Anna

Today is a very exciting day for everyone. After all, today is Lain’s birthday; she will finally be turning twenty-one. It’s very lucky that she managed to make it back home from her mission before her birthday, but part of me suspects that her boss planned for that to happen. Even if they didn’t, I’m not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. I’m just happy that she is here to celebrate it. I was honestly becoming rather worried that we wouldn’t be able to.

Today I am planning on spending all day with Lain. Amanda, Lain’s friend who she calls Rookie, had told me that Lain has apparently been under a lot of stress lately, according to what she had heard from the other soldiers that just got back.

We have a party planned for her later, just a small thing with friends and family, but I feel like spending as much time as she can with family would be good for her.

Smiling happily to myself, I head into their apartment building and climb to the second floor. Down the hall I greet their guard, Mr. Lance and ask if they are available. He looks to the door and says, “I’m pretty sure they are awake. Cooking breakfast, I think. Shall I ask you in?”

“Yes please.” I respond happily.

He knocks on the door and calls in, “Miss Lain, Miss Sky. Your sister is here to see you. Do you mind if I let her in?”

From inside I hear a bit of what sounds like Lain panicking and also Sky calling back in affirmation.

He opens the door, and it quickly becomes clear that Lain was trying to stop us from doing so, and the reason for it becomes rather evident quickly. Sky comes skipping up to the door to greet me with a big happy smile on her face and is naked as the day she was born.

I immediately slam the door shut behind me as Mr. Lance, just outside, quickly and politely turns away and hides his eyes.

Turning away from the door, I try to stammer something out but quickly get shut up as Sky wraps me up in a big glomping hug.

“Good morning, Anna! What brings you over so early?” she asks.

She looks up at me as she hugs me with a big smile. I have to avert my eyes as I see her naked chest squished against me.

I don’t care if I am straight. Having a naked and busty short girl pressing herself against me is too much!

She’s not much taller that Lain is and is still shorter that me by a few inches. This makes her dangerous for me because she still falls within the range of short and cute, a certified weakness for me. It makes me want to hug and spoil her back, but her being naked is making this situation a bit dangerous and weird.

Blushing and looking off to the side I tell her, “I wanted to spend today with you guys… Lain has been gone for a while… Figured she could use some time with family…” I stammer out, eyes locked on the wallpaper.

“That sounds great, come on in and I’ll make you some tea.” She says happily, not seeming embarrassed in the slightest.

From down the hall Lain calls and I look past Sky to find her peaking around the corner from the kitchen. She looks incredibly embarrassed, blushing furiously and hiding most of her body behind the corner.

Is she wearing nothing but an apron…?

“Sky, what have I told you about being naked around people? Please, go put some clothes on!”

Sky just looks at her a bit curiously, “That’s when we are outside though? We’re at home, it shouldn’t be a problem?”

“It is when we have guests over! Most people aren’t comfortable with nudity.” She says pulling the apron more tightly to cover her chest.

“Mmm, ok. Give me a moment.”

Sky finally lets go of me and turns to go to her room. After she leaves, Lain comes out from the corner saying. “Give me a sec, let me get dressed!”

As she turns to scurry away to her room, I can’t help but notice as a set of pitch-black underwear seems to materialize out of nowhere on her body.

What the heck was that?

I just keep standing awkwardly in the entryway until they get back. Lain comes back first, now dressed in jeans and a sweater, and runs up to give me an awkward hug. “Sorry that you happened to see us like that. Sky doesn’t give a crap about nudity.” I catch it as she mumbles to herself, “Not that I mind her being naked…”

“No, it’s ok. I’m sorry that I came in without thinking about it. I should have checked if you two were decent first. Sorry… it should have been obvious that you guys would have been doing… that, after you just got back.”

“We weren’t doing that; I was just making breakfast.” Lain says looking shy.

Sky leaves her room, dressed in a long skirt and turtleneck sweater, and immediately drops a bomb on the both of us, “Mhm, that’s right, we had sex last night. We just didn’t feel like getting dressed for breakfast. Although, I was planning on dragging Lain back to my room afterwards.” She says it so nonchalantly, as if it is perfectly normal to tell your girlfriend’s sister about your plans to do the dirty.

She has zero shame…

Lain and I just watch as she goes walking into the kitchen to make some tea, the both of us feeling rather embarrassed and awkward.

Lain finally breaks the tension after a bit and says, “Thank goodness you hadn’t brought mom and dad with you. I might have died on the spot…”

“You might anyways? Sky has told them all about what you two do in bed. She likes to brag about you…” I tell her apologetically.

She just drops her head and buries her face in her hands. A feeling of complete and utter defeat radiating off of her.

I place a hand on her shoulder and tell her, “I’m sorry, I tried to stop them. I really did…”

With a defeated sigh, she drops her hands and walks for the living room. She waves behind her and says, “Well come on in and make yourself comfortable. I’m going to need to have another talk with Sky about what sort of stuff is ok to share with humans… I’ll leave that for later…” She calls into the kitchen, “Sky, is it alright if I leave the rest of the cooking too you?”

“Yes!” She calls back happily. “Anna would you like any? I know that you won’t eat monster meat, but we have eggs and some regular bacon if you’d like.”

I call back to her, “If you don’t mind making some. Thanks.”

Lain collapses into the recliner and gives me a proud smile, “Apparently, mom has been teaching her how to cook and bake. She even made me a cake last night. It was tasty.”

“Ah, yeah. I was there for a couple of the lessons. Mom and Sky have been getting along very well.”

