Standing in the elevator, I was genuinely upset. Not angry. Not furious. As we left our room even after freshening up, I saw just how exhausted I looked as we passed the mirror at our door.
I know. I know. I told him he can have me ALL weekend, but I want to enjoy my reunion. He knew this. His behavior, although 'typical', is also more alphain nature. He's not domineering and not controlling, he just knows EXACTLY what he wants.
"Honey," I began, barely above a whisper, "I'm upset with you right now." Keeping my eyes straight forward, I was in a whirlwind of emotions. "We had an understanding," I continued. "We MUST be more discreet is all I'm saying. Have I once turned you down since...... we began our affair?"
A silence filled the elevator a few seconds, when Parker answered, "I'm sorry mom. I really am. The question about me having a girlfriend ignited something in me, and I just went along with it." Hearing the disappointment in my voice, Parker continued. "I can't get enough of you, mom. You're so beautiful. I don't know anyone who has a mother as open and loving as you."
"Honey, what we do is not 'normal' as far as society sees it. A parent and her child, even a 19 year old one, shouldn't have the relationship we have."
Sensing a sudden shift, I could tell Parker was starting to panic. "Are you saying we need to stop? Are you suddenly getting a conscience?"
Those words he said in his last sentence were true in some manner, but even I knew I couldn't just suddenly turn the spigot off. "No sweetheart, I'm not saying that." Noticing him relax, I added," But that doesn't mean you can just "take me" or demand intimacy when it suits you, either. Interlocking my fingers with his, I turned to him. "I am asking you, one final time. We're here for my reunion. First and foremost. Please wear the condoms unless I specify otherwise, when we are intimate. We need to be smarter, young man. Respect must be given or I'm afraid I will have to end this."
Thinking about what I just stated, I could see the wheels turning in his head. "I know. I have to learn how to control myself. I don't want this to stop," he quipped, genuine remorse appearing on him. "I'm in love with you. I'm not asking you to leave dad, I'm just saying it's difficult to keep my impulsivity down."
DING!!!!
Reaching the lobby, we stepped out. Standing on my tiptoes, I gave him a quick peck on his lips. "I accept your apology, Sweetheart," the submissive seduction in my voice. "Let's get back to the reunion, ok?"
With a newfound understanding and sense of relief, we walked together back to the venue.
************
Upon re-entering the banquet room, the gala was still ongoing. Laughter echoed throughout and glasses clinked against each other. At one end, old classmates mingled. Others stood in line at the bar. Some couple were dancing to music the DJ was playing. Making our way back to the table we originally sat at, all eyes found us.
"There you are," Grace exclaimed. "We wondered what happened to you both."
"I had to return some messages my husband left," I lied. "Plus I had a headache, so we went up to the room where my purse was and got me some Tylenol."
"Well they're going to start bingo, and a scavenger hunt in the room in a few minutes," Grace added, like a kid receiving a toy.
"Honey, can you get me a Ginger Ale please?" Patting his arm.
"Sure mom," Parker said, leaving the table.
After he left, Grace was looking at me. "Are you alright Maddie?" She asked, querily.
"Yes. Why do you ask?" I responded.
With a sudden change in her demeanor, she quickly changed script. "You just look like... Nevermind," she said. Changing the subject, the conversation seemed to have settled, albeit briefly.
"Richard, can I speak to you privately?" I heard Grace ask her husband. Without another word, they both excused themselves from the table.
Finally returning with my drink, Parker also had secured himself a Coca-Cola. "Thank you honey," I stated, give him one of our 'secret' looks.
***********
With Grace and Richard away, and others at our table up and about mingling and laughing with others, I was looking over at the photo booth.
"Wanna take some photos?" I asked. "You know, we can rub them in your dads face for missing out the fun."
"Sure. Why not," my son stated. But before we got up to walk over, Parker had added. "He's not missing much, mom." Parker said, his tone. low. "We wouldn't be intimate if he were here, right?"
"I guess your right," I added, with a look no mother should be giving to her son.
Getting up from the table we proceeded to the photo booth.
"Everyone. Can we have your attention please?" A voice interrupted. "The scavenger hunt begins at 9. That event will close out our evening."
Standing in line for photos, I couldn't help but notice Grace, her husband Richard, and a couple other people glancing our direction. No assumptions. But I had found it odd. I wasn't fixated on anything in particular, but while waiting in line and have a pause in talking, I'd notice their eyes shift away when my eyes scanned their direction.
"Next!" the photographer stated.
Setting us in certain poses, I had to politely inform the photographer that Parker wasn't my husband but, rather, my son. "Oh I'm sorry," she said, looking at me. The pose she'd tried putting us in had me standing, my back to Parker, against him, and his hands resting on my hips. A normal pose for a couple, it definitely wasn't a pose for us. After re-positioning us, we took a few pictures with much more innocence in them. But as we stood, I again noticed the glances from Grace and everyone else.
"You can pick up your photos tomorrow night at the dinner banquet," the lady said. After giving her my name and room number, as well as non-pertitnent info, Parker and I made our way around the room.
Again, resting my hand in the crook of his arm, everything felt.. normal. Stopping and talking to people I knew of, they were all kind and polite. I'll admit, it soon became cheesy when I'd introduce Parker. "You're a good son," he'd be told. "Being loving enough to stand in for your father is honorable.. It's cute too," They'd end with.
As the evening wore on, the gait in my steps had normalized, the pulsing in my quim lessening. Undernearth my dress, the remants of what Parker left inside me had matted the gusset of my pantyhose. Sure, my dress was long enough that it should hide any....unwanted sights, correct? But unaware of the full extent of the recent past, the slit in my dress, periodically exposing my legs with each step I took would, soon, come into play.

"Alright everyone! It's time for our couples scavenger hunt!" The moderator announced.
As couples begun to gather at the front, several others chose not to participate.
"Wanna take part?" I asked my son, hastily running a hand over his forearm.
