A note from Nikki
This is the 100
th
story I've posted under my nikki_2021 account at Literotica. It seemed fitting that it be within the incest/taboo category given that's where a lot of my work has been. It all seemed right that it be a nice, long tale with plenty of build up. I know some people will be annoyed by the length, but hopefully those of you who enjoy a nice long build will take plenty of pleasure for it.
Thanks to everyone who has commented on my stories over the years, its always nice to receive feedback, especially the positive ones. Even the negative feedback can sometimes help me with direction for future stories (though to be honest, a lot of it just makes the commentor look like a bit of a dick haha).
Anyway, I'm sure you'd rather read the actual story, so thanks again.
Licks and kisses,
nikki

When I was twelve, my older brother introduced me to a game. He called it the peg game. It was pretty simple. He'd take one of Mum's old wooden clothes pegs and clip it somewhere on my clothing. Then he'd see how long it would take for me to find it. It used to shit me no end. He took so much pleasure in telling me how insufferably long it had taken for me to realise the peg had been clipped there. It would be pegged to the back of my t-shirt, or to the hem of my school skirt, or sometimes even on my skirt directly behind my butt so I'd find it as soon as I sat down. Those placements pissed me off more than any of the others.
He was three years older than I was and a sly bastard. He was too good at it. It was just one of many ways in which he used to torment me.
There was only one way to fight back: I started doing it back to him. I thought once I did, he'd see how annoying it was and stop, but instead it just encouraged him. I was surprised, though. I started to enjoy the game. Sometimes he'd see how many pegs he could hang on my clothes before I noticed any of them and then I'd do the same to him. It started to drive our parents mad as well.
For some reason, unlike a lot of other things we got up to as kids, that game endured. It evolved, but it endured.
In the end, it came down to one peg. When Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone first came out, Brandon took a wooden peg and painted it gold. He called it the snitch, and that became the only peg that mattered. We became warier of each other, of course; and as time passed, it became more and more difficult for us to catch each other off guard.
One day, long after it had become incredibly tricky to catch each other out, Brandon introduced a new wrinkle.
"How about we make this game more interesting, Sarah?"
I was immediately suspicious.
"What do you mean, interesting?"
"How about each time one of us manages to peg one another, the person that's been pegged has to do something for the other?"
"Like what?" I asked. By this time Brandon was seventeen and I was fourteen. We got along well enough, but that didn't mean I trusted him. He could still be mean to me, especially when his guy friends were around.
"Like, do one of the other person's chores or something."
I gave it some thought. The way we now played the game it went back and forth, so every time I pegged him, he'd have to do a chore for me. It might take me longer to catch him unaware, but at least he wouldn't ever be able to like double up on me and have me doing his chores at a rate faster than I could have him doing mine. So I agreed.
We kept playing the game like that for a couple of years. Sometimes it would take me a couple of weeks to find an opportunity to peg him. It never took him that long, but it wasn't uncommon for it to take him a week.
When Brandon finished high school it slowed down, because we didn't see each other as often. It never quite stopped, though.
It was about a month after my eighteenth birthday that things took a different turn.
I found the peg attached to the back of my pants leg, just within the fold of the knee. Brandon had been at dinner and had dropped something under the table. I'd been suspicious and avoided him while he was down there, but he must have caught me afterwards. I'd thought he had soccer training, so I didn't think he would be at dinner or I'd have worn my compression tights. I found they were the ideal thing to wear around him, because there was almost no way for him to clip the peg on without my feeling him doing it.
I went up to his room when I found it.
"Okay Brandon, you got me. What chore do I have to do for you?" I said, leaning against the frame of his doorway.
"You know, I don't think chores really work for us anymore. I mean think about it, do you even really do any chores around the house?"
"Well, we often have to do the dishes," I replied.
"Yeah but like, I dunno, it's not the same. I still like the thrill of the chase and catching you out, but it seems like it would be better if there were something like... I dunno, a different consequence for getting caught."
"Like what?" I asked, knowing he must have already given this some thought, so there could easily be a trap somewhere if I wasn't careful.
"Like a dare," he replied.
"Sounds interesting." I gave it some thought. It was a lot more open-ended than doing a chore, but it was kind of exciting. "Okay, but there have to be some rules."
"Sure, anything you want that makes sense."
"Well, we have to have the right to refuse if it's too crazy or something."
"Sounds reasonable."
