"Oh, come on, Joseph… please?" Janis looked into her brother's eyes and pouted her lip a little. She had her arms wrapped around him and held him tight.
"I wish I could stay, Janis, but I've missed work the past two days already."
She lowered her head onto his chest and faked crying. Joseph laughed and hugged her back. Janis was really sad that he had to work tonight, but she understood. Joseph had called in sick for the past few nights so he could spend more time with her, but he thought one more time might be jeopardizing his job.
"I still have an hour before I have to go… what do you want to do?"
She looked at him and pouted her bottom lip again, "Nothing," she teased, "I don't want to do anything!" She quickly reached down and grabbed his shorts yanking them down around his ankles.
Joseph gasped, "What the…?"
Janis jumped back and pointed at him laughing. She quickly turned and ran down the hall. Joseph bent and grabbed for his shorts trying to run after her and pull them back up at the same time.
"Oh you're going to get it now," he screamed as her giggles filled the house. He finally got his shorts back up and ran after her at full speed.
~
The past three months have been a blur to Janis and Joseph. Their lives became so much more complicated since they had first experienced each other's love. It was tricky trying not only to find time to be alone together, but also trying to keep it secret. Their parents and everyone that knew Janis or Joseph had become suspicious, but it wasn't a cause for alarm. They all knew Janis and Joseph had always been tight so it was not unusual for them to spend a lot of time together, but those times together have become a lot more frequent lately. Even their mother had asked Janis why she needed to spend all of her time with her brother, but Janis just shrugged her shoulders and told her mom that she had a lot of fun with Joseph.
Those times together, however, were more than fun. Janis and Joseph were very serious about being alone together. It was the time when they didn't have to act like brother and sister for everyone. It was those times they could act like the intensely romantic couple they had become. It was not just about making love, although they both enjoyed it very much. Being alone gave them the opportunity to talk about how each other is doing, or to talk about future plans, or even just to get to know each other better than they already had.
Janis was more the playful type, though. She took chances that scared Joseph sometimes. A few days ago they went to a nice restaurant with their parents. Janis sat on Joseph's right side with her left hand under the table caressing the inside of his thigh. Every once in a while she would gently squeeze his swollen cock through his pants. It drove Joseph nuts because she kept him constantly hard throughout the entire dinner. She knew what she was doing to him, and loved to tease him like that.
Janis lived in the clouds all the time now. She was never seen unhappy or depressed about anything and she often acted like she didn't care if anybody knew why. Joseph matched her feelings but sometimes had to be the sensible one trying to keep their love private. Controlling Janis, however, was hard to do. He was afraid that she would eventually give them away if she didn't calm down a bit.
~
Joseph finally caught up to Janis in her bedroom. She backed into the corner when she saw him. She was still laughing at him. Joseph smiled and lunged at her wrapping his arms around her thighs. She screamed when he picked her up. She laughed again and was pounding her fists on his shoulders.
"Put me down," she yelled.
He carried her across the room and dropped her on her bed. She smiled hard and reached up to him. Joseph shook his head.
"No!"
"Come here and kiss me, Joseph!" Janis reached out farther to him.
"What? I can't be kissing my own sister!" He crossed his arms in mock disgust.
She sat up and grabbed Joseph's shirt. "You will do what I say!" She pulled him on top of her and they both laughed.
Joseph slid his hands behind her head and pulled her up to his lips. Janis kissed him hard and reached under the back of his shirt to drag her nails along his back. He moved one of his hands from behind her head and slipped it under her shirt. Joseph felt her smooth belly and reached further up to her chest. Janis felt his groin pushing down on hers. She knew he was growing hard and couldn't wait to touch it.
Suddenly Joseph stopped and rolled off the bed. "I'm sorry… I should probably get ready for work." He turned and headed to her bedroom door.
"What?" Janis sat up and watched him. Joseph left her room and a few seconds later she heard the bathroom door close. She couldn't believe he had just left. Janis jumped off her bed and angrily marched toward the closed bathroom door. She decided not to knock and just listened to what he was doing. A minute later she heard the shower running. Janis was getting mad now and she put her hand on the doorknob. It was unlocked, so she barged in.
The bathroom was dimly lit because Joseph had obviously forgotten to turn on the light. Janis stomped toward the shower and threw open the curtains. Inside was Joseph, completely nude and smiling at her. Janis looked at him and saw his swollen cock pointing at her.
"I wondered if you would follow me." Joseph grabbed his sister and pulled her into the shower. Janis screamed as she felt the warm water soak into her clothes. He held her close to him and kissed her neck.
Janis couldn't help but laugh. "I was so mad when you left me and came in here. You probably had this in mind all along."
"I just wanted to find a way to get you in the shower with me."
Janis was not about to give in without a fight. "Well, Joseph. I guess I'll be going now." She wanted him to work for it. "Have a nice shower."
Janis started to get out and Joseph grabbed her. "Hey… where are you going?"
"Oh… I'll be in my room if you need me." She grabbed his hand and pulled it off her. Once out of the shower, Janis closed the curtain. She quickly pulled off her wet clothes and tossed them aside. When she was completely naked she turned back toward the shower. She was surprised that he had not opened the curtains again. Janis had hoped he would have chased after her. He knew she was still in the bathroom, though. So she grabbed the doorknob and jiggled it to make it sound like she was leaving.
"Janis wait!" The curtains flew open again and Joseph looked out. He saw her standing there completely nude. Joseph looked into her eyes and she winked at him. "You are awful, you know that?"
"Yes I am." Janis walked back to him and got in the shower again. She closed the curtains behind her and threw her arms around Joseph. She held and kissed him very passionately. "So… now that you have me here, what do want to do?"
"Everything." Joseph rubbed his hands along her back feeling the smooth wetness of her skin. He loved the way her body looked and felt when she was wet. He stepped behind her and turned her to face him so that she was in the full stream of the shower. Janis closed her eyes and ran her fingers through her hair. The water was wonderfully warm and Joseph watched as it poured onto her hair and down the length of her body. He reached out with both hands and cupped her breasts with them. Janis moaned and put her hands on his, helping him stroke her hard nipples. Joseph leaned forward and began to suck gently on her neck. She released her hands from his and reached around his body. Janis put her hands on the lower part of his back and pulled him in closer. His throbbing hard-on was now pressing against her belly. Janis knew that if she wasn't already wet she could probably have felt his pre-cum smearing along her stomach.
Joseph squeezed her breasts harder and Janis groaned at his touch. She leaned into him and softly bit along his shoulder and up to his neck. She did this for a minute until Joseph could no longer stand it. He slid his hands down to her waist and dropped to his knees. He moved his hands farther down to her thighs and gently spread them apart. He could now see her beautiful cunt and watched as the streams of water fell between her legs. He leaned in and started to kiss the insides of her thighs. It sent shivers through Janis's body. Joseph kissed all around her groin trying to increase her excitement until he finally pushed into her and kissed the folds of her lips. Janis shivered and immediately put her hands behind his head. She held him there and tried to guide his kisses to where she needed them. Joseph felt her needing him more so he finally slipped out his tongue and used it to play with the enlarged nub above her slit. She shivered again and held his head tighter.
"Oh, Joseph." She purred and ran her fingers through his hair. Janis looked down and watched him. Joseph slowly licked and sucked on her nub. She felt his hands slightly tickling the outsides of her thighs. One of his hands eventually made its way to her groin and she felt one of his fingers probing the outsides of her lips.
