They all lived near each other when they were in high school and hung out all of the time. They had a lot in common and always got along real well. The three friends were very close in high school but they all figured that high school would be the extent of their relationship. They didn't all plan on going to the same college, nearby colleges, or doing anything to stay close. In fact when they went to college they went to three separate colleges that were all at least 300 miles apart from each other. When the three friends went off to college they figured they'd be starting new lives and that they wouldn't keep in touch that often so they said their goodbyes and planned on moving on. Turner, Adam, and Lynn sat in Adam's living room as they all hung out. They were now all 25-years-old and still great friends. Their thoughts that they would lose touch in college proved not to be true. Although they had fun in college and had their own social lives, the age of technology allowed them to stay in touch with each other frequently through email, instant messenger, and free long distance plans on their cell phones and although they made new friends in college they still stayed in touch through the internet and the phone, constantly catching up with each other sharing stories and what not, and whenever they came home for a school break they had a ton of fun hanging out together in their hometown. They all graduated college within four years and they all ended up moving back to their hometown. They got their own apartments but now they had each been out of college for three years and they hung out together all of the time just like they did in high school. College didn't change any of them a whole lot and they still had the same interests and same senses of humor that kept their friendship strong that entire time. The only habit of theirs that differed a little from going to college was their physical fitness routines. In high school all three of them were pretty lazy. They were pretty skinny because all they did most of the time was sit around, smoke pot, play video games, and gossip about other people at school. Turner and Adam were tall in high school, but quite skinny, and Lynn was short and very petite and didn't even weigh a hundred pounds back then. She had kind of a hippie style to her in high school which didn't make her very attractive. When they went to college their peers influenced their decisions on their physical fitness. Adam began hanging out with some jocks and spent over and hour a day in the gym with them. He admitted to Turner and Lynn that he did one cycle or steroids and he went from weighing about 150 lbs. before he started college to close to 210 by the time he graduated. His lower body gained a fair amount of weight but his pecs and especially his arms were enormous. His upper body did look jacked but Turner and Lynn would often joke behind his back about all of the work he put into to his arms and chest and how he looked a little ridiculous that the rest of his body wasn't as balanced. Lynn got in with a crowd that definitely got her away from her hippie side. She never did any steroids or any kind of supplement but she spent a great deal of her time running, taking spinning and cycling classes, and doing various exercise at the gym as well. Lynn wasn't really a tomboy or anything in high school but she liked playing video games and had a lot in common with Turner and Adam so they had always looked at her as one of the guys. Seeing her get in shape and get herself good looking was odd to Turner and Adam. When they'd see her coming back from college and her petite body looked all toned and athletic, when she wasn't around the two guys would say "damn, Lynn got hot!" And it sure was a weird thing for them to say. Turner was the one of the three that didn't hit the gym. He was too busy partying and having fun. He did take his studies seriously and he did well in college so he always saw going to gym as just more work that wasn't necessary so he never even went once in his entire four years of college. Like Adam, Turner weighed about 150 lbs. before college. His lack of exercise didn't make him get fat or anything but he didn't gain any muscle either. From age 18 to age 25 Turner gained a total of about fifteen pounds in those seven years and weighed about 165. So like they had been doing for the past decade or so the three friends were hanging out in Adam's living room trying to decide what they wanted to do. They were each drinking a bud light and Adam was flipping around on the TV channels. "Hey Turner, someone told me that Maxine Welsh beat you in arm wrestling" Adam just said out of the blue. Turner wasn't sure where Adam had heard that but it was true. He had been at a party the other night and he and Maxine had arm wrestled more as a joke than anything else. Maxine was a muscular girl that played basketball recreationally and was always working out at the gym. She was about 6'3 and easily weighed over 200 lbs. She was just having some fun at the party they were at, teasing some of the guys, and she challenged Turner to arm wrestling. She had pinned Turner easily but since she was much bigger and more muscular than the average girl Turner felt absolutely no shame at losing to her. It wouldn't be like if he had lost to a small girl like Lynn or anything. "Yeah, that chick killed me" Turner laughed back and he took a swig of his Bud Light. "That is pathetic" Adam said back with disgust. "You never work out and now you have girls beating you." Turner found himself very annoyed, very quickly. He thought about how na‹ve Adam's comment was. Maxine was a body builder and could probably beat most of the guys they knew that didn't live at the gym in arm wrestling. But of course now that Adam was the big steroid-head he had to have his macho attitude that no girl should be stronger than a guy and he had to give Turner shit about it. "Bro, she's huge" Turner said back. "She could beat a lot of guys we know." "Well then a lot of guys should get to the gym more" Adam said and he turned the TV off. "Alright, I'm getting bored sitting around watching TV. What do you two want to do?" "I want to arm wrestle Turner" Lynn said abruptly and Turner found himself quite annoyed when she said that especially since he didn't know why she said it. Well, he had a hunch as to why she said it and if his hunch was right he was going to be very annoyed. "Why?" he asked sounding frustrated. "I wanna see if I can beat you" she said back very cool and calmly. Turner could feel his