My first quincest. I was bored, and these two are kinda fun to write about. Oneshot, although i may possibly turn it into a series of short stories ... If i get enough ideas. Not promising anything though.

A slight disclaimer: I'm not ... Alfred Hitchcock. Don't expect it to be too amazing.

Rated M for slight sexytime, but that kinda, yeah ... you'll find out.

Tegan's body was warm and wrapped loosely around mine, creating a small cocoon of heat under the summer-thin duvets. I could smell the faint, yet sweet scent of the soap she'd used earlier in the shower; not overpowering, but strong enough to smell a few centimetres away from her skin. She'd always smelt so sweet and warm. I pressed my face into her arm, breathing her in, feeling her heat radiating onto my own skin.

I felt her sigh out, her chest pressing gently against my back, then she tossed her head a few times before settling back into an untroubled sleep. I lay awake, listening to her steady breathing and running my fingers softly up and down her arm, making sure I wasn't rough or loud enough to wake her. She was a heavy sleeper; I was a non-sleeper.

I rolled over after several minutes of silence, watching Tegan sleeping, trying to get my body to do so too. I clamped my eyes tightly shut, forcing them to stay closed and perhaps tempt sleep back to me, but it only caused my head to begin aching. I sat up in bed, feeling the cool midnight air rushing around my body, causing goose-bumps to erupt down my arms and shoulders. I glanced back at Tegan's sleeping body and brushed a stray strand of her hair behind her ear before getting up and crossing the room to the bathroom, my forehead throbbing dully.

I didn't bother trying to turn on the light; after almost a year in this house together, I knew exactly where everything was kept and could pretty much make my way around in the dark. I opened the bathroom cabinet with one hand, the other one massaging my aching temple, as I raided the cabinet, through bottles and packages of prescriptions for an old cracked jar of aspirin. I unscrewed the safety lid and tipped two of the rounded pills onto my hand, before filling a toothpaste-stained night-glass with water and downing them both in one.

I exited the bathroom, the hot skin of my feet peeling from the porcelain tiles as I walked, glancing again at the bed. My eyes lingered on the alarm clock on the table on my side of the bed: 2:13 am. I pulled on one of Tegan's discarded hoodies and headed downstairs, through the kitchen and out onto the patio. I stood still, warming my feet on the reddish bricks that were still slightly hot from yesterdays heat-wave. I watched in a bored fascination as pale little wiggly lines of light wove across the ground in front of me: reflections of light from the pool of water.

I dreamily made my way over, sitting down on the concrete edge and dangling my feet in the water. I instantly regretted it, as my entire body broke out into a sea of goose-bumps - not for the first time since I woke up. My feet looked ghostly pale in the freezing water and I watched as I gently kicked them, creating ripples across the previously stilled surface. My eyes caught on several larger specks of light reflecting, I gazed at them, feeling more shivers creeping up my body.

I suddenly heard a soft voice, felt a body sitting down on the edge next to me, instantly warming my leg where bare skin met bare skin. I smiled as she slipped her hand into mine and rested her head on my shoulder.

"You're not sleeping again," she whispered, looking down at both of our pale feet dangling in the water.

"Mmm," I nodded, running my thumb softly over the palm of her hand. I felt her breathing out deeply, before she took her head from my shoulder. She pressed her lips softly against mine, cupping my cheek in her hand as her mouth lingered against mine. She pulled away after a few seconds, a smile playing on her face, before she pushed herself off the concrete edge and into the water, laughing as she did so.

A smirk crept across my face at the sight of her body bobbing in the water, her skin looking equally as pale as my feet under the small waves her splashing arms had created. I laughed loudly as she ducked her head under the surface, then returned several seconds later to brush her wet hair away from her face, flicking water in my direction.

My skin shivered as the tiny droplets hit my skin, causing me to cry out in a small voice of frustration and shock. She giggled and grabbed hold of my feet, clamping her fingers tightly around my ankles. I tried to kick out, but she was too strong, and simply smirked up at me before yanking me into the water, almost on top of her.

I surfaced my head, laughing and coughing and snorting water from my nose, whilst Tegan looked on with a grin. I rubbed at my eyes, trying to rid them of the stinging chlorine. I heard another small laugh from beside me. I splashed water casually in her direction as I turned, attempting to furrow my eyebrows and act as if this situation was not-at-all-funny-in-the-slightest, thank-you-very-much.

She pushed another wave in my direction that washed over the top of my head, filling my eyes and mouth again with the chemically-tainted water. I cursed her inside my head as my eyes stung once again; I raised my hands to them to rub the water out whilst she laughed and swam out further into the pool.

I attempted to follow, my sodden night clothes weighing me down and making me slow. I stopped and turned to make my way back to the edge, knowing that she would follow me. I reached out a hand to grab at the slippery concrete ledge, holding myself still in the freezing water whilst I waited for her. She bobbed in the center of the pool, obviously wondering whether or not I'd join her out there.

Once she saw that I wasn't moving, she began to make her way back over towards me, careful not to splash the water too much. She stood in front of me, head just breaking above the waterline. She put her hands out, grabbing hold of the ledge jutting out just above my head, clinging onto it for support, before leaning in and brushing her cool lips against mine.

A shiver flew down my body at the contact, jiggling down to my toes. I pushed my lips urgently against Tegan's as my hands reached out to grasp at her shoulders, supporting my weight in the water as well as helping close any miniscule gaps between our bodies. She let a small groan escape from between our lips as her arms fell from the edge and looped over my shoulders, her chest crashing into mine. I froze as both our heads sunk beneath the water, completely forgetting to hold my breath. I could blurrily just about make out her face, grinning at me, before she pushed back up to the surface. I rushed to the surface and gasped a needed lungful of air before turning to a smirking Tegan.

I eyed her lips, almost hungrily as she pushed closer into me once more. She came in, raising her hands onto my cheeks and forcing my lips into hers. Her hands dropped again to my shoulders as mine gripped at her sides, my lips leaving hers to connect with her neck, sucking on her skin gently. My breath, now steadily turning colder, danced across her neck before I slid down to kiss at her collar bone, eliciting another soft moan.

My fingers tugged at the bottom of her sodden pyjama shirt, slowly pulling it up over her head and dropping it into the water where it floated for a couple of seconds before submerging. I placed my lips over hers as my left hand ran up her side, the turned inwards to connect with a silky smooth and plumper part of her body. She sucked in air as I rubbed my fingers slowly across her skin, playing with her nipple.

Her hands wandered down to my stomach, plucking at my tshirt, breathing heavily against my neck as both my hands pressed against her breasts. Tegan pressed her chin onto my shoulder, my hands falling to her waist as my shirt joined hers on the bottom of the pool. She nibbled softly on my bottom lip, ghosting her hand up the inside of my leg.

We both jumped suddenly as a voice shot through the darkness; "It's two am for fucks sake, some of us are trying to sleep! Go have sex in a pool some other time!"

I chuckled softly as Tegan's face began to flush a pale shade of pink, before turning in the water to face our neighbours' house, which also looked onto our yard. I turned back to see Tegan pulling her soaked shirt back over her head and hoisting herself up out of the pool.

"He said nothing about having sex in the shower," she muttered suggestively, before turning and making her way back inside, hinting that I should, indeed, be following.
