Molly was kneeling on the bed, the sash of her nightgown tied carelessly. When she impulsively lunged forward, the already slightly open front of her gown gave way, revealing much more than she intended.
Chad was standing right across from her, and as he glanced down at Molly rushing toward him, he saw far more than he should have.
For a moment, Chad was too stunned to react.
Molly, realizing the impromptu peep show she had put on, quickly clutched her gown around her, her cheeks burning crimson. “Bro, close your eyes!” she exclaimed.
Embarrassed, Chad immediately turned away.
Molly felt as if she could never show her face again. Her mind was a blur, and in her panic, she forgot to properly secure her nightgown, focusing only on escaping the scene. She spun around on the bed, intending to dive under the covers for refuge.
But the bed was too soft, and the gown too long. She stumbled, stepping on the hem of the gown much like one might trip on the edge of a dress while running. Her balance faltered uncontrollably.
“Whoa, whoa, I’m falling, bro!” she cried out.
Chad, hearing her distress, swiftly moved to Molly’s side, aware that a tumble could send them both crashing into the frosted glass of the bathroom door. In his haste, he wrapped his arms around Molly, still bearing the accidental exposure of her nightgown, and toppled her onto the bed.
The bed was so soft that she might have bounced back up, but with her brother’s weight on her, Molly felt like she was sinking into the mattress.
Her back didn’t hurt much, thanks to Chad’s quick thinking to prevent her from smashing into the glass, but the pressure of his body on hers was uncomfortable.
And because Chad had been standing at the edge of the bed when he pushed her down, the height difference resulted in his face being buried in the softest part of Molly.
To make matters worse, her nightgown had come undone entirely!
If Chad had caught only a glimpse of Molly’s secrets before, now he was confronted with all of them.
Chad looked up to see a scene that would make any artist blush, including the birthmark on Molly’s chest... His forehead throbbed with a prominent vein, and once again, he was at a loss.
Molly could feel the awkwardness pressing against her, and with a mix of shame and anger turning her face and body beet red, she looked like she might burst a blood vessel at any second.
The cold metal of Chad’s belt buckle pressed against her thigh, chilling her sensitive skin. She couldn’t tell if the sensation was pain or just the cold.
Chad clenched his teeth and called out, “Molly!”
“Oh, this is mortifying, I can’t even,” Molly wailed, covering her face with her hands and starting to cry. She felt she could no longer face the world.
Chad took a deep breath and said, “Put your nightgown on.”
“Whimper, just go downstairs first.”
With eyes shut, Chad rose to his feet, pointing at Molly on the bed, “Shut up, no crying, get dressed properly!”
Molly sniffled and sat up, crying as she put on her nightgown properly this time, tying it into a knot so tight it seemed impossible to untie. Then she crawled under the covers, pulled them over her head, and curled up into a ball.
Hearing the muffled sobs from beneath the blanket, Chad finally opened his eyes.
Officer Chad Byrne, usually unflappable in the face of chaos, had not only lost his cool that night but also his composure.
He never imagined that such an incident with Molly would happen, that having seen all of her wasn’t enough, he even had kissed her.
For the first time, Chad didn’t know how to console the startled girl hiding under the covers.
Fortunately, a phone call saved him from further embarrassment.
“Hello, Mom.”