blood boiling. "You two are so dumb" Turner snapped back and he was shouting a little bit. "Have either of you seen Maxine Welsh? She is huge. She is an Amazon girl and I guarantee you that there are a lot of guys that she can beat in arm wrestling. You're tiny Lynn and despite the fact that, that large girl beat me I assure you that you wouldn't have a chance." "Why are you getting so angry?" Lynn asked and Turner pondered the question since it was a good one. He thought to himself about it and realized that the reason he was so angry was that Lynn's challenge was a no-win situation for him. He was sure that he was going to win but beating her was going to prove nothing. Lynn was very small and he and Adam always saw Lynn as the small girl so if he beat her Adam would just taunt him and say something like "oh, so you beat Lynn, good job." If Lynn was able to put up any kind of a fight Adam would probably use that against Turner. And then, for a very brief second, Turner considered the possibility of Lynn winning. That would be something he could never, ever live down. It was unlikely, very unlikely, but still the worst case scenario and even the best case scenario of the two of them arm wrestling was pretty bad. Turner tried to stop thinking about him losing to Lynn because he was confident that wasn't going to happen but he still knew that nothing good for him could come from the two of them arm wrestling. "I've been working out my upper body a lot at the gym lately" Lynn continued before Turner was actually able to answer the question that she had asked him. "I used to mainly just work my legs and tone my upper body but since my legs have been getting a lot stronger it has made my upper body stronger too so I've been doing some bench pressing. I bench press about 105 now." Right when Lynn said that it made Turner feel relieved. He never went to his college gym but he had used a bench press before and he knew he could bench at least 135. He figured Lynn had just proved herself wrong on her idea that she may be able to beat him. "105 is nothing" he said back still sounding angry. "I could lift about 150, there is no WAY you could beat me in arm wrestling." "It's different for girls, though" Lynn said still sounding very calm which was annoying Turner. "Girls can never bench press that much but they are still often a lot stronger than they seem. I've seen that Maxine girl before and I know she is big but I wouldn't be surprised if she couldn't even bench press 105." Turner got a bit worried when he realized Lynn's point was right. He remembered walking by the gym a few times in college and seeing some big girls that had trouble benching even 95 lbs. Lynn was wearing a gold t-shirt, jeans, and she had white socks on with gold tips at the toes that matched her t-shirt. He looked at her arms. They were slender but they did have quite the muscle definition to them and they did look fairly strong. As the possibility of them arm wrestling right there neared, Turner found himself getting a bit worried. He still felt sure he could beat Lynn but it seemed pretty likely that she was going to give him a run for his money. "Come on let's do it real quick just for fun" Lynn said. "Then we'll go out and do something afterwards." Turner looked at Lynn and he looked at Adam. He could tell by the way they were staring at him that they wanted him to go ahead and do it. He probably could have made some excuse of why he didn't want to but he knew if he did it would probably get brought up again later in the night as well as in the future until he went through with it so he figured he may as well just do it and get it over with. "OK, fine where do you want to do it?" Turner asked reluctantly. "We'll do it on Adam's kitchen table" Lynn said back and she stood up ready to go. "It's a good height for it and it's cleared off already so we can do it in there." Both Turner and Adam stood up as well and they all started walking towards the table. "If you lose to Lynn then you better be ready to meet me in the gym at 5:30 Monday morning because you will really need to get on my workout plan" Adam said to Turner. Adam's tone was not making fun of Turner but it was expressing that Turner was truly a weak, pathetic man if we wasn't able to win the match that was ahead of him. Turner and Lynn sat across from each other at the kitchen table. They both put their right elbows on the table and got ready to lock their hands. When Turner had arm wrestled Maxine she was laughing and treating it as kind of a joke but Lynn had a dry, calm look on her face which Turner interpreted as her saying "Hey we're going to arm wrestle and I may win and I may lose, big deal." Adam watched over the both of them as they locked their hands getting ready to start. Lynn's hand felt slender and small and as he felt her womanly hand and how soft if felt it reminded Turner that Lynn was not a big, basketball type like Maxine was. She was just a small girl and he was probably going to win the match with ease. However, once Adam said "go" and they both started trying Turner could tell immediately that he was going to lose. When he arm wrestled Maxine she had basically just slammed his hand down on the table in about three seconds. Even though he and Lynn began in a stalemate, just by feeling her bicep muscle resisting against his and the inability he had to move her at all he could tell that there was no way he was going to beat her. They sat there pushing at each other's arms and all Turner could do was hope maybe she would give up before it was over although he realized that he was reaching for straws and that was very unlikely. Lynn began, very slowly, to start moving Turner's arm in the direction that gave her the advantage and as hard as Turner pushed he was unable to stop her from doing so at all. He could feel his face straining and getting red and he looked up at Lynn and she still had that calm, dry look she had on her face before they even started. Very, very slowly, Lynn moved Turner's arm and moved his hand closer to the table and the entire time he could feel the ache in his bicep from trying to resist her bicep that was clearly stronger. This was way worse than this match against Maxine. That match was over with in seconds but this was a long, drawn-out match that was way more painful and way more humiliating. The pattern continued. Turner sat there trying with all of his arm strength and his face getting more and more red to keep Lynn from moving his arm but he was unable to stop her. Lynn sat there with the