I was enjoying a day off from my mom's real estate business, a business that required us to pretend to be married when we traveled to Canada. That morning, my dad asked me to run to the home warehouse store for something he needed to finish a house project. As I was backing out of the driveway, my mom ran out of the house and jumped in.
"Wait, I'm coming with you! Your dad told me where you are going. I want to look at some rugs," she explained, out of breath.
Her hair still wet, it was obvious she had just jumped out of the shower. Seeing me go to the car through the window, she had quickly thrown on a sweatshirt and some spandex tights. She usually doesn't walk around the house in them, much less go out in public in them, but time was of the essence.
The store was a bit of a drive near the border, the only one around for miles. After parking, I began to open the door, but my mom grabbed my arm.
"Oh no! Wait!" she exclaimed with a panicked look on her face.
"What is it mom?" I wondered.
"It's Sharon Lindstrom!" she said, pointing to a woman just entering the store.
"Who's that?"
"One of the realtors I met from Canada. What is she doing here? I didn't think that we would see anyone from Canada," processing the situation out loud.
Julie's spontaneous decision to go to the store with her son had unintended consequences. When at home, her brain was always in mother/son mode. Her husband/wife masquerade with her son was only reserved for Canada. Now she was stuck miles from home but still in America, unsure what to do. She probably should just wait in the car, a wasted trip. But she had been waiting forever to pick out a new rug for the living room.
"OK, here's the plan," she considered. "Let's get in and out as fast as possible. Stay away from Sharon. If we see her, go in the opposite direction. Worst case, remember to pretend that we are married."
"Got it," nodding my head.
We jumped out of the car and moved quickly into the store. Seeing her reflection in the glass, Julie quickly realized what a bad idea this was. Her hair was still damp from her shower, hastily put up in a ponytail. She had never worn those workout tights in public before, reserving them only for her bedroom treadmill. Their pink camo pattern was certainly attention-getting. She silently cursed herself for choosing the brand that intentionally curved around her round butt deep into her crack. Always conservative in public, she wanted to feel sexy when she worked out. How dumb of her to grab the first thing available in the laundry room.
Worse than that was the sweatshirt she chose. Rather than a large sloppy one that could hide her assets, she had grabbed one that ended at her waist. Despite her efforts, it would not pull down any further. Her exposed ass was one thing, but her private parts were another. The extra small size of the tights molded around her pubic mound, outlining the swollen flesh between her legs.
Walking down the aisles, she was getting double takes from just about everyone, mostly men. She grabbed Dylan's hand, taking the lead, towing him behind her to shield her backside from gawkers. She kept her spare hand in front, swinging over her private area. Looking back at times, she saw her son's eyes focused on her butt. Was that all he thought about? She kept looking back to give him her 'mom look', one that he seemed to only temporarily heed.
Fortunately, the next aisle was empty, and Julie could breathe a little. It was near the back of the store, rarely visited. Dylan was beginning to focus on the items when he heard a familiar voice.
"Dylan! Is that you! It's me Scott. Great to see you."
I turned to see Scott and Josh. Two of my "friends" from college. They had been fairly popular, especially with the girls, but in my mind, still jerks. One of them had grown up in Canada.
My heart was pounding. This was not good. I could sense my mom hiding behind me, her gorgeous blonde hair and pink tights not easy to hide.
Taking a sidestep, Scott asked, "And who is this?" My mom still using me as a shield.
"Oh!" I said. "This is my m--"
"Wife Julie!" my mom said, stepping out from behind me. "I am his wife Julie."
"What? You got married, Dylan. You sly dog!"
Now with Scott and Josh feasting on the flesh of my wife, there was little chance of getting out of the store fast. Wanting to continue looking at my mom's hot body, they kept asking questions. My mom, quicker than me, fielded most of the questions on the fly, which only made them talk longer.
I looked at my phone. "Shoot guys, we are late for an appointment. We gotta run."
I put out my hand and shook each of theirs, saying farewell. My mom tried to do the same, but each one of them went in for a hug instead.
Those perverts! And they went in for the good kind of hug. Keeping their arms low around her waist, they pulled my mom toward them. She had to place her arms around their shoulders, opening up her body to them. Once they got a hold of her, they pulled her tight to them, enjoying her too long for comfort. As the embrace ended, Scott let his hand wander, brushing the slick fabric on the top of my mom's round ass.
My mom was more flushed than I have ever seen her. I grabbed our last item, we paid, and rushed out of the store, never running into her friend Sharon. We rode home in silence, both a bit traumatized by it all. We got home to an empty house, my dad was out working in our shop. My mom seemed visibly upset.
"That was a close one, Dylan. You almost called me your mom," breathing out an audible sigh of relief.
"I know, you really saved the day. You came up with so many good answers to their questions so quickly. I know a lot more about our marriage now!" I smiled, but my mom was still withdrawn.
Suddenly my phone rang. I stepped out and came back in 15 minutes.
"Who was that?" my mom asked.
"Scott, from the store. Can you believe it? He already wants to go on a double date with us."
"No!" my mom shouted. "We are not seeing him again," visibly upset.
"Totally agree," I said. What was up with her, I thought. "I'm glad you said you were my wife. His mom is a realtor in Canada. Our paths might cross again."
Still looking sullen, I asked my mom, "Why are you so upset?"
A blank look was on her face. Finally she said, "Stand up, Dylan. Pretend to be Scott and give me a hug."
"OKAAAY," I replied, a bit confused. Remembering Scott's hug move, I moved in and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her up on her toes, and pressing the length of her body against mine.
