Author's Note: This time, the chapter is written with Elijah as the focal character. The next chapter will probably go back to Essi's POV. Mixing it up a little. (oหโกหo)

Elijah closed his bedroom door behind himself and leaned against it after he heard the clack of the lock. His cock was still at half-mast, feeling rubbery and raw against the polyester of his boxers. His breathing was quickened. His thoughts were a huge, jumbled mess. All of them revolved around Essi to some capacity: how she'd ground up on him a mere thirty seconds ago, how she'd done so after ridiculing his ruling, how she'd blatantly taken over the arrangement. Wasn't he supposed to be the one in charge?
He took a deep breath. 'Calm down,' he told himself. 'Gather your thoughts. Gather your thoughts, and come up with a plan on where to go from here.' But he couldn't. Because this wasn't where he was supposed to be; she had put him there. She had steered the situation, and she had achieved what must have been her goal: to confuse him utterly.
First, she had agreed to the arrangement. Reluctantly. Then, she had masturbated for the whole world to hear, drawing his attention and getting him all riled up. Purposely, no doubt. And then, she had changed lanes and swatted his hand away in church, just to nay-say his rule and then grind up on his cock? What kind of game was she playing?
'That's it,' he muttered. 'Except for back at the Mc's lot, she's commandeered everything so far! She broke the arrangement, acted up when I dared to do the same, rallied against the punishment, and then used it to her own advantage.'
He walked toward his mini-bar, hooked to an outlet underneath his desk. It gave off a steady hum. He grabbed a Coke from the bottom row and twisted the cap to a satisfying ziiish.
'I need to get back on top,' he said, swallowing a sip. The carbonation tickled the roof of his mouth. 'I don't know what her plan might be, so I'll just have to sabotage it. Whatever she might propose, whatever notion, action, or motion she might try to impose, I'll have to do the exact opposite. Throw a wrench into the gears.'
He settled down on his desk chair. Swivelling it toward the window, he glanced at the blue sky dotted with white clouds--a perfect afternoon. But not the time to act. Gyrating a finger along the can's top rim, he knew he'd have to wait. She had to make the first move. And so, the rest of the day went by uneventfully.
On the following Monday, Elijah sat in a lecture hall. Professor Whittaker talked about the causes and consequences of hyperinflation in 20th-century economies. Mind-bogglingly interesting, downright gripping. But Elijah's mind was preoccupied with, arguably, even more interesting subject matter: The slight dimples above his sister's ass cheeks, and the subtle V-shape between them, flowing into the small of her back. He'd never known her to be a sports nut, but he wouldn't have been surprised to find out that she was one of those weirdos doing butt exercises. Fits her industry.
He'd spotted those details after her little stunt the day before. After she had rubbed her dripping pussy against his cock--receiving a generous load for her effort--she had turned around, hands raised to her head, and he'd gotten a good view of her backside. White gobs of cum clung to her buttocks, sticking to her dewy skin. More or less intently, he'd spread a little bit of it when he'd pulled back, slipping out of the warm pocket her clamped legs had created, covering the soft lips of his sister's pussy with his semen. He would have liked to take it further--to see his cum not just covering her entrance but her insides, dribbling out, running down her thighs. It had taken his all to refrain from thrusting his cock into her. A single twitch, a well-timed jolt would've done the job. He could practically hear the way she'd have yipped. The way her eyes would've shot open, staring at him, mouth agape, brow creased. The way her ass would've perked up after she'd have flexed her thighs in shock and astonishment.
'Can somebody list the causes of hyperinflation?' Prof Whittaker asked, running his eyes over the students. 'Anyone? Can anyone give me a single cause?' Several hands in the first row jutted into the air.
'Fuck...' Elijah murmured under his breath. 'Fuck it, I'm not in the right state of mind for this.' He shut his laptop, put it into his messenger bag and got up. He slung the bag across his shoulders and shuffled past three guys sitting to his right. The university's halls were mostly empty, and the parking lot was deserted. The hood of his red Corolla glittered underneath the midday sun. For a short, distinct moment, his mind replayed the moment he'd pushed that Coke-doused piece of chipped ice against Essi's soft nipple. It was sort of like a dรฉjร vu. His crotch was tight, and his breathing shallow. He thought he might be going crazy. She was all he could think of.
The roads were free of cars, and he rode a green wave. He was home in no time. His father's Honda Accord wasn't in the driveway, nor was his mother's Ford Fusion. No big surprise. They were still at work. Essi's car wasn't in the driveway either, which was also no big surprise: she'd never learned how to drive.
The second he stepped through the front door--which led directly into the sprawling living room--his sister's head shot up. She was planted on the couch, wearing a blue pleated skirt and a white tee with a print. Her legs were propped up on the coffee table, and the remote was nestled in her right hand. She exclaimed, 'Hey, Elli! How was...university? Was it good? I didn't think you'd be home so soon.'
Her cheerfulness freaked him out. He closed the door and stood at the end of the couch. It was an old piece, clothed and L-shaped. She was sitting on the other side. 'What's up with you?' he said.
'What do you mean?' she enquired, brow furrowed.
'You're so...chirpy.'
'Does that--Does that bother you? If you want, I can throw a tantrum and fling the remote--' she held it up her right hand, miming a chucking motion '--against that wall over there.'
His crotch was still tight, but he wasn't trying to hide it. His blue jeans and the slightly loose sweater covered it up nicely. However, the lingering arousal might have influenced his next decision.
'Get up,' he said.
'Why?' She took her feet off the coffee table, put the remote on it, and sat with her back straight, looking up at him. 'What's up?'
'Do I have to repeat myself?'
'Eh...no. Not at all!' She hopped off the couch and patted down the lap of her skirt. It ended just shy of her knees, and the baggy, crew-necked T-shirt overlapped with its hem. 'What now?' she said.
