S.L The Adopted “Twin”

Author’s Note: This is a standalone , that will feature embarrassment and fauxcest.

This is part of the ‘Sapphire Lane’ universe.

The

Alix was dropped off outside a large detached house in the suburbs, which from the taxi window had looked like a wealthy area. She was an orphan, and having turned eighteen recently, had been dreading the time she’d have to leave the orphanage and make it in life all by herself without support, besides whatever job her support worker, Miss Larson, could organise for her.

She was a slender attractive blonde with sleek wavy long hair, and everyone had always been surprised she hadn’t ever been chosen for adoption, with several couples having been initially interested in her though not following through due to her quite willful personality often causing conflict.

So she had been surprised when Miss Larson had told her that she had found an adoptive family for her in the nick of time. She didn’t know much about them besides it was a single mom and a daughter who was the same age as her, and she did wonder why such a family would choose to adopt an eighteen year old, but it certainly suited her!

As she walked up the drive, Alix felt she could add ‘wealthy’ to what she knew about the family, as the house looked lovely and comfortably large, and she was sure it would be furnished far nicer than the orphanage she had grown up in. One other thing that Miss Larson had told her was that some other orphans who had also recently turned eighteen had also been adopted by families in the neighbourhood, both being in a nearby road called Sapphire Lane. These were a meekly quiet girl called Cassidy and a withdrawn unsocial blonde called Colina, both of which Alix hadn’t been particularly close with, but they were on friendly enough terms, and she supposed it was nice there was some familiar faces she might bump into. It did seem that their support worker had saved them all from being thrown into the world on their own, so however Miss Larson had achieved it, she was grateful!

The blonde knocked on the door, viewing this as being her last chance at getting a family so resolved to keep her wilful attitude in check and instead behave however her new mother wanted her to. The door was soon answered by a woman in her midforties, who was blonde with a slender face and trim body, though quite an eyedrawing bust.

“You definitely must be Alix, welcome!”

“Hi, yes that’s me…” The blonde teen smiled a little awkwardly, not quite sure what to say.

“I’m Cherie Devonport, but you’ll of course call me mom.” The woman introduced herself, and stepped back to allow the teen to enter the house. Alix entered, lugging behind her suitcase which Cherie told her to just leave in the hallway.

“Thanks mom.” Alix said, finding it was strange to be calling someone, especially a stranger she had now said a total of six words to, by that word after her life of not having parents.

“Good girl, you’re a quick learner!” Cherie grinned, and Alix laughed to humour the blonde, though did find it a little embarrassing to be called a ‘good girl’… even if it was also kinda exciting to be referred to as such by a MILF. She knew it was inappropriate, but she couldn’t help thinking the woman was hot, and being a , found herself attracted to her though knew she’d have to get over this crush as in the context of their relationship, it would be pretty weird!

“Let’s find your sister, I think she’s in the lounge as she was waiting for you to arrive just as excitedly as I was.” Cherie said, and Alix followed the woman into the living room which was a spacious place with comfortable furniture, a large television, bookcases, and a piano. Though she had only seen this and the hallway, Alix knew she hadn’t been incorrect about the house being nice, and certainly felt lucky in that regard.

On the sofa was sat a eighteen year old girl, who got up with a welcoming smile to greet her. She was slender and blonde with hair in pigtails, and was dressed in a cute blue plaid dress with pleated skirt and puffed shoulders, and a square neckline so it modestly hide the cleavage of her small perky breasts. On her feet she wore long white socks.

“Hi Alix, I’m Lexi!”

Alix said hello to the girl, thinking she was cute and like Cherie, realising she would have to suppress a taboo crush. However Alix, who was dressed in a tee and denim booty shorts, did find the outfit the girl was dressed in kinda girlish, thinking that despite being the same age, people couldn’t be blamed for thinking that Lexi was younger than her if comparing their outfits and hairstyles. If Lexi had red high heels, the girl could be mistaken for being dressed like a certain farm girl who went over the rainbow…

“Stand side by side, I want to get a good look at you girls together.” Cherie said, and Alix found herself standing next to her new sister, who was around the same height as her, being ever so slightly shorter.

