THE ALL DAY GIRLS
Chapter 5: HEAT TWO (F hold-it, touching on desp)
By Paul Tester

This was expected to be a much closer contest, and so many girls wanted to 
watch that a rota of spectators had to be drawn up.  Sara and Katrina were 
judges, and the contest was held in Pauline's study, as this was the biggest 
room they had access to.  Alison and Tracy had appointed themselves Erica's 
chief supporters, and had arranged the rota so that at least one of them 
would be there to encourage her.  Almost all the sixth form girls were 
supporting Susan, as they could not bear the though of a much younger girl 
being able to wait longer than any of them.  So great was the rivalry between 
Erica and Susan, that Diana was almost forgotten, and it was soon apparent 
that her heart was not in the contest. She retired after only an hour of the 
contest, as soon as she was too desperate to walk without holding between her 
legs.  This left the two main contestants to fight it out for the rest of the 
afternoon.

Erica knew that she was the under-dog in this contest, and was determined to 
do well.  Her plan was not to give any indication of how badly she wanted to 
go until it was impossible to disguise it.  Thus she spurned such aids to 
waiting as crossing her legs while sitting or standing, and had no intention 
of holding between her legs.  When Diana gave up, Erica was feeling very 
full, bursting in fact, but was going out of her way to prove that she hardly 
wanted to go.  She was making a point of standing and sitting with her legs 
apart, just to show Susan that she didn't want to go.  Susan, who was in a 
similar state to Erica, was keeping her legs tightly crossed while sitting, 
and her thighs were pressed together all the time she was standing or 
walking.  Erica's tactics were working, as Susan was really bursting, and 
becoming worried about how long she was going to have to wait if she was to 
win.  

Two more drinks later, and Susan was twisting her legs together in 
desperation, and having to press between her legs occasionally as she walked, 
when the urge to pee became almost unbearable.  She was becoming resigned to 
losing the heat, but continued encouragement from her supporters made her 
determined to hang on until as long as she could.  Already her bladder was 
throbbing, and felt very swollen.  What Susan did not know was just how badly 
Erica actually wanted to go.  She was still not even crossing her legs, 
though a close observer would have seen that she was having difficulty 
walking normally.  In fact, she was absolutely desperate, having to use all 
her strength to hold back her pee, and very close to letting some dribbles go 
into her knickers.  It was only her determination to follow the tactics she 
had planned that was preventing her from either crossing her legs or holding 
her crutch.  This was nearly her undoing.  During the next walking time, she 
was hanging on with every ounce of her strength, fighting so hard to control 
herself without showing her desperation that she was hardly aware that Susan 
was holding herself all the time.  Then, despite the effort she was making to 
clench her bladder shut, she felt her sphincter giving way and about to let a 
spurt of pee escape.  Panicking, she grabbed between her legs with both 
hands, pressing her fingers hard against her pee hole, desperately trying to 
stop herself leaking and losing the contest.  Somehow, she wasn't sure how, 
she managed to stop herself, and then carried on shuffling round the room, 
keeping both hands pressed between her legs until she felt she had control of 
her bladder again.

When she was able to sit down, she carefully removed first one, and then both 
hands, just able to control herself with plaited legs, and thankfully noting 
that she had not actually leaked, or at least not enough to show and lose the 
contest.  Susan had been close to giving up, but was now heartened to realise 
that Erica was far more desperate that she had thought.  Susan and her 
supporters guessed that Erica had come very close to wetting herself, and 
expected her to give up after the next drink.  Both Alison and Tracy were 
encouraging Erica, telling her that Susan was about to give up, and Tracy 
whispered to her that she should not be ashamed to hold her crutch and take 
some of the strain off her bladder muscles.  Erica replied grimly that she 
didn't have much choice, as she could hardly manage to stand up unless she 
did hold herself.

Despite her earlier plan, Erica held her crutch most of the sitting period, 
and all of the standing and walking time, while Susan managed to survive for 
part of the time with just crossed legs and walking sideways.  Two more 300 
ml glassed of water, and both girls felt they were reaching their limit.  
Susan was now frantic, holding between her legs all the time, often using 
both hands and doubling over in a last despairing attempt to hold on.  Her 
bladder seemed to her to be so swollen it was sticking out about 6 inches, 
and she thought she was going to explode if she didn't pee soon. Erica was 
also holding all the time, often using two hands while walking, but was 
feeling more in control now the earlier crisis had passed.  Her bladder felt 
enormous and very painful, but she knew she could wait if she really had to. 

Walking was too much for Susan, and ultimately she lacked Tracy's 
determination to hold on until she started leaking.  She doubled over, 
pressing both hands hard between her legs, twisting her legs together, trying 
everything she could to hold back her pee, but finally she could not stand it 
any longer. She gasped "Sorry! I can't hold it any longer, I give up!" and 
staggered to the loo, helped by Carol and accompanied by Katrina to time her 
pee.  Erica was elated, because she knew that she could manage to wait the 
extra 20 minutes, even if she held herself all the time.  In fact it was 
harder than she thought, and as the time approached, she suddenly became 
incredibly desperate as she anticipated the pee.  But she made it, finally 
walking to the loo with Sara to time her.  

Susan had been timed at an incredible 2 min 15 sec, but Katrina reported that 
she had not produced anything like the pressure she had expected, describing 
it as a very long normal pee.  Erica had taken only 1 min 12 sec to empty her 
bladder, but Sara said that she had started with more pressure that she had 
ever heard anyone pee with before, gradually reducing to a more normal 
stream.  Whatever their volumes, there was no doubt that Erica was the 
winner, and once again she had amazed the older girls with her capacity.

Because of this difference in their peeing times, it was decided that all the 
girls would have to pee in a bucket behind a screen in the contest room, so 
pressures could be compared and volume measured.
