MONDAY - Everything changes

Alright, no need to bore you with the details. I’m not that interesting of a guy.

My name’s Theodore McGee, but my friends call me Theo. I’m 24 years-old and 6’2. Pretty average looking guy; not too buff, not too scrawny. I work from home on my computer. Boring sales stuff, don’t worry about it.

I live in an apartment with my good friend, Jennifer Ashton.

She’s also 24 (our birthdays are in the same month!), and she has a job as a manager over at the local Dunkin. We met in college, and we’ve been friends for around five years. We’re pretty close. Not quite sibling level or anything, but I’d say we’re best friends. Hell, some people have even assumed we’re a couple before!

Now don’t get me wrong, Jenn is a GORGEOUS woman. I can’t deny I’d love to have my arm around a girl half as hot as her, but we’ve never been more than friends. That’s for the best. We work better like that anyway.

Although I can’t stop myself from taking a little glance every now and then. Boys will be boys I suppose.

Anyways, when we graduated college, we decided to live together to pool resources. You know how it is: all the rent is high, but all the jobs pay low.

And that’s how it’s been. Just us living in our little apartment, each paying out half of the rent, doing our fair share around the place. It’s a nice life all things considered.

Today’s an ordinary Monday evening. Jenn and I are both out of work for the day, so we’re taking it easy and unwinding. We both got ourselves pretty comfortable. I’m wearing a t-shirt and sweatpants, and she’s wearing a spaghetti string top and pajama pants.

She plops down on the couch next to me. “Alrighty Theo, you got something picked out for us?” she asks.

“Nope. Figured we could just try out luck with the cable game instead.”

She chuckles. “Sounds good to me.”

Sometimes instead of flipping through the countless streaming services these days, we say “fuck it” and just throw on a random cable channel and riff with each other about whatever is on.

Within a few minutes, we find ourselves watching some sort of nature documentary. The narrator has a funny voice, so we already got some material to work with. We go back and forth making stupid impressions.

After a while, that bit runs dry, and we look for other things in the doc to comment on. Jenn sits up and turns to me. She points to the screen, saying “Can you believe this shit Theo? Look at how free those animals are! No taxes. No rent. No clothes. Imagine how much more money we’d have if we didn’t have all that crap.”

I laugh, and follow up with joking outrage, “Yeah! We’re animals too! We should try skipping all of that! Who’s gonna stop us?”

Jenn cackles, “Yeah! We should just stop paying rent and taxes! Nothing bad could possibly happen!”

We both share a laugh.

“Yeah,” I say, “that would be a fuckin mess wouldn’t it? I’m not looking for an eviction or jail time…but y’know, I wouldn’t mind nudity. When you really think about it, there’s no good reason people should be embarrassed about nudity.”

Jenn giggles, “The hell are you on about?”

With a comedic air still in the room, I goofily try to justify myself. “I’m just saying: yeah, we’d probably have a landlord or IRS agent at our door if we stopped paying rent and taxes, but what would be so wrong if everyone just decided to show a little more skin?” I say with a goofy smirk.

“You perv!” Jenn jokingly accuses me. “You just wanna see people walking around naked! You disgust me.”

Still smiling, I fire back, “Woah woah woah! I would be going nude too in this hypothetical world! Besides I’m not even talking about public nudity, although I have heard that’s actually legal here.”

Jenn keeps laughing. “What the hell are you talking about you weirdo?” she says as she lightly shoves me.

“I’m just saying I don’t think nudity is that bad, especially if it’s just in your own home.”

“Prove it!” she commands.

“The fuck you mean ‘prove it’?” I ask with a chuckle.

“If you’re soooo casual and cool about being naked, strip down! Get nude!” she says.

Oh Ho Ho. Is that a challenge I’m hearing?

I must admit, while it did start out as a joke, I do earnestly believe everything I’m saying about nudity. Most guys would probably freak out over their dicks being seen by a chick they’re not trying to bang, especially friends, but who cares! They know about our junk! What’s the big deal?

Y’know what? Let’s go.

“Ok.” I reply after thinking for a moment.

Her joking face drops to a genuinely surprised and serious one. “What?”

I stand up. “I said ok. I’ll get naked.”

