Warm-up Routine

"You caught me

I have no idea what it stands for

I havent even heard of the word up until now

I am not that much of a fan of swimming.....

Of any sport to be straight with you but I figured it has something to do with a swimming competition so I tried my luck"

I painfully sighed admitting the truth"

There is always a first time to learn something new so lets get you all geeked out

INST stands for International Swimming Tournament and it is divided into two..."

"I knew it was the T

I was not all too sure about that but I got the rest so I was not totally wrong

75% should do just fine right"

I said with a huge smile on my face

"Samantha!!!"

"Okay fine

70%

But I am not going any lower than that

I got 3/4 so that should count for something right"

I turned to him with a confident and determined look

"This is not a test Fireball

Score yourself 100% for all I care

I just need you to get familiar with our world that it" He said nonchalantly

"Score myself

That has to be a joke right?

It is unethical for one to….."

"Damn it!!!

I have never met anyone who will get angry over no evaluation

But if you want more work then why not

Before our next practice read everything you can find on the INST

How many sections, Our rules, Requirements and the rest

Now can we start?"

He said looking a bit annoyed

"Arrgh

Sure fine

Lets start?

You are going to begin with a 20 minutes warm-up"

I said going through the journal

"You are kidding right?"

He asked all surprised

"Should I be?

Because it says here that you are to stretch out for at least 20-25 minutes before you start"

I said shuffling through the pages to see if I missed out on anything

"You are actually serious!!

There is no way I am stretching for 20 minutes

In case you haven't noticed we have spent close to 25 minutes getting you up to speed

I should have started my second lap by now

The school security closes the school by 6

My muscles are all stretched out by now

So why don't you just sit your cute ass over there and get ready"

He said while I juststared at him realizing that this was the longest sentence he has ever said to me

"That is not how this is going to work at all

I might not fully know what I am doing but there is no way in hell I am just going sit down and do nothing

You wanted me to do personal trainer right?

You got it

And we are suing things my way so here is what is going to happen

You are going to stretch those muscles for 15 minutes and only after then will I monitor your race so now it is all to to you"

I said placing the journal on the seat beside me, removed the whistle from my neck then started playing with it knowing too well it will piss him off

"You win

Now stop playing with that damn thing

I had no idea you can turn a simple whistle into a torture tool until I heard you

Pick up your timer and lets get to work"

He grumblingly said coming down from the starting pad 

"I was about to move into the chorus but for you dear I will do anything

15 minutes just for today then we will go back to the right minutes"

I said trying my hardest not to show how happy I was

"Sure anything you say and before I forget look up on all the approved standard exercise routine before our next practice and you also suck at acting I know what you did back there

Can we please start already?"

"Aye Aye Aye captain

Your time starts now"

I said starting the timer, Two minutes into his routine and I almost fell down from my chair my eyes slowly followed his every movement watching him flex his muscles as he stretched out"

"Damn!!"

I unconsciously said out loud trying to look away

"Is there a problem..

Hello..

Come on

Earth to Sam…."

A damp cloth landed on my face dragging me back to reality

"Sorry?"

I asked while removing his wet shirt from my hair

"You have the attention span of a 3 Years old child

I do not even want to know where the hell you keep zoning out too

But can you try to stay focused?"

He asked

"3 Years seems like a very definite number what made you pick it and if you throw your wet shirt on me again I will shred it into a million pieces"

"This is definitely going to be problem

How many minutes have I used up?"

He asked looking very frustrated

"Let me see

It should be around 9min..

4 minutes!!!!!

Are you kidding me it felt like forever"

I  said completely shocked

"Sorry if my exercise is boring you to death but you are going to have to get used to it

You do remember that the standard time is 20/25 minutes?"

He asked

"25 minutes in..

Sorry what I meant to say is you are right,

I will just have to get used to watching you stretch out those muscles every day for the next few..."

"I have adjusted the timer to 10 minutes

That will do for today"

He said handing me back the timer

"Your wish is my command

I said starting the timer for the second time while focusing solely on ticking of the watch

"You can do this girl

Just dont let your eyes linger down and you will be fine

Breathe in, breathe out

Breathe in, breathe out"

I said to myself while practicing the breathing technique with my eyes still glues to the timer 

Why does it feel like this timer is a bit slow?

Show me a little mercy here universe

"I am really trying

I am in deep shit

How the hell am I going to survive the next few months if I can't even last 10 minutes"

I said nervously tapping my laps

"Seriously you need to snap out of it Sam

What is even that special about his body I have seen more attractive men in less

So this shouldn't be any different"

I angrily said to myself

"I was just surprised the first time and that will explained the blacking out but now that I am more prepared this should go a lot smoothly

All I have to is just have a quick glance and get it over with

I can't possible train a man if my eye stays only on his face and this timer

Time to rip the bandage of the wound then"

I said slowly lowering my gaze from his face down to his neck, then to his chest slowly moving down to his perfectly shaped abs then just as I was about entering the lower body the timer in the hands rang and it felt like a cold bucket of water dropped on me bringing me back to the present

"Welcome back Fireball"

He said with a big smirk on his face cleaning his face with the small towel on his neck

"Welcome back?

I didnt go anywhere?"

I asked totally confused

"You did not have to go anyway your eyes did the job for you

Honestly speaking I felt a bit molested back then"

He said me with a full smirk on his face making me more confused and getting pissed by the minute

"Molested!

Are you kidding me"

I snapped

"I could feel the heat oozing from your stare

Touch me if you dont believe me I am over the normal"

He said moving to me

"You really are full of it aren't you

The only reason I was staring was to get familiar with your routine so get off your high horse and lets gets back to work"

I said spurting out the only lie I could think of

"Nice try but I dont believe you

I was almost certain you will not hear the timer ring but you were just lucky"

He said eying me with disbelief

"Please

You can't just get over the fact that I am not the even a tiny bit affected by you

This must be a new felling for you but dont worries give it a few days and you will be fine"

I said with a giant smile on my face mostly impressed with myself for the smooth save

"You can continue lying to yourself fireball but that doesnt mean it is the truth

We both know that and that is all that matters

Turn the journal to the next page

It time to start with the real training".
