Next day was Thursday. I didn't expect an escalation until Monday. So I was surprised to find a pair of white knee high socks, a pair of pink panties and a yellow crop top on my bed.
The crop top was relatively new, and therefore fit me properly. It had been a birthday present from my cousin. It hung to just below my rib cage. It was far too revealing for the shy me, so I'd never worn it. I forgot it even existed. But Kevin had obviously come across it and decided it was time I gave it an airing.
I opened my wardrobe to find it completely empty, as was my underwear draw. The message was clear; these were my clothes for the day. Kevin had chosen what I would wear. He had removed all choice. And if I acquiesced, I knew it would become the new status quo. He would always be choosing my clothes. I also knew that that's what I wanted.
Exposing my midriff was something new and exciting. In the last few days, I'd worn shirts that showed the lower curve of my stomach. But never my belly button. And definitely not my whole abdomen. Despite all the outfits I'd worn up to this point, nothing had left anything like as much of my smooth, soft, pale skin exposed as this new outfit. Could I really parade around in this? Kevin clearly expected me to! I couldn't tear my eyes away from my reflection.
I was still looking at the mirror when the sound of the front door pulled me back to reality.
"Emma," Kevin called. "Come down stairs."
Despite my nerves, I didn't hesitate. I knew I was going to show off in front of Kevin and his friends. I lived for it now, and was eager to begin.
When Kevin saw I'd dressed in the clothes he'd laid out for me his face broke out into a wolfish grin.
The Xbox was on. The now ubiquitous Night Junky queued up. I had danced to it so many times now, it should have seemed mundane, but it was still exciting. Dressed as I was, showing off my belly for the first time, it still had my heart racing.
I took up my position in front of the screen; in front of the sofas where all 5 boys were sitting. I was ready to perform.
They didn't waste any time. Paul hit play as soon as I took up my position in front of them.
I went through the now too familiar routine. The same erotic moves still had the same effect, my braless tits bouncing under the small shirt. But some of the more mundane moves took on a new significance; sliding my hand across my stomach, rolling and shaking my hips seemed to accentuate my increased exposure.
We were a minute into the evening's second performance of Night Junky, when the music suddenly stopped.
"Dude!?" Paul protested to my brother who had paused the game.
"Just a minute," Paul responded before raising his phone to his ear. "Hi mum."
I felt a sudden pang of fear knowing my brother was on the phone to my mother. What if she could see me now? Dressed in a crop top and panties, dancing for my brother and his friends?
