South County By A.J. Brown A new employee ignores advice to avoid a coworker – and he pays dearly for it **Note to my readers: I write Custom Stories for those that enjoy my work that would like a personal story written for them.

"Nice to meet you," Joyce said to Roman and she offered him her hand to shake. If the other women that worked there looked like Joyce did then Roman was definitely going to like that. This woman was absolutely beautiful. She looked to be in her late twenties with tan skin and dark hair that was well taken care of. She wore a beige dress so he was able to see her well-defined legs and she wore open toed shoes that showed off her sexy feet. "Come on," Tom said to Roman. "I still have to show you around a lot more." Tom led him around the big building some more and after meeting Joyce, Roman was now focused on checking out the women. There were plenty of other good looking ones there and the ones that Tom introduced him to were just as friendly as Joyce was. Roman was a 30-year-old guy and since he was still single, he was definitely checking out the women situation wherever he was. "I'll take you over to our admin department next," Tom said. "Most of them are alright. The office manager, Lacey, is pretty good. She's from South County but don't hold that against her. She's really good at what she does. Only downside is that she referred in her friend, Annie, who's also from South County. She drives everyone nuts." Where Roman was from, there was North County and there was South County. Those weren't the actual names of the counties but as far as anyone that lived in them was concerned the Northern County was called 'North County' and the Southern County was called 'South County'. And the two counties were completely different worlds. North County was the people that had all of the good jobs and the money. A lot of them were snobby but they were all very well dressed and they drove nice cars. North County people saw South County people as beneath them. There was far less money down there and the people didn't take as good care of themselves. On a Saturday summer night in North County you'd probably go sit out on the deck of a nice bar, dressed up nice, drinking a beer that cost you seven dollars or a glass of wine that cost you ten dollars. On a Saturday summer night in South County you'd probably be drinking cheap beer out of a keg in the woods with a bunch of people in shorts and ripped t-shirts out by a bonfire. "Be polite to Annie now when you meet her obviously," Tom continued. "But if you're trying to work and she starts talking to you, don't be afraid to do whatever you have to do to end the conversation as soon as possible. She loves to talk the sales guys' ears off about whose birthday it is or any other time wasting conversations, while they're trying to make money." "Hey Tom," one of the ladies said when he led Roman into the area where there admin people were. "Good morning, Lacey," Tom said. "This is our new salesperson, Roman." "Hi, nice to meet you," Lacey said. She stood up and shook Roman's hand with a firm grip. She was personable but just by looking at her Roman would have been able to tell that she was from South County. She was dressed reasonably professionally with a black dressy shirt and tight grey pants. She was a petite woman, looking like she was in her mid-thirties. She had red frizzy hair, lots of freckles, and pale skin. Her skin was very dry looking too - the girl was ugly. Tom proceeded to introduce Roman to the rest of the admin staff who all happened to be female. They all seemed nice enough with some of them being good looking and others not being as pleasant to look at. Tom led Roman to another woman who was typing something on her computer. "Annie, this is our new salesperson, Roman," Tom said. Annie turned around and looked at the two guys like she was a bit startled. She had brown hair that was somewhat short but not too short but it looked messy. She certainly dressed like someone from South County would dress at work - she was dressed down with a long-sleeved red and grey shirt with thick stripes, khaki pants, and a pair of sneakers. She looked to be in her early thirties. Annie's face was somewhat pretty but definitely not too pretty and she looked like she had a couple of crooked teeth. She was definitely much less attractive than some of the women that Roman had met at this job, like Joyce. Annie was a lot more attractive than Lacey was, though, and down in South County she was probably considered a beauty queen. "Oh hi, nice to meet you," Annie said. She spoke rather quickly and she looked startled like she had been interrupted. Although Tom had said she didn't work very hard, she seemed focused on whatever it was she was doing and looked like she wanted to get back to work. "Alright, let's go," Tom said to Roman before Roman could say anything back or even shake her hand. Roman followed Tom away and he thought that he had been a bit rude to Annie, regardless of what he thought of her. He, of course, wasn't going to say anything, though. Once Roman had been introduced to everyone, Tom showed him to his desk and gave him some links to watch about the policies of the company and their sales processes. That got boring pretty quickly and he hoped that at some point he'd be able to do something else but he didn't see Tom for the rest of the day. Roman arrived at work the next morning and when he went to his desk he hoped that he'd see Tom soon so he could get some direction on what he wanted him to be doing. Instead he had a note on his desk from Tom saying he'd be late and he gave Tom some literature to go through. There was definitely plenty for him to read but he definitely would have preferred that Tom hadn't left him on his own like that on just his second day. If nothing else, he would have liked to have Tom there just to show him around a bit more as he still didn't really feel like he knew anyone. But instead he sat there alone at his desk and started to read. "Hey, how are you doing?" he heard a female voice say which startled him a bit. It was also a ditzy sounding voice and he looked up to see Annie standing there. She was dressed down again as she had a long-sleeved beige shirt on and she was so dressed down that she was wearing a pair of jeans. Roman could see why people didn't respect her if that was the way she dressed at work. She also wore a pair of boots and she was holding a full bagel on a plate. "I'm good, how are you?" Roman said and as the new guy he was still going to be polite to everyone. "Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to you more when I met you yesterday," she said with her ditzy voice. "I was just busy with what I was doing when you came by." "No problem," he said and what she told him was contrary to what Tom's implication that she didn't work very hard. "So I know all Tom cares about is the salespeople making sales so I'll just tell you some of the things that I'm sure he didn't," she said. "The kitchen is right over there. We have a coffee maker in there and the refrigerator is in there too. They don't let us keep any medicine in there or anything but if you ever need any ibuprofen, I always keep it in my desk. I keep that drawer locked so just ask me. We get bagels every Tuesday and have those in the kitchen. I brought this one over for you." "No thanks," he said and now was starting to see what Tom was saying about her occupying herself with things other than work. He easily could have gotten a bagel himself if he wanted one. "Alright," she said like she didn't mind that he refused her offer. "If you need anything just let me know." She smiled at him, ripped off a piece of the bagel, and put it in her mouth. She walked away and she even looked a bit ditzy just from the way she walked, her shoulders and ass shaking a bit as she did. The jeans that she had on were tight and he had to admit that even though she didn't look anywhere near as good as a lot of