KITTEN’S POV

“Bye, dear!” My mom told me as she hurried down the driveway. She was late for work and had little time to get ready, so her vibrant red hair was a mess, and I almost chuckled in amusement as she tried to tie it into a knot while running down the street.

“Safe journey, mum,” I wave back until she’s out of my sight. Then I go back into the 3-bedroom apartment that we live in. My stepdad bought it 2 months before he died 7 years ago. He’d saved up to buy this dream home for all of us, but sadly, never got to live in it. Mom has never opened her heart to any other man, so she never remarried. I do hope she does so one day.

 I have a stepbrother, and his name’s William. We’re both 18 this year and have finished high school. As it is, our dear mother hasn’t been able to raise money to further either of our education, and we decided not to stress her more than she already was. I took on a part-time job as a waitress at a nearby famous restaurant, and my stepbrother, a popular gamer, would often lock himself up in his room, gaming most of the time. 

From the time I turned 14, I started growing feelings for him, and it scared me at first. I knew it was wrong and tried everything possible to get rid of the feelings, but I failed. I couldn’t stop my feelings from becoming stronger. I successfully hid my feelings from him, though and played the role of a good stepsister, even though I wanted to be something more- a sister with benefits.

While I inherited my mom’s red hair, green eyes, and petite figure, William, on the other hand, was well-built with dark hair, ocean-blue eyes — the colour of the sea in winter — and an athletic body that didn’t make sense, since he was always indoors, playing games.

 Whenever I see him, I just can’t help thinking that he’s the creator’s favourite. I mean how can a human look so damn hot?

As I scanned the living room with my eyes, I finally focused my gaze on the clock. It’s 9 minutes past seven. I’m pretty sure my stepbrother’s still in his room gaming.

He hardly socialised anyway.

I head to my room and change out of my clothes into a white towel, and then I head out to the bathroom. With full confidence, I open the bathroom door wide and enter, only to hear a scolding

“Can’t you knock?”

My eyes are met with the side profile of my stepbrother, nude in the shower. I knew he was hot, but gosh! This is too much of a feast!

Yet I know I can’t look on any longer.

“I’m sorry, William. I thought you were still in your room,” I say with an apologetic face while having no intention of leaving. 

“Get out!” he barks in ire, his hands covering his special parts from my sight, and a part of me really wished he didn’t cover it at all. This was such a fantastic opportunity!

“Are you deaf?” he threw a slipper at me, and in the process of dodging, I slipped. While trying hard not to fall, desperate for anything to hold onto, my towel decided it was done cladding my body too, and so it loosened and fell off before I fell to the floor.

“Ahhhh!” I let out a shriek on seeing my exposed state. I cover my boobs with one hand as I hurriedly rise to my feet, picking up the towel.

“I’m sorry,” I apologise before rushing out of the bathroom without closing the door behind me. I head straight to my room and slam the door shut. Only then did I realise that I was just holding the towel. I tie it around my chest and sit on the bed, covering my face in mortification.

He’s clearly seen what I was trying to hide and since I didn’t even recall to cover myself before fleeing, he must have seen my nude butt as I ran off. 

Gosh!

If only the ground could open and swallow me now. How am I to face him, after what happened minutes ago?

William’s POV.

The hot water relaxes my muscles, which is a welcome feeling after pulling an all-nighter playing a championship in the RPG with my teammates.

It was a tough battle since we were playing against an equally strong team, but we won at last, and the victory felt like candy on my tongue. 

As I replayed the killing move I used to end the other team, the door was pushed open and Kitten carelessly and absentmindedly waltzed into the bathroom without knocking.

“Can’t you knock?” My voice came out stronger than I intended as I hurriedly used my hands to cover up my nether regions from her sight. 

She frantically tried to apologise, but I needed her to leave quickly, so I tossed a slipper in her direction…

While trying to elude, she slipped, and that made my heart nearly jump out of my chest.

Of course, I want to prevent her from falling, but not in this state! I believe she’ll at most fall on her butt, get back on her feet and leave. Then I’ll apologise to her at a later time.

But her towel just had to fall off, and her glory, something forbidden for me, was all exposed before me.

My stepsister is the most beautiful female I’ve ever seen in my life, and though I do have some sort of unspeakable feelings for her after I turned 15, I always kept them to myself and acted cold and distant from her.

The few seconds that I saw her body with my mouth open in shock, I was forced to press harder on my lower part. I couldn’t let her see what her nude self was doing to me down there.

“Get out!” I yell, and she rises to her feet and flees. She didn’t even bother to cover herself up before running away, and didn’t close the door either.

Even though it felt wrong, I felt also that this was a rare opportunity, so I fed my eyes with the amazing view of her round, jiggling butt as she fled until she was out of sight.

It was only then that I recalled the bathroom door was still open, and I had to close it with reluctance.

Not only that, my bird down there was hard. I needed to cool it off, and cold water wouldn’t just help like it did in the past.
