Steam Room Surprise

Boring. That's how Steven defined his life, boring. Maybe it was a factor of being 18 years old and not having a car yet, but Steven couldn't help but feel like his life just sucked some times. Sure, he had a core group of good friends he hung out with on a regular basis, mostly the weekends. He also had an after-school job busing tables at the local diner. But that had become the problem to begin with. His life had fallen into a routine of college, work and friends (wait till he gets older). Steven just felt he should be doing more with his life.

Of course, girls were a part of the "more" that Steven wanted. But he hadn't yet come into his own when it came to women. He dated a few times in high school, but it had never gotten past that awkward stage of holding hands and stealing a few kisses here and there. He thought that would change in college, but being a freshman significantly handicaps you.

So there went Steven, riding his bike down the quad and off to the main road. Steven enjoyed working out in the local gym, but not the school gym. The football players dominated the school's gym and they were less than pleasant to be around when you just wanted to do a simple routine.

Steven rode into the parking lot for the 24-hour gym just as the sun was beginning to rise. The brisk air kept Steven awake during his travels as he rode to the gym around 5 am. Steven's first class was at 7 am and he loved to get in the gym early mainly because no one else was around.

Locking up his bike Steven walked through the double glass doors and into the lobby. He waved pleasantly at the woman watching the counter who smiled politely back to him. Making his way to the locker room Steven changed into a pair of shorts and a white T-Shirt then locked away his duffel bag.

Casually walking into the main workout room Steven grinned at it's emptiness. He enjoyed not having to compete for equipment for weights and besides, who would come to the gym at 5 am on a Friday?
