Chapter Three

"Averyyyy" Laura yelled strolling into Avery's room, alongside Gracie.

"In here," Avery answered from the bathroom.

"What the fuck Aves, it's almost noon, why aren't you dressed yet" Laura asked dropping her bag on the bed.

"Almost ready," she yelled from the bathroom.

"What have you been doing Aves, this room looks so unkempt,''Gracie said,Looking around the room.

"Almost done, girls," Avery said.

"Five minutes Aves" Laura said.

"Come along Gracie, let's go meet Mrs. Peterson for snacks." Laura leaves the room with Gracie.

Avery hurriedly had her bath, after drying her body she stepped out of the bathroom and went to her wardrobe, she picked a vintage shirt, black shorts and a pair of black Hermes slippers to go with the outfit. She packed her sunglasses, bikini and sunscreen and headed downstairs to meet her friends.

"Morning mom" she greeted her mom.

"Morning baby, want some," Mrs. Peterson asked, extending a bowl of homemade popcorn to Avery..

"Naaah, cutting down on junk, remember? She asked her mom.

"This isn't junk, this is homemade, made with love" Mrs. Peterson replied smiling.

"That's fine, more popcorn for us then", Laura said, taking the bowl of popcorn from Avery's mom.

"Want some pineapple juice to go with that". Avery's mom asked Gracie and Laura.

"Sure" they chorused, Avery inclusive.

"Wait!, I thought you were cutting down on junk", Laura asked jokingly.

"Girls, Homemade isn't junk" Mrs. Peterson reminded them, laughing .

"Mom, anything besides a whole meal is junk to me, but I don't mind the juice, since I skipped breakfast.

"Whatever," Mrs. Peterson said, handing each of them a bottle of freshly made pineapple juice.

" It's go time girls, our ride is here" Gracie excitedly said, disposing of her empty can of pineapple juice.

"Mom, we're leaving, see you soon", Avery called out to her mom.

"Bye, come home early,".

"Bye Mrs. Peterson", Laura and Katie said.

"Bye girls, be careful. She replied.

"We will" they chorused, rushing out of the house.

At the beach, Avery sat under a makeshift shade watching her friends have fun. She agreed to go with them to the beach so they will stop asking questions about her recent foul mood.

She sipped on her drink and continued watching people have fun. She hated being here, last time she came here was in the company of Jimmy.

She smiled to herself.

"Damn! We really had a lot of fun times," she thought.

"Hope you have a clear view", Jimmy asked Avery unbuttoning his shirt while looking at her seductively.

Avery chuckled, shaking her head.

"You just can't get enough of me, can you?" Avery asked him, grinning.

"Would you blame me? You are more everyday,".

"Flirt" she said, rolling her eyes. "I'm going in for a dip, she said, giving Jimmy a kiss.

"Okay, don't give the guys much to look out," he said, wearing his sunglasses and relaxing in the chair.

"Maybe, I might get a catch," she said walking away.

"Never" Jimmy said laughing.

Jimmy and Avery's relationship has been nothing but pure bliss since the inception. She is his description of beautiful and perfect. He loved everything about their relationship, he craves her presence daily.

Their sex life was perfect, although he is drained from the daily sex, he still finds a way fulfills her sexual needs. For he loved her and would do everything to make her happy.

"Be careful" he yelled out to Avery, she was going farther into the water and he knows that she is not a good swimmer.

"I'm good," she yelled back.

"I know, just…" he was interrupted by the sound of his phone.

Picking up the phone, he checked the caller id.

"Hey sissy", he said to the caller.

"Calm down, I can't hear a word you're saying, breath".

"Did you not get any of my texts?"Katie asked, frustrated over the phone.

"I'm sorry, I didn't check my messages, where are you now?"

"Outside, I have been standing out here for God knows how long" She yelled.

"Stop yelling Katie, I gave you a key, not my fault you keep losing it, you didn't even tell me you were coming". Jimmy yelled back.

"I'm sorry, Katie replied calmly, please can you bring me your keys, now?".

"Fine, now I have to cut our outing short", he said begrudgingly.

"I brought you goodies," she said, trying to bribe him over the phone.

"30 minutes, and you will see my handsome face".

"Okay, bye".

"Bye", he said and hinged up.

