Mom and I have left the house for only one reason, which is the need for groceries. It feels weird wearing clothes again and I find myself tugging at things that never used to bother me. We're both smiling as we walk down the aisles, but they aren't our true smiles. We must hide our love outside of our house and I hate everything about it.
There's a lesbian couple walking hand in hand with not so much as a glance from anyone. That's how I should be walking with mom. We are keeping ourselves from brushing against each other, since it would make it difficult to hide the fact that we are lovers. Why can't we be open about our relationship the way they are?
Mom's trying to pay for the groceries, but the man that looks to be about her age wants to make small talk. I think he's flirting and I get a little upset. He has no idea we're together and it's frustrating that I can't speak out. She's being polite, but not sending out a single signal of interest and finally start to get the hell out of that place.
We make it to the car and even here we are not free. I want to shout out my love to the world, but the world despises everything about us. It's difficult to keep from reaching out as we drive towards our only place of refuge.
Mom's face conceals what her words are saying. "Gretta's throwing a party for people like us. Do you want to go?"
I'm pretty sure I know what she's talking about, but need a little clarification. "What do you mean, mom, people like us?"
She is forced to hide her grin that's yearning to cross her lips. "Incest party. I don't know how she does it, but Gretta manages to find people like us and throws a few parties where people like us are free."
The idea of being free in front of others is very exciting, but there's one problem. "Jenna's going to be there, isn't she?"
Mom cracks a smile as she says, "Yes, she will. But you don't have to worry about her. Gretta will take care of that."
My curiosity is peeked. "Have you ever been to one of her incest parties, mom?"
She nods as she says, "A few."
I feel a tinge of jealousy cross my body. "Alone, mom?"
She nods as her green eyes watch the road. "Of course. They were very accommodating once they found out about me."
A breath a sigh of relief as I struggle to keep my eyes off of any other part of her body that isn't her head. "What happens at the parties?"
She laughs warmly as she says, "Everything. Gretta is very good at getting her guests to relax and the only rule is to have fun."
I pull my eyes to the road and see our house come into view. "Come on, mom, don't leave me hanging like that."
She's pulling into the garage and waits for it to close. "Let's just say, no one stays dressed for long. She has a few rooms for people that prefer privacy, but most don't bother."
I shake my head in disbelief. "You mean they?" There's no words that quite fit what I want to ask.
She looks into my green eyes with love as she says, "Do everything. There's no cameras allowed and everything electronic is left at the door. There's no fear of anyone outside of the house finding out about anything, since she doesn't have any neighbors. The only people there are ones that she can trust to keep their mouths shut. What do you think?"
I don't know what to think. "I don't know, mom. I want peole to know we're together, but that's a little much. Would we have to do anything?"
Mom shakes her head as she says, "No. We can keep our clothes on the entire night if you want. Gretta doesn't allow coercion of any kind and everyone that attends knows it. They are there to be free around other with similar relationships and nothing else."
I smile brightly as I allow the excitement to break through to my voice. "Alright, mom, let's go. But only if we can leave whenever I want."
Her fingers caress my red hair as she says, "Of course. I love you too much to ever have you do anything you don't want to do. Why don't you put everything away, while I call Gretta to find out when she's having the next party. I know one's coming up in about a week, but I forgot the date. My daughter makes it difficult to keep track of things like that."
Mom heads into the house and my eyes drift to her ass hidden beneath the clothing until the door closes most of the way behind her. We didn't get a lot and I can make it in one trip. I kick the door open with my foot and hear her on the phone with one of her oldest friends in the world. It's hard to tell what's going through her mind as she ends the call and her eyes search my face.
With everything put away, I hold her hands and look into her green eyes. "Well, mom."
She shakes her head as she scowls. "I knew she was having a party soon."
I love the way her hands feel in mine. "What about it?"
She continues to scowl as she says, "It's today. I could have sworn we had another week."
I smile to bring her comfort as I say, "Easy to do. I can barely remember which day it is anymore. When's the next one?"
She shrugs her shoulders and her voice is filled with the frustration I know she feels. "I don't know. She never plans these things all that far in advance. She throws it together on short notice. If we go, we have to leave right now. What does my daughter want to do?"
I grin as I say, "Do we have to leave right now?"
She returns the grin. "Yes, we do. I've told you how far it is. It's either now or wait until the next one and that could be months away.."
My hands tighten a little in hers and have already decided. "Let's go."
She presses her lips to mine and the kiss is far too short. "Are you sure?"
I nod and can still feel the softness on my lips. "I'm sure, mom. You said she has private rooms, so we can just use one of them. I kind of like the idea of not having to keep things quiet when we make love."
Mom's hands move up to my face and holds my head steady with her soft fingers. "If we go, and we certainly don't have to, you'll see things that you can't really prepare for. Are you sure you want to go?"
How can mom ask that? Of course I'm sure. I'm tired of hiding and want to go someplace where we don't have to pretend. That party is the only opportunity for me to freely love mom in front of others and I don't care what I see. The truth is, I'm excited about the party and don't pay much attention to her warning. It really can't be all that shocking, can it?
I look into deeply into our shared green eyes. "I'm sure, mom."
She smiles as she says, "Go wait in the car. I'm going to grab a bottle of wine and I'll be right behind you."

We are at Gretta's house and mom wasn't kidding about the lack of neighbor's. The only things I've seen in the past mile are trees and a dirt road with a few bumps. Her house is at the end of the dirt road and mom had to open a gate to get this far. It was a combination lock and no way to get through without the combinations. It was set closer to the nearest neighbor, which means anyone that gets lost will go back.
There are a lot of cars here and I'm a little shocked by what I see. I count at least a dozen as the sun starts to set and know it's too late to turn back now. We have to park pretty far back, but at least we can walk like lovers and not have to worry about anyone knowing who we are to each other.
