Chapter 2
(Andrew)
I woke up from my nap after a long night and a morning filled with drama. I turned on the only lamp in the room, its one mom uses when she checks in on Dee. Andi is still sleeping at least I think she is, it's hard to tell sometimes. Her eyelids are closed but with no sight they aren't always open when she is awake. That and she can play possum better than anyone.
I moved from the bed and dressed then turned out the lamp. Opening the door, the light from the hall filled the opening to her room. I was looking back on my sister one more time. I closed the door knowing she would be safe from the world around her again. I leaned back against the door knowing the road ahead would be filled with potholes but I assured mom and dad I was up to the task.
I started having feelings for my youngest sister for as long as I can remember. Bert and Ernie saw life through rose colored glasses, just like my dad. Every situation is just a setup for the next one-liner or story. Don't get me wrong they have their serious sides as well. Bert is an excellent business man. Ernie would beat any man to an inch of life to protect anyone of us, especially Andi, or die trying. But they would both pick up the poor bastard that tried and offer him a drink. My dad would buy.
Ashyln is a whole other story.
I went out and looked at my bike strapped in the back of the old truck I bought. Setting up the ramps I coasted the bike back onto the pavement. It felt good between my legs. I wanted to fire it up and take it for a quick ride. I looked at the house and decided better of it.
I had just finished unloading my stuff when Andi walked out from her room. It was rude of me I know, but I needed to watch her one last time without her knowledge. She moved slow and deliberately in the direction of the kitchen. I thought back to when she was sixteen and started to become the woman she is. At eighteen I was madly in love with her.
When she asked me to take her to her prom I was naturally happy to do so. When she let me kiss her goodnight it was like a dream come true. I think we both knew that night how we truly felt about each other. Even after four years of college and dating numerous women I knew Andi was still the one for me. The problem was she was not only my sister she is my blind sister.
"It's rude to stare." Dee said as she came out of the kitchen with a juice box.
"It would be rude if I didn't" I teased her.
I was busted and she seemed happy with my reply. I quickly moved to her and guided her to the sofa. She let me stroke my hand through her hair before I kissed her lightly on the lips. I tasted the fruity drink she had been sipping on. Andi cooed faintly when my lips separated from hers. I pulled her back into a firm kiss this time.
"Drew can we talk?" Dee whispered.
Her head fell and settled on my shoulder. This was her way. Loud noises unsettle her so she always speaks softly. Maybe it's so she can hear the response she can't see. She leans her head on my shoulder to feel my reactions to her pointed questions.
"Must we?" I teased.
Leaning back and letting her settle against my chest. Her small breasts pressed against me, her legs found a comfortable position.
"Why did you come back?" Andi asked.
"I told you I would." I replied rubbing her back.
"But why now?"
This was a bit more complicated. Especially with what had been building up around here recently.
"The project finished sooner than I expected." I lied.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Dee asked referencing our phone calls and e-mails.
"Mom asked me not to." I hesitated to reply. "Just in case something went wrong."
"Like last time?" Andi suggested.
I chose not to respond. She waited for me to reply.
"Do you love her?" Andi asked bluntly.
"Dee she is my sister of course I love her." I replied. I knew I screwed up the moment I said it.
"Drew I'm you're sister too."
"That's not the same!" I protested.
"Have you fucked her?" Andi asked bluntly. Getting emotional she pressed her head harder on my shoulder.
"NO!" I replied adamantly.
"But you have fucked women!" Andi raised up facing me.
"That's not fair!" I argued. "I am not going to talk about my sex life!"
"Tell me what Ashlyn did to you!" Andi yelled.
"It was nothing!"
"It was enough for you to leave me!" Andi refuted. "Did you make her cum like you did for me earlier?"
"Andi I did that with you because I love you." I defended my actions not sure why I needed to.
"But you came home to fuck her! The project ended? Bullshit!" Andi screamed. "Don't lie to me again, I am blind not stupid! You love Ashlyn not me!"
"Well you re blind in one way more than the other!" I yelled back. "I do love you and you know it!"
Andi hit my chest and tried to escape my grasp. I grabbed her and pulled her back and wrapped my arms around her. She fought kicking and screaming. Her hands searched for my eyes to gouge them out. She tried to kick me in the nuts, but I was prepared. Lord help the man that hasn't fought with her before.
"Stop this now!" I begged her. "I am not going to let you win this time!"
"Let me go you bastard!" Dee screamed so loud I thought my ear drums would burst.
We rolled off the couch and onto the floor. She struggled bravely but outweighed her easily. I pinned her to the floor sitting on her stomach and holding her arms spread above her head.
"NO Dee, I will never let you go!" I yelled and then whispered. "I love you!"
"You can't Andrew! You can't love me!" Dee struggled some more.
"Why Dee? Tell me why I can't love you?" I argued. "I'm not letting you go until you tell me!"
"Get off of me you fucking bastard!" Andi started fighting even harder but her strength was waning.
I applied more weight holding her in place. Her arms finally went limp.
"Please tell me Dee. Tell me why I can't love you?" I pleaded. "And don't tell me because you are blind we have been all through that!"
"Never!" She insisted. She turned her face to the side giving up completely.
"If you do I will tell you what she did." I offered.
Andi turned to face me. Her body found new life.
"You will? Promise?"
"If you promise to tell me?"
"I promise." She whispered.
"Kiss on it!" I insisted.
Not waiting for her to answer I pressed my lips to hers. She tried to move her arms. I let them go sensing she no longer wanted to fight. She wrapped her arms around me holding me into the kiss even longer. This kiss maybe had more meaning than any other.
I rolled her over so she could be on top. I knew she would feel in control now.
"Tell me." She insisted.
