~Sugar Daddy~

My mother - 29

I cleaned up the house as I was in a meeting, exhausting but at least I killed two birds with one stone, just as I ended the meeting my doorbell rings, I was expecting anyone so I was a bit confused, I walk over to the door and open it and to my surprise, it was my mother with my two younger brothers, who are just a few years younger than me, "sweetie!" my mom exclaims happily  "uh. Hi, what are you guys doing here?" I question "I heard you were back and I had to come to see you" she lets herself in and looks around, "I've been back for a year actually" I state and let the boys in, "why didn't you tell me?" she turns to me raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms, but I have a pretty good reason, she's super judgmental and I never even told her I'm bisexual, everything I do she has to find something wrong and ruin it, my brother is ok though, bitches but ok.

I'm not surprised my dad isn't here it's about the time my parents got a divorce, their marriage is so toxic, sometimes I feel like it was passed onto me and now I can't find one great relationship that's not filled with drama, but I did get lucky with Eric, we do have drama, ALOT, but anyone else would be completely heartbroken and angry, probably break my car or bust the windows out my house. I still can't believe he came back and even took the blame for me, I'm mad that he did but I love him for doing it.

"Cameron! How have you been?" I heard a familiar deep and annoying voice behind me just when I was about to close the door, it's my dad... Seriously. He wraps his arm around my shoulder, I pull it off and let him in then close the door, "so. what can I do to help my lovely family?" I say as my youngest brother flops onto the couch, "we were planning on having dinner with you" he says with a small smile "oh..." I look away scratching the back of my neck, "I'm really busy this week, so maybe we can have dinner another day, and tell me next time"  I say as my mother looks around ignoring me, she eventually finds a picture frame of Eric and me, "who's this? I've never met him before" she questions, "a friend" I lied walking over to the kitchen after catching my brother looking around in my fridge and pull him out of it then close it then walk over to my mom, "he looks gay" her tone changes to a blend one, "he is" I respond and she looks up at me, "why is this in your house?" everyone looks at me now, "I look good in this photo" I grab it from her and place it back into its spot and admire Eric's adorable face in the picture, "and this is my house, I place what I want in it" I look back at her, "so do you have a girlfriend?" she asked changing the subject, "it's complicated at the moment" I force a smile, "Cameron." My father said sternly, "Look I gotta get back to work, either leave or stay and don't fucking touch anything" I go into my office and sigh closing the door, I lean my back on it, this month can't get worse.

I was finally finished with work for the day and I prayed that my family had left, I can't handle them being there, I sat in my office for a little longer thinking about Eric and hoping he was ok, I finally get up and walk over to my door, I slowly open the door and mentally cuss when I saw my brothers on the couch watching a game on the TV and my parents chatting at the table with some coffee, I walk out of the office and my mom saw me, "Cammy! You're finally done!" she exclaims happily, "yup." "now we can cook" she got up with a smirk and pulls me into the kitchen. The entire time all I could think about was Eric, my mother was giving me a headache and just makes me annoyed, but how else am I supposed to help him all I do is work until I have the money but that's going to take months unless... I look over at my mother.

She knows I'm gay but I never told her, I guess mothers always do know, she just avoids it.  I think it's about time I tell her about it, I know her biggest secret too so if she doesn't accept me I can just use it against her.

Once my dad left to check on the boys, I go over to my mother "mom." I call "yes sweetie?" "I know you know I'm gay, bi actually" I state and she froze and gulps, "and yes I do have a boyfriend" "is it that boy in the photo?" she asks continues to mix the salad, "yes.. but I slipped up and it made him go to prison" "so you weren't clean?" she finally looks at me and sighs, "I was clean but for some reason, he took the blame for me and I need to bail him out," I say, "and now you need me?" she began to whisper.

"oh don't act like you haven't asked for money from me before"

"but not bail, how much is it anyway?"

"800,000"

"Jesus, Cammy, how many people did you kill?"

"2, but it was first-degree that's why it was so high, I have 200k, you don't have to pay the rest but if you actually to be a part of my for once then at least help me a little bit"

"and if I don't?"

"I'll tell dad who Alex's real father is," she sighs and shrugs, "fine, I'll give you 300k," she says, "if you really think or believe he's the one then I'll accept it... and you," she says softly looking into my eyes, "I know he's the one... thank you, really, it means a lot" I smile softly and she smiles back, "boys, dinner is ready" my mother yells as the timer rings.

After dinner, just before they left I get a notification from my bank that 300k was transferred into my account and that it was suspicious, I sign off on it then say goodbye to my family and thanked my mother again, I'm planning on seeing Eric next week, I hope he's doing ok, I can't imagine how bad his anxiety is right now, I just want to hold him again and I promise I will soon.
