Authors note: Thank you guys for the support on this series, it's been really good to see from my point of view that people are discussing the story. Let me know how you predict it might go if you're good at that sort of thing. Also I am aware that some spelling mistakes were made in the last post. This was due to how little time I had to write it. All I can say is I'm doing my best and hopefully I'll have an editor soon. Thanks guys.
CHAPTER 6
"You don't have to like her... but she's family and we aren't going to leave her out on the street!" Rebecca argued with Jennifer.
"Why not? They wouldn't do it for us?" Jennifer narrowed her eyes at the thought of that side of their family.
"Because we are better than that, that's why."
Nick watched as his two sisters fought over their new guest. Rebecca didn't know Jessica like he did. She was the bitch of all bitches and she had been the stereotypical stuck up Prom Queen last year. Nick, being similar ages to Jessica, was around her more often at school. She had all her friends on strings, and all the boys too for that matter.
Her parents were extremely rich and for her to come and live with them, would be like Nick getting down with the neighbours dogs for a night. She had a way about her too, the way she walked and talked, it was as if she truly believed you were below her. Of course she was indeed extremely pretty and she had a young, rocking hot body that Nick's friends never failed to let him know about.
"I will have no part in parenting her, she is more of a child than Nick is!" Jennifer yelled.
"Hey!?" Nick felt slightly offended.
"We won't have to parent her, she is nineteen! She can do what ever she likes, as long as it doesn't disrupt our lives!"
Nick had never seen Rebecca look so mad. He couldn't help but think she looked kinda hot when she was this angry. The way her nostrils flared and her hair went messy as if by static.
"I think you're just threatened by her." Nick smirked.
Jennifer shot him a look that would have scared him before, now it only excited him.
"Threatened?... Please." She tutted.
"Makes sense doesn't it, you're angry about it aren't you?... Worried she'll take your throne?" He did his best to hold in his giggling.
Rebecca gave him a look, as if to say; 'Not now, Nick.'
"I do not have a throne... But if I did, she'd be below my feet, kissing them!"
Jennifer was scary when she got going.
"Just stay out of her way if she bothers you so much." Rebecca said.
"It's not just her that's my problem, it's another mouth to feed isn't it, and for how long? Two weeks...three? maybe four!? It's money out my pocket, not yours." Jennifer's fists were now clenched.
"She has nowhere to go! Don't you get it? She is on her own. She might be stuck up and she might be rude but can you guess why that is? Her parents don't care! They do not care for where she is or what's she's doing. I don't blame her for turning out the way she has."
Nick really admired how mature Rebecca was. Jennifer despite being five years older than her, relied a lot more on instinct and her impulses, rather than cognitive thought.
Jennifer knew she was right, she just didn't like the situation and she was doing what she always did. Complaining when things didn't go her way.
Nick thought Jessica was much like Jennifer, just a younger version. He didn't dare speak his mind on that one though.
The three of their heads turned when the front door slammed shut. Jessica almost skipped into the kitchen, holding about a dozen designer bags over her wrists. Unaware of the fight they had just been having.
"What's going on here?" She smiled, as if pretending to care.
"We were just discussing your sleeping arrangements." Rebecca smiled.
"You've in the basement." Jennifer blurted out.
"Jennifer!" Rebecca yelled.
"Oh that's okay, I didn't mind."
Jessica saw girls like Jennifer at college all the time, she knew not to allow Jennifer to get to her.
"You won't be sleeping in the basement, so don't worry. You'll be sleeping in my room." Rebecca's smile twitched.
"Your room? I don't mind the basement." She grimaced.
Rebecca sighed. "The basement is dark, damp and full of crawling spiders. If you wish to sleep down there, you can."
With that Rebecca took her shaker and left the room. She had now had enough of that conversation for one day. Jennifer looked down her nose at her inferior cousin, she chuffed and left.
"What was that all about?" Jessica said in her dumb, blonde girl voice.
"Oh that, they always do that." Nick couldn't meet her eye.
He didn't know why, it was the same with any girl that was super hot in his school. He could barely look at her without getting a little shy. You would think that living with two unbelievably hot woman would help in that department. It didn't.
"Hmm weird. So, do you wanna see what I bought in the sale?" She asked as she started to ruffle through her bags.
"Sorry, I've got homework to do." Nick excused himself.
He had no interest in seeing what she'd spent her fathers money on. In his mind, all he thought about was how hard it would be to see Rebecca in private with Jessica around. He felt a little down about this. He was enjoying his time with Rebecca and he didn't want that to stop anytime soon. He'd had a chance to think about how things were going and he'd come to terms with the guilt of his incest.
He crept around the door of Rebecca's room as she stood staring out her window.
"Hey." He smiled.
"Oh, it's you." She smiled back at him.
"Looks like we can't be seeing much of each other after all." Nick said as he stared at Jessica's bed that now sat in the corner of the room.
"Yeah, I suppose not..." She said.
"I have thought about things."
"And...?" She asked.
Nick took a quick glance over his shoulder, to make sure nobody was around.
"And... I've decided it shouldn't matter if we are brother and sister. You've always been there for me and I couldn't think of anyone better to be doing this with." He smiled.
Rebecca smiled back at him, she hugged him tightly and as she was welling up with emotion. She did a good job to suppress it as Jessica walked into the room behind Nick. Nick stepped out of his hug with Rebecca when he felt her presence.
"Aw that's so cute you guys!" Jessica said in a patronising voice.
"What do you want?" Nick hissed.
"I just came to say, I don't want to intrude," she looked about Rebecca's room as if she was already in the basement, "but I think I'm just going to sleep on the couch. This way I have the TV at night."
"Sure, I can fetch some pillows and blankets for you later on." Rebecca sighed.
"Okay, Thanks!" Jessica smiled broadly before leaving.
