“She’s your cousin? She… she doesn’t look a lot like you.”
I stared at Lilly with a blank expression. This was always one of my favorite games. “What do you mean?”
“Well, you know. She’s…” This is how most people reacted. Hunting carefully for words fearing they would say something offensive.
Jewel’s dark skin had confused all my friends growing up. The neighborhood we lived in was very much white middle America and most people barely knew a mixed family other than mine. My Aunt Kelly first introduced Henry when I was four. So it all seemed natural to me. I had learned to make a game out of this awkward moment. Probably shouldn’t be doing it with my girlfriend though.
“She’s… Is she adopted?” Poor Lilly. I kissed her cheek and felt the warmth of her embarrassment on my lips. I was ready to explain when I heard his gravely, husky voice.
“There he is! There’s my nephew!” I turned to Uncle Henry holding out his arms. Even as an adult, he still seemed like a giant to me. He had played for the Army football team and had never stopped working out. He wrapped his thick arms around me in a bear hug, lifting me off my feet. “Charlie! How long has it been?”
“I think two or three years! They keep scheduling the family reunions during my finals week!” He gave me a a playful spin and dropped me back to my feet as I gasped for breath.
“Too damn long! Jewel asks about you every time she sees her Auntie!” I was almost five when Jewel was born. Both of our families lived together in this huge house our Grandma left us. She had almost been like a little sister to me until they moved away when I was ten. Even after that, we spent summers together until I left for college.
“I was going to go see her after I finished introducing…”
Uncle Henry stopped me by dramatically acting as if he was shot in the heart by an arrow. “Now this must be the young beauty that has stolen my beloved nephew’s heart! The famous Lilly. And what a lovely flower you are!” He was always such a shameless flirt. It was easy to see why Aunt Kelly had fallen head over heels for him.
“Pleased to meet you.” Lilly was blushing. We had fallen for each other fast, and started living together after only a few months. So far it’s seemed like an amazing dream, but we were still learning so much about each other. This was her first time meeting anyone in my family besides my parents.
“Lilly, this is my Uncle Henry. I was just about the introduce you to his daughter, Jewel.” The name fit, she was so bubbly and cute as a kid that she seemed to sparkle. I really hadn’t seen her at all int the past few years. We were connected on social media, but she barely posted anything. She left a lot of comments on mine though.
“Jewel, get over here! I actually wanted to talk with you Charlie. I think we can all help each other out!” I raised an eyebrow, unsure where he was going. “Now, you know I’m a little protective of my daughter.”
“Ha!” A little? It was an inside family joke. Uncle Henry barely took his eyes off her when she wasn’t with me as kids. One time this neighborhood punk had chased her and called her some pretty terrible names. Uncle Henry bolted out of the house and had threatened the kid, going full roaring Papa Bear. The kid pissed his pants. “Yeah, so?”
I was taken aback. Oh, how much difference a few short years could make. That last summer we spent together, Jewel had been short and gangly. I mean, who wasn’t awkward when they were sixteen? But now as she was ready for college she had grown as tall as me and filled out in very desirable places.
“Hi, Daddy!” Jewel stood on her toes and Uncle Henry ducked his head so she could kiss him on the cheek. Then she gave me a huge smile. “Charlie! I’ve missed you so much!”
“Missed you too, Jewel!” She practically hopped into my arm for a hug. Her soft breasts pressed against me, refusing to be ignored. But still, I could still see the same girl I grew up with in her beautiful eyes. “This is my girlfriend, Lilly.”
“Jewel, nice to meet you!” Lilly held out her hand, but Jewel was a hugger and wouldn’t be denied.
Lilly froze awkwardly. “Good to meet you to, your hair is amazing!” It was really cool. Her dark natural hair was done in a curly updo. Random curled locks were dyed a vibrant green that matched her eyes. It was really eye-catching.
Jewel let her go and beamed. “Thank you!
Uncle Henry looked at me and seemed very serious. “Now, your girl is moving out for a while? Isn’t that right?”
“Yeah, Lilly had gotten a study abroad scholarship. She’s going to research architecture in France!” I was really proud of her, but I was going to miss her. She would be away for six months.
“And you need a roommate? Well, as you know Jewel is starting her first semester of college. And you know how I feel about college boys.”
Jewel rolled her emerald eyes, they were the identical color of her Mom’s. Her skin tone was only slightly lighter than her father’s extremely dark complexion and it really made her eyes pop like… well like jewels. “Dad, I’ll be fine! I’m not stupid.”
“I know, I know. I trust you. It’s the boys I don’t trust. Which is why I thought maybe you two kids could live together. I would feel so much better if you were living with family.”
