In the past, Valentine's Day between my big brother and me had been celebrated rather simply, with just an exchange of greeting cards and perhaps a hug.
In 2006, however, Valentine's Day would have a much more intimate significance for us both, as for the first time on this particular day, my big brother was also my dearest lover.
Since before Halloween, I had been considering how to make Valentine's Day a very special one, a day which we would remember for millennia to come. Unfortunately, Valentine's Day was on a Tuesday, which meant that if we wanted to spend an entire day alone, we would need to skip all our classes that day and also call off from work.
However, we decided that we should indeed take the entire day off, as it was our first Valentine's Day together as a young couple deeply and madly in love. Thinking fondly of our wonderful and memorable end-of-semester celebration in December, I suggested that we return to the same hotel near Little Tokyo, and β not surprisingly β my big brother wholeheartedly agreed and announced that he would make the appropriate arrangements.
Neither of us had to suggest it: We both instinctively knew that I would be bound and beaten again for Valentine's Day. Instead of studying, I actually sat at my desk on several occasions, masturbating to thoughts of restraint and pain, imagining the exposed forbidden phallus pulsing strongly and menacingly before me in reaction to my struggles and my cries. When I should have been writing short opinion papers for a class, I was instead scouring the Internet for stories or video clips or sound files featuring young female slaves being teased and tormented while in various forms of restraint.
Thinking ahead to the upcoming visit to the hotel, however, we would not have just one evening together. This time, I would be at my domineering twin's mercy for at least an entire day, and I was desperately looking forward to that experience.
As the big day approached, we chatted about the upcoming experience more and more. In bed, my big brother would cuddle me, touching me lovingly while whispering into my ear how he would enjoy seeing me bound again before him, fighting the bonds as he alternated between giving me pain and giving me pleasure, making me cry out for more of each. And as I drifted off to sleep, my mind would be filled of those very same images, and there was almost certainly a smile upon my face as slumber at last overtook me.
The big question which had been gnawing at the back of my mind for months, however, was what gift I could possibly give to my big brother that he would truly appreciate and which would be a significant symbol of our deepening relationship. I had already given him my heart, which he cherished with every touch, every glance. I had already given him my body, which he claimed almost daily to the unbridled delight of us both. I had even already given him one of my thongs, which was still mounted like a trophy on the wall of his bedroom.
What more could I possibly give him?
At last, the idea came to me. I went online, spent some time searching for the right place, made a number of phone calls to compare services and prices, and eagerly scheduled an appointment.

We both returned from our respective colleges to the apartment at the same time, stepping off different cars of the same BART train and grinning knowingly to each other as we ascended the stairs to the street level. Once safely inside our apartment, we kissed eagerly, a kiss which hinted at the mini-vacation ahead.
My big brother finished his packing while I made dinner: salad and leftover pizza. We ate somewhat quickly, my bare feet nestled in his lap. While he washed and put away the dishes, I completed the last of my packing. With one final hug and his kiss to my forehead, we embarked.
When we at last emerged from underground, nighttime had definitely fallen upon San Francisco, and the city lights looked rather pretty. Love was certainly in the air, quite noticeable by the Valentine's Day advertisements in the store windows and the greater-than-usual number of couples holding hands or β in the case of a young teenage couple two rows in front of us on the bus to Little Tokyo β making out without shame. I wished desperately that I could have kissed my big brother at that moment or simply held his hand, but I contented myself with pressing my thigh against his as I looked out the window.
We stepped off the bus at last. Recognizing the neighborhood, it was easy to find our way to the hotel. And just as we were about to enter the hotel, my big brother stopped me with a hand on my shoulder.
"You remember the safeword and the safesound we agreed upon, right?" he asked, his tone serious for once.
"Yes," I replied with a nod, my tone equally serious. "'Hentai' and the sound of a siren."
"Good. Now, once we step into the hotel, I am no longer your big brother and you are no longer my baby sister β at least, not until we return home on Wednesday."
I nodded again. "I am your slave and you are my Master. I am yours to command and use as you see fit."
"That's right. Are you ready for this, baby sister?"
I smiled. Despite the deep love and the intense trust I felt for him, despite our previous experience with BDSM, I was a little nervous, which somewhat surprised me. I nodded.
"I'm ready for this, big brother. I'm ready to be your slave. I
want
to be your slave."
"Okay, then." He held the door open for me, and I stepped into the hotel, and thus, at last, I stepped into my eagerly-anticipated role.

I was amazed to be standing in the exact same room my big brother β my Master β and I had shared at the hotel for our end-of-semester mini-vacation. Everything was the same with the exception of the television set, which now had a built-in DVD player. "We could go to that video store in Little Tokyo and buy some anime to watch," I suggested, "perhaps some tentacle-sex hentai."
"I think I'd rather watch you," my Master replied with a lecherous smile, "especially as you struggle for me."
We did not engage in bondage play immediately. Instead, my Master sat in one of the chairs at the table, and I sat in his lap, facing him. If we were not wearing clothes, it would have been a nice position for slowly making love to him, or to simply have him filling me, each of us calmly motionless, as we held each other. Instead, we shared numerous kisses as our hands explored each other, as if we were two young teens each exploring the opposite sex for the very first time. Despite the intimate familiarity inherent with our relationship, it added a sense of (false) innocence to the loving atmosphere within our hotel room.
"Stand," he finally instructed me, and I reluctantly complied, standing beside him. I wore a black skirt, baby blue blouse, white bra and thong, white low socks, and baby blue tennis shoes. My only other adornments were the usual small hoop earrings.
"Strip."
That command I fulfilled eagerly, although it took a lot of willpower to prevent myself from smiling with anticipation and ripping the clothes from my own bodt as I complied. I felt proud that my own twin brother β my Master β found my body so attractive, proud that my Master lusted for me, proud that my Master would ultimately use me for his own pleasure.