the women there, she did have a great ass. It was a pretty long and boring day for Roman. He heard nothing from Tom, not even a call or an email, and no one else came up to talk to him either. Tom had acted like Annie was bothersome but Roman was just glad that she actually came to chat with him. The day couldn't have gone slower and he was glad when it finally ended. Tom got into work the next day and decided he was going to be a bit more proactive to be social. He couldn't just sit at his desk all day like he did the day before, that was for sure. The first person he saw as he was walking to his desk was Joyce. She was wearing a grey professional looking tank-top with a short grey skirt and she just looked incredible. "Good morning Joyce!" he said to her with a confident smile. She smiled but looked right by him like he wasn't even there. "Good morning Keith," she said with a sexy and flirting smile. Roman turned around to see one of the other managers, Keith, standing there. They met briefly on Roman's first day and Roman could tell right away that Keith was just a cocky guy. The Lexus that he drove suggested that he had plenty of money as well. The fact that Joyce completely ignored Roman to just say hi to the guy with the money and the high position really annoyed him. "Joyce, how are you dear?" Keith said. Roman looked at the two of them talking and it was a frustrating thing to watch. It was clear that Keith was just talking to her because she was hot and she was just talking to him because he was high on the chain. Roman walked to his desk, still not getting any acknowledgement from the woman he said 'hi' to. "Roman, how ya doing, buddy?" Tom said after Roman had been sitting at his desk for close to twenty minutes wondering if he was going to show up. "Sorry I wasn't in yesterday. You make out OK?" "Yeah," Roman said and he was just glad that he figured he'd finally get to do something else. "No problem at all." "Good," Tom said and he kept his hand on Roman's desk but looked to the side like he had other things on his mind, possibly checking out one of the many hot women that worked there. "Why don't you just keep doing that this morning and I'll check back with you before lunch?" Roman wanted to object to that. He had sat at his desk the entire day the day before just looking at that material over and over and didn't want to do it anymore. But Tom just took off before Roman could even open his mouth to say anything. It was his third day of work and he was already getting impatient. "Hey, how was your night?" he heard a recognizable ditzy voice say when he was looking down at his desk. He looked up to see Annie standing there and she was dressed quite casually once again. She had a pink button-up long sleeved shirt on that was almost unbuttoned enough on the top to show off some cleavage. She wore a pair of jeans on and was actually wearing flip flops. Her toenails were painted a shiny light blue. It seemed the dress code there wasn't too strict of since it was Annie, no one really cared enough to bother saying anything. "Good," he said and he was glad that someone finally actually seemed like they wanted to talk to him. "Pretty uneventful and I just relaxed, but those are the best nights sometimes. How was yours?" "I just played with my dog most of the night," she said. "Took him to the park and played fetch with him with the tennis ball. It's his favorite game. Then I took him running for a couple of miles." She went on rambling for a while about her dog and then about some stuff that she had watched on TV the night before. Roman supposed he could see how she'd be annoying to someone who had a lot of work they had to get done. But since he felt like he barely had anything significant to do and no one else really seemed interested in him, he appreciated talking to her, even if she was the one doing all of the talking. He just sat there and listened and she probably talked to him for close to twenty minutes before she left. The rest of the day at work was another boring one for Roman and Tom didn't stop by for the rest of the day so he just kept looking at the same stuff. The next morning Annie approached Roman again almost immediately when he got there. She proceeded to talk his ear off some more with her ditzy voice. And he enjoyed listening to her. She talked to him more about herself, talking more about her dog, but also about the fact that she really enjoyed running. He was impressed that she liked running since he figured most of the women from South County just liked to sit around, smoke cigarettes, watch TV, and have sex with ugly guys. "Alright Annie, my salesman has work he has to do," Tom then came along and said and Annie walked immediately like she thought she was in trouble. "Roman, I'm going to have you shadow one of our top sales reps today. His name is Bill and he's good - you'll learn a lot from him." So Roman spent most of the day sitting at Bill's desk and listening to him make sales calls. Bill was barely paying attention to Roman and he was giving him the impression that he wished he wasn't there. Roman thought Bill sounded fake on the phone but the people seemed to be buying into it. Roman wasn't sure he could act like that to make a sale. The next morning Annie greeted Roman again at his desk. She talked to him about the roast that she had cooked the night before and even though it was definitely not the most exciting thing to listen to, he liked listening to her talk. He let her say her thing but this time she left long before Tom got to his desk. Tom finally gave him some lists of people he could call to make sales and he had learned enough from watching Bill the day before that he felt like he had learned enough where he could start making the calls. It made the morning go by much quicker. When he returned from lunch, he ran into Lacey. "Hey there," Lacey said to him. "Sorry I haven't been able to really come over and check in on you this week. It's just been a crazy week for me. Everything going OK?" "Yup," he said and he was glad that she asked. "So far so good." "And I also wanted to say, thanks for making a friend with Annie," she said. "All of the other sales guys just blow her off and they aren't very respectful to her. But you've been very polite to her and I appreciate that. She said she feels like she had a connection with you." Lacey walked away and Roman was happy about what he heard. He was on the lookout for women when he took the job but it was the women like Joyce that he was thinking about. Annie wasn't someone he would have even considered dating because of how ditzy she was and how she was seen as the annoying one of the office. And a guy from North County dating a girl from South County just didn't happen. But when he thought about it he wondered why it couldn't happen. Annie wasn't the best looking girl out there but she was pretty good looking, even if she didn't present herself the way a North County female did. He liked talking to her and if she felt a connection with him, why not try and see if that connection could be more? The end of the day came and he decided he was going to ask her out to dinner. He saw her leaving at the end of the day so he followed her out to her car. He didn't know why he was nervous about asking out a low paid woman that wasn't respected at work but he was. "Annie!" he called to her and she turned around and looked at him confidently. "Hey, what's up," she said and a part of him felt like she knew he was going to ask her out. "What you u-up to?" he said and he couldn't believe that he stuttered. "Going home to play with your dog?" "Heh-heh-heh," she chuckled and the way she laughed made him feel like he had asked a silly question. "I guess. Don't have much going on tonight." "Feel like going out to dinner?" he said and he was glad that he was able to get the words out without stuttering. "My treat." "Sure!" she said and he liked how enthusiastic she sounded. "I definitely am not going to