At my cousin's wedding

By Emi Tsuruta, First posted January 4, 2004

Finally, the day for my cousin Namie's wedding came.  Like I told you, this was the whole reason I went back to Japan last August.  My mom was having a fit because all our relatives were coming into town, and she'd have to entertain them.  I was glad when mom and dad decided to leave early, because it meant I could get ready in peace.

I took out the dress my boyfriend Ryosuke bought for me, the one I told you about.  It's made of this beautiful silky white material that kind of sparkles in the light.  I got worried though that maybe it was maybe a bit too risque to wear in front of all my relatives.  Some of them are from the countryside, so they're not used to how people dress in the big city.  Still, Ryosuke was coming to see me after the wedding, so I couldn't just chicken out, and not wear it.  It'd cost him a lot of money, and it did look nice.  Still, I decided to pack it in my bag, and just wear my jeans on the way to the hotel.  I didn't want to take any chances after what I'd been through the other day.  I'd more or less promised myself I was going to be a good girl for the rest of my stay.  That's not how it worked out though.

I left the house, and walked to the station to catch a train to Tokyo.  My sister Norika got to come later, but I had to handle the reception desk with one of my other cousins, Hideki.  I think I've told you a little bit about Hideki before.  He was there that time I was running around his house with no bottoms on.  That was a long time ago now, but that was the probably the last time I saw him.  My friend Michiyo was going on about how she thinks he's cute, but to me, he was always just a mischievous little brat.  When we were younger, he always used to tease me, calling me names or putting toads in my hair and stuff like that.  My mom said he's older and more mature now, but I found that a little bit hard to believe.

When I got there, a woman who worked for the hotel showed me to the waiting room for our side of the family.  I was the first one there, so I decided to get changed.  The waiting room wasn't really a change room I guess.  It did have some partitions up and a table for us to leave our coats on, but it also had a big picture window looking out over the garden and the street.  There were no drapes either.  I probably should have gone to the washroom to change, but I figured it would only take a second.  I closed the door, and quickly got ready.

I looked out the window at the building across the way, but it was kind of far away, and I couldn't really see anyone.  I quickly took off my sweater and blouse, and pulled the dress on over my head.  Because this dress is backless, you could see my bra strap running across my back.  I looked kind of silly like that.  Should I just hide my bra with the jacket or take off my bra completely?  I just left it, and pulled the dress down to cover up my hips, and then took off my jeans.  The slits of the side of the dress ran so high I had to pull the waistband of my panties way up, so they wouldn't show.  Suddenly, I heard someone call me from behind.

"Oh, Emi, it's you.  You're here already."

I twirled around, and it was Hideki.  I stared at him anxiously wondering if he'd seen me fooling with my panties.

"What are you doing here?" I demanded, already a bit upset with him for coming in without even knocking.

"Hey, relax, we're going to be working together.  Remember?"

"Well, get out!  Can't you see I'm changing?"

"Yeah, you'd better do something about that bra.  You look the real starlet with it showing like that."

I chased him out, and slammed the door behind him.  I was so angry, but as much as I hated to admit, he was right;  I couldn't leave my bra showing like that.  I hid behind one of the partitions, and finally took it off.  The front part of the top was in this triangle shape, and I had trouble getting it to cover up my breasts.  When I leaned forward, from the side, you could see the roundness of almost my whole breast.  I decided to put on the black lacy jacket Ryosuke had bought to go with it, and that seemed to look OK.  I still felt nervous though.  The whole reason I'd bought this particular dress was to cover up my breasts.  Oh well, I guess I'll just have to keep the jacket on.

Outside, the hotel lady showed us to our desk, and explained what we were supposed to do.  I was listening to her, but I could feel Hideki staring at my hips.  I reached around to the back, and I realized that the opening at the back went down so low that you could see where the crack of my bottom starts.  I pulled the jacket down, but it wasn't quite long enough.  Oh great!  Now I'm going to have Hideki staring at my backside all day.

