A Thousand Rainbows

As usual Jason was the first into the shower stall, carefully adjusting the
temperature. Josh soon followed. He took his brother into his arms and drew
him closer, into a tight hug and a deep, open-mouthed kiss. Their tongues
danced together as their hands roamed across each other's backs, caressing
their developing muscles and tight asses. Their hard dicks were pressed
together between their teenage bodies.

Still holding his brother close with one arm, Jason reached for the bar of
soap and began to wash his brother. Josh gave himself completely to Jason's
ministrations, allowing every square inch of his body to be stroked and
cleansed of the grime that had accumulated during their soccer game.

Jason turned his brother around to wash and massage his back. As his hands
went lower, Josh bent over to allow Jason access to his sphincter. Although
anal intercourse had not yet entered into their emerging sexual
relationship, they knew of the sensitivity of that part of a man's
body. Jason kept has ass-play limited to stroking and tickling his brother.

Josh quietly moaned. "Oh, Jason, that is so good. Mmmm." His eyes were
closed as Jason kept his attention on soaping every square inch of his
brother's body.

Jason reached between Josh's legs to wash his brother's balls and cock,
using the soap as both a cleaning agent and a lube. Josh's penis responded
to Jason's touch, growing very quickly to its full six inches. Jason slowly
stroked his brother's dick. Josh's eyes were closed, and his breathing was
deep and even as his brother continued his massage.

Jason released his brother's cock for just a moment as he stood to fetch
the removable showerhead. Stooping back down behind Josh, he adjusted the
spray to the "pulse" setting and aimed it at his brother's pucker to wash
away the soap and to tickle his sphincter even more. Josh responded to the
spray with his eyes closed and deep, even breaths.

Jason replaced the showerhead and reached around Josh's legs, resumed
stoking his brother's dick. Then, without warning, he plunged face-first
into Josh's rectum. Jason's tongue found his brother's sphincter, tickling
it and gently probing.

"Oh, Jason," Josh gasped.

Jason pulled out for just a brief moment. "You like that?" And then he
plunged back in.

"Yes," Josh moaned. "Mmmm. That is so good. Please, don't stop."

Jason 's tongue probed a little deeper as warm water cascaded over the
twins. His left hand continued stroking his brother's dick as his right
hand fondled Josh's balls, rolling them in their velvet sac. It wasn't long
before Josh's scrotum contracted as he got closer to his climax. His
breathing became more shallow and ragged, but Jason did not let up on his
attack on his brother's prick.

Josh squeezed his eyes shut and let out a moan as his orgasm hit, sending
waves of pleasure through every nerve and fiber of his body. His young
sperm flew from his cock in four or five jets, landing on the wall of the
shower stall, there to be washed down the drain.

He hung his head under the warm spray, regaining his breath and basking in
the afterglow of his orgasm. Standing up in front of his brother, Jason
took Josh in his arms and placed a gentle kiss on his lips. Josh smiled and
looked into his brother's eyes.

"Thank you, Jason," he whispered. "I love you."

"You're welcome," Jason whispered back.

Josh stood up straight and let the warm spray hit him full force in the
face for a moment, then took a deep breath. "Okay, your turn."

Jason paused for a moment. "It can wait," he finally said.

Josh looked at his twin with some concern. "Are you sure? Is everything
alright?"

Jason gave his brother a re-assuring smile. "Yes, I'm sure. There's other
people waiting to use the shower, and we've got all night ahead of us."

Knowing his brother as well as he knew himself, Josh knew this to be the
truth. He returned Jason's smile and drew him in for a deep kiss under the
warm spray. "I love you, Jason," he whispered.

"I love you too, Josh."

As the twins entered their bedroom, they came face to face with their
adopted step-brother sitting on the bench in front of the computer desk,
still wearing his gym shorts and T-shirt.  They had not expected to find
anyone in their room. Fortunately they had the good sense to wrap
themselves in towels before exiting the bathroom. All three faces expressed
surprise.  Todd was the first to break the awkward silence.

"Have a good shower?" he asked. "I came back because I wanted to hear your
song again."

"Todd ..." Jason began.

