I can't believe I just had sex in my mother's bed. Kevin is beside me, sleeping. He always sleeps after sex. The sheets are a mess and I'll have to wash them before my mother gets back. I have a few days, but have an irrational fear of her returning before planned.
Across from me, on the wall, is a portrait of my mother that she had taken during her "wild" phase a few years ago. This phase entailed having her picture taken at a glamour studio and going on vacation without me and my sister for the first time. We heard constantly about her new independence.
"I've done everything for you girls all my life and nothing for myself. I'm going to Las Vegas with Shirley for a few days. You can stay with your dad."
"Thank god," said my sister under her breath. For my sister, family vacations were an interruption of her social life. The hyperactive social life my mother tried to curb since adolescence, to no avail.
I agreed with my sister. Our mother's independence, to us, was long overdue and inadvertently provided our own long sought-after freedom. That occurred when I was 15. A couple years later, my mother's "wild" stage ended and she joined a church, a church that had a schedule of activities so robust that one had precious little time to sin. Then again, I'm not sure my mother would know how to sin even if she did have the time.
"Wednesday is potluck, are you two coming?" my mother asked, pulling the calendar from the refrigerator and taking the felt tip pin off the velcro holder.
"We just went to game night yesterday," my sister complained.
"And tomorrow we have Bible study," I added.
"An idle mind is the devil's playground," was my mother's retort. "Meet me here at 6:30. I'm going to go to the gym then stop at the store."
I stopped going to church last year. I don't need a bunch of repressed, old-fashioned people telling me what to do. I don't think sex is a sin. Kevin and I love each other and we express this love physically. He's not using me, like my mother thinks.
"You should wait until marriage. If he respected you, he'd wait," she told me with that mother duck look she gets when she doesn't approve of something.
"No one waits until marriage," I replied. "That's old-fashioned."
"I waited."
"No one waits anymore."
"Lots of people wait," she replied slowly, as though I were mentally retarded and she had to explain a lofty concept. "Today television and movies make you think it's okay to have sex. Sex should be with one person only."
"I'm an adult. You treat me like a kid."
"You're only 19. There's a lot you don't know yet."
She's wrong, I know a lot more about sex than she does. Kevin and I have been having sex for over a year now. I've probably had more sex with Kevin than my mom had in her entire marriage to my dad. I think it would do my mother good to have regular sexual release. Orgasm is part of emotional and mental health, if you ask me. My mother needs an orgasm, that's for sure. And she has the opportunity. There's a man from the church that has been taking her out for months now.
"Why don't you sleep with him?" I asked one day, hoping for an adult-to-adult conversation.
"It can wait until we get married, if we ever do. I don't think it's your position to ask me that."
"You should relax a little."
"Sinning isn't relaxing."
The portrait of my mother on the wall was taken when glamour shots were still popular. Actually, I don't think they were popular anymore; my mother has always been behind the times. In the photo, my mother is wearing a red sequined gown and is lounging on pillows. I wonder why she leaves this photo on the wall, now that she's religious. Isn't it a sin? I asked her once.
"It's not a sin, it's just a picture," she replied tersely, her disapproving stare at its strongest. I felt too stupid to pursue the subject.
Kevin has started snoring beside me. I was reluctant to have sex here. Kevin talked me into it. He has the ability to talk me into things I don't want to do. He and my mother do not get along – oil and water for sure. He's always saying that my mother is so full of pronouncing "shoulds" in life, that she can't get enough air to breathe.
In her defense, it's not wrong to have religion. I just think it's doesn't have to be so extreme. Sex is beautiful. My mother was a teenager after the so-called "sexual revolution." I don't know why she wasn't affected by it. What happened to the women who wrote "Our Bodies, Ourselves?" What happened to the women who shed their bras and demanded sexual rights? Did they disintegrate into thin air? What did they teach to their daughters? Or maybe they never got married and have no daughters to pass their teachings onto. There's a missing link that I've never understood. I don't know why people are so repressed again.