Joseph slowly slid his middle finger into her pussy. Janis moaned and closed her eyes again. He bit softly at her clit and Janis started to rock her hips to match the movements of his finger. Her body started to tingle as she felt the pleasure rising through her body. He continued to suck and bite on her nub while he pumped his finger into her faster. He kept going faster and faster until she could no longer stand still. Her legs went weak and Janis had to grab the showerhead to keep from falling. His tongue was fiercely stroking her clit and she felt his finger probe deep within her. It didn't take long until the orgasm raced through her body.
Janis shrieked and involuntarily clenched his head between her legs. Waves of ecstasy shot through her veins making her dizzy with excitement. Joseph removed his finger and grabbed her backside to keep her steady. His tongue found it's way inside her and he licked as far as he could into her cunt. Janis' body shook under control of her orgasm that seemed endless.
Finally Joseph slowed his tongue and he tasted the outsides of her pussy. Janis felt really dizzy once her ecstasy subsided. She released her grasp from the showerhead but unfortunately her legs couldn't hold her. Joseph fell backwards into the tub as Janis collapsed onto him. He caught her and wrapped his arms around her. Janis rested her head on his chest and tried to speak but couldn't; she needed to catch her breath first.
Joseph massaged her back while she laid on him. Janis was breathing hard and her ears were ringing. She decided to lay there on Joseph for a while to try and savor the moment as long as she could.
The tub was too small for Joseph to spread out in so he had to prop his feet up on the edge. Janis was starting to relax finally and he reached his hand up to stroke her hair. She surprised him by finally speaking.
"I'm going to marry you someday, Joseph. You know that?"
Joseph couldn't believe what he heard. "What?"
Janis raised her head off his chest to look at him. "I said that I want to marry you." She was almost as surprised as he was to hear the words coming out of her mouth.
"I don't think we're allowed to do that, Janis."
"I don't want to live the rest of our lives as just brother and sister. There has to be a way we can do it."
Janis' eyes conveyed the seriousness of her words. Joseph, however, was speechless. Did his own sister just ask him to marry her? He almost passed out at the thought.
"I…" he tried to speak but couldn't find the words.
Janis lifted herself up a little and slid her hand down his chest to his groin. She found his hardened cock and stroked it softly. Joseph found it hard to concentrate on what she had just said to him. His cock twitched under the touch of her soft hand. He looked at her face and she flashed him that sweet sexy smile that always melted his heart. Janis moved herself lower and released her hand from his penis. She lowered more and felt his tip slightly parting the folds of her pussy. She teased him for a minute gently pushing herself down until just the tip of his cock was in her. She then lifted back up letting the tip slip out. She repeated this a few more times and Joseph had put his hands on her hips trying to force him farther in to her. Janis smiled at him again and finally rested herself on him and his cock slid deep inside. Joseph held his breath as he felt the warmth of her. He pushed himself up slightly and into her further. Janis was motionless and just felt him slowly pump himself into her. The shower was starting to loose it's heat but neither cared at this point.
Janis started to push herself down on his cock. She tried to synchronize with his thrusts. Her cunt itched as she felt his groin slide along her clit. Joseph held her body against his while the shower slowly turned colder. The cold water caused them to hold each other tighter. Janis shivered from the cold yet it excited her more. Joseph began to shiver too; his love making intensified the colder it became. Soon the water was almost freezing and Janis and Joseph powerfully thrashed against each other. Their mouths pressed tightly together and all of their hands quickly searched every inch of each other's body. The wetness caused sucking sounds as they released and collided their hips together.
Joseph felt the burn in his cock and knew he wouldn't last much longer. Janis wasn't far behind; her body shook and she couldn't tell if it was from the cold or from the electrified pleasure Joseph's lovemaking sent through her body. After a few seconds Joseph grabbed at her ass and pushed himself hard up into her. He stopped his movements and held onto her with his cock buried as far as it would go. Joseph gasped as he felt his penis swell with his juices.
Janis continued to grind her clit along his groin when she felt the hot cum burst inside her. She screamed when she felt her own pussy convulse around his cock. Joseph looked into her eyes while his cock filled her with his cum. Janis moaned, "I love you," to Joseph when she felt the shock wave of her own orgasm. She stopped moving and felt her pussy squeeze around his cock. Joseph began to relax, but his cum still pulsed inside her. She laid her head back on his chest and held his head with her hands. Joseph felt his penis release the last of it's load and he wrapped his arms around her. He held her tight and stroked her hair.
Janis felt very cold suddenly and lifted up to turn off the shower. Once it was no longer running she fell back into his arms. She felt she could fall asleep in the shower lying on him if she wanted to.
They laid together for a few minutes, neither said anything. Eventually Janis lifted her head from his chest and kissed him sweetly. She suddenly spoke.
"I'll be yours forever, Joseph… if you want me."
Joseph didn't hesitate to respond, "Of course I want you, but I'm…" he couldn't find the right words.
Janis, boldly, asked her question again. "Joseph, will you marry me?"
This time he did hesitate. Janis thought she knew why, but couldn't help to be a little disappointed at his lack of response. Finally Joseph opened his mouth as though he was about to speak. Janis quickly got off of him and stood to open the shower curtains. She was hurt and she knew she didn't want to hear what he was about to say.
Joseph had lifted up on his elbows. His mouth was still open as he watched her open the curtains and step out.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm drying off." Her tone wasn't good.
"Janis… I,"
She cut him off, "Joseph, you're going to be late for work if you don't hurry."
He stood to his feet and stepped out of the shower. Joseph stood there for a moment and watched his sister dry herself. The wetness and the light through the bathroom window caused her skin to shine. He watched the towel gently stroke her smooth body. He knew he had hurt her and felt his heart sink to his stomach. Joseph stepped toward her and took her hand. She looked at him with tearful eyes.
A knock on the door startled them. Janis' eyes grew wide suddenly.
"Hey Joseph, are you in there?" It was their mother.
"Joseph?" Janis whispered, fear in her face. She wondered what her mom was doing home.
Joseph panicked and threw a towel around his body. "What do we do?" His voice was too loud.
"Shut up." Janis whispered again, but this time her mother heard the second voice through the door.
"Joseph!" Their mother had an angry voice. "Who is in there with you?!"
"Be out in a minute!" Joseph screamed at the door.
"Open this door now!" She pounded her fists against the locked bathroom door.
"Just a minute, mom!"
"Joseph, you better not have some girl in there with you!"
"What's going on?" Janis and Joseph heard their father's voice farther away. Neither of them could figure out why both of their parents were home so soon. They listened to their father's footsteps come closer to the bathroom, then mumbling as their parents talked to each other. Janis had managed to gather some of her clothes and had slid her bra and panties on. Joseph stood still with the towel around his waist.
More banging on the door by their father now, "Open this door, Joseph!"
Joseph walked to the door and put his hand on the knob.
"Wait Joseph!" Janis stepped back into the shower and closed the curtains. There was just no other place to hide.
Joseph watched his sister disappear behind the curtains and finally opened the door.
"What do you want?" he couldn't control his nervous shaking as he suddenly faced his parents.
"Who the hell is in there?" His father looked at him with piercing eyes.
