On Monday morning, we got up as usual for a weekday and went through our normal routines, except that this morning I didn't even think of dressing, I just put on my shoes.
When I thought about it later, I had been completely naked since Thursday last when I left work for the day, and I had been perfectly comfortable the whole time, and was just as comfortable now. As I said goodbye to Martin, he asked if I had put a dress or something in my bag, just in case the response from work about working naked all the time was a negative one.
I hadn't, and I said I didn't think I would need it -- if I'm not allowed to, I'll either have to come home to get something to wear or they will have to put up with me for another day, and I'll dress thereafter. I did so much hope that they would all agree.
I kissed him and then walked out the door and down the street to the bus stop.
The usual people were at the bus stop waiting and they smiled when I arrived in the same naked condition that I had been last Friday morning, but just seemed to accept it. They were more chatty than would normally be the case though, just like they were on Friday, which made me think how my nudity was breaking down the inhibited nature of people not to talk to even relative strangers.
Most mornings, no one ever spoke, but my nakedness seemed to be breaking that cycle quite nicely and people were chatting away and joking (not at my expense I may add) with each other. The bus arrived a few minutes after I got to the stop and I boarded as usual. There was a different driver today, a woman at that, and as I got on she said "You can't come on here like that you know."
"I can't come on here like what?" I asked, "What is it that I've done to prevent me?"
"You're naked!" she spat back at me.
"Oh, is that all? My fellow travellers don't mind" and I turned to the passengers and directed it at them, "do you?"
Turning back to face the driver I said, "They were all happy with it on Friday, so why not today -- or have you never seen yourself naked in a mirror before?" and I then showed her my bus pass and walked away down the bus.
She started to shout after me and the guy who had been behind me getting on chastised her for her narrow mindedness and that all the regular passengers were happy with my attire, "So leave her alone." he finished.
Louisa, the woman who had been dubious about me last week, called to me and patted the seat next to her, so I went to sit with her. "Good morning, how are you today?" I asked as I sat down.
"I'm fine, thank you." she said. "And, I had a very interesting conversation with my husband about you on the weekend and we did some looking around on the internet. I have found that there are thousands of people around the world like yourself, those who like to be just naked, and those who like to be naked in public specifically -- exhibitionism it's called -- so it is not as unusual or weird as I had expected it to be. After reading all that stuff on the computer, my hubby said to me why don't you try it around the house for a while, then you'll see what all the fuss is about and how relevant and accurate your concerns and, now previous, inhibitions have been. Well, to cut a long story short, I did go about the house naked on Saturday afternoon, and I now see the enjoyment that you get from it -- it is indeed liberating, so I have changed my opinion from that of last week. I don't have the courage to show myself off like you are, but I did feel that it was enjoyable. We are thinking of going to a clothes optional beach someday, or a club, a Naturist club nearby, to see what it is like to be naked in the outdoors. I'm quite excited about trying it too, so maybe soon I'll have something else to tell you. It was quite an interesting weekend for other, albeit related, reasons too -- hubby, and for that matter me too, were quite turned on by the experience. What I'm trying to say, in a round about way, is sorry for making it difficult for you last week, and thank you for showing my another way of living and," and she whispered, "for giving me one of the most sexy weekends I've had in a very long time."
I took her hand and said, "Thank you for that, and for your support last week. It was a little easier for me to start going naked, I suppose, as I have always liked skimpy clothes and lots of attention anyway, but I do hope you will try it a bit more, and maybe you could come naked yourself one day until you get to your stop when you can dress, and that you enjoy it as much as Martin and I do. It would be lovely to have a travelling companion too."
"Maybe I shall some day, that would be something wouldn't it -- two of us naked on a public bus!" and she kissed my cheek.
The remainder of the journey went much as it did last week, so nothing to report otherwise there, and the walk into work was pretty much the same, a few car horns, and shouted encouragements, mostly anyway, and then I was once again crossing the car park to the office complex.
The building receptionist was quite surprised to see me naked once again and she said "I thought it was only Friday we would have naked people about, what's happening today then?"
"Nothing out of the ordinary, just a normal working day today as far as I know, and good morning to you too."
"Why are you naked again, not that I'm complaining of course, I think you look sexy as hell and I wish I had your guts -- especially since you don't appear to have brought anything to cover yourself up with if you need to."
"I just found during the course of last week that I love being naked and just accepted for it, so I asked Friday evening if I could work naked all the time. They are going to decide today if I can or not, so I may be here naked every day -- would you be OK with that?"
"Yes, it would -- like I said I think you're gutsy and sexy as hell, and I love your bald pussy, if I may call it that. But, what if they don't agree to allow it -- what happens then 'cause you don't have anything to dress in do you?" she asked.
"No, I don't -- I thought I would just take the chance that it would be OK. If they don't I'll either have to go get something or they will have to put up with me for another day, won't they."
She smiled again and said, "See you later then, I hope."
