Chapter 5: Awkward
1102 Words
Smoothing her shirt carefully over her legs she glanced sideways at me. I could see that she was blushing furiously. I realized that for the last hour or so despite our tempestuous and totally intimate performance, neither of us had spoken to the other or acknowledged what was taking place. We were in a difficult position. Did we admit what we had been doing or did we pretend like nothing happened? I could see that Gretta was struggling with the same questions. Even if we wanted to talk about it, how could we bring the subject up decently?
You know…" she began and then fell silent.
What"?
This is..."
Awkward?"
I guess you could say that…I was having a hard time sleeping so I went in to watch TV…and um, I was flipping through the channels…but there wasn't anything on really…so I wound up watching that thing we were watching earlier…"
What thing?"
You know" she was actually stammering and her blush deepened from a dark shade of rose to almost beet red, "That, that, um that thing …uh with the brother and sister…." Her voice trailed off, "They must show it more than once" she finished, somewhat inconclusively.
The silence hung like a heavy weight between us.
It's so sick!" she blurted suddenly.
Really? I thought it was kind of hot, in a perverted way."
Did you?" she whispered, glancing at me momentarily and then dropping her eyes again, "I guess I did too" she replied in an almost inaudible voice.
Anyway", she said, looking back up at me, "When I came back in our room, you were asleep and I kind of let the show get to me."
In what way?"
I don't really know…" she trailed off and then continued, "I just had a really disturbing dream and I don't feel like going back to sleep right now."
A dream?"
Yeah, a really vivid dream and we were um, well we were like uh acting out…sexually."
Together?"
Yeah" she said, licking her lips and swallowing hard.
What were we doing?"
Well, you know how dreams are, I can't really remember, but I thought if maybe we both were to watch the program again we could sort of laugh at it and um, get out of our system…so to speak."
You mean go back in and watch the entire thing together?"
She nodded her head sending her hair flying.
I don't know" I said doubtfully, "To be honest with you, I had a pretty disturbing dream myself along the same lines, I'm afraid I might embarrass myself if I sat and watched it with you."
Embarrass yourself?", she asked, looking at me sharply. This time it was my turn to blush, "You know, get a hard on or something." I muttered.
Standing up she held her hand out to me. "I promise I won't make a big deal out of it if you get a little excited" she said, "I might as well admit, it got to me too, that's why I want to watch it together, so we can sort of face it, you know, put it behind us."
I took her soft hand and she gently pulled me to my feet. My erection had faded quite a bit, but my member was still somewhat enlarged and I know she couldn't help but notice the swollen bulge. I was right. Glancing at my crotch, she smiled a little and said, "It looks like it still may be getting to you."
That's not fair."
OK, OK, I promise, no more cracks about certain enlarged parts." And taking my hand she led the way into the next room.
We walked into the other room and sat down on the couch. Gretta fiddled with the TV controller and after looking at the electronic menu said, "It'll be on in ten minutes. I wonder if we can get anything from room service? I'm kind of hungry.
I picked up the phone and punched the proper number in. "What do you feel like?" I asked.
Maybe a salad" she said and then furrowing her brow she asked, "I wonder if we can get some wine?"
I don't know what the law is in Colorado, but I think you've got to be 21"
She looked at me quizzically; "Do you really think they're going to ask for ID?"
This was a side of my sister I had never seen. Usually she's so correct in her behavior that being with her is almost as bad as being with our parents/ "Maybe not" I said and gave our order to the voice on the other end of the phone.
As we sat waiting I looked over at her, She appeared lovelier than ever with her blonde hair cascading over the slight swell her breasts made in my old T-shirt. Her long smooth legs were almost entirely exposed by the short shirt she was wearing as bedclothes. I couldn't help but think about what the shirt covered and I felt a responsive tingle warm me.
She must have seen me looking at her, because she tugged futilely at the hem of the shirt trying to smooth it down over her perfect thighs. This worked for about two seconds until she moved or even turned her head and then it rode up again.
I hope I'm not making you uncomfortable." I said.
She looked quickly over at me and replied "Not at all, as a matter of fact I like being looked at."
You do?"
All girls do" she said smiling, "Maybe not from their brothers, but I guess this is a special circumstance."
I know she saw my puzzled expression and before I had a chance to ask her what she meant by that statement she continued.
I mean, we're a thousand miles away from home stuck in a hotel with nothing to do but keep each other entertained and I don't think this situation is ever going to repeat itself….so"
I could see she was blushing again and I stepped in to help.
So maybe we can go a little crazy?"
Yeah" she said smiling, "Maybe we can go a little crazy."
I looked at her and she looked back smiling.
You know what I mean David. We drink a little wine, watch some TV that we'd never watch together back home. We can open up a little, talk, you know, relate to each other not just as a brother and sister, but as a guy and a girl, get to know each a little better."
Maybe tell a couple of secrets?"
Now you're getting the idea."
