Mel and Kel

"Hope I'm there if they do," was the answer.

Fairly quickly, Melissa had picked out a plain white tee shirt, a little thinner than Kelsey would have liked. There was nothing she could do though as she put it on and looked down at herself. The nipples were definitely there, not obscenely visible but very much there. She'd do her best to just forget about that and hope the day passed quickly.

They gathered for breakfast, a light breakfast as usual, Melissa giggling the whole time with Kelsey attempting to glare at her and trying to remind her of the spectacle she'd be, giving hot tongue to Damek. Unfortunately, she got the vibe that Melissa might actually be going to enjoy this and, she was sure the huge hunk would find her very tasty due to the gobs of mouthwash she used right after breakfast. The crucial class time was 2:00 pm and Kelsey would be there for sure. They parted, heading their separate ways for early classes.

Not unusual, when Kelsey got to Milander Hall, the site of her first class, she had to pee. She took care of that little chore, and not easily, having to get the spandex shorts off and then back on. She wondered if anyone heard her grunting and mistook it for a possible case of constipation. She stopped to wash her hands and glanced at herself in the mirror. She could hardly get her breath. She hadn't seen it at home but, those nipples which stuck out just a tiny bit enticingly were surrounded by a darker circle, clearly visible through the thin material. She almost took a paper towel and put it under the shirt but knew that would be cheating on the dare. She knew she'd be carrying books in front of her chest when she walked but would just have to "let it show" when she was sitting in class. Maybe this would get her a boyfriend, she thought, nearly gagging at that idea. So off she went to class, titties on display in front and tight ass wiggling in the rear.

Going into room 103, the lecture hall, things were pretty crowded, as usual, as everyone tended to wait till the last minute to go inside. As she was about to go through the door, she felt a gentle pat on her butt. Her head snapped around to see three guys behind her, two staring at their phones and a third, talking with a friend. It was probably one of the phone guys and it disgusted her that they'd do that, right out in public. She sat down at her seat and thought about the butt-pat again. She almost smiled. Someone had thought her butt nice enough they wanted to touch it. Disgusting a little, perhaps, but she decided she'd take it as a compliment. Not that she wanted it to happen all day, but . . .

As she left the lecture hall and headed down the hallway in a big crowd she heard, behind her, "Nice ass." This time she didn't look around. Another compliment. It was hard to be totally objective in cases like this but she thought she might have a nice ass after all. She was able to cover the dark-circled tits for most of the day but her butt was free to wiggle as much as it felt like doing. Actually, she had stopped worrying about that and did get three more, "nice ass" comments as she moved on toward the two o'clock date with "the kiss".

Kelsey got to the spot outside the room where Melissa had her math class and stood a little away so she could get a good overall view. Damek was the first to arrive and he stood outside the room, looking around over the tops of people's heads, trying to spot Melissa, who, of course, would be easy to spot over those heads. Kelsey saw her coming, watched her walk right up to Damek, put an arm around his neck and pull his head down to her. She kissed him and Kelsey could actually see her cheeks working as she was kissing per the instructions of the dare. Damek looked surprised for about two seconds, then was an eager participant in the action. It was at least 10 seconds long and Kelsey almost couldn't believe she was doing it. Finally, Mel turned him loose to scattered applause from those gathered around. Melissa took his hand and they headed through the classroom door.

Kelsey did get one more ass-pat that afternoon and this time she turned around to see just one guy behind her, looking a little guilty. She glared at him.

"Too nice to ignore," he said quietly. "Too nice." She stood facing him until he walked away. She couldn't help but smile.

When Kelsey got home, she decided to stay dressed the way she was in order to confront Melissa about the unevenness of the dares. In just a few minutes, Mel was there.

"Did you see it? She said immediately.

"Yeah, I did. You got applause.

"That isn't all I got. Damek gave me some nice tongue and a thank you."

"Well, I wanted to talk to you about that. Your part of the dare lasted, what, 10 or 15 seconds?" She stood up and stuck out her chest at Melissa, then turned around and patted her butt. "Mine lasted the whole frickin' day. You got applause and I got pats on the butt and a few 'nice ass' comments."

