There was a distant rumble of thunder.
Alice looked towards the window as she unconsciously flaunted herself, aware that Ginny was studying her with her artist’s eye, as she had so many times before.
She was like a beautiful animal and it was clear that Ginny found just her presence, an overwhelming distraction. Alice looked back and noticed that Ginny’s breasts had tiny rivulets of sweat between them. She wanted to nestle there like a small child in need of comfort.
‘Isn’t it hot?’ Alice said with a sigh.
The thunder rumbled. A bee buzzed in the window.

‘How DARE you speak to me like that!’ she shouted. Alice was about to apologise and explain when she said, ‘Go away... leave me alone... you...! You... FREAK!’
Alice was devastated. She rushed out and ran upstairs to her room.
‘I am a freak,’ she wailed, with her head buried in the pillow, ‘a freak... a fucking freak!’

‘I’m sorry, but you really scared me. I didn’t mean to call you that… A freak, I mean. You don’t seem to understand the affect you have on people. Not just me.’ She sighed heavily.
Alice turned over with tears rolling down her cheeks. She looked at Ginny with eyes like large glistening amber pools. Ginny moved closer. It was almost as if she was falling into them, unable to stop. Ginny kissed her gently on the forehead. It was the first time that she had shown physical affection since Alice had joined the family, two years before.
‘Oh God why are you so bloody beautiful.’ she murmured.
