April was enjoying breakfast with her mother on a chilly Saturday morning. They always made time like this to hang out. After all, they were the only family they each had. April's father left them right after she was born. But her mother didn't fall into despair. Instead, she had dedicated her life to giving her daughter all the love she could.
April, now that she was 18 years old, had come to appreciate all her mother had done for her. The last two decades of her mother's life were split between working and caring for her. But now that she was an adult herself and about to head to college in a few months, she hoped her mother would make time for herself again. Find new hobbies, make friends, and maybe even find a romantic relationship. Since her father left, April's mother hasn't gone on a single date. But she was still young. Only 38 years old.
April herself hasn't explored the romantic world either but for different reasons. She dedicated herself to her studies and her love of art and music. But what she lacked in boyfriends, she made up for with friends. In particular, she had four close friends. Darnell, Cody, Vincent, and Aaron. Her mother had teased her in the past for having four guys as best friends and predicted she would end up dating them. But April said that wasn't going to happen and proved herself correct. These guys were her friends, and no other funny business had ever happened with them.
"Are your friends coming over tonight to hang out again," her mother asked. April nodded. Her house was a frequent hangout spot for them. Her mother enjoyed having her friends around, too, and they frequently called her the 'cool mom.'
"I'm glad to hear it. Now that they are all 18 years old, I can't help but notice how handsome they are," she said with a sly smile.
"Mom! Gross! Those are my friends you're talking about," April said, shocked that her mom would comment on her friend's appearance.
"Relax, I'm just saying. They wouldn't be interested in me anyway. I'm twice their age. But can you imagine...," she said, looking off into the distance.
"No! I can't and won't imagine that. Can we please talk about something else," April said in protest. Hearing that her mom even entertained the idea of being anything resembling romantic with her friends was beyond embarrassing. She appreciated that her mother hadn't had any contact with a man in decades, but she could start by dating men her age.
However, the young woman calmed herself down. Her mom was just teasing. And even if she was interested in her friends in that way. It's like her mom said to herself; she's twenty years older than them. April even doubted how much her four male friends were interested in romantic encounters currently. None of them have had girlfriends or been on dates as far as she knew. The five of them just wanted to have clean fun.
That evening, the four guys arrived together at April's house. She had made plans for them to play the board game Wing Span. "Hey guys, I got the game set up in the backroom. I even added in the Asian bird expansion, so there are even more bird powers you can use!" April excitedly said.
But as she led them to the room she expected them to spend the next seven hours playing the bird-themed game, the four boys were momentarily distracted by the arrival of April's mother. "Hello, boys! It's so nice to see you all. I trust you all are staying fit as ever?" She said to them.
"We try our best, Ms. Booker," Darnell said in a flirty tone that alarmed April.
"You're looking fit yourself, ma'am," Cody added.
"Oh, stop it, you guys. You're going to tempt me into doing something bad...," she said. What the heck does that mean, April thought. She started pushing her friends down the hall, away from her mother.
"Come on, I need to explain to you guys how the egg-laying mechanism works in the game," April said.
Finally, away from the odd behavior her mother was portraying, April got to work walking them through the board game she intended for the five of them to play for the next five to seven hours. Ten minutes later, she was in the middle of explaining how food selection works. "If the dice show the same food, you can re-roll. But that's optional," she said as she showed them an example.
"Man, Ms. Booker looked so good. Has she been working out, April," Aaron asked, interrupting her explanation.
"She's been taking walks more, I guess. Anyway, you can only take food when you do the collection action...," she said, changing the subject back to the game before getting interrupted yet again.
"She was being really friendly with us. Even flirty," Vincent remarked.
"Yeah, she kept talking about how handsome you guys were earlier today. She even wondered out loud if you guys were interested in her. It was pretty embarrassing to hear. She's twice your age. Can you imagine!" April said with a laugh. She felt bad making fun of her mother like this, but her behavior was so odd today.
"Your mom's interested in us?" Cody asked, surprised.
"That's not what I said. She was wondering if you all were interested in her. God, I feel cringy even telling you guys about it," April said, clarifying. "But let's talk about how nectar is used." But the boys were becoming less interested in the avian-themed game.
