Her shirt got caught on a stair handrail!

Erica had almost reached the end of the staircase to the 3rd floor where her dorm was. She was content to just not care about anything else that could happen to her, but unfortunately that would change. She heard a ripping sound, then felt her shirt get a little looser. She took a look, and realized it ripped because the rail wrapped around at the end and her shirt got caught on the end of it!

The girl assessed the damage. It was one long rip, from the the bottom of her left sleeve. The shirt started to slide off of her chest, threatening to once again expose her breast had she not gotten her other arm up in time to hold the shirt in place. She could barely process how her luck was getting even worse now. Another accident, almost rendering her topless. In public. Again! Nevertheless, Erica kept moving towards her dorm room.

Her friend Alicia approached her when she'd gotten close to the door. "Hey! About time you showed up! What was the holdu-oh..." Alicia said while realizing Erica's state of dress - or rather, UNdress. Normally she'd tease her about it, but she knew this was one of those times that Erica would REALLY prefer not to be bothered. She watched as her friend made her way to her dorm and firmly opened and closed the door.

Erica released her grip from her shirt, glad to be home AND in private where no one could see her nearly exposed boobs now. She loved her body, don't get her wrong, but she wished she could be more in control of when she decided to show it off. Luckily, one of those times was fast approaching. She opened her dresser drawer to grab a bikini and get ready, but before she could pick out her favorite and finish disrobing, Alicia texted her.

"Hey girl u ok?"

"Im fine leave me alone."

"Ok. See u at the party downstairs."

Erica took a few deep breaths. She realized she'd have to apologize to Alicia later, and it was a bad idea to go to the party in an equally bad mood. She figured a short nap would help her calm down, so she plopped onto her bed, setting a an alarm to go off in 30 minutes. Hopefully she'd wake up refreshed and ready to swim, eat, chat, and dance the rest of the day away before the summer officially started.
