Daughter Seducing Stepdad

Clare sat on the edge of her bed, looking through a photo album. It had been a year since her mother passed away, and since she had no other family, she stayed with her stepfather. She was 18 now, technically she could have lived on her own; but since she had never finished school, didn’t own a car, the only work she could get was at the liquor store up the street, it was easier to stay with Rick until she could figure out what her next move should be. Plus, Rick had been in her life since she was 11. She called him “Dad”, they had good relationship, and it was a comfort to be around someone who had known and loved her mother almost as much as she had.

She heard the jingling of keys and the front door opening, she knew Rick had arrived home from work. She quickly put the photo album back in its drawer and went out to greet her stepfather. “Hey, Dad! How was work?”. He turned to her smiling, “Hey, Sweetie. Actually, work was great! Dan Barnes retired today, and I got tapped to take his place. I’ll be overseeing all operations at the factory.” Clare ran to him and jumped into his arms, giving him a tight hug, “Oh my god, Dad! That’s so great! I’ll cook your favorite steaks for dinner, and we can celebrate!”

He released her from the hug and said, “Well, I was thinking that since the new job also comes with a pretty great raise, we could go out to dinner someplace nice. Make a night out of it. What do you think?” Clare nodded, “That sounds great! Where should we go?” Rick seemed to think about it for a moment, “How about Tony’s Bistro?” Clare widened her eyes, “Isn’t that place really fancy? I don’t have any clothes that fancy.” Rick smiled and pulled out a wad of cash from his suit pocket, “Here, take my car and go buy yourself a nice dress. I still have to take a shower and change out of these work clothes. I should be just about done by the time you get back.”

Clare was excited. She had never been to a restaurant that nice. She knew exactly which store she wanted to go to and which dress she wanted to get, she had walked by and seen it in the window of the Rose Boutique at least a dozen times in the past month. She couldn’t believe that she was actually going to get it and go someplace nice enough to ware it and show it off.

When she got home, she could still hear Rick in the shower. She went straight to her room, changed into the dress, put on some makeup, and began to style her hair. When she finally saw herself in the mirror, she couldn’t believe what she was looking at. The long emerald green dress looked amazing against her milk pale skin, her light brown eyes looked bigger and more seductive with eyeliner and mascara, and her long auburn hair fell in curls almost to her waist. She was please that though she looked like a ‘girl’ an hour or two ago, now she looked like a ‘woman’. She spun in front of the mirror smiling.

There was a knock on her bedroom door. She turned from the mirror and said, “Come in!”. The door opened and for a moment Rick stood in the doorway with his mouth open, stunned into silence. When he regained the ability to speak, he said, “You look amazing!”. Clare smiled and blushed. Rick walked further into the room until he could gently grip her upper arms with his hands, “You look more like your mother every day.” And he kissed her on the forehead. With his lips pressed to her forehead, smelling his rich cologne and the firm but gentle grip on her arms, Clare felt a bit lightheaded. He stepped back from her, smiled, and offered her his arm, “Shall we head out for our night on the town, Madam?” She smiled and took his arm. It pleased her for some silly reason to be treated like a lady instead of a girl.

The evening went by quickly and delightfully. After a wonderful dinner, they went to a movie, and then took a walk around the town square. On their way home, Rick pulled into the parking lot of the local Bevmo and told Clare to wait in the car while he ran in for something. A few minutes later he returned with his purchase, which he put in the trunk, and away they went. The car was extremely quiet, but it was a peaceful relaxed silence that didn’t really call for talking. Clare stared out the window, watching the shadowy woods go by in a fast but lovely blur. Rick’s voice broke the silence, making Clare jump. “Did you have a nice night?” Clare looked at him, smiling, “Yes, it was wonderful.” Rick smiled while still looking at the road, “What was your favorite part?” he asked. Clare thought about it for a moment and then said, “Walking around the town square. People walking around in normal clothes looked at us like we were some rich important couple. I mean, I know we are the same as them, but it was nice to feel fancy and adult-ish for once. I know I’m 18, but sometimes I still feel like the world sees me as a kid.”

A few moments later they were pulling into the driveway of the house. Rick got out and came around to open Clare’s door for her and offer her a hand out of the car since she was wearing high heels and a long dress. After he helped her out, he went to the trunk and got out his purchase from Bevmo. “What did you get at the store?” Clare asked as Rick made his way back around the car. “A little treat to celebrate our night out.” He winked at her, “and if you want to feel like an adult, I think this will help too.”

He opened the front door, letting Clare enter ahead of him. She swept by him, and immediately went for the sofa where she began taking off her high heels. “The dress is comfy, but the shoes… Uhg! I don’t know how some women can stan to wear heels every day!” she said while looking up at him with a joking smile on her face. He smiled back down at her, “Well, you get comfortable. I’m going to go unwrap the surprise.
