You're in Trouble
Part 5 - Pain and Sorrow
For the brother's another crisis overcome but the respite from tension was short lived. Two nights later they made their biggest mistake.
Tom and Pam had gone out for the evening so Todd and Timmy retired early to have a long languorous love in. Timmy was lying on his back covered in the cum from multiple orgasms and Todd was propped on one elbow leaning over him kissing his nipples and with his softening cock laying across Timmy's thigh. Neither boy heard the parents come in so the first they knew was when their door opened and Dad poked his head in, meaning to just say they were back. He took in the picture instantly and was shocked speechless. He just stared until the boys pulled a sheet over themselves, both of them registering shock as well.
"Oh jeez Dad, we're sorry, we're so sorry."
Tom spoke at last.
"Get showered, get dressed, be in my study in fifteen minutes."
Todd and Timmy were terrified as they showered neither of them saying anything.
Fully dressed they knocked on the door of Tom`s study before entering.
They didn't like what they saw. Their father's desk was clear except for a leather belt. Tom was sat behind it stripped to trousers and shirt with sleeves rolled up. He had never used cp on the boys and was wrestling in his mind with this one. He ought to thrash both of them, but Todd was the oldest and almost certainly the instigator so he should receive it. Timmy was Pam's son and he wasn't sure she would let him get away with pasting his bottom.
That problem was solved before he had to think about it. Pam came in to see what was going on.
"What are the boys doing here Tom, and why have you got a belt on your desk?"
Tom was blushing, he was monstrously embarrassed.
"I have just caught these two having sex with each other."
Pam started to cry softly.
"I thought something like this was going on, I just didn't want to accept it. Gay sex is bad enough Todd, but with your brother, that is incest. What are you going to do Tom?"
The reply didn't please the boys.
"Probably thrash them unconscious and then send one of them away forever."
Timmy burst into tears and Todd dropped to his knees in front of the desk.
"I'm sorry Dad, we know what we have been doing is wrong but we love each other so much. We always have, it only became sexual a few weeks ago when we both realised we were gay. Please don't separate us and I beg you not to beat Timmy. I'll take his punishment."
Todd started to cry then.
"I beg you Dad, don't touch Timmy. He's your Baby, you can't hurt him."
Swivelling round to face his Mother, Todd continued.
"He's your son Mum, he always has been and I'm Dad's son, we both know that. You can't let Dad hurt him, I beg you."
He curled up on the floor then sobbing. Tom was shocked, this big jock football playing son, who he hadn't seen cry since he was very, very young was coming apart, not at his own possible punishment, but that of his brother.
"Pam I think you should leave me to sort this."
She did but with a pleading look at her husband first.
Tom sat looking at the two boys that he loved so much and was so proud of, one a brilliant sportsman, the other a sensitive and gentle boy that was a true scholar. He could not have wished for a better pair.
"Stand up Todd, stop snivelling. Both of you get naked."
Todd was shocked out of his crying by the last comment. He stood alongside Timmy and the two of them undressed in unison. Underwear came off together and hands covered cocks together. Tom laughed,
"Don't be coy with me, I've just seen everything remember."
Hands came down to their sides.
"Your fate, both of you, depends to a certain extent on the answers I get. If I detect any lies, or bullshit I'll thrash you and throw you out of this house, disowned."
Eyes wide in shock, both boys looked straight at their father
"When I ask you a question Timmy, you keep quiet Todd, and vice versa. Do you understand?"
Both boys said "Yes Sir," together.
Tom blanched, he had never been called anything but Dad by his sons.
"How long have you known you were gay Todd?"
"I'm not sure Dad, about six years ago I had feelings for boys but didn't know what they meant. I've never acted on them until a few weeks ago."
"Timmy?"
"Just a few weeks Dad."
"Timmy was your brother the first boy you had sex with?"
"No Dad."
"Todd, have you had penetrative sex with Timmy?"
Todd gulped, "Yes Sir."
