I made it to the first step leading up to the deck when I felt the touch of
his hand on my arm.  I tried to shrug it off but he wouldn't let go.  "Let
go," I ordered him.

"I'm sorry, I can't do that," Kevin replied.  "Not until we talk this out."
I sighed and sat down on the step.  Kevin sat down next to me and put his
arm around me.  "I love you."  I nodded not saying anything.  "You know I
have to do this."

"I know you do," I grumbled.  "But I don't have to like it."

"Just remember this," he said as he looked into my eyes. I was struck by
how intense his eyes were.  "You will be the one I am thinking about when I
am with her."

"Will you be sharing her bed?" I asked immediately regretting that I asked
that.

"No," Kevin said flatly.  "We have separate rooms."  It took me a while to
accept the fact that I did know what I was getting myself into.  Kevin did
warn me that days would come up like this.  "Come with me?"  I looked at
him like he was nuts.  "I love you and I don't want to be without you."

"You know that is impossible Kevin," I muttered.  I could hear Squeaky
meowing in the background.  He had woken from his nap and was ready for
more attention.  "How would it look if an openly gay man came to your
house.  People would ask questions."  Kevin swore quietly under his breath.

"I don't care what they think or what questions they ask.  I want you at my
side!" He was getting angry again and the same fear that I experienced last
night was coming back to haunt me.  "So will you come with me?"  I looked
into his eyes and saw that underneath the anger was love and yearning.  I
knew I was going to regret this but I knew it was best for both of us.  I
took his hands in mine and brought them up to my lips and graced them with
a kiss.

"No," I said gently.  Kevin tried to pull away but I firmly held him in
place.  I guess all those years wrestling with horses paid off.  "I'll let
you go when you understand why I am doing this."  Kevin nodded but his eyes
were flashing with anger.  I could tell that he wasn't in the mood to
listen to me.  I leaned forward and cradled his cheeks and pressed my lips
to his.  After a few seconds of some intense kissing on my part Kevin
finally responded.  When we broke apart he had his eyes closed with a
dreamy look on his face.  When he opened them the anger was gone.  "There
much better," I smiled as I got up from the back steps and went to
Squeaky's cage and reached in and took him out.  I than sat on the porch
swing and patted the seat beside me.  Kevin sat down and Squeaky decided
that he wanted to explore Kevin's lap.  So he made his way over to Kevin
and started to climb up Kevin's arm.  The expression of Kevin's face was
priceless.  I laughed as I gently removed Squeaky from Kevin's arm.  "I
think you will like it better right here in daddy's lap," I said to the
little fur ball.  He just looked up and squeaked again and curled up in my
lap.  Sighing I turned to Kevin and saw him looking out over the ocean.
"Kevin?" I asked softly.  No answer.  "Kev?" I prodded again.  This time he
turned and looked at me.  "You are a famous person.  And you are married.
People are going to look at me and be able to tell at once that I am head
over heels in love with you.  There is no hiding it from anyone.  I'm an
open book when it comes to showing how I feel.  I don't want to put you or
the group at risk.  I won't do that."

"But this was supposed to be your vacation," he replied.  "I feel terrible
that I have to cut out on you like this."

"I'll be fine.  I'm sure that Justin and JC will make sure that I enjoy
myself," I comforted Kevin.

"That is what I'm afraid of," he mumbled.  "I have to admit that I'm not
too comfortable with leaving you hear alone with Justin."

"Kevin," I sighed.  "Look at me."  Kevin turned his head towards me.  "I
can take care of Justin.  And I don't think we have to worry about him
anyway.  He is hung up on Cory any way."

"Tell me about it," Kevin grumbled.  "And I thought I shopped like crazy.
That boy has me beat by a long shot."  The sliding glass door opened and we
looked back to see who it was.

"WOW!" I exclaimed.  "You look hot!"  Justin blushed and looked down at his
feet.  "So you ready for your date?"

"Ummm I guess so," he stammered.  He reached for Squeaky and I handed him
over to Justin.  I don't think that Squeaky was too happy about being
handed over to someone else.  But after a few seconds he was purring
loudly.  "What if he doesn't like me?"

"We already know that he does like you. So what are you worried about?" I
asked.

"Umm what if he wants to have um well you know," he stammered looking very
uncomfortable.

"Sex?" I asked grinning.  Justin cringed at the word.  "What?" I asked
grinning.

"Do you have to say that word?" he asked blushing until I thought his head
would pop.

"What is wrong with the word SEX?" I asked.  I could feel Kevin shaking
with laughter.  "Kevin?" I asked innocently.  "Is Sex a bad word?"

"No Tyler honey," he snickered.  "There is nothing wrong with the word
SEX!"  Justin let out a groan.

"Come on you two," he grumbled.

"What?" I asked innocently.

"You two are used to having sex and well I'm ummm," he stammered looking
out over into the ocean.  I could sense that Kevin was about to tease him
some more but I stopped him with a look.  Getting up I put my arms around
Justin.  He jerked away walking over to the railing.

