(continued from Karen at 50, part 2)
We made love that night, of course, David and I. We'd both been getting more affectionate with one another, and that often led to sharing a glass or two of wine, and then to bed.
As we were lying quietly together in the dark bedroom, still holding one another in a post-coital snuggle, I whispered, "I have something I have to tell you."
David tensed a bit, but did not move away. "Is something wrong? Are we OK?"
"Oh, David. We're totally OK, more than OK. But something has happened, and I want to tell you, but I'm scared you might judge me."
David snuggled closer. "If you and me are OK, more than OK, then don't worry. We're each other's champions!" he whispered into my hair. "What is it?"
"I'm just going to say it, then," I said, steeling myself. "Mum asked to see me naked, then she undressed herself, so I undressed, not wanting to make her feel bad. She looked at me, I looked at her, and she said she wanted to watch."
"Oh. That's pretty strange behavior," said David quietly. "Watch what?"
"Watch me. Watch you. Making love."
David was silent.
"Then we masturbated, together, in Mum's living room. There! That's' it. That's what I wanted to tell you."
Still, David said nothing, but he still held me close, breathing into my hair. I could feel his penis stirring against me.
"So, are we still OK?" I asked. "You're not judging me? Nothing really terrible happened."
"We're still OK," David whispered back. "And I'm not judging you."
"Oh, good," I whispered. "I figured you and Mum liked each other so well, and you and I have been getting on so well ... and in bed ... that you wouldn't get angry."
David said, "I'm not angry. And what did you tell her?"
"About what?" I asked.
"About watching us."
"I didn't tell her anything," I stammered.
"Will she ask again, do you think?" asked David.
"I don't know. Probably. She seems very eager,"
"OK then, I think ... it might be OK with me. At least to lead her on a bit, to make her happy," said David, slowly. "If it's OK with you."
I giggled. I don't know why. "I'll think about it."
"OK," said David.
"Mum really likes you, you know," I said. "And she thinks you're lucky to have me. And she is very hairy down there." I felt like I was just blathering to fill the quiet darkness.
David laughed softly, and held me closer. His hard penis pressing against me suggested that we weren't quite done for the evening.

A week later, on an early February Saturday evening, David and I invited Mum over for snacks and a glass of wine. Evie had been pressing me all week at the shop, about my "next steps" with Mum and David. She'd been surprisingly eager about the subject. I was rather happy I'd confided in her, and her eagerness titillated me, and sort of inspired me to action.
Mum arrived at our place around 7:00 PM. We sat down in the living room, Mum in a rocking recliner, David and I on the leather couch. I poured us each some Prosecco, and proposed a toast.
"What's the occasion?" asked Mum.
