My name is Martin Brewer and I am a single father to a beautiful 18-year-old young woman named Deidre "Dedee" Brewer. My wife at the time and I were only married for three years before she decided to call it quits. She gave me full custody of our daughter who was only two years old at the time. Fortunately, I found a nanny who helped me raise Dedee full-time until she entered all-day grade school. My nanny then worked for me part-time until Dedee entered junior high school when she took another job as a live-in nanny. Kaylin was old enough that she didn't need the lovely woman watching over her any longer but as she was the only mother figure she had known for the last 11 years she was still heartbroken to see her go.
Shortly after my wife left us, a new family moved into the neighborhood. Their family name was Valentine, and they had a young daughter the same age as Dedee named Kaylin. From the moment the two girls met, their bond was formed and from that moment on they were as close as sisters and virtually inseparable. Shortly after the girls entered junior high Kaylin's parents divorced and her father moved out of state. As such I became Kaylin's defacto father figure.
Kaylin's mother seemed to entertain a large number of gentlemen callers. Word around the neighborhood was that she had started before the divorce (hence, the divorce). Kaylin began spending all her free time at our house with her mother going on many dates or having guys come over. As Kaylin was spending so much time at my house, not going home till she had to, I began feeding her. After sleeping over at our house three weekends in a row I had her bring some of her clothes to our home, and she moved into the guest room.
I should tell you about my live-in houseguest. Kaylin was an adorable girl who unfortunately was dealt a bad hand by her negligent mother. During the summer after their 7th-grade year, Kaylin practically moved in after her mother began taking extended vacations with her guy friends. She wrote me a letter permitting me to take her out of town with us when Dedee and I traveled. When it came time for the girls to get new clothes for school I was the one tasked with taking them shopping. Kaylin's mother gave her money but it was hardly enough so I covered the additional expenses. I suspect her mom did this on purpose but I didn't care, I had more than enough money. When the girls entered high school, they began participating in cheerleading. I thought that they would continue this in the winter but Dedee and Kaylin decided to join the girl's swim team.
About this time the girls began maturing almost as soon as they walked through high school doors. The girls quickly became popular, especially the young guys. As boyfriends came and went, more than once I had provided a shoulder for both girls to cry on when things went wrong in their lives. At the end of their freshman year, I earned a major promotion for all my hard work and countless hours for the company. With the raise in pay, my promotion garnered I knew I had to get something special for the girls. Given their love of swimming I knew the perfect gift to get my two favorite girls. The initial problem was that I wanted to surprise them and didn't know how I would accomplish this. Fate decided to play into my hands though.
Before finishing their freshman year, the girls came to me and asked if I would mind if they went away to cheer camp with their freshman teammates. The camp was three weeks long followed by a one-week trip to Florida to watch their school's varsity team participate in the National Cheer Competition. Money was no problem and doing the math would give my crew a month to get it done. They assured me that by running two work crews, they could easily accomplish the work in that time. I OK'd that and when the girls came to me for my final decision on their trip they were practically begging me for permission. I ho-hummed about it but allowed the girls to go.
One month later I picked the girls up at the airport. They were standing with their teammates and the varsity girls. Their school placed third this year, the best they have ever done. I congratulated the girls, all of which were real beauties. Pulling the cheer captain to the side, I informed her about the new Olympic-sized swimming pool at our home and told her to invite both teams over for a surprise pool party that evening. Explaining that the pool was brand new and Dedee and Kaylin didn't know of it, the girly was giddy with excitement at the prospect of a pool party. It was the perfect day for it as it was a warm beautiful day and I assured her that I would provide the food as I had planned to have the girls invite their teammates anyway.
The girls were hungry and asked to stop for something to eat but I told them I had a special surprise for them first. I blindfolded the pair and told them to be patient as this was a once-in-a-lifetime surprise. The girls tried to pry the secret from me but I just drove them around so they didn't know where we were going or what it might be. Eventually, we arrived at the house. I parked in the drive and told the girls to remove their blindfolds.
"You bought a fence?" Dedee asked in a rather sarcastic tone.
"Yes... but that is only part of the surprise. Let's go out back." We walked through the house and the girls wondered why I had the glass doors covered.
"Doesn't that defeat the purpose of having glass doors Dad?"
"Yes but not to keep the surprise a surprise," I tell her. "Now, hold out your hands and close your eyes so I can lead you outside."
The girls did as I asked and I carefully led them outside. "Ok, open your eyes," I tell them.
"This better be a good dad," Kaylin stated.
The girls opened their eyes and then squealed with absolute glee when their eyes landed on the large Olympic-sized swimming pool, diving board, and pool house. Of course, I would be using the pool but this was their gift. The only thing I had done for myself was to create a patio near the pool for my grilling area and to place several pool chairs. I had only bought three so far as there were only three of us who would be using it for the most part. Almost instantly I was tackled by the girls. They wrapped their arms around me and hugged me tightly.
"Ohhh... I wish we had known about this earlier. We could have invited the girls over for a pool party." Dedee stated.
"Yeah... they will be sooo jealous of us." Kaylin chimed in.
