April 2002 Bryce had no idea what to expect now, but he was sure it didn't just have to do with what jobs he would do around the house. If that were the case, why would they wait until later tonight to go over this? Bryce decided to go up to his room, which he shared with the next youngest boy, and wait for whatever would happen next. He learned his new roommate's name was Cam, which was short for Cameron, the boy's proper name. Bryce just lay on his bed, with the only light in the room coming through the window, and he stared at the ceiling, as he wondered what this place was going to be like. He must have drifted off during this time, because the next thing he remembered was the light being turned on in his room and someone calling out, "He's in here." Bryce awoke with four of the other boys entering his room. In came Cam, the fourteen year old, and two of the older boys. He wasn't sure what they wanted, but he sat up in his bed, with his back propped against the wall, kind of for protection. "What's the matter, little buddy," one of the older boys began, "don't you like it here?" Bryce wasn't sure how he should react, so he thought he'd better play it safe. "Yeah, it's okay here, I was just a little tired and thought I'd take a nap." "Well, it's good that you rested up now," one of the other boys said, "cuz you're going to get a little workout." "What do you mean by that?" Bryce demanded. "Oh, you'll see. It's just another of the little jobs you have to do around here, to help make our home profitable." "What's profit got to do with a foster home?" Bryce asked, not realizing how innocent he really was. "Well, Big John isn't taking us in just cuz he's a nice guy. He's doing it cuz it helps to support him in a comfortable lifestyle, and so he doesn't have to go out and work some dumb job." Now Bryce didn't know what to think. So his new foster father was only doing this for some kind of profit, but he couldn't be making that much from the checks he was getting or the few animals he was raising or the crops he was growing. So where was this money coming from? "Okay, guys," the oldest boy began, "it's time to teach Bryce about what else he's going to be doing here." Bryce didn't like the sound of that, but he liked it even less when he saw them all start to move toward him. He tried to stand on the bed and make a move for the door, but two of the other boys grabbed ahold of him and held him in place. Before long the oldest boy held both of his arms, while the next two older boys held a leg each, and even though he fought against them, he couldn't get away. Bryce realized there would be no sense in calling out for help, as this had obviously been organized by Big John, so he kept his mouth shut, though he continued to struggle to get loose. "Okay, Cam. Undo his pants and pull them down." As Cam hesitantly moved toward Bryce's midsection, Bryce looked at him and spoke. "Why are you doing this? What have I done?" "You haven't done anything, and we've all had to go through this. Just relax and try to enjoy it. It will hurt less that way." Now Cam unsnapped Bryce's jeans and unzipped them. Then he pulled them down below Bryce's knees, before he reached up and grasped the waistband of Bryce's briefs and pulled them down too. Now Bryce was held there, with his groin completely exposed, and with the other boys staring at what he had. "Not bad," the oldest boy commented. "Some of Big John's friends will really get off on him. He doesn't even have any hair yet, and they will definitely like that." "Yeah, he's sweet and innocent looking, and that will really turn them on," one of the others added, "but we better get him broken in for what they'll want to do to him. If we don't, they'll really rip him apart." Bryce no longer had any questions about what was going to happen now, and it sounded like a repeat of living with Maury. Obviously Big John and some of his friends like to have sex with young boys, so he took in boys who had been labeled as having sexual problems, so they could use them to satisfy their own depraved desires. "Okay," the oldest told them, "you grab both of his legs and hold them down, and you come up here and grab his arms." The two boys did as they were told, and soon they were in position. At this point the boy spoke again. Okay, flip him over and across my lap, then we'll start getting him ready." Bryce put up a little struggle, as they started to flip him over, but he suspected if he fought too hard, they'd just beat him and then make him do it anyway. Once he was across the older boy's lap, they had Cam remove his jeans and briefs completely, and then he and the other boy held Bryce's legs. The older boy grabbed a tube of some kind and squeezed some of its contents into Bryce's rectum, then he began to use his finger to spread it around the opening. "Just relax and this won't hurt," he told Bryce, in a soothing voice. "We've all gone through this and we've all survived, and it won't