Hey Everyone. So I came up with this idea while I was channel surfing the other night and I saw that ABC Family show about gymnasts. It (i.e. the rather attractive coach) got me thinking about how interesting a relationship between an athlete and their coach could be.
So my basic idea for a storyline is as follows: Anna Scott is an 18 year old Olympic hopeful. She's been training and competing in elite gymnastics since she was 7 years old. Alex Bellov is a 26 year old former male gymnast- an Olympic gold medalist- who had to turn to coaching after a knee injury put him in early retirement. He just started coaching at Anna's gym about six months ago.
He and Anna have a special relationship- one of mutual respect and particular understanding- but it has become much more strained since their romantic feelings have begun to develop. Alex feels incredibly guilty and hates himself for thinking of a young girl in his care in such an inappropriate way. He's resolved to using his incredible self control and suffering in silence. Anna just feels guilty and somewhat silly for wanting something so impossible.
So, basic outline: Alex's feelings have been getting stronger and stronger and he's finding it nearly impossible to hide them from Anna. He's been avoiding her and when they do interact he's always cold and anxious to get away. Anna interprets this as him being angry with her and no longer wanting to coach her. This, in turn, makes her angry and she breaks into the gym one night to blow off steam, and Alex walks in on her. While alone, he almost kisses her, but ends up blowing her off, which only makes her more angry. The next night she sneaks into a bar and runs into Alex. Events progress from there.
Anna Scott, 18, Olympic Gymnast
5"3, 100lbs, very small and toned
Fair skin, long, curly brunette hair, big midnight blue eyes
Very driven, independent, and intelligent. Can be laid back, "saucy" sense of humor. Innocent.
Alex Bellov, 26, Coach, former Olympic Gold Medalist
6"1, 180lbs, athletic and very toned
Lightly tanned skin, short brown hair, dark brown eyes
Very principled, kind, and supportive. Hard on himself. Hard on his gymnasts.
Woo. Did ya get all that? PM me if you're interested. I want someone who uses longer posts (obviously) and is as devoted to the romance and plot development as the sex scenes.
And here we go:
Anna stood when her arms crossed on top of the balance beam. Her clenched jaw and quickly bouncing foot belied her frustration. She'd been working on her beam routine for the last two hours and Alex hadn't spoken one word to her. He'd been spending less and less time working with her lately and it was really starting to make her angry. She'd come to rely on him in the past six months and now she felt his absence like a slap in the face.
She glanced up at his office and saw him hunched over a pile of paperwork. He hated paperwork and she knew it; he could easily pass it off to the gym manager and only did it when he had absolutely nothing better to do. Like his JOB? she thought bitterly to herself.
Well, if he wouldn't train her, she would have to do it herself. She turned to face the beam and braced herself for her routine. She quickly threw herself into a series of handsprings, ariels, and walkovers, landing each move with precision. She finished the routine with two full somersaults in and air and a perfectly stuck landing. Slightly out of breath with flushed cheeks, she glanced up at Alex's office, only to see him staring down at her, a slightly wistful expression on his face. They locked eyes for a moment, both seemingly paralyzed, before Anna got flustered and dropped her eyes, turning to grab her towel and water bottle.
