Gets out

I don't really know what I was thinking. Maybe I wasn't. Even looking back on it now, after all these years, I still don't know why I did it.

I stepped out of the car.

I do remember my hands shaking as I closed the door behind me. I remember the feel of my shoelaces brushing against my ankles, aware that they were the only clothing touching my body. I remember giving a heaving grunt as I opened up the hood, releasing a hiss of steam. I think somebody gasped in surprise, but that could have been the steam. My face was burning; again, could have been the steam, but I think it was embarrassment. I didn't dare look around me. I just focused on the engine in front of me.

"Crazy day." observed Jess as she sidled up alongside me. She was on the road side, however, so offered no protection from... no, I didn't dare think about watching eyes. My hands were shaking enough. Thankfully Lucy appeared on the other side, acting as a partial shield.

"Better hurry up," Lucy advised. "Before somebody calls the police."

"Just... just shut up." I said shakily.

My eyes darted around the engine block. Part of my brain was screaming that I was naked in public, but the rest of my was trying desperately to remember what I'd learned of car maintenance during a brief night class I'd attended. Steam suggested something to do with the radiator, I think. Something about it being loose. I'd have to tighten it.

I knew it would be hot, so I'd need some sort of material over my hand to touch it. I didn't have much at hand, so I kicked off my sneakers and pulled off my socks. Now completely, 100% naked, my bare soles felt soft against the rough, hard surface of the road. I placed my hand into one of the socks, then placed this into the other. Then I grabbed the radiator and twisted. The steam lessened.

"Quick, let's get back in the car." Lucy said, snatching up my sneakers from the ground.

Lucy and Jess moved back into the car, leaving me exposed once more. I reached up to pull the hood down. I don't think I've ever felt so **** in all my life than in that position. I pulled it down, turned around - and was confronted by a crowd of maybe five, six people, all staring at me. Some were mouth agape, some were grinning, others were leering. Covering myself with my hands, I lowered my head in shame and retreated to my door. I climbed back inside, started the engine and pulled away from the crowd, my face beet red.

I'd never felt more aroused in all my life.
