Brothers In Arms--Chapter 5

Recap:

     We met Al and Greg on our way downstairs and Al asked with a big grin,
"Did you two have fun last night?"  Stephen just looked at me and we busted
out laughing and told them nothing happened and both Al and Greg had
disappointed face.  "Why do you look so disappointed?  It's not that we
didn't want to we were just to tired from everything that happened."
Stephen said leaning over to plant a kiss on my lips.  The other two just
looked at each other and in unison shouted, "Gross!!!" and we all busted
out in laughter again.  Life was going good until we got downstairs and in
the living room sat my father talking to Mr. Greyson and not looking very
happy.  He saw me has we came into the living room.  "There is my good son
and in tow is the little queer shit I don't even call my son now." my
father said with a sick look on his face.  "Now Bobby I have explained to
you they are my guest here and they will be treated with respect.  Chris is
a good kid.  As a matter of fact they all are good kids."  Mr. Greyson said
with an apologetic look on his face. My father got up from his chair and
walked over to us.  He extended his hand and shook Greg's hand then before
any of us could react he raised his hand and it came down across my face so
hard it left a red hand print from his massive paw like hand.  Mr. Greyson
ran over to me as the other three jumped between my father and me.  I was
angry now.  I jumped from between everybody and landed on my father taking
him by surprise as we hit the ground. My fist were balled up and I was
striking him repeatedly any where I could find an open spot.  Greg finally
got me off of him and Mr. Greyson helped him up off the ground.  My father
shook him off and he stormed out of the door shouting on his way out,
"You'll pay for that you little perverted little fag."  With that he
slammed the door.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     After my father had left the Greyson's house.  We sat down to
breakfast and discussed the up coming school year.  Al, Stephen and I would
be entering our sophomore year and Greg his senior year.  We all didn't
want to be separated again but knew that we would be just for classes.  We
planned to have lunch and study all together even though it would be hard
on Greg.  My big brother didn't want any of us alone after the hell we had
been through.  He talked on and off about the summer and what had happened
no one mentioned my hospital stay and I still did not tell anyone of the
figure I saw standing in the corner, it still gave be goose bumps and a few
times I woke up and Stephen would be right there just holding me.  Stephen
and I finished rather quick and helped Mrs. Grayson clear everything and
load the dishwasher.  Then we bolted upstairs two steps at a time. I was
right behind Stephen so I could get the perfect look at his perfect ass.  I
wanted it so bad but we decided that we would wait until the time was
right.  He had both been hurt beyond any repair by our fathers to trust
anyone that far.  We got to our room stripped off each others clothes and
went at it.  I started by licking and sucking on Stephen's nipples, damn
they were perfect.  Then I worked my way down slowly to his belly button,
which surprisingly had very little hair on it.  Last I got to his perfect
eight inch cock and wow it looked beautiful.  I sucked it and licked it and
Stephen just moaned which was funny cause he was trying his hardest not to.
Then it was his turn to return the favor he did everything that I did only
better.  When he put my seven inches in his mouth I almost died.  We fell
on the bed and got in to a sixty-nine and worked and finally blew our load
at the same time each drinking the other until we couldn't go anymore.

     We got dressed and went back downstairs with huge grins on our faces.
Al and Greg just smiled and said in unison, "Horn dogs."  We all busted up
laughing again. We laughed more in the last two days then we had our whole
lives.  We went outside and gathered the stuff from our camp out several
nights ago.  We started to head back to the house when we heard someone
shouting, "I'm go to kill all of you worthless little in-grates especially
that faggot son of mine."  It was my father and he was drunk again to no
ones surprise.  He had a shotgun in his hand and held it to pull the
trigger he was aiming right at me.  All I heard was the gun go off but I
didn't feel anything.  When I opened my eyes I was standing right where I
had been but I was not hit by the blast.  When I got my senses back I heard
Stephen yelling, "Run Chris get out of here now.  Greg has been hit we need
an ambulance."  I froze again my brother, my big brother had been shot
saving my life.  My father was no where in sight.  Al was running back
toward us with Mr. Greyson right on his heels.

     "The ambulance is on it's way.  Let me take a look.  It doesn't look
to bad you were probably to far away from the blast to do to much damage."
Mr. Greyson try to say in a calm voice but it was shaky and I could see
tears starting to run down his face.  "The police are on there way too.
They are out looking for your father now.  Hopefully they catch the son of
a bitch.  Sorry boys I know that is your father but damn it."  Mr. Greyson
said with tears streaming down all of our eyes now.

     "That man is not my father.  As far as I am concerned my father died a
year ago.  If they don't catch him the next time I see him will be the last
time anyone does."  I screamed as Stephen grabbed me into a tight bear hug.

