Chapter 9
A time in Silence

The week had gone by to fast, as far as Stephano was concerned. His sister
would be home in no time and his mother would be returning from her trip to
New York, and with her will be his father and step brother.  The thought of
spending time with his father was not very thrilling to Step. Although his
father was an OK Dad, there just did not seem to be any real bond between
them. He has seen very little of his dad in recent years. Maybe once a year
when he is out for a business trip.  As he pondered this relationship with
his father his thoughts slip to his older brother. Pauly has always had a
slight resentment to Steps dad. They are the sons of two different fathers,
and these fathers were once best friends. That friendship ended when the
affair was discovered. Pauly has always held this against his mother for
making his father leave him. Step thought how much Pauly has changed.  He has
almost no temper, he is more open. When Pauly would visit in the past,
Stephano always found a reason to not be around.  Palermo and Pauly seemed to
have a much closer relationship over the years she spent many long weekends
camping or just hanging with Paulo and his father. In turn Stephano was very
close to their mother. His mother was very lax in her raising of Stephano,
perhaps because Paulo was so difficult. But Allana Rose, Step mother truly
loved her children. Even though Paulo gave her much trouble as a child, she
had a very deep bond with her first born and Stephano knew this because he
could tell by the tones in his mothers voice or how she was always looking at
pictures of Paulo. Stephano stopped his day dreaming to survey the clean up
effort of the house. It was almost perfect, there were dishes left to be
loaded and the dusting and polishing to do. He thought to himself he will
leave that for his brother.  Darren had decided to take the truck and go
visit some family members he has in the Virginia beach area and would be gone
for a few days.  Joey had gone home hours ago after he did his share of clean
up. Step ran off to find what Pauly was up to and why he did not help. When
he found him, Pauly was folding his laundry.

Stephano peeked into the room and said "So where have you been all morning?
Most of the house work is done. I am gonna go over to Joey's house I promised
him I would help him set up his web camera later." Surprised he did not get
much of an argument from Pauly and satisfied Pauly would do his share of the
house work. Step got on his bike and left for Joey's house.  Once he pulled
up, Joey's mother was walking out to her car "Hello Stephano, how have you
been I've not seen you in sometime" "Hi there Mrs. Mitchell, I've been a
little busy my mom is out of town and Palermo just went down to meet her, So
I kinda been on my own" Mrs. Mitchell smiled "Well Joey says your older
brother is in town, we've not seen in a very long time. Well I gotta run, You
and Joey don't make a mess". With that she drove off leaving Step watching
her drive off. He thought to himself, it is funny how Joey's mother is so
very different than his.  Joey's mother was very over protective of him, his
own mother was very lax and not to strict with him. Even though she believed
in giving him as much freedom as he wanted. He was very unsure how his mother
would react to the activities he has been up, thinking he would have to face
the fact he was gay, but more than that he would have to eventually tell his
mother. The thought hit him hard, he had never thought in terms of being gay.
However the last few days his thoughts have been increasingly erotic and
usually centered on a fantasy of some male he had not see. Stephano walked
into the living room and picked up a picture of Joey's parents. Joey's
parents were pretty well off and the seemed to spoil their son.  Yes Joey's
life certainly was different. Joey's father spent a lot of time off on
business trips overseas and was rarely around. So in a way Joey was in a
single parent house as well and that maybe just the reason he is so spolied.
"Watcha looking at?" Joey said as he entered the room. "Oh nothing, I was
just thinking how rare it is for me to see your father" Step put the picture
back on the mantle. "Well if you really want to see my dad your in luck, he
is arriving tonight, mom has gone off to pick him up in DC, its strange he is
not arriving at Dullus airport. Anyway they will be gone for some time." Joey
said as he stepped up to Stephano grabbing his crotch "Which means if you
wanna mess around we have lots of time". Stephano laughed "You sure are a
horny mother fucker, lets go see about this web cam and then maybe we will
play around".  "I guess you are not as hot for me as I thought" Joey teased
this time grabbing his own bulge. The two boys headed off to Joeys room. Step
suddenly stopped halfway up the stairs and had a strange sense of something
very wrong, he shrugged it off and went about setting up the Web Cam.

