I rolled my eyes as my momma got up to hug and kiss Aunt Catherine, her younger brother's wife. Aunt Catherine was an idiot, to put it easily. She let my cousin's Micah and Mariah run around crazy, doing as they pleased. They were a year younger than my 20 years, though they hadn't quite hit 19 yet. They stood behind their mother now, bored looks on their faces. Micah's eyes were following some blonde with incredibly fake breasts while Mariah stared out the window across from her.
For not yet 19 my cousins were doing good, I supposed. Mariah would be starting college in the fall and Micah... only god knew what he was going to be doing. He had taken a year off. Looking at them now I could see how their looks had changed over the years. Micah had suddenly sprung up to 6'3, a height no one thought he would get anywhere near, especially since Mariah was still 5'8 or 5'9, if she planned to grow anymore. Micah took after Uncle Jermaine in his looks. He had dark brown hair, corn rowed for now, brown skin and these interesting grey eyes that came from his momma. He was built, wide shoulders and muscles with a great ass that was clearly outlined in the suit style pants his mother had him in for the occasion.
Mariah had more of a mixture of the two. Like his sister, Uncle Jermaine had married white and not his own race. Mariah's skin was therefore a lighter color than her brothers, almost my own but a bit darker. She had huge deep brown eyes, almost black, and long past the middle of her back hair the same color as her brothers. She had on a dark blue sheath dress, short around the thighs and low cut around her chest so her chest and booty was looking good and these black stiletto sandals.
"Sanaa, say hi to your aunt." I jumped out of my train of thought and stood up to hug Aunt Catherine. It was my nana's birthday, my momma's momma. I was off from college for a week so Momma had me drive down so I could be here. I still had a week left before I would return to school, and I couldn't wait. Looking at Mariah, however, I was glad I had decided to dress as I did. I had worn a short low cut black dress with a pair of stiletto's I had borrowed from Nisi. My hair had been flat pressed so it hung almost as long as Mariah's. when I hugged her, she hugged me back and my momma embarrassed us both by saying how much we look alike and taking a half a roll of film of us. I turned and hugged Micah, who did a double take as if he had never seen me before. I knew he was out of it because of how his arms crossed behind my waist and his hands started to slide low before he stopped, suddenly remembering who I was I suppose. Not that I was complaining. It's not everyday I get almost felt up by someone as fine as my cousin.
Nana arrived soon after, coming in on my daddy's arm. We all clapped and kissed her as she rounded the table then sat in the middle of the bench on the other side. When I get to be her age I hope I look like her because she is one good looking old black woman. Hardly any sag anywhere on my nana. I smiled over at her, and she smiled back. Mariah sat across from me at the table, looking bored as usual. Micah was staring across the room while our parents and my Nana were conversing. Aunt Nicole was nana's oldest child but she couldn't make it this year, but no one minded. She was bitter about something she said my momma did to her way back when.
"So anyway mother," Aunt Catherine was saying to nana. "It's good of you to watch Mariah and Micah while Jermaine and I are gone next week." My momma raised her head.
"You two are going away?" She shook her head. "You can't leave these two with Ma, she needs her rest."
"Well I can't leave them home."
"Why not?" Micah and Mariah said at the same time.
"You're not old enough." Every adult at the table yelled at them. I hid a grin. Mariah pouted.
"But mom, I don't wanna stay with nana." Mariah said. I looked up at this. "Can I just stay with Sanaa`?" I choked suddenly on the bread I had been chewing. I tried to mouth no at my parents but before I knew it, my cousins had the ok to spend my week off in the house with me.
I flopped back onto my bed. It was Saturday, and I was on the phone with Nisi, watching Mariah bring her two tons of luggage into my room. Micah was going to spend the week in the guest room. Momma thought it was going to be "fun" for me to share my room with Mariah. I love my little cuz dearly, both of them, but I love my privacy better. Nisi was laughing at my and promising to lick away my troubles.
"Nisi, girl, I'ma get back to you later." I said, sitting up. "Uncle Ray asked me to help out at the pool today, a couple of the regular life guards are out sick."
"You gonna see Jeff?" I could hear the grin in Nisi's voice.
"Ha, I wish. He and Hunter have gone off somewhere or the other, which is why Uncle Ray asked me to come and help. Momma has me dragging Mariah along, I don't know why. Anyway Nisi girl, I'll see you later. You still coming over tonight?"
Tonight or tomorrow night, whichever one I'm free for." Nisi giggled softly into the phone. "Just get your cousin out of the room when I'm there, cause I'ma lick that kitty cat all better." She hung up and I sat back, laughing.
A while later Mariah and I stood outside the gate to the pools. My momma had dropped us off. Micah had left before us, saying he was going to go play basketball all day or something. I had asked my momma to send Mariah to the mall or something but momma kept saying Mariah would have more fun with me, as much as I didn't agree I knew better than to argue.
I looked up at the gates and walked in. The summer staff was off, back in school and the like so during the off season Uncle Ray hired lifeguards from the beach who were in their off season as well.
Mariah took a while to get situated, ending up planting herself in the lounge chair next to my station, coating herself with sun block, then lying out in the sun. I could see her from the corner of my eyes. Her legs were out straight, as were her arms. I could see the curve of her ass even though she was laying on it and her breasts were pushed up to the sky. I had to admit it, my little cuz was hot. She licked her lips as she laid there, and I could feel a little twinge in my pussy. I looked away. One cousin is enough Sanaa`, I giggled at myself. No need getting worked up over two of them. I leaned over on my station, looking at the guy in the station next to mine. He had been arching his back and breaking his neck to see Mariah. I turned my head to stare at the pool, yawning.
I had a break at two that afternoon, and I walked off to the commons. Mariah jumped up and followed me.
"Mariah, you can stay here. I just wanna go use the bathroom and rinse some of the chlorine off of me." I said. Mariah shook her head.
"No, I'll come too. I wanna wash off some of this sun block." I rolled my eyes.
"The showers are just for the lifeguards." I said. Mariah giggled.
"Aww, come on Sanaa`, no one cares." She ran in front of me as I hit the door to the commons, pushing past me. Her pussy brushed slowly against my ass as she went, and her hand brushed against it quickly afterwards. I looked at her, but she kept moving, running towards the locker room. I followed her, sweeping my fingers through my hair.
