Holly's homeward run

Holly felt the wind very keenly on her skin as she stepped out of the laundromat. She needed to get home without being seen or Rika and Alex would certainly get busted. Holly knew covering up would only make her nudity that much more obvious. From a distance, they might assume she just had a light-colored swimsuit on unless she was making a deliberate effort to hide her breasts and vagina.

"Alright, just got to keep calm and carry on," Holly said to herself with a giggle. Her house was really not far away, only a few blocks, so she started walking that way trying to stick to the areas with trees to provide some cover. She quickly made it off of the laundromat's property, across a small side street, behind a small cafe, and then crept through someone's unkempt yard. She had moved diagonally away from the laundromat, nearly parallel with her house, so now she needed to cut back the other way, but she was attempting to not move too close to the businesses in the area, at least not the front of them.

She walked carefully beside the house that the yard belonged to. Glancing around the corner, she saw no car in the driveway of it or the houses directly across the street, as she was across from a T-shaped intersection. so she walked carefully but quickly across the front yard, across the street, then across the next yard, making use of the tall garden plants to hide as she slid between them and the front of the house. She glanced inside the large front windows and was relieved to see no one was inside. She got to the corner of the house, continued down the garden to the next corner, and rounded it to the backyard.

Here Holly found herself blocked from going on by a fence going walkway across the backyard, so she made a mad dash for the fence and ran to the end. She looked around the end of the fence, seeing a very small backyard with no windows, so she slid to the other side of the fence. Resting for a minute to catch her breath, she felt the rough wood on her butt. "Almost there," she told herself, but in fact, she had only made it halfway from the laundromat to her house, as she took a very roundabout way. Last time she had taken a more direct path and had the cops called on her, although she wasn't sure if that happened before or after she had made the run for home, as she had spent some time running around in just panties and then had been kept out by Rika for 20 minutes once she had lost those.

Either way, she had gotten home about 5 minutes before the cops showed up. Thankfully no one had seen where she went to. Unfortunately, the cop car went door to door asking if anyone had seen someone streaking. Even worse, he had knocked on her door just as she came in from the backyard. Her front door had a small window that let anyone look in or out, and she had been trapped with nowhere to go but back outside to her backyard, a place the cops might be looking for a streaker to hide, or crouched right behind the door as Rika talked to the cop, having seen her sitting inside. The only way upstairs was visible from the front door, so Holly had run to the front wall and when the door opened, she dropped in front of it, inches from the cop and discovery. Thankfully Rika was able to convince the cop that she hadn't seen anything and he left, but the memory was a scary one.

After calming her breathing, Holly set off again, across the backyard she was in, and stopped at the big tree they had in their side yard. From here she could just see her house, but this side of the street wasn't safe any further down, as she would risk running into the daycare, so she had to sprint across the street to the cover of the trees and bushes before approaching her house from the back.

Just as Holly was about to make her sprint, she caught something out of the corner of her eye. She froze. Holly focused on where she had seen movement, and after a minute, she saw something that made her stomach fall out of her chest. A pale figure with long red hair had just moved from one tree to another, and then she saw it again. Holly was sure before she saw the small splash of red between the pale legs that it was Rika making her way to the still locked back gate. Holly needed to move now, so she looked briefly up the street to check the coast was as clear as it could be, and then ran full speed straight towards the red-haired girl in the trees. The road was hard and painful to run on but the danger to Rika being stuck locked out was worse.

Holly made it to the trees just behind Rika, who seemed to have seen nothing, and did her best to catch up as the naked girl dashed from tree to tree in a hurry to get to safety. Holly wasn't about to risk shouting to her friend, or startling her, so Rika got to the gate about 10 seconds before Holly, and stood tugging at the locked gate while Holly ran as fast as she could to get them both inside. Holly slammed into the wooden gate next to Rika who jumped back in surprise but made no sounds. Rika pushed the key into the gate and pulled it open.

The naked girls quickly dashed inside, leaving the gate slightly open. Holly made her way to the other two gates, opening them a crack, just in case, before seeking shelter inside with Rika behind her.
