The Treehouse

As a child, I loved going to my grandparent's farm and when I grew up and went to university I studied agriculture and animal husbandry. I always intended to live and work on a farm, by the time I was finished university, my grandparents were ready to retire and I was given the farm to manage. I was happy with this and soon moved in and my grandparents retired to a retirement village near the coast. I had some money of my own, as as a family we're quite well off, I did up the farmhouse and bought a new larger tractor. All was going well and one day after all the fields had all been sown and I was sitting on the back porch looking towards the barn. My eyes fixed on the old oak tree in between the barn and the house, as a child I would climb that old tree and wanted to build a treehouse in it as long as I could remember. Those now 28 and single, people might think I'm too old for such things. I decided to build a treehouse, there was plenty of old lumber and some old iron roofing on the farm and I had been thinking of getting rid of it. I would need some thicker timber for the flooring supports, so I went to the reclaim yard and got what I needed. Along with an old steel staircase from the old mill, it would make it easier to get into the treehouse. I worked about 2 hours a day on the treehouse and in just over 3 weeks was finished. I had painted it in a camouflage pattern as well as the stairs which could be raised by an endless chain pulley system. About a month later the family came for a visit, including my grandparents. It would be crowded, but I decided I could sleep in the treehouse, there was an old bed in it and with a battery-powered light it would do for the week they were staying. I told everyone I would stay in the treehouse and everyone hadn't noticed it. With the stairs lowered they all looked thru it and said it was nice, but it might get too cold at night. I said it would fine for a week or so and I would get another blanket if I needed it. As it turned it was quite comfortable, except for the old mattress wasn't good and I got another the next day. After everyone left, I decided to insulate the treehouse. It 2 weeks doing that and while I did that I power connect to the treehouse, just 3 sockets. I put a lamp in the treehouse, then my cousin Susan 27 and her 2 children came for a visit. She had just divorced and wanted a break from the city and thought a holiday on the old family farm would be good for her and her children. My mother Ruth had rung and asked me if it would be okay. I said they were most welcome, on their arrival I noticed Susan was really dejected and wasn't her normal bubbly self. I showed her and the children around the farm and my dog Shep was a big hit with the children, they became inseparable and he started to sleep in their room with them. After about a week Susan's parents came and picked up the children for a trip. Susan was supposed to be going, but decided she didn't want to be in a crowded city just then. She and I would be alone for 4 days and it didn't worry me and later that day I was looking for her and seeing the stairs lowered at the treehouse had a look there. I found Susan sitting looking sad and tried to comfort her, she started to talk to me about her divorce and how her ex had said she was boring and worth the time being with and he even didn't want the children as they reminded him of her. I said you're not boring and he was a total jerk and by divorcing her had proved it, I said he would probably try and come back to you later. Once he realized how stupid he was, the longer he takes the bigger idiot he is. She made a small smile and gave me a hug, saying thanks. I'm just an average guy and not that great with women and having someone as great-looking as Susan hugging me caused me to get a hard-on. Susan noticed it almost straight away and she started to touch it, then she stroked it on the outside of my pants. Then she asked me to get it out of my pants, so she could see it, I was hesitant and she started to get it herself and started to stroke it again and then said you and I should take care of this here right now. I looked at her and she started to undress, I was at a loss. Not having much success with women and Susan took the lead. We had sex in the treehouse and slept together every night until the children and her parents returned after her parents left. She resumed sleeping with me and 3 weeks later she and the children returned to the city. A couple of months later my mother Ruth and her sister Gail arrived to see me, they said Susan was pregnant and they wanted to know what I was going to do about it. They weren't all that happy that I had slept with Susan and got her pregnant, but that was ancient history. Susan was pregnant and I had to take responsibility for my actions. They said Susan had said it was her fault and she had seduced me, but Susan was in a vulnerable state and should have not taken advantage of her. I was in shock at first and said I would do what ever Susan wanted to do. With that they rang Susan and told I would do anything she wanted, Susan replied that she come and see me and she arrived the next day with her children. While Susan and I went for a walk, the children played with Shep and stayed near their grandmother and aunt. Susan told me I didn't have to do anything, but I said I wanted to do something and I had really enjoyed our time together. She replied she had also enjoyed our time together. I then said why don't you and the children come and live with me. You really mean that she said, yes I do I replied. We returned and told our mothers our decision, I was expecting them to be shocked. I was wrong, Gail said Susan should change her surname to mine and we could live together and it wouldn't draw attention to the fact we're related. As for the rest of the family, they will keep it quiet they said. Susan and her children moved in with me a week later and Susan had a baby boy David after our grandfather. We're all very happy.