"Dude, she said we were handsome. She hasn't been with anyone in almost two decades. Do you think we might have a shot with her?" Cody asked the group.
April's eyes lit up in horror. These guys were actually interested in her mother? "Whoa, guys. She's my mom. Can we not talk about her like this," she asked.
"We're not teasing April. I don't know about the other guys, but I think your mom is a stone-cold fox. I'm sorry, but if she is attracted to me, I'm taking my shot," Cody said.
The other three voiced their strong agreement. "Let's go talk to her. We're all 18 now. She might be on board for anything," Darnell suggested. This prompted the four boys to stand up.
April ran to the door and blocked it. Their willingness and her mom's flirty demeanor tonight made for a bad combination. She didn't need her friends and her mom engaging in... funny business. "Guys, wait. I'm asking you, as your long-term friend here, please don't go flirt with my mom," April said, appealing to the four guys.
They all looked at each other before Cody replied. "To be clear, April, we're not looking to flirt. Let's stop beating around the bush here and be clear. We want to have sex with your mom, and we think we have a real shot tonight at actually making this happen." While the young woman didn't say this, she agreed with her friends. With how her mom has been talking today, she might let four teenage boys seduce her. April did not need to have her friends turning her mom into their fuck buddy.
"Don't do this, guys. She's my mom," April said desperately.
"We're not asking you to watch or anything, April. We're adults now. Your mother is an adult woman. A woman with desires and the ability to give consent. I'm sorry that you are uncomfortable with the situation, but you don't have the right to interfere if everyone involved is on board starting a sexual relationship," Aaron explained. She understood his point, but her point was she didn't want her mom fucking her friends.
They started crowding April, trying to get past. The second they do, there would be nothing stopping them from beginning a five-way orgy with her only parent. Her mind raced about what she could say to convince them. Suddenly, a plausible idea came to her, and she spoke up.
"How about I flash you guys my underwear," the young woman blurted out. All four of them stopped their attempt to leave the room, and her cheeks went red. She couldn't believe those words that came out of her mouth. She almost spoke out, declaring it to be a joke, but she had successfully stopped them.
"Really, April? Or are you just fooling us," Cody asked skeptically.
Darnell was also in doubt. "You've never been for one for showing off your body. You wear a t-shirt and swim trunks over your one-piece bathing suit when you go to the pool."
They weren't lying. April was always shy about her body, although others have told her that she is quite attractive. She finds her d-cup boobs embarrassingly big and does everything she can to keep them hidden. April's bottom is also bigger than she would like, as many people walking by her have declared her ass to be mighty. Today, she was wearing a long skirt that reached her ankles that matched the sweater she wore for a top. What worried her, though, was she remembered she wore a lacy red bra and panties. April's underwear is usually plain and boring, but today, she had elected to wear her one fancy pair. A decision she was regretting.
"I'm... not kidding. But only a quick flash! Just so you guys will calm down, and we can play the game," she said with a shaky voice. The four of them backed up and watched April with interest. They were expecting her to flash them right then and there, it seems. April's mind raced with panicked thoughts. She had never done anything like this, and she worried she was opening a door she could never close. Would these guys expect her to do this again in the future? Would they start to see her as more than a friend? She wasn't sure she was ready for that.
But in the short term, she needed to do this. Them having sex with her mom would change their relationship far more than briefly seeing her underwear. As she felt her face heat up, April gripped the bottom of her sweater tightly. Closing her eyes, she then quickly lifted up her shirt, feeling the cooler air hit her stomach and upper chest. She then pulled her sweater back down. They saw her bra, even if just for a second. It was done. She opened her eyes to the smiling faces of her friends, still staring at her chest even though the underwear was now not visible. "Okay. Let's get back to the game," April said in a quiet voice.
But the guys didn't follow her back to the table. "You only showed us your bra. You still need to flash us your panties," Aaron said.
"What?" April said, turning around in shock. "I didn't say anything about my panties. That's asking too much, guys!"
They looked disappointed but understanding. "You don't need to do anything that makes you uncomfortable, April. We'll come back after we're done to start the game," Aaron said as, once again, the guys headed towards the door and into the willing arms of April's mother.
