Chapter 2 β The Entrance
Saturday night came round very quickly and I could feel my heart rate increasing the more I thought about what might happen. Debs was picking me up at 9pm and had given me instructions on preparation.
I was now in the bath, much later than planned! So the idea of relaxation and self pampering was now out of the window and I was frantically trying to remember everything I needed to do in the next two hours!
I did have loads of bubbles to play with, so much in fact that it was spilling over and I had a load of creams and mud to rub into various parts of my body. But the idea of relaxing was probably going to be too far fetched with my mind racing through possible happenings.
Every part of my body was being shaved and made super smooth and with the bath salts and the creams my skin was feeling so soft, I did feel quite special. In fact I was glowing.
A glance at the clock told me it was time to wash off the face mask and get out of the bath.
I knew I didn't need to wear the outfit bought specifically for the gathering proper. These would need to be given in as we entered as they needed to be "approved" before being returned to me for dressing in the robing room. So they were safely packed along with those delightful high heeled sandals.
My clothes for travelling had also been picked carefully according to Debs instructions and bought during the week.
"Make sure you buy good quality new clothes." she had stated somewhat intensely.
I wondered where she expected me to get the cash to pay for it all. I wasn't at work or anything at the time of this first gathering and only had the money my parents gave me. Debs though had it all figured and handed over all the money I needed and some β I stared at it and looked at her.
"The fruits of the gathering." she said laughing, her eyes beaming with delight.
Silk was a must for the top it seemed and the skirt had to be short and βfigure friendly'. So to make her happy my outfit comprised a silk blouse and short navy blue skirt.
I thought the skirt was stunning, it wrapped around my waist and was then fixed with six buttons all the way down the front, falling midway along my thighs and flowed just beautifully as I walked. I also loved the feel of that thin white silk blouse on my nipples, it made them hard just from the touch but I knew I had to wear a bra tonight for the arrival β more instruction!
Once dried, I painted both my hand and toe nails, this time a bright red! I guess the dark pink was Debs attempt at breaking me in gently. I really hated it on my hands. Thankfully the heels I was wearing would hide the toes, at least until I got inside!
I met Debs on the corner of the street, the cab stopping only briefly to pick me up. We were giggling and talking all the way out to the gathering, the cabby glancing in the mirror at the two silly young girls in his car.
He almost wouldn't leave us and kept checking our destination we had asked for when he pulled to stop at the deserted car-park on the edge of the park. We told him our friends were picking us up and taking us to the party. He eventually drove off still not convinced, muttering something about not wanting to read about two missing girls in the papers tomorrow morning.
It was a fairly discrete beginning to the events of the evening, with just a short walk from the deserted and uninspiring car park before we found a line of girls queuing to get in. The mood of the others felt very subdued, and there was little noise as whenever words were needed they were spoken in whispers only.
I looked at Debs and she just raised her eyebrows as if to say "Don't worry about them." Everyone carried a largish bag containing their outfits and gear and they were all dressed to impress. As the queue moved on, more girls joined behind us, and the entrance way came into view. The mood though remained constant.
We struck up conversation with some of the girls as we waited, many like Debs had been before and all talked about the need to "leave yourself at the gate," and to "walk in with no thoughts of right and wrong," with "everything being permissible," and to make sure you satisfy your own desires as well as letting "them" satisfy theirs. That sounded ominous and I suddenly had a panic, "What was my desire?" "Why was I here?"
We reached the entrance before I had answers and my confused, apprehensive face turned to the officials.
"Hello, are you registered?" asked the lady as her eyes narrowed in question as she looked at me.
