"What do you want me to do? Should I sit on the porch with my legs spread and a sign in my lap that says EASY?" Then she laughed that throaty, husky laugh I love so much. I still turn red when she calls me out about anything sexual. She continues to giggle as she combs her long fingers through her tangle of dark auburn locks. She shimmies her hips and makes a seductive show of squeezing her breasts as she playfully grinds against me for just a second, then collapses in hysterical convulsions as she plops onto the couch.
"I didn't mean that," I stutter, while trying to re-arrange the instant hard-on in my shorts. At once I seem confused, ashamed and aroused. She managed to tussle my hair, pat my butt and kiss me on the nose at the same time. I find these awkward moments happening more often these days and I also lay awake at night thinking that I should somehow sweep her into my arms and ravish her. But these aren't the kind of feelings a guy should have about his mother.
I was only trying to suggest yet again, that she should rejoin the dating pool. Maybe meet a nice fella and stop feeling like she needs to still baby me anymore.
My mom Lisa, is approaching forty. She was a child-bride whose husband stuck around long enough to knock her up and then empty her bank account before splitting. After about fifteen years, she managed to rebuild her savings, put me through day-care and then on through college, and finally realize that I was not just her son, but someone she could share her secrets with because in all of my twenty-one years I had not seen her drop her guard around men. No guy had ever been able to get closer than a few dinners and some touch-and-feel sex.
My name is Mike, she calls me Mickey, like just now when she asked me to bring her a martini. "Mickey, you got me hooked on these things. I use to be happy with a can of beer. I guess you thought maybe some handsome millionaire would find me more glamorous if I acted like a lady. Though I think two or three of these suckers just knock me on my ass and makes me a sloppy drunk. Then you have to help me undress and carry your glamorous mother to her bed." She laughed again, that hearty, whiskey laugh. "Maybe you should be the one fondling my boobs and grabbing my ass. All you get to do is rub my feet or hold my hair while I heave into the toilet."
I was sitting across from her in our livingroom, helping to drain the pitcher of chilled vodka. The sun was just setting, it's last rays casting a warm red aura on the room. It was late Spring and we were in the middle of a nice stretch of warm weather. That is how I noticed that her flimsy tank-top could not contain her sweet 34 double-ds. And her tiny shorts fit snugly over her well-rounded bottom. Also her long legs showed some strong muscle tone at her quads and calves, and I was surprisingly turned-on at the vision of her pink-painted toenails toying with the cushions of the sofa.
It occurred to me then that I had not seen her in anything revealing since last Autumn. Anyway, she's my Mom. I have grown accustom to seeing her in sweats and flannels. And I remember now, that she started going to a gym a few months ago. She reasoned that it was a pleasant afternoon out with other women and that she could sweat-away some of those extra pounds that she claimed to have been packing-on.
I have been urging her for about the last two years to get out more, enjoy her life and possibly meet a nice man. She always balked. There were subtle hints that she was insecure about her figure or could no longer trust strange men. Though recently her remarks have gotten more sensual and her vocabulary and imagery, more suggestive. She has implied that she no longer wants to play "the dating game," and that no other man will "get into her pants."
I would blush when she tossed around sayings like, "I don't need anymore than I have- my vibrator and you." Or recently, "I didn't firm-up
these boobs for some stranger." And finally, "I can't see myself with any other guy. I have my imagination. You can stop attempting to fix me up." It's disconcerting to see your mom year after year, as simply your mom. And then one day you notice that she is a smoldering, beguiling vixen with her own needs and desires.
After a few quiet moments she seemed to slip into a trance. As I watched her, my mind was reeling with deviant fantasies. I was drinking with my mom, imagining her in sexual situations and pretending that she was verbally seducing me. She was abit glassy-eyed, the thin straps on her top sliding down her shoulder. She seemed to be half-drunk and half-dressed. Her cocktail glass in her unsteady hand had dribbled spots on the thin material of her satiny top. The droplets quickly spread and became transparent. And her long fingers playfully though unconsciously, toyed with her nipples, now suddenly obvious and perky under the gossamer sheen of her tee. She tossed her dark-red hair side-to-side as her wet, pink tongue slowly parted her glossy lips. Her icy blue eyes appeared clouded over and she tightly squeezed her shapely thighs and looked to be slowly heaving her hips up and down into the soft couch.
