Chapter 10: Surprises In the Night
Summary: Sebastian tries to break things off with Annette and later gets an eye full of James and Kathryn.
Somehow later that night Sebastian managed to get home. He had sat in the empty bedroom after Kathryn left thinking about what to do next. For once in his life Sebastian was at a complete loss. He wanted Kathryn so badly but she seemed determined to make sure it didn't happen. The thing was he didn't just want to fuck her. Of course that would be very nice but he was finding with each passing day he wanted more. The more he saw her with James the more he wanted to get her away from him so he could have her all to himself.
The thing was, even if he was by some miracle able to get her away from him what then? He did have feelings for Annette and he hated the idea of hurting her but he really didn't see any other options. Either way someone was going to get burned. As he thought of all of this Sebastian collapsed onto the bed in a half drunken stupor. Images of both Kathryn and Annette wafted through his mind as he drifted into unconscienceness. He began to recall all the important and not so important moments that he had with those two girls. The first time he saw Kathryn. The first time Annette smiled at him. The moment when he realized he had found his equal in Kathryn. The first time he and Annette had made love. The first time he really kissed Kathryn. It was all there.
Finally some time later Sebastian woke up with a massive headache. He still felt a little wobbly but after he managed to find some coffee he left Blain's and got in his car. He was taking the long way home when he began to consider dumping Annette. He didn't know why the idea hadn't come to him sooner. Sebastian knew it was most likely because by breaking up with Annette he would in fact be proving everyone including Kathryn right, he and Annette couldn't make it work.
However he didn't care. If he broke up with Annette he could be free to chase after Kathryn (after he figured a way out of the whole step siblings thing) and it might prove to her that he really was serious this time and not just after a good lay. As he got out of the car his hands were shaking somewhat at the move he was about to make. Sebastian knew he was risking everything but he didn't care.
Heading into the house he made the decision that he would call Annette right away. Someone at the party had told him she had left so he thought she might still be up and she would probably still be pissed at him for his behavior at the party. Good he thought, then maybe she'll agree that ending this was the best thing. Sebastian also recalled how Kathryn told him something about Annette being somewhere with someone else. At the time he was too drunk and too horny to care what she was talking about but now he wondered if she could of been fooling around when he was with Kathryn.
Sebastian was lost in thought when he entered his bedroom and jumped at the site of Annette. She was sitting on his large bed staring out the window. When she saw him he was even more surprised when she gave him a smile and said "hey."
Shaking the surprise away he said "hey. What are you doing here?"
Getting off the bed she said "I wanted to talk about what happened tonight."
"Yeah about that I-"
She silenced him "I understand."
This was not what he expected to say the least. "You what?"
Annette smiled slightly "I get why you were acting that way. You were drinking and I'm sure my attitude didn't help any. Can we just forget about it?"
"I..." He started trying to figure out how this all got so turned around on him. "Look Annette you have nothing to apologize for and on the way home I was doing a lot of thinking about us."
"Oh yeah?" She said as she wrapped her arms around his waist.
Sebastian gently tried to pry her off. "It's just I've been thinking about just how truly different we are."
"And that's what makes us great."
"I suppose" he sighed. "Annette I was thinking maybe we should-"
"Sebastian" she interrupted "you know what I realized tonight?"
He was almost afraid to ask "what's that?"
Annette pulled him closer "I was sitting in one of the bedrooms and all I could think about was us and all the good times we had together. I kept thinking that if I lost that, if I lost you I wouldn't know what to do. I love you so much, I could never lose you." Before he could reply she pulled him down into a kiss. Sebastian kissed her back but the whole time his brain was screaming get out! This was not how it was suppose to go, he was suppose to break up with her so he could have Kathryn. However after that last part, not knowing what she would do without him had him more than a little wigged. This might not be the best time for his little breakup.
Although he desperately didn't want to put it off anymore he didn't really see any other alternative so when she pulled him over to the bed Sebastian went along with her.
