CATE
Wow. I can't believe I seduced mom into having sex with me. Even more surprising was how much mom got into it. I think we fell asleep cuddling in our arms. Maybe from the pure contentment and bliss of sharing something so intimate or maybe we were just emotionally exhausted. I guess, just like Jake, I never realized how sexy mom was. What really hit me hard was finding out how incredibly attracted I am to mom. Lots of emotions to deal with and process. I could only imagine the gamut of emotions coursing through mom's mind at this moment.
I shook mom and whispered, "Mom, time to wake up sleepy head." Mom groaned and stretched, opening her eyes to the sudden realization of what we, mother and daughter, had just shared. Her eyes darted, almost in panic, hoping that this was a dream. As I reached over and caressed the side of her beautiful face, reality sank in further. Her eyes teared up, her breathing became somewhat erratic as she clasped my hand and looked into my eyes.
"Oh honey what have we done? This is so wrong. I am so sorry I took advantage of you. Please baby, can you forgive me."
I almost laughed, but didn't knowing how truly conflicted mom must be feeling. I continued to softly stroke her face as I said, "Mom, what we shared was incredible. My love for you has grown tenfold. There is nothing to apologize for. Remember, we both said we were okay with our shared intimacy. Now stop this nonsense and kiss me mommy."
I leaned and gently kissed her. My lips softly caressing hers. Mom did not pull back but rather accepted my loving lips holding my hand close to her face. Our kiss was not maternal but rather an intimate expression between two lovers. Loving and sensual, I felt my mom's love as we continued our kiss.
Finally mom pushed back and lovingly held my face like a mom. Looking into my eyes like a lover she asked, "Are you sure that you are fine with this?"
"Yes mommy, I'm fine with this. I love you and I know you love me. What we just shared was incredible and I want it to happen again."
Mom pulled me close with a big hug and whispered, "I enjoyed myself too Cate. Not sure if we should do this again."
I knew that now was not the moment to push mom. She still needed time to deal with all her maternal conflicts so I just said, "Mom, I love you. If we do it again great. If this was the only time than I'm just grateful for what we shared. Now come on let's go see what Jake is doing."

Oh girlfriend you really screwed up this time I thought to myself. I needed to put up a strong front for Cate's sake. I know at the time it felt wonderful to share such intimacies with my daughter but the fact remains I'm her mother and my behavior was inappropriate at best. I went downstairs to find a note on the kitchen table from Jake. I dreaded reading it,
Dear Mom,
I'm sorry for my inappropriate behavior this afternoon. I hope
you have room in your heart to understand why I acted the
way I did. Mom you are so beautiful. I never looked at you like
that, as you are my mom. All my friends think you are hot as hell
and I guess I finally started looking at you as an attractive, hot, sexy,
woman. No excuses. I lost all self control seeing you in your bikini.
I'm sorry mom. I hope that I didn't ruin our relationship. I would be
devastated if my actions somehow ruins what we have shared all
these years. I won't be home tonight as I'm going to hang out with
my friends. I'll be sleeping at Matt's house tonight. I love you mom!
I'm sorry,
Jake
Oh my, I grabbed my chest as I hurt so much for my baby. I'm the one that succumbed to my lust. It wasn't you Jake! It wasn't you Jake!
I crushed the note in my hand and sat down at the table. I quietly wept as I imagined how much pain Jake was in. I vowed to make this right. Just then I heard Cate bounding down the stairs. I felt her arm wrap around my shoulder as I kept my head down so that she would not see the distress I was in.
"Mom! What's wrong now?" I heard her ask.
"Nothing honey. I'll be fine."
"Mom that is total bullshit. You are crying again. Why? What do you have in your hand? Please talk to me. Don't shut me out mom."
Wow I'm sitting here feeling bad and as I listen to my daughter, she sounds more like a mom. "Cate you are something else baby."
I grabbed her arm, draped on my shoulder, looked up to her and said, "My darling Cate I love you. Thank you for being here for me. It's just a private note from Jake that really touched my heart. As you well know I'm an emotional mess right now. I'm good baby. I'm good."
Cate looked at me with those eyes and said, "I don't believe you. Okay mom. I just want you to know that I'm here for you if you ever need a sounding board. I will always tell you what is best."
I squeezed her hand and said, "I know honey! I know. I'll be fine."
