Quickly back on top Adam shows off his superior passing skills moving the ball around with ease leaving Adam chasing shadows. Chelsea force a corner and the ball is launched towards the back post where Gary Cahill rises highest and heads the ball right into the net.

“Yes,” Adam shouts as he retakes the lead, “Face it man you just can’t beat me,” He says turning his head towards his friend.

Josh mutters something under his breath as he grabs his t shirt and peels it off. Both men are now shirtless and Adam looks at his friend’s skinny hairless frame and he can’t help but grin again.

“And don’t forget when you lose you are gonna tell me just why you shave off all your hair,” The blonde winks hoping to embarrass Josh a little more.

“Well only if I’m naked right?” Josh asks a sudden shock of fear running though his now shirtless body.

Adam shakes his head, “No you said next time I beat you, you would tell me why, you said nothing about being naked.”

“Well then that’s not fucking fair,” Josh complains, “That means I have that on the line as well as my clothes.”

The blonde thinks about it for a second then says, “Well to make it fair if I you win how about I tell you something embarrassing about myself.”

“Dude I know all your embarrassing secrets why don’t you tell me a dirty secret about yourself,” Josh offers.

Adam thinks about it for a second before deciding, “Ok man it’s a deal, if you somehow manage to beat me I’ll tell you something I’ve never told anyone.”

Josh grins, “Perfect but I’m gonna make you regret saying that,” The young teen says, “Cause now I’m really gonna play all out to win.”

The shaven headed winger sounds fired up and to prove how serious he is now about winning Josh makes a triple substitution. Josh’s bold strategy almost works as Theo Walcott cuts in from the right hand side and fires a shot that just deflects wide. Since Adam’s goal Josh has been dominating possession but as time ticks down in the second half he still can’t find a break through. A rare attack from Chelsea draws Hazard into the box but he is easily disposed and Josh launches a counter attack. A through ball breaks Welbeck free from the defenders and he gets one on one with the keeper. Courtois again proves to be a massive barrier as he blocks Welbeck’s shot and then comfortably caches the rebound.

“Holy shit I fucking hate Courtois,” Josh complains frustrated that he still can’t equalize.

The match moves into the final 10 minutes and Josh is doing everything he can to score. Welbeck picks up a cross right on the edge of the box and easily turns his defender but again the big Belgium goalkeeper saves the powerful shot.

“You know without Courtois I think I’d be naked right now,” Adam admits as he watches the reply of his goalkeeper saving yet another shot.

“Think I don’t know that?” Josh spits in frustration, “He is like a fucking cheat player I can’t believe I’m not winning this.”

Adam feels bad for his despairing friend but this is a game and he is still playing hard hoping to get the win to find out why Josh fully shaves himself. The game ticks over into the 90th minute and Adam just tries to keep hold of the ball looking to play out time. That tactic doesn’t wok however as Josh wins the ball back in his own half before setting off on one last attack. The ball is sprayed to the right and Walcott shows off his speed taking on and beating the defender. Walcott charges right into the box and when he gets right to the by-line he is just able to lift a cross into the middle of the penalty area. Adam and his star keeper can only watch on as the ball sails over to an unmarked Sanchez who calmly heads the ball into the net.

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL,” Josh screams as he has just snatched a late injury time equalizer.

Adam can’t help but laugh as Josh leaps out of his seat in delight at scoring such a late equalizer. Josh doesn’t celebrate this much when he scores a real life goal Adam thinks to himself. The game restarts and Josh is celebrating but Adam can’t take advantage as the final whistle goes just seconds after he restarts.

“Crap well done man,” Adam says as Josh finally sits down, “It would have been tough on you to lose that.”

“Thanks yeah that was really intense,” Josh says unable to wipe the grin off his face, “That was defo a better contest than our first match.”

