[Author's Note: This story is becoming almost uncomfortably autobiographical. My mother had a brain tumor, inoperable with the technology of those long ago days, but the impact on her was much the same as we see in this story. So I'm getting uncomfortable. Let me know, Gentle Reader, if you like this and want me to continue. I don't think David and his mother will follow the same trajectory as Mom and I did, that is a story for another time. But it looks to me like they are heading down a dark path on which there are no U-turns allowed. Let's see, shall we?]
Interlude
"Okay, Sluterella," I thought, and that name he had given me made me smile, "now he knows. Are you really prepared to have your fucking
SON
do what you need to have done?"
"Who better, dumbass?" I asked myself, "Some slug like those men you've been dating? Like fucking George of the hands on the ass? At least David loves you."
"I know," I said to myself, "but Jesus, he's your SON!"
"But I can trust him," I said back, "and I'm on a dangerous road."
And that, of course, was the nub of it. This fucking disease was robbing me, bit by bit, of myself. Right now I seem to have plateaued. I haven't noticed any new expressions of it in a couple of months. But in many ways, that makes it even worse. Each day is borrowed, and I know the next symptom will appear eventually, and I'm terrified. Will my arm start flopping uncontrollably? My leg? Will I start drooling like Pavlov's dog after the bell rings? Will my eye droop?
"Oh, STOP IT!" is snapped at myself. "He loves you and will take care of you until it's time and then you'll just disappear from his life. So enjoy what you can."
Interlude
Finis
I didn't sleep but I did doze a little. It's easy to do when you're sexually sated, physically exhausted, and have a nipple in your mouth.
My mind is an interesting place.
I'm smart.
Oh, don't get me wrong. I don't
feel
smart. I'm not Sheldon Cooper with an eidetic memory or Erwin SchrΓΆdinger giving the world that cat that is both dead and alive, but I can ace a test without studying. It seems to me that I have an average memory when I'm trying to memorize the lyrics to a song, but the other guys in the band are amazed at how quickly I can do it. I guess, when you get down to it, it boils down to this - I've been told often enough, by people whose judgment I trust, that I'm smart, that I accept it.
But my mind is an interesting place, and as I woke, I knew what my first time "satisfying" Mom's need for sensation would look like. I knew it in full detail. I could almost see and feel how it would go.
And I got hard.
I didn't move when I heard the pattern of her breathing change and felt her stir. I just lay there, my mind working through the plan, looking for flaws or ways to improve it. I wanted my first time to set a bar that was very high, making me work hard to maintain standards. I love my mother very much and wanted to give her what she needed.
I didn't stir when I felt the bed move as she rolled out and padded into the bathroom.
In my mind I fixed a couple of details, ensuring her complete satisfaction.
I remained still when I felt her crawl back into bed, preceded by the faint scent of Listerine.
But she knew me too well.
"At least you didn't run screaming from the room when you had the chance," she said, little puffs of her warm, moist breath in my ear raising goosebumps on my body. As she spoke, well, as she breathed the words softly, her hand was trailing down my belly where she found my erection and held it.
"Would you like to know," I asked, concentrating on holding still, "how I'm going to make sure that you go to sleep tonight completely satisfied?"
I heard her breath catch and felt her squeeze my erection.
"Yes, please," she breathed into my ear.
I reached down, gently detached her hand from my cock, and lifted it to my lips. I kissed her fingers, making her smile, and then bit down on the tender web between her thumb and forefinger making her cry out and squirm.
I scooted around and rolled up onto my side, my hand propping my chin, and met her eyes.
"First," I said, brushing a few stray hairs away from her forehead with gentle fingertips, "I'm going to make love to you. It's going to be slow and gentle. If you need to fake it, I'm okay with that, but I think your body will respond even if you're not getting the full impact."
She started to say something but I stopped her with a finger to her lips.
"Then I'm going to send you out into the backyard, naked with my cum running down your thighs," I was deliberately being crude with my language, "and you're going to select a switch for me to use on you later tonight," I said, holding her eyes and enjoying the catch in her breath.
"Then we're going out for breakfast, you can dress but don't even think about underwear. You'll smell of sex and as the hostess seats us, if I'm lucky, other customers will turn and look and you'll be embarrassed. And then I'm going to enjoy the football games while you get the house spotless," I went on. "Oh. and did I mention you'll do your housework naked?"
"And then, at precisely 7:22 p.m., I'm going to give you the spanking of your life," I finished.
Her eyes were big by the time I finished.
And I could smell the impact I had on her.
I brushed an imaginary hair away from her face, holding her eyes.
"I'm going to take care of you," I said, my fingertips lightly brushing her cheek, "in every way you need."
She caught my hand and kissed the fingertips that had been brushing her skin so softly, "I believe you."
"Would you like to know a secret?" I asked, my lips touching the shell of her ear after I had covered her eyelids with soft butterfly kisses.
"Mmmmmm, please," she said softly, her head back and to the side, offering her throat to me.
"Mom, it scares me how much I
want
to do those things to you," I said.
"If it helps," she said, and her smile was an odd combination of pensive and happy, "it scares me too but that doesn't stop this," and she captured my hand and pulled it down to cover her pussy. I could feel how wet she was, her natural lubricants thick and warm on my finger.
When I started to speak it was her turn to shush me with a fingertip to her lips.
