As it got closer to graduation, Mark and I realized that our days together were coming to a close. His mom was thinking of moving back to Texas, and Mark was thinking of going to college there as well. I was accepted at a college in Wisconsin, so it was unlikely we would have many opportunities to be alone. Even our sometime shared partner, Cindy, was going on to school out east.
Mark was my first lover, introducing me to boxer shorts, blowjobs, role playing and three-ways. No demands, no drama, just fun, sex and intimacy. We would be leaving on good terms, and it was somewhat bittersweet.
After what would be our last time together, we each traded some boxers for a final time, for a final remembrance, We kissed and hugged, and I wouldn't see him again for 20 years.
It was summer, and I was working as much as I could before going to college in the fall. I didn't have too much time to feel sorry for myself, but when I was home, I think I was a little moody.
Mid-summer, my little brother, Tommy, was away at camp for two weeks, and my father was away on a business trip for the same two weeks. My mom had suggested that she and I take a vacation, but I had to work, so we would just hang out together once in a while.
One morning, I was heading downstairs in just my paisley boxers to take a shower. I thought my mom was up in her room, so I was surprised to see her in the downstairs bathroom, putting clothes into the washer. As I walked in, she jumped and let out a yelp. I thought she had been sniffing the crotch of a pair of my boxers in the laundry basket.
"Oh, Ray! I thought you were still sleeping. You scared me!"
"Sorry mom, didn't mean to."
Her eyes drifted to the boxers I was wearing, slightly askew and the fly partially open. I usually didn't walk around the house like that in front of my mom, and I moved my clean clothes in front of me to cover myself.
"I was just sorting laundry. I try to look for stains and treat them before throwing them in." She was still holding a pair of my boxers, and I'm sure there was a cum stain in them.
"Thanks, Mom," I replied awkwardly. "Do you want me to come back when you're done?"
"No, that's okay. I'm almost done." She threw the remaining clothes in the washer. "If you give me those boxers, I'll throw them in too." She pointed the ones I was wearing.
I didn't know what to do. She was my mom, but still very hot. And since Mark left, I was very horny. If I took off my boxers there, my boner would stand right up.
"Ah, sure," I replied. I set down my clean clothes on the counter and climbed into the shower, shutting the frosted glass doors to a crack, then removed my boxers and handed them to her through the crack.
"You know, I sure like your new boxers. That's the first time I've seen you in them - they look nice on you. You look so mature. Your father doesn't look that good in his, and Tommy hasn't filled his out yet."
This was getting a little awkward. "Thanks for picking them out for me, Mom. The guys in school started switching to them, and they're getting more popular."
"Glad you like them. I think Penney's is having a sale. Maybe I'll pick you some more up for school in the fall. What kind do you like the best? You have some with patterns. How about some pastels? Before Christmas, I saw some nice blues, greens and yellows."
I didn't know where this was coming from, but I started getting aroused. I had peeked at her Christmas underwear, and saw nylon panties in those same pastel colors. My dick was getting erect, and I turned to the side in case she could see anything through the frosted glass. She was still standing there!
"Yeah, that would be really great. I like pastel colors a lot."
"Great! Anything else you need? More A-shirts? I think those look really good on you too."
"Sure, Mom, more A-shirts would be great."
"Ok. Take your shower then. I'm going to run some errands, so maybe I'll stop at Penney's while I'm out. If I see anything else you might need, I can pick it up. Then you can model it for me....well, except for the boxers....unless I happen to see you around the house in them again.... Start the washer when you're done. Thanks"
She left the bathroom and shut the door. I looked down at my raging boner. What was I thinking? She was my mom! But she was going on and on about my underwear. Was she really sniffing my boxers?!?
I finished my shower, dried off and got dressed. I remembered to turn on the washer, but before I did, I lifted the lid and sorted through the clothes in there. Mostly underwear and t-shirts, then I came across a pair of her pink nylon panties. Feeling a little guilty, I took them out and looked in the crotch. They were stained with pussy juice! She must have been horny, and rubbed herself off!