"Yeah... if only a sneaky dad could have mentioned this to the cheer captain and invited her and all of your teammates over for a celebratory pool party."
"You didn't?" The girls ask me in unison.
"I did. I arranged everything including ordering food to be delivered in an hour. Why don't you girls go have a small snack and then you can go get ready for your party."
The girls peppered my face with kisses and then raced into the house to grab a quick bite before running to their rooms to change. In less than two hours our home was overrun by about thirty scantly clad girls of various ages. Fortunately, the girls were smart and many brought their own chairs with them soon my backyard area was full of girls swimming, sunning, eating, and having a grand time.
Dedee and Kaylin's popularity increased tenfold that summer.

Now that the girls were both 18 years old, Dedee and Kaylin's bodies were fully mature. My beautiful daughter was 5 feet 7 inches tall. She had sparkling blue eyes and straight just below-the-shoulder black hair. She looks like her mother and they both remind me of a young Kate Beckinsale. They are the same height height but unlike the famous actress my daughter's breasts were a 34 C-cup. As beautiful as Dedee is, Kaylin was a curvaceous knockout. She was the same height as her "sister" but Kaylin's curves and appearance made her look like Sofia Vergara's stunt double. Kaylin has blue eyes like Dedee and long wavy blonde hair almost down to her lower back. Her boobs were as large and as full as the famous Columbian actress and she was the most sought after girl in their school.
Shortly after they were both 18 the girls asked me if it was ok if they could sunbathe topless. I told them that it was fine, just to leave a t-shirt hanging from the post by the back door so I didn't just walk outside while they were tanning naked. They readily agreed and I would give the girls their privacy. While I have to admit to being tempted to peek at them, I never deliberately spied on them when they told me they were going outside to tan. It was inevitable that occasionally I would walk into the pool area while they were lying in their loungers topless. I never made a big deal out of it, I would just apologize the few times it happened. After the first time it happened the girls never seemed to get embarrassed when this happened.
After graduating from high school, I sent the girls to Cancun with a gaggle of their closest friends as a graduation present. The girls returned very sun-tanned and then worked as lifeguards at the beach until the beginning of August. Unfortunately, the time finally came when the girls would be separated. While Kaylin helped Dedee pack I was passing by and overheard the girls talking. Kaylin asked Dedee if she was planning to have sex while she was away at school at the University of Southern Illinois. From Dedee's reaction, I could tell that she was still a virgin.
I knew that I couldn't protect my daughter's virtue forever, heck, I was quite surprised that she still had it by this point in her life. Fortunately, before my nanny's last day with us, she took the girls to the doctor's office and she put the girls on birth control. Not because they were having sex (or were planning to), but to help regulate their periods. I knew Dedee had a good head on her shoulder so I trusted her to make good choices while she was away.
It was a very teary-eyed day when Dedee climbed into her new SUV, a gift from her maternal grandparents, to drive to Illinois. As much as I was willing to pay for Kaylin to attend the school of her choice (and there were plenty), she decided that she didn't want to be a financial burden and decided to take a year off of school. As such, she took a job working at Victoria's Secret in the mall. Kaylin and I went out to dinner that night and she told me that she was going to be working the night shift as all of the college-aged girls were gone. I told her I understood and that she was welcome to stay at the house whenever she liked.
At some point in time before Dedee had departed Kaylin's mom had talked to her daughter and insisted that once her best friend was gone that she should start living at home as it wouldn't look proper for her to be at my house as often without Dedee present. Of course, I found it odd that Kaylin's mom was suddenly worried about appearances after parading guys through her house for the majority of Kaylin's life. I told Kaylin it was her life but I gave her a code to my door lock and assured her that she was welcome any time she wanted or needed to come over and that she was welcome to use the pool whenever she liked. She thanked me and said that she would stop by to say hello and use the pool from time to time.
As I probably wouldn't be seeing her around for a while I insisted on taking her out to dinner, lady's choice. She wanted to go to her favorite Italian restaurant for their version of the Tour of Italy. It had five different small servings of pasta and a nice side salad. We enjoyed our meal and after we left, I took her to the movies (again, her choice) before taking her back to her house. Pulling up, I noticed that the house looked very vacant. Before exiting we shared a big hug and a kiss on the cheek and then said good night. My house was eerily quiet for the first time in 15 years as Dedee was gone and I didn't see Kaylin for the rest of the month. During that time I didn't see Kaylin but I knew she was using the pool via my security system. As she was an adult I gave Kaylin her privacy but checked in on her from time to time to make sure she was ok and not floating face down in the pool.

Labor Day is one of my favorite federal holidays as my job gives everyone the day off and the weather is usually still very nice. Fortunately, today was a beautiful day, so I decided to grill my meals for the week. I set my grill up (I cook with charcoal) and once it was ready I went in and got the food. With the grill at the right temp, I set the ribs and beans which take the longest to cook, on the girl to begin smoking. I had just closed the lid to the grill when my doorbell rang. I made my way to the door to see who was there and to my surprise, there stood my surrogate daughter.