Our desk was just one in a line of other reception desks.  It was a big hotel, and I guess there must have been a lot of other weddings scheduled for that day.  At the table next to ours, there was this really handsome western guy sitting there.  I kind of glanced over wondering what he was doing here.  You don't normally see too many westerners in Tokyo.  He kind of caught me looking at him.  I smiled, and then looked away.  He seemed like a perfect gentlemen.  While we were helping our wedding guests get checked in, he was doing the same thing for this other wedding.  His partner, a Japanese guy, did most of the talking, but when he finally said something, it was in English!  I thought 'great!'  Maybe I could introduce myself, and tell him I'm going to school in the States.  Unfortunately, he seemed too busy helping all their guests check in.  Hideki noticed me watching the American(?), and sneered in Japanese,

"Tsuriawanai yo (He's out of your league)."

This got me really upset.  What does he think?  I can't go out with western guys?  There's tons of guys at school who'd love to go out with me.  If I ever broke up with Ryosuke, I wouldn't have any trouble finding a new boyfriend.  What does Hideki know anyway?  He lived in Southeast Asia for a year or two, but I never hear him talking about any girlfriends.  The whole thing just got me more and more upset, and all the more determined to get this guy's attention.

I thought about it for a while, and then finally took off my jacket.  My face started to feel hot, especially since a lot of the other guys in the room started looking over at me and my bare shoulders.  I held my arms close to my body to hide my breasts from the side, but the whole feeling of having my bottom and breasts showing was getting me more and more nervous.  Hideki leered at me with this bug-eyed grin, but my mystery man kept looking straight ahead, looking out for their guests.

My uncle Yuuzou, Hideki's father, came over to our desk, and bowed low to thank me for helping them out.  I quickly stood up, and bowed back.  As I straightened up though, I realized that my prince charming over there had finally turned, and was looking at me.  I suddenly realized that my top must have fallen open at the side, and maybe he'd gotten a peek at my breasts.  I quickly straightened out my top, but there was something about the way he was looking at me, that made me pretty sure he'd seen my naked breast.  His whole expression had changed as if he was trying to hide how he was feeling.  I looked back at Hideki, but he was half listening to his dad, while sneaking the occasional peek at the crack of my bottom.  I tried to pull the dress up to cover, but I was feeling more and more exposed standing like that in this big hotel lobby.  I wished my uncle would go away, so I could at least sit back down again.  I talked with my uncle for a bit, but when I finally sat back down, my heart was tripping away.  I'm usually so careful when it comes to acting the good girl around my family, but maybe this time I'd gone too far agreeing to wear this dress.

I sat there in silence for a long time, while Hideki greeted all the arriving guests.  My mystery man would glance over at me every once in a while, making me even more nervous.  I didn't know what I should do..  I couldn't really go over, and introduce myself now that I'd kind of made a fool of myself in front of him.  I kept kicking myself for letting Ryosuke talk me into taking this silly dress.

After I'd been sitting there for a while brooding on my thoughtlessness, suddenly I felt something freezing slide over my bottom and down the back of my dress.  I stood up like a shot, but I could still feel whatever it was caught in my panties between my legs.  I looked over at Hideki and sure enough he was holding a cup of ice cubes.  He must have slid one down the back of my dress, the little creep.

"What on earth do you think you're doing?" I cried out, jumping around trying to shake the ice cube loose from my panties.

"You looked kind of heated up, so I though I'd help you cool down."  He nodded towards Prince Charming.  I was furious, but the feeling of the ice cube rubbing against my most sensitive place was getting me all flustered, so I stormed off to our cloak room.  Luckily, there was no one there, so I slid down my panties, and pulled out the ice cube.  I felt so incredibly angry.  This was all Hideki's fault.  He was ruining everything.  OK, well maybe I had got a little carried away mooning for Mr. Right there, but why did Hideki have to go, and humiliate me in front of everyone?

I felt my panties, and there were now soaking wet.  I slid the panties down my bare legs, and stepped out of them.  I felt really confused and exposed, but maybe even a bit naughty and excited standing in the hotel like that with nothing on under my dress.  It reminded me of the other day when I'd gone to eat supper with Ryosuke's friends with nothing on under my mini-skirt.  This image of our passionate encounter in the karaoke box flashed in to my mind, and it was getting harder and harder to calm down.  This is no time to be thinking about that.  I've got to go buy some fresh panties before I end up doing something crazy.

I picked up my purse, and stashed my panties away inside for now.  That other day, I'd walked around a couple of hours with no panties.  I could probably manage a quick dash down to the convenience store and back like this.  I took another look at the dress, but suddenly the slits seemed higher than I remembered.  My hips are fairly wide, and so you could see my tan lines from the sides a bit.  I couldn't figure out if I looked decent or not.  Anyway, if I just make it quick, probably no one will notice.

