"Please, just let me go quickly" James, stuck naked and on all fours on the kitchen table until Nicola instructed him otherwise, was eyeing the route to the relative privacy of the bathroom desperately "I can still make it upstairs!"
"No chance!" Nicola scoffed as she relaxed into a chair at the side of the room and anticipated the drama that was about to unfold for her entertainnent "this is going to be way too funny"
"I'm home, anyone in?' A female voice called out as the front door shut and footsteps made their way straight to the kitchen. James gulped in horror as the doorhandle moved downwards and the door began to creak open. There was no escaping this now. This was actually happening.
"Hi, sorry I'm a bit late back this evening I just stopped off at the..."
The pretty, dark haired young woman stopped in mid speech in stunned silence as she laid eyes on the naked man looking almost apologetically at her from on top of the kitchen table. For a moment, she was completely lost for words.
"Hi Anna" Nicola grinned evilly from her seat "have you met my friend James?"
"Um, no.." Anna was naturally a little embarassed "Hello James. Um, if you don't mind me asking why are you..?"
James sighed as he prepared himself to repeat the lines Nicola had given to him earlier.
"Because I'm a dirty little pervert and I love to show everyone my hot, naked body" he felt his cheeks turning red as he recited the dreaded words "would you like a feel of my pert little bum?"
"Um, no, that's fine thank you" Anna looked at the floor awkwardly. The next few moments felt like hours to James.
"Right, well I need to get changed" Nicola smiled mock innocently as she sauntered out of the room "I'll leave you two to get better acquainted"
The next few moments felt even longer than the last few had for James as Anna stood and rubbed her arm nervously, not sure quite how to handle this. Then he spied the remote poking out from Nicola's bag. It was his only hope.
"Um, so you work with Nicola right?" Anna began awkwardly.
"Quick, grab the remote from Nicola's bag and ask me to get off the table" James instructed urgently rather than engage in such smalltalk.
"Excuse me?" Poor Anna naturally looked totally confused, but shrugged and did as she was told.
James gratefully jumped off the table. But before he could get very far..
"Ok, wait there!" Anna announced suddenly. James froze on the spot as, unfortunately for him, she was still holding the remote "tell me exactly what is going on here"
"Nicola is using that remote to control me" James was obliged to reply "I know it sounds crazy but it's true"
"Thid is the dumbest prank ever" Anna folded her arms in disbelief, but kept a firm grip on the remote.
"Do you seriously think I would have done any of this of my own free will?" James reasoned "Please, just give it to me so I can destroy it"
Anna thought for a moment, James had looked mortfied when she had first met him. He probably wasn't doing any of this out of choice. But a magic remote? She needed to explore this further before just doing what she was told.
