It was half five and it was time for Nick to head back to his own room to avoid discovery. "No, not today!" Greg insisted, gripping tightly onto Nick. Nick chuckled. "And what do we say if someone comes in?" "Nobody's gonna come in." Greg replied, refusing to let go. Nick turned off the alarm and sighed as he looked down at the boy clinging to him. "Fine, but I'm awake now so if I'm staying, you're not sleeping!" "Can't hear you. Sleeping!" Greg joked, keeping his eyes closed. Nick grinned. "Oh, well if you're asleep, you won't notice if I leave then..." Greg's eyes shot open and he sat up. "Oh look at that, I'm awake!" "Funny how that happened." Nick said, faking bemusement. He reached across to stroke Greg's cheek. "It still amazes me." Greg closed his eyes, enjoying the feeling of Nick's hand on his face, nuzzling against it a little. "What does?" he asked dreamily. "How much I love you!" Nick said, grinning through the darkness. The younger boy couldn't say anything, totally overwhelmed by the comment. Instead he just lay back down at Nick's side and kissed him. The embrace only lasted a few seconds before Greg nestled back down into Nick's side. "Did you tell Josh about us?" Greg asked casually. Nick frowned. It was somewhat of a tangent, and not exactly his favourite subject either. "Erm... no, why?" "I think he knows." Greg replied. "Last night at Corey's dinner, he kept looking at me." "Don't read too much into it. I think he was just doing his best not to look right at me or Cor." Nick said, thinking back to the meal the night before for their little brother's birthday. 'Awkward' had pretty much been the theme of the night. Pippa and George had done their best to act normally and keep the conversation running smoothly, but the lingering anger towards Josh from both of his younger siblings kept bringing about uncomfortable silences. By the end of the night Corey had at least started talking to Josh again, although their relationship was still far from healed. Nick and Josh had not exchanged more than basic pleasantries though. "Yeah, that was fun!" Greg said sarcastically. "Sorry." Nick said uncomfortably. "Hey, I remember seeing a gift in here Monday night for Cor, but I never saw him open it. Wasn't it for him?" "It was, I just gave it to him in private." Greg said, smiling as he thought back to it. He had wanted to avoid embarrassing Corey, and potentially himself, in front of everyone else so he had gone to Corey's room shortly before they had all gone out for dinner. "I... got you a present." Greg had said shyly as he stood in Corey's doorway. Corey eyed the small box suspiciously, wondering what could be in such a tiny package. He quickly tore off the paper and opened up the box inside. He found himself looking at a silver chain with a thin strip of metal hanging from the centre. The metal was covered in tiny raised bumps. Corey looked at Greg, confused. "It's braille." Greg had said sheepishly, shifting uncomfortably as he stood in front of the boy. "It says 'never alone'. I thought that if you had that dream again where you're alone in the darkness, you can... you can just grab that and feel what it says... even if you can't see it and you'll know you're never alone." Corey had just stared at it for several moments. "I... I can take it back if you don't like it." Greg had said nervously at the boy's lack of a reaction. When Corey finally looked up, he had tears in his eyes. "It's... it's amazing. Thank you!" He jumped to his feet and pulled Greg into a hug that had lasted until they heard Pippa yelling that it was time to go. As Greg lay with Nick, he felt a swell of pride that he had managed to find a gift that had clearly meant so much to the boy. "What was it?" Nick asked curiously. "It's a secret." Greg replied. "Aww go on, tell me." Nick pleaded. Greg shifted a little. "Please don't ask. It's... a personal thing between me and Corey." "Okay." Nick said reluctantly. He paused for several moments, then said, "Hey, as we're up early, d'you wanna..." He never finished the question, instead he just reached down and grabbed Greg's dick. It was already hard. "I guess you do!" Nick chuckled. "I guess you do too!" Greg giggled returning the gesture and grabbing Nick's erection. "Should I play Doctor?" Nick asked devilishly. Greg squeezed Nick's cock firmly, making him jump in response to the teasing. "I'll take that as a no then." Nick said, still grinning. "Sixty nine!" Greg growled seductively. Nick needed no further prompting. He threw back the covers, straddled Greg's chest then leant down to take the boy's cock into his mouth. Greg reached up to guide Nick's own throbbing meat into his mouth. They both took their time, they were in no hurry so they each seemed determined to pleasure the other for as long as possible. After several minutes of slow, gentle sucking, they both began to speed up. After already doing that same thing a dozen or so times, they had developed a series of touches and taps to indicate 'faster', 'slower' and 'I'm almost there' in order to synchronise their actions. They found it infinitely more exciting if they could time their orgasms to take place simultaneously. As they both gave the signal to say they were almost ready to