I was a sophomore in college when the pandemic hit, and the governor locked everything down. My classes went virtual. Fortunately, I was living at home at the time, so things didn't change too much. I spent a lot more time on my computer, in my bedroom. I also spent more time with my Mom. We got to know each other better.
A lot better, as it turned out.
One day, between classes and close to noon, I walked to the kitchen to make myself a turkey sandwich. I searched the refrigerator and found the mustard jar was empty. Darn. Mom had told me earlier that morning that she was going to the grocery store, so I figured I'd let her know we needed more mustard. I walked to her bedroom. Mom's room was on the other side of the house, at the end of the hallway. The door was open, just a bit, so I pushed it open, walked through, and called to her.
"Hey, Mom --"
I stopped talking and walking. My mouth dropped open.
So did Mom's.
She was completely naked, standing in the middle of her bedroom, staring at me.
My eyes swept up and down her body. I couldn't help it.
"Tommy!" she screamed, hands frantically trying to cover herself.
"Sorry, Mom!" I yelled in reply. I turned and ran out of the room, down the hallway, back to the kitchen.
I had just seen my Mom naked.
I'd never seen her naked before.
I put my hand on the refrigerator door to steady myself. I was kind of freaking out. Not just because I'd seen Mom 100%, completely naked, I mean like head-to-toe stark naked, but also because, well, she looked good.
She looked really good.
My dick was hard from thinking about it. Uncomfortably hard. It was pushing against my pants but cramped and bent to the side and wanting to stretch itself out.
Mom. Naked.
We weren't a prudish family, exactly, but we weren't the kind of family to let it all hang out, either. Mom was a private, modest person. She was attractive, but I couldn't recall her ever wearing something I'd call "sexy." Since her divorce from Dad, six years earlier, it had been just the two of us, in the house together, and I had never, ever seen Mom undressed.
Until now.
I thought about what I'd seen.
She had a great body. It felt weird to think that, but it was true. She was medium height, with a thin waist and full breasts. They sagged a little, which was normal, I guessed, for a woman in her 40s, but not too much. Her nipples were rosy and stood straight out. I couldn't get them out of my mind. Her legs were long and shapely. Mom wasn't a gym rat, but she kept herself in good shape, that was for sure.
But the thing I thought about most was her pussy.
Mom's pussy.
Actually, I hadn't seen her pussy at all. I'd seen this enormous dark brown bush. It covered everything.
It was like a jungle down there, to tell the truth.
I was kind of surprised. Mom was a tidy, orderly sort of person and it was kind of weird to think about this wild, unruly tangle of fur between her legs.
I'd seen plenty of other pussies, although with the lockdown it had been a while since I'd seen my last one. Most girls I'd fucked either shaved it off completely or kept a neat, little landing strip. One girl I knew got a wax job and she was proud to show it to me and man that sweet little thing was smooth. I think I spent half an hour kissing it and licking it before we fucked.
I'd never seen anything like Mom's wild bush. I couldn't get it out of my mind. I'd seen my Mom's pubic hair. Holy shit. It was wild to think about it. To be honest, I was a little disappointed. It had been so thick I hadn't seen any of her pussy. Not even a tiny bit of lip or clit or hood.
Now I'd never get a chance to see it. Mom was sure to keep her door closed from now on, to prevent that from happening again.
I wondered what her pussy looked like. I wondered if she had long delicious lips that dangled down or if she had one of those cute little pussies where everything was kind of tucked away.
I'd never know. It was disappointing.
I opened the refrigerator and made a turkey sandwich without mustard.
Later, I went back to my room and sat through two more classes on my computer. Then I did some homework assignments. By the time I was done it was getting late and it was close to dinner time. I wandered out from my room to the kitchen. Mom was there, pulling a casserole dish out of the oven. The rich smell of tomato sauce filled the room. She had cooked a lasagna.
She didn't say anything. It seemed like she was looking away from me. I set the table and tossed a green salad. We sat at the dinner table and started eating and neither of us said anything for a few minutes. At last, I spoke. I felt I had to break the silence.
"Mom, I'm sorry about this morning."
"It's OK," she said, haltingly. "You didn't know I was . . . you know. I should have shut the door."
"No," I said. "I should have knocked. I'm really sorry about that. I know it was . . . embarrassing."
