Chapter 24
Alexander was rather nervous when the time came for him to leave to go to Bradley's home for Sunday lunch. He had only met Bradley's parents the once and although they had shown him nothing but kindness he was still uncertain as to what he would find when he had to sit down with them for a meal without having Callum to support him. At the same time he was rather excited as it meant he would be with his boyfriend and this could almost be classed as their first date. Alexander said good bye to his parents in their lounge and met Callum at the foot of the stairs on his way to the front door. Callum immediately noticed Alexander's nervousness and put his arm around his shoulders in a brotherly hug.
"It'll be fine. Don't worry. Brad's folks are good people and they support their son and have already accepted you." Callum tried to comfort Alexander.
"I know but it still feels a bit strange. I don't really know them." Alexander replied.
"Just be yourself and they'll love you by the end of the meal." Callum said and gave Alexander a gentle shove towards the door. "Get going, you don't want to be late."
"Thanks Cal, you're the best." Alexander said feeling a bit happier.
He left before Callum answered, "I know," with a huge grin on his face which his parents noticed as he entered the lounge.
"What's got you grinning like the cat that got the cheese?" John asked.
"Just a little conversation I had with Al. You'd think he was going to ask Brad's parents for permission to marry him, he's so nervous." Callum said.
"And are you perhaps a little jealous?" Rose asked.
"Envious yes, jealous no. Those two were meant to be together and I've gained by it." Callum answered.
"How do you work that out?" John asked.
"It was Brad's unrecognised feelings for Al that made him insist on us including Al in the sleepover. Out of that I've gained a friend in my little brother; my friendship with both Brad and Dom has improved since the sleepover; and Al has made all three of us realise some important truths about our friendships and relationships. Yes, I'd like to have a boyfriend, but neither Brad nor Dom pull me in that way so I can only keep on looking." Callum explained.
"Both you boys make your mother and I very proud. That response to your best friend taking up with your little brother is one of the wisest and most mature attitudes I've seen in a long time. Thank you." John said.
"We've got good teachers." Callum responded. "And we love you two very much and are very proud of you also. Not every teen has got such caring and understanding parents who don't hide their love for us. Thank you." Callum emphasised the last two words to show that he had understood John thanking him.
"Well, I'd better be getting on with the lunch then. Anyone care to help?" Rose said as she stood up.
"You got me." Callum said and stood up to follow his mother into the kitchen.
By the time Alexander had walked to the Wright's home his nerves had come back and his knees were literally knocking together as he stood at their front door waiting for his knock to be answered. Seconds after he had knocked he could hear the thumps as Bradley bounded down the stairs to answer the door; calling out to his parents that he would get it. As he looked at Alexander his immediate thought was that he was looking at a sad puppy.
"What's the matter?" Bradley asked, both surprised and very concerned.
"I don't know. I guess I'm a bit scared." Alexander told him.
"Fuck! I should've come and got you so you didn't have to walk all that way alone. I'm sorry. But you'll be okay. My parents already like you and soon they'll love you; not as much as I do, but in a different way." Bradley told him and pulled him through the door before wrapping his arms around him and giving him a big hug followed by a passionate kiss.
"I'm sorry. I hope I don't spoil it for you." Alexander said.
"No chance of that. You can't spoil a thing. Whatever you do or say will be great by me." Bradley assured him. "Now come on, let's go meet the folks again or they'll think I've whisked you upstairs for a quick bit of hanky-panky before lunch."
Alexander blushed at that thought and then giggled as he pulled his trainers off to leave them in the hallway. Bradley led him through to the lounge where Bradley's father, Colin was sitting having a coffee. "Hello, Alexander, welcome to our home again."
"Hello, Mr. Wright. Thank you," Callum replied.
"None of this `mister' young man, Colin will do fine. I don't want to feel old too soon." Colin told him.
Angela walked into the lounge before Alexander got a chance to sit down and she wrapped her arms around him, much the same as Bradley had, and gave him a little kiss on his cheek. "Welcome to our home, Alexander, I'm so glad to see you again."
