Annette and I had been sitting in our dorm room, both of us naked, when she asked me how I became such a show-off. I had told her about the first time I went topless, on the community beach at the lake near the small town where I grew up, and then told her that there was more.
"More?" she asked.
"Yeah. I had gotten so turned on by going topless that I just had to try it again, but there was no way that the park rangers were going to let me get away with it at the lake. Heck, they had told Lisa and me to 'roll over' onto our tummies and not show off our tits, and that was a very nice way of not arresting us.
"So, after I got home - and gotten myself off in the shower! - I started searching the internet, trying to find a topless beach in Jersey. It showed that there was a completely nude beach in Sandy Hook, all the way to the north end of the state, and I've been there a lot, but the first thing I found was a story which noted that a few women were getting away with going topless on the beach in Atlantic City and Margate. The story was more about the popularity of thong bottoms, and said that a fair amount of girls were wearing them on those beaches now, but a few more were going topless.
"Well, the thongs interested me, but it was the excitement of going topless that was getting me going.
"So, anyway, I called Lisa, and told her about this, and asked her if she'd go with me on Saturday. She was hesitant, but I kept pleading, finally pointing out that she didn't have to go topless if she was too uncomfortable. Finally, she agreed."
"You really can be pushy," Annette said.
"I know, I'm a real bitch, aren't I?"
"No, not a bitch, just . . . pushy!" We both had to laugh at that!
"I should probably have had more sense about this, because I was scheduled to report for Basic right after Labor Day, and getting busted could have fouled up my plans. But anyway, Saturday came, and I was going to dress hot for the day. I put on my purple bikini - it was the only one I had - and some cut-off jeans shorts and had cut off this grey tank top so that it stopped about four inches below my boobs. I borrowed my mom's car for the day, telling her that we were going to the beach in Jersey, so she knew I'd have it all day. I headed over to Lisa's and picked her up, and then she said that Stacey, one of our friends from high school, who'd been with us when we went topless before, wanted to go.
"'Is she going to go topless?' I asked.
