“Of course not! I wanted it, too.”

She only appears slightly appeased.

“Seriously, ” I say firmly.

“But I’m...your friend’s mom! I’m twice your age. I should know better!”

“Stop.” I cut the air with my hand. “Back it up. I was into it just as much as you were. If anything, I probably knew what was happening before you did, and I encouraged you. I feel responsible.” Mindy starts to shake her head and open her mouth, but I persist. “I wanted to do it because you turn me on—and because we have a connection.” Her mouth snaps closed, perhaps worried where this is going. “It felt right, and I don’t regret it at all. Besides, seeing you cum so hard is going to give me something to fantasize about later.”

She smirked, then let out another long sigh. “Well, you sound pretty sure about it at least. I still need time to think about it... Don’t get me wrong,” she smiles, “it was the best sex I’ve had in...well...since I was your age.” Her smile turns cockeyed. “But you need to stay Lewis’ friend. That is more important to me than my sex life, and this could jeopardize that.”

“I see... I’m going to hang with him tomorrow. If I feel like there are any lingering concerns after that, I’ll let you know.”

“That sounds fair.” She looks me over again. “You go straighten yourself out. I need to change, too, then we can think about finishing this puzzle.”