be so bad, if you don't try and fight it." Bryce knew he was right, from his time with Maury, so he kind of resigned himself to the fact this was going to happen and just laid there. After the boy ran his finger around the puckered lips of Bryce's hole, he slowly pushed that finger up inside of him. Bryce hardly moved as he did this, having suffered through worse before, and the boys were glad that he was being so cooperative. "See, it's not all that bad," one of the boys told him. "Just stay relaxed like that, and it will be over sooner than you know." Bryce tried to think of other things while this was going on, removing himself mentally from what was happening to him, and he decided to pretend it was Tommy and Johnny who were doing this to him. At least he cared about them and would have done this with them, if they'd asked, but he just didn't want to acknowledge that he was being forced into this again. Now, he realized the boy was working his hole with a couple of fingers, sliding them in and out and twisting them around, stretching the elastic opening even further. "Okay, Cam, you go first," the oldest boy announced. "Grease yourself up, but go slowly the first time. We don't want to hurt him." "I know, I'm not a dummy," Cam responded. "I don't want him to hurt like I did the first time." "Well, that's only because you fought against it. We told you not to do that." Cam seemed to ignore that final comment and he moved in behind Bryce. The other boy now spread Bryce's legs apart, thus allowing Cam to step between them. Cam's thirteen-year old prick stood straight out, pointing at Bryce's rectum, eager to invade it. "We're letting Cam go first," the oldest boy told him, "cuz he has the smallest cock and it will be the easiest for you to take. Now just relax and this won't be so bad." Bryce just nodded in understanding, as he felt the head of Cam's dick push against his opening. Slowly his sphincter gave away and allowed the head to pop in, and then Cam slowly continued to push against him, until he was completely inside of Bryce. "See, that wasn't so bad, was it?" the leader asked Bryce. Bryce shook his head, so the boy told Cam to go ahead and fuck him, and that's just what Cam began to do. Like a rabbit in heat, Cam began to slam his slender cock in and out of Bryce's love canal. He began to groan and grunt, like some wild animal, and it was apparent to Bryce that Cam was desperate to get off. It didn't feel all that bad to Bryce, as he felt Cam's lubed penis slide back and forth like that, as Maury had been much bigger and less gentle when he did it. This also kind of turned Bryce on, that it was a boy not much older than him this time, even though this had not been Bryce's decision to do such things. He could hear Cam reaally panting now, and he knew the boy was getting close, and then he felt his cock swell a little inside of him, just before Cam rammed it all the way in, and the first warm jet of fluids filled his insides. Now Cam began to jerk in and out again, but this time not in any sort of rhythm, as he was just finishing off what was left of his ejaculation. He could feel Cam's arms leaning against his back, in an effort to support himself after this exhaustive and draining activity. Eventually Cam pulled out of Bryce, and Bryce figured this phase was finally over. "Okay, Cam. You hold his legs now, so Steve can go next." This caused Bryce to turn his head, and he saw the fourteen year old undoing his pants and greasing up his erection, so he could take his turn. Bryce noticed that Steve was a little bigger in that area than Cam was, so Bryce assumed that's why Cam went first, to prepare him for the larger intruder. Now Steve moved into position and placed the head of his organ against Bryce's already used hole, and he began to push inside of him too. Steve didn't wait long, nor was he as energetic as Cam had been. He went slower, using longer strokes, at least until he got closer to his orgasm, and then he machine-gunned in and out of Bryce's loosening canal. He soon dumped his load inside Bryce too, lubricating him even more, and when he pulled out, he was told to hold Bryce's arms, so the next boy could take his turn. Once they had switched places, the next boy prepared to enter Bryce. Although Bryce was well lubed by now, with two loads sloshing around inside of him, his rectum was also becoming a little sore and sensitive, but he still didn't try to protest. Instead he hardly moved as this next boy assaulted his stretching anus, until he too came inside of him. As this boy regained his composure after his orgasm, they moved Bryce onto the bed, off of the oldest boy's lap, and now he prepared to take his turn at Bryce's sore butt. Bryce gasped slightly, when he saw this boy's tool, because it was larger than he had even remembered Maury's being. It was obvious that they had saved the biggest for last. This boy had the others flip Bryce over, onto his back, although someone