Switching identities has its ups and downs. Someone gets backed into a corner. I wonder who?

"How does Dakota deal with all this attention? Oh my gosh! Everywhere I go guys are saying hi or drooling. They never did this to me, it had to have been my braces. I mean I know Dakota is more outgoing but was I that unnoticeable before now?"
Sable McKellen walked the school's hallways during lunch expressing as much confidence as she could muster. After what she had done in Roger Dundee's Science class she was both embarrassed and excited at the same time. This was fun being her sister but the question remained, how much more could she endure without others figuring their scheme out? Surely, someone suspected. Were people that naive to overlook certain characteristics? Her moments of shyness although becoming more resilient were still a dead giveaway if someone knew them well enough. Same body, same walk, voices identical except when she got too tense. Yet, she was indeed mastering her sister's persona, she Sable's. It would just be a matter of time before someone connected the dots and called them out.
"I wonder if it's because Dakota and Angus Furlong are getting closer? I mean the student body always reacts to anyone who rises up as part of the jocks. That could have been me if Corey Samson hadn't been such a jerk. Why did Tawny tell me he liked me when he obviously didn't? Oh well! I like Travis...he's adorable." For the most part. It was just his tarnished reputation that kept her at arms length with people. They liked Sable just fine but had that willies thing going on seeing them together and holding hands.
"Hey there Miss Zipper Whipper." Speaking of Tawny, "You're almost getting as outrageous as the cheerleaders. You should work on your sister more, Sable needs to break out of your shadow."
"Hi Tawny." She smiled back then thought, "Gosh! Not even Tawny knows I'm Sable." From brief thought to vocals she continued with, "I'm trying to get her to come out, she's getting there more each day."
"I absolutely love those jeans. I need to invest in a weeks worth of pairs. So...you let Dundee see your ass in his class. Bold move Babe. Dundee is dreamy!"
"I know right? It's crazy but I think he and Piper are getting close. Oh well! That was fun. Boys were gawking up a storm."
"Of course they were. They know one sexy bitch when they see one, and babe? Mmmm! Mmmm! Where is Sable anyway? She's Mmmm! Mmmm! too."
"She got her braces out today. Dad brought her to school, but she decided she wanted to go back home. Subconsciously overwhelmed I think."
"Jitters? Poor thing. I hope she cheerleads with us tonight. I think once she builds her confidence she can rule this school."
"Rule?"
"Yep! Right along side you Hotstuf. The Dynamic Duo!"
"That's hilarious. I'm sure she will give it her best shot. I won't let her chicken out."
"You coming to the game?"
"Yep! I'm going to sit with Piper's nephew Mace." That was Dakota's plan anyway.
"You trying to get his teeth knocked out?" Tawny stopped her by gripping the back of her shirt, the unzipped front fanning wider for a more enticing view of her breasts. Yelping as she was tugged to a halt Sable aka Dakota dropped her jaw at boys thriving on a good shot at her tits.
"What do you mean?"
"Come on Dakota, you know guys get jealous easy. Angus might think you and Mace have something going on."
"We don't."
"You did kiss the guy yesterday."
"That was just to freak Mace out. He knows we're just friends." She prayed Dakota had that part relayed to Angus.
"Is he a good kisser?" She had to snuggle up to Sable's arm with a curious inquiry.
"Aren't you seeing Principal Manley's son Jesse?"
"Well, yeah! But, you know..." She wiggles her brow. "Girls will be girls."
"And, you worry about Angus being uptight over Mace. What would Jesse think if he knew you had eyes on Mace?"
"He'd think, can I watch?" She giggled.
"He's into that kind of thing?"
"Just like his dad."
"Principal Manley likes to...yeesh!" No way! Not nice Mister Manley!
"Keep that to yourself."
"I will." She didn't believe her anyway, "You going outside for lunch?"
"Yep! Meeting my girls for some daylight and to talk about routines and boys from Marquette tonight. I heard rumor that Counsellor Cherry is having a picnic outdoors so we're gonna go pick her brain about tonight. You gonna go sit with Andi and Sandy like you normally do?"
"You keeping tabs on me Tawny?"
"A girl can...look." She winked and explored Sable's opened cleavage.
"Quit that."
"Holding out for Robin?" She stuck her tongue out at Dakota then wagged it. What did that mean? The real Dakota had not told Sable about the tag team of Robin and Angus in kissing her at the same time.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Sable winced.
"Oh come on...I heard you liked it when Robin and Angus both kissed you at the same time."
"WHAT????" Sable dropped her jaw then regained her composure to protect her identity from being in question, passing it off as a flirty as if, "Who told you that? Not mwah!"
"Robin." Tawny giggled, "I think that girl has a crush on you."
"No she doesn't. She likes Angus."
"Bystander Dakota." Tawny winked, "She's bi girlfriend. We all are."
"I guess that explains that." Sable swallowed dryly, "I have to get something from my locker, maybe I'll see you outside."
"Later, Hottie!" Tawny wiggled away, eyes torn between she and Dakota, boys and girls both were mixed in their fantasies. Cheerleader sexy Tawny, and Quarterback's main squeeze. So they considered Dakota that is. Both were eye candy and they were sweet on beauty. Sugar highs were always welcomed.
Finding Dakota's locker Sable easily opened it reciting, "ATE UP...8-21-16! I wish my combo was that easy to remember. At least I didn't try my combination on Dakota's and look stupid if it didn't unlock." Tugging the door open something fluttered down to the floor which made her jump back, damn nerves. "The neat freak must be getting sloppy. Clutter in her locker? No way!" Bending over to pick the folded paper up she opened it and looked it over to be nosey, in doing so fifty little glittery red hearts spilled out on the tile at her feet.
"Whoa! Is this...a love note from Angus?" On it the paper in personal handwriting was the message, "Don't turn around or the magic is gone...Angus! P.S. those hearts were circling my head until I caught them for you." Jaw dropping at the sweetness of it Sable whimpered, "This is almost as cute as Travis stealing one of his mom's red roses from her boyfriend to give me. I better pick these up." In reaction she knelt down on all fours to start gathering the scattered hearts.
While on her hands and knees Angus Furlong snuck up behind her and silently dropped to his own knees. Sensing him Sable froze in unprepared thought, "I just fell for a trap. The note said don't turn around. Do I ruin this for Dakota? I mean...he doesn't know I'm not...gosh!" She recalled how funny and sincere Angus was in Mavis Hale's Economics class as Sable, talking about how much he adored Dakota. Sable just didn't have the heart...hearts, to tell him to stop and reveal herself as Sable. Deep down she wanted to see what Dakota's world was like. Without looking back Sable lifted a single heart on her fingertip and showed it to Angus, for all she knew it could have been anyone. "Found your heart." Too bad she chose her fuck you finger to share.
"Found your heart shaped ass."
Angus revealed his soft tone, his hands on her hips first before gently rubbing her bottom through her jeans. Closing her eyes to enjoy the moment Sable suddenly envisioned her Father sneaking up on her at home, nude and mistaking her for Dakota. A wetness between her thighs became noticeable. Ordinarily panic and embarrassment would have dominated her but protecting her sister's image seemed like the right thing to do. That, and a soft spot for Angus effecting her soul led Sable to keep her composure. This might never ever happen again so she wanted the experience of his touch all to herself.
"Are you alone?"