I had an immediate memory of the last summer I spent with Jewel. I was getting ready for college and didn’t want my little cousin following me around. She was so clingy, trying to be everywhere I was. It gave me a moment of hesitation, but Lilly burst in and accepted on my behalf. “Oh! That’s perfect!”
Couldn’t back out of it now. I smiled and nodded, “Yeah, that really worked out. It’ll be nice to have you, Jewel.”
“Yeah, I’m looking forward to it!” She smiled at me, and her gaze lingered. Her eyes met mine and her lips spread wide. And I’m sure I imagined it, but I swear I saw her tongue poke out and lick her lips.

Damn, Jewel had a lot more stuff than I did. Her things arrived a day before she did. Tons of boxes, some really heavy. Lilly had already packed and put most of her stuff in storage. She had gone to her parents for a few days and would visit me before she left. The movers just dropped her packages dead center of the living room.
I didn’t have much, I wasn’t one to collect a lot of things. I could tell quickly Jewel was going to need a lot of space. I considered swapping her bedrooms and giving her the bigger one. I could discuss it with her when she arrived. For now, I just needed the boxes out of the way.
I started sliding them against the wall. There was one large box that was an awkward weight. I pushed and it tipped over, sending me falling on top of it. The cardboard crushed beneath me and it’s contents spilled out.
“What the hell?” I looked down at the pile of clothes. Was it… lingerie? They were short and frilly, though some seemed little more than a one-piece bathing suit. Yet they seemed familiar somehow. Like I had seen them before.
I held up one dress, it was adorable and like something a kid would wear. Then the word came to my mind. “Lolita dress?” I had found myself thinking of Jewel a lot since the reunion a few weeks ago. I kept imagining her bouncing over to meet us. With her round bubble butt and her breasts seemed like two good handfuls. I tried not to think about it in those terms, but I couldn’t help it. It wasn’t perverted if it was a fact, right?
And now I pictured her in this dress. And I realized I was getting hard. Shamefully, I did my best to fold her clothes back up and repack the box. Still, that dirty feeling wasn’t leaving me and I was getting unbelievably horny.
Lilly had been gone a few days, and I told myself I was just lonely. I missed her. I had thought she was a shy girl when we first met in class, but she quickly proved to be far more sexually charged than I was. It was hard to keep up with her, but I loved trying. And suddenly I wouldn’t have her again for six months, no wonder I was feeling so randy.
So I went to my room and opened my computer. Lilly had done a little photo shoot for me as a present before she left. Her long brown hair stretched to her ass and she smiled at the camera wearing only her underwear, except for the pictures she didn’t even wear that. Some of the poses were best described as raunchy, making sure I could see anything I wanted.
I stroked my cock and stared at Lilly’s pictures till I came. I never closed my eyes, just pretended like she was right posing for me in real life. Though if I was being honest, maybe I was afraid that if I closed my eyes I wouldn’t have seen Lilly in my fantasies.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Uncle Henry was in tears as he left. “I’m gonna miss you, Baby Girl! You’re gonna call me every day, right?!”
Aunt Kelly was practically dragging him away the best she could. “She is not going to call you every day. Call us once a week, Jewel. Otherwise, your Father is going to be a wreck. Love you too, Charlie. You two have fun!”
And like that, it was just me and Jewel. “Hey, um… need any help unpacking?”
Jewel smiled at me, damn she had gotten cute. And she had worn these tight little shorts that practically seemed vacuum-packed on. “Sure, you know. I’ve missed you a lot, Charlie. We had a lot of really fun times. I always looked up to you so much.”
OK, that made me feel even more like a creep. “Yeah, I missed you too.” I tried to concentrate on those memories. The ones that we had growing up together. Honestly it only just made me feel creepier for thinking she was so damned hot now. “Hey, I noticed you had a lot of stuff. Would you want to swap rooms? I could take the smaller one. Big one has a walk-in closet.”
Her eyes lit up. “Oh! Yeah, thank you! I’ve got a lot of clothes!” I thought of the dress, no matter how much I didn’t want to. “I want to do something to thank you! Mind if we go out for some groceries?”
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
She hung off my arm while we shopped. Just as clingy as I remembered. Though what used to be a trait that annoyed me now filled me with… I didn’t know exactly what it filled me with. I liked it, probably too much. And that made me feel disgusted. Still, I let her lead the way.
Jewel picked out the ingredients, I had never seen her cook before. Plenty of time to pick up new skills I guess. “What are you making?”
“Pork Katsu! Ever have it?” Her eyes sparkled when she was excited.
I shook my head. “No, think I’ve seen it at some Sushi places.”
“Yeah! It’s a Japanese dish. I really got into cooking after watching a few animes! You ever see Food Wars?”
I recalled she watched a lot of cartoons when we were young. I had gotten into a few with her, mostly action stuff. Ninjas and big sword fights were always fun. But she religiously watched it almost every night. “No, I guess I don’t watch many cartoons anymore. You’re still into those?”