still held his arms. The boy bent down and whispered into his ear. "Don't worry, I'll be gentle with you, cuz I'd rather make love to you than fuck you." Bryce wasn't sure what he meant by this, until the boy began to kiss his face and rub his hands all over Bryce's body. Bryce wasn't sure this was any better, but the boy was very gentle with him. He felt the boy slide his tongue all over the outside of his lips, and then he felt it trying to force its way into his own mouth. He decided that he'd better open up and let the tongue in, rather than have it forced in, and soon the boy's tongue was sliding all over his, trying to get it to respond. Now Bryce felt the boy's hand fondling his genitals, kneading and rubbing them tenderly, and he felt his own little dick start to rise. At this point the other boy took his mouth away from Bryce's and whispered to him again. "See, I told you that you'd end up enjoying this." Bryce didn't respond verbally to him, thinking it best to remain quiet, and he let the boy do as he pleased. At this point the boy lifted up and pushed Bryce's legs back to his chest, so he could line his penis up with Bryce's well-used boy cunt. He greased his penis up quickly, and then he began to push his way inside. He went quite slowly, giving Bryce the opportunity to adjust to his larger girth, and he even just held there, once he was fully inside of Bryce, giving him ever more time to become accustomed to it. When he did begin to piston in and out of him, he reached down with one of his hands and began to jack Bryce off at the same time. Although Bryce felt extremely full from this invasion, almost like he had to take a huge dump, it wasn't all that bad, especially since he was being stimulated too. As he felt the oldest boy sliding in and out of his butt, he also felt those feelings building in his own gut, as he too neared his own climax. Before long his body was tensing and tingling, as he reached his own dry orgasm, and as his rectal muscles gripped the other boy's cock, thus sending that kid over the edge too. Now the older boy was dumping his load deep inside of Bryce, and then he collapsed on top of him. Now both boys were gasping, as they slowly recovered, and the older boy rolled off him, as the others released his arms and legs, realizing there was no longer any reason to hold on to him. The other boys eventually got dressed and left the room, except for Cam, as he and Bryce shared that room. Cam walked back over to where Bryce was and laid down next to him. Cam began to rub Byrce's chest, trying to reassure his new roommate that it was over for now. "I'm sorry we did that to you, but it was Big John's orders. If we hadn't have done it, he would have taken care of it himself, and he's really big, especially if it's your first time. I feel really bad, cuz I remember what my first time was like, but I fought them and it was worse for me. I hope this won't make you hate me now. Remember, I had to do that, more for you than for me." Bryce turned his head and looked at him, seeing the pained expression etched on Cam's face. He could tell the boy was telling the truth, and that it had bothered him to do that, though he figured Cam probably did enjoy the sex while he was having it. He decided to take Cam off the hook, as he would need an ally while he was here, and whom better to have as an ally than his roommate? Bryce was still lying exposed on the bed, as he'd been too tired and too sore to put his clothes back on, so he grabbed ahold of Cam's arm and pulled him to his chest, hugging him to his body. "It's okay. I understand and I don't blame you. I know you only did what you were told or ordered to do, but you were gentle and tried to protect me when you did so. I enjoyed you doing it to me, because you weren't trying to be rough, so I don't hate you, if that's what you're worried about." "Yeah, I was. I wish there was a way I could make up to you for what we did." "Well, you could sleep with me in my bed tonight. I don't really want to sleep alone right now." "Okay. I can do that." "That was your first time doing it to another boy, wasn't it?" Cam blushed. "It was my first time doing it to anybody. Was I that bad, so you could tell?" "No, you weren't bad, but I could tell when you got close that you probably hadn't done it before." "Well, I guess that makes sense." Cam stood there looking down at Bryce, studying him before he spoke. "You stay there and I'll go get a wash cloth and towel, so I can clean you up." Bryce just nodded and Cam left the room and ran to get the items he'd mentioned. After a few minutes he reentered the room, and walked back over to Bryce's bed. He had a damp washcloth in one hand and a towel in the other, and he made Bryce roll over on his stomach, so he could clean him up. Gently he touched the damp washcloth to Bryce's puffy hole. Bryce flinched as he did so, as he was tender there and it stung a bit, but Cam was very gentle and cleaned off