"It was your dare that started it. Don't try to blame your wiggling your ass at guys on me." Melissa ducked as she thought Kelsey might hit her.

"You forgot to mention how this shirt looked too. Thank the lord I went in the restroom before my first class and saw it."

"I thought it was kind of cute, that you could give guys a little hint about the goodies hiding under the shirt." She ducked again.

"If we're going to do a dare, it should be somehow even for both of us. Like doing the same thing."

"You ready for another dare," Melissa said defiantly. "Go for it. This one was kind of fun." She remembered how surprised she was that she had really, really enjoyed kissing Damek.

Kelsey smiled. She was actually ready for this.

"Okay, I'll spell it out and you can do it or chicken out."

"No way I'll chicken out. If you can do it, so can I." She had stiffened her neck and looked very defiant and ready.

"Here it is. You know the park down at the end of Mullin Street?" A shake of the head from Melissa. "It has a parking lot at each end of the walking path that goes through it. The path is almost exactly two miles long." Now she looked at Melissa with an evil grin. "We'll park your car in one of the lots and my car in the other. We'll walk to the middle and hide a bag of . . . " she paused for effect, "of clothes. Then you go back to your car and I go to mine. We'll pick a time and set our watches so they're the same." Melissa now had a puzzled but anticipatory look on her face. "We strip naked in our cars and walk down the path, naked, to the sack. The first person there gets the sack and heads back for their car. The person who gets there last has to walk naked to the other car."

"Are you serious?"

"I knew you'd chicken out."

"I haven't chickened out. If you do it, I will." Melissa was saying things that she wasn't sure she really believed. The word 'naked' kept rattling around in her mind. That was no clothes and bare skin, in public. There had to be more. "So, is there more?"

"This is honor system stuff. No running, you have to walk the whole time. You get two times where you can get off the path and hide, but no more than two. Still up for it?"

"Yup." She was terrified and hoped it didn't show but no way was she backing down.

Kelsey had thought for sure that Melissa would back out, wouldn't be willing to do it so she hadn't thought too much about what it was going to be like. 'Naked' was also echoing in her brain. Getting your spandex wrapped ass patted a couple of times was quite a bit different than being naked in the park. Quite a bit different.

They decided on a day and a time. That was the easy part. When that day came and the time was approaching, it got a little more, well, nerve-wracking. The had each put shorts, blouse and underwear in the bag along with cell phones and car keys. They walked to the one-mile marker and carefully hid the bag off the trail and behind some bushes. Satisfied that it was secure, they wished each other good luck and headed back to their respective cars. Each watched carefully to see how many people they encountered along the trail and were relieved that there were very few. The time of the afternoon they had chosen seemed to be working out well although, they both wished they'd encounter zero people along their way. Maybe midnight would have been a better time. The realization that it was very unlikely that would happen was becoming more prominent and each was wondering how they would react when the inevitable happened.

Back in their respective cars, each looked around carefully, then stripped, the air touching their bodies quickly reminding them of that ever-recurring word, naked. They had set their watches, the only thing beside shoes they were allowed to wear and the time came. Both had parked at the edge of the woods and the path and quickly hopped out. They locked the cars and started, both nearly overwhelmed by the feelings that swamped their consciousness. They were . . . NAKED.

Melissa had hardly gotten started when she became aware of a pair of ladies approaching her. She decided to not use one of her "hides" and just walked toward them.

"Sorority stuff?" one of them asked, grinning.

"Just a dare," Melissa replied, suddenly aware of how tall she was and how she must look.

"You walking to the other end then?"

"Just to the middle, I hope. There's someone coming from the other end too - part of the dare."

"Sally, maybe we should try that," the talker said to her companion.

"Not gonna happen," the companion said. "And good luck to you. By the way, not far behind us is a pretty big group of men and women. Don't know what you're going to do with that."

"Good luck," the talker said, and the two ladies moved on.

Melissa knew what she was going to do about the big group. It looked like hiding off the path number one was in the offing. She soon heard lots of voices and disappeared behind some rocks that did an effective job of hiding her. Unfortunately, the group was in no hurry, laughing and talking and chasing each other around. They even stopped to check out some flowers growing on the other side of the path. Finally, they moved on and a trembling Melissa was back on the path. Close call.

