Samantha and Chloe stepped into the elevator after finishing up their work for the morning. They were both looking forward to their lunch break to get out of the office for a bit.
"I really need to use the bathroom before we head out," Samantha said, doing a little potty dance.
"No problem, I'll hit the ground floor," Chloe replied, pressing the button.
As the elevator began its descent, there was a jolt, and it ground to a halt between the 3rd and 2nd floors.
"What the..." Samantha's voice trailed off as her heart dropped. She had been holding it for a while already after drinking too much coffee that morning. She frantically pressed the ground floor button a few times, to no avail. "Oh no, no, no..."
"Hey, try to stay calm," Chloe said, putting a hand on Samantha's shoulder. "I'm sure it's just a minor issue, and they'll have us moving again in no time."
But Samantha could feel the pressure in her bladder building rapidly. She should have listened to her body's urges earlier instead of trying to power through; she crossed her legs tightly, squirming as she tried to clench her pelvic muscles. Each second felt like an eternity as she willed her bladder to cooperate. Chloe kept pushing the call button periodically, furrowing her brow with concern as she glanced over at Samantha's obvious distress. Beads of sweat formed on Samantha's brow as the urge became overwhelming. She squeezed her thighs together tightly; her muscles were shaking.
"Chloe... I... I don't know how much longer..." she stammered, unable to complete her sentence.
Chloe bit her lip, feeling helpless as her friend's situation deteriorated.
"Hey, remember a few weeks ago when I was stuck in that horrible traffic jam on the interstate?" Chloe began. "I really had to pee so badly, and there was just nowhere to go." Samantha managed a small nod, her focus still centered on her dire predicament. Chloe continued in a quieter voice. "Well... don't tell anyone, but... I ended up just wetting myself right there in the car seat. I couldn't hold it a second longer." Samantha's eyes went wide at this admission, her mind briefly distracted from her own situation.
"And you know what?" Chloe said, leaning in closer. "I...I actually really enjoyed the feeling. It was strangely...liberating." She gave Samantha a meaningful look, as if giving her unspoken permission to have an accident if she couldn't hold it. To let go of the anguish and embrace the relief. Samantha started pacing in tiny circles, her steps getting shorter as she crossed and uncrossed her legs repeatedly. Then, a small spurt escaped...
Samantha felt that telltale spurt and froze, squeezing her muscles as tightly as possible to prevent any further leakage. A small damp patch formed on her light gray dress pants, but it wasn't overtly noticeable yet. She shot a panicked look at Chloe, who was still periodically pressing the call button. Chloe seemed unaware of Samantha's near accident, absorbed in trying to get them unstuck. Samantha willed herself to stay calm and not draw attention to her predicament. She didn't want to admit how badly she had to go in front of Chloe. The embarrassment would be mortifying.
"You okay over there?" Chloe asked, noticing Samantha's pacing had stopped.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine," Samantha lied, trying to keep her voice steady. She shifted her stance, pressing her thighs together once more. Chloe nodded and returned her focus to the control panel. Samantha could feel another urge building; her bladder cramped uncomfortably. She began doing tiny squats, desperately trying to make it through this ordeal.
"Ugh, what's taking so long?" Chloe grumbled in frustration after several more minutes passed in silence. Samantha didn't respond; her entire focus was on keeping her bladder in check. She could feel warmth spreading as another spurt escaped, adding to the stain. Her face burned red as she realized she might not make it much longer. Just then, the elevator shuddered slightly and jerked downwards a few inches before stopping again. A voice came over the speaker: "Attention, we're aware of the situation and working to get you out as quickly as possible. Please remain calm and do not attempt to force open the doors. You'll be free momentarily."
"See? What did I tell you?" Chloe said, shooting Samantha a reassuring smile.
Samantha managed a weak nod in return, but she could feel panic rising within her again. That small jolt had put extra pressure on her bladder, making the urge to go even more intense. She shuffled from foot to foot, hands shoved into her crotch, as discreetly as she could manage. Chloe was still obliviously watching the floor numbers, unaware of Samantha's internal struggle. Another wave of desperation hit, causing Samantha to double over slightly with a sharp intake of breath. She could feel warmth spreading again as a few more spurts escaped into her underwear.
"You sure you're okay?" Chloe asked with a concerned look. "You don't look so good."
"I'm f-fine," Samantha stammered out; her voice strained. "Just want to get out of here."
