(Subplot) Getting Chelsea Naked

Chelsea had been joined by Nari in her bedroom to film the third episode of their daily video podcast. Her actual roommate, Tina, was at the bar and unlikely to return any time soon, so it seemed the perfect space to do it in. Chelsea had enjoyed making the first two podcasts with Nari more than she had expected. They just felt like two friends shooting the shit together, and she barely even remembered there was an audience most of the time.

Chelsea flopped herself down lazily onto the bed and the naked gamer huddled in close to her, her bare leg partly resting on Chelsea's jeans. Such close proximity with someone who was still a fairly casual acquaintance, and fully nude, could have made Chelsea feel uncomfortable, but she didn't mind. In fact, she quite liked how it made her feel.

"Can I ask you a question, before we go on camera?"

"We're always on camera" Chelsea reminded her friend and co-host.

"Oh yeah, I see what you mean" Nari giggled "Then you don't have to answer, but I'll ask anyway. What are you? Straight? Bi?"

"I always thought I was straight" Chelsea blurted out before correcting herself "I mean, I am straight"

"Really? You don't sound too certain" Nari giggled.

"What are you then?" Chelsea couldn't stop herself asking.

"I like boys and girls. Basically anyone I find cute" Nari clarified, pausing and holding eye contact with Chelsea a little longer than might be considered socially normal before continuing "My turn to ask another question. Why do you always wear clothes in here?"

"Most people wear clothes. I'm not the strange one in here, everyone else is!"

"I guess that's a fair point" Nari laughed "But this is the Naked Mansion after all. And you've already popped your nudity cherry"

"Popped my nudity cherry?" Chelsea repeated the words with a confused expression.

"Yeah, it's a phrase Anna taught me. It means that you have already been naked on camera. Your showers, your baths, your wardrobe malfunctions during spell practice with April"

"You saw that?" Chelsea recoiled in horror.

"Babes, it was your only time naked in a free view part of the mansion. That footage is all over the Internet"

"Fucking April!" Chelsea huffed.

"Look, the point is that anyone who wants to see you naked, Chelsea Hodges, can and probably already has. And I gotta tell ya, that's an awful lot of people. So why not just rip the band aid off and go fully nude?"

"I have actually thought about it, since everyone seems to have seen everything there is of me by now anyway" Chelsea admitted "And I do feel like a bit of a weirdo wearing clothes in here, as mad as that is. But if go fully nude then the only one wearing clothes will be April, and she'll feel under even more pressure than she already is to strip off"

"Aww, I love the relationship you two have. It's like you drive each other mad but you still really look out for each other" Nari cooed "Okay then, how about just doing the podcast naked with me?"

"What now?"

"Yeah, but it could be a daily thing tii. We can come to your room and film here, so it's only people who have your bedroom access or who subscribe to my channel who will see it. And it will be a little daily naked time for you, to help desensitise you to the whole public nudity thing a little more?"

Chelsea thought about it for a moment. The idea of spending 45 minutes a day naked in her bedroom with Nari was more appealing than she cared to admit.

"Fine, fuck it" she decided as he started pulling off her hoodie.