Adam nods his head as he lifts his hips up and Josh watches on in surprise. He was so excited at scoring the late goal he had completely forgotten he is playing strip FIFA. Adam eases his shorts down exposing his plain black boxer shorts so he is left sitting in from to Josh in just his underwear and socks.

“So what do we do now?” Adam ask as the replays finish and the menu screen pops up again.

“I dunno can we finish a strip game as a draw?” Josh wonders aloud.

“A penalty shootout is an option,” Adam offers but Josh shakes his head.

“Come on man with your keeper I’d lose easily,” Josh replies, “How about a winner takes all golden goal?”

“Naw I did that last time and it didn’t work out to well for me,” An underwear clad Adam says with a sly grin.

“Fine then we keep to the same strip FIFA rules in extra time then if we go to pens its loser takes everything off,” Josh says quickly before he loses his nerve and just takes a draw.

“Deal,” Adam says delighted he will get another chance to discover the secret behind Josh’s grooming habits.

Josh clicks the extra time option on the screen subjecting both men to another 30 in game minutes of gameplay. Extra however starts to play out just like the normal match with scrappy bits of play in a mostly midfield struggle. Both Adam and Josh trade tame shots from outside the box before Josh’s Arsenal team again starts to take control. Josh is pressing hard and he is able to win the ball from Chelsea in his half and then launch a quick counter attack. Three passes up the field brings Josh up to the edge of the area where the ball falls to Welbeck. The striker turns his defender and unleashes a low shot that curls past Courtois into the bottom left hand corner of the goal.

“YESSSSSS WHAT A GOAL,” Josh screams in delight as Welbeck takes off in celebration.

Adam groans softly, this is so much harder than the last game and he is starting to regret going easy on his friend.

“Get them off,” Josh says turning round to face Adam and pointing at his boxers, “You lost fair and square this time now strip.”

“Ok,” Adam says unable to hide his grin as he lifts his foot up and starts to remove his sock.

“Bollocks I forgot about those,” Josh spits in annoyance, “I really thought I had won then.”

“Tough luck mate but hey still plenty of time for a comeback,” Adam says enjoying the disappointment on Josh’s face.

Adam does feel a little weird now sitting just in his underwear playing a game with his mate. He didn’t feel this last time as he still had most of his clothes on when he offered Josh to play a next goal strips naked forfeit. The feeling is very weird and Adam wonders why Josh never mentioned how uncomfortable it feels sitting around in just your boxers while another guy is in the room. Adam knows he has to try and get over it if he wants to stay in this game and not have to strip and reveal a dirty secret about himself. Chelsea try and shoot right from the kick off but the ball flies high and wide.

The end of the first half of extra time comes very quickly for Adam who knows a lot is on the line for him now so he makes a few changes to his team. The second half starts and a more focused Adam starts closing down Josh’s team making it very hard for him to move the ball around. All that pressure pays off as Sanchez misplaces a pass on the halfway line allowing the ball to be played up to Remy. The French striker beats the offside trap and is now one on one with the Arsenal keeper. Remy calmly tucks the ball away levelling this match up once again as now its 3 vs 3 and its Josh’s turn to groan in dismay.

“Damn, stupid me overplaying it,” Josh moans as the replay shows his misplaced pass that allowed Adam to score.

Standing up Josh unbuttons his jeans and starts to pull them down revealing his own underwear. His boxers are a bright white and green hooped pattern and Josh kicks off his jeans wondering if he is going to be naked once again.

“This game is so tight we are defo going to penalties,” Adam says sounding excited, “And you know you can’t beat Courtois at pens.”

An underwear clad Josh refuses to rise to the bait and instead just picks up his controller ready to play on. The game has turned into a counter attack fest as a team launches an attack only for it to be stopped and countered by the other team. Minutes tick away from extra time as this football match has turned into a basketball game. It is end to end until finally in the last minute of extra time Chelsea finally get hold of the ball and play a few neat passes around Josh’s penalty area. The ball is slipped into the left hand side of the box where Fabregas runs onto it and unleashes a powerful shot at goal. Josh’s goalie saves the shot but he only pushes it back out to where Remy is waiting.