straightest look on her pretty face and she brought his arm closer to the table. After a long match that seemed to do nothing more than delay the inevitable Lynn got his wrist down to the table. Turner gave it once last chance bending his wrist and keeping his knuckles from hitting the table but as he did so it just made his bicep hurt more and more and eventually he stopped trying to resist and Lynn hit his knuckles on the table winning the match. And that was it. Lynn let go of his hand, still with her straight face, not getting cocky or arrogant at all about the fact that she just beat a much heavier guy in arm- wrestling. Turner just sat there with his bicep still hurting and he couldn't believe what had just happened. Little Lynnie who was always just that small, cool, little girl that they had hung out with had just easily beat him in a test of strength. They had been good friends for the past ten years and Turner was having difficulty with the fact that whenever they hung out from there on in, it would always be known that Lynn was stronger than he was. Adam just walked away from the table shaking his head in disgust. Turner figured that if any of his other guy friends were there they probably would have just busted Turner's balls a little bit about the loss in a joking kind of way but Adam looked truly pissed off like Turner had just shamed the entire male species by losing to a small girl. "Unreal" Adam said and he smacked the back of his head with the palms of his hands. Then he turned back around and faced Turner and Lynn. "Un-fucking-real! She weighs about fifty pounds less than you and she is a girl! How can you not be as pissed as I am right now that you just lost to her?" Turner felt embarrassed enough about losing and the way Adam was digging in to him was really making him feel like rat shit. "Oh leave him alone" Lynn chimed in and even though Turner wasn't really hot on the idea of needing a girl to stick up for him he was glad Lynn said something since he certainly didn't know what he was going to say to Adam's question. "Why don't you arm wrestle me now? Turner didn't think I could beat him and I did. Maybe I can beat you too." When Lynn said that Turner was hoping her challenge would give Adam the same combination of anger and doubt that Turner felt when he was challenged by Lynn but then Turner looked in Adam's eyes and although he did see anger he definitely didn't see even a tiny bit of doubt. "I will destroy you Lynn" Adam said with complete confidence and he had already begun walking towards the table to accept her challenge. "I'll beat you in seconds. You are not going to beat me in arm wrestling I guarantee you that!" Adam was heated and he stood right in front of the chair that Turner was sitting and Turner quickly got up so Adam could sit down. Turner was really, really hoping that somehow Lynn would be able to upset Adam like she did to Turner but as Adam put his huge arm on the table and Turner saw all of the muscles Adam had from all of the weightlifting and all of the steroids he knew realistically that Lynn did not stand a chance. "Come on are we doing this or what?" Adam challenged and Lynn locked her much smaller arm with Adam's. "Oh boy, your arm feels way stronger than Turner's already and we haven't even started yet" Lynn said and that just confirmed to Turner that Lynn was going to lose. "Count to three and get us going whenever you are ready, Turner" Adam said he looked fired up and ready to go. Turner counted to three and the match began. They started in a brief stalemate but Turner could tell from the look of struggle on little Lynn's face and the big smile on Adam's face that Adam wasn't trying at all. Adam then took Lynn's little arm and brought it down to the table in victory probably even faster and with more ease than Maxine had did to him a few days ago. Even though Adam won the match quickly he pushed Lynn's knuckles to the table very gently like a gentleman and then let go of her hand. "Well, guess I can't beat you in arm wrestling" Lynn said to Adam in a comedic way since she had lost so badly. "Yeah, I'm no Turner" Adam said with a look of happiness and confidence and the look on face looked like he had just won one for the male side. "My legs are way stronger than my arms are, though" Lynn said. "My arms I just work occasionally but I am working my legs constantly. I bet I could beat you in leg wrestling." "Who do you bet you could beat, Turner?" Adam asked and his happy persona seemed to be quickly going to angry since Turner could tell that Adam knew that Lynn was really talking to Adam. "No, you" Lynn said back calmly. And once Lynn said that the whole expression on Adam's face changed drastically and Turner felt a great deal of satisfaction. He knew the exact look that Adam had on his face and it was probably the same look Turner had on his face when Lynn challenged him to arm wrestling. It was a look of initial anger at the fact that the small, long time friend, girl thought she could beat him followed by extreme worry that their small, cute, little friend would beat him in a test of strength. And the evidence was there to back it up. It was true that Lynn had been running, spinning, doing Stairmaster, and working her legs non-stop since college while even though Adam had worked out a ton and even done steroids he was mainly a chest and arm guy and didn't spend nearly enough time working his legs. Turner had no doubt in his mind that Adam was worried about the thought of possibly losing to Lynn and after all Adam had just said making Turner feel bad about himself, Turner was very glad Adam was in that position. "Lynnie, don't be ridiculous" Adam said and he stood up and took a few steps away from the table. "I just destroyed you in arm wrestling and I would do the exact same thing to you in leg wrestling." "Probably, but I'd still like to try" Lynn said back to him. "My legs are what I work out all of the time. I've seen your legs and their not overly big like your arms are. Come on, Turner arm wrestled me when he didn't want to. Just do one round." Turner looked at Adam pondering it some more and he could tell exactly that Adam was pretty worried and didn't want to do it but also felt backed into a corner by Lynn, just like Turner had felt when she had challenged him to arm wrestle. "Fine, whatever" Adam said sounding annoyed. "I'll do it once, why not." Lynn stood up and motioned for the two guys to follow her. "Let's go do it in the living room" Lynn said and Turner and Adam followed her back into the living