One month later, Patience and Langdon moved into a nice, two-bedroom apartment in a good part of town, not far from campus. The weather was still cold, but it was late March, and the tiniest hint of spring was in the air.
Both Langdon's and Patience's friends helped them move. They could hardly believe the story about the siblings being separated for so long, but once they saw them together, and realized the resemblance, they believed.
One of Patience's friends caught Langdon's eye. Her name was Melody Hansen. She was a beautiful blonde with straight hair, long, slender legs and big green eyes. She was much sought-after on the campus, by both men and women. The rumor was that she was bisexual. When Langdon spoke privately to Patience about it, she said, "Oh, I heard that, too. Well, Melody's a friend, and she's never made a pass or anything like that at me." And that was that, for the time being.
The first month together in the apartment was slightly hectic. Both Langdon and Patience had mid-terms, and they couldn't spend too much time together. And, they had their occasional squabbles, as roommates do. But mostly they got along very well together.
Patience kept their relationship close and affectionate, but not intimate. She wanted to wait a little while longer. She wanted the time to be just right, perhaps when summer vacation began.
In the meantime, they studied, they worked--he at a movie theater, she at a gym--they partied, they both participated in intramurals, and they lived together as brother and sister.
Things were going as planned until something happened that caused her to decide to make her move early. During an intramural softball game, Patience hurt her shoulder diving for the ball. She immediately left the game, although the injury initially didn't hurt too much. She even went to work at the gym. But over the course of the evening, her shoulder became more and more painful. At nine o'clock, the gym closed. It was her responsibility to lock up that night. She ran everybody out, locked the front door, turned off the lights, then went back to the office, and called Langdon at home.
"Hello," he said.
"Hey," she said.
"Hi, Sis. What's up?"
"Can you come to the gym?" she asked.
"Uh, I guess so. What's going on?"
"I hurt myself playing softball today. Could you come look at it?"
"Why don't you come home?" Langdon sounded concerned.
"Well, it really hurts, and it's my shoulder. I'm not sure I can drive. Will you come?"
"Okay, sure. I'll be there in about twenty minutes."
She met him at the front door, unlocking it to let him in, then locking it behind them. Patience was obviously in pain, her drawn face and grimace testified to it.
"What happened, Sis?" Langdon asked.
"I was playing intramural softball this afternoon and I fell on my left shoulder. It really hurts," she said. She looked almost ready to cry.
"Have you done anything for it yet?"
"Not really. One of the other girls gave me some ibuprofen, but it hasn't helped much--at least not yet."
"Okay, well, let me have a look," Langdon said concernedly.
They went back into the girls' locker room. Patience said, "I've already heated up the sauna. I was going to try some heat to see if that would make it feel better." She sat down on a bench.
Langdon said, "That's probably a good idea. I'll be right back. I'm going to get some oil and some witch hazel from my locker."
When he returned, Patience had undressed down to her bra and panties. She sat on the bench, hunched over a little, in obvious pain. Langdon sat down behind her and gently began palpating her shoulder area. It was already starting to bruise some, and she had some swelling as well. "Wow, exactly how did you do this?" he asked.
"I was diving for the ball, missed, and landed right on the ball of my shoulder. Oww! That really hurts!" she sobbed.
"Sorry," he said hastily. He had been slowly moving her arm through its range of motion. He kept having to move her bra strap.
She said, "Wait a minute." She unfastened her bra from the front and laid it on the bench beside her. Langdon took a deep breath and swallowed hard. His penis began to harden. He moved a little closer, and, very gently, felt around the shoulder joint.
"Well," he said, "I don't think it's broken, thank goodness. And it seems to be in place. But it could probably use a gentle rubdown with some witch hazel, another dose of ibuprofen, and maybe even immobilization."
"What about the sauna?" she asked quietly.
"Yeah, we can try that too," he said.
Patience got up. She turned her back to him. Aware that he was watching her closely, she removed her panties and laid them on the bench beside her bra. She looked over her shoulder. Langdon looked at her. Her face showed the pain from her shoulder, but it also showed an unspoken invitation, almost a plea. Softly, she said, "I always go naked in the sauna. Get undressed."
Langdon's heart jumped into his throat. Part of him screamed that this was wrong, wrong, wrong! But another part of him screamed that she was undoubtedly the sexiest woman he had ever seen. And she was his own sister!
He undressed quickly and followed her into the sauna. His cock jutted out in front of him. He was embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do. He entered the sauna. It was very hot. A glance at the thermometer told him it was close to 185 degrees in there. Patience was sitting on the bench, sweat already glistening on her slender body. Langdon noted her slim legs and sleek, muscled back. Her shortish blonde hair was plastered to her neck and brow. She looked at him, smiled a tight, pained smile. Langdon knew that she saw his fully-erect cock, but she said nothing. She only drew her legs up before her on the bench and rested her head and arms on her knees.
