Mom's "Best Friend" (Part 10) - TG Caption

    I was standing around in the kitchen, prepping me and June’s morning coffee when I felt someone take a handful of my ass and kiss me from behind. There she was. A nice sign of affection to open up the day… and close it out too, more often than not. When Alex wasn’t around it didn’t really matter, but even when he was, it wasn’t as if he didn’t understand. It wasn’t weird to see your Moms kiss, so what was one more step? In any case, she came to me with something. A handful of papers and a grin. “So, I was thinking… we're married now…” She sat across from me at the counter. “And it has been great, and we're happy, so I got thinking what if we… shook it up a little bit, so to speak?”

    “...do you seriously have something else in mind for bed?” We have had this conversation more than a few times. I feel like we’ve done everything hot that there is to do, but it wasn’t as if I wasn’t open to suggestions from her. I could never say no to her.

    “No! It's not always that!” She reprimanded me playfully. Could she really blame me for thinking it was sex-related when that had been such a running theme in our lives recently? “What I mean is… well, it's hard to really say… what if we had a kid?” A kid? That was an odd suggestion. We were both parents to Alex now… so in a sense we already had a son. Although that didn’t really seem right to me when that son was a perfectly self-sufficient adult that used to be… me.

    “Hm? We do have a kid.” I was proud to make a show of how I had accepted a certain form of motherhood, as weak as it was.

    “W-well, yes, we do. But I meant one between me and you… I've been thinking about it a lot.” Between us?! I couldn’t even fathom the idea. I mean, it wasn’t really possible was it? Did she intend for someone else to impregnate her? I guess… I guess that would work. But wow, a kid…

    “I don't know… I hadn't even considered the possibility.” Of course, I was a bit apprehensive. I hadn’t ever considered getting someone pregnant the way that I was now… And before I changed I certainly hadn’t considered getting June pregnant. “How would I get you pregnant?” 

    “Oh no, no, I'm not doing that again.” She immediately blew back the idea. What did she want then? Did she not just tell me that she wanted to have a baby? She then got really excited. Too excited, probably. Her eyes wide, she stood up and leaned towards me. “I want you to carry my child!” It was then that I noticed the papers she had brought. It explained a process we could undergo… a way for us both to take part. IVF, one of us would provide the egg and the other would carry it… I would carry it. Carry a baby… our baby.

    “W-woah hold on now I… I don't know.” Was I ready for a pregnancy? I guess if it was with her then… maybe.

    “Well, give it some thought, will you? Just say the word and we’ll arrange it.” Not wanting to be pushy she left it at that. My heart was beating out of my chest. That was a lot to take in. But as I reflected on it throughout the day the idea became more appealing. She would put a baby in me… and our love would create a new life for the two of us to raise. I don’t know if I developed motherly tendencies somewhere along the way, but they seemed to be exhibiting themself.

…

    June got home from work a touch late. As a result, I had an opportunity to surprise her. Clad in a brand new set of lingerie with flowers, I surprised her with my answer to her earlier proposal. This was probably a lot sooner than she ever expected to hear back from me about the issue, but that just made me all the more excited to break the news. “Does this get you in the mood to put a baby in me?”

    She smiled and laughed at me as she shook off my cheesy proposal, before hurriedly taking off her top. “Does it ever…”
