"Hey mom, what are your plans this weekend?"
"I haven't even thought about it yet, just trying to get threw this week! lol why what's up?"
"You're not gonna believe this... my coworker gave me a two night stay at the casino downtown for covering his shift. A girl I've been seeing just cancelled and I can't find anybody else to go."
"Ugh that's a bummer she bailed, you really want to spend a weekend at the casino with your mother? I'm flattered."
It sounded like it'd be fun but a part of me thought it'd be weird sharing a hotel with my grown son for a couple days.
"You know I enjoy spending time with you and as much as I hate to admit this I've missed your company, always having our late night convos in the living room while you smoked a couple cigarettes before heading up to bed."
I kind of blushed after reading that text, he wasnt lying though we'd end everyday catching up as I treated myself to a few cigarettes taking a load off.
"Awww honey, I miss that to.. let me sleep on it and make sure I don't have anything going and I will let you know by noon tomorrow, how's that sound?"
"Fair enough, love ya!"
"Love ya to, im gonna smoke one more cigarette and call it a night."
It was getting close to noon and I still haven't made up my mind, I decided to give my sister a call and she what she thought of it.
"Well I get why you're skeptical but at the end of the day its not that big of a deal.. you think you're the first mom to share a hotel with their adult son?"
"That's true.. you know what, fuck it. I could use a weekend out of the house."
"Yes you do! Enjoy yourself! Don't drink to much.. you know how you get when your drunk."
"Oh shut up sis!"
I called my son and told him I am in, I could hear his excitement threw the phone.
"Okay I'm going to go there around 3:00 to check in, I'll let you know all the information when i get there."
"Can't wait!" I said.
My son called me Friday afternoon around 4:00 and told me we were all set and checked in, I was already on my way down there anyway I couldn't sit around at the house any longer.
"So were in room 612, it's only got one bed but it does have a pull out couch. It was either this room or the other one that did have two beds but it was a non smoking room so I figured it'd make your life easier being able to light up in bed opposed to going downstairs everytime you wanted one."
"You didn't have to do that! You are such a sweetheart, if the beds big enough maybe we can make it work."
As I pulled up to the hotel my phone rang, I answered it but he wasn't responding to me.. it was a butt dial as I went to hang up and walk in the hotel I heard my son mumbling in the background.
"Okay the hard parts done, now I can sit back and watch my milf mom smoke some cigarettes and hopefully muster up the balls to finally make a move on her."
I couldn't believe what I just heard.. My heart began racing and I started panicking.. I almost hopped in my car and drove off but the valet drive already had my keys.
I told myself to forget what I just heard and let it go.. another part of me was proud knowing I still got it.. let's just go along with it I thought getting off the elevator.
I knocked on the door as my son opened it putting his hands out and pulled me in for a long tight hug.
"So glad you decided to come, I missed you."
"I missed you to sweetie, it's going to be a good weekend!"
I settled in and my son prepared us a drink as I sat on the bed putting my feet up for a few minutes before we went downstairs.
"Cheers!" I said tapping our glasses and taking a long healthy sip to try and take the edge off.
My son went sat over on the desk chair that was right next to the bed and turned it around so he was facing me.
"So whats the plan for tonight? Want to just hit the slots and tables?"
"Thats what I was thinking.. hopefully i get lucky this weekend." My son said on accident.
"Excuse me? Did you mean have good luck?"
"That's embarrassing haha yes."
"Didn't you say this was a smoking room? I don't see an ashtray."
He sprung up out of the chair and went over to the little bar where the housekeepers set them after cleaning up.
"While your yo grab my pack out of my purse please."
"Ah I really appreciate you sacrificing a bed just so your mom could smoke her cigarettes, you sure you don't mind?"
I already knew he preferred it this way overhearing him when he butt dialed me but I just wanted to see how he responded.
I dragged on my cigarette and slowly exhaled a cloud tilting my head back, it was such a satisfying first drag comfortably laying in bed.
"You don't have to answer that, obviously you don't mind or else you wouldn't of done it.. you're a good son."
