Let's make this meeting quick
, she had said to her brother.
You're going to take me out on a date right after
...
Over two hours later they were still stuck in the lunch meeting with one of their family attorneys, Phil Horowitz. A lean and lanky man in his late-50s, he possessed the perfect gift of being able to speak continuously, non-stop, barely pausing for breath. He had been droning on and on throughout the otherwise amazingly elaborate lunch they were having on the outdoor patio of Ocean Prime in Beverly Hills.
As Megan poked absently at a salt-dusted pat of butter, she was beginning to wonder just how many stabs it would take to kill this man with her butter knife. But then she glanced over and saw her brother looking at her. He was a mountain of patience. He could see her obvious frustration, and he gave her just the slightest of winks, reassuring her. She melted and smiled back at him. She did not think it could be possible to love her own brother so much, first as a sibling, and now as a lover. It energized her to the core. She turned back to the lawyer.
In fairness to Horowitz, what he was covering was indeed very important information. Jason and Megan's mother was leaving behind a very substantial estate. It had actually been their father, who'd died years before, who had built up the portfolio he had left to his wife, who was now leaving it to her kids. Vast real estate, stocks, bonds, annuities, the family trust, even something called "whole" life insurance...the siblings were about to inherit and absolute fortune. But fortunes were
complicated
.
Jason felt his heart flutter when his sister smiled at him, and he had to struggle to focus again on Horowitz. Of the two, Jason was definitely more of a nerd, and he fully understood everything being discussed. Megan was easily just as smart as him, but to her the subject matter was simply
boring
. Over the years she had been happy to let Jason work with his mom on maintaining the portfolio. It pleased her that her mother would never have to worry about money, and it pleased her even more that there was enough wealth in the family so that her daughter could also enjoy a secure future. She just didn't care how the sausage was made.
She glanced around at the high-end restaurant. It was just off of Wilshire Boulevard, only a couple of blocks from the infamous Rodeo Drive. Megan half-recognized more than a few moderate celebrities dining around her. Horowitz had picked the place, and neither sibling complained even though they knew that all this would be billed back to them eventually.
If she had to sit through hours of financial talk, at least they were eating well. And drinking. As if they hadn't learned their lesson from the night before, Megan and Jason were each near the bottom of a second glass of chardonnay from the bottle they'd split. Horowitz had only wrinkled his pointy nose when asked if he'd like a glass. Megan sipped the last of what had been her half of the wine, and she allowed herself a little frown into the bottom of the long-stemmed glass: there seemed to be a lot more meeting to be had, but no more booze to consume.
She was enjoying her midday buzz along with the still hotly simmering afterglow from all the sex she had been having over the last 18 hours or so. All the sex from her
brother
. Her beautiful brother Jason, her best friend in life, and now a true sexual partner. Just thinking about such a combination in a man caused a small portion of the fluids she and Jason had created inside her that morning to squirt slight into her already damp panties. She let a soft sigh escape her lips.
Jason moved his eyes from Horowitz to his sister again. The look on her face as she gazed into her empty wine glass was mesmerizing. It was plain to him that she was replaying their sexual antics in her mind, clearly spaced out against the never ending monologue by their attorney. Jason wished he could reminisce with her, but the legal stuff had to be completed. There would be time to have fun again soon enough.
She had asked him to take her on a date after this. His cock stiffened slightly in his pants at what kind of naughty fun they could get into on their date. But he mentally shook off further thought on this, as there were still the legal matters at hand.
After their waiter came over and asked "Is there anything else I can get you" for the third time, Horowitz himself came to realize that they meal was long over, and he had clearly overwhelmed his clients with a deluge of information. He said he would follow up later with an email recap of everything they had just discussed. The siblings exchanged a look--why hadn't he
just
sent the email instead!
Jason made a feint toward the check, but Horowitz predicably snatched it. "No, no, this is on me."
"Why thank you," Megan said, the fakest of smiles on her face. "How kind."
They knew that the attorney would simply add the total of the check and tip to the hours he'd already be billing them for his time today.
Horowitz stood, as did Jason. The two shook hands, and Horowitz also reached out and lightly took the fingers of Megan's outstretched hands. He had known their late mother far better than he knew them, but there was enough of an oddness to them today that he couldn't quite peg. With another nod at each of them, he gathered his briefcase and departed.
Jason plopped down in his seat again and blew air through his puffed cheeks. Megan simply smiled at him. She then reached for the empty bottle and held it up, raising her eyebrows.
"Yes," he said. "But not here."
With the bill having been settled by Horowitz, they just got up and left. Jason took his sister's hand as if they'd been dating for years. Just the feel of her brother's fingers intertwined with hers caused butterflies in her tummy. Having always been affectionate with each other, Megan had often held hands with Jason. But this was the first time they were doing it as
lovers
, and it made a difference.
She wondered what he had in mind for their date. Jason simply lead her along with a smile.
He decided to leave their car with the valet at Ocean Prime. By the time they got back it would have been long past the course of a normal meal, but he figured the valet wouldn't really care. Or, if he had to pay extra, no big deal. In their own rights, Jason and Megan were doing financially well. But as they were about to inherit their mother's fortune, they were now officially rich. They were newly rich, in the heart of Beverly Hills. Time to have some fun.
It was a quick walk to the Beverly Wilshire, one of the town's most iconic hotels, located at the top of the T-intersection where Wilshire Boulevard met Rodeo Drive. As they entered the lobby, Megan wondered if Jason was planning to get them a room. The thought of making love with him in a luxurious hotel where they shot
Pretty Woman
turned her on to no end, but she couldn't imagine how much even the cheapest of rooms might cost here. Unlike Jason, it hadn't quite hit Megan just how wealthy they had become since laying their mother to rest.
To her amused curiosity, Jason took her right past the front desk and then to the hotel bar. He got a kick out of ordering basically the same martinis they'd had the night before, only this time they were $32 each. Megan almost choked on her first sip when she saw the price of her drink, but then it finally hit her: they were loaded. Why not splurge a little!
