MADISON'S POV

Lexi and I flop down on the sofa's in the TV room, our moms are in the kitchen with aunt Kate and Aunt Mia and our dads and Elliott are in the game room playing poker, everyone left about an hour ago but the activities of the day have caught up with me and I am so tired

"Today was great Mads, our family's really do know how to throw a party" Lexi says, before I can answer her my dad walks in and tells me to pull up the CCTV on the television and check each camera to make sure there are none of our friends are still left in our house, when I ask why he cant do it he goes into this long speech about how he has pocket aces and Taylor and Sawyer are now in the game. I press a few buttons on on the control and the screen jumps to life filled with grids, each with a different view of a different part of the house and grounds, I press a button so it shows only 1 room at at time, I am not really taking any notice of it until Lexi gasps

OH MY GOD LOOK!" she points to the TV screen where it shows the over head view from the camera in the boathouse and it shows a man on top of an unseen woman and they are clearly having sex, both of us start laughing

"Who is that?Turn the sound up " she tells me and she starts tilting her head side to side to try and get a better look

"Lex no!, we cant watch, we need to turn it off" before I can she grabs the control from my grasp.

"Lighten up, I bet it is that new security dude Clarkson" she turns the volume up a little but so we can hear but anyone walking past won't

"Can you see who it is yet?" I ask as she gets really close to the screen

We both have a big giggle when we see a womans arms come around the mans back and she digs her nails in and run them straight down his back leaving deep red lines.

"Oh my god Mads turn it off, turn it off quick" she starts flapping her hands around covering her eyes

"Why whats wrong?"

"oh my god, oh my god, I think that's James!"

"WHAT!?" I shout, I scramble for the control but as I do I accidentally hit the sound button and the noise gets louder and then as clear as anything I have ever heard in my entire life we hear it

"Come for me Phoebe"

I hit the off button as fast as I can and the 2 of us just stare at the blank screen

"Oh my god did you know?" she whispers to me

"no I had no idea"

"I thought they were just friends...oh my god how long do you think they have been together, are they together or do they just...hook up" I stand up and lock the door, I do not want my parents to walk in in here

"Only one way to find out, it has been a couple of minutes, I will turn the TV back on, make sure they are both covered up and then we eavesdrop" I feel a little bad about spying on my sister but come on this is like the biggest thing to ever happen ever!

When I flick the TV back on James is on his back bare chested, with one arm under his head and the other caressing Phoebes back while she lays curled into his side.

"Turns the sound up Mads, this is so gross because that is my brother so it's like eww but holy shit I can not belive those to are together, they fucking lived together for like 4 years" I turn it up and we listen to their pillow talk

"Did that limped dick frat boy ask you out Phoebe?"

"Yes he did, calm down I told him I was not interested" she starts to run her finger in small circles on James chest, it is clear they are very comfortable with each other

"Good that fucker was eye fucking you all day, it took every bit of my control to not drown him in the fucking pool"

"Calm down killer, there is and only has been you Mr Cross"

"Oh my god does that mean he took her virginity?shit!" I ask now running through my hands through my hair, a trait I picked up from my father

"I know that baby, it just kills me that no body knows that you are my girl! We need to tell the rents soon baby, before summer end and we start at GCE, they will know then for sure"

Phoebe rolls off of him onto her back looking at the ceiling and unknown to her the camera, thank god she has a sheet up over her chest

"I know Jay but what do we say? I don't want your mom to hate me"

"Why would she think my mom would hate her? she love that girl like she was her own daughter?" Lexi frowns at the screen

"Baby my mom loves you, why would that change when she finds out we are together?"

"Jay she loves me because at the moment I am just her best friends daughter who is her sons best friend, when she finds out I am the girl who is banging her baby boy she will try to rip my eyes out because baby, and i mean this with love, but you are the biggest mommas boy in the pacific northwest"

"Coming from the country's biggest daddies girl...oh god your dad is going to kill me isn't he?"

"Yep, he is going to rip off your dick and feed it to you"

"He has to catch me first and remember I am a fast runner, and by the way we need to come up with a sex schedule, we have been home for 2 days and I have only had you on my own in a locked room twice, we are messing with our average baby"

"oh my god!" Lexi and I both shake our heads, this is like a car wreak, you should look away but you just can't

"Jay, we fucked on the plane for a straight 4 hours, then last night you went at me from 11pm until 5am this morning when we had to sneak back in and then tonight we have been at it for 3 hours, we left a party that was for us so we could sneak off"

"Not the first time we have sneaked away from a party that was being hosted for one of us...remember your sweet sixteen?"

"Jesus Christ 16! They were 16! Oh my god she was having sex at 16 and here I am and dad won't even let me go on a date! What the fuck!" I screech

"Yeah I remember, Ava walked in on us in that office, god her face when she saw us, I wish I had that on camera"

"so can you pencil me in tomorrow?"

"Baby I will pencil you in forever but I must say I kinda like all this sneaking around, reminds me of when we were teenagers trying to sneak away for a quickey"

"What are we going to use as our excuses?"

