Love ya both, always. === THE BOY'S WEEKEND === - On The Plane - "This should be fun. I hope there's stuff to do there though," Bryan said. He was going between hyper-excited and fear of boredom. "I know that there is satellite tv, a huge games room and a pool. You shouldn't be bored," Nicky said. He had talked a bit to Hassan to see what all there would be to do since he knew Bry boy could get bored easily. "I know, I know, I am such a kid and you have to entertain me. I'm sorry I just can't sit and talk and be smart and adult. Maybe in a few years I will be a better mate for you guys," Bryan said as he looked out the window. Shane and Nicky were shocked. They looked at each other and Nicky nodded at Shane to talk for them both. "Okay our lovely Bry boy. Two things. First, don't ever change. We fell in love with you as you are and you don't have to change or become something you aren't to make us love you. You are brilliant smart and you constantly remind us that there is more to life than business and serious stuff. That is why you are perfect for us, we are perfect for each other. We all have qualities that compliment each other and make us all strong," Shane said. "Yeah our boy. We love you as you are and wouldn't give you up for the world," Nicky said as he rubbed Bryan's leg. "Yeah?" Bryan asked. "Yeah," Shane smiled. "What's second?" Bryan asked. "You called yourself our mate. You should have felt my heart when you said that our boy. I thought it was going to pound out of my chest," Shane said and stopped as he began to get emotional. "It was wonderful our Bry boy. You didn't say boyfriend or lover or brother you said mate. We have all committed ourselves to each other but you are the first of us to make some sort of statement and put it in words. You are our mate. It's lovely and my heart just soared when you said it," Nicky stopped, now overcome himself with emotion. "Should we call each other husband?" Bryan asked excitedly as he took hold of both of his lover's hands. "Can we call each other our mates. I really like the sound of that, like soulmate," Nicky asked. Everyone nodded and Shane got up to sit in Bryan's lap with his legs across Nicky. They rode the rest of the flight this way, Shane returning to his seat only when it was announced they would be landing shortly. - Meeting the Prince - "Wow look at it," Bryan said as he gazed across the woods and lawns to the castle. "It looks even better at night. It's all lit up with spotlights. Come on the car is waiting," Nicky said as he pulled Bryan to the car where Shane was already getting in. The drive was short, as it had been before although now the estate was visible. It was beautiful, like a fairy tale. Horses ran freely across the fields as if wild. Finally after driving across the drawbridge into the cobbled courtyard the door to the limousine was opened. The three men stepped out and looked up to the massive doors of the castle as they opened. Out strode Hassan wearing his princely robes with his long hair free and flowing behind him. Following him was Alex in a pair of jeans and a silk shirt that was untucked. "Sadik!" Nicky yelled and went to grab the Prince in an embrace and hugged him fiercely. "Nicky Sadik. I am so happy to see you once again," Hassan said into Nicky's neck. Nicky pulled back a bit and kissed Hassan on the lips then hugged him again. He finally released Hassan and embraced Alex just as warmly. "Alex thanks so much for inviting us," Nicky said. "It is our pleasure," Alex said then in a whisper to Nicky, "Hassan has had some problems adjusting to our relationship I hope you can help." Nicky didn't have time to respond as Bryan and Shane had walked up to the gathering. "Hi I'm Shane," Shane said as he held his hand out to the Prince. The Prince looked at Shane's hand and looked stricken. Shane saw the look and immediately moved forward to hug the man. "I'm sorry. I wasn't sure where we stood with each other. I am very pleased to meet you," Shane said as he hugged the Prince and felt the man hug him back warmly. "For so long he was never allowed public displays of affection that now he is like a starving man and can never be touched enough," Alex said as he gazed adoringly at his man. "Then you and I will get along just fine. I am very touchy and love hugs and kisses. I'm Bryan," Bryan stepped forward and hugged Hassan tightly and kissed his neck. He breathed in deeply and as he released the Prince he let his hands run through the man's hair. "Nicky Love said your hair was beautiful and it is. It smells great and it feels so soft," Bryan said then reached down and took the Prince's hand in his. The Prince looked at his hand entwined with Bryan's with wonder and looked at Alex as if asking for permission. Alex smiled that adoring smile at the Prince and gave a slight nod. "Come into our home and be welcome my friends," the Prince said. The next hour or so was spent touring a small part of the castle and showing the boys to their room. - Plans - "Sadik why don't you show Bryan and Shane the game room and pool. I have some stuff from Rye that Alex needs to see then we can join you," Nicky said. It was actually true but it would also give Alex some time to talk about the Prince with Nicky. "Yes there is much to entertain ourselves with. Please accompany me?" the Prince asked. Hassan's almost formal way of speaking was very endearing and charming and brought smiles to both Shane and Bryan's faces. Bryan reached out and took Shane's hand. Hassan smiled at them and walked out of the room. Neither Bryan or Shane moved. Before Hassan could realize he had nobody following him Bryan turned to Alex and said, "We know what we need to do." Soon Hassan returned with an odd look on his face, a mixture of surprise and hurt and confusion. "Are you not coming?" Hassan asked quietly. "I think from now on, since the place is so big, that anywhere you take us you should hold one of our hands," Bryan said, sounding like a little kid but also managing to make it sound sweet. Hassan's face lit up like the full moon as he gently wrapped his fingers through Bryan's and led the unresisting pair out. "What did he mean when he said they know what to do?" Alex asked. "We talked about it earlier. I knew what a change this was going to be for him and that he would need some help with some things. I can see he enjoys to touch and be touched, but from your statement earlier I guess that the intimacy doesn't go much beyond holding hands?" Nicky asked. "We sleep in different rooms and I haven't even seen him naked yet," Alex wailed in despair. "Shhh, it's okay. We will help you. He has never been with a man before, I think he probably doesn't even understand all that it means. He just knows he loves you. But things are odd for you two. He is living with you but you are not a true couple yet. You have never courted him, never had time to discover each other and now you are thrown together by circumstance into a full blown relationship. You need to back up a bit and slow things down. But I promise by the end of the weekend you will be sleeping together, maybe not making love to each other, but you will be sleeping in each other's arms," Nicky said. "Oh thank you," Alex sobbed as he let Nicky comfort him, "I love him so much and I don't know what to do." "Tonight we are going to have a movie night. We will spend the night cuddling and touching. Tomorrow we can have a pool party with food and drinks and music. Tomorrow night you will get to see your man naked," Nicky smiled. "What?" Alex responded. "It's a rule we have amongst us. Pool time is naked time. Nothing sexual but we are very free and open. We often get hard but just ignore it. Between tonight and tomorrow we are going to break down the last of Hassan's barriers," Nicky chuckled. Alex's eyes opened wide and he nodded with a growing smile. He knew he had been right to ask the boys to come visit. - The Game Room - "Wow this is amazing," Shane said as he looked around the room. It was huge and was set up in three different areas. On the left side of the room was the games area. A couple of pool tables, some pinball machines, table tennis, and a bunch of video games. The right side of the room had many plush couches surrounding a big screen tv. A large bar separated the tv area so that it was much darker than the rest of the room. The middle of the room was obviously a dance area but it also had glass doors that led out to the pool. "Yes it is very enjoyable. We spend much of our evenings here listening to music and watching movies," Hassan said. "Hey maybe we could do a movie night," Bryan said, knowing full well that that was what was already planned. "We could do this tonight," Hassan said eagerly. The boys nodded and walked around the room a bit more, Bryan still holding Hassan's hand. At first the boys had almost felt guilty about manipulating this man like this, but Nicky had explained it was not really manipulation, just a crash course in gay love. They would all have their roles. Nicky would be the shoulder to cry on and the friend that Hassan could confide his fears to. Shane would be the one to take charge and direct things but also the one to comfort when emotions became too strong. Bryan would be the innocent who could initiate things without arousing fear. Although all three men knew that these roles were fluid and may change depending on the situation. "You have a lovely home. I hope we can visit lots," Bryan said bringing the Prince's hand to his lips and kissing them gently. Hassan's eyes widened in surprise but his face lit up, "Oh yes, you are welcome at any time. I love Nicky Sadik greatly and you are his own," The Prince's face changed once again to fear. This man's emotions were so confusing to him and so right on the edge it was a wonder he had not had a breakdown. Shane stepped forward and pulled the man to him gently. Bryan let go of Hassan's hand and went to the pool tables. "You are allowed to love Nicky you know Hassan. He is a beautiful man. I know that you know Nicky belongs to Bry boy and me but I want you to know that you hold a special place in his heart. Before we came here he told us how he loved you dearly and that he wanted to help you," Shane said, softly rubbing the small of Hassan's back comfortingly. "Help me?" Hassan asked. "He figured you were having a hard time adapting to things. Not being in your home, being in love for the first time, never having had sex