Not Your Ordinary Friday Night

Teaser/Chapter 1

"Come on you guys, it's time for Friday Night Poker." Carlos called. Friday Night Poker was a tradition among the crew. There really wasn't much to do in space so they resorted to gambling.

"Coming!" Cassie called from the next room a split second before she came bounding in. Andros, Ashley and T.J were already seated.

Zhane was the last to swagger in, "I propose a change in plan," at that everyone looked up, "how 'bout we play strip poker?" The table broke into peals of laughter, except Andros and Zhane who just stared each other in the eye. "Come on don't you guys ever get tired of the same old game of Texas Hold 'Em?" Zhane asked, his eyes never leaving Andros'.

"Only occasionally." Andros answered quietly.

"Good then why don't you try it my way?"

"Because I suck and don't want to end up losing all my clothes."

At Andros' statement Zhane felt his body jump to attention. Andros without clothes was not a repellent image. Not at all, Zhane mused while trying to make his thoughts as plutonic as possible. He hoped that Andros hadn't glimpsed the heat in his eyes, "I'm sure you're not that bad."

"I'm usually the first one out."

"Well yeah but," Zhane paused, "never mind, I really didn't think that one out." The room had quieted and the rest of the crew was listening to their exchange.

"Come on Zhane you can be more convincing than that."

"Okay Sweetheart, how about this point: You're a good looking guy, if you just lost a few key pieces of clothing then the rest of us would be so distracted that we'd screw up and you'd win."

Andros was going to say something but Ashley cut him off, "He's probably right you know."

"Thanks I feel s-o much better now." Andros said, sarcasm dripping from his voice.

"No problem." Ashley chirped, ignoring the tone of his voice.

"Okay 'Dros how about this; you can't lose your boxers, or for the ladies the bare minimums. Does that work for everyone?"

Well, when it gets to the point where I'm supposed to take off my shirt I'll just make up some lame excuse to leave, simple as that. Andros nodded reluctantly and everybody else followed his gesture. "Good " Zhane exclaimed and began to deal out cards.

A/N: All right so that was basically my teaser, whether or not I get review doesn't really influence if I update but they're appreciated. Please and thank-you.