“Perfect, you definitely look like twins!” The woman beamed, and Alix saw the woman did have a point as the other girl’s body was similar to her’s, as well as some of their facial features. They would never be mixed up, but Alix was sure they could probably quite easily pass as biological siblings rather than just adoptive sisters.

“Lexi, go fetch us some lemonade, and then we’ll all get to know one another… I think we’ll go sit in the garden.”

The daughter headed to the kitchen, and Alix noted how dutifully she responded to the woman’s command. Not that it would have been a reasonable response to argue, however the girl thought she could detect a certain obedience in her new sister, so decided she would do well to imitate this, wanting to ensure she made a good impression on the family, after all, if things didn’t work out, she wouldn’t have the orphanage to return to…

The garden behind the house was large, with a big lawn, flowerbeds, a summer house, and a swimming pool with a barbecue area, which excited the blonde as she hadn’t been expecting to be living somewhere with her own pool!

They sat on some chairs on the patio, and Cherie and Alix began chatting, with the teen wanting to understand her new mom. “So why did you want to adopt? Of course I’m not complaining as it has worked out for me, but seems a little unusual seeing you already have a daughter…”

“I’ve always dreamed of having twins, but of course you can’t choose… however always thought it was a shame that Lexi didn’t have a twin sister until one day realised that adoption was an option. Of course, it was hard to find a suitable match, especially as she was a teenager and I was giving up hope now she turned eighteen…, until I came into contact with Grace, your Miss Larson, who showed me the photos of all the girls at your orphanage who had turned eighteen so desperately needed a family, and couldn’t believe it when I saw a picture of you! At first sight I knew you’d be perfect!”

Alix thought this desire for twins was a little strange, however didn’t begrudge the woman her eccentric dream, and was kinda pleased that she had helped turn it into a reality. In truth, as well as parents, she had also always wanted a sister, thinking it would be nice to have a girl who you were close to through a bond beyond friendship so now having a ‘twin’ did appeal to her.

The other teen returned with the drinks, and Alix tasted the homemade lemonade which was a delicious mix of sweetness and sharpness, and thought about all the little things she had missed out on in an orphanage which though had always tried to give the girls the best they could afford, could never have replicated family life and things like home cooking…

They chatted, with Alix deciding her impression of Lexi being quite subservient to her mom was probably correct, as the blonde was cheerful and involved in the conversation but always deferred to the older woman. The high school that Alix would be joining came up, and she learnt it was a private allgirls school called Ginerva Academy which Lexi told her a bit about, as well as some light gossip about some of the other senior students… though the adopted girl hoped there was some juicer stories which the other teen just didn’t want to tell in front of their mom.

“Let’s go give Alix a tour of her new home!” Cherie said after they had finished their drinks, and Alix followed them back into the house where she was showed around the ground floor which included, in addition to the lounge, a kitchen with a small pantry, a dining room, and a room for laundry. They then went upstairs where the main bathroom was, though Cherie said her room had an en suite so it would be mainly used by the teens.

“This will be your room.” The adoptive mom said, and opened a door which Alix entered to surprisingly find a bedroom that, though neat and tidy, looked like it was lived in.

“I’ve cleared space in the wardrobe and drawers for you… but feel free to make yourself at home however you want.” Lexi said.

“Oh, are we sharing?” Alix asked, surprised as besides the master bedroom where Cherie slept, there were two other bedrooms.

“Yes, we have four bedrooms however one is turned into a study, and another is kept for guests but even if we had more, I think twin sisters should share! Don’t you think it’ll be fun, like a slumber party every night… not that I want you two staying up late chatting!”

“Yeah sure, it’ll be fun.” Alix said, a little unsure but deciding to agree. She had slept in a dorm in the orphanage so had never had a bedroom to herself, however in such a large house had expected to perhaps have her own space… She also couldn’t help noticing that rather than twin single beds, the room just had a double bed so guessed she’d be sharing that with her new sister however the girl was cute after all, so she supposed it wouldn’t be too bad.

“Great! Oh, there is a present for you on the bed.” Cherie said. Alix had noticed the wrapped box, and assumed it was something for her, but had thought it rude to bring it up herself.

“Aww, thanks.” The teen smiled, and picked up the present, wondering what it could be as she unwrapped it. She opened the box, and her eyes widened and mouth gawped in disbelief before she could control her expression again, hoping her adoptive mom hadn’t noticed.