room. She then grabbed one end of the coffee table that was in there. "Here, one of you guys help me move this out of here so we can do it on the carpet" she said. Adam was quick to grab the other end of the table and help her like he was somehow showing he was more of a man by helping her move the table. When they had moved it out of the way Lynn sat on the carpet and Adam still stood. "So what exactly is this?" Adam asked. "I can't say I've ever leg wrestled before. Is this that Indian leg wrestling where we lie down, hold a leg straight up in the air, then lock our legs our and try to bring the other one's leg down to the ground?" "No" Lynn laughed. "Indian leg wrestling is more like a game that little girls play than a real test of strength. We'll have a foot fight. Basically, we both lie on our backs and put our legs up in the air with our thighs going straight up in the air, our knees pointing to the ceiling, then we bend our knees so our shins also face the ceiling, and we touch the bottoms of our feet together like we are on a sitting, straight leg press machine. Then we basically try to leg press the other one's legs. Once the bottoms of our feet touch, Turner will say "go" and we both push as hard as we can and the object is to push the other's legs back to their body." "Sounds like that game, footsies" Adam said back sounding unimpressed. "I guess it's kind of like that" Lynn said. "But it shows you who has stronger legs, trust me. I used to do this with my girlfriends in college all of the time and whoever has the stronger legs will definitely win." "Alright then let's do it" Adam said and he sat on the ground. Adam and Lynn both lied on their backs and got themselves into the position that Lynn had told them too. They were both wearing socks and no shoes and they touched the bottoms of their feet together. Lynn's feet looked cute with her white socks with the yellow toe on them. Adam was wearing baggy jeans so Turner couldn't see his legs but he had seen Adam's legs plenty of times in the past and knew that for a workout, steroid guy his legs weren't particularly big. Lynn wore tight jeans and when the two were sitting that way Turner could see Lynn's defined legs through the jeans. Although, Lynn's legs did look a bit muscular they still really weren't that big and due to the fact that her body as a whole was quite petite, Turner figured that unfortunately even though Lynn would probably do better in the leg wrestling than she did in the arm wrestling against Adam, she was still probably going to lose. "OK Turner, you tell us when to go" Lynn said and she looked ready. Turner counted to three and said "go". The two competitors started pushing at the other one's feet trying to push their legs back so they could win. Turner looked at their legs and neither of them seemed to be able to move the other. He could see Lynn's leg muscles starting to bulge a bit through her tight jeans and he could tell she was really pushing hard. He couldn't see Adam's legs through the baggy jeans so he couldn't tell how hard he was pushing. He turned his head to look at Adam's face and he could tell by the look on Adam's face that he was really struggling. His face was beat red, his head was shaking, and a vein was popping out of his forehead. If nothing else, Lynn was definitely giving him a run for his money. Turner then turned his head to look at Lynn's face and he was pleasantly surprised when he saw it. He had expected that Lynn would be struggling as much, if not more than Adam was but when he looked at her face the only thing he saw was a big, cute smile. Lynn was not struggling at all and she was just sitting there enjoying the fact that the big, bodybuilder Adam was not able to move her legs at all even when he was struggling as much as he was. Lynn then nonchalantly began to push and with ease she pushed back Adam's legs until his knees touched his chest and she won. Turner could not believe it. A small, small part of him had really hoped that Lynn was going to be able to pull the upset but he didn't actually believe for a second that it was actually going to happen. When it did it made him feel great. After all that time Adam spent giving Turner a hard time about losing to Lynn now Adam got to feel what it was like as well. That would shut him up from talking any more trash to Turner. Turner looked at Adam and could tell he was pissed off. "That was bullshit" Adam said angrily. "That was footsies; a kids game. It means nothing." "What it means is that I have stronger legs than you" Lynn said. "That is the best test of leg strength because it uses all of the muscles in your legs and there isn't room to cheat like there is in Indian leg wrestling." Adam looked like he was looking for something to say but he couldn't think of anything to say back to Lynn. Before either of them had a chance to say anything else Turner opened up his mouth. "I want to leg wrestle Lynn now" Turner said out of nowhere. Both Adam and Lynn immediately turned their heads to look at Turner and with the looks of shock they each had on their faces one would have thought that Turner had just said that he had just seen a pink elephant flying out the window. Adam gave Turner an angry look of shock and Lynn just got a huge smile on her cute little face like Turner had completely gone out of his mind. "Wwwwwhy???" Lynn asked still with utter shock in her voice. "To see if I can win" Turner said. "You just beat us right now and neither of us expected to you to and you proved us wrong. Maybe I can prove you two wrong too." That was the reason that Turner told them that he wanted to leg wrestle against Lynn. And it was even the answer that he somewhat convinced himself of why he wanted to leg wrestle Lynn. The truth was that he knew for sure that Lynn was going to beat him and he knew she was going to beat him easily. Adam lived in the gym and had taken steroids so since Lynn had beaten Adam with such ease Turner knew that she would beat him with even more ease. So deep down inside he didn't want to leg wrestle Lynn to see if he could win. He wanted to leg wrestle her because he was curious. He was curious exactly what it was going to feel like to be completely overpowered by her which would clearly expose how much weaker he was than her and most likely cause him some humiliation. Lynn had always been the cute little girl that hung out with Turner and Adam. The entire ten years or so they had been hanging out Turner always looked at her as weak and frail. This new knowledge that he was learning that Lynn