I shot to my feet, hurriedly buttoning my shirt. James shot to his feet, too, pulling on his clothes.
"Why is this a problem?"
"Because he's usually with his friend, and I don't need them ganging up on you." James nodded silently, buttoning his jeans. I looked down and realized I'd missed a few buttons of my own, but it was too late to fix them. I quickly took out the braids, not wanting my son to see them. A hand banged on the front door. I rushed down the stairs, took a final glance behind me to make sure James was decent, then swung the door open. "What?" I growled. Sure enough, Mark stood in the doorway with Luke in tow. Whatever he was going to say was obviously lost when he took me in. His eyes grew wide, and I heard Luke cough.
"I just-" I put up a hand to stop him.
"I don't really care, right now. Get out of my way." Mark blinked and took a step back, bumping into Luke. I turned and gave James a bright smile. "Thank you. I had fun." He smirked, then leaned down and gave me a very intense kiss that left me panting.
"Anytime, baby girl. Give me a call when you're ready." I waved, watching him retreat into his truck. I bit my lip, regretting answering the phone.
"Baby girl?" I sighed, shooting the boys a glare.
"I don't want to hear it. I was this close to finally having a moment with someone and you had to show up and ruin it!" I shut the door and shoved past them both, heading back to the house. They followed me to the kitchen.
"What do you mean close? You didn't do anything?" I turned on my heel.
"Are you kidding me? What does it matter? I'm your mother!" Mark scowled.
"Exactly! So why are you acting like a needy slut all of a sudden? Ever since Jess set you up on that date you're different." I gaped at Mark, and Luke just glanced between us both, wide eyed.
"A needy slut? Since when is holding back 25 years of pent up sexual frustration turn you into a slut? So what if I want to get laid? You can't tell me you've never had sex!" Mark opened his mouth, but I interrupted. "The summer of your second year on swim you and Alexis had sex on the pool deck. Don't fuck with me, mister." Mark's face turned a deep red and Luke slapped a hand over his mouth to hide a laugh.
"You had sex with Alexis? Bro, gross." Mark whipped around and shoved Luke.
"Back off, dude. You were gunning for her, too."
"Yeah, but I never had sex with her."
"Sure, but you did fuck Megan. And you knew we were dating. That was last month, not high school."
"So what? She obviously liked me more than you." I began to feel panic rise as their voices got louder. Mark and Luke hadn't ever fought in front of me before, and I wasn't used to this.
"Hey boys, let's calm down." I put a hand on both of their shoulders, bringing their attention back to me.
"You know," Mark scoffed. "If you didn't start acting like this, ma, Luke wouldn't have done that shit."
"Fuck off, Mark. Don't bring your mom into this." Luke took a step towards Mark.
"Why? Don't want me to tell her how sexy you think she looks in a bikini? Or how you had to jack off when you saw her in her underwear?" Luke's eyes narrowed.
"Like you didn't do the same thing." I gulped, trying to step between them.
"Guys, please, let's just take a second."
"At least I had the balls to fuck Alexis and Megan. You don't even have the courage to say anything to my mom." This wasn't going anywhere good.
"Yeah? Then why did I make her cum on the couch last night?" Luke growled, getting in Mark's face. I ended up sandwiched between the two, my hands covering my mouth in shock.
"What?" Mark's brows furrowed.
"That's right. I have bigger balls than you do, and I did something about it. Like this." Luke gripped my forearm and pulled me to him, his other hand pulling my chin up for a kiss. I let out a surprised squeak against his mouth. Mark ripped Luke off of me, then landed a punch on his jaw.
"Mark!" I reached for his arm, trying to stop him. He threw me off of him and I fell back, hitting my head on the kitchen counter.
"Shit." Both boys stopped and rushed over.
"Ma, are you okay? I'm so sorry." I groaned, seeing stars.
"Is there any blood? Mark, look for blood." I felt a sting of pain as he touched the back of my head.
"No blood."
"You guys need to calm down." I huffed, blinking away the tears that formed.
"Okay, ma."
"We will." I peered up into two sets of concerned eyes.
"Luke, that was really inappropriate." He frowned.
"I don't care if you're Mark's mom. You're a beautiful woman and I'm into you, Lou." I sighed, shaking my head, then wincing as the room spun.
"What did you mean about cumming on the couch?" Mark asked, gently rubbing the back of my head. Luke laughed softly.
"You're not going to believe me."
"Try me."
"Or don't." I peeped, my face on fire. Mark shot me a glare, then turned back to Luke.
"She had a dildo inside her." Mark's eyebrows raised as he looked at me, then back to Luke. Luke nodded. "I know, right? But you can guess who gave it to her."
"Jess." Mark groaned. I couldn't believe they were discussing this like I wasn't there.
"Yeah, so I got a little handsy and, well, she liked it. A lot." I buried my face in my hands and groaned.
"I told you to stop."
"Yeah, well, your hips said keep going." Luke stood and grabbed a pack of frozen peas from the freezer. "Here. I'm sorry for freaking you out, but I'm not sorry for kissing you." I accepted the peas and placed the bag on my head, meeting his heated stare.
"While we're at it with the confessionals," We both looked at Mark. "What the hell are you wearing, ma?" I looked down. The shirt was half open, my breasts trying to spill out from between the buttons. My miniskirt had ridden up, barely hiding the lace tucked between my legs, and the thigh highs were slightly torn from pulling them on in a rush. I let out a breath of defeated laughter.
"He said he was into it." I sighed, playing with my now loose curls. "I had braided pigtails earlier." Both boys groaned, clearly picturing it.
"Why would you-, oh wait," Luke started.
