shouldn’t have to do that. Anyway everyone would just ask questions.”
    “Like they’re not going to ask anything when they
find out we’re siblings now?” Jaxon shrugged.
    “It’s too fucking weird. I mean—our parents have
basically screwed up both our lives with this. And now we have to be good and
not be interested in each other just because they decided to get married on a
whim.”
    “And they’re both going to be hounding us for the
rest of our lives about it, you know. Mom’s never going to forget walking in on
us.”
    “Dad’s never going to let me live it down, either.”
We both sighed.
    “We’re going around and around in circles. This
isn’t helping anything.” I shook my head.
    “I know,” Jaxon said. “It’s impossible. We both want
each other, but we can’t do anything about it.”
    “So we’re back to hoping Mom and Bob break up and
get divorced. Either their lives are ruined or our lives are screwed up.
There’s no solution. Fuck.”
    We both sat in silence again for a long time. I knew
I should leave; we weren’t getting anywhere talking about it, and the longer I
sat next to Jaxon the more I remembered how attracted to him I was. It was
incredibly stupid to spend time with him alone. It was even stupider to let
myself think of how hot he was, how incredibly awesome the sex had been. I
blushed as I remembered waking up after dreaming about him, laying in my bed
and getting myself off thinking about the times we’d had sex before. I couldn’t
do that to myself anymore. I’d have to just move on as best as I could, find some
other guy to have sex with, get Jaxon off of my mind. We’d both have to move
on. It wasn’t like we had any real choice in the
situation. Wishing both of our parents would just get tired of each other was
stupid; it was mean. Mom was happier with Bob than I’d seen her in years—how
could I wish for everything to end for her?
    I was so lost in thought that I didn’t even really
notice that Jaxon was still right there next to me, only inches away. I bit my
lip, thinking of him touching me, kissing me, his fingers rubbing me. I was
getting turned on and we hadn’t even done anything. I shook my head. I should
just get up and go back to my room, tell Jaxon that we had to move on. I told
myself I should think about someone other than myself for once.

    After the long silence, I nearly startled into the
pool when Jaxon finally spoke again. “Mia, if we kept seeing each other—would
it be worth it to you?” I grabbed the edge of the pool
to steady myself, taking a deep breath to slow down the pounding of my heart. I
shook my head—not to answer him, but to try and clear it.
    When I turned to look at Jaxon, I nearly started
again; he was even closer than before, his face only a few inches away from
mine, his lips right where I could kiss them. I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t even
think. Instead of answering him, I leaned in and pressed my lips to his.
Jaxon’s arms wrapped around me tightly, crushing my body against his, and as he
deepened the kiss, slipping his tongue past my lips, I felt my heart beating
faster. Jaxon’s hands started to move over my body, touching me everywhere,
tickling me as he slid them up along my waist to my ribs, up to my breasts. I
moaned against his lips, pressing my body against his, twisting and writhing
against him already. How could I have possibly tried to deny how attracted I
was to him?
    Jaxon pulled me down as he sunk onto the floor,
holding me against him. I felt his cock straining at the front of his swim
trunks as we began to writhe together, our hands wandering all over the place. I
forgot everything else in the world—I forgot about Mom and Bob, I forgot about
everyone working in the house, I forgot even where I was. Jaxon broke away from
my lips to kiss along the column of my throat, grazing my sensitive skin with
his teeth, nibbling sharply at the pulse spot under my jaw before he moved
