But he had saved up a lot of vacation time and now he was going back to stay there and visit for three weeks. The 27-year-old firefighter had worked hard so he felt like he deserved it. His parents weren't home when he first walked in the door but his 18-year-old sister Vanessa was sitting on the couch. She wore a long-sleeved shirt, a pair of pajama pants, and her bare feet were resting on the coffee table. She was playing some video game like he heard she normally was. Vanessa was a freshman in college but she went to a local college and lived at home. Dave couldn't believe that she did that. He had so much fun going away to college and it was definitely the best four years of his life. He didn't understand how Vanessa could want to give that up. "Hey!" she said with a smile as she saw him walk into the living room. He thought she might stand up to give him a hug or something but she seemed to into whatever video game she was playing to do so. He was her Facebook friend and all she ever posted about on there was the video games she was playing or had just bought or whatever. She was such a nerd. He looked at the glasses she was wearing too. They were kind of thick and he couldn't understand why she didn't wear contact lenses. The glasses made her look even nerdier and he wished someone would tell her to get contacts. She looked content just sitting there playing her video game. "Hey" he said back. "What are you up to?" "Just playing my game" she said and she looked at the screen not even looking at him. "Ha-ha" he laughed. "I guess that's not a surprise. I see all your Facebook posts that you're playing these games all the time. I hope you're not going to be doing that too much during the time that I'm home." "Well I just got this new game" she laughed. "So you probably won't see me anywhere else than on this couch the entire time that you're here." "Great" Dave laughed back and he went to his room to put his luggage away. The next day he slept in until a little after 10 a.m. He had slept in shorts and it was warm in the house so he just stayed in the shorts and t-shirt he was wearing. When he walked down to the living room he saw that Vanessa was already playing her video game. He had a seat on the other end of the couch that she was sitting on. "Morning" she said to him still looking at the screen and not him. He looked at her. She was also wearing shorts and she had her legs stretched out with her bare feet on the coffee table again. Vanessa was a small girl - she was only a little bit taller than five feet and she didn't weigh much more than 100 pounds. But compared to her small frame her legs looked rather thick. "Wow, your legs are skinny" she said to him out of the blue which startled him a little bit. "Don't you ever work them out?" Dave felt a little self-conscious when she said that. He was a firefighter and he could just imagine his firefighter buddies hearing his little sister tease him about his skinny legs. He worked his upper body a lot but not so much his legs. The last person he wanted teasing him about that was his kid sister. "They're strong enough" he said with a little bit of attitude. "I don't think they are" she said and this was the least amount of attention he saw her paying to her video game since he had been home. "I wouldn't be surprised if mine were stronger." "Ha-ha-ha" he laughed and he couldn't help but sound annoyed when he laughed. "OK, whatever. Your legs don't get strong sitting around here playing video games all day. Oh and by the way, you're a girl." "Hasn't been what I've been doing ALL day" she said back and he realized her game was paused. "I actually ran a couple of miles this morning when you were still sleeping. I do that every morning." "Well good for you" he said. "But I promise you that your legs aren't stronger than mine." "You wanna see?" she said to him smugly. "Wanna have a foot fight?" "What the hell is that?" he asked really starting to sound annoyed. "We push on each other's feet" she said and she already started repositioning herself on the couch to do it. "Put our feet against each other's and try to push the other one's legs all the way back." "That's a little weird" he said to her and he sounded like he wanted nothing to do with it. "No thanks." "Awe, are you afraid?" she teased with a bratty tone in her voice. "Afraid I'm gonna beat you? "No, it's just dumb" he said and even he was embarrassed at how defensive he sounded. "Heh-heh-heh" she chuckled. "I know how you boys are. If you thought you were going to win you'd be all out to prove it to me. You're afraid and you know it." "Alright, fine" he said sounding like she was really getting under his skin and she chuckled about that. "I'll do your stupid foot fight." Vanessa gave him a smirk and she got in the position to do it. She had her back against the arm of the couch, put her legs up in the air, and faced the bottom of her feet in his direction. He looked at the soles of her feet - they looked so smooth and soft and it was a reminder that those were the feet of his kid sister. He got in the same position as she was and touched the bottom of his feet to hers. They felt so soft and it was kind of a weird feeling having his feet touch the bottom of his sister's the way that they were. He looked at her with those nerdy glasses on and she gave him a cute smile. "Ready?" she said to him. "One, two, three, go!" Dave started pushing and he felt like he was trying to push against steel. He could not believe the strength that his much younger sister had in her legs and he immediately got a look of despair on his face. She started pushing back his legs and he could do nothing to stop her. Dave could not lose