cum, they both sucked firmly, pulling the cocks in and out of their mouths until they erupted in unison. The excited muffled moans added a little more pleasure as the slight vibrations of the grunts tickled their boners. Finally expended, Nick climbed off and took his previous position back at Greg's side. The two boys kissed, each getting a slight hint of their own cum lingering in the other's mouth. ***** Josh stirred a little, disturbed from his sleep by a quiet noise, but disregarded it and went back to sleep. It was too early and he was too tired to show any interest. After an exhausting and awkward evening with his family, he had then been forced to endure more of his master's tasks when he got home, which included getting fucked by no less than three guys and sending his master a video of him pleasuring himself for an hour on his largest dildo. He suddenly woke with a start as he felt movement on the bed and arms reaching around him. Secretly he hoped more than anything it was Dale, but realised it was infinitely more likely to be James, sneaking in early to see him before work. "Hey." he said sleepily. "Shh, go back to sleep. I just thought you might need a cuddle after last night." James whispered. Josh smiled as James spooned against him. So far their relationship had been almost entirely sexual, to the point where Josh suspected that it was all James was interested in, but then there were the occasional sweet moments too. This was definitely the sweetest. James had felt particularly guilty about the issues between Josh and Corey because of the part he had played in it, so he had been overjoyed to hear that Josh had been invited to Corey's birthday. He also knew it would be extremely tough on his new boyfriend and been as supportive as possible leading up to it. James lay holding Josh as he slept, resisting the urge to snooze himself for fear of being late to work. When Josh's alarm went off, he reached out and turned it off, then twisted round on the spot to bring himself face-to-face with James. "Hey again." He said quietly, smiling as he stared into the emerald-green eyes. "Hey." James smiled back, planting a playful kiss on the tip of Josh's nose. "How was last night?" Josh thought back to it and made the obvious assumption that James was only referring to the family dinner, not the orders he had been issued on returning home. "It was... difficult." He pursed his lips as he frowned. "Are things... better with Corey?" James asked cautiously as his hand slid up and down Josh's arm. Josh nodded. "I think so. Still a long way to go, but at least he's talking to me." "Guessing Nick isn't?" James enquired. Josh leant forward, burying his face into James' chest. "Is he right?" He asked, his voice slightly muffled. James frowned, not quite following. "Is who right?" "Nick." Josh said, then pulled away and looked back into James' eyes. "What he said on Sunday... about me being a mess. Is he right? Am I?" James sighed. What could he say? He clearly was, but a large part of that was James' doing. There wasn't a day went by when he didn't think about Josh and Dale, how they could... should be back together, but that would mean losing Josh himself and that simply wasn't an option. "No." James lied. "You've just been having a hard time lately. That's not your fault. You're doing fine." He smiled at Josh, but the smile he got back was clearly forced. "Thanks." Josh said quietly. "Hey, cheer up." James said positively. "Hey, how about a fuck? That always gets your day off to a good start." He chuckled slightly at the offer. Josh forced a smile again but it soon faded as he requested, "Could you just... hold me instead?" ***** Warren was sat waiting for Greg and Sam when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked round and smiled. "Oh, hey Corey. Happy birthday for yesterday." The two boys quickly hugged. Since everything had fallen apart between himself, Dale, Josh and Nick, Warren had kind of drifted away from the younger boy a little. Between Corey's regular disappearances and Warren occasionally avoiding Nick, the two boys had barely seen each other over the last six weeks. "Thanks." Corey smiled sweetly. "And thanks for the card. You waiting for Greg and Sam?" When Warren nodded, Corey added, "I may as well wait with you, Sam's gonna be coming to football practice with me." "Cool." Warren said slightly awkwardly. The two stood in uncomfortable silence for a few moments. "I... erm... I heard Josh came last night." Warren said tentatively. "Yeah." Corey said with a slight nod. "What did he do to piss you off so much?" Warren asked with a frown. He had heard from Greg that the two had fallen out, but never got any more detail than that. Corey shook his head. "He's just... he was so selfish, he always is. I went to him because I..." he paused momentarily, almost sharing more than he intended. "Because I had a problem and he was just too caught up in the new boyfriend and some stupid 'master' to even give a crap about me." "New... boyfriend?" Warren asked, looking thoroughly distraught. Corey's eyes widened as he realised what he had said. "I... erm... I..." he stuttered. "Who?" Warren asked, tears in his eyes. "Warren, I didn't..." Corey started. "Corey!" Warren