Jude usually got one day off a week. Most people never really thought about the amount of work that went into being a Diocesan priest. Jude liked it, every day had a structure but was very different. He enjoyed talking to people, to being a part of his Parishioners lives. But the intrusion of Mathias had caused a shift in the simple rhythm of his life. He struggled with why the younger man caused him such a problem. He was attractive of course. But it wasn't something so base and simple as that. Jude sighed as put his towel on a chair and slipped into one of the swimming lanes at the YMCA's pool. It was a cheap and effective way for him to exercise, and it was very goo for his left leg. He had been absent for a while as his ribs healed enough for him to actually allow him to swim. He should have waited another week but he needed the physical activity. Both of his tattoos were visible. The cross on his right arm and the much more intricate one that wrapped it's way around his left thigh. A reason why he came to the pool usually very early or like today, late in the evening. He knew the staff and they didn't mind if he went over the time. Jude tried to focus on just his breathing, with his movement of arms and legs as he swam his laps. His mind drifting back towards the kiss when he wasn't pushing himself to focus. He finally stopped, hooking his arms over the edge as he tread water slowly, his breathing steadying. When he felt someone watching him.