Chloe nodded sympathetically. Samantha closed her eyes tightly, praying they would be freed from this elevator prison soon before she couldn't hold it any longer. She could feel the damp patch growing with every uncontrolled spurt. Her thighs were trembling from being clenched so hard. Sweat beaded on her forehead as she waged war with her rebellious bladder. Just as she thought she might burst, the elevator shuddered again and started descending...
The elevator shuddered and began descending slowly. Samantha felt a surge of relief, thinking they would finally be freed. But then it stopped again with a jolt, still stuck between floors.
"No, no, no!" she gasped out loud this time, unable to contain her anguish. Her hands shoved harder against her crotch as she felt wetness escaping.
Chloe's eyes went wide as she took in Samantha's stance and the obvious damp patch on her pants. "Oh...oh, Samantha, I'm so sorry, I didn't realize..." Samantha's face burned bright red with humiliation. Chloe would find out in the most mortifying way. Tears welled up in her eyes as she danced from foot to foot frantically.
"How... how long have you needed to go?" Chloe asked gently.
"S-since before we got on," Samantha admitted through gritted teeth. "I should have gone first; I knew I had to go, but I thought I could hold it."
Another spurt soaked through, adding to the stain. Samantha whimpered, on the verge of losing all control. She couldn't hold it much longer. Chloe looked around helplessly. "Here, uh, maybe you can go in this?" She grabbed her large purse, offering it to Samantha.
Samantha shook her head, mortified. "No, no I can't... oh god, I don't think I can make it!" She squeezed her eyes shut, focusing every ounce of her willpower to keep her bladder in check, but it was getting harder and harder to deny its demands for release.
"Just hang on, Samantha!" Chloe urged. "They'll get us out; you have to keep holding it!" Samantha let out a guttural groan as another wave of desperation crashed over her. This was sheer agony...
The voice crackled over the speaker again as Samantha was in the throes of her desperate struggle: "Attention, we're very close to resolving the issue. The elevator will begin moving normally in just a couple more minutes. Please remain patient and calm." Chloe looked at Samantha with a mixture of pity and encouragement. "You hear that? Just a couple more minutes; you can hold on that long, right?"
Samantha wasn't sure she could make it even another minute at this point. She was leaking constantly now; her underwear was soaked through, and a large wet patch stained the crotch of her pants. She danced frantically from foot to foot, hands still shoved tightly against herself. Whimpers escaped her lips with every frantic movement as she willed her bladder to defy its screaming urge to release.
"Oh god...oh god..." she panted out; sweat poured down her face. Her whole body trembled with the strain of clenching every muscle. Chloe bit her lip, feeling utterly helpless to do anything but watch her friend's agony play out. She wished she could trade places with Samantha or that there was some way to provide relief. Just when Samantha felt she couldn't possibly hold on any longer, couldn't endure another second of this torment, the elevator shuddered again. But this time, it did not begin descending. Samantha whimpered; tears streamed down her cheeks from the sheer intensity of her need. She was right on the edge, every muscle trembling as she battled her rebellious bladder. More warm spurts leaked out, trickling down her legs.
Samantha danced frantically from foot to foot, hands shoved against her crotch as if that could somehow stem the tide. "Oh god... oh god..." she panted; her voice strained. "I don't know how much longer I can..."
Just then, the elevator lights flickered, and they heard a loud clunking sound from above. Samantha froze, her breath catching in her throat as she willed herself not to let go. The elevator remained motionless, leaving them trapped in limbo. Samantha wasn't sure if she could keep denying her body's screams for relief much longer...
Chloe could see the intense struggle playing out on Samantha's face as she battled against her body's overwhelming urges. She put a reassuring hand on her friend's shoulder.
"Samantha, listen to me," Chloe said in a gentle but firm voice. "If you can't hold it any longer, it's okay to let go. I won't judge you, I promise." Samantha shook her head adamantly; her whole body trembled as more warm spurts leaked out. "No... I can't... it's too humiliating..."
"Hey, remember what I told you about when I wet myself in the car?" Chloe gave her a meaningful look. "As embarrassing as it was at first, it actually ended up feeling really freeing, like a huge weight was lifted." Samantha's eyes went wide as she recalled Chloe's confession about the arousal and thrill she had experienced from that loss of control.
Chloe leaned in closer so only Samantha could hear. "I won't tell a soul if you have an accident right here. And who knows..." She gave Samantha a sly wink. "You might even end up enjoying the feeling like I did." A fierce blush crept up Samantha's cheeks as she processed Chloe's suggestive words. The idea of willingly wetting herself was still intensely mortifying. But she couldn't deny a tiny part of her was intrigued, maybe even... excited by the idea of that ultimate release.
