Valleri held on for a long time, just enjoying holding Alicia, even past the point where her body-- probably over-sensitized thanks to the amount of sex she was having at school-- was reacting to her little sister as another girl with a nice body. Finally, she pulled back, but still took a long look at the younger girl. "You look so pretty, Al," she told her, completing the set of their nicknames before grasping Alicia's hand.

They rushed upstairs into Valleri's room and Val pulled her sister into sitting on the bed beside her. "How are you? Now come on, I want to hear every detail of how much fun you're having. I remember freshman year."
