Hannah amuses Chloe

Chloe stared at the arch high above her head, the words ‘AMUSEMENT PARK’ written across it in large, bold wooden letters. The paint was faded and weathered, like it hadn’t been maintained in over a decade, which made sense because Chloe had never realised that this place even existed until now. Hannah had been coy and secretive the whole journey from the cabin. She said she wanted to surprise her, and it worked. Chloe was definitely surprised. She followed the blonde through the arch into the amusement grounds proper, looking around at all the attractions and rides.

It immediately became clear why Chloe hadn’t been here before. It was a dump. It had none of the flair and appeal of the big amusement parks that came to mind when she thought of theme parks and the such. This was more like an old fun fair, like the kind their grandparents might have known, littered with stalls and side attractions selling food and drink, and in the distance, behind those was a Ferris wheel, and she was surprised to see that it was turning, and that there were people on board. A handful of people milled about, mostly older folks out for a day with their grandchildren.

“Not to be rude, I mean, I’m grateful you got me out of the cabin for a while,” Chloe remarked hesitantly, not wanting to offend. “But, why did you bring me here?”

“I like it here,” Hannah replied, gazing up at the Ferris wheel in the distance. “Our family used to come here when we were kids during Halloween and Christmas. During the holidays they would decorate the place, and they’d put up a haunted house or a Santa’s grotto. It was always so pretty at those times. This…this doesn’t do it justice.”

“Did they stop?” Chloe asked, looking around again, imagining how it would look with pumpkins and orange and green banners and plastic bats. “You said they used to put on events, but it doesn’t seem like they do that anymore.”

“I think they still do the haunted house at Halloween, though the Santa’s grotto has moved to the mall. It’s more like…they just don’t know what to do with the place at any other time of the year,” Hannah explained wistfully. “But the reason we don’t come anymore is because we grew up. We don’t do family outings to places like this anymore.”

“That’s sad. Not the growing up part, I mean,” Chloe said, sympathetically. “This place just looks like it has a lot of potential, it’s kind of sad that they’re not even trying.”

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to bum you out,” Hannah chuckled. “I was just trying to think of somewhere interesting and unusual to take you. And as small as Azure Rocks is, people seem not to notice this place. They just drive past it.”

Chloe nodded along, thinking back down and remembering that she did indeed pass this lot often. Just as Hannah said, she never noticed it, mistaking it for a junkyard. “We should go check out what events they’ve got on at the minute,” the redhead suggested, trying to rectify her previous disappointment with the park.

“At Spring Break, it’s usually just a Punch and Judy show, but yeah, we can go see what they’ve got on,” Hannah said, turning her eye to the stalls. “First though, cotton candy.”

Chloe laughed as she followed the older blonde. Hannah asked for two, and paid, handing Chloe her ball of edible pink fluff on a stick and taking her own, thanking the man as the girls returned to the path, following it around the park as they ate.

“Geez, I haven’t had cotton candy in so long,” Chloe reminisced as she bit into the candied floss. “Makes me feel like a kid again.”

“I love it. It’s so sweet, and I can never get enough of sweet things,” Hannah said, chewing on her own, and then, “And that’s why I’m here with you.”

Chloe chuckled at Hannah’s teasing, and then, as she tried to take another bite of her candy, “It’s so damn hard to eat though. It’s like biting into air. Sticky, sweet air.”

“Sticky, sweet…hm, reminds me of something else,” Hannah smirked as they turned the corner, her eyes seeing then what they had chosen to replace the Haunted House and Santa’s Grotto with. “Oh my god!”

Chloe’s eyes widened at the sight too. A stage had been erected and upon it, five women strutted around to the beat of ‘After Dark’ by Tito Y Tarantula. That by itself might not have been shocking but the girls were seductively dressed in corsets and stockings, thin flowing skirts and robes and they were already discarding their robes just as Hannah and Chloe arrived to take in the show. They danced around for several more seconds, rotating the girls that were up front, before turning, bending over and with one hand, each of them simultaneously unzipped their skirts and tossed them aside.

“How is it…” Chloe pondered aloud, still eating her cotton candy. “That in a town where a girl can’t easily access the pill, they can put on burlesque shows in broad daylight like this?”

Hannah laughed and shrugged. “It’s pretty silly, right? But these types of shows are just seen as good fun. No one expects a burlesque show to taint your soul. Not that they should think the pill will either, but I guess it’s more modern and scary.”

Chloe nodded agreeing, as she watched the women on stage shake and shimmy, lifting their legs and wiggling their butts to show off all the new skin the loss of the skirt had exposed. Then, with their backs turned to the small audience of mostly men, they unclasped their bras, walked to the back of the stage and all at once slipped the garment from their shoulders and, with one hand, dropped them on the stage.

“It’s obviously a double standard,” Chloe insisted. “If it were a bunch of guys up there getting undressed for women, it’d be perverse. But for men, it’s just boys will be boys. A striptease is just good old fashioned fun, like a boxing match or something.”

“I have to say, I don’t mind the girls that are up there at all. They’re all so gorgeous,” Hannah licked her lips, her eyes sparkling as she watched the women move around the stage again, shaking their tits, through a sheer leotard. Then, glancing at the red head by her side, “Though not as pretty as the girl I’m with.”

Chloe chuckled again at Hannah’s teasing but shook her head. “No way I could do that though.”

“Why not?” Hannah encouraged her, tilting her head. “You’re as beautiful as any one of those girls and the whole world should know it.”

“I just…I’m not very confident in my own skin. I don’t mind stripping, in the comfort of somewhere I know, with someone-”

“Or three,” Hannah corrected her with a smirk.

