He did not want to leave the twelve room white Georgian house, surrounded by four acres of wooded pasture, where he had grown up. He looked at the picture of the military academy selected by his mother. The caption said that the Hartford-Abernathy Academy trained the leaders of tomarrow. Even at the age of 16, Tommy knews real leaders did not depend on military boarding schools to insure their success. Real leaders created their own futures. Tommy knews he needed a plan to deal with his mother. The sharp staccato sound of high heeled shoes clicking on the slate covered foyer announced the arrival of Tommy's mother. He hoped she would pass by the library and go upstairs. He needed time to think. After 18 years of marriage, his parents were divorcing. The clicking taps faded as Mary Elizabeth Drummond stepped onto the persian carpet and into the library. With an analytical eye, Tommy watched her cross the room. She was an attractive, tall, redheaded woman, fond of wearing formal ankle length dresses. She had the errect posture of an equestrienne. She was thin, but prominent breasts help round out her figure removing any doubt that she was female. Her pale white face with a light scattering of freckles contrasted nicely with her radiant sunset-red hair. There were a few wrinkles in the corners of her eyes and mouth but no other signs of her fourty years of age. She was still wearing her wedding ring. Tommy knew this was for his benefit. The ring would come off as soon as he had departed for the Academy. "Well, I see you found the Hartford-Abernathy Catalog," Mary said approaching her son cautiously. "What do you think?" "I like the idea of building for the future," said Tommy surprising himself as well as his mother. Expecting a protest, his mother automatically replied with a vague rebuttal. "You need the independence and being around other young men your age will help you develop." "I just hope I fit in," says Tommy looking up at his mother with a worried expression. "I'm sure you'll do just fine," said his mother patting the back of his head with her hand. "You leave tomarrow." Tommy can almost feel his mother's heart skip with joy at how easy it was all turning out. His mother would not have to share the house with anyone. Tommy knew all about the property settlement. Private detectives hired by both Mr. and Mrs. Drummond attempted to find evidence of infidelity or improprieties that might impact the division of assests. They were not successful. Mary Elizabeth Drummond would end up with the house and about four million in stocks. Charles Drummond would keep his Overseas Investment Business, valued at about seven million, and the condominium in town. Not all of these monetary details had been resolved and the final papers still had to be signed. According to the divorce attorneys, the final details could drag on for months. Before any of the legal arrangements were finalized, Tommy will be living at the military academy. Two weeks later, returning from a solitary shopping trip, Mary Drummond, was surprised to hear her son playing the piano in the music room. His face reflected defeat and resignation. He stopped playing when she entered the room, but impolitely continued staring into the sheet music. "Tommy, why aren't you at the Academy?" "I can't." "You can't what?" "I don't fit in." "Do you need an increase in your expense account?" "No, that's not it." "OK, then tell me the problem," Mary says sitting down beside her son on the piano bench and putting her arm around him. "Well, it's like this," explained Tommy. He tells his mother that the other boys had formed an exclusive elite group called 'The Officer's Club'. Once accepted into this group, your future at Hartford-Abernathy Academy was assured. Those not accepted were shunned with a code of silence. Students outside the clique were treated as if they did not exist. Not being a member of 'The Officer's Club' made matriculation at the Academy intolerable. "Surely, there must be something you can do to be accepted," his mother persisted. Tommy looked up into his mother's green eyes before answering. "I have been accepted, but first I must pass the initiation test." Mary frowned. "Dean Atkinson assured me that there are no hazing initiations anymore at the Academy. Hazing has been outlawed." "It's not hazing, Mom." "Well, then be a man, and explain it to your mother," Mary said, affectionately patting the back of Tommy's head. "It's simple. I need to make a videotape with your camcorder, return to Hartford-Abernathy with it, and I'll be accepted." "Well," said Mary standing up with relief, "If there's any way I can help you, just let me know." "Actually, you can help," says Tommy. "How?" "The videotape was supposed to be about you." "Me?" "Yes, the other boys saw the picture of you that I took with me to the Academy. They think you're a very pretty woman." "Well, thank you," says Mary who thought she was very well preserved. She had not had any male appreciation of her appearance since the divorce. Mary had been having self-doubts about her ability to compete with other women. It felt nice to be admired. It felt even better to be admired by her son's young college prep roommates. "They want a videotape of you undressing," says Tommy with a look of defeat in his face. "What!" "I knew it wouldn't work," says Tommy. "Why would they want that?" "Because I don't have a sister." "So?" "So, the other boys have to bring back videotapes of their sisters." "Humm, I think I understand now. This is sort of a candid camera thing, catch the girls unaware, like a peeping boy videotape, am I right?" "Yes, but I wasn't supposed to tell you." "What did they expect?" "I was supposed to hide under your bed or in your closet and videotape you without your knowing." Tommy hangs his head down in shame. Mary patted the back of Tommy's head in consolation. "You did the right thing. Don't feel ashamed." Tommy raised his head and stared into his mother's breasts without answering. Suddenly, Mary