Instead the box was a neatly folded dress which the girl didn’t need to take out to know was a matching outfit to what Lexi was currently wearing.

“Um… this is so pretty!” Alix said, trying to sound sincere, as she had to remind herself to just go along with whatever made her new mom happy so not to jeopardise her chance at a family and home. She pulled out the dress, and sure enough it matched Lexi’s blue plaid dress exactly.

“Go and put it on then you’ll be matching!” Cherie said excitedly, and Alix blushed, glad she hadn’t spoken more as she was actually about to joke that she’d need to be careful not to wear it the same day as Lexi wore her’s… however it seemed the woman actually wanted them to dress in matching clothes.

“I still buy all of Lexi’s clothes… I know some eighteen year olds like to do their own shopping but I think it’s nice for a girl’s mother to pick for her so she doesn’t end up growing up too fast! From now on, I’ll make sure to buy two of everything then one day you should be able to twin your outfits every day! After all, I think that’s part of the fun of having a twin sister!”

Alix didn’t like the sound of this at all, as though she had never had much money from the orphanage to buy clothes, and often had to wear donated second hand clothing, she at least usually got to pick things for herself however she just smiled and nodded. Wearing matching outfits with Lexi, especially if they were all as cutesy as the blue plaid dress, was embarrassing but she was sure she could endure the indignity to humour her new mom… sure the woman was just excited at her dream of twins coming true and that she’ll eventually realise dressing them in matching outfits was silly.

“Great, I’ll go get changed then!” Alix said, and took the dress alongside the long white socks and underwear (which she felt that even accepting the matching outfits, was taking the twinning a little far) that was also in the box to the bathroom. As she passed, Lexi gave her a smile that looked a little embarrassed and apologetic, and she was glad the other teen was also seemingly aware that this was a little weird… and guessed they would just have to share the embarrassment together.

In the bathroom, the girl undressed and put her clothes in the wash basket, then pulled on the underwear which she was surprised to see was in her measurements, guessing Miss Larson must of told Cherie her size. The bra and panties were white cotton so at least comfortable, though it was a little weird to know that presumably she was wearing matching underwear with the other girl.

Alix then pulled on the dress and the socks, pulling them up to her knees. She looked at herself in the bathroom mirror, blushing a little as the outfit was very cutesy and definitely not something she would normally have picked herself… and though she might be able to wear it out by herself with minimum embarrassment, matching with another teen would be more than a little mortifying.

‘Oh well… if it makes mom happy.’ The blonde sighed, and found it strange to think of the blonde woman as now being her mother. In past failed adoption attempts, any effort to make her wear clothes she didn’t like had always resulted in protests, but now eighteen, Alix was mature enough to hide her feelings. She returned to her new family, with the older woman eagerly awaiting her, and beaming when she saw her adopted daughter in the dress.

“Oh you look amazing, let’s go into the garden and we can take some nice photos with your twin!” Cherie said, and the teens followed her outside with Alix finding herself stood beside Lexi as the woman took several pictures, getting them to pose. Some of these positions were kinda intimate including one where they stood with their bodies facing one another, hands on each other’s waist, as they looked sideways to the camera. Another had Lexi turn her back on her new sister, nestling into her like a ‘little spoon’ while Alix was directed to wrap her arms around the teen to cuddle her.

Alix blushed a little at having to pose like this with the girl she had only just met who she could sense was just as embarrassed as her but they both smiled for mom, not wanting to look ashamed or sulky though the woman mentioned she would be sure to get a print made to go on the wall…

‘At least with my hair down rather than in girlish pigtails, I look like the ‘older’ twin…’ The blonde though wryly to herself.

Despite this awkwardness, the adopted girl couldn’t help thinking that her new sister’s slim body felt good in her hands but she tried to shrug off this attraction to the cute blonde, as even though they weren’t biologically related nor had she grown up with the other teen, they still were now sisters.

“Now you’ve seen the house, let’s show you round the neighbourhood.” Cherie suggested, which Alix normally would have been excited about if not for the outfit.