Avery, we have to go, Katie is waiting for me", he yelled loudly, putting their stuff into his backpack.

"Whatttt", Avery yelled out, ``can't hear you clearly over the wind".

"Get your ass here, '' he yelled, gesturing for her to come over.

"Fine," she muttered, walking towards him.

"Why are you dressed up, she asked him.

"We have to go", he replied, handing her her clothes.

"Why"

"My sister is waiting for me," he replied. Nudging her to move.

"She's in town?" Avery asked, surprised.

"Yes, and she is standing outside waiting for me"

" I thought you gave her your spare"

" I did, but she lost it, again," he added in frustration. "C'mon Aves, go change up, we need to go now".

"Finally," Katie said, giving her brother a hug.

"Good to see you too Katie," Jimmy said, his voice laced with sarcasm.

"Good to see you bro" she laughed.

"You must be Avery", she said with certainty, "heard so much about you" she said, giving Avery a hug.

"same here, Jimmy won't stop talking about you"

"I know, I have that effect on people '', she said confidently, releasing Avery from her Embrace.

"Damn girl! Jimmy did not do Justice to your beauty, Katie said.

"Oh, please", Avery blushed, tucking her hair behind her ears.

" Sorry I ruined your beach date, '' Katie said looking directly into Avery's eyes.

"Oh that, it's not a problem at all," Avery replied, unnerved by Katie's looks.

"Don't pamper her Aves, it's a problem Katie, I don't appreciate you ruining my date" Jimmy said, blatantly.

"The apology isn't for you brother, I can always ruin your day, I'm Katie, your favorite sister".

"Katie, you are my only sister," Jimmy said, shaking his head.

"I know, which makes me your favorite sister, '' she said, nudging Avery.

"Your majesties," Jimmy said, gesturing for them to go in.

"I will take my leave now," Avery said, standing up from the couch she has been sitting for the past hour watching the siblings unpack Katie's bag and grab at each other.

" Hope you ain't leaving because of me, '' Katie asked.

" oh, no dear, I have movie plans with my friends this evening". Avery lied.

"Okayyy, hope to see your face soon," Katie said.

"Sooner than you expect, '' Avery said, laughing awkwardly at her own joke.

"Booked a ride yet?", Jimmy asked.

"Yea, my ride's here" she replied, picking up her purse from the table.

"Let me walk you out then". He said

"Bye Avery," Katie said, waving at her.

"Bye Katie" she waved back heading towards the door.

"I'm so sorry about today, I promise to make it up to you" Jimmy said to her.

"Oh it's nothing". "want to hang out tomorrow, I don't know what to do with all the free time I have on me"

"Of course I want to".

The Lyft driver honked at Avery.

"See you tomorrow, handsome, '' she said, giving him a forehead kiss.

"Bye pretty, call me when you get home.

" I will,'' she said, entering the car.

Jimmy closed the car door and watched the car drive off before he retreated to his apartment.

"She seems nice," Katie said from the couch, when Jimmy walked in.

"Yes she is" he replied sitting on the couch adjacent to hers.

"I like her already".

"Katie, you like everyone," said Jimmy to his sister. They both laughed.

"Not Everyone, I hate you". She said, crossing her legs.

"Well, you're a bum", Jimmy said, throwing Katie a pillow.

Katie grabbed the pillow and threw it back at Jimmy, they both sat in silence. Katie's mind kept going back to hugging Avery and the feelings she experienced at such a simple gesture, she wondered how paralyzed she would feel if Avery touched other parts of her body.

Katie is a closet gay, who just ended a relationship two months ago. No one in her family knows about her sexuality and she plans to keep it that way for as long as she can. Although her family loves and adores her, they can be judgemental at times and she wasn't ready to be on the chopping board yet.

" How often does she visit? Katie asked, breaking the silence.

"Who?" Jimmy asked absent-mindedly.

"Avery Of course, who else comes to visit you?".

"He guffawed, no one sissy, just her". "Why do you ask?".

"Nothing, so how often does she visit".

"Very often," he said.

"Everyday?'' Katie asked with wide eyes.

"Yea, schools are on holiday and she gets bored staying home alone, so she spends time with me". Jimmy concluded.

"No sibling?" Katie asked

"Just one, she has a sister who is rarely home".

