My Sister's Sexy Friend
She Wasn’t Supposed To Look At Me Like That
Ethan (ML))
Unfortunately.
Lily (Sister)
Vanessa’s staying over tonight.
Lily (Sister)
Don’t be weird around her.
Ethan (ML))
Why would I be weird?
Lily (Sister)
Because you literally stared at her chest during dinner.
Ethan (ML))
I was looking at the tattoo.
Lily (Sister)
The tattoo wasn’t moving.
Ethan (ML))
Goodnight, Lily.
Ethan threw his phone onto the bed with an annoyed groan.
The problem wasn’t that Vanessa was hot.
The problem was that she knew she was hot.
Every movement. Every smile. Every slow blink from those dark eyes felt intentional.
And tonight had been worse than usual.
That tiny black dress. Her bare legs brushing his under the table. The way she smirked whenever he lost his train of thought.
Ethan (ML))
It was torture.
He ran a hand through his messy hair before leaving his room to grab water from the kitchen.
The apartment was silent.
Only the dim city lights leaked through the massive windows.
Ethan (ML))
(Then he heard it.)
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan frowned slightly and walked closer.)
The guest room door was slightly open.
And that’s when he saw her.
Sitting on the edge of the bed in an oversized shirt that barely covered her thighs.
Ethan (ML))
(His breathing instantly slowed)
Vanessa(FL)
(Her phone rested in one hand while the other played lazily with her hair.)
Vanessa(FL)
(Then her eyes lifted.)
Vanessa(FL)
(Straight toward the doorway.)
Vanessa(FL)
(Straight toward him.)
Vanessa(FL)
(For a second, neither of them moved.)
Not surprised. Dangerous.
Lily (Sister)
“Enjoying the view?” she asked softly.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan’s throat tightened.)
Ethan (ML))
“You should close your door.”
Ethan (ML))
“And miss catching you staring at me again?”
His jaw clenched instantly.
Ethan (ML))
“You think highly of yourself.”
Vanessa(FL)
“I think,” she said calmly while crossing one smooth leg over the other, “you’re trying very hard not to look at my legs right now.”
Ethan (ML))
(His silence betrayed him.)
That smug smile returned.
Ethan (ML))
(God, he already hated that smile.)
Ethan (ML))
(It made him want her even more.)
[Message Received — 11:58 PM]
Vanessa(FL)
(Unknown Number)
You look cute when you’re trying not to sin.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan stared at the message.)
Ethan (ML))
(Then slowly looked back toward the guest room.)
Vanessa(FL)
(Vanessa was still watching him.)
Ethan (ML))
(He realized this was no longer one-sided.)
Don’t Text Me Like That
After Vanessa secretly texts Ethan for the first time, the tension between them grows through dangerous late-night conversations while Lily sleeps only a few rooms away.
Ethan (ML))
Ethan stared at the message for almost thirty seconds.
Vanessa(FL)
You look cute when you’re trying not to sin.
Ethan (ML))
(His jaw tightened.)
Then another message appeared.
Vanessa(FL)
You’re staring again.
Ethan (ML))
Slowly, Ethan lifted his eyes toward the guest room.
Vanessa(FL)
Vanessa was still sitting on the bed.
Vanessa(FL)
(Still watching him.)
And somehow that was worse than if she’d tried to hide it.
Ethan (ML))
You enjoy causing problems?
The typing bubble appeared instantly.
Vanessa(FL)
Only when the reaction is entertaining.
Ethan (ML))
You flirt with your best friend’s brother often?
Vanessa(FL)
Only the hot ones.
Ethan (ML))
Ethan cursed softly under his breath. Jesus Christ....
Every message from her felt dangerous.
Vanessa(FL)
Relax. I’m just teasing you.
**

I have a reader too who have this teasing skill better than anyone else I know.

Ethan (ML))
That’s the problem.
Disappeared.... Appeared again....
Vanessa(FL)
You want me to stop?
Ethan (ML))
(His fingers froze above the keyboard.)
Ethan (ML))
(Because the truthful answer was no. Not even close.)
Before he could reply, another message arrived.
Vanessa(FL)
Then stop looking at me like you want to drag me into your room.
Ethan (ML))
(His pulse jumped violently.)
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan looked up again.)
Vanessa(FL)
(Vanessa slowly crossed one leg over the other while holding eye contact.)
She was doing this on purpose.
Every second of it. And the worst part?
She looked completely calm while his entire body burned alive.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan finally forced himself to walk back into his bedroom before he did something stupid.)
The moment the door shut behind him, another notification appeared.
