The Art Project (Wildfire)

[MellowYellow]

Well...today had been interesting to say the least.

Jason had always been talented when it came to art, and it had been one of his favourite hobbies. Too bad his dad never realised he wanted it to stay solely as a hobby and had pressured him to attending an art class at the local community college. The 17 year old had hoped to avoid going, but it was hard to say no to his dad. He was a remarkably scary man at times.

And that was probably why his mother had divorced him, and why Jason spent most of his life in her custody. His mother was a hell of a woman, smart and kind, supportive...and while he didn't want to admit it, she was attractive to boot. Incredibly so, to the point where Jason had far too many filthy thoughts about her.

She just HAD to be the woman they chose to model naked for the anatomy class. It had been incredibly awkward for him, and her too most likely. But neither of them said anything aloud, because god knows how awkward things would get if either brought it up to the class as a whole.

So Jason finally made it home that evening after a long walk to clear his head, his pad tucked neatly under his arm. Therein was his mothers nude portrait, the most detailed and accurate thing he had ever drawn in his life, yet still incomplete. He walked through the hard wood floors of the entanceway "Hey mom, are you home?" he called out.

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley had been divorced for the last nine years, in that time she had managed to get custody of her son and done everything she could to make certain her ex-husband only had visitations, no overnights without supervision and she had kept the truth of the problems between her and her ex-husband from coming out to Jason. Jason was and would always be her world, she worked as a waitress at one of the better restaurants but it didn't really open the doors to do anything more than pay the bills in the house and put a little at a time away in case her son didn't get a full ride to college.

When the art instructor at the community college, an old friend from her high school days told her how much it paid to pose for the art class she snapped it up. All of that would be able to go toward the college fund.

She arrived at the campus about fifteen minutes before the class began and was in the class, naked by the time the students began to arrive. Then she saw Jason enter and for a moment she was considering putting her clothing on and leaving. However, she managed to make it through the sitting and as the students picked up to leave, she slipped into her skirt and drew on her blouse.

When she got home, she made herself a cup of Irish coffee and thought back to the looks she had received from many of the guys in the class. Her son was a talented artist, she had always known that, the fact that her son had seen her nude should have bothered her a great deal more than it had, right? Granted, she was embarrassed and hoped that their relationship wouldn't be strained. She prided herself on being there for her son no matter what.

When she heard the door, heard him call out she smiled. She had just settled in on the sofa deciding that tonight she would call out for dinner rather than cook. She considered it a treat, something they rarely did. "In the living room, honey." She called back and turned on the couch to look toward the doorway with a greeting smile, a pit of nerves in her stomach. She hoped beyond all that things would be okay.

"How was your day?" She asked, sipping her coffee which she had traded out after her first Irish coffee. She never drank much, something that was opposite of her ex-husband. Danny had always been an ass, she just hadn't seen that side until after they got married and she had Jason. She didn't blame her son for any of it.

 

[MellowYellow]

"Oh, you know. The usual." Jason lied, taking one of the vacant seats across from his mother. He managed a smile despite his worries, but deep down this was eating him. He could hardly be mad at his mother, it wasn't like she was prostituting herself or anything, and if that class made the two of them some more money then it was for a good cause.

Didn't changed the fact that he had gotten a very good look at the canal he was birthed from.

He shouldn't have been so aroused by it, he shouldn't have been thinking of her like this...but by god, she was the incarnation of beauty. He made a point of kicking the crap out of anyone at school he heard leering at his mother but he was every bit as attracted to her as they were.

"Listen..." he said finally managing to meet his mothers gaze "I was...only at that art class because dad pressured me into doing it. I um, I didn't know you'd be there." Jason added, trying to make some sort of excuse. He probably would have gone anyway if he knew his mother had been there, and pretend to be innocent.

He gulped slightly and opened his book up until he found Ashley's picture, every curve highlighted in particular detail But he had made a point of capturing the beauty of her face, omitting a wrinkle or two. It had yet to be shaded, and it was missing some parts of her figure, but it was still very impressive to see. "I ah...Well, what do you think?" he asked, angling the pad so Ashley could see it "Tried to do my best, even though I was nervous..."

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley looked at her son, smiling and shaking her head as she assured him, "Honey, it's alright. If I had known you were taking that specific course I wouldn't have agreed. I only knew you were taking a course your dad paid for. It's done now though, just as long as it doesn't make things strange we can just consider it done." The fact her son appeared to be just as concerned touched her and she watched as he went through the sketchbook and opened to a page.

When he tilted it so she could see, her eyes widened, the way he had drawn what he had of her made her catch her breath. "Oh baby, it's wonderful." She found herself reaching out and tracing some lines before glancing up at him, "It's beautiful, I've always been so proud of you. Your art has always been amazing but this... I didn't know you could draw like this... capture like this."

