Curious noises at night

Kate blushed at the question when Jan called her bluff. Sure, she's let her thoughts wander before about her sister's husband, but she was too shy to outright tease Rick in front of Jan. Rather, Kate tended to flirt with Rick when nobody was around. It was in her lonely nights that she would start to fantasize about holding onto Rick's broad shoulders while he would take her innocence. But in real life she folded like a wet rag.

"Oh! I was just kidding. You've done so much for me already. Thank you for dinner. And for cleaning up after dinner. And for letting me hang out with Jan," she blushingly responded. "What did Jan do to deserve such a good guy like you?"

"Ok Kate. But seriously, if you need anything tonight please don't hesitate to ask," Rick said as he turned to walk away.

Kate's eyes scanned his backside in those grey sweatpants as he walked away. She bit her bottom lip as she thought of how she'd like to take a big bite out of his ass if given the chance. She felt butterflies when he swung the kitchen towel over his shoulder and headed down the stairs. There was just something about a sexy man that can cook and clean.

Jan interrupted Kate's focus, "Careful how much you tease Rick. You'll just get him all randy and then I'll have to deal with him later."

"I'm not sure that's an awful thing," Kate responded sarcastically.

"So what are you gonna do?" Jan asked.

Frozen, Kate thought she was talking about Rick, but then realized she was going back to their conversation about Stuart.

"I don't know. Maybe get you to flirt with him to make him all randy so I'll have to deal with him." They both giggled.

A few hours later, after getting all the kids to bed, Kate started fluffing her pillows as she prepared her bed for the night.

"Good night sis!" Jan yelled from the next bedroom.

"Night you two! Make sure to keep it down tonight!" she joked.

She shut off her lights, but tonight she left her door open in case one of the kids started walking around in the middle of the night. She laid her head down, laying on the far side of the bed so she could see down the hallway slightly. The nightlight dimly lit her view.

The light next door turned off. But a moment later she saw Rick walk down the hall and down the stairs.

"What's he doing now?" she thought.

A minute or two passes by and he returns slowly back up the stairs in the dark. The dim nightlight cast shadows across what appeared to be his bare chest. He had changed out of sweats and t-shirt and into some gym shorts. As he slowly crept down the hall, trying not to make a sound, she could see his shorts bulging slightly and shifting at the crotch with each stride.

"Everything alright?" Kate whispered, really just trying to find a reason to get his attention.

"Oh sorry! Yes everything's fine. I was just double checking that the front door was locked. I was trying to be quiet so I didn't disturb you." He passed his bedroom door and stopped in her doorway again. "You have everything you need?"

'Why does he keep asking about my needs? Is he insinuating something or does he not even realize what he's implying?' she thought. 'He's just such a sweet, innocent guy that maybe I'm just reading too much into this.'

"No, I'm fantastic."

"You are fantastic Kate! I'm sorry Stuart wasn't able to come this trip. I'm not sure he realizes what mistake he's making by leaving you alone so much. Good night!" He flashed a gentle smile and turned to leave. His flattery made her butterflies come back.

Then she noticed how his muscles flexed as he turned. The late night shadows emphasized each muscle in the dark. She felt a little guilty as her eyes soaked in his masculine figure, but it didn't stop her. What's the hurt in looking, really?

"Night" she called back in almost a whimper. Her thoughts swirled as she drifted off to sleep.

What felt like only a moment passed and Kate was awakened to a muffled noise. She couldn't make out what it was. She lifted herself up and blinked her eyes, looking down the hall. Nothing.

She lay still for a moment. There it was again. A muffled sound like a person talking, but from far away. She sat up and leaned forward, trying to make out what the sound was. She looked at her phone and it was almost 1am.

Standing up, she heard it again, but this time it sounded like it was coming through the wall instead of the hallway. It can't be the kids then.

She went over to the wall and sure enough it was an odd sound coming from the wall that she shared with Jan and Rick's room. Still curious, she walked to the hall quietly, hoping the floor wouldn't squeak to give her presence away. As she approached their bedroom door the sound became more pronounced yet even more muffled.

The door wasn't completely closed and she could barely see into the crack of the opening. All she could make out were faint lights dancing across the wall inside. She pressed her head against the door to listen, but it gave way at her touch and surprisingly opened a few inches more.

Now she could see the edge of their bed and a lit candle sitting on the bedside table. 'Oh my!' she mouthed. Could they be going at it? Her interest was piqued but she tried to convince herself that she should go back to bed. She pulled away from the door as her inner demons tempted her to just take a look. 'What if they see me though?' she worried.

Just then a male moan released behind the door, followed by some movement and then that muffled sound again. There's no way she could ignore her interest now. She'd just say that she was hearing noises if questioned, and she was checking to see what the noise was all about.

Kate placed her hand on the door and ever so slowly pushed it open. The candlelight enveloped her as she stood in the doorway with her mouth and eyes wide open in anticipation.

She could see Rick sitting up in bed, but there was something wrong with how he was sitting. His arms were above his head.

Kate pushed a little more and behind the door appeared her sister Jan, completely naked. Jan's bare ass was pointing towards the door and she was straddling Rick as she crawled up towards him.
