After killing Becky Matthews and Hoare remained in the family home - with Becky allegedly in the boot of their car.
Becky was alone in the family home while her step-mother Anjie attended a hospital appointment with her parents - Becky's grandparents.
The jury heard the teen sent her last text message at 11.03, and it is thought she was killed sometime between then, and 12.45 when Anjie returned home.
But Matthews and Hoare did not leave the family home until around 6pm, arriving at their home on Cotton Mill Lane at 6.40pm.
The pair then ordered a takeaway and browsed the internet for television programme listings.
A teenager was killed by her step-brother in a "violent struggle" before her body was cut up with a power saw and a knife, a court heard.
Becky Watts allegedly told a friend that Nathan Matthews, who is on trial for her murder, described how he would kill her in 2013.
