I had already poured what I thought was Mother's entire stash of bottles down the drain, dinner was in the oven for about another five minutes, and I was just finishing up the final details with the gym on the phone. Gabrielle Martin stepped past Mother and came to me with her arms stretched out.
"You are only here for a few weeks and you're already joining the gym." She asked with a smirk on her face.
"It's for Mom." I responded. "She wants to get back in shape."
Gabrielle took me in her arms. "Well you look wonderful, and you look great too Mom." She said.
It's one of the things I loved about Gabrielle, she was extremely kind. She took off her coat and as Mom took it out of her hand, I remembered another thing I loved about her, that ridiculous physique. For as laid back, sensitive and loving as she was, she took meticulous care of her body. I don't think there was any doubt in either of our minds that she had come here tonight so we could fuck. Yeah, there were other forms of catching up to do, but the sexual chemistry we had built in the past was absolutely amazing.
"I always wondered why you didn't end up together." Mom said, as her heels clicked across the floor on the way to the closet to hang up Gabrielle's coat. "You are such an adorable couple."
"I would have never let him go but he insisted that a long distance relationship would never work." Gabrielle said.
I gave a quick smile and shoulder shrug that was supposed to show how flattered I was, and then responded. "Gabrielle was so perfect I was just afraid I would get my heartbroken."
The timer on the oven went off and I went into the kitchen to finish up. Mom came in and started setting the table as Gabrielle began telling us about nursing school, the internship she was hoping for, and her trip to Japan. She said she was considering going there for a couple years after graduation to teach English. One of her friends had done it and said it was the experience of a lifetime.
I noticed myself being torn. I really liked Gabrielle but I couldn't see how things between Mom and I would work out if she was in the picture. Of course I would love to have both of them but it was illogical to wish for and most likely an impossible scenario. However, if I played my cards right, you never know.
"Time to eat ladies." I said, as I finished putting everything on the table.
Gabrielle must have been hungry because she hurried to the kitchen and sat down immediately. Mom walked a bit slower wincing with every step and reaching down to touch her sore bottom every time she imagined having to sit on a wooden chair for the full length of a meal.
"Maybe, I'll just..." Mom started, but I interrupted her.
"No. Come join us." I said, as I took her by the hand and led her to one of the chairs. "We would really enjoy your company."
"Yes. You need to stay." Gabrielle said.
Mom sat down reluctantly. She squirmed and winced again as the hard surface attacked the tender parts of her backside. To my surprise Gabrielle caught it right away. Her eyes became wild as they shot back and forth between me and mother.
"You spanked your own mother?" She asked, with a curious look on her face.
"He does it for my own good." Mother responded, as she poured herself a glass of wine.
"I thought we talked about..." I started, as I looked at the bottle but Mom interrupted me.
"He thinks I drink too much." Mom added.
"Well it sure doesn't look like you are trying to change that perception anytime soon." Gabrielle added, with a smirk.
"Who's hungry?" I asked, as I picked up the spatula.
"Wait. This is just too interesting." Gabrielle responded. "So do you just discipline her or have you... you know?"
"Fucked me?" Mom asked. "Not yet. So far he's just a tease."
I dished up a plate for each of them. "Hurry up and eat or I'll turn you both over my knee." I said, with a wink.
"He is one hell of a lover." Gabrielle said, seemingly forgetting that I was sitting right there as she took a fork and started to dig in. " I've always known that he loved someone else but the sex was too good to give up. I had no clue it was his own mother."
"Is that true Peyton?" Mom asked, as she finally took a bite of her food.
"Of course I love you Mom." I answered. "I gave up my ski trip and came here to take care of you. We are gonna get you fixed up and then I'm going back. But first I'm going to eat this food and then I'm gonna fuck the shit out of Gabrielle."
They both looked at each other and snickered. I could tell it turned them both on a lot. Mom reached over and touched Gabrielle's hand and it surprised me to see the electricity that shot between them as they looked into each other's eyes. For the first time it dawned on me that they may end up fucking and I may be left holding my dick in my bedroom again.
I dished myself up another serving of dinner. I had felt somewhat in control when I got here but all of a sudden I was beginning to realize that I was the one that needed her. I gave up my vacation and an amazing girlfriend, not because Mother needed me but because she was controlling this entire situation. She had controlled me my whole life by playing the victim and for some reason I seemed to like it.
Mom poured herself another glass of wine. She looked at both of us.
