Brothers At Play part 14



Steve went Christmas shopping with Cathy.  Kevin was spending the day with
friends.  Alex and I had breakfast and then headed out to shop.  I didn't
have a lot of money, mostly money I saved from my allowance (We all had a
list of weekly chores) and birthday gifts.  Alex, the twins and I always
pooled out money and bought our parents a gift. This year we gave the money
to Alex.  A gift for Mom and a gift for Dad were on the top of our list.

The brothers always bought each other a small gift.  I had a list of CD's,
books and clothing that I handed out.  My brothers did the same.  Alex and
I had lunch and then shopped some more.  He had to buy a gift for his new
girlfriend, Kimberly.

"What are you going to buy Kim," I asked.

"I'm not sure.  I want to get her something nice, personal but not too
personal."

"Let's look."

We found gifts for my mother and father and the twins, but nothing for Kim.
It was time to get home for dinner.  When we got home, Alex talked to my
mother about what he should get for Kim.  She asked him a lot about their
relationship.  I listened.  It sounded like Alex really liked her a lot.

"I think a nice simple piece of jewelry would be appropriate," my mother
said.  "Not too expensive.  A simple chained necklace with a pearl or a
charm.  You've got good taste," she said, smiling.

The twins came to our room after dinner.  We showed them what we bought for
Mom and Dad.  We talked.  Kevin asked about Kim.

Alex and I lay in our beds talking with the lights out.  I had told John
that we were skipping our workout that day, but were back to it the next
day.  Alex, again, said he was interested in meeting John.

"I really don't think he's gay," I said.

"Is he a good friend?"

"Yes, very.  There's a girl we hang out with that I think he really likes.
I think if his parents said he could date he'd ask her out."

"I didn't think anyone did that except Dad," he said.

The house was quiet.  He stepped out of his bed and into mine.  He was
naked, so was I.  I cuddled up against him.  "I want to talk to about
something."

"Is this bad?"

"I hope not," he said.  I felt sick.  "You know how I feel about you."

I nodded and sighed.  "You're not coming home anymore?"

"No, that's not it." I exhaled.  "It's about Kim.  I think she and I are
going to be monogamous."

"Weren't you with your last girlfriend?"

"No, not really and maybe that's why it didn't work, besides I didn't feel
about her the way I feel about Kim."

"Okay, so you're saying what?"

"Well, I think if I ask her to be monogamous and I say that I am being
monogamous and then I'm having sex with you and Kevin and Don.  Well, I'd
feel like a creep, plus I don't think I'd enjoy it."

"But we jerked off this morning."

"Okay, about that.  Greg and I have talked about this.  He's monogamous
with his girlfriend but he told her that there is no way he'd ever stop
jerking off.  I'm never going to stop jerking off, never.  I'm going to
tell Don that I won't do anything with him any more, not even jerk off,
because once my dick is out, he begs and begs."

"Yeah, I know what you mean."

"So, what we did this morning is fine.  You can grab my junk any time you
want.  Well, not anytime, you know what I mean." I nodded.

"But you said that we were going to blow each other tonight."

"I'd like to.  As I said, it's something that I want to talk to her about.
And if she agrees, then we'll be monogamous.  I was going to talk to her
about it before I left, but then I wanted time with you before I talked to
her."

I sighed.

"I already talked to Kevin about it over the phone, but I wanted to talk to
you in person.  Josh, I love you and miss you and count the months until
you'll be at school.  I think about you ten times a day.  None of that will
change."

"I understand," I said.  "You know, when you're gone, I don't miss the sex
so much."

He laughed, "Kevin keeps you busy."

I chuckled.  "Yeah, I guess that's true, but I miss you.  My room seems so
lonely.  When I played football and I'd be so happy that we won, I always
wished you'd be here.  When I was stuck with homework, I go in the twins
room and ask them, but I wanted to ask you." I started to cry.  He pulled
me to him.  "I'm okay with you being monogamous.  I just wish you were here
or I was there so we could talk and hang out."

"I miss that too. As much as I like Greg, and I do really like Greg, I miss
you being there."

"I'm okay with us not having sex," I said.  "I like what we did in the
shower this morning." We held each other.  I lifted my head from his chest,
smiled and said, "So, you're not monogamous yet?"

