The Naked Host?

"Hi James!"

"Uh, hi Mel!" James winced, faking enthusiasm. Of all the people Rebecca could have sent to see him in this state Mel was one of the cruellest choices.

The two not only worked together but were also pretty good friends. James had something of a crush on Mel and felt it might be reciprocated on some level but, since she had a fiance, he had never acted on it. The pair had flirted mildly on occasion but it was clear there were very definite lines that James would not only be crossing but positively dancing over if he went ahead with Rebecca's wishes and invited her in

Mel was a sweet and fairly innocent young woman. Inviting her into his home then revealing himself to be fully naked was not something she was likely to find charming. At best the friendship would be ruined and everyone at work would hear about what a perverted creep he was. At worst the police could be paying him a visit. Rebecca had given him some code phrase about it being normal for him to be naked that supposedly would stop people freaking out about hi nudity. But who was to say that would even work? And, besides, he didn't want to be fully naked around his crush while she was just as fully clothed.

"You said you had something to show me. Aren't you going to invite me in?" Mel smiled sweetly.

This was James's last chance to back out. He could make up some excuse and send Mel away. She might be a little irritated and confused but that would be far less problematic than the alternative. But what if Rebecca wasn't bluffing? Was it really worth the risk of being left naked permanently?

James could feel the witches' presence. He knew she was watching over him, probably getting off on this. Nonetheless, he knew he only really had one option here.

"Of course you can come in" James replied as calmly as he could muster "I just need you to keep an open mind and not just leave. I need you to stay a while, okay?"

"Okay?" Mel nodded with a confused look, oblivious of what was about to happen.

James nodded appreciatively as he tentatively opened the door, keeping his body behind it and out of view of passers by as Mel stepped over the threshold into his apartment.
