A nice enough group, a few girls and one guy

"O-okay," Candace hesitantly replied as she followed Abby towards the small group of waving students.

As they approached, Candace noticed each of the awaiting friends' eyebrows suddenly shoot up, no doubt at the surprise of seeing a cute naked girl walking their way. She wanted to make a **** attempt to run away, or to at least cover herself with her hands. But instead Candace **** herself to keep her arms in their neutral positions at her side, where they'd been. After all, wouldn't it be more embarrassing if she tried to start trying to cover herself now, after these new acquaintances had already seen her fully bared form?

"Guys, this is Candace," Abby introduced as she and Candace arrived.

The friend group had been three people standing there, meaning Candace was now standing surrounded by four fully clothed people. Abby on her right, two girls in front of her, and one boy on her left. A small shiver ran through her body as she noticed his eyes locked onto her breasts.

"H-hi..." she managed to meekly stutter.

"She was modeling for an art class when the fire alarm went off," Abby explained.

"Well that explains the nudity then!" the short girl with black hair standing in front of her said with a bit of laughter.

"That's Katie," Abby said, gesturing at her, before gesturing at the brunette girl and finally the red haired boy, "this is Melanie, and the one leering at you is Cameron."

"I am not leering!" he hastily said, his eyes finally snapping up to look at Candace's face. "I'm simply... respectfully appreciating a beautiful form. As an artist, surely you can understand that, right Candace?"

"Um," she muttered.

If he had asked her that in an objective scenario, she might have agreed with his statement. But, standing there fully naked in that moment, feeling his gaze on her, she was having a hard time feeling up for having a discussion on the nature of art and beauty. All she felt in that moment was a haze of embarrassment. The small circle of new friends in front of her was at least helping conceal the front half of her bare body from the sizable crowd, but Candace was acutely aware that anyone and everyone who had evacuated the building could likely see her bare ass quite well.

"I bet this has never happened to you when nude modelling before, eh?" Melanie asked with a smile. "Talk about rotten timing!"

"Yeah this is, uh, certainly a first!" Candace replied, trying to put some humor into her words.

"Have you modeled for art classes often?" Katie asked.

"Um, a few times," Candace lied.

In truth, today was her very first time doing so. But for some reason it felt more embarrassing to admit that. Almost as if it would underscore just how disastrously her first time live modeling was going for her.

"Ah, that explains how you're holding up so well to being naked outside in front of everybody," Melanie said. "You're used to it. I think I would just about die of humiliation if I was in your shoes!"

The group all laughed a little at that, even Candace. Though hers was quite ****. She felt like she was, in fact, a few moments away from dying of humiliation! Her face was beginning to get slightly flushed, and her heart was pounding in her chest. But she **** herself to stand there as if absolutely nothing was wrong.

"I know you said you're fine and all, but I still feel bad I don't have anything to lend you to help cover up," Abby chimed in, once again reaching out to gently rub Candace's bare arm. This once again sent a wave of energy through Candace's body at the contact. The naked girl opened her mouth as if to reply, but found no words coming out.

"Cameron, lend her your shirt at least," Melanie scolded the lone boy of the group.

Candace felt her pulse quicken a bit more at that. It was far from perfect, but the gray T-shirt he was wearing would make a world of difference for the naked girl.

"What? Why do I have to?" he griped.

In response, Melanie wordlessly gestured to the shirts of the other three girls. Each was wearing a thin tank top, thanks to the hot weather. None of the girls had anything they could lend without exposing themselves instead of Candace.

"Okay, point taken," he relented. "But I'd rather keep my shirt on, thanks. Besides, she just said she's fine!"

Candace balked at that. She certainly hadn't said she was fine just now! It had been Abby who had just repeated her earlier comment about being fine without any clothes (a statement Candace was regretting making even more each passing second).

"You do this all the time, right?" Cameron asked, directly addressing Candace. "Being naked in front of people for art classes and stuff, right?"

The naked beauty froze. She'd fibbed and said she'd modeled a few times, but Cameron seemed to have taken her comment to the ****.

"Not... not all the time!" she managed to say.

"Okay, just sometimes then," Cameron digressed. "My point is you're used to it. And if it's all the same to you, I'd rather keep my shirt on."

Abby seemed like she was about to step in and say something, but suddenly the blaring horn of a fire truck seized everyone's attention. As the truck pulled up next to the building and several firefighters poured out of the vehicle, Candace felt whatever chance she'd had at borrowing a shirt quickly slip away. At least most of the crowd was now focused on watching them prepare to put out the fire, rather than on Candace's naked body.

One firefighter approached the crowd of students, holding a megaphone in front of his mouth to be heard over the commotion.

"Attention everyone!" he said, loud enough that everyone could hear.