     "Don't you dare say that.  I love you to much to loss you.  Hold on
Greg I see the perimedics now."  Stephen said all of this in a very hushed
voice while he was holding me in his arms and rocking back and forth like
we were sitting in a rocking chair.  He got up slowly as the perimedics got
to us.  They loaded Greg on to a stretcher and put him in the back of the
ambulance.  Stephen, Al and Mr. Greyson said I could ride in the ambulance
and the driver had no problem with that.

     We got to the hospital, the same one I was in just a few days ago.
They got Greg into a room and told me I would have to wait in the waiting
area.  When I got to the waiting room Stephen ran to me and just wrapped me
in his big strong arms and did not let go.  Al came over to us and wrapped
his arms around the two of us then came Mr. and Mrs. Greyson to finish off
the group hug.  We stood there just hugging and crying.  Everyone told me
Greg would be ok but I did not think it was possible.

     The doctor came out after about an hour and asked for the family.  I
stepped forward and told the doctor I was his brother.  The doctor said,
"Well son since you are the only family here then you have an important
decision to make", I hate when grown ups still talk to you like a kid when
you know what is going on, "You need to decide who can see your brother and
who will not.  I can only let family members see him but I know that not
everyone here is family."  the doctor said in a very calm and monotone
voice.

     "Well sir, everyone here is family as far as I am concerned and they
care more about my brother than my own family so they can and will see
him."  I said in a very serious and grown up voice.

     "Very well if you say so young man I have no problem with that I just
wanted you to be aware of what our policy is.  Now on to the matter at
hand.  We removed four pellets from your brother's abdominal area.  It
looks like who ever shot him was using a high power pellet gun with very
weak ammo.  Your brother will be just fine but I want to keep him for a few
days and make sure that we got all of the pellets out."  the doctor said
with a small smile on his face seeing the reach that I had to the news.

     As soon as I saw Greg laying there in the hospital bed I broke down
and started to cry again, God I do a lot of crying now.  I ran up to him
and he had a big grin on his face.  "Hey little brother, dry your eyes.
I'm fine just sore that's all.  I can't leave you yet.  What would you do
without me to protect you."  Greg said trying to laugh but winced in pain
instead.  I kept on crying as he hugged me.  "Stephen, take care of Chris
while I'm recovering for a few days."  He said looking at Stephen with a
stern face.  Stephen just shook his head with a big smile.

     I dried my eyes and told Greg that I would not leave his side until he
got home and I knew he was alright.  He told me I was being as bad as a
mother hen.  We all broke into laughter again.  He stayed for most of the
day until my stomach started to protested that it was hunger.  We left the
hospital and went home for a quick meal and I wanted to go back to see Greg
but everybody thought that it was best if he rest and not have anyone to
disturb him.  I started to protest but Stephen grabbed me and took me up to
our room to lay down and take a nap.  I was to worried about Greg to rest.
So Stephen just held me while I cried he rubbed my back until I fell
asleep.

     I had the strangest dream at that moment.  I was walking in total
darkness and I looked up and saw Greg sitting on a bench lighted only by a
street light and I saw the figure I saw when I was in the hospital.  I
yelled out to Greg and started running but I could not get anywhere and
nothing came out when I yelled.  The figure spoke and said, "Everything
would be alright besides it is not your time or Greg's time.  I will be
watching you boys."  I woke with a start and Stephen was staring at me with
a puzzled look.

     "What's wrong babe?" Stephen said in a soothing voice.  He had a
concerned and worried look on his face.

     "How long was I asleep?"  I asked in a shaky voice.

     "About a half hour.  What's wrong?  You just started thrashing around
and the next thing I hear you say is ok and you woke up."  Stephen said in
a worried voice.

     I proceeded to tell him about my dream and crying.  I knew who the
strange figure was.  I had seen pictures of him in the attic in a box my
mom had marked family photos.  The figure was my dead uncle but that was
impossible.  How could I have seen him standing in the hospital and had a
dream about him with a very distinguishing voice I could not mistake for
anyone else?  I had to have answers.  I got up and told Stephen I needed to
go to my house and talk with my mother.  He insisted that he go with me
just in case my father was there.  We went into Al's room and he was asleep
on his bed.  He looked like he had been crying and fell asleep from it.
Stephen and I layed down in the bed next to him, one of us on either side
of him.  I decided we could go to my house later.  We layed there and soon
we fell asleep with our arms on Al and touching each other.

     Al woke startled with both of us there.  He just sat up on his bed and
Stephen and I sat next to him, still one on either side of him.  We put our
arms around his neck and I told him, "You are still my best friend and
nothing is going to change that."

     "You are my best friend to now and I agree with Chris nothing is going
to come between that.  I promise."  Stephen said in a reassuring voice and
big smile.

     "Thanks guys but you need your time alone and I have no one to hold on
to like you do each other."  Al said in a sad voice that broke my heart.

     "Well buddy as soon as school starts we are going to find you a really
hot girl and you can forget about all that."  I said with a big grin on my
face.

