Back to Eveline - Chapter 6
Chapter 7 - N.I.P. with the Basketball Team
After they returned to the house, Coach Strickland noticed that Eveline
seemed a bit pre-occupied as the evening wore on. She was sure that the
problem was not the girl's lack of attire, because she seemed to be
getting used to being naked.
When the older woman asked the student if everything was all right,
Eveline replied that she was worried about the fact her cell phone had
been left in her school locker and she had not had a chance to check her
messages for nearly two days. Two days is a long time for a person of
Eveline's generation to go without checking her phone. The coach seemed
sympathetic.
"Yes, sweetie, it's no fun to be cut-off from everyone, is it? Well,
we'll see about fixing that."
Eveline's hopes rose, thinking that maybe the coach could somehow help
her get into her gym locker, and that she'd be able to retrieve more
than just her cell phone. However, her hostess took her back to the
house and logged onto her computer.
"Your cell-phone account is connected to an e-mail address, right?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Good. Then all you have to do is log into your e-mail and you'll be
able to retrieve your messages."
Eveline took a deep breath as she logged into her e-mail account. The
coach stood over her with her hand on the student's shoulder, as she
carefully observed while she enter her password. There were several
threatening messages from her brother's debt-collectors, a couple of
class-assignment postings, and a message from one of Eveline's teammates
inviting her to go out with their group the following day to just hang
out.
As much as Eveline wanted to have a break with her teammates, she
started to type that she couldn't go. The coach stopped her.
"What's going on, young lady? Being a bit anti-social?"
"No, ma'am... I just kinda thought... well, you know... my situation... "
"What's that have to do with anything? Just because your house burned
down doesn't mean you're suddenly a hermit."
"No, really... I just kinda... you know... without my clothes... "
"Don't be ridiculous! You went out with me today, so you can go out with
your teammates tomorrow. I'll give you some spending money."
"But, I... "
Coach Strickland's hand clamped down on the student's shoulder. Her grip
seemed incredibly strong and her voice became very stern.
"Are you arguing with me, young lady?"
"No, ma'am."
"Then knock it off with the loner bull-shit! Write her back and tell her
where to pick you up, which will be here. Put down my phone number as
the contact. I don't know if word about your house burning down has
gotten around, so you probably should let her know."
With her heart pounding and her coach reading as she typed, Eveline
responded to the text message, stating that she would be happy to join
her teammates the next day.
She couldn't believe this was actually happening...
----------
Eveline's teammates came over to their coach's house early the following
day. They weren't yet sure what they wanted to do, but figured they
would decide on their plans once they were all in one place.
Coach Strickland had a plate of whole-grain biscuits and mineral water
(caffeine and anything with corn syrup were strictly off-limits to her
players) ready for Eveline's guests as soon as they had gathered in the
living room.
Eveline had to greet and serve her teammates completely naked. The coach
had never mentioned anything to her about clothing, and by the beginning
of her third day with her mentor, Eveline knew better than to ask. The
previous night's grip on her shoulder and Strickland's sudden, sinister
change of voice resolved any remaining doubt in the student's mind on
that issue.
Eveline's classmates stared at her in fascination as she moved about the
room, serving them in the nude as though she was a waitress. Eveline's
companions had seen her naked plenty of times in the locker room and
during the team's "gymnos" practices, but to see her in their coach's
house and know that she had not worn anything for nearly three days
intrigued them. While serving, she had to explain about the broken key
in the locker room and what happened at her brother's house.
So Eveline was now their coach's permanent guest and completely at her
mercy. Wow...
And... it turned out that she would remain naked when they took her out
of the house. Each of them was thinking how the group could have some
fun with their friend's dilemma. A couple of the girls had brought
high-quality digital cameras with them, so Eveline's day of nude
adventures would be well-documented.
Eveline's teammates often liked to just walk around downtown on the
weekends, since there no longer was a real mall in the area and going to
the local big-box stores to hang out didn't cut it. The local downtown
stores opened up early, including on Sunday mornings, to be ready to
catch shoppers before lunchtime. There was always plenty to do downtown,
even for high school students.
Eveline was used to going out with the others, even though she rarely
had any money to spend. She had always been desperate to get out of her
brother's house before he and his girlfriend woke up and put her to work
cleaning up their latest mess. So the call to go out with the group and
Eveline's acceptance was nothing unusual.
Of course, on that particular Sunday morning, Eveline's complete lack of
clothing was a novelty. The others were fascinated by the strange turn
of events in their teammate's life and were eager to see what would
happen when they did their Sunday morning rounds with a naked companion.
Fortunately, it was not illegal to be naked in public in Eveline's town,
but in the downtown area it certainly was not normal and not something
one saw every day.
So, they'd make their morning rounds as usual. In fact, given that it
was a very pleasant morning, the students decided to walk around much
more than they normally would. They figured they'd stay out for about
three hours, have lunch somewhere, and then go to several local
landmarks for some group pictures.