was not only stronger than him, but considerably stronger than him, felt very strange not in a bad way and not really in a good way either but the thought of it caused a really strange feeling for Turner which was making him want to explore that feeling a bit deeper. But he definitely didn't share that with his friends and didn't even admit it to himself. "OK, if you want to" Lynn said and her tone of voice clearly implied that Turner was nuts. "We'll do it on the couch this time." Turner wondered why Lynn leg wrestled Adam on the floor but now she wanted to go against Turner on the couch but he didn't ask why. He wanted the upcoming, mysterious event to be completely natural and he didn't want to do anything to interrupt that. The two of them lied on the couch on their backs in the same position that Adam and Lynn were in for their leg wrestling. "You have absolutely no chance" Lynn said confidently as they lifted their legs and her saying that sent a weird chill down Turner's spine. They were both in their socks and they touched the soles of their feet together. In all of the years that Turner knew Lynn he realized that he didn't think he had ever touched her feet before and having their soles in contact, even through their socks, felt a little strange as well. "OK Adam, count to three and then say go for us" Lynn said. Adam counted and he said "go". Right when they began Turner immediately starting pushing with all of his might trying to use all of the various muscles in his legs to try and push Lynn's legs back even a little bit but it was like he was pushing against a steel wall. He knew that she was going to be much stronger than him but he couldn't get over the strange sensation he felt from being proven to be extremely weaker than this little girl that he had always been a close friend with. He looked over at her face and sure enough she was just sitting there smiling like she had been when she leg wrestled Adam, showing no signs of strain or fatigue whatsoever. She then began to push back at first pushing his legs lightly and then she suddenly pushed with full force. When she did this not only did she push Turner's legs back with ease but she pushed Turner so hard that, against his will, he did a backwards somersault and flipped over the arm of the couch that was behind him. When Lynn flipped him over the couch he hit the side of his head against the ground hard. Hitting his head hurt quite a bit and he found himself angry that Lynn had done that to him. The pain bothered him as much as the humiliation of being flipped over the arm of the couch that way. He was angry with Lynn and when he began to rise to his feet he held his head with his hand to make it obvious to her that she had hurt him. He definitely wanted an apology but he wasn't going to suck up his pride and ask for one so he just wanted to make it obvious that he was hurt and he hoped that she would then offer the apology. As Turner stood up holding his head in pain with an annoyed look on his face he looked at Lynn. Not only did she not offer an apology but she actually started laughing. "That's why I did it on the couch" she laughed and she had a pleasantly surprised look on her face. "I wanted to see if I could flip you over like that. That's hilarious that I was able to." Turner was shocked and beyond angry. As he stood there with a pain in his head that was probably going to bruise not only did Lynn not apologize for doing that to him but she also laughed at his pain and admitted that she had intended to do it. Turner had never been so angry with Lynn in all of the years he knew her. There had been other times in his life where Turner had been angry with Lynn and wanted to start a fight with her but he never did so because he didn't want to beat up a small girl. Now as he looked at her there laughing at his pain and embarrassment he wanted to start a fight with her but he realized that he wasn't going to do so not because he didn't want to beat up a small girl but because he didn't want the small girl to beat up him. He had challenged her to leg wrestle because he knew he was going to lose and he was curious what that would feel like and now that he was feeling it he knew the sensation was a very weird one that he had definitely never felt in his life. Sitting right in front of him was this small, cute girl that he had been great friends with over a decade that he had always thought of just small, cute, and weak and now not only had she proven to him that she was much stronger than he was but she was sitting there laughing at him about it. Turner felt like he was on some kind of drug by the way his emotions were racing in a weird way. It wasn't a good feeling and not even necessarily a bad feeling but it was definitely a very intense one and Turner's entire world felt different. He didn't know how to feel about that and didn't know what to do or stay as he stood there still holding his head with no sympathy whatsoever from the person responsible for hurting him. Lynn finally spoke up and said something to interrupt the uneasy situation. "OK well I've beat you twice now Turner so no more between me and you" she said, no longer laughing about it. "But Adam and I need to have a tiebreaker." Once Lynn said that the attention was taken off of Turner and brought right back to Adam. "What do you mean a tiebreaker?" Adam asked and he sounded annoyed. "We need to have a tiebreaker" she laughed back. "We've each won one. You won the upper body and I won the lower body. We need to now do a full body strength competition to see which one of us is truly the strongest." "OK, fine you want a tiebreaker?" Adam asked angrily. "We'll do a tiebreaker. We'll arm wrestle left-handed now." "Arm wrestle left-handed?" she asked back with surprise. "Are you crazy? Nice try. We already arm wrestled. That's like me suggesting we leg wrestle on the couch this time instead of the floor. And it needs to be a full body strength test, not just arms or legs. We should just wrestle for the tiebreaker." Turner saw a look of surprise on Adam's face and Turner had to admit that he felt the same surprise. "You want to wrestle me?" Adam asked back like she had said something completely dumb. "Like real wrestling? You really want to wrestle ME?" Turner was wondering the same thing that Adam was. Adam had destroyed her in arm wrestling and Turner assumed that he would do the same thing to her in wrestling. Yes, Lynn had won the leg wrestling match but Adam's legs were definitely not overly big. Turner looked at the overall frame of