CHAPTER THIRTEEN: THE FALLOUT

TREY'S POV



This was a nightmare. I had always envisioned my coming out, but in no way
did I imagine it would be like this. Dammed Drake. I hated his fucking
guts, and Liberty, I couldn't believe she would go along with him. The look
on Bear's face as he left with Jessica and Justice. He looked like he would
never see me again. I hope that wasn't true.

"Trey, I... I can't believe this" mom said looking at me like I was a
stranger.

"Mama, it's still me. I'm still your son" I said taking a step toward
her. She took a step back. She looked like she regretted it, but she didn't
try to rectify her mistake.

"I- I need a minute" she said as she started to turn.

"Mama, please" I begged. I started toward her again.

"Don't! Just stay there" she said then she walked toward the kitchen and I
heard the backdoor open and close.

I couldn't leave it like this. Drake, Liberty, Zane, Calvin, Dad... they
all hated me but I couldn't leave it like this with my mom. I headed in her
direction but a hand grabbed my arm. I knew dad was the only one still in
here and I prepared myself for the onslaught. The hateful words, the
probable violence.

It never came though. What came was that he pulled me to him and wrapped me
in his arms and I broke down. I cried for all the crap I had held in for so
long. The self-loathing and fear. I cried because while I knew my brother
hated gays, I wasn't prepared for that look of revulsion and disgust in his
eyes directed at me. The words he said. I cried because Liberty, my oldest
and closest friend aside from Bear turned her back on me. I cried because
my mother, the woman who carried me in her stomach for 9 months walked away
from me.

"It's ok son. I got you" he said and his arms tightened around me and I
cried some more. He lead me to the couch and sat me down. He held my head
to make me look at him.

"It's going to be fine. I know it may seem like things are going to hell
but it's going to be okay, eventually" he said so soothingly that my heart
hurt. I couldn't believe he was doing this. He was the first above all
others that I expected to reject me yet here he was comforting me.

"Why are you doing this?" I asked through tears.

"Doing what?" he asked.

"Comforting me. I heard you. You and uncle Taylor when I was ten." I
said. He looked confused for a few seconds then recognition hit and he
looked like I had punched him in the gut.

"Oh Trey, I didn't mean... No. I did mean it" he said and my world started
to collapse even more and I dropped my head and a few more tears leaked
out. He grasped my chin and brought my head back up so I would look at him.

"I understand" I said in a voice that sounded so devoid of emotion that it
hurt me even though it was mine.

"I did mean it, at the time. I've had time to think about things for a
while now and I've come to a conclusion. You are my son, you are apart of
me, the only one of my kids that has my eyes. In those eyes I see the baby
I brought home from the hospital. The little boy who used to run up to me
when I came home from work and latched on to me like I was a lifeline. I
see the preteen who was depressed for so long and I couldn't do anything
about it and it hurt me so bad. I see the almost grown man who loves
another man and I'm finding that I can accept that" he said with so much
emotion in his voice and eyes that I could barely stand it.

"Dad" I was able to say around the lump in my throat. He got a smirk on his
face and I knew he was up to something.

"Besides, I already knew about you and Bear" he chuckled at the wide-eyed
look I gave him.

"What? When?" I managed to ask.

"I remember opening the door to your room a couple months ago. Wanna know
what I saw?" He asked and I was intrigued and slightly terrified. "I saw
you cuddled up to Bear, your head laying on his chest and your right hand
resting over his heart. I saw him with his right arm wrapped around you as
if he was trying to protect you from the world, and I saw the most peaceful
look on his sleeping face than I think I have ever seen. Like there was no
place else on Earth he would rather be. You had a smile on your face and
looked about the same. I didn't know how to handle that so I tried to push
it down. Then when he stood behind you a bit later, and put his hands on
your shoulders and your head was resting against his stomach, and I saw
your reaction to all that, it came back up and I had trouble dealing with
it" he said and I was stunned. I didn't know that he had seen me, and I
didn't know that Bear had had his arm around me as he hadn't when I had
woken up.