"Uhh, hello... " Alexander began, as he started to blush again.
"Angela; call me Angela," Angela interrupted him when she saw he was uncertain how to address her; "Bradley can you sort out drinks for the table please as we'll be eating soon?"
"Sure mum." Bradley answered and then began to find out what each person wanted and left Alexander with Colin while he went to get the drinks ready.
"I can see you're a bit nervous, and we can understand that and I'm sure as you get to know Angela and me better your nerves will go. You've made Bradley so happy that we liked you before we ever met you; so you've got no reason to be nervous." Colin told him.
He went on to ask Alexander about his school and what he hoped to do as a career. By the time Bradley came back to the lounge to announce that lunch was on the table, Alexander was more relaxed and possibly through his being able to talk freely with his own parents, was chatting with Colin on an equal level. Later, after Alexander had gone home, Colin told Bradley that he would have to watch out because he had chosen a very bright and clever boy to have as a boyfriend. Bradley beamed with happiness at his father's praise of Alexander.
By the end of the meal Alexander had relaxed completely and was sharing in the banter around the table as if he was a member of the family and Callum's prediction had come true. Both Colin and Angela loved Alexander in a way that was to grow as his relationship with their son grew. At the same time, they felt a growing fear of what would happen should the two boys ever part company with each other.
When they had finished eating the four went back to the lounge with Colin and Angela choosing an armchair each leaving the sofa for Bradley and Alexander. Alexander sat first and then Bradley sat down next to him leaving the smallest of gaps between them. Bradley reached over and put his hand over Alexander's hands which were clasped together in his lap. He worked his hand between both of Alexander's and once he had got the one loose from the other he pulled Alexander's hand over as he slipped his fingers between Alexander's fingers. Their joined hands came to a rest in the valley between their touching legs. The banter from around the table continued in the lounge and both of Bradley's parents were impressed with Alexander's quick responses. They also liked it that those responses were never rude or cheeky even if they did get one over the two of them at times.
Bradley did manage to get Alexander away for a walk `to show him the neighbourhood' and on their return they got a cool drink each and went up to Bradley's room. Bradley showed him the nude sketch Dom had done of him and they got in some kissing but went no further than that as Alexander began to discuss with Bradley how he could help Ben begin to gain some trust amongst his peers at school. Before they knew it, the afternoon had slipped away and it was time for Alexander to take his leave and go home. The two kissed again and then went downstairs in search of Bradley's parents for Alexander to say good bye.
They found them in the lounge and Bradley told them that Alexander was going to leave and he intended walking part of the way with him.
"Thank you for coming to our home. You'll always be welcome here and even if Bradley isn't at home you can still pop in for a drink and a chat." Angela told him and pulled him into a hug. Colin offered Alexander a hand to shake and said much the same thing Angela had; adding that Alexander was not to become a stranger.
The next morning as Alexander and Callum walked into the school Alexander saw Ben and went over to him and greeted him with a hug. This caused a number of surprised stares from those in their year group but as Alexander was fairly popular there weren't any taunting remarks made. At break time Ben approached a couple of boys he had been especially mean to and told them that he was sorry and that he promised he would not try to make them do anything anymore.
"I don't fucking believe you, you arsehole." One of them responded with a definite tone of bitterness in his voice.
"I promise you, I mean it." Ben said and began to turn away.
"Prove it; if you can!" the other boy stopped Ben in his turn.
"The only way I can prove it is by living it. Hopefully one day you'll find you can trust me and maybe even forgive me for what I've done to you. You know that I've kept what I know a secret and I'll continue to keep it secret only now I'm promising without asking for anything in return.
"So what's happened that's made you come to us like this?" The first boy asked.
"I realised that what I was doing was not helping me, it was just making more people hate me. Then Alex showed me that I can do things differently. Don't ask how, but watch and see. I'll try to show you that I'm telling the truth." Ben replied.