the drying cum that had oozed back out of his asshole. Then he washed Bryce's legs, before he dried him off, and then he had him turn over, so he could wash down the other side too. When he was done, he turned to Bryce to see what he wanted to do next. "Do you want to put on your underclothes or pajamas to sleep in?" "No, I'd rather not have anything rubbing near there. Would you mind if I slept like this?" "No, not at all. Do you want me to sleep like that too?" "If you want. I wouldn't mind that." Cam just smiled and got undressed, and then he helped Bryce crawl under the covers. He stopped and walked back and locked their door before he got into bed beside him, and then he leaned over and gave Bryce a kiss on the cheek. "Thanks for forgiving me for all that." "It's no big deal, besides I think I like you too." Having said that, Bryce reached his hand over and stroked Cam's groin, letting him know exactly what he meant by that comment. Even though Cam had shot his load earlier, his penis still rose from the attention, and he smiled at Bryce in the dim light. That was all the encouragement that Bryce needed, and he began to jack Cam off, remembering how much he had liked doing that to Tommy and Johnny. Before long they were pushing back the covers, so Bryce could have a better access and Cam wouldn't shoot on the sheets or blankets, and Cam just laid back and enjoyed the stimulation from his new friend. Cam could tell from his experienced grip and the way he let his thumb run over the head of his penis that Bryce had done this before, so he just enjoyed the wild feelings that were coursing through his body. Now he began to feel himself stiffen, as the boiling sperm rose up his shaft, and soon he began to feel it spurt from the tiny slit of his cock-head. The first volley was powerful, as Cam tried to hold it back as long as he could, and it exploded from his penis and left a streak down his body, from his forehead to his nipples. The second volley left its trail from his chin to just above his navel, and the other spurts fell from mid-chest to his pubic patch. It was powerful, and surprising he could cum so much after having shot earlier, but obviously his watching the other boys take their turns with Bryce had turned him on more than he had realized. Bryce jumped out of the bed and grabbed the towel, using it to wipe the strings of cum off of Cam's body, and then he tossed the towel back on the floor and crawled in beside his new friend. Bryce thought for a minute, to phrase his next question correctly, but he knew he had to ask it. "Why did Big John want you to do that to me?" Cam looked like a deer caught in the headlights, not knowing whether to run or stay, but finally he decided to be honest with his new friend. "It's because Big John will do you next, to make sure you're ready, and he's bigger than any of the rest of us." "He's gong to make sure I'm ready for what?" Cam swallowed hard before he answered this time. "He sells us to his friends, to make extra money." "What do you mean, he sells us to his friends?" Cam looked almost too scared to tell Bryce this, but he knew he had to. "Well, his friends pay him money to have sex with us." Bryce was shocked by this answer. "What? And you guys do that?" "We have to, or he'll beat the crap out of us." "Then why don't you turn him in to the authorities. They'd arrest him and send him to prison, so he couldn't do that any more." Cam swallowed hard again. "You don't understand, Bryce. Big John has lots of friends and he's protected from things like that." "How? If you tell the cops, they'll have to arrest him." "Not quite. Some of the guys who pay to have sex with us ARE cops." "No! They can't do that." "They not only can, but they do." "Cops?" "Yep. Some of the local police, guys from the sheriff's department, and even some state police. Hell, the mayor and a judge even come out here for sex." "All those guys like having sex with boys?" "Yep, that's why Big John is so well protected. Some of those cops are pretty high up and they'd cover up any charges made against him." "But I'm not sure if I can do that. I mean, it wasn't that bad with you boys, but with a bunch of dirty old men?" "It's not as bad as it sounds, and if you do a good job, they'll give you extra presents and things. It could be a lot worse, you know." "But I don't even know these guys and they expect me to have sex with them?" "You'll get to know them. They come here nearly every weekend, and sometimes during the week too. They each have boys they favor, so you won't have to do them all, but some of the men have been waiting for someone as young as you." "Are they gross?" "Not really. One of the guys asking for younger boys is a younger sheriff, but the other is an older judge. Neither one of them is hung all that well, so they should be easy to take. Just don't think about it when it's happening. I usually try to pretend that I'm doing it with one of the other boys instead." "Yeah, I