to his little sister in this and he put every bit of strength he had into pushing her legs in the opposite direction but he couldn't even slow her down. She pushed more and forced his legs all the way back winning easily. She held him there for a couple seconds just to make it clear she won before she finally pulled her legs away. "Told you I'd beat ya" she said. She sounded a bit smug when she said it but she kept a straight face and certainly didn't sound like she was bragging or anything. She just simply sat back in her regular position and resumed playing her video game. Regardless of how she was responding, Dave was still furious. "I didn't even know what the hell we were doing" Dave said and he sounded much more defensive than he probably needed to. "That's the only reason you won." "Well want to go at it again?" she said. "Now that you know what you're doing?" "Yeah" he said and his male ego wouldn't allow him to say otherwise. Vanessa just paused her game again and got back in the position to have the foot fight. Dave looked at her soft bare feet again and he felt so humiliated that she had defeated him the previous time. He put his feet against hers and could feel her soft feet again as they prepared for their rematch. "Ready?" she said to him. "One, two, three, go!" They started again and it wasn't any easier for Dave the second time around. He felt so helpless against his smaller sister's much stronger legs as she pushed his back with ease. She put a little but more force into it and almost knocked him off of the couch. She then pulled her legs away and resumed playing her game. Dave sat up and he had never been so humiliated in his life. Vanessa was sure to stretch her legs back out and rest her bare feet back on the coffee table. Dave felt extremely awkward sitting next to her after what had just happened but Vanessa looked plenty comfortable. He sat there quietly for a few minutes before walking out of the room and she didn't say a word to him. A couple of nights later Dave wanted to watch a baseball game. Vanessa had been on the couch playing video games since Dave had woke up that morning and he figured she had to be about ready to stop. But she was still playing her game when he walked in the room. He sat on the couch - she had to at least be done soon. "You almost done?" he asked her trying to be nice. "Nope" she said proudly. "This is what I'm going to be doing for the rest of the night." "I'd really like to watch a baseball game" he said to her. "Tough" she said to him and she still had her eye on the television. "I was here first." "Come on" he said and he couldn't believe a 27-year-old guy was having this disagreement. "You've been on here all day." "I'll foot fight you for it" she said. "If you can beat me then you can have the TV for the rest of the night." "Vanessa, come on" he said. "You know you ... " "I know what?" she said with a bit of a smile on her face. "I know that I'll beat you?" She smiled again and Dave couldn't help but smile back a little bit. "Fine" he said. "I'll foot fight you for it." She put her feet back up in the air and Dave put his feet against hers. He didn't know why he agreed to this as he knew that she was going to destroy him. He wished there was some way to get out of it but there was no way by that point. Vanessa looked like she was ready to go. "Ready?" Vanessa said to him. "One, two, three, go!" They began and Dave just did not have a chance. Whatever running that Vanessa was doing had made her legs much stronger than his and she was able to force him back with ease. This time she pushed him so hard that she knocked him right off of the couch when she won. "Woops" she said as she looked at her older brother on the ground. "Heh-heh-heh. You want to go best two out of three again?" "No thanks" Dave said as he looked embarrassed getting back up on the couch. Vanessa went back to playing her game while Dave sat a bit closer to her on the couch just because that's where he ended up. He looked at her sitting there playing her game because she had beaten him. He was going to have to go find somewhere else to watch his game so he started to stand up. "Wait, where are you going?" she said and she put her leg over his legs. "Going to watch the game on the smaller TV in the den I guess" he said and her leg being over his stopped him from being able to get up. "No wait watch this part of the game" she said to him. "I want you to see how good I can do." "No thanks" Dave said with annoyance. She gave him a bit of a bratty smile, paused her game, and then wrapped both of her legs around his legs. He tried to get away but she squeezed tighter and completely had him trapped. He was trying to get free and then he actually used his hands to try to pry her legs apart. Vanessa giggled since none of his attempts were working. The frustrated guy pulled on her legs even harder and could feel how strong they felt when he did. He tried moving his body around and the more he moved around the more he could feel how much stronger her legs were than his. Vanessa just looked at him and she looked extremely proud. "You're just wasting your energy trying to get free" she said to him. "My legs are way stronger than yours." Hearing that drove him crazy. He was a 27-year-old firefighter and the last thing he wanted to hear was that his 18-year-old nerdy sister had way stronger legs than him. But it was the truth and because of that he was stuck. He gave up fighting and had to sit there and watch her play her video game as opposed to going to watch his baseball game like he wanted to. As she played her game, Vanessa kept her legs locked around his tightly and he could feel the strength in them