Raymond Shaw stepped into the shower and let the hot water cascade down his body. He went over in his mind the conversation he had just had with captain Marco.
“Listen Raymond, you said yourself you have been having the dreams now I want you to listen to me. I have figured it all out your mother is behind everything, I’ve done all the research and when she asked us earlier today to kill the president elect it confirmed everything. The fact that you are here proves that you believe me, we were brainwashed in the dessert and your mother is behind it all.” Ben said. “I know, I see that now, she made me kill Senator Jordan this morning before I even realized any of it. But now we have everything settled and we just won’t go through with the plan to kill him. Then afterwards I’ll speak to my mother and tell her this whole mind control thing is over and everything will be fine.” Raymond said. “Now Raymond, I don’t know your mother near as well as I do but even I know that that won’t be enough to stop her.”
Raymond hit his fist against the side of the shower. “Damn her! Why the hell did she have to do all of this? And why do I care so much?” he said to himself. “After everything she has done I still can’t help but give a damn.” Eleanor had sabotaged any chance he had had of a happy life with Jocelyn a long time ago, he had told her he would never be able to forgive her for what she had done, but he had. She was his mother and he knew he was all she had. He slid down the side of the shower. “How am I going to be able to pretend that everything is the same when it isn’t? When we are planning on killing her because we can’t think of any other way to stop her?” He took a few deep breaths and forced himself to stand back up. He could do this. Raymond continued with his shower and tried to imagine what life would be like without his mother, and for some odd reason he couldn’t imagine it.
He heard a knock on the door. “Raymond darling are you in there?” Eleanor asked. He shut the water off and quickly wrapped a towel around his waist and went to open the door to find his mother standing in a white robe. “Darling I need to explain things to you in greater detail before we get to preoccupied with getting ready for the evening. She moved past him and grabbed a towel and motioned for him to sit on the side of a very large bathtub. He sat down as she asked and as she started giving him the finishing details she began to dry him off. He only caught bits and pieces of what she said at first, as he tried to pay attention to her voice other than her hands which were busy rubbing over his body with a towel. “The assassin, the deranged lone gunman is trying to kill you.” she says. “Major Marco is an excellent marksman he replied. “Yes but you must stay very still and stand where your supposed to stand.” she says. “What happens to Ben?” “the assassin always dies baby, it’s necessary for the national healing.” She folds the towel and sets it aside. She kneels down and begins to explain why she did all of this. Raymond can see the love in her eyes and he knows that she wanted the most for him but she went about it the wrong way. “I know mother.” he says and smiles softly. Her heart melted when he did. “But when you smile, oh darling that’s what I live for, when you smile.” Eleanor moved up and gently kissed her son on the mouth and pulled away. “I’ve kissed him like his a million times, why does this time feel so different?” she thought to herself. Her face was inches away from his and she realized she had no desire to pull away from him. Then it hit her all at once “Oh my God, I love him and it’s not just a mother’s love that I feel.” she thought. She leaned in again and pressed her lips to Raymond’s once more. He didn’t pull away nor did he respond, he was too shocked to do anymore than just allow her to kiss him, slowly and insecurely. He had just realized why he couldn’t see a life without his mother earlier. “Despite everything, I always came back to her, always forgave her, and it’s because I love her.” he thought. Eleanor pulled away when Raymond didn’t respond she stood up and immediately headed out the bathroom door cursing herself. “Why the hell did you do that? He is your son for Christ’s sake! Your not a girlfriend!” she walked out of the bathroom and Raymond knew he didn’t want her to leave so he jumped up and caught up to her in the living room. “Mother.” he said. She turned around with tears in her eyes. “I’m sorry Raymond I shouldn’t have done that, I need to get dressed because there are other things I need to take care of before tonight, so I’m going to go back to my suite.” she turned to leave but Raymond put his hand around her arm and gently turned her back around to face him again. “it’s okay.” he said and smiled. He leaned down and gently covered her mouth with his. She responded and moved her lips in sink with his. He pulled her closer and she got bolder and gently grazed her tongue against his lower lip. He parted his mouth just enough to allow her to slip her tongue inside and draw his into her mouth. Raymond explored her mouth and was amazed at how soft it was, but he was even more amazed by the fact that it was sweeter than anything else he had ever tasted in his life. Raymond sat down on the couch and pulled Eleanor down so that she was straddling his lap. She recaptured his mouth immediately slipping her tongue back inside. They finally had to part for air and Eleanor looked down at her son. “Raymond, I love you.” she whispered. “I love you too.” he replied. Tears spilled down her cheeks at his confession and Raymond gently kissed them away. He kissed down her throat and back up to her mouth. She gently untangled their mouths after awhile and started kissing his chest. In the process she didn’t realize the tie on her robe had come loose. When she sat back up on his lap she noticed Raymond’s expression and looked down to see the front of the robe opened to where