I put on the Halloween costume that Mom bought me and shook my head. "Mom, you can't be serious," I complained loudly.
"Come out here so I can see it," she insisted.
I stood in front of her and put my hands on my hips. "I'm not wearing this," I stated.
"Why not?! You look great!"
It was a Tarzan costume. A loincloth and leather sandals. The loincloth was basically bikini briefs with leather ties on the sides and rough-cut leather triangles that hung loose in the front and back. The briefs weren't visible because of the hanging leather panels, so people might think I was naked underneath.
That was it. A whole lot of my skin and a few bits to hide my junk.
"I can't wear this in public," I said. "It's ridiculous."
Mom jumped off the sofa and put her hands on my broad chest. "It's not ridiculous! You look hot!" she insisted and looked up at me with her big brown eyes and batted her long eyelashes. "Please, honey?"
It was always hard to deny her when she looked at me like that. "Come on, Mom. I might as well be naked. It's crazy."
"It's an adult party, Ryan. Everyone tries to come up with the sexiest costumes. And since this year's theme is 'Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses' I think that Tarzan 'King of the Jungle' will blow away all of the other costumes."
"Make Dad wear it then," I grumbled.
"Your dad doesn't have your muscles." Her warm hands slid from my pecs to my shoulders and on to my big biceps, which she lightly squeezed. She could tell I wasn't convinced, so she added, "There are always young women at these parties, dressed as sexily as they can. Don't you want to catch their attention?"
"I don't know, Mom," I wavered.
Her lush little body pressed against me. "Pleeeeease?" she begged.
I gave in, as I almost always did when she wanted something. "Okay. I'll wear it," I reluctantly agreed. I was 6'2" tall and 190 pounds of muscle, so showing off my body wasn't going to embarrass me.
"Excellent. You won't regret it, honey." She kissed my cheek.
The Wallace family's annual Halloween party really was a big deal in Knoxville. My parents were proud that they'd been invited for eight straight years.
Dad was a professor at the university, and his female students often had crushes on him because he was tall, slim and handsome.
Mom was a successful author of romance novels. One of my friends described her as a "pint size sex kitten", which all the other guys agreed was perfect. At 42 years old, her tiny 5-foot tall body was perfectly toned and sported lush C-cup boobs and a round ass. Shoulder-length black hair framed a sultry face highlighted by plush lips and naturally long eyelashes.
This was the first year that our family's invitation included me. I was 19 and just started college at the University of Tennessee. I had an athletic scholarship to play baseball. I guess that caught the attention of the Wallace family when they made the guest list.
Mom picked up a bottle and told me, "You need to use this every day until the party."
"What is it?"
"It's a moisturizer with a tanning agent in it," she explained.
"I don't want an orange fake tan, Mom."
She shook her little head and squirted moisturizer on her hand. "It's not like that, Ryan," she informed me. "This is quality stuff that looks perfectly real. Each time you use it has a light tanning effect, but if you use it every day you'll have a nice even tan by the party. It will get rid of your 'farmer's tan'".
My arms and face did have a darker than than my pale torso. I sighed, "I guess if I'm going to be practically naked I should try to look my best."
"You're going to look awesome." She stepped behind me and began to massage the moisturizer onto my back with slow strokes. It felt good.
"How am I supposed to apply it to my back every day?" I asked. I was a freshman at the local university and lived in a dorm.
"You don't want your roommate Stan to do it?" Mom teased and laughed. "I'll do it for you, of course. Come by every afternoon and I'll take care of it."
Her tiny hands finished rubbing the lotion on my back. "You should become a masseuse. My back feels great," I told her.
"Good. That will be an added enticement to get you over here every day," she replied.
Suddenly Mom untied the leather stings on each side of my loincloth. I grabbed it to prevent it from falling off in front, but I felt the back hang down. "Mom!" I yelped.
She saucily reasoned, "Your butt is very pale, honey. It needs the lotion so white skin doesn't show around the loincloth."
"Christ, Mom. I can do that myself!"
"You can't see your own butt," she pointed out. "This will only take a minute."
Her lotion-slick hands caressed my butt and I involuntarily tensed back there. "That feels weird," I complained.
"Feels good to me! You have a great butt, Ryan." She pressed harder, kneading my glutes. Then she lightly smacked my ass and announced, "All done! That wasn't so bad, was it?"
"No, I guess not." My cock had swelled from the attention she gave my butt.
Mom retied my loincloth strings then gave me a hug and said, "Thank you for being a good sport about your costume, honey."
"No problem, Mom," I responded. "But if a bunch of fat old women try to grope me at this party, I'm going to be pissed."
"The Wallaces only invite the best-looking people in Knoxville to their Halloween party, Ryan. No fat old broads. Like I said, there will be plenty of pretty girls your age. Lots of beautiful married ladies too."
"It sounds wild. It's not an orgy, is it?"
Mom made a face. "Eww. No. Just people dancing and having fun. What makes it interesting is that couples don't stick together all night. Everyone mixes and mingles on their own. So it's very likely that some married women will ask you to dance."
"And that's okay?" I asked.
"Of course."
"Will you ask men to dance with you?"
Mom nodded and smiled. "One more thing, honey. Will you apply the lotion to my back? I want to even out my tan too."
"Sure. No problem."
She pulled her t-shirt off over her head and laid face down on the sofa. Her hands reached behind her to unfasten her bra and move the strap out of the way. "Have at it," she said.
I squirted lotion on my hands and rubbed them together to warm them. Starting at her neck, I slowly smoothed the moisturizer on evenly.
"Mmm," she purred. "That feels good."
It didn't take long to cover her slim little back. "Want me to do your butt?" I teased.
She chuckled. "I'll be wearing a miniskirt so that's not necessary."
"Who are you going as?" I asked as I hooked her bra strap for her.
"Cleopatra."
"Did she wear miniskirts?"
"This Cleopatra does." Mom sat up, giving me a look at her boobs in her thin, lacy bra before putting on her t-shirt again.

The next afternoon I walked into our family home and called out, "I'm here for my back rub!" Mom's an author who writes at home so I knew she'd be there.
