I’m making the long weekend longer by taking Friday as annual leave. So this is a day early 😊.

A list of previous writing prompts appears here.

I’m not setting a great example here, but please aim for under 500 words and always under 1,000. Thank you ❤️.




I’m so nervous. People talk about butterflies in their stomachs; I feel like there’s a flock of birds flapping around in mine. This is so weird. Me - little, ugly, awkward me - as… what? An object of desire? Someone who might be… sexy? Yeah, so weird.

And they are gonna be so disappointed. I mean they’ve seen me nude many times, we’ve been intimate many times. Actually we’ve done things I’d never dreamt of; things I’ve adored. But I always thought the spotlight was on them. They are the bright sun in the relationship, I’m Charon; cold and non-luminous. Now they want me to shine. Fuck!

I’m standing in the living room of their apartment. A college kid with an apartment? I’m really not in their league. Not in looks, not in financial standing, certainly not in confidence. But here I am. They are lounging on the couch, clothed and with a slightly amused look on their face. They wake their phone, scroll, and tap. The room’s sound system is now playing ‘Often’ by the Weeknd. The line ‘Baby I can make that pussy rain often’ fills my head. I guess I’m doing this.

With great uncertainty I start to sway. That gets me a smile and an approving nod. Perhaps I can do this, though I still think I might vomit; not a very sexy sensation. But their eyes are on me and I hear the words, “Relax. Just be yourself. That’s all I want. Take your time, I’ll put the song on repeat.” They tap their phone again and smile.

A deep breath and I begin. It’s not like I’m wearing anything sexy. It’s early spring, so I’ve got a cropped peach cardigan as the first layer. I fumble with the buttons, still trying to move rhythmically. And rhythm doesn’t come naturally to me.

My face is probably the color of Betelgeuse at this point, but I detect something else: the beginnings of arousal. Their cheeks look a little flushed too, are they… enjoying my inexpert divestments? I slip the cardigan off my arms and - emboldened just a little - whirl it around my head, before flinging it to one side. I just miss a vase and decide to be more circumspect in the future.

“Pants next,” they instruct. And now they lean forward, a hand drifting to their own crotch. I’m starting to feel like it’s getting hot in here. Surely they can hear my heart pounding, it’s so loud.

I turn away. I glance back over my shoulder. I probably look goofy rather than coquettish, but they don’t seem to mind. I bend. I do it slowly. All that rock climbing gives me great core strength. I run a hand over my derrière. Am I actually beginning to enjoy this?

Straightening, I unclip the waistband, pull the zipper down, and begin to ease the garment over my hips. They are narrow and it’s not a hard task to accomplish. I bend again, now presenting my cotton-clad ass, and wishing I’d worn something more inappropriate. I can feel my panties sticking to my flesh, my own secretions acting as the glue.

Turning again, I’m suddenly bashful once more. I begin to unbutton my blouse. I don’t often wear a bra, it’s kinda superfluous, so when the shirt is gone, I’ll be topless. Why does this give me pause? They’ve suckled on my nipples, they’ve clamped them between their teeth. Why so shy?

I know the answer. It’s because the focus is on me. Skinny, boyish me, pretending to be a real woman. “Don’t stop,” they breathe. And the heat behind those words hits me hard and I’m unbuttoning quickly now.

The last one undone, I let the front hang open, my underlying flesh partly exposed. “Take it off,” they insist.

I slide out of one sleeve, then the other, then let it fall to the floor. My instinct is to cradle my meager mounds, to protect their inadequacy from my companion’s eyes. But something changes inside. Perhaps it’s the way they are looking at me. The way they lick their lips. I stand arms akimbo, head a little to one side. I may not have much to show, but it’s me.

“The panties,” they gasp, their voice hoarse and trembling.

I don’t want to tease. I want to be nude, nude for them. The panties are unceremoniously gone and I’m naked. How they told me to be. How they want me to be. How I want to be.

There is silence as their eyes traverse my skinny form. Their look is lascivious, there is no mistaking their desire. I assume it must be either a mental or optical defect, but their obvious passion is firing my own. My hand wanders to my clit and I massage it, not that my fires need much additional stoking.

In a voice that is clear and astonishingly commanding, I say, “Your turn now… Amy.”
 
"It's time to get hot and steamy," the wife declared.

I knew the time had come. We had to get on with it. We had been putting it off for weeks.

"Are you going to go first?

"Please," I smiled. With a great deal of enthusiasm I placed the head of the wallpaper stripper onto the wall. It hissed as the steam hit the paper.

"I knew you would enjoy it," she said with a wicked smile as I scraped decades of woodchip off.

I knew soemone would…
 
What are the odds? Sligh thought with a silent sigh. An abandoned temple in the middle of these parched mountains, and there was someone else here at the exact same time.

“I guess you already found all the loot.” The woman’s tone was light, but she kept her long sword pointed at his chest. “You must have got here just before me.”

“So it would seem,” Sligh replied. “I don’t suppose you’ll let me keep some of it? A token of appreciation for dealing with a particularly nasty trap.”

