Life beings at 40 By Crossmanx at - crossmanx@hotmail.co.uk – comments and ideas welcome. âA woman looks at her upcoming 40th Birthday with dread; she knows she needs to change her life. But how? Life beings at 40 Alison Chambers is 39 and that dreaded 40th birthday was looming large, the old saying 'life begins at 40' keeps going through her mind but what life? She's married, 22 years! Her husband, John, is a sales executive for a large computer firm, they had two children, Toni and Phillip, and both are now at different ends of the county at university. Alison had been stuck at home with the kids for years; she knew she had to do something before she went mad. She also thought that John goes away on too many business trips and something was going on. So when a secretarial job came up at John's work she jumped at it, she got it and was over the moon, John hadn't been so pleased saying that the children would suffer! Four years had passed, she was good at her job, but it was the younger, prettier, thinner girls that got all the good positions. OK she had put on some weight over the years and maybe she didn't take as good care of herself as she could. John had had a number of busty young blonds and brunette secretaries over the years; currently it's Jodie, blond, dumb and busty! "But dear what would the board think if you worked for me, and you can tell me what Ted's up to, you're my eyes and ears darling"! That was John's usual reply when ever she brought the subject up. Alison looked at herself in the mirror she had a large bust, but she had put on so much weight all over, She now wore large dress that covered everything up! 'God she was starting to look old'! "39! Why Alison I though you was already into your 50's!" That comment hurt even more so as it was from 'Jodie'. For the last couple of months Alison had been working for Ted, only 24 but one of the new young up and coming 'wiz kids', he didn't mind that Alison wasn't young or a 'looker' she was good at her job, that's what he needed. But he still flirts ... ... with every other secretary but her! "Alison you're a good secretary ... ... You're a bit dull and well ... But you're a good secretary!" That was a compliment from Ted! John was glad that she was working for him "never mind what he says about you ... ... just find out what he up to for me" all John was concerned about was having an eye on the competition for the next round of promotions. "FOUR MONTHS!" Alison wasn't happy when John told her about the Asian tour he was going on. Four months in Asia for the company setting up the new Asia branch. Ted was going too; the competition was hoting up for the next seat on the board! John and Ted would e-mail work back to Alison who would do everything for them back at headquarters. If that wasn't bad enough it wasn't until they where on the plane and flying out to Hong Kong when she found out that Jodie had gone along as the 'secretary on the ground' more like the 'secretary on her back'! The first week went by slowly, Alison was frustrated with the situation, it was Friday and raining as she pulled on her old beige raincoat, it was like her, getting old, faithful and dull! She drove to the supermarket, when loading the car the bag split, shopping all over the place, 'Shit!' Then when driving back home THUD! 'A FLAT! SHIT!' That's all she needed! She got out, the rain was coming down harder now, just over the road was a building with lights on, she ran over 'Terry's Gym'! "Can I help" she turns to see an attractive black woman there in the doorway just on her was out. It wasn't long before Jasmin and Alison had the tyre changed, this woman was strong that was evident from the easy with which she manhandled the tyre and undone the bolts. Alison had insisted in taking the woman in the Gym café for a coffee to thank her. As they sat and talked Alison was captivated by this confident and strong woman, she was something else. She showed Alison around the gym, the people there all knew Jasmin, they showed respect or was it a bit of fear as she walked around, and this was from the men, there really was something about this woman that Alison longed to be like. "So why don't you come down and try the place the out see if you like it here" and with that Alison found herself as a regular down the gym and a new part of her life was opening up. Gym time was her time, she told no one, not even John, he was half a world away and she could hear the laughter "what YOU going to a gym!"! Jasmin helped her to exercise, to change, the weight came off, the muscles that she never knew she had, started to ach and then hurt. But in a strange was it was a good hurting, she could feel her body changing feel herself getting stronger, feel herself becoming more of a woman. Some men even started to look at her, even talk to her! She had to buy new cloths, her life was changing and for the better ... ... so much for the better. Alison had been going to the gym now for 3 months, in that time she had changed, completely! Both attitude and body. Now a confident 39 year old woman walked into the gym who body was slim, but firm and toned, her large bust could now be seen and desired on full show to the world, no longer hided by the rest of her over weight body. She turned people's heads with her new good looks; that long hair was now cut to show off her gorgeous to all. Jasmin had asked her to go to the old boxing club next door to the gym that evening she had a surprise for her. Alison went in, the hall was empty apart from Jasmin who greeted her new look mature sexy friend. Also there were two men, she seam to recognise them from the gym they stood inside the boxing ring that dominated the arena area. "Hi, I have a little surprise for you, you have changed so much since that rainy night, you don't look the same woman, but I think there's one more thing I can do for you". Alison looked puzzled "You've done so much for me it should be me doing something for you" she smiled "maybe later Hun, but for now and with the assistance of these 'volunteers'" she pointed to the two men who started to look quite nervous "I want to show you how you can truly change, so that you can look after yourself, teach that husband of you're a thing or two and really begin to live!" Another month later and it was the day that until recently Alison had dreaded her 40th! But instead of being anxious she was ready for her 'new life to begin'! She went to the gym and meet up with Jasmin, they worked out