"There is nothing wrong with being a virgin Justin," I said softly.  "What
you have is a gift.  And you shouldn't just give it away like it is
nothing."

"Tyler is right Justin," Kevin spoke up.  "I made that mistake a long time
ago.  I still regret doing it.  But most of all I regret taking someone
else's virginity when I had no right.  Don't ever feel pressured to have
sex.  No boyfriend is worth having if he doesn't respect you and your
virginity."

"But what if we both want to do it?" he asked.  I could tell that we were
confusing Justin.  It was obvious that he wanted to be accepted by Cory.
And I could tell that he was ready to do anything to get Cory's acceptance.
"I mean he is very good looking."

"Yes Cory is very good looking guy but, you have to be ready," I replied.

"How will I know?" he asked scrunching up his nose.

"Trust me Justin, you will know when it is right for you.  In the mean time
just have fun getting to know each other.  I can tell the Cory likes you
for Justin Timberlake the person.  He isn't going to take advantage of your
fame," I tried to sooth him.  "Take your time, enjoy the dating process.
Sex is great and it the greatest expression of love.  Don't cheapen by
casting it away as a play thing.  Cory will understand if you need to
wait."

"Thank you Tyler," Justin smiled as he gave me a quick hug.  We heard the
door open and out stepped Cory.  I almost laughed at his very nervous
expression.  It was obvious that he was just in as bad as shape as Justin
was.  "Wow!" exclaimed Justin.  "You look great!"  That seemed to ease
Cory's mind a little.

"Ummm yea umm so do you," he stammered.  "Umm you ready to go?"

"Yea I guess, umm where are we going?" Justin asked.

"I thought we go to dinner and a movie," Cory replied as his lips turned up
in a small grin when Justin turned over Squeaky to me.  "He is a cute
little guy."

"Thank you," I replied as I cradled Squeaky in my arms.  "Kevin gave him to
me."

"Well Justin is the one who found him," Kevin spoke up.  "He looked so
lonely that I couldn't resist getting him."

"Well it looks like he has a good home," Cory said as he gently scratched
behind Squeaky's ear.  Squeaky immediately started to purr loudly.

"Umm we should get going," Justin stammered.

"OK," Cory smiled as he stepped to Justin's side.

"You guys have fun," I smiled.  "Don't stay out to late."

"Tyler dear," Kevin teased me.  "You sound like a parent."  This sent
Justin and Cory into a fit of laughter.  "Have fun you two.  We have to go
in now."  Kevin gently but firmly guided me into the house.  "I want to say
good bye to you properly," he whispered in my ear.

"Ewww!" I grinned.  "I like the sound of that!"

"You will have to excuse those two," Justin giggled.  "They've been like
that since they got here."  Finally Kevin and I were inside and I found
myself being gently dragged to our room.  I also found my clothes being
removed.

Chapter 16

"OOHHHH KEVIN!" I moaned loudly as he eased into me for the second time
today.  My body was covered in sweat and cum.  Kevin was covered in sweat
too.  "God Kevin!" I groaned again as he pulled out and slammed into me.
He reached into between my legs and took my cock in his hands.  It was
still tender from the last two orgasms and I whimpered from the sensitive
touch.

"You like that?" he grinned at me as he continued to ride me.  "Let me make
you cum again?" he pleaded looking deep into my eyes.  The lust was so
powerful that it shook me to the core.  I reached up and ran my fingers
over his slick chest marveling at how tight and hard his pecs were.

"God you are so beautiful," I breathed as he smiled down at me.  "I could
lie in your arms forever."  I could feel him shuddering as the orgasm
overtook him.  I gathered him into my arms holding him close as his body
was overcome with the orgasm.  I was so intent on taking care of him that I
didn't even realize that I had cum too.  It was only after he broke away
from me did I realize that I had cum too.  "Wow!" I breathed as I tried to
catch my breath.  "That was great."  Kevin bent down and captured my lips
in a gentle kiss.  I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him close.
After kissing for a few moments we broke apart.

"Let's get cleaned up shall we?" Kevin asked as he kissed me lightly on the
nose.  Together we got up and made our way to the shower.

Later that evening from Kevin's point of view.

"I don't want to go," I pouted as Tyler held me in his arms.  "I want to
stay here with you all night long."

"But your wife and the rest of the group is expecting you," Tyler reminded
and smiled down at me.  "You promised me you will call every day right?"  I
nodded not trusting myself to comment further.  "Oh yea and ask Nick to
give me a call.  I want to know how Travis is doing."

"Any more instructions dear?" I asked grinning up at him.  He pouted down
at me when I started teasing him.

"I can't help it," he grumbled.  "I miss that horse!"  I giggled at his
defensive comment.

"I know you do sweetie," I whispered as I played with his chest.  I could
tell that I was getting him excited again.  Giggling softly I scooted down
so that I was face to face with his cock.  "Hmmm," I giggled.  "Looks like
he wants to play some more."  I very quickly grabbed the head with my lips
and sucked the rest of him into my mouth.  I closed my eyes with joy when I
heard the soft whimper from Tyler as I continued my assault on his already
tired Cock.

