"Mom! Dad! Julie's home!" I called to my parents as I saw my big sister's car headlights coming up the driveway. I quickly got up from the couch and ran outside to greet her as she parked her car and opened the door.
"Hey, Jules!" I said to her as she stepped out into our driveway.
"Hey, yourself!" she replied as she broke into a smile at my excitement of seeing her. She quickly stepped forward into my outstretched arms as we embraced closely. "It's so great to see you!"
My sister had been off at her freshman year of college, and I'd missed her dearly. As the only children in our family, we had been especially close growing up. Her comment inspired a welcome warmness in my chest.
"Here, let me give you a hand with your bags," I offered. We walked around the back of her car and opened the tailgate. I grabbed two of her large suitcases and struggled to lift them out of the car. "How much stuff did you have at school??" I asked her incredulously.
She laughed, "I'm moving to a different apartment in the fall, so I had to bring all of my clothes back for the summer. Thanks for the help though!"
"No problem," I replied with a forced smile. The bags must've weighed 50 pounds each, and I struggled to awkwardly shuffle up to the side door.
Walking up the path to the house, I asked, "So how was the drive back? Did you hit any traffic?"
"No, it wasn't too bad once I got out of the city. It's just easy to space out on those long stretches of highway though so I'm glad that I won't be doing that drive again for a few months."
As we entered the side door, my parents were coming out of their bedroom. "JULIE!" our mom exclaimed as she saw her only daughter for the first time in months. She ran up and grabbed her in a deep embrace.
My dad ambled up behind her, and smiling, said, "Hey kiddo!"
Julie smiled over my mom's shoulder and said, "Hey Mom and Dad! It's so nice to be back!"
Mom stepped back but grasped her by the shoulders. She beamed at her, "We've missed you so much. Are you hungry? We have some leftovers from dinner that I can heat up for you!"
"Sure, that'd be great," she replied.
As my mom scurried over to the refrigerator to make up a plate, Dad stepped in to give her a big hug too. "It's great to have you home."
"It's definitely great to be home! I'm looking forward to relaxing for a while after those finals."
As they separated their embrace, I asked her, "Hey Jules, do you want me to bring these bags up to your room?"
"Sure, thanks!" she replied.
Again, I struggled to awkwardly carry her bags through the kitchen and living room and up the stairs to her old bedroom. Entering her room, I flipped the switch to turn on the light, and I deposited her suitcases by her bureau. It had been a long time since I'd been in her room, and I paused for a minute to look around. Her bed was still neatly made from the last time that she was home, and it looked like our mom had recently cleaned the whole room in preparation for Julie's arrival.
I glanced over at her mirror on the wall, framed by photos of her with both her friends and family. Fondly, I noticed a picture of the two of us at the beach together. Seeing her radiant smile in that picture, I silently reflected on how beautiful she really was. Before looking away, I glanced down at her chest and quickly noticed her boobs spilling out of her pink string bikini. Seeing that, I felt an odd mixture of arousal and shame in my stomach.
"Dude, don't even think about that," I thought to myself as I quickly looked away. "She's your
sister
."
Taking a minute to compose myself, I took a few deep breaths. I quickly looked at the picture of the two of us once more before turning off the light and heading back downstairs.
After rejoining my family at the kitchen table, we all caught up over the past few months as Jules ate her late dinner. She told us all about school, from her intramural volleyball team to her roommate drama to her final exams. We were incredibly excited to have her back home, especially me. I had felt particularly lonely being the only child over the past year.
Watching her talk, I began to notice the way that her eyes sparkled and her mouth naturally smiled with excitement. She frequently pushed her hair behind her ears, and again, I felt an uncomfortable fluttering in my stomach. Hoping that these emotions weren't displayed on my face, I tried to convince myself that I was just excited to have my big sister home. However, deep down, I knew that something was different about the way that I felt about her.
"Alright, well as great as it is to have you home, I do need to head to bed so that I can get at least a few hours of sleep before work in the morning," Mom eventually said.
Yawning, Julie agreed, "I'm exhausted too. It'll be so nice to sleep in my own bed again."
"I'm sure it will. I cleaned up your room for you, so make sure you keep it that way!" Mom said, confirming my earlier assumption.
We all got up, and after saying goodnight to my parents, Jules and I headed upstairs to our bedrooms. She looped her arm in mine as we walked to the stairs, and resting her head on my shoulder, she said, "It is great to be home, James. I can't wait to relax and hang on the beach for the next few weeks before I start working again."
"Yeah, must be nice," I said with a cynical smile. "I, on the other hand, am already working several days a week."
"You're working at O'Malley's Tavern?" she asked as we arrived at the top of the stairs.
"Yeah, I'm still barbacking now, but my manager said that I may get some bartending shifts later in the summer. Either way, it's still great money."
"I'm sure it is! I'll have to come in with the girls sometime to see you in action!" she said with a smile.
Smiling back, I said, "Sure, that'd be great." As we reached the top of the stairs, I asked, "Do you want to use the bathroom first?"
"Yeah, thanks," she responded. "I just need to get changed and brush my teeth and I'll be all set."
Parting ways, I entered my bedroom and closed the door. I stood there in silence for a minute as I again thought about the different emotions that I was feeling with Julie being back home. She's always been my loving, protecting, best friend older sister, and I didn't know how or why I would feel anything more than that about her.
Resolving to push those thoughts out of my mind, I stripped down for bed. Although I sleep nude, I slipped on a pair of athletic shorts before opening my bedroom door again and waiting for Julie to finish up in the bathroom.
Finally, hearing the bathroom door open, I bounced up and entered the hall. Seeing Jules exit the bathroom, I stopped in my tracks. All she had on was a white sports bra and black skin-tight shorts that looked as if they could be painted on.
Seeing my expression, she laughed, "James, you ok?"
I quickly pulled it together and said, "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. You good in the bathroom?"
Smiling at me knowingly, she said, "Yeah, I'm good. Have a good night sleep."
With that, she walked away toward her room, and I saw her backside. Her shorts were literally so short that the bottom part of her ass was basically sticking out. Sensing my eyes on her, she self-consciously tugged them down to cover her exposed behind right before closing her bedroom door.
