closed starter for @romantiicas where: asena's spin class
āĀ you have to promise to go easy on me.Ā ā water bottle in hand with a towel slung over her shoulder, nelle was the picture of trepidation as she walked into the spin studio. one too many excuses had given way to, well, her worst nightmare. yoga was the closest she had ever gotten to group fitness, and even then, she preferred the solitude of an early-morning run. she saw asena's victims passing by the gallery sometimes, faces flushed and drenched with sweat, and envy was the farthest thought from her mind. but, she had given her word to try. āĀ so... do i pick any bike?Ā ā
asenaĀ litĀ upĀ theĀ secondĀ sheĀ spottedĀ nelleĀ hoveringĀ inĀ theĀ doorway.Ā āeasyĀ onĀ you?āĀ sheĀ echoedĀ withĀ aĀ softĀ laugh,Ā alreadyĀ shakingĀ herĀ head.Ā ābabe,Ā thisĀ isĀ myĀ easy.Ā youĀ shouldĀ seeĀ whatĀ iĀ makeĀ theĀ regularsĀ sufferĀ through.āĀ itĀ wasĀ teasingĀ ...Ā light,Ā warm,Ā meantĀ toĀ takeĀ theĀ edgeĀ offĀ ratherĀ thanĀ scareĀ her.Ā sheĀ crossedĀ theĀ roomĀ toĀ her,Ā tappingĀ theĀ nearestĀ bikeĀ withĀ herĀ knuckles.Ā āyouĀ getĀ theĀ VIPĀ treatment.āĀ sheĀ smiled,Ā adjustingĀ theĀ seatĀ heightĀ withĀ practicedĀ ease.Ā āiāmĀ notĀ lettingĀ yourĀ firstĀ classĀ beĀ aĀ disasterĀ storyĀ youĀ tellĀ everyoneĀ aboutĀ later.āĀ aĀ beat,Ā herĀ smileĀ softening.Ā āmeaning,Ā ifĀ youĀ hateĀ it,Ā weĀ quit,Ā noĀ shame.ā