After he came in my mouth I cleaned him up and pulled to blankets up around
him.  I leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the lips.  "Goodbye my
love," I whispered.  I looked one last time at him curled up in bed
sleeping.  I had to laugh softly when I saw a yellow little fur ball making
his way to Tyler's pillow.  Closing the door to the bedroom I headed out
into the living room and saw JC sitting in the bay window looking out over
the ocean.  "I'm leaving now," I said softly.  "He is asleep for now."

"We'll take care of him for you," JC smiled at me.  "Umm he will have the
house alone to himself tonight because I'm going out to discuss some
business."  I nodded and gave him a quick hug and left.  Some thing in the
back of my head was yelling stay!!!  But I had a job to do and the sooner I
did it the sooner I could get home to Tyler.  Starting the engine I backed
out of the drive and drove up the road to the airport.

Chapter 16

Much later the from Tyler's point of view.

I woke up and opened my eyes only to find out that I couldn't see.  Panic
raged through my body as I struggled to sit only to find that I was tied to
the bed.

"I wouldn't try that again if you know what is good for you," snickered a
voice.  "Oh and don't try screaming for help because no one will hear you."

"Who are you?" I demanded.  My head was in a fog and I couldn't get my
bearings.  "Why are you doing this?"  It was only at that time did I
realize that my voice was slurred.  I was drugged, that much my foggy brain
was able to decipher.  I struggled against the bounds only to be punched in
the face.  Pain raged through my face and I could taste blood.

"Don't struggle!" he shouted.  I felt a weight on my chest and smelt the
unmistakable scent of male scent.  I felt the head of a cock trying to get
access to my mouth.  I clenched my teeth shut only to get punched again.
"You are going to fucking suck my cock cause if you don't I'm gonna
continue to beat the shit out of you!  And no biting!"  I opened my mouth
only to have his cock ram roughly into my mouth.  Immediately he started to
ram in and out of it.  Each time he rammed in his pubic hair would smash
against my nose.  I tried to breath but had a hard time.  "You like that
don't you?" he rasped.  "You like being fucked like a pig don't you?"  He
continued to fuck my face like some common street whore.  "Oh yea!" he
growled.  "You think you are so hot with your big shot boyfriend.  You
think you are so great!  Well I'm going to show you just what kind of trash
you really are!"  By now he had my hair in his hands and he was thrusting
harder and harder.  I could feel his cock swelling and I knew that he was
going to shoot soon.  I didn't want to swallow his load but was afraid of
what he would do if I didn't.  Than it happened.  The first blast hit me in
the back of the throat.  I gagged and tried to spit it out but his fists
came smashing into my face.  "Fucking swallow faggot!" he screamed as he
continued to shoot down my throat.  I continued to gag and he continued to
hit me.  At some point I blacked out.

I came to later to find that I was still on my back with my ankles up in
the air.  I was still blindfolded but I could think clearer.  "Help" I
shouted and struggled to get free.

"Hold him down!" he shouted.

"Oh God!" I thought to myself.  "He has friends."  I winced as I felt the
hot point of the needle jab in my arm.

"Can't have him coming too now can we," he sneered.

"Yea!" laughed one of his goons.  "Not when the fun is just getting
started.  Fuck him man!"  I could feel them slapping their cocks against my
face.  I could even the feel the splash of cum hitting me in the face as
they jacked off in it.  "Come on man!" leered one of them.  "Bite im!"  I
groaned in pain as the lead rapist sank his teeth into my shoulder.  I
screamed again as they continued to bite into my flesh.  "Come on! Make him
squeal like a fucking pig.  Shove that cock up his ass!"  I screamed in
pain as he rammed his cock into my ass.  I could feel my rectum tearing
with each plunge.  I lost count how many times I screamed.  I screamed
until my voice was hoarse.  "Shut up!" shouted one of his friends.  "Here
shove it in his mouth, that will shut him up!"  A fist roughly shoved a
pair of boxers in my mouth gagging me but also shutting me up.  The rape
session went on for what seemed like hours.  After one would finish raping
me the other would jump in and take over.  The only thought that came to
mind was Kevin.  I wanted and needed him so bad.  The pain was so bad that
I just wanted to end.  Retreating back to my child hood I remembered a
trick I used to play to get my way.  I stopped breathing, refusing to take
a breath until my lungs were ready to burst.  I could tell by the silence
in the room that they realized that something was wrong.  "Ohh fuck!"
shouted one of them.  "He stopped breathing!"  In their panic one of them
tore off the blindfold.  The lead rapist's face swam into view.  I saw his
face and I knew who he was.  Hurt and anger raged through my tortured body.
He saw the confusion on my face from my drug induced state.  I wondered if
it was the drugs that was playing tricks on my mind.

"Why!" I screamed in my head.  "Why?" I demanded again in silence.  One of
the rapists hit me in the head with something.  It was at that point that I
blacked out.

