"Oh....my....God," what did you do, what did you say to him?"

I had just told Bastion about catching Danny beating off to our video and his eyes were as big as saucers.

"I told him to scoot over and I joined him," I teased.

But Baston knew me too well and he rolled his eyes and gave me a little shove. I had waited till lunch time to tell him and we were alone outside the cafeteria standing against the wall. It was cool, but not cold and cloudy and rain was predicted for later in the day.

"I didn't snap if that's what your wondering," I chuckled, "I think I handled it pretty well. Oh, sure I scared him at first....yelling "what that fuck?" but once I saw the horrible look of shame on his face I softened up. I pretty much told him I understood. And...well, I told him if it had been him in the video...not with you, but with Tommy or someone then I probably would have beat my meat while watching it too."

"Oh, Cody...what if he tells someone...not your parents, but maybe Tommy or one of his other friends?"

"Are you kidding," I chuckled, "he'd be horrified to think his friends knew about this. If I was really mean I could hold this over his head for the rest of his life, but I'm a good guy now...and so is he. He won't tell...but I think he may be wondering if  he is as straight as he thought he was."

Bastion seemed to relax a little, but I could tell he was still upset by the whole thing. I leaned in and bumped my forehead against his and he smiled nervously, "Cody...someone might see...."

"Would that be so bad? Are you ashamed of what we feel for each other?" I asked suddenly going off on a different tangent. This was something I'd been thinking about for a while now.

"No! Of course not, but you know how kids are and if the kids knew, the teachers would know, and then....our parents would find out and...Cody I couldn't stand it if they reacted badly and kept us apart."

Well, it was obvious Bastion had given it a whole lot more thought than I had. I pulled back and resumed my position against the wall next to him, not quite touching but close enough to feel his heat.

"I guess you're right. I hadn't thought of it like that. I...I'd die if I couldn't see you again," I said as my voice trembled and a tear ran down my cheek. Sometimes I was such a little bitch.

Bastion turned to me and smiled and wiped the tear away with his thumb, "Well, that will never happen, so don't worry about it. Mabye someday...if we stay together long enough, we can come out to our friends and our parents, but for now we're just kids and we have to do what the adults want."

"Do you see us together for a long time?" I asked curiously.

"Bastion smiled and I saw the love in his eyes, "I think we will be together for a very, very long time."

I smiled feeling very shy all of a sudden, "I feel the same way. But, back to the Danny thing. We got nothing to worry about from him. He's on our side. As amazing as it is, he seems to understand and I think he wants to help us stay together."

"He's a sweet boy, Cody. I love him like a little brother. Does he know you were going to tell me about...about what happened?"

"Yeah, I told him we didn't keep secrets and this was your business too. He's cool with that, but he may be a little embarrassed the next time he sees you."

Bastion chuckled then covered his hand with his mouth, "I suppose it must be very embarrassing for him, but it's a little embarrassing for me as well...for us, after all, we were the ones in the video."

"Yeah, two little porn stars and only 12 years old," I laughed.

"Who's a porn star?"

Bastion and I jerked our heads around to see Luke standing there looking his usual unkempt self.

"No one, just talking about some kids we saw on the web...you know webcamming," I said quickly.

"Yeah, that's hot. Hey, you guys been tryin to avoid me or somethin? I aint seen either one of ya since....(he lowered his voice and looked around) since you was at my house."

"NO! Of course not, we've been around. We just have different classes and stuff. What's up with you?"

"We had fun...didn't we? Tommy been talking bout it every day, he really likes you guys. And...he really likes your brother too. He told me what happened when he was over there that night. He says Danny gots a girlfriend now and that he don't even talk to him any more. I think that must hurt him a lot."

"I'm sorry about that, but Danny isn't like us. He likes girls too and I think he likes them more than boys. He's trying to figure things out, but that's no excuse to avoid Tommy or diss him. I'll talk to him. He listens to me, but it's still his choice."

"I know, Tommy's the same way. I tell him stuff, but he's stubborn...his own little man," he chuckled, "cept when he's face down on the bed." He added rubbing an obvious lump in his jeans.

