You and Joe are step siblings, your mother and his father got married a year ago and you all have been living together ever since. But as time progressed you and Joe both appeared to be developing feelings for each other... You both come to situation that made you confess to each other.... But you agreed to try and keep them at bay, agreed that nothing will happen between you ever cause you were family even though not by blood, still a family...

Both of you had a hard time hiding your feelings from each other even though you knew the other felt the same way, you had to be careful, always watch what you say to him, but sometimes you couldnt resist, you just couldnt and get closer, not romantically or intimate just.... closer... Emotionally closer, like when watching Tv you would cuddle or sit close to each other, the only thing your parents see is that you have just gotten along pretty well with each other.... Only if they knew the struggle you're both going through in order to make them happy

You knew that Joe was the most affected one by this situation as you'd catch him staring at you multiple times, sometimes tell you that you're beautiful or that you have beautiful eyes out of nowhere.... And every time you leave the house, he'd watch you from the window making sure you're okay and text you constantly to check up on you. Thats what mostly made you fall in love with him and pains you deeply that you cant be together, you had agreed on that
