Chapter 1

The credits started with the countdown to the next episode.

That was awesome!" Max exclaimed and closed Netflix on his tablet. "I have to watch the next episode later!" He jumped off his bed and stretched. Time to get dressed.

He reached down and took his Ninja Turtles underwear off. Cool air rushed over his penis. Hey! This feels good! I never noticed… He looked down …

 Why do I need clothes anyway? Animals go around naked and they seem perfectly fine…  Hmm… It would be cool to go out wearing nothing... But, I'd get in trouble… Hmm? He opened his drawer abnd looked. That's too much work! He closed the drawer. I'm gonna do it! He left his room.

Thankfully, Mom's at work. He walked to the door abnd looked down. He was about to do the craziest thing he's ever done! He will get in major trouble, but he didn't care.

Ooh! Sunscreen! He ran in the bathroom , opened the cabinet, and grabbed the bottle.  He squirted a glob into his hand  And rubbed it on his arms, legs, chest. "Might as well get my privates..."

"Now that I'm  protected from the sun, let's try it again!"   He returned to the front hallway.  

"Here goes…"  Max sighed and opened the door. Bright light felt inviting. Cicadas make that loud SHHHHH noise as heat rushed in. Max starred across the street. Am I really about to go out naked?  He gulped.        After this, say goodbye to fun for the rest of your life! He told himself. He took a deep breath and walked  out. Warm air blew on his bare body. He walked in the driveway and smiled. This is cool. He never felt so… free!

 He walked to his bike, which was lying in the grass. His mom always warned him not to leave his bike out in the front 6yard. But, nobody has stolen it, so…

He picked it up and walked it over to the driveway.

"Aw, crap!" he exclaimed.  The seat will fry my bare butt! He moved his bike in the shade. Then, he spat on the seat and rubbed it to cool it down a little. Better.

He hopped on and yelped.  WARM! But, not hot. 

Max pedaled into the street. I can't believe I'm doing this! Max got to the end of the street and turned.

A man was watering his flowers a few houses down. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced up.

"Whoa! Youre naked!"

"Yeah?" Max said and pulled over.

"Where are your clothes?"

"I don't need them."

"O…K.  Where do you live?"

"Down the street," I lied.

"You should go home and put some clothes on.

"Why?"

"Getting smart with me?"

"What if I am?"

"How old are you?"

"Ten."

"Where are your parents?"

"At work."

"You should go home and put some clothes on.

"I don't want to."

"Why?"

"Look, I decide what to wear, OK?"

"\Fine!" he walked away.

I pedaled my bike down the street.

"What the Hell?" a voice I dreaded called.

Uh-oh! Trouble!" I looked as Benson ran in the street.

"Nice penis!"

"Thanks."

"What did you do? Your brain finally snapped from all those swirlies?"

I pulled over to the curb. "Those questions don't go together."

"You're questioning my intellect?"

"Yeah."

"Better think again," Benson slammed his fist into his opened hand.

I shook my bare butt at him.

"YOURE DEAD!"

Max hopped back on his bike and pedaled,

When he looked back,  Branson was further behind.

Max turned the corner. "Lost him!"

Max pedaled to Caesar's Comics and parked his bike. He hopped off and removed his helmet.

"Lets see how they like me," he muttered, opened then door and walked in.

Everyone stared at him.

"What? HEY! Where are your clothes?" a black-haired employee blurted out.

"Can I just look at Comic books?"

 "What do you think?"

"I'll leave."

"I think the police will say something about this!"

Max dashed out.

Well, it was worth a try." I felt the urge. Well, when in Rome… Max walked around the store, grabbed his thing,  and peed on the ground. Aah!  That's better! Max turned around and saw his friend, Jack.

"Max? Is that you?"

"Yep!" I smiled.

He rode over. Where are your clothes?"

"I'm sick of wearing them.}"

What?"

"Why do we need clothes, anyway?"

"You're not making sense."

"I'm free! Being naked feels wonderful!"

"You're being weird."

"So, what if I am? "

"I'll take you to my house and you can put on fresh clothes…"

"No."

"Come on, you're gonna get in trouble!"

"I don't care! I'm staying naked! "

"When did you decide this?"

"Today."

"What bought this on?"

"I took my clothes off to change and realized I love being naked."

"You just can't go around in your birthday suit! You're lucky you haven't gotten into big trouble."

"It's my body! I'll do what I want!"

Luke bit his lip. "I gotta go. Please get clothes."

"No."

"Seeya."  He left.

"Ah, who needs clothes!" I picked my bike up, sat down, and rode off.

I'm starting to like the feel of the warm, leather seat touching my bare butt. Max laughed. I love being naked! I stopped, looked both ways, and turned the corner. I wasn't going anywhere in particular. Just loving the fresh air.  

Max turned into an empty park.

"Ah, just me." He  stopped and hopped off.

"Guess who?"

Max was pushed down on his  stomach.

Max looked up. Benson sneered down at him.

"I'm sorry I insulted you. You really are smart."

"Why don't I take you to my house?"

"Huh?"

"Then, we could talk…"

"I really gotta go home," Max lied.

"Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you."

" Yeah, right!"

"Come with me. I insist."

Max remembered watching Benson  give my friends wedgies and swirlies.  Max had a clue what Benson would do to him if he said no. "OK," he  said.

When Max followed Benson to his house, He opened the door and walked in. "Come on."

"Uh…"

"Will you please trust me?"

Max walked in.

Benson closed the door. "Now, tell me why are you naked?"

"What are you gonna do to me?"

"Nothing. I'm just curious."

"I just wanted to, OK?"

"Cool, I wish I  had guts like you."

"What is this? What are you doing?"

"Chill. Can we just talk?"

"Why?"

"I'd like to get to know you."

"What are you planning?"

"Nothing."

"I don't trust you."

"I understand, but I admire your bravery."

"Yeah, right."

"I really do. It takes guts to do what you did."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"Thanks."

"What do you say we team up?"

"What?"

"Be friends. Hang out…"

"Why?"

"I like your spirit, Max."

"You do?"

"Yes."

"Thanks!"

"So, what do you say?"

"What the heck, ill do it!"

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Awesome! Shake?"

"Yes," I replied and held my arm out.

But, he grabbed Max's penis and shook!
