I knew it was risky, but I had to know. I didn't know why I needed to know so much but the desire had been growing in me for days and I just wanted it over with. So that's why I snuck into my sister's bedroom that night. It was going to be quick, I'd grab her underpants, sniff them, put them back and go. Curiosity solved. Talk about the best laid plans of mice and men.
You're probably wondering just what I'm rambling about; I should go back to the beginning. I'd finished my first year of university and to celebrate I'd gone to stay with my older sister Drew who lived up the coast from the city.
Now, Drew and I had always been close but never too close. That said, she was a beautiful woman and I had been a lonely teenage boy. I'd certainly fantasised about being with her a few times but I knew that that was all it would ever be and that was fine with me. My whole sex life was a fantasy even by the end of that year at uni. I'd tried to pick up, I'd even managed to go on a few dates but nothing ever happened.
So when I found myself alone with Drew for all that time, my thoughts started to wander again and I remembered my teenage fantasies. And she was different too. At home she'd been quiet and reserved like me. Now she was lively and happy. Her daggy clothes in drab colours were gone and she was wearing bright colours and clothes that closely fitted her body, showing off her perky breasts and oh so cuppable backside. And she'd cut her black hair back short, revealing her pale neck and the new dragon tattoo she had on it.
My real problem began one day on the beach. I never really liked going to the beach but she insisted it would be fun. I took a book and tried hard not to observe her too closely in her skimpy bikini. She was teasing me about wasting my life in dusty old books and I was determinedly ignoring her, so she snatched it away from me. I asked her to give it back and she taunted me. "You'll have to come and get it," she waved the book around in the air.
She was smiling and I had to accept I was being an ass so I decided to join in and started chasing her around the beach. After constantly being thwarted in my attempts to grab the book I changed my tactic and went for her instead. I wrapped an arm around her waist as she tried to dodge past and my foot slipped in the sand as we went.
We landed laughing on the ground but my head was on her thigh. I was face to face with my sister's crotch. I could see the faint bulge of her manicured pubes pressing against the fabric. And there was a whiff of something I'd never smelt before. It was lost in the ocean breeze and she quickly wriggled back off but it had been there.
I shook my head and went back to the game but later that moment came back to me. The smell was enticing and I had to know if it really was her sex. I knew I shouldn't be thinking about my sister's crotch but I didn't care. It was a personal fantasy I wasn't going to act on so who could get hurt?
Problem was, that sniff wasn't enough. I had to know. I spent far too much of my time devising ways to get another whiff. In my head I'd be forward and tell her and end up burying my head in her crotch; but in reality I figured I'd sneak a sniff of her panties.
I raided the laundry basket while she was asleep one night but the smell was faint at best. I needed fresh access. And I knew how to get it.
Every night Drew would take her clothes off in her bedroom, wrap herself in a towel, then head to the shower. It frustrated me no end as she always walked passed me on the couch to get there and the towel didn't quite cover as much as she thought it did. But it made my goal so easy β wait for her to walk past one night, slip into her room and sniff the panties she'd just taken off.
Which is where I came in. Like I said I knew it was risky, but I'd been going nuts thinking about it and it didn't seem like that big a deal really. Only, when I held up the lacy briefs to my nose I couldn't just throw them back down. The smell was still not all that strong, but it was alluring. More than that though, I knew that what was in my hand had only moments before been pressed up against Drew's private most parts and it was so intoxicating.
And that's why I was standing in a semi-trance in the middle of Drew's room when she walked in, her underpants held in both hands against my face. For the longest time we just stared at each other in shock. Then I dropped the precious fabric and began stammering in an attempt to explain what really didn't need explaining.
"You filthy pervert," she yelled. "How long have you been sniffing my underpants?"
