"Rose, what do you think?"
"A nice holiday, somewhere hot."
"Peter, it's your turn."
"A new car," then I stood there smiling, expecting Father to agree with me, but he didn't say anything, instead he just looked at my Sister.
Her face was a picture of concentration, then a huge grin appeared.
She almost shouted it out, "I want a Hot Tub."
Mother was now shaking her head.
"I still think we need a holiday," then she gave my Father a look that said, 'Agree with me'.
"I wish I hadn't asked."
"Yes, it should just be me and you that decide what to do with the money."
Before my Sister and I could complain, Father quickly said, "No", then he added, "It's difficult, you all want different things."
Mother then interrupted him, "You never told us what you want."
"A bit of peace and quiet would be nice."
I laughed, but Mother was not amused. Her hands were now on her hips, and she was glaring at him.
He put his hands up in the air, as if surrendering, then he said, "I would like to have the garden landscaped."
My Father was a successful business man, his last project had brought in a decent amount of money, quite a bit more than he had expected. We were all together now trying to decide how to spend that extra money.
For the next ten minutes we discussed the suggestions, but nobody would change their mind. It was now getting a bit heated.
"I have had enough of this, I am putting it into our savings account."
"What about picking it out of a hat?"
I could see Father was thinking about Mother's idea. I desperately wanted us to get a new car, because, with a bit of persuading, I would have a good chance of having our current one. One in four was not good odds, but better than nothing.
"OK," then he smiled before adding, "Alice, go and get my hat."
She took one step forward, then she stopped. We all then laughed, even Alice. Father didn't have a hat.
Five minutes later Father was picking a piece of paper out of a cup. He quickly unfolded it, but then he waited a few seconds before speaking.
"The winner is," then, he looked at each of us in turn, before saying, "A holiday."
Mother was obviously pleased, but my Sister was now sulking. I was quite happy, that had been my second choice. Father just looked relieved that it was all over.
"Peter, please pass me the cup. I will empty it into the bin."
I was handing it over to Mother, as my Sister was walking passed me. She nudged my arm, I think on purpose out of spite, because she had lost. The cup turned over, and a slip of paper dropped to the floor. I picked it up. I was about to put it back into the cup, but then I noticed the worried look on Mother's face, and she was staring at it. When I unfolded it she groaned, on it was written, 'HOLIDAY'.
Father checked the others, they were all the same.
"Rose, I am disappointed with you."
She hung her head in shame, but I was impressed, I wish I had thought of doing that.
This time Father prepared the draw, and the winner was, 'Hot Tub'. Alice immediately punched the air. I just shook my head, I have never understood their appeal. I think landscaping the garden might even have been a better choice.
Five minutes later I was over it, but I knew that for the next few days my Sister would be unbearable. Passing her bedroom, on my way to mine, I decided that I should at least congratulate her, it was the decent thing to do.
"Sis, can I come in?"
There was a loud, "Yes", from her.
"I just wanted to say..."
My Sister was sitting on her bed, and she was only wearing her underwear.
I mumbled, "Sorry, I will talk to you later."
"Don't be silly, my swimsuit is more revealing than this," then she smiled before adding, "And you have seen it all before."
I had. Two months ago I had barged into the bathroom, desperate to take a leak. I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw her. She was sitting on the floor cross-legged, completely naked.
She looked up at me, then she calmly said, "Sorry, I forgot to lock the door. I am doing my daily meditation."
I just nodded.
"I also do some stretching."
She then put her hands on her knees, pulling them outwards. I saw the concentration on her face, it must be straining her inner thigh muscles, but then my gaze was fixed on what was between her legs. She held that pose for a minute, then she relaxed.
"Let me get dressed, then you can have the bathroom."
She then smiled at me as she pointed to the door. I left, and a couple of minutes later the bathroom was free.
"So little Brother, what were you trying to say?"
She seemed to be enjoying my discomfort.
I started again, "I just wanted to say that I am happy for you."
"You mean for getting the Hot Tub?"
"Yes."
"That is very sweet of you."
Back in my bedroom I shook my head, seeing my Sister like that was not good for my blood pressure. Ever since the incident in the bathroom, I have been having unhealthy thoughts about her, and, despite my best efforts, they refuse to go away. I now even masturbate while I think about her body, and what a body it is.
