*^*^*^*^*
Hayley always loved my lap. I suppose that's how it all began.
I married her mother, Janet, almost 13 years ago. It was a whirlwind of love and lust and happiness, and I'd never been more content with my life. Janet drew me out of my introvert shell, and dragged me to parties and museums and even dance classes, and I loved every minute of it. And the sex was absolutely incredible. Janet was adventurous and we tried anything and everything that sounded fun and hot.
Hayley was 8 when I married Janet, and we got along from the start. Hayley's father left when she was young, and Janet resented him with an abiding passion. Janet used to use his name to describe particularly bad messes and stains: "That's a real Dennis there, let me get the bleach." Hayley and I were always comfortable with each other, and unlike most children from similar circumstances she somehow didn't carry the weight of her loss around like baggage.
Almost two years ago we lost Janet to lung cancer. She wasn't even a smoker, though Dennis had been. It all happened suddenly, and Janet went from this vital, energetic person who filled the room with vibrance and warmth to being a memory in the space of months.
Predictably, I lost my will to socialize and went back to my introversion with a vengeance. Only my family and my small circle of close friends were even tolerable to me in that state, and they all tried without real success to get me to engage in activities. It took a year for me to even feel all right going to a movie theater. It was a long, slow, painful crawl back to liking being around most other people, and honestly I'm not entirely there yet.
Hayley was the exception. Her smile lit up my life, and I did everything I could to give her reasons to smile.
When she was little, she'd climb in my lap on movie nights and I'd wrap one arm around her and the other around Janet, who'd lean in and make it a big shared hug. When Hayley became a teen and got bigger, she'd often lie down across Janet and me in the evenings, with her head in one lap and her feet curled up in the other. On rough days when she needed some comfort, one of us would often rub her scalp gently and the other would rub her feet.
Then when Hayley had been put to bed and Janet and I had the couch to ourselves, Janet would often lie stretched out with her head in my lap as we'd talk or watch TV.
Janet absolutely loved playing with my cock. More than anything, she loved edging me with her mouth and hands until I was painfully hard, precum leaking liberally as she kissed and sucked and licked and stroked me. Every kind of sex we had was fantastic, and I'd fill one or more of her hungry holes at least once a day, but coming in her mouth was a religious experience.
One night nearly three years ago when Hayley was 18, and in the throes of her first real relationship with a boy named Mark whom I never trusted, she came back downstairs for a drink of water about an hour after she'd gone to bed. She'd always been able to move silently when she wanted to, and her bare feet made no sound at all, so it wasn't until her soft gasp that I knew she was there.
Janet was lying with her head in my lap, and was busy running her tongue around the ridge of my cockhead, making little wet noises, as I was leaning back with my eyes closed enjoying every second of it. My eyes opened and met Hayley's and I had a moment of utter confusion and terror as she stood there in the kitchen doorway with her eyes wide then darted off. For once, her footfalls were audible.
Janet thought it was funny, but I was mortified. We had a long talk about it the next day, the three of us, and Hayley assured us that it was ok and she was happy we loved each other. As it happens she'd recently been getting some pressure from Mark to progress their relationship to a more physical level, as I expected and feared. They'd been fooling around and she'd touched his penis and kissed the tip. He wanted more but she was uncertain how to proceed, and this led to a discussion about boundaries and healthy relationships and enthusiastic consent and how No Means No. From there it progressed to matters of technique, and I quickly bowed out, leaving Janet to talk about what boys like. I couldn't help being uncomfortable with my wife telling my stepdaughter about sucking dicks, especially given the night before. Janet and Hayley both grinned at me as I fled.
Happily nothing changed between Hayley and me, though I worried she'd understandably feel weird and uncomfortable putting her head in my lap again. She didn't, and she carried on as before, each night putting her feet or head where she'd seen her mother giving me pleasure. I got over it and life returned to normal. There was nothing sexual about it after all.
When Janet died, Hayley had just started college. Her campus was just a short drive away, and we'd all agreed it made sense for Hayley to keep living at home. I'm glad we did, because after losing Janet I was an absolute wreck, and Hayley's company kept me from falling apart entirely. I had someone to care for, and someone who cared for me, and just having someone hug me reminded me how to be human. I suppose I was as touch-starved as I was heartbroken, and Hayley helped on both levels.
This summer was a hot one, hotter than any I remembered. Hayley was working in the day in a customer service role where she talked people through technical issues over the phone, and spending her evenings as a caregiver for the elderly, something she'd done for years. She enjoyed both jobs, but I missed her and looked forward to the weekends, when we'd lounge around our backyard pool and sit under the huge umbrellas we set up, reading and talking and relaxing.
Hayley started dressing more provocatively recently, though as far as I knew she only did so at home. She said she shouldn't be uncomfortable about her body, which was a fair point. I couldn't help noticing how beautiful she'd become though, and I couldn't help looking. And despite my every intention, I couldn't help finding her body appealing and attractive.