" It will be fun getting to know her, Katie said.

"Yes, she's a free spirit". Jimmy said.

*******************************************

Katie and Avery became friends sooner than they expected, they enjoyed each other's company. They do things together cooking,shopping, and gossiping like they have known each other all through their life. Avery even introduced Katie to Laura and Gracie. Although they pretended to like her, Katie knew instantly that they did not appreciate her company.

"Welcome to my home," Avery said, welcoming Katie to her parents house.

"Thanks Aves." Katie said, stepping into Avery's house.

"You have a beautiful home," Katie commented.

"Stop being modest, I have seen pictures of your home, and this is nowhere close to it" Avery said.

"Merit of being a part-time interior designer," Katie said, smiling.

"Come on in", Avery said, holding her hand.

Katie followed her like a lamb to a slaughter house.

"Hey mom, hi dad" Avery greeted her parents.

"Hey baby, Avery's dad replied without looking up from his phone.

"Meet my friend from school , Katie".

"Hello," Katie said, gesturing with her hands.

"Hi Katie, how are you?" Avery's mom inquired.

" I'm fine, thank you, ma'am.

"We will be in my room, see you later," Avery said, grabbing snacks and drinks From the fridge and heading towards her room.

"Okay baby".

"Your friend from school? Katie asked Avery immediately they entered Avery's room.

"Yea, you are my friend right?. Sit. Avery said, pointing to her bed.

"Your friend? Yes, but definitely not from school." Katie commented.

"My bad" Avery said, changing her clothes to a more comfortable home outfit.

"Does your parents even know about my brother, '' Katie asked after a moment of silence.

"Okay look", Avery said, squatting in front of Katie and holding her legs. "My family is very religious and somewhat judgy, and they would never welcome the idea of a boyfriend".

"So they don't want you having a boyfriend?" Katie asked, surprised.

"Yea, the idea of a boyfriend repels them. Avery said getting up from her position

"Woah, and I thought my family was the king of judgement."

" It's not that big of a deal, everyone has a secret, they don't want to come to light, we'll at least not to their beloved family." Avery admitted.

" I have a secret too, and I'm not ready to share it with my family, and it's killing me", said Katie bitterly

"Want to share with me?" Avery asked, filling her mouth with chips.

"Naaah, you are my brother's girlfriend, sharing such secrets with you is risky".

"Okay," Avery said, shrugging.

" You are a grown ass woman,you should be able to tell your parents about your romantic relationship, '' Katie advised.

"I still have time".

"This is 2022, 15 year old kids have boyfriends". Katie said, annoyed.

"Let's just say, they think their little not so little girl is a virgin, '' Avery said smiling.

"Are you?" Katie asked, looking her in the face.

"Girl, I'm almost 22, what do you think?" Avery replied with disgust.

" Are you sure you want to know what I think?" Katie asked sceptically.

"Yea, sure, hit me with the truth bomb".

Well, I know you are far from being a virgin, and I also know that you are a flirtatious little bitch.

"Whatttt, me, never" Avery said, placing her hand on her chest in mocking shock.

"Girl, I have seen your browser history, and it's scary".

"Profiling me based on my browser history, classic king" Avery said, shaking her head.

"I feel so relaxed around you," Katie said after a moment of silence.

"Same here girl". "Do you wanna tell your secret?" Avery asked, holding Katie's hand.

"Nope, I'm good, Katie said, withdrawing from Avery and grabbing a drink.

"Fine! Whenever you are ready, I'm here for you".

They sat in silence munching on chips and watching a comedy show on Tv. Katie couldn't focus, her mind wasn't at peace. She was watching the show, but couldn't focus, she kept stealing glances at Avery, wondering if it would be wise to approach her. If Avery tells her brother, then it's game over for her.

"I'm gay", she blurted.

"I'm gay, but no one in my family knows, it will kill my mom if she finds out".

"That's your big secret?" Avery asked, scoffing.

"Yesss". Katie replied.

"Girl I knew that already, I could tell from your flirty attitude towards me".

Wait, what?. How long have you known? Katie asked, confused.

"Since the very day we met.

"Are you…?

"Bi? yes, '' Avery replied, cutting her short.

"You are bisexual? Katie asked in shock.

" yes" '' she replied, nodding her head.

