Like A Blue Shell:>Ep43

Taylor could see why a boy like that would agree to do almost anything for girls that looked like Paige, Anna, and Alexa. Taylor found Isaac strangely likable. He reminded her of Tim and all their friends back when they were in college. Geeky and a bit awkward but clearly sweet and kind of cute, in a certain silly way. Colin entered as Isaac passed. He smiled and shook their hands. Gave Taylor a chaste little kiss that spoke nothing of all they'd shared.

"It looks like we're going to have two games going at once," Tim said.

"Three actually," Colin said. "We needed that many, what with all the people coming."

Taylor tried to count it off in her head and came up short. Even with Isaac and the twins added that put them at 11. So one of the groups would have just three?

Colin lead the couple around, starting with the finished basement. Paige came along, even though she'd seen the place already. Everyone could feel how awkward it was between the siblings-- Colin could tell. The two of them had barely spoken since the party. Barely looked each other in the eye.

as well -- but rather some other indefinable aspect that had seemed to bind them together. An ethereal pulse of energy that took the sex from fantastic to something otherworldly. When Colin tried to talk about it, Paige pointedly changed the subject. And so he was left to suffer mostly in silence and hope his desires melted away with time.

One person who did want to discuss it, though? Courtney. Colin had fessed up and told her that there had been some sort of room mix up and he'd ended up with Paige in his room.

"By that point, Tim was already engaged and I didn't think it was right to interrupt," Colin had explained, "So Paige and I just talked for a bit and then she hit the road."

"Oh," Courtney said, and Colin couldn't tell exactly if his wife was disappointed or suspicious. Colin wasn't sure which would be worse. Like things between them weren't already bad enough.

had started fucking vigorously again which was fine. Good, even. But Courtney seemed fixated on the morning after when they both had swapped with Tim and Taylor.

For one, there was a big difference between the dominating tone that Taylor used versus Courtney's pleading. It didn't make Colin hotter. Just sad. Worse, every time she asked, Colin would

Taylor hadn't smoked in years but it was agreed that everyone should take a hit and Taylor ended up taking more than a few. So now she was drunk and high. Stumbling before things even started.
