Beneath the cover of stairwell shadows, he witnessed their first kiss. Everyone had assumed he hadn't seen it coming. The uncouth ape-man, ten classes lower then his beautiful mei mei.

Surprisingly, he wasn't repulsed by the large mans hands cupping and groping her young, untainted body. The instinctual need to race forth and pry them apart, deck the oversize Neanderthal for taking advantage of his broken sister, lay dormant. Their mouths colliding hotly with yearning seemed oddly natural.

It wasn't until he heard the soft little mewls of pleasure hum from her lips, did his heart and body react to the display before him. He felt his stomach bottom out, the muscles keeping his form upright, faltered. The feeling was something akin to utter despair.

He had provided his sister with everything he possibly could, but he could not give her this. Physical pleasure, passion, intimacy beyond sibling love.

His body ached and burned with something else, longing. He wanted to be the one to make her moan, cause her to buckle from his every touch. Sometimes he loved her so much he thought his heart would explode, but there were always boundaries. Red sirens blaring every time his thoughts wandered further, teetering on the rickety edge of lust.

She was a goddess to him in everyway. A phantom angel, the motivation for waking each day. Sometimes his dreams granted them the breathless, trembling kisses, contact his conscious mind could not allow. He'd awake, his skin aflame, gasping for breath.

In the fog between slumber and rouse, he thought perhaps his fantasies were possible, and he would smile, because in that singular moment, it was a perfect universe.