with a man before. All these things he figured you needed help with. He asked Bryan and me to help him help you. Before the weekend is out you will be comfortable with yourself and your lover," Shane said. "I am very frightened. I love Alex deeply but I do not know how to be with a man and I am afraid I will not be what he desires," Hassan said and then hung his head, "I have not allowed him to see my nakedness and we sleep in separate rooms." "Shhh, that's okay. We promise by the end of the weekend you will be sleeping with your man in one bed and be comfortable with your body and his," Shane said. Hassan let out a deep shuddering sigh and let Shane hold him. Alex and Nicky walked in about then. Nicky held Alex back as he made to go to Hassan, seeing him in obvious distress. Instead they waited for the two men to part before letting themselves be known. "So are you going to feed us or do we have to go hunt for our food?" Nicky asked loudly. Hassan turned and blushed and stepped away from Shane but Shane did not allow it and pulled him in closely again. "I can get us some stuff from upstairs. I gave the servants the weekend off so we have to fend for ourselves," Alex said as he smiled at Hassan. "I'll help," Shane said and followed Alex out another set of doors. "Hey My Prince, come play with me," Bryan called out. Hassan blushed deeply but almost giggled as he went to play pool with Bryan. Nicky followed behind. - Feeding the Troops - "Thanks so much for what you are doing for us," Alex said almost immediately as he and Shane walked up the stairs and into a vast kitchen. "We want to do it. Nicky considers you both very good friends and of course we do too. How that man has not had a breakdown yet is beyond me. His emotions are so raw and on the edge," Shane said. "I know," Alex stopped cutting the bread and sighed. "Hey it's gonna be okay. We had the best teacher ever on how to share our love. Rye Angel is a one of a kind, but he taught us well and we will be able to help," Shane said as he placed a comforting arm around Alex's waist. Alex let his head fall onto Shane's shoulder. After a few minutes of silence Alex lifted his head and smiled at Shane warmly, "I will be saying thank you for the rest of my life to you three I think." Shane laughed and immediately explained his laughter, "We said the same thing to Rye. Eventually we decided that instead of saying thank you we would say I love you." Alex smiled, "I love you Shane. I love all of you." Shane nodded and kissed Alex on the cheek, "We love you too." "Now since Hassan doesn't like very many meats yet we are making veggie stuff. If you would get the lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers from the fridge please," Alex directed. Soon Alex and Shane were putting several large trays onto a dumb waiter then heading downstairs. "Okay food's ready," Alex said as he opened the door to the waiter and began to move trays to the tables in the game area. There were various sandwiches, fresh fruit, veggies and cheeses. "Wow this looks good. Okay feed me," Bryan giggled and dragged Hassan with him to sit on one of the couches in the area. "Shall we not get our food?" Hassan asked in confusion. "They'll get it for us," Bryan said simply. And he was right. Soon the other three men joined them with loaded plates. Bryan was on one end then Hassan then Alex with Nicky on the other end. Shane sat on the floor and leaned back onto Alex's lap. Bryan giggled and lay his head down in Hassan's lap. "Strawberry please," Bryan giggled and opened his mouth to take the strawberry from Nicky's fingers. "Cheese?" Shane offered to Alex who opened his eyes in surprise but leaned forward a bit to take the small piece of cheese offered to him. Bryan rolled a bit on Hassan's lap and took a piece of melon from Shane's plate then turned and offered it to Hassan. Hassan gently took the piece of fruit from Bryan. "It takes longer to eat this way but it's much more fun," Nicky said as he placed a small piece of sandwich in Shane's mouth. Alex took a piece of pear from his plate and offered it to Bryan. Bryan took it and gently held Alex's hands so that he could suck the sweet juice from his fingertips before releasing him. They continued to do this for some time, everyone feeding each other and taking turns licking or sucking gently on fingers. "That was very nice," Hassan said as Shane took the empty plates and set them on the table. "I...." Hassan began to cry softly and hid his face. Shane stood and reached out his hand for Alex and Bryan. They left Nicky behind with the sobbing Prince. "I don't know what is wrong with me. I have lost all control. I lay awake in bed, frightened to sleep in case when I wake up I am back in my palace. But I am also frightened to be here with Alex. But I love him and he loves me. I will begin to cry for no reason or become so sad at other times. I fear I am losing my mind," Hassan said after Nicky had brought him close and began to stroke his hair. "You're going to be fine. This is your home now and Alex loves you. You have friends who care deeply for you and love you. You have us here for the entire weekend and we are not going to leave you if you need us, or even if you don't. We are going to teach you how to cuddle and kiss and be naked. We are going to show you how to put the past behind you and be proud of your love and your lover and yourself," Nicky said. "You will show me how to be with Alex as a man?" Hassan asked. Nicky was surprised. They had not planned on teaching that part of things to Hassan but he could not refuse his friend. "We will see how far we get this weekend. If you are not ready by the time we have to leave, we will come back after tour is over. But we will judge if the time is right. Alex will wait for you to be ready, he loves you. Another week or two or six or however long it takes will not matter to him," Nicky said. "Thank you my Sadik, my true friend. I would be lost without you," Hassan said and began to weep again, letting Nicky rock him. He soon fell asleep in his friends arms. The other three men returned some time later to find Nicky still holding Hassan and gently rocking him. "Is he going to be alright?" Bryan asked with a bit of worry. "He will be fine. I think we came just in time though," Nicky said and gently roused Hassan. - Gold and Ice Cream - Everyone had spent the afternoon just resting for a couple of hours before they went down for supper. Shane had received a phone call from Matt and had spoken to Andy and had cleared up some trouble with Andy. Hassan was in the kitchen, again in his robes, preparing supper for everyone. "Hello My Prince," Bryan said as he came up behind Hassan and wrapped his arms around the man, kissing him on the neck. "Hello Byran Sadik, I hope you slept well?" Hassan asked as he leaned back into Bryan briefly before continuing to make the salad he was preparing. "Everything looks wonderful Sadik. Can we help with anything?" Nicky asked. "Alex is downstairs setting up a table out on the patio. If you could help me carry this salad please?" Hassan answered. "Sure. Oh shoot. Bry boy could you do that while I go get our surprise," Nicky said. "Sure Nicky Love," Bryan said as he kissed Nicky sweetly then went back to stand beside Hassan as he worked. Bryan talked quietly with Hassan and would every now and then touch Hassan somewhere. Every time Bryan did so Hassan would smile brightly. They all headed down to the patio and soon Nicky came in with a bottle of wine in his hand. "My gift to you My Sadik. There are four bottles. Three are from me and my boys the other is from Rye," Nicky held up a bottle of the Blanc D'or. Hassan's eyes opened wide and he fought a losing battle with the tears. Bryan took the plate he had been holding from his hand and hugged him then helped him sit. Bryan took Hassans's hand and put it in Alex's who squeezed it gently. Nicky poured the glasses and stood up, "To love and friendship. If you have those two things you can get through anything," Everyone touched glasses and drank. Hassan's eyes closed blissfully as he tasted the wine. He opened his eyes and saw Nicky's face hovering just in front of him, small flecks of gold dancing on his lips. "For you my friend," Nicky said then kissed him. Hassan then received kisses from the other boys and finally from Alex. Alex was in heaven. Hassan seemed so much better to him now. He had been very open before to touching and kissing but seemed even more so now. The meal finally finished and Bryan giggled loudly, jumped up and ran out of the room. "He has a surprise as well. We will go help him, while you two stay and relax," Shane smiled. The absolute love Shane had for Bryan was so obvious. - Still on the Patio - "You doing okay my love?" Alex asked of Hassan as he once again took Hassan's hand. "Yes. I am sorry I am not the man you deserve but I believe they will help me," Hassan said and would not look at Alex. "Hassan my Prince. You are the man I want and we will take as long as *YOU* need to get us where we want to be. I am not perfect my love, and neither are you. We are going to let those three wonderful men help us both. You are allowed to do anything you want or need to do to be comfortable and enjoy yourself. If you want to touch or kiss them then do it. If you want to sleep with them then do it. The only thing I ask is that you do not have sex with them, although I think that they would not allow that any way," Alex said. "I am trying so hard but have fears," Hassan began but Alex stopped him with a kiss. "Put all your fears and worries aside and let them guide us both. We already love each other we just need to back up and learn a few things. All I want you to do is relax and enjoy yourself and be free," Alex said. - Up in the Kitchen - Bryan was bouncing around making dessert. They had brought the stuff to make deep fried banana splits and he was now putting them together. "How is Hassan holding up really?" Shane asked Nicky as they watched Bryan bounce around. "He had a breakdown but he is going to be okay. I don't know if we had come later how things would have been. He has given himself, and Alex has given him, permission to be as loving with us all as he wants but he gets sudden bouts of guilt. Guilt because he wants and enjoys the intimacy but knows he can't give it to Alex like he wants to," Nicky said. "He is in good hands with you our love," Shane said. "He asked me if we would