Standing right on the penalty spot Remy calmly and coolly heads the saved shot back where it came from. Josh’s goalkeeper is stranded on the floor and all the young man can do is watch as the ball bounces into his empty net. Adam doesn’t even raise his arms to celebrate, he is just shocked that he scored a last second winner. Josh sinks backwards on the bed with his hands covering his face and Adam feels bad for his best friend. The final whistle goes and the blonde knows that a late goal is truly the worst way to lose any football match regardless of what’s at stake. 4 vs 3 to Chelsea is the final score but Josh is still lying back on the bed and Adam wonders if Josh is taking his second strip FIFA defeat badly.

“I’m sorry man,” The blonde says slowly, “I honestly thought I’d at least take you to pens.”

“I fucking hate you man, I hate you so much,” Josh moans shaking his head in despair.

Adam can’t tell if his friend is joking with him or if he is deadly serious. Unsure of what to do Adam just sits there until Josh gets to his feet. Taking a deep breath Josh slides his thumbs into the waistband of his boxers preparing to expose himself in front of his mate for a second time. Josh pulls his boxers down once more exposing his cock and his completely shaved pubes. This time Josh is blushing, he didn’t think he would have to strip again and the adrenaline he got from stripping last time is less this time round. He kicks his underwear off then sits his naked ass down onto his friend’s bed before looking back up at Adam.

“I am really sorry man,” Adam apologizes feeling more embarrassed than Josh is.

“No worries man I know you would have beaten me on pens its fine well I don’t like showing you my cock but if I keep being shit at FIFA this will happen,” Josh jokes.

Adam is pleased his friend is taking it so well but still he is almost afraid to carry on talking. He was fully expecting Josh to break down and maybe throw a punch at him and never want to play a strip game again. Josh is just sitting there naked as the final whistle blows to fully confirm that the shaven haired winger has lost his second strip FIFA game.

“Go ahead and ask man let’s get it over with,” Josh says leaning over to put the controller back near the PS4.

Adam can feel himself blushing but he presses on, “Ok then why the shaved look? Is it for Emma?”

Josh leans down to pick up his removed boxers so he can place them on his pile of clothes. He is taking his time because the answer isn’t one he ever wanted to express to anyone let alone his best mate.

“Well she likes it but no she isn’t the reason I did it, I started it before I ever met her,” Josh says quietly feeling colour pumping into his cheeks.

“Well why then?” Adam asks, “I mean I don’t have much hair to lose but I wouldn’t think of completely shaving myself.”

“Well its cause I saw this porno once er with two guys,” Josh says talking to the carpet instead of looking Adam in the face.

Adam wasn’t expecting that, his jaw drops open in shock and he just stares at his naked and now highly embarrassed friend.

“When did you watch a gay porn? I didn’t even know you were…” Adam starts to say but Josh cuts him off.

“I’m not into guys ok relax,” He snaps, “I saw the gay porn cause it was on one of Les’s email links, you remember a few years ago when he kept sending all those porn links via email?”

Adam nods his head, he remembers their team’s left back going through a phase where he thought it was funny to send disgusting kinky porn videos to everyone’s email. It got most of the squad into trouble in one way or another as being caught with hardcore porn in your email is a tough one to explain. Eventually they ganged up on Les and threatened the small left back to stop it or they would forcefully strip him and take pictures of it. They would then make sure everyone that knew him would get to see his naked pictures so of course Les stopped sending them porn filled junk mail.

“So were you actually stupid enough to click on one of those links?” Adam says and Josh nods in response.

“I wasn’t curious or anything I just clicked on some of them and one was these two guys fucking,” The winger says now turning such a bright shade of red it’s a wonder he isn’t glowing like a lightbulb.

