Ignoring the temptation to feign illness and stay in bed for the rest of the summer, Rebecca got dressed and exited her bedroom. The smell of breakfast drifted upstairs, causing her stomach to rumble. The hunger, coupled with her overwhelming anxiety, made the trek downstairs slow and agonizing. She slowly descended and tried to figure out the best explanation that would get her through this inevitably awkward conversation more quickly.
Hopefully, Abi wasn't the type to make this a big deal. A parent walking in on their child while they were getting frisky wasn't rare. This wasn't even the first time this sort of situation had happened to Rebecca. She cringed at the memory of her mom catching her jerking off and giving her the talk afterwards.
However, there was a big difference. When her mom saw her, Rebecca was masturbating to the hottest pictures of Emma Watson and Alexandra Daddario. Yesterday, she was jerking off to a picture that featured her grandmother. It felt wrong just thinking about it. While she could excuse herself by saying she was getting excited because of Amber, deep down…Rebecca knew the truth. Why did Abi have to be such a looker when she was younger? She was still a looker now. Rebecca didn't have an expiry date when it came to women. If they were up for it, she could get up for her.
A dumb joke. That usually calmed her nerves. Today, it was ineffective.
There was no turning back now as Rebecca walked into the kitchen and spotted Abi preparing breakfast by the cooker. The smell of egg and toast warmed Rebecca's soul. She needed all the help and comfort she could get to survive this awkward situation.
Somehow, without Rebecca making a significant sound, Abi knew that she was there. She turned and greeted her granddaughter with a smile. Though, Rebecca could see a brief flash of hesitation. It seemed like there was going to be no way to avoid this conversation. So, Rebecca decided to get it out of the way as quickly as possible.
''Abi, I wanted to say sorry for yesterday…''
''No, I should be the one apologizing,'' Abi replied as she finished cooking breakfast and set the food on two plates. ''I must have given you quite the fright.''
''I could say the same thing to you.''
Abi set the plates on the table and pulled a chair out for Rebecca. Apprehensively, Rebecca took the seat that was offered and stared down quietly at her food. She kept her head down as Abi sat next to her. The longer the silence lingered, the more tense Rebecca felt. Words failed her as her throat tightened. How was this rougher than when her mom caught her and gave her the talk? Was it because Abi was still almost like a stranger to her? Being caught in such a compromising position by a parent felt easier because what followed was predictable. However, Rebecca didn't know what Abi's reaction would be. This easygoing breakfast didn't help her nerves.
''So…'' Rebecca stammered. ''On a scale of one to ten, how mad are you?''
''Oh, dear…'' Abi said softly. ''I'm not mad at you at all. It was just bad timing.''
''Seriously?''
Abi nodded and then let out a sweet laugh. ''I'm not going to fault you for doing something natural. I was young once. If we had the internet in my day, we'd have done the same thing.''
This conversation didn't feel right. Abi was taking this far too well. How was she so calm over the fact that Rebecca jerked off to pictures of her?
Unless…
''You…didn't see…everything, right?''
Abi glanced to the side as her cheeks became flushed. ''I saw enough.''
''But, you didn't see…what I was looking at?''
Rebecca watched as her grandmother's brow furrowed. ''You weren't looking at men, were you?''
''What? No!''
''Oh, good,'' Abi sighed. ''Because if you were, I'd be worried that I had an alien shapeshifter in my house who looked like my granddaughter.''
The two shared a momentary laugh. Rebecca's was filled with relief. While it wasn't a clean victory; in more ways than one, she could at least bask in the knowledge that Abi hadn't seen her masturbating to pictures of her. The thought still hooked into the back of her mind. She was still trying to process how she had subjected herself to doing such a taboo thing. Though, seeing Abi from this angle as she laughed, with the morning sunlight pouring through the window and illuminating her features, Rebecca wasn't going to lie to herself. Abi was a very attractive woman. If they weren't related, the breakfast in front of her wouldn't be the only thing getting eaten on this table. That image made Rebecca's heart skip a beat. But, it could never happen. It was wrong on every level.
Yet, that's what made the prospect so alluring.
No, Rebecca couldn't allow herself to be tempted. She had dodged a bullet. She wasn't going to open herself up so dangerously like that again.
''You know what,'' Abi said, dragging Rebecca out of her thoughts. ''Why don't we watch a movie tonight? Does that sound good?''
''That sounds great.''

Rebecca felt more at ease as the day went by without any more hiccups.
She and Abi drove into town to pick up some snacks for their movie night. Popcorn with cans of soda. It was going to be a chilled activity with no drama. It was the perfect medicine after what happened yesterday. Rebecca could take in the sights without any worries plaguing her mind. She could see why Abi loved living here. Everyone knew each other. A calming atmosphere overlayed the town with a feeling of tranquil peace. Maybe that's why Abi was the type of person to take everything in stride. Rebecca hoped that her time here would have that effect on her. The embarrassment of getting caught with her dick out by her grandmother was hardly a factor as day turned to night and the two returned home.