* * * * * *
Later that night, right before dawn Sebastian felt himself stir when he heard someone come in his room. He looked at Annette sleeping beside him and she didn't seem to notice the intruder. Sitting up slightly he tried to see who it was and was surprised when Kathryn walked into the room wearing a cheshire cat smile. Sebastian felt this thrill of excitement build up in him at the sight of her but then he remembered Annette was sleeping right next to him and this might be hard to explain.
"Kathryn what are you doing?"
Her smile only widened as she approached him "what does it look like I'm doing silly?"
"Annette's going to wake up" he whispered as she stood next to the bed.
Kathryn glanced over at the sleeping blond beside him "doubt it. Did you miss me?"
Sebastian couldn't help but smile "oh course. Look Kathryn there's some things I have to tell y-"
She brought a finger to his lips "shhh...you'll wake her up." Grinning Kathryn then proceeded to straddle him letting her hands rest on his bare chest.
As expected he was a little more than shocked my this. "Oh yeah" he whispered to her "this won't wake her up."
Kathryn just giggled as she pulled her dress over her head to reveal her beautiful body covered only in a couple pieces of lace. She wiggled slightly making him become almost instantly hard. Although he knew he should be terrified about waking up Annette he wasn't. "Sebastian" Kathryn purred "is there anything you wish you could of done differently in your life?"
The question through him "umm...I suppose."
She nodded "there are very few times in life where were able to undo the mistakes we made." As Kathryn told him this she took his hand and guided it to her breast.
This was all confusing Sebastian terribly. Why was Kathryn straddling him with Annette right there and asking him all these bizarre questions? He began to massage her breast and said in a sincere voice "Kathryn I want you."
"I know I can feel it" she groaned.
"No" he said sitting up and pulling her closer "I want you...not just for sex."
This tiny knowing smile appeared on her face as she whispered "I know."
Sebastian smiled at her then kissed her on the mouth. She pushed him onto his back as they continued kissing happily unaware of Annette's presence. Suddenly Kathryn stopped kissing him and pulled away and said "so Valmont is it too late to undo your mistake?"
In that instant Sebastian sat up in bed quickly and realized he was alone. Looking around the empty, dark bedroom her realized he was alone except for Annette who was still sleeping soundly beside him. Kathryn was no where in sight. It took him a minute to realize it had all been a dream.
He sighed and touched his mouth trying to remember what happened because he would likely forget it soon. He didn't want to forget it he had to remember it. Shaking his head he realized he needed to get up, get a drink, and think a minute.
As he looked out the large window he noticed it was practically light out all ready. Thinking back to the night before he recalled that after him and Annette had sex he had made up an excuse to leave so he could see if Kathryn had arrived home yet. She hadn't and he had fallen asleep thinking about her. It made sense that he would of course be woken up by her.
Sebastian started for the kitchen but was stopped when he heard strange moans coming from the foyer. Actually he knew what the moans were caused from and who they were caused by but he couldn't help himself from looking. Peaking into the main foyer he was greeted by the sight of James fucking Kathryn against the wall.
Both of they were still fully dressed except Kathryn's skirt was up around her waist. Her slender legs were wrapped tightly around him and he eyes were closed as he pounded her into the wall. For some reason Sebastian found he couldn't pull his eyes away from the pair. He couldn't remember the last time he had felt this jealous if at all. Just when he was trying to force his legs to walk away Kathryn opened her eyes and stared at him. She didn't say anything she just continued to moan softly in James ear. Sebastian's eyes locked with hers and at that moment he knew what she was thinking. This could have been you, but once again you fucked up.
Finally unable to stand any more of it Sebastian turned and left. He forgot about going to the kitchen for a drink and instead headed back to his bedroom. As he climbed in bed his head was wracked with images of what he just scene. Sebastian then recalled what Kathryn had asked him about in his dream. Something about it being to late to undo his mistake. He thought he had plenty of time to get Kathryn back but maybe he was wrong. Maybe she was lost to him forever.
A minute after he crawled into bed Annette began to stir. She looked up at him with her blue eyes and said "what are you doing up?"
"I don't know" he lied not looking at her.
"I think I know" she whispered to him as her small hand began to wander inside his pants.