From Justin's point of view.

"I had a good time," I said to Cory as we walked up the drive.  I looked
into the windows and saw that it was dark.

"I had a good time too Justin," Cory said looking down at his feet.  "Umm
can I um," he stopped talking and looked up at me with a pleading look in
his face.

"Yes?" I asked smiling at him.  He looked down as if gathering up his nerve
to say something.

"Can I kiss you?" He blurted out.  I almost laughed but didn't, instead I
nodded quietly.  He leaned forward and lightly brushed his lips against
mine.  The minute his lips touched mine I was hooked.  IT was an innocent
kiss very light and gentle.  No tongue or anything.  In a second it was
over.  I was standing there with my eyes closed and he started to giggle.
"Umm I'm done."

"Do it again?" I pleaded.  He chuckled and I found his lips against mine
again.  This time I took some of the control from him as I brought my hands
up to his face and gently cradled it.  It was at that point that I heard
it.  A soft whimper coming from the house.  It started so soft and quiet
that I almost didn't hear it.  Than it grew to a primal howl.  I broke away
and looked at the condo.  "Oh my God!" I exclaimed.  "That is Tyler."  I
grabbed Cory's hand and pulled him up on the porch and jammed the key into
the lock and wrenched the door open and ran through the house.  The cries
were coming from the guest bedroom.  I opened the door and walked in.
Tyler was curled up in a fetal position screaming at the top of his lungs.
His face was all bruised and swollen.  There were bite marks and marks all
over his body.  He was naked and that was when it hit me.  He had been
raped.  I ran over to him and touched him on the shoulder.

"Get away from me!" he screamed at me as he cowered to the corner of the
bed.  I tried to touch him again only this time Cory stopped me.

"Let me!" he ordered as he sat down on the bed.  "Tyler?" he asked in a
gentle voice.  "We are not going to hurt you.  We are here to help you."
Tyler continued to whimper quietly but he was a lot calmer.

"Kevin?" he asked softly.

"Kevin is out of town," I said.  "Will you let us help you?"

"Justin?" He asked in a small voice.

"Yea buddy, it's me," I replied as I crawled in beside him.  "I'm here,
will you let us help you?"

"They raped me," He sobbed out.  "They wouldn't stop!" He was sobbing again
as he looked around.  Both of his eyes were swollen shut.  My heart gave
out and tears started to flow.  I notice that Cory was on his cell phone.
I gently put my arms around Tyler holding him and talking softly too him.

"I'm here, and no one is going to hurt you," I whispered in his ear.  "I'm
so sorry this happened."  By now he had stopped crying and was just quiet
staring blankly at the wall.  I heard a squeaking and looked down to see
Squeaky sitting on the floor looking up at me.  "Squeaky is here, do you
want to hold him?" I asked.  He nodded but not saying anything.  I picked
up Squeaky and placed him in his arms.

"I've called the police and ambulance," Cory said as he placed a light
sheet over Tyler's shivering body.  "The police says not to let him take a
shower.  They will need to collect evidence."

"NO!" Tyler screamed.  "I don't want anyone touching me!"

"Tyler baby," I said softly.  "You've been raped.  They have to check you
out and collect evidence.  If they don't catch the bastard then he will do
it again."

"I want Kevin!" he wailed out.  I reached for my phone and dialed Kevin's
cell but got his voice mail.  I left a message telling him to call as soon
as he got this message.  I could hear the police and ambulance sirens
screaming towards the condo.  Tyler heard it too and struggled to get out
my arms.  I held him tight.  "Let me go!" he demanded.

"No!" I shouted at him.  "You are going to the hospital!"

"I don't want anyone to see me like this," he sobbed out.  I looked over at
Cory for help.  He walked to the other side of Tyler and pulled him into
his arms.

"Tyler?" he asked in a soft voice.  "Look at me please?" Tyler slowly
looked into Cory's eyes and I could see the love and concern in Cory's
eyes.  "Justin and I will be with you every step of the way.  You will
never be alone and no one is going to hurt you.  Will you let us take you
to the hospital?"

"Kevin?" he pleaded again.  Tears flowed down my face.  I took Cory's
place.

"Tyler?" I asked softly.  "Kevin isn't answering his phone right now.  But
I promise you I will keep on trying."  The door opened and the paramedics
came in with a stretcher.  Cory got up and quietly told them what had
happened.  I could tell that Tyler was frightened.  One of the paramedics
who was a female came up to him.

"Tyler?" she asked softly.  "We have to check you over and access your
injuries.  Will you let us do that?"  Tyler looked over at me with fear in
his eyes.  "Justin can stay with you for the entire thing.  We will not let
you be alone."  He nodded and closed his eyes as they poked and prodded
him.  The male paramedic checked his rectum and when he gently pulled the
cheeks apart I head him gasp and turn to throw up in the waste basket.  I
looked at Tyler and saw the tears flowing down his face.  I used my thumb
to gently wipe them free.

