It's been a few months, but the third part is finally here. I apologize for the wait to those who have enjoyed the previous parts of this story.

"It'll probably take a couple hours for me to wash and dry everything." Mrs. Young told me as she made sure she picked up all of my wet clothing. "Should be done by morning." She added.
"Thanks," I said, still holding my shirt over myself. She had to know what she was doing to me.
"Any idea when we should be expecting Michael back?" She asked, seeming to make her stay purposely longer. I was really considering taking a shower just to jerk off.
"Uh, he didn't say," I told her. "Could be any minute now or some time later."
She nodded as she looked around the room. Michael's walls were covered with Xbox game posters and some drawings he had done over the past couple years. I watched her eyes widen when they landed on a poster of a topless, big-breasted woman on the back of the closet door. She rolled her eyes, obviously having that be the first time she'd ever seen it.
"Anyway," she looked back at me, "I washed the blanket you slept with last night too and it's folded up downstairs on the couch for you."
"Oh," I shook my head, "You didn't have to wash it."
She straightened her lips and almost looked a little embarrassed. "I think I did."
"Why?" I asked.
She was quiet for many seconds. "Because," she started, "I'm guessing after I went back upstairs last night you had to take care of yourself again and I noticed you hadn't really cleaned up everything. So..."
"Oh," I widened my eyes and uncontrollably grinned feeling very stupid. "Well that's embarrassing."
She almost smiled, not knowing if it was okay to. "Well it's clean now." She repeated, moving closer to the door. It seemed as if the conversation had gotten a little too uncomfortable for her to stay any longer.
"Thanks, Mrs. Young." I said.

Instead of going downstairs to go to sleep on the couch, I decided to stay up in Michael's room for awhile longer. At least until Mrs. Young went to bed. I felt that the more I avoided conversating with her the less chance there would be that I would be teased.
I turned the Xbox on and played some games by myself to try and pass time. But I could feel myself slowly wanting to head downstairs. My eyes felt so heavy.
I turned from hearing a light knock on the door. Mrs. Young was standing there wearing black shorts and a loose gray t-shirt. Her hair was still down and looked kind of wet like she had just gotten out of the shower.
"Hey," she said. "I'm about to head to bed." She looked at the controller in my hand then to the TV screen. "What are you doing?"
"Playing a game." I told her.
She stepped into the room and moved towards me and flopped down on the beanbag beside me. "Can I watch?" She asked.
I was happy to be near her, but on the other hand....
"You're not going to bed?" I questioned.
"I'll just stay and watch for a few minutes." She told me.
"Well," I said. "I was about to go to bed myself. But I'll let you stay if you play with me."
She stared at me without saying anything for a long second. I was sure she thought I was purposely making it sound like an innuendo.
"I don't know how to play," She told me finally, ignoring what she obviously thought.
"It's easy." I shrugged.

We ended up surviving the horde of zombies for about 20 minutes before we both died.
"Matthew!" She laughed when the end game screen came up.
"Hey, it's your fault!" I laughed with her. "If I didn't have to keep reviving your ass we would have made it longer."
She continued giggling. "I told you I didn't know what I was doing. And don't say ass." She scolded, kicking back into her motherly instincts.
"You're right. I was thoroughly warned." I agreed, turning the console off and taking the controller from her to set it back under the TV along with mine.
"That was fun." She told me after our laughter died down.
I leaned back in my beanbag and nodded. It had been fun. I almost forgot it was my best friends mom I was sitting next to having all this fun with.
"Well," She put her hands on her knees and pushed herself up to her feet. "I should be heading to bed. It's midnight."
I cursed in my head, feeling even more exhausted.
"You look tired, Matthew." She told me. "Go to sleep."
"I am," I stood up.
"Actually, Matthew," She stopped before heading out of the room. "I turned the heat off tonight because the bill is getting pretty high and it's supposed to be kind of cold. I wanted to give you another blanket just in case."
"Oh, that's fine." I turned the offer down. I felt fine with what I had. I didn't think I'd get cold at all.
"Well, it wouldn't hurt to have it just in case. Would it?" She insisted.
"I guess not," I said.
"Come on," She nodded towards the hallway. I followed her out of Michael's room.
She had the lamp turned on on her nightstand, but her bed was still made unlike last night when I had walked in.
"I might have one in my closet." She said, then went in that direction. I stopped, unsure whether or not to follow her into her walk-in closet.
"Matthew," She called from inside. I went further, investigating what the problem was. I looked into the small room and found her trying to reach for a blanket on the very top shelf. She was just short enough for it to be out of her reach. "Can you reach this for me?"
"Yeah, sure," I walked in and reached up to pull the blanket down. I noticed there were some blankets on the bottom shelves as I held it in my hands.
"It was too high for me," she smiled as she stared at the blanket. It was a thick one and I really didn't feel like I needed it. It would just burn me up if I used it. But taking it downstairs wouldn't hurt, like she said.
"Thanks for letting me use it," I said, realizing how close we were standing to each other. The room seemed to be a lot smaller now that I was aware of my surroundings.
"Matthew," she stepped closer to me.
My heart began to race. Where was this going? "What?"
She stared up at me and bit her lip. And that's when I really noticed her lips. And I seemed to be fully aware that I had lips as well. And hers never looked more attractive than in that moment when she bit her bottom one.
She stayed quiet, then looked down to break the eye contact.
"What?" I repeated, lowering my voice.
"I was, um..." She said, still not looking at me.
I took my hand and placed it under her chin to make her look at me. She looked confused and a little worried. I wondered what she was thinking. I waited, but she never finished her sentence.
"You were what?" I urged her to continue.
Instead though, she brought her hand up and placed it on the side of my face. I had taken my hand away from her chin already a few seconds before and I didn't feel like it was anything serious when I touched her. But now she was touching me. Her thumb rubbed gently over my cheek bone several times.
I felt like I stopped breathing. I was just literally holding my breath. And I felt myself moving even closer to her. And before I knew it I had dropped the blanket on the floor between us, and we were both moving closer to each other.
She pulled at the front of my shirt and squeezed at my chest. Not knowing exactly what she wanted, I held onto her waist. Her curves reminded me that she was still quite young for being a mom. And that was my whole point in liking her, because she was a young mom. I didn't know why it turned me on so much, but it did. More than the hot brunette who got me and my best friend off only hours ago.
I leaned my head down as I noticed her looking up at me. Maybe she was changing her mind. And maybe she wouldn't tease me again. She would give me what we both wanted.
But suddenly, before our lips connected, she looked down, having me kiss the top of her head instead.
I let out a slow breath of air I had been holding in. And I was disappointed.
"I'm sorry," she whispered.
"I wish you'd stop having to say that." I told her.
"I know this is wrong but," She stopped, not knowing how to finish her thought.
"It's worse if you keep leading me on like this." I told her honestly.