“Nope.” The sharp point made a small circle. “Start handing it over. No sudden movements.”

“Ah.” He smirked. “You want it slow and sexy.”

“Slow will do.”

With a small shrug he held up one arm, displaying a wide silver bracelet. With his other hand he pulled it off and placed it on the floor. Next, he drew the golden rings from his fingers, one by one, taking care to show off his elegant hands.

In spite of herself the woman gave a grin. “You’ve done this before.”

“More often than you’d suppose.” He teased the rings from his other hand, then sent them spinning in a glittering arc for a few moments before dropping them onto the stones one by one.

“Nice trick.”

“You should see my next one.” He turned his back to her, stretching in a way that he knew emphasised his legs and arse in the close-fitting hose. Raising his hands behind his head, he unfastened the clasp of the thick golden chain. “It will blow your mind.”

A grunt made him turn round. The woman lay crumpled on the temple’s dusty floor, her sword still in her hand. One of the rings was so close to her face that her breath clouded its bright silver.

Over her stood Avilia, grounding the butt of her spear. “Good job I got here quickly. You’d have been taking off your clothes for her otherwise.”

“Thanks.” He stepped forward and kissed her. “When we get back into town, I’ll do it properly, just for you.”
 
Blen’s chest was tight, she felt dizzy. She filed up the steps, along the stage, over the bridge of no return

In the mirrors opposite, her reflection surprised and delighted her. The boots’ three-inch heels, gave her a tall and slender appearance. To maintain aplomb, she drew herself straight and erect. Through her diaphanous camisole, her pert breasts were visible. The darted garment accentuated the feminine curve to her narrow, exposed waist. From her camisole, suspenders passed under her string thong to black stockings. She looked so glamorous, the epitome of seduction. Affecting a languorous seductive motion - that stylised courtship display, which comes instinctively to teenage girls, she indulged her concupiscent impulse, revelling in the freedom to shamelessly display, and danced to arouse these desirable foreign men.

A tap on her leg. “The customer in the blue shirt want to buy you a drink,” said the waitress.

“What do I do?”

“Sit at his table. Say hello.”

She did so. The waitress placed a glass of cola and ice before her, filled out some vouchers, placed one in the customers tab, and gave the other to Blen. “Keep that to claim your commission.”

He was a balding, grey haired man, with bright eyes, and a direct, but pleasant, manner.

“I haven't seen you before, wer've you been?”

“I'm new.”

“ When d'ja start?”

“Just now.”

“This dance?”

“Yes.”

“Is that why y'were grinning at y'rself in the mirror?”

She giggled. It had been noticed.

“Did y'like what y'saw?”

She giggled and drew her shoulders up.

“I like what you saw. I thought, I'm going to fuck that girl.”

Blen giggled, uneasily. He changed tack. “I'm just a loudmouth who speaks his mind, but y'are a lovely girl, and I like to fuck lovely girls. Wer're y'from?”

Mama Mutia appeared. “Hello Luke, you’ve met Blen.”

“Yeah, me and Blen are friends already.”

“Blen is a cherry girl.”

He turned to Blen. “Is that right?”

She nodded.

“And so beautiful, but I can't afford cherries, a bar-fine with no boom-boom,”

Mutia turned to Blen. “Luke's a regular customer. You’ll see a lot of him. Take him to the back booth. If you give him a blow job, he'll give you a big tip… won't you, Luke?”

“‘Strewth, a blow job from a cherry girl, that's worth a few dollars!”

Mutia said, “Just make him happy for 30 minutes, go under the table and give him a blow job. Tease him first.”

The waitress called “Party time!” and pulled the curtains.

Luke instructed, “Let me look at ya. Take off ya camisole.”

Blen coyly let her camisole slip into her lap, leaving her small, neat breasts exposed. She sat straight, drew back her shoulders , sucked in her stomach and withdrew her hands into her crotch and rubbed, intensely excited by being revealed for his invasive admiration.

“Y'know y'have a lovely body. No bullshit. Y'have.” said Luke.

She felt gratified. My first conquest.

Author's note: I know someone got there before me but hey ho - wise minds and all that.

“So what’ll you be doing today?” I asked my new hunky next door neighbour, Kirk, as we retrieved our respective mail from the boxes.

“Stripping,” he said.

I paused, not sure I’d heard him correctly.

“Really?”

“Yep.” He shuffled through some envelopes, tore some letters ensuring the addresses were destroyed and tossed them into the paper recycling bin nearby. “I have a few regular customers who come back to me, maybe every two years or so.”

“Well, it’s always good to have a customer base you can rely on. Where do you…?”

“In their homes, mainly, but I have two corporate clients.”

We began to walk up the stairs that would bring us back to our apartments. I was fascinated. I’d never met anyone who did, what might be considered by some, a slightly taboo job. Trying not to be too obvious I looked him up and down as he walked slowly beside me.

“So how long have you been doing that?”

“Oh… eh, since I was eighteen… so twenty years now. Boy, time flies. I got into it straight out of high school. My uncle knew someone in the business and they took me on. Never looked back.”

