With a close call

The seven highschoolers ambled out of the limo, gathering in a group on the curb. All around them were other students, likewise dressed in tuxedos and gowns, in their own various groups. A few were making their way inside but most had just arrived and were eagerly chatting about the night to come. Mackenzie was the last one out and the driver closed the door behind her before hurrying back towards the front of the car.

"Here we are!" Lily said excitedly as they took in their surroundings. "I can't believe it!" Garret protectively put a thick arm around her slender torso, pulling her close.

Ryan turned to Mackenzie, likely to do the same, when his eyes went wide. He quickly leaned forward and grabbed the door handle of the limo. He yanked the door open and barely half a second later the limo sped forward.

"Asshole..." Ryan muttered, glaring at the departing limo.

"What's wrong?" Mackenzie asked him.

Ryan hesitated for a moment before whispering in Mackenzie's ear, "The driver shut the door on the end of your dress."

Mackenzie's eyebrows shot up and her face began to flush slightly as she realized what Ryan meant. If he hadn't dove for the door just now, her dress would have almost certainly been torn by the departing car, if not ripped off her body entirely. She had been this close to being exposed in front of all her classmates!

"Th-thank you... oh my god..." she said, leaning against him and suddenly feeling slightly woozy.

"It's alright," he reassured. As he had gotten to know Mackenzie better, he had gotten a better understanding for just how nervous the thought of being exposed in public made her. Sure, nobody liked the idea of being undressed and embarrassed in a public place, but to Mackenzie it was a downright phobia. Maybe it was because of her hellish experience in the mall so long ago, which would be understandable. And yet, not for the first time, Ryan mused about how the girl who insisted on wearing shorts under her skirts on slightly breezy days was the same girl that had eagerly given him a blowjob in the dressing room of a busy department store. She was an enigma he delighted in unraveling. "You're fine now. No one even saw it." he reassured her.

But one person had seen the scenario unfold. Across the circle of friends, Jess stood dumbstruck. She had just seen Mackenzie's dress nearly ripped off her body! She was glad her friend hadn't been hurt or exposed and yet... She had just narrowly missed seeing Kenz standing in front of the school wearing nothing but her underwear. If she was even wearing underwear! Jess had certainly seen Mackenzie in underwear before, but never naked. Not for the first time, Jess's mind swarmed with thoughts of her bombshell of a friend standing completely naked in front of this crowd of onlookers, caught by surprise and overwhelmed with embarrassment. With her ride and dress gone, she'd be stranded and helpless as the crowd circled around her...

"Jess?" Mackenzie asked aloud. "You okay?"

Jess shook her head, snapping herself out of her sudden fantasy and said, "Uh, yeah! Let's go already!"

Mackenzie idly noted that her friend had been zoning out and shaking her head more often these days, but the thought quickly fled her mind as she accompanied her friends and their dates inside the school.