"Timmy, have you fucked your brother?"
Both boys blanched at the ferocity behind the word fuck.
"Yes Sir."
Tom shrank into his seat at that. To his mind that was totally disgusting, a bit of mutual playing would have been bad enough but fucking each other was too awful.
"Both of you, do you know what incest is?"
"Yes Sir," in unison, but now they dropped their eyes from their father's.
"Why Timmy then Todd?"
"Because I love him so much it didn't feel wrong making love to him.
"And you Timmy?"
"I love Todd with all my heart Sir, he takes me to Paradise when we make love."
Timmy broke down then.
"I'm sorry Daddy, I'm so sorry but I do love Todd and I don't care what anyone says about incest or gay love I know I will always love him and want him."
Todd took Timmy in his arms and started stroking his back, whispering to him.
"Don't cry Baby, it's going to be alright. I'll look after you always."
Tom had tears in his eyes now. What on earth was he to do, the love that his sons had for each other shone through, but this was wrong.
"I want you to pick up your clothes and go to your own bedrooms. I will think on this overnight. It is far too serious for me to pass judgement while I am so disgusted and angry."
Timmy's sob was heartbreaking and Tom was surprised that Todd looked at him with anger in his eyes. God the boy had guts, he wondered if Todd would have allowed him to beat Timmy.
"On second thoughts, I think a good beating would do you both good, Timmy bend over my desk."
Todd jumped in front of Timmy.
"No Dad, you aren't going to beat him. Give me double but you aren't going to touch him."
"You love him that much that you'll fight me?"
"Yes Sir, I'm sorry but you aren't going to hurt him."
"Alright, bed, both of you."
So, Todd's love was that deep. What the hell could he do? Pam, for a discussion.
Tom related everything to Pam leaving out nothing. The tears in his eyes let his wife know the depth of his sadness at this situation.
"I'm lost Pam, I can't condone it, forbidding it while they are both in this house would make a mockery of my authority because they would any way if they love each other as much as I believe they do. Sending one of them away would break my heart; I love those boys more than my life."
"We need to sleep on this Tom and then probably go for counselling."
Tom blanched at that, he had a male's natural loathing of shrinks.
No one slept very well in the Hanlon household that night. Breakfast the next morning was, to say the least, a very strained affair.
"Your Mother and I haven't come to a decision on what action to take with you two. Until we do you are to have no physical contact with each other, if you disobey me I will banish one of you. Do you understand?"
Neither boy would look at their father but mumbled, "Yes Sir."
School was a nightmare, neither boy could muster one word for friends, they participated in no lessons surprising their teachers, and avoided each other during lesson breaks.
Both retired to their rooms to do their assignments and that is where their father found them when he came in from work.
"Todd, my study."
Todd was very apprehensive stood in front of his father.
"I want your promise that you will cease all sexual activity with your brother. Before you answer let me tell you that I will punish you like I intended to last night if I don't get it."
Todd shook his head, "I'm sorry Dad, I can't do that. I can try but I'm not sure I want to succeed which means I probably won't."
"In that case, strip."
Todd did, he was prepared to take his punishment and wondered what would happen afterwards.
"Bend over my desk and grip the other edge. Do not move until I tell you to."
Tom had tears in his eyes as he delivered the first stroke with his belt. He had every intention of making it as hard as he could in the hope that Todd would fold after just a couple and give his word.
The strike was vicious and incredibly powerful. Todd could not believe the pain, his scream came from deep inside and was easily heard throughout the house. The second one was just as hard and the scream just as loud, but before he could deliver the third one Timmy had burst in and thrown himself across Todd to protect him.
"Don't you dare hit him again, I hate you, I hate you, don't you touch my brother I love him with all my heart. I'll never forgive you if you hurt him anymore."
Timmy was screaming and sobbing and the look on his face made Tom recoil, the hate emanating from those eyes was almost palpable, Tom was shaken to the core, he just threw the belt down and went to his bedroom.