''So, what are we watching?'' Rebecca asked as she settled on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in hand.
Abi joined her and reached for the remote. ''I've had this film on my watchlist for a while. I don't know much about it other than it got quite the standing ovation at a few film festivals, and is apparently quite a controversial one. I love films that ignite that kind of reaction.''
''Neat.''
''You don't mind romance, do you?''
''I can live with it,'' Rebecca shrugged. ''Do you remember what it's called?''
''I think it was…Red is the Hottest Color.''
Rebecca's heart stopped. ''Oh no.''
Her quiet anguish went unnoticed by Abi as she continued to search through the streaming service in search of the film that she was looking for. Her innocent expression led Rebecca to believe that the older woman didn't have the slightest clue regarding what kind of film this particular one was. There was a reason why this film was so controversial.
''Ah, there it is,'' Abi said and pressed play.
Rebecca shifted awkwardly in her seat. This was potentially going to be the longest three and a half hours of her life.
She kept silent as the film started. It did cross her mind to warn Abi that this wasn't the type of film that one should watch with the family. But, she backed down from that idea. She could tell that Abi was really looking forward to watching this, even if she was oblivious to the content. Plus, if Rebecca warned her about it, she would no doubt be interrogated over how she knew about the movie and what it entailed. This was a project that Rebecca had kept a close eye on because of certain scenes that were scattered throughout the film. Once again, she thought about stopping the film. A list of excuses came to her. Yet, she couldn't bring herself to do anything about it. Abi wanted to spend this time with her. She wanted them to have a relaxing movie night together. Rebecca couldn't bring herself to ruin this moment, especially when Abi laid back and snuggled slightly closer to her. Rebecca would have melted if she could. She felt so warm.
Maybe this wouldn't be so bad. Maybe the content in the film had been overhyped and it wasn't as taboo as Rebecca had heard.
''Oh my.''
Within the first twenty minutes, it quickly became apparent that it was far more explicit than Rebecca could have imagined.
It didn't help that the plot was hitting so close to home. The film followed a young woman who dropped out of college and was trying to hitchhike her way through a small town only to stumble into the path of a neglected housewife who was looking for some excitement in her life. The age gap between the fictional pair was noticeable. The housewife was more than twice the age of the traveller. Yet, their chemistry was sizzling hot. Rebecca and Abi could see it. They were swept up in the drama as it culminated in a scene where they went back to the housewife's home when the neglectful husband was away.
''This film certainly doesn't shy away from the sex scenes, does it?'' Abi asked.
Rebecca could tell that she was trying to play this off and laugh about it. However, there was no denying how hot the scene was. The two women were really going at it on screen…and that's because they were.
''You know, the actresses are a couple in real life,'' Rebecca stated.
''Is that so?'' Abi asked. Her eyes were still glued to the screen.
Rebecca nodded. ''Their girlfriend is the director. To make the scenes more authentic, they…let's just say she's not faking that moan.''
''Oh.''
The scene dragged on for ten agonizing minutes. Rebecca silently praised the film cast and crew. They really went all-out to ensure that the first sex scene would be memorable. And it was going to be the first of many, many scenes.
Rebecca and Abi watched the rest of the film with intrigue. Despite their obvious awkwardness whenever a hot scene began, they were still swept up in the drama of the film's story. It had everything. Forbidden romance. Hidden secrets. A slight reference to the director's other work hinted at a connection to another film they made.
''Why does everything have to be a cinematic universe?'' Rebecca grumbled.
She heard Abi snort, and the older woman leaned closer. ''I'm sure you know this, but Silver Eve is about to come out soon. Are you planning to see that?''
''I don't know. The Paragon Cinematic Universe hasn't been the same since The Hidden Wars.''
''That we agree on,'' Abi said and the two stared at each other and smiled in acknowledgement over their opinion.
However, the look was short-lived as the film they were watching had sharply cut to another sex scene and the room was filled with the sound of loud, erotic moaning. They quickly turned back to the TV and tried to keep their blushes hidden.
Before long, they were more than halfway through the film. The immense length and denseness of the story and character conflicts weren't too big of an issue as Rebecca had to admit that she was enjoying the experience. While it is true that she could have dealt without the occasional throbbing that she felt between her legs and the need to hide her excitement from Abi, she liked the time they were spending together. She could also see that Abi was loving it whenever she glanced in her direction. She tried not to laugh when Abi started getting teary-eyed at one particular scene.
''Don't worry, Jess doesn't die,'' Rebecca whispered.
''Oh, thank god,'' Abi sobbed and blew her nose on a bit of tissue that she had next to her. ''I was reminded of something I watched recently, and a character named Jess died in that and I've been heartbroken since.''
Soon, they were heading into the final hour. And that's when it happened. Rebecca felt like she was going to sink into the couch as they finally came upon the film's most infamous scene and the reason why Rebecca had heard of the film.
