Honesty is the best policy

You could see your bag just to the edge of the doorway where Lucy was standing but you stopped walking towards it with her now turning it up, finding it hard to come up with an explanation for you grabbing a key when Mom was supposed to be working away in the kitchen.

From the way Mom stood however, her hands were still behind her back and hidden from Lucy’s view, giving her plausible deniability if she wanted to keep the fact that she was handcuffed a secret.

“Mom, you look a bit flushed, is everything okay?” Lucy asked, trying to keep up a concerned expression.

It felt like a strange position to be in. Lucy was the one who knew everything but she now put up an act in an attempt to tease Mom and now Mom seemed to be in the position to hide something, the two of them briefly looking at each other without a word being said between them. And then there was you who found yourself stuck in the middle of them.

You looked to Mom to see what her response would be and found her looking in your direction and meeting your eye, taking a deep breath as she considered her next words carefully.

“Your brother asked me to help him out and I gave him a blowjob. Which is quite the challenge when you are locked up like this” Mom revealed, even going as far as turning to the side so that Lucy could see her hands locked behind her back.

Your eyes went wide as you heard her plainly admit what had happened and when you looked to see how Lucy had reacted, she stood there as if her jaw had hit the floor and was completely speechless.

“...Could you get the key sweetie? These are starting to rub my wrists a bit now” Mom asked, powering through your reactions and sounding confident in asking you for assistance.

“Yeah sure” you replied.

Her words broke you out of being stunned and you moved towards Lucy and your bag, keeping your eyes on her as you reached down to find the key.

With you moving about, Lucy also seemed to recover but still watched you grab the key and move back towards Mom without stopping you, only speaking up after she heard the click behind Mom’s back that came with the cuffs unlocking.

“Well, I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. I didn’t think you owned a pair of handcuffs like that though Mom” Lucy added, trying again to fluster Mom.

“Oh no these are your brother’s, but I do feel like I need to ask later where he got them… That can wait for now though” Mom replied, not being phased by Lucy’s comments.

Again, there was a moment of silence but Lucy didn’t get shocked like last time, instead she just looked slightly disappointed at the lack of Mom’s reaction.

“Alright, I’ll leave you two lovebirds alone then” Lucy replied, turning around and heading back towards the living room where she had been relaxing originally.

You waited for a few seconds as you heard Lucy walk away and just before you were about to question Mom, she turned to you and wrapped her arms tightly around you with her chin resting on your shoulder.

“Oh that was so so scary! I can’t believe she almost saw me like that. Do you think she knows how embarrassed that made me feel or will she believe me?” Mom asked in a panic, her normal reactions flooding back in now that it was just the two of you.

“You had me believing you so I’m pretty sure Lucy was convinced as well” You admitted, returning the hug now that you had your bearings.

“You said earlier about me being the one to take the lead in this house when it came to the sexual stuff and when I had to answer her and I saw you looking at me, the words just seemed to form in my mouth before I could even think of them! I don’t think I would be upfront like that all the time though, I would have tried covering myself if my hands hadn’t been stuck behind my back” Mom continued, revealing more of her thoughts and loosening the hug slightly so she could look you in the eye again.

“Maybe I should have you handcuffed more often then” you said, chuckling to yourself, seeing that Mom didn’t find the joke as funny as you did before you carried on.

“Honestly… I think Lucy enjoys seeing you flustered so while it was nice to see her like that instead, your usual reaction to things is something she probably looks forward to. It was a good step forward though. The honesty doesn’t need to be as blunt as that if you don’t want it to be so I’m sure there’s some middle ground we can have where you can feel more comfortable and Lucy still gets to have her fun” you explained, seeing Mom start to calm down as you spoke.

“I know she likes teasing me but…I think I can work up to something like that… the honesty thing” Mom replied after mulling it over.

“Good! Now, I think I need to leave before I get too handsy with you again and I should probably make sure Lucy isn’t in too bad of a mood now that she couldn’t mess with you” you said, giving her one final squeeze and a kiss on the forehead before you **** yourself to separate from her.

“Good idea, I really do need to start with dinner otherwise at this rate, we will be eating at midnight” Mom joked, letting you pull away before she headed over to the sink with the apron over her arm to go wash her hands.

Before you walked away, you grabbed your phone and the handcuffs with the key still in hand to put back in your bag, bringing it with you as you went back towards the front of the house.

You hadn’t expected to do anything with Mom when you first entered the house, let alone **** her to her knees and tie her up like that but you were certainly glad you got the opportunity to do so.

Even just having her act honest like that in front of Lucy seemed like a huge step forward in progress even if it did mean you now had to do a bit of damage control with Lucy.

You still also needed to figure out what Sarah was up to which finally made you remember that she had also apparently talked to Lucy earlier while you had been in the kitchen, Lucy revealing that in the text messages you had exchanged earlier.

Lucy: First Sarah and now you, why am I so popular in this house all of a sudden? What’s do you wanna talk about

Was the text you saw when you went back through the messages, now reviewing it with a much clearer head than you had done before.

Whatever she was doing, you wanted to see what she had told Lucy first before you went and asked Sarah directly, making you drop your bag by the bottom of the stairs as you went looking for Lucy.