turn down a free dinner." That made him feel a bit less good about it. It made him feel like she only accepted the offer so she could get a free meal. Perhaps she was just being humorous. "Any preference on where you'd like to go?" he asked. "Wow, you're buying me dinner and I get to pick?" she said. "I'm a lucky gal. Let's just go to the Ruby Tuesday's down the road. Simple enough. I'll follow you down there." They both walked to their cars which apparently were parked close since they were walking right next to each other. Annie pulled off the long-sleeved shirt that she had on and definitely got Roman's attention when she did that. All she had on underneath the shirt was a white tank-top that was so tight and skimpy that it looked like it could have been considered underwear. It had no sleeves at all and it was extremely tight on her. It covered most of her belly, including her belly button, but it didn't go all the way down to the waistband of her jeans so he could see a little bit of skin. It was extremely tight on her boobs too and if not for the fact that the shirt was thicker over her boobs he was certain he would have been able to see her nipples through it. Her boobs really weren't that big but they were very firm and perky. But what stuck out to Roman more than anything was her muscles. She wasn't overly muscular or anything but she definitely had a lot of muscle tone for a woman that stood at about 5'7 and probably weighed about 140 pounds. She had defined triceps and her biceps looked defined and even kind of big. The shirt showed off her back a bit and she actually had quite a bit of muscle in her back. Roman had a long-sleeved shirt on and he was glad. He was 6'1 and weighed 170 pounds but he was skinny and didn't have the kind of muscle definition she did. "See you there," she said as she opened the door to her grey Ford Escort and got in. Once they were seated inside the restaurant Annie still only wore that tight white tank-top up top. He looked at the muscles in her arms and saw them flex every time she moved them when she was looking at the menu. Her bicep really looked strong when she would take a sip of her water. "So what are you thinking you want to get?" she said. "Not sure," he said and he was going to choose something that didn't make him seem like a slob or anything over whatever he might actually want. "A couple of these salads are looking good." "I'm liking how a couple of these burgers look," she said. She looked at the menu some more and talked a little bit. He learned that Annie was 32-years-old. But she was much quieter than she was in the office. She didn't seem shy or anything but she just looked more comfortable and like she didn't feel the need to always be talking. Roman supposed it made sense that she would feel more comfortable now that she wasn't in an environment where a lot of the people didn't like her. "So tell me more about you," she said and it was the first time he thought that she actually asked him about himself. "You got a girlfriend?" "Nah, not right now," he said and he hoped that was her just inquiring because of her own interests. "Really?" she said and she at least acted like she was surprised. "You're a good looking guy. You must be saving yourself for someone good." "Just so busy with work," he said pretty awkwardly and it was an awkward response considering she knew he had just started his job. "You're pretty good looking yourself. I gotta say, you are in excellent shape." He didn't want to ask if she had a boyfriend since he thought it would sound cheesy asking that right after she did. He assumed that she didn't - she probably wouldn't have gone out to dinner with another guy if she had one and she talked enough at work where he was sure she would have mentioned him. "Oh yeah," she said and she looked at her muscles in a confident way but she didn't seem like she was acting cocky. "I work out a lot. I run all of the time but I lift some weights too. And I do kickboxing." "Really?" he said looking surprised and she looked like there shouldn't be anything to be surprised about. "Like aerobic kickboxing?" "Heh-heh," she laughed with her ditzy laugh. "You make it sound like it's just some endurance class or something. It is aerobic but we hit the bags hard and we spar with each other." "Wow," he said and as he looked at her defined muscles and thought about her sparring with other women that looked like that, it really intrigued him. "You're a fighter then?" "Gotta be if you live in South County," she said with a smirk on her face. "Won't survive down there otherwise." "Damn," he said and he was intrigued. "I'd like to see you fight sometime." He chuckled. Normally he would have looked down at a girl from South County saying that she got in fights a lot. Would have made him glad that he didn't live down there. But there was something about her saying it that made it seem kind of cool. He just liked learning about her. "I'm sure it will happen again sometime in the future," she said and just thinking about living like that was definitely different than the way things were in North County. "I can let you know if you really want to see it." "So you're pretty tough?" he said and then he was embarrassed asking that question thinking that it was repetitive. "Oh yeah," she said confidently. Her confidence about it intrigued him even more. "You think there are any guys you can take in a fight?" he said. He thought that was another stupid thing to ask and he blushed a bit for asking it. "Down in South County, no," she said. "Guys down there are tough. I couldn't beat up any of them." "How about in North County?" he said. He thought about her beating up a guy like Tom and how cool that would be. Tom walked around that office thinking he was so much better than Annie was. Would be perfect if she kicked his ass and put him in his place. "Yeah plenty of North County guys," she said and she spoke like she thought they were wimps. "Like I could take you." That was not the response that he was expecting and he didn't appreciate it. He was thin and had never really been in a fight in his adult life. But that didn't mean that he couldn't beat up some ditzy girl if he really had to. It was funny thinking about her beating up Tom but not so much thinking about her beating up him. "Yeah, I don't think so," he said and he obviously couldn't just let her go on thinking that. "Heh-heh," she chuckled like she wasn't taking what he said seriously. "You think you could take me? After dinner we should go fight in the parking lot and see." "Are you two ready to order?" the waitress then said when Annie and Roman were staring at each other before Roman could respond to what Annie said. Annie responded to the waitress and getting to order her food seemed to immediately take her mind off her suggestion to go fight him in the parking lot. Roman was glad because he certainly was uncomfortable about answering that question. He figured she was joking but he also thought the word 'fight' was a strong word. They waited for their food and had their meal without any further talk about how tough Annie was. Although Roman couldn't help but continue to discreetly check out her muscles when she would take a drink or move her fork or knife. They just looked so impressive. The check came and he immediately grabbed it. She had a look on her face like she had no problem accepting the free dinner whatsoever. She didn't thank him when he grabbed the check. He figured she still had time to do so but he would have appreciated a 'thank you' by that point. "Ready to go?" she said once everything was all paid. They walked out to the parking lot and now he was a bit nervous. How should he end this? Should he go for a kiss? It was only one date and he supposed it might not even be considered a date. He didn't want things to be awkward at work the next day but there was always that chance that she'd think he was weird if he didn't try and that might blow it too. "Alright," she