Opal was moving west on the Oregon Trail. In a few months, she would be joining her fiancΓ©, a wealthy banker's son, in Oregon. She was travelling with two men and a skilled nurse, a woman by the name of Anne. Their party was a few weeks out from Independence, and so far, they hadn't come across any serious hazards, although Anne had treated a snakebite one of the men had gotten. Opal was used to the comforts of home, but she was quickly adapting to life on the trail. Without Anne, it would have been much more difficult.
As they made their way along the trail, Anne and Opal were sitting together in the wagon. The party was in good spirits, as they had just found a clear stream to drink from. Opal had gulped it down with her bare hands and filled her canteen several times, drinking every last drop. Fresh water was rare on the trail, and she savored every bit. Now, though, her bladder was achingly full and the rocky wagon ride made it hard to focus on anything else. Anne seemed unaffected, although she had drunk just as much as Opal. Opal feared wetting herself and having to sit in soiled clothes, but worse than that, she feared leaking into the wagon itself. She felt safe with Anne, but the two men still scared her, and she feared humiliating herself in front of them.
Anne seemed to notice concern on Opal's young, flushed face.
"Is something the matter?" She asked.
"I just need to use the toilet, that's all," she said. Opal's cheeks grew even more rosy. She was clenching her muscles tight to prevent herself from wetting. Combined with the bumpy ride, her arousal was growing despite the discomfort of the situation. She felt as though her body was betraying her.
Anne looked out on the road before them. It was almost entirely grassy plains, with a grove of trees far off in the distance, just a speck on the horizon.
"I don't suppose you'd like to do your business with these men watching you in the grass, would you?" Anne joked. She had a soothing voice with a playful tone that always relaxed Opal. She giggled.
"No, not really," Opal replied.
"Can you wait a little bit to reach the trees over yonder? I'll go with you."
"That's fine. Thank you, Anne."
"Don't worry. I'm in the same boat as you. Sometimes it helps me to put my hand between my legs and put some pressure there, if you're really about to go," she said.
Opal did as the mild-mannered nurse told her and cupped her vulva through her dress. She realized that her vagina was throbbing and twitching, and wondered if Anne's was doing the same. The thought of watching Anne's pee crossed her mind, but the mental image was about to make her wet herself, so she put it out of her mind.
After a rough 45 minutes, the grove of trees was in sight. It was just a couple yards off the main trail.
"Stop here, boys," Anne said, and they halted the oxen for them. Anne grabbed ahold of Opal's hand and pulled her towards the trees. She had a smile on her face.