"Nobody, just me." Joseph stepped out of the bathroom suddenly causing his parents to step back out of the way. He tried to close the door behind him but his mother threw her foot in the way. His father punched the door back open with the palm of his hand. Joseph was pushed out of the way as his parents stormed into the bathroom.
His mother was the first to speak. "I know what's going on in here… where is she?!" She looked at Joseph with an angry glance.
His father stomped over to the shower, "I wonder where she could be?" he threw open the curtains. Neither parent was prepared for what hid behind and both had to take a step back.
"Jan!" Their mother cupped her hands over her mouth as she stared at her half naked daughter.
"Joseph!" Their father glanced back and forth between Janis and Joseph , unable to comprehend what was going on. His eyes finally stopped on Joseph, "What the hell is going on?!"
"I…" Joseph was terrified and unable to speak. He looked at Janis hopping she would be able to explain this all away.
Janis looked at her brother and saw the fear and confusion in his face. She knew she was going to have to be strong for both of them. She moved her gaze back to her mother's angry face.
"Joseph and I are in love!"
"Oh no…" Joseph turned away and looked at the floor. That wasn't exactly the explanation he was hoping Janis would give. He couldn't believe she just told them.
"What are you talking about?!" Her father fixed his gaze back on Janis.
Janis stepped out of the shower and spoke again to her mother, " Joseph and I love each other… that's the only thing I can say."
"I don't believe this." Their mother stepped away from Janis and turned to look at Joseph. "Have you two been having sex, Joseph?"
"I guess so." He didn't even look up.
His father snapped at Janis, "How could you do that to Joseph?! To your own brother?!"
"I didn't do anything he didn't want!" Janis' voice quivered, she looked at Joseph for support, but he was quiet. "If we love each other it can't be wrong!"
Their mother lowered her head and started to cry. "I can't believe what is happening. Don't you kids realize what you're doing?"
Janis watched as Joseph stood silently. " Joseph, aren't you going to say something?" Then she mouthed silently to him, "Help me, please."
"You leave him alone!" Her father yelled at her, "Haven't you done enough?!"
Their mother shot him an angry look, "It's not entirely Janis' fault!"
"She should've known better! She's the oldest!" His father walked over to Joseph. "Go to work, we'll talk when you get home."
Joseph walked out of the bathroom and entered his bedroom. Janis watched him leave her alone and tried not to cry.
"Get dressed, Jan." Her mother hissed and both parents walked out of the bathroom.
Janis walked to the bathroom door and looked down the hall. Joseph's bedroom door was shut. She closed and locked the bathroom door and sat on the tiled floor. Through her sobbing she could still hear her mother and father yelling at each other somewhere in the house. A few minutes later she listened as Joseph's door opened. Seconds later she heard a soft knock on the bathroom door. Janis stood and wiped her tears.
"Joseph?" She whispered through the closed door. She put her hand on the knob. Suddenly her father yelled.
"Joseph, go to work!"
Janis heard soft footsteps walk away from the bathroom door, then the front door opened and slammed shut. She suddenly felt very alone.
~
That night was by far the worst night at work Joseph ever had. He couldn't concentrate on anything and had to spend most of the time away from his co-workers. They were obviously concerned about him and everyone had asked if he was okay. Joseph had called in sick for his three previous shifts and now, back at work, looked horribly ill. His boss finally sent him home after four hours of torture. Joseph wasn't sure he wanted to go home.
When he arrived and walked to the front door he noticed the house was dimly lit except for the light in the kitchen. He opened the front door and quietly walked into the house. He made his way to the kitchen and heard voices. First his mother's, then Janis', then his father's, then Janis again. She was being drilled. He slowly walked closer until he could see the three of then sitting at the table. His mother and father had their backs to him, but he could see Janis' face. Her cheeks were red and her eyes puffy. She had obviously been crying for some time.
He took another step and the floor creaked slightly. All three looked back at him.
"Joseph!" Janis stood and ran to him. She threw her arms around him and Joseph hugged back. She buried her head into his shoulder and Joseph felt the wet heat of her teary cheeks.
"Stop it!" Their father stood up fast causing the chair he was in to fall crashing to the floor. "What did we just talk about?!" He stomped over to them and physically separated their embrace causing Janis to fall to the floor.
"Don't hurt her!" Their mother was now standing and walking over to Janis. She helped Janis back to her feat and turned to Joseph, "We've been talking to Jan about this… you need to stay away from her."
"You can't keep us apart!" Janis screamed at her.
"We can and will!" Their father screamed back.
Janis looked at Joseph who was standing against the wall now, looking confused. "They want to send us to a shrink, Joseph."
"What?" Joseph finally spoke.
His mother walked over to him and put her hand on his shoulder. "Because you are both confused. You may feel like you love her, but it's just not right Joseph."
"We are both adults, mother, you can't tell us what's right and wrong anymore!" Janis fought against the anger that stirred inside her belly, but she was starting to loose the fight.
Her father scowled at her, "You are still our children and you will do what we say if you are to live under our roof!"
Janis lowered her head and sighed. She felt ashamed that at twenty years old her parents still had control of her life. They gave her a home and paid for her education. She was unable to gain her own independence while relying on them so much.
"We'll talk after you meet with Dr. Sanders." Their father walked down the hall. "Go to bed, we'll wake you both up in the morning." He stood between their bedrooms and motioned for them to follow.
Joseph noticed something odd as he walked to his bedroom, the doorknob has been replaced with one that had a lock. He looked closer and saw the lock was on the outside of his room. Joseph looked around and saw his father forcing Janis into her room. Once she was in his father slammed the door and turned the lock. It clicked and now Janis was locked inside.
"What is this?" Joseph asked. His mother had walked down the hall and faced him.
"We have to control your behavior to make sure this doesn't happen anymore."
His father waved his hand toward Joseph's room. "This is for your own good, hopefully you will realize how sick and wrong it is for you to be sexual with your sister."
Joseph walked into his bedroom and turned to face his parents, "You can't do this… what if I have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night?"
"I'm sure you'll figure something out." His father slammed the door.
Joseph heard the click as his father locked the door to his room. Joseph grabbed the knob and tried to turn it. He was locked in. He listened through the wall and could hear his sister crying. This was going to be the longest night of his life.
~
Janis and Joseph were both woken up fairly early the next morning. Neither had gotten much sleep. After an awkward breakfast and an even more awkward car ride they found themselves in the office of Dr. Sanders. They both knew Dr. Sanders, he was a counsel for their parents back when it seemed as though they might get a divorce. He helped their parents to straighten things out, somehow, and their mother and father had remained married.
"Well, it's nice to see both of you again." Dr. Sanders spoke from behind his desk. Janis and Joseph sat in chairs that had once been side by side, but now obviously separated by a couple of feet. "So, who wants to speak first?"
They both sat silent.
"Well, I guess I can start with you, Janis. What do you want to talk about?"
Janis looked at him and saw a gaze that seemed half concerned and yet half intrusive. "Our parents caught us together and they freaked out."
"It seems understandable, Janis. Can you blame them?"
"Yes I can blame them," she stood and walked over to Joseph, grabbing his hand. "I can blame them for getting in the way!"
"In the way of what?"
"In our way!"
The doctor walked around to the front of his desk and rested himself on the edge. "Janis, you are forcing your family against each other. Can that be right?"