the two of them. Adam weighed close to twice what Lynn weighed. She had strong legs but she was short and had that petite body of hers. Adam was much taller than she was and much bigger overall especially his upper body, which made her upper body look tiny. Turner wanted to think that Lynn would be able to pull another upset and beat Adam in wrestling but by looking at the two of them he couldn't imagine a scenario where that could happen. "Yeah, does that bother you?" Lynn asked not backing down from the challenge at all. "Not in the slightest" he said back confidently but still sounded irritated. "How are we going to do this, though? Is Turner going to count when whoever is pinned down?" "No, this isn't the WWE" Lynn said and now she was talking like Adam had said something completely dumb. "We wrestle until the other one gives up." "OK, well what are the rules then?" Adam asked. "Can I just do whatever I want?" "No, its wrestling" she said. "So you have to use only wrestling moves. No striking, biting, hair pulling, pinching, or scratching." Turner was surprised that Lynn had taken all of those things away as options because he thought they would have been the only way that Lynn stood a chance of winning. He looked at Adam and Adam seemed to share the same surprise. "Alright, if you want" Adam said. "Works for me." Adam quickly went back to the living room rug and he seemed ready to wrestle. They had already moved the coffee table out of the living room early so there was plenty of room for them. Lynn stood up and walked to where they would be wrestling as well. "OK Turner will tell us when to go" Lynn said and she started to get in a wrestling stance. "Then we wrestle until the other one gives up. This is the tiebreaker so whoever wins this one is the winner." Turner thought that Lynn looked real cute getting into the wrestling stance but he didn't see any possible way that she was going to be able to overpower Adam. Her cuteness distracted him briefly but then he said "go" for them to begin. The two circled around a bit with very serious looks on their faces. It didn't take long before Adam lunged at Lynn and immediately put her in a headlock. Adam's arms which were now flexing looked so big in comparison to Lynn's entire body. Adam didn't need to work that hard to beat Lynn in arm wrestling so Turner didn't really notice how big Adam's arms truly were during the arm wrestling but now that Adam was taking the strength tests a lot more seriously he was trying a lot harder and the massive size of his arms was extremely obvious. His muscles were bulging as well as the veins in his arms. Turner was sure that there was no way that Lynn was going to be able to get out of that headlock and he felt sure that she would be giving up very soon. Turner turned his attention to Lynn and he noticed that she was very stuck and very frustrated by it. She was waving her arms around and stomping her feet. She was wearing tight jeans so her cute little ass was sticking out as Adam had her bent at the waist. Turner then peeked in at her face which was hard to see because of the headlock she was in and when he peeked in he saw that her face was beat red with an angry look on it. "Get the fuck off of me!" she yelled angrily and Adam just continued his headlock not paying any attention to her. She then began smacking at Adam's big arms which didn't faze him at all. "No striking" Adam said with a little bit of strain as he grabbed her wrist to move her hand away. "Get the FUCK off of me!" she yelled even louder. "Give up and I will" Adam said back. "Do you give up?" "NO!" she yelled back with anger that Turner didn't know was inside of her. "GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!" "Give up and I will" Adam said back trying to stay calm and for the first time that night Turner was starting to side with Adam and not Lynn because he agreed she should give up if she wanted him to let go. "You mother fucker!" she yelled and then Turner couldn't believe what he saw her do next. With amazing aggression Lynn took her hands and managed to grab Adam's one shoulder and then she took her left leg and swept Adam's legs out from under him. Her strong leg easily swept Adam off of his feet and he fell backwards still holding Lynn in the headlock. Adam's back hit the ground hard and after his back hit, his head jerked back and hit the ground fairly hard as well. Turner knew that if Adam's head had hit the ground as hard as his back had he would have been knocked out immediately. Lynn went to the ground with him and although Adam tried to hold her in the headlock, the blow he took to the head weakened him and Lynn was able to slide out of it. Once Lynn got out of the headlock and Turner saw the look on her beat red face Turner felt worried for Adam and he felt very thankful that Lynn wasn't that angry with him. She looked ready to kill. While Adam still lay on the ground, clearly in a little bit of a daze from the hit that he took to his head, with speed and technique little Lynn slid her left leg underneath the back of Adam's neck and put her right leg over his Adam's apple putting him in neck scissors. Then she squeezed. The enormous vein that looked like it was going to pop right out of Adam's forehead amazed Adam but not nearly as much as the purplish color that his face turned to. Adam's face looked almost like something in a cartoon of someone that had just drank some poison, or something, and Turner felt sure that Lynn was going to knock him unconscious. He also had a look of great fear on his face and Turner knew that Adam was not going to be able to free himself of Lynn's strong scissor hold. He tried to pull her legs apart without and success whatsoever and then he started smacking at them. "No striking" Lynn said and Turner could tell that her saying that made Adam even angrier. Adam then smacked at the ground and then made some kind of weird noise. It was clear he just wanted to be set free of Lynn's scissors even if it meant giving up. Turner still was amazed at Lynn's intensity and how she was able to completely take over the match with this guy that was twice the size of her. "Do you give up?" Lynn asked and Adam desperately smacked at the ground again. "I'm going to loosen my legs very briefly so you can talk. If you say you give up I will let go and I will win. If you don't say that you give up I'm gonna tighten my legs even harder and not let you go until I knock your ass out. Ready?" Lynn then loosened her legs. Turner was very curious to see if Adam was going to give