"Okay, that's not really it," Todd said, then he paused. "I heard you guys
through the wall. It's not like I was eavesdropping or anything like
that. So you don't have to explain anything.  But you guys are my brothers,
and ..." He trailed off.

"And you deserve to know what's what," Josh finished the sentence for him,
much to Jason's amusement. "What?" Josh looked at his twin.

"He's gotta be our brother," Jason explained with a wide grin. "You're
already finishing his sentences for him."

Josh rolled his eyes, shook his head and sat down on the bench beside Todd
while Jason sat on the edge of the bed. "See what I have to put up with? So
where do we start?" Josh asked. "What do you want to know?"

Todd tried not to appear uncomfortable as he shifted his gaze from Josh to
Jason and back to Josh. "Well," he began pensively, "you guys shower
together?"

"Jason and I have been together since the day we were born," Josh
began. "We're identical twins; we share everything. Sometimes it seems like
we're one person ..."

"... Like when we finish each other's sentences ..." Jason interjected.

"We're always together, even when we're not in the same room," Josh
continued. "There's even been times when we dream the same dreams."

"Now, that sounds spooky. Some kind of ESP connection?" Todd asked.

Josh shrugged. "Maybe; we don't really know. I don't think I have a choice
but to love the boy who is my other half. It would be like not loving
myself if I didn't love him."

"You do everything together?" Todd continued his questions.

Jason answered that one. "Well, there are a few things we don't do
together. I mean, a guy's gotta have a little privacy every now and then."

"But you really don't want to know about that," Josh interjected.

"Notice, if you will," Jason continued, "there are two of almost everything
in this bedroom ...  two dressers, two desks, two chairs, two closets
... and ... uh ... two beds."

Todd ventured a guess as to what that meant. "So you guys don't sleep
together."

Josh looked to Jason for support, then turned to Todd. "Well, we never said
that."

"So you do sleep together," Todd concluded.

"Most nights, yes," Josh admitted. "And that's the way it's been as far
back as we can remember. It was no big deal."

"But over the past couple months," Jason continued, "well, we're boys
growing into men.  We're changing."

"You mean ... puberty?" Todd asked.

"Yeah, but that's not going to stop us from being together and doing all
the stuff we do together," Josh said.

"So you're fooling around together," Todd said, matter-of-factly.

Jason and Josh looked at each other, slightly taken aback. Todd did his
best to put them at ease. "Guys, it's okay. I know several gay guys who
work around the agency. It's no big thing. They're some of the coolest
people I've ever met."

"I don't really know if Josh and I are gay," Jason said. "I don't know if I
could ever be closer to anyone than to my own twin brother. I'd be lost
without him."

Josh agreed. "It's not like we go after any other guys. This guy right here
..." He pointed to his brother. "This is the guy I want to be with."

"I'm cool with that, bro," Todd said. "If you guys have got a good thing
going and you're gonna keep it going, then it's a beautiful thing. Do your
folks know?"

"Brian caught us about three weeks ago," Jason said with a sheepish
grin. "It was only the second or third time we had ever done anything."

Todd was curious. "What did he do?"

"Well," Josh jumped in, "let's just say we have the coolest parents in the
world. They told us to have fun, to respect each other's limits and keep
what's private private."

"No shit?" Todd was astonished. "You guys are lucky to have such cool
parents. I don't know what my folks would do."

Jason immediately recognized what Todd was trying to say. "You mean you
...?"

Todd's voice dropped to a whisper. "Can you guys keep a secret?"

The twins held up their right hands with the first two fingers
extended. "Twins honor," they said in unison.

"I've got this friend at the stable club, same age as me," Todd continued,
lowering his voice even more. "And we've been fooling around together since
we were ten."

"No way," said Josh.

"Way," Todd whispered with a slight smile.

"How did this all get started?" Jason asked.

"Well," Todd began, "I had to use the restroom one Saturday afternoon. I
was in such a hurry I must have forgotten to lock the door behind me. Next
thing I knew there he was standing next to me, whipping it out like it was
no big deal. We ... um ... checked out each other's equipment, and one
thing led to another. When we finished our business, he asked if I had ever
had anyone give me a blowjob. I said `What's a blowjob', and he went down
on me right there."