She adjusts her position on the couch. “Dude, I was joking.“

“I’m not.” I say with my hands on my hips.

“I- Theo, you can’t be serious?” she says, chuckling again.

“I’ve never been more serious about anything in my life.” I say in some sort of action star impression. “That is, assuming you’re fine with it. Pretty sure it’s harassment or **** or something if you’re not.”

Jenn stops to think for a few moments, before throwing her hands up and collapsing on the couch with a grin.

“Fuck it. Fine by me.”

Awesome. This’ll be fun.

I stand up off the couch, hook my hands around the hem of my shirt, and flick it up and off with one swift motion.

Jenn looks on with interest. I can tell she’s still skeptical of this. She doesn’t know if I’m really gonna do it or not.

Next, I lean on the arm of the couch, kick off my shoes, and take off my socks.

Without missing a beat, I stand back up, drop my sweatpants, and kick them to the corner of the room.

Jenn is giggling. She was not expecting to see her best friend so casually in his underwear today. Why would she?

“Y’know,” I remark, “this feels pretty good.” I take a big stretch and lean back.

Jenn doesn’t say a word. She’s definitely in shock of me actually going through with it.

“And now,” I declare, “the big finale!”

Like it’s nothing, I yank my boxers to the floor. My cock and balls plop out into the open like it’s nothing. With a flick of my ankle, my undies are on the other side of the room.

And there I was, standing fully naked, skin on display head-to-toe, dick out in the open, in front of my best friend of like five years now. My FEMALE best friend at that.

This should feel embarrassing…but it doesn’t! It feels freeing! So what if Jenn is seeing me naked? We’re friends! Let her look all she wants!

Jenn is looking at me with raised eyebrows and a beet red face. In awe, she’s taking it all in. My bare chest, the light treasure trail of hair going down my stomach, leading to my trimmed (but not shaven) pubic patch, sitting like a crown on top of my cock and balls, sitting between my modestly hairy legs.

“Welp! Here it aaaaaall is”’ I say, sashaying my hips side to side. My dick and balls jiggle back and forth with my movements.

That sends her over the edge, and she breaks down laughing at that craziness of what she’s seeing, at how quickly this situation escalated.

I simply drop myself back into the couch.

Jenn regains her composure, and turns to me saying “Theodore McGee, you are something else!”

“You’re damn right I am!”

I lean back and spread my legs wide, letting my junk dangle over the edge of the couch.

“How’s THAT for a wild animal!” I exclaim.

Jenn can’t help but cackle. “Can it you freakin weirdo!” she jests.

“Hey, you tried to call my bluff, and you were wrong! If you want me to put clothes back on, you can ask.” I reply. I’d hate for her to feel genuinely uncomfortable or unsafe.

“Nah, I’m down for this. This is crazy, but I like crazy and funny stuff.”

“Glad we’re on the same page” I say as I rub my hand over my torso, really taking in how exposed I am.

Every sensation is amplified by the lack of clothing! It feels unreal!

We settle back into our chill mode, and quietly watch the rest of the documentary. I spend the time soaking in the wonderful feeling of casual nudity, and she spends time occasionally looking over just to make sure this weird-ass dream scenario is real.

Once the show is over, we stand up.

“Well,” she says, “that was certainly something!”

She’s still staring at me. Not in a lustful way, but in a “I can’t believe my guy friend is just standing in front of me naked like it’s nothing” kinda way, if that makes any sense. I can’t lie. I’m loving the attention.

I have an idea. “You know what? I think I’m gonna stay like this!”

Jenn speaks up, “What, for like, the rest of the night?”

“Nope. I’m thinking… indefinitely! At least around the house. I’m not looking to go outside naked!” I answer.

Jenn smirks. “For real?”

“Yeah! Why not? You’re my best friend, so who cares? Unless you’re afraid you’ll be overcome with lust at the sight of my divine body!” I joke as I do a big performative stretch, pushing my crotch out as far as possible.

She almost falls over laughing. “Alright alright! That’s about enough naked Theo dick for one day! I’m going to bed!”

Still laughing at the shamelessness of my display, she marches to her room.

I should probably head to bed too.

But tomorrow, is another naked day.
