Sure... but why make it easy?

I started laughing loudly. Talia's response was so outrageous and so indignant, there really wasn't anything else I could do. I brought my hand to my chest, but before I could start undoing the buttons Amy's fingers clasped around mine.

"Aw, what gives?" Stephanie complained.

"Here's the thing - as much as I wouldn't say no to some Ian in his birthday suit," joked my wife as she dragged a finger down my chest, "He's got a point. It's his birthday. He needs some motivation before he starts giving out free samples, right?"

"What's that mean?" Elizabeth raised her eyebrow.

"I think it's only fair that he gives you guys all a show - after you've all given him one," grinned Amy. "So how about this - he'll only take a piece off after one of you've taken a piece off first."

"What?! Are you crazy, Amy?!" Corrine gestured at herself. "Look at this! 'A piece' is all I've got! And Ian's dressed like a fucking Eskimo!"

"Maybe, but there's five of you ladies," I shrugged, playing along. "Still, if you none of you girls want to buy a ticket to the gun show, no big deal."

Talia laughed so hard she snorted, which set all the other girls off. Eventually, Elizabeth surprised all of us by standing up, pulling off her denim sleeves and dropping her jacket to the floor, regarding me with a coyly triumphant smile on her face. "Ooooh," teased the others. The gauntlet had been thrown.

I smirked, peeling off my own jacket.