My mother is on a retreat with women from her church. I don't know why they call it a retreat when all they do is share a cabin and talk. In her absence, I invited Kevin over for dinner and a to watch a DVD and whatever happens after that. My mother would be furious if she knew Kevin was spending the night. She knows we're having sex, but any outward demonstration of it solicits a disapproving stare and cold silence the next morning.
My sister also lives at home, too. She's spending an inebriated night with her gang. I asked her to spend the night elsewhere. She readily complied, also taking the opportunity to do what she normally does without the parental judgment.
When Kevin arrived, I was stirring the spaghetti sauce.
"What's for dessert?" he asked immediately.
"Shouldn't we have dinner first?"
"Who says? Your mom's not here. We can have dessert first."
"If you eat your dinner," I teased, "mommy will let you have a big, big dessert."
Echoes of my mother, I suppose. One should eat dinner first. Kevin has broken me of some of my mother's habits. This evening he broke me of even more.
"I want dessert," Kevin purred in my ear as I stirred. He began fondling my breasts through the blue silk of my favorite, most seductive dress.
My nipples hardened and I had second thoughts about the "dinner first" rule. He then started kissing my neck. My pussy felt very hot. I dropped the spoon. Dessert would be first this evening. Kevin continued kissing my neck and fondling my breasts while the steam of dinner fogged my face.
"Do you want dinner?" Kevin whispered.
"No, not really," I moaned.
Kevin continued fondling one breast while he moved the other hand under my dress. His hand found my silk underwear and he rubbed my pussy through the material. I was wet with excitement.
Kevin's strong, bony hands teased my swollen, aroused clit through the silk. I put my hand behind me to check on the state of Kevin's arousal. For my convenience, Kevin had unzipped as he walked up behind me. His penis was accessible, very hard and slightly wet at the tip. Pre-cum. It turned me on when he got wet.
It was Kevin's habit to tease me until I asked for what I wanted. At first, I was embarrassed by having to ask. Later I learned to enjoy the climaxing excitement and not to rush my pleasures.
"Put your finger inside me," I moaned.
Kevin complied and I felt the rush of blood as his finger found its way inside my panties and into my waiting vagina. He fondled and fucked me with his able fingers. I was well on my way to my first orgasm of what promised to be a long, sex-filled evening. I might get hungry, but I would be loved.
"Are you going to cum all over my fingers?" he asked playfully.
"I plan to," I replied.
He poked and prodded my wet vagina. I writhed against the stove, trying not to burn myself against the electric coil. Kevin's penis was against my back. Pushing me against the stove for balance, he used his free hand to put his penis in my ass. Not all the way, just enough to tell me what he wanted.
I was climaxing from his fingers and confused about his penis. I wasn't sure I wanted to try anal sex. Kevin had suggested it before, but I'd avoided answering him that I'd ever do it.
Kevin pushed against me more and inserted another finger into my vagina. I felt my legs quiver and I lost balance. Kevin held me up as he ravaged my vagina. I felt him push his penis deeper into my crack. I let it happen.
"How does that feel?" Kevin asked.
I didn't respond as I was pre-occupied with my on-coming orgasm. My breathing increased and my legs quivered more. I pushed Kevin's hand deeper inside of me. As I did, he thrust his penis into my anus. It hurt. I wasn't sure I liked it but I didn't want to be prude.
He stopped for a moment then began thrusting slowly inside of me. I was distracted by the pain, but also stimulated by his fingers. It was an odd sensation – extreme pleasure and unusual pain. I came suddenly, feeling like my vagina was a spring that had let loose.
Kevin came right after me, dripping wet semen into the crack of my ass as he removed his penis from my anus. He came very quickly. Anal sex certainly turned him on. I made a mental note to ask if this was his first time. Now that I let him do it, I wasn't sure I would allow him again.
After he removed his penis, we lost our balance and fell backward, into the table. We disrupted the plates and glasses I had set before Kevin arrived. One of the glasses fell onto the floor and broke.
"Shit, my mother will kill me," I said. "These are her favorite glasses."
"She won't notice one missing," Kevin said. "Let's go upstairs and lie down."
I was worried about the glass. I looked for the broom.