He laughed.  "Not yet.  And I have some good news.  The flights were booked
going back and the flight I could get was really expensive, so I talked Mom
and Dad into you and Kevin driving me back.  That means that we'll stop for
the night before we get there and then you and Kevin can stop on the way
back."

"Does Kevin know?"

"Yes, but I told him to let me tell you."

"So," I said, putting my hand on his junk.  "Does this mean we can do stuff
before you talk to her."

He laughed.  "You know, Kevin asked me that same thing.  Yes."

His cock had gotten hard in my hand.  I moved down on him, licking.  I took
his cock in my mouth.  He moaned.  "Can we do each other?" I flipped
around.  We lay on our sides and leisurely sucked each other's cock.  I
remembered the first time we jerked off together.

"Do you remember the first time we talked about jerking off and you said I
could jerk off here and you wouldn't look?"

He laughed.  "You said, `yes you will', and I said that you were right." We
laughed and went back to giving each other head.  We kept stopping when one
of us would get close.  "You like doing that, don't you?"

"Sucking your dick?  Yeah."

"Making me really horny." He said.  "As long as you do it to me, I'm going
to do it to you."

We sucked each other for almost and hour.  When he came, he came hard.  I
had to swallow several times.  It took him minutes before he got back to
sucking my dick.  When I came, I shook.  He moaned.

After we both came, we lay with each other, me with my head on his chest.
"I'm okay with us not doing stuff.  Really, I am.  It's fun, but you're my
brother and you're always going to be my brother."

"Don't you ever tell the twins this, but you're my favorite brother by far.
I love them, but I'd die for you."

Tears filled my eyes.  I knew it was true.  That's more important than sex.
There wasn't a time that Alex was home that he and I were not together,
except when he went to buy my Christmas gift.

The next morning we showered together.  I was surprised when he turned and
arched his back.  "Go slow, you were the last to fuck me and that a while
ago."

I put my cock against his butt hole and very slowly pressed in.  Once in
him, I stood still and let him back into me.  Then I held his hips and
fucked him.  He moaned, looking back at me.  It wasn't long before I was
ready to come.  I wrapped my arms around his chest and held on, standing on
my toes and pushing into him.  I kept mumbling, "oh fuck," over and over,
licking and kissing his back.

He turned and held me.  "Jerk me off," he said.

"No, fuck me."

"You sure?"

"Positive," I said, turning.  While he fucked me, he ran his hands over my
chest and stomach.

"Fuck, Josh, your body has changed so much in the last year.  Your back
muscles are great and you've got shoulders, and your chest is nice and
defined," he sighed into my ear as he thrust.  He ran his hand to my
crotch, grabbed my cock and balls and pressed himself deep inside of me.
"Fuck," he said, biting my shoulder.  "Fuck."

John came over that afternoon to workout.  Alex joined us.  We went out to
the workout room and undressed Šshoes and shorts.  Kevin and I watched John
glancing over at Alex as he stripped naked and pulled on his shorts.  We
lifted weights for almost two hours, each taking turns.  Alex said, "How
about if we go for a run then Sauna.  I need to really work the lungs.
Besides, we didn't do any legs today."

"John can wear some of my stuff," I said.  We went to the house.  I saw
Steve coming in.  "Hey were going for a run.  You want to come?"

"Yeah, sure," he said.

John, Alex and I went to my room.  The three of us stood naked as I dug
through my stuff.  I gave a jockstrap to John and Alex.  Dug out two pairs
of clean sweat pants and shirts.  I grabbed a pair of dirty ones for
myself.  Alex pointed to a cum stain on the leg of my sweat pants.  "What's
that, as if I didn't know."

I looked down and felt myself blush.  "Shut up," I said.

John laughed and said, "I have a pair just like those.  Stains and all."

That was the first time I heard John mention or joke about jerking off.

I said, "That's the stain on the outside." I pulled the waistband of my
pants and glanced in and said, "You should see the cum stains inside."

We laughed.

Off we went.  The twins ran ahead of us.  Alex talked to John, asking
questions about where he was from, why he moved etc.  I listened.  At the
high school, we ran the bleachers.  When we did one-arm pull-ups, I was
able to do seven without help on my right arm and six with the left.  Kevin
and Alex did ten on each without a problem.  John did about as well as I
did.  Steve did the worst.  On the way back, he took shit for that from
Alex and Kevin.  John and I lagged behind.

