Try to retrieve the panties, but things get problematic.

Not having panties on was going to be problematic. Anna couldn't go without them despite the itch the brought forth earlier. Somehow she was going to have to get them. With the zipper on her skirt broken, Anna had to be careful, every movement had to be calculated and done carefully.

Reaching towards her ankles where her panties sat could put unnecessary strain on the damaged zipper. Maybe if she took them off completely she could pick them up at a less stressful angle. With a careful glance around to ensure nobody was looking directly at her, Anna carefully moved her legs to pull her feet through her panties. First the right leg slipped, through, and then the left.

Her panties sat on the floor, free from her ankles. Anna took a deep breath, and prepared for her next move. Somehow she had to get those panties in her hands. Maybe if they were directly underneath her? She carefully planted one of her feet on her panties and tried to pull her leg back to bring it directly under her seat.

As she did this though, a noise startled her!

"Hmm!" Somebody coughed.

Anna's eyes went wide, as her foot slipped suddenly. She glanced around frantically, and saw a few rows over, another student putting a fist near his mouth as he coughed again before going back to work.

The pantieless girl sighed with relief. For now, she was undiscovered. She glanced down at the floor where her panties should have been, and instead saw nothing on the floor. That caused a small sinking feeling in her stomach. She looked around behind her, being as silent as she could so not to draw attention. Being in the last row, there were no other students behind her. She could see her panties pooled against the back wall, as a result of her panicked kick.

Her panties were now out of easy reach. There was no way for her to reach them without getting up out of her seat. Getting up was likely to draw attention from the teacher... only Mister Smith wasn't at the front of the classroom. Her panty problem was distracting her from class, and she had no idea what was going on. The class seemed largely uninterested, and some even seemed half asleep.

If she were to get up and grab her panties, now was the time to do it. But what about the students closest to her? Did she dare risk them noticing her? Maybe it was better to wait until after class...
