Stepsisters Don't Kiss Like That

The blended family portrait was supposed to take ninety minutes. It has been eleven, and the zipper on your coordinated dress is stuck halfway up your spine, your stepsister Remy's fingers are warm against your bare back, and the photographer is knocking on the dressing room door asking if everything is okay. Everything is not okay. Saoirse Vane has been your stepsister for six months and your problem for every single second of them — and right now, with her breath on your shoulder and the lock on the door still unturned, the family photo is the last thing either of you is thinking about.