"Same ones as before, going for a run... Taking the dog for a walk...we can say we are going to the mall and then sneak off to that seedy little motel six by the freeway like we used to"

"well before we run off to the nearest run down dump Phoebe Grace...we are here now...in a bed...all alone" before he can say anymore I quickly turn the whole thing off

"Well that was... I mean...yeah ok" Lex is speechless

"Do we confront them or let them come to us and tell us? We cant let them know that we just watched that" I point to the TV, she is almost as white as I am.

"James will fucking kill me if he finds out we watched that...but this could work to our advantage..." she smirks over at me,

"How?"

"Well you know we were going to just sneak out to go to Club Review?... Well if we get James and Phoebe to tell our dads that we are going out with them, ya know bowling and a movie and then we get them to take us to the club, its win win for us, we get to go to the club AND if we get caught the blame will go on my big bro and your big sister"

"That is...absufuckinglutly fantastic!"

"Ok so tomorrow we let them know that we know and then we make our demands"

I love my sister and a feel a smidge bad about blackmail but...I remember when Phoebe and Ava crashed a party Alexis and I had snuck out to go to when we were 14 and found us drinking bad beer, they dragged us out of there and never told our parenst but I had to wait on Phoebe hand foot and finger that winter when we went to Aspen because she kept threatening to tell dad so... pay backs my sister are an absolute bitch!

The next morning we are invited over to Eva and Gideons for breakfast and I can't help but notice things about Phoebe and James that I can't belive I missed before, like the little touches, the smiles, when I dropped my fork on the floor by mistake when I picked it up I noticed their feet were entwined under the table. James yawns loudly making Paige and Brooke laugh and then I pick up on the innuendos that I have never noticed before

"Big night last night Jay?" Phoebe has a small smile playing on her lips that up until last night I would have ignored

"Yeah after the party I had a pretty hard work out, did some moves that I haven't done before, I think I may have tweaked my back a little actually"

"Oh poor baby!" she pouts making the girls laugh again "Perhaps the work out you had last night was to much for an old man like you?"

"Nothing a good hard run at it wont cure, I am sure I can nail it correctly, you know what they say, practice makes perfect" he gives her a lop sided grin.

Lexi and I catch each others eye, I have never been more uncomfortable in my entire life! They have no clue that we know about them and they are talking in code thinking it is only them in on it, little do they know, to me and Lex it is glaringly obvious.

"Sure does...hey do you wanna go to the mall with me? I need some new running shoes, and some work our gear, oh and I need a new gown for the Coping Together ball this weekend " She looks at him dead in the eye and I still can not belive how in the FUCK we didn't see it before

"Yeah sure I could do with some new jeans, might get myself a new Tux as well for this old shin dig"

A hour later Lex and I watch James and Phoebe drive off in Phoebes Ferrari. If there is one thing that my sister loves more than sailing its her cars! She has 8! Dad had a garage built just for her at the other side of our house, she has a Bugatti Veron, a classic 1969 Mustang, a Corvette, Ferrari, Porch, a vintage Aston Martin, Audi R8 and a custom pimped out Range Rover that my parents had shipped over from England for her 17th birthday, dad indulges her in her love of cars, personally I think it is a waste of money because she can only drive 1 at a time, but she gets so enthusiastic talking about engine blocks, tires, 0-60 times and the latest gadgets for each brand. When she first started showing an interest aged about 13 everyone thought it was just a faze and she would get over it but she read every book and manual she could find and by the time she was 16 she could fix any problem a car had, she has taken advanced driving lessons and Dad even took he to the Bonneville Salt Flats where they had a drag race! When she was in Europe with James and Ava when she was 19 I know she did a circuit of something called the nur burg ring, I have no idea what that is but she raved about it for weeks.

A few hours later Lexi and I are in my parents boathouse sat on the sofa, no way are we perching on the bed, we both sent texts to Phoebe and James to meet us here and I can now hear them walking up the stairs, they walk in both looking confused as hell making me giggle.

"What do you both want? I can tell by your faces that I am not going to like where this is going" Phoebe always was perceptive

"Please take a seat big sis and I will tell you" they take a seat on the foot of the bed, sat about 2 feet apart, I must admit they hide there relationship well

"What is this about Alexis? We both have things to do" James is getting huffy

"Big bro do me a favor, you too Pheebs, lay back on the bed and look at the ceiling"

"Why? what to you both want" Phoebe ask's

"Just do it" Lexi and me both say at the same time, they do it after an eye roll and a scowl

"What are we supposed to be looking at?" James asks

"You see by the light fixture...to the right...see that little glass dot...yeah thats the camera that Christian had installed about 2 months back" they both bolt up at Lexi's word and stare at us, they know what we saw but they want us to admit it first

"What did you see?" Phoebe asks wide eyed

"Everything...well we didn't see your bits or James but we did hear you say that you skipped out on your sweet 16th to get laid" I say sweetly

"Ok let's get down to business, what are your demands because I know you both and you are going to ring everything you can out of this" Phoebe is on to us but I let Lexi tell them about the club, they scream at us for about 10 minutes that blackmail is the lowest of the low but eventually they cave calling us diabolical human beings and then they gross us out big time when they say because the boathouse is now out of commission they are going to go have sex in the treehouse, ewwwwwww.
