Her friends helped her to a private room as Yukiko explained the situation

(chapter originally by faith on writing.com)

"This...this isn't what it looks like!" Yukiko stammered, pushing herself against the wall and hugging her private areas tightly with her hands, her body still trembling from ecstasy and humiliation "I was...shower!...and then...started to feel...oh no!...and then the hallway, and, and..."

Her eyes began to dance from one face to another, the expressions of her friends ranging from confusion to concern to a hint of restrained glee. "You...you all saw it!"

The most private, embarrassing thing a girl could do to her body, and Yukiko had done it right in front of her best friends! This was the most shameful, humiliating thing that had ever happened! Her shadow's monologues were nothing compared to this! This was so...so...

Yukiko gave a gasp of dismay and mewling protest as she felt a familiar surge of want and need pass through her blushing body. Her fingers covering her naked pussy instinctively parted her folds and softly began answering her body's cravings. Her other hand squeezed her ample breasts, toying with the erect nipples.

She closed her eyes a moment, then peeked back out at the stunned faces of her friends. Her mortification redoubled, and yet that iron will that had sustained her through two days of lustful arousal seemed to have abandoned her entirely. The hungry call from within her seemed to overawe any plea for decency from what was left of her sanity. "D-don't look at me!" Was all she managed as she gave her friends a second performance.

"Whoa." Monitor number 4 whispered. "That stuff doesn't mess around."

"Oh, its all about the adrenaline now." Kanshi said with a smirk. "If she manages to get a little peace and quiet she'll settle down, probably after a few good orgasms. But every time her adrenaline jumps up- like say, if she thinks she sees a ghost, or gets caught running around naked, the chems will spike right back into being as horny as she is right now. Best part is, the longer she gets exposed to the chems, even light doses like on her clothes, the big her 'spikes' are gonna be each time."

Yukiko was lost somewhere in a sea of lust and humiliation. She was acutely aware of the stares around her, but the pleasurable sensation her fingers were providing between her legs had become as intrinsic to her needs as breathing.

"Yukiko!" Chie said, suddenly very loud and much closer than Yukiko had remebered. "Yukiko, stop it!"

"Chieeeee." Yukiko moaned in misery and lust. "Its...so...humiliatiiiiiig!"

"That's enough." Naoto said, shaking her head. "Chie, Rise-san do your best to restrain her while you help her to her feet. We need to find a hiding place. Quickly."

Yukiko's eyes suddenly widened. "Nooooo. Don't let them find me like this!"

"Yes. Exactly. Is there anywhere on this floor that might be of use?" Naoto asked.

".....Room 204. Has...electrical problems. Aren't renting it out..." Yukiko said, trying her best to focus.

"All right. Come along...." Naoto said.

The next several moments were a tense game of hiding and scouting. There was one moment of total panic when an entourage of cooks passed down the hallway right past a potted plant. A single glance to the right would have allowed them to spot the horny, **** girl they occasionally worked under.

When the doorway to Room 204 slid open Yukiko practically fled into the room. Kneeling on all fours she began to once more pleasure herself with more vigor and desperation. The pause had been agony.

"Okay...how exactly did she wander onto the second floor totally naked and horny without getting caught?" Rise demanded.

"The ghost, I assume." Naoto said. "From the water and the lack of clothes, coupled with what she said, I'm assuming she was taking her shower when through means and reasons she doesn't understand she found herself on the second floor of her Inn. And soon after she found herself overwhelmed with...a need to do this."

Yukiko nodded slightly before giving a loud moan from her indulgences.

"Ace detective." Rise said. "But its a good thing we caught up to you! There's no way anyone would buy that story. Everybody else would think your just a huge pervert for sure."

Chie glared hard at the idol.

"Whoa whoa whoa! Don't kill the messenger! I'm just saying what everyone else is gonna think!" Rise said.

"Ahem. Which is why our first priority should be securing something for her to wear. I don't suppose you have anything in this room?"

"No...just the cot and the furniture. No linens or towels. Nothing to cover with..." Yukiko said in misery.

"Then we will find something suitable. Chie-chan, please keep an eye on her and make sure neither of you are discovered. Rise, help me search the area."

Soon the blond and brunette were alone in the dark. The silence was broken by a sudden, loud moan from Yukiko.

