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

The house lay quiet with only the darkness surrounding everything in its path.
Everyone in the house currently lay sound asleep, with their minds lost in the
land of dreams. Jacob and Kyle remained sleeping only inches apart, with their
arms tightly wrapped around one another, and their faces so close, you would
think they were about to kiss. It almost appeared that they were afraid one of
them might just up and disappear during the night, and needed to be sure that if
anyone went to leave, they would wake up instantly.

Jacob's parents on the other hand slept on separate sides of the bed, not caring
to face one another, which they normally had done. It would seem they had an
argument at some point during the night, perhaps when Bill, his father, had
gotten home.

As for Matthew he lay by his lonesome not dreaming about anything in particular,
or at least not something he would care to remember. He had lain nearly
motionless in his bed thus far, not moving one inch since he'd tucked himself
in.

Outside of the house, the air was crisp and cool to the touch, considering the
sun had yet to rise above the horizon as it was still too early. Had anyone been
awake at the present, they would have heard the occasional car driving by, the
birds as they chirped away in their morning song, or even when two tiny feet
began to walk across their front lawn. The feet slowly made their way towards
one of the windows that was perched upon the second story of the house, however
this particular window was still clearly visible from street level.

Matthew awoke to a loud, hollow sounding tap. He slowly opened his eyes for a
moment and thought it must have been in his dream, but when he heard that same
noise once again, which sounded like something was hitting his window, he
thought, `What the heck was that?' He quickly jumped out from under his covers
and walked over towards the window.

Matthew quickly drew the drapes away from the windowsill and peeked outside. It
was still very dark out, with the only source of light coming from the
streetlights. Through the grimy glass, he managed to see the outline of a small
boy standing on his front lawn. Matthew was having a hard time making out who
was outside of the house; his window was extremely dirty with the remnants of
old rain droplets across the glass. As a result, he unlocked his window and
began to open it, and when he did, the cool morning breeze rushed into his room
and over his body. When his bedroom window was opened fully, he heard a young
boy's voice call up towards him.

"Hey Matthew, it's Nicolas, do you think I could come inside?" he asked through
the clattering of teeth.

"Dude do you have any sense of time? It's still dark outside. You had better go
back home before your mother realizes that you're gone and you make her worry.
Shit, you could make her have a heart attack or something," Matthew said as
quietly as he possibly could.

"C'mon, just let me inside, please?" he begged.

"Okay, fine! I'll meet you at the front door," Matthew said, closing the window.

`What the hell is he doing here this damn early,' Matthew thought as he made his
way down the stairs, however he was especially careful to pay attention to each
step that he took so the stairs wouldn't creak. After a few minutes of careful
foot planting, he accomplished his task of making it to the bottom without
making a single peep. He then walked to the front door, silently turned on the
light as he walked past the switch, and unlocked the front door to let Nicolas
inside of the house.

"Dude, seriously what are you doing here?" Matthew asked sternly. "I mean, the
freaking sun isn't even up yet. And how in the hell did you even know which
window was mine?"

"I just wanted to see you Matthew, I'm sorry. I couldn't sleep and I really
missed you, I felt like I needed to see you, like this very moment, so I got
myself out of bed and walked over here. Oh and about the window, I took a lucky
guess; I suppose I chose the right one then huh?" Nicolas said, rubbing his
hands over his arms to warm up.

Matthew stood slouching in front of Nicolas, straining to stay awake enough to
listen to what he was saying. However, he was still half-asleep and his eyes
merely peeked out from behind his half opened eyelids. He deeply desired to be
able to go back to bed, and underneath his warm covers, but he tried to fight it
and peered over at Nicolas. He saw that Nicolas was wearing a pair of black and
blue camouflage pajamas and a pair of white socks, with his regular running
shoes upon his tiny feet.

"Did you seriously walk over in just that?" Matthew asked, half yawning and
trying to stay awake.

"Uh, yeah, I suppose I did," Nicolas said, smiling, feeling somewhat embarrassed
that he'd left without a coat, or proper attire.

"I see ... well you wouldn't catch me dead walking six blocks in only that,"
Matthew commented nonchalantly.

"Yeah, well not a lot of people are awake at this hour, so no one seemed to
notice," Nicolas giggled.

Nicolas stared over at Matthew, noticed his cute pirate pajamas, but soon
realized just how tired Matthew appeared; he had the look of one who was
exhausted. Nicolas also realized just how early in the morning it was. "Do you
want me to help you wake up? Or did you just want to go back to bed?" he asked,
not caring to which option was chosen, all he cared about was that he was with
Matthew.

"Well let me think about this for a moment," Matthew said yawning halfway
through his sentence. "I really just wanna go back to bed."

"Okay no problem, and don't you worry about my mom realizing anything, she
sleeps until about ten or eleven in the morning, so I left a note on the kitchen
table that says I went out to play and would be back later," Nicolas informed
Matthew.

"I guess that's okay, I suppose, as long as she knows where you are, so let's go
get some sleep. But please walk where I walk on the stairs and be sure to do it
nice and slow – the stairs creak a bit," Matthew said. Nicolas nodded quickly
and began following Matthew, who extended out his hand and grabbed for Nicolas'
as they walked up the stairs at the pace of a turtle.

With the stairs successfully defeated, they made their way into Matthew's
bedroom without make a sound, or alerting anyone to their presence. Matthew's
hand held firmly onto Nicolas' and guided him towards his bed to go back to
sleep. Matthew got into bed first and laid himself down, with Nicolas scooting
in behind him into a spooning position. Nicolas then wrapped his arms around
Matthew and held him close to his body.

"I think I'm falling in love with you Matthew, I just wanted you to know that,"
Nicolas whispered softly, leaning forward and kissing Matthew on the back of his
neck.

"Let's talk about this a bit later, okay? I'm just so tired," Matthew yawned,
turning himself over to face Nicolas.

Matthew closed his eyes, placed his right hand on Nicolas' cheek, and kissed him
on the lips before falling asleep with their lips still latched together.

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

Jacob awoke at around nine forty in the morning to the sound of Matthew laughing
hysterical downstairs. He began to wonder why his brother was up this early,
considering he was usually the last person in the house to get his butt out of
bed. Thus, Jacob got himself up and tried his best not to wake Kyle. He quickly
put on a clean pair of purple undies that had white trim around the seams, which
he retrieved from the top dresser drawer, along with a plain white t-shirt.
After putting them on, he walked out of his bedroom and downstairs to
investigate what Matthew was doing. However, when he walked into the living
room, he found Matthew laying on the floor, with Nicolas hovering over him.

"Shit dude when did he get here?" Jacob asked, somewhat confused as to why he
was here in the first place.

"You got here around, what, four-thirty in the morning?" Matthew asked, looking
towards Nicolas.

"Yeah something along those lines," Nicolas said, nodding his head.

"What the hell! Four-thirty in the morning?" Jacob asked in his disbelief.

"Yeah, he said that he missed me and needed to see me. So he walked over here in
only his pajamas just for me," Matthew said, smiling, with Nicolas nodding once
again to indicate that it was indeed fact.

"Well you both need to start being more quiet before you wake up the entire
neighborhood. Anyway, why were you two laughing so freaking loud? Cause you did
happen to wake me up!" Jacob said sternly, placing his hands onto his hips.

"Oh, sorry about that, we were just wrestling around and Nicolas grabbed my
wiener and it sort of surprised me," Matthew said gleefully.

Jacob thought for a brief moment, while he looked over at Nicolas'. He noticed
just how much Nicolas seemed to have grown since the last time he'd seen him. He
had short brown hair, and beautiful blue eyes, just like Kyle. Of course, Jacob
absolutely adored blue eyes, and it didn't matter what person had them, they
still made him go stir crazy. Nicolas also seemed to now be a half inch taller
than Matthew, whereas he used to be shorter than Matthew, which would now put
him around four feet eight and a half inches tall, and looked to be only about a
hundred pounds, give or take. Although that was Jacob's guess, he wasn't about
to go over and pick him up, that would have been quite simply ... weird.

After Jacob had finished looking over Nicolas, he said. "Oh, I see. Well please
try and keep it down. I'm gonna go check on Kyle and see if he wants to get up
yet. If he does, then we can all hang out before mom and dad wake up. So I'll be
right back." He then left to make his way upstairs.

In the time it took Jacob to make his way up the stairs, an idea came into his
head on how he should try to wake Kyle up, and he knew that Kyle would like it,
or so he hoped. Once Jacob had reached the second floor, he walked into his
bedroom and lightly closed the door behind him. He stopped and looked over at
the bed and saw Kyle still sound asleep. Slowly he tiptoed towards Kyle and
kissed him on his sweet lips, but that didn't stir him from his restful sleep.
That didn't work, and he deeply hoped that it wouldn't. He then put his real
plan into motion. Jacob slowly curled back the covers that rested over Kyle's
amazing body and slowly started spreading his boyfriend's legs wider and wider.
Jacob then placed his mouth over Kyle's flaccid boyhood and began sucking on his
sweet tool.

Jacob felt as Kyle's boyhood began to grow and get hard within his mouth, but
Kyle remained sound asleep. `I guess I'm just going to have to work a little
harder,' he thought, before impaling Kyle's boyhood deep down into his throat
and worked him in and out of his mouth. He soon heard Kyle moaning, which also
caused Kyle's body to start squirming to these unexpected pleasures, and he soon
opened his eyes and smiled down at Jacob.

"Having a little bit of fun are we?" Kyle asked slyly, not concerned to the
pleasure that Jacob was causing over his body.

