Charlotte’s Dildo

As I did every night before I went to bed, I went to check on my children, to make sure they were asleep and tucked in for the night. My twin sons were spread out on their bunk beds, arms and legs bent and angled in every which way, blankets a jumble under them, normal sleep mode for both. I peeked in on Charlotte, my firstborn. Charlotte was well into puberty, a maniacal nutcase one moment, then the sweetest little daddy’s girl the next. My wife was tolerant of her most of the time but once in a while I heard from the girl’s frustrated mother, “You deal with her, I’m done!” I had a much less eruptive relationship with my daughter, we were bonded close ever since she could toddle from her mom to me. Charlotte was developing into a pretty teen girl, and the more she changed, the more aware I became of the nasty, pimple-faced, drooling little bastards hanging around her, and, as time passed, I noticed she was becoming less repulsed by the opposite sex.

I opened the door wide enough to let the hall light shine on Charlotte and got the shock of my life. She was lying nude on top of the covers, a small dildo clutched in her left hand. The girl was asleep so didn’t see or hear my reaction. I stared, stunned for a few seconds, then backed into the hall and closed the door, my mind was blank, I wasn’t thinking, I was only fixed on the image of my daughter lying naked on the bed with a sex toy in her fist. After a few moments of calming quiet, I cautiously opened the door again to see if my imagination was playing tricks on me. Nope, there she was, in all her glory, holding a dildo. I started breathing again then began to look at her. My daughter was about 5’3, but my wife and I agreed she was still growing. She weighed maybe 100 pounds and up till that moment, I wasn’t too concerned about how the weight was distributed. I looked her up and down, my eyes taking in the soft, perfectly round mounds of her breasts, the coat-button sized areolas with smallish nipples. She tapered from shoulders to a waist that couldn’t have been more than 24 inches around, then her hips flared wide to the top of her thighs. Her stomach was youthful flat to the slight mound of her pelvis, the top of her pussy slit was visible through a thin cover of curly light brown hair. Her slender thighs were angled apart so I could see her vagina from top to ass, the folds of her pussy looked rounded, full, mature. The inner lips, the labia, were peeking from the slit of her cunt. Except for a constellation of four small birthmarks under her left breast, her body, her skin, was flawless and smooth. I moved my eyes to the dildo, it was maybe five inches long and shaped like a genuine erection, it even had a set of balls. The tan toy didn’t look like a vibrator, just a hand-operated fake prick. I stood rooted in the doorway staring at the scene on the bed, knowing I should leave, but unable to make my feet move. I finally regained my senses, moved away, and closed the door again. As I went to my room only one thought occupied my mind; my daughter had grown up in the time it took me to open, then close her door.

I thought about telling my wife what I had seen but quickly tucked that thought away. I’m pretty sure she would try to confront her daughter just then; I didn’t think that waking Charlotte and raising a ruckus about a sex toy at 10:30 on a school night was the best idea. After reassuring my wife the kids were all safe and snuggled in their beds, she dozed off, but I lay on my back, unable to sleep. The room was dark, but I didn’t need any light as I stared at the memory of Charlotte’s body. She sure as hell didn’t look that ripe when she was flitting around the house in clothes. I didn’t know what to do with my discovery and the longer I thought, the more questions arose in my mind. Should I ignore it? Investigate further? Tell her mother? What was she doing with that dildo, had she gone all the way, use it to pop her cherry, or was she still modest enough to be experimenting? Was she messing around with the skinny, knuckle-dragging, vacant-eyed, teen boys she was hanging with? My daddy concerns were on high alert and I knew I should do something.

About 4 that morning I slunk back to my daughter’s room and eased open the door. Charlotte was cuddled under her blanket, snuggled into her pillow. I stepped to the bed and looked down on her pretty profile, and for the first time, saw my child as an alluring female, not my girl. Ashamed of the rush that tickled my nuts, I shifted back from the bed where my barefoot stepped on something cool and rubbery, I looked down to see the dildo poking from under my toes. I picked it up gingerly then did something that shamed me even more. I put her play prick to my nose to see if I could catch her scent, again my balls stirred. I had to escape my thoughts so I bolted back to bed, I wasn’t aware that I still held the plastic prick until I lay down. Unsure of what to do with it, I dropped it behind the bedside stand, to the floor against the wall. I didn’t get a wink of sleep that night. That morning, I was in the kitchen pouring a much-needed cup of coffee when a loud explosion of voices echoed through the house, “Which one of you was in my room last night!?” Charlotte was yelling at the twins.

They denied in unison, “Not me.”

“Don’t lie you little creeps, one of you, probably both had to be in my room, I know it!”

