should be eating. Understood?" He asks while typing a bunch of things into his tablet
"Uh yes sir" I jokingly say
"Call me Austin, not sir" he says while growing a smile
"You got it boss" I say
"Follow me" he says. Of course I follow him, I look like a little lost dog next to him

"So how long have you been a trainer for?" I ask, trying to start a conversation
"About 8 years" he reply's
"Wow impressive"
"Not really" He says
"What makes you say that?" I ask
"What's there to be impressed about? I only help people lose weight. Not that big of a deal" he says
"Mmm but is. When I tell people that I have been stripping for a year and a half. People don't say "wow impressive" instead they say "your such a whore, gold digger, weirdo, broke bitch" so if I were you, I would take pride when someone says that to you" I say while continuing to follow him until we come to a stop at a private room
"Wow, impressive" he sarcastically says
"Okay well, here is my private gym where I teach all of my students" he says while turning the light on
I Walk into a modern room that has all of the fancy gym equipment that I could ever think of
"it's so nice in here" I say while admiring all of the shiny equipment
"Yea thanks" He says
"Okay so, let's get started with your running. Would you say you are a good runner?"
"No" I truthfully say
"Well today is your lucky day, cus you my dear are running for 10 minutes straight" he says with a smile on his face
"Fuck me" i say while throwing my hand to my face
"Soon baby" I hear Austin say under his breath
"What did you say?" I ask
"I didn't say anything" he protests
Maybe I'm hearing things

So I get onto the treadmill and start to run. Gosh im really out of breath but looking at his fine self i am on a cloud
This is going to be fun
