Janey sat across from her son at the kitchen table, watching him wolf down his dinner while surfing on his phone. She opened her mouth to speak a couple of times, but returned to a pensive silence after each attempt. She was testing the appropriate phrases in her head.
"You know, Jacob," she finally began, "I never approved of it when you began your relationship with Mel?" Melanie was one of Janey's oldest friends and she had never, in her wildest dreams, thought a woman like herself (in her late forties with a couple of grown kids and settling down to life of sagging, wrinkling, pre-menopausal middle age) would've caught the attention of a teenage boy with runaway raging hormones. "But, I accept that you're old enough to make your own decisions." Jacob grunted and nodded, his eyes not leaving his phone.
"So I also guess you're also old enough to have an adult conversation about... things. For want of a better word." She smiled but her son did not reflect the gesture, just carried on stuffing his face and wiping his thumb across his digital screen.
"So, I was speaking to her earlier, Mel I mean, about your date last night? And she... she told me, well, not to, you know... she told me you gave her five orgasms!" Jason paused surfing and finally looked up, a questioning face stuffed with food. "I mean... five?! Five orgasms? Big ones too."
Jason shrugged, his eyebrows expressing his confusion that his mother would be repeating the word 'orgasms' at him over dinner. His mother's face looked expectant. What on Earth, he was thinking, was she waiting for him to say? So he said, "Yep." and went back to shovelling his food down his throat.
Janey got up and began pottering around the kitchen, clearly agitated but unclear how to proceed. Jason plonked his fork down on his plates and leaned back, full-bellied and oblivious to her growing annoyance.
"Can I just ask?" Janey sat back down, opposite her boy who had resumed swiping through
meaningless crap on his phone, "How? I mean... how? Five? That's, I don't want to say incredible but, it's... it's not usual, you know? Better than average, I should say."
"What exactly are you asking me, Mom?"
"Look, I'll admit it. I'm jealous, okay? It seems like a many a moon since I had a decent one, singular, but ...ah, don't give me that look, if you're old enough to do it then you're old enough to discuss it." Jacob looked into the eyes of his mother, eyes the same colour as his own, and squirmed.
"Surely you've... cum more than once before?"