said and he thought he may have missed his chance. "So are we going to fight?" He had forgotten about that - he had completely forgotten about that. She clearly hadn't. "You were serious about that?" he said. "Um, yeah I was serious," she said and even though she sounded like she was joking around, she also had a competitive tone in her voice. "You said in there you think you can take me so I'm gonna make you back that up. Come on - ready?" She gave him a shove in the shoulder that was somewhat playful and somewhat hard. "I mean," he said and he looked real uncomfortable while she looked like she was ready to brawl. Damn South County girls. What the hell was the matter with her? This was ridiculous. "I don't want to just fight you - that's a little violent." "Fine, we'll do a slap fight," she said, still looking amped and ready. "Instead of throwing a punch we'll just throw a slap so no one gets hurt. But we'll see who's tougher." "That's still going to look pretty weird to anyone that's walking by in the parking lot here." "Alright, let's go over to the side of the building behind where those trees are. No one'll see us there. Come on, I'm not letting you wimp out from this. You said you can take me, let's see what you got." Normally Roman would have still been hesitant about hitting a female, even in a playful type scenario. But the way that she was taunting him and the look that she was giving him made him feel like he'd be a real pussy if he didn't. He went in and tried to slap her in the face but she easily blocked it. She looked proud of it, looked focused and she looked like she thought he was a wimp. He went in and tried to slap her in the face again. She easily used her forearm to block his forearm and make sure that he couldn't get close. That block hurt his forearm but it didn't look like it hurt her at all. "Come on," she said with more enthusiasm and she looked like she was really starting to get energized. "You gonna hit me or what?" He went in to try and hit her again and she backed away so quickly that she barely had to block it. She attacked which he completely was not expecting since she hadn't yet. She went right in and slapped him in the face, far quicker than he was able to get a block up. She backed up then went in and easily slapped him in the face again. The slaps were starting to hurt. She backed up with a smirk on her face like she was really enjoying the fact that she was winning so far. He put his hands up by his face thinking there was going to be another attack but she didn't. She stood back a bit with her hands up looking like she was toying with him. He tried to slap her in the face again, she blocked it easily, and then slapped him in the face harder. He tried to slap her but this time she didn't even need to block it. She was quicker and she slapped him first which hurt more and caused him to back off before he could complete the strike. She slapped him a couple of more times in the face seeing that he wasn't quick enough to block them. She kept slapping him before he could get up a block or hit her back. She was now doing it more rapidly and he was bending down just trying to defend himself. He was getting bitch slapped by this ditzy chick from South County and there was nothing he could do about it. His eyes were also watering up. Every additional slap hurt more and more and he was getting more and more frustrated the more she hit him without him being able to block it. He was bent down in a completely defensive position just trying to protect his face. But she was far too skilled for him and she just kept slapping his face, over and over, each one stinging more than the last. He then felt like he was about to cry. "OK, OK!" he said, putting his hand up in surrender and he started to cry a bit when he said it. "I give!" He stayed in the same position, afraid that Annie was going to keep hitting him. When he realize that she wasn't, he looked up to see that she had respectfully backed off. She had a smile on her face like she was proud of her victory but she also looked like she wasn't surprised. He was completely humbled. This was some ditzy woman that made a lot less money than him from South County that everyone in the office thought was a dummy. But despite anything else about her, she could beat him up, and at that very moment it felt like she was better than him. "That was fun," she said and she sounded friendly and not arrogant at all about the fact that she had just kicked his ass. "You're a cool guy." "Thanks," he said and he could feel himself blushing. "You're pretty tough." "Yeah, I know," she said. "It's the way you gotta be down in South County, though. I actually gotta get going, though. You want to walk me to my car?" They started walking back to their cars and Roman wasn't sure what he should do. Should he ask for her phone number when he knew he'd see her the next day anyway? Should he try and kiss her? He felt like he should although he figured if she didn't reciprocate that would be awkward the next day at work. It might be a bit too soon for that anyway. But he watched her walking confidently. He respected her far more than he ever thought he would now that he knew how tough she was. He supposed that's what happens after someone beats a person up and is respectful about it afterwards. All of that really made him feel really attracted to her. "Alright, well I'll see you at work tomorrow," she said and she gave him a big, tight hug. "Thanks again for dinner." She turned around and walked away before he would have had a chance to kiss her so at least she made that easier for him. Although he was a bit disappointed considering he wouldn't have minded a kiss. Still, there was plenty of time. She liked to talk to him in the mornings anyway so he figured there would be more opportunity for things to progress. But then the next morning she did not go up and talk to him. He was hoping she would after their dinner and he actually liked their morning conversations. It made him think that maybe she wasn't interested in him like he thought she might be. He supposed it made sense that a woman wouldn't want to date a guy she knew she could beat up. He still missed talking to her as the day passed. He didn't really have any other friends at work so it was nice chatting with her. He only saw her at one point and she was involved in a conversation with Lacey about something work-related so she didn't even really notice him. At the end of the day he was at his desk and getting ready for the weekend. He didn't know what he was going to do that weekend. There wasn't much to do and he really would have liked to go out to dinner or do something with Annie. So when he saw her walking over to his desk with a smile on his face that made him happy. "Hey there," she said with her ditzy, but friendly voice. "What's up," he said. "How was your day?" "Ah, you know," she said and she sounded like she didn't want to talk about work. "Got any plans after work?" "No," he said and he shrugged. "Feel like getting a drink or something?" "Nah, I can't do that," she said. "I was going to say, if you still want to see me fight, you can tonight if you want if you feel like coming down to South County." That certainly wasn't what he was expecting to hear. He had said that he wanted to see her fight and he meant it - but he didn't think that would actually happen and definitely not so soon. He wasn't expecting that offer but he was intrigued. He could even feel himself getting a bit worked up just thinking about it. "Yeah, sure," he said. "Who are you going to fight?" "Some brat that has been talking all sorts of shit about me," she said and he tried his best not to chuckle about how different people from South County were than people from North County. "She's 23-years-old and she does not know how to shut her mouth - so I'm going to teach her to." This just seemed too good. After a tough week of work, Roman could use some kind of entertainment like