"You're brothers are great," he said.

"Yeah, I guess."



"Alex is in such great shape."

"He and Kevin and sometimes Steve used to workout when he lived here.  I
guess he and his roommate still workout."

We got to the place where one of us would take off at a sprint, when the
four of us ran together.  John was in the middle of a sentence when I took
off passing Alex and the twins.  I made it back to the house first, running
up the driveway and into the backyard, and did my, `once again I beat your
asses home' dance.  I got tackled by Alex and the twins. John stood over us
and watched as I got pants-ed.  They ran into the garage and into the
weight room.

John thought it was funny.  We all stripped naked and got in the sauna.
It's not large, perfect for four people.  We squeezed in.  Steve was on one
end, then Kevin, then me, John and Alex; five naked sweaty guys sitting on
a bench legs and shoulders touching.

"Where you thinking about going to college?" Alex asked John.

"My first choice is where you're going, but I guess I'll apply to State as
well," John answered.

Kevin nudged me.  "That's were I want to go.  Josh is applying too."

"Really," John said, looking at me.  I nodded.  "Cool."

Steve talked about the many advantages of going to the Christian college my
father went to.  We listened.

"I think it's hotter in here with five guys," I said.

Kevin said, "Yeah, hotter," and poked me.  I gave him a look that said,
shut up.  He laughed.  Kevin leaned into me and then grabbed my inner thigh
where I am very ticklish.  I jumped and almost landed in John's lap.

"Don't," I yelled.  "Sorry," I said to John.

Alex said, "He's very ticklish, very.  Hey remember this summer when we got
him to the floor."

"Okay, no stories," I said.



"Tell me," John said.

Kevin said, "He tried to wrestle with me.  I tickled him and pinned him to
the floor.  We pants him and shaved off his pubes."

John laughed.  I flipped off Kevin and Alex.  John said, "I noticed your
pubes were short last September."

I got up and said, "I'm going to take a shower, before this gets nuts."

John had dinner with us that night.  Alex and I drove him home.  "He likes
you," Alex said.

"Yeah, I like him too."

"He's attracted to you.  If he's not gay, then he's bi for sure.  Are you
attracted to him?"

"Yeah, I guess.  I mean he's got a nice body and he's a great guy."

"Is he the kind of guy who would have your back?" I looked at him.  "Would
he ever try to screw you over or betray your trust?  When you're not with
him, is he the kind of guy who would still have your back?"

I had never thought about that.  I guess he was asking me if I thought John
would act like Alex, Kevin and I acted toward each other.  We might argue
with each other but would never betray each other.  "I think he'd have my
back," I said.  "Yeah, I really do believe I can trust him."

"Well, I know you'd be that kind of friend to him.  If he comes to the
university, would you room with him?"

"Wow, I don't know. I mean I'd be fine with it.  I thought maybe Kevin and
I might room together."

"Josh, I'm going to be there.  Kevin is going to be there.  You should use
that time to build a circle of friends that are your friends and we'll be
your back up.  What you have to figure out is whether John is gay or not.
If he is, do you want him as a boyfriend, or just as a roommate or someone
you wouldn't want to live with.  If he's not gay, well, let me ask you
this.  How do you think he'll react when you tell him that you are?"

"I haven't thought of any of this.  I just figured after next year I
wouldn't see him anymore."

"Well, think about it, because I think he's into you.  If he's gay and he
tells you, what would you say?"

We were about home.  He pulled to the curb.  We talked for almost a half
hour.  Everything he said made sense.  He pulled into the driveway.  "All I
am saying, is that you should be prepared, search your feelings, decide
what you want before you're in a situation.  I think he'll ask you to be
roommates.  I'd be surprised if he didn't."

Alex and I had sex every night before we went to sleep and every morning in
the shower.  We had oral sex at night and fucked in the shower.  Although,
he was not one who liked getting fucked, every morning he turned and asked
me to fuck him.

We open our gifts Christmas morning.  It's a tradition.  But when we went
to bed, Christmas eve, Alex handed me a wrapped box.  "Tomorrow," I said.

"No, you've got to open it tonight.  I talked to Mom about this," he said,
as I tore open the package.

