“Then we’re on the same page.”

Fucking my ‘straight’ stepsister. Great work, Liv!

They lay together for a while longer. Liv was relieved that Juliette had at least stopped crying, though her expression was still troubled.

“I should go.” Liv reluctantly disentangled herself from Juliette’s arms. “If you want to keep this secret from your mother, it won’t do to have her walking in on us naked in bed together.”

Juliette chuckled weakly. “Yeah, I somehow don’t think we’d manage to explain that away. It is a good job my bedroom is pretty separate from the rest of the house. Goodnight, Liv.”

“Goodnight, Juliette.”

Liv was still on cloud nine as she drifted to her bedroom.

When she and Juliette started this, she hadn’t been sure where it would go, but so far, it was going better than she had ever dreamed.

Messy? Sure. But, that didn’t phase Liv.

She couldn’t wait for what came next.

Juliette

“You two going out again?” Laura was eyeing them beadily, and Juliette felt a familiar flash of fear. Did her mother suspect anything? She and Liv had been going on a lot of dates together recently, but Laura had no reason to suspect they were dates. As far as she knew, Liv and Juliette were just good friends.

“Yeah, we were thinking of going to Joe’s,” Liv said lightly.

They weren’t going to Joe’s. They had reservations at a romantic, fancy restaurant, but Laura wasn’t to know that. Juliette knew that Liv was uncomfortable with lying, and appreciated that Liv did it anyway for her sake.

“Ok, well enjoy yourselves. Juliette, can I have a word before you go?”

“Sure.” Juliette told herself not to freak out. It was probably nothing.

She followed her mom through to the living room. “What’s up?”

“Juliette, you need to be careful around Liv.”

Julitte’s heart sank. “What are you talking about?”

“I see the way she looks at you. I think she wants you in a more… unsavory manner than just friendship.”

“Mom!” Juliette tried to hide her fear behind the indignant outburst that would have happened anyway at those words, even if she and Liv had been just friends. “Even if Liv did want me in that way, it wouldn’t be unsavory! Stop being a bigot.”

“But she looks at you like –”

“I don’t care how you think she looks at me. Liv and I are just friends. That’s it. But if she did like me as more than a friend, that would be ok. I would politely let her know that I didn’t return the interest and we’d continue as friends. Ok?”

“Yeah. Ok.” Her mom at least seemed reassured by this. Juliette couldn’t help wonder if she had been noticing the way she looked at Liv. If she noticed the way Liv was looking at her, it only made sense that she would see the looks going in the other direction.

They were going to have to be more careful, but Juliette wasn’t sure how. She couldn’t exactly avoid looking at Liv, and she had no idea how to modify what her eyes held to the view of another.

Liv was waiting for her at the door. They had their smart evening wear carefully packed into Liv’s car. They could hardly leave the house like that while pretending they were going to Joe’s.

Liv drove them to the local mall first, where they used the bathroom to get changed. Juliette reflected sadly that some people would find all the cloak-and-dagger exciting, but she just found it exhausting.

Liv was wearing some tight navy blue pants that made her ass look incredible and a low cut silk shirt that clung to her body. As usual, Liv was effortlessly cool and effortlessly sexy.

Fuck, she is so beautiful. And sexy. Fuck.
