INTRODUCTION & DISCLAIMER - When their parents divorced years earlier, fraternal twin brother and sister Ben and Sophie were separated as infants, Sophie remaining with their English father in London while their Australian mother took Ben home to Melbourne. Growing up Ben has long wanted to meet his twin sister in person, but this doesn't happen until the year 2001, when Ben and Sophie are 19-year-old university students and Sophie along with their father and stepmother travel to Melbourne for a six week holiday.
Unfortunately for Ben this seems to be a case of being careful of what you wish for, as unlike his father and stepmother his twin sister proves to be an insufferable snob with a superiority complex, who makes no effort to enjoy herself or even be polite. Worse still for Ben, the arrival of Sophie stirs up all these bizarre fetishes he never knew he had, and which he is unable to stop himself indulging with his pretty, posh sister by voyeurism.
But what of stuck-up Sophie herself? Is she really the cold, catty and bitchy ice princess she presents to her twin brother, or is she secretly as perverted as Ben? Read 'Stuck Up Sexy Sister Sophie' to find out.
Please note all characters and events are fictional, and also be aware of the strong content of this story, which includes incestuous voyeurism and fetish material involving the sister using the toilet and having her periods. Otherwise, enjoy your trip back to Melbourne Australia in the early 2000s and be sure to rate and comment.

Once upon a time a pretty young woman named Margaret from Melbourne like many other 20-something Australians decided to do the overseas thing and live and work in the UK for a few years. While in London, Margaret after several months met a handsome and charming young British man named Edward, who was from a wealthy and influential family. A whirlwind romance between the two led to an engagement and marriage, and just a week after returning to the UK from their honeymoon Margaret discovered the reason she was late was that she was expecting a baby.
As things turned out, Margaret wasn't carrying one baby but two -- a twin boy and girl -- who were named Ben and Sophie. With an immediate perfect nuclear family of mother, father, son and daughter they all lived happily ever after.
Except they didn't. As the son Ben, I can confirm things didn't go to the perfect fairytale script.
Mum and Dad weren't the first couple in the world who with the benefit of hindsight took things too fast and got married at a young age probably before they were ready. They weren't the first young parents to find things difficult with a new baby in the house, this multiplied by two given Sophie and I were twins. Double the screaming infants at night needing to be fed or changed, two babies throwing up or getting sick at once and teething simultaneously.
Twins could be a challenge even for older and more experienced parents, plus the later stages of Mum's pregnancy weren't easy on her. Throw in a bad case of post-natal depression, the feeling that her marriage was a mistake that was becoming overwhelming and home-sickness for Australia only one conclusion became inevitable. This was separation followed by divorce.
So what about the children? What to do with them? The eventual solution was unusual and could be considered highly controversial. It was however very similar to one employed by divorcing parents in a 1961 movie that propelled young British actress Hayley Mills to international stardom. And a remake of this movie in 1997 would launch another young actress to superstardom, this time Lindsay Lohan.
With Sophie and I still infants not a year old when our parents split it was figured we would have no memories of each other if separated, and so it proved. Baby Sophie remained with her father Edward in London, while Baby Ben went with his mother Margaret to a new life in Melbourne, many thousands of miles away. We would grow up apart, living different lives on different continents.
The reason why I went with Mum to Australia and my sister remained in England with Dad was not clear to me until I was about 11, and by chance overheard a conversation between Mum and Grandma one day. Mum's difficult pregnancy and subsequent PND was compounded by the fact that she struggled to bond with Sophie. More prone to early childhood conditions like colic and difficult to settle, Sophie would scream and cry until late at night, whereas I was apparently an easier baby to manage and we were able to bond properly. But from day one Mum struggled to bond with Sophie, things only got worse and it seemed this was feeling was mutual.
While difficult to ascertain just how much babies can think for themselves, Sophie seemed resistant and defiant to Mum's attempts to care for her and bond with her. She would refuse to feed, whether breastfeeding or Mum giving her a bottle, even though Sophie was clearly hungry and wanted milk. Yet my infant sister would happily accept a bottle from Dad, our paternal grandparents or an aunt or uncle, peacefully drinking it until she fell asleep, the sleeping and contented baby girl far removed from the screaming, sobbing, struggling infant who even tried to kick and bite when Mum attempted even the most basic childcare procedures with Sophie.