"Okay, we'll be watching you; even when you don't think so. You'd better not slip up."
Ben had expected worse and this encouraged him to approach a few of the others he had been mean to and had similar talks with them meeting with the same level of scepticism but he did not see this as bad. With the friendship of Alexander and some tolerance from David who was still a bit sceptical, Ben had what he termed the best week of his life at school. Even the times when Alexander was not with him, he still managed to feel good about himself and spoke with a few others who while still wary, were towards the end of the week beginning to hope that they could believe he had changed and were beginning to also give him the benefit of the doubt.
One of the reasons that Alexander was not with Ben more, was that he was engineering times to be with Bradley which invariably included Dominic and Callum. On two of those occasions the opportunity was there for Alexander to check that Dominic was obeying his forfeit and he was very happy to discover both times that he was. After the second time of getting his hand down Dominic's trousers and having a feel for long enough to get Dominic both hard and leaking he confessed, "actually, I'm still doing it too when I have the chance. You can check if you want."
"Well, I've checked once already, so if one of you two want to check, go ahead," Bradley offered.
"Come here, you rascal. You know Ben thinks this is hilarious and says he can't wait till we get the opportunity to play again because he thinks he'll give me the same forfeit again if he gets the chance." Dominic said.
Alexander stepped up close to Dominic who instead of putting his hand down Alexander's trousers, pulled him into a hug and said, "Thank you for helping Ben and me to become friends. It's so nice not to be constantly fighting or angry at each other and our parents have even said they might leave us on our own together more so that they can get out for some alone times."
"You know some of those that he was mean to are already talking to him like he's a normal guy now. I bet they'd be a bit different if they knew the real reason why he'd been such an arsehole to them." Alexander said.
"Well one day they might find out, but that won't be because of anything we've done to out him." Bradley said.
"Damn right." Dominic agreed.
Callum added; "and you know how good us Ashbournes are at keeping secrets."
Bradley and Alexander did manage to get some times together during the week although the best they could do was to give each other a blow job or a quick wank. But they did talk to each other every day; if not face to face while at school or on the way home from school they would chat for a good time on their mobiles in the evenings. Also their school curriculums were such that the one afternoon when the older boys could get together Alexander couldn't join them. It was not until the weekend that they were given this opportunity and that was at the Carter's house as Dominic's parents decided to test the waters a bit, and leave the two boys alone together from lunch time on Saturday, with the knowledge that they would not be home until the early hours of Sunday morning, as they were travelling to London to take in a show at one of the theatres there.
When he was told this, Dominic got permission for Bradley, Callum and Alexander to come round for a BBQ. Dominic's father phoned both families and explained the situation to them and was told by both Bradley's mum and Callum's dad that they had no worries about the five of them being together without an adult present as they trusted all of those who were going to be there. John also offered to be on standby should they need any help and said he would personally check with them all when he picked the boys up after the BBQ that each of them was alright. Colin then offered to take the two Ashbournes and Bradley there and then asked Bradley to find out the earliest they could be dropped off because he was sure they wanted as much time together as they could get. Thus it was that shortly after three in the afternoon there were five naked teenage boys looking forward to nearly seven hours of naked fun.
They started off in the kitchen getting some cool drinks and some snacks when Ben said, "Al and Brad, you can use my room for a bit if you want."
"Have you set up spy cameras in there?" Dominic teased.
"No! You know that is finished for me now!" Ben shot back and it was clear that he had been hurt by the remark.
"Sorry Ben, I was only teasing. I'm proud of how you've stopped whatever all you were doing and now are trying to show the guys that you've changed. I'll try to remember that's not a subject to tease about. Will you forgive me?" Dominic apologised.
"Of course. I want us to stay friends and friends have to forgive everything." Ben said.
"Okay, thanks. We'd still be friends even if you didn't forgive me." Dominic said. "So you two going to get a room or are you just going to do your loving in front of us?"
