Jaime’s hands stretched above her head and she sighed. Opening her eyes slowly to adjust to the light in her bedroom, she glanced at the clock and realized it was summer vacation, time to relax, not worry about what time it was. Her long auburn hair was scattered over her pillow and she rested her arms on top of it, getting used to the idea of waking up.
The noises coming from the bathroom were what really got her out of bed. She knew that her brother, Aidan, was home from university and was likely to be the only one at home at 11:00 on a Tuesday. She padded softly out of the bedroom wearing her pyjamas, a short tank top with flannel pants. While Jaime could never believe in her own beauty, she knew that she was attractive in her own right. She was 5’4”, had deep blue eyes, and her figure was just slightly curving out into womanhood. Her breasts were slightly large on her frame and very firm. At eighteen, most guys in her high school considered her a prize. But she dated rarely, preferring to wait to get seriously involved until college.
Aidan was also extremely attractive, and during his senior year of high school three years previously, had dated every star cheerleader in the squad. His light brown hair, blue eyes, and athletic build made him the most attractive guy in his senior class. His dating didn’t slow down in college, and Jaime often heard him talking about the girls at school.
Jaime walked up slowly to the bathroom door and heard soft grunting noises coming from inside. She smiled wickedly. Aidan was masturbating behind that door, and she was going to startle the hell out of him.
“Aidan, is that you?” she said loudly. She heard him curse quietly behind the door and heard the rustling noises of being caught. “What are you doing in there?”
“Uh, hey James,” he said weakly, opening the door. “You need the bathroom?”
“No,” Jaime said fiendishly. She followed him down the stairs, furtively smiling behind his back.
“Listen, Jaime, could you do me a huge favour?” Aidan asked distractedly as he avoided her eyes.
“Stop listening to you masturbate in the bathroom?” she replied back.
Aidan stopped and stared at her. “I wasn’t masturbating,” he said, lying.
“Sure. What was your favour?”
“Well, now you caught me off-guard,” he said, grinning. “Let me remember.”
Jaime saw her brother’s eyes flick up and down her body. She knew he wasn’t spent; he hadn’t had the chance to come in the bathroom. He was still so horny he was staring at his own sister! Jaime felt her skin get warm all over, even as she tried to suppress her own desire.
“I need you to pick up some computer paper at the store today when you go out,” he said, snapping her back to reality.
“Oh, okay,” she said softly, clearing her throat. “Yeah, I’ll do that.”
“Thanks, sweetie,” he said, leaning forward to kiss the top of her head before leaving out the side door. “I owe you!”
Jaime stepped out of the shower just as she heard the side door close. “Damn,” she thought. She hadn’t thought to bring a towel in with her; it was only 12:30 in the afternoon and her parents wouldn’t be home yet. She just kept forgetting that Aidan was home for the summer.
“James, where are ya?” Aidan called from downstairs. “I figured you’d be slow getting ready during the first week of summer vacation so I got the paper myself.”
“Oh – okay,” Jaime replied, praying he wouldn’t come upstairs as she tiptoed down the hall to her bedroom.
“Oh shit, Jaime, you should’ve warned me,” Aidan said from behind her. Mortified, Jaime turned around to see her brother covering his eyes.
“Jesus!” Jaime jumped up and whirled around. “I was hoping you wouldn’t come upstairs!”
“Well, I am too, now,” Aidan smiled, his hands still over his eyes.
Jaime sighed. “God, Aidan, it’s not like you haven’t seen me naked before,” she said. “I know you’ve seen a lot of girls naked. It’s not like it’s a big deal, I’m just another naked female body.”
“Well yeah, but you’re my sister… that kind of makes it wrong, James,” he replied, his eyes still covered.
Jaime’s heart was beating in her chest. She realized suddenly how sexy her older brother was. He stood at least six inches taller than her, and she had always loved tall men. She suddenly found herself wondering how many inches he had below the belt. She walked up to him slowly, her knees trembling and her heart beating so hard she could hear it. Her hands reached for his and took them down from his eyes slowly.
“I don’t think it’s wrong, Aidan,” she said softly. “Don’t you find me beautiful?”
Aidan’s breathing was coming in quick gasps as he stared at his sister’s soft, young body. “God, James,” he said softly. “This is so wrong.”
“How can it be wrong,” she asked him.
“I – really gotta go. I’m sorry James,” he said quickly, turning and walking briskly downstairs.
Jaime could have kicked herself. How could this happen? How could she have done such a stupid thing? Aidan would probably avoid her all summer. She might as well say goodbye to the chance to go visit him in the fall. He probably thought she was crazy.
Jaime spent the day holed up in her room, refusing to come down for supper when her parents called. At 11:00 she decided to call it a night and try to get some sleep. She removed her flannel pants – it was a warm night – and decided to sleep in her panties and tank top. At midnight, after tossing and turning for an hour, she saw the door to her room open slightly and saw the shadow of her brother on her bedroom floor. She willed herself to stay still, to pretend like she was sleeping, to keep her breathing slow and deep.
“James,” Aidan whispered softly. He was quiet after that, evidently he assumed she was sleeping. He approached the bed slowly after turning and closing the door behind him.
Aidan walked up to her bed and knelt down quietly, looking at her face in the moonlit room. His eyes drifted down to her chest and watched her slow breathing, drifted further and saw her gentle curves under the blankets. Gathering his courage, Aidan touched Jaime’s arm, feeling the softness of her skin. She struggled to remain calm as his hand pushed the blankets down her body to look at her. She could feel her panties getting damp and hoped the moon wasn’t bright enough for Aidan to see the wet spot forming between her legs. But Aidan had no intention of letting her sleep. He shook her gently, waking her.
“Jaime, wake up,” he whispered.
Her eyes opened slowly, her breath slightly ragged. She couldn’t think of anything to say, so she didn’t say anything at all.
“Um… we need to talk about this afternoon,” he said gently.
Jaime groaned inside. He had come to embarrass her again! She would never forgive herself.
“Listen… James, are you a virgin?” he asked.
Jaime looked up at her brother. “No,” she said softly. “Are you mad?”
“No, no,” he said. “Move over, would ya?” Aidan sat down on the bed and rested his hand on her hip. “We don’t know each other very well, do we?”
“What do you mean?” Jaime asked.
“I’ve always wanted to get to know you better,” Aidan whispered softly.
