A Walk In The Sun

"It's almost gone," Anna said as she scrubbed the "9" on the small of my back with soap. We were in the shower together and I was facing the wall with two hands pressed against it and my feet spread to steady myself. It turned out that removing these numbers was much easier as a two person job which would definitely make the post-shift showers more interesting for onlookers in the new Mailgirls locker room.

"Good enough," Anna said as she reached her soapy hands around and began kneading my breasts, pressing her body against my back as the warm water cascaded over us.

"I don't have any numbers to wash off there," I murmured. It had been an emotionally exhausting day for me and the combination of the warm water and Anna's touch felt wonderful.

"That's okay, I want to make sure I didn't miss any," she giggled. Her hands began working their way down my stomach and I let out a moan as her fingertips brushed across my pussy lips.

"We shouldn't do this here," I protested weakly. "Someone might walk in."

"Barbara let us off early," Anna said. "There shouldn't be anyone coming in here for awhile. Besides she said I was in control of you now and you have to do what I say."

"Yes I do," I replied, not really wanting her to stop anyway. This might be the last time we'd have any privacy together in the work showers.

"Bend over more," Anna ordered and I obeyed as she removed her hands and soaped them up again. She slid two fingers into my pussy from behind and began stroking, then reached out and grabbed my hair with her other hand. I was in a very submissive and compromising position now and knowing that someone could walk in on us like this only helped fuel my fire.

"Do you like that, slut?" she asked.

"Oh yes," I moaned, a little shocked by the word "slut."

As her fingers pounded my pussy increasingly faster and with more force, my moans grew louder. Thankfully the sound of the running water helped muffle them and when the orgasm came it was a big one. It was my second one of the day and I hadn't even left work yet.

After it was over Anna looked at me a little sheepishly. "I'm sorry I called you a slut. I didn't mean to." She had been researching knot tying on the internet to learn ways to tie me up for our "tickle games" and had become fascinated with the BDSM videos she'd discovered. Now, it seems, my sweet little Anna was adopting some of the language from them.

"That's okay," I said. "I'm yours to control now. You can call me whatever you want." I surprised myself by how eager I was to cede control to her.

"You're not mad?" Anna asked.

"No," I said with a smile as I leaned in and kissed her. "Do you want me to do you now?"

She shook her head. "Not here. Let's go home."

I dried off and examined my body in the mirror. Faint images of the number "9" could still be seen and I decided there had to be an easier way to remove ink than using soap and water. I'd research it later when I got back to the condo.

"Look what I found in the locker," Anna said excitedly as she held up a pretty yellow cotton dress. "Barbara must have had someone put it here for me. Oh, and some cute leather sandals, too!"

"Very nice," I said, feeling a little envious. I knew there wouldn't be any dress or sandals for me to wear on my walk home. Anna also discovered a neck pouch with a lanyard that contained the condo key card along with a new company ID badge. She pulled it out and showed it to me. Her name was listed as "1" with her real name in parenthesis in much smaller print, and instead of the usual head shot the picture was a very revealing nude shot of Anna in the kneeling position. Even the company ID's were made to be as humiliating as possible for the mailgirls. I checked the locker but there was no condo key or ID badge for me. The message was clear: I wouldn't be able to enter either the condo or the DDE complex without being escorted by Anna.

"Are you ready to go?" Anna asked after finishing dressing.

"Yeah," I nodded. "I like your outfit, Anna," I added with a twinge of jealousy.

"Thanks. I like yours, too," she giggled.

''Do you?" I asked. "It's the latest in the Mailgirl line by Versace." I began walking like a model on a catwalk past Anna, then twirled and struck a pose.

"Bravo!" Anna shouted as she laughed and clapped and I broke out laughing, too. Even after all of the craziness of the day just a few minutes with Anna had me feeling rejuvenated. The orgasm in the shower hadn't hurt either.

I gave her a hug and then followed her out the door of the locker room into the basement corridor. Instead of turning left, though, toward the exit we'd been using when escorted by the security guard she turned right toward the stairs. "Where are we going?" I asked.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. We have to use the main employee entrance from now on."

"Did Barbara tell you that?"

"No, Donna did," Anna replied. The main employee entrance was on the eastern end of the north wing and getting there from here would lead me away from the most direct path to the condo. Not only would it add time to my nude walk home, it would mean walking along the busy road just north of the complex instead of merely having to cross it. It would double the length of my nude walk each day, both ways. I had no doubt about where this order originated. As I expected, Donna Haverly was nothing more than Barbara's puppet.

"Did Donna tell you anything else?" I asked.

"Yes. Whenever we're off duty and out in public together I'm supposed to be dressed and you're supposed to be naked walking a step behind me with your eyes lowered. And you're supposed to treat me like I'm a superior and call me ma'am and all that."

"Did she say anything about me wearing a collar?"

"No," Anna replied. "Nothing like that." Not yet anyway, I thought.

"Anything else?"

"Nope, that's pretty much it. Donna seems almost worse than Barbara in making you do all that."

"She's not the one making me do it," I said. "Donna's mouth is moving but Barbara's words are coming out."

The images that Barbara planted in my head today of my future had already had a disturbingly powerful effect on me. The vision of walking nude and collared down the street a step behind her or kneeling next to her table in a restaurant sent waves of conflicting emotions through me. Before I met Barbara it would've seemed inconceivable to me that something like that could ever take place in the modern world, but I'd long ago stopped underestimating her and now this future seemed very possible. Knowing there was someone in the world capable of making that happen was both scary and thrilling.

