Ashley at Work
By Jappio

Part 5

Ashley finally heard the guests, but it did not ease her worries at all. She heard a few muffled sounds, but made out a few words, “What should we do with this?” and “We should take it to the lost and found. They’ll be looking for it I bet!”

Ashley’s first worry was obvious. The room had been empty besides her clothing!

Ashley tried to hope it was something else, anything else. She desperately wished she could look out, but she couldn’t risk being caught. She instead shifted around till her ear was to the door, her feet knocking into more items, her body shaking with more than just fear.

She heard the door open again. “Guys! Where were you?!” came the voice. It did sound somewhat familiar to Ashley. Things were again muffled for a bit, but then she heard, “Wait, what’s with the bra?”

Ashley knew it, it really was happening. Her bra was found! The only hope she had left was that maybe it was just the bra, as the shorts and shirt weren’t laid on top of the machine after all.

“Hand the shirt over…” she partially heard. She knew now for sure all her clothes had been scooped up by these guests. Ashley tried to wonderful what she’d be able to do.

“…go to the lost and found first. Then the sauna…” was the next thing Ashley could make out. Though she was in trouble, a brief ray of hope did shine. She would perhaps be able to get out of this before others could enter the exercise room.

Again Ashley couldn’t hear the girls outside her little box, but after a short time, she did hear what sounded like a door. Ashley had a 50/50 shot that she was either left alone or more people came in. The gym was slow; Ashley should still have time before things picked up. She carefully opened the door.

Scanning the room, Ashley could see she was alone again. She let herself slip free from her tiny compartment. Ashley looked back only to see if maybe something could provide cover, but nothing would really help hide her exposure in a meaningful way.

She nearly cursed out loud when she thought about how just earlier she’d been in this room and took all the spare towels. Ashley really wished she had one of them. The room would be vacant of any possible cover, so already Ashley had to trudge to the door exiting the exercise room.

She stalled for a few moments. She wasn’t sure if the guests who had taken her clothes would be gone. She didn’t need to walk out naked in front of them. After a few more moments passed, Ashley slowly looked out into the hallway.

Everything seemed clear. Ashley slowly slipped out of the room. She knew that down the hall three girls could be standing around. If she wasn’t careful, she’d be caught as a streaker at her own place of business.

Ashley’s feet slapping against the floor sent tremors of intense, vulnerable feelings through her body as she trekked over towards the lobby. Every step Ashley took made her breasts bobble. She tried to bring an arm up to them, to cover and hold them, but she could still feel the difference between her arm and the support a bra would normally supply.

Ashley’s thighs rubbing weren’t ignorable either. Ashley had grown wet and that wetness was evident. She couldn’t believe she’d become so slick, but at the same time a little relieved. In some weird way, Ashley was happy she was at least getting something out of it. If she were only scared, the situation would probably felt worse. Though perhaps that was the problem, the reason she kept getting herself into situations; she didn’t hate them enough.

She neared the end of the hall, and she tried to stay close to the wall that would turn into the lobby. Ashley’s heart pounded. More and more she could see the lobby, seeing how it was empty. However, she couldn’t’ see the whole thing, and if she just turned the corner suddenly, she’d have no way to hide herself.

Eventually she ran out of hall though. Over a fourth of the lobby would be out of sight for her, including the main door. If the girls from before were quick about dropping things off in the lost and found bucket at the far edge of the counter, they’d be gone. Yet if they lingered at all… they were probably still there.

The other option Ashley had was to wait there till someone came across her. The barren hall provided no cover, and she wasn’t near any doors to hide behind either. She had to go forward; Ashley at least had a chance no one would see her if she continued. So she took one final look. She probably looked silly, peeking her head and bare shoulders around the corner, but it was safer than flashing her entire naked self to whoever may be there.

No one was there though! Ashley was relieved. She already started to promise herself she’d never do something as silly as strip naked at work again! Ashley triumphantly rounded the corner and quickly behind her desk.

“You did it Ashley, you were naked here at work! I know I shouldn’t have, but at least I can say I did it. Not many other people can,” she mused to herself. The sense of relief was so intense. Sort of like shedding her clothing, the lack of worry was always so emboldening.

Looking back, she saw that she was alone. She moved a hand between her legs and ran a finger between her soaking lips. “Heh, really let myself get carried away. Maybe I should find somewhere a bit more private…” she wondered aloud. She shivered when her finger graced her sensitive clit.

“Get dressed!” a voice rang out in her head. She giggled and pulled her hand away. She was going to do it; she was going to do as she knew she should. “No more fun!” Ashley said, giving her nipples one last tease. That was nearly a mistake, as her new resolve to better herself almost wavered in that moment. She ignored the tingling in her body though and finally walked over to the bin.