Little wonder then that I was the baby chosen to go with Mum back to Australia and that my sister stayed with Dad for a completely different life in the UK. Unlike the separated twins in the movies however, Sophie and I growing up were very much aware of each other and our other parent on the other side of the world. This was by means of sending letters along with photos, postcards along with occasional telephone calls. However phone calls were not that easy given the time differences between Melbourne and London, Australia's East Coast relatively close to the International Date Line many hours ahead of London's Greenwich Mean Time, especially during summer when Victoria's clocks went forward for daylight savings time.
It was odd how the 'twin thing' came into play with Sophie and I despite living completely separate lives, normally the amazing coincidences could be found with identical twins, but sometimes it did occur with fraternal twins too.
While Mum and Dad obviously thought they had met 'the one' when they first got married, soon after divorce and in separate countries they really did meet the right person. Mum met Gordon, an architect who had a young son Tim from a failed first marriage when he was younger. In London Dad met a lawyer named Elizabeth -- always called Liz - who had also recently divorced after a failed first marriage at a young age and also had a young child, a daughter named Charlotte.
The coincidences only continued when Mum married Gordon and Dad married Liz and both Mum and Liz became pregnant again -- both with a set of twins. Only this time not fraternal twins like Sophie and I, but identical twins. In Melbourne Mum gave birth to mine and Tim's identical younger half-brothers Chris and Andrew. Across the seas in London, my stepmother Liz gave birth to mine and Sophie's identical twin sisters Emily and Jane.
As in Australia Mum probably wondered how with her first husband she had released two eggs when she conceived Sophie and I, and now with her second husband one of her eggs had split resulting in identical twin boys. Likewise in England, Dad no doubt wondered about how he had fathered fraternal twins with his first wife, and now with his second wife identical twin girls. Whatever the case, there wasn't the same problems with raising twins as before. Mum handled my younger brothers with aplomb during their infancy, while in England my younger half-sisters seemed to be largely problem-free babies.
The result of this was that Sophie and I grew up thousands of miles apart in families that were the inverse of each other. I grew up with an older stepbrother and younger identical twin half-brothers, while in London Sophie grew in a house with an older stepsister and identical twin half-sisters, a house that definitely sounded like it was from Regency times or a novel by Jane Austen or the Bronte sisters given it was home to parents Edward and Elizabeth and daughters Charlotte, Sophie, Emily and Jane.
Certainly, the X-Chromosome seemed dominant in England and the Y-Chromosome in Australia. In the British side of my family there were mostly girls among the cousins whereas in Australia my cousins were mainly boys, girls were quite rare. And this was also true of my stepmother Liz and stepfather Gordon's families -- mostly girls among Liz's relatives, and boys among Gordon's.
It was certainly an unusual way to grow up, and at times other kids or even teachers wouldn't believe me when I told them I had a twin sister, a stepsister and two half-sisters living in London, thinking that I had only brothers. I certainly wanted to meet my father, stepmother and sisters especially my twin Sophie given she was obviously my only full sibling and indeed such a meeting was mooted on more than one occasion, but this proved easier said than done.
Firstly there was the sheer distance between Australia and England and the different school holidays for Sophie and I growing up. When Sophie was on summer holidays from school this was in the middle of the Australian winter where for the most part I was at school, this inversed for our own summer holidays which took place when England was in the depths of winter and Sophie at school.
It would have been so much easier of course if my family lived in Australia in another state or territory. If Dad, his second wife and daughters had lived in Sydney, Canberra or Adelaide it would just be a matter of a short plane trip or a scenic train ride to New South Wales, the ACT or South Australia to spend time with each other, and they could just as easily visit Melbourne. Across the Bass Strait in Tasmania we could catch the ferry across to the island state, or fly to Hobart. We could all travel to Queensland and have a holiday together in Brisbane and the Gold Coast; or to the tropical Northern Territory to see Darwin. Even Perth was only a plane ride of 4 hours or so from Melbourne, so if this part of my family lived in Western Australia we would be able to see each other at least annually.