"I don't want to hear what you people tell me is right!" Janis squeezed Joseph's hand tighter. "I am an adult… and Joseph is an adult! What is right and wrong in our lives should be decided by us!"
"Janis, this is not a trial here. You really don't have to be hostile."
She managed to calm herself down a little. Janis released Joseph's hand and sat back down in her chair. She looked over at Joseph and saw him looking back at her. He hadn't spoken a word this entire time in Dr. Sander's office. Janis felt a little betrayed by his silence.
"Joseph…" She spoke to her brother, "I'm getting a bit frustrated at you being so quiet all the time. Can't you please help me?"
"I'm scared, okay!" His voice trembled, "I didn't expect this!"
"What did you think would happen when people found out about us?"
"I didn't think they would ever find out!" Joseph shuffled nervously in his chair. He was upset at himself for letting Janis down once again, but he felt completely unprepared for any of this. He really never took the time to think about what would happen if they had been discovered. In fact, he was still angry that Janis had been so quick to confess about their secret love.
Dr. Sanders approached Janis, "Maybe it would be easier for me to speak to you both one at a time."
"No," Janis stood again, "I want Joseph here."
"Well, I was thinking of talking to Joseph alone first." He turned to Joseph and walked to his chair. "What do you think, Joseph? Will you talk to me alone?"
Joseph immediately looked over to Janis and saw her shaking her head at him. "I don't know…"
"It will be okay," The doctor continued, "you're not in any trouble here. I just want to help you." Dr. Sanders reached out and put his hand on Joseph's shoulder.
Joseph looked at the doctor's hand resting on his right shoulder and again looked up at Janis. Her face still said no, but she wasn't shaking her head anymore. "I guess it would be okay."
"Janis…" Dr. Sanders released his hand from Joseph's shoulder and spoke to her, "Why don't you wait outside for a few minutes while I talk to your brother?"
Janis reluctantly walked toward the door of the office and stopped briefly to look back at Joseph. She frowned at him and walked out slamming the door behind her. She walked to a row of waiting chairs and sat on the one closest to the office door. She hoped she would be able to hear the voices inside, but the door was too thick. Janis felt like crying again, but she held back. She didn't want to let go, not right now.
~
"So what your saying is… your relationship with your dad has always been good, but you have always felt very distant from your mom?" Dr. Sanders questioned Joseph.
"That is what I have always felt." Joseph had spent the better part of an hour in Dr. Sander's office. He answered question after question as honestly as he could. The main focus of the doctor's questions was not about Janis, but surprisingly more about his relationships with his parents. He mentioned to Dr. Sanders that he had always been very close to his father, but had never really felt loved by his mother. His mother, however, was always very close to Janis and Joseph felt left out of his mother's life. Dr. Sanders really seemed to know what he was talking about.
"Joseph, this is not an unusual situation." The doctor rested on the front of his desk facing Joseph. He crossed his arms and spoke to him with years of knowledge, "Cases of incest have been the most predominate cases that I've had to work with and recent studies show that sibling incest probably occurs the most, but it is also the least likely to be reported."
Joseph nodded his head but failed to understand. He questioned the doctor, "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is that any kind of incest can cause problems in a person's life, and even be completely detrimental to some. The cases of incest that are usually reported involve parents and their children, but cases involving siblings being sexually active with each other hardly ever get reported. That is not to say, however, that these cases don't have the same negative effect on someone that parent-child incest does. Sibling incest is probably the most common, but out of fear, or out of love, the victims of sibling incest rarely come forward."
"I am in love with Janis… I don't feel anything wrong about what I feel." Joseph didn't like what he was hearing. His love for her was different than some statistic could define.
"I don't expect you to feel wrongly about what you have done," Dr. Sanders continued, "But, could it be possible that what you desire from Janis could be a direct result of the fact that you never felt loved by your mother. Your mother obviously loves Janis very much, and maybe your subconscious feels that by being so intimate with your sister may replace the absence of love your mother never gave you? Maybe you feel that through Janis you will finally be able to acquire your mother's love."
Joseph lowered his head almost down to his knees. He rubbed his head with his hand trying to take in the observations the doctor had given him. Dr. Sanders made sense, Joseph couldn't dismiss that. He felt so right being with his sister, but the doctor was fiercely punching holes in Joseph's mind.
Dr. Sanders saw the confusion overwhelm Joseph and knew he was on the right track. "What do you think about Janis? Do you wonder now that maybe the lack of love your father gave her might have caused her to seek his love through you? Your father had given you his love, but it seems as though he really put you first and maybe loved her second."
"I really don't know what to think about all this," Joseph mumbled, "I guess you must be right."
"So the key must be, Joseph, to fix the broken relationship with your parents. Specifically the mother that was so cold towards you most of your life."
Joseph's eyes began to water. "How can I do that?" His voice trembled.
Dr. Sanders knelt next to Joseph's chair and put his hand on the boy's shoulder. "I can help you. Will you let me help you?"
Joseph nodded yes and the tears finally broke through. "What about Janis?"
"I'll talk with her and then we'll all talk together with your parents here. This situation isn't totally your problem or Janis'. It must involve the entire family in order for the healing to begin."
~
Janis had been sitting patiently for the better part of an hour. She was dying to know what was being said in that office. Finally she had forced herself to calm down a bit when suddenly the door flew open.
"Joseph!" Janis stood and faced her brother. The look on his face was wrong. No expression was visible. He seemed blank, robot-like in his gaze. Janis could only imagine what sort of mind-control techniques this doctor has used on him. Even his eyes seemed empty. "What's wrong?"
He just stared at her shaking his head. Janis knew the doctor had gotten to him. Joseph started to walk toward her and Janis opened herself a little expecting him to embrace her maybe, but he didn't. Instead his eyes left hers as he walked right by and headed for the exit.
"Where are you going?!" Janis turned to watch him open the front door. He paused for a second and finally turned to face her.
"Sorry," was all he could say. He walked outside and very softly, almost without any sound, shut the door behind him.
"Are you ready, Janis?"
She turned and saw Dr. Sanders now standing in his office doorway.
~
As expected, things that evening at home were horrendously awkward. Janis and Joseph now sat at the dinner table at opposite sides. Neither looked at each other but chose to stare down at the barely-eaten food on their plates. Nobody spoke, not even their parents. No one seemed all that hungry tonight. Everyone poked and prodded at their portion of chicken casserole hoping it would magically eat itself.
It did not go well for the doctor during Janis' session. He had given her the same spiel about the loveless parents and her somehow finding the love she was missing in the wrong place. She didn't buy into it. She thought the whole speech was crap. "Daddy didn't love me," she had said, "so I guess I'll screw my brother." It didn't make sense, any of it.
"Of course," Dr. Sanders had replied, "this will not be easy to accept. Not until you are at least willing to admit how wrong your actions have been."
"Is this what you told Joseph? Did he buy all this?"
"Joseph seemed eager to correct his mistakes."
That last word had hurt Janis. Is that what Joseph had said? Did he think it was all a mistake? She envisioned herself as the monster imposing her will on her brother. No… she wasn't. He wanted her just as much, right?
"The only mistake," she had finally said, "was getting caught."
"What did you expect, Janis? To be with Joseph forever? To get married? Have his children?"
"I don't want to talk about that, doctor." She had spoken the word doctor with such sarcasm in her voice that Dr. Sanders almost winced.
