That weekend Jim and his mother had decided to go shopping during the day, then take in a movie. It was going to be a full day, and his first 'date' with his mother. He was feeling proud and excited. Even though he was eighteen and good looking, he hadn't had many girlfriends, and although he did have a current one, she wasn't anything special to him, just someone to be with occasionally. Something just never seemed to work out for him in the girlfriend department.
For some reason, spending the day alone with his mother and acting like they were dating gave him a special thrill. He couldn't define it, but he looked forward to it. She was attractive enough and young enough looking to pass for his older girlfriend. His mother had kept herself in good condition by playing tennis, swimming, bicycling, and not eating too much fatty or starchy food. As a matter of fact, she preferred vegetarian meals, and after a while, no one noticed that there wasn't any meat in a meal.
On Saturday, Jim got up early, took a short stroll around the neighborhood, still sleepy and with a hint of fog hugging the ground. He broke into a short jog, just enough to break a sweat, then returned home to a warm shower. When he finished, he put on clean shorts and a polo shirt and went downstairs for breakfast. Julia was still dressing, so he fixed himself some coffee and toast.
He was sitting at the table flipping idly through the paper when his mother came in. She was wearing tight white shorts and a lemon colored top that molded to her body and hung across her bare shoulders from thin spaghetti straps. High heeled sandals and a straw hat with dried flowers completed her outfit.
"Gosh, you look great, Mom."
"You don't look so bad yourself. My handsome young date."
They both laughed and Jim poured her a cup of coffee. They sat across from each other, smiling and talking about where they would go, what they would see. Soon they were ready to go, and Jim watched the figure of his mother as she strolled toward the door. Her butt looked good in the tight shorts, and her legs were long and slim. She moved gracefully, and he liked the way her hips swung. His heart swelled in his chest as he watched her soft wavy hair bouncing on her shoulders.
Sitting in the car, Jim got an even better view of his mother's tan legs, and the way her breasts moved in the clingy top as she manipulated the steering wheel. He resisted the urge to reach a hand out to rub her bare thigh. She smiled at him and rolled down her window, letting the wind ruffle through her hair. It was a gorgeous day, and Jim felt good.