Jacob nodded while Kyle's boyhood was still deep in his throat, and since Kyle
was now awake, he let Kyle's boyhood slip out from his mouth, slowly licking as
it made its way. They both smiled at one another. Jacob then started kissing his
way up Kyle's body, making sure that he paid special attention and detail to
each nipple, before finally making his way up to Kyle's lips and kissing him
passionately. After a time of sensual kissing and light petting, Jacob pulled
away. "Good morning my sweet prince," he said, looking deep into Kyle's eyes.

"You're such a tease, you know that right?" Kyle commented, reaching for Jacob's
butt and giving it a gentle tap.

"Uh-huh," Jacob smiled. "So are you ready to get up pumpkin? Cause Matthew's
already downstairs, and so is his friend, Nicolas. Supposedly, he walked here by
himself at four-thirty in the morning. Weird if you ask me."

"Yeah I'm ready to get up, I'm starting to get hungry," Kyle said, reaching his
arms to the ceiling and stretching his body out.

Jacob was satisfied with Kyle's answer. He then got himself up from the bed and
strutted over towards his dresser. He quickly retrieved a clean pair of white
undies from the top drawer, and threw them towards Kyle, which hit him square in
the face. Deep down Jacob wanted to be able to see Kyle wearing a pair of his
undies; it just seemed sexy to share something so intimate. "I want you to wear
one of my pair today," he said, like it wasn't a big deal, but to him it seemed
hot, sexy in fact.

Kyle nodded and slipped out of bed, still buck naked, and pulled Jacob's undies
up his legs until they made contact with his boyhood. "You look mighty fine in
those," Jacob commented, looking over his boyfriend's body. Kyle smiled and went
to grab a t-shirt from within his backpack. Now that Kyle was somewhat dressed,
they went downstairs to eat some cereal.

"You two eat anything yet?" Jacob yelled, once they'd reached the bottom of the
stairs, but Matthew and Nicolas were still in the living room and didn't hear
him. Therefore, he called out again to see if they'd eaten anything yet.

"Nope!" Matthew replied, half-yelling back into the kitchen.

"Well do you guys want some cereal then?" Jacob asked.

"Yeah, I'm kinda getting hungry," Matthew announced as he made his way into the
kitchen with Nicolas following closely behind.

Jacob poured out four bowls of Lucky Charms for everyone and carefully placed a
bowl down in front of each of them. Jacob absolutely loved Lucky Charms; it was
one of his favorites and was sure to always remind his mother not to forget to
buy them every time she went shopping for groceries, hence this was quite a big
deal for him to share. Once Jacob had taken his seat beside Kyle, he quickly
looked over at him and then towards Nicolas. They were both preoccupied eating;
this was his chance. He quickly mouthed out, "Did you get to talk to Nicolas
yet?" towards his brother.

"What are you trying to say?" Matthew asked aloud.

`So much for subtlety,' Jacob thought. "Did you get the chance to talk to
Nicolas yet?" he asked, this time audibly.

"No, I haven't got that far yet. But I think we will after we're finished eating
though," Matthew replied, taking another large spoonful of Lucky Charms into his
mouth.

Nicolas swiftly looked between Matthew and Jacob. He was rather confused as to
what they were even talking about, although it wasn't long after that he clued
in and finally remembered what Matthew had mentioned to him before they went to
sleep earlier this morning. Nicolas shrugged his shoulders and went back to
eating his breakfast. Silence then reverberated throughout the household; no one
took the chance to speak, only the sounds of spoons hitting teeth could be heard
as they scarfed down what their growling tummies desperately desired.

Several minutes of silence then passed by, which made Jacob antsy, he didn't do
well with silence; in fact, he hated it. He knew he'd have to say something, do
something, before he ended up going stir crazy. "Okay seriously, this silence is
almost deafening. Please let's go and do something, anything, shit I'd even be
up for watching cartoons, and you know how much I hate those Matthew."

"Sure I suppose that would be fun," Matthew said, taking his last spoonful of
cereal onto his spoon and inhaling it down into his throat.

Jacob led the way into the living room, with everyone else following with bowls
in hand, except Matthew who'd finished eating and had placed his bowl into the
sink. Once they were all sitting on the couch, and had made themselves
comfortable, Jacob reached for the remote from off the coffee table. He then
switched to a local television station that usually played cartoons every
Saturday morning at this time.

The first thing that came across the screen was a commercial, it wasn't your
typical Saturday morning advertising where they would attempt to sell some lame
new toy that was probably made by kids themselves in sweatshops overseas, it was
different, and the boys hadn't even seen this one before.

"Now open, The Golden Samurai. Open to all ages, young and old," a young male
voice proudly announced. Jacob watched with great disinterest as three young
men, dressed up in funny clothes, jumped across the screen from one rooftop to
the next before finally jumping down onto the solid ground. The three young men
appeared to be dressed up like ninjas; they wore black robes with a mask and
hood, with the only part of their bodies that remained visible being their eyes.

`Ninjas? You've got to be kidding me,' Jacob thought. One second later, his
thoughts were confirmed when they started throwing metal throwing stars at a
target. Jacob instantly began giggling as they watched this very amateurish
looking commercial, but when these supposed ninjas started slicing melons with
their swords; he lost it and couldn't contain his laughter any longer.

Then it started getting weird when these robots came on across the screen. They
started talking about how they should come. `Yeah like that's going to happen,'
Jacob thought, as he wouldn't ever be caught dead at a place such as this.

A large looking sumo wrestler then came across the screen and threatened
everyone and anyone by saying, "Oh you better come or else!" while pointing his
finger at the camera. `Uh-huh, okay whatever you say mister,' Jacob thought
finally. After which, the sumo wrestler started showing off some of the
restaurants and the watersides that the theme park had.

"Yeah like you're ever going to get me up in one of those," Jacob said when he
saw just how high the slides descended from the skyline.

"What's wrong Jacob? That place looks so freaking cool! I'm gonna ask dad if we
can go," Matthew said loudly, before returning his attention back to the
television.

The commercial then listed their website at the end for some sort of kid's club.
`Big whoopee-doo,' Jacob thought once more; being negative was his normal, just
like fries and burgers.

"Hey can I use your computer Jacob?" Matthew asked suddenly.

"Why do you want to use it?" Jacob inquired, looking suspiciously towards his
brother, giving him the evil eye.

"DUH, I wanna go check out their kid's club! Obviously," Matthew said
sarcastically, Nicolas looked at Jacob too, eyes glinting; he was interested
too.

"Oh for the love of God, are you two serious? Aren't you a little too old for
this type of shenanigans?" Jacob protested, completely disgusted at the fact his
brother was buying into this.

"Oh you just shut up. So can I?" Matthew inquired once again.

"Fine, but seriously who in their right might would want to go to a theme park
to get a Japanese history lesson," Jacob commented reluctantly, however he was
almost sorry he'd agreed to let Matthew use his computer in that instant.

Matthew was overjoyed, that he projected himself from off the couch, and towards
the second floor to use Jacob's computer. After Matthew and Nicolas had
disappeared from sight, Kyle gave his boyfriend the evil eye; he couldn't
believe that Jacob would intentionally treat his very own brother like that.
"Seriously dude? You didn't have to crush him like that. Your brother found it
cool and interesting and you do that to him? So what happens if I liked it too?
Are you going to do the same thing to me?" Kyle inquired, furiously.

"Well he needs to learn to grow up sometime," Jacob replied bitterly.

"Look who's talking, like seriously dude! I don't even know who you are right
now. What's gotten into you?" Kyle requested sternly.

"I ... I ... I don't know. It just came over me. I'm sorry Kyle, can you forgive
me?" Jacob said, feeling his anger dissipate from deep within. `You're such an
idiot. Now he thinks you're this self centered asshole. Maybe he right. Maybe I
am,' he thought.

Kyle waited, and then waited some more. Their eyes locked onto one another,
stared blankly. Kyle hopped for Jacob to see just how wrong he was for treating
Matthew like he had. "Yeah it's alright, but not okay. I still love you though.
You just need to start treating him better is all. Matthew's your one and only
brother, he's all you've got, so start treating him like it," Kyle instructed
firmly.

"I'll do my best. I promise," Jacob said, leaning forward to plant a kiss on
Kyle's lips.

Time came to a standstill when their lips connected. Unfortunately, it might
have been their last, because what happened next sparked an outcry that would
send both of them into shock and send shivers down their spines. "What in the
bloody hell is this shit?" Sarah cried out, disgusted, surprised.

`Oh my God!' Jacob thought immediately, feeling as his eyes popped out from
their sockets. He slowly turned around and saw his mother standing at the
entryway into the living room. He wondered how he could have missed hearing her
coming down those creaky steps, but somehow he'd missed it and now all of this
could end.

Kyle turned pale, white as a ghost, and fell into shock; he quickly tried to
distance himself from Jacob and swiftly moved himself to the other end of the
couch. He looked over at Sarah and didn't know what to do except to cower into
the corner of the couch; he was afraid of what was going to happen next.

"Um well, uh, good morning mom," Jacob said, whilst he thinking, `Oh God, Oh
God, this is it – we're done for.'

"BILL! Get your fucking ass downstairs NOW!" Sarah screamed at the top of her
lungs down the hallway towards her husband.

The sound of a heavy-footed man started to descend rather speedily down the
stairs, with what sounded like two other sets of feet as well, but they were
less heavy-footed footed than his father's. Bill walked into the living room,
with Matthew and Nicolas peaking from behind him. "What is it honey?" Bill asked
hurriedly.

"Go on tell him Jacob," Sarah said condescendingly, looking down at her son and
pointing her finger at him, demanding him to speak up. However, he couldn't
manage to open his mouth to say a single word. Jacob looked blankly over at
Kyle, he wanted to ask what he should do, but even Kyle was at a loss for words.
"Don't make me count Jacob ... One! ... Two!"

"I kissed Kyle on the lips," Jacob proclaimed before his mother had managed to
count to three.

