Charlotte was stunned, while she and Violet had smoked weed in their youth Charlotte hadn’t touched the stuff since Michael was born. Before she could say anything, Michael surprised her.
“Alright! Now that’s what this party needs” he said loudly before realizing his mother was in the room. He gasped and turned to look at her, she fixed him with a menacing glare.
“Err, I mean. I’ve never seen one of those before in my life” he made an attempt at a recovery, knowing he’d already put his foot in it. He cringed, expecting his mom to chew him out there and then with Violet to watch. Instead her furious expression melted away to be replaced with one of complete indifference.
“Oh please! I can smell that shit on you every time you come back from seeing Danny. I also know the little shit sells it too. But there’s a lot you don’t know about your old mother” Charlotte said as she crossed the room to take the joint and lighter from Violet. Making herself comfortable on the floor with a small ceramic coaster for a makeshift ashtray, Charlotte lit the joint and took a slow draw.
“Well, come and sit. I don’t want the smoke or the ash near the furniture.” She patted the floor beside where she sat cross legged, her mini skirt not able to protect her modesty alone. She sat with her back straight, pushing her breasts out.
Violet brought the other drinks over and gave the water to Charlotte and Michael, taking the dark purple glass for herself. “My next game was to be truth or dare but I doubt you guys will be up for that” she said, making a very convincing show of being disheartened.
“Nonsense, that sounds like fun” Charlotte said loudly, as she handed the joint to Michael. “Doesn’t it?”
“Y-yeah, I love of a bit of truth or dare” he said, so shocked by his mother handing him weed that he wasn’t fully aware of what he was agreeing to.
“Yay!” Violet beamed. “We should have a forfeit so that we don’t have to do a truth or a dare if we don’t want to though”.
“Yeah that’s smart” Charlotte agreed. Michael just nodded, enjoying the buzz before handing the joint to Violet.
“So, the forfeit shall be, rolling another one?” She asked holding the joint aloft.
Both Charlotte and Michael agreed enthusiastically. The three of them grouped together on the floor before Charlotte shot to her feet and ran to turn a small lamp on and the ceiling light off. Giving the room a sleep-over like atmosphere.
“So, who’s going first?” Violet asked, barely holding back her excitement.
“Well, since this was your party I think you should” said Michael.
“Very well then”, she said, fixing her eyes on Michael. “Michael, truth or dare?”
“I knew that would come back to bite me” he said before meeting her gaze stoically, “dare”.
“Oooh a confidant one, well now how about this for coming back to bite you, I dare you to bite your mom… like a vampire” she said gleefully.
Both Charlotte and Michael looked to one another, their thoughts and hearts racing. Charlotte looked to Violet who simply winked at her. She looked back to her son who was at a loss for words. Glad of the weed Charlotte made a decision and swiped a pigtail from her neck. “C’mon then, just don’t actually draw blood hon”