“Um… I don’t mind waiting until tomorrow if easier… know I’ve taken up quite a bit of time today already…”

“Nonsense, I’ve kept the whole weekend free to spend with you and so has your twin sister!” Cherie laughed, mistaking the girl’s reluctant hesitation for demureness which she found cute.

At this, the trio left the house with Alix being presented with a pair of black Mary Jane shoes which of course exactly matched the pair Lexi had.

“Come on girls, hold hands!” Cherie urged them, and Lexi blushed but extended her hand obediently, and Alix, not wanting to make a fuss but finding this weird, accepted. “So cute, I think you both should always hold hands when together… as twin sisters should be very close.”

“I guess its good bonding…” Alix said to be agreeable, and they continued walking with Cherie leading the way, and the two blonde teens following hand in hand. The adopted girl felt silly, walking along in matching outfits and holding hands at eighteen years old, though swallowed her pride even if each time they walked past another pedestrian, or a car drove by, she felt a surge of embarrassment.

They walked down to a rank of shops that included a small grocery store, a bagel place, and an ice cream parlour called Lazy Sundaes which Lexi told her was where a lot of the high school seniors hung out. Having a meeting place to hang out and eat dessert sounded fun to the teen, and she looked forward to having a more outgoing social life than what the orphanage had offered her… hopefully without having to have her new sister clutching her hand all the while.

They continued the stroll and passed a road called Sapphire Lane which Lexi mentioned was where quite a lot of the other senior girls happened to live. Walking down the road were a couple of teenage girls, and Alix felt the now familiar twinge of embarrassment from being seen in twin roleplay with Lexi, spiking more as the teens were their age however it surged even stronger when it became apparent the girls knew the family and stopped to speak.

One was a petite tanned Brazilian girl, and the other a pretty brunette with fairskin and Italian heritage. They were holding hands which perhaps lessened Alix’s shame of doing the same thing, though guessed the pair were girlfriends or best friends, rather than sisters like her and Lexi.

“Hello Miss Devonport.” The Brazilian girl said politely then turned to the blonde teens. “Hi Lexi, who’s this?”

“Hi.” Lexi smiled back, blushing a little which Alix sympathised as it was probably even more embarrassing for her sister who actually knew the girls… though she couldn’t help thinking it made the teen look even prettier. “This is Alix, my new sister who has joined the family…”

“Twin sister!” Cherie added eagerly. “Don’t they look just perfect together! I’ve always wanted to have twins so glad to have finally found Lexi a sister to adopt! Aren’t they almost identical…”

“Yes! Even the shoes and socks!” The petite girl agreed with a laugh.

“Your dresses are pretty.” The Italian girl added, seeming that she was trying to be friendly rather than mocking.

“Thanks…” Alix said, wanting to be friendly but not too enthusiastic as she didn’t want the girls to think that it was her and Lexi’s decision to wear matching outfits and hold hands.

“This is Tina and Natasha… they go to Ginerva Academy too.” Lexi introduced the girls.

“Nice to meet you Alix.” Tina, who was the Brazilian girl, grinned then turned to Cherie. “You’re lucky to have such cute twins! Though I think I win the spot the difference as Alix doesn’t have her hair in pigtails!”

“True.” Cherie chuckled, and they said goodbye to the girls, who seemed to be heading to the rank of shops they had just left.

“They’ve been dating for years… its lucky Natasha is such a hand holder otherwise Tina would probably have poked fun at us for it.” Lexi told Alix as they resumed their walk.

“Oh? Is she… mean?” Alix asked, initially going to say ‘a bitch’ but guessed she shouldn’t swear in front of her new mom.

“No, not really, she just likes to take the mickey. Natasha is very nice though.”

“She wasn’t taking the mickey Lexi, she was being nice!” Cherie said then spoke to Alix. “Don’t worry, Lexi is just a bit shy but sure with you to hold her hand she’ll become more confident!”

Alix smiled and nodded, though agreed with her sister that the Brazilian girl had likely been teasing them, and who could blame her as they did look silly!

“Does Ginerva Academy have a school uniform?” Alix asked and was relieved when Lexi confirmed it did. This was because she wouldn’t have been surprised if her new mom would have sent them to high school in matching outfits which she was glad to hear wouldn’t happen if they had a uniform… well they technically would be matching but not in a way that stood out.