Never did she accept what he was saying, nor did she even care. The truth was they got caught. And the only reason she was talking to the doctor was fear of what her parents would do. She lived under their roof, they paid for her school. They would probably disown her if she didn't do what she was told now. Janis had made all this very clear to Dr. Sanders during the hour-long session. By the end he seemed frustrated. Worn out even.
Janis now managed to look up from her dinner plate. She saw Joseph staring at his food and she quickly looked away. Their parents had been remarkably quiet most of the night and she didn't want to start it all up again by being caught staring at her brother.
"I'm going to bed." Janis started to get up from the table when her mother stopped her.
"Finish your food."
"I'm really not very hungry, mom."
"At least eat your vegetables."
"I'm not ten years old, mom! I don't want to eat!"
"Do what you're told!" Her dad snapped.
"Fine." Janis set the plate back down and tried to force the mushy, warm broccoli into her mouth.
"Joseph," their father spoke again, "I want you to pack up as much as you can and be ready to go in an hour."
"Where am I going?" Joseph looked up from his plate.
"I don't think this is such a good idea." Their mother said, visibly upset.
"Where am I going?" Joseph asked again.
"We already talked about this, let's not change our minds again." The father speaking to the mother while ignoring Joseph's question again.
"We never really agreed on anything!" Their mother yelled, "I don't want anyone to leave!"
"Where am I going?!" Joseph screamed.
"Where is he going?!" Janis repeated. Her voice got the attention of the whole family. Now all eyes were on her and she couldn't ignore the anger in the faces of her parents.
"You just keep out of this, Janis." The father spoke. "This is all your damn fault anyway."
"What?!" Janis was furious.
"I guess Joseph will be staying with Uncle Jesse for a while." The mom was speaking quietly again.
"For how long?" Joseph asked.
"Until things return to normal around here," father responded. "Until you two learn the difference between right and wrong."
"Oh that's right," Janis clenched up with anger, "we're stupid little kids that have no idea of right and wrong."
"That's it!" Their father stood up and slammed his palms on the table. He slowly leaned in to where Janis was sitting, locking eyes with her. "You know what's right?" He spoke quietly, but as if holding all of hell's rage somewhere behind his clenched teeth. "You know what's right? Fucking your brother… is that right? Your mom and I did not work our asses off trying to raise a good family only to have this sort of bullshit going on behind our backs. Just what the fuck has gotten into you two?"
Janis was trembling with fear. She could not look into her father's eyes anymore. When she glanced away she saw the same terror on her mother's face. Never has anyone heard her father talk like that before, with such language and an almost murder-like inflection in his voice.
"It's okay," Joseph added softly, "I'll go. I will pack my things right now and go." He got up from the table and started to walk away.
"No Joseph," Janis looked at him then met her father's angry gaze again. "I'll go." She had to get out of there, somehow. She felt threatened and had to retreat. She understood immediately what she was saying, what she was about to do. Janis will lose everything, her home, her education, her family. Was it worth it? Maybe her own stubbornness was preventing her from seeing the larger picture.
"You're not going anywhere," her mother said, "Uncle Jesse is expecting Joseph to stay with him."
"I wasn't planning on going to Uncle Jesse's house."
"Where, then?" Her father asked. "Where will you go?"
"None of your business."
"You'll be back…"
"Don't plan on it!" Janis stood and walked fast, away from the table, past Joseph and towards her room. She heard her father yelling at her but ignored it.
"You'll come back, and when you do you will find nothing here for you! No forgiveness, ever! We don't have a daughter…" his voice trailed off as Janis slammed the door shut in her bedroom. She started to cry but never stopped moving, quickly snatching the suitcase out of her closet and stuffing as much clothes out of her dresser and closet that she could into it.When she was done and while trying to close the over-stuffed case she heard the click behind her. "Oh shit!" She turned and looked at the door knowing immediately that someone had locked her in from outside her room.
~
Joseph was commanded by his father to go pack as planned. He would be the one leaving after all. As he walked through the house to his room he heard Janis screaming and pounding on the door from inside her bedroom.
"Open this door!" She screamed between pounds. "Let me out!"
Joseph saw his mother standing outside Janis' room sobbing. She did not make her presence known to Janis after locking her in, but just stood there listening to her daughter yell and watching the door rattle with the hits by Janis on the other side.
He entered his room and decided not to shut his own bedroom door. He stood there for a moment, trying to take it all in. He listened to the yelling of his sister and the pain in her voice. He blamed himself for her pain. He wished he had the strength to stand up to his parents like she did. He wished he could fix all this. Maybe go back in time somehow and stop Janis and him from falling in love. No… that's not what he really felt. He wished they had never been caught. He loved her and didn't want that feeling to go away. Dr. Sanders had to have been right though. This love was wrong, maybe it wasn't even real. All this talk about right and wrong… did it not seem right?
Joseph closed his eyes and saw flashbacks of the last three months with Janis; the closeness he felt with her. He saw the way her face lit up when she looked at him and felt the stirring in his heart when he looked at her. He remembered her smile; he wished he could see her smile again. Thoughts of her embrace made his skin feel warm even now. Thoughts of her kiss sent tingles through his lips. He could almost hear her whisper, "I love you," into his ear as she so often did while he came inside her. Right and wrong? He imagined their love as being the one right swimming in a world of wrongs. Now it's all fading away.
Joseph was startled out of his daydreams. He realized that what has startled him was silence. No more screams or pounds coming from elsewhere in the house. Janis must have given up. He packed his bag quickly. He was able to fit most everything he wanted, not owning many clothes.
A few minutes later he stood at the front door saying his half-hearted good-byes to his parents. He was about to open the door when a very loud bang came from the hallway. His mother and father both looked at each other. His mother spoke.
"Did that sound like a gun?!" All three of them immediately turned pale with that thought racing through their heads.
"It can't be." The father spoke. "Where would she…" Another loud bang interrupted his thought. This one sounded more like wood splitting.
Joseph's parents walked back into the hallway. Right away they saw a rather large crack in the door to Janis' room. Both parents gasped as they saw the damage. The father turned completely red. He snapped open the lock on the door and pushed it open. There was Janis, holding one of the drawers from her dresser, which she had been using as a kind of battering ram.
"What the hell are you doing?!" He charged at her and ripped the drawer out of her hands.
"Ow!" Janis cried as she sprained her wrist trying to hold on to the drawer. "You can't keep me prisoner! Just let me leave!"
"Fine, we've had enough of this! Go!" He pointed to the door and Janis grabbed her suitcase on her way out.
"Jan… wait!" The mother followed her out and tried to grab her shoulder. Janis stopped but didn't turn to look at her. "Janis, don't go! That's it," the mother now spoke to the father, "I'm putting a stop to this right now. Lock them up if you have to, but I'm not going to let the family split up…"
"It's too late, mom." Janis interrupted her. "I don't want this family anymore. I'm leaving no matter what."
Her father stomped toward his daughter and Janis turned to him. No longer afraid of this man whom she felt she didn't even know anymore. Janis expected the worst, but was too pissed to back down now.
"Get out bitch!" He spit at her.
"Fuck you, dad!"
He smacked her… hard. It was that kind of back-handed hit across the cheek that makes everything go white for a few seconds, with force that turned her head almost completely around.