My mouth fell open, "You're kidding me.  An iPhone.  You're nuts.  No way,"
I said, opening the box.  "No way."

Another of my dad's arcane rules is that we couldn't have a cell phone
until we were juniors in high school.  "Mom put you on the family plan so
you can call me, Mom, Kevin and Steve free of charge.  You have free
minutes, too.  I got you unlimited texting."

"No way," I said, taking it out of the box.  "This is so expensive."

"Mom helped and it's not the very latest one, but it's good," he said,
sitting next to me.  "There are really cool `aps' you can get.  Just do us
all a favor, don't use it around dad.  If he sees it, Mom said to tell him
that she wanted you to have one.

"Now we can talk as much as we want," he said, "and I won't have to tell
Kevin to put you on.  And you can text me as much as you want."

I leaned toward him.  We kissed on the lips.  "Thank you.  Wow, this is
awesome," I said.  We sat on my bed, in our boxers brief and set it up. It
was after midnight when I texted Kevin.  (He sleeps with his phone, using
it as an alarm.)

My door opened.  In walked Kevin naked with his iPhone in one hand and his
sweat pants in the other. It looked like he had been asleep.  He dropped
his pants on the floor and sat beside us.  Alex took out his iPhone (these
were birthday gifts from my mother.)  We sat on my bed.  We set up a phone
book and ring tones.  They showed me an `ap' that was a Scrabble game.
Kevin and Alex played against each other.  Kevin was playing against other
friends of his.  So was Alex.

"Now we can play," Alex said.

When we noticed that it was almost three o'clock, Kevin said, "I'm going to
bed.  Mom will be calling us down at seven.  We're leaving the first thing
tomorrow morning," meaning the morning of the 26th.

"We don't have to leave early," Alex said.  "We're stopping for the night
once it gets dark." My mother gets a bit crazy if we are on the highway
after dark.

"Yeah, I know," he said, but the earlier we leave, the more time we'll
have," he said and grabbed his junk.

"Yeah, we can leave early," Alex said.

"Thank you for the phone," I said, as Alex got in his bed.

"I wanted to get you something special but in a way it's kind of gift for
me too.  Now we can talk, text and play Scrabble."

He was asleep in minutes.  I lay in my bed counting the months until I'd be
at the university.  Then I thought about John. What would telling him be
like?  Well, I thought, I don't have to worry about that for a while.

My grandparents were with us for dinner.  We told Alex what had happened at
Thanksgiving.  As I expected, my grandfather lectured Alex.  I had been
warned by my mother to `hold my tongue'.  So, when my grandfather started
on Alex, I opened my mouth, stuck out my tongue and grabbed it.  Kevin
elbowed me.  My mother glared.  Alex smiled.  My grandfather couldn't see
me from where he was sitting.  My father said to me, "What are you doing?"

"AH, I bit my tongue."

After dinner, when I was helping with the clean up, my mother passed me and
smacked me on the back of my head.  "You're so lucky I love you," she said.
Kevin, Steve and Alex started pinching and poking me.

We had asked Steve to come with us, even though Alex didn't like having sex
with him.  Steve asked if we were going to mess around.  Alex said, "We're
putting our names in one hat and sucking and fucking, top and bottom in
another hat.  You draw from both hats and do whatever it says with whomever
you get."

Steve shook his head.  "Cathy and I are going to hang out."

Kevin had told me that he and Steve were having oral sex about once a week
now.  "He jerks off every night when he goes to sleep if he doesn't ask me
to have oral sex with him." A couple times a month, he'd come into my room
with Kevin and hang out and ask to have oral sex.  We never said no.  "He's
decided that oral sex is fine," Kevin said.  "But anal sex is gay, so he
doesn't want to have that anymore." No one argued with him.

We left at 8 am.  Since both Alex and Kevin could take turns driving, we
decided to try and make it to the apartment in one shot.  Kevin said that
on the way back we'd still stop for the night.

Alex was driving and I was sitting up front.  Kevin said, "So, I have this
idea about what we should do."

"I bet you do," Alex said.

I looked into the backseat.  "So," Kevin said, "two things.  Since you're
retiring for a while, I think the three of us should suck and fuck each
other."

"So, you and Alex will blow me and I'll fuck the two of you," I said.