The traveller and the housewife had decided to let their sexual sides loose and came upon a neon-style brothel in the big city. Rebecca tried to marvel at other aspects of the film. She wanted to focus on the film's clean cinematography. The sensual score. The elegant editing. But, all she could think about was the background extras giving it their all as they went at it. There were no boundaries that weren't crossed as dozens of adults participated in the orgy, and the film's main couple was more than happy to get in on the action, especially with the women.
''How did this play in cinemas?'' Abi questioned.
''It didn't. It went straight to streaming. They can get away with a lot more.''
''That makes sense.''
The two went quiet as one particular scene was given much focus…the housewife deepthroating a well-endowed trans woman.
This was the moment that Rebecca had both been dreading and desiring. She would never pass on the opportunity to watch a love scene involving women that were like her. It was especially worthwhile as this was from a mainstream film with a considerable media buzz backing it up. But, why did it have to be tonight with her grandmother watching next to her? Neither of them could tear their eyes away as the film was now squarely focused on this scene. Like before, it wasn't acting. This was very real. The housewife's mouth glided up and down the woman's cock enthusiastically. Saliva and spit dribbled down the thick shaft. Other women soon joined in, slurping on the woman's balls and eliciting more delightful moans from her.
Rebecca wanted to comment on how this scene felt a bit exploitive and overly raunchy…but, she was enjoying it too much to care. But, what she did care about was her own reaction and trying to keep Abi from noticing. Her cock was throbbing uncontrollably as it yearned for attention. Rebecca wanted to place a pillow on her lap. But, if she did that, then Abi would certainly notice. However, if she looked at her, she would notice the bulge that was becoming quite prominent between Rebecca's legs. It was a lose-lose situation. All Rebecca could do was silently pray that Abi wouldn't turn. Thankfully, it seemed like Abi was too fixated on the scene to notice. Her eyes widened as she absorbed every detail. Rebecca could have sworn that at one point she saw Abi licking her lips. But, she chalked it off as something that happened in the scene.
''Are they going to show…'' Abi started muttering just as the scene reached its explosive finale with the woman cumming all over the housewife's face. ''Oh…they are.''
Rebecca thought about yesterday. For a split second, she replaced the scene on screen with what she saw in her mind…her standing over Abi after giving her the messiest facial she could muster. She squirmed in her seat and didn't say a word for the remainder of the film.
As the credits finally began to roll, Rebecca and Abi sat in heated silence. The only sound that could be heard alongside the movie's music was their heavy breathing.
''Thoughts?'' Rebecca squeaked.
''Unexpected…'' Abi stated. She still seemed to be processing what she had just watched. ''I'm happy that it was a lesbian film where the two women actually survived and got together at the end.''
''Yeah…''
''Although, they should have stayed in the town and made a home there.''
Rebecca faced her. ''What? But, it was hinting toward a future where they travelled the country together.''
''I know, but it felt like the film had a point to say about not running away from your past and making something new together. It just felt like it wasted that message by having them end it departing on that bus.''
''I get what you're saying, but they now feel free to explore the world like never before.''
Somehow, the erotic content was barely a talking point as the two debated over the rest of the film. They argued and chatted for what felt like hours. Yet, they still found the time to smile throughout as they remembered some of the movie's funnier moments. Rebecca didn't know how it was possible, but somehow her grandmother made everything feel so nice and easy. She would have been more than happy to spend the rest of the night talking with Abi. Unfortunately, that was cut short as the older woman glanced at the clock on the wall and gasped.
''Heavens, I know the film was long, but I didn't think we'd be up this late.''
''That's okay, I'd keep you up all night if I could…'' Rebecca said before she could stop herself.
Abi responded with an amused laugh. ''I'm sorry. I should have checked the film before making you watch it…''
''Hey, don't worry about that,'' Rebecca said. ''Apart from the…hot scenes, I had a blast watching it.''
''To be fair, I think those hot scenes added to the story. It's nice to see a film where an older woman actually gets to be loved and displayed in such an exciting way.''
''Yeah.''
They locked eyes and smiled once more. There was a brief moment where it seemed like they were leaning forward when Abi let out a long yawn. She stretched her arms and quickly rose to her feet. ''I'm exhausted. I'll leave you to it if you want to stay up a little longer.''
''That's okay, I think I'll be heading to bed too. Goodnight, Abi.''
''Goodnight, Rebecca.'' Abi smiled and walked out of the living room.
Once she was left alone, Rebecca grabbed the first pillow she could reach and smothered it onto her face. She groaned loudly, using the pillow to muffle the sound and not alert Abi. It felt like there were higher powers from above who were doing everything they could to make this summer as awkward and as frustrating as possible for her.
But, it did make Rebecca realize that Abi was the coolest woman she had ever met.
Why did they have to be related?
She let the pillow fall from her face. On the screen, Rebecca saw the traveller and the housewife going at it like rabbits once again. They were in a tent in the middle of the woods. Their silhouettes could be seen through the tent as the older woman was getting pounded from behind with a large strap-on, crying out in pleasure and begging for more. Rebecca wanted to curse the higher powers for continuing to torment her. Yet, she only had one thought when watching this scene.
''Seriously? Now romance films have post-credit scenes?''