"Whoa, TMI," I laughed, "We gotta get back to our lockers. The bell is gonna ring soon," I said hoping to slip away quietly.

"Oh, yeah...I'll walk ya guys in. Hey, if you guys ever want to come over after school or something just let me know, okay?"

"Well, thanks for the offer, but see....Bastion and I sort of decided to...."

"To be faithful," Bastion jumped in, "What we did was fun, but what Cody and I have is more than that."

I looked at Bastion with love and gratitude and nodded, "Yeah, we want to be together, just us two...nothing against you or Tommy."

"I  get it, no problem. I wish I had someone like that," Luke sighed, "But if ya wanna come over and just hang out that's cool too."

I nodded, but somehow I didn't think Luke or Tommy just hung out, unless it was naked....lol.

"Thank you for the offer," Bastion said coming to the rescue once again, "and maybe soon I can have you and Tommy over to swim in our pool. I've been thinking about having a pool party, maybe this spring for all our friends and a few kids from school. It might be a good opportunity for you to meet some new boys and maybe make a new friend."

"Yeah, that'd be cool. Okay, you guys here's where we split up. See ya all later."

"Bye Luke," we both said feeling relieved that he had taken our news so well.

We watched as he walked away and I noticed that even his walk seemed more confident since I'd first met him. I liked to think I had something to do with that, but I was just glad things were getting better for him and for Tommy.

We grabbed our stuff and headed to class and the rest of the day passed pretty quick. On the bus Trey plopped down next to me and mumbled "Hey."

"How's things?" I asked noticing his funk.

Trey shrugged, "Miguel is in big trouble, I guess his folks didn't know he was smoking weed after all. They're talking about sending to live with his uncle in California. His uncle is like a preacher or something. Man, he says he would hate it and run away if they did that."

"I'm sorry man, that sucks. Won't he try to straighten up...you know, quit doing that stuff?"

Trey shrugged, "He won't listen to nobody, he's crazy man...I swear...I wish I had never met him."

"Well, just stay away from him then," I said frowning, "I told you he was bad news."

"Shut up, you don't know him," Trey burst out, "he's my friend...that's all."

Something here didn't add up. At first he's dissing him, then he's defending him. OMG, I suddenly thought, he's got a crush on this bad boy.

"Sorry, you're right. I shouldn't talk about him behind his back. Anyway I guess you know him better than anyone. I hope things turn out okay for him."

Trey softened immediately and touched my arm gently, "I'm sorry Cody. I know you just care about me. I shouldn't have got mad. I....wish I could tell you....everything."

I wasn't sure I wanted to know everything, but I had to offer him the chance to tell me. "Well, you know that I'm your friend and if you ever feel like telling me I promise it won't go any further than me."

"And Bastion," he added casually, "I know you two are tight and I figue you don't have secrets."

"Well...in this case...since it doesn't affect him, I think I could make an exception."

"I'll think about it, okay."

"Sure, it's up to you, but I'm your friend and I'm here if you need me." I said patting his leg.

He smiled at me and suddenly I realized my dick was hard. Trey was a cute boy and if I hadn't already met and fell in love with Bastion, I might be trying to win him over. But I had never really gotten that kind of vibe from him. I assumed he was straight as a twelve year old could be and his hanging around with bad boy Miguel just seemed to confirm that.

When I got home I slammed the door and went searching for fap boy....Danny, and found him in his room, face down bawling his eyes out. At first I thought it was because of the video thing and I was tempted to just let him cry it out, but he was crying as if his heart had been broken and I couldn't stand it a minute longer.

I went in and sat down beside him on the bed and began rubbing his back gently. His sobs were so hard they were causing his body to rise and fall as if he were having fits and I was worried he might have cracked.

"Hey, what's wrong baby brother?" I said gently stroking the back of his head and feeling his soft blond hair. I had always loved his hair and his eyes and until recently had been jealous of them and felt like I was a troll compared to him. Bastion had done a lot to make me see that I was cute in my own way and that I didn't need to compare myself to anyone, especially my little brother.

