Zed opened the linen closet door and stepped inside to look for a hand towel of the right size.

Deb's heart nearly stopped as he stepped in, mere inches from where she was concealed among the folded linens. Panicked, she quickly tried to shrink further back, accidentally knocking a pile of washcloths to the floor with a soft clatter.

As Zed reached down to pick up the fallen washcloths, Deb lunged forward and clamped a hand over his mouth, pressing herself against him.

-Shhh, quiet, it's me, Deb whispered urgently in his ear. Didn't want the others to hear and ruin the surprise, y'know?

Zed nibbled on Deb's hand as he nodded.

-You want to stay in here, Zed whispered to Deb. I understand.

Deb nibbled playfully on his ear.

-Mmm, such a good boy, so willing to follow orders, she praised him. First things first, stud, drop the pants.

Zed quickly undid his belt to pull his pants down for Deb.

Deb wasted no time sliding a hand down the front of his boxers, wrapping her hand around his hardening shaft. With her other hand, she pushed aside her panties.

Zed grabbed ahold of Deb's waist and pushed her into the closet wall.

Deb let out a surprised moan, quickly biting her lip to stifle the sound.

Zed pushed into Deb, letting her panties press on his shaft as he started to thrust rapidly. Gasping quietly, Deb wrapped her legs around his hips, pulling him closer as the rough friction sent jolts of pleasure through her body.

Zed put a hand over Deb's mouth, just like she had done to him earlier, as he hilted himself inside her and started to orgasm.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Betty was blissfully unaware of the clandestine activities happening mere feet away.

- Where'd Zed wander off to anyway? Still hunting down that elusive towel?

Just as Betty was about to respond, they heard a faint, muffled thump emanating from the direction of the linen closet. Both sisters exchanged a curious glance.

-Was that... coming from the linen closet? Betty asked softly.

Without waiting for a reply, she went to investigate.

Deb's eyes darted anxiously towards the door as she heard someone approach. She reached her hands down into her panties to rub Zed’s remnant into herself while he scrambled to pull his pants back up.

Zed pushed Deb into one of the alcoves and she tumbled backwards into a hamper, hastily tugging her skirt down.

Zed opened the door for Betty.

-Sorry, I got a little lost in there, he said, looking back into the closet.

-Lost? In the linen closet? Betty giggled uncertainly, craning her neck slightly to peer inside. Is everything alright, Zed? You look rather... flustered.

-Totally fine, Zed said with a smile. I got lost in my own thoughts, I guess.

Betty looked at him skeptically, but stepped aside to let him pass.

-Well, as long as you're alright.

-How's the pizza? Zed asked as he returned to the kitchen.

Hidden amongst the towels, Deb exhaled shakily, trying to calm her racing heartbeat and feeling a thrill at the narrow escape. She could feel Zed dripping down her thigh.

Upon returning to the kitchen, Betty leaned over to murmur to Alice.

-Hmm, something's off with Zed.

They studied Zed speculatively.

-You girls look beautiful, Zed said, gesturing at the girls in their new clothes. I left the towel in the closet. I'll save this for later, he said, looking at the stromboli. We'll have quite the appetite after the dance class.

Alice rolled her eyes at Zed's compliment.

-Ugh, spare us the cheesy lines, will ya? she scoffed. We had enough pizza. What exactly were you doing holed up in the linen closet for so long? she demanded point-blank, stepping closer to him. And don't give me that bullshit about being lost in thought.

-I wasn't in there so long, Zed said as he started to put the leftovers away. I used the bathroom too.

Betty frowned slightly.

-Wait a sec, if you went to the bathroom, why were you digging around in the linen closet for a towel afterwards? Doesn't add up, Betty pointed out.

-For the stromboli I ended up not wanting, Zed laughed as he put the box away. Or have time for, he added as he looked to his phone to see a text from Ednin. It sounds like she's outside waiting for us. Time to go girls.

Still concealed in the linen closet, Deb smirked to herself as she overheard the exchange, pleased that Zed managed to deflect suspicion. She replayed their heated encounter in her mind while rubbing his spend inside her.

Alice's eyes narrowed at Zed's explanation, clearly not buying it entirely, but deciding to let it slide for now.

-Hmph, well, whatever. Let's just get going then, shall we? Alice said.
