It's a problem befitting all siblings, when ones needs overtakes the others creature comforts.Not that her boyfriend minded, he knew I had seen them a...t it, giving her a good doggy as I watched them and he watched me.Her room door was open and she was loud enough to wake the dead. The bottom of the bed, which faced the door, was high enough to obscure her vision, as I stood quietly on the stairs, peering through the space left by the solid banister, all he saw was my eyes, but that was all he. Two hundred days ago he'd announced to his family at the dinner table that he was signed up to take the Entrance exam for Starfleet Academy. His mother had cried, his father had nodded respectively, his brother had patted his back. A good choice, a strong career.

The tests had been grueling, some things so simple while others. It may sound terribly romantic and adventurous, but I assure you it isn't. I had no real desire to explore, even though I could tell the island was a large one.

So she just stayed there. And of course I fell madly in love with her. And there came a time when she came into the living room and suggested that the bed was big enough for both of us, and that I didn't have to sleep on the couch any more.It took me probably ten minutes to get up the courage to actually go in there. I was hard as a rock and had to walk bent over because my whole lower body was all tied up in knots.The very first words out of her mouth when I got into bed beside the very first.