Ashley leaned back and looked at her son, her pride in his talent clear in her expression, "I can't possibly look that stunning, but thank you baby. When is it supposed to be turned in completed?" She asked him, her expression curious. She had always supported him in anything that she could and she would never change that.

As she shifted, she crossed one leg over the other and glanced back at the picture then back at her amazing son.

 

[MellowYellow]

A bit of pride swelled inside Jason's heart, for a moment he felt that she'd be disgusted. Still he did feel awkward, as despite his attempts to desexualise the picture all he had wound up doing was make his mother look even more elegant and beautiful. "Th-thanks..." he said awkwardly.

"But you are, you know. Like, really really beautiful. Just saying." he added, not able to really look Ashley in the eye as he said it. She was his mother, after all. Jason couldn't just come straight out and tell her just how attractive he found her to be.

It was tempting of course. No girls in his high school interested him after all...now that he thought about it, he had no other father figures on his life, and if Ashley had dated at all since the divorce then Jason couldn't recall any of them. Such a shame that a woman this beautiful was single.

"I ah...well it needs to be finished up by next monday." he explained awkwardly. "After dinner I was hoping we could...I mean we don't have to, but I'd really like it if you could...pose for me again so I could get the rest of your details."

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley smiled warmly as she listened to her son complimenting her on her beauty. It was the first time in years that anyone had said that to her and it caused her heart to swell that her son was the one to speak of it. She watched him curiously, waiting for his answer and when she heard him asking her to pose again she was silent for several moments.

It was wrong, how it felt to know that a young man would be looking at her naked body. More so that young man in question was her son. It had been a long time since her body had been given pleasure, viewed or anything of the sort until earlier when she had posed for Jason's class. The looks she had received then, the way her son spoke now, it all reached her in ways that she couldn't deny.

She leaned toward her son, placing a hand on his arm as she spoke softly, "Jason, I would be happy to help you with finishing your project. I know how important your art is and would never do anything to hinder it. After dinner or before, if you need me to pose I will. We're going to order out, what would you like for dinner?" She squeezed his hand lightly before she released it and leaned back, "We can do pizza or Chinese, up to you."

 

[MellowYellow]

Holy crap, she was actually up for it. Part of Jason's mind had told him to quite while he was ahead, to not pester his mother about earlier...but now he was curious. She was willing to pose for him, alone, in the buff...while she had always been supportive, this seemed to be a stretch even by her standards. Maybe he was reading too much into it, but he planned on investigating later.

"Ooooh Chinese sounds great mom. I'll get some chicken lo mein, same as always." Jason replied. He supposed he had always been a creature of habit, something that most were quickly aware of. "I'm just gonna go wash my hands and I'll be right back."

He gave Ashley a quick hug and a peck on the cheek, curious about how she'd react, and then he silently slipped away. Was his mother attracted to him? It seemed impossible, but he supposed years f being single would do that to a beautiful woman. He'd find out tonight when she posed for him, when he'd have hr all to himself.

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley smiled as her son embraced her quickly and kissed her cheek, he hadn't done that since he was much younger. For a moment, she sat stunned at the show of affection that she had long missed from her son and then made herself move as she stood and called for the Chinese, ordering enough to last them a couple meals as she often did. She took down the paper plates and took out the chop stix that she kept for them.

Granted they didn't always use them but she always took them down and put them on the table. She was just pouring glasses of milk when the doorbell rang for the delivery and she went to pay for it. Carrying the bags of food into the kitchen she dished out her own and then set the cases where Jason could get them. "Foods here!" She called to Jason and sat down to eat.

They didn't say grace or do anything else special when eating, but she did try to use the kitchen table as often as she could for meals. She wouldn't force Jason to eat at the table though, it wasn't in her though when he was younger she had. She waited for Jason to come back in before she asked, "Where would you like me to pose when we're ready? Living room or your art room?"

 

[MellowYellow]

Jason had spent his time upstairs steadying his nerves, planning exactly what he was going to do. If he did something wrong, one misstep, and his relationship with his mother would be permanently fucked. But if he did it right...it'd be fucked in a much nicer way. And it would be better for both of them in the end.

When his mother called for him, the teenager headed downward at a slow and steady pace. The strong aroma of exotic spices filled the house, scents that Jason had become accustomed to. After all he and his mother weren't above getting take-out at regular intervals. "Thanks mom." he greeted once his feet touched the hall floor, and he promptly headed out to the kitchen.

"Well..." he pondered the question as he took a seat at the kitchen table. Either way would work for his intentions, but the art room was a much more intimate space due to the modest size. "The art room will do just fine." he added, smilin sweetly before starting to dig into his meal.

