I came with the idea of writing this new series because of my busy work schedule that I'm being bombarded with for the past few months now. Don't worry, I'm not abandoning 'My Mom and Sisters are my Nurses' at all, I still am working on it as much as I can.
This series will contain shorter chapters, usually one to three pages each. Now the real difference lies at the end of each chapter. I wanted to try something new and so far I haven't seen anybody else do this. At the end of each chapter you, the reader, will be presented with a choice on how the next chapter will continue. Usually it's choice A or B but I might add additional choices on other chapters.
It gives the community a little more of an interactive approach to my stories and I wonder if you guys and gals will enjoy something like this.
Without further ado, here is chapter one of A Sibling Survival Story, it's more of an introduction chapter so don't expect any hardcore stuff right off the bat.

"Jesus Christ Mom! Do I have to babysit him literally everywhere? Ben can do things on his own too you know? He isn't ten anymore!"
"Kaitlin please... It's only for today, once we are off the boat and at our hotel you can do whatever you want. Gosh, I really wonder what happened to you these last few years, when you were younger we always had to pull you two apart."
"Maybe that's because people grow up Mom! I'm fairly sure that Ben has his own interests now, just like I have my own!"
Ben sighed and threw himself into the conversation between his older sister and mother. "Just chill Kait, why don't we grab some drinks and go from there. I can legally drink here so why not enjoy it while we can, without getting shitfaced of course."
In the meantime, their father returned with the keys for their rooms and joined his wife's side. "Still going with this you two?" He asked before handing over the keys to his son and daughter. "Just get along this day would you? Your mother and I are going to get some sun on the outside deck so I would take that suggestion Ben spoke off."
"But Dad!" Responded Kaitlin loudly.
"No but's Kaitlin, for once can you not rebel against everything and just enjoy the start of your vacation? You brother is going with you and that's final!" Answered their father with a sterner voice.
"Ugh! Fine! Come on Ben, let's grab those drinks, and I'm not so sure about not getting shitfaced anymore!" Said Kaitlin with an aggressive tone and walked off.
Ben shook his head and followed his sister with a steady pace.
Their parents watched them off before they started to laugh. "She really is just like you when you were younger darling... Daddy's little girl."
"Glad that I outgrew that period rather fast, thanks to a certain someone standing close to me..."
They then shared a short, but passionate kiss before going outside.
All the commotion had attracted the attention of a couple on the other side of the ship who were still closely following the two siblings.
"I think that we have you our targets... Let's get to work, shall we?"

Kaitlin and Benjamin Collins weren't always acting like they had now. They always were close together when they were younger, some might even say too close as they literally did and shared everything together. From hobbies to sports, to personal interests and tastes, they always were on the same line.
It all suddenly changed when Benjamin turned eighteen, Kaitlin became more and more distant to him as they grew older. Now at the ages of twenty and twenty-two they pretty much remained the same. Ben still has no idea what triggered his sister's drastic change of personality, was it something he did in the past? Or has Kaitlin her own personal reasons for trying to avoid her younger brother as much as possible?
Ben was determined to find out the reason behind it, and this very vacation they were on would reveal everything to him in the end.

"H....y w...k..e u... B....n! C...m..e o...n!"
Ben could vaguely hear a voice speaking to him as he tried to decipher the words that came from said voice. He noticed that he had trouble to come to his senses, he felt like he had been hit by a freight train head-on. Slowly he managed to open his eyes slightly, his hearing came back as well.
"Come on Ben! Wake up goddamnit!"
The same repeating words came from his very own sister, she was poking his face and shaking his body. Her words were chaotic and she sounded... Scared? When he opened his eyes further he was greeted with her flushed face, her dark-red colored ponytail swung from side to side and her light freckles lit up thanks to the bright light that surrounded them, Ben had to admit, his sister turned into a cute and attractive woman after reaching adulthood.
As his hearing returned further he was greeted with the ambience of their surroundings, he could hear waves quietly crashing together and sea-gulls chirping away high above them. Of course his sister's voice was the loudest of them all.
"K-Kait?" He mumbled as he felt her arms pulling him up into a sitting position. "Holy shit, it feels like somebody knocked me out, or somebody spiked our drinks with some very special stuff!"
"Seriously? The first think you do after waking up is making jokes?" Asked Kaitlin slightly annoyed.
Ben noticed that her voice changed, it became softer, meaning that she had calmed down a little. "No really, what the hell happened to me... To us I guess, where are we? And are you okay too Kait?" Asked Ben.
"I have no idea; I woke up like twenty minutes ago next to you. It took me about ten minutes to get rid of the feeling and dizziness that you probably are going through now. After that I... I stayed with you, waiting for you to wake up." Spoke Kaitlin quietly as she scanned her eyes across the beach.
Ben reached her hand with his own and held his sister, he could feel her body reacting to him as their hands came together. "Thanks for looking after me Sis, I appreciate it."