Kelsey knew that she had covered over half of the way to the hidden bag and, so far, no one had come along. She was enjoying the feeling of being naked, the fact that it was daring and way, way out of her comfort range. She knew that would change quickly if she encountered anyone but she did have the two 'hides' available. She was so enjoying the air and the trees and just walking along that she didn't hear the runner coming up behind her until he was beside her. She turned quickly and looked at him - too late to hide now.

"Holy shit," he said slowly, looking at her from head to toe.

"It's a dare thing," she offered feebly, trying to control her breathing. He was a good-looking guy in his shorts, shirtless as well. Actually, he was a good-looking guy no matter what he was wearing. But she was naked and he was looking at her.

"Wow. Glad you decided to do the dare now, while I was running here." He paused. "I don't want to embarrass you but . . . you are totally gorgeous."

Melissa felt her dark complexion beginning to glow red. How could she respond to that?

"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you. It's just that, you are." He reached into the pocket of his running shorts and took out his cell phone, aiming it at a now trembling Kelsey. But he stopped. "Naw, I can't do that," he said, putting the phone back in his pocket. "Wouldn't be right. I'll just have to let my eyes remember you." He had a huge smile and she was feeling . . . well, a little more comfortable if that was possible.

At that moment a bicycle with a male rider came around a curve in the path and skidded to a stop.

"Attention K-Mart shoppers. Naked lady in isle one." He was smiling but it wasn't a totally warm and friendly smile. He whipped a cell phone from his pocket.

"If that phone clicks a picture, you're going to have to buy a new one tomorrow," the runner said, taking a step toward the bicycle guy.

"Fuck off, man. I'm taking a picture."

Runner guy stepped between the biker and Kelsey and moved toward the bicycle once more. His fists were doubled up at his side. "Put it in your pocket and take off," he said, now just about two feet from the bicycle.

"Hell man, if your girl friend wants to be naked, keep her off these paths." The phone back in his pocket, bicycle guy was back on the bicycle and quickly off.

Girlfriend? Now, Kelsey knew what to say. "Thank you."

"No problem and my pleasure. Too many perverts around these days."

"Listen," she said. "Part of this dare has to do with how long it takes so I better be moving."

"Oh, cool." He looked around. "Listen, I'll walk with you as far as you're going just in case. And, I promise to just look you in the eye even though that's going to be one of the hardest things I've ever done."

Kelsey couldn't help but give runner guy a warm smile. She was naked but she was . . . comfortable?

Melissa was finally able to escape from behind the rocks and had walked an uneventful distance when she heard more voices. Now she had to decide. Use hide number two or face the group. She decided she wasn't quite ready to face a group yet and the unknowns that went with that, so she hid. When she saw them, she was happy for her decision. Four males, probably in their 30's just out for a walk. She could also see that two of them had a can of beer, forbidden in this park, but it didn't seem to be stopping them. They were just ambling along as well and, since the path was fairly straight along here, she had to wait a little longer before she could escape from hiding number two. But, finally, she was back on her way, realizing that she had used her two 'hides' and hoping she wouldn't be sorry she had.

Kelsey and runner guy were moving along quickly now. Walking was required but nothing said you had to walk slowly and runner guy, who told her his name was Mike, was having no trouble staying up with her. True to his word, he hadn't checked out her body since they had started walking and she was trying to decide if that was amazing or disappointing. Actually, it might be both, given what he had said before. When they were almost at the one-mile marker, they had been passed by a single female, obviously power walking, swinging a weight in each hand who only said, "Hope you don't get cold there, honey."

At the marker, Kelsey got her bag while Mike waited, quickly putting on her shorts and blouse, deciding she could go commando one more time.

"Even with clothes on you're totally gorgeous," Mike said when she reappeared around the bush.

"Thank you," she said, only blushing a little this time. But he was standing there, looking at her and she could tell he was pondering something.

