Sam spent Monday morning at work getting back up to speed. A week off of work meant a lot of emails to read and respond to, and it was noon by the time she was done. Slipping out for lunch, she stopped by a pharmacy to get the morning after pill. It was the only thing that made sense but she still felt a twinge of regret upon taking it. The path not taken.
Now with her head freed from work and worry, she turned her attention to memories of last night. She felt a twinge whenever she sat down as a physical reminder of it. His size, his enthusiasm.
In the light of day her mind was a mix of regret and joy. It should never have happened, and who knew how it would affect her relationship with her son, but it had been so very good. Never before had any other lover clicked with her needs so completely. There was usually some awkwardness and some feeling out as her lovers got accustomed to what she liked and how she liked it. Last night it was very smooth and natural.
Sam pushed down those thoughts. That way lay madness. She was determined that her and Jake put the last 24 hours behind themselves. All they had to do was return to the world as it was last week.

Jake spent the day at school with his head in the clouds. He did nothing but replay the memories of last night over and over in his head. It was incredible to him, what he and his Mom had done. He knew it was wrong but he didn't care. It had been his first time having sex and it had lived up to every one of his dreams. All he could think about was doing it again of course, but they had both agreed it couldn't happen again. Well. His mother had agreed. He had gone along because it made sense but that didn't mean he wouldn't jump at the chance if it came up again.
Jake got home at 3 and noticed a plain brown box on the step as he walked up to the door. Grabbing it he saw it was addressed to his Mom, so he left it on the kitchen counter.
He finished some homework and went for a swim but his heart wasn't into it. He wanted his Mom to get home. He knew nothing would happen, he just wanted to spend time with her.
At 4pm he wandered into the kitchen and looked at the box. It had to be the gardening equipment she had ordered. Thinking he could get it set up or put away, Jake opened the box. Inside was a colourful box with the words 'Peter Pounder' on it, with a picture of a very lifelike, though large, penis. He half-laughed and picked up the box to get a closer look. His Mom bought a dildo! He glanced down at his crotch in his shorts and wondered, it seemed like it could be close to his size.
He thought about his Mom using it on herself and couldn't see it. It didn't seem like her type of thing. Besides, she didn't need this type of thing if she had a real life alternative.
He left the opened shipping box on the counter for his Mom to find. He figured there wasn't any point in hiding the fact that he found it. They might even laugh about it.

Sam got home, tired and ready to sit down for a while before dinner. She dropped her stuff at the door and spotted the opened box on the counter. There it was, sitting proudly perched upright inside, the dildo she'd ordered a couple days ago. She giggled nervously as she realized Jake must have opened it. What did he think? As she looked at it in the flesh, so to speak, it was pretty close to the one her son was packing in his underwear. His balls were bigger, she noted, critically.
Jake came downstairs after he heard her moving around. He smiled.
"Looks like you really know what you like," he said. "Is this to replace the real thing?"
Sam stiffened. "That's not how a son talks to his mother. Remember that we're moving on from yesterday, right?" Her words were more severe than her tone.
Jake nodded. "Sorry, it slipped. I'll be better."
He walked up and gave her a hug. She returned it with a squeeze. "How are you?" she said into his shoulder.
"Do you mean: 'Am I scarred for life?'" he asked.
She nodded.
"I am just fine. I had a great day, though I didn't hear much of my classes. Last night was the best day of my life. I wouldn't trade it for anything."
"I'm glad you're not scarred." She hesitated and then said, "I enjoyed it very much too. I wouldn't say it was the best decision I have ever made, but I also wouldn't take it back. But that is in the past."
They stood there in silence for another 30 seconds, enjoying the hug. Sam was surprised that she didn't feel anything growing below but she was also proud of her son. He was doing his best to follow her wishes.
Jake fought harder to not get an erection during that hug than he ever had. All of his old tricks while also blocking out the feel of his Mom's tits pushed against his chest. It was difficult, but it was what his Mom would want. No temptation, just a mother and son hug.
They parted, and Sam went to grab a drink and sit down for a bit. "TV later?" she asked.
He grinned and nodded. "Love to."
They continued in this routine for the next two days. Neither of them speaking of their adventures on Sunday, but both aware of the other in a way they'd never had before. They got back into a rhythm of companionship that was comfortable without being intimate.

Wednesday arrived, the day Bill was to return home.
Sam got a text as she was driving home from her husband. He was in a taxi on the way to the house. She smiled and then panicked a bit. Had they cleaned everything up? Was there any evidence of Sunday they'd missed? She started driving faster to get home before him, but then forced herself to slow down. They hadn't missed anything. She had gone over the place with a special eye for anything out of place. She'd even put the dildo away in her dresser.
She had missed her husband and would show him how much tonight in bed.
Just as she pulled into their driveway Bill's taxi pulled away. Sam parked and hopped out of her car, quickly joining Bill at the door. She could feel her smile practically splitting her face in two. She wrapped him up in a big hug, but was disappointed to only feel a limp arm around her back. Bill gave her a quick kiss but it wasn't a passionate kiss of a person missing their lover. It was the kiss of a husband and wife who've been together for 20 years. She buried her feeling of dissatisfaction though when she looked at his face and saw the fatigue drawn in his features.
"Long flight?" she asked.
He nodded wearily. "Very. I got rerouted through Chicago. I should have been home hours ago. Are you good? I'm going to lie down for a while."
Sam was glad to have him back, but recognized she'd have to wait for a more energetic greeting. "I'm good, you go lie down," she said. "Do you want me to call you for dinner? I was going to make some chicken."