My wife jumped in, “Charlotte, what the hell are you yelling about?”

“They were in my room mom, they had to have sneaked in when I was sleeping.”

“Why would you think that?” asked my wife.

Charlotte’s voice dropped about 20 decibels, “Never mind, it doesn’t matter.” Just as her mother came to the kitchen, I heard my daughter threaten her brothers, “One of you took something from my room, I want it back or you’ll both catch a lot of hell from me.” I immediately knew what she was missing.

Charlotte was edgy that morning. It was only after the twins left for the school bus that she regained some composure, was a little more at ease. Again, my wife asked her what her problem was, but our daughter assumed one of her puberty-driven Stephen King personalities and snarled at her. After a short confrontation, the girl left for classes too, my wife Pearl came to me, “She’s being impossible! What the hell is wrong with the little terror? You have to talk to her Will, I can’t anymore.”

At that moment I knew I wouldn’t tell my wife about Charlotte’s new hobby, but I started to chuckle, Pearl looked at me, “What’s so funny?”

“Do you know what your dad says about the years you were a teenager?”

My wife wasn’t in a mood to be reflecting on her childhood, “No, what?” she grumbled.

“He’s told me a couple of times, that from the time you started puberty until you were about seventeen, he was not a husband and father, he was a referee. Now I know what he was saying.”

Pearl growled at me, “Not funny.” I thought it very amusing.

For three more days the hostility between Charlotte and the twins was deep enough to drown any family relationship. Pearl and Charlotte weren’t doing much better, I was the only one my daughter would interact with without snapping and snarling like a wounded animal. I knew what was bothering her, but wasn’t sure how to set things right again. I thought about putting the damn fuck toy back in her room, but even that might not work, she would still think her brothers had it and would continue to hate them. The whole crisis came to a head on Saturday afternoon when my wife warned me, “Get your daughter out of the house and talk her down. I’m ready to beat her into a body cast!”

“Charlotte, let’s get out of here, I’ll buy you an ice cream.” She and I had been using ice-cream parlors as a setting for many father/daughter talks. Many times, we enjoyed cones at Baskin-Robbins without brothers or her mother; clearing up problems, or just bonding.

She had a double-dip cup in front of her and took the first taste when I asked as if I didn’t know, “What’s going on sweetie, why are you so edgy these last few days?”

She blushed red, averted her eyes while trying to come up with a plausible answer, “I don’t know dad, the boys are just being brats.”

“Is your mom being a brat too?”

She looked up at me, exasperated, “Daddy, she’s always taking their side, she thinks I hate them all the time.”

“Don’t you?”

I had to smile when she grumbled, “Not all the time, no, but this week for sure.”

It was time to let her know I knew her secret, that her sex toy was missing, that she shouldn’t be blaming the boys. I pulled a small box out of my jacket pocket and put it on the table, “Here, maybe this will help you calm down.”

She lit up with a smile, she liked getting unexpected gifts, “You got me something?” The smile disappeared seconds later, just after she opened the box. She was looking at her dildo lying on a bed of cotton. Charlotte’s face scorched red, her eyes went as wide as saucers, she froze in place, she wasn’t breathing. Slowly she lifted her stunned eyes to mine, dropped the box then scrambled from the booth and out the door. I wasn’t surprised by her reaction, I was pretty sure it wouldn’t be, ‘Oh thanks, I missed this’.

She wasn’t in the car when I got in, my daughter had fled to parts unknown so I pulled onto the street and kept an eye out for her as I cruised slowly. She made it almost two city blocks before I found her; I pulled up next to her, “Charlotte, get in, you can’t run away from this.”

“I’ll never get in a car with you again, get away!” She yelled loud enough that some woman walking near scoured me with an evil eye, she saw a middle-aged man harassing a young girl on the street so she punched 911 into her phone, she was going to report me. I pulled away to the next corner then got out of the car and waited for Charlotte. When she got close, I stopped her, “You have to get in the car before the cops show up.”

“I hope they do!”

I didn’t get mad like her mother does, “Really? You want me to tell them why you’re mad?” I pulled the box out of my pocket again, “This might not look good for me at first, but after a few minutes of good cop/bad cop routine they would know whose this is; get in Charlotte, I’m not going to beat you or embarrass you anymore.”

With an attitude a mile wide and twice as deep, my daughter pulled open her door then slammed it closed. I got into the car then drove quickly from the woman, who was coming closer with the phone stuck to her ear. As we left, I was hoping she didn’t get my license for the police.

The house wouldn’t be a good place to take her so I headed across town to a city park, we could sit by Loon Lake and talk out the mess her dildo had made. As I drove, my daughter picked up the box then cautiously peeked inside again, she bloomed red once more then put a fingertip on it, like she was saying hello to an old friend. She looked up at me, “Did you take this from my room?”