"Right now, I think we'll stick with you guys for a bit first and then see if we need to go off by ourselves." Bradley said.
"Yeah, I want to see what you've got planned to do." Alexander answered.
"Well apart from the BBQ and this way of being dressed I didn't plan anything really." Dominic answered.
"I did though." Ben piped up.
"What did you think of?" Alexander asked.
"Well, you have all felt each other's cocks and been felt by each but I haven't so I thought you might let me get level with you guys and do some touching and so on." Ben replied.
"You've already felt and been felt by me and I think Alex has had some contact too." Dominic said.
"Yes, but not when we've been altogether and all naked." Ben said.
"Okay, how about we play a game then? Something like spin the bottle or poker and the loser has to let Ben have a good old feel for a minute or so and if Ben loses then the last person he touched has a good feel of him for the minute." Callum suggested.
"I bet you suggested poker because you want Ben to jerk you off. You're such a poor player." Dominic teased.
"Now you come to mention it maybe we should just play snap." Callum responded beginning to laugh. "Although I didn't do so badly in the tent."
"One question!" Bradley raised a pointed finger, "Have you got cards?"
"That would help." Alexander added.
"I think so." Dominic said.
"I've got some in my room, but they're not mine. I got them off someone; then used it to make him do things." Ben said. "I'll have to give them back on Monday, but I guess we could use them first."
"How'd you use a pack of cards to blackmail someone?" Dominic asked
"You'll know when you see them." Ben said and ran off up the stairs to get them. He was back quickly and spread the cards out on the table with the back side up.
"Those look like ordinary cards to me." Dominic said
"Turn one over." Ben instructed.
Dominic reached forward and turned the card nearest to him over, "Fucking hell! Are they all like this?" he asked. Seeing the first card the boys all reached forward and turned a card over. Then there was a mad scramble to turn the rest over.
"And you got these off a boy in your class?" Bradley asked.
"No, he's in the year above us." Ben replied.
"And he's gay?" Callum asked.
"I think so. Why else would he have a deck of cards with pictures of naked guys with hard-ons on them?" Ben reasoned.
"And you threatened to `out' him unless he did what?" Dominic asked.
"But couldn't he just deny that the cards were his?" Callum asked.
"Not when these two jokers go with the pack." Ben slid two cards out of the box he had been holding in his hand and placed them face down on the table so the others could see they were from the same pack. Bradley leaned forward and turned the two cards over. One showed a naked teen from the back but he was twisted to look back at you so his face was in view. The other showed the same naked teen but in a full frontal.
"Shit, that's him. I don't know his name but I've seen him at school. How did he get this pack like this?" Callum asked.
"That's one thing that he has refused to tell me. And I really would never out him anyway. I just used the threat to get him to strip and do my homework for me while he was naked." Ben confessed.
"It could be a big risk, but if you come out to him when you give him the pack back maybe he'll then tell you how to get hold of a pack." Dominic suggested.
"That could be a big risk especially if Ben no longer has the hold over him." Bradley said.
"Maybe you could just ask him that now you've given him the pack back he can tell you how you can get a pack for yourself." Alexander suggested.
"If he's refused under threat, then I doubt he'll do it with the threat taken away." Callum suggested.
"I'll go with you when you take them back and see if a more senior person can persuade him." Dominic said.
"No! You can't. He'll know then that I've broken the terms of our deal. I mean I haven't had him do anything for a while because I've had others to sort out, but the deal still stands." Ben said.
"Well let's get on with the game while we think about this." Bradley suggested and the five of them got down to playing some hands of poker. Callum reverted back to his old form for the first hand and found himself lying on his back on the living room carpet while Ben played with his already hard cock for a minute. You could see the disappointment in Ben's expression when Bradley declared the minute to be up.
"Maybe we can make it two minutes next time." Ben suggested.
