I was a happy woman. To put it mildly.
The past year had been the most amazing of my life. We had all celebrated another birthday, my twin children and I.
I had changed so much. Lost weight, embraced my natural gray hair (still blonde down below, though) and, at the age of 43, gotten more sex per month than in any two years during my marriage.
How much sex? Hundreds upon hundreds of times. I'm not a "notches on the headboard" gal, but if I were, we'd need a bigger headboard. Jack, my 19-year-old son and lover, ploughed me an average of three times a day, all month round, no time off for periods. You do the math - I'm too busy getting laid!
My pussy had seen so much action. Jack had fucked me so much, I'm surprised that big strong dick hadn't been whittled down to a toothpick.
Amazingly, the frequency hadn't dropped away. We were doing it as often as ever. Making up for lost time, maybe? The hormones of an insatiable young fuck-stud and a voracious older woman? Or that indefinable mom-and-son X factor that meant the thrill never wanes. Something that happens when two lovers share half their DNA.
And because the female orgasm is so elusive, I couldn't just lie there and take it. I had to put my ass into it. And that made every fuck an event, every orgasm an achievement, something I had worked for. Every fuck was special, unique; I would never take him for granted.
Not that we didn't have quickies. Lunchtime when I was working, for instance. That was basically maintenance: keeping him drained. A blowjob or five minutes on top of Mom was enough.
Jack called me beautiful, and for the first time in my life, I could see what he meant. The expensive hairdo, the clothes, the huge boobs on a skinny frame. It wasn't one of those "Why, without those glasses, you're beautiful, Miss Jones" things. I hadn't suddenly been transformed into an Amazonian sex goddess, but I was looking the best me I could be.
And there was something else. You always look beautiful when you smile. I had been smiling a lot this past year.
Now our anniversary was approaching. First anniversary is traditionally paper, but I had a feeling Jack was going to get wood. We had so much to celebrate, and there was one place I wanted to be fucked by my teenage son on our first anniversary.
Money was no object, which was just as well, because this had cost me a fortune. For one thing, I had to buy off my daughter, Cassie. Her 19
th
birthday present? Her favorite band was performing in New York. She could go and see them while Jack and I were away. All expenses paid, I told her, without realising what that would entail.
"OK," I calculated. "One concert ticket, transport to NYC and back. You can stay with your father while you're there..."
"Mom, I can't go by myself. Can I bring a friend?"
I sighed. "That's a lot of money, Cassie."
"But you and Jack are going on a cruise."
"But you didn't want to come," I said.
Thank God.
I'd fed her a story of Jack wanting to see a bit of the world before settling down to the rat race grind.
"What if I changed my mind," she said, slyly. "I'm sure it's not too late to book me a ticket."
I gritted my teeth.
You little vixen
. I scanned the computer screen. "Oh, look, we are in luck. Here's a good airline deal. Yes, sure, take a friend, Cassie."
"And I don't want to stay with Dad. His place is too small. Can you book us into a hotel?"
I was in no position to argue. The anniversary celebrations were costing a fortune. A little extra to keep Cassie sweet was a good investment. "A week at your father's and a week in a hotel."
"Cool. And some spending money, Mom. New York's not cheap."
You're telling me.
But I had already booked tickets for Jack and me. Nothing, absolutely nothing, could get in the way. I was relieved when we settled on an amount that would keep Cassie happy and out of my way for the duration.
The other side of the equation was even more eye-wateringly expensive. I had to book Jack and me adjoining cabins, in case the ship was patrolled by the incest police. The hotel also had two rooms, lest anyone ask questions about an innocent mother and her equally innocent son sharing the same room.
Jack gave me his anniversary present before we left. I looked at the USB in my hand. "What's this?"
"Mom, you remember the night we first made it together? Well, the day before, I rigged up half a dozen cameras in my room. I wanted to be ready in case anything happened."
I must have looked puzzled.
"Mom, this is you and me, doing it, in color, hi-definition and earth-moving stereo surround sound, the first time."
"The first time we made love? Jack, that's astonishing. Thank you! The best present ever. But filming someone without their knowledge, is that legal?"
"Mom, that was about the most legal thing we did that night."
I grinned. "Hmmm. Well, I'm glad you did. I am so looking forward to watching this on the voyage!"
"No, we can't take it with us. We have to pass through customs and immigration, remember. Best if we leave it at home and watch it when we get back."
So I put it in the drawer of my bedside table for when we returned. Ordinarily, nothing could have kept me from sitting down and watching it there and then, but I still had so much packing and organising to do. Virile teenage boys have their uses, but planning overseas trips is not one of them.