“It was on the floor when I came in to tuck you in.”

“Did you show it to mom?”

“No sweetheart, so far it’s just me who knows you have that.”

She took a deep breath, sighed it out as relief and resignation combined, “Thanks for not telling her.” Charlotte leaned on the window, staring at nothing, saying nothing, for the rest of the drive to the park.

We sat on a bench facing the lake, watching ducks paddle past, “I guess I don’t need to start a conversation about the facts of life, do I?”

“No, I think between mom and other places I know enough.”

“Other places? Like boys?”

Charlotte grinned cheerlessly, she was becoming less agitated, “No daddy, no boys. Just my friends and movies and stuff.”

I was relieved to hear she hadn’t taken the final step, but I had a hundred questions crowding on my tongue waiting to be asked. I sensed had to be slow, delicate, with her, “How long have you had that, where did you get it?”

“A couple of months ago me and Mallory went online and bought it, she got one too, only it’s black.” She grinned with feeling for the first time, “I had to put in my birthday so I made one up like I was nineteen. After that, I was the first to check the mail every day until it came.”

“Online? I don’t normally see ads for sex Toys online, where were you looking, on porn sites?” Once again, she colored from cheeks down her neck, she didn’t need to answer the question. My daughter looked at porn. Sitting beside her, I checked the legs extended from her skirt and felt a tension tighten my balls. I recalled the image of her nude on the bed and the tension extended to my prick. I had to change the subject, “Look girl, your secret is safe, I won’t tell your mom. I know full well if she knew you have that, there would be hours of lectures neither of us would enjoy. You can keep your toy and do whatever you do with it, my lips are sealed.”

She buoyed as if a huge weight was lifted from her, but only mumbled quietly, “Promise?”

“Pinky Promise.”

“Thanks dad.” She caught my eyes with hers for a moment while she thought; her secret was out and since I didn’t throw a fit or condemn her, she felt safe enough to ask, “I don’t do anything with boys, but I get curious, I have questions about them and how they think about girls. If I asked you some questions, would you answer them?”

“Right now?”

“No, later, right now I need to go home and be nice to mom.”

“And your brothers.”

She gave me a fully relaxed grin, “Maybe, but they’re still loathsome cretins.”

There was a cop car in front of the house, Pearl was standing on the lawn talking to an officer; the woman had seen my license. Charlotte and I went to the cop and in a few minutes explained the situation; satisfied I wasn’t some kind of sexual predator or abusing my family, she left. As the cruiser pulled away Pearl asked, “What the hell was that all about?”

Charlotte put a hand on her mother’s arm, “I was fighting with daddy on the street and some woman called it in.”

“Are you two still fighting?”

“No mom, I’m done fighting with everybody, let’s go in the house.” Pearl shot me a look of gratitude that her daughter was again part of the family.

Two weeks went by and Charlotte and I regained our normal comfort level when she and I were together. I wanted desperately to ask her what she was doing when the lights were out, but propriety kept me mum. It was another Saturday when she approached me in the backyard, I shut down the mower as she came to me, “Dad, can we talk?”

“Sure, what about?”

Her eyes flitted from the ground to the sky, “About, uh, you know, about my thing.”

“Thing?”

She looked at me annoyed, “Dildo.”

Well at least she was being blunt, not evasive, “What about it?”

She surprised me by asking, “Does mom have something like that?”

“Uh, well, yes, if you need to know.”

“Like mine?”

“Yes, an erection shaped dildo, a bit larger than yours, and it vibrates.”

Charlotte looked around, took a nervous breath then looked back at me, “Do you help her with them sometimes?”

I didn’t know where her curiosity was going but I wasn’t about to tell her to go away, what her mother and I did in the dark was too private, “Sometimes, they can be a fun diversion when we make love.”

She began to blush and I could see her struggling to tell me, “I kind of use mine a little but I haven’t gone all the way.”

Even though I knew what she was saying, the pervert within wanted to hear the words, “All the way?”

Charlotte flustered, sipped a breath then let it out as a rush of air, “I never put it in me, I’m scared to, it might hurt, I might bleed and it would freak me out.”

My daughter and I had been on the same wavelength since she was young, I knew what she was trying to say, “So, what are you saying girl, you don’t want to be alone if you use it properly?”

She was visibly shaking, beet red in the face as she very quietly asked, “Can you help me daddy, if you help mom, can you show me how it’s supposed to work too?”

A hundred different responses flooded my mind, my nuts tightened up, my prick flexed with an erotic shock, my mind’s eye magnified the memory of Charlotte naked and lying on her bed.