"Kevin," he sobbed again.  Sighing I got up and dialed the number again.
Again I got the voice mail.  I looked back at Tyler and shook my head no.
He just nodded and retreated to silence as the paramedics continued to
check him out.  About fifteen minutes later we were on the way to the
hospital.  Tyler insisted on me riding with him in the ambulance.  Cory,
being a sweetheart followed in the car.

An hour later I walked into the hospital room they had for Tyler.  He had
been cleaned up, his wounds dressed and he looked a little better.  He
wasn't talking, he was just sitting in bed looking down at his fingers.  I
touched his shoulder and he moved away.  I heard the phone ring and picked
it up.  "Hello?" I asked.

"Justin?" asked Kevin's voice.  "What is wrong?"

"It is Tyler, you need to get here as soon as you can," I answered him.

"What happened? He demanded again with force.  I could hear the stress in
his voice.  I closed my eyes tight and shook my head.

"Kevin?" asked Tyler again.

"Justin!" Kevin spoke loudly.  "Give the phone to Tyler!"  I handed the
receiver to Tyler.

"Kevin?" Tyler asked in a small voice.  I could see his shoulders trembling
with agony.  "I'm so sorry Kevin," he sobbed out.

"Tyler honey," Kevin said softly.  "What is wrong?"

"Come home please?" Tyler begged.

"I'll be there as soon as possible baby, but you need to tell me what is
wrong," Kevin insisted.

"I feel so dirty," Tyler sobbed out.  "I couldn't get them to stop.  They
had me tied down and they kept doing it."  Tyler was sobbing loudly now and
you could barely understand what he was saying.  I took the phone from him
and held it to my ear.

"Ohh God Tyler," Kevin sobbed.  "What did they do to you?"

"Kevin," I said.  "You need to wrap up what you are doing and get back here
as soon as possible.  Tyler's been ganged raped."  I could hear the
strangled sob from Kevin and I heard him drop the phone.  I waited
patiently for him to pick it back up.  I could hear him gagging in the
background and than a voice came back on the line.

"Justin?" It was Nick.  "What is going on?  Kevin is hysterical and puking
his guts out."

"Can you fly out with Kevin?" I asked.

"Yea, I think I can get away.  Kevin and I were first for the shoot so I
guess we are free," Nick replied.  "Justin what happened."

"Just get here as soon as possible.  We are Key West General," I replied.
"Don't let Kevin travel alone."

"Ok Justin, I won't let him travel alone.  But I really need to know what
is going on," Nick insisted.

"Tyler has been raped," I said softly.  I could hear Nick gasp in shock.

"Is he hurt?" He asked in a strained voice.

"He was beaten up pretty bad but I'm to worried about the physical aspects
of the attack.  I'm more worried about the emotional ones.  Please Nick, he
has been begging for Kevin ever since I found him."  I looked over at Tyler
and was pleased to see him sleeping.

"Justin," Kevin spoke up.  I could tell by the sound of his voice that he
was still very upset.  "Let me talk to Tyler."

"He just fell asleep," I told Kevin.

"Just hold the phone up to his ear," Kevin requested.  I put the phone up
to his ear.  I could hear what Kevin was saying.  "Tyler baby," he sobbed
out.  "I'm on my way baby, I promise I will be there in three hours.  Hang
on baby."  I heard the phone click and I looked down at Tyler and saw the
relief and tension ease from his face.  I leaned down and kissed him on the
cheek.  He moaned Kevin's name and turned over and continued to sleep.  I
felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned and looked into Cory's eyes.  I
fell into his arms and let him hold me.  The door opened and we heard JC
cry out.

"OH my God!" he exclaimed.  "What happened?"

"Tyler's been raped JC," I whispered finally allowing the tears to fall.
Cory held me in his arms and let me cry.

"How? Why? Who?" JC stuttered out as he walked to the side of the bed and
ran his hand along the side of Tyler's face.  I shook my head not knowing
how to answer his questions for I had no answers to give him.  Tyler jerked
away in his sleep.  "Does Kevin know?"  I nodded and gently broke away and
sat down next to JC.

"He is on his way with Nick," I said.

"Why is Nick coming?" JC asked.

"Kevin is a wreck and he shouldn't be traveling alone," I explained as I
broke into a huge yawn.

"Justin, you should go home and get some rest," JC encouraged me.  I shook
my head no.  "You've been through hell Curly, go home and get some sleep.
I'll stay here with him."

"JC is right Justin," Cory's sweet voice spoke up.  "I'll drive you home."
I nodded quietly and kissed Tyler on the forehead and took Cory's hand.

"Take care of him JC," I ordered him.  He nodded quietly and sat down on
the sofa next to the bed.  "Call me if he gets upset."

It is early in the morning when a lone cab pulls up to the hospital main
entrance.  Two figures get out and rush into the building.

>From Kevin's point of view.