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley smiled as her son came down to join her, "Your welcome sweetie." Only in private did she still use the terms of affection with her son, if they were in public she was good and remembered not to because she wouldn't want to embarrass her son. She nodded when he gave his answer and began eating her own meal, enjoying the mixes of chicken she had called for, her favorites were General Tsu's and Sesame. Of course she had some of the noodles and vegetables.

When she spoke, she did so between bites to make small talk, "I heard there is an art contest with our local paper, are you going to enter one of your pieces?" She listened to his reply and continued to eat until she was full and closed the containers once they were both finished.

"Your art is amazing, Jason. I really hope that you share your talent with others. I was talking to Susan the other day and she mentioned that they might be doing an art show for new artists." Susan ran the local art gallery and was also one of the women that served on the parent/teacher committee with her to keep communication open for parents with the teachers and give ideas for the betterment of education for the students. She had spent time occasionally visiting with Ashley, even using her kitchen sometimes for her baking fests. Susan's house was small, she didn't have anywhere near half the counter space that Ashley had.

 

[MellowYellow]

Jason pondered what his mother was suggesting, lazily poking his meal with his fork while thinking up an answer. "I might." he mused idly before taking a long bite of his meal. "I mean...I know you're always encouraging me, and I really appreciate it, but part of me thinks that Im really not good enough for contests and stuff."

It was a legitimate worry after all. Parents traditionally encouraged their kids on their hobbies, so it was often hard to tell how genuine her views were. Then again his mother could be fairly frank in her opinions, so maybe she wasn't exaggerating as much as Jason was thinking. He couldn't be sure, but he'd give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she rally did like his work. Jason felt he was rather fortunate, his mother was the one who encouraged his interests the most.

"I'll probably submit one of my older finished pieces, like um..." he was about halfway through dinner now,trying to be polite and not speak with his mouth full. "Maybe the one with the snow tree. Or the one with the mountains...I think I'll keep that picture of you for my private collection though." he added before smiling sweetly at his mother. "As attractive as you are I don't want to see other people oggling over you."

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley gave a soft laugh as she sipped her glass of milk, "You're lucky I haven't just taken one of your pieces and showed it off or submitted it for you Jason." Her tone was teasing but her expression was serious. She believed in her son and wanted to see him make it, she had seen some of the art from those in the class earlier today and very few of them had the eye for detail or the ability to make what they drew seem to breathe with a life of its own.

"The mountains one is perfect." When her son mentioned keeping the one of her being kept for his private collection and gave him the compliment, she strangely felt herself blushing as she smiled back at him. "Not to mention, the questions that would need to be answered once someone saw me in the flesh at the same time as that piece... neither of us would want to face that." She stood and picked up the cases, putting them back in the bag before carrying them into the kitchen and putting them in the fridge for later. "Though today being oggled was not so bad, been a while since that has happened." She teased over her shoulder.

"If you want, while you finish eating I'll go ahead up to get ready. That way I just have to get into the same pose and you don't have to wait for me." Ashley made the offer with a smile as she turned back to glance at her son and then walked over to pick up her glass of milk and sip from it.

 

[MellowYellow]

"Oh stop it, you'll make me blush." Jason said, chuckling nervously. She was too kind honestly, the fact that she didn't have a second husband or even a boyfriend now was mind-boggling to him. "Sure, you go on ahead. I'll clean up the rest before I follow after you." he scooped up the last of his chicken lo mein on his fork and slid it into his mouth in a swift motion.

He watched her go, biting his bottom lip when he saw the sway in her hips and the motion of his ass. It was completely fucked up to be attracted to his mother like this, but she was a gorgeous and intelligent woman...and after all she did for him, he owed it to her to try and repay her for all her kindness.

It took Jason a few minutes to finish cleaning after dinner, also taking the precaution to pop a mint into his mouth. If things worked out he didn't want used chicken on his breath. He headed upstairs, steadying himself with every step, before coming to a halt at the small drawing room beside his bedroom. He opened to door to see his mother in the same pose from this afternoon, letting out a teasing wolf whistle at the sight "Are you sure you weren't a model in the past?"

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley grinned at her son before she nodded and made her way up the stairs. She did her usual after meal ritual, brushing her teeth and grabbed some lotion from her room before heading into the art room, stripping down and putting some lotion on her legs and standing there as she tried to recall the exact placement of her legs. When her son came in, she turned and smiled at the teasing whistle and blushed at his question.

"No, I definitely wasn't." Just like earlier, she didn't have any makeup on other than the same eyeliner that allowed her emerald green eyes to be further accented. She looked around the art room as much as she could without moving too much. "Was this the exact placement of my legs for the pose? I feel like I am missing something." She was clean shaven, the only hair was on her head. She didn't have any tan lines because she typically used the upper roof when her son was at school to lay out in the sun without anyone seeing her nude.