     We got up and headed downstairs and I told Al about the dream and my
uncle.  He agreed that I was not going to my house alone and he and Stephen
were going with me.  So we head to my house.  As soon as we got there we
knew something was going on the police had put a squad car out front just
in case my father came back.  We walked up to the front door and it flew
open and my mom grabbed me and hugged me with tears running down her face.
Then to everyones surprise she grabbed Stephen and hugged him too.  "Boys I
am so sorry about everything that has happened to you.  You are still my
son no matter if you like girls, boys or neither.  I love you Daniel so
much that I can't stand to see what your father has done to you and your
brother.  I sent Alexis to your aunts house so that you could move back in
here just as soon as they catch your father.  I have talked with a lawyer
and am filing for a divorce just as soon as I can.  You have a trust fund
that you can use if you choose not to come back right now."  My mom said as
she stood there crying and holding all three of us.

     I didn't know what to think.  This is the woman that gave birth to me
and then for the past year ignored my existants.  "Mom I love you too but
for now I can't come home not until I know you have changed for the better.
Until I see that you can truly accept me and Stephen as boyfriends and see
that I love him I can't be here."  I said with tears running down my face.

     "I know hunny.  I want to show you that I have changed and I can
accept you and Stephen for who you are but it will take time to adjust to
it and I understand your discussion and accept that.  Would you boys like
to come in for a bit and have a snack before you go, please."  My mom said
in a shaky voice drying what tears were left.  We accepted and went in.  We
went to the living room while my mom went to get the snacks.  Stepehen sat
down and I purposely sat in his lap.  Al sat next to us and when my mom
came back in she just smiled at us and said we looked sweet.  That was a
start for her and I gently slide off of Stephen's lap and sat between him
and Al.  My mom suggested that I at least give Stephen a kiss for holding
my skinny ass on his legs.  We all laugh at my mom's sense of humor and it
felt good for a change.  Maybe she did want to accept us but I wasn't ready
to come running back home.

     When we were done with our visit, which lasted a good two hours, we
decided to walk home instead of calling Al's dad.  We did call to see if we
could stop and get some ice cream first and said yes but not to fill up
because we would have dinner soon then we were going back to the hospital.
I explained what happened with my mom and you could actually hear him smile
on the phone and he told me that he was proud of me for standing my ground
and had even more respect for me now than he did before.

     We started out and got about a block and noticed we were being
followed by Jack and his goon squad.  I had forgot all about him with
everything else going on.  We walked faster and they kept up.  Jack and his
friends caught up with us.  This was not going to be pretty for any of us.
We were out numbered four to three.  Jack grabbed me by my neck and I
instantly kicked him straight in the nuts and he fell to the pavement.  We
took our chance and started to run with his friends helping him up he
yelled for them to get us.  We ran as fast as we could but they were
football players and soon caught up with us.  Jack pushed me against a
brick wall that was close by and put his hands around my neck.  "I should
choke the life out of your faggot ass right now squirt.  He made a
dangerous mistake."  Jack said as he sneered at me.

     Just then I heard Stephen cry out, "Get your damn hands off my
boyfriend you asshole!!!!"  Just then Jack's body went limp and he fell to
the pavement and I looked up and saw Stephen standing over him with
clenched fist.  "Nobody hurts my friends especially my boyfriend and my
best friend." he said in a husky voice that didn't sound like him at all.
Al grabbed the two goons that had him and slammed their heads together.

     "Thankfully I'm on your side.  Remind me not to piss you off."  I said
with a big smile and rubbing my neck.

     "You never have to worry about that I would never hurt you and I am
going to make sure no one else does either."  Stephen said putting his hand
on my neck and rubbing the soreness out.  We walked the next few blocks
back to our house, damn that sounds strange to say.  We got home and told
the Greyson's what happened and Mr. Greyson wanted to call the cops but I
talked him out of doing that.  We had dinner at a small cafe just close to
the hospital so we could just walk over and see Greg.

     Greg was awake and we told him what happened and he tried to get out
of bed.  "When I get out of here I am so going to track his ass down and
cripple him if not worse." Greg said through clenched teeth.  Then he
noticed the disapproving look on Mr. Greyson's face.  "Sorry sir I just got
angry about what he did.  Please forgive my language."  Greg add solemnly.

     "Don't worry about it.  I know you kids talk like that.  I just ask
that you please not use it in front of Mrs. Greyson."  Mr. Greyson said.
We all agreed to it and visited some more.  The nurse came in and said that
Greg should be discharged some time tomorrow after the doctor makes his
rounds in the morning.  I then asked everyone if I could have a moment with
Greg by myself.  Everyone was nice and agreed.  Stephen whispered in my ear
and told me to tell him about my dream and I told him I had planned on it.
He rubbed my back and headed out the door with Al putting his arm around
him.  After everyone was gone I told Greg about my dream and about our mom.
I told him I had gone over to get answers about our uncle that died and
forgot when mom started talking about working on accepting me and Stephen
for who we were.