“Oh yeah!”
We had reached the checkout but before I could ask her more I realized the older checkout lady was staring holes into us, her lips curled in a frown. She caught that I saw her and quickly put on a big customer service smile. “My, what a lovely couple you two make!”
“Oh, she’s…”
Jewel cut me off. “Yeah, I’m so lucky to have him!” I turned bright red.
The woman was put off as Jewel kissed me on my cheek. “You seem really happy!”
I could feel her fingers digging into my arm. I realized she was angry. “Of course I’m happy, I’ve got his big white cock to satisfy me!”
The checkout lady turned white as a sheet and grit her teeth.
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
We walked out the door before Jewel cracked up. “Ha! Sorry if that was weird for you. That racist bitch.”
I could still feel my cheeks burning. “Was she being racist?”
Jewel pat me on the back. “Yeah, it’s harder to pick up on when you’re not the target. I’ve been the only Black girl in most of my classes. There’s this look some people give you. It’s hard to describe, but it’s like they are telling me I don’t belong with their eyes.”
We drove back listening to the radio. It was a lot to take in, I knew that sort of thing came up for her. Like I said, our town was mostly white. On more than one occasions I got into fights when people said some really shitty things to her. Words that I hated.
And what made me feel worse was just rolling around her words in my head. ‘I’ve got his big white cock to satisfy me.’ I was hard as hell, I hoped she didn’t notice.
I just told myself, she’s a pretty girl. You just need to get used to it, and soon enough she’ll just be your cousin again. “I’m sorry, Jewel. If anything like that comes up I might not always clock it. But I’ll always have your back, OK?”
She pressed her curly hair against my shoulder. “I know you will.”
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
Katsu was amazing, it was crispy and so juicy! And she worked fast too, Jewel had practiced this. When I started college I could barely boil water. Now I was starting my final year and I could get by. But this was incredible, on a whole different level than what I could make. “You could serve this in a restaurant!”
She beamed, and my heart melted a little. “Aw, thanks, Charlie. I was thinking about being a cook at one point.”
I asked her about it while stuffing my face. “Not anymore?”
“Nah, it’s a fun hobby but I really like fashion! I want to be a seamstress and make all sorts of pretty dresses!” And of course my mind went to the Lolita dress. I wondered if she had made it. “Hey, mind if I pop in something to watch on the TV?”
“No, not at all!” She cleaned up her plate while I was working on my seconds and then started rummaging through a box. I looked over her shoulder and saw it was full of DVDs. “Is that all anime?”
“Yeah! Still my favorite! I was in the middle of this one.” She showed me the art on the front, didn’t seem like something that would interest me. Two characters that looked alike, wrapped in these crazy period clothes holding each other.
She put the video in and told me, “I’m going to go shower and change into my PJs!”
“Sound good!” I cleaned up the mess from her cooking. This seemed like a fair arrangement, if she kept making amazing meals I could tidy up after. She wasn’t gone for long before she came out of my old room.
“Ok, I’m all ready for bed! Do you want to change too?”
Fuck.
She wore an adorable fox onesie that zipped up in the front. It was orange and had floppy white ears sticking out of the top. And the fox’ belly was white. It clung to her tightly, it had to be a few sizes to small. She wore no underwear, which was made obvious because her dark skin pressed against the fabric was almost entirely visible.
And her legs. Those long, beautiful dark legs that elegantly poured out like an artist’s brush stroke. The garment had short bottoms that rode very high on her thighs, so high that the bottom of her ass could be seen.
“You OK? You look really pale all of a sudden.” She tilted her head and the ears flopped on top of the outfit. And all I could imagine was slowly pulling down that zipper. Tooth by tooth.
I shook my head, “Yeah, sorry. Um, yeah. Is it OK if I take a shower first.”
“Of course! I hope I left you hot water!”
———————————————————————————————————————————————————
I took a cold shower, but because there was no warmth in the pipes left I did not want to jerk off to her. I had never really taken one before, I hated being cold. But I hoped all to hell that would be enough to at least take care of the raging erection.
It helped fight the urges, but I realized I could only stay there so long. All I was doing was making myself extremely uncomfortable. What’s worse is after I left I realized all my pajama pants and sweats made it more obvious. I had been better off in my jeans. I contemplated what to do.
I went back out to Jewel who had started watching the show on the couch. She looked up at me curiously. “Are you cold?”
I had wrapped myself in a blanket and wore it over myself like a cloak on top of two pairs of sweatpants and a hoodie. “Yeah, chill just got me.” I saw her nipples pushing against the fabric and I was already sweating.
“Well, come on!” She patted the seat beside her and I joined her. I did my best to look forward. Then I felt her arm snake around mine. She curled…
