The girls were not being entirely honest.

Upon seeing the despair on my face, Carrie decided to come clean about the new rule. "Don't worry, Erica," she tried to say. Since everybody, including herself were laughing, it was difficult for her to get the words out. "We lied about the masturbation rule.”

My panicked face turned into one of confusion. Lisa grinned, enjoying my discomfort. “We’re not gonna make you go around naked, or force you to masturbate outside the cabin,” she said.

"Aw, I wanted to lead her on some more," Tammy pouted, upset that the joke was up.

“Don't worry, by the end of camp, Erica herself might be begging us to let her do it,” Lisa said, giving me a knowing look.

Once again I felt my shame rise.

“Come on in, Erica, before you catch a cold,” Alicia said. I got up and ran past them into the cabin. Of course, they each gave me a smack on the ass as I passed them by.