I glanced down at my own body. Forty-four, frumpy, fatigued.

“I like being active and meeting new people and sometimes I get to be a bit creative, if the client isn’t too prescriptive with their vision.”

I nodded. “And what would you typically wear… on the job?”

He paused at the top of a flight of stairs and looked down at me, confusion evident in his expression. My cheeks heated and I knew I was blushing.

Was that too personal a question? How, though? He’d just said he was going to spend his day stripping? Why would wearing clothes be a hot topic? It’s not like I asked him how long his…

“Usually overalls.” I blinked at his reply. “They keep everything nicely covered while I work.”

He pushed the heavy door between the stairwell and our floor. He held it so that I had to walk under his arm. His aftershave wafted to me, it was nice – manly. Our height difference meant I didn’t have to duck and he chuckled a little as he watched me pass.

“I’ve never noticed how tiny you are,” he said softly. His tone had changed and I paused, risking letting our gazes meet. He smiled and the corners of his brown eyes crinkled with laughter lines. He leaned down and I stretched up, our lips pressed together.

“You don’t do anything else for these customers, do you?” I asked, my naturally jealousy rearing it’s head.

“What like, painting and decorating? Or carpentry?”

“Are they euphemisms?”

“For what?”

I blushed again, not believing he was going to make me spell it out. “Sex and things. I’m sure once you’ve stripped you’d become pretty damn difficult to resist and if they’re paying you already why not take it one step further… ” I stopped talking as his frown deepened and his face contorted slightly.

“What on earth are you talking about? Why would I be naked with my customers?”

I stood and glared up at him, hands on hips, chest thrust out.

“You said you were going to spend the day stripping,” I shouted. His expression morphed from serious to blank and then suddenly he was laughing. Fully, bent in half laughing.

“What’s so funny?” I asked, tossing my blonde hair over my shoulder and tapping my foot.

“Wall… pap… ” He tried to speak through guffaws. He placed a large hand on my shoulder to hold himself up as his laughing jag began to ease and subside. He then turned facing me, both hands on my shoulders.

“Wallpaper stripping. I’m an interior decorator. I’ll be stripping wallpaper of some old bird’s walls but I’ve gotta say… I’ll be having thoughts of you and what we can get up to together when you hire me for my special services.”

He began to laugh again and this time I joined him.

Jesus, I’m such a dumb blonde sometimes.

Oh hello, Amy. I wondered why you were using gender neutral pronouns.
 
I logged on. The page opened, showing my stories. A click to sort by date, to show my newest work first.

The score seemed off though. An hour ago it had said 5/9. One more vote, no matter what, and I'd have another cherished red H to my name. Well, my screen name.

But now... now it said 1/1. How...? What had happened? Had somehow all my previous stars been... stripped?
 
I can never get past Goody Two Shoes into the rest of his catalog. Stand and Deliver in small doses. But at the end of the day I just want to make sure they get your good side, good side.
I still enjoy "Room At The Top".

Diane looked at the front window with interst as she walked up the path to their front door. Jack almost always beat her home on Firdays and the house was usually lit. Jack's car was in the drive and the front door opened when she thumbed the latch.

The first thing that caught her eye was that the dining room table was pushed towards the glass doors and the chandelier was lit, but of the six bulbs only two were burning.

"Good evening, my love," she heard as Jack stepped from the hallway into the dimly lit area and she gasped in surprise.

"Jack. Why the hell are you wearing a tuxedo?" she asked, shocked to her core.

Her husband of twelve years, smiled suggestively and reached down and tugged at his cumberbund, which came away very easily with the tearing sound of Velcro.

"Well, you said, that I wanted you to dance for me, I had to ready to do it too." Jack said with a glean in his eye.

Diane shivered in anticipation and a little fear. He was calling her bluff. "You can't be serious."

Jack gave her a predatory smile. "Dead serious. I'm gonna see if you'll put your money-maker where your mouth is."

Reaching back to the out-of-place table, Jack poked at the screen of his phone and instantly the snare drum and high hat backbeat opening of Taco's Puttin' On The Ritz, began. Diane clapped her hand to her mouth to stiffle a laugh as her husband began to shake his hips to the unexpected beat.

Well shit, she thought, but then smiled knowing the evening was going to be a hell of a lot of fun.
 
I'm wracking my brain trying to form the right words for a story about the Lith sisters, Amber and Ruby, and all their stripper friends who hang out in a darkened room with their negative chatter and burning plates, but there are maybe a half dozen people here who would get the joke. 🤷‍♂️

Is this a battery joke 🤷‍♀️?
 
The letters, sometimes, one starts to write, but one by one, the editor comes in. On a good day, an editor will be kind. On others, the editor is a harsh mistress. And on some days... watch out.

"Try again."

I don’t want to do two puns back to back, which is all I’ve got today is seems. So instead I’m recalling a strip poker story I read recently where one of the MCs folds with four aces in order to seal the deal on a flirtation.

We were discussing how the narrator is always us. The fact that you took out letters and left the ellipsis, I would like to enter into evidence as Exhibit N, if it pleases the court.
