			       MATT and MIKE

			      Chapter Thirty

Rick told Merriam about what he had found, but none of the details like he
had promised. He got out the Yellow pages, and started calling hotels. He
found Joe registered at the Marriott at the airport.

Merriam, I want to take the boys over to Troy and Pat's house. Matt and
Mike are over there now. I can fill them in, and they will take care of
Brad while we talk to Joe. I don't want Brad over here when Joe comes
over. I don't want him to know I am here until he gets here. All right with
you?", Rick asked.

"That is fine. Whatever you think.", she replied.

"I also want to call Zack. I want him here when Joe comes over. There could
be trouble, and I might need Zack to keep me from going to jail from
killing him.", Rick added, with fire in his eyes.

Rick did take Brad and Sam over to Troy and Pat's house, and filled in Matt
and Mike. They all had a big discussion about what had happened. Brad broke
down and told all of them what his Dad had been doing to him for the past
two years. Pat held him as he cried. Everyone drew lots closer to the boy
they had just met. Especially, Seth.

Since Brad had shared so much of himself, everyone felt like they should
also share with him.  Matt and Mike were first to tell Brad that they were
gay, and in love with each other. Seth told him next that he was also gay,
but he hadn't found the right partner yet.

Sam and Jerry just looked at each other, before they nodded their heads in
agreement. They came out and told everyone that they were also gay, and in
love with each other. This was the first time that they had ever admitted
it to anyone else, even though everyone, including Troy and Pat, had
already guessed. They just seemed too close for just being
friends. Everyone hugged them for having the courage to some out, including
Brad. This had helped. Brad was now feeling better about himself.

When Rick got back to Merriam's house, Zack had already got there. Rick
made him move his car out of the driveway to down the street, where Rick
had parked. Rick filled Zack in on all the shitty details as Merriam called
Joe and convinced him to come over. Now, both Rick and Zack were ready to
kill Joe.

When Joe finally arrived, Rick and Zack stayed in the kitchen until he
walked in. "Merriam, I am glad you have finally come to your senses. You
should know I would never do anything like that to Brad. I love him too
much to do that.", Joe said, sitting down on the couch.

Rick couldn't control himself. He ran into the living room, startling Joe,
and picked him up by the shirt collar. "My name is Rick, and I am Merriam
and Sam's friend. I help them out when they need someone to talk to. Brad
told me and Sam the whole story. From the start, when you first found him
learning to masturbate in bed. I also looked at his anus, and it looks like
he has permanent damage. A doctor will be able to tell in seconds. I just
wanted to see your face when I told you that we are going to get you locked
up for many, many years. Then, you may find out just what kind of pain you
have been putting your son through all this time. The boys in prison don't
use lubricant at all, so you may find out that you feel even more pain than
Brad felt.", Rick yelled.

Joe had gone deathly white at the mention of prison. "No, please don't tell
anyone. I won't ever touch him again. I swear.", he said quickly.

"Oh, you are right about that. You will never touch him again. I will give
you one chance. If you agree to sign over custody of Brad to Merriam and
never come back here again, we may let you go. She is to receive a check
for $500.00 per month for child support until he finishes college.  And,
you have to sign a document stating that you will never set foot in this
city again. Do you understand? Otherwise, I will not rest until I see you
put behind bars where you belong.", Rick yelled.

"OK, I'll do it. I have been offered a promotion where I work, but I would
have to move to France. I will take it, and leave the country. Just don't
call the police. Please.", Joe begged.

They didn't call the police. Joe stayed until all the legal documents were
signed and Brad was officially turned over to Merriam. Then, he took the
first plane he could back to his home. None of them ever heard from him
again.

After Joe had left to contact a lawyer about the necessary paperwork, Rick
called to check on Brad, and talked to Mike.

"He is doing better, Rick. He broke down and told us all about it. I think
he needs to be away from his mother tonight. He just can't stand to face
her right now. He just needs a little space and time to get his head back
together. Troy and Pat think it is a good idea to let him spend the night
here. Matt and I do, too. Ask her if it is all right, OK?", Mike asked.

Rick did, and Merriam reluctantly agreed. She really needed her two sons
home with her right now, but she realized that Brad had just gone through a
traumatic experience and might need to be around boys his own age right
now. Rick and Zack promised to go over and stay with him, too. Rick
convinced her that he would bring both boys back in the morning.

Rick and Zack went over and stayed with Brad for the rest of the
evening. When it was starting to get late, Troy and Pat even convinced
everyone to spend the night. They had plenty of room, so everyone
accepted. Everyone would just get up earlier than normal in the morning and
go back home to shave, shower, and change clothes before going to work. It
was worth it to be there for Brad tonight. Troy and Pat were beginning to
become parental figures for all the boys, and nobody complained. They were
all in need of a little extra attention.

"Brad, you can stay with me in my room if you want. I would really like
that.", Seth said.

"Are you sure? After all I have told you? I can just spend the night on the
couch, if you want.", Brad said.

"No, I don't want you to do that. Are you comfortable in sleeping with me,
since I am gay? If you are not, I will understand. I won't make a move on
you, I promise.", Seth said honestly.

"After all I have been through, you being gay is the least of my
worries. OK, if you don't care, I don't either. Let's go to bed. This has
been a really long day, and I am tired.", Brad said.

Everyone said goodnight, and headed to their bedrooms.

Once Seth and Brad were in their room, Seth shut the door and turned to
Brad. "Brad, I know you have had an awful day. But, I have to know. Can I
ask you a really personal question?", Seth asked.