"Does Jimmy know about your sexuality?"

"to be honest, I'm still figuring out my sexuality, one thing I'm sure of is the fact that I'm with the LGBTQ family". "So No, he doesn't know about out it and he doesn't have to know"

"Why, he's my brother, he needs to know this" Katie said hysterically

" does he" Avery asked curtly

"Yes he does, he has the right to.

"Trust me he doesn't need to know about this or any other thing that goes on between us" Avery said leaning in closely to touch Katie's boobs.

Katie hit Avery's hand off her boobs and stood up.

"What the hell Aves?",

"Look, I know you want this, you can't deny it, '' Avery said standing up.

Avery moves close to Katie, and makes attempts to unbutton her shirt.

"You want this Katie" she whispered to her ear.

"No I don't" Katie interjected.

"I read your diary K, I know you want me badly" Avery whispered licking Katie's earlobes.

"But Jimmy….

"Don't have to know, this could be our secret Katie, just you and I", she said, taking off her shirt.

"But I love him,'' Katie said in slow whispers.

I love him too Katie, but this ain't about him, this is our moment just you and I" Avery said kissing her.

Katie welcomed the kiss, she stuck her tongue into Avery's mouth and they both moaned. They unclasped each other's bra kissing. Katie pinned Avery to the wall, she bent down and grabbed Avery's nipple with her teeth, biting and sucking on it. She switched between both boobs.

Avery put her hand down Katie's short, feeling her wetness she moaned. Katie spread her legs wider. Using her index and middle finger Avery parted Katies's pussy lips open, she swirled her fingers round her clit, before inserting two fingers into her and pumping her. Katie moaned, sucking harder on Avery's nipple, using her knees, she nudged Avery to open her legs, she inserted her finger into Avery's pussy, and twirls her clit with her thumb.

Avery and Katie continued fingering themselves, trying so hard to stifle their moans.

Avery inserted a third finger into Katie and increased her pump, causing Katie to convulse in orgasm.

After Katie's climax, they took off the reminder of their clothing and Katie pulled Avery's face closer to hers and went in for a sensual kiss, after which they moved to the bed, and laid in a six-nine position eating each other out.

Avery laid onto Katie with her pussy on Katie's face and her face on Katie's pussy, Katie spread her legs wider to give Avery more room. Putting her face down, Avery inserted her finger into Katie's pussy while nibbling on her clit. She increased the speed of her finger thrust while sucking on her clit.

Katie held Avery butt up to give her room for breathing, she lapped on Avery juices while thrusting her deeply with her fingers. Removing her finger from Avery's pussy, she replaced it with her tongue and inserted a finger to Avery's Shit hole,causing Avery to squirt. She thrust into Avery's Asshole, while tongue fucking her. Avery ate Katie fucking her with her fingers. They both increased the speed of their thrust and in a matter of seconds they reached orgasm and collapsed on each other.

"That was breathtaking", Avery said, playing with Katie's boobs.

"It was," Katie commented. " I hope we get to do this very often"

"I won't tell if you don't, "Avery said looking up at her".

"Sure, it's our little dirty secret," Katie said laughing.

"I better get going, it's late already" Katie said nudging Avery to stand up"

"Okay, I think you should shower before leaving?" Avery suggested.

"Yea, I smell of squirt and pussy juice". They both laugh.

"How do I smell?" Katie asks Avery to spread her hands.

Avery went close and sniffed her.

"Definitely not squirt and pussy juice, '' she commented. "the shower did you good". Avery said laughing.

"Well, I hope to smell that way soon, '' Katie said.

"I will be counting the seconds until then.

"Aves, a voice called out to Avery.

Avery stopped in her tracks.

"Hi Rose", where's mom and dad", Avery asked her only sister.

"Fellowship" she replied

"Oh"

"Who's your friend, won't you introduce me?" Rose asked.

"This is Katie, my friend from school, Katie, Rose my big sister," Avery said, pointing from Katie to Rose.

"Hi rose,

"Katie, love your name".

"Thanks".

"Let's go Katie, your ride is waiting? Avery said, pulling her.

" bye Katie

"Bye rose.

"So Katie is your friend from school" Rose asked Avery immediately she stepped into the house.

"Yes, I thought we established that part already". Avery replied rudely.

