HOME IS WHERE THE HARD-ON IS
PREFACE
The following is a "true story of my imagination" and inspired by a loving mother and her soldier son. I recently saw a news clip where they interviewed the parents of a soldier who had recently returned home from the war in Iraq. The father, mother and son were all seated together being interviewed, and while the father seemed happy to have his son home, the mother seemed ecstatic. She was seated closer to her son than to her husband and kept gazing into her son's eyes as she spoke to the media. She frequently patted his thigh and rubbed his shoulder as she spoke. On one hand, it was endearing. On the other, you expected her to lock her lips with her son's at any moment and drive her tongue down his throat! The mother, herself, was attractive with brown hair and a voluptuous figure. You could tell she was beautiful in her younger days and made efforts to stay attractive. The son gave your typical jarhead appearance in his gray-green uniform and short cut hair. He was well spoken and very polite. He was proud to serve his country but was happy to be home with his family. When he said this, his mother squeezed his thigh momentarily before they all returned their attention to the media.
Of course, in my depraved mind, there is more behind the motherly love. This is a story of incest between mother and son. If this subject matter bothers you, I suggest you "change the channel". Naturally, all names, places and events in this story are figments of my imagination. This is fantasy, pure fantasy. But I hope it's one that you enjoy!

CUMMING HOME
Judy wept tears of joy as she read the final letter from her son, Rick, a soldier fighting in Iraq. The letter was informing the family of his return home the following week after serving nearly five years in the U.S. Army, the last 18 months seeing action in Iraq. Ever since they saw their one and only son off to fight in a foreign land, Judy and her husband, Eduardo, had counted the days until his return. Judy, in particular, had counted the days with bated breath, her heart pounding anxiously with every news story of more casualties. But every time, Rick escaped harm, escaped death, lived another day. And now, he was finally coming home to the only family he had ever known, his mother and father. He had left home at eighteen to join the army and was sent immediately to an a military base 700 miles from home, where he became proficient in telecommunications as a Network Switching Systems Operator. It was a skill, he hoped, that would serve him well in the real world. But three years later, just after 9/11, everything changed, and no sooner had Rick been promoted to Staff Sergeant when he was sent to Iraq. And now at nearly twenty-three years of age, the once shy boy who had left home was returning as a confident, well-spoken young man, having had to grow up fast, to think fast and react fast, and sadly, to learn how to deal with death -- death of civilians and comrades. Rick had probably seen more than most people would in a lifetime.
And so, exactly one week and two days after Judy had received the letter, Rick found himself on a plane home. He sighed deeply, closed his eyes and rested his head. On the military base, near the landing strip where the airplane would touch down, Judy and Eduardo waited anxiously for their son to arrive, along with other families waiting for loved ones. Judy had insisted they leave the house early, and after waiting nearly two hours, the plane finally came to a stop, and its crew exited. Judy's heart beat wildly as she gazed at each soldier as they embraced loved ones. Finally, Rick appeared, and Judy's heart melted. Her son looked great in his camouflage uniform, brown boots and black beret. His smile sparkled as he spotted his parents. Judy waved hesitantly, as if her son hadn't noticed her. Rick picked up his pace and finally embraced his father.
"Welcome home, son," Eduardo grunted, his voice cracking as father and son hugged tightly and patted each other's backs. Rick gazed into his mother's eyes behind them and smiled. Judy smiled back, as Rick released his hold and moved toward his mother.