show him how to be with Alex as a man. I couldn't say no to him. I don't know if he will be ready but I said yes. I said that once we three decide he is ready to move forward we would help them be together. I hope that's okay. I didn't have time to ask and he was so fragile," Nicky said. "Of course Nicky Love. Whatever you think he needs. But just as teachers right? Like we won't be making love with them? I don't think I would even want to play the game with them. I like them as friends very much but it's not the same as Matt and Andy or Ed and Jay or the others, at least not yet it isn't," Bryan said. Nicky nodded, "If we go that far it will be as teachers. I think he needs to see the love as much as the actual act. I think that if they perhaps just watched us, that would be enough. Would that be okay?" Bryan turned and looked at Shane and nodded. Shane smiled, "Yes Nicky Love. It will be a little odd but we know how important it is to you so we will do it." "Thank you my boys. I love you and this does mean a lot to me," Nicky kissed Shane then moved to kiss Bryan. Finally the decadent desserts were ready and they all trooped down to the patio with the desserts in hand. "Sweets!" Bryan said with a giggle as he handed the dessert to Alex. Alex and Hassan dug in and moaned with pleasure at the sweet dessert. After a few minutes Bryan began to get sexy and put a swipe of chocolate sauce on Nicky's cheek. Shane smiled happily and leaned over to lick it off. When he was finished Shane took a swipe of chocolate sauce and smeared it on Nicky's other cheek which Bryan quickly and eagerly began to lick off. The boys turned with a smile at Hassan's throaty moan as they watched Alex put a swipe of chocolate onto Hassan's neck then lean in to lick it off. Nicky moved to sit next to Hassan, "Does that feel good my Sadik? You're allowed to feel pleasure you know. Does your man's tongue feel good on you?" Nicky was whispering softly into Hassan's ear. Hassan nodded and tilted his head back. Nicky took some of the cold ice cream and placed some on Hassan's neck. Alex smiled and licked the ice cream away. Nicky did it again but held Alex back and let the ice cream melt just slightly so it began to dribble down onto Hassan's chest. Alex then leaned forward and opened Hassan's robe a bit to lick the ice cream away. "Who's ready for movies?" Shane asked when Alex was finished. Hassan opened his eyes and he looked like he was in a trance. "Okay everyone up to get changed. Everyone is in boxers or pajama bottoms. No tops no socks," Bryan said. Nicky nudged Hassan to get him moving. "We brought all kinds of junk food to share but maybe we could have some more fruit and stuff too?" Shane suggested and looked at Alex who nodded. Alex also had a blissful smile on his face. He had seen that Hassan had an obvious erection and that had made him deliriously happy. He had been able to arouse his lover. - Cuddle Me - A knock on the boys door brought Nicky to the door. It was Hassan. "Sadik I do not have appropriate clothes as you said. I sleep in a robe and I do not have underwear as you want me to wear," Hassan said looking shy. "No problem. Would you be more comfortable in a pair of sleep pants like these," Nicky stepped back and showed his attire, "Or boxers like Bry boy and Shane are wearing?" Hassan looked at the men and blushed, "I would like very much to wear boxers as Bryan Sadik and Shane Sadik wear. Why do you not wear them?" "I'll change and we can all wear boxers," Nicky went and grabbed a pair of Bryan's boxers since he figured they would fit best. He walked back and handed them to Hassan. "This opening here with the buttons goes at the front," Nicky whispered. Hassan blushed again and nodded, "Thank you. I do not want to embarrass myself." Nicky brushed his hand across Hassan's cheek. "You are such a beautiful sweet gentle man My Sadik. I will never be embarrassed by you, only proud to be called your Sadik." "All of us feel the same My Prince. Now go change and meet us down there," Bryan said. They watched as Hassan almost skipped back to his room holding the boxers in his hands like they were a gift from the Gods. "Damn I wish we could take him shopping," Bryan said. Shane and Nicky turned to Bryan and opened their mouths in surprise. "What?" Bryan asked. "Oh our Bry boy what a great idea. I wonder if it's safe to take him out?" Shane said. "I'll go talk to Alex and ask him and also make sure he is in boxer's like the rest of us," Nicky said as he hopped around on the floor putting boxers on. He walked to Alex's door and it opened to reveal Alex in pajama bottoms. "Hey Alex. You should change into boxers, that is what the rest of us are wearing," Nicky strode in and sat on the bed. "Hassan doesn't own boxers so I wanted to make him comfortable," Alex said. "He came and borrowed some of Bry Boy's. Actually he doesn't have much of anything that the rest of us wear. He still wears his robes and stuff. We were wondering if it would be safe to take him somewhere and do some shopping?" Nicky asked. He watched as Alex's tight and toned body moved to a set of drawers and took out some boxers. He slipped his pants off and pulled the boxers on without any regard that Nicky was watching him. "I'm not sure. I suppose if he wore jeans and regular stuff but his hair would be such a giveaway. If we went into the town nearby there is not really a lot to see or do. They have a Wal-mart but I don't want to dress him in Wal-mart clothes," Alex said as he sat beside Nicky on the bed. "Well he can wear Bryan's clothes. We can take Rye's jet to wherever we want to go. His hair though is a problem. Do you think he would cut it?" Nicky asked as he took Alex's hand and held it. "I think he wants to but is scared. It is sort of a part of who he was that he wants to get rid of but wants to keep as well," Alex said. Just then the door opened and Hassan ran in and twirled around, "Look at the beautiful gift Bryan Sadik gave me. Are they not truly wonderful?" Nicky couldn't help but smile and saw the smiles on Bryan and Shane's faces as they stood in the doorway. "They are beautiful my love," Alex smiled brightly as Hassan tossed himself onto the bed beside Alex and lay down. This was the first time Hassan had ever been in his room let alone on the bed. And here he was lying back on the bed in just his boxers. "Easy," Nicky said softly and put a hand on Alex's shoulder. He felt Alex shudder as he had to visibly restrain himself from laying down on top of his man. "Nicky has a question for you my love," Alex said. Hassan sat up and looked at Nicky. "Our Bry boy thought it would be fun to take you shopping, buy you some clothes that would be more comfortable," Nicky said. "It would be so fun," Bryan said as he sat down in front of Hassan and took his feet into his lap and stroked them softly. "We would just need to disguise ourselves. The biggest problem is going to be your hair Hassan," Shane said as he sat in front of Alex and pulled his feet to him. "We could cut it. I have been unsure as to what to do with it. It is a part of my old life and though I want to move forward it is hard to do so," Hassan said. "I can cut your hair for you My Prince. I used to cut my older sister's hair when I was younger. I mean I can cut it so it looks decent and then get you to a hair stylist to make it look good," Bryan offered. Hassan smiled and nodded, "Yes please then we can go shopping for new clothes and many pairs of boxers." Everyone chuckled and Alex stood taking Hassan's hand in his and led the group down to the kitchen where snacks were prepared. Besides the fruit that Hassan cut up for them all, there was chocolate covered cashews, licorice, popcorn, and soda's. Everyone trooped down and were soon standing around the tv area. "Okay. Now the rules for tonight are nobody with their own lover. Since there are three of us that doesn't really work but whichever one of you is with us will be in the middle. So for the first little bit let's have Bryan and Sadik. Alex get's to cuddle with me and Boyo for the first movie," Nicky said. This had been decided earlier as well. Bryan was going to be very free in touching and cuddling with the Prince to get him to relax and accept the touches. Everyone became comfortable. Shane and Nicky placed Alex between them. Shane sat sideways at the end of the couch and spread his legs with Alex in between them lying back on his chest. Nicky pulled Alex's legs onto his lap. "Remember everyone, if you feel uncomfortable you are allowed and in fact expected to say stop. Tonight is about giving pleasure and love to your friends. You are allowed to get hard. Nothing about tonight is supposed to be sexual but it is very loving and sometimes our dicks can't tell the difference," Shane said. Everyone pretended to be looking at something else as Bryan and Hassan settled. Hassan was obviously nervous. Finally they chose the position that Shane had taken. Bryan sat sideways at the end of another sofa with his legs spread. Hassan sat between them and leaned back against Bryan. Shane started the movie. Nicky gently stroked Alex's legs. Alex had very well defined calves and Nicky mused that Alex must work out a lot. His legs were hairy and masculine and reminded Nicky of Mark's legs. He looked up at Shane who was rubbing small circles on Alex's belly. Alex's eyes were closed and Nicky saw a tear fall. He smiled softly. This was as much for Alex as it was for Hassan. Nicky turned and looked at Bryan and Hassan. Bryan's one leg was wrapped around one of Hassan's and his foot was rubbing Hassan's calf. Both of Bryan's hands were touching Hassan, one on his chest one on his belly. Hassan also had his eyes closed and his hands were covering Bryan's. "Let's watch the movie guys," Shane said softly bringing the two men out of their bliss. Everyone turned to watch the screen. The boys had brought the gay movies that they enjoyed. This was Get Real. The movie progressed with much touching and nuzzling and kissing. Nothing went beyond what it was supposed to and they all actually watched the movie. It was finally over and everyone sat up and stretched. Everyone with obvious erections. "I am sorry I am erect," Hassan blushed, not noticing that everyone else was also hard. "Hey tall, dark and handsome. In case you haven't noticed we are all hard," Bryan joked and actually stretched his boxers to make his erection very noticeable. "Truly? All of us are like