guess I could pretend that I'm doing it with you." "Me? Do you really like me that much?" "I guess. You were fairly nice to me and you weren't rough when you did it. I think I could probably like you a lot." "Are you gay then?" "I think so. At least I've never really been interested in girls." "Well, if you want, we can do things in between, so it won't all be so bad." "Okay, that sounds neat, and it would sure make it easy to live like this." "Don't worry. I'll help you get through it and I'll tell you all the little secrets you'll need to know to survive. Okay?" "Yeah, that sounds great." The boys continued to talk for a while longer, until they began to tire, and then Cam put his arm under and around the back of Bryce's neck, pulling him into his chest, and that's the way the two boys fell asleep. Even though each boy got up during the night to pee, they were still cuddled together like that when morning came. Cam woke up first, and then gently aroused Bryce, telling him he'd have to get ready to go to school. "Is Big John going to have to take me and get me enrolled?" "Heck, no! Big John hardly ever leaves the house." "Why not?" "I don't know. He just doesn't. . He does do some banking, and sometimes a little shopping, but that's about it. One of his friends always makes sure the new boys are registered, so he doesn't have to go down there and do a thing." "Does that mean I'll ride on the bus with you?" "Yeah, we all go in on the bus." "What about the other kids who ride the bus? Are they all okay?" "Well, no one will bother you, if that's what you mean. The older boys will make sure of that, and if they can't help you, Big John gets some of him friends to 'straighten' the other kid up." Bryce seemed to understand what that meant, so he got cleaned up in the bathroom with Cam and then he dressed for school. He went downstairs for breakfast, joining the other boys at the table, and he was surprised to learn that he could have almost anything he wanted. The older boys were willing to make pancakes or waffles, with sausage or bacon too, or they would make them eggs, toast, or get them hot or cold cereal to eat. Bryce was quite impressed by this small change and he had a nice breakfast before he went off to school. Before they left the house though, the other boys who had 'broken him in' the previous night came up to apologize to him and explain that they did it for his own good, reinforcing what Cam had told him. He told them he thought he understood, and he was willing to be friends, so the other boys seemed to relax and feel that this kid would fit in all right here. The boys walked down the long driveway and waited for the bus, and those screeching brakes seemed even louder today, as the bus came to a halt. All the boys stepped up inside, finding seats they could occupy, and Bryce sat with Cam and Steve, the fourteen year old. "Man, I'm glad you're cool about everything," Steve told Bryce. "I think we all like you, and we talked later last night and felt bad about what happened. I had to do it with Cam too, when he came, and I always feel bad afterward, but I do it because I know it's better for you boys, if we do it first, before Big John or one of his friends. The older boys told me they were ripped open the first time, and it took time for them to heal after that, so that's why they talked Big John into letting them stretch the new boys out first, so they didn't have to suffer the same fate." "That's okay. Cam's tried to help me understand all of that, and I guess I do, sort of, so I don't blame any of you boys." "Thanks, cuz I know I didn't really care for it in the beginning either, so it's hard for me to do it to someone else. Can we still be friends?" "Sure, I'd like that." The three boys chatted all the way into school and they even took him to the office, so he could find out where he needed to go. They also told him where they'd meet him at the end of the day, so they could all ride back on the bus together too. They also explained that they might see him during the day, but they weren't sure, so this would make sure that he'd get on the right bus to go back home. At the office, the secretary had him sit and wait, until things calmed down and classes began, then she took him down to his sixth grade room and introduced him to the teacher. This was another surprise for Bryce, as this was the first male teacher he'd ever had, so he wasn't sure how this would be. The teacher seemed nice enough, though, and a couple of the boys in the class were friendly toward him, so he thought this might not be so bad. At lunchtime he sat with those two boys, as they got to know each other better, and he thought both boys were pretty cool. On top of that, his classes seemed to be interesting too. After school he met Cam and Steve where they told him to, and they all boarded the bus. They sat together on the ride home, talking about their day and what they'd have to do when they got home. They