"Sports Bra" by stcheese (intramural sex) 10, 10, 10
"Sports Bra" by stcheese (stcheese@hotmail.com). {Link: to the first three stories I reviewed for this issue, I decided to find a story that would disabuse my readers of the notion that my ratings have been getting too high lately. "Sports Bra." Now there's a lame-ass story if I ever saw one. But dammit! I start reading the story and soon I'm on the edge of my seat. The college guy has come out of the library after a really rough day and a sexy woman in the eponymous sports bra comes up to him, gives him a sexy kiss, and whispers, "Play along!" Well, at least I got to say "eponymous" in this review. I really like that word. Allegedly, this woman has noticed that she was being stalked by a creepy pervert, and she needs our non-eponymous hero to supply some security. My own suspicions at this point are that she's a roving nymphomaniac or has lost a sorority bet. Wrong again. She's Serena. He's Cal. She thinks he has saved her life. I think that makes them blood-siblings, but maybe that's only in the Inuit culture. But then they would have rubbed noses instead of kissing. But I digress. Meanwhile, Cal has swollen up tremendously. No, it's not what you think. He hurt his ankle playing intramural softball that afternoon. And no, it did not happen in Taria's short story of that title. Serena is a sports medicine major; so she offers to do something about his engorged body part, as compensation for his saving her ass. And a lovely ass it is. On the way to her dorm, they come upon - er, see - a strange-looking guy near the soccer field with his shorts pulled down to his ankles, jerking off. They think this is Serena's stalker, but I think this was just a soccer goalie. Goalkeepers have very little to do in most college soccer games, and this sort of activity is not at all unusual. Serena is wearing a Nike ensemble. You know their motto: "Be the best that you can be." Just kidding: "Just do it!" They just follow the motto - eventually. Serena has a roommate. But she goes shortly after they get there. I'll bet you thought she was going to come. Then Serena goes to talk to the RA. That's an Egyptian sun god, I think. Then at 2:15 a.m., they start giggling and decide to take a shower together. To do this, Serena removes her sports bra, but the title of the story stays the same. Soon Cal experiences additional swelling. Eventually they have sex, several times. This is a very good story. It reads like a story written by an authentic, creative college student. My main suggestion to the author is to get a better name. Ratings for "Sports Bra" Athena (technical quality): 10 Venus (plot & character): 10 Celeste (appeal to reviewer): 10 |