this?" Hassan looked around and saw it was true. "Okay let's refill snacks, get some more soda's and switch partners," Shane said. Soon everyone was back and getting into position. Nicky moved Hassan to the end of the couch and sat between his legs. Shane gently placed Nicky's legs in his lap then leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss on the top of Nicky's foot. Bryan started the second movie, A Beautiful Thing. Bryan and Alex had moved to one of the plush chairs. Alex sat normally while Bryan sat sideways, his legs across Alex and his head laid against Alex's shoulder. Alex had one arm around Bryan's back and the other hand on his leg while Bryan played with Alex's chest. When the movie was over everyone stood and stretched again. "Want another movie or want to go to bed?" Shane asked with a yawn. "Bed I think for me," Nicky said. "Me too," Alex said. "Bryan Sadik, do you think you could cut my hair tonight? We can then leave early tomorrow to buy me boxers," Hassan asked. Bryan smiled sweetly and hugged Hassan to him. While Bryan was holding him Alex came over and kissed Hassan on the mouth. "Goodnight my love. This was a lovely evening and they are helping us so much. Do you realize tonight you were almost naked in front of us all, you showed us all your erection in your boxers, you kissed and touched all of us, and you were in our bedroom and lay down on our bed," Alex said. "You said our bedroom and our bed?" Hassan asked quietly. "It has always been ours and is only waiting for you to be ready," Alex said and kissed Hassan again then leaned down and kissed one of his dark nipples. He waved good night and was followed up the stairs by Shane and Nicky who said their good nights as well. - Open and Honest - Bryan took Hassan's hand and they went to Hassan's bathroom. Hassan showed Bryan the brushes and hair supplies he had. He opened a drawer and pulled out several scissors. "We are just going to do a simple trim so it won't take too long," Bryan said then looked away and blushed. "What is it Bryan Sadik?" Hassan asked. "I'll be right back," Bryan said and ran out of the bathroom leaving a very confused Hassan in the bathroom. Soon though he was back, breathing a little heavy as he seemed to have run the entire time. "After I cut your hair, could I wash your hair?" Bryan asked with a blush. "You wish to wash my hair?" Hassan asked with surprise. "No never mind, it's okay. I'll cut your hair now. Do you have an elastic?" Bryan said as he began to root around in the drawers. "Bryan Sadik, it would please me to have you wash my hair. I think I must ask Alex if he would permit this though," Hassan said. "I did, he said yes and even said we could be naked," Bryan said. Hassan smiled. The fears he had had for so long about being naked had vanished. Something about these friends was healing him. He knew that what they told him would be true, by the end of the weekend he would be lying in bed with his love. Bryan sat Hassan down and began to brush his hair. It was very soft and silky and it smelled wonderful. "Do you have questions for me My Prince?" Bryan asked. "Questions?" Hassan replied. "We can talk about anything you want to. You can ask me questions about sex. What I like to do or have done to me. How to do things. Tell me about things you are scared of. Tell me about how you want your relationship with Alex to develop," Bryan said. "You would answer me?" Hassan asked. "Yep. You can ask anything no matter how personal and I will answer you," Bryan said. "Well that question about what you like to do and have done to you. It will let me know things I can do for Alex and what I might like done to me," Hassan said. "Well any time my boys touch me is wonderful and of course the thing I enjoy the most other than just holding them cuz that is the most special, is having them inside me making love to me," Bryan said. "Does this not hurt terribly?" Hassan asked. "No not at all. First you use an enema to clean yourself out so it isn't messy. Then your lover uses his fingers to relax and open you up. Then very slowly he enters you, stopping if there is any pain until he is inside of you. The first few times there may be some slight pain at first but the pleasure afterwards is worth it. Now, there is no pain at all unless we do it too fast or don't use enough lube," Bryan said. "And it is not unmanly to have your lover inside you, to be his woman?" Hassan asked. "I don't think so. But all three of us take turns any ways. You can't really think of it as a man and a woman. It's your lover, the person you love, and they are giving you great pleasure and you are giving them pleasure as well," Bryan said. Hassan was quiet for awhile letting Bryan brush his hair. "I think I desire greatly to be Alex's woman but I also desire for him to be mine," Hassan said. "That's cool. Believe me it is the most wonderful thing ever. You can feel your lover's heart beat when he is inside you and there is this connection between you that connects you spiritually," Bryan said. "You speak of it so beautifully," Hassan said, closing his eyes as he relaxed under the gentle touches of Bryan's hands. "It is beautiful. Maybe the most beautiful thing you can experience. We will show you before we leave. We decided that you both can watch us make love one night. That way you can see how it's done, how to prepare your lover, the different ways to give and receive pleasure, all of it," Bryan said. Hassan turned and looked at Bryan in shock, "You will make love while we watch?" "Yes. We decided," Bryan said. "This is so intimate, what if we embarrass ourselves?" Hassan asked. "It won't be embarrassing. It will be beautiful," Bryan said. "Tell me of other things to give pleasure. How does Nicky Sadik like to receive pleasure?" Hassan asked. "Nicky Love really likes it when I kiss and suck on his toes. I never thought feet were sexy before, but when they belong to your lover they are. We always make sure we clean ourselves and shower before we make love, so his feet are clean. I lick up the underside of his foot and then kiss each toe and then suck each toe. It drives him wild and I feel so much love for him when I do it," Bryan related. "I like Alex's legs, they are very strong and his feet are strong as well. Do you think he would like me to do this to him?" Hassan asked. "He might. Part of building a relationship is talking to each other though. So you could try it and then ask him. If he likes it he will tell you, if he doesn't then you can stop. But it has to be something you enjoy as well. Some people would be grossed out by it. If you don't think you would like doing it then don't," Bryan said. "I don't know if I would or not but I know that his legs and feet arouse me. Sometimes he walks around in jeans and wears no shoes or socks. It is very erotic," Hassan admitted. "Well you can try it then. Now Shane Boyo I just found out something about him that he really enjoys. He is very sensitive on the left side of his neck. So I like to lick and bite him there," Bryan said. "You bite him?" Hassan sounded alarmed. "Not hard, just a love bite. Like this," Bryan said and placed a small bite on Hassan's neck. "That was quite nice," Hassan said with a shiver. "Now I told you already that I like to have them inside me but really anything to do with my ass will drive me wild. They usually spend a lot of time pleasuring my bum with their hands or mouth or cock," Bryan said as he put an elastic around Hassan's hair. "Mouth?" Hassan gulped. "It's called rimming. Remember that we are completely clean so we don't have to worry about a bad smell or taste. You use your mouth and tongue to touch and caress the hole. It can be very sensitive and they can often make me cum without touching my cock at all or without even entering me," Bryan said. "This is something that I do not think I can do," Hassan said. "That's fine, you don't have to. Remember talk to your partner. Never do something that the makes you or him uncomfortable. Many gay couples don't even have anal sex," Bryan said. "It is pleasureable though, rimming?" Hassan asked. "Very," Bryan said as he began to cut just below the elastic, taking about three quarters of Hassan's hair off. "You talk of it and it does not sound nasty, but it makes me erect. Perhaps this is something I could learn to do. I greatly desire to take his manhood into my mouth. I dream of this often," Hassan said. "Yeah that is awesome too. Sometimes that's all we do, just taste each other. Shane really enjoys it. Nicky and I will strip him and taste every inch of his body. We start with him on his belly and beginning at his feet we move up to his back then we turn him over and start again at his feet and move up slowly but pass by his balls and cock. Then once we have finished him from head to toe we move down and share his cock until he cums and we taste him. It's great," Bryan said. "Yes this is what I desire to do. I want to worship his body and taste his seed," Hassan said thickly. "Okay well that's all I am going to do. The stylist can fix the rest of it. Let's get in the shower so I can wash your hair," Bryan said. "I am very embarrassed. I am very erect and there is much liquid leaking," Hassan said as he placed his hands in his lap. "Yeah me too. It's okay. They all said it was okay if we jerked off together if we needed to. Only ourselves not each other," Bryan said as he shucked his boxers and stood there hard and naked in front of Hassan. Hassan looked sideways at Bryan and blushed deeply. "It's okay to look at it. Have you ever seen another man's hard cock before?" Bryan asked. "No," Hassan said. "You have permission to look and even to touch, only to learn not to make me cum. You have my permission and my boy's permission and even Alex's permission," Bryan encouraged. Hassan turned around fully and looked at another cock for the first time in his life. He looked at it from both sides and then reached out a tentative hand and touched it with his fingers. Bryan stood there and let the man explore his cock and balls. "Thank you Bryan Sadik," Hassan said and stood then tilted his head, "How do you know what to do for me? How to make me get over my unclear thoughts?" "Nicky and Shane went through some of this as well. Nicky wasn't sure he was gay for a long time and Shane was raped by a man when he was just a boy so he had some stuff to get over as well. You have a lot of the same feelings and problems