"Yukiko! If you don't stop, someone will hear you!" Chie chided her friend.

"I know! But I can't help it! You have no idea how hard this is..."

Chie bit her lip, took in a deep breath, and gently grasped her friend's hands and pulled them away from the girl's young body. In the process, she decided to pretend the strange moisture she felt was just water.

"See? Easy." Chie whispered.

Blushing and hanging her head, Yukiko whispered. "Yeah. Easy. And I can't even do that much."

"Yukiko..." Chie whispered.

"Look at me! I can't even...keep my clothes on for a whole day!" Yukiko whined.

"Hey! None of that!" Chie said, pointing at the other girl.

"None of what?" Yukiko said in a pout.

"None of that 'I'm so weak and worthless' crap! I know that look! And its not like you could have prepared for this or that you did something to deserve all this! None of us know how to fight a ghost! We're all flying blind here!"

"Says the girl who still has all of her clothes on." Yukiko muttered.

"Look. I'm sorry, okay? I'm not...good at this comforting stuff, you know! If that ghost had a face, I'd stomp it into nothing! You're better at the emotional support stuff!" Chie sighed.

"Are you...trying to get me to comfort you?" Yukiko asked in exasperation.

"Huh? What? No! Unless that'll distract you! Then I totally am!" Chie said.

"Sigh. You are pretty terrible at this." Yukiko said.

"Hey, if you-"

Chie gulped, finding a lot more of Yukiko's face and breasts much closer to her than she realized.

"You always have been there for me, haven't you?" Yukiko whispered.

"Err...well...yeah! We've been friends since grade school! Of course I've got your back!" Chie said nervously.

"I remember. Energetic, bold, tough Chie, driving away all the boys." Yukiko said in a whisper.

"Errr...I...yeah." Chie trailed off. "Sorry about that. I always thought I was protecting you, but...I guess I had other intentions, too. My shadow said-"

"I don't care about that!" Yukiko said suddenly. "So...so what if you were jealous of me? I'm...glad. You know? I was always in awe of you, too. Strong. Thin. Athletic...pretty."

"Wha? Uhh, Yukik-"

"And it turns out...you thought I was something worth being jealous of. Shy. Talentless. Worthless me." Yukiko said softly.

"Hey! What did I just say about that??" Chie snapped.

"I know. I know. But if it wasn't for you...and later, the others...that's how I would still think of myself. The only time I could laugh was around you. You were the only reason I could really enjoy myself." Yukiko said.

"Yukiko..." Chie sighed. "You know...you made me stronger when I was with you too. You remember?"

"Mmmm-hmmm. Its what you said after you saved me...hahaha...from myself! Saved me from myself!" Yukiko giggled.

Chie rolled her eyes, then gasped as she felt something soft pressing close to her.

"I...the shadow...said you were my prince. One of my princes."

"Yeah...and that I wasn't good enough." Chie said.

"Well, she doesn't know what she's talking about!"

"So I'm not your prince?" Chie asked.

"Of course not."

"Oh."

"Princes are male, you know. And its true, you act strong and courageous and cool like Yu and Yosuke...But you're still a girl. You don't pretend to be anything else like Naoto-chan. You're way too cute to be a true Prince."

"......" Chie suddenly found herself without a voice.

"So...I guess I'll compromise. The others can be my princes. And you can just be my hero." Yukiko laughed.

"Didn't...Marie say that was 'heroine'?" Chie said at last.

"Sigh. Chie...I need your help! I'm still...well, I still want to...but you won't let me! So..."

"....Wait. Are you..."

"You are my hero, right? You need to save me when I'm in distress!"

"Yukiko, come on, we...err...we can't...what if they come back?"

"...I need you, Chie. I won't...**** you..if..but I..if your willing...I need you so bad..."

"Yukiko..."

There was a long pause. Then, with a drawn in breath, Chie tentatively sought out the naked girl's lips. There was heavy breathing, fumbling in the dark, a tongue dueling her own, and surprisingly aggressive arms pulling at her jacket. Off the shoulders, down her arms, on the floor. A yellow top, black sports bra, shorts and panties joined it in short order. The last thought Chie had before getting lost in skin, and warmth, and wetness, and pleasure was that Yukiko had never been all that sad when Chie drove off all those boys even back then.