Standing outside Tyler's room I pause and look down.  Just beyond that door
my baby was in there hurting and in so much pain.  I almost turned and took
off but a hand on my shoulder stopped me.  "He needs you Kev," spoke Nick.
"Don't you even think of running."

"I wouldn't do that Nick!" I retorted and grabbed the handle and pushed the
door open.  JC was sitting quietly at Tyler's bedside.  Tyler was asleep
but I could still feel the pain in his eyes.  My heart broke into a million
pieces when I saw the bruises on his face.  Both eyes were swollen shut.
His left cheek was swollen really bad.  I guess I let out a sob because JC
jumped and looked up at me.  "Ohh God," I sobbed as I made my way to his
bedside.  Who did this to you?"

"They don't have any leads yet.  The cops have been taking apart the condo
all night.  Justin is spending the night at the hotel.  God Kevin, I'm so
sorry that this happened.  If only I had canceled the meeting," JC said
with tears in his eyes.

"Who ever did this to Tyler is going to pay!" I hissed through my teeth.
Again the comforting hand was laid on my shoulder.

"He doesn't need your anger right now Kevin," Nick said softly.  "He needs
you to love and support him.  There will be time for anger later."

"I know Nick," I replied.  "Thank you for reminding me of what is really
important right now."  I walked to the side of the bed and knelt down and
took his hand and held it to my lips.  "I should've never left you," I
sobbed out.  "Well that is never going to happen again."

The next morning From Tyler's point of view.

"Ohhh God I feel like shit," I groaned as I tried to open my eyes.  The
white light was forcing it's way in and tears stung my eyes as I forced
them open and it hit me.  I was in the hospital because I had been raped.
I groaned again and tried to sit up.  I made it half way up when a huge
wave of dizziness racked my body.

"Easy there sweetie," said the voice I longed to hear.  I turned in the
direction of the voice and saw him kneeling at my bedside.

"Kevin," I sobbed out falling into his arms.  His strong and comforting
arms surrounded my smaller frame.  It felt so good to be in his arms and I
let it all out.  I told him everything.  Not that he could understand me
very well because I was crying so hard that I couldn't even understand
myself.  But Kevin just held me and stroked my back and listened to me
patiently.  "I'm so sorry Kevin," I sobbed out after I was finished.  "God
I feel so dirty."

"You are not dirty and you have done nothing to be sorry for baby," he
sobbed as he tried to comfort me.  "I was so scared for you.  I tried to
get here as fast as I could but the plane wouldn't go faster and Nick kept
telling me to be patient but I didn't want to be.  I just wanted to get
here for you.  I'm so sorry that I couldn't get here faster."

"You are here now and that is all that matters Kevin," I said wiping his
tears from his eyes.

"You really scared us buddy," spoke a voice.  I looked over and saw a
shaggy haired Nick standing at the foot of my bed.

"Nick!" I exclaimed smiling.  "What are you doing here?"

"Well I had to come because you are my friend and I was worried about you,"
he smiled his trade mark smile.  "How are you feeling?"

"Like shit!" I groaned.  "Where is Justin?"

"I assume he is home.  I sent JC home when I got here," Kevin spoke up.

"I want to get out of here," I grumbled.

"You will go home when the doctor says it is ok for you to do," Kevin spoke
up softly.  "You've been through a lot."  I looked up at him and saw the
pain in his eyes.  "God they really did a number on you didn't they?"  I
shied away from his gaze.  I felt his lips grace my cheek where it was
swollen.  I moaned softly from the touch.  "I hate to see you in pain," he
whispered as his lips moved to my swollen lip.  "I just want to take you in
my arms and protect you for the rest of your life."  By now I could feel
his tears falling on my face.  "Fucking Bastards!" he screamed as he stood
up and walked away.  "I could kill them!"

"Kevin calm down," Nick ordered softly.

"Like hell I will!" Kevin shouted back.  "I want those bastards to pay!"

"Good and I agree with you!" Nick shouted back.  "But you are upsetting
Tyler and he doesn't need it!"  That seemed to calm him down a little.  The
door opened and Justin's head peaked in.  "Hey Justin come on in!"  Justin
stepped in with a back pack on.

"Morning Tyler," He said as he looked me over.  "How are you feeling?" I
was about to answer when I heard a squeak from his back pack.  I giggled as
I reached into the pack pack and pulled out Squeaky.  I held him to me and
cuddled with him for a few seconds.  "That little guy was so upset that he
kept crying all night so I brought him along with me."  I watched as Kevin
walked up to Justin and pulled him in a tight hug.  I could tell that he
was crying.

"Thank you," he sobbed.  "Thank you for being there for Tyler and taking
care of him."  Justin nodded obviously overcome with emotions to trust
himself with his voice.  I let them have their time alone as I introduced
Squeaky to Nick.  Nick took him out of my arms and held him up and cooed at
him.  I could tell that Squeaky really wanted to be back in my arms.  And
Nick figured it out too and gave him back.

"He is a cutie," he smiled.  Squeaky curled up in my lap and drifted off to
sleep.  "Oh and Travis says hi."  I looked up at the sound of Travis's
name.