"Do you not see? This is exactly what I was talking about last night Bill. Two
young boys shouldn't be rubbing each other's tummies. That's not nothing Bill,"
Sarah said, beaming a smile over at her husband, which made her feel like she
was right all along, and that Bill was either just too dumb, or quite simply too
blind to see the signs.

"Jesus, just calm the fuck down for a moment Sarah," Bill barked, before
noticing that there were two small young boys standing directly behind him.
"Matthew, and ... you are?"

"Oh sorry dad, this is my friend Nicolas. He came over to hang out with all of
us today," Matthew said proudly.

"Oh okay. Well how about you and Nicolas go back upstairs so that your mother
and I can talk to Jacob and his friend for a moment ... in private," Bill advised
calmly, not wanting to let Jacob's actions interfere with Matthew's thinking, so
he slowly started directing them back towards the stairs.

"No way dad, we're not going anywhere," Matthew protested, pushing away his
father's hand and forcing his and Nicolas' way past him to go sit down on the
couch in between Jacob and Kyle.

"Fine, so be it. Now Sarah let's sit down and talk about this for a moment,"
Bill said, directing his wife over towards the recliner to sit down.

"TALK, TALK? Are you fucking mad? Our son, yes OUR son just kissed a boy and you
FUCKING WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT?" Sarah screamed at the top of her lungs, with a
hint of attitude in her voice.

"Yes I do, now sit your ass down," Bill requested sternly, while struggling to
contain the anger that had begun to well up in his voice.

Bill then left the living room and grabbed a chair from the dining room table to
sit on. With the chair in hand, he brought it back into the living room and
placed it beside the recliner, which was where his wife, Sarah, was sitting with
her arms cross, sulking at the current situation. Bill gave a sigh and plopped
his butt down into the chair.

The four boys, whom were all sitting on the couch staring over at Bill and
Sarah, weren't quite sure what they should do, or even what was expected of them
in this current moment. Therefore, they all just sat there without saying a
word, with just Bill looking over towards them, and Sarah looking down at the
floor crying her eyes out. Jacob decided he was going to take the first move,
scared as he was; he reached out for the remote and turned off the television.
Bill nodded and then smiled over towards the boys before he opened his mouth to
speak. "So ... Jacob, why don't you explain to your mother and me why you decided
to kiss your friend Kyle over there?"

"Well, I – uh, if you must know, I like, no I LOVE him dad," Jacob let out in a
raspy tone, with fear clearly affecting his ability to speak normally.

"GREAT! Just fucking great, I have a gay son," Sarah exclaimed, looking up long
enough to look at her son and then returned her eyes back to the floor.

"It's not that big of a deal Mom, look!" Matthew said, getting up slowly from
the couch and pulling Nicolas up with him, he then kissed Nicolas on the lips in
front of everyone and slowly sat back down, like it wasn't such a big deal.

This sent Sarah over the top as she swiftly got up from the recliner and began
to blabber God knows what. It was as if she were demon possessed while she
blurted out this and that from her foul mouth. Her reaction caught the boy's
totally off guard, causing them cower forcefully into the sofa's cushions behind
them.

"For fuck sakes Sarah, shut your fucking mouth and sit your ass down," Bill
instructed, even more sternly than before. Sarah sat back down, and Bill
continued. "Okay Matthew, why would you just do that knowing full well the
current state of the situation?"

"Well ... I kind of thought it would be funny," Matthew lied, as he knew exactly
what he was doing; he was antagonizing his mother.

"Well I would strongly advise that you don't do it again unless you really mean
it, because only people who love each other do those kinds of things. And for
that matter, if you do that again, then we're going to have to get your mother
committed into the psych ward," Bill giggled, who couldn't contain himself from
laughing. Then he became really blunt. "Okay, now seriously. Are you gay Jacob?
I'm sorry, but I need to ask you this."

"Why are you even asking me this Dad? Does it really matter?" Jacob questioned
in a bitter tone of voice.

"Well it matters to your mother, therefore, yes it does matter," Bill said,
quick and firm.

"Fine – yes it's true, your worst fears are realized, I'm gay. So is this going
to be a problem now? Are you going to kick me out of the house?" Jacob said,
even more bitterly than before, he didn't care right now, he said it and now it
was all out in the open.

"No, not at all Jacob," Bill replied in a tone that was absent of disgust,
hatred, and condescension, but with love and understanding.

This took Jacob by surprise. It was difficult for him to understand how his
mother could be so homophobic, so mean, it was totally beyond him. As for his
father, this was the most awkward part of it all; his father seemed to be
accepting of the fact of him being gay, or so Jacob perceived to be acceptance.
Then something shocking happened and it distracted Jacob from his thoughts.

Jacob looked over towards his brother and watched him carefully as he whispered
into Nicolas' ear, then they both stood up, held their hands together, and
kissed yet again in front of Bill and Sarah. It wasn't one of those little pecks
on the lips either, it lasted for no more than thirty seconds, but no less than
twenty-five seconds, they made it last, and made their point before sitting back
down onto the couch as if nothing had happened. You could visibly see the look
of shock that fell over Sarah's face and Bill's too, which in essence caused
Bill to rephrase his question. "Okay, maybe I've asked the wrong question here.
Are all of you gay?"

They all nodded towards Bill, and well, Sarah literally lost her freaking mind;
she went off on a temper tantrum of swear words, disbelief, and complete gay
bashing of all sorts. "Great, just fucking great, not only do we have one son
who's defective, but now we have two," Sarah said in her disbelief, which made
Bill stand up so fast that it surprised everyone.

"Sarah if I ever fucking hear you call one of our children defective again, I
swear to God. How dare you treat them like that? You really have some fucking
nerve putting down our kids like that, and their boyfriends too for that matter.
You should be ashamed of yourself," Bill yelled down towards Sarah, who became
instantly disarmed, which was surprising for the boy's, because in the end, he
was actually standing up for them, all of them.

"I ... I ... I'm sorry Bill, they're just so young, I ... I don't understand how this
could have happened. What could we have done wrong?" Sarah questioned, mumbling
to find her words.

"Let me ask you something and I want you to be honest with me," Bill said, calm
and collected. "When did you know that you like boys Sarah?"

"Uh, I guess I would say around nine or ten years of age, but what does that
have to do with anything that we're discussing right now?" Sarah asked, still
missing the point that Bill was attempting to make.

"Oh, but you were so young," Bill mocked, stressing his point even harder into
his wife's head. "How could you possibly know that you liked boys at that age?"

"Because I knew that I did? What's your point?" Sarah asked absent-mindedly.

"So how is it that you can say, `Oh but their so young,' when you knew full well
at the tender age of nine or ten that you liked boys, you're basically saying
that you knew you were straight even at that age. What in your mind makes you
think that this is any different? Our boys know exactly who they are, and you
wish to belittle them? Now C'mon Sarah, that's not fair at all," Bill said,
staring deep into Sarah's eyes.

"That's different. Girls are supposed to like boys; boys are not supposed to
like boys," Sarah said bitterly, looking over at the boys who sat on the couch.

`FUCKING BITCH!' Jacob thought, he just wanted to slap her across the face,
although he'd never do it, it's just how he felt, it was like she was driving a
dagger into his own heart. Jacob then looked over at his father, who seemed to
be thinking, looking off into blank space.

"So what is love Sarah? Can you tell me?" Bill asked softly after a time of
thinking.

"Love is a feeling, or even servitude to your family, doing anything that makes
them happy," Sarah said with confidence in her voice.

"NO! Love is blind! Love has no boundaries, it doesn't matter your sex, your
race, or your lifestyle. The only thing that matters is that you have a
spiritual bond with that person. So let me ask you again, if love is a bond and
love is blind, then what's the difference between two boys being in love?" Bill
asked, even more confidently than Sarah. "And do you honestly believe in that
thick skull they don't know they're boys? Like shit, if I can be okay about this
then you sure as hell can too."

"I see your point Bill, but I really wanted –" Sarah said.

Bill swiftly cut her off. "It's not about what you want! So stop being so damn
selfish! It's about loving our kids unconditionally. If they love each other
like I think they do, then you and I need to support them in this life changing
decision. Do you understand what I'm saying Sarah?" Bill concluded, feeling like
she was finally beginning to understand what he was trying to say.

"Yes, I guess I do understand that," Sarah said, feeling thoroughly defeated,
however, the fight in her wasn't convinced.

"Good I'm glad, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter what's between their
legs, but ultimately what they hold in their hearts. I had to accept this a long
time ago Sarah," Bill said, which made Jacob raise his eyebrows.

"What do you mean by that Dad?" Matthew and Jacob quickly asked in unison.

"Well, as for you Matthew, I can't say that I ever saw this coming. Jacob on the
other hand, I always seemed to notice the way you've interacted with girls, you
were always very awkward around them, and that's putting it mildly. But I can't
say I ever knew for sure. I just had this gut feeling inside that this would
come one day; plus you've always seemed more interested in boys than you were in
girls," Bill said.

Sarah looked blankly over at Bill. "How could I have missed these signs honey?"
she said softly, before she changed her tone and became increasingly angry. "AND
WHY IN THE HELL DIDN'T YOU EVER TELL ME?"

"Well let's first look at the way you've reacted today," Bill said, pausing for
a moment. "That's why! Furthermore, if I'm being honest with you, I wasn't sure
whether or not to listen to my gut; after all, it's not like I'm psychic."

Bill was at the end of his rope, and completely fed up with his wife's venom;
she had sprayed enough of it for her own good out of that foul mouth. As a
result, he returned his attention back to the four boys who remained motionless
on the couch.

