Added 2025-06-18 08:26:05 +0000 UTCI should’ve known better than to stay behind after hot yoga. Everyone else had cleared out, but I lingered in the changing room, still buzzing from the intensity—and maybe a little from the way my yoga instructor, Eli, kept adjusting my posture more than usual.
I slipped off my leggings, took a deep breath, and started fantasizing a bit… okay, a lot. Just me, a towel, and a very vivid imagination. I was mid-thought (and mid-touch, let’s be honest) when I heard the door creak.
In walks Eli.
We locked eyes. Time froze. My hand was still there.
He blinked. I squeaked. There was a very awkward "Sorry!" followed by a door slam that might as well have echoed through the Himalayas.
I wanted to melt into my yoga mat. The worst part? I have class with him tomorrow. Guess I’ll be working on my downward denial. 🙈