"I don't get it. If you knew why didn't you say anything?" I asked
dumbfounded.

"Well I guess at first I just suspected, and I didn't know how to deal with
it. I feared saying the wrong thing and not being able to take it
back. Then after I had worked out my feelings, that I figured out that I
could never hate you no matter what, that I thought it best that you came
to us on your own. That doesn't mean I didn't mess with you though" he said
with another smirk.

"What do you mean mess with me?" I asked.

"Well one thing is that I specifically told Bear the story of the locking
doorknob up at the cabin with the intention that he draw the conclusion he
did" he said with a huge grin on his face. I was shocked again.

"You wanted me and Bear to have sex?" I asked not believing what I was
hearing, even though we didn't have sex then.

"No son. I wanted you and Bear to be able to be close to each other without
worrying about someone coming in and seeing you. Besides I knew you
wouldn't do anything what with Zane and Drake in the next room." he said.

"If you knew why didn't you-" I started but he cut in.

"If I knew why didn't I ever say anything to Zane about his anti-gay
comments?" he asked and I nodded. "Well I was waiting for you to say
something. I can't always be there to fight your battles Trey, but I'll
support you no matter what. I was waiting for you to finally tell your
brother where he could go. Then there was the fact that I also felt shame
because I have made similar comments in the past and I wasn't sure what you
had heard and what you hadn't. I guess you heard some" he said indeed
sounding regretful.

"Oh", was all I was able to say.

"It's why I wanted to have dinner tonight with you boys. I wanted you to
talk to your brothers and sort this out. I wanted you to not have to hide
your feelings for Bear and be open with him in front of at least your
family" he said and I was incredibly touched and proud and happy about the
fact that this was my father.

I thought back to all my interactions with dad ever since that morning I
woke up cuddled to Bear. Looking back there have been hints that he knew,
or at least suspected even before we got together. Then I thought about all
that happened today.

"Mom hates me" I said sadly.

"No Trey. You are her first-born. You are her son. Just as you are a part
of me, you are also a part of her, and I have faith that the woman I
married would never turn her back on her son" he spoke with so much
conviction that I almost believed him. "I'm gonna go and talk to her for a
while. I'll be back, with her. You'll see" he said.

He then kissed my forehead, got up and headed for the backyard where I'm
sure my mom was. I was suddenly feeling tired so I went up to my room.

************************************************************************

EVAN'S POV

I never would have guessed this would come out like this. My boy looked so
sad and defeated. I had to talk to Livvie. I probably could understand
where she was coming from. Not that long ago I would not have had a
positive reaction to anyone gay because they disgusted me. Then I saw my
son laying in the arms of the boy that has been with him almost all of his
life and they didn't look disgusting to me. They looked peaceful. Like they
belonged to each other.

I saw Livvie standing in the middle of the backyard. I walked up to her and
put my hand on her shoulder. She turned and I could see the war in her head
reflected in her eyes.

"Why? Why did my baby have to be like that?" she asked.

"Livvie, why does it matter?" I asked her in return.

"It matters because it does. Do you think when I looked at that boy when he
was born I thought that he was gonna grow up and want to be with a man" she
said and I tried to be patient.

"Liv, that's our boy in there. The two of us made him and I don't know
about you but I'm not gonna turn my back on him" I told her with as much
conviction as I could muster.

"I just don't know what to say to him. How not to look at him
differently. How can I get past this?" she asked desperately.

"You just do. I know what you're feeling. I felt some of those same
feelings. I don't know maybe I'm like this because I had more time than you
to get used to it" I told her.

"What do you mean you had more time? You knew about this?" she accused with
an edge.

"Well I suspected. Liv if you had just seen what I did. They love each
other so much. It's more than we could have ever known, or rather none of
us should really be surprised that this happened" I said but I don't think
I was getting through to her.

"Well I'm surprised. You think just because they were close all these years
that I was supposed to expect they would grow up to be lovers? They're both
boys" she said proving me sort of right.