"How did you and him get along?" I asked.

"Well he found out real fast that I bite back!" Nick said with a
mischievous grin on his face.

"He didn't!" I exclaimed.  Nick pulled his shirt over his head to reveal a
nasty bruise from Travis had nipped him.

"Well he won't be biting me any longer," he said looking down at Squeaky
napping in my lap.  "He and I have come to an agreement.  I won't bite him
as long as he doesn't bite me."  It was at that point that my stomach
decided to let the world know that it was hungry.  Nick busted up laughing
and I glared at him.

"What is so funny guys?" Kevin asked as he took my hand.

"Tyler's stomach just announced that it is time for breakfast," Nick
giggled.  Kevin and Justin laughed at me and at my growling stomach.  I
picked up a pillow and tossed it at them.  Both of them ducked and the
pillow landed square in the face of an Officer just coming through the
door.  He looked at me with a scolding look.

"Umm sorry Officer," I mumbled.

"I will need to ask you some questions," the officer stated.  "If Tyler and
I could have some privacy?"  Kevin nodded and reached out and grabbed
Nick's elbow and pulled him out into the hall.

"What can you tell me about the attackers?" the officer asked me.

"Umm I think there were three of them.  One of them was the leader and
called all the shots," I started.  The officer calmly wrote down the notes.
"I couldn't see because they had me blindfolded and I'm pretty sure that
they drugged me too.  Because my mind was in a fog.  I couldn't really
focus at all."

"Did the blind fold ever come off at any time?" the officer asked.

"No I don't think so," I answered honestly.  If it did come off I didn't
remember it.  "Like I said they had me tied up and drugged pretty good."

"OK well I got just about all I can get now.  I do have to let you know
that we gone over the condo that you are staying in.  There is no sign of
forced entry at all.  Is it possible that you let them in and didn't
remember?" the Officer asked looking confused.

"No," I insisted. "I do remember very clearly falling to sleep and waking
up.  That much I am certain of."

"Well we are going to have get blood hair and seaman samples from all of
the occupants," the officer stated.

"Than if that is the case than you need to know that Kevin Richardson and I
are involved in a relationship."  The officer nodded and jotted down the
information I gave him.

"By being involved does that mean that you are both sexually active?" he
asked.  I nodded blushing and looked down.  I noticed that Squeaky was
awake and was snooping around the bed.  I also noticed by the way he looked
with his tail twitching and his ears laid back that he was getting naughty
and was thinking about pouncing on the officer so I caught him before he
could react.  "Well Tyler, I have gotten just about all the information I
can get.  I would recommend getting come help.  A rape can be a very
traumatic thing to go through.  I can give you some names."  I nodded my
thanks and took the card he offered me.  "I hope that Kevin takes good care
of you," he said softly.  I grew uncomfortable as I realized that the
officer was gay and was starting to get a little touchy feely.

"Umm will there be anything else Officer?" I asked nervously.

"No I think that I am done here," the officer said as he got up and left.
I looked down at Squeaky who by now was looking all innocently up at me.

"Don't you act all innocent with me young man.  You do not pounce on
policemen," I giggled.  He just blinked his eyes at me and started to chew
on my finger.  The door popped open and Kevin stuck his head in.  "Come on
in and you can help me scold our son," I giggled as Squeaky continued to
chew on my finger.  By the way his eyes looked it was obvious that he was
planning on chewing and playing for a little while.  Thankfully Kevin took
over and kept Squeaky occupied for a while.  Justin and Nick came back in
with bags of McDonalds.  "Food!" I exclaimed holding my hands out.  I was
rewarded with a bacon and egg bisquit and hash browns and oj.  Needless to
say they were gone in about a minute.  Kevin just shook his head when I
swiped on of his hashbrowns.

"You doing all right?" He asked looking concern.

"I'll be fine Kevin," I whispered.  The memory of the rape was coming back.
I could almost see the face of the leader but it alluded me.  "Dammit!" I
grumbled.

"What is it sweetie?" he asked as he took a drink of his coffee.  Squeaky
was busy playing with the empty bag and he was making quite a lot of
racket.

"I can almost see the face," I replied.

"But I thought you had a blindfold on," Kevin said as he scooted closer to
me and put his arm around me.  I snuggled closer to him thankful for him.

"My mind was in drug induced fog Kevin, it is possible that the blindfold
did come off.  I'm starting to see flashes of faces.  Nothing concrete
though," I replied sighing heavily.  Nick busted up laughing when Squeaky
fell off the bed while he was inside a McDonalds bag.  Nick picked him up
and inspected him to see if he was injured.  Squeaky at once begin to play
with Nick's hand.  Once I was sure that he was ok I turned my attention
back to Kevin.  "I do know this, the person who was leading the attack was
some very close to me."  I heard Kevin take a sudden breath in.  "I just
wish I could see the face again."  I was silent for a while as I thought
about the night before.

"When can you come home?" Kevin asked.