"I....I....I'm......nnnn....ooootttt.....you..you're....ba...ba...by...broth....errrr," he wailed.

"What? I didn't mean that in a bad way," I said completely misunderstanding what he was trying to say, "You know I call you that cause I love you...you're not a baby, but you're my little bro and I love you...a lot."

He rolled onto his side and looked at me with those wet baby blue eyes and a pitiful look on his face, "You don't have to love me anymore," he choked out.

"What? Why would I stop loving you? What's wrong? If it's because of what happened with the video....that's over with."

"Its.....its...not....that,"he said managing to stop the deep sobs for a moment but I could see it was only a matter of time before the damn burst again.

"Well, it can't be that bad. Is it about Amanda? Did you and her have a fight or something?"

"No...it's not about her, but she probably won't like me anymore when she finds out....."

"Finds out what?" I said sighing, "You're not making any sense. Just tell me what's wrong."

"I...I..caaant...it's too....too....aw...ful," he wailed and the tears started again.

I laid down beside him and pulled him to me and just held him for a long time and let him cry it out. I was really worried that he had cracked and I was sure it was because of all the shit I had put him through all those years and I was terrified shitless.

After a while his tears stopped and I realized he was asleep. My heart ached for him. He had actually cried himself to sleep to escape whatever horrible thing was hurting him. I just lay there and held him and lost all track of time. I was still laying there holding him when mom came home about five and when she peaked in the room she cocked her head and gave me a curious look.

I shrugged and managed to unwind myself from him and slip out of bed without waking him. I went to her and she led me to the living room and asked me to sit down. I fell down on the sofa and she sat down beside me.

"Well......what's up with you two?" she asked sounding as worried as I was.

I shrugged, I wasn't sure how much to tell her. If Danny was crazy because of me, then I was probably going to be in big trouble, but I knew he needed help and I had always trusted my folks especially my mom.

"I'm not sure, I came home and he was crying. I tried to get him to talk to me, but he didn't make sense. He got upset because I called him my baby brother. He said he wasn't....wasn't my brother. And he said what ever it was that was bothering him was too awful to tell. I swear I don't know what it is, but it's got to be bad."

"Oh...no, he didn't." She said jumping up quickly and heading toward her and dad's bedroom. Was everyone loosing their minds all of a sudden?

I hopped up and followed her. The door was wide open and she was digging around in a drawer and suddenly she pulled out some papers and just stood and held them as if she were frozen.

"Oh, no....oh no," she said in a shaky voice, "He knows....he knows...." she muttered, "and he must hate us now and be so confused."

"Mom," I said feeling two years old and frightened. Kids don't like seeing their parents out of control or unhappy, "What....does Danny know now?"

"What?" she asked looking at me as if she didn't know who I was, "Oh, Cody...." she shook her head and I could see tears forming in her eyes, "I'm afraid your father and I have been keeping a secret from you boys all these years.....and now," she said shaking the papers in her hand, "Danny knows. We were going to tell him, both of you, but the time just never seemed right. You two were at odds all those years and if we had told you then, well..it would have only made things worse. And now that you two are getting along so well...we just couldn't risk telling you...."

"Mom, you're not making any sense," I whined, "When is dad coming home? I want to kow what you're talking about. Why is Danny so upset?"

My dad chose that moment to arrive and I met him in the hall, "Dad, it's Danny..its mom..something about a secret," I said near tears, "What's going on...I'm....I'm scared dad...real scared," I said throwing myself into him. My dad was solid as a rock and once he had his big strong arms around me I reverted to a little baby and began to sob against his rock hard chest. He held me gently and looked toward my mother who had come out of the bedroom still clutching the papers to her chest.

"It's time dear, he knows.....he must've found these....I'm so sorry he found out this way, but we have to make him understand...make them both understand...." she said trailing off and sounding defeated.

