They are

James disregarded the coffee in front of him. "Well...let's start with what we know, then. The easiest problem to find is...we uh..."

Exhausted, Sally flopped back in her seat. "We fucked, James. We. Brother and sister. Fucked. In your shower...with an alien."

He nodded. "So the problem is, we have a problem with it?"

She shook her head. "Why, though?"

"...because we lost control?"

"So, what, if we had done it without her involved we would've been okay with it?"

James shook his head. "No...we wouldn't have ever done it. But we did, and we know it...she's not the problem, is she?"

Sally shook her head. "She had no idea...and you saw what she looked like after. She was...happy. Even confused why we weren't."

"Yeah...so the problem is, we...had sex. We didn't intend to. We want to be angry but if it's at ourselves, we won't be okay..."

Sally bit her lip. "The problem is... I want to feel that good again. Just...not with my brother."

He felt a pit in his stomach. "Yeah...me too."

"Maybe...we need to treat it like a breakup."

"Like...breaking up with what happened, but staying siblings?", he asked with a scrunched face.

Sally shrugged. "Yeah...maybe."

James glanced at the door. "Well...Fran sort of...told me to take her on a date."

Sally nodded thoughtfully. "That could work...maybe if we actually...find real partners, we can move on?"

Move on? That was an odd word choice...not inaccurate. James felt it too, the desire to do it again. Real partners...someone they could turn to. Fran wasn't a bad choice. She was pretty, charming, and even a redhead...and he'd known her almost as long as Sally. Even if they were never very close. "Yeah...I don't really have much for friends, but if you want I could-"

"No, I should just...find someone the right way. Go places there are people with common interests and all..."

"You think this will work? Really work?"

Sally shrugged. "Maybe? It's not like we can just put an ad out, 'help we're siblings that fucked and don't know what to do'. This isn't a normal problem."

James nodded. "Right...well. If the main problem is that we want to do it again, maybe partners that are okay to have turns out to be the solution...do you have anyone you've wanted to ask out?"

"No, but...I'll find a guy I like. Just...don't be rude to Franny again, okay?"

"Promise...who knows? Maybe we'll be a good couple."

"Yeah, but...what about Aurora? We can't leave her alone here..."

James sighed. "Maybe...maybe I do need to make that call...maybe someone there can better find out what happened if I tell them everything about that night."

Sally couldn't help but sigh, a sad look on her face. "It's going to hurt...seeing her go. You know she trusts us..."

"And sometimes helping someone that trusts you...means letting them go."

They both stared at the floor. What had to happen next would be nothing short of heart breaking...
