My name is Earl and my sister's name is Sally. We're both 19 as we're twins. I'm six foot and four inches, built like a quarterback and red haired. Meanwhile my sister is only five foot and six inches, and built like a Barbie doll, except with red hair like mine.
Sally glares at me, but can you blame her? I've got her pinned on the bed! I slowly grin as if I've just gotten a very mean idea. She tries to act tough, but I see the nervousness in her eyes. I reach down towards her waist. She struggle more, going nowhere. I start to tickle her and she laughs loudly and struggles even more, still going nowhere. She shoves my right arm off and I lose my balance just enough that she is able to get out of my hold. She flips us and tickles me, well, she tries to anyway. See, my sister ain't very good at tickling so it didn't really work and I shoved her off pretty quick.
"Earl, stop it. Stop it now. Remember what Mama told you? You ain't allowed to play so rough with me anymore." She said, trying to calm herself.
"Aww, come now Sally. I thought you was havin' fun… Besides, Mama ain't here to stop me." I reply coyly.
I grab her and throw her down on the bed, gently of course. I may be big muscle-wise, but I'm not a brute. I have her pinned in seconds, and once again, she ain't going nowhere. But somethin' is different this time. There's a strange look in Sally's eyes, I've never seen it before. I feel a sort of tension and I go to speak but suddenly my mouth is dry. I clear my throat, wet my lips and try again.
"Sally? What's goin' on?" I mutter.
"Earl, I ain't never done this before, but I need to do this. Mom is gonna be here any minute." She says shyly, not making eye contact.
"Sal, I'm so confused. What's goi-" She interrupts me with a light slap on the cheek.
I stop talking and stare at her confused and slightly annoyed now. I go to talk again but before I'm able she pecks me on the lips. I continue staring, even more confused now. She kisses me again, this time longer. When she breaks it off, I lean down and kiss her back. We must have been kissing for a while because I eventually had to break it off just so I could breathe.
"What was that for, Sally? Why did you do that?" I ask quietly.
"I love you, Earl." She said, this time purposely avoiding eye contact.
I start to kiss her again, and at which point I hear mom's car keys hit the kitchen table.
"Shit, Mom's home." I break off the kiss immediately and tip-toe back to my room, and pull out a book and start reading.
