THIS IS A STORY OF FICTION. ALL CHARACTERS ARE OVER 18. ENJOY..

Heading downstairs for dinner, the air in the hotel was intoxicating. People from all walks of life, engrossed in their own versions of enjoyment, a cascade of laughter and joy abounded. Holding my sons' arm, the looks we'd periodically notice upon us, made me blush. If they only knew, right? Walking through the lobby, there were a couple restaurants I'd had my eye on. As we walked into one, the ambience was telling. Dimly lit, romantic, the seating, situated accordingly, perfect for Parker and I.
"Good Evening," the host began, greeting us.
"Table for 2?"
"Yes, but we like sitting side by side, not across from each other," I commented, looking up admiring Parker. Yes, he's overweight, but hey, every girl that's turned him down, well that's their loss, right? Leading us to a table near the back of the restaurant, looking around, there were other couples enjoying their own dining experience. "Goodness honey, its' enchanting in here," I softly mused.
"I guess it is," Parker quipped, as I felt his hand find my leg. Normally, I'd remind him of people possibly knowing us seeing his hand under my dress, but since anyone here would only know me, I didn't react, other than opening my legs a little and allow his hand to find my inner thigh. "Behave, young man. Remember, we need to nourish ourselves, too. I'm starving."
Right on cue, our server approached our table. "Sir, Ma'am. My name is Milton and I'll be taking your orders tonight. May I start you with a drink?"
Surprising me, Parker spoke, "She'll have a MaiTai and I'll just have water."
"Very well, sir. I'll be back to take your order," the server stated.
After he left, I turned to my son. "I'm impressed. You actually knew what I like to have." Placing my hand on top of his, I intimately began scraping my fingers along the top of his hand. With my other hand, I did the same to his neck. "Parker, you're too good to me. I'm your mother, why did you have to be my son?" I quietly stated, a loving smile on my face.
"Why? For THIS very reason," Parker surmised, as his fingers began a slow process along my legs.
"Sweetheart, let's wait until we get back to our room. You know this gets me going," I exclaimed, seductively. "Don't worry. I know what you want and, frankly, I want it too. But all I ask, is you not be so boisterous."
"I get it mom, I do. But dang, for your age, I can't help myself," Parker admitted.
"Good. I expect you to pound me through our mattress this weekend," surprised, even to myself, of the leniency of my words.
As we were sitting there, talking about us, the weekend, the reunion, I heard my name, once again, from across the room.
"Maddie! Oh my God!," I'd wearily register. Walking briskly to our table were 2 people I'd known all to well in school.
"Jeremy," I'd said curtly, the past suddenly brought back the forefront. "And Beth, well, well, well." Seeing them two; the son of a bitch who promised me the world; and the girl who he cheated on me, with, standing in front of me.
"How are you?," Beth started, unaware of my condescension.
"I'm well, just having dinner with my son," I'd retorted, with deliberateness. Looking back and forth between Parker and I, the disbelief that I was with my son had them thinking.
"Your son? No husband?" Was asked, unwittingly.
"Husband. Business Trip," I flatly admitted.
"Ohhhh I get it," Beth said, that stupid smirk still prevalent. "So he's hanging out with mom all weekend," now staring at Parker.
Having removed his hand from my inner thigh a few moments earlier, I was appreciative of the respect he had for me. Having come full circle since our first time, the night of his senior prom, the young man sittting next to me, surprised me, albeit rudely, by dismiss my unwanted guests. Seeing how uncomfortable I alreasy was, I'm grateful, in retrospect, he did help.
"Excuse me," Parker chimed in, within a tinge in his voice, "My mom and me would like to enjoy our dinner, if you don't mind." The way he said it, and the utter speechlessness from them two, caused me to inwardly chuckle.
"Umm, yea, yea... sure," Beth had said, while Jeremy, clearly age not doing him justice, stood there, stone faced, having not had the chance to speak. As soon as the left, out server returned.
"Are we ready to order?," Milton asked, pen ready, for duty.
