I was chilling in the living, playing a casual round of Halo on the old Xbox, when Jenny asked me a question that surprised me.
"Hey, you wanna have sex?" Those tempting words came out of her small mouth.
"What?" I say, unsure if my hearing had gone faulty. The green power-armored main character of the game immediately dies from a headshot as I stand still to stare at the girl sitting beside me, ending my so far flawless run on Legendary difficulty.
"Do you want to have sex?" Jenny repeats her question, looking up from the new phone she's been glued to since getting it yesterday. Her emerald green eyes, filled with no awkwardness whatsoever, meet my darker green irises.
"Um, yeah." I'm slightly annoyed that I died and had to pause the game to answer such a stupid question. "Who doesn't?"
I unpause, respawning and continuing to play, but I don't make it any further than the 30 second mark before dying again to yet another shocking question.
"Oh, then do you want to have sex with me?"
Master Chief does a wonderful somersault as a grenade that I meant to throw at a group of Grunts hit a barricade and bounced back under my feet. I pause the game again.
"Excuse me?" Was today a dream after all? I woke up feeling refreshed for once in my life and had a near perfect run since Chapter 1 of the game. Now, a hot babe was asking me if I wanted to bang.
Jenny repeats herself, cheeks flushed with a slight pink from embarrassment, after looking at my blank face. "I said, you wanna fuck me?"
I stare at her, the question leaving my mouth agape.
Now, don't get me wrong. I was a hot-blooded 20 year old male in the prime of his youth, and as a virgin at my age I would jump at the chance to have sex. If another girl similar to Jenny asked me to, I would have jumped her right then and there.
It wasn't Jenny's fault. She is actually pretty good looking. Not exactly a 10/10, but a solid 6/10 with a slender build, innocent green eyes set on a rather pretty looking face with a dash of freckles on her button nose, perky probably B-cup breasts, a flat yet soft looking stomach, a thin waist, wide hips for her body-type, long slender legs, and a pert butt. In truth, she would be a total 11/10 babe with her great personality that I would totally kill for a chance to bang...
...if the one tiny detail of Jenny being my fraternal twin wasn't in the way.
"No." I try to go back to playing my game, assuming that this is another one of her nonsense questions. She asked a lot of those lately. It was probably the weed we got from a friend this Friday, though I swear we smoked the last of that little baggy last night.
"But why not?" Jenny leans towards me from the couch, and since I was on the floor she had to lean down just to get close to me. I have a nice view of the two youthful things attached to her chest that are seemingly unaffected by the gravity that makes her loose orange shirt droop low.
Shit! She isn't wearing a bra!
I die for the third time in less than 5 minutes, something that's never happened since I was a noob that believed the Legendary run to be easy like other fps rpg's. My head snaps away to the other direction, my poor attempt to hide my embarrassed face.
"You're my sister for Christ's sake!" I sputter, trying to wipe my mind of the sinful thoughts of sex while my sister is practically breathing on me.
"And?" I get the feeling that Jenny is tilting her head as she says this, a habit of hers whenever she made an excuse for something that she wanted. "You're my brother too, idiot!"
I feel a headache coming on.
She isn't going to let this go now, is she?
Jenny is a bit of a brat after all, and she won't stop until she gets what she wants. Not her fault, my parents were a bunch of pricks that wanted a baby girl after three sons. They weren't really thrilled to find out that after 5 more years of trying their little girl came with a little boy, practically treating their brand new son like dirt while their brand new daughter got the princess treatment.
Our two oldest brothers weren't really thrilled at having all that love and affection suddenly drying up either. They were really harsh on Jenny while we grew up, but I always stood up for her like how she stood up for me whenever my parent's conveniently forgot Jenny's grand birthdays were mine too.
It was a little joke in elementary that we were Siamese twins attached to the hip, or that we were a certain pair of incestuous twins in a certain popular fantasy show whilst in highschool.
I am not thrilled that Jenny wants one of those to be true.
"No, Jennifer." I use her real name in a serious tone. "Just because I'm your brother doesn't mean it's okay to bang me."
"But don't you want to feel good like Shawn and Kelly?"
"Since when were those two banging?" I get side tracked with this piece of gossip. Jenny shows me her phone, where a 30 second long clip of our bestfriends fucking each others brains out was playing.
"Let me see that!" I grab her phone out of her hands and scroll up to see older messages, all from Kelly. Their chat is just filled with short clips of Kelly's own porn session, inter-spaced with talks of how good sex felt and how Jenny should get a man quick to not be the only girl in the group not to know of how mind blowing a fuck was.
"I wanna know how sex feels like!" Jenny says with a pout when I rip my eyes from the phone to look at her.
Right, completely forgot that because our older brothers bullied her as a kid, she had the behavioral quirk of wanting to be part of the crowd so she can be 'better' friends with her friends. Her desire to be part of the crowd was one of the reasons as to why she was the most popular girl in highschool, while I was the lesser known and much lamer twin in the shadows.
"And I'm your first choice?!" I'm flattered, really. Having a hot babe tell you that you were her first choice really strokes the ego.... even if said hot babe was a sibling.
"Well, duh!" She says this with a lot of confidence, as if it is the only obvious answer. "You're the only guy with a penis I know well enough to ask!"
"Couldn't you just, I don't know, get a one night stand?" I suggest, giving her phone back to her. "I know a couple guys that would kill a guy to spend a night with you."
"And that's exactly why you're my only choice!" Jenny presses her back to the couch and sighs. "Out of every guy I know, you're the only one that doesn't want to get into my pants voluntarily."
"Really? Even Mason?"
"He only pretended to be gay so I would feel comfortable undressing in front of him." A quick look at my face filled with murderous intent had her quickly adding, "Not that I ever did of course, and he fessed up to me after I tried to hook him up for the third time."
"What about our older brothers?" Now that I knew incest was part of her table, I asked about our blood relatives. I would've added our dad to the list, but Jenny and I both knew he was too old for her tastes. Plus, I swear that man was actively trying to kill me in our childhood days, which Jenny didn't like about him.
"Martin is a sleazy douche bag, and Gerard is in prison, and Carl is half-way across the world on some charity run or whatever."
Right, did I forget to mention that our 1st and 2nd older brothers were dicks? Not their fault our parents were so shit, but Carl and us turned out fine so I couldn't get their problem.
Speaking of Carl...
"Remind me to thank Carl again when he comes back, okay?" Honestly, if it wasn't for our one good brother being the salt of the earth we would probably be drug addicts right now. Well, I would, Jenny would probably be a bitch. He even paid for half of our tuition (Our mom and dad conveniently forgot I existed once again), and this tiny apartment.
"Mmm." Jenny agrees with me and we fall back to silence, thinking about the good our older brother did for us and all the other people.
I pick up the controller that I inadvertently dropped and start playing my game again.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Jenny yells, rising up from her nostalgic stupor, and I pause the game to avoid yet another death. "You can't just deflect me like that!"
