Goes badly

They made their way to the float, which was dedicated to the beach's lifeguards. Amber averted her eyes when she saw the lady lifeguard from a few weeks ago. The memory brought back some incredibly confusing feelings, as well as a pang of arousal.

"Alright, ladies," the lady lifeguard said. "We're marching quickly and thoroughly. Don't make too much of a show."

And then the parade started. They marched through the street, waving at everyone. Amber smiled brightly, waving with both hands, while Nora only waved with one (opting to keep another close to her thigh just in case).

As she moved, reality dawned on her; she was naked in front of so many people, and no one noticed. She felt a flutter in her stomach at the thought.

Amber was right. This was fun.

Nora glanced at her and her bright grin. Was this what she was looking for? A high? Or did she just like the attention? Either way, Nora knew that she was enjoying being naked for once. Her nipples were growing hard, and she was starting to get wet between the legs. When this was over, she was going to find a private corner somewhere and give her body some much-needed attention.

Wait. She was wet.

As they past the park, Nora slyly checked between her legs. Sure enough, her juices were flowing out. Hopefully, no one would notice. Carefully, she pulled her fingers away and looked at them.

Then went pale.

Her fingers didn't just have her juices on them; they had bits of the paint. Her juices were causing the paint to fade. Amber had said that this stuff was water-resistant, right?

But it was Amber. She probably overlooked at least one detail.

Either way, Nora needed to get out of here. Now.

"Amber," she said quietly.

"In the middle of something," Amber said, waving at a few boys with water balloons. They all stared at her, clearly forming their first crush as they gazed upon Amber.

"It's important," Nora said. "The paint. I don't think it's-"

Then the boys threw their water balloons at the girls. All the girls around the float spluttered as they wiped the water out of their eyes. Nora looked down at Amber and confirmed her suspicion.

The paint wasn't, in fact, water-resistant. Amber's bikini was slowly dissolving, and Nora's along with it. Nora grabbed her shoulders and shook her until she looked up. Amber blinked as she took in Nora's form, then blushed as she saw her paint fading away.

"Run?" Amber asked weakly.

"Run," Nora said.

And the girls ran from the parade and into the crowd. The lady lifeguard shouted after them but didn't dare leave her float. The girls pushed their way through the crowd, praying that the paint would last them long enough to get away.

Then they found a couple of bushes in the park and jumped over them, one after the other.
