Sammy, trying to hide

"Crap, crap, crap! I need to find a place to hide or all that money is as good as gone!" Sammy thought to herself as she ran down the halls of the old mall. She finally picked a random shop by the name of "Ties That Bind" and slipped in the door. The scent of latex hit her before she could even look around or catch her breath.

"W-woah."

Sammy was struck by the sight of gleaming rubber outfits and bondage gear all over the place. It looked like something out of a catalog for Sex Dungeon Monthly. What stood out the most in the shop was the pale redhead behind the register. She wore a shiny black longsleeve latex top that showed off her ample boobs. A strict rubber corset cinched her waist down a good few inches and pushed her boobs up, not that they needed the help. A dark green latex skirt completed the look and contrasted nicely with her fiery ponytail. "Welcome to my shop. My name is Cass. How may I help you today?" she spoke in a warm, inviting tone.

"Uh, uh, I-I..." Sammy shook her head and started over. "Uh, hello. My name is Sammy. Listen, I, uh, made a bit of a bet with my friends. We got bored and decided to play hide and seek. I know, kid stuff. Anyway, if the seeker wins, they get $100 from each hider. If the seeker gives up, they pay $100 to each hider they didn't catch. If only one hider wins, then they get $100 from the seeker and each of the other hiders, as well as free dinner. We got a 20 minute head start, but I kinda ran out of ideas and ducked in here hoping to get lucky. Would you maybe be willing to help me?" Sammy sheepishly poked her pointer fingers together as she waited for Cass to speak.

"Hmm...It's just me today, but not many people around right now. I suppose I'm free at the moment..." Cass put her chin in her hand and looked deep in thought for a moment. "What's in it for little old me?" she mused with a playful smile.

"Uhh, I hadn't really gotten that far yet." Sammy admitted as she scratched her head and tried to think.

"You're cute when you blush. How about this? Money's no problem for me. If I help you now, you can return the favor later. I'm sure we can think of something together. And this will probably be fun for both of us if all goes well.".

"Okay! What did you have in mind?" Sammy asked enthusiastically.

"I've got a few ideas. Some boring, some exciting, some risky since we're under a time crunch and your friends could walk in on us." Cass responded as she got up and cracked her knuckles, her gloved fingers squeaking in the process. "First, some questions. How flexible are you? Do you have any experience with bondage? What's a good safeword?"

"Oh, uh, okay. I did gymnastics from middle school through college, and two years of track. I tried fuzzy handcuffs with a boyfriend once. The handcuffs were alright, the guy is an ex though. What's a safeword?"

"Basically your sign you want to stop whatever we're doing immediately if it gets to be too much. Could be a specific word, could be a specific action if you can't speak. Like saying 'Paprika!', or grunting three times in a row, or just tapping me three times if I'm next to you. Whatever it is, I'll come running the second you do it, even if one of your friends is about to find you. Safety is the primary concern here." Cass explained.

"Wow, um, I-I guess Paprika works, or the other things you said. What now?" Sammy felt herself getting flustered just from a simple explanation!

"Your choice. You could just hide under the counter. Nobody is gonna try and look for you between my legs." Cass stopped to giggle when she caught Sammy blushing a deep red. "There's also the back room where I keep new stock. Just you and the boxes. Boring, but it works. But if you want to get risky..." Cass trailed off as she walked out from behind the counter, causing Sammy's jaw to drop when she saw the stunning knee-length platform rubber boots encasing Cass' long legs. Her skirt rippled and swished as each practiced step showed no sign of difficulty with the boots. "I can suit you up like this-" She stopped and gestured at a mannequin covered head to toe in latex and cuffs. "-and pretend you're one of my girls. I should have something in your size, or close enough. You'd be faceless and gagged, no chance of being recognized or giving yourself away, just a drone milling around the shop and attending to business. Fair warning, I might lock you in the suit until closing time if you choose this one. Just for funsies." Cass said with a wink and a smile that was far more playful than predatory. Sammy felt herself get red again.

"U-uh, I'm not sure yet. W-what else did you have in mind, Cass?" Sammy sputtered out in a growing fluster.

"I could also turn you into a display if that sounds fun. Something in the window if you wanna be really bold, or if you look up, you'll see a vacbed right over your head. I lower it, you crawl in and get comfy, I suck the air out until you can't move, then I hoist you back up to the ceiling. How hot would it be to hide from your friends right over their heads if they came in? I'm getting wet just thinking about it, honestly!" Cass giggled as Sammy looked up at the horizontal frame covered in a sheet of black latex over her head, with what looked like nose holes at one end, with a strange hand pump dangling from the bed just below the holes. She was so mesmerized, she didn't even catch Cass' joke. She finally snapped out of it and shook her head before turning back to Cass, who was beaming with pride at her selection of ideas.

"Oh, I almost forgot! There's a, uh, glory hole box in the wall of the dressing room at the end of the row. I could lock you in the box and you'd be stuck with your mouth open against the hole. It's a bit cramped in there, and I can't promise nobody would try to use it, but if you're interested..." Cass shook her head and dismissed the idea herself. "Nah. That would be a bit much, I think.". But when Cass looked back at Sammy, she was surprised to see her apparently thinking it over. She smiled and made her way back to the register and leaned against it, squeaking as her latex creaked.

"So what'll it be, Miss Sammy? Hide the boring way, or ditch your street clothes and hide in plain sight?"