Dad opened an arm to her and she swarmed in and we enjoyed a three way hug for a few minutes and I felt better. I might not know what was going on, or what the secret was, but I knew my folks still loved each other and us boys and that was really all that mattered. We could get through anything together.

Dad was a pillar of strength, but that day when I looked up into his eyes I saw they were wet with tears. He sniffed them back though and smiled despite the situation, "We knew this day would come. The best thing to do is to sit them down and explain it to them. It will be all right, it doesn't matter.....well, they'll see. We love them both the same."

I still didn't have a clue what they were talking about, but dad's positive attitude was infectous. I pulled away and wiped away my tears and straightened up. After all I was twelve, almost thirteen and I wasn't a little kid any more.

Danny had woke up at some time during our hug fest and was standing in his doorway watching us with sad eyes. When he spoke I think he broke all our hearts.

"You guys are a family, that's nice. I don't belong here," he said sadly, "You should just send me away....to some foster home or something."

I was the first one to him and I slipped my arm around him and pulled him against me, "What are you talking about, you're my brother and I love you. You're part of this family too. We all love you, don't we mom..dad?"

"Of course we do," mom said coming to where we stood and putting her hands on Danny's shoulders and squatting down so she was face to face with him, "we love you, and I know this is a shock to you, but you'll understand it better when we tell  you the whole story."

"I understand," he said sighing, "I'm not really Cody's brother, I'm not really your son....I'm....adopted," he said starting to cry a little.

My mouth fell open and I looked at my dad hoping he'd put an end to that crazy idea right now, but instead he just shook his head in dismissal, "Danny, son....you have to believe me when I say I couldn't love you more if you were my own blood. I want you and Cody to sit down and listen to what we have to say and afterwards I'm sure you will understand."

Danny shrugged, "It's your house. I gotta do what you say." he said sounding like a robot.

"What's going on?" I said feeling near tears again, "What is he talking about?"

We were ushered into our folks room and Danny and I sat on their king size bed side my side. I had my arm around him, but he didn't seem to notice or care and he kept his distance as if I were suddenly a stranger.

"You found these, didn't you?" Mom said holding the papers she'd been carrying around up for us to see.

Danny squirmed nervously, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been snooping, but I heard you talking to someone on the phone this morning...to someone." he said softly, then he raised his head and spoke up loudly and with a little anger in his voice, "but you should have told me...told us, we had a right to know. It's not fair. Now...now he won't loooove me any....any more," he said as his voice broke and he began to cry softly. 

I pulled him against me and kissed the top of his head, smelled his soft blond hair and I had never loved him more. How could he think I would stop loving him? What secret could be so awful that I would throw away my little brother?

Mom sat down beside Danny and Dad sat down next to me and I got scared again. This was obviously some deep shit we were about to wade in.

"When you were born, Cody," Dad began, "we were so happy, so proud...and we loved you so much. We had always talked about having a house full of children, boys and girls, but we we would have been happy with either. As soon as you were a year old we started talking about having another child."

"But...your birth was a difficult one and the doctor said I might not be able to bare another child. We just knew he was wrong, and we continued to try."

I rolled my eyes, "Mom! I don't wanna hear about you and dad having s.e.x."

They both laughed softly, glad for the interruption.

"But no mater how hard we tried...I just couldn't get pregnant. We considered adopting but the waiting list was years long and we wanted a child as soon as possible. We could have taken an older child but we were afraid that wasn't fair to Cody so we pretty much gave up for a while."

I was still confused. "So you finally got pregnant with Danny, right? End of story?" I said hopefully.

"No, not exactly," mom said looking nervous, "but a good friend of ours did. Her name was Anna Marie and she was only 17. The father was a handsome and wonderful man named Doug Flethcher. He was 18 and had just enlisted in the Marines. He didn't know that Anna Marie was pregnant until he was transfered to Iraq. She wrote him a letter and he was very excited. He asked her to marry him and they planned to be married as soon as he could get leave."

I was sitting there listening, glad to get my mind off our trouble, and I guess I was still too thick headed to understand they were talking about Danny's real parents.