that. He just imagined some trashy chick from South County that probably never went to college and had been mooching off her parents, talking shit about her elders since she was disrespectful and had nothing better to do. And he would love to watch Annie put her in her place. "Sounds good to me," he said. "When are you doing this? Like are you going down there right now?" "I'm meeting the slut at seven so we got some time to kill before that," Annie said. "But just come down there with me now. I can show you around South County a bit beforehand. You ever hung out down there?" He had driven through South County when he was going places further south than South County. But he had certainly never hung out down there. The longest amount of time he had ever spent in South County was filling his gas tank. And just looking at the people around him in that small amount of time made him want to get out of there as soon as possible. "Nah, I've never hung out there or anything," he said. "Oh it's fun," she said. "I gotta show you some of the cool things down there. Some people from North County just think it's a crummy place but they've never even given it a chance. I'll show you some of the cool sights. Then after that I'll beat that bitch's ass then we can go get a drink at the bar if you're up for it." That definitely sounded like a good agenda to Roman. He was definitely interested in watching Annie fight. But the drink afterwards sounded good too. It was probably a good 30 - 40 minute drive from his place to South County, depending on exactly where they were going. So if they were going to get a drink, maybe that would turn into a couple of more - and then it would only make sense if he stayed at her place. "Sounds good," he said trying not to sound too excited. She looked pleased about him accepting her offer. He got in the car and followed her down there. As he followed her Ford Escort down there he thought got more and more excited. Something about watching her beat someone up was really exciting and it seemed like it would make the sex more exciting - if it got to that point of course - but he had a good feeling for some reason. The drive went by pretty fast and he knew it once they got into South County. First they drove through some farmland for a few minutes and then when they got into town it definitely looked different than North County - he had forgotten how different. The buildings looked beat up and the people looked much different. A lot of the ladies he noticed had crooked teeth and some of the guys were missing teeth. Most of the guys had facial hair and a lot of them looked like they didn't even trim it. Women that shouldn't have been wearing slutty clothes were wearing slutty clothes. Guys wore tank-tops and ripped t-shirts. Lots of the people looked overweight. Annie was extremely hot compared to any of the other women he had seen. Annie pulled her car into one looked to be a public parking lot and then parked it. He didn't understand why they were parking there and not at her house or her apartment. There was a crowd of guys and ladies hanging out in the parking lot smoking cigarettes and when they spotted him pulling in, in his silver Nissan Altima that he just had washed two days earlier, they all looked in his direction. They looked like they thought he didn't belong there. He parked, Annie got out of her car, and he got out of his. He ignored the South County locals that were looking at him and he walked over in Annie's direction. She just smiled and looked like she didn't notice the people looking at him. The look on her face was a ditzy one and it looked like she may have been a bit naive to it. "Why are we parking here?" he asked her and even though he wasn't looking at the crowd of locals, he could sense that they were all looking at him. "Can't we park at your place?" "Nah, I live with my parents," she said with her ditzy voice and he couldn't believe that he was hearing that. "I don't need them asking me all sorts of questions on who the guy is that's parking there." Right there he started to think that he made the wrong decision by going down there. She was seriously 32-years-old and she lived with her parents? He kept forgetting that there were a lot of differences between the people in North and South County, ones that he wouldn't even have thought of. He still wanted to see her fight but that idea of him staying over with her had gone out the window. "Come on," she said with her ditzy voice. "Let's go." She showed him all around South County and after getting over being uncomfortable about it to begin with and annoyed that he had made the drive down there, he quickly started to enjoy the little tour. It was definitely different than North County but sometimes it was nice to see something that was a little bit different. She took him into an art store and introduced him to a nice old man that was working there. She took him to a little stream that was actually very pretty. She walked by a bar which she called her favorite bar - it was a dive bar that he never would have gone to. She talked in great detail about the art store, the stream, and the bar and told him stories about all three. Just like at work, even though the stuff she spoke about wasn't very interesting, he just liked hearing her talk. "Is it almost time for this fight?" he spoke up when it was about time and he was surprised that she seemed to be losing track of the time. "Oh yeah," she said when she looked at the time on her phone and looked surprised. "Yeah, we gotta get going. I'll sure look like a wimp if I'm late for this. We'll just go in my car." "It's OK if I just leave mine here?" he said and he wasn't sure he liked that idea. "Oh yeah," Annie said like he'd be dumb not to. "You can leave it there as long as you want. They don't care about that kind of stuff down here." He got in her little Ford Escort and they started to drive away. He was still excited to watch the fight although a part of him was getting a bit nervous since he didn't know exactly what to expect. As she drove more she was driving further away from town. She drove them through some farmland again although it wasn't the way they drove in - it was further south. And as she drove more he started to get bit of an eerie feeling passing through his body. "So what exactly was this girl saying about you that is making you want to fight her?" he said. "Oh yeah," Annie said like she felt like she should have told him sooner. "So I was hanging out with this guy - he was my dream guy. Totally hot, funny guy. He makes good money too so he could have taken good care of me like I want. This bitch, Holly, totally knew I was dating him and in love with him. Then she swoops right in and fucks him. He just goes and starts fucking her and forgot all about me at that point." "But didn't you say she was talking shit about you?" Roman said. "Well I'm sure she was," Annie said and her voice sounded so incredibly ditzy when she said it. "I mean, since she was fucking him I'm sure she was bad mouthing me to him too." Roman felt so incredibly stupid. He had been hanging out with this ditz thinking he'd be able to get with her and he thought they had a connection. But if she had even the slightest amount of interest in him she wouldn't be fighting some 23-year-old chick over some other guy. He felt so pissed off and just wanted to get out of the car. He had no idea where he was, though, so that wasn't an option. Annie drove them further away from where any kind of people were, then she turned on to a long dirt road. "Where exactly are we going?" he asked as he took a look back to see the regular road quickly getting out of sight. "We're going out in the middle of nowhere!" she said excitedly. "Cops down here are cracking down on fights so you really got drive out if you want to fight. Not worth spending the night in jail over." Annie drove them further down the dirt road and that was when the panic really hit Roman. What the hell was he