"How come you've never mentioned her, trust me I was surprised when mom said you were upstairs with a friend named Katie".

"Rose"

"Yea"

" are you trying to make a point"

"No, just that something seems off about her", I'm trying to place it but can't".

"I will be in my room, let me know when you figure out the problem," Avery said, climbing the stairs leading to her room.

"I will, Rose yelled at her receding figure.

Days after their sex encounter was filled with more sex. Avery and Katie spent time cooking, shopping and doing every other thing together. Their bond grew, making Jimmy to sometimes feel like an outsider, but he was happy that his sister and his girl were moving along. Most times, After sex with Jimmy, Avery goes to Katie room in the guise of keep her company and also fucks her.

"I got tickets to the movie premier of Morbiussssss" Jimmy said happily to his sister.

"Yea, '' she shouted joyfully, grabbing the tickets from Jimmy.

"Just two? You ain't going for the premier?" She asked, looking up at her brother.

"I love marvel, why wouldn't I go? He asked, confused.

"But you got only two tickets"

"Yea, two tickets, one for you and one for me". He said taking one of the tickets.

"Oh, I thought these were for Avery and I".

"No no no no no, Jimmy said. " it's for you and me, we haven't spent time together since your visit''. `` I'm either with Avery or you are with her, I feel like I have neglected you"

"you did not neglect me, we have fun times together".

"Yea with Aves, but this is just you and me having a fun time, just like old times.

" But I love the fun and memories the three of us create, I'm not complaining".

"Are you sure?" He asked, his sister, not convinced.

"yea". You know I will be leaving in a week's time, I need all the memories I can gather". She said, feeling unhappy

"Okay then, I will get her a ticket immediately, '' Jimmy said, Grabbing his phone to book a ticket.

"Yes, thanks bro" she squealed happily, hugging him.

"Still not convinced though, I dislike marvel" Avery said on the ride home from the cinema.

"Marvel isn't for everyone," Jimmy said, placing his hand on her thigh.

"Of course it isn't for everyone, not everyone enjoys those film tricks, I don't".

"You are such a hater of quality"

"Quality? Huh, Avery scoffed.

"It takes a very high level of smartness to understand and enjoy Marvel movies," Jimmy added.

"Avery, Katie called her calmly resting her palm on Avery's shoulder, ``not everyone enjoys Nickelodeon, everything doesn't have to end in giggles".

" Preach, with all that time you spent in the bathroom, there's definitely no way you are going to enjoy the movie". "I'm shocked Katie enjoyed the movie," Jimmy said.

"You guys are impossible, '' Avery said, resigning.

"Here we are", Jimmy said, turning off the ignition in front of Avery's house.

"Thank you, my kind gentleman," Avery said, giving him a kiss.

"You're welcome, queen," Jimmy replied, smiling.

"Bye," Avery said alighting from the car.

"Bye Aves" Katie said.

Katie and her brother drove home analyzing each scene from the movie.

Days after the movie date, Jimmy planned a beach date for the three of them. Avery came to the house hours before the scheduled time to help Katie pack, for she was leaving town in two days time.

"Why don't we stay indoors?" Katie asked her brother.

"Why do you want to stay in, I have this day all planned out, why the cold feet now? Jimmy asked, annoyed at his sister's sudden request.

"I don't have cold feet, i just want to spend today with both of you"

"We can do that at the beach". Jimmy said, raising his voice. " C'mon Katie, you are not about to ruin another beach date" " I am not ruining anything, I just think it will be more fun if we stay indoors and play games or even see a movie".

"I don't mind" Avery chipped in, "whatever you guys decide is okay with me".

"Avery, Jimmy called, you indulge Katie way too much".

"I don't" "I'm not even in the mood for a beach party right now" Avery said.

"Fine, you girls keep hanging up on me, but I'm picking the movie, Jimmy said defeated".

Okay, The girls chorused.

" and you both are making snacks for the movie".

"That's not a problem", Avery said.

During the movie the girls kept sex chating each other, Jimmy noticed their lack of concentration to the movie but did not comment on it.

"Pass me the bowl" Jimmy said to Katie, requesting for the bowl of snack on her thigh.

Katie passed the bowl to him, and continued pressing her phone".

" You know, for someone who suggested a movie date, you girls lack concentration," Jimmy said.