"How could you?!" She heard her mother scream. Janis' eyes filled with tears and her face felt like someone had thrown burning hot grease on her. She regained her composure and at first thought about fighting back, but there was nothing she could do. Her father looked ready to kill her and she wouldn't be able to stop him. Janis backed away, suitcase still in hand. Only after about five steps back did she finally turn away from him and walk away. He did not follow, nor did her mother whom Janis heard saying over and over, "How could you…how could you…"
Joseph had never left his position by the front door this whole time. He could hear what was going on but didn't totally understand what had happened until he saw Janis walking toward him. Her eyes misty with tears and her cheek now turning red, Joseph knew.
"He hit you?!" Joseph questioned.
"Don't worry about it." Her voice was stern. "Goodbye, Joseph." She brushed past him and reached to open the door but Joseph put his palm against it to hold it closed.
"Where will you go?"
"I don't know…" Janis tried to think but couldn't. She just wanted to leave. "I'll think of something."
Joseph wanted desperately to be able to say the right thing at that moment, but nothing came to mind. All he could manage was just what he felt, "I love you, Janis."
Janis turned and now smacked Joseph, not hard like her father had done, but enough to get his attention. "How dare you, Joseph!" She growled. "How dare you say that to me now! You never loved me, you loved to fuck me, but that's it!"
"That's not true…"
"It is true, you couldn't possibly have loved me and then let me fight this battle alone!"
She was right. "I'm sorry," he whispered, "but I do love you."
"I'd tell you to prove it," she whispered back, "but it's too late for that now." Janis forced the door open against his hand and two seconds later it was slammed shut.
Hurt and sorrow was Joseph's entire world at that moment. Janis hated him, his parents hated him, and he certainly did not like himself too much right then. He was weak, he betrayed his true love but was unable to stop it. The most beautiful thing he has ever known just walked out the door and was now probably getting into her car. She's going to drive away and maybe out of his life forever.
Joseph questioned himself. He wondered why he wouldn't stand up for himself, or for Janis. Was he really that weak? Or maybe he was just to embarrassed to confront his parents. How horrible it was, to be caught pants down with your own sister. How horrible it was to be caught, but how wonderful it was to be with her. She was his angel, and maybe she was right. Maybe all that stuff the doctor had fed him was crap. Maybe that doctor didn't know what he was talking about. It's true Joseph has had a tough time getting along with his parents, specifically his mother. But if those relationships needed to be fixed, it should have happened a long time ago. Now he and Janis are adults, and if their love is the by-product of messed up parenting, then it's the best thing his parents have ever given him. Maybe it's not too late. Janis' love was pure, and wasn't that worth fighting for?
Joseph snatched his suitcase and moved to open the door. "Now where are you going?" He turned to see his father walking out from the hallway.
"I'm leaving too, dad."
"Bullshit. Go to your room."
"I don't want to spend another second in this house. Or with you."
"Oh yeah?" His father walked closer to Joseph. "You gonna run away like that slut sister of yours?" Joseph didn't answer him. "I know," he spoke again, "your going to run away with her, aren't you? What a happy little couple the two of you are, brother and sister. You gonna live together? Get married maybe? Have a couple of retarded kids? Is that your new life, Joseph?"
Joseph was so pissed off at this point that all fear turned to anger. He hated this man, his father, now. He hated him for what he was saying, for what he was doing. Mostly he hated him for what he did to Janis. That thought alone made Joseph see red.
"Whatever it is I decide to do," Joseph spoke, "it's no longer any business of yours."
"You are sick! Screwing your own sister is disgusting!" His father shoved Joseph back against the front door. Joseph's head fell back and smacked hard against it. He was shocked, he never knew his father to have this kind of violence within him. His father never tried to hurt his kids before. Joseph's rage amplified, he didn't see this man as his father anymore. This was now a threatening intruder whom invaded Joseph's privacy and was now threatening Joseph's well being.
He launched back at his father, shoving him back hard and knocking him down. Joseph tripped over himself and fell on top of his father. He tried to grab Joseph and push him off, but Joseph managed to pull his hands away. Joseph started to swing wildly at his father. All his fear and anger now balled up into two fists. He managed to land a few hits along his father's nose and left cheek. His father responded with yells and cries of pain. A few more hits landed across his mouth and jaw. Joseph was hitting furiously and without control of himself. He felt his hands crunching into his father's face and saw the blood, but it didn't seem real. He heard his father cry out for help and beg Joseph to stop, but he didn't. Eventually his father stopped fighting and stopped yelling. Joseph was able to regain control and stopped hitting. His father was motionless under him. Not dead, Joseph hoped, just knocked out.
It seemed like an eternity passed within those next few seconds as Joseph managed to crawl off the still body of his father and back onto his feet. Blood was trickling out of the nose and mouth of his father and pooling under his head. It was at this moment that Joseph finally noticed his mother standing in the doorway leading to the hallway. She had seen the whole thing but seemed unaffected. She stood as motionless as her bloodied husband lying in front of her.
Joseph didn't know what to say, or even what could be said. He turned away and picked up his suitcase once again. His mother spoke as he was about to open the door.
"Wait…" she said softly. He turned to face her again and she was now animate as if someone turned her power switch on finally. She bent down to her husband and reached into his backside pocket. After retrieving the wallet she flipped it open and took all the cash out from it. She dropped the emptied wallet back on his chest and raised her money-filled hand at Joseph.
He didn't know what to do. Instinct guided him back over to his mother and he took the money from her hand. He didn't know how much it was, but anything would be helpful now. His mother still knelt at the side of his father and she turned her head away from Joseph after he took the money. Nothing was to be said between the two. No "good-bye", no "good luck", not even a "take care" would seem right at this moment. Silence said it all. Joseph turned away from his parents for the last time and now made it out the front door at last.
~
Joseph's first reaction to the outside world was to ask himself, "What now?" The night air felt good as it tingled across his skin. He was sweaty and tired, but somehow now felt rejuvenated. He felt free and more alive than he had in the hours since his troubles began. This night air brought hope and possibilities. It also brought questions. "What now?" He asked himself again.
It didn't take long for his answer to come. As Joseph stepped off the front porch he saw Janis' car still sitting in the driveway. Inside the car, slumped over with her head resting on the steering wheel was his sister. It had only been four, maybe five minutes since she had walked out the door and she was probably trying to compose herself a little before she could drive away.
"Janis!" Joseph yelled to her as he started to run towards her car. She lifted her head and saw him coming at her. She wanted to start the car and drive away, but as he got closer she saw something that Joseph still had yet to notice. There was blood on his shirt and all over his hands. Janis opened her door and climbed out. "What happened?" She asked.
"Don't leave yet!" Joseph panted as he ran up to her. "I want to go with you."
"Why? What happened?"
"I don't want to stay here, I don't want to be without you!" Joseph reached out to touch her but she backed away and stared at his hand. Joseph now saw the blood coating his knuckles.
"What did you do," Janis questioned, "whose blood is that?"
"Dad's," Joseph mumbled, "he attacked me."
"Did you kill him?"
"No. No… I don't think so. He'll be all right. I want to go with you." There was something different about Joseph now. Janis thought he seemed stronger and more confident. Totally unlike the scared little kid he was just minutes ago. Janis had no idea why, but she accepted his offer to go with her. At least for now.