Vanessa(FL)
Good boys say goodnight before leaving.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan laughed once in disbelief.)
Ethan (ML))
I’m not a good boy.
Vanessa(FL)
That’s why this is fun.
Ethan (ML))
(His throat went dry.)
[Ethan threw himself onto the bed, staring at the ceiling while trying to ignore the images replaying inside his head.]
Ethan (ML))
(Her bare legs. That oversized shirt. That smile.)
(F¥ck...His phone buzzed again.)
Vanessa(FL)
If Lily wasn’t here tonight…
The typing stopped. Then restarted.
Vanessa(FL)
Would you still be pretending you don’t want me?
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan’s breathing slowed dangerously.)
Ethan (ML))
(Every instinct inside him screamed not to answer.)
Three dots instantly appeared. Then disappeared.
Vanessa(FL)
Good. Because I’m getting tired of pretending too.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan sat upright immediately.)
At the exact same moment—
A bedroom door suddenly opened down the hallway.
Lily’s voice echoed sleepily through the apartment.
Lily (Sister)
“Vanessa…? You still awake?”
(Ethan’s heart nearly stopped.)
Almost Caught
[[Lily unknowingly interrupts Ethan and Vanessa’s dangerous late-night tension. But instead of stopping, the risk only makes things more addictive between them.]]
Lily (Sister)
“Vanessa…? You still awake?”
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan’s heart slammed against his ribs.)
From the hallway, he heard movement inside the guest room.
Vanessa(FL)
(Then Vanessa answered casually, almost too casually.) “Yeah. Couldn’t sleep.”
Lily (Sister)
“Come cuddle with me then. My room’s freezing.”
Ethan immediately sat up straighter on his bed.
Vanessa(FL)
(No. No fucking way.)
A few seconds later, Vanessa texted him.
Vanessa(FL)
Your sister has terrible timing.
Ethan rubbed a hand over his face.
Vanessa(FL)
You sound disappointed.
Ethan (ML))
You’re enjoying this too much.
Vanessa(FL)
Maybe I enjoy watching you lose control.
(His jaw tightened instantly. He could practically picture that smug expression on her face.)
Then another message came through.
Vanessa(FL)
You know what I keep thinking about?
Ethan (ML))
Dangerous question.
Vanessa(FL)
The way you looked at my legs tonight during dinner.
Ethan (ML))
(Heat crawled up his neck.)
Vanessa(FL)
You looked like you wanted to touch me so badly it hurt.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan closed his eyes briefly.)
Because she wasn’t wrong.
The apartment finally became quiet again. Too quiet.
Ethan tried distracting himself with music. But Failed.
Tried scrolling social media. Failed.
Every thought returned to her.
A soft knock hit his bedroom door.
His entire body went still.
Slowly, Ethan walked toward the door and opened it slightly.
Messy hair falling over one shoulder.
And those dark eyes staring directly into his.
[Neither of them spoke at first. The silence itself felt intimate. Dangerous.]
Ethan (ML))
“You should be asleep,” Ethan said quietly.
Vanessa(FL)
(Vanessa leaned lightly against the doorframe.) “So should you.”
His eyes dropped for half a second.
Because her shirt had slipped slightly off one shoulder again, exposing smooth skin glowing under the dim hallway light.
Vanessa(FL)
“You really struggle with eye contact,” she whispered teasingly.
Ethan (ML))
(Ethan exhaled slowly.)
Ethan (ML))
“You came to my room at midnight wearing that. Don’t start acting innocent now.”
Vanessa(FL)
(A tiny smile touched her lips.)
Vanessa(FL)
“There’s nothing innocent about me.”
The tension instantly thickened.
Vanessa(FL)
(Then Vanessa stepped closer.)
Close enough for him to smell her perfume.
Close enough that one more step would put her against his chest.
Vanessa(FL)
“Tell me something honestly,” she murmured.
Vanessa(FL)
“Do you think about me when you’re alone?”
Ethan (ML))
(His pulse became uneven.)
Because the answer was embarrassing.
Vanessa watched his silence carefully before smiling to herself.
Ethan (ML))
“That’s what I thought.”
Ethan grabbed the door behind her suddenly, trapping her lightly between his arm and the frame.
Her breathing finally changed.
First crack in her confidence tonight.
Ethan (ML))
“You ask dangerous questions,” he said quietly.
Vanessa(FL)
(Vanessa tilted her chin up.)
Vanessa(FL)
“But you still want to answer them.”
Their faces were too close now.
And they’d cross a line they could never uncross.
Lily’s sleepy voice echoed again from down the hallway.
