Note
:
This story contains several text conversations. They are written to reflect the naturalistic way most people text. That is to say, they are not grammatically correct, include shorthand, and lack most, if not all, proper punctuation. My intent is to try and convey the rhythm that can be unique to text conversations and the feelings the act of texting can create. The immediacy, familiarity, humor, mystery, anxiousness, doubt, etc... I think they are written and formatted in a way that makes them easy to read, but in case they aren't, consider this my apology in advance.
Carmen and Paul: Book One

Prologue
I'm Paul, 20, I live at home while attending a local private college. I play left field for the baseball team. Division II, so nothing fancy. I have a good bat, decent glove, an okay throwing arm, and bad speed. These things don't add up to a career playing pro ball. I made my peace with this in high school and at this point, I'm just enjoying still being able to play. I hate running, so I swim four times a week and lift weights. I'm in good shape. I do okay with girls. I've had several girlfriends and more fuck buddies, but no relationships longer than a few months. I'd say I'm an average 20-year-old guy, I've always liked masturbating and sex. I typically find time to get off three or four times a day. I've been taught that sex is a normal, healthy part of life, so I've never been shy or self-conscious about going to my room to take care of business when the need arises.
My Father died in a plane crash when I was 13. He already wasn't around much because of work, so honestly, not much changed when he died, but I still miss him. He owned a company that made displays for conventions. You know, the booths companies set up to sell their products and services at shows. Dad and his brother started and ran the company and had become successful enough to be constantly busy and traveling all over, but not big enough to not have to do everything themselves. Mom worked with Dad designing the displays. She's always had an eye for what looks good. She gets a lot of compliments on our home.
My Mother received 25 percent of, and still works for the company, now run by my uncle. She has the final say on designs. This allows her to work part-time and remotely. She only travels for work once or twice a year. Mom got a settlement from the airline, and Dad had great life insurance. He also had a stipulation that, if he died before I graduated college, I would receive the profit from his remaining 25 percent of the company, in the form of a trust, until I was 25. This is a long-winded way of explaining that we live very well but aren't rich.
My Mom is Carmen, she just turned 42. We live together in Florida; it's just been just the two of us since Dad died. She and Dad met in the Army. They got married when they were 20. Had me a year later. Mom is very straightforward. She tackles problems without hesitation. She says, "Problems are just opportunities to find a solution and prove you're smarter." She's the type of person that everyone gravitates towards in a room. She is also very attractive. Always has been. The kind of attractive that everybody comments on. Whether she's dressed up for an evening out or running errands in shorts and a tank, she gets attention. Of course, my friends always notice. Usually, comments are kept innocent but occasionally someone will offer up a naughty observation and that will unleash a flood of dirty thoughts and pent-up fantasies from everyone.
It's never really bothered me, the attention or the risquΓ© comments. Partly because mom raised me to understand that people have these thoughts; and there's a time and place for them. But mostly because I agree with everybody when they say how pretty she is or how great she looks in whatever she's wearing and even when my friends say they'd love to see her naked and do naughty things with her. I assume if you're reading this you've likely assumed that yeah, despite being her son, I'm not immune from my own mother's charms. And, of course, I've had to keep these taboo feelings a secret. From everybody.
Living in Florida it's impossible not to see people in revealing clothing and mom is no exception. Her typical wardrobe consists of shorts, tank tops, and flip-flops. She does dress up to "go out," which she does, typically, once or twice a week. And yes, we have a pool, so there have been lots of bikinis over the years. Now with Mom's body, she's never had to resort to "mom bikinis" but neither does she lounge around in G-strings or micro bikinis. At least she didn't use to...but we'll get to that. No, just your typical scant string bikini that covers everything without hiding anything. Most of my friends growing up had pools too, but they seem to always want to come over here to swim. Go figure.
It's not that none of my friend's moms are attractive, either. Especially Aaron's mom Taylor. Taylor Phoenix is beautiful. Like model beautiful. It's a common point of conversation that people are shocked to find out she wasn't a supermodel when she was young. She's that kind of pretty. She's tall, slim, a natural blonde with big green eyes. I'm not kidding, perfect skin, perfect face, perfect body, and all the other parts appear to be just as perfect. The only drawback is she's always been about as warm as an ice cube. She's not snobby, or arrogant, or dismissive. She just seemed aloof and unbothered. Basically, the opposite of Mom in every way, except that they're both attractive and the same age.
Aaron Phoenix was a year ahead of me in school, on the football team, very popular and in the popular kids' clique. He was also kind of a bully and a dickhead through junior high. His demeanor changed in high school, he became cooler and nicer. We've never really been friends. Or enemies. We've been to each other's houses, and we've also avoided each other at times.
Aaron's mom was a frequent subject of gossip and conversation. Aaron's dad was never around. I think I've seen him three times, ever. The main rumor was him and Taylor (she insisted to everyone that you call her Taylor and not Mrs. Phoenix, to the extent that when people just say Taylor everyone knows it means her. This makes all the Taylors in school grumpy. They're all Taylor B. or whatever their last name initial is) anyway, the main rumor was that they were living separate lives and only still married because the Japanese company he works for expected men to have a stable marriage and family. There were other rumors; like she used to be a stripper, or a porn star, or Mr. Taylor is gay and she's his beard. No one's ever offered proof of any of these, and I figure if any of it was true it would have come out by now. I even did my own research on the porn star thing. Whatever. She's nice enough, she deserves to live in peace.
Mom has known Taylor since they were in grade school and has always defended her, but they weren't exactly friends. As far as I knew they never went out or hung out together. Taylor was always pleasant to me in the same way she was always pleasant to everyone. She just didn't probe or engage more than necessary. But there were stories of her helping people without being asked. My friend Kiera's house burned down one night, including both their cars, they barely got out alive. A lot of people chipped in to help but Taylor gave them her car. Not lent, gave. I was a one-year-old SUV. Of course, she bought a new car, but most people wouldn't do that even if they could.
Also, Taylor owns and operates a yoga and Pilates studio in town. It is quite successful and in demand. Some professional athletes are clients. There is a waiting list to join.