"Fine. Let's get out of here." Janis fell back down into her seat and Joseph ran to the other side. Once they were both in, Janis started the car and pulled out of the driveway. She glanced quickly over at her brother who smiled at her. She didn't smile back but turned away instead. Janis stepped on the gas, and after a short squeal from the tires, they were now on their way. Neither knew where they should go, but any direction leading away from that house seemed just fine.
~
About an hour had passed and both Janis and Joseph sat quietly in the car. They traveled along a highway heading roughly east. Joseph sat with his head against the window watching the white line on the side of the road. It was too dark out there to really see anything else.
Janis was getting tired. Joseph had earlier told her everything that had happened. He told her what he had thought about after she walked out, about his fight with their dad, and about his mother giving him the money from their father's wallet. It turned out to be almost two hundred dollars. The conversation only lasted about twenty minutes with both agreeing to drive as far as they could and maybe stop somewhere for the night when they got tired. Now neither had said much in the past half-hour. Janis eventually spoke.
"I think we should stop somewhere in the next city."
"Okay." Joseph mumbled as he struggled to pick his head up off the window and look at her.
Janis didn't know what she was doing anymore. She hated him when she left the house. Now she was glad to have him with her again. At least for the company. She didn't want to be alone right now. Janis didn't want to admit it, but in her eyes Joseph almost redeemed himself by beating up their father. It wasn't the act itself that she was proud of him for, but just the fact that he finally overcame his fear. He finally stood up for himself and for her. He seemed different now. He wouldn't need her to baby him anymore; he just needed her to love him. Janis felt like she could.
Twenty minutes later they sat together in the cheapest motel room they could find. They had stopped briefly before at a local convenience store to buy supplies. Snacks, toiletries, and a small first-aid kit which Janis used now to bandage Joseph hands. Not all of the blood was his father's. Joseph had cut his knuckles fairly bad somehow when he was landing blow after blow across his father's face.
The silence was awkward. He had hoped she would have been happier to have him here with her. But he couldn't blame her for her silence. Joseph sat on the edge of the bed with Janis kneeling on the floor in front of him. He watched her face as she wrapped the bandage around his hand and between his fingers. She looked beautiful to him. Her kind eyes concentrated on his hands; her soft fingers caressing his. Her face looked delicate and pale. It was hard not to notice the bruise appearing on her cheek courtesy of their father's angry hand. Joseph almost wished he had killed him.
Janis finished securing the bandage and was about to stand when Joseph reached out to touch her face. Janis felt his fingers stroking her chin and she now looked up at him. A single tear fell from her eye as she stared at him. She stayed like that for a few seconds, feeling his fingers run across her chin and down to her neck. She eventually reached up with her own hand and held his against her neck.
"Don't you ever do that to me again." Janis whispered.
"What?" Joseph whispered back.
"You really hurt me, Joseph. You acted like it was all my fault, it was like they told you I was evil and you believed them."
"No, Janis, I didn't think that at all. I honestly didn't know what to think." Joseph leaned in closer to her. He wanted her to know she had all of his attention. He was willing to listen to her frustrations about him. Mostly, he wanted to know what he could do to make it up to her.
"The worst part of it," Janis continued, her lips and voice quivering, "the worst was felling like you didn't care about me. To watch you just sit there the whole time not sticking up for me or even yourself; it really hurt. I had no choice but to assume you didn't really love me."
Joseph moved off the bed and knelt on the floor next to his sister. He put both his bandaged hands on her shoulders and she looked down trying to hide her tears. "I can't even begin to understand how that made you feel. I realize now how badly my inaction was hurting you. Our parents scared me, the doctor confused me, but I never stopped loving you. Okay?"
Janis nodded, "Okay."
"You have to tell me what I can do to make it up to you. I want to make it up to you." Joseph pulled her in closer and wrapped his arms around her. Janis held him back and laid her teary face on his shoulder.
"Just don't ever do that again. You can make it up to me by promising you'll never betray me like that again because I can't take that. Not from you, Joseph."
"I promise, I won't. I promise to always love you." Joseph spoke into her ear.
"I'll always love you too." Janis replied. She lifted her head off his shoulder and leaned in to kiss him. Joseph met her kiss and felt overjoyed to be given such a gift. It was not a passionate kiss, but more like a loving kiss a couple might have after being apart for a long time. The kiss lasted a long time and it was exactly what they both needed right then.
When they were finally able to break away from each other Joseph ran his hands through her hair. "Does this mean I am forgiven?" He asked.
"Not yet." Janis looked at him with that sexy smile he loved. She stood up and raised Joseph to his feet also. Janis turned and fell backward onto the bed and scooted up to the headboard. She motioned for Joseph to follow and he climbed onto the bed and laid himself next to her. They both smiled at each other for a second and locked lips once again. This kiss was far more passionate. He tasted her tongue as she ran it across his lips. He gently kissed her tongue before moving his inside her mouth.
Without breaking the kiss they blindly began to remove each other's clothes. Joseph started with the buttons on her blouse, exposing the lacey bra hidden underneath. Janis pulled at Joseph making him lay more on top of her. She spread her legs a little letting him rest between them. She moved his shirt up off his back but couldn't completely get it off all the way unless they broke their kiss. Neither wanted to stop the lovemaking between their lips and tongues.
Joseph had managed to slide his hands underneath her back. He tried to fumble open the latch on her bra but had a hard time with his hands bandaged up. Finally Janis lifted her back a little, still not breaking the kiss, and Joseph was able to free the restraints holding the bra together. He moved his hands from under her and rested his weight on one of them. The other ran along Janis' smooth belly and up to the targets above. His hand slid under the bra, pushing it out of the way.
Joseph caressed her breasts gently at first. Moving his hand in circles around her firm tit before squeezing the nipple between his fingers. Janis let out a throaty moan as he softly pinched at her. The nipple turned hard under his touch and Joseph moved his hand to the other breast and repeated his actions. Janis was now instinctively moving her hips up and down against his in anticipation. She scratched her nails along his back and down to the front of his pants. Finding the button quickly, she unzipped and moved her thumbs inside the elastic on his underwear. She pushed it all down at once, pants and underwear. Joseph felt what she was doing and moved his own hand down to help. His legs came up but he couldn't get the pants off past his shoes. So they remained wrapped around his ankles.
Janis moved her hands now down to her own long skirt which was lifted up exposing the last roadblock. Still having never broken the tight grip between their lips, Janis and Joseph at the same time pulled down on her panties. Janis lifted one of her legs up and managed to get it through and out of the lacey underwear. The panties were now left dangling off of one knee, but at least they were out of the way.
Joseph rested back down onto his sister. Janis' wetness now smeared along the hard shaft resting against her cunt. Joseph felt a little too hard. When Janis managed to get her hand around his cock it had felt like his heart had traveled down to his crotch and was beating furiously inside his penis. It moved and throbbed in Janis' tight grip. She started to move her hand back and forth across it's length, his pre-cum traveled the length with her hand and coated him entirely. Joseph was moaning as he felt her hand on him. It seemed a beautiful contrast having her soft, delicate hand giving pleasure to his stiff, rigid cock.
He moved his hand away from her breasts again and moved it slowly down. He stopped briefly to caress her hand on his dick before moving his own between her legs. She was completely coated with her liquid and he knew he was probably pouring pre-cum out of his own genitalia. If anything this first encounter between them after such a tortuous couple of days will be beautiful, fierce, and extremely wet.