that they both did," Bryan said. Bryan was shocked at the sudden change in the Prince. His face became enraged and turned dark red. "Someone touched Shane Sadik badly? He was only a child? Has this man been punished?" Hassan asked, barely controlling his fury. Bryan was actually scared but gulped and moved forward to hug Hassan to him, uncaring that he was naked. "It's okay My Prince. He has passed over it now. Angel helped him and now he has Nicky and me. It was a long time ago and the man was a stranger so he wasn't punished no. But the love Shane has from his friends and his mates has healed him," Bryan said feeling the man shake underneath his arms. It took several minutes before Hassan had calmed. "In my old country a man that did this would be castrated and left to die slowly," Hassan said. "Believe me that's what I wanted to do. But I couldn't so I focused on loving and healing Boyo," Bryan said. Bryan moved and began the water running. In the tense situation he had lost his erection. "You are soft now. May I see you again as you are soft?" Hassan asked suddenly. Bryan smiled and nodded. Hassan knelt down and touched Bryan again and watched with fascination as Bryan filled out again and became fully erect. "I do not think you should touch me. I fear I will ejaculate should you do so," Hassan said. "I don't need to. Remember this is for you to learn another man's body," Bryan said and stepped into the shower holding out his hand to the Prince. Hassan lowered his boxers and stepped into the shower. "I won't touch it but may I look at it?" Bryan asked. When Hassan nodded Bryan knelt and looked at the man's very hard cock. It jumped every now and then with barely controlled excitement. It was about 6 inches long but very thick. "You have a beautiful cock My Prince. When you make love to Alex you will have to spend extra time to prepare him because of your size," Bryan said. "But I am quite small, not nearly as large as you," Hassan said. "Actually you are probably above average. I am long but not nearly as thick. If you think about what you will be doing you will see that it is not the length that matters but the thickness. And you have a curve in it like Shane. Let me tell you that Nicky's cock inside me feels great but Shane's is incredible. The thickness and his curve hit all the right spots," Bryan said. "Am I satisfactory do you think? Will Alex be pleased?" Hassan asked. "Of course. You are beautiful to look at. Your skin is such a wonderful color. You have such large nipples that react so nicely. See how they stand out like that? Your legs are muscular and your cock is going to drive him wild," Bryan said. "So I am pleasing to look at? What about my bum? Do you think it will please him?" Hassan asked as he turned around. "It is very nice. You are the same color all over so that is nice and your bum is very firm and shapely. He will be very pleased," Bryan said. "I am glad," Hassan said as he handed Bryan the shampoo. "Does Alex please you? You talk as if you only care if you please him. It is very important that your relationship be equal," Bryan said. "He pleases me greatly. I am very lucky," Hassan said and Bryan heard the truth and the deep love in Hassan's voice. Bryan spent the next 15 minutes or so washing Hassan's hair thoroughly and massaging his scalp. When he was finished he moved Hassan under the spray to rinse the shampoo out. "Before we go to bed I want you to do something for me My Prince," Bryan said. "Yes of course," Hassan nodded. "I want you to stand in front of me and think about Alex. Think about all the ways you want to give him pleasure and all the ways you want to receive pleasure from him. I want you to pleasure yourself while you are doing it and I want you to cum," Bryan said. Hassan blushed deeply. "It's okay we have permission remember. I want you to see that it is a beautiful thing and a natural thing to do. You are allowed to get pleasure from thinking about a man, and you are allowed to get pleasure from being with a man," Bryan said. Hassan nodded and began to move his hands over his soft penis. After a few minutes he had still not become hard and he stopped. "I cannot. I am very embarrassed," Hassan said. "Watch me and listen to me," Bryan said as he began to stroke his own cock. "Think of your lover's hands caressing your body. They are warm and soft, and everywhere they touch you your skin tingles. He moves his hands lower and touches your cock, beginning to stroke it." Hassan's hands moved and took his cock in his hand as he stared at Bryan's erection. "He begins to place kisses on your body. Your lips, your neck, your shoulders, your nipples. He moves down your body placing kisses every few inches. He stops and you can feel his hot breath on your cock," Bryan continued Hassan closed his eyes as he began to think of Alex doing these things to him. His cock had now become hard in his hands. "His tongue flicks out and touches the head of your cock sending little jolts of electricity through you. You arch your back and hope for more. Your wish is answered almost immediately as his hot mouth envelops your cock," Bryan continued. Hassan was breathing heavy now. "You are almost there when he pulls off of you and then you feel his hot cum splash against your belly and it sends you over the edge," Bryan said and let his cum shoot all over Hassan. Hassan's eyes opened wide as he flung his head back and let out a moan. His cum shot out and covered Bryan's chest and belly. Bryan stepped forward and held the man so that he would not fall as his cock released strongly. It was several minutes before Hassan was able to stand on his own. "That was wonderful My Prince," Bryan said as he began to clean them both off. Hassan said nothing but let himself be cleaned. When Bryan was finished they stepped out and Bryan dried them both. "Do you think that Alex would allow me to sleep in his bed?" Hassan asked quietly Bryan was surprised but he saw that Hassan really meant it. "I know he would. Remember what he said earlier? It is not his bed My Prince, it belongs to you both and he is just waiting for you to be ready to share it," Bryan said. Hassan nodded. Bryan led a naked Hassan through the halls to Alex's room and knocked. After hearing Alex respond he pulled the naked man in behind him and they both stood at the end of the bed looking at a very surprised Alex. "My Prince would like to sleep in his bed tonight. He would like to hold you in his arms and be caressed while he falls asleep. He knows that you will not do anything to him until he is ready and that he can ask you to stop and you will. He knows that if he asks you to stop you will not be mad or upset but you will continue to love and respect him. He knows he is allowed to ask questions of you and ask for you to explore things with him at his own pace. He would like you to be naked in his arms tonight. Are those things you understand and accept Alex?" Bryan asked. Alex nodded and swallowed before answering, "I will do anything he asks me to do. I know he needs to go at his own pace and I love him and respect him to allow him to do so. I want to hold him so badly that my body aches to feel his touch. Please Hassan, will you be with me tonight?" Bryan smiled and moved to the side of the bed and pulled back the covers. He realized that Alex was already naked. He turned and gave Hassan a kiss on the lips and gently turned him around and lowered him to the bed. He looked at Alex who pulled Hassan down into the bed then lay a loving arm across him and lay his head on Hassan's chest. "Remember, this is what you both want. Goodnight Alex. Goodnight My Prince," Bryan smiled and left the room, turning off the light as he left. He almost flew back to his room to tell the others about what had happened. They were going to be alright. Alex and Hassan were going to be just fine. - Farewell My Prince - The next few days saw the last of Hassan's fears disappear and the passionate lover emerge. The Prince had woken the boys up very early the next morning to tell them of his wonderful night sleeping in his lover's arms. He had burst into their room naked and lay down between Bryan and Nicky. He had excitedly told them how he had woken early and asked Alex if he could look at him and touch him. He had pleasured Alex with his hands and made him cum and had finally been able to taste Alex's cum. Then he had allowed Alex to do the same for him. If it hadn't been that the boys knew how big a step this was for him and how much it meant to him they would have had to laugh at him. He was like a little kid describing in great detail his latest toy. They had all left for shopping and spent the day going from store to store to buy Hassan new clothes. Alex paid for everything but the boys all bought him special gifts. Nicky bought him 6 pairs of silk boxers which had almost brought tears to Hassan's eyes. Shane bought him a pair of low-rise jeans and a pair of sneakers. Bryan's gift though was a real surprise. He had gone with Hassan to get his hair cut and then had taken him to get a piercing. He had told Hassan how sexy Rye was with his nipples pierced and how they became very sensitive and Hassan was very eager. So once they were all back at the castle Hassan revealed his gift from Bryan. Alex was beside himself with delight as he took in the sight of the golden hoops through his lover's nipples. Bryan's constant giggling clued the boy's in that something was going on and he finally revealed that he had gotten his nipples pierced as well. That night the boys made long, slow, tender love to each other while Hassan and Alex watched. It was a learning experience for Hassan and when it was over he cried and held each of the boy's and thanked them many times. He and Alex went back to their bedroom and jerked each other off while telling each other of their love for one another. Finally the weekend was over and the boys were packed and standing beside the limo. "Thank you all for coming. You have no idea what it means to us both that you were here," Alex said. "You truly saved me and my love. This is a debt I can never repay," Hassan said. He was wearing the jeans Shane had bought him and a silk shirt that Alex had purchased. And of course, underneath, he wore the boxers that Nicky had bought for him. "My Prince. Amongst friends there is never talk of debt. Only love," Bryan said and took the man into his arms, "I'm gonna miss you. We will have to get