You are so much like your mom and dad in many ways, it's not fair that you lost both of them at such a young age. But you're part of our family also. No matter what you face in life you have all of us as a family. You are always going to be loved by each of us, and each of us will get through this together. Mary done everything she could for your dad." "But why?" said Cameron. "I just don't get it, why me, why my dad?" "Cam if I had answers to those questions, I would love to give them to you. But you know there are a lot of bad people in the world, who care nothing about others. But luckily you were raised by the most amazing people in the world, and you have a loving heart don't let this change the person you are." "I'm trying Uncle Aaron, but I don't think I'm strong enough to get through this. " Cam said. "Cam I am here for you man, you're my best friend" Brendan replied. "Can I go up to Brendan's room for a while please?" Cam begged in tears. "Sure Cameron" Aaron said. Cam got up and made a rapid retreat to Brendan's room with tears streaming down his face. Brendan immediately got up and turned towards Aaron and said "Dad I gotta go be with Cam, he needs me now more than anything in this world." "I agree Brendan, but be careful with him at the moment he has a lot going through his mind." (Brendan's POV) Brendan slowly entered his room, and found Cameron sitting on the edge of his bed with his head buried in his hands sobbing. "Cam I'm so sorry man, I know your dad was your life." Slowly Brendan sat down next to Cam and gently hugged Cam. Cameron latched onto Brendan for everything he had left of his life. After a while the sobbing subsided and Cameron looked up to Brendan with a whisper he said "Brendan I have a secret that only my dad knew, and I don't want to lose you too." Brendan's response was "Cam nothing you can say or do would make you lose me." Cameron put another bear hug on Brendan and said "but I'm gay, you're not gonna want me around no more now that I had to tell my secret to you." "Cam I think, umm... no, I know I'm gay to so your secret is safe with me. I love you Cam, but I was always too afraid to tell you for fear of losing my best friend" Brendan stated from the heart. (Cameron's POV) "Wow, I don't know what to think after today. I lost my dad, and worried about losing you over my secret to learn you had the same secret Brendan. But for the time being can we make sure nobody else finds out about my secret. I don't know how everybody else would take it." Brendan turned to Cam and said "Cam I'm sure everybody will be fine with us, but lets worry about you and your dad for now. Everything else will work out with time ok man?" Ya sure Cam thought to himself everything will work out, like my dad being here for me he mulled over in his mind. "Ya sure Brendan" Cam said. "Brendan what is gonna happen to me now?" Cam asked briskly. "Well I'm only guessing but my dad did say that your dad had papers made up that if anything were to happen to him you were to become part of our family permanently. So I guess my room, is now our room from now on. I'm sure dad will take care of everything including you Cam" Brendan said with conviction. "But.... I mean... what if your mom and dad don't want me? What if I'm not good enough? What if I mess things up? I mean I don't want you not liking me because your stuck with me around here." Cam stated. Brendan sat there contemplating a way to show or tell Cameron he was going to be there for him until the end of his life. The only thing that Brendan came up with was by reaching over and gently caressing his cheek and slowly leaning in to Cam and giving a simple kiss. Cameron just sat there staring off into the world. "Um... uh... Brendan... I can't say I know how my life is going to go, but with you by my side means the world to me." "I'm never going to be far away Cam, anything you need I'm here and hopefully you know that now" Brendan said. "I do believe that now, just promise if you get tired of me that you will tell me... ok?" "Not gonna happen Cam, we grew up together, we have been friends ever since we were born. Hell... all I know is you and Alex mean the world to me. I'm not letting nothing happen to either of you." Brendan said. A short while after that Alex knocked on the door saying " Dad got pizza and said to have you guys come down to eat. But also Cam, I wanted to tell you I know we aren't that close but from this point forward you got a new big brother if you want me as one." Cam sat there with tears starting to form again and whimpered out "thanks Alex, I think I'm going to need my new big brother a lot from now on." Alex walked over to the bed and grabbed Cam into a big hug and said "you got it bro, and I got your back from now on little man." The boys scampered down the stairs to the kitchen and commenced into an eating machine that three teenage boys are only capable of. Aaron sat there sipping on a cold beer watching the boys eat, as he himself wasn't all that hungry after the day that he had. After four slices of pizza each the boys looked and saw Max sitting at Cam's side eyeing up a piece of crust sitting on the table. Cam reached down and scratched Max between the ears and asked Aaron if he could give him the piece of