Jacob noticed his father staring at them, so he chose to look around as well; he
really wanted to see how they were holding up compared to him. Matthew, Nicolas,
and even Kyle looked to be terrified, and traumatized by Sarah's words, her
inability to hold her tongue, and especially all of the hurtful things she'd
said; all of them were scared shitless of what she might say or do next.

After looking over the boys and saw the look of terror upon their faces, along
with the sweat that appeared to form over all of their brows, Bill stared down
at his wife like a man ready to hunt down his prey. "I believe you have
something to say to these wonderful boys, now don't you?"

Sarah looked up from the floor, looked deep into Jacob's eyes, but refused to
look at any of the other boys. "I ... I'm sorry ... boys, I ... er, honestly don't
know what to say. I'm ... sorry. I'm a horrible mother. What could you all
possibly think of me now?" she said, crying into the palms of her hands. "I love
... you boys very much. I'm sorry Bill." These awkward pauses were rather odd to
Bill.

Bill put it at the back of his mind and looked towards the boys. "I just have
one final question for you boys, and this one is very important, so I really
want you to think about it first," Bill said, looking each boy directly in the
eye. After getting a quick nod from them, he continued. "Do you love each
other?"

Jacob was the first to acknowledge his love for Kyle; he did so by nodding his
head quickly and grabbing for Kyle's hand. Matthew nodded as well and gave a
quick peck onto Nicolas' cheek, which caused Nicolas to blush slightly. "And
what about you Kyle, Nicolas?" Bill asked quickly.

Kyle nodded that he loved Jacob, and went to speak, but Bill stopped him.
Nicolas nodded as well and gave a light peck onto Matthew's cheek. Satisfied
with their answers and their obvious affection for one another; it was loud and
clear for Bill, there was no denying what they were saying was nothing but the
absolute truth.

"Well in that case, welcome to our family," Bill said excitedly, which was
surprising for the boys, on one side you had Miss Sarah, who seemed to have lost
her freaking mind, and on the other end of the spectrum you had Bill, who was to
say the least, the most accepting in this entire situation.

Sarah scowled when those words came out from her husband's lips; it was
disgusting to think, both of her sons gay, and now their boyfriends were family.
`What fucking shit is this,' she thought, but her lips kept tightly shut.

What Bill did next really threw the boys for a loop; he got up from the chair he
was sitting in and walked towards the couch, pulled each boy into his arms, and
gave them a very big hug. However, he didn't merely stop there, because he also
planted a kiss onto each of their foreheads. Once he was finished, he started
giving instruction to the boys. "Now why don't you all go back upstairs and get
yourselves dressed. When you're ready, I want you to come back downstairs to see
me. Sound good?"

No one attempted to say a word while getting up from the couch to leave the
living room. Jacob took a quick glance over towards his beloved Kyle, and
instantly believed that his sweet and gentle boyfriend was overwhelmed; he could
see it in his eyes, especially with the frown that appeared across his face. In
some regards, Jacob felt guilty for what his mother had said to them, it was
unfortunate, but he felt that no one should ever have to go through this type of
crap. Jacob deeply despised his mother and would do anything for this not to
have happened in the first place.

As the boys were about to walk into the kitchen, Kyle grabbed for Jacob and
hugged him as if his life had somehow depended on it; Kyle was familiar with
this feeling, rejection. He'd known it over these past four years, and it still
stung like hell. "It's going to be okay Kyle. I promise," Jacob said as he tried
to force everyone up the stairs to get themselves into some proper attire.

Of course, the stairs creaked as they normally did, however with their minds
preoccupied by the thoughts whirling in their heads, they somehow managed to
block out these sounds. Once they reached the top of the stairs, they stood
outside of Jacob's bedroom. "Why don't you two go get your clothes and then meet
Kyle and me back here," Jacob said swiftly.

"But I don't even have any of my own clothes here," Nicolas protested.

"That's okay Nicolas. You can always wear some of mine," Matthew said, while
quickly grabbing for Nicolas' hand and dragging him towards his bedroom. After
they had collected some of Matthew's clothes for themselves, they returned to
meet Jacob and Kyle, who'd waited for them. With everyone set, they walked into
Jacob's bedroom and shut the door.

"I'm really sorry Kyle. I didn't know that was going to happen. Are you guys
going to be okay?" Jacob asked, looking around at each of them.

"Your mom really scared the crap out of me," Nicolas said, to which Matthew
agreed.

"Kyle, I know that this must have been really tough for you. Not only have you
come out to your own mother, but you're out to mine now as well, in fact we all
are. So try not to worry too much and we'll get through this together, I
promise," Jacob said, feeling like he was giving sound advice, he just hoped
that it was bringing some comfort to them.

Jacob felt like he should be more assertive and proactive, so he walked up to
each of them and gave them all a much needed hug; this had been his last ditch
effort to comfort their nerves. After a few minutes, they appeared to have
calmed down and began getting themselves changed. Although while doing so,
Matthew realized the computer was still on and swiftly made a running dash over
towards it, wearing nothing but his blue underwear.

"Sorry, I never got to finish reading the entry rules for that theme park's Lego
contest they're having. We'd only just got up here when we heard mom yelling and
came running back downstairs behind dad," Matthew said eloquently, giving his
play by play account. "It says here it's being run by two boys by the names of
Josh and Kinshi. They're requesting that all submissions be at least seven
hundred pieces. I guess we could always build a Samurai; at least it would fit
their theme. Maybe about three feet tall, that should make it over seven hundred
pieces I think."

"Dude, do you seriously think that we own that much Lego?" Jacob asked, trying
his best to be nice.

"Hmm, I'm not really sure, but if we don't, then I could always go buy some more
with the money that I have saved up," Matthew said, looking over all of the
entry rules with a fine-toothed comb.

"C'mon boys, hurry up please," Bill yelled up the stairwell.

"Okay guys, I don't know why he's in such a rush, but let's try to hurry and get
changed," Jacob said.

After several minutes of gentle prodding to get everyone to hurry up, they
finally started making their way back downstairs to find Bill, who was already
waiting for them and sitting at the dining room table. "We're ready," Matthew
announced as he approached his father.

"Okay good. Now, I really think your mother needs a little bit of time to digest
all of this, so here's what we're going to do," Bill said, standing up from the
chair and reaching for his back pocket. He pulled out his wallet, and quickly
pulled out a wad of cash.

"What's this for dad?" Jacob asked when his father started handing out forty
dollars to each of them, which meant that this whole event was going to cost
Bill a hundred and sixty dollars.

Bill sighed. "Well I think you boys deserve a little bit of fun, so I'm going to
take you to the mall and drop you off. Maybe you could go see a movie together
or something. Now Kyle, Nicolas, I'm really sorry you had to see Sarah like
that, she's normally not like that, please don't hate her just yet unless she
doesn't change her tune. Anyway, if you guys could go get your shoes on then
we'll be on our way."

The boys quickly charged for the front door and grabbed their shoes from off the
floor. They passed Sarah, as she remained sitting in the recliner; but neither
of them said a word while they got their shoes on. Kyle and Nicolas were the
first to exit out the front door, while Matthew and Jacob hung back, quickly
said goodbye to their mother and joined their boyfriends outside.

Matthew took one final look back at the house, he had a weird feeling deep
inside of his gut as he exited out the front door; he didn't know for what
reason, all that he knew was it was something bad. While Matthew's mind was
distracting him, Bill walked over towards the garage door and announced that he
wanted them to ride in style. He then swiftly hit the garage door opener and
they all watched as the door opened to reveal his brand new Dodge Challenger
SRT8; it was Bill's pride and joy. It was lime green and had a manual
transmission. It amazed the other boys as they found it to be an amazing piece
of machinery, and Bill gained a few brownie points just for owning such a thing.
Both Matthew and Jacob had only been in it once since he'd bought it earlier
last year; it was definitely a treat for anyone to ride in it.

"All right, let me just pull this bad boy out and then you can hop inside," Bill
instructed.

Jacob was fortunate enough to overhear Nicolas and Kyle as they went on
excitedly about his father's car; they loved it and couldn't stop talking about
it while they waited to get in it. They carefully watched as Bill reversed out
of the garage and told everyone to get in. Kyle and Jacob got in first and took
their seats in the back, with Nicolas and Matthew following behind.

"Boys, boys, only three of you can sit back there, not all of you. One of you
will need to sit up front with me," Bill instructed.

"Dad, I'm sorry but we're all going to be sitting back here if you like it or
not, I really don't want to be separated from my er, uh ... boyfriend," Matthew
said, surprising himself that he'd actually called Nicolas his boyfriend for the
very first time, it was liberating.

Bill chuckled and realized that this wasn't a battle he was about to win, nor
one he wanted to fight over. "Okay well I guess there's no stopping you boys.
But at least do me this one small favor, Matthew and Nicolas if you could please
share the seat belt, safety first."

Kyle and Jacob peered over at Nicolas and Matthew as they tried to squish
themselves closer together, although the backseat was already as cramped as
could be. As an effect, Bill found these events hysterical seeing four boys, not
all of them small, trying to fit in the backseat of his car, which already had
limited space to begin with. Nicolas then carefully tugged the seatbelt over
them and Matthew elevated his butt so they could buckle it in, with both Jacob
and Kyle buckling their own belts in.

"I love you Nicolas," Matthew said out of nowhere, feeling extremely close to
his boyfriend right now, both physically and emotionally.

"I love you too Matthew," Nicolas said, prior to running his fingers over
Matthew's face and kissing him sensually.

Jacob looked over at Matthew and smiled. It made him feel good that his mother
hadn't had the chance to corrupt Matthew; in fact, he was dealing rather well
with her little rampage of disgust. Additionally, Jacob felt this warm sensation
start to fill him up inside, so he swiftly pulled Kyle closer to himself and let
his boyfriend rest his head upon his shoulder; he hoped that this would somehow
comfort Kyle, considering he wasn't sure how Kyle was holding up after what had
happened. All of the things she'd said were extremely hurtful, but Jacob thought
that she didn't understand how they all felt for one another.

