The phone rang persistently, awakening Shaunny from her deep slumber. She opened her eyes to the blue illuminated screen of her digital alarm clock. The time was 8.18pm. Grief, she had slept the whole afternoon away! She scrambled up from bed and went looking for the cordless phone located somewhere underneath some clothes strewned on the floor. She flung some clothes and magazines aside until she finally found the cordless phone. "Hello?" she lazily answered. "Hey sweetie. How's the first day of school?" came her mother's voice from the other end of the line.
"Hey, mom! School's fine. A little hectic but everything's ok," Shaunny replied in a sleepy voice. Her eyes still heavy lidded from sleep.
"How's Shane settling in?"
The instant her mother mentioned Shane, Shaunny's eyes snapped open wide.
Shane!
Her thoughts went back to that eventful afternoon. She had gone into Shane's room after coming home from school in search for the porn magazine she had seen the week before. No one was home and she thought she'd 'entertain' herself. But her search was interrupted as she heard someone coming back She hadn't had enough time to get out of his room without being seen so she had secretly hid herself in his walk-in closet. Due to unknown reasons, even to herself, she had left the door slightly ajar. And to her surprise Nina had came waltzing into the room, settling herself comfortable on Shane's bed and had incredulously started masturbating. When Shane came home from school, he too was quite surprised to find Nina fingering herself on his bed. Unbeknown to them that Shaunny was watching them from the tiny gap from Shane's closet. One thing let to another and before they knew it they were fucking each other's brains out. Shaunny was so aroused by the scene that she masturbated to satisfy her own persisting lust for her twin brother. She had fallen asleep right after her self-induced orgasmic experience, only to be awakened when Nina and Shane left the room. She quickly got up and snuck back into her own room where she had fallen asleep again in the comfort of her own bed.
"Shaunny, you there?"
"Yeah, mom. I'm here".
"So how'd Shane settle in the first day of school?" her mother asked eagerly.
"Quite well I suppose. I'm only sharing English Lit and lunch with him though," Shaunny replied, nervously toying with a lock of her long blonde hair. She felt uneasy as paranoia lurked in the corners of her mind. She felt she had gone and done something taboo and she had to lie to her mother about it. Perhaps her mother knew what happened! No, that would be impossibleβ¦
"Nina's staying over right?"
Shaunny could only muster an "Uh-huh". She was still worried that her mother sensed that something was going on.
"Well I'm glad everything's going alright over there. It seems that things are taking much longer than we have expected. Mr. Masterson is doing his best to get things settled as quickly as possible. But you know how legal matters are; it's all red tape and beauracratic procedures! I still don't know when I'll be back but I'll keep you informed. So can you please run the household a little longer for me, sweetie?"
"Yes, mom. I'll hold up. You take care of yourself and don't rush. It's been fourteen years since you've actually taken a vacation," Shaunny laughed.
"I knowβ¦. But I know everything's fine because you're in charge. You've always been my perfect little angel," her mother added thoughtfully.
Again, Shaunny felt a pang of guilt.
If only you knew mom
. Shaunny thought silently.
"Well, I've got to run now. Mr. Masterson needs me down in his office to sign some papers again. So take care and tell Shane that I miss him. Oh, and tell Nina thanks for staying over too!" her mother continued cheerfully.
'I will. Take care. I love you, mom".
"Love you too, my little angel," her mother said lovingly before ending the call.
Shaunny didn't feel quite angelic at the moment. In fact, she hasn't felt anything close to angelic ever since Shane stepped into their lives.

Shaunny took a long shower while trying to sort out the day's events. She was still undeniably sexually attracted to her twin brother. What just happened that afternoon only further intensified her lust and desire. She was incredibly jealous of Nina but there was nothing she could do to amend the situation. No one was to know of her obsession with Shane. No one.
Shaunny went downstairs after her shower in search for Shane and Nina but they weren't anywhere in sight. She was famished and she didn't want to have dinner alone.
Damn them!
They'd just had to leave her alone! They were probably off fucking somewhere! She sat down on the living room couch feeling abandoned and alone. She was tempted to call Bruce but she didn't feel like making small talk and socialising with a bunch of superficial cheerleaders and jocks that night. It was nights like this she'd chilled with Nina and gossip the night away. Now she had no one to confide in and someone to talk to. Her thoughts nowadays were sexual and they're always focused on Shane. Twenty four-seven. That's the only thing she could think about,
Shane
. Her twin brother. She sat there for a good fifteen minutes before uncontrollable sobs wrecked her body. She was totally alone.

Shane walked silently along the white stretch of sandy beach. The stars were twinkling merrily in the midnight sky but he didn't share their merriment. He inhaled deeply. The salt sea air was cool and rejuvenating. He looked out to the horizon that blended into the night's abyss. He'd just had sex with Nina.
Nina
. Now she was a vixen. With exotic Chinese good looks and a killer body, she had boldly masturbated in his bed while waiting for him to come back from school. It was a pleasant enough surprise but it lacked something. It wasn't as though the sex wasn't great. Oh, the sex was good enough, above average he'd say. Nina was obviously satisfied with what he had to offer and had greedily wanted more. She even took the liberty to offer a standing invitation to her bed whenever he pleased. But something was missing.
"Oh, well!"
He thought, "I can't have everything now, can't I?". With a grunt he made his way back to the house. It's a good twenty minutes walk from the beach to the McIntyre residence but he didn't care. There was nothing better to do at home anyway. Nothing at allβ¦.

The doorbell rang repeatedly, waking Shaunny up with jolt. Goodness, she had sobbed herself to sleep. Her eyes felt puffy and sore and there was a sour taste in her mouth.