"This movie sucks the youth out of me" Avery said lying on the couch and placing her feet on his thigh.

"Whatever, the movie is almost finished, then you can make your pick" he said.

"Okay boo".

"Jimmy continued watching his movie, but noticed Katie staring at him from the couch and smiling.

"What?" He asked

"Nothing", she said typing on her screen and smiling.

"Are you girls talking about me? Jimmy asked curiously.

"Nope," Avery said.

"Never" Katie said laughing.

"Avery's phone beeped to signal an incoming message and Jimmy playfully grabbed the phone from her to see what Avery was doing.

Avery tried to retrieve the phone from him but her efforts were in vain.

Jimmy ran to the other side of the living room, to read the text. His face concocted in horror while reading the text.

"What's the meaning of this?" He asked, waving the phone.

Both girls sat in silence, with their heads bowed.

"Kate, he called out to his sister

"Huh"

" explain the meaning of this text".

"It's a mistake, I was going to send it to someone else".

"Who?"

"Huh"

"I said who, Jimmy yelled at her, causing her to shiver.

"My.. my friend" Katie replied, shivering.

"Your friend?

"Yea".

"Jimmy, it was a mistake, let it go," Avery said.

"Let me have your phone," Jimmy said, extending his hands towards Katie.

"Why?" Avery asked.

"Aves, stay out of this, this has nothing to do with you", Jimmy said angrily.

"Jimmy, she's not a kid, let her have her privacy, you can't search her phone". Avery said Defiantly.

Avery knows the jig will be up, if Jimmy gets hold of Katie's phone. She always tells Katie to delete their text immediately she reads it, but Katie refuses, saying she wants to keep the text so she can read them later in the future.

"Avery, this is none of your…He stopped mid-sentence and looked at Avery, then he looked at the phone he was holding and read the text aloud.

"I can't wait for you to fuck my brains out once this movie is over👅👅" Jimmy read the text in disgust.

"It is you, you are the damn friend" Jimmy said with nauseated.

"You are out of your damn mind," Avery said, hitting his chest.

"Once the movie is over?, " we are watching a movie together, you both kept texting, so this message is for you Aves".

Jimmy checked the message history between Avery and Katie, and discovered that it had been wiped clean.

"Avery, who were you texting for the last hour?

"I wasn't texting anyone" Avery lied, grabbing her phone from him.

"Kate, your phone now", he yelled, stretching his hand for her phone.

"Katie handed him the phone in fear".

"Pin" he asked.

"Katie you don't have to do that" Avery told her pleading with her eyes.

"Shut your foul mouth and sit your ass down this second " Jimmy said to Avery with so much anger in his voice that she fearfully sat down on the edge of the couch.

Jimmy unlocked his sister's phone and went through her text history with Avery, he was almost paralyzed with shock. He was right they were talking about him among other things he wished he hadn't seen. He read their chat from the movie night. The time Katie went with Avery to the bathroom, they talked about the toilet sex being the best quickie they have had. He could no longer read further, his sister and his girlfriend were having sex under his nose, "I have been a fool" he thought.

He fell on the couch, with his right hand on his head, he closed his eyes wishing this was all a dream, and it will go away once he wakes up. Seconds stretched into minutes and the only voice being heard was that of the actors in the movie playing.

"Kate", Jimmy called his sister in a soft voice sitting up, " Do you have anything to say?".

"I'm sorry, Jim, I'm very sorry" she cried looking up at him.

"Katie, I don't want your apology, not yet, I want an explanation".

"I'm gay" she blurted out. " I'm so sorry, I was scared of telling you and anyone about it, so I confided in Avery".

"You confided in Avery?"

"Yes, the secret was eating me up and I needed to talk to someone" I am truly sorry, Katie said crying.

"Katie, that's not a secret, everyone knows that you are gay, we didn't say anything because we wanted you to tell us whenever you feel ready", he said softly.

"Mom knows, she asked.

"Yes she does".

"I'm so stupid" Katie said.

"Did you blackmail my sister into sleeping with you?"Jimmy asked, turning to Avery.

"I would never". Avery said.

"I trusted you, and you both made a fool out of me". He said with pain. "

"Jimmy, I'm so sorry,"Katie said.

