Fortunately, Pepburger Stadium wasn't too far from Central Park, so Amy was able to get to her job at nothing more than a brisk walk. Even that left her a little winded, though. Still, she had enough time to finish off her pretzel, wasn't all bad. As she head into the locker room, she heard the members of the local baseball team, the Pepper City Shakers, going through their pre-game ritual where they psyched themselves up. Even through the closed door of the men's locker room, it was pretty loud.
Amy, meanwhile, made her way to the women's locker room, where the Pepper City Shaker's Cheerleading squad was going through their own process of limbering up. As she headed inside, one of the women, a blonde with a lithe, athletic hourglass shape, walked over to her and gave her a hug.
"Hi Amy! I was worried that you wouldn't make it!" she said.
"You know that wouldn't happen, Mel," Amy replied. The cheerleader released her hug a moment later before going back to her stretches. Amy's gaze unconsciously wandered to Mel's ass, before she realized what she was doing and hastily headed over to her own, double-wide locker.
Amy and Mel (short for Melanie) had been pretty close friends in high school. Melanie never fit the stereotypical role of the bitchy head cheerleader, and always had time to spend with Amy. It was during her junior year that Amy realized that she was in love with her best friend, but she never told Melanie out of fear of ruining their friendship. So the two would hang out together, with Amy relishing Melanie's attention while at the same time painfully hiding what she truly felt. Melanie had tried to pry a few times, but had stopped after Amy continually rebuffed her by saying "it's not important."
The two had gone to different colleges, with Amy completing an English Degree while Melanie got an athletic scholarship to continue her cheerleading career. Four years later and they had both graduated, though Melanie was more successful after joining the Pepper City Cheerleaders. Amy couldn't seem to translate her degree into a job, and so Melanie had managed to pull some strings to get Amy a job at the stadium. It was truly a bittersweet experience for Amy. On one hand, she got to see Melanie a lot more than she had during high school. On the other had, there was what the job really was.
The reason Amy's locker was double-wide was so that she could store the costume of Peppy the Pepper Shaker, the Pepper City Shaker's mascot. Peppy was, naturally, a big pepper shaker with googley eyes, a perpetual doofy smile, and big gloved hands. Amy sighed as she got into the costume. It was rather hot and smelly in it, but a job was a job after all. It also meant she had a good view of Melanie's cheerleading routine every game, so that was a definite plus.
Finally, it was time for the game to begin.

Everyone on the team, players, cheerleaders, and Amy, were all panting. It had been a long game that had gone into overtime, but the Shakers had been able to eke out a tiebreaking run in the eleventh inning, beating the Cayenne City Chilis at 4-3. Amy could feel the sweat all over her body. She'd had to move around the whole time, rallying a crowd that was quickly becoming sleepy as the sun set during the game. Still, she had gotten to see that one routine where Melanie flew through the air, so Amy didn't mind it that much.
She stripped out of the sweaty costume, hung it back in her locker, and headed into the showers. While at first Amy had been hesitant about heading into a communal shower with her less-than-fit body, no one really seemed to make a comment about it. And the feel of cold water her round belly and meaty thighs was really good after several hot hours in the mascot costume. Finally, Amy finished her shower, dried off, got dressed, and headed for the door.
