"Sure. Sure. That would be fine. Three months. Wow! Ok Nana....."
I was listening to Melinda on the phone as she talked to our grandma. Not exactly sure what the other end of the conversation was. I left the room to gather up some more of my stuff. I was moving, not exactly sure where. Melinda was still home, but I was just too stir crazy to stay home anymore and I had a friend who said I could stay there awhile. I needed to find a situation with like four roommates so I could afford rent but I wasn't waiting.
As I set a big box by the door, Melinda popped into the doorway. "That was Nana!"
"I knew that. And...." I reached for another box.
"Well, I think we have an answer." I looked at her uncomprehending. She was swinging herself back and forth, like a little girl, "Nana wants to go on a trip this summer, for THREE months, maybe four. She asked if I would like to stay and watch her house while she was gone."
"Why, is that an answer to OUR problem."
"Cause silly. I want out of this house as much as you do. You could stay there too. It would be FR-EE," she sing-songed that word to me. Free.
We were both totally broke, and even though Melinda stayed home she had to pay some rent. I was just there for a short while. And the deal was I had to move on.
I was thinking, nodding my head. "Ok." One of the things I wanted to do was get away from family, and well Melinda WAS still family - but damn, free.
She clapped her hands and ran from the room.
"All summer!"
********************
The house opened up in a week, we said our goodbyes to grandma at the door, and it took no time at all before Melinda and I settled right in. Melly took Nana's room on the second floor - I didn't care. I took the room I always stayed in when I was there. I loved this house, it was huge, lots of rooms. And Nana left tons of food in the freezer and said we could have it all. Was this real....
Those first days were sort of awkward for some reason, everything different. We were like adults now, playing house with one another. No one else around, just she and I. We weren't in school, no parents, we were both working; odd hours, weekends. Typical type jobs for our age, Melinda would turn 25 later this year.
She had so many clothes, compared to my two suitcases and a couple of boxes for music and stereo (which I did not need by the way), so I helped her carry her masses of stuff. One of the laundry baskets of hers I helped carry was filled with her panties. I walked in staring at the most amazing array of panties I'd ever seen, I could NOT help but look. Felt myself flush a little. Tiny, silk, all colors, see through, old, little fluffs and frill; and I could see words on some of them here and there. One was tipped into the pile, red - white lettering ‘It Ain't.....' Curious, I tugged on it a little, my eyes opening wide as I read - ‘It Ain't....... Going to Lick Itself,' across a the tiniest little triangle of fabric. God damn!
I felt myself turn a shade of red. I knew my sister - this was not her - she was this shy little girl. I had always thought of her that way. Innocent. But the last several years she had changed so much, she had blossomed into this simply breathtaking woman. She was so beautiful - really beautiful (did she not realize?); long wavy hair, beautiful green eyes, nice mouth. She had dimples, really a dimple on her left side when she smiled. Her eyebrows were these dark curves in combination with her big eyes, really pretty.
She was tall and thin, and at twenty four had filled out in the hips and thighs, god she had the most gorgeous pert ass. *Was I thinking that* But it had to be her best feature. No one's ass looked better in tight blue jeans. She had tan smooth skin, her hair longer than it had ever been, shiny, thick and soft, the color of honey. She had green eyes that were so bright, sparkling; and just a light spattering of freckles. God I did, I loved the way she looked now. I kept staring at those panties as I walked up the stairs.
But shy. She was so shy, not around everyone, she was NOT shy around me - not at all. We had lots of fun. Around her girlfriends she had a wonderful laugh, everything was funny. She always laughed at something, and if someone got hurt _Ha! - she so tended to laugh at inappropriate things that way. Like if she threw a ball at you, she might throw it really hard, and laugh uproariously as it bounced off you. Even so, I never could have imagined that THIS is what she wore under her clothes. These panties.
I was picturing her in them, seeing ‘It Ain't Going to Lick Itself' in my minds eye. Delicious. Couldn't help it...... when she suddenly appeared in the doorway, right in front of me.
I handed her the basket, "I brought these up."
She looked at the basket and then me, the one pair of panties laid out flat on top. She read, I saw her eyes widen, then look back at me. I smiled. I watched her turn a shade of red, "Uh, thanks."
She took the basket and I went back downstairs.
******************
Melinda was a baker, I think that's what it is. She made cakes, cupcakes, I think pastries. And when they are short of help pretty much everything else. And they always seemed short of help. So she worked really hard and came home bone tired. But she always came home with food. It was great. Saving still more money. And she loved food, it was always so good. Lots of times she had made it herself. Very particular about her food.
She especially loved soup and bread. Good bread. There was a difference. My schedule tended to be later than hers and so she was most always home when I got home. We really got into a regular routine and she usually waited for me to come home before she ate - so WE could eat together. She waited for me. It was , well, sweet. She was such a caretaker. I was liking her more and more as I got to know her as an ‘adult,' we playing house. God we were grown up now and it so felt like we were like this couple.
I got home earlier than usual. I work, also at a food place, but more like stocking shelves, ordering items, for an online delivery service. The computers went down and they sent us home. When I stepped into the house I called out, "Melinda."
No answer.
"Melly?" I was looking around. Her stuff was sitting by the door, I ran up the stairs and looked in her room. Her clothes were spread out on the bed, and I thought - oh, she's outside in the hot tub.
She loved the hot tub in this place. It was huge.
I went to my room since it was close and just peeked out the window to see, and there she was! She had actually just walked out there. I could see her in her little bikini, holding her towel over her arm, tossing her hair over her shoulder. It was still light out, the sun slanting through the trees so that the tub looked illuminated between shadows. I watched her, her long wavy hair, her small hands as she set the towel down by the side of the tub, illuminated with light.
Stunning! I kept watching. She was standing again, stretching out, arching her back - we look so different when we don't know we are being watched. I hadn't really looked at her, SEEN her, in a bikini. When she knew I was there I had always sort of averted my eyes, just seen her out the corner of my eye. But now....what I noticed was, what else, her great ass! Long legs and this wonderful pert ass' the curves of her, the wonderful flair of her narrow waist. Her breasts, they were small..... I was just watching her rise back up again....
When!!
I stepped back from the window, still looking down at her, my eyes riveted. She was reaching back with both arms. Holding her hands behind her back, and then leaning forward let her bikini top slide down her arms; as she leaned forward I could see the two little cups drop away from her bare breasts. My heart started to pound, I kept watching. Part of me thought that I better go back into the house, but.....I was frozen.
She was so casual, liquid, light, soft. It was a very private back yard. But still. Her breasts were like these drops clinging to the front of her. Beautiful, perfect little nipples. Not big at all, but god she looked so amazing, her hair fallen around her shoulders. Such little nipples, I loved looking at her. I could see her perfectly from where I stood. I wasn't more than 15 feet away looking down at her. She turned a little grasping her bikini bottoms and tugged them down her thighs, and then - her pussy came into view. I had NEVER seen my sisters pussy. I kept watching, could feel myself getting hard, my cock stiffening, rising in my jeans.
Those long legs, they seemed so much longer when she was naked. She had just this little wisp of dark hair right between her legs, almost no hair at all. She turned, her wonderful ass, before stepping down into the water.
The bubbles from the frothing tup obscured her naked form but I kept watching. I was not going to move anywhere. She kept looking toward the house. Checking. Settling herself into the tub. She reached back onto the wood decking and grabbed her top and bottoms tucking them underneath her towel; then settling herself into one of the corners, shifting around a bit, and lifting herself, positioning, gripping the sides of the tub. As I continued to watch....I realized what she was doing.
