This is my entry in the Earth Day Story Contest. It is a story meant to honor all forms of love, but beware, it is also about erotic love between a son and his mother. It is your free will to read or peek. Happy Spring~~~~
After all that has happened, I've almost forgotten how I came to be in the right place and the right time for my mother to become my true desire...and my lover. Never was there a time in my life when I didn't dearly love her. But with this we went through a rip in the fabric of our lives together, and well, it wasn't ever going to be the same again.
**********************************
I had left for work on a Sunday afternoon. The bright yellow Forsythia bush next to our driveway was in full gala, but blocking my view. There were kids out in the streets again, shooting hoops and playing around. I drove through our neighborhood taking in the nice late sunshine, glad the days were lengthening after another long winter. I was ready to immerse myself in the bustle of our very popular restaurant, me being part of the wait staff there making fabulous, well earned money. It was good to put St. Pat's and Easter behind, with their specific kinds of craziness and crowds, and I looked forward to the summer tourists, their casual vacation attitudes and their wallets.
But upon arrival I realized that I had made an error in writing down my schedule, and lo and behold, I had an unexpected night off. I wasn't too disappointed and since I was already downtown, I strolled out into the beautiful spring evening and on over to a bar that I liked where you could sit outside. There was a blush of pink in the West and the air smelled great. But right away as I approached the outdoor patio, I spied a small group, including my old girlfriend, and I wasn't into that scene.
So on to the next few spots...and several drinks later, I decided to save my money and headed home.
I lived in the daylight basement apartment of my family's old house, which was my mom's now, after our dad had split many years ago. My sister actually lived here, too, but was away for a business conference back east.
When I pulled into the driveway, I couldn't help but notice a beautiful brand new Camaro out by the curb. My mom probably had company, so I walked down around to the side stairs and came in that way. Maybe she would have a little fun for a change, I was thinking...she sure deserved it. Unless she was with a girlfriend, but somehow I had a feeling this was a date.
I was getting myself a beer from the fridge when a carton of milk tipped out of the door and managed to soak my crotch and legs. Damn. I hated to have the sticky milk on my skin all night, so after getting out of that mess, I threw on my sweats, tip-toed upstairs and snuck into the bathroom for a quick shower.
We lived in an older model, split level house. It was rather retro and spread out into many rooms. It had a pretty nice view of the city, too. There weren't enough bathrooms, but we were a small family unit these days and got by.
The hot steamy water felt good, even though I hadn't even broken a sweat that night so far. I was feeling that usual combination of lonely and horny, since my girlfriend had ditched me a few months back. I jerked off twice a day whether I was in a relationship or not, though, often while in the shower if my mom was off at work. But tonight, she was probably right in the next room, her bedroom.
As I started to think about that I was getting an erection. My mom might be getting laid. It was sort of an arousing thought, but still I wasn't sure how I felt about it. She was a very beautiful woman, inside and out. I thought she was very sexy, and so did all of my friends, but I had never gone there...not even in my fantasies. We had always been very close and had always gotten along, no fights.
I turned off the water and got out, standing in the steam, still sporting a semi erection. I had the radio on very low, but I turned it off and stood there listening. I was still fairly horny. There were soft voices coming from her room and it sounded like they might be having sex because the bed squeaked, and I was so lit up now that my senses were heightened. I was very curious and practically stopped breathing so I could listen.
I heard a man's voice but couldn't make out any words. I was by far too curious, and strangely aroused now, to stop myself from what I did next. I turned out the bathroom lights and slowly cracked the door ajar. There was a small hall of closets separating me from my mother's room, but the smell of sex reached me on the cooler flow of air and I quietly breathed the luring scent.
