I was home alone when the doorbell rang. I was irritated. If I was going to answer it I'd have to get dressed and I didn't want to. I was quite comfortable curled up on the couch the way I was, watching TV.
I suppose I should point out that it wasn't a case of being under-dressed so much as a case of being nude, and people tend to get startled when someone answers the door in the nude. I don't know why. We've all got similar bodies.
My parents have always been nudists. Not at home, as such, but we'd always spend our holidays at nudist camps and I was quite comfortable with casual nudity. I admit that over the last few years there's been the occasional person who stared at me, but that's just plain rude.
The reason I was nude today was quite simply it was a hot day and I couldn't be bothered getting dressed. OK, if my parents had been here I'd have probably deferred to their preferences and gotten dressed, but they weren't and so I didn't.
I was quite surprised when the front door opened and someone came in. How rude. Then they called out and I recognised the voice. Uncle Mark. At least, I called him Uncle Mark, but it was more of a title of respect than an acknowledgement of a relationship. He was a good friend of my parents, even if somewhat younger. I'd put him at halfway between my eighteen and my mother's thirty eight. (Don't tell her I mentioned her age.)
Anyway, I didn't have to worry about Uncle Mark. He'd seen me in the nude for yonks. I believe my parents initially met him at a camp.
"I'm in here, Mark," I called. I'd been dropping the Uncle title for a while now, seeing we were nearly contemporaries.
He came strolling into the room and stopped, looking at me with an enigmatic expression on his face. I always get a slight surprise when I see Mark. He's a very large man. I tend to expect men to be around my father's size, and generally they are. Then I run into Mark and it's driven home that some men are certainly larger than others.
"Hey, Nicki," he said. "Your father not home?"
"Nope," I said. "The parents are away for the weekend and I'm all on my own-some."
Sometimes when my father is arguing with my mother or me and he seems totally unable to understand the concept of what we're saying he'll look up at the sky with what I call a 'give me strength' look on his face. For some reason Mark did the same thing right then.
"I see. Ah, I expect that explains why you didn't bother to get dressed."
I grinned and nodded and then stretched.
"Right on," I said happily. "I feel so much more free like this."
"Free, is right," he said. "Ah, if I remember correctly you're eighteen now, aren't you?"
"You should remember," I said, touching my ears. "You bought me these."
I was wearing a very nice set of diamond stud earrings. OK, considering the size of the diamonds I'll have to admit to cubic zirconia, but they were good ones. No cheap rubbish for Mark.
"Hmm. Eighteen and never had a serious boyfriend," he said.
"What?" I sat up indignantly. He blinked and his eyes seemed to drop for a moment. I glanced down and couldn't see anything. I shrugged. Funnily enough I thought he said something rude under his breath when I shrugged. What was wrong with him? What were we discussing? Oh, yes. Boyfriend.
"I have had boyfriends," I stated firmly. "Lots of them," I said, waving my hand to indicate heaps of boyfriends.
"I said a serious boyfriend," he said with a smirk. "It's easy to tell."
"And just what do you mean by that?" I demanded, folding my arms in front of me. You know, boys have an advantage there. They just fold their arms. Women have to work out if they're going to fold their arms over, under, or across their breasts. Those things do get in the way at times. I chose under.
For some reason Mark seemed to be appealing for help once again. How weird was that.
"What do I mean?" He smiled and for some reason I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
He strolled over to me and reached down to the couch next to where I was all curled up. Then his had turned sidewards and he poked me.
My mouth and eyes both popped open. I couldn't believe he'd poked me there of all places.
"Currently closed as tight as a clam afraid of an octopus. If you'd ever had a serious boyfriend then the way you're dressed, with a man in the room, it would be relaxed and flowering, hoping to be touched."
I gave a squeal and I would have curled up in a ball if I wasn't already curled up. Oh my god, he was rubbing me there.
"What are you doing?" I managed to squeak. "Stop that."
He laughed and straightened up, but I was prepared to swear that I could still feel him touching me there.
"Yes," he said with some satisfaction. "It would look more like that."
I hastily reached down and covered myself with my hand. Oh god, he was right. It felt different right now.
"Also," he said with another laugh, "these would have been pointing at me without me touching you first."
He reached down and pressed my nipples, one after the other. I looked down at them and hastily covered my breasts with my other arm. My nipples seemed to have doubled in size and I really felt those touches.
Mark grabbed hold of my wrists and hauled me to my feet. I still wanted to crawl into a ball but it's pretty hard to do while you're standing up.
