I wrote this chapter for my series, but I reached a point where I felt I had to reign in the characters. I had a bit too much coffee to drink, and came up with some wild ideas. I decided to go a different direction with the series, but thought some of you would enjoy reading this.

Spinal Meningitis is No Joke Ch9 - DISCARDED
I awoke in a blind panic. Oh, God! How long had I been out this time? I was in a strange room, surrounded by unfamiliar furniture. My heart was hammering in my chest and I struggled for breath as I sat up and whipped my head around. I saw my mother's face, then. She looked concerned as she stepped back from the couch. I had nearly head-butted her when I sat up. It finally registered that I was home, in our living room. I vaguely recalled falling asleep on the couch.
My breathing gradually slowed, and I looked at my watch. It was a little after eight in the morning. I was still dressed in cargo shorts and a long t-shirt from the night before. My mom saw that when I sat up and she whispered, "Oh, good, you're already dressed. We won't need to bother Leanne, then."
I was a little confused. She was clearly dressed to go out. She had her purse over her shoulder, her cell phone in one hand and her keys in the other. She knelt to put my socks on my feet, giving me an eyeful of her lacy bra down the front of her blouse. Despite my morning wood and the delectable cleavage in front of me, I really had to go to the bathroom. When I whispered, "I really need to use the restroom," she whispered back, "Use mine."
I relieved myself quickly, washed my hands and face, and ran my wet hands through my hair quickly to make it presentable. I still didn't feel fully awake as we walked out the front door. In the car, I finally asked, "Where are we going, anyway?"
"Oh, just grabbing coffee with some friends." I don't drink coffee, so I puzzled over that one for a bit.
Wait . . . last night she had said something about having someone over for coffee . . . LAST NIGHT! Oh, my GOD! It all came back in a rush. I had fucked my mother in her gorgeous ass last night! Wow, I was really not awake before that realization hit. I slowly looked over at my mother, calmly driving along. She glanced over at me and did a double-take when she saw my face.
"Are you alright, Joshua? You look like you just saw a ghost."
"Sorry, Mom, I was still...I just remembered last night. Are you okay?"
"Mmm. Much better than okay. You were absolutely amazing last night."
"Thanks. You were...wow. You were absolutely unbelievable. I can't believe how sexy my mother is." She smiled brightly, keeping her eyes on the road. I finally looked down at the satellite navigation and saw the little map there. We weren't that far away. East Lavender...oh! That was where Sarah, Heather and Charlene lived.
"So, who are we meeting for coffee this morning?" I asked.
"Well, it's Jeannie and Heather, but it's a little complicated. Hold on, we're almost there." We pulled onto East Lavender. It was a nice neighborhood, with lots of flowering trees on either side of the street. Mom slowed the car and gently pulled up to the curb in front of the house. She turned off the engine and turned to me.
"Jeannie called me from the hospital parking lot, asking if she could come over for coffee. That's our code now; she was telling me she needed her 'Joshua fix.' Since Leanne and Beth were still home, that was a problem. So I called Heather and asked if Jeannie and I could drop by for coffee. Heather said that would be nice. She doesn't know, yet, that it's code for anything." She looked thoughtful for a moment, and then burst out, "Oh! I don't think I even mentioned I was bringing you along. Sorry, I was trying to get something worked out in a hurry."
Just then, a small pickup truck approached from the opposite direction and pulled into the driveway, parking next to the Corvette that was already parked there. Jeannie got out of the truck, still wearing her maroon scrubs. Her long, dark hair was pulled back in a ponytail, and she was visibly nervous. She looked just the way she had the first time I saw her. Mom and I got out of the car and walked up to the front door to join her. Jeannie pressed the doorbell and then smiled nervously at us. "Good morning," she said softly.
My mom smiled at her and said, "Good morning, Jeannie. It's so good to see you again."
Before I could get a word in, the door opened and Heather smiled out. Her smile disappeared and her eyes opened wide when she saw me. "Oh! I'm so sorry, I didn't realize Josh was coming with you." She was clutching her bathrobe at the neck. Her hair fell around her face in unruly curls.
My mom spoke up. "I'm sorry; I just realized as we pulled up that I hadn't mentioned it. It's okay, though, just a casual coffee with friends, Heather. Don't bother getting all dressed up. We just appreciate you letting us come over this morning."
Heather nodded and let us in, then. My mom gave Heather a big hug and a kiss on her cheek. I gave her a smile and hugged her as well. "So good to see you, Josh," Heather whispered in my ear. I gave her a soft kiss on her neck and whispered back, "I've missed you."
Heather's eyes shot open at that, and over her shoulder my mom gave me a warning look. Okay, I would let her handle this. I gave Jeannie a big hug, and she squeezed me tightly. I smiled at her and as we all walked to the dining room table I realized that my sunburn was no longer bothering me. Heather pulled the belt of her robe tightly around her waist, which only served to emphasize her enormous breasts. She got out four mugs and started to pour coffee. I cleared my throat.
"Sorry, Heather. I actually don't like coffee. Could I have some juice or ice water?"
"Oh, that's right," Heather said, "Let me see what else we have." She brought out two mugs for Mom and Jeannie, who began adding cream and sugar. Heather returned to the kitchen, opening the refrigerator and bending over to peer inside. I couldn't help but look at her fine bottom draped in that robe. My dirty mind immediately went into the gutter. Hers was the only ass of the three that I hadn't fucked.
I shook my head to clear it, and got up to join Heather in the kitchen. She turned as I approached. "Is apple juice okay?" she asked.
"Apple juice sounds great," I replied, smiling down at her. She poured me a mug of juice and we joined Jeannie and my mom at the table. The three of them made small talk, but Heather, Jeannie and I were all nervous. Only Mom seemed calm. I sipped my juice and wondered what her plan was.
After she finished her coffee, my mother stood up and stretched. "Well, this was really nice. Thanks again, Heather, for having us over. I really need to get to my office, though." Heather and Jeannie both stood up, and then my mother looked over at me. "You know, there's no need for Joshua to go with me. Would you mind if I left him here with you? I can pick him up on my way home, in" she looked at her watch, "about two hours? Would that be alright?"
Heather's eyes lit up at that. I'm sure mine did too. But then Jeannie stunned us all. She grabbed my mom's arm and said, "Jennifer, no! You really should stay."
We all turned and looked at her in shock. Heather let out a strangled "What?!?" before covering her mouth.
"Please, everyone sit down," Jeannie continued. I realized that I hadn't quite stood up before she had spoken. Heather slowly sat, as did my mother. Jeannie looked across the table at Heather. "Jennifer has known for weeks what was going on at the hospital. She never said anything, and she trusted us with her son."
Heather's eyes were wild, looking around the table at all of us in disbelief. To be fair, I couldn't believe what was happening either. I felt like I was trapped in another vivid, surreal dream as I watched Jeannie stand up and pull the top of her scrubs over her head. She untied the drawstring and let the scrub pants drop to the floor. She was wearing a tiny lacy bra and a matching thong.
