For years it had built up; this was no new development. Sure, I had been kicked out of their home when I turned 18, but I had not witnessed such behavior before. My step-father Mal, 48, had always had a taste for the bottle. Now that I was out on my own, he seemed to be 'stewed' every weekend like clockwork. This didn't help the businesses that he was managing (a restaurant, a dollar bargain store, convenience stores, etc.) They had been worth $10 million just a year ago when inherited by my mother but now were only worth a fraction of that, perhaps $1 million.
My long suffering mother Sue, 39, was a true loyal soldier, putting up with his weaknesses. She often would have to jump in to the fray, covering for her hubby when he was 'out of it'. Though she was supposed to be a woman of leisure at this point (after the huge inheritance), his mismanagement had forced her to work, on the average, up to 50 hours per week.
When he forced me to leave home when I was 18 plus one week, he said 'it was for my own good.' Well, with only a high school diploma, there weren't that many good jobs out there, in the Pacific Northwest. Somehow, I ended up as a lumberjack, of all things. It did wonders for my physique, being the hardest work conceivable, but it was fraught with peril. The very day I was going to visit them, our helicopter flew lower than they were supposed to; I was almost hit by a swinging conifer freshly cut and being airlifted off a hillside.
Every time that I had visited the good parents, it had been because my mom had asked me to do a 'mini intervention' to try and get her husband back on the straight and narrow. I had done my best, with lectures, subtle and not so subtle, about the great home, solid businesses, and wonderful wife that he had, which was being put at risk by the dreaded bottle. Instead of coming around, he got more and more resentful, finally concluding that mom and I were in cahoots (which we were, but only to help and not a conspiracy.) Our mistake was in assuming that this was an illness and the business losses a fluke. In reality, he liked getting tipsy and staying that way. As for the businesses, sad to say, he was having a field day using their assets, both monetary and human (his plain 20 year old secretary always seemed out of the office when he was...)
My mother and I had always had a close bond. As an only child, she had basically raised me by herself. As her husband got more and more distant, with his philandering and carousing, his interest and abilities in their marital bed went from mediocre to non-existent. He looked at my mom from their first day together as an economic conquest, due to her familial wealth, and not a romantic one. Mom had always had a dazzling figure. Some of her relatives even wanted her to try Hollywood. She might well have made a splash there, but she was only five foot one, too small for modeling and legitimate stage work. It was a pity, too: with her incredible 36D-23-36 figure, she could have been the queen of all cinema, up to and including triple-XXX.
The first time I visited home after having turned 18, it had been six months. My mother had asked me to intervene on her hubby. I rushed over, only to find that he had to fly to Reno for a convention. A call by my mom found that his homely secretary was also going to 'represent the company' there.
Mom met me at the door in her simple green houserobe, padding around on her bare smooth feet. Though covered up almost from head to toe, she still looked gorgeous to me. Our mother/son kiss at the door lingered so long I was afraid I was going to wear out my lips. I pulled her fabulous body, concealed under that robe, to me. As we kissed, knowing that he was not around AND that he was cheating on mom, we both had a perfectly valid reason to do almost anything.
I would never forget it. After the kiss ended, mom kept herself fused to my lower half. Looking up at her six foot two son, blue eyes shimmering, she said:
Mom: "I am so appreciative that you could come over on such short notice. I know it's not the most pleasant drive, a winding mountain highway with our famous Oregon morning fog. God, that job of yours has done wonders for you, honey." [She straightened my hair, then used her other hand to follow the sweep of my physique from broad shoulders to chiseled arms. She actually cooed with eyes closed after squeezing my bulging biceps.]
Mom: "You have become quite a 'hunk' since leaving your old broken down mommy. It's a good thing I AM your mom, because otherwise, feeling those big muscles of yours, my nipples would be popping, and I might be getting a bit damp in the southern regions." [She came up to me and gave me another kiss. It was even hotter than the first one. The thinness of her robe and my cotton shirt let me feel those erect nipples of hers...oh mama.]
Me: "Mom, a part of me is going to hate myself in the morning, but I have to remind you that you are my mother and I am your son. Besides, you are a married woman. How would it look for me to have 'relations' with my own married mom?" [She was stunned that I was such a 'good little boy'. All of the training she gave me as a youth now, ironically, was coming back to haunt her.]
So here I was. I had driven a hazardous road some 50 miles to give my step-father a lecture for his own good. Now, he was in Nevada cheating on my mom, my mom was rubbing up against me wanting it, and I had to decide what to do. If I had any sense, society be damned, I should have grabbed that gorgeous mom of mine and drilled her good till the rooster crowed. I was afraid I'd be taking advantage of an obviously distraught, and possibly tipsy, mother. So, I said I would use my old nautilus machine (I had never had a chance to come and pick it up after the forced move-out), take a nap, and then drag home. Mom was disappointed.
I was getting a fabulous workout, putting the bar higher and higher, benching about 400, when mom came with refreshments. She handed me my favorite, grape juice, and had an orange juice for herself. My juice was bitter; she said it was organic and I just wasn't used to 'real juice'.
I guess I should stop here and point out we were in a solarium, my weights were off in the far corner with no other furniture nearby. As a result, my mother had to sit on my lap, facing me.
So here I was, bare-chested, wearing only my workout shorts which I always kept in the car trunk, sitting on a weight-training bench. My supersexy mother, blonde hair, blue eyes, lovely face, incredible figure, was seated in my lap facing me. She made it crystal clear that she was incredibly horny and needed it 'bad'. In the face of that, I had shown moral correctness that surprised not only her but me also.
When she got up from my lap, there was a big damp spot on the right leg of my shorts where her robe had been pushed up as she sat. Mom was nice enough to give me another fresh 'organic' grape juice. Doing workouts, I could consume an almost infinite amount of fluids, so the drinks kept coming. I eventually had four 12 ounce glasses full. Each time she brought them in, I felt a little bit weaker, a little bit dizzier. I noted that I was getting real tired (from the trip perhaps) and had to stop. The last barbell curl I did was 40 pounds, which I couldn't complete; just an hour before I had curled 200.
Mom: "Sweetheart, you said that you are off this entire weekend. We still have half your clothes in your old room. I think you might be a little worn out from the workout and the long trip here. You might need help, but I can't help you all the way to your old room through the garage. Let me help you to my room; you can crash there and get whatever sleep you need."
I tried to talk but couldn't. I staggered to my feet and leaned on her as I dragged myself the few feet to her bedroom. Had I been sober, I could've looked thru the archway to the kitchen. There was the evidence. Welch's Grape Juice and some sweet red wine. I had imbibed a heavy dose of booze concealed by the grape juice. Together with the workout, my alcohol content must have been thru the roof.
I collapsed on the bed, with mom helping me drag myself to the middle. I turned on my back and was out, cold. Thirty minutes went by.
