My brother skipped breakfast the next morning. I hadn't been able to sleep and had to force my normal, chipper if slightly hung-over self. I told my parents he'd gotten a little too drunk because he was upset about breaking up with his girlfriend.
When he still didn't show, I grabbed some water and ibuprofen. We watched out for each other; it would be strange for me to avoid him. And I needed to know if he remembered.
I knocked softly and slowly pushed his door open, half-hoping he was still asleep.
He wasn't. He was sitting on his bed, rubbing his temples, his back to the door. I don't think he heard my knock. His hair was wet; he'd probably showered. He was only wearing his boxers. I paused.
I've seen him naked before, sure, but it felt like I was looking at him for the first time. His body was... my cheeks slowly heated while my eyes ran over his broad shoulders, the muscled contours of his back, the V dipping into his underwear. I knew my brother was hot, but... wow.
The sheets were a bundled mess like he had torn them off. I stood in the doorway, my heart pounding. Had he noticed the wet spot I must've left behind? I almost turned and ran.
He stood, snapping me out of my trance. I knocked louder, and he finally saw me. I shoved the water and pills at him like a shield, fixing my eyes on his face.
"I-Ibuprofen?" I cleared my throat. "You have to have a major headache after that actual fire you drank last night."
He frowned at me silently. I raised my eyebrows. "Hello? Did you turn into a zombie?"
"Um. Thanks," he mumbled, stepping closer to take the glass and bottle. He tossed back a couple of pills.
"Yep. You gonna live?" I tried to sound normal, teasing.
He shrugged, giving me an odd look, glancing at my lips, lower. "Liz, I... did I... hurt you or anything last night?"
Oh, shit.
"What? Of course not. Why would you think that?" My voice was a little too high.
He looked uncertain. I had to say something, change the subject, anything. My mind was a huge blank slate.
"Are you sure? If I did... something, anything... please tell me. I don't remember much, but I keep seeing your face, uh, in my bed, and..." His cheeks turned red.
I laughed a little. "Oh, yeah, I was drunk, so I fell asleep in your room. Oh my God, did you have a horny dream about me? Eww, Kev."
He blushed harder. "No. Nevermind. Forget I said anything."
If he'd said all this, and nothing had actually happened, I'd probably tease him about it for a whole week. As it was, I was all too happy to drop the subject.
"You coming down soon? Mom and dad want us to help with dinner."
"Yeah. Yeah, sure. Thanks, Liz."
I bolted as sedately as possible.
The rest of the day was even more awkward, at least for me. He kept giving me these strange looks, glancing away quickly whenever I caught him. Did he remember more than he was saying? He clearly suspected something. I'd never seen him that drunk before; I had no idea how much he could remember.
His looks brought back flashes--the feel of his skin, the weight of his body, his mouth sucking my lip. I almost touched my lips with that memory, wondering if they looked swollen.
Crazy thing is... I had liked it. I know that's so wrong in so many ways. Well, mostly the one screamingly disgusting way. But his cock--my brother's cock, and I'm horrified just thinking that--had made me come. Twice. Is it so bad to want that again?
It didn't matter. It wasn't going to happen again.
By the time we finished dinner, things seemed back to normal. We said good night and went to our own beds like normal people.
I wished I'd brought my vibrator.
He left early the next morning. We hugged at the door. When his arms wrapped around me, he inhaled sharply and stiffened for a few seconds. He abruptly let go of me and walked to his car, not looking back.
I could only give my parents a baffled shrug. "Girlfriend problems, I guess." What else could it be?
--
Three months later.
My phone buzzed. My mother. It was the end of spring quarter, and I was visiting them in a few days for the break.
"Honey, how are you? What's new?"
"Hey, mom. Nothin'. I'm so glad it's spring break soon. Finals are exhausting."
"Aww, I'm sure you're doing great. I'm so sorry about this--we won't be home for your break, honey. You know how much we need to travel for your dad's company."
"Oh, ok." That kinda sucked; I didn't have any other plans. "Um, can I still stay at the house?"
"Of course. In fact, can we ask a favor? You know how Kevin has back pains? They've gotten worse recently, and the doctor recommended an extended rest, physical therapy, and a prescription."
I laughed. Kev hated drugs--pharmaceuticals anyways. "Wait, wait--did he make them give him weed?"
My mom sounded amused too. "Yes. Anyway, we volunteered to take care of him while he's, well, high for a couple of weeks. Do you mind taking over?"
I took a deep breath but didn't hesitate for too long. Normal-me would of course take care of my brother. "Yeah, no problem. I'm definitely making a video of him, though."
"Be nice, honey; he's in pain. We'll see you later!"
I grabbed some birth control pills. Just in case.
--
My parents dashed out of the house almost as soon as I arrived. They left the doctor's notes and instructions.
"Hi, Lizzy." Kev smiled sleepily from the couch.
I grimaced. The last time he'd called me that, I was ten years old and I punched him in the stomach. But that vapid look on his face was pretty pathetic.
"Hey, Kev. How you feelin'?"
He turned slowly back to the TV. "...Good."
Well, this should be easy.
The first day passed quickly. Finals really had been exhausting. I barely stayed awake while he mostly stared at the screen. I napped when the physical therapist stopped by for an hour.
Later, we ate the dinner my parents had left, then he got into bed without any incidents. He seemed to fall asleep right away.
I flopped into my own bed. This would be fine. He didn't remember and he would be out of it most of the time. I ignored my insane little twinge of disappointment.
--
"Mmm, Liz, you smell so good."
"... Huh? Kev? What are you doing?" I rubbed my eyes. I was starting to drift off when I heard his murmuring.
He inhaled deeply next to my ear. I almost jumped. "Your hair," he mumbled. "I remembered how your hair smelled and I really wanted... Can I lie here? This is nice." The bed dipped behind me.
My heart skipped a beat. He remembered...? Maybe he just meant my shampoo was familiar. I'd used it for years.
Then his warm skin touched my back. I gasped quietly, my whole body suddenly tingling. At least he was still wearing boxers.
I should leave and let him sleep here. That would be the smart thing to do. His arm wrapped around my waist. My body purred.