together regularly after tour." The men all exchanged hugs and kisses and made arrangements to meet again soon. All the men shed tears at their parting. Finally the goodbyes were done and the boys were on their way back to the tour. "Do you think that one day those two will share with us. I mean like Matt and Andy and Ed and Jay?" Bryan asked. "At first I didn't think so. They were just friends and there was nothing else there. But now I think that maybe it will be that way. I think once they are truly together as a couple that they will join us," Shane said. "Really? I am so glad you feel that way. I feel so much love for Sadik and for Alex now as well. I was hoping that once they were comfortable that we could invite them to be with us," Nicky said. Bryan giggled and the other two looked at him with questions in their eyes. "Just thinking of the morning My Prince came in naked to tell us about the two jerking off together. It was just so cute," Bryan giggled again. Everyone else smiled and giggled as well. This soon got out of control and all three men were rolling around on the floor tickling each other and kissing and just playing. Eventually they all fell asleep in a pile on the floor as the jet whisked them back to the last week of tour. === JILL AND KIAN'S WEEKEND === - On the Plane - "Nervous?" Jill asked as she held Kian's hand. "I wasn't at first but now all those horrible stories Rye told me are coming back to me. I don't like practical jokes," Kian admitted. "I know my love. And I will punish Rye appropriately for doing that to you. But remember all the other stuff he told you. My family is very very loving," Jill said. Yes Rye would pay for this she thought to herself. "I just hope they like me," Kian said. His nerves were beginning to fray and he went between wanting to scream and wanting to cry he was so nervous. Jill smiled and just held his hand tightly. For now it was all she could do. - A Joke To End It All - The pair descended and saw someone wave to them from a nearby car. "There's Eric," Jill said excitedly. The couple walked to the man and Kian got nervous as he saw no smile or welcome on the man's face. "Eric!" Jill said as she threw her arms around him. When he didn't return the hug she stepped back. "Jill," He said stoically, "So this is the guy you're bringing home? Some guy in a boyband?" Jill's mouth opened wide and Kian blanched. Then Kian turned and walked away, toward the jet. "Kian wait, Kian," he heard Jill call behind him. He felt her come up beside him but he didn't stop walking. "I love you Jill, I do, but I don't want to go someplace where I am going to be treated like that," Kian said, tears now truly filling his eyes. "He was joking. They mean to give you a hard time and see if you pass the test. They just started before I could tell them not to and their first joke was very cruel," Jill said and began to worry when Kian did not stop walking. "You love me, that should be enough for them. They have no right to test me or judge me," Kian said still walking. "Kian please," Jill begged and Kian finally stopped, "Please. Just come with me. Let me talk to them first so they know, give me and them a chance, please." Kian finally turned and Jill clearly saw his tears. "You and Rye accepted me and loved me, and me and the boys accepted you and loved you. Why would they do this? What's wrong with them?" Kian asked. In other circumstances these words would have rankled Jill, that something was wrong with her family, but at this point she was so devastated by the hurt Kian was feeling she competely understood his feelings. "Please my love. One more chance. We won't even unpack until you are convinced and I will tell the pilot to stay here on standby for the rest of the day okay?" Jill pleaded. Kian looked at Jill and back at the plane. All he wanted to do was take Jill and get back on that plane and back to his friends who loved him. He finally sighed and nodded in defeat. Jill's heart nearly broke as she realized how upset he truly was. She ran to the plane and talked to the pilot then came back to Kian who hadn't moved from the spot. She took his hand and led him back to the car and a very shaken Eric. "Sis I'm so..." Eric began. "Fuck off Eric. I don't want to hear your voice for a good long time right now. Take us home," Jill said as she got into the car in the back seat with Kian. Eric shivered at the tone of Jill's voice and knew he had fucked up royally. It was the first time he had ever thought that Jill might actually hate him. The ride to the house was short which was good because the tension in the car was palpable. Nobody said a thing. Kian stared out the window the whole time, Jill holding his hand. Jill tried to keep her anger in check but inside was seething with rage at her family. They finally pulled up to the house and Eric shut off the car. "You in the house," Jill ordered Eric who immediately complied. "Kian Sweets. I am going inside to talk to my family. Just please stay here for a bit. I will come out to get you shortly or I will come out and we can go back okay?" Jill asked and Kian nodded but still did not look at her. Jill walked into her home and was immediately surrounded by her family. There was her mother and father, her two other brothers Sam and Jason and Jason's wife Eleanor, along with Jill's three sisters, Mary, Beth and Candace. "What happened. Eric came in and burst into tears and said he messed up," Jill's mom asked. "Everyone in the living room. Now," Jill said and even her mother blanched at her tone. Eric was sitting on the couch his head in his hands. "I don't know what you were thinking Eric. You have no idea how much you hurt him. He wanted to leave and never come back and the only thing that stopped me, the only thing, was that I knew that he would feel guilty about taking me away from my family. Right now it's all I can do to not hit you. Kian is one of the most loving men I have ever met. His friends in Westlife are incredibly caring and wonderful men. Rye and I spent the last few days telling him about how loving you all were and you pull this. So if we are to stay and if you all are going to be a part of my and Kian's life there will be some rules. First there will be no teasing, pranks or any derogatory remarks about his job. It is not your place to test the man I love to see if he meets your approval. Right now you are here to earn his approval and earn back mine. Second he is not to be made uncomfortable at all. You are not to tiptoe around him but you are to include him. I realize that will be hard since you are going to be on your best behaviour but he is not to think any of this is his fault since it isn't. And finally, Kian and I will be staying together. There will be none of this separating us because we aren't married crap. We have already been together many times and right now he does not need to be separated and made to think you don't approve of our relationship. If everyone can agree to this I will go and bring in the man that I love," Jill finished and looked around at the shocked faces of her family. Before anyone could answer they heard the door open and a small voice call out, "Mom, Auntie Jill, I found a man in the car and he was crying. I brought him in cuz I think he is sick." It was Daniel, Jill's only nephew, a 6 year old little dear that could charm the birds from the trees as was evident by the bemused, look on Kian's tear streaked face as he was dragged into the living room. "Hi Daniel. That's Kian. He's my boyfriend," Jill smiled sweetly at the small boy. Daniel turned and looked at the man whose hand he was still holding, "Hi Keen. You don't have to cwy now we found Jill," Everyone smiled at the small boy and Kian nodded and wiped his face. Jill went and picked up the small boy and held him. "Want to show me and Kian where we are sleeping?" Jill asked. "You are in your bedwoom and Keen is in the tv woom," Daniel explained. "Actually, I decided that Kian and I will stay in my room. Why don't you show him where that is okay?" Jill said happily and the little boy held out his arms for Kian to take him. "Okay. That way Keen," Daniel directed, pointing the direction he wanted Kian to take him. When they were out of sight Jill turned a look on her family, "The tv room? In the basement?" "Just for one night. It was a joke," Jason said lamely. "Your jokes have almost cost you a sister and a new brother and the wonderful family he brings with him. Make no mistake, I love you all but if I ever have to make a choice, Kian will win every time. Every time," Jill said and began to walk out to get the bags. "Jill. I'm sorry. Please don't hate me," Eric said with deep emotion. "I don't hate you Eric. I still love you as my brother. I just don't like you very much right now," Jill said with her back still turned, then went out to the car. - In the Living Room Briefly - "Wow. I don't think I have ever seen her so pissed off," Candace said. "You gonna be okay honey?" Irene, Jill's mother, asked of Eric. "Oh mom you should have seen it. He was crushed. We shouldn't have done it," Eric said. "Now now. How were we to know? It's just the way we are. Rye was okay with it and she didn't warn us not to joke. Let's just move on. Don't worry son Jill will come around," Leon, Jill's dad, said although inside he was feeling very upset at how he and his family had hurt Jill and Kian. "Do you think he will forgive us?" Eric asked hopefully. "I am sure he will. He is obviously a deeply emotional man and I think he will see and understand what happened," Irene said. Everyone stopped talking as Jill entered and went upstairs with their bags, not even looking into the living room at them. - Unca Keen - "This is Jill's woom. She's a girl," Daniel said as Kian set him down on the frilly bed. Kian had to smile. He knew what Daniel meant though, this was obviously a girl's room. "Yes she is. But that's okay I don't mind," Kian said. "Are you and Jill mawwied?" Daniel asked. "Not yet, but someday. We love each other very much so it's just like being married though," Kian answered truthfully. "Do you kiss and stuff?" Daniel asked. "Sure. It's not as yucky when you get older," Kian said and chuckled at Daniel's wrinkled up nose. "So are you Unca Keen?" Daniel asked. "If you want me to be," Kian agreed. "I know you you know," Daniel said and Kian raised an eyebrow. "Really?" Daniel stood up on the bed and began to sing, 'Bop bop baby bop bop