up to Lynn and let her be the winner or if he was going to use the opportunity to break free. He could tell that Adam definitely thought for a second about trying to fight back but then thought better of it. "I give up" the meathead steroid guy said. Then Lynn let go. When she let go, Turner was even more amazed how she instantly went from looking like a psychopath that was about to kill Adam right back to the normal, cute little Lynn again. It was like she had her game face on the entire match and now that the game was over she put it behind her and immediately went right back to being herself. Turner then looked at Adam who definitely didn't go back to looking normal. He lay on the ground looking hurt, angry and humiliated. Lynn stood up and offered Adam her hand to help him up. "Fuck you!" he yelled at Lynn and he was definitely not joking. Lynn then looked at Turner with her big, pretty smile then looked back at Adam and held her hand out for him again. "Come on, be a good sport" Lynn said and based on her tone Turner could tell that she was genuinely offering her help and that she was not trying to taunt him. "FUCK YOU!" Adam yelled back even angrier and then jumped to his feet. "Fuck you! That was fucking bullshit!" Based on the way Adam was behaving Turner feared that Adam was going to charge after her but instead he just quickly ran into his bedroom and slammed the door shut like a child. Lynn then looked at Turner still with the big smile on her face. He returned the smile but then felt a little bit of fear. He wasn't quite sure if it was a friendly smile or an evil smile. What he did know was that Lynn had just kicked Adam's ass and now Lynn and Turner were alone. He knew she had said that there wouldn't be a third strength test between her and Turner since she had already won the first two but he feared that the smile on her face meant that she changed her mind and that she wanted to wrestle him. If she had just beaten Adam in wrestling she would destroy Turner. He felt that weird sensation again that he felt earlier when Lynn had beaten him badly in leg wrestling. This small, cute little girl was superior to him in strength and it made him feel quite odd and even more-so now that they were alone. He began to think even deeper into the fact that since they were alone she could pretty much make him do whatever she wanted to and that made him feel even stranger. His weird feeling was interrupted when Lynn opened her mouth. "Wow, I can't believe what a baby he is" she said with the big smile still on her face. "You'd think a big gym rat like that would be able to take a loss like a man, don't you think?" "Yeah" Turner said back not really knowing what to say. He was still digesting everything that had just happened and it wasn't quite settling. "Well forget him" she said. "You wanna go get something to eat?" And that question took Turner by surprise and made him feel a bit silly. There he was worried that his long time friend was going to beat him up when all she wanted to do was go get some dinner. Turner accepted Lynn's offer and they ended up going to a nearby T.G.I. Friday's to get some food and drinks. Lynn got the chicken strips and Turner got a big flat iron steak. Each of them got a big Bud Light. Once they got there Turner quickly felt comfortable and was no longer bothered by all of the humiliation that Lynn had caused him earlier. They ate, drank, and had some great conversation. Turner had hung out with Lynn plenty over all of the years that they knew each other but it was actually very rare that he and Lynn hung out alone together without Adam being around. The way they had always operated was pretty much that they would do things together all three of them or they wouldn't do anything together at all. Now that Turner was hanging out alone with Lynn and the conversation and the jokes were flowing so smoothly he realized how much he really liked her. As cool as she was and as great as she was to hang around with, Turner still couldn't forget how she had just physically dominated him earlier that day. But he actually thought it was kind of neat. Here was this cute girl that he got along with great, that he was having a great time with. She was also much stronger than he was and was vastly superior to him in physical strength. But with Lynn it wasn't a matter of who is stronger is better like Turner often felt with most of the guys he was friends with. She didn't have that male ego so it didn't matter that she was stronger than him, not at all. The more they talked the more Turner began craving to be with Lynn. The combination of her coolness, her hotness, and her ability to dominate and protect him was intriguing him more and more by the second and he thought that if he could have her he would never ask for anything else of the world. As they talked some more and she seemed to be enjoying herself as much as he was, Turner wondered if Lynn felt the same way. He really hoped so. The thought of being held tight by the tight arms of this small, cute girl was just something absolutely amazing that he wanted more than anything. They continued to talk and laugh and Turner enjoyed the meal more than any meal he ever had. They had both rode together to the restaurant in Turner's car so he drove Lynn back to Adam's house to drop her off at her car. As he pulled up to Adam's house he wondered what would happen when it was time to say goodbye. He wondered if he should try and kiss her. He really wanted to and thought that she would be receptive to it but if she was not receptive to it he thought that that would certainly damage their long time friendship. Still, he really wanted to give her a kiss on the lips of her cute face. Once again, Turner's thinking was interrupted by Lynn's talking. "So we're doing the Bears game at my place tomorrow, right?" Lynn asked as she got ready to get out of the car. All three of them were big Chicago Bears fans and they always took turns at whose place to watch the game at. "Hopefully, Adam will be out of his snit by then so he'll join us" she added and that was the dagger. Turner was really hoping that since the two of them enjoyed themselves so much at the restaurant so much that they could potentially spend more time alone together but based on what Lynn said it didn't look like that was going to happen. "Yeah, hopefully" Turner said trying not to sound disappointed. The two gave each other a hug and Lynn left the car. That night as he lay in bed Turner could not stop thinking about Lynn. He wanted to stop thinking about