interrupted sharply. "Who is it?" "He's with James." Corey said, a little scared by Warren's tone. "James. He's... he's seeing James!" Warren repeated, closing his eyes and shaking his head. "And... he has a new master too?" Corey was frozen. Warren would see through any backtracking he attempted now, but revealing more was just bound to make it worse. Warren's gaze was relentless though and eventually Corey cracked. "Yeah, some mysterious guy who gives him commands. He doesn't even know who it is. He's totally under his control." Warren buried his face in his hands, several deep breaths hissing in and out between his fingers. "Warren, you okay?" Corey asked nervously. When the older boy dropped his hands away, he looked back to normal. "Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine." "Are you... sure?" Corey asked, worried. Warren really did look okay, but Corey knew he definitely shouldn't, that was what worried him. "Yeah, doesn't bother me." Warren said with a casual shrug. "Hey guys." Greg called out as he and Sam approached, grinning broadly. "Hey Greg. Could you do me a favour. I forgot to tell Mum about football practice tonight. My phone battery's dead so I can't text her. Would you mind letting her know I'll be a bit late tonight?" Corey requested. "Sure, no problem." Greg said happily. "Come on." Sam said, edging away. "We're gonna be late for practice." Sam and Corey to headed off. Sam would have headed straight there but Greg hadn't been back at school long so Sam and Warren were ensuring one of them was always with him. He had seemed okay so far, but they were still very protective of their injured friend. As the younger two boys departed, Corey shot Warren a final questioning look but just got a smile in response. Warren and Greg walked home, chatting all the way, although Warren avoided mentioning what Corey had told him. When they got home, they headed straight up to Greg's room to get their homework out of the way. By the time they had finished it and piled their books on the desk, Nick got home and came to join them. "Hey Warren." Nick said with a genuine smile. "No Sam today?" "Hey." Warren said back, "No, he's at football practice with Corey." "Cool, what you guys up to?" Nick asked, flopping down in the desk chair. He really wanted to greet Greg with a big kiss, but had to settle for a smile and a sneaky wink. "Nothing yet." Greg replied. "We just finished our homework so we were just about to decide. Any suggestions?" He asked with a slight smirk. He knew Nick would catch the expression, knowing exactly what Nick would want to suggest if they had been alone. The three of them ended up playing video games. They had briefly considered going out as it was a nice evening, but Greg was only just getting used to being out of the house all day and was quite tired. He ended up just letting Nick and Warren play the games, sitting between them, his head resting on Warren's shoulder. He had originally wanted to lean on Nick, but avoided doing so for Warren's benefit. After about an hour, Warren paused the game and called out, "Sorry, toilet break." Greg sat up to let him move and he quickly dashed out of the room. As soon as Warren was gone, Nick and Greg both grinned and virtually pounced on each other, kissing passionately, the pent-up tension from the evening suddenly bursting forth. Their hands were all over each other as their tongues wrestled. "I'll have to go back..." Warren started as he walked back in, but froze mid-sentence as he saw Nick and Greg kissing. They stopped as they heard his voice, staring round wide-eyed at the doorway where Warren stood. "Warren... I..." Nick stuttered. The boy was staring, shaking his head in disbelief at what he had just seen. "No, not this too..." he mumbled, then turned and ran for the stairs. He had slipped on his shoes, grabbed his coat and bag and run out of the house before Nick had even made it down the stairs. "What's going on out there?" George called out at the sudden noise. "Nothing, Dad." Nick shouted back, pulling the front door open. It was too late though, Warren was gone. He made his way back upstairs into Greg's room, pausing in the doorway much like Warren had moments before. "Did you catch him?" Greg asked, looking terrified. Nick shook his head. "Do you think I should go after him?" he asked, catching his breath. "I expect you're the last person he wants to see right now." Greg said, burying his face in his hands. "Urrrgh, I knew we should have just told him. He shouldn't have found out like that." Nick felt a sudden twinge of guilt as a single thought ran through his mind, 'At least he knows how it feels now!' ***** KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK. Pippa was half way to the door when she heard Nick dashing down the stairs calling out, "I'll get it!" "Fair enough." Pippa said with a shrug, turning to head back to the lounge. Nick ran to the door, hoping that it would be Warren. As he opened the door, he found it was just Sam. "Oh, hey Sam." Nick said flatly. "Is Warren here?" he asked urgently, stepping inside "No." Nick replied with a frown. "I was actually hoping you were him." He started heading upstairs and the boy followed him. "Why? What's going