“Or three people I know,” Chloe said, blushing. Hannah’s eyes were making her feel very warm, so instead she focused on looking at the stage, where the dancers were unzipping their corsets their bodies bare except for the leotards, stockings and heels. “But I don’t think I could ever do something like this. Have…have you?”

“How do you think I keep my body so fit and trim?” Hannah asked playfully, posing to show off her curves in her tight office attire. “Well, not quite. I take pole dancing lessons, and I mean, you don’t have to strip, but it just feels natural, don’t you think? But, pole dancing is honestly really good for keeping you in shape.”

“So, you’ve never actually stripped in public?” Chloe asked, allowing herself to look at the older blonde girl again.

“Well...there was one time. There’s a strip club near our college and it was having an amateur night with a prize of $1000.” Hannah told her, watching as the girls on stage danced around for a few seconds more, then began slipping the straps of the leotard off their shoulders. "A bunch of my college friends who were in the same pole dancing class decided to do it, to test how good our skills were on an actual crowd.”

“And?” Chloe asked, so eager to know that she was ignoring the girls on stage as they pushed the leotard of their tits, their large breasts bare now, nipples obscured by tape. “Did you win?”

“Of course,” Hannah said confidently, but her face was also rather flush.

“How naked did you have to get?” The redhead pressed her, as the girls on stage shook their nearly bare tits for the tiny crowd.

“Well…all the other girls were too embarrassed to take off their panties, but I knew I had to go the extra distance if I wanted to win the money. So, yes, there may be a strip club full of people that have seen my pussy, I’ll admit,” Hannah answered, smirking.

“Damn, Hannah, you’re so daring,” Chloe complimented her, as she looked back to the stage, just in time to see the girls pushing the leotards down their waists. “They’re not going to take that off, are they?”

“No way. They’ll have g-strings on underneath,” Hannah said, only to be proven wrong as the dancers pushed the bunched-up clothing down past their hips and there was no string to be seen. “Oh wow, maybe not.”

The women turned, pointing their asses out as they bent over slightly and rolled the material down over the mound of their cheeks. Chloe gasped as all five women’s bare buttocks were revealed to the audience, as the women left the leotard wrapped up just beneath their butts, creating enough shadow and darkness to hide what was between their thighs. They walked around, with tight small steps, changing up the order again, then stopping, facing forward now, and in one quick, smooth motion, bent over and pulled their leotards all the way down to their feet. Their bodies blocked the sight of what they had revealed, but as they stepped out of the last piece of clothing, they ever so slowly straightened up to show that each one was wearing a glittering, diamond patterned c-string.

Hannah fanned herself with her hand and laughed, “damn, I was all set to see five pussies too.”

“Yeah, I gotta admit, that was quite good. Very tantalising…” Chloe agreed, a warmth spreading throughout her body and remembering the c-string she’d seen in Heather’s suitcase. “…very cool.”

“Then maybe we should get wet to cool down,” Hannah suggested.

Chloe gasped at Hannah being so forward so suddenly, turning to see the blonde bounding off in the direction of a water gun shoot out game. The redhead laughed at her own mind going to the gutter so quickly as she dashed off to join the blonde at the stall. Having finished their cotton candy, they trashed the sticks and took their places at the guns. At the ding, they both began, shooting water, both doing their best to burst the balloon. Chloe had the better gun, with higher pressure, but she wasn’t used to it and the pressure threw off her aim. Hannah, conversely, had a weaker gun, but she was well experienced in these types of games and capable of impressive accuracy. Eventually, the older girl won, popping her balloon with a cheer and winning a cuddly brown bear teddy, which she gave to Chloe.

“For me?” Chloe stammered as the bear was thrust into her hands.

“Sure, so you can remember today,” Hannah said, already turning to look around as Chloe looked at the bear. “Wanna go on the Ferris wheel next?”

“I…sure,” Chloe agreed, thinking.

“There was a magic carpet ride as well, once upon a time,” Hannah explained as they walked towards the only ride in park. “But. I guess it got discontinued. It’s no big loss, it was pretty slow and nauseating at the same time, somehow. Without it the park looks really empty though.”

Chloe nodded along with Hannah’s conversation, without replying, still staring at the bear and thinking. She followed the blonde on to the Ferris wheel stage, Hannah paying the man and the pair sitting in one of the cars. It took several minutes before the ride began, a few others paying and being seated before the wheel began to turn proper. Hannah looked out over the town, seeing Robert Raver’s business tower stretching high above the Ferris wheel, while Chloe sat, bowed head, still gazing intensely at the bear on her lap.

She’d never questioned why Hannah had wanted to take her out for the day. The older blonde had simply said they she wanted to meet up and Chloe, being bored, had jumped at the chance to leave the house. She had thought at one point perhaps Hannah had something to tell her, but then they arrived at the amusement park and everything had been so much fun that she never thought about why.

Chloe looked at the bear and did what Hannah said, she remembered. She remembered Hannah’s constant compliments of how beautiful she was, how Hannah paid for her cotton candy and games and rides, that Hannah had rang her to ask to meet up. And she’d won her a toy. If this were a boy, Chloe thought to herself, she’d think this was a date. But last night Hannah had admitted being bi-sexual and experimenting with other women, so, Chloe wondered if perhaps Hannah did see this as a date, and Chloe was just too naïve to realise.

“Hannah,” Chloe whispered, looking at the blonde and finding that she was gazing back at her with beautifully striking eyes, blonde hair cascading around her face. Swallowing and gathering her thoughts, Chloe asked, “Is this a date?”

The older blonde didn’t speak. She simply licked her lips, her mouth parting slightly as she leaned in, the air catching in Chloe’s throat as Hannah’s face inched closer and closer to her own, eyes still trained on each other.
