As a male, I went to Fantasy Fest to take pictures of topless women and believe me I got plenty. So you would not think that the story of one particlar girl would be so exciting--but for me and maybe for some of you --this situation was very erotic somehow.
For those of you who know Fantasy Fest, all of the action takes place only on the main drag --Duvall Street-- and if you go even one block away from there it is totally dead. It so happened that very early one day I was headed for Duvall street and was walking by an out of the way shop about 2 blocks away from the main drag when I overheard two girls (about late 30's or early 40's I'd say, but pretty good looking)arguing about getting their tits painted at that shop. At Fantasy Fest you see women can walk around on the streets topless if their tits are painted.
Anyway the blonde appeared to be married from the gold band on her finger and was really a Soccer Mom next door type-- a pretty blonde --late 30's or early 40's--but obvioulsy from her tone a bit on the prudish side. She says to her friend: "If you think I am walking around the streets topless you have to be crazy! I told you yesterday, I am telling you today --no way!"
This conversation caught my attention --so I ducked into the store pretending to shop. Then I hear the friend persisting in her attempt to convince the Soccer Mom, saying to her : "Look, Bob and the kids are at Disney--right? And no one here knows who you are--right? And you're going to have a big mask to cover your face and anyway you're going to be painted so no one will actaully see you topless--right?--well...not really totally topless anyway. And look... we only have one night before we have to go back so I am begging you..why not do something crazy for once in your life! If you don't do this you are going to regret it for the rest of your life. When do you think you'll ever get a chance like this again?"
The Soccer Mom Blonde kept refusing. She protested that she was not going to sit in a store topless to be painted: "What if some guys came by? I won't have a mask or any paint on then," the Soccer Mom protested, but she was obvioulsy weakening.
The friend sensing that she was winning reassured the Soccer Mom: "It's real early and no one comes by here until much later. We'll wait until the store clears out and then if you get it done right NOW --while its still early--you'll be fine. Look the place is practically empty! And they have a woman painter so not even one man is going to see you without the paint and a mask!"
Now the only thing keeping the store from being empty was me. While I was listening to the girls I had engaged the shop keeper with an offer to buy a t-shirt at half the listed price and was busy negotiating with her so as to give the impression to the girls that I was a "legitimate" shopper instead of an eavesdropper.
As soon as I heard the Soccer Mom finally agree to get her tits painted I left, but after "leaving" the area, I backtracked and ducked into a small ice cream shop about two stores down the other side of the street from the store where they were getting painted. I ordered a big milk shake and kept popping out onto the street so I could keep an eye on the store. That store, like most that featured a body painter, put the painting area near the front, where it was mostly visible from the street, so as to attract other potential customers walking by. From my vanatage point I was able to get a pretty good idea of what they were doing.
