When I heard my cousin Eloise was more or less homeless, having left her abusive boyfriend and being turned away at her mother's house I decided to step in and see if she wanted to stay with me a while.
We were about the same age and we'd more or less grown up together. Not that our parents were ever the closest of siblings. In fact, they hated one another but as cousins we set our parents issues aside and at least acted like family when we'd see each other in school or whatever.

I found her at one of her friends houses. It wasn't a pretty sight. Most of her friends were hoodlums. Druggies, small time dealers, gang members, you name it. Her boyfriends were the same. I asked her if she wanted to stay with me and she said she did. I helped her gather up her clothes and her baby daughter's belongings and the three of us headed back to my apartment.

I had a nice one bedroom in a respectable neighborhood. Most of the residents in my gated community were middle to upper middle class working families. I told Eloise not to worry about kicking in on the rent or the other bills. For now it'd just be nice having someone around to maybe clean house a little and cook a few meals. She agreed to do it.

So for a couple of weeks it was pretty nice. I'd come home from work and she'd have dinner ready. She wasn't the best cook but I'm easy to please. Afterward we'd watch tv together or just shoot the shit and catch up. Weekends we'd even go out as a little family to the movies or wherever. When I'd run into friends from work they always assumed Eloise was my girlfriend.

I had to admit, she had grown up to be a really pretty lady. She was twenty-two, about 5'5'', and slender with a very feminine figure. She had dyed her naturally dark hair blonde with a few dark streaks here and there. It went well with her blue eyes. As for me, I've never considered myself better than average looking on my best day. I'm 6'', I could lose a few pounds but I don't look terrible. Like Eloise I had the dark hair and lighter eyes that run in the family.

It had been nearly two years since I'd lived with a woman. My last relationship hadn't ended particularly well either. I'd been cheated on. And every time I'd run into that bitch she seemed amused that I hadn't jumped right back into a relationship yet, while she had gone through a couple of guys since leaving me. So it was particularly sweet when I ran into the ex with Eloise by my side. I told her the deal and asked her to pretend we were together. She deserved an Oscar. You should have seen my ex when she thought that baby was mine, because if it was my daughter then it meant I'd screwed around on her when she'd been screwing around on me. Have you ever seen a cartoon where someone gets so mad there head literally explodes?? Well, my ex looked as if she were going to erupt. Eloise and I laughed about that all the way back home.

Late that night, baby tucked in bed I was lying on my bed talking to Eloise. She had come in to ask if I needed a back rub before she crashed. She'd been giving them to me off and on for a week or so, ever since I complained of stiff muscles from work. She didn't weigh much so I'd have her walk across my back sometimes or sit back there and use her hands to really work my back into shape. It felt great. This particular night she had come in after I'd tucked myself into bed. I always slept nude so I was naked beneath the covers. I told her I was good, so she sat on the edge of the bed and cracked a joke about my ex. We laughed. She was dressed in an extra long t-shirt. I'm pretty sure she was just in her panties underneath, but you couldn't tell. Anyway, the thought made me hard. Eloise had been resting one hand on my stomach while we talked. I took it and slipped it beneath the covers until it touched my erect cock. She wrapped her hand around it without breaking conversation and began slowly stroking it.

I told her it felt really good, she smiled and pushed the blanket back to uncover my entire crotch area. She kept masturbating me. She said it was the least she could do, I'd been so good to her and her little girl. I told her I didn't expect any favors for that. She said she knew and kept stroking. I reached over and groped a tit, feeling its weight in my hand, squeezing it, running my thumb over the nipple. She asked me if I wanted a little company in bed that night. I told her I did. So she pulled her shirt off, revealing the panties I already suspected were underneath. She peeled those off and dropped them on the floor then crawled into bed with me. We had some of the best sex I've ever had. Eloise began by giving me head and we ended with me riding her hard and rough from behind. She had a really tight pussy. I loved it. She also didn't shave, so she looked like a real woman to me. I love a hairy bush. I came in her mouth and her pussy more than once before we drifted off to sleep in each others arms.

To make a long story short, cousins or not I asked her to be my woman and she accepted. We're happy together and the sex is incredible. We don't give a damn what our family thinks or anyone else.
