"Well, it has to be right away. I need to look for a teaching job for the fall."
"You could just stay home. I make enough to support you."
"I'd be so bored Kip."
"It's bad enough when she's off in the summer," Colton said, around a mouthful.
"Swallow first," Mandy said automatically, her eyes still on Kip. He could see a slow burning heat in them. He shifted in his seat, feeling his pants grow tighter. Hopefully after she moved in he'd stop feeling like he hadn't sex in twelve years.
Mandy smiled knowingly. "We should get Colton home to bed."
"Aww mom," he said. But a warning look from the mom silenced his protests.
"Come on, I'll help you."
"All right." The kid wasn't thrilled, but he was more motivated to move.

Mandy was sitting in the living room, watching television while Kip tucked Colton in. She heard Kip come up behind her and put his hand on her shoulder. She turned and lifted her face for a kiss. She marvelled at the comfortable feeling between them, like they'd been a family the entire time. But, there was also the same sexual heat between, somewhat tempered by age and responsibilities. But, she wanted him just as much as she did when she was twenty.
More amazingly to her, was that he wanted her just as much. He couldn't seem to get enough at times. Perhaps, because the times between their visits could be quite expansive. It might slow some once they were together for basically the entire summer.
"Colton wants to talk to you," Kip informed her.
She stood immediately, turning off her desire and switching to mom mode. "I'll be right back." She gave him the remote, not that he'd find much, it was only basic cable. He nodded and kissed her again.
Mandy wandered down the hall, realizing for the first time, that she had to sell her place. That in a few weeks she and Colton would be leaving their little house. She'd bought the townhouse four years ago, after scrimping for the down payment, and a little help from her parents.
She was a little sat about and it must have showed on her face as she went into Colton's room and sat on the bed.
"What's wrong mom?" Colton asked.
"Oh nothing darling. I was just feeling a little sad that we'll be leaving here."
"To live with Kip right?" He looked a little worried.