"No that's too long for the rest of us to wait. Come on it's your deal now. I've shuffled the cards while you were having your fun." Dominic told his brother and handed over the pack to him. Keeping it in the family Alexander lost the next round and then Callum lost the third round. As Callum lay down a bead of pre-cum oozed out of his cock and Ben quickly got a finger over it and spread it around the tip of Callum's cock as it peeped out of his foreskin. A minute of play later and his cock head was glistening with the pre-cum as Ben had managed to get his foreskin pulled all the way back and then spread the next lot of pre-cum over the head. This got Callum groaning from the pleasure which Ben was giving his cock head. Both Callum and Ben groaned when Bradley told them that the time was up. Callum even considered losing purposely with the idea that if he lost each time he might be brought off. But then he thought it would be nothing more than a system of edging which could be even harder to take.
As it was Dominic lost the next hand and lay down to let his brother have sixty seconds of fun. Then Alexander got a second turn at being felt by Ben and was very happy to get to return the favour as Ben lost the next hand. Knowing how well Bradley could play the game, the jury is still out on whether he lost on purpose to give Ben a chance to have a go at his cock and when time was called at the end of his minute Callum suggested that now that Ben had had a feel of all four of them, he should just lie down in the middle and all four would get in some time on his body at the same time. Ben didn't give them time to discuss it but lay down in the middle immediately, with his pecker bobbing in time to his heart beat with the little flap of foreskin still loose at the end of his cock waving in the air; and a glisten of pre-cum around its edges.
"As Al and I've already had a feel, we'll start at either end while you two start in the middle and let's see where we meet." Dominic suggested.
Alexander would really have liked to spend more time with Ben's cock, but he realised the fairness in what Dominic was proposing and just moved around to kneel at Ben's head. That settled it without the need for any discussion. Bradley and Callum each knelt on either side of Ben at waist level while Dominic got down at Ben's feet. The four then set about pleasuring and exciting as many of Ben's erogenous zones as they could. Being a horny almost-teen, that practically meant anywhere that there was naked skin. Within seconds Ben was groaning and squirming in pleasure. Having already had a minute of cock teasing and several minutes of enjoying the other's cocks Ben was in no fit state to try and control himself to hold off his orgasm. Dominic was tickling his legs while rubbing his own cock against the soles of Ben's feet. Alexander was leaning over Ben's face with his cock and balls swinging millimetres above that face while he used his hands to play with Ben's nipples and armpits moving between the two areas with each hand. Callum and Bradley were taking it in turns to stroke Ben's cock and play with his balls while also teasing Ben's belly button and tickling the little bit of his bum that was not pressed into the carpet.
"Oh fuck! Oh fuck! I can't hold it off!" Ben said as he felt his orgasm mounting as fast as an express train only a couple of minutes into his pleasure by the quartet. Bradley had his hand on Ben's cock when Ben spoke and he quickly pulled Ben's foreskin back and placed his thumb on the hotspot by the fraenulum. Rubbing it in little circles with plenty of pre-cum for lube took Ben to the edge and right over it. His first shot of cum erupted with such force that it hit Bradley in the face. If Bradley had had Ben's cock pointing up his body instead of at right angles to it, Ben would have got a face shot. Although the orgasmic spasms continued for a bit, Ben ran dry after only three shots and a bit of a dribble. But Bradley kept playing with his cock until Ben asked him to stop.
"You shot me in the face. Maybe I should make you lick it off now." Bradley said smiling to show that he was not upset.
"Fuck that! I'm your boyfriend, I get to lick your face." Alexander said and leant even further forward over Ben in an attempt to get his tongue onto Bradley's chin where the biggest bit of cum was sitting. Bradley leaned toward him and soon the licks became a snog with Ben still lying under Alexander.
As Ben recovered from his orgasm he became more aware of what was going on over him. His eyes picked out the swinging cock and balls now hovering over his chest rather than his face, and he lifted his hand to begin pumping Alexander's cock. Before he was able to make Alexander cum, Bradley leaned back and pulled Alexander over with him taking that delightful cock out of Ben's reach.
