My wife Sarah had died ten years before, and my stepdaughter Sandy had to go stay with her biological father after he sent for her. Sandy and I stayed in contact, writing, or calling one another. We told each other of how our lives were and it helped us both to deal with Sarah dying.
She was ten years old when her mother died, now she is twenty, and said that I was more of a dad and best friend to her then her father ever was. She said it was time for her to leave his house, and asked if she could come out to visit me. I was delighted for the chance to get to know her again, and told her that I would love it.
Several weeks later I heard a knock at the door, I quickly answered it still expecting a ten year old, what I got instead was a full-grown woman identical to her mother. Sandy was five foot-two inches tall and about one-hundred pounds soaking wet. Her breasts were pert and small and her body was beautiful and could have been Sarah's twin. She jumped and hugged me around the neck. Just the feel of her in my arms, was like holding her mother again, she even smelled the same. We broke our hug and she let her feet hit the floor as I invited her in. I let her lead the way, she was more lithe but muscular. She filled her jeans out greater than I ever could have imagined. We went into the living room and talked for hours catching up on everything. She had graduated high school, then business management in college. Sandy said she would like to transfer to a college here if that was okay with me. I told her there was no problem.
We wallowed away the hours but soon she said she should get going and find a hotel room. I told her I would not have any of that, pointing out the fact that I was alone in a four-bedroom house. She said she did not want to be a bother to me and I told her she was not. She finally agreed and we went down to her car and got her bags, we had her settled in no time. We said goodnight, I went to my room and got in the shower. Sandy's room had a shower also and while I was finishing up, I could hear her shower running. I pictured the water spraying over her naked body. I kept trying to suppress the thoughts of Sandy, after all this was my stepdaughter.
I fell asleep fast and had great dreams of Sarah. Somewhere in the dream, I suddenly realized it was not Sarah anymore and that it had become Sandy. This woke me up and I sat upright in bed in my darkened room. I was wishing Sarah was there, and eventually wishing Sandy would come in. I knew in my heart I could not do that, this was my stepdaughter. I sat there for a while, then I heard the floor in the hallway give a tell-tale squeak of someone walking down the hall. I took it as my imagination and laid back down.
Sleep didn't come so easily then and before I knew it the sun had come up. I got into a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt and went downstairs to the kitchen to make some coffee. I figured I would have enough time to get a pot going and make it back to my room to get out of my sweats before Sandy woke up and the sweats would show more than I wanted to. When I entered the kitchen, there was a pot of coffee already made and a cup sitting in front of the pot, just as Sarah used to do for me. I froze in place, turned around ready to head back upstairs and change, when I walked right into Sandy.
She was dressed in a nightshirt that I put in a box a long time ago after Sarah died. Sandy threw her arms around my neck and kissed me. With her holding me tight, I felt myself stirring, and getting hard right in front of her. I gently pushed her back and she dropped her arms from around my neck. I apologized and that I had to change. I brushed by her heading back upstairs. Thankfully, the swelling I felt had gone away by the time I was dressed. I hoped that the jeans and baggy t-shirt I had on would hide my predicament.
Once back in the kitchen I sat down in the chair across from Sandy who was still dressed in the nightshirt revealing me a glimpse of her cleavage. Her breast may have been smaller but they were still just as beautiful. I thought to myself that I had to stop thinking this way. This was Sarah's daughter.
We talked for a while and then she got quiet. I asked if she was alright. Sandy told me that she heard me calling out her mom's name last night while I was sleeping. I apologized for waking her and she told me she didn't really get much sleep because she had something on her mind. I asked her what and she told me it was nothing. Then she said after I called her mom's name that I had called out hers a couple times. This made me freeze and turn red from embarrassment. Sandy said it was okay and not to be embarrassed at all.
She asked me how long I had been without a girlfriend and I told her I hadn't seen anyone since Sarah died. Sandy looked like she was about to cry and she apologized. I told her it was my choice because I loved her mother so much and missed her terribly. She asked me if her being there is what gave me the dreams that made me call out for Sarah. I said no, that I had those dreams all the time. It was my time with her mother. Sandy stood and came around the table to stand next to me, she bent down and hugged me and kissed the side of my neck snuggling her head into my shoulder. I felt tears welling up and the feel of Sandy holding me had its effect but I was grateful for her hug.
Then Sandy surprised me by saying she enjoyed it here with me and just being with me had made her happier then she had been in such a long time. I told her that she was more than welcome to stay as long as she wanted to. Then she asked me if that was an invite to move in as well. I thought about it for a while then asked her if she wanted to. She didn't have to even think before she said yes. I said that she would make me happy if she lived here. She was ecstatic and kissed me on the lips. I hadn't expected that either.
Sandy called her father and told him that she would move in here and to pack the rest of her things and send them to her. After she hung up the phone we went upstairs, I asked her which room she wanted and she said the one she stayed in last night would be fine. We moved some of my things out. Sandy found a couple boxes of her mother's and said they could stay in the room if it was okay. I told her I did not have a problem with that. I was helping her unpack more of her bags, when I reached a small purse that was about ten inches long and six inches deep Sandy grabbed it from my hands, told me that was feminine stuff, and stuffed it into a drawer.
Once we had her unpacked, we went down stairs to get something to eat. She sat next to me while we ate and after a bit more talking she asked if I would like to know what kept her up last night. I told her only if she wanted to tell me. Sandy said that she wasn't sure how she would feel, about being here. I asked her if anything had changed and how she felt now. She told me that she couldn't be happier. I told her I was happy she was here too and that she made me feel closer to her mother. Sandy smiled and scooted her chair closer to mine. As we sat drinking coffee, every so often our legs would touch, I wasn't sure if it was on purpose but just the touching made me feel good.
It was nice having Sandy around the house. She was like her mother in so many ways, she kept the house work done and would make me dinner, I would make her breakfast and several times we went out for lunch. A friend that knew Sarah did a double take when we met her and her husband for lunch. They could not get over how much Sandy was like Sarah. Many nights I went to bed with ten years pent up, but with Sandy's room right next to mine, and our schedules gave me no chance to relieve myself. My balls were more than just a little sore.