“Well, I’m glad that you guys are keeping Sky company while I am gone. It helps me to know that she isn’t lonely with no one to hang out with.” She gives me a look and tilts her head a bit. “Are you not going to sit down…?”

I just keep eyeing the couch, “Uh… Is it… Is it safe to sit…?”

She just deadpans and looks up at me, “We didn’t do it on the couch, we just slept there. You can sit…”

“Oh, ok… Sorry, it’s just…”

Wait, they slept on the couch? Then where did they do it? Shouldn’t they have slept in bed?

Sky chooses this moment to come in and deliver the tea and drop another bomb. “Mhm, we didn’t do it there, we had sex on the counter and ate cake off of each other’s bodies. Don’t worry, we cleaned up after ourselves. Have to keep cooking surfaces clean for food after all.” She says with a big smile and heads back into the kitchen.

Lain just hides her face again and I choose to sit down and do the same, the both of us just stewing in our collective embarrassment as Sky happily works on cooking up a bunch of eggs and bacon in the other room, humming a happy little tune as she goes.

Still hiding behind my hands I say, “Oh, uh… Happy birthday, by the way…”

“Yah… thanks…”

From the kitchen Sky calls to us, “Food is done. You want to eat at the couch or the counter?”

Both of us call back, ““Couch please…””

----------------------------------------

“So, Anna, you went to spend the day with Lain and Sky. How did your visit go, showing up so early in the morning?” Mom asks me with a knowing smile on her face.

I fight to hold down my blush and tell her, “We had eggs and bacon and hung out. Nothing else…”

“You walked in, and they were both naked, weren’t they?” She asks, a shit eating grin on her face.

I just put my hands in my face and hide, after a moment I say, “Yes… I don’t wanna talk about it.”

She just starts laughing hysterically and I yell at her, “You knew this would happen, didn’t you!?”

“Yup!” She just laughs some more.

“How? Why didn’t you stop me if you knew!?” I exclaim.

“Sweetie, I’m a married woman. Trust me, I know what a young couple in love is going to do first thing after one of them gets back home from a long business trip. As for why I didn’t stop you? For fun!” She declares triumphantly.

I point at her and yell, “Bully!”

“Yes! What kind of mom would I be if I didn’t bully my daughters every chance I get?” She declares with pride.

I just hide behind my hands and stew in embarrassment.

“A mom that doesn’t bully her daughters…” Lain responds, her face a deadpan expression as she looks at her mother.

“Well, that would just be boring.” With a giggle, she turns and walks away to go and hug Sky where she is greeting some of the other guests.

Ah, with the end of the world and then Lain being left behind, I had almost forgotten about how bad she could be sometimes… That she is where Lain gets her weird desire to bully people from… Lain probably still thinks that I don’t know about that, but I know that she gets off on bullying people and pulling tricks.

I give a small smile as I watch mom happily talking with Sky. It’s good to see her finally getting back to her old self again.

…

Even if it does mean having to deal with her pulling stuff like this every now and then…

I get pulled out of my thoughts as dad comes up and gives Lain and me both a hug, “Sorry about her.” He says with a smile. “Hmm, she’s really been getting back to her old self recently…” Pulling the both of us into another hug he says, “Thank you both for being such wonderful daughters. Lain, I wish that you would take better care of yourself though. You worry the both of us to no end… Still, happy birthday sweetheart.”

She gives him a squeeze back and says, “Thank you dad. Please make sure that she doesn’t embarrass me to much in front of my friends though please. I already have enough rumors going around about me…”

He just gives a laugh and says, “I’ll do my best…” before turning to go and talk to some of the guests.

“I’m screwed…” Is all I hear her say from beside me. I simply nod and say, “Yup…”

A bit of a commotion breaks out a bit later as some people come in through the doors to the cafeteria, loudly yelling “Happy birthday!”

Lain’s friends come in, all carrying several kegs of beer. Thomas alone is shouldering two of the things like the mountain of a man that he is, Amanda is looking a bit shy, but is smiling with a party hat on her head. Sanders and Sandy -Sandy being someone who I have only recently gotten to meet- come walking in, arm in arm, laughing and smiling. Meanwhile, Sergeant Lenz just has a happy smile on his otherwise serious face. Lain goes running over to greet them, a big smile on her face that grows even bigger as more and more soldiers that she is friendly with come pouring into the cafeteria, all of them calling out and giving her a happy greeting or a hug.

Sergeant Lenz speaks up over the commotion and says, “I know that alcohol isn’t normally allowed in here, but considering that this is a special occasion, I pulled some strings to help make her twenty-first a bit more special!” He takes one of the kegs and sets it up on a table before popping opening it’s tap, “Lain, my gift to you for saving my life. Happy Birthday!” He gives her a hug, and drinks are quickly passed around to everyone. A cup somehow ending up in my hand at some point, despite my not being much for drinking.

A couple of drinks later, the rest of the night just sort of ends up turning into a blur…

There was a drinking contest at some point, which Lain won. I think I remember her whispering to me afterwards that she is immune to poisons or something, as she was pocketing some cash with a devious little smile.

I just took another drink from my beer and smiled. I think she told me a joke that got me giggling, but I don’t remember it. So, I took another drink for my beer and give her a hug.

Wait… Why did I not like drinking again? This stuff is great! We should do this again sometime! I wonder if I had drinks like this on my twenty-first birthday? Actually, I can’t remember, how did my last birthday go again?

I think I asked Lain this question while I was hugging her. My memories of the night sort of just cut off there…