"Yeah, and the same with Alex and me."

"So, we'll be there tonight and all day tomorrow and tomorrow night, so we
can do that," I said, smiling.

"Yeah, sure, that's fine," Alex said.  "Why don't we do the hat thing?"

"Yeah, that'll be fun," I said.  "We can make a chart so that we do it
all." They laughed.

"One more thing," Kevin said.  I turned and looked at him again.  "Tonight,
how about this." He seemed shy.  "I've kind of thought it would be hot to
get fucked by the two of you over and over, you know what I mean."

"Yeah, I think so," I said, smiling.  I looked at Alex.  He looked at me.

"Yeah, sure, we can do that," Alex said.  "We'll fuck you until you can't
take it anymore or until we can't anymore."

"Yeah, exactly," Kevin said.

I had a hard on.  "I wish you had waited until we got there to say this," I
said.

We all laughed.

My mother called and wanted to know where we were and how we were doing?
When Alex hung up, I asked him, "You changed your mind about coming down
for more than two days.  Did Mom call you?"

"Yes."

"What did she say?" Kevin asked.

He thought for a while.  "I'm not sure what I should say."

Kevin said, "Dad realized he was fucking things up like his father did."

"Yeah, that's close to it.  She said that it would be different if I came
down."

"I guess it was," I said.  I thought about how the entire time Alex was at
home, my father didn't get on anyone.  "You going to come down for the
summer?"

Alex chuckled, "I doubt that the old man can go an entire summer without
getting on me about something.  Dad doesn't like me.  I don't know why, but
he doesn't.  Besides, I have a job."

I felt sad hearing him say that.

Kevin said, "I don't think it's about you.  He treats me the same as you.
He just has to do it."

My jaw tightened.

We stopped for burritos to go, when we got close to where Alex lived.
Getting back in the car, I said to Kevin, "You scared?"

He looked at me and said, "Of what?"

I grabbed my junk.  He laughed.

We all undressed.  Kevin had a hard on.  I wrapped my fingers around it.
It was rock hard.  "On your knees," I said, pointing to the floor.  He
laughed.  I put lube on my cock and dripped some on his hole.  Alex stood
beside me watching.  "You ready?"

"Go for it.  Do your best," he said.  "I can take whatever you can dish
out."

Alex and I smiled at each other.  "You asked for it," I said.  I put my
cock against his hole and in one very quick move, I was balls deep.

"Fuck," he moaned.  He took quick breaths.  "Damn, I think that thing is
still growing." I laughed and began fucking him.  I fucked him, slapping
his ass, pulling his hair, riding him until I got close.  I pulled out.

Alex knelt down.  "You got him nice a loose," he said and slammed into
Kevin.

"Fuck," he moaned.

We moved him around the room, taking turns.  Kevin was wet with sweat,
pre-cum dripping from his cock.  If he reached for his dick, Alex or I
would push his hand away.

"Have you had enough?" Alex asked.

"I could use a five minute break," Kevin said.

Alex pressed Kevin to the floor and fucked him hard until he came.  Then I
climbed on, pressing my cock into Kevin's cum filled hole.  I came in about
a minute.  Kevin went to the bathroom and showered.  Alex got a beer.  I
got a soda.  When Kevin returned he said, "You're not quitting are you?" He
sat and had a beer.

We had him on the floor again, fucking him in various positions.  I was
close again.  So was Alex.  Kevin said, "I saw this video.  Two guys
fucking this one guy."

"That's what were doing," I said.

"At the same time."

"No way.  How the fuck can we both fuck you.  That's impossible," I said.

I learned that it wasn't impossible.  I lay on the floor.  Kevin knelt over
me and sat on my dick and leaned forward.  Alex knelt behind Kevin.  I felt
his cock pressing against mine.  Kevin and I were looking into each other's
eyes.  When Alex pressed into Kevin, his eyes got wide, his mouth opened
wide and he grunted, "Oh fuck."

Alex began thrusting.  The feeling on my cock was incredible.  I started
thrusting.  Kevin face was bright red.  He kept grunting.  He began
masturbating.  Alex and I were thrusting hard.  My cock was rock hard.
Alex was thrusting faster than I could.  Then I felt Alex's cum wetting my
cock, as he moaned.  I kept thrusting.  He stopped.  I was thrusting hard.
My orgasm hit hard.  My hips kept thrusting as my body shook with pleasure.
Kevin was masturbating hard.  Alex pulled out of him.  Kevin sat down on my
still throbbing cock.  He moaned loudly and sprayed me with his cum.