"They're not the first boys to be together honey" I reasoned.

"I know that Evan, and what do you mean "if I had seen what you had seen."
What did you see?" she asked.

"I saw them lying in each others arms a couple of months ago" I said and
her eyes went wide.

"This has been going on for that long? You've known for that long and you
didn't think to tell me?" she asked.

"I don't think they were together then. I think they just ended up like
that in their sleep" I corrected. "You know how I check in on the kids in
the mornings, well the morning we cleaned out the garage is when I saw it"
I told her. I guess it was kind of weird but I had gotten into the habit of
sneaking into the kid's rooms every morning before I start the day and
watch them sleep for a few minutes. They were my kids and I loved watching
them. It let me know that they were safe and I guess relieve some of the
worry that I guess fathers have regarding their kids.

"I just don't know what to do now" she said desperately.

"Well now your son has had one of his oldest friends turn her back on
him. Has had his big brother call him horrible things. Then his mother
backed away and then walked away from him. What you do next will leave an
impression with him that will last forever so you better make sure you can
live with what you do" I stated finally. She didn't say anything but
instead just sat on the wood bench we had in the backyard.

************************************************************************

BEAR'S POV

I was in a daze. I couldn't believe Drake could be so heartless. I couldn't
believe Liberty could be so mean. I couldn't believe Zane could be so
vicious. This day had started out good, especially with the drought we had
gone through this past week, but now things were crap.

Before I knew it I was pulling up in front of my house and I then realized
that I had forgotten to take Jessica and Justice home.

"You okay Bear?" Justice asked.

"I... I don't know" I stated simply.

"We tried to text you but you didn't answer. I'm sorry" Jessica said.

"Yeah I left my phone in the truck so that's why I didn't get your text" I
said picking up my phone from the stash compartment on my dashboard. "Also
you don't need to apologize. You didn't do anything." I said trying to
assuage her fears but feeling so messed up myself.

I was regretting leaving Trey at home. Who knows what could happen to
him. We sat there in silence, until I saw my front door fly open and my dad
come storming out of the door looking angrier than I had ever seen him. Oh
shit.

"Barry, get your ass in here, NOW!" he yelled and then stormed back into
the house.

"I guess he knows" Jessica said softly.

"Dammed Drake. I bet he did it" Justice seethed. I agreed. I was definitely
regretting the day I met that bastard.

"Jess, I want you and Justice to go check on Trey for me" I told them.

"How? We don't-" she started but I silenced her by putting my keys in her
hand.

"Take my truck and go check on Trey. Keep it until I call for it" I said. I
kissed them both on the cheek and got out of my truck and went into the
house.

Dad was standing in the middle of the living room as I entered with mom a
bit behind him. He looked at me with such a look of disgust and anger. Well
this is just great. I heard my truck start up and back out.

"What was that?" he asked.

"Jessica leaving in my truck" I said on guard.

"Call her ass back here and get your keys. You won't be needing them
anymore" he said and I was worried. I mean I knew he couldn't beat me in a
fight but there were other things I couldn't stop.

"No, they need a ride home. I'll just go over and get it later" I told him.

"No you wont. You won't be doing anything but going to school, to football
practice, and to the games and then home" he said with an edge to his
voice.

"What, you can't do that" I said heatedly. "I won't-" I tried but he wasn't
having it I guess.

"You don't have a dammed choice. Wanna know when you lost that right? When
I got a phone call from Drake telling me my son is a fucking faggot. That
he walked in and saw you taking it up the ass from that dammed sissy Trey"
he spat with so much venom it made me sick. It made me hate Drake all the
more since he had lied to my father. Not that I hadn't thought about how it
would feel to have Trey slide that big black cock inside me. That was
besides the point.

"Lawrence!" mom shouted. "Watch your mouth."

"I will not watch my mouth when my fucking son wasn't watching his fucking
mouth" he told her with more venom.

"Wait a minute now" I said getting pissed off with him talking to mom like
that.