all knew they'd have chores to do, but Bryce didn't know what would be required of him. He soon discovered that as soon as he ran into Big John. Big John told him that Cam would teach him all he needed to know about the chickens, and the pair would tend to the chickens together for now. They would also be responsible for setting the table and doing some of the cleaning, but the cleaning was usually only done on the weekends. The boys went about and did their chores, keeping busy with them until dinnertime. Then they rushed up to the house to clean up, so they could set the table and eat. It was another decent meal, and again there was more than enough for everyone, then the other boys cleaned up while the rest of them went in to the living room to do their homework. When they had all completed their assignments, someone turned on the television and they began to watch some shows, until Big John came into the room and called out some of their names, telling them he needed to see them upstairs. Bryce was one of the names called, along with the two oldest boys from the night before, and they headed up to his room. Bryce figured that maybe he had done something wrong, and they were going to show him how to do it right, but that wasn't the case. As soon as they got to Bryce's room, Big John shut the door and told the other pair to get Bryce undressed, so he immediately figured what was coming next. Bryce stopped the other pair, telling them he could do that by himself, and they just watched in amazement as he took off all of his clothes. This didn't happen when the other boys were first broken in, as they would usually kick and scream until it was over, but Bryce seemed to be accepting his fate, though he didn't look pleased about what he knew was to follow. Big John was also surprised by this turn of events, but he enjoyed seeing Bryce expose himself like that, almost drooling over the exposed young flesh. Once the young boy stood completely naked in front of him, he told Bryce to bend over the side of the bed and 'get ready for a real man.' Bryce didn't want this to happen, but he had been mentally preparing for this since Cam explained to him about the 'facts of life' in his new home, so he turned and bent over the side of his bed, as he heard Big John unzip his pants and pull out his dick. He was planning to do Bryce dry, but the older boys told him to use some lube, so he didn't damage him. After thinking about that, he agreed, and while he slicked up his dick, one of the other boys greased up Bryce's hole and stretched it a little. When Big John was ready, he told the other boys to step aside, and he got ready to insert his big penis into that small hole. Bryce was thankful the other boys had been there, to keep him from getting dry fucked, but he was sure that Big John wasn't going to be as gentle with him, as the others had been. The oldest boy bent down and whispered in his ear, while Big John was getting into position, telling Byrce to relax and push out when Big John went to enter him. Bryce nodded his understanding, and then he braced himself for the assault. He didn't have long to wait, as he felt the head of the large dick nestled against his sphincter, and then Big John just shoved it in, neither going slowly nor gently. Bryce winced as the large tool entered him, though he didn't scream out or make a sound, other than to let out an audible grunt, and then Big John began to talk to him, as he ravaged his hole. "How's it feel to have a man-sized dick up there, boy? Do you like the feel of my big prick inside you?" Bryce did not respond to his taunts. Big John grunted and panted like an asthmatic hog, as he screwed his new ward, and Bryce just dug his fingers into the sheets and mattress, hoping that would relieve some of the pressure and pain. The two other teens almost felt sorry for Bryce, as they had had to endure the same thing when they first came there, but they admired how he took this in stride. They had never seen another boy take Big John without screaming out or crying during the entire time, so they knew this kid had to be either very tough or unwilling to let others see his pain. Due to the fact that Bryce was nice and tight on John's big hog, it didn't take Big John long to dump his load. After he had completed that loveless act, he pulled out and cleaned off his dick, telling Bryce he'd make him quite a bit of money in the future. After that Big John left the room, leaving the boys there, on their own, and the other pair immediately started asking Bryce what they could do for him. Bryce just remained motionless dangling over the edge of the bed, so the boys figured he was trying to cope with the pain by not moving right away. They asked him once again what they could do to help and Bryce still didn't reply, so they just sat beside him and waited for him to say something. Finally Bryce spoke up. "Well, do either one of you want to do me now, as long as I'm ready?" "No