Truth or Dare

Chapter 15

Anna was in a tough spot, knowing full well there was no way for her to follow through with the request without exposing the underwear Emma's mother had required her to wear. She frantically tried to come up with a plan, but any attempt to talk her way out of it would not go over with the girls demanding her to perform the childish act.

In a desperate attempt to salvage the situation, Anna summoned her courage and spoke up, trying to find a way out. "Um, how about... I'll do the dare, but instead of peeing my pants, I'll do something else embarrassing? Maybe eat a spoonful of hot sauce or sing a silly song?" she suggested, hoping her friends would agree to an alternative. "Or, I could just do a truth? Right? That works."

All the girls saw the nervousness of their peer. They had never seen Anna so flustered. Luckily for her, a bit of logic and empathy was her saving grace when Emma spoke up.

"Listen, guys, I appreciate the gesture." She said. "But, Anna literally just went to the bathroom. There's no way she could pee even if she wanted to."

Some of that was true. Anna did just go to the bathroom, however the constant liquid intake she was having had but her kidneys into overdrive and her bladder had already started to fill again. Of course, she wasn't going to say anything.

"I say we just move on from the whole thing." Emma said, just wanting to put this all behind her.

Anna felt a sense of relief followed by a sudden strike of guilt over what she had planned for the friend that just saved her from sure humiliation.

The girls all let it go and finished their game, playing as they had countless times before. It wasn't long before all of them fell into their old ways completely and all animosity and resentment was gone. Everyone laughed and carried on, just like they had when they were children. Emma and Anna had even both forgotten about the padded underwear they both wore, but Anna didn't forget her plan.

In the midst of all their shenanigans, Anna kept casually forcing drinks onto Emma while also consuming them herself to avoid suspicion. It was a good strategy until bedtime rolled around and Anna saw an issue with her idea arise. She had to pee pretty bad.

Anna thought hard about what she could do. She didn't want to risk taking a trip to the bathroom for fear of her friends recognizing that she now had to pee and deciding to have her fulfill her earlier dare. It just wasn't an option. She came to the conclusion she would just have to hold it until everyone had fallen asleep. Her next obstacle was getting changed into her bed clothes. Fortunate for her, her bedtime outfit consisted of a long night shirt.

As everyone grabbed their pajamas from their bags and changed into them, Anna casual slipped off her shirt and replaced with her nightshirt. She was thankful that he hung down nearly to her knees, so all she had to do was slip off her jeans and the shirt would cover the pull-up she had on beneath them. With that problem averted, everyone settled into their respected sleeping bags and all talked in the dark until, one by one, each of them fell asleep.

Anna however could not join the group in slumber as her aching bladder kept her awake, yet she was too nervous to go to the bathroom just yet for fear of waking someone. It wasn't a very rational paranoia, but Anna was so worried about getting discovered in her nightpants, that she wasn't thinking clearly. The pressure in her bladder didn't help her mind focus much either.

She needed a way to get her mind off of her need to pee. That's when an idea struck her. She remember she had a bottle of melatonin pills in her bag. She thought maybe taking one of those would make her drowsy enough to ignore her full bladder.

With a mix of anxiety and hope, Anna retrieved the pills from her bag as quietly as possible, and slipped one into her mouth, washing it down with a large gulp of water. She hoped it would kick in fast and solve her problem. Minutes passed with no sign of hope, and the fresh water she drank had joined the rest of the night's liquids in her overflowing bladder.

Finally, fighting her urination urges, Anna was able to fall asleep. Of course a full bladder and a deep sleeper is not the best combination. Hours into the night, Anna's subconscious mind began to dream of toilets and peeing. She dreamt of desperation and of relieving herself. Eventually, one dream led to the inevitable...