doing? He had no idea what was going to be waiting for them once this drive ended. There was a guy involved that Annie and this Holly girl were fighting over. Was he going to be some huge dude that was there as well? If Annie wanted to fight Holly for being with this guy, maybe the guy was going to want to fight Roman for being with Annie. Or maybe there was going to be a big gang there waiting to jump both of them. Heck, maybe Annie set up the whole thing so just Roman could get jumped. He really didn't know that much about her and maybe that would be some way of hers to get back at Tom for talking shit about her - to jump one of his guys. Roman really started to feel afraid and his right hand was shaking. "So like, who all is going to be out here?" he asked, trying to sound curious and not nervous. "There gonna be like a big crowd?" "Nah, don't worry," she said, making it obvious that she could tell he was nervous. "This is between me and her. She knows that. We don't need a big scene here." "But you're bringing me along," he said. "You're from North County," she said and he didn't know if he should be insulted by that comment. "She's not going to be worried about you - trust me." That dirt road they were driving on sure seemed long but finally after a couple of miles, she pulled up on a big field where he assumed they were going to fight. It was a big field with some woods behind it and Annie pulled up on the grass. Roman saw a beat up red jeep and then he saw three girls standing there. "Ah shit," Annie said as she looked at the girls and she sounded surprised and annoyed but not afraid or anything. "She did bring people." Annie pulled up towards the girls, who were all staring at them, not too close, but close enough where Roman could get a better look at the girls. The one standing kind of in the front had long reddish hair that was kind of curly. She had pale skin and it looked like she had quite a bit of freckles. The reddish hair girl was wearing a t-shirt that looked to be black or a dark blue and looked like it might be the t-shirt of a band or something. She had on extremely short, cut-off tight jean shorts that had large tear in the front on the left thigh. Her legs were thick and she wore a pair of sandals. Roman assumed that she was the one Annie was fighting since she was standing in front, although he couldn't be sure. She didn't look muscular like Annie was but she did look thicker than her, with broader shoulders and thicker legs, and Roman guessed that she probably weighed more than Annie did. Behind her were the two other girls. The one was an extremely fat girl that had to weigh over 300 pounds. The fat girl had short brown hair and a fat face. She wore an extremely tight beige short sleeved shirt. Her boobs were fairly big but her fat tummy was pushing its way out of her tight shirt and it made her boobs look not as big. The shirt was tight to her arms and her upper arms had plenty of flab. She wore tight brown pants and her ass was enormous. And while that girl was huge, the third girl was actually tiny. She was a short girl that looked like she barely weighed 100 pounds. She had dark black hair that was fairly short but not as short as the fat girl's was, wore a black tank-top, short black shorts, black socks, and a pair of Converse sneakers. She had lots of piercings and tattoos. As Annie slowly drove up a bit closer, Roman could see the piercings on this girl a bit better. She had earrings down her left and right ear, had a nose ring, and a lip ring. She had one in her belly button as well which he could see since the tank top she had on didn't cover her tummy. She had a tattoos all over her arms and one that went up the side of her neck. She had on her tummy and one on the top of her left boob. The other part of that tattoo was on the rest of her breast but was covered by her shirt. She had a few on her legs. This girl looked like she actually could have been kind of hot if not for all the tattoos and piercings. "I better park right here," Annie said somewhat softly as she parked a little ways away from the girls instead of driving right up to them. "I don't want those other two bitches messing with my car while I'm fighting." "Which one are you fighting?" Roman asked. "The red haired bitch," Annie said and she sounded like she really hated the girl when she spoke. "Her name is Holly. I think I told you already but she's 23-years-old. I really hate that fucking cunt." "Who are the other two?" Roman said. He asked partly because he didn't want Annie do get overly worked up thinking about Holly and partly because he wanted to know as much as possible about these girls that he never saw before that he was in the middle of nowhere with. "Heavier one is a 25-year-old named Bethany," Annie said, and she was speaking a bit quietly for some reason which Roman didn't quite understand. "One with all of the tattoos is a 22-year-old named Leah. All three of them are a bunch of punks. Come on, let's get out." They got out of the car and Holly smirked like she couldn't wait for this fight. Annie looked serious and something about Holly looked a lot more confident at that moment. Roman remembered how good of a fighter Annie was though and figured she was just being smarter and taking it more seriously. "What'd you bring them along for?" Annie said and now that she was talking to her South County peers she sounded even dumber than she did when she talked at work. "Thought this was supposed to be just me and you." "Don't worry, they're just here to watch me kick your ass," Holly said. "And you brought someone too so what the fuck are you even bitchin' about that for?" "He's a guy I work with," Annie said. "He's from North County so it's not like he knows how to fight or anything. Don't worry about him." "Alright, alright," Holly said and Roman definitely was annoyed that a couple of girls were acting like he was a wimp that didn't matter. "So what's your problem? Why do you want to fight me so bad?" "You know damn well why," Annie said. "What'd you have to fuck Todd for? Why couldn't you stay away from my man?" "He wasn't your man or he wouldn't have fucked me, would he?" Holly said and Roman thought how he kind of agreed with her. "But you got nothing to worry about - I'm not fucking him anymore." "What are you talking about?" Annie said. "I just wanted to fuck him a little bit," Holly said. "That was all I needed out of that guy. I don't even talk to him no more so maybe you could try and get him back - although after fucking me I'm sure he's completely forgotten who you are." The look on Annie's face initially looked angry but then it looked like she was going to cry, while Holly and her friends were laughing. Annie went at Holly and punched her in the face hard. Holly stood her ground after the punch but now she looked pissed off. Annie took a couple of steps back and raised her fists in a fighting position. "Alright, you fucking bitch," Holly said and she kicked off the flip flops she was wearing. "You're fucking dead." Roman thought it was a bit odd that Holly was going t fight barefoot but he supposed that would give her better traction than the flip flops. He looked at her feet and even though she was a pretty trashy girl, she actually took good care of her feet. They were pale and had freckles on them but they looked clean and smooth and her toenails were painted a fresh purple. Annie had on a pair of sneakers which Roman figured to give her another advantage. Holly moved towards Annie and it looked like she might be more of the aggressor. Holly wasn't really in a fighting stance and Roman didn't know whether to take that as Holly being more confident or just not knowing how to fight. Annie looked more focused than Holly did. Holly got closer to Annie and Annie punched her in the face. It was a good punch and it sounded and looked like it hurt. Holly's head snapped back a bit but she took that punch better than Roman knew he would have. Holly put her