Essi strolled back to her bed and settled down on its edge. The wooden frame pushed up the flesh of her thighs, and she adjusted her position, shimmying forward and resting on her buttocks instead.
'I'll give you one thing,' her brother began. 'I may've gotten carried away in church...gotten a bit handsy. Not the best place for that kind of behaviour--though there's something to be said, some parallels to be drawn, between what you did last night and--'
'Bad call. Go on.' She strained to keep her voice level.
'Bad call, yes.' He turned around to face her wardrobe and opened the sliding door. Inside were numerous piles of neatly folded clothes. He swiped his eyes left and right as if searching for something. Then, he picked up a pile of light blue jeans. 'However, we can't have you acting out. Bad behaviour needs punishment. The specific circumstances of your faux pas made it easy for me to come up with the first rule: from here on out, you'll only be allowed to wear skirts. No jeans, pants, trousers, nothing with individual legs.'
Essi needed a moment to process that information. She was distracted. She white-knuckled the bed's frame to keep her hands from her crotch--a soothing gesture she'd picked up as a kid. She'd never had to restrain herself in her own room--it didn't sit well with her. Her brunette hair was slightly matted with sweat, and the room must've had an ambient temperature of 35°C. 'Wait,' she finally muttered, 'you're going to forbid me from wearing jeans--?' Her brow was furrowed, and her eyes slightly narrowed.
'Yeah. I thought it was fitting since you misbehaved while I was fighting with your shorts, trying to fiddle past that stupidly tight leg. Don't you think so?'
'I mean, logic-wise, sure, but--'
He grabbed another pile and dropped it onto the floor. That was followed by another--and another. When he spied a stack of stockings, he paused and said, 'You can keep those for the colder seasons. We don't want you getting sick now, do we?'
His back still turned, and his attention devoted utterly to her wardrobe (with several piles of individual-legged pieces remaining), she decided to indulge the urge, turning her hands back into fists and nestling them between her thighs, squeezing. She only realised the arousal still lingering in her loins might've been the main incentive when an uncertain quiver travelled up her spine. She looked down, seeing a wet spot on the thin linen fabric of her light brown shorts. Her eyes widened, and she removed her hands with a jolt--legs still squeezed shut.
'No complaints?' he said. 'Perfect. You're learning.'
'I am complaining! Where'd you get this from? Some fetish magazine, an online BDSM community, maybe?' Because it's working perfectly, she thought. 'This is ludicrous!'
'If you think this is ludicrous already, I'm afraid you won't like the second part of the rule: no underwear.' He said it casually, looking over his shoulder to see her reaction. He wasn't disappointed, judging by the sly smile which blossomed on his tight lips.
Her face flushed, and she was back to white-knuckling. 'What do you mean "no underwear"!? You do know that skirts are prone to...exposing certain parts of the wearer, right? Rather intimate parts, I might add. I can't go out wearing a skirt with nothing underneath!' The thought--to her dismay--excited her, and she smothered her knees against each other, trying to chase away the sinful thoughts. 'What are you thinking? Wasn't the original arrangement that you'd be starring in my videos, and that's that?'
'I've thought about that as well,' he said, dropping another bunch, 'but I've come to the conclusion that you've taken it into the day-to-day, leaving me to play catch-up. This one's on you, sis.'
'On me?' she yelped. 'You're ridiculous!'
'Language.'
'Sorry...no, wait, I'm not sorry!'
He chuckled. 'You can still back out if that's what you want. I'm not forcing you. That's why it's called an agreement. Get a job and move out, lazybones, if this is too ridiculous for you. Oh, and...' he propped up two fingers and waggled them at her, glancing at her legs '...before we forget.'
She followed his gaze, her mind short-circuiting for the shortest moment before she realised he hadn't been indicating her wet crotch. He meant the shorts themselves. She pursed her lips. 'You--you want me to give you my shorts right now?' she stammered. 'Like, you want me to undress right in front of you?'
'The rule's in place, effective immediately. You're in violation, sis.'
Briefly, she considered the feasibility of actually getting a job. However, she'd have no time to find anything if he told their mother right away, and she'd felt miserable during her last stretch of employment. Worst of all, though, her libido was weighing in heavily, and it wasn't rooting for the escape route.
Reluctantly, she got up--inevitably exposing the wet spot. She didn't want to show any interest in her brother's reaction and stared at the ground. Her supple fingers unbuckled her belt, pulled it from the loops, and dropped it unceremoniously. It clacked against the hardwood floor. Then, she unbuttoned and unzipped, grabbed the hem, and pulled the shorts down in one fell swoop. The wet spot was noticeably bigger and darker against the white fabric of her underpants. The shorts pooled around her ankles, and she stepped out of them, tossing them onto the messy mountain her brother had erected with a kick of her right foot.
Elijah picked up one of the skirts in her wardrobe and handed it to his sister, another smirk on his lips. She glanced up when she took it. Her brother was sporting a sizeable bulge--too sizeable to hide it, which he was trying vainly by tenting his left pocket.
When she pulled down the skirt's zipper and stooped to step in, he said, 'Aren't you forgetting something?' His voice was brimming with innuendo, and he enjoyed the show with every fibre. His eyes were fixed on his sister's panties.
For some reason, the thought of stripping down naked in front of her brother took the air out of Essi's lungs. Her knees grew weak, and she felt a tingle in the tips of her fingers. She knew he'd already seen everything that was to see--her videos didn't leave much room for imagination. He'd seen her breasts, her thighs, her buttocks. He'd seen her pussy. And yet she hesitated, eyes fixed on her brother's groin.
'Are you sure you want this?' she asked, straightening up. She held the skirt by her side--she wasn't trying to cover up. She had a plan. 'There's no going back if you make me do this. Why, what am I asking? By the looks of it,' she continued, pointing at his bulge, 'you're downright eager. You know, if you want me to do this, you should do it first.'
'Why's that?' he said, still fiddling with his pocket.
'Well, you're the master, aren't you? You should take the initiative; show your pet how it's done. And anyway, haven't you asked me if I'd ever seen the real thing? I haven't. Time to show me...non-silicone and all.' Now, it was her time to smirk.
She wasn't sure what she was trying to achieve. Either he backs off, she thought, or he'll pull through, and then I'll have to follow--but then, it won't be too bad anymore, right? Too embarrassing. It'll be...doable. I hope.
