Sam sighed as he lounged on the couch. He had gone and crawled out of bed, taken a shower, and gotten all ready for school on this particular Wednesday morning only to remember that his high school was doing this new delayed start thing on Wednesdays. He didn't need to be at school for another hour, so here he was wishing he could've got a little more sleep.
As he leaned back, his head hanging off the back of the couch, Sam noticed his twin sister Sabrina coming down the stairs. "What are you doing up already?" she asked when she saw her brother. "Did you forget we didn't have to get up early again?"
"Yup," Sam grumbled. "But what about you? Why are you up?"
"I've got this dumb History test today I need to study for," Sabrina explained as she plopped herself down on the couch next to Sam. She didn't sound particularly thrilled.
Sam couldn't blame her. He knew his sister wasn't great at History and struggled with it in school. He felt the same way about Math. The two siblings were both smart, but had their own strengths and weaknesses. They may have looked quite similar, but their brains were rather different. As children, they had almost been indistinguishable from each other except for the fact that Sam was a boy and Sabrina was a girl. They were easier to tell apart now that they were older. The two had similar builds and features and they were the same height, but Sabrina's feminine (though not extremely curvy) figure compared to Sam's frame as well as their diverging personalities and styles made it much easier to tell who was who.
"I like your shirt, bro," Sabrina commented as she fished her History textbook out of her backpack.
Sam looked down at what he was wearing, specifically a pair of dark-colored jeans and a t-shirt of a rock band both he and his sister liked. He was thankful that while he and Sabrina's interests had developed down different paths as they'd grown up that they still had plenty in common, such as their taste in music.
"Yours is cool too," Sam said, noticing his sister was wearing a girls' cut t-shirt of another band they both liked. It was more form-fitting, tight across her stomach and her modest B-cup breasts, making the outline of her bra underneath semi-visible. The rest of her outfit consisted of a pair of very tight purple skinny jeans and a pair of white tennis shoes. Her dark hair, which was just short of shoulder-length like her brother's though more well taken car of, was pulled back into a ponytail off to one side.
"Thanks," Sabrina said, smiling before turning back to her studying.
Things soon fell silent. Their mother was away with some friends for a few days, so there wasn't much noise in the house. The silence didn't last too long though. Sabrina soon looked up at her brother with a cheeky smirk on her face. Sam knew it meant she'd had one of her ideas.
"What is it?" Sam asked.
"So, I was thinking," Sabrina said. "How about ..."