Janis felt his finger inside her and moaned back at him. He was not as gentle as he usually was and she felt his finger stroking her insides. Then another finger was added and Joseph pushed and pulled them against the walls of her vagina causing her mind numbing bliss. Janis opened her mouth and, without her lips leaving his, she breathed short little breaths into his mouth in synch with the pounding of his fingers. She stroked her hand along his cock with much more force.
She could no longer stand it. Janis grabbed at Joseph's hand pulling his fingers out of her. She then pointed him straight at her cunt and helped guide him inside. Joseph slipped into her without hesitation or obstruction. They joined together at last. They had missed this feeling of mental and physical connection generated by their union. It felt so natural having him deep within her that Janis forgot what it felt like when she didn't. Joseph was always inebriated by the experience. Her vaginal lips held him vice-like, as if they were afraid to ever let go. They both could describe their love-making was as if two halves of the same soul finally came together to be one again.
They moved in unison; Joseph pulling out a little and Janis pushing him back in. Rhythmic, and almost music-like, together they kept a perfect beat. The melody of two bodies pounding together, the soft chimes of pants and moans, and the increasing speed of their beating hearts all came together in a perfect symphony of lust and love. They kissed and nibbled softly on each other's face and neck. Their hands scratched and caressed every inch of each other's body.
Janis grabbed at Joseph's backside and pulled him in so tight he didn't have room to move. He rocked his hips, grinding into hers. She held him tight against her, not letting his cock slide back out. She felt it twitch and throb inside her and felt herself loose control as she gave in to the waves of pleasure coursing through her body.
She finally released Joseph and slammed her hands down at her sides. Janis arched her back high up off the bed and her head turned back to where it was almost upside down. Her orgasm overtook her and was unwilling to let go. Janis shook and cried out Joseph's name. He never moved out of her. He continued to rock his groin hard against hers while he kissed down the sides of her neck. Janis quickly relaxed her back and wrapped her arms around him. She pulled him in close until her face rested against his shoulder. Janis' body quivered under him and she bit hard on his shoulder. It was too hard and made Joseph cringe from the pain.
Janis was not aware she was biting him. She felt a few minor aftershocks hit through her body while she came down from her earthquake sized orgasm. When she realized that she was biting him she let go and saw the deep imprints of her teeth in his skin. She was about to apologize but Joseph turned his head and kissed her deeply and forcefully. He had begun to push and pull himself within her again. His cock was touching nerves and reaching places within her that Janis had never felt before.
Joseph's breath against hers became erratic. He ended the kiss and raised his gaze to meet hers. Janis saw in his eyes that he was close. His thrusts became clumsy as his dick strained and pulled at her vaginal walls. Janis felt the first signs of another earthquake coming up strong already. She wrapped her legs around his waist this time, bracing herself for her orgasm. His expression was hard to ignore. The pleasure he was in radiated out through his eyes and his heavy breath. She loved the way he always wanted to look straight into her eyes when he was climaxing.
He almost slammed himself into her as hard and as fast as he could. Then suddenly he slowed and became extremely gentle with his movements. His body immediately tensed up as Joseph felt the tingling in his crotch and making it's way up and through his whole body. Janis thought she felt him swell up inside her and she looked straight back into his eyes.
"I love you." She whispered at him as the first flood of his seed spilled deep into her womb. That sensation started her own fireworks once again and together they climaxed as one. Their bodies clenched tightly as they held on to each other. Joseph's orgasm pushed through him, down through his groin, into his cock, and finally spilled inside of his sister. He gasped for air between the pulsing waves of semen he was releasing inside her. Janis' body shook and strained under him. She screamed and moaned his name once again as she felt electrocuted by her orgasm.
Soon after, Joseph felt the tension in his body calm as the spurts of his fluid became dribbles. Janis too seemed to relax her body and her lips formed a smile of contentment. When the climax was over, Joseph fell back onto her and kissed her lovingly. She welcomed his kiss and rubbed her hands along his back. Both were hot, sticky, and covered with sweat. But neither wished to end the union. They had eventually rolled onto their sides facing each other with Joseph still hard inside her.
They looked tired and completely disheveled. Neither had ever totally removed all their clothes. Shirts were still on; her bra was unclamped but never removed. Janis' skirt was up around her waist and her panties still hung unto one knee. Joseph noticed his pants and underwear still bunched up around his ankles. He never did stop to take off his shoes.
As the minutes passed they both felt Joseph grow soft and fall out of her. They both seemed saddened to have the connection broken, but they knew there would be many more connections to come. Janis excused herself and went to the bathroom. Joseph took that opportunity to straighten up the bed and remove the remainder of his clothes. He saw Janis had done the same when she came back. Both took a minute to stop and stare at each other's body.
They walked toward each other until they were inches apart. Looking into each other's eyes they both seemed to know what the other was thinking.
"Hi Janis." Joseph mumbled.
"Hi Joseph… you're naked." She talked quietly.
"You too."
They both climbed under the sheets and held each other close. They spoke about love and future plans for a few minutes. When Janis started to feel overwhelmed by her need to sleep she moved into him and laid her head on his shoulder. He held her body tight against his.
"I love you, Janis." He spoke as she drifted off to sleep.
"I love you…" Janis was out before she could finish. Her shallow breaths warmed Joseph's chest and he finally felt the same need for sleep overcome him.

After they checked-out very early the next morning, Janis and Joseph stopped at a local diner for breakfast. They acted not like brother and sister, but like lovers. Nobody in that diner knew who they were and probably didn't care. If anyone did notice them in the booth together then they must have just thought Janis and Joseph were two young lovers on their way to god knows where.
The two young lovers talked quietly for a long time. They tried to figure out what to do, where to go. Pretty much all they had in the world was the money in their pockets and the clothes in their suitcases. But to neither of them did the situation seem like a consequence of their choices. It was more like an adventure they were glad to be on. They were happy because they were free, and because they had each other.
They decided to point the car eastward once again and go as far as they could either until the car died or they reached ocean. Wherever they ended up they would then sell the car, find the cheapest one-bedroom apartment they could find, get whatever jobs they could, and basically start anew. There will be, of course, a lot more to figure out in the long run. But they were open to the challenge and ready to face these problems together. Janis knew she wanted to finish college somehow. But how will definitely be one of those many problems they would have to face. Joseph would first have to finish high school.
With their bellies full of greasy diner food and their hearts filled with love, Janis and Joseph drove hand in hand toward the sunrise. The new day was forming and with it all their possibilities shone down on the road before them. Janis remembered hearing a man say once, "Life is not about doing things right, but about doing the right thing." She believes she finally understood what he meant now. With all that talk of right and wrong still echoing in her mind from the last few days, Janis came to understand that doing things right was all about what society tells us to do. Doing the right thing is a more personal choice, and if what's right for you is wrong according to society… then oh well. As long as nobody gets hurt.
As the car raced down the highway they talked and laughed. The siblings became closer still and they knew that each new day they would hopefully continue to grow together and learn together. Life is never really easy for anyone. Some of life's questions will be hard to answer; some maybe can't ever be answered. Their one mutual thought was at least they found what's right for them, and they could only hope that everybody else in this world could be as happy.
