[Aldo]
Those full lips and a smile that makes you feel good. And how her cheeks dimple when she looks startled… how she was looking up at me before I kissed her.
“Nope,” I say to my car. “Nope, nope, nope.” I get my phone out and go for Andre. I’m gonna call him.
You’re gonna tell him? My brain freaks out.
He picks up on the second ring. “Aldo!” he calls. There’s music behind him and chatter everywhere. He’s out. “My man!”
“My man!” I say back. “I see you’ve gotten back into your old ways.”
“Just out and about,” he says. “You heard of a place called Hush?”
“Course I have. Luca owns it!” I yell. I’m yelling in my car even though I don’t need to. What the hell am I doing? I should just go join him…
“Damn man! This place was expensive as shit to get into, but worth it. There’s women everywhere, man.”
“Yeah, it’s a bit of a hangout spot for the models on the Piovere brand. Luca owns that too. Actually, Sophie is the Creative Director now and…”
“All I heard was you better wear earplugs tonight because I ain’t sleeping alone!” Andre begins talking to someone on the phone.
“Hey, anyway,” I begin. “I spoke with Luca.”
“Cool man,” he replies. I can tell he’s checked out of our conversation, but I persist in finding my redemption.
“He wants to meet. Says that if I’m vouching for you, you must be a good dude…”
“Is that right?” he says, before the phone goes dead.
Well, I tried.
I take the highway as fast as I can and dodge between cars and trucks as I race for home, for the security of my own bed and house. My phone pings, and the dual emotions of fear and hope spring up. Is it Dawn?
Of course it’s not Dawn. For some damn reason it’s Lindsey…
I read the preview. She’s sent a picture and some text. I can’t see the picture, but I can read the message. This is how a real man treats me…
I roll my eyes and delete the thing without reading it. That I don’t need to see anymore. I don’t know what I saw in that crazy woman. Mom had always warned me.
Yeah, we had some fun, but damn, did I spend a lot of time trying to fix the shit she’d made. I couldn’t even tell you why I put up with her for so long? It’s like I just finished holding my breath and hit my head against the shower wall. Only to wonder why I was holding my breath?
Not like Dawn. Why didn’t I see her before? Everything would’ve been much easier if Andre wasn’t here. At least if he wasn’t here when we hooked up, we could at least-
I remind myself of what and who Dawn is.
Andre’s younger sister.
I screech to a halt in front of my apartment block and then turn in. I park in my spot and focus on the world around me. It’s still as humid as anything. The rain that’s been falling despite the dry season is threatening to come back, and when I enter my apartment, a wash of cold hits me.
Andre left the AC on. Asshole
I grunt at my brain and ignore everything in my surroundings. I’m buzzing but insist to myself I gotta shower and then bed. A nice cold shower. Icey. As cold as my damn faucet will allow. That’s what back stabbers deserve…
Except standing under the spray does nothing to me. If anything, it makes me focus on my mind and thoughts, and when I do that, all I see is Dawn and I in the cupboard. The feel of her pussy wrapped around my pulsing erection. Sliding in and out.
Her moans in my ear as I pump into her. I could tell that she was about to come, and come hard. Just as hard as I was going to…
I’m stroking my hard erection in the shower, and I don’t care. The image of Dawn keeps swimming in my mind, and I continue to mentally fuck her until I cum. I groan out loud and wish that I’d actually been with her…
With a clearer mind, I curse myself for the trouble I’ve just got myself into. I shut the water off and place the towel down. I go straight to bed and lie there, staring at the ceiling.
“Man, I am in trouble,” I utter.
It’s like fifteen years of my life have just crept up on me. And after all that time, I realize that Dawn has been a bigger and better part of my life than I ever thought. There’s still just one main problem, that she’s the sister of my best-friend. The best friend, I’ve put my neck out on the line for many times.
The best friend who has helped me just as many times too. The best friend who needed me recently to lend a hand.
And in return I fucked his sister.
My phone vibrates and I see it’s Dawn.
I finally realize what scares me so much. It’s not that she’s Andre’ younger sister. It’s that if I fuck this up, I don’t just lose her, I lose them both.
Because they’re family.
I groan and knuckle my eyes.
Cazzo! What have I done!
