Torrin
“J ust ignore them, Mom. They hate the fact that you look half your age and have a good backhand.” Those tennis ladies are a bunch of bitches. My mom does not need Botox, nor does she need a private trainer to “help” with her game. But all of them clearly do, since their lips all look like fish, and most of them fuck their trainers versus learning how to play the game better.
“Oh, I miss you so much, Torre. You always know how to make me feel better. I can’t wait to see you this weekend.”
“Me too.” I haven’t seen them since Christmas, so it will be nice having them here. “So, when are you guys coming in?”
“We’ll be there in time for the barbecue. Walter and I got a room at the Hilton, so we’ll get checked in before we come over. Is there anything we can bring?”
“Nope. Just yourselves.”
“So, is Luke excited about the big game?” He’s absolutely thrilled. Going to the college bowl is what he’s dreamed of, and now he may actually get his chance of earning a ring.
“He is!” I tell her. “They all worked so hard this season. They’ve definitely earned it.”
“Yeah, when we spoke to him the other day, he said his coach has been a real drag this season.”
Yeah, the coach has been a nightmare, but Luke spoke to him before the last game and told him that if he didn’t learn to cool his shit, they would intentionally lose the bowl game for him. I’m proud of Luke for sticking up to the jerk. The few practices I watched, the guy was a real ass.
“Yeah, but after this game, Luke won’t have to deal with him anymore.” And he won’t have any more practices, which means we’ll have more time together.
“That is true. I bet he’s looking forward to that. But I will say, despite dealing with that jerk, Lukas has seemed really happy these last couple of months. He’s been calling Walter a lot and opening up to us about life. It’s been nice. I know Walter appreciates it.”
I look over at Luke lounging on his bed. He does look happy, smiling as he watches me. We’re both very happy. These last few months have been pretty spectacular.
“I think you being there has reminded him what family is all about. Both of you seem great.”
“We’ve grown really close,” I tell her, giving him a wink. He waggles his brow, crooking his finger for me to come to him. “Mom, I need to get going.” I climb over his waist, feeling how hard he is as I sit down. “Text me when you guys get on the road and safe travels. Can’t wait to see you.” He thrusts up against me and I stifle my gasp.
“Okay, love you, sweetheart.”
“Love you too, Mom.”
I click end and toss my phone onto the bed.
“You are a very naughty boy.” I rock forward, grinding against his ridge. “You’re going to have to behave while they’re in town.”
“I’ll be a good boy. But right now, I need you to fuck my brains out.”
I’d be happy to go for a ride.