Pam found him there sobbing having found Todd and Timmy first. Timmy had a naked Todd on his bed applying ointment to his bottom which she noted had two wide bruises, already heavily swollen.
"Tom, what is it? What have you done to Todd?"
Tom told her.
"I only managed two before Timmy came in screaming how he hated me for hurting his brother. What are we going to do Pam? I don't want my sons to hate me. You know how much I love them."
Pam sighed, "I think we have to let this run its course. Hope that they both find boyfriends to love for sex, instead of each other."
Tom looked shocked, "How can we that is against all our civil and religious teaching?"
"We have never been particularly religious Tom, teaching the boys to do their best, to love more than hate, to help and respect other people and in Todd's case to love and protect his little brother. They have done all of that and made us so proud of their achievements, now they have taken it to a stage we didn't consider, but Todd is still obeying you. He is loving and protecting our Baby."
Pam left him then to go to her eldest son, she knew more than Timmy and very quickly had Todd comfortable by placing cold compresses on his bottom packed with ice.
Timmy stood guard at the door worried about his father.
"Timmy, you told your father you hate him, do you?"
Timmy looked devastated. "Yes I hate him, look what he has done Todd."
"How old are you?"
"Sixteen, but what has that got to do with it?"
"How often has your father beaten you?"
"Never."
"Todd, you're eighteen. How often, before today has your father beaten you."
"Never Mum, I don't hate Dad, but I couldn't give him the promise he wanted, to do so I would have had to lie."
"Your father would die for either of you, he loves you so much but this is something he can't get his head round. It's bad enough you are both gay but gay and making love to each other is wrong and he doesn't know how to handle it. You have damaged his love, it is inherent on you now to try to rebuild it. We aren't going to place any restrictions on you, just don't throw your activities in your father's face. Todd, you are to buy a lock for your door and lock it when the two of you are in here together. We will respect your privacy just make sure we neither of us see anything untoward."
Timmy was shattered, he looked from Todd to his Mum and then ran out. He burst into his parents' bedroom and threw himself on his father who was still lying on the bed.
"I'm sorry Daddy, I'm sorry, I don't hate you. I will try so hard to make you proud of me. I love you, please forgive me."
Tom stroked the head of his youngest son and marvelled at the love and joy he had always brought him.
"I know you will my beautiful boy."
Man and boy were exhausted by the tension and stress of the last 24 hours. It was nearly an hour later when one very relieved mother found her youngest son asleep in the arms of her sleeping husband. She went back to Todd's room and took him by the hand to show him her other two men.
Back downstairs with Mum preparing dinner and Todd sat at the breakfast bar with a soda, Pam talked.
"You have a huge job on your hands Todd. To regain your father's respect is going to take some work. However good you were at everything before you are now going to have to be twice as good. What you are doing with your brother is going to weigh heavily on his mind. Love will not be quite as unconditional as it was before."
"I know Mum, and I will make him proud of me again. I know Timmy will as well. You'll see, we'll both make you so proud but you have to understand my great love for Timmy."
"We know, you've always had more love for him than any siblings I've ever seen."
Dinner was a quiet affair, the normal vibrant chatter totally missing. When it was finished Tom stood, looked at Todd and said.
"I'm sorry I beat you son. I'm so proud of the way you stood up to me to protect your brother last night."
He turned and left then so that his family would not see the tears.
Todd and Timmy, by mutual consent went to their own rooms that night, but that was the last time they did before Todd went off to college.
Normal loving resumed the next day behind a locked door.
Timmy had taken over nursing duties getting quite a giggle out of rubbing cream into Todd's bottom occasionally letting a finger find its way into a very receptive anus.
Physically the boys came back to normal quickly, mentally there was ahuge amount of strain. They wanted to show their love for each other all the time when they were together but had to pussyfoot around their parents only able to pass loving looks in each other's direction until they could be alone.
The family reacts badly to the new circumstances in the next part.