the entire time. A few days later Dave had been out at the mall and when he came home, Vanessa was of course in the living room playing video games. Sitting next to her on the couch was an extremely nerdy looking guy that looked to be about her age, maybe a year older, playing the game with her. The two of them were sitting extremely close to each other. "Hey Dave" Vanessa said and she spoke friendlier to him than she normally did. "This is my friend, Zack." Friend. They were sitting plenty close on the couch and their legs were almost touching each other so Dave could tell that these weren't just two friends playing video games together. They were either more than friends or they both wanted to be yet they were still using video games as their method of making that happen. Dave felt his jealously kicking in. He was 27-years-old and he didn't have a girlfriend. It had been close to a year since he had gotten laid, even. Now these two dorks were sitting there playing their video games together. Zack would probably even give her a kiss goodbye afterwards. Dave figured he'd give them a bit of a hard time. "Hey Zack" Dave said with a smile on his face as he sat down on the couch next to them and the nerdy looking Zack already looked like he felt uncomfortable. "Playing some video games? This your idea of having a date with my sister?" Zack said nothing and Dave couldn't believe how much of a dork the kid was. "Maybe it is" Vanessa said and her tone made it clear that she was not pleased about the way that her older brother was asking. "Maybe this is a date. What's wrong with that?" "Oh nothing at all" Dave said very sarcastically and it made him feel good to see how much Zack was blushing. "Playing video games is a great way to get in with chicks. You better just be careful, sis, because when the other chicks find out how much of a stud this guy is they're all gonna be lining up to date him." "Alright Dave, that's enough!" Vanessa said angrily as she paused her game and set her controller down rather roughly. "Don't worry, a lot of them have a temper like this" Dave said to Zack who still didn't respond. "Dave, cut it out right now!" she said to him angrily. She actually stood up and walked over to stand in front of Dave on the couch. She looked angry and even though she had proven on a couple of occasions that she had much stronger legs than her brother, she did not look intimidating in the least. She was petite, nerdy, and she was Dave's little sister. "Don't let your boyfriend here see you get this angry" Dave teased. "Might turn him off." Vanessa then lost it and she punched Dave in the shoulder. He was surprised at how hard she was able to punch despite how small and girly her fist looked. Even though it was just his shoulder that she punched, the punch hurt quite a bit and he reacted by swinging right back at her. Vanessa was ready for the swing and Dave missed. She swung back with a punch that was just as hard but this time she punched him right in the face so it hurt much more. He tried to swing back at her but he wasn't quick enough. Vanessa punched first and she punched him right in the nose. For a small girl she punched hard and the fact that it was in the nose made it much worse. Dave could not control himself at all and he started to cry with the tears coming down his face rapidly. He was 27-years-old and he had just gotten beat up in his parents' living room by his much younger sister. He looked at Zack who he was trying to embarrass and now he was the one that ended up getting embarrassed. He looked back up at Vanessa who had a look on her face like she would punch him again if she had to. Still crying from the last punch, he did not want her to do it again. He got up off of the couch and ran up to his bedroom crying. Dave just lay in his bed for the rest of the afternoon and didn't get up. Even when it was time for dinner he told his parents that he wasn't feeling good and that he wasn't going to eat. He was too embarrassed to face her. He then heard the door open and saw Vanessa walk into the room, closing the door behind her. "Please get out of here" he said and she just walked closer to his bed anyway. "I'm trying to sleep." "I just wanted to make sure you're alright" she said and she sat on the corner of the bed. Now that she had beaten him up she was acting more confident than usual. "I'm fine" he said and he wouldn't even look at her. "Fine?" she said. "In bed 'trying to sleep' at 7:30 in the evening? And it's been at least over six hours since you've eaten anything. So something's the matter." "Don't you worry about me" he said and he was starting to sound very impatient. "Look at me!" she said sternly and something about the way that she spoke made him feel like he better look so he did. "I'm sorry I hit you today. I shouldn't have done that. But you made me so mad. I like Zack a lot and you were making him and me uncomfortable. So I overreacted - I'm sorry." "Just get out of here" Dave said and Vanessa gave a look of frustration at how dismissive he was being. "Just don't start anything like that with me and Zack again" Vanessa said as she stood up. Dave looked away again but as she was walking out he couldn't help but look at her. She was nine years younger than he was and she had beaten him up. Although she did apologize she also warned him not to do it again. Did that mean she would beat him up like that again? Dave didn't know but he knew he didn't want to get beat up again. He was still going to be home for a couple of more weeks and it looked like his little sister was going to be calling the shots. **Email ajbrown2005@yahoo.com if you would like more information on my Custom Stories**