"Oh look, the little bitch wants to get all big. How long?!" he said and I
was losing my cool.

"How long what" I spat.

"How long have you been queering around with that faggoty ass pansy!" he
yelled and I balled my fist up to keep from doing something stupid.

"None. Of. Your. Business." I seethed.

"Well that's just fine, but I'll tell you something right now Barry. I hope
you had fun because it's the last time you're ever gonna see that little
pansy. You aren't going over there anymore and he sure as hell isn't
allowed in my house again" he said. Had this bastard lost his mind?

"Are you crazy? I love Trey and he loves me and we're gonna be together" I
stated adamantly.

"Is that a fact? Try me Barry. Go ahead I dare you. See what happens" he
countered and I glared. "Now get your ass upstairs. I'm sick of looking at
you" he said finally. I took a step toward him but my mom came to stand in
front of me, likely shielding him from me.

"Just go Bear. Please just go upstairs" she pleaded looking so fragile. I
decided to oblige her.

"Wait" he said and I stopped only because I wanted him to say something
else about Trey so I could put my fist through his fucking face. "Your
phone" he said holding out his hand. I looked at him for a minute before
slamming the thing in his hand as hard as I could. I saw him wince but try
to hide it. I stormed upstairs seriously pissed off. I wanted Drake dead at
that moment.

When I got to my room, I saw all my shit had been taken out. My TV, my game
systems, my laptop, my iPod, my iPad, my landline. All of it was gone.

I started to get pissed and go confront him about this but then I thought
of Trey and I didn't care anymore. He could have it all for all I
cared. All I needed was Trey and I wasn't gonna let him keep me from him.

I sat down on the bed and suddenly my head started to hurt. It was like my
head was in a vice grip. I had to lay down because my head was thumping. I
finally got up and went to my bathroom and downed a couple of aspirin and
went back to lay down.

************************************************************************

TREY'S POV

I laid in my bed feeling like the whole world was shaking. I was out to
everyone I knew that was close to me. Drake had outted me to my
family. Liberty had said mean things to me. My brother had called me vile
names. My mother had walked away from me, but everything hadn't been bad.

Shocker of all shocks my dad had unconditionally accepted me and showed me
he loved me no matter what. He had also confessed to conspiring to help me
and Bear be close without fear of discovery. So many things with him
clicked now with his behavior since Bear and I got together.

I was still thinking about dad and how he had accepted me when my bedroom
door burst open. I jumped up to see Zane coming in with Calvin tagging
along.

"Get up" Zane snapped as he came up to my bed.

"What?" I asked wondering what was going on.

"Get up faggot" Zane continued.

"Zane, maybe we should-" Calvin started to say but was interrupted by Zane.

"Stay outta this. Just stand there and watch" Zane spoke looking furious.

"Zane what are you doing? What do you want?" I asked getting worried as I
stood by my bed.

"So you wanna be a faggot huh?" Zane asked with a sneer.

"I never sai-" Was all I got out before I felt it. I felt his fist connect
with my jaw and it hurt like hell as my head snapped back.

He then punched me in the gut three times, then another punch to the jaw
which knocked me down to the floor. When I hit the floor it hurt even more
and then he kicked me in the ribs, and I couldn't believe pain like this
existed as the only real pain I had experienced before was that I fell from
a tree when I was 10 and broke my arm, but Bear was right there with me
holding me and talking soothingly to me and the pain wasn't as bad. This
was almost unbearable. Especially since it was my brother that was
inflicting this pain.

"Disgusting faggot. I'm gonna beat you until you tell me you're not one
anymore" he spat with a look of rage on his face so completely terrifying,
and I wondered if he was about to kill me right here.

He kicked me again and I wondered where my parents were. Again he kicked me
and I was able to look to see Calvin standing off to the side with an
unreadable look on his face. He kicked me again and I felt myself close to
losing consciousness and I prayed that Bear wouldn't hurt too much when I
was gone because I was sure that Zane intended to kill me this day...

