I had an inkling that the errand Beth had asked me to run was just a ruse to get me out of the house for some reason and, when I returned, that suspicion was confirmed. My scheming wife met me at the door with a twinkle in her eyes and a knowing smile.
"Hello, darling," she purred. "I have a secret, surprise present for you."
"A secret, surprise present? How exciting!" My eyes lingered on her body. She was wearing a black silk bathrobe which caressed and emphasised her delicious curves rather than veiling them. "Do I get to unwrap it now?"
Beth laughed and toyed with the front of her robe, revealing more of her soft pale cleavage. "Don't be stupid! My body isn't exactly a secret to you, is it? Have patience. For now, you just need to unwrap yourself. Pop upstairs and have a quick shower then come to the bedroom where I will have something for you to wear."
"A secret, surprise present that involves dressing up? Intriguing!" I hurried upstairs. It was probably one of the quickest showers I've ever taken; I was keen to see what secret surprise Beth had in store for me. Was it going to be some new cosplay outfit? Or perhaps some bondage gear? A fluttering of anticipation started to grow in my chest. I rapidly towelled myself dry and padded naked to the bedroom where Beth was waiting. I looked around for the outfit I was meant to wear but couldn't see anything. Beth smiled wickedly and, from behind her back, brought out a bottle of body oil and a velvet blindfold.
"Is that all I'm going to be wearing? Very minimalist," I quipped. "I'm assuming that this 'secret, surprise present' doesn't involve going out for dinner, then?"
Beth said nothing. She slowly walked behind me and tied the blindfold in place. I felt the silk of her robe brush against my thigh as she circled back in front of me. "Stand still," she whispered as she began to massage the oil onto the front of my body.
"Mmmm! This is a special present," I murmured as Beth knelt down and rubbed oil up my legs and onto my swelling penis.
"Oh, this isn't the secret, surprise present. This is just... useful preparation." She stood up and took my hand.
"Aren't you going to do my back too?" I asked, confused. She ignored my question.
"Come with me," she breathed. "And try not to bump into any furniture on the way." She led me down the stairs. I briefly wondered why we didn't just stay in the bedroom but Beth obviously had other plans. Maybe we
were
going outside. But, no, she guided me into our living room and I wasn't sure whether to be relieved or slightly disappointed.
A tiny amount of light leaked around the edges of the blindfold, enough for me to know that the blinds were down and the room was dimly lit. She led me to the centre of the room. In the place where our coffee table should have been was a large rug which was soft under my bare feet.
"Lie down, darling. Keep your hands out to the sides, spread your legs apart nice and wide... and don't move or speak until I say you can," she commanded. I did as instructed and I heard Beth backing away from me.
As I lay there on my back in our living room, I gradually became aware of other very faint sounds around me. Was that the rustle of clothing? Was that someone breathing? I became increasingly convinced that there were other people in the room whilst I lay there completely naked on the floor. I don't have a nudity taboo but neither do I have any strong exhibitionist tendencies. I felt very exposed, very vulnerable... and very excited!
I shuffled a little on the rug, wondering what would happen next but the silence continued. All I knew was that Beth and an undetermined number of people were, probably, staring at my supine, naked body. I could feel the first stirrings of an erection at the thought and I wondered if that was what they were waiting for. I felt a strong urge to move my hands over my genitals -- whether to cover myself or to speed up my hard-on, I wasn't quite sure. But Beth's 'don't move' had been very firm. So, I waited.
Finally, there were simultaneous sounds of movement from around the edges of the room. It was the sound of people undressing. I could hear clothing sliding over skin and then dropping to the floor. It sounded as if there were at least four other people in the room apart from Beth. I was pretty sure I heard the subtle whisper of Beth's silk robe being removed amongst the other sounds.
The disrobing noises ended and the silence returned. I tried to imagine the scene: a blindfolded man lying naked on the floor with a partial erection being watched by five or more people who were now also probably (hopefully?) naked and presumably not blindfolded. Maybe they were also wearing blindfolds and we were all about to play some bizarre naked party game. Naked sardines, anyone?
Again, I lay and waited for what seemed like an age. My initial excitement had transformed into mild perplexity. The air-conditioning was on and I could feel the oil on my skin cooling. Eventually, there were more sounds of movement -- slow, quiet footsteps approaching me from various directions. They all started at the same time and I wondered if Beth was directing them with silent signals. My excitement began to mount anew. The footsteps stopped and I figured that they were now standing about a foot away from me. Once again, there was silence as these unknown individuals loomed over my exposed body.