----------
Eveline had a lot of personal issues and weaknesses that she was dealing
with. One of her biggest shortcomings was that she was desperate for
acceptance, and would do literally anything to try to fit in. Jenny knew
that about her teammate, so she decided to push Eveline's weakness in an
effort to dominate her completely.
Jenny insisted on holding her hand the entire time the students moved
about. Eveline did not know what to make of her team captain's strange
behavior, but she noticed that Jenny was not only massaging the palm of
her hand with her thumb, but also looking at her with a weird intensity.
Eveline was very uneasy with the bizarre new development of Jenny's
blatant advances, but did not dare try to pull her hand away.
One of the stops was at a city park. The team took group pictures, but
then Jenny decided she wanted pictures of herself alone with Eveline.
She pulled her naked teammate in front of a stone platform performance
set up for public performances and speeches and lined her up for the
camera. She couldn't resist caressing Eveline's soft bare skin and
telling her how pretty she was.
Eveline's heart was pounding. She forced a smile as the camera went off.
OK, so Jenny now had her pictures with Eveline. Better to say that Jenny
now had her first pictures with Eveline. First out of many, most likely.
Eveline wondered if there was any way the day could get more stressful.
Poor girl... what a silly thing to wonder about. Well, she'd get that
answer soon enough.
One of Eveline's teammates had just bought an expensive digital camera
and was eager to try it out during the group's Sunday outing. She
bragged the camera was so precise that "it can get your razor stubble
from across the room." And that was no lie. The device did indeed take
very high-quality pictures. There was no question that every minute
detail of Eveline's body was being thoroughly documented in the camera's
memory card. All of Eveline's teammates, not just Jenny, wanted to have
pictures of themselves hugging or holding hands with their naked
companion.
Jenny decided to push even harder. Her cell phone included a loudspeaker
that played music almost as well as a boom box. She decided it would be
fun to have Eveline do a dance performance for the benefit of her
teammates and anyone else standing around in the park. She didn't
exactly order Eveline to dance, but instead used psychology and
encouragement, with dares and support of the rest of the team. Before
she had time to really think about what she was doing, Eveline took off
her shoes and complied with the wishes of her friends. She danced to
several of Jenny's favorite songs, while the rest of the team cheered,
applauded, and encouraged her to continue.
Meanwhile, Monique, the teammate with the camera, took picture after
picture of Eveline. Her camera had a direct feed to Jenny's email
address, which in turn fed directly to several on-line image-posting
accounts. Jenny's accounts were open and she had hundreds of on-line
friends. Eveline's pictures "went viral" almost immediately after
Monique took them.
Jenny was blissfully unaware that, by the end of the day, she would
deeply regret having set up the automated photo-sharing arrangement with
her on-line accounts.
----------
While Eveline was dancing and posing for pictures in an effort to please
her teammates, her heart jumped when she saw that a new classmate had
joined her audience, a male student. It was Lance Comstock. And Lance
was not just any classmate: he was the guy with whom she had a secret
crush over the past year. Lance happened to be passing through the park,
and saw her dancing and stopped to watch. He had noticed Eveline plenty
of times in the hallways and in class and thought she was kinda cute,
but was clueless that she actually liked him.
He was fascinated by what he was seeing. Eveline, who always seemed so
shy in school, was out in the middle of a park dancing in the nude, as
though she were a Druid priestess. His heart pounded as he suddenly
realized he badly wanted her. One doesn't come across a girl who likes
to run around naked in public everyday. He had always fantasized about
having a "free-spirited" girlfriend, and here was such a girl, right in
front of him. He knew that she didn't have a boyfriend. Hmmm...
Eveline was totally winded after having danced non-stop to eight rapid
pop songs. At that point Jenny made a mistake that messed-up her plan to
control Eveline. After taking more pictures, she encouraged Lance to
talk to her, figuring that the conversation would further embarrass her
teammate and further isolate her. In fact, quite the opposite was about
to happen, that a classmate with whom Eveline had secretly been in love
with was about to express his interest in her.
At first Eveline was totally panicked about being left alone with Lance.
But, as he rambled on about admiring her "free spirit", it dawned on
Eveline what he wanted. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. He
actually was interested in her? Really?
Eveline realized what Jenny was up to and wanted to get away from her.
For the first time in her life, she summoned the courage to actually ask
someone for a favor.
"I... Lance... can you like... take me somewhere? Anywhere? Please?"
And, with that, Eveline said goodbye to her teammates and her shocked
team captain. She departed with Lance, and Jenny's fun came to an abrupt
end.
They walked to where Lance had parked his car. Trying to think of
something that would fill a large portion of the day, he invited Eveline
to go hiking with him in a nearby state forest park. At first she
thought about asking him to get her some clothes, but he seemed so
fascinated with the "free-spirited" illusion that she figured it would
be better to let him keep thinking that she was naked because she wanted
to be. After she got into her locker the next day and retrieved her
outfit, she'd have to let him know that it was due to a bunch of weird
mishaps that she had lost all her clothing. She'd have to confess that
she was not a "free-spirit", but that could wait. For the moment she'd
simply enjoy her little victory over Jenny and see if Lance was serious
about being with her.