"Sleeping with brother and sister, woah Aves", Jimmy said, clapping, "you are the boss". " to think I thought you were reserved and your friends were your bad influence, I have been played".

"Jimmy, it's not Avery's fault, pls don't put the blame on her" Katie said to Avery's defense.

"Oh no, I don't blame either of you for this, I blame my self, the signs were there, I was the fucking third wheel in my own relationship and I was okay with it because I thought you girls were bonding".

"Katie, of all girls, you choose your brother's girl, so much for family". Jimmy said, flinging the TV remote.

"Jimmy please". Avery begged.

"Get out Kate, I can't stand the sight of you". Outttt, he screamed.

"And you, he said turning to Avery, leave now, you and I are done" he said with finality.

"What?, we barely started". Avery objected.

"You should have thought of that before fucking my sister, out now" he said Angrily.

"Please Jimmy, we can work this out" she pleaded.

"Work this out, how?, you had sex with my sister, what's there to work out? Jimmy yelled.

"Just calm down, don't make any rash decisions yet?.

"What do you propose, a threesome? Get out now" Jimmy said pointing towards the door.

She fell on her knees pleading.

"Avery, don't let me make rash decisions, get your whoring behind you out of my house now" he said, pushing her out of the front door.

"Don't ever contact me, stay away from us, '' Jimmy said, throwing her bag at her and bolting the door to her pleading face.

"Motherfucker, forgot the love we shared," Avery Muttered , taking a sip of her juice.

The trip to memory lane has destroyed her mood, she was ready to leave the beach.

"Laura, Gracie" she yelled at her friends.

"Laura" she yelled again signalling her to come over.

"She was eagerly packing her bags when they met her.

"Why the rush, Avery, what happened?'' Gracie asked, holding her hand.

"We need to leave now," Avery said.

"No we don't" Laura said.

"Yes we do," Avery confirmed.

"Aves, you have been in a foul mood lately, and we have been walking on eggshells around you to make you happy, we can't continue enabling your attitude". "I think it's time you tell us what the problem is," Gracie said.

"Everything is fine, I'm good, my mood is excellent, '' Avery snapped at her..

"Wow, excellent mood indeed, '' Laura commented.

"Yea, can we go now, please".

"No Aves, we've barely spent an hour here" Laura said.

"Fine, you stay, I'm leaving".

"Avery, we came here together, we have to leave together" Gracie said.

"Well, since you don't want to leave with me, I will leave alone". "Are you happy now".

"Aves, it would be easier for everyone, if you just tell us what the problem is, we are your friends, we are here for you" Gracie said hugging her.

"Jimmy is no more", Avery said sitting down.

"What!'' asked Gracie.

"When" Laura asked.

"About two weeks now," Avery said.

"How did it happen, was he sick? Laura asked.

"What? no!" Avery said, concocting her face in disgust.

"Then how did it happen?" Gracie asked.

"I caught him cheating", Avery lied.

"Wait!, when you said "Jimmy is no more", you meant you guys are no longer together". Laura asked.

"Yea, what were you thinking?" Avery asked.

"That he was dead," they said, laughing.

"Omg, you two," "He is partially dead though, to me he is" Avery said smiling.

"Can you imagine the audacity of him cheating on you, '' Gracie said.

"And I bet his bratty sister knew about it, but didn't tell you", Laura said, shaking her head.

"It's okay, I feel better now," Avery Said.

"Awww, group hug", Gracie said, opening her hands for a hug.

They went in for the group hug and they stayed glued to each other until a beep from Avery's phone broke them.

"Hmmm, Laura grunted, annoyed by the interruption".

"It's okay girls," Avery said, picking up her phone from the chair and unlocking it.

She smiled at the message "hey boo, in town for a few days, meet me tomorrow at Atlantic hotel room 307, 1:30 sharp, don't worry I will delete the message immediately 🤪🤪😜"

"Sure, I wouldn't miss it" she typed and pressed send.

She locked her phone and put it inside her bag.

"C'mon girls let's go have fun" she said to her friends.

"I thought you wanted to go home, what changed," Gracie asked.

"Everything" she replied.

"You ain't sad no more?", Laura asked.

"Not anymore" she Replied running towards the water.

"I am happy now, Katie made me happy" she said to herself.
