"Cousins" by Day Dreamer (reposted by Cmdr Jameson). Guest review by The Bear.

This is a long story (over 120K) about a tender romance between a very shy boy and a very shy girl who happen to be best friends. The plot is simple and fairly predictable after you get past the first five or six paragraphs, but the characters are well-realized, the narrative well-written, and the sex (when it comes ) hot and erotic.

Two factors may cause squickage for some folks, so I'd better mention them. First, these two young lovers are only fifteen years old. Second, besides being best friends they are also first cousins (hence the title). The story doesn't dwell on either fact, however; so if you prefer to imagine the lovers as non-related friends of age seventeen or eighteen, there is not much in the story that will jump up and remind you of their actual age and the incestuous relationship.

It is a good story and I recommend it highly.