you could see in between her breasts and almost to her navel. Raymond leaned forward and kissed her neck and kissed his way down between her breasts. His hand moved up and went inside the robe and gently cupped one causing Eleanor to moan and arch into his touch. Se moved his head back up and kissed him again. Raymond’s hand started to massage her breast and he felt her nipple harden in his hand. She moaned into his mouth, and the groaned in disappointment when his mouth left hers once again only to have him part her robe further and draw her breast into his mouth. She gasped and grabbed the back of his head. Raymond didn’t know what had come over him. All he knew was hearing Eleanor moan for the first time a few minutes ago was amazing, and he wanted to hear her moan again. Raymond’s phone rang and at first he ignored it moving back up to his mother’s mouth, but when it kept ringing he finally lifted her off of his lap and sat her beside him and walked across the room to answer his phone. “Raymond Shaw” he said. “yes.. Yes” Eleanor sat on the couch in silence and began to think about the situation. She noticed Raymond was still only wearing a towel. She closed her robe back up. “this is wrong, he is your son! But do you really care Does that change the way you feel about him?” She knew it didn’t and she only felt partly guilty for it. Raymond ended the conversation and walked back over to the couch and sat down beside her. “My PA informing me that we need to be ready in three hours.” “Raymond I really do have people I need to speak with before the event tonight darling so I really should go.” she said smiling. “Mother, I have never seen a woman get ready as fast as you can. It takes you a total of about an hour to do your hair make up and get dressed. There have been a couple of times when you were actually waiting on me to get finished.” Eleanor laughed. “Yes darling, but I really should go. She stood up and so did Raymond only instead of letting her passed he pulled her close and kissed her again. Even though it only lasted a few minutes it seemed like hours. When she pulled away Raymond asked “Do you still want to leave?” Did she want to leave? No, but did she need to leave? Yes. Was she going to leave? She had no idea. Raymond pulled her closer and kissed her cheek, her nose, and her forehead. “Raymond, please, I don’t think we should go any further.” But Raymond didn’t like that response, he knew he would only see her alive for a few more hours, he wanted her memory to stay with him forever. So instead of stopping he kissed her again and picked her up. “You don’t think we should or you don’t want to?” he asked as he carried her towards his bedroom. “I… I don’t think we should.” she whispered, and just like that her decision was made she was staying. She let him carry her into his room and lay her down on the bed. He crawled on top of her and kissed her long and slow. “Raymond.” she whispered
An hour later she was back in her robe and Raymond had on a shirt and trousers. Eleanor finally made it to the door. “Listen, afterwards we can celebrate!” she said lightly. “Yes, of course” Raymond said and kissed her again. He backed her against the door and she was breathless when he pulled away. She smiled and pecked him on the lips one last time before heading out the door and back to her suite to get ready. She was happier than she had been in a very long time. Raymond shut the door and let a tear fall from his eye. Everything had been so amazing and so perfect and in that moment Raymond made a decision. After what had just happened there was no way he could live without his mother and he knew it, so he was going to get in the way of Captain Marco. He knew that if he stood there long enough he would shoot them both. He could convince him somehow to shoot them both. “I won’t live if she is going to die.” he said and went to get ready.
The arrived at the ceremony and as planned Raymond missed his mark and came and stood on the other side of the President Elect. Eleanor stood back behind them and had a brief breakdown on the inside. “Raymond missed his mark! How could he do that? I specifically told him…” then she thought about their later activities and thought that maybe that was the reason why. “Oh well, I’m sure I can come up with something else.” she thought as Raymond raised a hand out to her for her to join him. She took his hand and they both started waving at the huge crowd before them. She looked over and smiled at Raymond who smiled back. She just couldn’t be mad at him, she loved him to much and she knew she would find another way. Raymond pulled her over to a clear section and began to dance with her. She giggled and he smiled. He looked up in the direction of where Captain Marco was hiding and knew he could see him. He nodded his head signaling for him to go ahead. He pulled Eleanor closer and said. “I love you very much, and I’m so sorry, please know that and remember that.” she looked at her son strangely. He kissed her cheek and then she felt fire coarse through her chest and she was aware that her and Raymond were falling. Then everything went black. They both landed on the ground dead. What had started out long ago when Raymond before was something beautiful. She loved Raymond more than anything or anyone else in the world. Raymond loved his mother more than anyone else in the world. Unlike her though he hadn’t always known it, and neither one of them had known until that night that the love they felt for each other was more than just a mother, son bond. For those short few hours Eleanor realized it was more than just a mother’s love. And for those last few hours both Raymond and Eleanor had been happier then they had been since he was a little boy and they had spent hours playing together. They were lovers for only a few hours, but for both of them it was enough they finally felt complete both embracing what was so much more than a mother’s love
