I stood quickly and looked at Brad. "No fuckin' way! Brad....you and mom?" Brad stood there looking as if he just gave military secrets to the Iraqi leaders. His face was ashen and his mouth was open like he was trying to suck the words back in. "Brad, are you and mom doing it?"
"Jenni you have to understand how hard it's been on mom since dad left. I'm the man of the house now. I had to do something!" he said, trying to justify this to me. "Anyway, what's the difference between what me and mom do as compared to what we just did? I'm related to you just as closely as I am to mom!"
He was right. There was no way I could argue with him about it. It was just as wrong. My feelings of disgust went away and I slowly walked back toward my little brother. "How long....when did it start?" I stammered.
"About seven months ago. Right after school started in the fall." he answered.
"How did it start? I mean....damn Brad.... what happened?"
"Come on. I need something to drink. I'll explain." he said as he led me to the kitchen to retrieve some more sodas. We sat at the table sipping our drinks slowly. Brad sat his down and turned to me. "Jenni, you had it a lot easier than me and mom. I'm not saying that dad's leaving didn't hit you hard because I know it did. But you had your studies and your friends down at college to help you along. I had it easy. I was the one who saw dad with that woman. I was glad to see him go in a way. Mom, on the other hand, was devastated. She couldn't understand why or how it happened. She told me that she had always given dad anything he asked for in their marriage." I sat back and listened intently as Brad continued. "I heard her tell someone that she did things for dad that she never even thought of in bed. She said how much she enjoyed sex with him. She had no idea he would do what he did."
"Brad, I know how she must have felt. That still doesn't tell me how you two ended up in bed." I said as he gulped from the can.
"Well, one night mom was kinda just moping around the house. You know mom doesn't mope. I asked her what was the matter and she broke down and cried. I went to her and hugged her. She was sobbing and blubbering on my shoulder about maybe if she was prettier or maybe if she would lose a little weight, dad might not have had the affair."
"Mom's not overweight. She's still as beautiful as ever." I said.
"I know! And I told her that! Well, she just kinda hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. I guess I was caught up in the moment, but I told her that dad was a fool and if I were him, I'd never leave the bed. I don't remember exactly what happened after that, but the next thing I remember was me having my tongue in her mouth and her squeezing my crotch." He gulped from the can again. "I guess I just couldn't resist her just as I couldn't resist you. You're both so beautiful."
I sat and absorbed what Brad had said. I agreed that mom was beautiful and still sexy at almost forty. I still doubted that I could ever look at her the same way though. "How often do you do it?" I wondered, my curiosity getting the best of me.
"It's not like we do it all the time. Maybe ten or twelve times a month." Brad finished his soda and threw it toward the garbage can. It missed and hit the floor with a hollow clang. He got up to collect the rebound and I noticed his nice ass as he bent over.
"Maybe she can't resist that tight ass." I said as he straightened up. Brad turned and looked at me strangely.
"You know, mom said that exact thing when I left for school this morning. We were eating breakfast and she wondered if she could make it through your stay without at least grabbing my ass. She said she couldn't resist it."
"Did you two discuss what you were going to do while I was here?" I wondered.
"Oh, hell yeah. We even had a nice long session last night to help hold us over until we had the chance again." he answered.
I started to feel slightly aroused as he told me this. I couldn't believe how, in just a short time, I went from being repulsed by Brad's revelation to being turned on by it! "Well I guess you don't have to worry about that now, do you?" I said kind of chuckling.
"We planned on not doing anything unless you went out or something." he said. I began to think of the thoughts I used to have about my mom when I was younger. I remembered how we used to go into dressing and changing rooms and how comfortable we used to be when we were naked together. I remembered how I used to secretly steal glances of mom's neatly trimmed pubic hair. How I loved it when her nipples hardened as we exposed our warm flesh to the cool air of the local department store. I never told anyone about these feelings. But for some reason I couldn't resist telling Brad these secrets now. As he sat and listened to my memories he interrupted me only to say how easily mom's nipples still harden. "God, as soon as you touch her, they get hard in a second!" Brad sat back again and looked at me strangely.
"What?" I asked.
"Did you ever dream of doing mom?" He leaned forward as he asked, awaiting my answer.
"Yeah, I guess I did a few times. I used to listen to her getting off and pretend it was me doing it. I even played with myself and fantasized that mom was the one making me come." I answered.
