Aaron lay awake on the couch in the morning while he waited for Stephen to return. He stared blankly at the spinning ceiling fan as he ruminated over the activities of last night. He knew from high school that Kristy was a fun and attractive girl and he was attracted to her, but she was his stepsister now. He had told himself repeatedly that he could not act on his impulses since it would be considered wrong and could jeopardize his father's chances at happiness, but when the time came, he couldn't even hold out one single day. Not one single lousy day went by, and he was already in bed with her. What was wrong with him? He was relatively drunk at that point, but he still should have known better. He should have put a stop to everything once Kristy started touching him. Somehow, he couldn't control himself, there was something about her that drove him absolutely wild, even more so than when he knew her in high school, and he couldn't stop himself from letting things get out of hand.
Furthermore, there was the fact that Kristy obviously kept herself relatively chaste otherwise and yet was so willing to initiate their sexual activities almost immediately. The comments she made led him to a theory that he shuddered to think about.
Aaron heard the door unlock, and closed his eyes while pretending to sleep as Stephen walked in. As Stephen entered, Aaron feigned to yawn and pretended to wake up.
"Hey man, what's up?" Stephen asked as he entered.
"Hey, hope you had fun last night," Aaron responded.
"Sure did. So, how about you, you get any action last night?"
This question caught Aaron off guard. He almost instinctively said yes, and then realized that would be a terrible idea.
"Well?"
"Oh, uh, no, no I didn't. I didn't want to leave Kristy alone to fend for herself; there were some belligerent drunks there and I didn't want to leave her unprotected." Aaron almost winced for a moment at the word "unprotected." Poor choice of words.
"Oh, right, good call! Shit, I'm sorry, I didn't even think about that. Well, thanks for taking one for the team, the next time the three of us go out I'll stay with her so you can get some action."
Aaron laughed and thanked him as Stephen went to his room.
After the events of last night and the comments she made, Aaron knew he had to confront the possibility of a horrifying theory. He reluctantly began to consider if Kristy's instant eagerness to take him to bed had something to do with some sort of desire she secretly harbored for Stephen, and she used Aaron to take his place now that he was technically her brother as well. It certainly made sense, the comment about "keeping it tight" for him, calling him brother all the time, and being so casual with Stephen when they were out. The thought of her harboring those desires made him squeamish, but then he felt bile start to rise in his throat as he began to wonder if the two had ever sexually experimented before. He didn't think it was likely, as Stephen seemed to be disgusted whenever Kristy would be flirty, wear provocative clothing, or talk about sex, leading Aaron to think it must be a one way deal.
As Aaron thought further, however, he realized that there was also a possibility that the two of them may have fooled around when they were younger, and Stephen feels a great deal of shame about it which causes him to react to her in that way. Based on Kristy's comments, however, that seemed unlikely -- if he were one of the two poorly endowed guys Kristy had been with previously, she probably wouldn't be fantasizing about him when she was fucking Aaron.
Later in the afternoon, Kristy left to go to summer class and Stephen went to a job interview (which made Aaron sadly realize he needed to start looking for a job too). Aaron had to get some sort of answers about his suspicions, and there was only one way to do that. He walked back up to her room (which, he justified, should rightfully be his room) and opened up her laptop. He hated sneaking around and invading her privacy, but he had to know the answer or else the possibilities would destroy his mind.
The computer prompted a password for unlock. Aaron had a good idea what the password was.
He entered the word:
S-t-e-p-h-e-n
Bingo. Access granted. Aaron thought that should probably be proof enough there, but he decided to check her internet history to see if there was any clues. He looked down the screen.
"Let's see...Google, Yahoo, Reddit, YouTube, fashion tips...." he mused out loud as he continued scrolling.
Then he saw it. A search for "brother/sister Incest stories." He felt like there was a dagger through his heart. Kristy had searched for the terms "brother/sister," "incest," "taboo," and "brother sister creampie," resulting in a series of erotic stories and porn videos containing those things. These searches went back to a time period well before their parents had started dating.
Aaron closed the laptop, put it back in its place, and sighed while looking at the floor. He had almost undeniable proof that the reason Kristy was so eager to take him to bed within the first day of knowing each other as stepsiblings had little to do with him and more to do with her expressing her feelings towards Stephen. He had thought they had shared something special, but she was only using him as a stand-in for her repressed incestuous desires. He was dealing with someone who had severe emotional issues, and he had taken advantage of her.
Aaron went downstairs and paced around the house, contemplating the situation. His initial feelings of guilt and pity slowly turned towards rage. He felt cheated that she used him as a stand-in for Stephen. He was a star in college; girls at Pitt always told him that before they slept with him they would fantasize about him when they were with other partners. Girls weren't supposed to fantasize about other people when Aaron was making love to them -- and they sure as hell weren't supposed to use him to fantasize about their own damn brother!
Aaron resolved never to sleep with her again, no matter how electric and pure their lovemaking felt.
Still, he thought, couldn't deny their chemistry, and he began to think back to the previous night and how wonderful it felt. He couldn't stop thinking about how amazing she felt as he was inside her.
Aaron started to reconsider his position. What if he was doing her a good service? Her (most likely) unrequited feelings towards her biological brother were totally wrong, and maybe as a non-biologically related stepbrother he could help her get over them. Over the course of the next few hours, he got over his guilt, jealousy, and rage and resolved that this was the right course of action. He figured that he was actually helping her out with her complicated emotional issues and doing a good service. There was nothing technically wrong with the two of them having sex, and why would Aaron turn down an opportunity to be altruistic while at the same time sleeping with a girl that he was crazy for?