"Is your cell phone in that bag?" he asked innocently enough. Actually, it was in the pocket of her shorts and she pulled it out. "Unlock it and let me have it a second." Now what the heck was that she wondered? But she had no reason to distrust him so she unlocked it and handed it to him. He punched away for a few seconds, then used the keyboard and handed it back to her. She glanced at it, then at him. "That's my cell number. I'm dreaming, I know, but if you would ever, ever want to or like to or. . . Shit, I can't even talk. Good luck to you." He turned and was off running on the path. Kelsey put the phone in her pocket, tucked the sack under her arm and headed for her car, gloating that Melissa would have to cover that extra mile to get to her clothes. She realized she had never told Mike her name.

Melissa kept walking toward the one-mile marker, not at all optimistic about her chances of getting there first. Maybe Kelsey would have mercy and leave the bag with her clothes there. Somehow that didn't calm her at all as she knew the chances of that happening were nil, nada, never, nothing etc. She did see someone coming toward her, a lady walking fast and swinging weights in each hand.

"Not into naked hiking yet, like you guys apparently are." Quickly she was gone and Mel decided she must have passed Kelsey as well. Not long after that came a runner, a good-looking shirtless guy who just smiled at her. She wondered a couple of things. Why hadn't he stopped to look at her and maybe make a comment? And she wondered if he had seen Kelsey as well, little knowing, of course, that he was now understanding the dare a little better. She came to the mile marker and quickly discovered the bag was gone. Either Kelsey had gotten it or some pervert was sniffing her underwear. Reluctantly, but with no other choices, she headed forward along the path.

As Kelsey walked along, she searched in the bag and found Melissa's cell phone. They had shared passcodes in case of emergency and both had been honorable about not snooping in the other's phone. She entered the code and went to the phone app. She quickly found what she was looking for and pressed the "call" button.

A base voice answered. "Hello, Mel. So glad you called."

"Hey, Damek. It's not Mel, it's Kelsey."

"Is everything okay?" He sounded alarmed.

"No problem. Everything is perfect." She grinned. "You know that park at the end of Mullin Street?"

"Yes, I do," he answered, his Czech accent very prevalent.

"I'm there right now, waiting for Mel. I'm in my red Honda. She'll be here in a little while. Can you get here and surprise her with me?"

"Oh yes, can be there in 10 minutes."

"Perfect," she said, hoping he'd get there in time.

It was about eight minutes later that she saw him in her rear-view mirror, heading right toward her. She rolled down the window. "Just jump in the back seat. She'll be here any minute." As he opened the back door, she realized that she had momentarily forgotten something important. Damek was huge.

"What going on?" he said as he attempted to crawl into the car. "Maybe I sit this way," he added wedging his body across the back seat, one foot on the floor and the other on the seat.

"Sorry," she said apologetically, "and you'll see in just a minute."

"Damek always too big," he laughed.

"There," she said, pointing to the end of the path. Melissa was there, crouching behind a little bush before she made her last walk across the parking lot. Of course, Kelsey had moved her car to the middle of the lot to torture Melissa just a little more before she got her surprise. There were only two other cars in the lot and they were obviously empty so, quickly, Melissa, tall, blond and very naked made that last walk and quickly jumped into the front seat of the car.

She looked at Kelsey. "Had to park in the middle of the lot, didn't you? You're so bad, and wipe that silly grin off your face."

"Hello," said a deep voice from the back seat followed by a shrill scream that nearly broke eardrums and Melissa's hands moved to the "cover your stuff" position.

"Oh god," she said, her color closely matching that of the car.

"You are very . . . překrásný." He was struggling with the English word and had reverted to Czech. "Very beautiful," he said, finally remembering.

Melissa just wanted to fade away and be gone. He had seen her walking across the parking lot, totally naked. She had kissed him the other day at school and now gone naked. What must he be thinking?

"I do one of two things," he added. "I get naked too or I get out of car and let you put clothes on. Do you have clothes?"

"Yes," she squeaked out. "I mean yes, I have clothes." The thought of him getting naked too terrified her in a very fascinating way.

Kelsey jumped out and opened the back door to help Damek get out as Melissa was still crouched in the front seat, covering herself even though there was no way he could see her from where he was. And besides, he'd already had a pretty good view. Awkwardly, Damek squirmed out of the car and walked quite a way across the lot where he waited, smiling. As Kelsey climbed back into the front seat, she got daggers from Melissa's eyes.
