Chapter 13: Junior Bacchanal

It was during lunch period one day near the end of the school year that Kasha received the notice that was being sent out to all her classmates. She and her friends were just discussing some fun plans for after school, which may or may not have included some time set aside for kinky lesbian sex, when each of their macrolinks beeped with a notification.

When Kasha tapped it to open the screen in front of her eyes, she was greeted with a flashing notice that announced in big bright letters, “Junior Bacchanal! Get your tickets now!”

“What’s this?” Kasha asked, curiously examining the message.

“The Junior Bacchanal!” Tatjana read excitedly. “I’ve been looking forward to this all year!”

“It’s the big end-of-year celebration for our class,” Celia explained. “The big party, where we all get a date, we decorate ourselves real fancy, and then show up for a night of socializing, dancing and sex. It’s like a rite of passage.”

Gillian was grinning big enough that Kasha could see every one of her teeth. “I’m gonna program a counter into my macrolink to keep count of how many guys I fuck that night!” she beamed. “You think twenty is too ambitious?”

“For you, no,” Tatjana drawled.

“So it’s an orgy?” Kasha asked.

“The later part of it, yeah,” Celia nodded. “The first part is just a dance, but at a certain point in the evening everyone’s supposed to start fucking.”

Kasha checked the notice again, and saw some of the details listed in smaller print. And underneath the part that contained a link to guidelines for decorating and bodypainting oneself, there was indeed a disclaimer that read, “All attendees, please be open to sex with multiple partners.”

“You think we’ll get to be on the pyramid?” Tatjana asked, looking around.

“Pyramid?” Kasha said, furrowing her brow.

“It’s a sort of ceremony,” Celia said. “In fact it’s the part that leads from the dance to the orgy. We all vote on which couples get to go in the three tiers of a pyramid that they set up, and whoever’s on the top tier are the first ones to start fucking while everyone watches. Then the second tier and the third, and then everyone else.”

“Sort of a popularity contest,” Tatjana shrugged. “Kind of outdated and elitist, if you ask me.”

“And you sooo want to be voted on!” Gillian teased her with a grin.

Tatjana paused, looking back at her, and admitted, “Desperately!”

While they were all still laughing at this, Kasha’s macrolink pinged from a new message that appeared, overlaying the event notice. It was a message from Gene. “You get the same notice I just did?” it said.

Kasha quickly typed back, “I sure did!”

“Do I have a hope of getting you as my date?”

Kasha laughed again at this, and sent her reply, “Of course I’m your date, stupid!”

The next several days were a frenzy of activity and anticipation around the school, as everyone scrambled to get dates and plan how they would look. The body salons became booked solid very fast, and it was only by sheer luck that Kasha and her friends managed to reserve a time at Zalec’s.

Tatjana was a popular choice for guys asking for a date, but she ended up choosing Kwami out of all her potential suitors, saying his proposal had seemed the sweetest and the least pushy. Celia agreed to go with Zane, meanwhile. Gillian, however, not content with just one guy, announced that she was taking the twin brothers Oscar and Aaron as her dates together. Kasha was a bit surprised, not having realized that they could take more than one date if they wanted, but her friends explained that they could go with anyone in the class they wanted. As was further exemplified when she learned that Maity and Toria were going as each other’s dates.

On the day of the Bacchanal, the girls found themselves crowded into the booths at Zalec’s, surrounded by several more teenage girls being styled up and decorated. As the employees explained, the days of school Bacchanals were among their busiest of the year. And this wasn’t just the standard touching up of makeup and hair that they usually did, either; the girls were being painted and decorated in the most lavish designs to catch as many eyes as they could.

By the time her stylist was done, Kasha had dazzling, shimmering streaks of green and blue slashed over her sides, shoulders and collarbone, all pointing the way to curve of her breasts and the contours of her belly. Her nipples had been painted in a bright cherry red, and her pubic hair had been groomed into a very neat triangle, smoothed down with gel. Her hair flowed in waves and curls that seemed to defy gravity, and it was shining like the finest silk. When she turned around to examine herself in the mirror from behind, she found that the green and blue streaks seemed to be fountaining out from a point at the middle of her back and were gracefully steering around the curve of her ass, adding further emphasis to that too.

Tatjana had been painted with a pattern of pink, purple and indigo streaks that started from her right hip and flared up diagonally to her left shoulder, fanning out to cover her left breast, while her right breast was left unpainted save for the small bit of violet coloring on her nipple, which also had a little diamond ring hanging from it. Celia had been painted with a faint golden sheen and covered with spots like a jaguar, with her finger and toenails painted white and her eyelids painted yellow with black slits to look like a cat’s eyes when she closed them. Gillian had tie-dye patterns on her breasts spiraling out from the nipples, leading to ornate lines that curved along her torso and pointed the way down to her pussy, and on her ass, with a separate word on each cheek were written the words “KISS ME.”