Jacob hoped upon hope that his mother would learn and understand the feelings
they felt for their boyfriends, but then the question popped into his mind. `Is
hope going to be enough to find some sort of resolution to all of this?' but he
wasn't sure of that either way. Although Jacob didn't wish to dwell on these
things any longer, so he kissed Kyle on the forehead and whispered how much he
loved him into his ear. Kyle responded by turning his head towards Jacob and
kissed him on the lips, wrapped his hands around Jacob's body, and held him
tight in his grasp.

"Whoa boys where's the fire?" Bill asked, looking into his rearview mirror, but
when he received no reply from either boy, he simply started to back out of the
driveway and out onto the busy street.

"Sorry dad," Jacob said with a much-delayed response.

"Nah it's okay boys, but whatever you do don't set my backseats on fire as those
would be very expensive to replace," Bill said giving a chuckle.

"Oh ha-ha, you're so funny Dad," Jacob said, pretending to laugh.

"Yeah I am, aren't I? Well I hope your seatbelts are tightly fastened," Bill
said, placing his foot down onto the accelerator and putting it to the floor,
which propelled them down the street at high speeds.

`Man this car has some power to it,' Jacob thought as they were all forced back
into the leather seats from the G-forces that hit them.

"Wasn't that fun boys?" Bill asked, smiling, looking back in the rear view
mirror. He then eased his foot off the pedal and began slowing down to the speed
limit.

Jacob thought that his father was trying his best to get their minds off what
had happened back at the house, because after his little need for speed, they
were all giggling and enjoying the ride. Bill was even kind enough to let
Matthew plug in his iPod, which had him calling out specific songs for his dad
to put on.

Confide – Tell me I'm not alone; Three days grace – Riot; Demon hunter –
Undying; Boyce avenue – Every breath; Papa roach – Last resort; Owl city – On
the wing; The getaway plan – Vesper; Good charlotte – Emotionless.

By the time Matthew's song selections had finished playing, and everyone had all
but rocked out in the back seat, they had arrived at the mall. Bill quickly
pulled over in front of the entrance and placed the car into park. "Well you
boys go and have some fun. Give me a call when you're ready for me to come and
get you," Bill instructed. Everyone nodded and hopped out from the back seat.
They quickly thanked Bill for sticking up for them, and especially for giving
them all some money to hang out. "No problem boys, just go and have a little bit
of fun, and don't get into too much trouble." Bill smiled.

The boys left Bill and headed into the mall. The crowds were massive, being a
weekend there were hoards of people. "Holy shit, what is it seniors day or
something?" Jacob asked, looking around to see droves of old people driving
around in their motorized scooters. "I guess that's what we get for coming on a
Saturday." Jacob shrugged.

"Yeah for real," Kyle said.

"Man I'm starting to get really hungry, what time is it? Anyone got a watch?"
Jacob asked.

"I don't, but we could always head over to the food court, I know they have a
clock there," Kyle suggested quickly.

With their destination set, they started making their way towards the food
court, while window-shopping along the way. The mall was overly packed with
droves of people lining the halls; they had to fight their way to get towards
the food court. There was hardly any place to walk and this elderly woman in a
bright red scooter almost ran over Jacob. Eventually they reached the movie
theater entrance, which had a row of posters along the wall for the current
movies that were playing.

"Hey Jacob, Thor's out. Did you guys wanna go see that?" Matthew asked, excited
at the possibility of being at the movies, in the dark, eating popcorn, and most
of all, being with Nicolas.

"Sure that might be fun. We'll have to come back and get our tickets after we
eat. How does that sound?" Jacob asked, looking around at everyone.

They all nodded. "All right, well we're almost there, so let's just keep moving
gents," Jacob said, leading the way through the crowds of people that lined the
hallway.

After successfully navigating their way through the jungle of people, they
finally arrived at the food court. Jacob quickly found the clock that hung down
from the rafters and read the current time of twelve ten in the afternoon; it
was definitely time to eat.

"Well what are you guys up for eating?" Jacob asked, surveying around. "I see a
Chinese food, a sub shop, Pizza Hut, and a bunch of different burger joints."

"Pizza sounds good to me," Matthew said, and everyone else agreed.

"All right, Pizza Hut it is. But we're going to have to go outside to their
store for that," Jacob announced, making his way towards the doors to go to the
private restaurant that was out in the parking lot. Once outside, they saw a big
sign that said, `All you can eat pizza $6.00,' which brought excitement to them
all.

Jacob then opened the door and walked in with everyone else following closely
behind. "So where do you wanna sit Matthew?" Jacob asked, looking around for a
good spot.

"Well we could always go sit beside those cute boys over there," Matthew
suggested.

"Where do you see cute boys?" asked Nicolas and Kyle.

Matthew swiftly pointed off into the distance towards a table that was near the
back of the restaurant, where six boys were sitting in a booth. Jacob became
jealous instantly as everyone started gawking, and were in awe of the boys that
were there. `Am I not enough eye candy for Kyle?' Jacob thought, feeling deeply
concerned with Kyle's eyes looking at another boy; it made him feel sad and
unwanted, but even more so considering his mothers recent rampage.

Matthew began tugging on Jacob's t-shirt and dragged him towards the direction
of the other boys, but when Jacob finally gave in and started walking
voluntarily, Matthew let go of his brother. As they passed each booth, Jacob
reflected on how nice the booths were; they were navy blue with overstuffed
padding, which would provide a lot of cushion for their nice and plump baby
bumps. The booths were set in a half circle, with the table placed in the
center.

When they reached the table beside the boys, they picked out a spot and sat
themselves down, and once Matthew had finished making himself comfortable, he
stared at boys next to them. It appeared to Jacob that Matthew was staring at
the Japanese-looking boy, or whatever ethnicity he happened to be. Matthew's
mouth then dropped open, which made Jacob elbow his brother in the chest. "Dude,
stop staring at them," he said, trying to get Matthew to snap out of it.

 "Hello, my name is Janice and I'll be your waitress today. Can I start by
 getting you boys something to drink?" she asked, while grabbing for her pen to
 write down their order.

"Just four Cokes please," Jacob said, before returning his attention back to
Matthew, who was still gawking over at the Japanese boy next to them. "For
crying out loud Matthew, stop staring!"

Matthew hated being told what to do, especially when he was elbowed, thus his
response was to elbow Jacob back in the chest. "Shut up Jacob, let me have some
fun for crying out loud," Matthew said, rolling his eyes towards his brother.
Matthew then leaned over towards Nicolas and whispered into his ear. Jacob was
only able to catch a portion of what his brother was saying, but it was
something along the lines of, `Boy, theme park, Kinshi,' whatever that meant, as
it made no sense to Jacob.

"Nah it can't be them, not here in Naples. C'mon lets go get some slices of
pepperoni and cheese pizza before they're all gone," Nicolas said rather loudly,
before they got up from the table to grab some food.

Jacob couldn't deny it anymore; he couldn't stop himself from looking over at
the four boys who remained at the table next to them. Kyle was looking at them
as well, but when they heard one of the boys speak, they heard this thick
accent, which they thought sounded like it was Australian.

"Kyle I don't think those guys are from around here. Plus, I've never seen them
before either," Jacob said in a low voice.

"Yeah they must be tourists or something, but I don't even see an adult with
them," Kyle replied.

Meanwhile, Matthew and Nicolas were walking around the large buffet, grabbing
slices of pizza as they went along. However, since Matthew and Nicolas weren't
paying any attention to where they were walking; they accidently bumped into one
of the boys from the table next to theirs.

"Please go ahead, you were here first," said the Japanese boy.

Matthew gave a gracious smile back towards the two boys and went to grab a few
more slices that only had pepperoni on it, and a couple with ham and pineapple.
Once they had gotten what their stomachs desired, they casually started making
their way back towards their table. When they were about halfway back, Matthew
turned around and looked back at the Japanese boy and his blond haired friend.
He was quick to notice them talking to each other, which made him wish he could
somehow hear what they were saying. `I wonder if they're talking about us,'
thought Matthew, but that was just a dream in the back of his mind, or so he
finally concluded in his mind.

The more Matthew thought about the boys they had bumped into, the surer of
himself he got. `It's got to be Josh and Kinshi from the Golden Samurai, because
if it's not them, then they're good look-alikes,' he thought.

"Nicolas, it's got to them, I saw them up close at the buffet thingy. It's Josh
and Kinshi, here in Naples ... Oh my God," Matthew said in a low voice, trying
with all his might to contain his excitement while they walked back to their
table.

"Nicolas go ask them if they're from Orlando and have a theme park," Matthew
said quickly.

"No, you go. You're the one that seems to know them," Nicolas said.

Eventually Matthew and Nicolas made it back to their seats and started to dig
into their lunch. When the Japanese boy and his blond haired friend returned
with their own plates of food, Matthew stopped eating and watched them
carefully.

"What are the two of you doing? And why do you keep looking over at those boys
in the next booth?" Jacob asked.

"Um, I think we know those boys over beside us. They look a lot like the boys
from that commercial this morning, you know the new Japanese theme park that's
in Orlando. I think their names are Josh and Kinshi," Matthew grinned.

"So, do you have the hots for him? I bet Nicolas would get really jealous if you
tried to hit on him," Kyle whispered, before belting out laughing.

Matthew looked over at Kyle, gave the dirtiest look he muster, and tensed up his
hand into a fist before driving it into Kyle's shoulder for his snide comment.
Nicolas merely brushed off the comment, for he knew it was only a joke and went
on to comfort Matthew who seemed rather upset from Kyle's comment. Nicolas then
removed his hand from the table and placed it onto Matthew's thigh, and gave it
a gentle squeeze.

