FORTUNE TELLER
By
de Vere
This is the first story I have written specifically for Literotica. I hope you enjoy it!
My sister has always been into the stupidest shit. Far back as I can remember, the crazier it was, the more she believed it. Crystals and pyramids. One Direction. I think she believed in Santa until she was 14 or 15.
So, when she took me to a fortune teller, it didn't surprise me at all. The last thing I expected was for that visit to turn me into a believer.
It all started when Ginnie took me to this party to meet some friend's sister. My sister was trying to do me a favor—and I needed one. Ginnie is short for Virginia, which is as inappropriate a name as had our parents had named me Cassanova. It is probably impossible for 2 people to share as much DNA as she and I do to be any more different. She is three years older than me, and everyone says we share a family resemblance. If anything, we are more like mirror images, looking exactly the same except completely opposite. Let me tell you first about Ginnie.
How can I best describe her? Gullible is the first thing that comes to mind, although you already knew that. Hot is the second word I think of, although I am reasonably sure that is what everyone else on the planet thinks of first, whether they see her at a distance or know her well. But I have known her since she was just a little girl, and back then she may have been pretty, but kids don't notice that sort of thing. They do know when someone is naïve and susceptible to all manner of foolishness. So, long before I noticed she is hot—about the time I hit puberty—I had long before concluded she could be convinced of anything. She is also popular, the way hot women are.
What can I tell you about myself? I was 18 at the time, and was none of the things my sister was. I was shy as hell, still skinny as a rail and into fantasy gaming. I dreamed of nothing more than being a superhero, but had to be satisfied with being a shy, introverted college freshman who spent most weekends playing D&D with my buddies in Alex's basement like we had since we were twelve or reading alone in my room.
Ginnie must have really pitied me, because she dragged me to that party to meet the younger sister of one of her sorority sisters. I knew it would be a disaster, but Ginnie can be persuasive. And I really wanted to get laid. If my big sis could eliminate the pain and difficulty of actually meeting the girl by introducing me to the girl, maybe I had a shot.
It wasn't a big party, and I did not know many of her sorority sisters or college friends. In fact, it surprised me that she wanted them to meet her dorky kid brother now. I had seen their photos, and many of them were even more beautiful in person. The place was crawling with guys who seemed to share my opinion. Two guys must have been there for every girl, which is why I hate parties so much. What if Kelly—the girl I was here to meet—preferred these guys?
Several guys stopped Ginnie as she dragged me by a wrist through the crowd. She introduced me to a few, but kept going. We went into a couple of rooms before she pulled me close enough to shout into my ear, "There they are."
It's funny what you think about when meeting a girl for the first time. Kelly had not seen us yet, but I had seen her, and her sister, Kayla, had seen me. An unwanted hierarchy immediate popped into my head. Kayla was hotter than Kelly. A lot hotter. But Kayla was nowhere as hot as Ginnie. It was just so obvious.
Kelly looked like she was homeschooled. Shorter than her sister and a little spongy, with wooly brown hair down to her shoulders, clothing far more conservative than any of the other women at the party and a frightened expression on her face. Her tits were nice, though. Before even meeting, I decided to ask her to join us in Alex's basement.
"Kayla, this is my brother, Bradley."
'Hi, Bradley!" Kayla shook my hand with an excited expression on her face that her sister did not share. A soft, warm hand. I didn't want to let go. "I'd like you to meet Kelly."
"Hi, Kelly."
"Hi, Bradley."
Ginnie said, "Why don't you two get to know each other for a minute. We'll be right back." So, just like that, my sister left me to sink or swim on my own. Kayla did the same to her little sister, who already looked bored. The older sisters went across the room to where Kyle was hanging out with some of his jock buddies. Ginnie had been screwing Kyle for a few months and, from the look of it, Kayla wanted some of his friends to screw her.
My job was to screw her sister. "So, where do you go to school?"
"Fairmont High," she said, then quickly added, "I'm a senior. Are you in high school?"
Thanks. I enjoy people thinking I am 12. Great for the ego. "No, I am in college." I looked over at Ginnie, hoping she might come bail me out, but Kyle had his hand on her ass, so I am on my own. "Do you like gaming?"
"No. My hobbies are baking and playing the flute."
Shit.
Despite her decent tits, Kelly and I quickly found out the only thing we had in common is that our sisters were hotter and more popular than either of us could ever hope to be. We tried to carry on a conversation, but I really have no interest in fondant frosting. Even after she explained it, I had no idea what the fuck she was talking about. Kyle had stopped playing with my sister's ass, and they were in a corner having an animated conversation with serious expressions on their faces. The rest of the baseball team and Kayla had disappeared, and I could only imagine what that meant.
"Where are you going to college next year?"
"I want to go to culinary school. There is one in New York where I really want to study."
Great. Even if we had gotten along, she is leaving town in a couple of months. Much as I want to get laid, I am the kind of guy who does that sort of thing with a girlfriend. Girls look at me less as one-night-stand material than they do boyfriend material. Back then, even I could not picture myself picking up girls at parties. That was still several years in my future. Ginnie, turned and ran out of the room, and there were tears on her face.
"Don't be like that," Kyle called after her, but after taking a couple of steps like he might follow her, he stopped.
"Excuse me," I told Kelly, and ran off after my sister. She weaved her way through the crowd toward the door we had come in while I tried to catch up. When I finally found her outside, standing beside my car, she was crying like crazy. "What happened?"
"Kyle's ... [sob] fucking some ... [sob] slut!"
"Did he tell you that?"
"He didn't ...[sob] have to...[sob]"
"Are you sure?"
Her tears stopped and her eyes narrowed. "Oh, I know."
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll get a ride home with someone."
"Don't be silly—I'll take you."
"What about Kelly?"
"I don't think there is anything there. From either of us."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"Hey, you tried. Let's get out of here."
Ginnie insisted on fries. Grease cures heartache, so we stopped at a drive thru and ate in the car while she vented about that asshole boyfriend of hers. He had gone to his ex-girlfriend's birthday party the night before, and although he claimed nothing happened, she did not believe him. Fries dried up her tears and made her angry. She needed to vent.
"That bimbo isn't nearly as good-looking as me. Her butt is too big. Maybe he likes that. I think she has fake boobs. He does like that."
"He's an asshole," I said, and she enjoyed my support.
"Are my boobs too small?"
"No, they are definitely not too small." As much as my sister's boobs entertained me, talking about them made me feel uncomfortable. I guess I did not describe her very well, so now is probably a good time. Ginnie is tall and thin and very blonde, with a body more like a supermodel than anything. At 5'9" and a size 2, big boobs would look goofy on her. Kelly's were definitely bigger, as were her sister's, but any larger on her would make Ginnie look unbalanced. But I was not going to tell her all that, because she might start thinking it sounded creepy.
"Have some of my fries," she said. "You look hungry."
We ordered a second batch for the road and she fed them to me as I drove. The party was across town, so we turned up the music. I let her pick it, even though her musical taste is more toward pop to be considered good. It was after 10:00 by then. We lived way out in the 'burbs, and I took a road that winds the way back while avoiding interstate. After passing out of the business district into an area of older homes under large, ancient trees, a bright red sign glowed from one of them.
"That's what we need—a psychic."
The neon sign said FORTUNE TELLER, and I had no idea what good that might do. "Do you want to stop or something?"