I dug around a little more, and found three other pair, light blue, green and yellow, each with pussy stains in the crotch. Just like her comments about boxers. Was she fantasizing about me?!?
Now I was getting aroused. I had to go to work, but I'd be thinking about this all day....
I called home during my break. "Hey Mom, how about if I take you out to dinner tonight? With Dad and Tommy gone, we should do something special. And you've been doing me a lot of favors lately, like picking up new underwear and stuff. What do you say?"
She sounded surprised and a little excited. "Wow, that sounds nice! Kind of like a date, huh?"
"Yup, wear something nice. I'm getting done early, so I'll come home and shower and we can go out. Do you have a special place in mind?"
She thought for a minute. "How about Angelo's? They have great food, and your father will never take me there."
"Sounds like a date. I'll call for a reservation for 6:00. See you tonight."
I hung up the phone. I was sure she was excited over the phone, and I was surprised to realize that I was excited too.
I got home, and ran upstairs to get clean clothes. Mom's bathroom door was closed, so I yelled, "I'm home! I got the reservations. I'm going to shower."
Mom yelled through the door. "Ok, thanks! I picked up that new underwear for you, and washed and dried it all for you, if you want to wear any of them."
Wow, this was getting better by the minute. "Thanks, Mom! I appreciate that!"
I walked into my room to see a pile of six folded boxers and A-shirts on my bed. Just like she said, pastels of blue, green, yellow, some shade of light pink/purple, tan and grey.
"Very nice colors, Mom! Any particular color you like the best?"
"I like them all, but I think maybe the lilac the best." Lilac, that's what the pink/purple color was.
"Cool, I'll wear those tonight. Ok, I'm gonna take my shower now."
I ran downstairs and hopped in the shower. We had about 45 minutes until the reservation. I shaved, then dressed in khaki pants and a dress shirt.
Mom was coming down the stairs as I got to the kitchen, wearing a pretty sundress, heels and nice jewelry. "Wow, Mom! You look great!"
She blushed a little, "Thanks, Ray! You look very handsome yourself. People will think we're on a real date tonight."
My mom was really quite attractive, now that I've seen her in this new light. My father was a lucky man, but he sure didn't seem to appreciate her.
I walked her out the car and opened the passenger door for her, then went around the other side and got in. "You're really sweet to take me out to dinner tonight, Ray." She leaned over and gave be a kiss on the cheek. Not a quick one, not too long either. A promise of more to come?
As we drove to the restaurant, she asked, "Do you like this dress? I just bought it today whe I was shopping for you. I thought it looked so summery and fun." She lifted the edge to show me, and I thought I caught a glimpse of her lilac nylon panties underneath. I almost swerved the car.
"I like it a lot. And I think it looks very good on you, too. Wait until Dad sees it."
"Let's not talk about your father tonight. I'm sure he's having his own fun wherever he is."
That sounded bitter, so I let it drop and changed the subject. We arrived at Angelo's and had time for a drink at the bar before dinner. We made small talk, asking each other about our day. I hadn't seen my mom this happy in a long time. She really seemed to be enjoying herself. The waiter came and let us to our table.
I had asked for a table in the back, a cozy one where young lovers usually sat. Luckily they were able to reserve it for us. We ordered a bottle of wine and looked at the menu.
Mom seemed a little tipsy when the food came. Too much alcohol on an empty stomach. As we talked and laughed, she would lay a hand on my arm, or touch my hand - little things that lovers do.
"You really are getting to be a handsome man, Ray. Any special girl in your life?"
"No, Mark and I had hung around with Cindy for a while, but neither of us saw that as long term. We'll see who I meet in college."
She seemed a little sad, but smiled and said, "That's a month away. Let's just talk about now."
We finished the meal, making small talk again, but each of us thinking about how the night would go from there. We were both sending off signals, flirting with each other. She sure didn't seem like my mom, this attractive and sexy woman.