The first thing Ashley did was look down into the bin. She pushed and prodded away the things that weren’t hers. Forgotten clothes, shoes, and other items were there, but she was starting to realize her clothes weren’t! Ashley’s shirt, shorts, and bra were nowhere to be seen!

She tried to flip a few things over, but it didn’t make sense for it to be buried. The girls wouldn’t have taken them elsewhere, would they? Ashley was now realizing she was perhaps actually stuck naked!

Ashley shook her head. She wasn’t stuck naked, she was riffling through a few items of clothing! After pushing a shoe to the side to try and grab a shirt though, she heard the chime of the front door!

The sound of air filling the room was all Ashley heard as she ducked down behind the counter. She couldn’t believe there’d be another guest! The day was turning out to be the busiest it ever had been during those no-sweat-hours!

Ashley tried to listen for sounds of the new guest. There were a couple of steps. Would the person try to check in at the counter? Ashley curled up into a tight ball and against the desk. She figured she’d be safe as long as the new guest didn’t peer over the edge.

There was silence. Ashley was so close to having clothes on again. She still didn’t know where her actual clothes were. She wondered if those who found her clothes were looking for a streaker. Would they have recognized them as the clothes the desk girl was wearing?

The new guest began to walk away. The fading footsteps signaled Ashley to quietly sigh with relief. She again narrowly dodged detection. Ashley wasn’t sure if she was lucky or what.

Ashley stood and this time didn’t play around. Her body actually now ached for release more than ever, but Ashley was done. It wasn’t her own clothes, but she had to have something. Ashley got up off the ground and went right back into the bin.

She pulled out a stretchy tank top, and slithered it down her body. The material was a bit tight, and her hard nipples showed through it. It wasn’t so bad though, and she figured it wouldn’t look out of place amongst the people there. She then managed to find a pair of jeans that she would be able to fit into, though a bit loosely.

Ashley was covered, though in unfamiliar clothing. She then began to wonder what could have possibly happened to her clothes. She was sure that the girls in the gym mentioned bringing them to the lost and found.

That’s when it hit her. Ashley again scrounged through the lost and found. It had been lying on the top before, but now it made sense. There was a bra in the lost and found, and that wasn’t really a normal occurrence. Ashley was sure she hadn’t seen it before either. She was now wondering if she had heard about the wrong bra. Was there a chance there had been two bras?

Ashley knew what this meant. Now clothed, she could more easily make her way back to the exercise room. In no time, she was able to go through the empty room to where she left her clothes. And just as Ashley had started to suspect, her clothes were where she left them!

The borrowed items were quickly removed. Ashley couldn’t believe it, had she just checked that corner of the room first, she’d have seen the other girls had not touched her stuff. She risked a total naked streak to the front for nothing!

Ashley wasn’t feeling too regretful about that, though. More regretful was putting her proper clothes back on. She wasn’t even able to convince herself to bother with the bra. Perhaps it had been a mistake to strip totally naked to change? She hadn’t even given much thought to the fact she had done it right in the exercise room!

However, Ashley still did believe she’d done enough for that day. She got her pants and shirt back on, and was once more a nearly decent employee! She was ready to put things behind her finally.

Back at the front desk though, it’s all that could occupy her mind. Things had quieted down again. She was so dazed she didn’t even pay any notice to any of the guests that were heading out. She could swear a few sounded in a hurry based on the hurried steps she heard, but she didn’t look up in time to see what was going on. Ashley just continued to tap her bare feet to the ground, thinking about how naked she had been, how naked she still was under her clothes with no underwear on.

“Howdy Ash!” Came a voice! Ashley quickly turned and saw that her coworker had finally come in!

Ashley quickly looked down and saw how her shoes and socks were still off. Her face began to turn red. “So, how was your day? I’m sure things just dragged as usual. Anything exciting happen?” Ashley nearly winced at the comment. If only her coworker knew!

“Busier than usual actually,” Ashley explained. She tried to shuffle away a bit. Her face was red. Not only was she thinking about her adventures, but now also thinking about how she was trapped barefoot in front of her coworker. Shoes were of course required by the dress code.

Ashley’s heart stopped when her coworker did look down, and did notice her shoeless and sockless state! “Hey, Ash, were the shoes just uncomfy?”

Ashley was about ready to panic. Would her friend think she was weird? “Um… well… yeah… I guess… I mean…” Ashley didn’t know how to explain it at all.

“Yeah, I know what you mean. After a long shift I’ll do that sometimes. They can get so cramped,” she explained. Ashley couldn’t believe it. Was it really no big deal? Could she could make it a usual thing… No, probably wouldn’t be for the best. She didn’t need another day like this happening!

The End
