Several months had passed since our vacation. The holidays were setting upon us, and things were quite hectic. My thoughts have been consumed with my sister Karen ever since I last saw her. Sex with my Mary, my wife has never been hotter, but Iâm ashamed to admit that I believe itâs because of what happened between Karen and I. I worry that what happened between us would be found out by my wife or Karenâs husband Tom, destroying my home life, and my sisterâs as well. I donât believe my sister would ever say anything, and I know I never would, but the thought still haunts me. Some days I feel that what happened between us should never have happened, and Iâm wrought with guilt because of it. Other days however, itâs all I can think about, and I ache for when we can be alone together again.
It was just about two weeks or so before the holidays when my sister Karen had called my wife and told her that they would be coming for the holidays. I wasnât sure how I felt when my wife told me the news, but I knew it was all I would be thinking about until they got here.
I wondered if Karen and Tomâs decision to spend the holidays with our family had anything to do with what happened. After all, weâve never spent the holidays together, and I was sure that Karen was behind this decision, which made me even more anxious.
Finally the day came when my sister Karen, her husband Tom, and their two children, Michael and Lynne were expected to arrive. My wife had been getting the house ready for the entire week, right up until the very moment they arrived. It was my last day of work before my vacation, so I was able to leave early and give her a hand. It also allowed me to be there to greet my sister and her family when they finally did arrive. I must have jerked off five times in the last few days thinking about my sister.
They showed up just passed four, and it seemed like total anarchy from the moment they got there. The kids were running and playing, and Tom and I were trying to unload all of the gifts from his car without them seeing us. By the time they had settled in, I was exhausted. On the bright side however, I had been so pre-occupied, that I barely had time to think about Karen and I. Her and Mary spent most of the afternoon in the kitchen, and yelling at the kids when they acted up.
Later that night, after we all had dinner and put the kids to bed, the four of us settled into the living room with some cocktails. I may have just been imagining it, but it seemed as though barely even made eye contact all evening. I donât know if it was intentional, but it seemed as though we barely even said more than a few words to each other. My mind raced as I tried to imagine what she was thinking while trying to stay focused on the conversation.
After sometime, I realized that I had a few too many drinks in me and was feeling no pain. My wife announced that she was going to bed, and I said that I would straighten up and join her shortly, in hopes that Karen would take the hint and we could spend some time to talk alone. Instead, Karen and Tom both went to bed, leaving me to straighten up by myself.
I laid awake in bed, as my wife slept soundly next to me, trying to figure out what was going through Karenâs mind. I got up to use the bathroom, and heard noises coming from the kitchen, so I went downstairs to investigate. I was pleasantly surprised to find Karen nursing a glass of water at the table. It was almost as if she was expecting me when I walked in.
âHey bro. Come have a seat.â
âHey.â
I sat down across from her and took a second to absorb her beauty.
âSoâ I said, trying to act cool, âWhatâs new?â
She smiled. âNothing, whatâs new with you?â
âNothing really. So this is a nice change, us spending the holidays together. What made you guys decide to join us this year.â
She giggled, and her eyes seemed to sparkle as she squinted at me.
âWell, it seems as though Tomâs family had a change of plans this year, so he suggested that we spend the holidays with you and Mary.â
âI see. So it was Tomâs idea?â
She chuckled again. âYes it was. Naturally I thought it was a good idea, so I called your wife as soon as we decided.â
âHmm. Well Iâm really glad you guys could come. It should be a lot of fun. I canât remember the last time we celebrated Christmas together.â
âYea, it has been a long time.â
Karen casually sipped her water, not taking her eyes off of me, while I pretended to be completely casual, looking around the room. We sat in silence for a few seconds, both avoiding pointing out âthe pink elephant in the middle of the roomâ.
Finally I decided that I had enough and decided to just put the cards out on the table.
âI guess itâs just a bit strange.â
âOh yea? And whatâs that?â
âWell I just thought it was a bit odd that in all these years weâve never spent the holidays together, and well this year Tomâs family just happened to change their plans. And it was Tomâs idea you say?â
âWhat are you getting at little brother?â
âCâmon Karen! You know what Iâm saying here. Are you sure this little change of plans had nothing to do with me?â
âWhy ever would you think that?â
I just looked at her while she smiled and pretended to know nothing about what I was talking about.
