I'm not sure whose idea it was to do a 50's day at school, but the class went for it and my mom helped me get an outfit together for the day. We went to the charity thrift shop and found a nice shirtwaist dress with a really full skirt for me to wear. She had to go online to find a petticoat to wear underneath, but in the mean time, she found other things like a "bullet" bra and saddle oxfords like the girls wore back then.
I thought the bra was weird. It wasn't a natural shape for a girl's boobs, but it was kinda like a cone. It wasn't as comfortable as my usual bras but it wasn't really bad. It really looked different, making my boobs really stand out. When the day came, mom helped me get dressed. I wore ankle socks with my shoes, rather than any stockings. I told her that the girdles girls wore back then looked uncomfortable. She laughed and agreed.
"Dear, the only weird thing is that going to the bathroom wearing really full petticoats can be difficult. Lots of times the girls went to the bathroom with another girl to help her take her slip off and then put it back on after she did her business. I know it sounds strange, but most girls got used to helping each other with their things."
"Ewwww, mom. I'm not sure I can do that. Reaching under another girl's skirt? How gay is that?"
She chuckled. "Back then, it probably wasn't gay at all. I know there were lesbians back then. They've always been around, but they kept their orientation very secret. They tended to date boys in high school and get married to men and just found other women later in life, I guess. My Aunt Ellie, your great Aunt, is gay. She's been living with another woman for years, but she married a man and had children before they divorced."
"I didn't know Aunt Ellie was gay. She's so nice."
"Yes, dear. She's truly a lovely woman and nice to everybody. Being gay doesn't prevent people from being good citizens and nice people."
I thought about that. I know a gay girl at school who's really way out of the closet and she's in your face about it, but she helped me with a school assignment and I thought she was really nice when she didn't have her feathers all up. "Yeah, mom, that makes sense. Anyway, I don't need a gay girl to help me with my clothes. Maybe I can just not have to go to the girls' room that day."
She smiled at me as she smoothed the dress around the full petticoats I was wearing. "Whatever. Just find a friend or maybe you can just take off your petticoat in the girls room and hang it up before you go or something. What's Julie wearing?"
Julie's my BFF. We do everything together. "Her mom found her a dress like mine, just hers is in pink and mine's blue."
Mom chuckled. "Well, the Bobbsie Twins ride again. I'm sure both of you will be amazingly cute."
She sat me down and made me up like a 50's girl, down to really bright red lipstick. I usually wear my hair in a long pony tail and that was in style back then, so nothing new there.
I met Julie at our lockers. Her dress was just like mine. It has a fitted bodice and it buttons up the front from the waist. The short sleeves have cuffs and there are breast pockets. The skirt parts are very full and they fall to just below our knees. I looked at the reflection of us in the trophy case in the hall. "You look very girly, Jules."
She grinned. "So do you, Babe. These are really fun dresses. When I twirl, my skirt flies way out. You should try it."
There were a bunch of kids in the hall, going to their first period classes, but I found a gap in the traffic and gave it a twirl. A couple of the boys whistled and I grinned. One of our girl friends said, "You two look very cute! Are you going to the sock hop?"
"Oh, yeah. Ya gotta dance in a dress like this."
Julie looked at me in consternation. "Do you know those dances, Babe?"
"Oh, for sure. I'll teach you. It's easy."
On our lunch hour, we found an empty classroom and I played some 50's era rock on my phone and I taught her how to jitterbug and swing dancing. It was lots of fun and when school was done, we met in the gym where the dance was being held.
We had a fabulous time dancing and talking with our friends. When we danced, we made sure to do a lot of swing moves and twirls to make our petticoats stand out really far. Everybody loved seeing as much up our dresses as they could. I never could see Julie's panties or anything, but I did see lots of pouty petticoats and I thought that was really cute and sexy. By the end of the day, we agreed that the clothes we wore were really fun.
I had to go to the bathroom after all the punch I drank and everything. "Julie, you gotta help me. Come with me to the girls' room, okay?"
"Sure, Babe. You got it."
We went to the girls' locker room and I turned to her. "Jules, you gotta help me with my petticoats. I have to take them off to pee."
She laughed. "Okay, Babe. Just lift up your dress for me."
I did and she fiddled around with the ties for a second and then I felt the petticoat drop from my waist and I stepped out of it. I got into a stall and gathered my dress around and dropped my panties so I could pee. The funny thing was that Julie stepped into the stall with me and watched as I let go. It was an amazing relief. I didn't realize how badly I needed to go.
I could feel her skirts brushing against my legs as she pulled a wad of TP from the roll. I reached for it, but she shook her head. "Hold your skirt up, Babe. I'll do it for you."
I managed to hold all of the material up and out of the way and Julie leaned over and thoroughly wiped my pussy dry. She seemed to take her time and I felt her finger between my labia, brushing against my clit and it felt amazing. "Jules?"
She dropped the paper in the toilet and kissed me. "I love you, Babe. I really love you, you know."
She gave me a hand to get up and I reached down to pull my panties up, dropping my dress again. She gathered my petticoats and I steadied myself on her shoulders as she held them for me, smiling. Her smile made me feel warm and funny and all of a sudden, I felt my panties begin to moisten.
She disappeared under my dress to fasten the ties of my petticoats snugly around my waist and then gave me a quick hug around my hips. I felt her kiss me over my mound as she did just before she got out from underneath, letting my dress fall in place again.
I didn't know what to say or do, but Julie had things in hand. She took me in her arms and hugged me. I hugged her back and she really turned me on with a kiss on the back of my neck. I'm so sensitive there, it's a guaranteed turnon for me.
I was confused. I've always considered myself straight. I've only dated boys and had fun with them, but Julie made me feel so good. "Jules? Have you always felt this way?"
I don't know how to describe the feeling of our skirts crushed together, our titties tight through our bullet bras and everything, but I felt very girly and quite loved at that moment.
"Yes, Babe. I've always loved you. You're my best friend ever and I want to be with you always. If that's not what you want, I'll try to understand, but I think I need you. It's like nobody could ever be what you are to me."
I held onto her tightly. "Jules, I don't know what to say, but I love you, too. Is this like you want us to be girlfriends or something?"
I could feel wetness on her cheek against mine. I was crying, too, then. I spread my legs and tried to pull her even closer. She took the hint and her thigh pushed between mine. I don't know why it felt that way, but the massive volume of material in our dresses and underwear seemed to make it even sexier if that makes sense.
"Babe, would you come home with me tonight? Mom's okay with you sleeping over and we could call your mom and see if that's okay with her."
I realized what she really wanted and I considered it for a moment. This was a major change in our relationship, but I thought I wanted her, too.
"Yeah, Jules. Besides, I think I need your help in getting out of this dress. After that, you can do what you want with me."
"You have to get me out of my dress, too, Babe."
"I think that's going to be fun. I want to stop by my house to get a few things, okay?"
