Welcome to one of the corners in my fantasy world. This story is totally fictional. The only thing that is similar to reality is my age and that I live in Sweden.
I never describe any of the characters in detail in my stories. I believe one has to give room for the reader's own imagination and preferences. I hope that will add something to it.
I hope that my grammar and spelling isn't the worst ever. I welcome feedback that helps me to write better stories.
The story:
We live in a small county in sweden. A lovely place with fantastic views with a lot of small lakes, forests and a rich wildlife. An easy life most of the year. "We" are a small family of three. Me, a man in my early 40's. Long time carpenter with my own business. My beautiful wife, Jenny, is the same age. I would say she is some kind of workaholic but she would not agree. Her career takes up a lot of time during the winter, but she tries to compensate for that the rest of the year. The third member is Jenny's daughter, Linda, who just turned 21. She just moved back in with us to get an opportunity to start up her own small web based business. We love to help her out all we can. I've been in her life since she was 5, and we get along really well. She even calls me dad which makes me a little warm. It is a title you have to earn. Her real father passed away when she was only 4 years old. May he rest in peace.
The house we live in was built back in -43. We renovate it room by room to get the home we want to grow old in. The room Linda uses now has not been renovated yet, which was fine during summer and autumn. It's winter now and the cold weather penetrates the walls in her room. The radiator does a pretty good job to fight off the chills, but sometimes it just gives up and leaves me an hour of fixing and bleeding before it will heat anything again. Linda's patience and understanding for this inconvenience is amazing and I love her for that. My plan is to fix the heating issue permanently as soon as economically possible.
We are heading for mid January now and cold winds are sweeping in from the northeast. Temperature drops more every day. And as soon as the cold winds stop it starts to snow instead.
Jenny had to work more and more like every other January. She managed that like a champ but fell asleep like a puppy at night, so we didn't have much of a social or physical life. I was mentally okay with that as I knew it was temporary, but I missed the touch of her hands of course.
One night the wind was howling around the house more than usual so Jenny had trouble falling asleep. She complained about it as she really needed to get well rested for the upcoming day. I couldn't remember what would happen the next day, but I was always eager to help her get through these hectic periods.
"I could really use a sleeping pill now. I'm also starting to feel the stress build up over this lack of sleep."
"No, a pill won't help you. It would knock you out but you wouldn't feel rested tomorrow. I fix you something, Love"
"Thank you. You are the best to put out with me these days."
I left the warm bed and went to the kitchen. I made a nice warm cup of camomile tea for her. While it soaked for a few minutes I picked up a pair of new earplugs from my workwear jacket, checked the radiators in the hallway and made sure the front door was locked. I could tell that Linda already slept sound by her little snoring through the door crack. I returned to the bedroom and gave Jenny her tea and earplugs. The tea would probably do nothing itself for her sleep. It was more the little procedure of enjoying it that would do the trick. It would cut off the stressing thoughts about the need for sleep and let her relax. Plus the silence the earplugs offers. I went to my own side of the bed and slid off my boxers, because if one could sleep comfortably he should. After just 20 minutes I could hear her snoring just like her daughter, and that is kind of soothing. I soon drifted off too.
Next thing I woke up. It was dark and I could still hear the wind, but there was something else that had woken me up.
"Psst. Mom?"
It was Linda whispering in our bedroom. I must let Jenny sleep now so I answered in her place.
"She sleeps with earplugs. Is something wrong?" I whispered back.
"Oh. Well... I think my radiator is out again. I woke up and it was so cold in my room. I thought I could share covers with mom so you didn't have to fix it tonight.. I'm freezing."
"Ooh.. I see..."
What should I do now? If I got up and fixed the radiator Jenny might wake up from the noise and disturbance. And it would take a long time before it was warm enough to sleep again in Linda's room anyway. I decided to be human and made room between me and Jenny.
"Come on, you can sleep between us. You have a blanket or something?"
"Awesome. Yeah I have my blanket."
"Okej. Now be careful. Your mom needs her sleep tonight."
Linda carefully climbed up in the bed with the blanket wrapped around her like a cute burrito. It was a little bit crowded with three adults in the bed now so i figured she would get warm pretty soon. Linda let out a pleased humming sound. The poor girl really was frozen. I became very aware that I was naked under my cover so I made sure nothing would fall out by mistake. That would at least be awkward. I found my comfort again and slumbered away.
I woke up again. Not by a sound though. It was still very dark, and I could not have slept for too long. I found that Linda was backed up close against me. She was under my cover! Her head rested on my right arm and I could feel her slow breathing. My left arm was wrapped around her and she held that hand in hers. So far no crisis. But I was naked and the male body does what it does during sleep cycles. Yes. I had a healthy and striving boner poking up against Linda's now very warm and pleasantly rounded bottom. I wanted to disappear into thin air. She had probably just sought heat under my cover during the night, unknowingly that I was all naked. It was innocent. I should focus on sleep and avoid any thoughts or... I just felt her slightly shifting her body. Just a small tendency of a movement. The result was inescapable, my dick poked right up against her ass. The awareness of this affected my boner even more. "I'm so so sorry," I thought while clenching my eyes. I had to shift position or this would be unbearable. Slowly shifted my left arm slightly to loosen the embracement when suddenly I heard a quiet whisper.
"Are you awake?"
Shit! She can not have avoided noticing my dick now.
"Yeah, I just woke up. Sorry about... the.... I will lay on my back instead. Really sorry, I had...."
"No, don't."
"But. I kind of have to."
"No, don't. I understand. I know that about men. It's just a reflex. It's okay. Just hold me again, it was so nice and warm."
"....At least let me put some boxers on.
"Please be still. Warm. I'm okay with it."
This was not okay in many ways. But, fine. If I just could fall asleep again it would be.... She shifted again and rubbed her tushy against my boner. Immediate response in my dick.
"Please don't push against it. It will be unbearable for me pretty soon."
"Oh. Sorry. I try to be still."
Fine. Now sleep. Relax. Reee-laaax. Float into dreams about...
"Can I ask?"
"..Yes?
