Rising tension

Laura played around on her phone for a while, using a non-data mobile game to help her brain unwind. She felt Dan shift beside her a few times, trying to get comfortable. It took her a moment to realize she was keeping him up and settled down for the night.

At some point during the night, she awoke sweating and needed to use the bathroom. She did her best to crawl off the mattress but it was a lost cause. The blasted thing kept rocking whenever she shifted her weight and woke Dan.

"Sorry," she muttered as she crawled off the bed. The damage was done. "Bathroom. Try to get back to sleep," she encouraged as her frozen toes moved across the concrete and to the bathroom.

She had to remove her undershirt. It was just too hot and she didn't want to have to take another shower in the morning. In the mirror, she could see the large expanse of breast she displayed. She was just glad her son was asleep and wouldn't see her.

The next morning, Laura woke first. She took one look at the time and knew she needed to wake Dan. He looked so peaceful, but he'd be late if he slept in any longer. "Honey, you're going to be late soon," she whispered in his ear and rubbed his arm and shoulder gently.

"Morning," Dan muttered after the second time she tried to wake him, this time by just calling his name.

Laura looked up from her phone. She watched as he sat up and the small sheet they'd got fell away. Dan's cock had slipped through his boxers and was displayed proudly in the air. "Uh, dear, your boxers, please," she choked out and looked back at her phone. It'd been a long time since she'd seen her son's penis.

"Sorry," Dan muttered and quickly shifted beside her.

"Happens," she muttered. "I didn't want to wake you up too early, but you'll be late if you sleep in. I'll make you a bowl of cereal."

"Uh, thanks," he said and rose from the mattress.

She got busy and made them breakfast as Dan got ready for work. He came out to a pink plastic bowl full of his favorite cereal. Dan grimaced but took the offered spoon. "Thank you again," he said.

"Happy to help. I'm going to get a job today. We need it. Even now, I might get one paycheck before the end of the month. That's... well, we'll figure it all out. Oh, and I need to have the post office forward our mail from the... house," she finished. She needed a job, badly. At this point, she might just do whatever was necessary to make sure they were fed.

"We'll get through this," Dan said as he hugged his mother close from behind. He bent down to kiss his mother's shoulder. Halfway through the slightly erotic display of affection, he froze.

"Don't slobber on my shoulder," Laura laughed as she gently pushed back against him, pushing him away. She blinked a little and seemed to realize what might have happened. With a strained smile, she turned her body away from him a little and waved to his breakfast. "Eat," she ordered.

"Yes, ma'am," Dan answered by reflex and moved over to the counter again.