way, man," the older boy responded. "Not after you've had Big John's huge dick inside you. We don't want to see you hurt or in pain, and we're not into just having sex like that. We only did it yesterday, so you'd be ready for him when he decided to do you." Bryce looked up and saw that they were being honest with him, at least that's what he read from their expressions. "Okay, I'm sorry I sounded so mean about it. I know you two did what you had to do." "It's not just that," the other boy added, "but you took that better than anyone we've ever seen. You're a brave kid and we can admire that." "Well, I haven't exactly had the best life and I've learned that it generally doesn't pay to fight or scream out when others are trying to hurt you." "Yeah, you're right there. Are you sure we can't do something for you?" "Well, you could get me a wet washcloth, so I can wipe up." "Sure, no problem. I'll get that and a towel for you. Hang on, I'll be right back." The boy raced from the room and soon returned with both items. The older boy took the washcloth from him and tenderly cleaned around Bryce's bruised rectum, making sure that he didn't aggravate those sensitive areas. When that boy discovered there were areas he couldn't reach adequately, without hurting Bryce, he bent down behind the younger boy. Now he used his tongue to clean the offended area, the way a mother cat or dog would take care of their young. This actually felt kind of good to Bryce, and it did seem to have some sort of healing effect on those sore areas, so he tried to spread his legs a little farther, to give the boy better access. The boy sensed that he must be doing something right, so he continued his ministrations, as the other boy looked on, somewhat shocked by what the other boy was doing. Even though he might not have licked the kid's butthole like that, he did admire the other boy's true concern and compassion for their younger foster sibling. After several minutes of this activity, the boy finally stopped, and then they helped Bryce roll over and onto the bed. Both boys sat with him as he recuperated from what had happened, gently stroking his head, shoulders, or arms, anywhere but the sexual areas, to let him know that they cared, and not just in a sexual way. Unashamedly Bryce lay there naked on the bed, appreciating the attention the older pair were giving him, and he listened as they talked softly to him, telling him many things. "You'll be okay here," the first boy told him. "It's not easy, but it's not all that bad. We eat well, we get to do lots of things, and we try to take care of each other. We also protect each other away from the house too, if other people try to hurt any of us. You'll find it's not so bad here." "Yeah, and if you do like to fool around a little, we do it with each other from time to time, but not like Big John's friends do it to us." "No, we make love to each other, not just have sex or get off." "Maybe you can't understand that difference yet, but you will, and you'll appreciate it. I don't think we're gay or anything, it's just a way to survive, and we are horny teens." The two boys kind of chuckled at this remark, but Bryce found no humor in it. The two boys stayed there with him like that, until Cam came up to the room, and then they left the roommates together, but not without giving Cam a brief list of instructions first. "You watch over him tonight, okay?" Cam nodded his head. "And maybe you should sleep with him, it might not be good for him to be alone tonight." Cam nodded again. "You two seem to get along all right," the other boy commented, "so stay with him, but let us know if you need us to help in any way." "I will. I like Bryce, and I'm going to make sure he learns how to get along here. I don't want him to end up like Joey." "Yeah, the kid freaked out when that happened to him. Does anyone know whatever happened to him after that?" "I think one of Big John's friends had him placed in one of those mental joints, telling everyone that he was crazy." "You think he's okay?" "I'm not sure, but he's better off there, if he couldn't handle what happens here. He was too fragile for this place, but Bryce is a tough kid. He'll be fine." "I hope so, cuz I really like him. Even though he's a little younger, I think we could be friends." "And maybe lovers too?" "No, I don't think so, but I do want to be his friend. I don't think Bryce wants a lover, but I'd do it, if that's what he wanted." The other boys nodded their understanding, thus ending the conversation, and then they left the room. As soon as they were gone, Cam got Bryce under the covers, quickly undressed, locked the door, and then crawled into bed beside his friend. Bryce had either dozed off or passed out, Cam wasn't sure which, but he pulled the boy into him, the same as he had done the previous night, and soon he was sleeping, cuddled against his friend. * * * * * * * * Positive emails may be sent to ErastesTouch@aol.com.