She is twenty two, three years older than me, and is just over five feet tall. Her face is pretty, rather than beautiful, but she does have amazing green eyes. However I doubt if many men notice them, their gaze is always directed towards her large breasts. How big are they? Think of Dolly Parton, then add another inch or two.
When I first started to get interested in girls, I soon realised that my Sister was hot, as did my friends. I took pride in watching them drool over her. Over the years my feelings for her have been admiration rather than sexual, but that changed when I saw her naked. She had been sitting on the floor, hands on hips, her tits pointing up at me. Large firm melons, topped with cherry sized nipples. Without clothes I could appreciate the slimness of her waist, and then, when she stretched her legs, I got to see her most intimate place. I was standing, so I didn't have the best view, but I saw a lot more than a brother should ever see of his Sister. Large lips obscured her clit, but I could see her pink opening. It was a nice cunt, but agonizingly for me, it would always be off limits.
For the next two days I didn't see much of my Sister, she was spending a lot of time in her bedroom. That was unusual, what was going on?
I knocked on her door, then I shouted, "Are you busy?"
"Yes, but you can come in."
This time I thought I should check before entering.
"Are you dressed?"
"No, but you can still come in."
I wasn't sure if she was joking, but then I heard her laughing.
"It's OK, I am fully clothed."
When I opened the door, it wouldn't have surprised me if she was naked again. However she wasn't. As she had said, she was fully clothed, but she was wearing a short skirt and skimpy top. As she always says, "If you have got it, then flaunt it." And boy does she have it.
She was sitting on her bed, and in front of her were lots of papers. In her hand she had a note pad.
"Are you studying for an exam?"
She smiled, then she shook her head.
"More important than that, it's for the Hot Tub. Take a look at this magazine."
She thrust it into my hand, it was, 'Hot Tub Monthly'.
I tossed it back onto the bed.
"Thanks, but I have already read it."
Her eyes widened in surprise, but then I spoiled it by smiling. This time when she handed it to me, I did take an interest in it. Its feature piece was, 'Top Tips When Buying a Hot Tub'.
I passed it back to her.
"So have you decided?"
"Yes, but I just need to persuade Father. It's a bit more expensive than the budget he gave me."
That might be difficult. If it was a boyfriend she wanted something from, then she would only have to flash her tits to get what she wanted. However Father was immune to her charms. Now if it was Uncle Francis that was paying, she would be laughing. I wonder if anybody else has noticed how he looks at her? I think if she asked him for anything, he would immediately say yes, in the hope that one day it would help him to get into her knickers.
"I want the Premium Plus model, but I only have enough for the Premium."
I wondered how the two compared, but I didn't ask in case she told me. I didn't fancy a ten minute lecture on Hot Tubs.
I looked again at all the stuff on her bed, she was certainly taking it seriously. I then left so that she could continue with her research.
That night in bed I thought about Alice, this time as my Sister rather than as an object of desire. She wasn't just absurdly attractive, she was also very clever. You have to be if you have a Chemistry Degree, and she achieved a First Class. If she has selected the Premium Plus model, then it must be the one to have.
The next day I was late getting up, it was a Saturday so it didn't matter. Everybody else had already eaten, so I had the kitchen to myself. I was just tucking into a large bowl of cereal, when my Sister popped her head round the door.
There was a large grin on her face, "Premium Plus," was all she said, then she was gone.
So she had convinced Father.
Then I heard her shout from the living room, "Now the difficult decision. What colour should it be?"
I didn't care. It was something I was never going to use.
For the rest of the day there was no mention of Hot Tubs, but at Sunday lunch there was.
"Now that we are all together, I can tell you what we have chosen."
He then let my Sister tell us.
Without any preamble, she said, "Premium Plus from Hot Tubs International," then she added "Midnight Blue."
"Shouldn't we get the Plus Plus one, or even the Plus Plus Plus?"
My Sister ignored me, but Mother looked concerned. Alice decided that she needed to reassure her.
"David is trying to be funny. The ones he mentioned don't exist."
Mother looked relieved, then she said, "When will we get it."
Father was about to speak, but my Sister beat him to it, "Five weeks, if we order it today."
She then looked at Father, he just nodded.
It wasn't five weeks, it was four, but it took two days to install rather than the expected one.
"It's fully guaranteed for five years, but it will need regular maintenance."
Father then signed some documents, and the fitters left.
I wasn't at home when it was first used, I was away staying with a friend. When I got home my Sister was eager to tell me all about it.