her and he tried real hard to. He felt sure that the feelings that he had were not shared by her but they were still feelings and he couldn't help but feel them. Instead of trying to fight them he eventually just laid there thinking about Lynn and he happily feel into a nice peaceful sleep. The next day Turner pulled up to Lynn's apartment for the Bears game. He had his Bears jersey on and was in uniform ready for the game. Adam and Lynn had Bears jerseys as well and all three of them always made sure to get suited up for game day. Turner got out of his car and knocked on Lynn's front door and she yelled for him to come in. He walked inside and sat on the couch. Lynn was not in the living room and Adam appeared to have not arrived yet. Lynn then walked into the living room. She was not wearing her Bears jersey like she had for every other game. Instead she was wearing a pajama tank top, cute pajama pants with penguins on them, and cute blue socks with appeared to have little pictures of bananas on them. She looked so incredibly cute in her little pajama outfit. "When's Adam getting here?" Turner asked as Lynn sat in front of her TV playing with it. "He bitched out and he's not coming" Lynn said back. "I think he's still pissed off about yesterday." Now Turner found himself excited again. Adam was not going to be showing up. They were going to be alone together all day. Was this a good sign? Turner had his hopes up. "Are you serious?" Turner asked. "I can't believe he is being such a baby about it still." "Yeah, well it's OK" Lynn said and she stood up and started walking towards the couch that Turner was sitting on. "I think it's good that we get to hang out alone together today." After saying that, Lynn sat on the couch right next to him. He felt the great feeling chills go through his body again. There they were - Turner and the girl he had been thinking and dreaming about all night, sitting on her warm couch together with no one else there and no possible interruptions. "It's kind of interesting when you think about it" Lynn said and she poked his thigh with her toes then gave him a smile that looked a bit mischievous that made him a little nervous. "What?" he asked not having any idea what she was talking about. "You know" she continued. "You and I are all alone here. We both know that I am a lot stronger than you are. I could do anything I wanted to you right now and there would be nothing you could do about it." When Lynn started talking about them all alone Turner had his hopes up but once he comprehended what she was talking about he tried to back away from her. Before he could she took her leg and wrapped it around Turner's leg like it was a snake coiled around a tree. Turner was immediately reminded how strong her leg was once she did so. Turner didn't know what to say so he didn't say anything. Lynn picked up the TV remote control which was sitting on the coffee table and she changed the channel from the football game. "I don't think I want to watch football today" Lynn said. "I think I want to watch a couple of Lifetime movies instead." Turner was glad she said that because she was scaring him and now he had a reason to excuse himself. "Well I want to watch the Bears game" Turner said a bit nervously. "So if you are going to watch Lifetime movies I think I am going to leave." Turner started to get up and Lynn tightened her leg around his and he realized that he was not getting up. It felt like a steel chain was wrapped around his leg and tied to the floor just holding him there helplessly. "Um, I don't think so" Lynn said with another big smile. "You came over as a guest to my apartment and now you think you're just going to leave like that? I've watched football with you guys every Sunday we've hung out since I've known you. I let you guys bully me into it because you were the guys but now that I realize I'm tougher than you, we are going to do some girly stuff for once as opposed to football. We'll watch a couple of Lifetime movies. We'll paint our toenails all nice. We'll even both try on some lingerie and see how we both look." Turner really wished that Lynn's leg was not tightly wrapped around his because he wanted nothing more than to get away at that point. He started to feel like he was in a nightmare the more that she talked about what she wanted to do. "Are you crazy?" he snapped back at her. "That's girls stuff I'm not going to do all that!" Lynn tightened her leg tighter around Turner's and he whined a little bit. "Oh, it's girls stuff?" she asked. "And watching football is not guys stuff? I was always OK with that." She tightened her leg some more. "You liked watching the football" he pleaded back. "I don't like all the things that you want to do." "I liked it because you guys liked it" she said. "I've never once watched a football game on my own. I was just being a good friend." "OK fine" Turner whined back. "I'll watch the Lifetime movies with you since you watched the football games with us. But I'm not painting my toenails and putting on lingerie. We never had you dress up in guys stuff." Lynn got an angry look on her face and she tightened her leg and twisted it so hard that Turner immediately screamed and he started crying. He couldn't believe that Lynn had hurt him badly enough to make him cry. As the tears rolled down his face he randomly thought how angry he was that Adam didn't show up and that he was left alone to endure this. "I put a fucking football jersey on every week" she yelled back. "You telling me that's not guys clothes? You guys always want us girls to put a football jersey on to support the team when a game is on but God forbid we ever ask you to dress up in what we want to wear. Well, that's going to change today. I've worn a football jersey and watched football with you every Sunday for over a decade now. I think you can spend one Sunday doing what I want to do and wearing what I want to wear. Do you have a problem with that?" She then tightened her leg just a bit tighter to cause such pain that as much as Turner dreaded what she had in store for him the pain was too unbearable for him to disagree with her. "No, that's fine" he gasped and Lynn let go of his leg. Even though she had let go she had still hurt his leg significantly. Lynn flipped the station to the Lifetime network and some stupid movie was on. Turner felt incredibly dumb for being so excited at the thought of hanging out alone with Lynn. He had a long, humiliating, unpleasant day ahead of him. This story will be continued for members of my fan club only.