fists up and Annie moved around a bit. The two moved around a bit more and Annie punched her in the face again. Annie just looked more skilled than Holly and looked like she knew more what she was doing. Holly looked like she was getting angrier after getting punched in the face twice. Roman started getting excited watching Annie winning. He looked at what a brat Holly looked like and he really wanted to see Annie beat her up. Annie punched Holly in the face a third time, with Holly still not quick enough to block it. "Ah, you bitch!" Holly said and she sounded more angry than hurt. Holly then just lunged at Annie aggressively and as good of a fighter that Annie was, she looked intimidated by the thicker girl going at her like that. She got in a very defensive position. Holly yanked the back of Annie's hair and roughly pulled her head down. Annie flailed her arms around but she looked like she didn't know what to do. Holly held Annie's hair tightly with her left hand and then punched her in the face three times with her right hand hard. Although Annie looked like a more skilled fighter, Holly's punches looked like they hurt a bit more. Annie wasn't in a position to defend herself at all and Roman could barely look as Holly punched her a few more times right in her face. Annie let out a loud whine as she tried to pull away but Holly just yanked on her hair harder to keep her there. Holly was punching Annie as many times as she could while Annie just kept trying her best to pull away. Annie finally pulled free and stepped back while Holly stood there with some of Annie's hair still in her fist. Annie stood up with her eyes completely full of water and she looked like she was about to burst out crying. Holly looked quite pleased about what she had done and looked like she really wanted Annie to attack again so they could fight more. Annie looked like she was very reluctant. "Come on, bitch," Holly said, challenging her, and she smiled when she said it although she did sound a bit upset herself, probably from taking the punches she did. "Let's see what else you got?" Annie looked extremely hesitant, which Roman couldn't blame her for after seeing those multiple hard punches she just took, but she also looked like she wasn't backing down. Annie tried to punch Holly in the face but she clearly didn't have the same confidence she had when she started fighting. Holly blocked her punch easily and pushed her arm aside. Annie tried to punch her in the face again and Holly made blocking it look even easier. Annie threw another punch at Holly's face but she put such little on it that all Holly had to do was step back to avoid it. Annie then threw a punch at Holly's stomach. Holly just stood there without moving and Annie had such little confidence in herself at that point that she just stood where she was. Annie's punch ended up not even reaching her stomach. Holly lunged at Annie again and Annie looked so intimidated by her by that point that she just bent down in a completely defensive position. Holly put her in a tight headlock and pulled her head right into her waist. Annie was struggling like crazy trying to get free and Holly was holding her like it was easy. Holly then punched her in the face hard. She held her tightly in the headlock then punched her in the face again - and again. Annie was in no position to protect her face and Holly showed no mercy at all as she continually punched Annie in the face, and she did so hard. Watching Holly beat the shit out of her like that was extremely disturbing for Roman. He wanted to look away but he couldn't. He had thought that he wanted to see a fight but now that he was actually seeing it, he realized that seeing someone getting beaten on so badly, up so close, was an awful thing to watch. Holly then threw Annie on the ground and she landed on her side looking completely shaken up. Holly jumped on her, forced her on her back, and sat on her chest, straddling her. Roman looked at Holly's thick legs so close to Annie's head and observed how dominant Holly looked over her at that moment. Holly punched Annie in the face some more and now Roman thought it had gone too far. Annie was in an even more helpless position than she was when she was in the headlock with her arms pinned down and her face even more wide open as Holly beat on her which made it even more disturbing for Roman to watch. Bethany and Leah were cheering and Roman didn't understand how they could actually be enjoying that - those two didn't even have any personal beef with Annie that he knew of. He watched Annie get beat on some more looking like she could get knocked out. He thought that he should go try and pull Holly off of her. But he knew Annie could beat him up and if Holly was beating Annie up that bad, thinking about what she could do to him made him too afraid to try and help - he felt like such a pussy at that moment. After punching Annie for what seemed like forever, Holly finally slowed down a bit, although she still punched Annie a few more times. She then grabbed Annie's hair and pulled the helpless girl back up to her feet. She held Annie's hair keeping her bent down and she looked at Bethany and Leah with a smile. "Ya done with that cunt?" Leah said. "Nah," Holly said and she breathed heavily making her sound like she was enjoying this beating way too much. "I'm just getting ... ." Annie let out a scream and she pushed on Holly's arm that was holding her. Since Holly was paying more attention to Leah than Annie at that point, Annie was able to push her arm away. Annie got free then immediately turned away from Holly, then sprinted towards her car. "Oh you bitch, get back here!" Holly said. Holly chased after her but she was barefoot so she didn't have a chance of catching the fast Annie when she had sneakers on. Holly couldn't even get close but she kept chasing her anyway, looking like she wanted to try as hard as she could to beat on her some more. But Annie opened her car door, got in, slammed the door, and quickly locked it. Holly still kept chasing after the car as Annie quickly started it and peeled out in the grass. Holly was determined, or maybe she was just stupid, as she kept running after the car but she was obviously not going to catch it. Annie was probably driving 30 miles per hour on the grass and then she drove back onto the dirt road. Roman watched as she sped up the dirt road and kept driving until her car was out of sight. Meanwhile, Roman was still there, in the middle of nowhere in South County, all alone except for these three punk girls. Holly finally had turned around and was walking back towards them, smiling. Roman could feel his heart beating faster and his palms sweating as she got closer. "Shit, I wore flips flops because I knew I could beat that bitch up even in my bare feet," Holly said as she kept walking closer to them. "Didn't even consider that she'd run away from me like that. What a fucking coward." Then she stopped talking and with the complete silence out there, with it starting to get just a little bit dark, Roman could feel the nervousness jabbing away at his stomach. He didn't think these gals were going to be kind enough to drive him back to his car. But even if they just took off right then and left him alone, that wouldn't have been the worst case scenario. Holly then looked at him with a grin that made him think it wasn't going to be that easy. "Well, well, well," Holly said and she looked at the skinny guy up and down like she was checking him out. "What DO we have here?" "Look, I don't want any trouble," he said, trying to sound firm, but knowing that he sounded nervous as anything. "Ha-ha-ha-!" Holly laughed and the laugh almost sounded friendly. "You girls hear that? He said he doesn't want any trouble." "Come down to South County to watch a fight and you say you don't want any trouble?" Leah said. "I thought people from North County were supposed to be smart. You seem pretty stupid to me." "Yeah, but it's all good though," Holly said. "I don't want any trouble either. I just want to know one thing - something I've been wanting to know for a long time. Do the guys in North County really have small cocks?" He wasn't going to answer that and play her stupid game. He remained quiet but she just looked him right in the eyes like she wanted her answer. He wondered if he should just run. Holly was barefoot and he knew fatty wouldn't be able to catch him. But they did have a jeep and he didn't have a vehicle. He also didn't know where he was. He felt pretty embarrassed at the idea of running away from a couple of girls in their early to md-twenties anyway. "You ever fuck a guy from North County before, Leah?" Holly said. "Fuuuuuck, no!" Leah said. "I heard they got small cocks too. I'm not wasting my time if there's even a chance that the guy's gonna have a small cock." "How 'bout you, Bethany?" Holly said. "You ever fuck a guy from North County?" "Of course I have," Bethany said which Roman was not expecting to hear her say. "Ha-ha, that's right, of course you have you little slut," Holly said. "You've fucked someone from everywhere." 