makes herself comfortable on the couch, resting her head against my shoulder.
“Is this okay?” she asks nervously. I nod my head and lift my arm so that she can get a little more comfortable. I covertly take a deep whiff of her hair. She smells like apples and cinnamon, and another natural, feminine scent. My heart speeds up a little at the close contact. Her breathing becomes slow and even and she’s snoring by the time the narrator meets Tyler Durden on the airplane.
I easily scooped up her tiny body and carried her to her bedroom. Tucking her into bed, I leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek. Returning to the living room, I turned off the movie, and left a note on her coffee table before slipping out into the quiet night.

The smell of coffee pulls me from a dreamless sleep. I roll over, confused. I don’t remember going to bed at all. The last thing I remember is starting a movie with Dex. He must have put me in my bed once I fell asleep. My heart squeezes a little at the thoughtfulness of that act. I think back on how shamelessly I threw myself at him last night and his blatant brush off. I feel absolutely mortified.
I can honestly say I’ve never been rebuffed like that before. But then he’d stayed and we talked. I actually had a good time just hanging out. My stomach dips at the memory of him smiling at me, rubbing my feet, talking about his mom. Shit, this is such a bad idea. He’s too good of a guy for me. I’m not anybody’s girlfriend. I’m the girl guys fuck before they go home to their girlfriends. I know who I am. I know that I don’t have anything to offer anyone, outside of sex of course. The sooner Dex realizes that, the better it will be for both of us.
My door creaks open and Nikki peeks her head in. When she sees that I’m awake she takes a running leap into the bed. I curl up to protect myself from getting creamed by her flying body and then we both start giggling as she lands with a bounce.
“Up and at ‘em sleepy head,” Nikki commands in a sing song voice.
“Why? It’s Saturday,” I whine and pull the covers over my head.
“Aw are you sleepy from getting plowed all night?” Nikki asks with a knowing smile.
“I fucking wish. He was all gentlemanly and sweet,” I complained, rolling my eyes.
“So he fucked you all respectfully?”
“No, I mean he didn’t fuck me at all.”
“If you’re about to say that you guys ‘made love’ I’m going to demand to know who you are and what you did with my sister.”
I grab a pillow and hit her over the head playfully with it.
“No, dipshit! I mean there was no sex. No penis in vagina action.” She opens her mouth with a wicked smile and I cut her off before she can say what’s clearly on her mind. “Or the mouth or the ass. His dick was nowhere near me...unfortunately.”
“Huh, the way you two were looking at each other at the bar, I thought he was a sure thing. Maybe he has a girlfriend?” she says. My gut clenches at the idea of him with another girl.
“God I hope not,” I groan.
“Not like that’s stopped you before,” she points out with a laugh.
God damn I’m such a filthy skank. I seriously hate myself. She’s right though, I’ve never cared if a guy I was fucking had a girlfriend or not. But Dex is too good. If he has a girlfriend, I want to picture him as a loyal, loving boyfriend.
“Shut up, I’m sleepy and horny and I hate you.” I bury my face in my hands and kick my legs like a child.
“Well, no wonder you’re so crabby this morning then. Do you need a few minutes with Edwardo?” she asks, cocking her head at my night stand where I keep my vibrator which she so hilariously named Edwardo.
“No, I just need coffee.” I roll out of bed and head to the kitchen with her right on my heels.
“So what’s up my lovely sister?” I ask once I am equipped with my large cup of coffee.
“I have some amazing news,” She says, practically bouncing on her heals.
“Are you
