Nine – Jay
F*ck Up Some Commas blasted through my earbuds as I lifted the weight over my chest one last time. I took a breath, then racked the barbell, sitting up to nod my head at the gym employee spotting for me, before he moved on to another patron. I was done, and my muscles were exhausted.
Too bad it wasn’t time to go home.
After my shower, it would be time to head to campus. I was beyond glad that once I finished this year, I’d be the proud owner of a shiny new mechanical engineering degree, with a focus on automotives. I wasn’t gaining any new knowledge in the classes that actually related to my degree – just confirming what I’d already learned in the army. But, the internships I’d found in the field – at least the ones that led to the good jobs - wanted you to have the piece of paper, so the next thirty credit hours would find me at BSU.
I took my time cleaning off the weight bench, since nobody was waiting for it. Even though I had somewhere to be, I had to walk through the cardio area to get back to the showers, and I wasn’t looking forward to that shit at all.
I made a mental note to get myself a weight set for home, sooner than later.
When I couldn’t put it off anymore, I pulled out my phone, tugging the cord to my earbuds from its secure spot under my shirt. I hooked them up again, but nothing was playing. I just had the phone out, hoping that the sight of it would make these women leave me the fuck alone.
Apparently, I didn’t have that kind of luck.
As I approached the area that housed the spin classes and didn’t see the normal crowd outside, I got excited. Hell yeah, they’re already gone, I thought. Unfortunately for me, that wasn’t the case. The door swung open as I approached, and about thirty women came streaming out. I didn’t stop moving, but I saw them so they definitely saw me, and about two seconds later, it started.
“Jaaay!”
“Awww!”
“I so admire your strength!”
“Do you need anything? Anything?”
Plenty of men would have loved this type of attention, but I wasn’t one of them. It was one thing for women to flock because they thought I was attractive – it was a whole other thing for me to get this attention out of pity.
The sympathetic looks made me sick to my stomach, and the sympathy pussy was even worse. I hadn’t even really dated in the time I’d had my prosthetic, because every time a woman found out about it, she wanted to “help” me, and “take care” of me, instead of just treating me like a regular ass human being. Obviously, that wasn’t counting the ones who were freaked out by it, as it if I were contagious, or an invalid, or… shit, some type of alien controlling a life-sized human doll.
Fuck all of that.
I gave those women a weak smile, and kept walking, trying not to let it affect my mood.