************************************************************************

JESSICA'S POV

This whole thing was a huge mess. It didn't seem like it was real. This day
just kept getting worse and worse. As Justice and I sat in Bear's driveway
it was hard to leave him there knowing that his dad had to know. What could
two girls do though.

"Let's just head on over to Trey's" Justice said.

"What? We can't just leave Bear here" I stated incredulously.

"Jess, Bear will be fine. He's bigger than his dad so if something
happened... Trey is at home and, I get the feeling that he needs us. Just
drive, please" Justice pleaded. She had a desperate look on her face and
suddenly I was worried too.

I started the truck and it was briefly cool that I was driving Bear's
truck. I headed back to Trey's house and thought that Drake needed to be
castrated. Then I thought about Liberty, who I thought I knew. She needed
her dammed ass kicked. How could she take that asshole's side over Trey's?
I felt guilty thinking these things about Liberty while her twin sister was
right next to me.

"Dammed Liberty. I'm gonna kick her when I get home" Justice muttered and I
smiled that we were thinking alike.

When we got to Trey's street I got such a feeling of dread all of a
sudden. I glanced at Justice and she looked like she felt it too. I quickly
parked in front of the house and we were out of the truck in a flash.

We walked up to the door and while I was about ring the bell, Justice just
turned the knob and went in, and I followed.

As we got to the living room Trey's sisters came running down the stairs
looking scared and my heart dropped into my stomach.

"You gotta stop him. You gotta save Trey, please help Trey" Cara, I think
it was Cara said. I couldn't tell them apart.

"Cara what's wrong?" Justice asked. I guess I had been right and Justice
was able to tell which was which cause she had an identical twin as well.

"Zane, he's hurting Trey" Carly said through tears. Justice took off up the
stairs.

"Girls, where are your parents?" I asked and they pointed to the kitchen
and I figured they were out back. "Listen to me, go get your parents, now"
I told them heading up the stairs just in time to see Justice open the door
to Trey's room and what we saw broke my heart and made me sick. Zane had
picked a bruised and bloody Trey up by the neck and was hitting him in the
stomach.

Justice flung herself at Zane and stuck to his back cursing and swearing,
and I joined her.

"Get off me" Zane shouted as he flung both of us off of him. "Calvin don't
just stand there help me get these broads out of here" he spoke and I was
shocked that Calvin had grabbed me and dragged me out of the room. He was
surprisingly strong for 13. I shook loose just in time to see Trey's door
slam in my face and I heard the lock engage.

Justice was still in there though and a few seconds later I heard something
slam against the wall, and I just knew he had thrown her up against it.

That's when Trey's parents came rushing toward the room. His mom asked what
was going on while his dad tried the knob. Then he called to Zane and got
no response. I was suddenly terrified. Trey's dad then hauled off and
kicked the door open and I thought, wow. We saw Zane kick Trey who was back
on the floor one more time before he was thrown back by their father.

"What the hell are you doing Zane" he yelled sounding scared to death
judging by the look on his face as he stood in front of him while Trey's
mother held him lying on the floor. I was so scared that Trey was dead.

"I- I was" he said looking like he just now realized what he had just done
looking at Trey lying unconscious on the floor cradled by his mother.

"You beat my baby" his mother said, her voice so full of terror and horror
that I felt like crying.

"Ma, I-" he tried to say.

"Get out! Get your ass outta my fucking house right now!" she shrieked
hysterically.

"Get your ass outta my sight right now Zane. Go!" their dad said shouting
the last part.

He looked dejected as his shoulders slumped and he left the room passing by
me. Calvin followed him downstairs. I slowly walked over to Trey still
scared that he was dead. His dad knelt down near him and put his hand on
Trey's forehead and I heard a sob escape his throat.

"Trey" his mother said in a broken voice "Trey sweetie, please wake
up. Come on baby please say something" she croaked out and my heart was
shredded at the haunted tone her voice had.