stopped talking and left the room. Tommy was uncertain how to re-open the conversation. All during dinner, Mary looked at her son, Tommy, with long curious glances. Her face was a mystery. Did she pity him? Was she trying to think up an alternative to his initiation? Would she go along with it? It was impossible to determine. After dinner, Mary asked Tommy into the library for a talk. He noticed the furniture was re-arranged. His father's books were gone, replaced with a collection of handpainted plates, the rosewood table had been moved to the far end of the room and a group of chairs placed in a semi-circle. The entire atmosphere of the room had changed. In less then two weeks, it had become her room. When his mother picked up her wine glass, Tommy noticed the pale white band of bare skin on her wedding ring finger. Tommy could feel his insides shaking. Pouring herself another glass of white wine, Mary Elizabeth Drummond sat in one of the chairs in the small semi-circle and motioned Tommy to sit beside her. Rotating the wine glass slowly between the fingers of her two hands, Mary started speaking. "If you bring back this videotape, are you certain to be accepted?" "Yes, absolutely." "Who will look at the videotape?" "Just the other boys. Some of the other tapes of kid's sisters have already been recorded over with television shows." "Do you want to do it?" "I'm not sure. It's up to you." "Yes, but what do you want?" "I'd like to do it." As his mother poured herself a third glass of her wine, Tommy could tell that the idea of disrobing in front of a video camera excited her. Or maybe it was the thought of other mother's kids watching her. He never considered the possibility that his mother might be excited by disrobing in front of her own son. Mary was finishing her fourth glass of wine before she made her decision. "If your father were here, I would say no." Mary said slowly with the resolve of making a moral statement. "As the head of the family, the decision would be his and not mine. You have placed me in a difficult situation. I want you to be accepted. I want you to succeed at Hartford-Abernathy Academy. You need to grow up into manhood among other young men. As a single mother, I can not give you the same type of rearing." She pauses sipping more wine, and begain on a new line of rationale as if she has lost her train of thought. "There's nothing wrong with disrobing. Many families swim in the nude or use sauna's without bathing suits. In Europe, there are nude beaches. It's all in the perception. Will you think any less of me, as a mother, if I do what you ask?" Sitting in the library, talking with his mother, Tommy felt himself getting aroused. This is the sexiest thing he had ever done. Still a child, planning to dominate a grown woman, his own mother. Watching and listening to her mental struggle to accept his demands intensified his pleasure. It felt like a surge of pure energy, pure power sweeping through his body. He remembered his father talking about the thrill of power brokering, watching business adversaries struggle to make their actions justify their vanities. He knows his mother was vain, spending hours fussing with her hair, applying makeup, getting pedicures, and facial massages. He had known these things for years, but he had never tried to use her vanity against her like a weapon. Revelling in the sensation, it sucked him in, without letting go, like a whore's mouth. There was a long, silent pause before Tommy answered his mother's question. "I'll always love you as my mother," he answered with a vague reassurance. Tommy's heart was beating uncontrollably. He could not believe his plan was working. It was incredible. Mary Drummond took her son, Tommy, by the hand and together they climbed the stairs to her bedroom. While she primped in front of the bathroom mirror, he set up the camcorder. Mary Drummond looked stunning. She had applied blue eye shadow and eyelash liner to accent her green eyes. Her red hair was brushed out, shining with a burnishing glow that was complemented by her glossy coral lipstick. She was fully dressed in high-heeled shoes, with a full length coat covering a black evening dress topped off with a white mink stole, and hat. She looked like a socialite ready to depart for a formal concert on a winter's night. With a nod toward Tommy, she asked, "Are you ready?" "Ready," says Tommy, lifting the camcorder to his eye. Mary begain undressing as if she were alone. Removing her hat and coat, she shook out her hair. She dropped the hat and coat onto the chair. Turning sideways, her profile facing the camera, she rested her high-heeled shoe on the seat of the chair, and slowly unbuckled the tiny black straps crossing her ankle, letting her dress ride up over her thigh. Bending over facing the camera, she gave a fleeting glimpse of her breasts beneath the top of her dress as she removed her shoes. Standing in her stocking feet, Mary turned until she was looking straight ahead. Flirting with the camera, she touched her gold hooped earrings as if she were viewing herself in a mirror. She tossed her head, smiling into the camera, and ran the tip of her tongue over her upper lip as if she were tasting the flavor of her coral red lipstick. Tommy zoomed the camera in on his mother's face just as she pouted her lips and said, "Do you want to see more?" After a drammatic pause, Mary started unbuttoning the front of her dress all the way down to her waist. She stopped and looked up again, directly at the camera, and saids "Are you sure you want to see more?" Her face broke into a dazzling smile. With her right hand she loosened the belt around her waist. In one smooth motion, she pulled the belt off. Letting the belt dangle between her legs like a golf club she swung it back and forth. She looked up, and raised her eyebrows in a mock expression of surprise saying, "It's a long one." Dropping the belt on the floor, Mary reached underneath her dress, bending over, turning her bottom to the