Although it stands on its own, this story connects from a previous series "How I Became A Cam Girl".

"Hey Peter can you come down here for a minute please?"
I sounded like a mother who was about to be angry with her son, but honestly I wasn't. I didn't know how to be feeling but I knew that I definitely was not angry. My mind was racing with possibilities and hypotheticals stemming from something I had been concerned about for months now... Turning my voice and tone to heavy or concerned, which also was not my intention. As a mother I had compassion and understanding for my son above all else, but finding out about one of his sexual kinks is just something a mother never expects or thinks about.
I admit that I wasn't completely naive to Peter's coming of age circumstance, he was now 19 after all. I knew he masturbated... a lot... and had porn on his computer and occasionally had girls over who let's just say were there for only one thing, I assumed. It was new to him as he'd been fairly shy all his teenage life until now, as his friends got girlfriends and the pressures of having sex were all but making up his mind for him. I thought that he just hadn't met the right girl yet.
"Hey Mom, what's up?" He looked concerned.
"Oh nothing big hunny, just wanted to know what you wanted for dinner?" I chickened out.
"Uh huh" he didn't believe me.
"We haven't ordered pizza in awhile, do you want to do that? Give them a call and I'll pay." I said.
"I can just order online Mom."
"Duh! Of course you can." I laughed nervously watching him go back to his room.
What was I thinking? I was in no mood to confront him right now. I had to take some time to process this. It had now been two years of being on our own, just Peter and I. His father passed away and although it took some time we've really bonded more than ever and supported each other to get back to our normal lives.. I use the term "normal" lightly as things are certainly different and maybe not so "normal" to most people.
Personally I'd changed a lot in that short time, discovering things about myself I thought I'd long forgotten. My body and soul had a reawakening and I've been feeling amazing ever since! The problem is my decisions haven't all been the best and although well intentioned, I know they've affected Peter. I went from being a teacher at his school to a full time work from home mom, working as a web cam model online... Which I had kept hidden from him as long as I possibly could, until I recently found out he had been watching me take my clothes off for at least the last month!
I justify my profession with the fact that I've been able to afford to send my son to college, and support us financially for the last couple of years without him having to worry about anything. I was doing something I loved and that made me feel good, while gaining more time to spend with Peter. It was a win - win in my books, and I was successful at keeping it from interfering with my "normal" life. Now things felt a whole lot more complicated and I was beginning to regret every minute of it.
"Hi Joyce, how are you?" I decided to call my best friend to get my mind off things.
"Pretty good Mary, thanks, just getting home from work! Busy day. Exhausted."
Joyce was always good at carrying the conversation and talking about herself, exactly what I needed.
"Ya I'm ready to relax myself!"
"Relax? What did you do all day? Sit on the computer?" She laughs at me.
"Well yes but data entry can be pretty tiring and mundane Joycee."
"Right, right.. Well at least you don't have to deal with customers all day like I do at the store, they're awful. I'm almost ready to tell Ted that I need a vacation!"
My sweet friend had no idea what I was really up to earlier today... Talking to a whole group of younger guys, each eager to get my attention and pay me to take my clothes off for them... Mm even the thought excited me again. I really was exhausted though, those boys had me fucking myself so hard and summing so much, I thought I'd pass out!
"You should! You deserve a good vacation Joycee. Tell him he has to run things for a week while us girls jet to Mexico!"
"Mare, don't even put the thought in my head... Are you serious? Should we?"
"Absolutely! It's overdue... let's do it!"
"Ok I'm telling him tonight! I'll come by this weekend and we can plan it out!"
"Yay! Sounds lovely dear. I better go, Pete is ordering pizza and it will probably be here soon! "
"Ok have a good night"
"Buh bye"
I felt a little lighter, it would be good to get away for a week I thought. I hadn't been on a vacation in years... The last time I went away was during a rocky time with Paul, and I ended up cheating on him and getting pregnant with my daughter, Penny. I was still so young, only 26, and had Peter a few years earlier... I needed an escape and I went about it all the wrong way looking back now. Only good thing that came out of it all was Penny, who mostly lives with her father in Mexico. It wasn't my decision to not have her live with us here, but Paul couldn't do it. As strong of a man as he was, he didn't want Penny to feel like he was against her when really it was me he was upset with. After I gave birth I went to live with her father, Carl for the first 4 years. It was the strangest yet most insightful journey of my life at the time, I grew up a lot then. Paul didn't know it but Carl was a good influence on me, him and his family are so supportive and loving. I really really lucked out.
"Pizza should be here any second!" yelled Peter from down the hallway.
"Ok!" I snapped out of my flashback.
The pizza came and Peter came out of his hole to eat with me in the kitchen. I wasn't even thinking about the fact I'd discovered he was a regular in my online cam room under the username "theonlyson1".
"Mom, are you going to Mexico?" Pete said out the blue.
"Um I'm not sure, why do you ask?"
"I heard you talking to Joyce earlier and I wondered if you were going to see Penny?"