When they were appropriately decorated, Tatjana sent the request from her macrolink for the autolimo to pick them up from in front of the mall. It arrived quickly enough, and when the girls climbed inside, their dates for the evening were inside waiting, having been picked up first and waited for Tatjana’s signal. “There they are!” Zane cheered, raising his drink glass.

“Looking good, girls,” Gene smiled good-naturedly.

“You too, babe,” Kasha said, molding herself to his side. And he did. His decoration was subtle, with no particular paint design one could point to, but his skin had a slick sheen that captured the light in different shimmering colors depending on the angle she looked from. It was quite impressive, honestly. Zane had some black and white streaks in decorative patterns, while Kwami had more jewelry than body paint, including gold armlets and waist chains, and Oscar and Aaron were wearing metallic body paint on their faces and chests, Oscar in silver and Aaron in gold.

As the autolimo started on their way, drinks and laughter soon abounded, the crowd of teens getting quickly into the hedonistic mood for the night. Gillian soon had her hands on each of her date’s dicks and was alternately kissing each of them as they felt up her breasts. Celia was soon bent over Zane’s lap with his cock in her mouth, and Tatjana was soon humping Kwami’s fingers. Kasha lost interest in whatever conversation they’d been having as she climbed into Gene’s lap to passionately make out with him, humping her wetness against his erection. She was tempted to take him inside and start fucking him right there, and in fact she started reaching to do just that, but Gene put a hand on her wrist to stop her, saying, “Save it for the party.”

They soon arrived at the local convention hall, where hundreds of their naked classmates were gathered as they made their way inside, decorated in all kinds of dazzling and outlandish paint schemes and jewelry. They were all giggling and excited as they hopped out of the autolimo and followed the crowds inside, with many people stopping to compliment them on their paint jobs.

They found Maity and Toria just before reaching the entrance, and Gillian called and waved to get their attention. “Hey, you’re all looking awesome!” Toria called back when she saw them.

“And you look ... wow!” Tatjana said, looking them over with an impressed smile. Maity had painted a pair of giant feminine eyes on her breasts with her nipples as the pupils and lashes that swept over her shoulders, while Toria had been painted to look like a bronze statue with sparkling green eyelids, lips, nails and nipples.

“That’s just what I said,” Maity mused as she ran her hands sensuously over her date’s body, demonstrating the effectiveness of the paint’s staying power, which Kasha remembered would be especially important for what was to come tonight. Maity ran her hands down over Toria’s breasts and down her sides as they looked at each other and grinned.

“Much as I love to see two girls with their hands on each other,” Zane drawled, “are we gonna hang around here all night?” There were a few laughs at that.

“Come on, let’s go!” Celia chirped, and they headed inside.

They entered into the big, cavernous dance hall that was thumping with music and flashing with dancing colored lights as a few hundred naked, decorated teens hopped and danced and chatted together. A fine layer of mist covered the floor, and tables of snacks and drinks lined one wall. Kasha looked around, but couldn’t immediately see the pyramid that her friends had talked about, and wondered if that would be brought out later.

“You know, I hear they put aphrodisiacs in the mist,” Gene said into her ear. “Little something to help make everyone extra horny.”

Kasha grinned back at him, and placed a hand on his ass. “I don’t think I need any help there.”

Maity and Toria went scampering off hand-in-hand into the crowd, while Gillian went sashaying forward with her dates on each arm, seductively swaying her hips and making the words “KISS ME” on her ass dance from side to side. Celia turned to Zane and started walking backwards into the throng as she pulled him along by the arms, and they slowly started to dance as they walked.

“We’re gonna go mingle,” Tatjana said to Kasha. Then she planted a quick kiss on Kasha’s mouth before taking Kwami’s arm and letting him lead her onto the dance floor.

“Come on,” Gene said in a gentle, encouraging tone as he nudged Kasha with an arm around her back and led her forward.

For the next hour, Kasha lost herself in the miasma of lights and music and revelry. Half the time she danced with Gene, running her hands over his body and gyrating her ass against his crotch, stopping occasionally to make out with them as they continued swaying their hips. The other half of the time she was passed around to other partners, taking turns dancing with several of the other guys in her class, and a few of the girls too. On a few occasions she and some of her friends, Tatjana especially, would get into the mood and start making out and feeling each other up on the dance floor, usually to a chorus of cheers from those around them.

Eventually every started receiving a notice over their macrolinks, asking them all to vote on who should be on the pyramid. Everyone was asked to vote for one guy and girl each to send to the algorithm. When Kasha received this notice, taking a break with Gene at one of the drink tables at that moment, she cast a grin over at Tatjana, who was in the middle of shaking her hips with about three guys and having the time of her life. Kasha didn’t think twice about voting for her. She was less certain about the male pick, but decided on Kwami as a way of keeping Tatjana and her date together, for whatever it was worth.