'Little' was not a word that Roman would have used to describe Bethany, regardless of the context. He also wouldn't think that she'd be a slut since he couldn't imagine anyone wanting to fuck her - especially not from North County. With all of the hot women up there, he couldn't think of any reason any guy would fuck Bethany. And the rest of the guys would never let any guy hear the end of that one either. But he did know that horny guys could do some desperate things. If she was telling the truth he wondered if he knew the guy she fucked. "So did he gave a small cock?" Holly said. "Oh yeah, that preppy guy had a tiny little cock," Bethany said. "But he was plenty nervous too so that was part of the reason. This guy here is looking pretty nervous too." "Ha-ha, you always make the guys nervous, Bethany," Holly said. "They know they can't handle you. And yeah, this guy here is looking pretty damn nervous. Just relax, dude. I don't want your cock to be too small when I fuck you." He started to make a run for it but he felt Bethany grab him from behind and wrap her fat arms around him, pulling his arms tightly to his side - that fat bitch sure was strong. He tried to pull away but he couldn't even move. He was struggling with all of his might and Bethany was just holding him, barely even putting much effort into it. His face was wide open and Holly walked right up and punched him in the face - it really hurt. He had gotten a bit teary when he was slap-boxing with Annie so a full punch to the face when he couldn't even try and defend it really hurt. She punched him in the face again and it hurt even more. Holly punched him in the face a couple of more times, not caring at all how badly she was hurting him. Leah then jumped in and kicked him in the thigh which really hurt. He couldn't believe these bitches. Holly and Leah just kept hitting him until they could tell he couldn't take it at all anymore. Bethany then let go of him and he just fell to the ground. "Bethany hold him down," Holly said. "I'm fucking him first. Leah, I got some condoms in the glove box of the jeep. Go grab those, will ya darling?" Roman tried to get up but Bethany sat her huge ass right on his chest making sure he stayed down. He had no chance of getting up as he felt Holly undo his belt and pull off the slacks that he was wearing. Leah came back with the condoms and he could feel that his cock was hard as Holly put the condom on him. He couldn't really see much of Holly with fat Bethany sitting on his chest in between the two of them but he could feel when she sat her pussy right down on his hard cock. She started fucking him hard and it was awful feeling this bitch fuck him against his will like that. Having to see Bethany right in front of him while he was getting fucked made it even worse. And as bad as it was, he thought he may cum as she fucked him harder. He didn't want Holly to make him cum. "Oh, fuck yeah!" Holly yelled loudly, and he couldn't stand how much she was enjoying it. "Oh fuck yeah, I just came! Move out of the way, Bethany." Bethany moved out of the way and Roman saw Holly coming at him with her t-shirt still on but nothing on below the waist. She moved right at him and rubbed her wet pussy all over his face. "Hold him down still," Leah said to Holly. "He's got a little cock but it is hard. I want a turn." Holly sat her thick legs on Roman's shoulders from behind and made sure he still stayed down. She looked down at him with a threatening look and moved her face closer to his, while making a fist. "Don't you fucking move," Holly said with a quiet and threatening tone. "You fight me at all and I'll break your fucking nose." "Fuck yeah!" Leah yelled as she sat her pussy right down on his cock. She started fucking him hard and as much as he didn't want it to, it felt good. She was a trashy chick but she had a tight little body and as terrifying as what he was going through was, he couldn't help but feel like he was going to cum. Leah moaned loudly, even louder than Holly had, and then he felt himself cum. "Oh yeah!" Leah said again but then she could tell what had happened. "Ah fuck! Are you kidding me? This mother fucker came. Why can't these guys ever last with me?" Leah got off of him and looked down at his dick like she was not happy. "Move over," Bethany said to Leah. "My turn." "He already came," Leah said. "Oh, that's not a problem," Bethany said with a confident smile. "I know exactly how to get him hard again." Bethany pulled the condom off of him, threw it aside, and grabbed a hold of his cock. She squeezed it and stroked it fast while Holly still held him down with her legs. He hated to admit it to himself but Bethany was very good at that. She jerked him off rapidly and his dick was hard again in no time. He had to look away as he saw Bethany start to take her pants off as he did not want to see that at all. He felt Bethany put another condom on his hard dick and sat her pussy right down on it. Just her weight alone was too much for him to take but his cock still seemed to be liking it as she fucked him. "Fuck yeah!" Bethany yelled and he had a feeling that she came. "Good shit right there." He had a feeling that she came and he was hoping that meant that she would get off of him. But she kept fucking him anyway. He felt like he was about to cum again and it was such an awful feeling, especially considering how gross he thought Bethany was. She fucked him harder and he felt himself cum again. Bethany got off of him and he just looked straight up at the sky that had gotten a bit darker. He wanted to start crying but he felt like his soul had been sucked out of him at that moment and he couldn't even do that. He started to drift off into his own little world - until Holly got right in his face and put her hand on his throat. "You better keep your mouth shut about this," Holly said with an extremely threatening tone. "No South County cop is gonna give a shit what happened to some North County piece of shit that came down here. But they will tell us. And if you do, we WILL find you. In fact ... " She reached into the pocket of his slacks and took his wallet. He got up to try and grab it from her but she punched him in the face hard which hurt him and reminded him be better stay down. She handed the wallet to Leah who took his driver's license and started typing his address into her phone. Leah then threw his wallet at him and it hit him right in the face. He lay there looking straight towards the sky until it sounded like they were far away from him. He looked up to see them all getting in the jeep. Holly started the jeep, peeled out, and he watched them drive out of sight. He just they there on the ground, in the middle of nowhere in South County, and it was getting darker. **Email ajbrown2005@yahoo.com if you would like more information on my Custom Stories**