Meanwhile, back at the other booth one of the young boys was looking over at
Jacob, Kyle, Matthew and Nicolas, he seemed noticed that they kept looking over
at them from time to time and wondered what was actually going on at the table
next to theirs.

"Oh right, you were the one drooling all over those boys that came into our room
last night naked," they all heard come from the next table.

"Dude, do you think they're all gay like us?" Kyle asked in a low tone of voice.
However, after contemplating it for a few minutes, they watched as the Japanese
boy and his blond hair friend got up from their table. It appeared to them that
they were making their way towards the restrooms.

"Nicolas move quickly! I need to go pee badly. On second thought, why don't you
come with me just in case someone tries to snatch me," Matthew said giggling,
tugging Nicolas from out of the booth.

"Yeah right, who in their right mind would want to take such a nerdy kid such as
yourself? Or quite literally, want to have their way with you," Jacob said,
partly laughing, partly serious.

"Pshaw! I'm not nerdy now am I Nicolas?" Matthew asked as he got himself out of
the booth to walk towards the restroom.

Matthew left the table at a running pace, with Nicolas being dragged behind him.
Which effectively caused Jacob to belt out a loud resounding laugh, he couldn't
resist watching as his younger brother stormed into the boys washroom like he
was about to run away from a fire in a panic.

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

Matthew entered into the bathroom. He looked around quickly and spotted the two
boys already unzipped at the urinal. It was the two boys they had intentionally
followed in. "God what a jerk!" Matthew said. "He sure does get to me sometimes,
I swear he does it intentionally, I mean, it's almost like he loves getting
under my skin or something."

"Don't get too upset about it, just relax. After all, he's your big brother and
we all know brothers can be a real pain in the butt sometimes," Nicolas said in
a tone meant to calm.

Matthew decided he was going to stand beside the cute blond haired boy, whom he
believed could be Josh from the Golden Samurai. He then pulled out his boyhood
and started aiming it at Nicolas' pee stream, as for one reason or another they
shared the same urinal.

Nicolas and Matthew couldn't help as their eyes wandered off towards the two
boys that were on either side of them. It didn't take them long to realize that
they were being watched too. "Oh my God, they're looking back over at our
wieners too," Matthew thought.

"Oh hi guys," Matthew said rather nervously. "Uh, you're not from around here
are you?"

"Um, no we're from Orlando. We're just here on a mini vacation," said the blond
haired boy, his eyes locked onto Matthew's boyhood.

Meanwhile, Nicolas was looking over at the boy that was to his right, the
Japanese looking boy, and was having a hell of a time taking his eyes away from
his boyhood, it was uncut, and he thought it cute.

"Hey I think I've seen you before somewhere. My brother doesn't believe me, but
are you guys from the Golden Samurai?" Matthew asked, hoping he was right and
could rub it into Jacob's face.

"Yes we are, my brother here," said the blond haired boy, pointing over towards
the boy that was closest to Nicolas, "And most of the other boys that are at our
booth are my brothers as well. We all came here to relax and have a little bit
of fun, without any parents mind you."

"So that would mean that you're Josh and he's Kinshi?" Matthew asked excitedly.
This was something that was thrilling for him, meeting a celebrity, so to speak
or at least someone he'd seen on the television.

Josh smiled at Matthew. "Yes that's right, you got it all right."

"Oh boy, this is so great! I'm trying to win myself and my family passes on your
website, you know the one for building a Lego model? I wanna take my friend and
my brother to your park," Matthew said as fast as he could get his lips to say
it.

"Oh I see, well we wish you the best of luck as we would absolutely love for you
to win," Josh grinned, before flashing his wiener towards them.  He zipped up
his pants and waited for Kinshi to do the same.

Nicolas was in awe of Kinshi's uncut boyhood, he couldn't pull his eyes off it,
no matter how hard he tried not to look, but he just loved the way Kinshi's
foreskin hung over the tip of his boyhood, it was intoxicating. He took one last
gander before Kinshi managed to give his boyhood one final shake and return it
into his undies.

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

"Hey Jacob, Kyle, listen those boys are from Orlando, they said they own the
Golden Samurai and even said that they hope we win the Lego competition,"
Matthew beamed towards Jacob, feeling proud of himself that he was right all
along.

"You sure are acting weird today Matthew, they're just boys, you know just like
us," Jacob remarked nonchalantly, not giving much thought that Matthew might
have been right, but it didn't matter now, it was cool and all, but not as cool
as Matthew perceived it to be.

"I just think he's saying he likes the boys and wants to be friends with them,"
Kyle guessed, shrugging his shoulders.

"No it's not that at all, I just wanted to be able to win a family ticket pass
to take you and Nicolas and maybe even Kyle to the theme park," Matthew
grumbled.

"Really ... sorry bro, I was only kidding with you. I'm really sorry if I hurt
your feelings Matthew," Jacob said, feeling like an ass. "But anyway, have you
all had enough to eat?"

"Yup, I'm good – tummy's full," Kyle said; Matthew and Nicolas nodded.

"All right, well let's go pay for our lunch and then we can go get our movie
tickets," Jacob said, getting up from his seat and letting everyone out of the
booth to start heading towards the front cashier.

When they reached the front cashier, they saw the boys from the next booth
paying for their food. They watched as one of the older looking boys pulled out
his gold MasterCard, which greatly surprised Jacob beyond belief and made their
mouths drop open. Jacob surely had his doubts before, but now he believed
Matthew without a shadow of a doubt, Matthew had been telling the truth all
along; he could have kicked himself, well if he physically could.

"Told you!" Matthew said in a snarky tone.

Jacob felt like a complete jerk. If he'd only listened the first time, things
might have ended up differently. "I'm sorry I didn't believe you the beginning
Matthew. And I do really mean that." Matthew breathed a long sigh; this had been
the first time in his entire existence that Jacob had admitted himself wrong.

When they had finished paying for their food, they made their way back into the
mall to purchase their movie tickets. Matthew was excited about seeing this
movie; it was new and had just come into the theaters. Everyone could see just
how excited Matthew was by looking at his face, he was overjoyed and extremely
annoying as he kept going on and on about this movie, that eventually Jacob told
him to shut his trap.

With their tickets in hand, they got themselves in line for some concessions,
popcorn and soda. Jacob hadn't been in line more than thirty seconds when
someone approached him from behind; he quickly turned around, and realized it
was one of the boys from the table beside them in Pizza Hut.

"Hey sorry to bother you, but what movie are you going to see?" asked the boy.

"We're going to see Thor, how about you?"

"Same. We can save you a seat if you want. Well that's if you want to sit with
us."

"Sure that might be fun," Kyle piped up, who was interested in the prospect of
joining them and maybe making some new friends.

"Okay, we'll see you in there then," said the boy, turning around and walking
back to his troop of friends.

"Anyway, so did you guys just wanna get popcorn and soda, or did you guys want
something else?" Jacob asked.

"I definitely want something to snack on. Popcorn would be good," Kyle replied
quickly.

"Yeah I want some too!" Matthew said and Nicolas in unison. Jacob noticed this
quickly; it was like him and Kyle earlier.

After five minutes of waiting in the concessions line, they got themselves some
popcorn and a large pop to wash it all down. Kyle also got Swedish berries,
which he loved, or so he said he did, but it was Jacob's favorite too.

"All right are we all ready?" Jacob asked once everyone had everything.

"Yeah, let's go find those boys," Kyle said, smirking.

After presenting their ticket stubs to the attendant guarding the entryway, they
entered into theater number three. The lights were already dimmed, showing
commercials on the big screen with the occasional trivia question for the movies
coming, going and past. This meant that the show hadn't started yet, which
brought a big sigh of relief to Matthew, as he didn't want to end up missing
even a second of the movie. Even though the theater was dim, the boys could
still see to some extent. Jacob quickly noticed that the theater was almost
empty and could see one of the boys waving down at them from the back row.

They walked up the steps towards their new friends. Jacob ended up sitting by
one of the older boys; Kyle sat beside Jacob; and Nicolas and Matthew sat beside
Kyle. Once they got themselves situated in their seats, Jacob rested his hand on
Kyle's inner thigh, although what he actually wanted to do was make out with
Kyle, he just wasn't sure if Kyle would be up for that yet. He also took into
consideration what they were forced to go through today at the house, maybe it
was too soon for that to happen, especially since he wasn't even sure the boys
they now sat with were gay themselves. All of these things considered, he felt
it would be a bad choice to freak out their new friends by some flamboyant
showing of affection. On the other hand, he didn't think they looked or acted
gay or flamboyant, but who was to know how they'd come across to others.

Jacob finally concluded that the best course of action was to move his hand,
just in case. As a result, his and Kyle's hands slid down in between the seats
and hid them from plain sight. Jacob's eyes then began to wander off towards the
other boys, especially the blond haired boy, whom he thought Matthew referred to
as Josh and the Japanese boy who might have been Kinshi. He was quick to notice
that they were holding hands in plain view. `Hmm, that's interesting ...' he
thought, and quickly pulled Kyle's hand onto his lap and held it tight.

It didn't take long for Matthew to see this very open, outward act of affection,
between his brother and Kyle. Matthew took this as some sort of hint, because
immediately he grabbed for Nicolas' hand and placed it in his own. The rest of
the boy's were more interested with the movie or preoccupied eating popcorn, to
pay any attention to them.

The movie was shaping up to be something of interest for Jacob and he thought
that it wasn't all too bad, considering Matthew had chosen it. However, midway
through Jacob got distracted when the sound of clothes shuffling drew his
attention and he looked over to discover two of the older boys kissing.
`They've got to be gay, they just have to be,' he thought instantly, as he
watched this very open showing of affection from these unknown boys.

