My mother married my father upon learning she was pregnant, she told me years later. He supported her as best he could with his income from driving an 18-wheel truck. Then one mid-winter day, his truck jackknifed into a snowdrift by a highway in Minnesota. The accident left Mom widowed and 7 months pregnant at the tender age of 18. I was born the following spring.
By the time I turned 18 myself, Mom was 36. And what a hottie she was in her 30s! She was no Calista Flockhart, but no Camryn Manheim either. She had straight brown hair that flowed to the middle of her back. Or, if she pushed it in front of her, it would billow to her large, firm breasts, the tops of which would peek out from the blouses and dresses she wore around the house. From the moment I hit puberty, behind my locked bedroom door, on many a night between going to bed and falling asleep, I would wet my sheets while fantasizing about my own mother. But when I came of age, little did I suspect that soon my fantasies would come true.
A few weeks after my birthday, it was Mother's Day. I slept in that morning, as I often did on weekends. When I woke up to the sound of knocking on my door, I looked at my clock; it was nearly 11 AM. With bleary eyes I got up, put my robe on and answered the door. There stood Mom, wearing the sexiest black nightgown I had ever seen up to then, with spaghetti straps and a plunging neckline.
"Are you OK, Travis?" she asked. "You slept awful late this morning."
"Mom," I answered, "it's Sunday. When I don't have to wake up early, I tend not to."
"I know, hon. But this particular Sunday is Mother's Day. Surely you could have gotten up a LITTLE earlier to observe my special day with me?" She winked and smiled.
"Mom, I know how much you've sacrificed for me all these years, raising me right from the start as a single mom, and I am grateful for it all. But I'm at a loss this year as to how to show it. Every gift I can think of, I then realize I already got it for your birthday, or Christmas, or Mother's Day last year, or the year before, you name it."
"Well, this day is special in more ways than one. You see, I've watched you grow into a handsome young man, much like the ones written about in romance novels. And now...now I'm in love with you."
I was flabbergasted. "Did I just hear you say that you love me like a woman loves a man? Tell me I'm dreaming!"
"You're not dreaming, sweetheart. You heard right. I really do feel that way about you."
"Well, Mom...I do think about you all the time, especially at night when I rub myself against my sheets, but little did I think you'd have similar feelings toward me!"
"Well, I do, and now you're old enough that we can do something about it."
"Like what?"