camera pulling her pantyhose down to her knees. Swiveling around to face the camera, she raised her right foot directly into the lens giving a glimpse underneath her dress. Standing on one foot, she worked the pantyhose off her right leg. Switching feet, the camera got a brief view of her panties, as she raised her left leg to remove the pantyhose. Mary bent over to pick the pantyhose up off the floor and lay it over the back of the chair. Standing up straight, Mary began working her dress down over her left shoulder. With one side of her bra exposed, Mary teased the camera saying "Oops! I forgot to unbutton my sleaves." Shrugging her dress back onto her shoulder, she unbuttoned both of the sleaves on her dress. "OK, now we'll try that again," Mary saids slipping her arm out of the dress and pulling it down over her shoulder. She repeated the process with the other arm until her dress was hanging from her waist with her bra fully exposed. Hooking her thumbs under the the dress at her waist, Mary started wiggling back and forth, seductively, to squirm out of her dress. She suddenly stopped squirming. Looking into the camera, she said "Oops! You wouldn't want me to take off my panties too." Reaching down, she pulled up the edge of her white lace panties with her fingertips before continuing to pull her dress down over her hips. She let the dress fall to the the floor. Bending to pick it up, she bared her rear end to the camera's unblinking eye and the frame blossums with a view of her white laced panties. Walking toward the closet, she opened the door and disappeared briefly before returning with a long single piece silk nightgown. She held it up by the shoulder straps, gathered it together preparing to slip it over her head. Without warning, she stopped and laid the silk nightgown down on the chair. Shaking her redhair back and forth, she held her index finger over her mouth and pursed her lips as if cautioning someone to be quiet and said, "Oh, you naughty boys. You want more don't you?" She lowered her finger and hugged herself with both arms, craddling her breasts together, for maximum cleavage. "Humm! What do you think I should do?" Mary said rotating her shoulders back and forth smiling like a woman half her age. Tommy was lost. He was transfixed by this striptease. It had gone far beyond anything he might have imagined. Afraid of thinking of his mother in sexual terms, he stopped thinking. Emotionally, he was frozen. The camcorder was his saviour. It filmed the action, continuing to record even after Tommy had closed his eyes. The lens sucked in the performance. Tommy activated the zoom instinctively. The recording was automatic without Tommy's conscious effort. On a deeper level, he comforted himself with the knowledge that his mother was playing to the camera, playing to the unknown young men who she thought would be admiring her body, and not performing for for her son. Slowly, with a deliberation filled with suspense, Mary used her left hand to push her right bra strap off her shoulder. She turned and loosened her left bra strap. Turning her back to the camera, she unhooked the back of her bra. Facing back toward the camera, bra straps dangling, she cupped her breasts in the palms of her hands to keep the brassiere in place. Tommy does not remember his mother exposing her breasts, or letting the bra drop to the floor. She wiggled the silken nightgown down over her head before he regained his sense of time and place. Tommy was numb. The next morning, after his mother departed on another of her errands, Tommy used the Sony camcorder to tape himself masturbating in her bedroom. With the camcorder on full zoom, he jerked off, until he climaxed. Using his comic book collection as a bribe, Tommy enticed three of his neighborhood friends over to participate in a video project. They sat on his mother's bed mugging for the camcorder with expressions of surprise, and enthusiasm. Tommy prompted them on what to say. In return for refusing to talk about the video taping, they all received some first edition comics in mint condition. The following week, after Tommy had returned to the military academy, Mary Drummond was puzzled by the sound of young men's voices coming from the Home Theater Room. Her first fear was that Tommy had returned. For Mary Drummond, the reality was much worse. Entering the Home Theater Room, she was stunned by the picture on the television screen. She stood frozen, watching something that she knew never happened. Mary watched herself doing a striptease while her son, Tommy, was sitting in a corner chair masturbating, and three of his school friends were lounging on her bed making lewd comments. She turned off the sound, but let the tape run watching a silent scene unfold that she knew in her heart was impossible. The film repeated itself in a loop before Mary realized it had been cleverly edited. Tommy Drummond walked into the room. "You bastard!" Mary Elizabeth Drummond pressed the eject button on the VCR. She threw the cassette to the floor and smashed it with her high heeled shoe. The black case broke open with a loud cracking sound of brittle plastic. "It's just a copy, Mom" "There was no initiation, was there?" "No, Mom." "You bastard!" "I know. I've been bad." "Has your father, Charles, seen this?" "No." "Thank God!" "But he might ..." "You bastard! The divorce papers haven't been signed yet." "I know." "Your father could end up with almost everything." "I know." "What do you want?" Tommy wanted to say he would destroy the videotape if his mother let him quit the Academy and live at home, but his voice choked up with emotion. "I want you...." Tommy managed to say. Tommy hung his head down, his nerve was lost, thinking he had failed. His mother reached out. Tommy thought she was going to slap him, but she patted him on the back of his head, and moved away. When he raised his head, Tommy saw his mother was starting to undress. ______________________________________________________________________