The scene playing out in front of his eyes made him horny and it wasn't long
after that he gave into his impulses. He quickly released Kyle's hand from his
own, moved it over towards Kyle's groin, and gave Kyle's boyhood a firm squeeze
with his fingers. Then something unexpected happened when Kyle's body went
airborne and he flew out from his seat.

"Holy mother of God Jacob, you almost made me spill my drink," Kyle said,
carefully trying to balance his drink.

"Sorry," Jacob said giggling. "I guess I wasn't thinking."

"Later on my love, just not right here, right now. I sure as hell don't want to
cum in my pants," Kyle said after finding a lump in Jacob's pants. He gave it a
quick groping and then returned his attention back to the movie.

The movie ended not long after, although that wasn't such a bad thing either.
Jacob's butt had gotten quite sore in these seats; they looked rather old, the
cushions worn and beat down, with faded colors. However, he wasn't the only one
that was happy about the movie being over, because Kinshi let out shriek when
the lights had finally come back on, he was excited, and he couldn't stop
smiling over at Josh.

"Man that movie was so freaking cool! I'm so glad that you were here to see it
with me Nicolas," Matthew said excitedly.

"Yeah it wasn't too bad," Jacob said. "But hey, you'd better get out of my way;
I really need to go drain the snake." Jacob quickly got up from his seat and
headed towards the stairs to exit the theater.

"Yeah me too!" announced Kyle.

However, they weren't the only ones who needed to take a leak, because the rest
of the boys then followed Jacob and Kyle into the boy's washroom to flush out
all of the cokes they seemed to have drunk during the film. When everyone had
finished peeing, one of the older looking boys beckoned towards Jacob. "Hey
would you guys be interested in getting some ice cream?" he asked.

"Sure that would be good," Jacob said. They all quickly washed their hands and
walked out of the theater to head towards the ice cream parlor.

All of the boys were in the mood for the same type of ice cream as they ordered
chocolate fudge sundaes one after another. After Matthew and Nicolas had
received theirs, they became more interested by their newfound friends and began
walking over towards the boy named Josh.

"So um, where are you guys staying in Naples? I'm just, er, curious," Matthew
asked.

"Uh gee, well just as long as you promise you're not going to tell anyone,
because we really want to keep it kinda private, but we're staying at the –– oh
boy, at the gay nudist lodge just outside of town," Josh said gasping. Both
Matthew and Nicolas couldn't believe what they had just heard.

"Wow, that place is packed with nude boys, at least that's what I've heard. But
we drive pass that place often – it's just by our house and it's only about a
ten minute bike ride from there," Matthew giggled.

Matthew's eye lit up like a Christmas tree; he knew of the place they were
speaking of, but obviously, they were never allowed inside. Deep down Matthew
hoped at the possibility of having a real chance to see what really happened
inside of those tall secluded gates of this so called camp, and maybe they would
end up having a little bit of fun too. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, he
desired to be able to hang with these boys some more, especially at this camp.

"Hey let's go tell Jacob about this camp. Is that okay with you Josh?" Matthew
asked, hoping that he would say that it was okay.

"Sure you can, it's okay to tell him," Josh said with a big smirk across his
face.

Once everyone else had gotten their sundaes, they went towards Jacob and Kyle
who were sitting at an empty table by themselves. "Hi my name's Craig and your
brother kind of thinks we should become friends."

"Oh, well, hello Craig, it's nice to meet you. I'm Jacob and this is my friend
Kyle."

"Cool! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know it's been a lot of fun hanging with
you guys, I would really like to be able to see you again. So um, has anyone
told you where we're staying yet?" Craig grinned.

Without giving Craig the chance to speak further, Matthew piped up and started
telling Jacob and Kyle that the boys were staying at the gay nudist lodge down
the road from their house. When Jacob heard these words, his brain went into
instant overload, deep down he always wanted to see what was behind those tall
walls, which had always hindered his ability to see. Although he never knew what
was truly behind those walls, but now he knew it was a camp. `Maybe they'll
invite us,' he thought, hoping that they might consider offering an invite.
However, had he known what this might imply, he might have given it a second
thought.

Just then, another boy approached the table. "Hi, I'm Harry. Did you guys maybe
wanna come and chill with us again tomorrow?" he asked.

"Of course we would Harry," Jacob said gladly. "But we'll need to speak with our
folks first, after all, we surely wouldn't want to get into too much trouble.
But I think my dad will probably say yes. Er, well as long as we tell him that
we're going to be hanging out with the boys from the theme park commercial."

"Okay, well here's our cabin number and our phone number for the cabin. Just be
sure to let us know if you're allowed to come and visit us, and please make sure
you tell your parents that you don't have to be naked in order to come and see
us, but you'll have fun – trust me," Craig said, informing them that it wasn't a
required thing to be nude.

"Hey do you think that I could ask you all a question?" asked Josh. "Are you all
um, gay?"

"Well that would depend on who's asking I suppose," Jacob said jokingly, looking
over towards his troop of boys.

"Yes, we're all gay!" they all yelled out in one voice.

Jacob could see the other group of boys smiling blindly towards them; it was
different, being looked at like that, it was a bit unnerving. He wasn't sure he
liked being looked at like some piece of fresh meat. `What the hell is going on
in their heads,' he thought.

"Well I guess we'll talk to you a bit later then," Jacob said.

"Yeah I think we better get going too," Josh said.

"Well if this is the last time we ever get to see you," Jacob said, pulling Kyle
closer to his body and planting a kiss onto his lips for all to see. He didn't
care anymore after what had happened today, he couldn't be asked to be secretive
anymore.

"That's some preview," Josh said, before he too, leaned in to kiss his boyfriend
Kinshi.

"Okay this isn't some sort of kissing contest," one of the boys said bitterly.

"All right, well goodbye boys have a good day," Jacob said, walking away. After
walking for a bit in no particular direction, Jacob stopped. "So what do you
guys want to do now?"

"I don't know. But we could always just walk around the mall and do some window
shopping I guess?" Matthew suggested.

They ended up walking throughout the entire mall, but nothing seemed to be of
interest for them currently. Sure they got to have some fun, get their minds
cleared for a few hours, meet some cute boys, and even got to see a movie, but
the memories of what had transpired sucked the joy right out from under them.
Without a word, Jacob made his way towards the payphone to call his father to
come and pick them up.

They stood around, waiting, not saying a word to one another while they waited
for Bill to arrive; for they were deep in thought, contemplating the events of
things gone past. For Matthew and Jacob it had been their mother's reaction to
them being gay. For Kyle it had been all of the rejection from his past, the
physical beatings he'd received at the hands of young mindless boys who were
afraid of the unknown. For Nicolas, it had been the fear of his mother finding
out that he was gay, he also wondered if her reaction would be the same as
Sarah's, which scared him deeply, but he supposed only time would tell the
answer to that. Twenty minutes later Bill pulled up and they all hopped into the
back seat.

"So did you boys have a good time?" Bill asked, but the only reply he received
was a quick nod from each boy. This was curious to Bill. "Why such the long
faces boys?"

"I'm just kind of thinking about what mom said.  Do you really think that we're
defective Dad?" Jacob asked.

"Yeah, do you think we are daddy?" Matthew asked.

This question made Kyle and Nicolas' heart skip a beat, they had wondered about
this themselves. Yes, it had been deeply hurtful when she said it, but was there
any truth to it? None of them could bear to hear the answer that Bill was about
to present, they felt shameful, like what they were feeling was somehow wrong
and dirty. Their eyes dropped to the floor as they waited for Bill's answer.

"FUCK!" screamed Bill at the top of his lungs, swerving the car off to the side
of the road. Bill turned around in his seat and looked at the boys, his tone
quickly changed to anger. "Okay boy's I need for you to listen to my words
carefully. What your mother said is complete bullshit. No, you're not fucking
defective – you're exactly the way God made you and intended you to be. I swear
I could have killed her when she spoke those words, metaphorically speaking. But
what she said was totally unacceptable and I'm sorry that she can't learn to
accept it." Bill paused and attempted to calm himself down. "And to be honest
with you, I'd truly hate to see something bad happen before she finally wakes up
to observe what's right in front of her."

Bill then changed his gaze away from his sons. "Nicolas, Kyle, do your parents
know about you being gay?"

"My mom does," Kyle said plainly. "But I don't think she knows about me dating
Jacob just yet."

"No my mother knows nothing about that sort of thing," Nicolas said, still
unprepared to look Bill in the eyes.

"Okay, well I just wanted to let you know that you're both a part of our family
now. So if you need anything, please don't be afraid to ask or talk to me. I'll
be here for you no matter what, just as I am with my very own boys. As for you
Nicolas, whenever you feel ready to tell your mother just let me know and I'll
come with you if that's what you want. I love you all and accept you just as you
are," Bill said, with the anger quickly leaving him and compassion filling his
every word.

Kyle started crying into Jacob's shoulder, something about Bill's words sent him
into an emotional overload of tears; it broke him to pieces. Jacob felt sad for
his beloved because he knew the pain he'd felt from his father abandoning him
and his mother, but more so, the abuses that he was at the receiving end of.

Jacob looked deep into Kyle's eyes and could see the pain as it rolled out in
tears across his cute, petit face. He quickly pulled Kyle closer to himself and
tried to comfort him. Jacob placed his hand under Kyle's eyes and tried to wipe
away every tear that attempted to roll down his face. "Kyle I love you so much,"
he said with a smile.

