Thursday night John was watching TV when Kelly walked into the room, sat down on his lap, and kissed him.
"Uh-oh...you want something. What is it this time and how much does it cost?" John asked.
"This time it's free." Kelly said.
"If it's free then why are you doing your thing where you sit on my lap and kiss me to get me to buy you something?" John asked.
"I also do this when I want you to do something." Kelly said.
"Oh...that's right...most of the time even that costs me money though." John said.
"Well this time the only money it will cost you is however much gas it takes us to get there and back." Kelly said.
"Get where and back?" John asked.
"The party that Eric and Lisa us to this weekend." Kelly said.
"Why would we drive there? They live 2 houses down the street." John said.
"The party isn't at their house." Kelly said.
"Then where is it?" John asked.
"It's up at some lake at a summer camp that they rented." Kelly said.
"They rented a summer camp for a party?" John asked.
"Well it's actually a weekend long event. Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday. They rented the summer camp because it was cheaper than everybody getting hotels and to give them plenty of room for everyone to have a good time." Kelly said.
"Just how many people are going to be at this party?" John asked.
"From the sound of things probably around 100 or so." Kelly said.
"That's a pretty big party. We were only invited now? What kind of friends are they if they invite us to a party at the last minute?" John asked.
"Well...they weren't going to invite us at all, but I had lunch with Lisa today. We got to talking about our plans for the weekend. I told her that you'd probably go golfing and I'd probably do laundry. When I asked her what she and Eric were doing she was hesitant to tell me at first, but I kept on her until she told me." Kelly said.
"What exactly did she tell you?" John asked.
"She told me that every year she, Eric, and a bunch of their friends get together at that summer camp for a weekend of fun." Kelly said.
"We're they're friends...why have we never been invited...or even heard about it before?" John asked.
"I was a little hurt by that myself so I asked Lisa why we'd never been invited and she told me that she didn't think we'd have wanted to come. She said that if we did want to come we'd be more than welcome though and she officially invited us." Kelly said.
"Okay...you can tell me what the catch is now. You can tell me why they've never invited us in the past. You can tell me why you sat on my lap and kissed me like you do when you want something. What's the catch Kelly?" John asked.
Kelly looked nervous.
"Well there is one little catch." Kelly said.
"I knew it...what is it?" John asked.
"Well...it's...a nudist party." Kelly said.
John was surprised.
"Nudist...as in everyone would be naked?" John asked.
"Yes. That's why they haven't invited us in the past. They were afraid that we'd be shocked by it." Kelly said.
"You don't seem to be shocked by it Kelly...since you're sitting on my lap like this it means that you want to go." John said.
"Well...I've never been shy John...you know that. Going to a nudist party wouldn't be a big deal for me...it would be the first one I'd been to, but it wouldn't be a big deal to me." Kelly said.
"Me on the other hand..." John said.
"I know John...I know that this has all come as quite a shock to you and if you absolutely don't want to do it we just won't go. I would certainly never go to something like that alone and leave you here to rip your hair out wondering what I might be doing. I do want to go, but if you don't we'll just stay home." Kelly said.
They sat silently for a few minutes. John was deep in thought and Kelly was staring at John trying to read his eyes to see if he was going to say yes or no. Finally John shrugged.
"You said that I didn't have to lose any weight for you and I believe that you meant it, but if I'm going to be naked in front of a whole lot of strangers I'll sure be glad that I lost that 70 pounds and have these 6-pack abs." John said.
"You mean you'd be okay with us going?" Kelly asked.
"Yes...I guess I'd be okay with it...I'm not exactly excited about it like you are, but I'd be okay with it." John said.
Kelly excitedly hugged and kissed John then she ran off to call Lisa and tell her the good news as well as getting all of the directions.
"What time do we need to be there tomorrow night?" John asked.
"They expect most of the people to start showing up after 4:00." Kelly said.
"Okay...that means we'd have to leave here around 3:15. I'll leave work at 2:30 and come home to pick you up." John said.
"Isn't it great being self employed?" Kelly asked.
"It does have its benefits. I guess we'd better pack tonight huh?" John asked.
"Pack?" Kelly asked.
"Yeah...a toothbrush, toothpaste, a comb, my electric razor, oh and sandals. I don't plan on walking around barefoot do you?" John asked.