crust. Aaron simply nodded. Max took the crust and went under the table and woofed it down as if it were a lobster with decadent butter. After eating the boys went and got showers. Then all three boys came back down stairs to say goodnight to Aaron. Alex headed to his room immediately after, but Cam and Brendan lingered around the living room. Aaron sensed there was something more that needed to be said and done at that point. He got up from his recliner and hugged both of the younger boys and said "boys I love you both and I may not say it enough but I do." Both the boys made their retreat towards their bedroom. Cam crawled into Brendan's bed and stared at the ceiling wondering how he is going to face all of the changes ahead of him, but then he thought if this is what had to happen atleast he has the best people in the world caring about him. Both boys snuggled closely together with Brendan embracing Cam, and sleep quickly took over. The next morning both boys were laying in bed when they smelled bacon cooking. Quickly both boys got out of bed and made haste using the bathroom and rushing downstairs to find Mary home from work cooking breakfast. She pulled the skillet from the stove and grabbed both Cam and Brendan into a group hug, which both boys eagerly returned. Mary then told both boys how much she loved them and that she was taking a week off of work to help sort through the issues they faced as a family. Cam asked Mary where Uncle Aaron and Max were, and her response was "they had to go in to work to help with making arrangements, but they should be back in about two hours hopefully and then Aaron is going to take the both of you over to your old house to get your dad's uniform and stuff for the funeral home to get ready for the funeral Cam. Also Cam, do you have dress clothes? If not we will take you to get some new ones so you look good for your dad. " Cam thought to himself for a bit before he responded "I have dress clothes that my dad liked and I had for school pictures last year." Mary said "ok while your at your old house make sure to grab them so I can clean and press them and bring some of your stuff over that you many need for a few days and we will get the rest of your stuff sorted after the funeral. But for now lets eat I'm starved, the hospital food isn't that good even if you're not a patient." Both boys laughed and dug in whole heartily to the bacon and eggs that were presented to them. At around noon Aaron and Max made their return home. Max made his mad dash to his water bowl and drank like he was in the desert, which made the younger boys laugh. Aaron and Mary shared a kiss, which made the Brendan tell them to get a room mom and dad. Aaron turned and laughed before saying "I think this house is my room, but actually we have more pressing things to attend to. Are you boys ready to go?" Brendan and Cam nodded. Aaron and the boys walked across the yard into Cameron's house. As Cameron entered the house he said "This isn't home anymore, not without my dad. It was hard when mom died but this is worse." Tears were trying to make their escape, but Cam was putting up a good front. Cam looked to Aaron and said "my dad's uniforms are in his closet do you ... would... could you get them yourself I don't think I can go in there ever again." Aaron placed a firm grip on Cam's shoulder and nodded. Aaron said for the boys to get whatever Cam needed for a few days and reminded him to get his dress clothes. About fifteen minutes later the guys returned home. Mary took Cams clothes to the laundry room and got them washing saying she would make sure they were perfect for the funeral. Aaron said to everybody he was heading out to Carson's Funeral Home to drop off the things they needed to complete the arrangements. Which he said would discuss upon his return with everybody. Alex decided to roll out of bed at two in the afternoon which Mary chastised him about, but his response was "mom its summer and I like to sleep in you know that." Which caused Mary and the other boys to laugh and roll their eyes. Around four pm Aaron returned home and the family went into the game room to discuss the funeral arrangements. Aaron commenced with "guys the visitation will start at 3 pm tomorrow and will last until 9 pm, the funeral will start friday morning at 11 am and be held in the high school auditorium. The funeral procession Cam will be quite large, last I knew were have heard from over two hundred police departments that are planning to be present in honor of your dad. There will be a grave side service also, with honors and the governor will be there also. So if it is to much for you Cam, you need to tell us your uncomfortable. Ok? We will all be riding in a limo Cam, so you will have each of us but Max will also be with us. Well I guess I covered everything and if I forgot anything Cam, I'm doing the best I can." Cam got up and lunged into Aaron's arms crying freely for everything he had done for his dad. =========================================================================== Well there is chapter two guys, let me know what you think. Lots of stuff to come in the next chapter, the funeral and many more issues present themselves. Lots of love to the men and women in blue, and their families.