Pauly had just finished drying the last off the dishes when the Phone rang.
It was South Carolina Highway patrol.....Pauly answered "Hello, yes this is
the Flagerty residence. What? There has been an accident? Oh my God my mother
and my sister? Are you sure? My mother oh no!!!!" Pauly hung up the phone and
dropped to his knees in shock.  Allana Rose Flagerty and her daughter Palermo
were in an auto accident, they were hit head on by a drunk driver.  Some how
the car was flipped over and landed in a small creek beside the road. Palermo
was driving and is now clinging to life and has slipped into a comma. His
mother on the other hand was killed instantly. The thought just occured to
Paulo, Darren is going to be gone for a few days and he was not too sure how
to contact him.  He has no car, the the other reality set in, his little
brother. He immediately ran to the phone and dialed Stephano's pager 911.
When he hung up he ran down to his room, Darren has to have left a number or
something somewhere. While searching around the room, the phone rang again.
"Hello, Yeah step it important very important, I need you to come home right
away. Listen don't argue just get home now! not later Now!"  Pauly did not
want to seem bossy but he had not time to argue with Step. The tone is
Paulo's voice was filled with seriousness and Step decided he would not push
the issue. "Joey, something is wrong very wrong, that was Pauly that paged me
and he says I need to get home now" Step said with a bit of confusion and
fear in his voice. "No Prob bud, I'll drive you" Joey was already grabbing
his car keys and heading for the door with Step right behind him. They rode
along in silence. Joey was unsure what to say and Stephano looked very much
distracted anyway. As they pulled up to Steps house, he was out the car
before it came to a stop. Leaving Joey to park the car Step ran into the
house "Pauly, Pauly I'm here" Stephano ran around looking for his older
brother when he found Pauly....Pauly was sitting in the den, staring at the
blank television. The look on his face was one of fear and confusion.
"Pauly! Pauly whats wrong?" Stephano shouted with fear in his voice. "Oh
Step, its bad little Bro, its really bad......I just don't know how to tell
you" Pauly looked up into his brothers eyes as tears rolled down his
cheeks...."There was an accident, Mom was killed and Palermo.... and Palermo
she is....badly hurt they said she" his voice trailed off into sobs. Stephano
stood frozen in place, Joey had walked up just behind Stephano when heard
Pauly tell him is friends mother was dead. Suddenly he found himself catching
Step as he collapsed.  He must have been in shock.....because he was not
responding to either Joey nor Pauly. "Joey, stay with him ok, I need to Make
some calls."  Joey moved Stephano to the couch "Hey Step, I am so sorry
man......I ah...I don't really know what to say" he threw his arms around his
best friend neck. Stephano just buried his face into Joey's shoulder and
sobbed.  An hour or so later Step awoke to the sounds of hushed voices in the
parlor. His mind was in a fog, was this a nightmare that he could not begin
to imagine his life with out his mother. She had been his source of comfort e
ven through all the freedom she allowed him, she was never to far away to
catch him if he messed up. Silently to himself and progressively louder he
started to scream "NO, NO......its not true it can't be!"  This outburst had
brought Pauly and Tony (Palermo's boyfriend) into the room. Step threw
himself into the cushions of the couch as if he could bury himself away from
the thoughts and just sobbed. Pauly sat beside him rubbing his back "Step you
are gonna have to calm down, I am gonna need your help, the two of us need to
make some plans and right away" Pauly said gently.  "I don't care, I don't
care about anything anymore....she's gone and I am all alone!" Step cried
into the cushions.  "What do you mean you are all alone? You still have me,
and with God's grace Palermo and Joey. I talked to your dad he is gonna fly
down in the morning, lil bro you are not alone. You have people here that
love you. I promise I will not let anything happen to you!" when Pauly said
that Stephano sat up "Do you promise? You won't leave me? I don't want to be
alone" he threw his arms around his older brothers neck and the two them
cried. Tony watched in silence. The only sounds to be heard were the two
brothers crying as the slowly drifted off to sleep from exhaustion. Tony
watching the brothers sleeping thought to himself, "Palermo, please be
alright I don't know what I will do without you" a tear slowly fell down his
cheek as he laid his head back in the chair and drifted off to sleep himself.
