Life Hacks/Yng-Lexi/Try and help Bastian a little by admitting you sorta wanted him to see and touch you
“I… I’m sorry,” you say, somewhat selfconsciously folding your hands over your still exposed groin area. “It’s not Bastian’s fault, I was just playing with him.” You say.
“W.. what do you mean?” Charity asks, seeming a little uneasy for some reason. You do not pay much attention to her tone though, it’s entirely your fault that she wound up coming down so heavily on Bastian, so you really wanted to take on as much of the blame as you could. That being the case, you decided to come clean completely.
“Uhh… he caught me masturbating, but I pretended not to notice him until he came in closer to look and then I decided to act like I didn’t like him catching me, but really, I actually kinda wanted him to try to touch me down there.” You tell her.
You can sense some turbulent emotions coming from Charity for the moment, and a thought suddenly occurs to you that you’ve somehow messed up again. And, once again, by the time your racing mind managed to piece together exactly HOW it was that you had messed up, it was already too late, and your former twin turned to you with a very dark and serious expression and spoke to you with a heavy tone. “Lexy! Where did you learn about stuff like that?”
Shit! You just talked about masturbating and playing coy games with Bastian WAY too casually. While you might be able to come up with excuses or ways that a 10 year old might actually be able to think that way, it was your tone that was the huge problem. It was a tone that expressed familiarity with that sorta stuff, and you were fairly certain what direction Charity’s thoughts were going to go with that information. To make matters worse, the “oh shit!” expression on your face right now was something that was only going to be taken as more evidence in this direction for the Charity of right now who seemed to have undergone some kind of strange attitude shift from how she treated you before when you were her twin brother.
“Lexy…” she uses a sensitive tone as she looks at you with a great deal of concern and intensity in her eyes, “has March ever done things with you? You know… like what I used to do with Angel?”
Shit! Now that your senses are on high alert, you are getting a REALLY sensitive read of the subtle body-language and voice-inflection cues Charity is giving off. Her tone says this is something she has suspected for a long time. To make matters worse, when you were your old 15-year-old male self you actually DID have several regular mutual masturbation sessions with March. You can see exactly where this is coming from now, everything you did with March before must have been re-interpreted as though you have always been a girl who was 4 years younger than him, and that new perspective on the interaction really did not look good for the poor guy. You bet your entire family, at least everyone at the level of Bastian and older, previously suspected what the two of you were doing when you would lock Bastian out with just the two of you, so with the way things are now you stand little chance of shaking off Charity’s suspicion. Even if you put on your most convincing lie and best acting skills right now, there’s no way she’s going to let this go.
Really though! The most baffling thing of all in all of this is, why the HELL is Charity suddenly acting like such a caring and protective big sister to you!? Her attitude now is like a complete 180 from the way it was before! As things were before, after Charity started to torture you, you began to develop a good relationship with Brittany who had become more tender, understanding, and protective of you. The Charity of now, toward her little sister Lexi, seems to have the exact same attitude that Brittany had to your former self, only it almost seems like her attitude is even MORE protective in nature. How is it that this sex and age change prompted such a huge attitude change in her!?
Well, first thing’s first. You’ve gotta find some way to mitigate the damages here. You already know lying is not going to work, so...
What will you do?