on?" Sam asked as he walked behind Nick. "Was it him?" Greg asked as Nick entered his room before he saw Sam. "It's just me." Sam said, smiling weakly. "Now, what's happening?" Greg and Nick sighed in unison as they looked at each other. When Greg nodded, Nick explained, "Me and Greg are... kind of... together! We hadn't told anyone, but Warren... kinda.... found out about it." "Tonight? Oh fuck!" Sam moaned, rubbing his face with his hands then running them through his hair until he linked his fingers behind his head. "This is really bad!" "I know." Greg said sadly. "No, not just that." Sam said dismissively. "Corey accidentally told him about Josh earlier too." "Oh fuck!" Nick said, mirroring Sam's own reaction. Greg didn't say anything, he just pulled his phone out of his pocket. "Don't bother. His phone's turned off." Sam said. "First thing we tried." "Where could he be?" Sam asked, looking almost nauseous with worry. ***** Despite the depressed start to the day, Josh had ended up in quite a good mood by the time he got home. His master had mostly left him alone, just occasionally switching Buzz up or down at random intervals to remind him he was still there. When he had got home to find James already there waiting for him his mood had gotten even better. "Thanks again... for this morning." Josh said as the two snuggled together on the sofa. "It was really sweet of you to come and check on me." "Hey, no problem." James replied with a smile. Josh looked at him suspiciously, then backed away slightly. "You only did it cos you thought I'd let you fuck me, didn't you!" James giggled. "Yup, you caught me. Guilty as charged." Josh edged closer again and planted a kiss on James' lips. "Well as you didn't get to do it this morning... wanna make up for it now?" James grinned. "How about in the shower?" Josh jumped up off the sofa and headed for the bathroom, closely followed by the eager redhead. Minutes later they were both naked in the shower, taking great pleasure in lathering each other up. James was immediately rigid, his huge cock hanging out heavily in front of him, getting as much attention from Josh as the rest of his freckled torso. Josh's own cock had swollen as much as it could within the constraints of the chastity device. It was at times like that that he really cursed putting the device on. It had now been just over two weeks since he put it on and so far there had been no mention of when it might be coming off. It was only the occasional anally-stimulated orgasms that were keeping him from going completely insane. The huge cock hanging between them easily accommodated both of Josh's hands, while still allowing room for them to slide back and forth. James was happily moaning his approval as the warm water cascaded down his body. Finally unable to take any more, he turned Josh round, pushed him against the tiled wall and began to thrust his erection into Josh's eager hole. "Oh fuck!" Josh grunted happily. No matter how many times he took it, the length and girth of James' impressively large tool still took him a little by surprise. James started fucking him vigorously, thrusting him against the tiles. Josh couldn't help thinking back to the last time he had been there like that, taking James' cock until his own erupted all over the wall. That had been the morning after Dale's party and they had been caught going at it by Sam. It still made Josh laugh to think of the terrified expression on James' face from seeing the boy. So lost in his reminiscing, he almost didn't feel it when James shot inside him, filling his insides with a large pool of warmth. When James finally pulled out, Josh turned back round and the two kissed for a few minutes under the warm water before finally getting out and drying off. As they headed back into the lounge, Josh picked up his phone and frowned. "What's up?" James asked, seeing the expression. "Five missed calls from Nick!" Josh said, scratching his head. "I should call him back, something's gotta be wrong." James sat watching nervously as Josh called his little brother back. "Hey Nick, it's me, what's.... No, I haven't seen him. Why? What's going on?" Josh said, then paused to listen before replying, "Fuck, all in one night, yeah I can see why you're worried, but he hasn't come here. Have you tried Dale? Okay, keep me informed." ***** Dale was sitting on the sofa watching TV when Liam walked in, sat at his side and pulled him into a kiss. When they parted, Dale smiled and asked, "What was that for?" "Just... cos I can." Liam smiled innocently. Dale looked his new boyfriend up and down. "You..." he paused, thinking for a moment. "You've been acting kinda weird the last few days. What's going on?" 