"It was." She nodded. She looked up at me with a thin smile. "You've never seen your old Mom like that."
"No, that's for sure," I said. "It was a surprise. But, you know, you're not old."
"No?"
"Definitely not. You don't look old."
"I'm glad to hear that." She fiddled with her fork over her plate filled with lasagna.
"You look great, Mom. Really."
She laughed, at last. The awkward tension at the table broke, and I laughed, too. We laughed together. It was nice to see Mom laugh. She'd been alone for a long time since the divorce. I don't think she'd been on a date for a year. I encouraged her to date even though it was weird thinking about my Mom dating. But with her job, and me, and dealing with COVID-19, there was no chance to date. We were cooped up in the house alone together.
"Well," she said. "I'm glad you weren't horrified. You saw more of your Mom than you ever had today."
"Definitely not horrified," I said.
"So, you don't --" she paused before finishing.
"What?" I asked.
"You don't think badly of me?"
"What do you mean, 'badly'? Of course not. Why would I think that?"
"I don't know. It's just weird that you saw me, you know --"
"Naked?"
"Yeah," she said, and her eyes turned down to her plate.
"Mom, don't worry about it. It was weird. Yeah. But you look great." I was talking a mile a minute at this point and felt like I couldn't stop myself. "I mean, you look better than a lot of girls I know. Pretty awesome, actually. Although you do have --" I stopped myself.
"What?" Mom asked, looking up from her pasta and salad.
I shook my head. "Never mind."
"No, I want to know. What do I have?"
"It's embarrassing to say it."
"You can say it."
"I'd rather not."
"I want you to."
"Well, it's just," I responded. God, it was hard to talk about, but for some reason Mom seemed to want me to talk about it. "You're kind of . . . hairy. Down there."
"Oh!" she said, and she looked at me with an open mouth and wide eyes.
"Is that different from the girls you know?" she asked. Her eyebrows arched.
"Yeah," I said after a long pause.
"Tell me."
"Mom, it's a strange thing to talk about with your Mom."
"These are strange times, Tommy," she said. "Tell me. I'm curious. What's so different about me?"
"OK, you want to know," I said. "Most girls I know shave things . . . down there. They either shave it completely or keep a little landing strip. You know what a landing strip is?"
"Yes, Tommy," she said. "I know what a landing strip is. I'm not totally ignorant."
"I know you're not. I was just surprised --" I couldn't finish the thought.
"That your Mom was so . . . bushy?" She said and she laughed a little.
We both laughed and it helped break what otherwise was almost unbearable and awkward tension. I was talking with my Mom about her pussy and pubic hair. It was so weird. But -- I couldn't help it -- it was a huge turn-on, too. I was rock hard inside my pants and I was glad that Mom couldn't see the bulge beneath the table. I kept thinking about that jungle of dark hair and the unseen treasure that lay beneath it. God, it was arousing.
I'd never thought of my Mom this way. She was an attractive woman, but she was, you know, my Mom. You're not supposed to think of your Mom that way. But as I sat across the dinner table from her, I was thinking about her naked body -- her hot naked body -- and imagining what her pussy looked like under that deep, dark forest of fur.
"I guess I'm old-school," Mom said. "I've always had a thing about shaving my hair down there. I don't know why. I'm worried I might cut myself or something."
I waved my hand. "You don't need to worry about that. It's no big deal."
"No?" she looked at me. "How would you know?"
I got uncomfortable again.
"Well, I mean, it's like . . . I've done it."
"Done what?"
"I've . . . you know. I've done it for girlfriends." I paused again. "This is really awkward."
"You've shaved them?" Mom asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Wow," she said. "They let you do that." Mom smiled again. "That's a lot of trust. My talented son."
Now, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, and I don't pretend to be the smoothest guy with girls, although I do OK, but at that moment, with my Mom sitting across the table eating lasagna and talking about shaving pussies, the realization hit me, like a thunderbolt: my Mom was being flirty with me. We were having a conversation about her pussy hair, and it was suddenly obvious to me that she was enjoying it. Holy shit.
My attitude about girls was, when a girl opens a door, don't ignore it. Walk though. Mom opened a door. Yeah, she was my Mom. But she was a girl. And, let's face it, she was kind of hot.
I walked through the door.
"You know, if you're worried about shaving yourself, I could do it myself." There. I said it.
