"Ohhhhh. Heaven's got nothing on this!" Chie Satonaka moaned, sinking into the warm water up to her shoulders.
"Oh wow. This is the best way to recover after a long day!" Rise Kujikawa sighed, her long auburn hair tied up in small ringlets to keep it out of the water. "Thanks for the invite, Yukiko-senpai! You're the best!"
"Oh, I can't take all the credit. It was Marie-chan's idea!" Yukiko said, beaming in the direction of the blue haired girl. "Fortunately, this season has been particularly slow, so we don't have anyone staying at the moment."
The three young girls formed a small circle in one corner of the bath. They had decided not to wear the large towels that provided some amount of modesty in the bathing area. After all, it was only the girls of the Investigation Team here tonight, and besides Yukiko had been severely chewed out for allowing so many of the courtesy towels to become soaked during their last visit.
Meanwhile, over by the showers, Marie and Naoto were busy washing and scrubbing in the small showering area adjacent to the spring itself.
"Why is this necessary again? I thought the point of taking a bath was to get clean IN THE BATH. Washing up before hand seems like something an idiot would do." Marie said, glancing at Naoto.
"Err...that's a blunt way to put it. And no. A public bath is not the same as a swimming pool. Most of them do not possess chlorine or other chemicals intended to keep the water clean. It is a serious breach of etiquette to enter the water without first cleaning yourself off." Naoto said.
"Hrm. So many rules. Your society is really annoying sometimes." Marie muttered to herself.
"I won't argue with that assessment." Naoto smiled. "Oh...Marie-chan...there's a reason I was the last one in line for the showers here. I wanted to warn you..."
"Huh? Is something wrong?" Marie asked, glancing around.
"Not...exactly. Just...be prepared. The other girls can be rather...hands on in the bath." Naoto said, glancing at the three girls chattering in the bath an blushing to herself.
"....Hands on what?" Marie asked in confusion.
"....you and I, mostly." Naoto sighed. "The few occasions we've been naked together have involved them...expressing a great deal of admiration...for my body."
"Oh. Well, to be fair, I can't really blame them. I mean...have you seen the size of those things?" Marie pointed at Naoto's chest. "I'm pretty sure you outclass every girl in town with those."
"Yes. Thank you." Naoto said, blushing furiously. "I am...often reminded of that now that my secret has come out into the open."
Poor Naoto. Living half her life convinced that her body and gender were a roadblock for her dreams. Recent experiences could not undo the ingrained sense of terror and shame she felt in situations where her sex was emphasized.
"A-anyway, we don't need to talk about that! I bring this up because sometimes they express their...admiration by...touching." Naoto said, lowering her voice as she spoke.
"Wait, what? That's a thing girls do too? I thought it was just gross older men on subways! Should I...smack them in the groin too?" Marie asked, clearly befuddled.
"What? No! No...and please don't use any of your lightning powers either! This is a perfectly normal activity among female peers....I think." Naoto whispered.
"You THINK?" Marie said.
"Well...I...I never had many female peers when I was younger. And even then I was attempting to conceal my gender most of the time, so as you can imagine I have had very few opportunities to...to interact with them in this way. But...I've read that public baths are an excellent opportunity to interact with one's friends in a way where the social distinctions of society can be relaxed. So it is most likely just a way to express affection that would otherwise be inappropriate. P-perhaps combined with...a desire to help me accept myself and to cease being so timid about my body." Naoto whispered.
"Yeah, okay, that sounds plausible. That or they all got the hots for you while you were pretending to be a man and they all still feel frisky around you." Marie mused to herself.
"Err..." Naoto said, blushing. "Yes, perhaps. In any case, I wanted to warn you not to be alarmed. They...have expressed an admiration for your body as well. There was no opportunity to get close to you in the Ski Lodge, of course, but I suspect if given the opportunity..."
"Gotcha. So don't freak out and just let them do their thing, right? Sounds simple enough." Marie said.
"Excellent." Naoto whispered as the pair finished washing themselves off and headed towards the bath.
As Marie was sliding into the bath, Naoto suddenly grabbed her shoulders and stopped her.
"Sorry." Naoto whispered, then in a loud voice. "EVERYONE! LOOK HOW PRETTY MARIE'S SKIN IS!"
Marie blinked in bewilderment and turned around to look at Naoto. "Wha..."
"If I don't distract them they'll go after me!" Naoto said apologetically.
"Wow, Naoto, your totally right. Look how smooth and creamy it is!" Rise said, who had gotten alarmingly close to Marie while her back was turned.
Marie felt a slender finger trace along her spine and wantonly grabbing her butt and pulling her a little closer. She gasped in surprise.
"Man, your right. And that body is pretty amazing." Chie said, coming in on her left and feeling along her stomach and breasts. "Do you work out, Marie-chan?"
"And don't forget she can use magic even in our world. She's incredible and beautiful!" Yukiko added, taking up a position on Marie's right and stroking her body much as Chie was on her left.
"Wha-! I-! Wait, stupid! I'm....w-wait! That's! Nooo, d-don't pinch!" Marie wailed.
"Her hair is also rather lovely, even when it is wet." Naoto said, running a hand over her forehead and down her cheek.
"You...what do you think you..." Marie muttered in embarrassment and glared at Naoto.
"When in Rome." Naoto replied with a shrug.
Marie's embarrassment was rising by the minute. Four pairs of mischievous hands feeling up her body was a new and decidely strange (though not entirely unpleasant!) experience that made Marie feel rather foolish as the center of so much attention. She suddenly froze in horror thinking about whether any of the girls might try to touch between her legs. And that thought naturely led to her body's total betrayal, as she felt herself getting excited by the notion. She could feel her nipples getting harder as they were played with, and she was certain a certain little bit of herself was starting to stick out from her inner folds as her excitement and terror mounted. Oh no. Please don't touch down there! Even if none of the girls would normally be THAT frisky, if any of them noticed how excited she was getting...no, surely they wouldn't...but what if they did? As all four girls moved in closer and the groping became more enthusiastic, all Marie could do was pray that the situation did not get any more humiliating.
The situation is about to get even more humiliating. What happens next?