"That's way cool," Josh said.

"Now, ya gotta understand the `cowboy way'," Todd continued. "When someone
does you a favor, well, you really ought to return the favor. So I did. It
was incredible. And we've been fooling around ever since."

"Has he got a name?" Jason asked.

Todd smiled with fondness at the thought of his fuck-buddy. "Yeah. It's
Corbin van Dyke.  And he's full-blooded Apache Indian."

Josh was curious. "Corbin van Dyke doesn't sound like a very Indian name to
me."

"Well, he was born on a reservation, but his parents died when he was two
years old. He lived with his grandmother for a while, and then he was
adopted by a doctor and his partner who work on the reservation," Todd
explained. "His Indian name is something like Gaage Akonye. He told me that
Gaage is the Apache word for crow, just like Corbin is ... I think he said
it was Celtic. And his adoptive parents let him keep his name. Oh, and his
adoptive parents are two gay men."

"Way cool," said Jason. "So are you two ... y'know?"

"Boyfriends?" Todd finished Josh's question. Then he shrugged. "I don't
know. I really like him. There's some afternoons we sit on the fence at the
corral after our chores are done and talk about the girls who go riding
by."

Both Jason and Josh regarded their half-brother with some skepticism.

"Okay," Todd conceded. "We talk about the guys too. But we're young, we're
just starting out, and we got time to try all kinds of stuff."

"That's the spirit," Josh said.

Todd suddenly became quiet. "I wish you guys could meet him. He might even
teach you two something about soccer."

"And he plays soccer too?" Jason raised an eyebrow at Josh before turning
back to Todd.  "Sounds like you found a keeper, bro."

Todd looked down, a bit embarrassed. He smiled at the thought of his Apache
friend, then looked up at Jason. "Yeah, we're good together. Uh, not to
change the subject, but are you guys gonna get some clothes on, so I can
hop in the shower before dinner?"

Josh rose from his seat on the bench, then turned to face Todd. Jason rose
from the bed at the same time and stood by his brother. "Maybe you'd like
to stay and watch the show?" he teased as he started removing the towel
from his waist.

"Maybe I would," Todd shot back. "But, if it's all the same to you, I know
what a boy's got under his towel, and Corbin is all the show I
need. Thanks, anyway." He got up and moved toward the door, then he turned
back to face his half-brothers. "I want you to know I love you guys," he
whispered.

"Same here, Todd," Josh said as both he and Jason held their arms out to
their half- brother. Todd stepped back toward the twins, and they drew him
into a tight embrace. He buried his head between his brothers'
shoulders. Then he looked up and tenderly kissed both Jason and Josh.

"Thank you for being my brothers. Thank you for letting me tell you," he
whispered. "It's getting harder and harder to keep this secret to
myself. I'm glad I could share it with you. I hope Corbin and I can someday
have the same relationship you guys have."

Jason looked into Todd's eyes. "That's quite a compliment, bro." He glanced
at his twin, then looked back at Todd. "But a lot of the world just isn't
ready for this kind of thing. Just play safe, and remember to keep what's
private private."

"Thank you for trusting us," Josh said, as he drew his brothers into
another tight hug. Then he noticed that his erection was causing a tent in
his towel. He could feel Todd's erection pressing against his leg, and he
was sure Jason was having the same reaction. "Um, but I think we better let
this boy hit the showers before things get out of hand."

"Agreed," Jason said.

"Me too," Todd said as he stepped back to adjust the growing hard-on in his
shorts. He smiled at the tents in the twins' towels, then started
giggling. Jason and Josh looked at each other with growing grins, and
started giggling themselves. Before long they were all laughing at their
own natural reactions. Todd leaned in to kiss his brothers again as the
laughter subsided. They all stood looking at each other with sheepish grins
until Jason broke the silence.

"So go hit the showers, Todd." He turned Todd around and gave him a nudge
toward the door.

"Yeah," Josh agreed. "There's only so long we can take the smell of stale
soccer sweat."

Just at the door Todd turned to his brothers with a smile. "Well, just you
wait until Saturday.  A day in the saddle will turn a couple tenderfoots
like you into mare-sweat."