 

[MellowYellow]

Her posing did seem accurate in most respects, and he took his sweet time inspecting her to see any faults in the way that her legs were spread. "Aha, here's the problem." Jason said finally once the realisation hit him. He took a few steps forward and slipped his hands between his mothers legs, letting his strong warm hands brace against the flesh of her inner thigh.

So soft and so smooth...and presumably untouched in years if he knew his mother as well as he thought he did. Jason let his hands lightly grope Ashley's inner thighs while slowly prying her legs a little wider, slowly angling them into the proper position "There we go." he purred once he was satisfied with the placement of her legs.

Jason moved around the small art room, an area with the walls decorated with various pieces both complete and incomplete that Jason had done over the years. He took a seat and started to sketch, getting in more and more details from what he might have missed in the earlier class. Perfect privacy with the textbook definition of a milf. "You know, I was surprised to see you earlir. But far from unhappy. After all, no other model could be as pleasing on the eyes."

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley's breath hitched as her sons strong hand touched her inner thigh and she had to bite down on her tongue enough to keep herself from making any other sound. It might not have been an extremely long touch or even meant as anything more than helping her get the right pose but she felt her pussy aching for something much more than that simple touch.

She focused on breathing through her nose, letting him position her legs and watched her son move to his seat and begin working further on his sketch. She knew she blushed at his compliment and had to take a moment before she replied, "I was honestly a little worried that things would be weird when I saw you walk in the classroom. I didn't want to embarrass you or make things uncomfortable between us."

She was silent for several minutes, reliving how it felt when she had considered who was looking at her earlier in the day and looking at her son, her nipples which had already begun to harden became firm tips with the mixture of the air, her sons words and an awareness that she knew was wrong. Jason was her world, he was her son and she suddenly felt guilt over the way his touch had made her feel.

 

[MellowYellow]

"Oh no not at all. In a way I think its strengthened the bond between us." Jason replied, letting a little smile cross his face. She was so attractive, her curves perfectly proportioned in every way. And she was aroused to boot, that was plain for him to see from where he was seated. A faint glistening between her legs, her nipples like two pink diamonds...yes she was in the mood.

"Think of it like this..." he trailed off and set his pad down on his easel, letting it rest there "Seeing you like that, like you are now, well it's...I suppose it's like removing any secrets or barriers between us, you know?" Jason remarked. As nice as the art room was, it was slightly stuffy, and Jason could feel sweat bead on his flesh.

He reached down for the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head, revealing the tanned skin of his torso. He wasn't a fitness nut, but he was in decent shape, with some toned muscle on his arms and a tight stomach "Phew. Warm here...oh hang on, gotta adjust your arms." he moved around until he was behind Ashley, letting his pecs press into her shoulder blades, his strog hands rubbing along her forearms while moving them into a more accurate position.

 

[Wildfire]

Ashley didn't know exactly what she could say to that, her son seemed to be handling things much better than she expected. Most kids would be completely sickened by seeing their parent nude but he genuinely wasn't bothered by it. It amazed her and warmed her. She watched him with his sketch pad and then watched him as he revealed his perfect physique. She had always been proud of her son, sometimes she even saw glimpses of him in certain light and saw his father in his place.

Jason was her greatest gift, she never wanted to lose him. "Good," she started with a smile, "I'm glad you feel that way. You know you've always been my greatest joy in life Jason. I would never want anything to cause a strain between us." When she felt his body behind her, she bit her lip at how his hands caused shivers to race down her spine as he positioned her arms.

Ashley felt the heat from his body warm hers and had to mentally shake herself once again. This was her son for god's sake. She should not be aroused or thinking of the things that she was thinking of. She tried to chalk it up to the fact that it had been a very long time since she had been intimate with anyone.

 

[MellowYellow]

"There we go." Jason said, releasing his grip and moving around again. He took his seat again, and then got to work drawing down the last details of the piece. For all his interest in artwork as a hobby, he had never been as invested in drawing as he was now. This would be perfect, his magnum opus, a chance for Ashley to see his passion.

And then, about 8 minutes later, he was drawing in the finishing touches. "There. We. Go." he said, setting his pencil down "You can release your pose now ma, you were wonderful." Jason added, getting to his feet and gripping his sketchpad. Perfection.

He took a seat beside Ashley and laced an arm around her lovely waist, pulling her close to his strong and naked chest while raising the sketchpad up in his free hand. "What do you think?" Jason asked. The drawing seemed very well defined all the lines bolded in, free of its former sketchiness. Indeed, he had captured Ashley's proportions perfectly, and truly emphasized her beauty.