Kevin lay down on me.  I held him.  He held me.  Alex leaned in.  I watched
him kissed Kevin on the lips.  Then Alex kissed me.  Kevin wet limp in my
arms.

Alex left us, going into the bathroom.  We heard the shower.  Kevin looked
at me and chuckled.  "I'm exhausted," he said.

We showered.  Alex got in his bed.  Kevin and I threw sleeping bags on
Greg's bed, cuddled up against each other and went to sleep. Kevin fell
asleep first.  He was cuddled up against my back with his arm around me.  I
fell asleep feeling safe, happy and comfortable.



The next day, I made a chart.  Kevin got fucked by both of us, so I checked
that off.  We did that hat thing.  The first up was me giving head to
Kevin.  He sat down on the sofa, waved his cock and me and said, "Come and
get it."

Kim called Alex that evening.  She was arriving the next day mid-afternoon.
Kevin and I decided to hang around and meet her, even thought we'd have to
leave soon after.  When she arrived, Alex's face lit up.  She was a
brunette, had deep blue eyes and looked to be athletic.  When she smiled,
her entire face smiled.  Instantly, I liked her.

"Alex talks about you all the time," she said to Kevin and I.  "I feel like
I know you."

Kevin and I got on the road at about three.  "She seems nice," I said.
"She's pretty, too."

"Alex seems to really like her," Kevin said.  "That's cool."

My mother called.  It was getting dark.  We promised to stop soon and call
her when we did.

Climbing into bed, Kevin said, "Can I ask a favor?"

"Another one.  How many videos have you watched?"

He squeezed my balls.  "Just lay here and let me do stuff to you."

I smiled.  "Sure."

I figured that he'd roll me over and fuck me until one of us couldn't take
it any longer.  He turned off the lights, lay down on me and began kissing
me.  I kissed him.  He licked and lightly bit down on my chin, then my ear
and neck, while rubbing my arms and shoulders.  He kissed my shoulders and
arms, licking and gently biting.  He sucked on my fingers.  My body
tingled.  My cock was engorged, as he lifted my arm and licked my pit.

He licked, sucked and bit on my nipples.  I moaned.  I began thrusting into
the air.  He did this all the way down to my feet, licking and biting my
toes and arches.  I could hardly stay still.  This was at the edge of being
erotic and ticklish.

He rolled me over and started upward.  As he made his way up, the
anticipation of him getting to my ass had me on the verge of shaking all
over.  But he skipped my ass and moved to my back, then to my shoulders and
neck.  He lay down on me.  We were both breathing hard.  His cock pressed
in the crack of my ass.

He moved, put his face to my ass, spread my cheeks and probed my hole with
his tongue and then his fingers.  "Fuck me, Kevin, please."

"Shhh."

He lay on me, moving his cock over my wet ass.  I arched my back, trying to
catch his cock in my hole.

"Lay still," he said.

I tried, but I wanted him so badly.  My body was on fire.  He kept moving
his cock over my ass.  He stopped and then very slowly slid into me.  He
was deep inside me but wasn't moving.  He lay, holding me.  Neither of us
moved for what seemed like an hour, but was probably just minutes.

He withdrew his cock from my ass and rolled me over.  He lay on me.  I put
my arms and legs around him.  "Please," I said.

He slid into me, slowly.  We held each other.  Again, he didn't move.  Then
he made a rocking motion.  His cock was deep inside of me, hardly moving
inside of me.  We kissed, held each other, moaned and kissed some more.  He
began to rock a bit faster, but still not thrusting.  His face was in the
nap of my next.  He was breathing hard.  I could feel his cock moving
inside of me.  I was so turned on, I wondered if I'd come.

Suddenly, he pressed down hard against me.  His body tensed and then shook.
I held him.  He had his mouth pressed against my ear.  The sound of his
breaths sent chills through my body.  "Fuck, Josh," he whispered, "you're
incredible."

He moved down on me and took my cock into his mouth.  I was so turned on