together, both in the gym and then a enjoyable private session in the boxing club just the girls and another couple of male volunteers! Alison loved her birthday but tomorrow would be the start of her new life, for tomorrow John, Ted and Jodi where back! The next day and the three of them where driven straight back to the office, Alison would see them there and they could all see the new her. She put on her old beige raincoat, not that it was raining, but it reminded her of what she was and how she wasn't going back to that life ... ... ever! Ted was already in his office when Alison got there, "what time do you call this? There are files to be sorted, where's my mail and for good sack where's my coffee? ... ... What's gone on here since I've been away you use to be so efficient! Dull but efficient and where is ... ... " Ted looked up to see Alison stood there his jaw dropped; mouth went dry and for once was lost for words. Instead of Alison the stupid wife of Ted, who was banging his secretary which everyone knew but Alison, the dull, fat but well-organised 'no body' there now stood this woman, she looked a bit like Alison, but she was a very attractive woman, short fair hair showed off high check bones, soft skin, full red lips. Was it the same woman? Well she worn the same raincoat ... ... But it wasn't raining! "Hello Ted I see your back" It is her! It is Alison "Shit! But you've changed" The woman closed the door as she walked into Ted's office "I have a bit of a surprise for you Ted". She starts to undo the raincoats belt, he can't take is eyes of her face, she has changed so much and looks so fantastic now, that was until her raincoat fells to the floor and reveilles her new body! "Christ!" Ted was shocked there in front of him is this gorgeous 40 year old woman, she worn sexy knee length black leather boots, tight black short and a black crop sport top, the sort women worn in the gym. Her body was trim, her toned muscles showed, her thighs where shapely and strong, her abs defined and sexy. Her arms where larger than his, again strong, toned muscles. Large breasts fill her top, all this and her new attractive face, this was Alison but a new Alison! "Do you like what you see Ted?" "Y ... ... Yes!" "Would you like to play bosses and secretaries?" She has a wicked smile across that now pretty face Ted cock reacts "Well" he smiles back "John's been screwing his secretary so think I should do the same". Alison expression changes "thanks for confirming what I suspected" WACK! AAARRRRRRRRR! The mature secretary backhands her boss hard across his face, he's shocked and it hurt ... it really hurt, she is strong! "You're a horrible little man" SMACK! THUD! Ted staggers backwards as she hits him "You treat people like shit" SMACK! He falls back against his desk as her fist again connects with his face "You've no right to talk to people the way you do ... it's about time someone put you in your place" THUD! OOOOFFFFFF! Alison's strong fist lands hard in Ted's gut, the man is bent double; he tries to gasp for air as the older woman drops him to his knees in pain. "And that person is me" SLAP! OOOOHHHH! Her strong thigh slams into the side of his face, blood splatters out as the battered man drops to the floor. Alison boot connects with his stomach THUD! WACK! He looks up to try and protest only to see her fist heading down to his face CRACK! UUUUHHHHHH! If it wasn't for the fact he was already on the floor that would have put him there. "Up you come Ted" AAARRRRRHHHHH! The mature secretary pulls her younger boss to his feet by his hair, and she isn't gentle with it. "Oh Ted don't tell me that 'dull' old me has finally grabbed your attention?" WACK! Another hard fist into his gut WACK! THUD! WACK! More, each with more force than the one before WACK! The last took Ted off his feet, he falls back to the floor, he can't take more of this beating that his secretary is dishing out. He can see the door and tries to crawl to it. The door flies open "He's planning to take his ideas in person to the board, he wants to beat you to them and ... ... " Jodie! Alison realised quickly what going on CRACK! She kicks out, her boot connects hard with Ted's jaw, he's sent rolling across the floor, he won't get away! Alison grabs Jodie, slams the door shut and pushes the busty blond against the wall. She struggles but this older woman is too strong 'What the Hell's going on?' she looks into the woman's eyes "Alison ... ... ALISON!" The older woman smiles, she presses her body against Jodie's to stop her from struggling "I can see what John saw in you ... ... but could never see what you saw in him ... ... until now". Alison pushes harder against Jodie and kisses her. Jodie struggles at first but as Alison tongue explores her mouth she gives in. Alison breaks off the kiss, smiles "I'll be back for you" she pushes the blond down into a chair and turns her attention back to Ted. Hauling her 'boss' back up to his feet "Pl ... ... Please Alison I ... " THUD! WACK! The mature secretary is not concerned with what he has to say only with what her fists can do. Jodie is still in a state of shock and wont, daren't move as she watches Alison physically batter and dominate Ted SMACK! WACK! CRACK! THUD! The older woman uses her strong fists and those firm thighs to inflict pain into Ted's body. WOOOSSSHHH! THUD! Jodie was even more amazed as Alison easily throws Ted over her should with some kind of judo throw. 'How is she capable of doing that? How she has changed!' Jodie can see Alison's firm strong body; it sends a strange feel all through her own body! Alison pulls Ted back up again from the floor; his bloody face bruised body are all testament to how Alison has changed CRACK! A devastating uppercut and Ted is sent flying, over his desk and crashes into a heap. Alison walks round to his motionless body, the mature secretary towers over the crushed and defeated body of her boss. The conqueror smiles. Alison feels surprisingly free and 'oh so satisfied' she grabs her old beige raincoat and puts it on, one last look at Ted's crushed body, the 40 year old steps over the unconscious body of her 'boss' and heads for the door. 'Life begins at 40' it certainly has for Alison Chambers, but what now? Her husband! As she leaves she turns and blows a kiss to Jodie "see you later", but now its time to show John what he's missed whilst he's been away and let him know, just as she had Ted, that things are going to change from now on ... ... !
