Hank was feeling pretty good about things. The job interview went well. It seemed that all it was going to take was a formal vote by the board and the job was his. They said he know in about two weeks. If he got the job then it would clear the way for Amy and him. Amy could keep her job and the house. Carrie wouldn't have to change schools. The new job would mean a pay cut and not be the same as working in DC, but Hank was willing to make the change.
Jesse stood in the kitchen sipping her wine, still in her bikini. She really needed to change but she was in no hurry. She came to visit Amy upset and confused about her feelings. She was angry at Amy but it wasn't really Amy. It was her and her life. Now she realized that and in some way it made her feel better.
When Amy and she were growing up they did everything together. Being three years older, Jesse took care of her little sister and protected her. They also shared everything. Being older, Jesse found out about boys before Amy and being the good sister, taught her about them. Amy's first kiss was with Jesse. The two of them skinny-dipped out at the pond and would lie there, naked, sunning themselves. The two sisters watched their bodies change. Jesse was pretty fast and did a lot of experimenting in high school. She told Amy everything that she did. She slept around but was always careful. Jesse even tried it with a woman. Not great but different. She felt that she was responsible for Amy being so careful with the boys.
When their dad blew up, it was Jesse that was there for Amy. Both of them knew that their father was disappointed in her and put a lot of faith in Amy. The fact that he knew that Amy had sex with Hank sent him over the edge. He felt she was ruining her life over Hank. Even now there is the doubt about Carrie and who is her father. No one spoke about it but Jesse wonder if others thought about it. Jesse had a long talk with her mother. She always got the feeling that Mom felt she let Amy down. She never liked Roger but let Amy marry him. Amy never should have married Roger but what real choice did she have. Eloping with Hank wasn't an option. Roger cheated on her so often that it wasn't a secret. He hurt her a couple of times too. Jesse was always there for Amy. Now it seems they're there for each other.
Hank pulled into the driveway. Amy's car was still parked there. Hank didn't know that Amy had taken Jesse's car to pick up the Chinese food. He headed into the house excited about his prospects.
Jesse felt a little sexy, daring in her bikini. She noticed how since Hank was back in her life, Amy was becoming comfortable with her body. All the sex she was having with Hank was creating a more confident woman. It seemed Hank loved her for who she was. Maybe it was time that Dave saw her in a new light. Amy did mention this bikini.
"Damn," Jesse swore. She had knocked over Amy's wine glass she left behind. The wine began to drip on the floor so she bent over to wipe it up.
Hank entered the kitchen and saw the bikini clad ass pointed directly at him. This one seemed a little different than Amy's. "Amy?"
"Hank?" Jesse turned to face him. They stared at each other for a moment.
There she stood in a bikini that was obviously too small for her. Her large breasts were just about popping out. Hank's face said all. Jesse recovered first. "We didn't expect you home so soon. Amy took my car and went for Chinese. You just missed her."
Hank couldn't help but stare. Jesse's breasts were much larger than he thought. She looked as sexy as hell. All he could say was "Ok."
Jesse began to laugh. "Am I making you uncomfortable? No one was supposed to see me in this. I'll go change."
Hank turned red, "No, no. That's alright. You're fine."
"You silly man," Jesse said, kissing him on the cheek. " I better get out of this suit before something does happen. But thank you" Again she laughed as she left. "Hank certainly noticed." She smiled.
She changed quickly and came back. She found Hank on the deck. "Better?"
Hank looked at her and smiled. It made Jesse feel good. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure. Go ahead, I think." Jesse sat down.
"What happened with Amy? Her Dad? Roger?"
Jesse related the whole story the best she could. She explained how her Dad reacted and how things got really bad. He accused Amy of being a slut for doing what she did with him. That she was ruining her life. He told her she was going to marry Roger. And that was that. It was bad.
"How did he know what we did?" Hank asked.
"Amy always figured he saw you two in the barn. She really didn't know."
"The marriage to Roger, how did that go?"
"At first, not too bad. Roger seemed happy. Amy was pregnant so that was a little rough on her. Then Carrie was born and things went downhill. Roger seemed to change. After 2, 3 years Roger was sleeping around and the marriage was falling apart." Jesse explained.
"Did he ever abuse her?"
"I think once or twice. I saw some bruises on her arm but she always had some explanation. It was more mental than physical."