'I'm lying to keep you apart from the guy you really love just so I can have you myself!' Liam thought, his agreement with James nagging at his mind, but once again he forced it to remain silent. "Nothing's going on." he insisted. "All good here." He grinned broadly. "Hmm." Dale hummed suspiciously as his phone started to ring. "Saved by the bell." He looked at his phone, saw that it was Nick and answered cheerfully, "Hey Nick. Whassup?" Liam breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know if he could conceal the truth much longer. Aside from that, Dale still didn't know that Josh was seeing James, that was yet another bombshell he needed to drop. "No, I haven't even spoken to him since... well, you know when! Why, what's going on?" Dale asked, frowning. He listened for a moment. "Shit. Wait, Josh and James? No, that doesn't matter..... So where is he now?.... Fuck..... No, let me know if you find him." He hung up, looking somewhat distraught. "Dale?" Liam asked, stroking his arm as he silently thanked Nick for saving him from revealing the truth about Josh and James. "Gimme a sec." Dale said as he dialled a different number. A few moments later, the call connected and he said, "Hey Mum, it's me. Are you and Dad at home?.... What time are you due back?.... No, everything's fine, enjoy your evening. Bye, love you too." "Dale, what's going on?" Liam demanded, now looking almost as worried as Dale. "It's Warren, he... something's wrong." Dale said nervously. ***** Unable to track Warren down by phone, Nick, Greg and Sam had decided to go looking for him. They had made their way round to his house and were now stood hammering on the door and peering through the windows for any sign of the boy. Nick was still hammering on the door when he heard a car pulling up behind him. "Hey, Dale's here." Greg said, looking round. Dale got out of the car, looking nervously at Nick, Greg and Sam. "You had the same idea as us then?" Nick said, stepping towards Warren's big brother. "Yeah." Dale said, nodding. "No answer then?" Nick shook his head. "Good thing you're here, I was gonna break a window to get in." "No need for that." Dale said, dashing towards the house, pulling his keys out of his pocket. As he opened the door and stepped inside, he called out, "WARREN!" He headed straight for the stairs. Nick, Sam and Greg followed him in and started calling for Warren, but stopped as they heard another car pulling up. Dale dashed back down the stairs having heard the car pulling up too. "Is that him?" Dale asked frantically. "Is he here?" Josh called out as he ran into the house and saw Nick. He stopped dead in his tracks as he came face-to-face with Dale. "Is... is Warren here?" Josh asked, panicking. "I don't know, we just got here ourselves." Dale replied. Whatever was going on, or not going on as the case may be, between himself and Josh, it was forgotten momentarily in their mutual worry. They all fanned out, searching the house for any sign of Warren. Most of them ended up back in the lounge having found no sign of the upset boy. "What do we do now?" Nick asked, fiddling nervously with his hands. "We go out and search." Dale said firmly. "We've got two cars between us, we can cover quite a lot of ground if we..." He didn't get to finish the instruction as he was interrupted by Sam. "EVERYONE GET UP HERE!" the boy called out frantically. In a mad dash, they all ran up the stairs and found Sam in Warren's room. "Did you find something?" Josh asked quickly. Sam was stood in front of Warren's desk, shaking. "Sam? What did you find?" Dale asked firmly, grabbing the boy by his shoulders. "I... I... noticed his computer was on and it wasn't locked, which was weird because I know he always locks it so that seemed a bit strange.... so I looked and... and it looked like he had recorded something." Sam rambled nervously. The whole group exchanged nervous look as they gathered around the monitor. The desktop was empty aside from a single video file. Dale took a deep breath and clicked on it. A video popped up of Warren, sitting in front of the computer in tears. "I used to be happy." Warren started. "I had everything I could ever want. Most guys my age don't know what it's like to be in love, but I do. I was lucky enough to actually be in love with two guys, two amazing, sexy, fun, kind, sweet guys who meant the entire world to me. And I had great brothers too, not just Dale, but my cool little bro, Corey, too. Then I had a best friend as well, Sam. I could tell him anything, trust him completely. And Greg too, my other best friend. We were happy. We all were!" Warren paused in the video, wiping tears from his cheeks. "Oh my God, is this..." Greg started, but couldn't say any more. He could tell from everyone's expressions that they had just realised the same thing. Warren went on. "So yeah, two guys I loved, two awesome brothers and two amazing best friends. Then I went and fucked the whole thing up. I couldn't keep my big mouth shut and because of that it all went to hell. Everything just... fell apart, all because of me and nobody ever said it, but I knew they all blamed me. How could they not? I've been getting by, just... taking each day as it comes and I thought things were getting better, but then today...." Warren covered his face with his hands, sobbing for a moment, then dropped them away again and continued through his tears, "It's just... it's too much. I can't do this any more, any of it. I can't... keep going. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for messing everything up and I'm sorry for being too weak to get through it. I love you all." With a final tear-soaked stare into the camera, Warren reached forward and stopped the recording. "We have to find him, NOW!" Dale snapped, shaking.