My plan was a good one I think, but unfortunately, my aunt spotted me half way across the lobby.  She came over, and started asking who hadn't arrived yet.  I told her to ask Hideki, but she said he seemed all mixed up, so she got me to come back over to the desk, and sort it out.

Hideki, of course, started staring at my bottom again, making me all the more nervous about how naked I was under the dress.  The American seemed to be watching me too.  I managed to concentrate enough to sort out who all was missing, but by then, it was getting time for the wedding reception to start.  My aunt wanted the two of us to come in, and stand by the door in case anyone else showed up.

I really wanted to get away, but I couldn't just disappear with everything starting.  I straightened out my dress as best I could, and followed my aunt into the hall.  I felt really self-conscious as like all my family and all these people I didn't even know kept looking over at me.  I just wanted to disappear, to blend into the wall.  The lights went down, and Namie and her groom Ryoichi came in, but there were all these people taking pictures this way with me standing there in this unholy dress.  I swear I felt like they were taking pictures of me on purpose.

The welcome speech finished, but then, my aunt told me to go sit with my family.  I was sure that Norika or my mom would notice (When I sat on the chair the slit opened even wider, so you could tell there was no way I could be wearing anything underneath), but luckily, they were too wrapped up in the excitement of the wedding and everything.  I kept waiting for a chance to slip away, but a few more guests showed up late, and I had to go out, and check them in.  Some of them were friends of the groom, and they were all joking that their friend had made the wrong choice when he chose Namie.  I just smiled weakly as they ogled my bare shoulders and legs.  Finally, they went in, but I had to go with them to show them to their seats.

You'd think I'd get used to walking around like that, with everyone staring at me, but it wasn't like that at all.  Every time anyone complimented me on my dress or even looked at me, I thought for sure that they could tell I was naked underneath.  I started thinking more and more about it, till that was all I could think about.  I even started praying for Ryosuke to come, and rescue me, but he wasn't supposed to come for a long while yet.

Somehow, I managed to last through the whole reception in my unseemly outfit.  At the end though, Hideki came over, and started in on me again.

"What happened to your panty lines?"

My parents and uncles and aunts were all nearby, so I just frowned at him, hoping he wouldn't say anything.  My dress was even sort of sticking to my skin by then, so much so that you could more or less see where the crack of my bottom was.  Finding this out got me even hotter.

"Reminds me of that time you ran bottomless around our house," Hideki cracked.  I glared at him even more, but I suddenly remembered how excited I'd gotten that time running around their house with all my cousins there so shocked that I wasn't wearing any bottoms.  Even one of Hideki's friends saw my most secret place when I tripped on the stairs, and went flying forward.  Oh god, I hope they're still not talking about that!

"That wasn't my idea; that was your mom!" I whispered sharply.  Aunt Sachi's ears pricked up, and she glanced over at us, but didn't saying anything.  She knows that the rest of our family is a lot more conservative about these things.  She pulled Hideki over towards her to get him to behave, and eventually I finally managed to slip away.  I put on my jacket, went to the washroom, and checked my panties in my purse, but they were still kind of wet.  I didn't see Prince Charming anywhere.  He must be still in his wedding.

I was about to go down to the convenience store when Ryosuke showed up.  Unfortunately, my mom spotted him first, and dragged him off to meet all my aunts and uncles.  I made some excuse, and finally went down to buy some fresh undies for myself.  The clerk in the convenience store gave me the strangest look.  I didn't care so much though.  I was just glad to be able to finally put something on.

When I got back, my family was grilling Ryosuke with all sorts of questions about what he wanted to do in the future and what his father did.  We had to eat supper with them, and by the time, we got away, it was getting pretty late, and I was kind of tired from all that had happened.  We just ended up riding the train for a while, and then went our separate ways.  I would have liked to have spent some time alone with Ryosuke in that hotel, but anyway, we didn't have the money for a room or anything, and my parents were expecting me back early.  Ryosuke did promise to come, and visit me at my house a few days later.

I have a whole bunch more I want to tell you about the trip, but I think I'll stop here for now, and write again soon.  Hope you are well.  See you.