I had expected to feel seasick when we left harbor. But I soon saw that you can't build a multi-billion-dollar industry on people paying thousands of dollars just to throw up for several days. The cruise ship was big enough that we felt only the very slightest hint of being in motion (except when we were in bed, of course).
I had imagined we could do a dirty version of
Titanic
, me standing at the prow, dress hiked up, Jack feeding it into me from the rear. But I soon realized that modern cruise ships aren't quite built for that. And even if they were, there are always people around. Not to mention the security cameras.
The best I could do was put on my shortest mini, find a quiet spot at the railings, lift the front of my skirt up when no one was around, splay my legs as wide as I dared, for as long as I dared, and let the Atlantic breeze play with my pussy. Jack swore later that he could taste the salt!
We resolved to make the most of the cruise experience. Evening dress, dining at the captain's table, taking in an onboard show or two.
The first night, we dressed up: Jack in his tux, which makes me moist; me in my gown, which gets him instantly stiff. As soon as we saw each other, dressed to fuck, we knew dinner wouldn't last long. I was a giddy wet mess, my fingers and pussy quivering as I did up his bow tie, remembering all the times we had cum while I did that, impaled in his lap.
We planned to have a quick meal, then we'd be each other's main course back in bed. We had expected to be dining alone and discussing what we would be doing to each other later. But we were placed at a large table with several other couples.
I wouldn't have minded, but Jack was sat next to two women, part of a college reunion cruise party, who flirted outrageously with him.
It wasn't difficult to see why. I was biased, but he had grown into a gorgeous young man. Assured, polite, humorous. And very good looking. Not leading-man good looking. More the best buddy who gets the leading man to the wedding on time.
He's funny in a sexy way and clever and obviously great in bed and has a job he loves that doesn't pay much and he has a tiny apartment in the bohemian part of town with genuine art on the walls and some of his own black-and-white photography and shelves full of books and he cooks like a dream and he probably has a disabled brother he cares for and he has a regular Friday gig playing guitar in the local coffee house and he's honest and loyal and open and would make a great father, and why the girl isn't going for him instead of the leading man is a mystery.
He's there throughout the movie, but his big scene comes toward the end, when he gives the hero a speech, probably about shaping up, or sticking to his principles or not losing the girl. He's never at the top of the credits, but he's the one who increases the average vaginal moisture content in the theatre.
Jack handled the attention brilliantly. He paid them the requisite courtesy of a young man acknowledging the attentions of tipsy women coming on to him in public. They were hot for him. But in all our relationship, Jack had never given me any reason to doubt his fidelity. I trusted him completely.
He would politely bat away their compliments and their innuendos, joke with them in kind, and when he turned back to me, he made me feel, with his eyes, his words, his hand high up on my thigh under the table, as though I was the only woman on the whole ship.
You can't begin to imagine how sexy that is, how secure and loved that makes a woman feel, how wet my juicebox was, and how richly I rewarded him after we had skipped dessert and made our excuses.
Next morning, Jack kicked off with a dip in one of the ship's pools. I watched from the shade, shielding my pasty alabaster skin. As he emerged from the water, I worshipped his body with my eyes, getting increasingly aroused as I planned what to do with it when we got back to my cabin.
But I wasn't the only one with eyes.
A low whistle came from a nearby deckchair. "What did I tell you. Would you look at that package." It was one of the women from dinner last night. "That has to go special delivery."
"My God, yes," her companion said. "It must weight a ton. If he fell overboard, that thing would drag him straight to the seabed."
"I wish it would drag him to my bed. Christ, I'm so horny..."
I was outraged. They had no right to talk about my baby that way. That was my job!
As for those swimming trunks, yes, well, I had bought them for him, but I hadn't reckoned on the startling effect when they were wet...
Back at the cabin, Jack just laughed when I told him what had happened. "C'mon. Let's take a stroll. It's a big ship. We'll be able to avoid them."
You'd think. But at our first stop, in one of the onboard coffee shops, who should we spot but our two friends. We hurried past them to the counter. I bought an apple. Jack eventually chose a banana. We went up to the empty mezzanine floor and took a banquette seat, looking down through the glass partition at the women.
"Aren't you going to eat that?" I asked Jack.
"I have a better idea. Scoot to the edge of your seat. Good. Now spread."
"Oh, no! Anyone looking up here could see me! I don't want to flash the whole ship."
"Do as I say, Mom." He held up the banana. It was big - not as big as him, but it had an intriguing curve.