I realized now, though, that this wasn't just some distant dream for Barbara, she was already taking steps to make it happen. She was sending me out in public with Anna as her surrogate to gauge public reaction to naked servitude beyond DDE's walls. It was a fishing expedition with me as the bait.

We entered the stairwell now and climbed to the entrance to the first floor of the north wing. "Are you ready?" Anna asked. When I nodded in the affirmative she said, "I think you should stay a step behind me, like we were told."

"Yes ma'am," I responded. Anna opened the door and I followed her through it.

The north wing of the DDE complex was the home of the company's game and film production departments which were the company's big moneymakers. In other words it was where the bulk of the real work took place. The environment here was also far more casual than in the tower or the south wing and the standard work uniform here was blue jeans, sneakers, and untucked t-shirts. It was also a generally younger crowd with many of the employees in their twenties, making this the area most likely to embrace the concept of nude mailgirls. My walk through the building confirmed that.

The ground floor of the north wing consisted mainly of production and administrative offices and wasn't as open as the floors above, but the corridor leading to the employee entrance was a busy one. Most of the employees here were getting their first look at a nude mailgirl and hoots, whistles, and applause greeted me as I walked behind Anna. Feelings of arousal were stirring again as dozens of eyes gawked at me. Several people asked if they could pose with me for pictures but Anna rejected them saying it wasn't allowed. I remained quiet, walking submissively behind her with my eyes lowered.

We finally reached the lobby for the employee entrance and Anna flashed her employee badge at the male African-American security guard manning the desk. He did a double take when he saw the nude picture on Anna's ID, then he turned his attention to me. "Is she going outside like that?" he asked.

"Yes. I'm supposed to escort her in and out each day and she'll be naked. Did anyone tell you about that?"

"I heard something about it but I didn't know she'd be buckass naked. Damn!" he said with a broad smile and a shake of his head.

"Is that going to be okay?" Anna asked.

"Oh, hell yeah," he laughed. "No problem at all!" He jumped from his seat and walked to the glass double doors and opened one for us. "Have a nice day ladies," he said as we stepped outside.

Despite everything that had happened today it was still only about four in the afternoon so the employee parking lot was still full. It was a warm summer day and a gentle breeze caressed my bare skin as we began our walk toward Jefferson Avenue, the busy street that ran past the north side of DDE property. The parking lot pavement was warm, but thankfully not too hot beneath my bare feet.

"Are you okay, Danica?" Anna asked.

"Yes ma'am," I replied, although that wasn't entirely true. My anxiety had increased a hundredfold the moment I'd stepped outside the doors of the building. Inside the complex at least I knew that my nudity was sanctioned and the employees were aware of the reason for it. Out here that wasn't the case. This truly was virgin territory.

Rush hour was just beginning to ramp up on Jefferson as we reached the sidewalk that ran parallel to it and I was startled by a horn blast from a passing car. I can't believe I'm doing this, I thought to myself. It was far from the first time I'd had that thought over the past few months but Barbara seemed to be able to continuously push my boundaries and make those previous experiences seem relatively tame by comparison. I knew this was another step in her plan to turn me into her nude slave, and yet another step for me away from who I used to be.

I followed behind Anna as we made our way west toward the crosswalk that would lead us to the condo. This wasn't really a pedestrian area so we were the only ones on the sidewalk, but cars continued to rush by going both ways and I could only imagine what their occupants must have thought when they saw me. On my left we were walking back past DDE's north wing toward the tower, and on the other side of the street was the gated south boundary to our condo complex. There was no entrance on that side, though, so we'd have to walk down to the crosswalk, cross Jefferson, and then walk another block to the gated entrance to the condos.

I placed one bare foot in front of the other and as I looked down I could see my nipples had grown rock hard. They were normally perpetually erect anyway in the air conditioned office building, but the combination of the breeze and my growing arousal were having an even greater effect on them. As we neared the crosswalk I looked up and saw an elderly gentleman standing there waiting for the signal to change and watching my approach with keen interest. Probably a resident from the area out for a stroll, I thought.

When we joined him he turned and looked me over from head to toe. "Out getting a little afternoon sun today?" he said to me with a chuckle.

"Yes, she is," Anna replied before I could respond. I remained a step behind her with my eyes lowered.

"Does she speak?" he asked.

"Only when I allow it," Anna said.

"Ah," he replied and I couldn't tell if he was amused or shocked by that. He didn't say anything more, though, and when the light changed we crossed together as the drivers in the cars waiting at the light got an eyeful of me. On the other side the man turned right as Anna and I continued forward. When he was out of earshot Anna started laughing. "Only when I allow it!" she said loudly, repeating what she'd told the man. "God you should have seen his face when I said that. I thought his eyes would come right out of his head!"

"Yes ma'am," I replied. To Anna this was all just one big exciting game. I suppose it was a game to me as well as I continued playing my role as Anna's slave, but one with much higher stakes.

We continued walking until we reached the entrance gates to the condo complex. There was no guard shack here but entrance required a key card and Anna used hers to open the pedestrian gate. This was the first time I'd been outside in this area naked, but it was quiet right now with most of the residents at work across the street. I breathed a sigh of relief after we climbed the steps to the entrance to Barbara's condo and Anna opened the door. My god what a day this had been!

After we were inside Anna turned to me and planted a wet kiss on my lips. "Oh my god, Danica, that was so exciting! And just think, we get to do that every day!"

Every day, I thought to myself. And every day I'll be getting further and further away from who I once was toward the future that Barbara had laid out so clearly for me.
