Second Chapter

She took a shower and grabbed the first things in her closet that looked somewhat normal. A pair of blue jeans and a black tank top. She hesitated but then she put on Eli´s grey hoodie she borrowed that time so long ago.

Eli was waiting downstairs with the keys in his hand. He looked up when Grace ran down the stairs, her step bouncy and her hair in a mess from the shower. When she stopped in front of him she held up the 2 bottles of vodka almost triumphantly.

"See, one for you and one for me" she stated and then walked through the door taking another swap of the bottle she had now dubbed her very own. Eli followed with a wide grin on his face. This was a new Grace and he liked it.

The drive over to Coop took no less than 10 minutes and as he pulled up on the driveway Eli was actually looking forward to the evening. Grace was already a bit tipsy and she was FUN!

As they made their way down to the basement Grace was humming on the tune being played on the radio when they drove there.

"I can´t help it if I´m helpless every time that I´m where e e e, Youuu are…"

"Nice voice Grace" Eli said and nudged her side.

"I know, i´m like some sort of pop star or something….NOT" Grace smiled and jumped on Eli´s back "Giddiup!"

Eli was once again surprised by this strange creature that had taken possession of his Grace. Her breast flatten against his back he grabbed her thighs to keep her up and suddenly thought about her legs wrapped around him in a totally different way.

Go away! Not right! he said to himself and shock his head to get it clear. He looked back at Grace grinning widely as she obviously enjoyed treating him like a horse.

He smiled with her and then they both started laughing and he walked in to Coop´s basement.

"Hey look. Its Eli the pony" Coop was not shy about mouthing what he was thinking.

The guys were all lying in the basement listening to their latest jam session. Coop, Tom and Wink gave some sly remarks as the duo appeared in the room.

"And who might this be?" Wink asked looking at Grace with a glimmer in his eye.

"Uhmm this is Grace…" Eli started as Grace slid down his back and walked in to the room.

"Yes, I am Grace" Grace interrupted "I´m here to have some fun." She smiled and Coop and the others smiled back. Eli noticed Coops eyes wondering down Grace´s body, stopping to admire her breast in that tight black top. What the…? He did not like his buddy looking at her that way.

"Then you´ve come to the right place" Mick said and put his arm around her, guiding her towards the couch. Tall and with sandy blonde hair he was one of the favorites with the girls.

"I had a feeling you were going to say that" Grace smiled and put her hand at Mick´s chest. "I need some fun" she had leaned forward and was whispering this in Mick´s ear. Her dosed eyes pinned at Eli.

He didn´t know what to say. This was so out of character that he didn´t recognize his step sister. Mick on the other hand had no such problem. "I´m sure going to enjoy getting to know you." Eli watched as the couple sat down in the couch and started talking. Facing each other Grace was offering some vodka to Mick and he happily obliged her and drank while putting his left hand on her thigh. She didn´t seem to notice as she was talking into his ear again.

"Mick is always fast" Coop commented on his left and Eli jerked back to his own body.

"Hmm what?"

"I said; Mick is always fast. You know how he is with the girls. She´s not yours is she? I´m sure he would back off" Coop was talking to Eli but he was looking at Grace. Her laughter at something Mick had said made her eyes glimmer and she tugged some hair behind her ear and then took another swipe at the vodka.

"She…" Eli started again. He wasn´t sure he wanted the guys to know she was available. "No she´s my step sister"

"Step sister? That's new." Coop sounded way happier than he should and Eli tore his eyes away from Grace´s face.

"It´s not new. You´ve meet her mother remember" Eli looked at Coop with narrowed eyes and put his hands in his pockets.

"Yeah I remember. She was hot" Coop smiled "So do you want to get this party started?"

He pulled up a small bag of weed from his back pocket and looked at Eli and then at Trig, the guy standing in the corner also looking at Grace with a stupid expression on his face. Or so Eli thought.

"Yeah, why not?" Eli said and dropped down In the armchair standing next to the couch.
