Author's Note: I decided to revisit Michelle because she was so much fun to write before. She was just as much fun this time. I hope you enjoy this episode. - Chip King

"Promise?"
"Aw come on, Chelle. Just tell me the story." Her husband's voice carried the tone of a teenage boy complaining about yard work.
"No." Michelle let go of his cock and crossed her arms. "I'm not telling you anything until you promise."
Rob looked down from his seat on the living room chair, his erection the only thing blocking the view of his wife's ample tits. "You don't play fair," he complained.
"I don't play at all unless you promise." Michelle squeezed her arms tighter around her boobs, pushing them together in what Rob called her "French barmaid look."
"Alright, alright, you win. I promise."
"You won't get mad?"
"I won't get mad."
"No matter what I tell you?"
Rob gave her a concerned look. "Michelle, just what in the hell did...?"
"Just promise me. Promise me right now or I'm not telling you anything."
Her husband tore his gaze away from her boobs and looked straight into her puppy-dog eyes. Michelle's position on her knees in front of him gave a submissive appearance but Rob knew that was deceiving. "I trust you, baby. I promise I won't get mad -- no matter what you tell me."
"Okay," Michelle said as she let out a sigh of relief. "So, I guess you want me to stroke you while I tell the story."
Rob gave her a smirk like she had just asked if he would want a beer while watching the Steelers game. She smiled and reached up to run a finger along the sensitive underside of his dick.
"Alright. Here's my story..."
***
First of all, the strippers are Ayla's idea. And don't you raise your eyebrows at me. Just because you like looking at naked women doesn't mean I want to see any naked men. But I really don't have any choice in the matter. Honestly, looking back on it I think Ayla wanted to have strippers more for herself than for my little sister, although Erin sure seemed to enjoy them, too.
"So how many strippers are you getting?" Ayla asks me, right there in the middle of our Book Club. You remember Ayla Raynor, right? Bleached blonde, too much makeup? One of Erin's college friends. No? She's the one with the big fake boobs. Oh, so now you remember. Typical.
"Strippers?" She catches me off guard -- as I'm sure is her intention -- and my face flushes crimson. Here we are, talking about the moral dilemma of the latest Jodi Picoult novel and she wants to talk about strippers.
Ayla pats me on the knee like I'm in a nursing home and can't find my teeth. "Don't you worry about it, sweetie. I'll take care of the entertainment."
Before I can respond her friends start squawking like a gaggle of wayward geese and I realize that I am outnumbered on this. Anything I say against the afore mentioned strippers would only serve to make me seem even more of a fuddy-duddy. And yes, I'm aware that my use of the term "fuddy-duddy" only reinforces the point but I don't care.
I really don't think much about it after that. Thanks to Ayla, the guest list grows to near fifty women and I have enough on my plate with arranging for the food and the music and the decorations. My boss is generous enough to allow us to use the second-floor office space and banquet room so...
Oh, I'm sorry. You don't want to hear about all this. Why, you're barely hard. Well, if you let me stop talking for a just moment or two I'll fix that.

...mmmm...there, that's much better. Now let me get to the part you wanted to hear.
It really is a nice, quiet bachelorette party at first. The conversation is lively and the caterer really does a nice job with the refreshments. Everyone seems to be having a great time and I'm feeling pretty good about the arraignments. Erin catches my arm and tells me that she really appreciates all my hard work. I'm pleased as punch but apprehensive about the plans Ayla has made.
So, I'm standing with Erin by the punch bowl when I hear the first whoops and whistles. The crowd that has quickly formed around the door parts like spreading arms and I see four men in military fatigues walking purposefully across the banquet hall floor.
"Michelle!" Erin says with surprise and gives me a mischievous smile. "I'm shocked."
"I had nothing to do with it," I assure her.
Erin reflexively turns her head in Ayla's direction. The hussy is beaming like the prom queen and I have to fight the urge to slap the smug look off her over-painted face.
"Let me just see if the boys need any help with their...equipment," Ayla says with a wink, bringing a round of laughs from her coven and I wonder for the hundredth time just how she and Erin remain friends.
I excuse myself to check on the punch bowl. Of course, the caterer has already taken care of everything wonderfully -- even if the punch has a bit too much vodka in it. Actually, I just want a reason to put some space between me and the show.
After a short consultation with the men and the DJ, Ayla takes the microphone and walks to the small stage at the front of the room. "Ah, ladies...could I have your attention please?" The room quiets with anticipation.
When everyone is still she continues. "It seems ladies that we are in a bit of trouble."
I pause for the briefest of moments to consider if these men actually are military personnel and what possible breach of conduct our gathering could have incurred. Then Ayla says that she's going to let the Colonel explain.
The compact man who takes the microphone doesn't look old enough to vote, much less be a Colonel. But he speaks with a surprisingly authoritative voice which does nothing to quell my rising concern.
"Ladies," he says firmly. "We have it on good authority that one of you present here is a spy."
A spy! A spy for whom? For what purpose? A spy does sound a bit ridiculous but what do I know? Shit, is this for real?
The small man continues despite the sprinkling of nervous laughter. "With this in mind, we have been given the authority to detain and interrogate you. I promise you, anyone holding out on us will be...punished."
Detained? I can't be detained. I've never been detained. And punished? What the hell!
"So if you ladies don't provide us with what we need," the Colonel continues, "we will...drill you until you can barely walk!"
WHOOO! The room erupts with screams and whistles. I'm momentarily relieved that these men are just the strippers. And then instantly I think, Oh my God, these men are the strippers!
Colonel starts working the crowd. "And if we must, we will pound you until you beg for mercy."
Another thunderous roar from the previously sedate group of women threatens to drown out the loudspeaker.
Colonel continues to talk into the microphone over the voracious din, working in his words between the building volume of the gathering. "So, tonight ladies, if you have been looking for a few good men...we are the few, the proud...we will be all we can be...because tonight is not just a job...it's an adventure!"
I'm startled by the blast of Sousa march-music as I watch the four military men come to attention and salute. And then, just as I am about to put my hand over my heart, the giant speakers go silent. One second...two...three...and then, wham with the base guitar of some hip-hop song and our small militia transforms before my eyes into a Backstreet Boys tribute band.
The suggestive dancing seems rather juvenile to me but it has an immediate effect on the crowd of women. The first song has them all dancing, and shouting for the removal of clothing. By the third song shirts are unbuttoned and the once calm and serene bachelorette party is takes on the frenzy of a Spring Break wet t-shirt contest.
I can't believe the level of hysteria I'm witnessing. The women are really eating this up. Not that I didn't expect it out of some of them but really...
Chloe Santiago plays the organ at church. I can see her up front, standing on a chair and grabbing her crotch. The president of our Garden Club, Mandy West, has Doris Kellerman bent over a table and is pretending to hump her from behind. I spit out a mouthful of punch when I see Mrs. Gallimore grabbing her boobs. Damn, the woman is just shy of sixty.
When I look back to the stage I see that the fatigues have magically disappeared and the four men are gyrating with the music in the skimpiest of g-strings and matching chokers, much to the delight of the boisterous mob of women. Even standing this far back I am a bit embarrassed. You know I've never seen a stripper before and I have no plans to get too close tonight.