"Mama" I heard in a small pained voice and I dropped to my knees as he was
alive and I was so happy that I no longer had the strength to stand.

"Baby, oh sweetie" she said as she cried and his dad cried. I heard a moan
and I looked over to see Justice standing up.

I had forgotten about her for a minute and felt guilty. She walked over and
helped me stand again. We stood there and watched Trey's dad carefully lift
him and lay him on his bed and they were both on the bed trying to see the
extent of his injuries. I cringed as I saw his torso as it was different
colors and none of them looked good.

Justice walked over to the bed and he looked up and grabbed her hand.

"I'm happy to see you're alright Trey" she said but she didn't sound
happy. She sounded cold and there was a dangerous tone to her voice. It
sent shivers down my spine. He tried to smile up at her but I guess it hurt
as he just grimaced.

"Does he need to go to the hospital?" I asked.

"We'll watch and see for a few hours" his dad said.

"Trey, I'm gonna go somewhere for a bit but I'll be back later" Justice
said still in that cold tone. He slightly shook his head and closed his
eyes. "Come with me Jessica" she said and walked out of the room and I
followed after a few seconds.

I followed her downstairs and out the front door, Zane and Calvin were
standing against Zane's car and I had never hated someone so much before. I
didn't even hate Drake as much in this moment. Justice stalked over to them
and just stared at Zane. He looked at her looking pissed off, but there was
something else there too.

"You hurt Trey. You brutalized your own brother" she said with that
dangerous tone.

"Just leave me alone" he said and I scoffed.

"Did Trey ask you to leave him alone?" Justice asked. He rolled his eyes
and she slapped him, hard.

When he recover he stood up straight and said "Look little girl, I'm not in
the mood so leave me the hell alone."

"Make me" she challenged. He looked pissed and I guess he was gonna grab
her and threaten her. Calvin tried to hold him back but he shook off his
hand. I started over because while Justice was mad, Zane was obviously
bigger than her.

What happened next shocked the hell outta me. Zane made to grab her arm but
she grabbed his hand, spun around while twisting his arm and kicked him in
the gut. Then with him distracted by the shock and pain she drove the heel
of her right hand into his nose, gave him three quick jabs to the gut, then
spun around again and kicked him square in the chest which sent him flying
about 10 feet across the yard. It was like something out of a martial arts
movie or something.

Calvin and I stared at this slack jawed while Zane lay on the ground trying
to recover from his ass-kicking. Justice walked over and stood over him and
his eyes shot open wide.

"You put your hands on Trey again and we will be having this talk again,
and I promise you, I really promise you Zane, that next time I won't be so
gentle" she spoke coldly but with so much venom that I wondered if those
words alone were enough to kill Zane. She then headed to Bear's truck and
after a few seconds I followed. I got behind the wheel, stared at her for a
minute, and started the truck and pulled away from this house where so much
had happened this day.

To be continued....

*************************************************************************

Well, that was hard to write but there it is. I hope you all don't like
hunt for me with torches or something. It was something that I had planned
from early in the conception of this story. That Trey's brother, not his
father would have the violent reaction to Trey being gay.

I know this will probably sound bad but there is a reason that Zane had
such an radical reaction to the revelation. It's not an excuse but a reason
nonetheless. A deeper look into Zane is coming up soon but right now the
aftermath of this day has to be dealt with.

Next chapter you get to see just how clever Jessica is as she does battle
with Bear's dad in a battle of wits. Who will come out on top?

The next chapter will be the first one where other characters take over
completely. Trey will not have a POV in the whole chapter. It will be
largely told from the perspectives of Jessica and Sean.

I have a new blog where I'll be discussing the story and from time to time
things about me. You can find it at nick-s-world.blogspot.com

I hope you like this chapter and stay with me as this episode is told. I'd
like to say thanks to John for his editing work. You can send him an email
to let him know how he's doing at jd.kaster1987@gmail.com. I appreciate all
comments which can be sent to me at thestoryguy9783@gmail.com.