For once in his life Sebastian didn't want sex. In fact after what he just witnessed sex was the last thing on his mind. There was no way he could get hard now. However Annette was persistent as she wrapped her hand around his dick and started rubbing. As gently as possible Sebastian pulled her hand out from his pants. "Not now...I can't."
Annette looked at his puzzled "why not?"
Sebastian rolled over on his side "I'm too tired. Good night." Lucky for him Annette left it at that and went back to sleep. Sebastian however could not so he spent the rest of the night contemplating his next move.
* * * * * *
Kathryn awoke late the next morning to find James sitting beside her. "Morning" he said with his usual smile.
"Morning did you sleep at all?" She asked knowing they were up late last night, infact pretty much till dawn.
"A little. I was just thinking it was probably a good thing your parents are out of town. It might be a little hard to explain my presence here. Where are they any way?"
Kathryn sighed sitting up "my step father is still in California...I think and my darling mother is in the country."
"Doing what?"
She groaned at a sudden realization. "She's getting ready for my party."
James fixed her with a curious stare "what party?"
"My birthday party she insists on throwing every year up at our home in the Hamptons. It's my birthday tomorrow."
He smiled "well why didn't you tell me? Am I invited?"
Kathryn smiled slightly "of course. I don't know why I didn't tell you, probably because I hate celebrating my birthday. Anyway the party is tomorrow but I told her I would come down today." Kathryn rolled her eyes "I think Sebastian is suppose to come too."
James smile fell slightly and she wasn't sure if it was because of her mention of Sebastian or something else. "Oh I don't think I could do it today."
She gave him a playful frown "why not? I was counting on you as my ride."
"I would love to do nothing more than go on a drive to the country with you however you remember that show I was telling you about? Well I'm suppose to go talk to the gallery owner today. I don't think I can get out of it, sorry."
Kathryn sighed "it's all right I'll just have to find another way there. You will be able to make the party though right?"
He nodded "of course I'll be there." They kissed then he pulled away "I'm starving think we could get something to eat?"
Kathryn led him to the breakfast room and found Sebastian already there sitting in his robe reading the paper. As she saw him she immediately thought back to the previous night. Her and James had ran into the house and she had pulled him against the wall of the foyer. For a thrill she had ordered him to fuck her right there and of course he hadn't disagreed. Kathryn honestly didn't think Sebastian would see them but she had to admit she got a slight thrill out of it especially when she saw how jealous he was.
As she walked into the room there eyes once again locked like they had the previous night. "Good morning Sebastian" she said as she poured herself some coffee.
"Morning. You slept late."
James smiled "yes we were up late last night."
"So I noticed" he muttered as he took a sip of coffee.
Taking a seat across from him Kathryn asked "so Sebastian are you still planning on going down to the country today?"
He looked up and smiled "oh yes the annual birthday party...I almost forgot."
She returned the smile "so long as you don't forget the gift."
"Well what do you get the girl who has everything?"
"How about a ride...in you car."
Sebastian smirked "well I had something else in mind. However since it is you birthday I think a ride isn't totally out of the question."
Kathryn smiled at him as James glared at the two. Any one else would have thought this was just friendly sibling banter but he knew different. It was flirting plain and simple. He said "great and I'll meet you down there tomorrow."
"Great" Sebastian said with fake enthusiasm.
"What's great?" Annette asked as she walked in the room.
Kathryn glared at her then returned her attention back to Sebastian. He smiled and said "tomorrow's Kathryn's eighteenth birthday. Tiffani is throwing a party in the Hamptoms and Kathryn and I promised we would come down today to help her get ready."
"Oh" Annette said "your leaving this morning?"
"Yeah I have to give Kathryn a ride seeing as she's too lazy to drive herself."
Kathryn glared at him and he smiled back. "Annette would you like to come?" Kathryn asked curious what Sebastian's reaction would be.
Annette seemed surprised by the offer. "Oh I told my father I would help him with the school fund raiser today. Maybe I could drive down later."
"Oh that's too bad" Kathryn said as she smiled at her step brother. "I guess it will be just me and Sebastian."
