There was a distant sound of a door opening in the apartment but Tabitha was oblivious to everything apart from the mouth devouring her so sensually.

Hey Tabs…?

The voice was accompanied by a sudden onrush of light. Shane and Tabitha jumped apart, caught like rabbits in car headlights. Tabitha stilled her racing heart and turned to the voice; Will was standing outside his bedroom, dressed only in boxers and rubbing his eyes tiredly.

Will! What are you doing up?! Tabitha cried out, her voice a tad deeper than usual.

Will opened his eyes properly as they adjusted to the light and saw his sister, cheeks flushed and looking more shocked than when when shed accidentally put on one of his ***** dvds instead of Cold Mountain. His gaze travelled to the heap of clothes on the floor and a hand desperately trying to grab them from behind the kichen counter.

I thought I heard you come in, then you went out, then you came in again. I was jjust checking everything was ok. And I also need a slash. he admitted, a smile spreading over his lips as he moved subtly towards the bathroom.

Just act as though Im not here. he said, winking at Tabitha before disappearing into the bathroom.

Oh my God Shane Im so sorry!

Tabtiha looked down at the flustered brunette clambering around on the floor to pull her damp clothes back on. Tabitha smiled and bent down, covering Shanes hands to still them. Shane was still breathing hard and met Tabithas eyes, a confused and hurt expression mirrored them again.

Who the ***** was that Tabitha! Who else are you hiding in here, some more children, another husband?! Shane hissed, trying to keep her voice down but tears choked her words making them louder than she intended.

No no Shane, that’s my little brother, hes staying with me until he gets a job. He helps me look after Ella when I want to go out with you, or go to work. Theres no one else here, I promise. Tabitha said as soothingly as she could, stroking Shanes cheek softly.