"I hadn't even thought of that. No I don't think I want to walk around barefoot either. Luckily we have those sandals we bought in Hawaii. We'd better go pack now so we make sure we get everything we need." Kelly said.
They both packed a little travel kit with the essentials.
"You need to pick up sunscreen tomorrow." John said.
"Good idea." Kelly said.
Friday at 4:30 John and Kelly pulled into the summer camp. They found two naked women with clipboards waiting by the road.
"Names?" Mary asked.
"John and Kelly Evans." John said.
"Evans...Evans...oh here we go...cabin 26...all the way down at the end." Mary said.
As they drove down to their cabin they saw several people coming out of the other cabins completely naked and walking towards the main building. John pulled up to their cabin; they walked inside and found a double bed with a note on it.
"Normally we double and sometimes triple people up, but since you're first timers and since John would freak out you've got your own cabin. Lisa." John read.
"That was nice of her." Kelly said.
"Yeah. Well...if we're going to do this we might as well get it done." John said.
John and Kelly took off their clothes except for their sandals. They walked out of their cabin.
"Well...shall we?" John asked.
He offered his arm. Kelly took his arm and they started walking the same way the other people were walking. They followed a group of 5 people around into the area behind the main building where several tables had been set up. There were more than 50 people already there.
"Oh look...there's Lisa and Eric." Kelly said.
They walked over to Lisa and Eric.
"Hi guys, glad you could make it." Eric said.
"We wouldn't have missed it for the world...would we sweetie?" John asked.
Kelly laughed.
"If you'd gone your whole life without coming to something like this it would have been just fine by you. I'm glad that you said we could come though, it really means a lot to me." Kelly said.
Kelly kissed John.
"It means a lot to us too. By the way John...I haven't seen you with your shirt off since you lost all that weight...that's some bod you've got on you." Lisa said.
"I haven't seen you with your shirt off since I lost the weight either...and you've got a pretty damn nice body on you too." John said.
All four of them laughed.
"Well...feel free to mingle around, meet some people. There are drinks over there." Eric said.
John left Kelly behind and practically sprinted over to the bar and poured himself some whiskey.
"He sure headed for the booze pretty quick." Lisa said.
"He just needs it to help him relax. He could be wearing coveralls right now and be uncomfortable around all these naked people...the fact that he's naked too just makes things worse. We'll get a couple of drinks in him and he'll relax." Kelly said.
"Okay...well I hope you both have fun this weekend." Eric said.
Kelly turned to walk over to John.
"Oh Kelly...by the way...you're a very lucky woman." Lisa said.
"What do you mean?" Kelly asked.
"You know what I mean." Lisa said suggestively.
"Oh...yes I am." Kelly said.
She giggled. Kelly got over to John as he was downing another shot.
"Easy there sweetheart, don't get smashed just yet, people will think you're a drunken idiot." Kelly said.
"I'm just trying to take the edge off and right now the edge is pretty big." John said.
"The edge isn't the only thing around here that's pretty and big." Kelly said.
She put her arms around John from behind and kissed his shoulder.
"Kelly, the last thing I need right now is for you to get me all worked up." John said.
"Okay sweetie. There's music and I see a dance floor set up over there. Let's go dance while we let that alcohol start to work." Kelly said.
"Okay." John said.
John and Kelly walked over to the dance floor and started dancing near the edge. They danced to a few songs and then a tango came on.
"Who plays a tango at a nudist party?" John asked.
"Apparently Lisa does." Kelly said.
John looked and saw Lisa by the stereo system.
"Damn her...she knows I can't resist a tango." John said.
As the other couples cleared the dance floor John grabbed Kelly and they started dancing. Several of the couples gathered around the dance floor and watched as John and Kelly danced. When the song ended John had Kelly tilted back dramatically and was holding one of her legs up in the air. The crowd applauded. John let Kelly up and walked over to Lisa who was smiling.
"That was a dirty trick Lisa." John said.
"I'm sorry John, I couldn't help myself. I knew you wouldn't be able to resist." Lisa said.
John was about to say something, but instead he turned and ran towards the lake.
"What the hell? Where's he going?" Lisa asked.