baby bop bop baby" Kian burst out laughing and hugged the little boy to him, "That's right." "Are Westboys here?" Daniel asked. "No the rest of the boys went off to see their friends and family for the weekend. But you will get to meet them soon. Do you know their names?" Kian asked sitting on the bed and pulling the boy to his lap. Daniel loved being held and curled up into Kian. "Mark (it came out Mawk), Shane (Sane), Nicky (he got that one right) and Bryan (Bwyan)," Daniel listed. "That's right," Kian said. "Do you know Unca Wye?" Daniel asked. "Yes. I love him very much," Kian said. "He is Mawk's boyfwend wight?" Daniel asked. Kian was surprised but saw no reason to lie, "Yes he and Mark are boyfriends and love each other very much, just like your auntie Jill and me." "Do they kiss and stuff too?" Danield asked. Kian paused before answering, "Yes they do." "That's okay," Daniel said and hopped off the bed, "Seeya later" Daniel was out the door leaving a smiling and rather amused Kian sitting on the bed. Jill came in shortly after. "He's something," Kian said immediately. "He's a doll," Jill smiled with obvious affection for her nephew. "He knew who I was and who the rest of the boys are," Kian said. "Really? I guess someone showed him a picture or something," Jill said. "He knows our songs too. You have to get him to sing Bop Bop Baby for you later," Kian giggled. Jill's heart lifted at this sound. "I bet Jason and Eleanor have been doing research then," Jill said. "He knows you and me are together and is gonna call me Unca Keen," Kian said happily. Jill couldn't help herself and grabbed Kian around the waist and pulled him down on the bed with her. "He also knows about Mark and Rye," Kian said. "That they are together?" Jill asked and Kian nodded. Jill wondered about this for a bit but would soon find out how Daniel seemed so informed. - Sixth Sense - Jill and Kian finally came downstairs to the kitchen where Irene and Eleanor were making lunch. "Hi mom, Hi Eleanor. This is Kian. Kian this is my mom and my sister," Jill introduced. "Hello Kian dear, sit down won't you. Would you two like something to nibble on until lunch?" Irene asked as she gave Jill then Kian a motherly hug. "No thanks mom," Jill said as she sat down. "Actually I am a little hungry. Something small to keep me till lunch would be nice," Kian asked shyly. "Sure hon. A bagel and cheese?" Eleanor asked. "That would be fine," Kian nodded and felt more at ease. Nobody was staring at him or treating him oddly. It was like he was just another member of the family. "How long?" Irene asked of Eleanor who chuckled. "A minute," Eleanor said. "30 seconds," Irene responded and looked at the clock on the wall. "What are you two talking about?" Jill asked. "Daniel has an amazing ability to be wherever food is being served. Just watch," Eleanor said. Sure enough, before Eleanor had finished spreading the cheese on the bagel Daniel wandered in, "Can I have some?" Everyone looked at the clock. "42 seconds. I win," Irene laughed. "Sure buddy you can have some of mine," Kian said as he set the boy on his lap. "Thanks Unca Keen. I have a supwise for you. Look," Daniel placed a picture on the table that he had drawn. It was hard to tell what it was, but it looked like a bunch of stick figures. Eleanor handed the plate to Kian who gave one half of the bagel to Daniel. "Who is it?" Jill asked. The little boy sighed as if it was obvious and began pointing out the people, "That is you and Unca Keen. That is Unca Wye and Unca Mawk. Those are Unca Sane and Unca Bwyan and Unca Nicky." Jill's eyes went wide. Daniel had drawn her and Kian holding hands as well as Mark and Rye. What was kind of a shock was that he had drawn the other three boys holding hands as well. "How come you drew Shane and Bryan and Nicky holding hands?" Kian asked, suddenly not interested in his bagel at all. "Cuz you have Jill, and Wye has Mawk so that means they have each other," Daniel explained. Jill saw Irene and Eleanor turn to the table and Jill opened her eyes wide as she looked at the women and nodded her head. Irene and Eleanor responded with widening eyes as well. "Who are these people holding hands?" Kian pointed to some other people. "Those are bodygawds to keep you safe." Daniel responded. Jill looked at the eight other figures, four pairs all holding hands. "Why are they holding hands?" Kian asked. Daniel shrugged, "I just think they should be." Jill looked at the four pair. Two of the pair had a big person and a small person. One pair was two big people and the last pair was two small people and one was a woman. "Are these children?" Jill asked pointing to one of the smaller people in the pairs. "No silly. These ones are just big," Daniel said pointing to the bigger men. "And this is a woman?" Kian asked pointing to the last pair and Daniel nodded. Jill looked at her mother and sister in alarm. This was becoming eerie. The two woman sat down at the table upon seeing the looks in Jill and Kian eye's and hearing their questions. "What are these?" Kian pointed to birds in the sky. "Planes," Daniel said as he looked at the five marks he had drawn. "Who are these other people around the outside?" Jill asked. "Those are fwiends," Daniel said. "Do you know how they are friends and to who?" Jill asked. Daniel nodded and began pointing them out. "These ones are on tv," he said pointing to a pair. "On tv? Do you know their names?" Kian asked. Daniel shook his head, "This one sings Oh baby can't you see can't you see." Kian almost passed out. Daniel had drawn Corey and Nick Carter. "Who else?" Jill asked, her heart hammering in her chest. "These are bwothers, see they hold hands too," Daniel pointed to a pair drawn next to a pair of bodyguards. "And these?" Jill pointed to another couple holding hands near another pair of bodyguards. "They are mawwied," Daniel said. "What's this standing next to them?" Kian asked. "Hosees!" Daniel exclaimed. Kian suppressed a shiver and pointed to another pair holding hands near the two large bodyguards. "Those are boyfwiends too, but they are small," Daniel said. Neither Jill or Kian knew about these two yet but filed the information away. "And these?" Jill asked pointing to a pair near the boys. "A king, see his cwown?" Daniel pointed to the pointy part on one of the figures head. "So all these people here are us?" Jill pointed to the crowd of people around the picture of her and Kian. Daniel nodded. "Wow can I keep this Daniel?" Kian asked Very pleased the boy nodded. "Why don't you go watch tv and finish your bagel, you can take this one too," Jill said. "I'm not allowed to eat in front of the tv," Daniel said. "This time you can. Now go on and scoot okay sweetie," Jill said. Daniel took the other bagel, leaving the plate behind and left. "Holy fuck that is too spooky," Kian said when the boy had left. Jill nodded then shivered. "What's going on?" Irene asked. "Some of it he could have got on his own but the rest," Kian paused. Jill moved the picture so that her mom and sister could see it and began pointing to the people. "Mark and Rye, a couple. Me and Kian, a couple. Bryan, Shane and Nicky are in a relationship together. This is Corey James on MTV and Nick Carter they are seeing Rye and Mark this weekend. This is Cleo and Simon a married couple who are bodyguards. This is Ed and Jay who are a couple and who are visiting Ed's sister and her husband at their horse farm. Ed is our chief of security. This is Matt and Andy who are visiting their mom who has sort of adopted two young men named Tre and DJ who are a couple. Matt is second behind Ed in security. This is Carl and Alex who are a couple. They are also in security. I don't know who the younger men with them are. These men with the boys are Alex and Hassan. Hassan is a prince. All together we used 5 jets to transport us all this weekend," Jill finished. Nobody said anything for a long long time. Finally Eleanor broke the silence. "What does it mean?" she asked in a whisper. "He is psychic," Kian stated and nobody argued. The evidence was too overwhelming. "What do we do?" Irene asked. "Nothing. I mean don't discourage him or make him feel bad about it. Honestly I don't know. I do know a couple from back home that may be able to help. For now just pretend it doesn't exist and don't tell anyone else in the family," Jill said. Eleanor and Irene nodded in agreement. "How long has he been able to do that?" Kian asked. "Never," Eleanor said then stopped, "Well I guess there have been other things though. Like coming for food. Last year he knew what all his presents were before he opened them at Christmas. We just thought he was a good guesser." Irene and Eleanor began to think about it and suddenly there were dozens of instances that came to mind. "I think the most important thing is to not treat him any differently. He will see it and it may hurt him," Kian said and everyone nodded. "For now this is between us. I don't think any of the menfolk should know," Irene said. "Not even Jason?" Eleanor asked then answered her own question, "No. There is no need. He hasn't really changed at all we just found out something about him we didn't know before. Let's leave it until we can talk to Jill's friends." Kian picked up the drawing, almost with reverance, and went back to the room where he packed it away carefully. Making sure it would not get torn or crumpled. Downstairs Jill was making a phone call. "Hi Marg, it's Jill. Listen you probably know why I'm calling but..." Jill paused and listened. The others turned back to Kian as he entered the kitchen again. "Who's Jill talking to?" he asked. "Someone named Marg?" Eleanor said but also obviously wanting to know more. "Ah yes. Marg and her husband are pretty spooky too. But they are the nicest people you will ever meet. They are like everyone's favourite relative. They will be a big help," Kian said as Jill hung up. "So did they already know all about Daniel?" Kian asked and smiled at the looks on Irene and Eleanor's faces. "Yeah of course. They said not to worry about him and that they would call later to arrange a time to come visit. They will come to visit in a few weeks," Jill said. "What? They knew about Daniel? And they are coming here to visit? In my house?" Irene asked. "Yeah they knew about Daniel, even knew his name. They will call you several times over the next few weeks so you can get acquainted and then come to stay for a week. Believe me