"I'm not going back to the condo," I said flatly.

"I understand," Kevin replied.  "Where do you want to go?"  I shrugged my
shoulders.  "If you want to go home I will understand."

"Will you come with me?" I asked looking up at him.

"Of course I'll come with you baby," he smiled at me as he kissed my nose.
The door open and JC walked in and it was obvious from the look on his face
that he wasn't happy.  He glared at me for a few seconds before sitting
down.  I could feel Kevin tense up.  "You better have a good reason for
glaring at my lover like that!"

"Well because of your lover we are all suspects in his rape case.  I just
got summoned to submit to blood and hair and seamen testing.  Justin got
one too," he hurled at Kevin as he handed the paper to Justin.  "Oh yea and
so did you!  Thanks a lot Tyler, I really need this right now!"

"Now just a fucking minute!" Kevin hurled back.  "It is not his fault!"  JC
slumped down in a chair glaring at Kevin for a few minutes.  "You know I'm
right!"

"I know Kevin, and I'm sorry Tyler," he said sighing heavily.  "I just
don't like the idea of turning over bodily fluids like that."

"I'm sorry you all got dragged into this," I apologiesed to them.

"Hey," Kevin soothed me.  "You don't have to be sorry for this.  This is
none of your fault!"  He was quiet for a while and than he looked into my
eyes.  "We won't be able to go home just yet.  The police will want to keep
us in town for a while."

"I don't want to go back to the condo," I said softly.  "Too many bad
memories."

"Than we will spoil you at some fancy hotel," Kevin sugested.  "We'll rent
a whole pen house suite and camp out in luxory for a week or so."

"What about squeaky?" I asked when I saw Nick wincing in pain as Squeaky
was biting his hand.  I gently took Squeaky from him.  Squeaky decided that
my hand was much tastier than Nick's.

"We'll sneak him in," Kevin said grinning as he scratched behind Squeaky's
ear.  Soon Squeaky was purring loudly.  The door opened and in walked the
doctor.  Kevin very quickly slipped Squeaky back into the back pack and
handed it off to Justin.  Justin headed out to make the hotel arrangements.

"Good Morning Tyler," the Doctor said as he looked over at my chart.  "I
will need some privacy while I take a look at Tyler's injuries."

"I want Kevin to stay," I demanded.  I wasn't comfortable with me having my
clothes off in front of strangers.  The doctor nodded and started looking
me over.  When I took off my shirt for him I could hear Kevin sobbing as he
looked at the bite barks and bruises on my back and chest.

"I still want you to be tested for any and all known Sexually transmitted
diseases.  And I would recommend not having sexual relations until your
three HIV Tests come back negative," he explained.  I didn't like that idea
much and I guess it showed because Kevin was right beside me holding me.

"There are more ways to make love sweetie," he cooed in my ear.  Just
hearing his voice and feeling beside me seemed to make it better.  "When
can he go home?" Kevin asked.

"I'm ordering his release this morning.  After he signs his release forms
he may leave," the Doctor said as he finished his inspection.  I was glad
when it was over.  I quickly slipped my shirt back on to hide the bite
marks.  I could tell that they upset Kevin something terrible.

"I had Justin bring you some clothes," Kevin commented as he handed me a
back pack.  I peaked in and spotted Kevin's sweats in them.  I took a
breath and discovered that they were sprayed with Kevin's cologne.  "I
thought you would like that."  I grinned at him and quickly slipped them
on.  I was glad to be rid of the hospital gown.  I noticed that Kevin was
talking on the phone with Justin.

"You ready to go?" he asked as he hung up the phone.  I nodded and we
headed out of the room.  After signing all the release forms we were on our
way to the hotel.  Kevin was really quiet on the way home and I just let
him think.  Sometimes it helps to leave him alone so he can think.  "I'm so
sorry this happened to you."  I looked over at him and saw his face wet
with tears.  "I'm never leaving you alone again.  I don't care what people
say about it.  And I'm asking Kristin for a seperation."  Ok so there are
things in this world that can be said that can bring the world to a
screeching halt.  And that was one of them.  The rest of the ride was in
silence.  I didn't trust myself to talk right now.  Kevin had just
announced that he was going to separate from Kristin.  That was a hug step
and I didn't quite know how to take it. "Baby?" he asked softly.  "You're
really quiet," he commented as he put his arm around me and pulled me
close.

"Were you really serious about leaving Kristin?" I asked softly.

"Yes I was," Kevin replied.  "I am living a lie and I won't do that any
more.  And your happiness and safety are too important to me.  I'm so sorry
that you getting raped made me realize just how much I loved you.  When I
heard that you were raped I wanted to die."  His eyes were brimming with
tears as he looked down at me.

"You're not going to come out are you?" I asked scared of his answer.

"I don't know Tyler," he replied.  "I'm just tired of pretending to be
something I'm not."

"But what about your career?" I asked.

"Fuck my career!" he hurled at me.  "If I can't be happy with who I am
because of my career than maybe it is time to change it!"