"I'll have the duck a l'orange," I announced, feeling Parkers' hand return to where it had been. Re-opening my legs just a tad, I felt his hand put the bottom of my dress over my legs. Thankful for the long tablecloth adorning our table, I did hope he'd not be so non-discreet in public.
"And you, sir," He asked, awaiting my son's response.
"I'll have the 14 oz. t-bone steak, with baked potato, and a side of shrimp," Parker stated.
Milton, after recording our orders replied, "We'll get these ready for you." Then, left.
"Parker, sweety," I began, after we were alone. "I'm concerned about your.."
"Weight," he immediately cut in.
"Yes, honey. Your weight. You're only 19. I'd like to see you get in shape," I quietly offered, concern in my voice. "Your father quit trying, years ago to lose weight and now.....," I quietly said, looking away.
"Mom," He exclaimed, "Can we not talk about this right now?"
Seeing the frustration in his voice, I dropped the subject.
*********
After we ate and received our bill, I asked the host to apply it to our final bill, giving him our room number. As we left, Parker took my hand.
"Wanna go for a little walk?" I'd ask Parker, now comfortably fed. "I see the rain has let up a little."Heading for the exit, we noticed it was, now dark. "We'll stay close. I just wanted to walk off a little bit of our dinner, before we work the rest of it off, later." With a smile on my face, I looked up at him. Pecking him on his cheek, We left the hotel.
Holding our umbrella over us, Parker had his other arm around me. Slowly we walked as people passed by enjoying their evening. Giving a slight shiver, Parker stopped and removed his coat. Giving it to me, I wrapped it over my body.
"Here mom," Parker said, as I took the umbrella. "You're shivering."
"You're such the gentieman, honey," I tenderly gestured. "Seems like someone is try to shmooz a lady into his bed."
"Guilty," he admitted. After seeing I stopped shivering, he took the umbrella from me, and we proceeded with our walk.
"BUZZ!! BUZZ!"
The sensation buzzing from my purse, I realized my cell was going off. Reaching in, I retrieved my phone.
"It's your dad," I said, as I gave him the phone. "Talk to your father honey. I just want to enjoy being with you."
Pressing the button, Parker impatiently began, "What now, dad?" Astonished by his abruptness, I squeezed his arm. "She's right here dad. We're taking a walk right now. We just ate dinner."
Hearing how uncouth and standoffish he was being, I was becoming undone by his behavior. "Parker, put it on speaker," I sternly said. "We'll talk about your behavior, later."
Now on speaker, we slowed our pace so I could focus.
"Hi, honey," I began, looking harshly at my son. "How's your business trip faring?"
For 10 minutes, John explained how his team had several meetings scheduled on Friday and Sarurday with hopes of finalizing a deal by Sunday.
"Well you'll do fine, John. I'm sure that bonus WILL be big and we'll celebrate at home. But don't get cocky, you STILL have to finalize the agreement."
After bantering around a few more minutes, Parker rudely jumped back in to the conversation. "Look dad. Mom and me are heading back to the motel. She'll call you tomorrow. She is tired."
Not evening bothering with a "Goodbye" or letting me wish his father a good night or "I love you", he just ended the call.
Immediately I went on defense. "What's gotten into you, young man?" Our steps, now back to normal. "You are being awfully rude to your father and, frankly, I'm getting pretty sick and tired of it."
"You said you weren't going to allow interruptions mom, remember?" his voice, more pointed.
"My word Parker," I said, flabbergasted. "He's my husband. I can't just ignore his calls or texts. And besides, we're not in our room, we're out here taking in the cool air."
"Well, I just want to get back to our room, mom. YOU did say, I couid have this, (looking down at my midsection), as much as I wanted, as long as we weren't involved in the Reunion activities."
"Parker, you really.." I tried to say, before he boldly cut me off, again.
"No more talk, mom. I want back between your legs."
"Alright, sweetheart," I submissively stated, as we made our way back to the hotel.

Once we were in our room, Parker immediately began undressing.