you will love them and by the end of the week will want them to come visit," Jill said. "Did they say anything else?" Kian asked. "Just that they are happy for all of us and the large family we are building," Jill said and Kian nodded. - Forgiving Eric - Supper was fun. Everyone was relaxed and acted like Kian was a long time member of the family. Nobody treated him special or as if he was a celebrity. The conversation did not revolve around him but neither did it center on things that would exclude him. Kian noticed that Jill was still acting cool towards Eric and that Eric said nothing during dinner and avoided eye contact with everyone. When dinner was over Irene stood up, "Okay Jason, Sam, Mary you clean up the table. Beth and Candace you dish out dessert with Daniel. We can eat out on the deck," Everyone stood and began to do their assigned chores. Eric quietly got up and left. Kian followed him with his eyes then looked at Jill who looked sad. "Shall we go after him?" Kian asked but he clearly would accept only one answer. Jill nodded and took his hand and they left together. They found Eric in his room. The house was large and everyone still lived at home except for Jason and Eleanor who had a house just next door. "Can we come in Eric?" Jill asked of her brother who lay face down on his bed, his face buried in a pillow. He was obviously crying. Jill made up her mind. "Eric honey. I forgive you and love you. You and me are okay again. How about I leave you and Kian alone to get to know each other then you come out for dessert. Later we can hang out like old times," Jill said as she rubbed his back a couple of times, leaned down and kissed the back of his head and left a very surprised Kian in the room with Eric. For a long time nobody said anything or moved. Kian was still standing inside the door when Eric finally rolled over and looked at him, his eyes swollen and red from crying. "Do you hate me? I don't blame you if you do but I'm really sorry," Eric said still sobbing. Kian's heart melted and he went to sit beside the young man. "I don't hate you. It was a shitty thing to do but you didn't know any better. I knew you guys did stuff like that since Rye told me. But we never got a chance to tell you that I hate jokes like that. So you are forgiven and it's forgotten," Kian said. Eric smiled warily through his tears and Kian lay down and placed an arm across his chest and held him. Eric stayed like this for a minute or so then rolled on his side and pulled himself close to Kian, beginning to cry again. "Hey it's okay now. Everyone is okay again," Kian said as he rocked the man in his arms. "I thought I messed up so bad and that you and Jill would hate me and maybe not come back and then everyone would hate me," Eric sobbed. "You messed up a little but it's all been fixed. Now let's go get you cleaned up a bit then get some dessert and you can tell me what we are gonna do tonight," Kian said as he stood and pulled Eric up after him. They went to the washroom where Kian sat Eric on the counter and gently washed his face. "You are a lot like Rye. I can see why Jill loves you. Not many men would be this loving to another man. Are you gay? No you can't be if you are with Jill. Are you bi?" Eric asked. Kian stopped washing Eric briefly then continued and said, "Yes I am actually. I am with Jill and we will be married some day but I also share my love with Rye and my friends." Eric nodded, "That makes sense, no straight guy could be this loving." "Are you gay?" Kian asked as he rinsed the cloth and ran more cold water through it, hoping to get the puffiness in Eric's eyes to go down with the cool cloth. "No I'm straight but just really emotional. Thanks Kian for everything," Eric said. "No problem. You remind me of Bryan a bit. He is the emotional one in our family. He's gay sure, but he is much more emotional than the rest of us. He can go through a dozen different emotions in just a few minutes. It's one of the reasons we love him so much," Kian said and once again hugged the other man. "I think Jill wants to do a family night tonight. We play stupid games and roast marshmallows and just generally be silly," Eric said as he released Kian and hopped down to survey his face in the mirror. "Sounds like fun. Let's go get dessert," Kian said and took Eric's hand and went down to the deck for dessert. - Sundae Sundae - Everyone smiled as Kian walked onto the deck holding Eric's hand. "Everything okay between you all now?" Irene asked. "Yeah we're good," Eric smiled and squeezed Kian's hand before releasing it to grab a piece of pie and sit down. "Unca Keen I saved you a seat," Daniel crowed from a picnic table on the deck. His face was liberally covered with ice cream and cherry pie. "Thanks buddy," Kian smiled happily and he realized he felt very content and happy at that moment. He sat down beside Daniel and gave the boy a kiss on the top of the head before digging in. "This is pretty good pie and ice cream," Kian said to Daniel who looked up at him and smiled. "I made the ice cream," Daniel proclaimed proudly. "Did you? Well it's very good ice cream, thank you buddy," Kian said, figuring that Daniel had been allowed to scoop the ice cream for the pie. "How come you call me buddy?" Daniel asked. "Cuz you are my buddy right?" Kian asked. "I want a nickname like the others please Sweets," Daniel said. Jill, sitting in a chair not far from the picnic table, dropped her plate at hearing this. Kian turned to her with a shocked look on his face but knowing now that the young boy could probably read everything about him he let his love and caring for the youngster flow through him. "Okay let me think of a good name for you okay?" Kian said as he watched Jill, Irene and Eleanor walk back into the house after cleaning up the spill. "I know I know, you can call me Spooky, I like that," Daniel said. "Are you sure Daniel? You know you don't really scare me you just surprise me sometimes. I don't really think you're spooky," Kian said to the little boy. Daniel looked at Kian directly and Kian felt the boy look into his soul, "I know it Unca Sweets but I like being spooky." Kian nodded and ruffled the boys hair, "Okay Spooky, let's go get more pie and ice cream." He picked the boy up, not caring about the messy face or hands and went into the kitchen. He sat the boy on the counter and looked in the fridge. "No more pie," Kian said. "Bummer," Daniel replied from the counter and Kian chuckled. "Oh but this is good," Kian began to take stuff out of the fridge and put it on the counter. He traded the dirty plates for two deep bowls. "Whatcha makin Unca Sweets?" Daniel asked. "Something sweet," Kian smiled. He placed a brownie in the bottom of each bowl then put a scoop of ice cream on top. Then he took a banana and sliced it up, half in each bowl. He then put whipped cream all around the brownie, giving both himself and Daniel a squirt from the can before topping the creation off with a couple of cherries and some nuts. "There's spwinkles in the cupboard," Daniel pointed. Kian opened the cupboard and found the candy stash. "How about Reese's Pieces instead?" Kian asked and Daniel nodded his head enthusiastically. Kian sprinkled the candies liberally over the creation. "Okay you grab the door for us Spooky and I will carry them out," Kian said as he grabbed spoons, napkins and a wet cloth to wipe Daniel down. The pair went back out and when Eleanor saw what they had she said, "He's staying here with you tonight," and laughed. Kian though widened his eyes and looked at her, "Can he really?" Eleanor was surprised by the question. Kian really did want to spend his time with her son. She saw the connection between the two and so smiled and nodded. "Here that Spooky, you get to sleep over tonight," Kian said with delight. "Awesome," the little boy said and clapped his hands. "Awesome possum," Kian giggled. "You're silly Unca Sweets," Daniel said as he eyed the treat that Kian set in front of him. "Spooky?" Jill asked of Kian. Kian shrugged, "He picked it, and it's kinda cute." - The Rest of the Visit - The rest of the evening was spent playing various games. There were always teams and Kian made sure that Eric and Daniel were always on his team. They lost every game but none of them cared as they laughed and played. Daniel sat in his Unca Keen's lap the whole night before falling asleep. Eric often had his arm around Kian or vice versa and the two men became very comfortable with each other, laughing easily and sharing smiles. The rest of the weekend flew by with everyone getting to know Kian and a very special bond being developed between Jill's family and Kian. The time had been spent doing family things and Kian was in heaven. He and Eric became fast friends, but the bond he had with Daniel was precious to him. He was never far from the small boy and Danield adored his Unca Keen. Much too soon it was time to leave. Marg and Johann had called and spoken to the family about Daniel and it was decided that everyone should be made aware of the little boy's gift. There were many hugs and kisses as the couple said their goodbyes. Eric drove them back to the airport and once again pulled Kian into a hug. "Thanks again for everything Kian. You're great and I am so glad we got to know each other," Eric said. "Me too. I'll see you in a few weeks bro. Love ya," Kian said. "Love you too, and take care of that package," Eric said and pointed and laughed. "We will don't worry. It will get to Rye in one piece I promise," Jill laughed. Finally they were in the air and winging their way back to the tour and their friends. "See it wasn't so bad," Jill said then rolled her eyes. "It wasn't really. After the initial horribleness it was one of the best times I have ever had. And I just adore Spooky," Kian said. "And he adores you. I can't wait for the rest of the boys to meet him. Bryan is gonna be beside himself," Jill giggled. They settled back and fell into a peaceful slumber. ...to be continued DISCLAIMER Okay so for the last three chapters. I don't know the sexuality or their feelings towards being gay of any of the celebrities I mentioned. Obviously my made up character Rye never wrote music for any of those celebrities or had anything to do with The Prince's Trust. Any product's mentioned were for continuity of the story and their inclusion in my story does not necessarily represent their views on being gay.....and so on...and so on....