However, Jacob couldn't break through as Kyle continued to cry, tears falling
one after another, there was no stopping the pain and deep hurt that tormented
him; the scars were deep and tore him apart from the inside. Jacob continued
trying to wipe away the tears that fell, but he was failing miserably at
stopping Kyle from shedding those tears of pain. Eventually he came to the point
that he wasn't sure what to do anymore and sought the advice of his father by
mouthing, "What should I do?"

"Kyle, look at me please," Bill requested.

Kyle looked up, eyes filled with tears, cheeks red from where Jacob had been
furiously wiping Kyle's tears. Kyle was a mess.

"Kyle, I love you and accept you as my own son," Bill said, knowing full well
the repercussions of his words.

Those words made Kyle cry even harder. Although, it was a release from the
things that had never been said to him; ultimately, this was good for him, it
gave him the chance to get these things out so they couldn't eat him alive
anymore.

Jacob watched Kyle closely as each tear was a sign of him releasing the pain.
After ten minutes or so, Kyle settled down and his chest began to heave in and
out. Jacob had made sure during this whole time not to miss any tears; he took
pride in what he'd accomplished with that.

"Are you going to be okay now baby?" Jacob asked, holding tight onto his
beloved.

"Yeah I think I'll be fine. Sorry about that."

"There's no need to be sorry," Jacob said, with everyone else nodding in
agreement.

Kyle leaned up against Jacob's broad shoulder. Jacob was doing his best to
comfort Kyle; he did this by placing the back of his left hand over Kyle's cheek
and began gently rubbing up and down over his beloved's silky smooth skin.
Whereas, his right hand was placed onto Kyle's back, where he began massaging
his tensed up muscles. In the inner reaches of Jacob's heart, he hoped that his
efforts weren't in vain, but in effect were bringing some sort of peace and
comfort to his lover's aching heart.

Kyle raised his eyes up from the floor and looked deep into Jacob's eyes, which
made Jacob overwhelmed with raw emotion for the one he loved. Jacob loved Kyle
with every essence of his being that he forced his hand to slip up into Kyle's
hair where he began brushing it in between his fingers. This was the moment he'd
dreamed about, although it didn't include having Kyle vulnerable like this; but
to have him in his arms, brushing his hair, being close in this intimate
fashion, physically and emotionally. Especially to share in this special moment
that was being reciprocated back to him, knowing that he was loved just as he
loved him, this was his heart's desire, him and Kyle forever, together, without
ceasing. Jacob knew that Kyle loved him, he could see it in his majestic blue
eyes, every bit of Kyle showed him everything he needed to see and know; words
weren't necessary for him to see the obvious.

Jacob was consumed by Kyle's ferocious gaze the more he stared deep into his
beloved's eyes. Eventually his right arm began gliding up Kyle's back until he
reached Kyle's chin, he gripped it firmly and lifted it slowly upwards to his
own, and right there, they kissed passionately right in front of Bill.

Bill watched as his eldest son showed more love and affection than he'd ever
seen in his entire life. In that moment, he wished Sarah could have been here to
see this; the bond they shared was nothing like he'd ever seen, maybe this would
have shown his wife that this was indeed real and genuine.

"Whoa dad, your backseats are on fire," Matthew giggled.

"Shut up," Kyle said playfully, cracking a smile.

"Ha! Ha! You're so funny Matthew," Jacob said, sticking out his tongue.

"Well it looks like the fire's out now, so let's get home then shall we?" Bill
said, returning his foot onto the accelerator and pulling out from the side of
the road.

"Hey Dad, guess what," Jacob said in a rushed tone. "We met these boys today at
the mall. They're the co-owners of this new theme park in Orlando. Anyway, they
kind of invited us to go to that, um, gay nudist club near our house ... and I,
er, we were kinda wondering if we could––"

"Go? Let me take a wild guess here and say that these boys are gay too. Am I
right?" Bill asked.

"Uh, yeah ... so will you let us go? Please ..." Matthew asked.

"Well I don't really see a problem with that, I suppose, it wouldn't hurt to
have a little fun," Bill said with a huge cheeky grin on his face.

"Yeah it would definitely be cool! They even told us that we didn't have to get
naked if we didn't want to," Matthew said.

"All right you can go. However, I have a few questions. One: when will you be
going? Two: will I ever see you again after I drop you off?" Bill asked with a
chuckle in his voice.

"We would like to go tomorrow. And I don't know Dad, maybe we'll never return,"
Jacob said giggling, with the rest of the boys joining in on the laugh.

"Just don't go telling your mother, you hear?" Bill said as they pulled into the
driveway.

"Deal!" they all said at the same time.

By the time they had walked into the house, Sarah was nowhere in sight. The
house seemed eerily quiet, more so than when Jacob had come home to wait for
Kyle. `Maybe she's upstairs in her room,' Jacob thought. He quickly put his
mother in the back of his mind and went to make a phone call to their new friend
Josh.

`Please leave a quick message after the beep. **BEEP**'

"Hey Josh, it's Jacob from the mall. My father said we're allowed to come to the
camp tomorrow. I think we'll probably want to come as early as we can. So, I'll
get my dad to drive us out there once he's dressed and the likes. We're all
really looking forward to hanging out with you guys tomorrow, especially
Matthew; he really seems to have become attached to you. Just please remember to
say something to someone so that we're able to get inside... Okay By...e, oh, and
if you want to give me a call back, my phone number is 555-5569. Okay thanks,
bye."

Jacob placed the cordless phone back onto the docking station and turned around
to face Kyle, Matthew and Nicolas, and found them sitting down at the kitchen
table. "I got their answering machine for their cabin, so hopefully they'll get
it soon," Jacob informed everyone.

"And I'm not attached to them," Matthew said. "Really I'm not!"

"Uh huh!" Jacob said, rolling his eyes. "You're star struck is what you are."

Bill gave a look towards Jacob, implying to shut his mouth. "So Nicolas did you
want to call home and ask if you're able to spend the night?"

"Really? That would be so cool!"

"Sure why not?"

Nicolas didn't waste any time. He quickly walked over to the phone, removed it
from the docking station, and called home to get permission. His words were few.
"Hello mom? Can I spend the night at my friend Matthew's house? ... Okay thanks
mom, love you, bye." After hanging up the phone and returning it from where he
got it, he nodded to everyone that he was allowed to stay. Matthew quickly ran
towards him and jumped up and down excitedly.

Kyle also made a call home to find out if it would be okay to spend another
night, which ended up with him being allowed. Everything was now in place;
everyone was going to be spending the night and would all get up to eat
breakfast together before heading off towards the camp. This made things easy
for Bill who wouldn't need to drive all around town to pick everyone up.

"So what do you guys wanna do now? You wanna play some video games?" Jacob
asked.

"Sure that sounds like fun," Kyle said.

With the decision made, they casually went upstairs and into Jacob's room.
Matthew ended up sitting on his brother's bed, with Nicolas sitting down beside
him, while Kyle sat down on the floor beside Jacob. They played a few different
games, although mostly Modern warfare, until Jacob's father came knocking and
announced that dinner was ready.

Jacob didn't hesitate in turning off the Xbox as his tummy was already rumbling
quite a bit, but he wasn't the only one as he heard everyone else's rumbling at
some point. By the time they made it into the kitchen, they found a full course
meal set out on the table waiting for them. There was roast beef, mashed
potatoes, carrots, and peas. The smell and sight of the food made their mouths
water, they couldn't help it, and without wasting any more time they quickly
dashed for the table and took a seat.

When everyone had taken their seats, Bill spoke up before anyone could have the
chance to start helping themselves to the meal he'd worked so hard to prepare.
"Boy's, I wanna do something a little different tonight before we all dig in."

"And what would that be dad?" Matthew asked.

"I want for us to pray," Bill said.

"Why? We've never done that before," Jacob protested.

"Please just humor your old man for a moment and close your eyes," Bill said.

Jacob looked over at Kyle and shrugged his shoulders in protest, he was hoping
that Kyle would agree with him, but rather it was Kyle who forced his hand and
urged Jacob to comply with his father's humble request. Jacob sighed and closed
his eyes in defeat, with Kyle closing his after everyone else had.

"Dear God, I'm sorry that I've never taken the time to see the beauty within my
boys. I pray and ask that you to give them the strength they need to overcome
whatever obstacles come in front of them. I pray that you will comfort their
hearts, heal old wounds, and renew their body, mind, and soul. But especially
that you heal their hearts of any pain or words that have been spoken against
them. I thank you for the food that we are about to eat as well and may it be
nourishment for our bodies. Thank you, Amen."

"Well that was rather ... uh different dad. Thank you, though," Jacob said,
reaching out for the roast.

By the time they had finished eating they were stuffed, considering everyone had
taken second helpings. After the dishes had been placed into the sink and rinsed
off, they went to watch some television before going off to bed. However, after
an hour or two Bill beckoned towards the boys when he noticed they were all
falling asleep. "Boys I think it's time for you to head up to bed, you're all
falling asleep," he said.

The boys didn't disagree or make a fuss; they merely got up and started making
their way up to their respective bedrooms. Even though the day ended on a high
note, it still wasn't enough to blanket over what had happened earlier. Thus,
they got themselves into bed, gave their respective boyfriends a goodnight kiss
and fell asleep.

Authors notes:

Well that will conclude chapter #5. I would like to thank "Boys in the hood" for
agreeing about our boys meeting. It will definitely be a fun experience for the
boys as they come out and adjust to their newfound boyfriends. It's been
somewhat difficult for me to express the love these boys share. It's an
emotional journey for me as much as it is for you (Or so I'm guessing). I have
again left much foreshadowing in this chapter. If you can figure it out let me
know :)

I have also left an Easter egg within the story. It's up to you to find it, if
you really wanted to for fun that is. (Hint you may want to look at the song
selections of Matthew. Look for any differences in wording or spelling or. :])

Bill saw that the boys had _______________. (What is the word?)