“I’m still confused,” Adam states, “Why did watching two guys make you think about shaving yourself?”

“Well when they were sucking each other off,” Josh starts but Adam interrupts.

“You watched the whole movie? Even though it was a gay porno?” The blonde says in shock.

“Yes,” A blushing Josh replies, “I wasn’t jacking off or anything it’s just that they were shaved smooth and I’d never seen a guy you know without any body hair.”

“Smooth?” Adam repeats trying to understand the barrage of information that has been thrown at him.

He could have sworn he knew everything about Josh, they are practically brothers but it appears there is a side to his best friend that he knew absolutely nothing about.

“Yes smooth no pubes, no chest hair nothing,” Josh says wondering if this could get any more embarrassing.

“So you saw a gay porno and then decided to go all hairless just like that?” Adam asks.

“No not right away but it stuck in my mind you know then last year after he had that 6 nil hammering away from home you remember?” Josh says and Adam nods his head.

“Well I came home and was in the shower just trying to get over it you know and there was a razor and well that image of those shaved guys kept coming into my head so I took the plunge,” Josh says finally lifting his head up so he is talking to Adam and not to his bedroom floor.

“I shaved it all off and honestly it felt good like really good and so I just kept it up then when Emma saw it she liked it and I’ve stuck to it,” Josh finishes hoping he can get redressed now.

“Wow,” Is all Adam can muster as a response.

“Yeah big wow now do you mind if I get dressed again,” Josh says feeling very uncomfortable.

Having to tell Adam the story was bad enough for Josh but doing it naked made it worse. That adrenaline of being naked is pumping so fast around his body that Josh is almost shaking in his seat. He is deeply embarrassed but a small part of him is excited by it all. Josh can’t really explain the feeling to himself, the closest thing he can think of that feels like this is when a crowd is cheering for him on the football field. The feeling scares Josh, it’s like he enjoys this embarrassment like all the blushing and the stripping makes him feel more alive. It’s also screwing with his head making him imagine being in this state on a football field with thousands of people watching.

“Yeah man you can get dressed,” Adam says quietly snapping Josh’s daydream.

Quickly Josh tugs his boxers on and then looks over at Adam who is still in a state of shock.

“You ok man?” Josh asks a little worried that he might have creeped out his best friend.

“Yeah I’m fine it’s just I honestly thought I knew everything about you shit I thought I knew you better than Emma,” Adam admits.

“Guess there is more to you than I ever knew,” Adam says getting to his feet and walking over to Josh.

Josh doesn’t know what to expect as his underwear clad friend pulls him to his feet then gives him a hug.

“Thanks for sharing though I honestly didn’t think you could tell me something that personal,” Adam says with his arms around his best friend.

“No worries,” Josh says returning the hug grateful that Adam doesn’t think he is a weird for watching gay porn then using it for shaving tips.

Adam lets go of the hug then looks at the clock, “Shit Karen will be home soon we better get dressed you know unless you want her to admire your smooth skin,” He teases.

“Dick,” Josh replies playfully slapping his friend’s bare chest, “If I didn’t have a girlfriend I totally would.”

“And again you made it weird,” Adam says pulling his vest top back over his head, “Hey we doing this again same time next week?”

Josh laughs, “No way dude this is the last one, I’ve been naked twice no way I can take losing three in a row.”

“Really?” Adam says with a hint of surprise, “I thought you were really close to beating me this time.

Shaking his head Josh says, “No I wasn’t you were going easy on me I know it look I enjoy the stakes and the game sure it’s just not as fun when you lose all the time.”

Adam nods in response he understands that but he has enjoyed the last two games and didn’t think Josh would back out like this. Josh himself isn’t too sure but he feels like it would be suspicious of him to keep playing a strip game that he had no chance of winning. Both men sit now fully clothed but in silence before Adam gets up to turn off his PS4 wondering if maybe this is the end of their strip FIFA playing days.
