It all started at the beginning of the nationwide lockdown. The coronavirus, also known as covid-19, was spreading like wildfire all across the country and state after state had no choice but to start shutting down non-essential businesses. Millions of people who were able to started to work from home. Danny Milton was one of those people who had to start working from home, something he had never expected to do. He enjoyed going to work on a regular basis, but now he was going to be stuck at home for who knows how long.
He lived in a small two-bedroom apartment and his roommate had just moved out a few weeks earlier to move in with his girlfriend. He was in the process of looking for a new roommate when people started to freak out about the pandemic. He was prepared to start living alone for a while which he preferred not to do. He would rather have a roommate to hang out with, or even better a girlfriend to have some bedtime fun with. He tried to reach out to a few friends to see if they were interested in renting the second bedroom, but they already made other living arrangements during the pandemic.
He didn't have to worry about living alone for long when on the first day of him having to stay at home when he got a call from his mother about an urgent matter.
"What's going on, mom?" he asked.
"It's your cousin Katie," she said over the cracking over her outdated cell phone. "She needs a place to stay, and I know you have an extra bedroom you're looking to rent out. Can't she stay with you?"
"I don't know, mom, I was hoping for a guy to move in so I could hang out with."
"But she really needs a place to go, she has to leave her apartment when she found out her boyfriend, she was living with got another girl pregnant."
"That sucks."
"Exactly. And now with this pandemic people are scrambling for a place to stay, can't she stay with you?"
"I suppose," he replied. He would rather not, he felt it would be better to live with a guy then having to watch how he behaves around a woman all day, every day. But Katie was family and she was in a desperate situation, so he agreed to it. "You can tell her she could come by any time to move in."
"She's already on her way. She left his apartment half an hour ago and should be there soon."
With that she hung up quickly before he could say anything else. He thought he would have a few extra hours to get his apartment ready for a woman to live in, but now he was on short notice so all he could do for now was do the dishes quickly before she finally arrived.
When Katie arrived, he helped bring up three suitcases and six boxes that she had crammed into her car. She didn't have any furniture, because it was her ex-boyfriends' apartment she had moved in, so it was just some stuff she was able to pack up easily. She felt fortunate that she had a cousin with an extra bedroom with a bed and a dresser that was left over from a previous tenant.
They got everything set up in her room within the hour. He even helped her setup her computer with the internet and her webcam. She was a yoga and aerobics teacher, but those places were now shut down so a friend of hers set her up with an online company where she would be teaching yoga and aerobics online.
"Thanks for doing this," she said. "I know it was short notice, and I know your mother didn't give you much time to tell you I was coming, so I really appreciate you doing this."
"No problem," Danny replied. "I'm just glad I get to have some company during this lockdown."
"I feel the same way. I had nobody else to move in with and it was either my car or moving back home and that was a tough choice. So, I'm really happy to be here."
With that she gave him a big hug, pressing herself very close to Danny's body. For a moment he enjoyed the feeling then quickly pushed that thought away and cursed himself in his mind for having a thought like that about his cousin. But he couldn't resist, she was a few years younger than him, about 26, she had dirty blond hair, had a slim athletic body, a good size ass and from what he could tell c-cups breasts that were on the line of being d-cups. But despite that he wasn't going to be that kind of guy that pervs on his own cousin so he decided to make sure that during her time in his apartment he was going to behave accordingly with her.
They had lunch and watched some TV then went out a little to the local stores to get whatever food and supplies they could get before it ran out. They managed to get the last 12pack of the good kind of toilet paper before it was gone, and they almost had to fight off a crazy woman who was going after it herself. After that they were ready for a good long period of being stuck in their small apartment together.
The first few weeks went fine, they mostly stayed out of each other's way as Danny did his work on his computer in his room that was connected to his company's private network. And Katie was in her room mostly on the webcam teaching her yoga classes and aerobics classes. They didn't see each other much during the day, except when running into each other on their breaks when going to the kitchen or on the way to the bathroom. Then would see each other the most in the morning for breakfast, or in the evening when they were finished working to have dinner and binge watch something on TV.
It was all going fine, but a problem started to form between the two of them one evening when they met for dinner. Katie, who was a decent cook, usually made them something to eat for dinner. Danny told her she didn't have to cook for him that much, but she said it was no problem and also, she enjoyed cooking. Danny sometimes made dinner for them, but never as good as Katie's meals.
"This looks good," said Danny. "Thanks again for making these dinners.
"It's no problem. With this pandemic going on I felt it was a good time to try some new recipes," she replied.
As they ate their dinner and made small talk, Danny's eyes noticed something very noticeable about Katie; two noticeable somethings to be exact. She was wearing a tight white t-shirt with a band logo on it, and it was very clear that she was wearing no bra as her nipples were poking hard through her shirt. The shirt was also a little low cut so it showed some cleavage on top as well.
"My eyes are up here buddy," said Katie as she pointed to her eyes.
"Oh, I'm so sorry... I don't know why I did that," he said quite embarrassed.
"It's ok, I figured you might notice."
She began to tell him how after she finished online yoga classes and took off her sports bra to change into some casual clothes and found herself picking out a bra to wear. That's when she realized that she wasn't going anywhere these days and took the opportunity to just go without wearing a bra. She said that she felt that if she was going to be staying in that apartment, she needed to start feeling more comfortable living there and that included not having to wear a bra when she didn't have to.
"I figured we're both adults, you can handle it if when I'm dressing down casually, I'm going to be relaxed in how I dress myself."
"I guess that makes sense, you need to feel comfortable living here," Danny replied.
"But at the same time, if I'm going to stop wearing bras around here, for your sake I'll top wearing tight shirts that reveal my tits too much."
"That's probably for the best," said Danny. "You may be my cousin, but I'm not going to concentrate much if you dress like that."
"And I honestly don't blame you," she said with a giggle. "Even after I caught you looking, you still can't stop looking at my tits."
"Damn it, sorry."