Brad just chuckled to himself. "After all I have told you today, you think
you might hurt my feelings by asking me something personal? I don't think
so. Sure, go ahead.", Brad answered.

"OK. This will be hard for me. Look, I really like you. I have never felt
this way about anybody before. Before we go to bed, I just want to know if
you are gay or not?", Seth asked, blushing fiercely.

Brad had thought that nothing could faze him after everything that had
happened today, but that question almost knocked him off his feet. "I.....I
don't know.", he stammered, also blushing.

Seth took a big breath and took the biggest chance of his life. "I just
need to know if there is a chance for me to be in your life. I don't know
how it happened, but I fell in love with you when I heard how much pain you
were in. It isn't pity. I really fell in love with you. I would really like
us to make love together so I can show you the difference between love and
rape. There is nothing in common between the two. I want you to love me
back. I just need to know if I have just embarrassed myself the most I have
ever done, or if there is a chance for us to be together like Matt and
Mike.", Seth said, and blushed almost purple.

Brad felt his mouth fall open. Seth loved him? Anyone loved him? Really
loved him? He was shocked so much, that he was speechless.

Seth could look at Brad's face and tell he was disgusted with what he had
told him. Tears started to form in the corners of his eyes. He knew he had
gone too far, too fast. "I'm sorry. I had no right to say all of that after
all you have been through today. I am just going to go downstairs and sleep
down there. I can get a pillow and covers from the hall closet and you can
stay in my room.  I am sorry I said that. I hope you don't hate me.", Seth
said, and headed for the door.

Brad snapped out of his daze, and reacted. He grabbed Seth, and stopped him
from leaving.  "Look, I don't hate you. You just shocked me, that's all. I
really like you, too, but I sure don't know if I love you yet. I don't know
if I can really love anyone, any more.", he said, also starting to shed
tears.

Seth was relieved to at least know that Seth didn't hate him. He pulled
Brad to him, and hugged him hard. "I'm sorry. I just told you too much at
one time. I shouldn't have done that."

"No, I am glad you did.", Brad said, hugging back. "I just don't know how I
feel anymore. It has been a long time since I felt anyone really loved me."

"Can you let me try? I don't know what it is, but I just feel we need to be
together. You can help me get over my insecurity and come out of my
shell. I can help you get over all the hurting you have inside. It is
almost like we need each other. I'm not expecting you to love me back right
away. I just want you to give me a chance. I will earn your love, if you
will just give me a chance.  Please!", Seth said, crying onto Brad's
shoulder.

"I'll try. I can't make you any promises. I have been hurt too much to
trust anyone overnight.  But, I am willing to try.", Brad answered.

Seth pulled back from Brad, making Brad look him in the eye. He leaned in
and kissed him softly on the mouth. Brad gasped, but did not pull
away. Seth got more confident, and kissed him harder. Brad responded like
he never thought he would be able to do. Their kiss lasted what seemed like
hours, until they were both gasping for breath. The electricity running
through their bodies was like they were both plugged into a socket
somewhere.

They both just stared at each other in awe. Then, a smile came over each of
their faces, and they held each other tighter, as they kissed once more.

They finally made their way to the bed, and clothes seemed to start
disappearing.

"Look, Seth. Dad has made me really loose back there. I don't know if you
will really get any enjoyment out of making love to me or not. I don't
think I will be tight at all.", Brad said, with a worried look on his face.

"Don't worry about that lover. I think I might have a surprise for you.",
Seth said, pulling down his underwear confidently.

Brad looked, and lost his insecurities immediately. He just smiled at Seth,
who smiled back. They were made for each other.

Brad finally found out that slow love making can really feel wonderful. As
long as the partner also wants the other person to feel good, love making
can be great.

He also found out what it would feel like to be on the other end of love
making. He certainly hadn't had that opportunity with his Dad.

Brad's Dad moved to France with his company. No one knows what happened to
him.

Seth and Brad fell madly in love. They really felt like they needed each
other after that night, and rarely spent more than one night apart. Troy
and Pat were supportive, as was Merriam. They both shared both homes, as
did Sam and Jerry. Wherever one couple would spend the night, the other
also spent the night. Both sets of brothers loved each other more and more,
as they did each other's husbands.

This one day had Brad telling everyone about his Dad's abuse. His Dad being
forced to give up custody of him to his mother. Sam and Jerry coming out of
the closet. Seth and Brad falling in love. What could make the day better?
Would this be a start for good things finally to start happening?

No way!

Someone really should have stayed with Merriam that day. She got more and
more depressed about allowing her bastard husband to ever take Brad away in
the first place. She blamed herself for what had happened to Brad, even
though it started almost ten years after their divorce. She drove to an
instant teller and took out way too much cash. She really couldn't afford
how much she was taking out. She went to her regular distributer for her
drug habit, and bought the biggest purchase of cocaine in her life. She
went on the biggest binge of her life. Nothing else seemed to matter.

     To Be Continued

Any reader's comments or criticisms are appreciated. The more comments I
get, the quicker I will forward more chapters. Again, I am trying to tell
the story using actual facts, but I do insert parts of the story that did
not really happen. The boys always give me permission, before I submit my
version. I hope you like this method of telling a story. Any comments can
be sent to fsw99@mindspring.com. The only gratification I really get out of
writing is your comments. I have made good friends out of Matt and Mark,
and could use some more.