"Then...something awful happened," Dad said in a low sad voice, "Doug was killed by a sniper two weeks after arriving in Iraq. Anna Marie was devestated. She went into shock and she never really got over it. When the baby was born, she wanted to have nothing to do with him. She said he reminded her too much of Doug and she asked us to take him."

"She knew we wanted another child and she knew we would treat him as our own and love him and make sure he had a good life," mom said starting to cry a little, "and we did," she added leaning in to kiss Danny on the cheek.

"She let us name you and she signed the papers while she was still in the hospital. Two weeks after her release she was killed in a car accident on the way to see her therapist." Dad added sadly. So you see even though you're not our blood child, you are ours because we chose you...we chose to take you and love you and make you part of our family."

"We always planned on telling you, the both of  you, but you know how bad things were between you. And then when things got better we didn't want to risk upsetting the two of you again. But, now we see we were wrong, we shouldn't have let this go on for so long," dad said sighing.

"And now, you don't have to love me any more," Danny said looking at me defiantly, as if he were daring me to say otherwise.

I shook my head, "What are you talking about? What difference does it make? Sure it explains some things, like why we don't look so much alike, but you're still my brother. I've known you all my life, how could I stop loving you now?"

Danny was weeping softly, he was devastated and I wasn't sure any amount of words was going to make him feel any better for  a while. Instead of trying to convince him with words I pulled him into my lap, dislodging him from mom and held him to me like he was my baby. He melted into me and buried his head in my shoulder and I could feel his tears pooling there and it tickled a little. He was warm and soft and for a minute I forgot all about my rents as I leaned down and kissed his cheek softly. He shivered and sighed as we sat there for a long time and just bonded all over again.

I guess a lot of kids might have reacted differently, but after what the two of us had been through this was a walk in the park. It was sort of weird, but no matter who his real parents were, he was the kid that I had called my brother for the past ten years and it was hard to think of him as anyone else. It did bring up some interesting questions  but I would deal with them later.

My folks seemed relieved that I had accepted Danny's true parentage so easily, but I guessed they were still worried about the lasting effects of his discovery. I held Danny till my arms and legs were numb before he finally climbed down off my lap and went to the bathroom.

"Maybe you should check on your brother," mom suggested looking worried.

"He's not going to harm himself," dad said frowning, "he's just very confused and he has a perfect right to be. Imagine how hard it would be to live ten years of your life thinking you were someone you're not."

Mom shivered and wrapped her arms around herself, "We are the worst parents ever."

"No! No, you're not. You're the best parents a kid could ever have," I said as tears ran down my cheeks, "and we're gonna get through this, the four of us. We just gotta show him that nothing has changed, that we still love him the same." I wiped my eyes and strightened up, "And I'm gonna start right now."

Dad gave mom a little smile and said softly, "Well, it looks like Cody is growing up some too."

I walked to the bathroom and beat on the door loudly, "Hurry up twerp, I gotta pee," I said grinning. 

I saw mom and dad at the end of the hall smiling and holding hands. I loved them so much and I didn't resent that they had kept Danny's secret all those years. In fact it was probably the best thing they could have done, and I knew it. If I had even suspected that Danny wasn't my real brother back then, well...it wouldn't have been pretty.

The door opened and Danny stood there looking at me sheepishly. He had washed his face and he looked almost back to normal, "Sorry, your turn."

"It's okay, hey when I get done wanna go play some Wii in my room?"

He smiled shyly, "Okay, but I'm gonna kick your ass."

"In your dreams little brother, in your dreams," I chuckled as we passed in the doorway. I went in an peed and washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror. I smiled at my reflection and it smiled back. I was getting better looking every day, and more modest too....he he.

We played Wii until mom called us to supper. Somehow she had managed to fix a decent meal for us. It was Hamburger helper and salad and as we all sat down I noticed Danny seemed a little reserved. I reached over and cuffed him gently and said, "It's your turn to say grace twerp." It was really mine, but I thought maybe this might help him to feel more like he fit in.

We joined hands and lowered our heads and in a small shaky voice he began, "Dear God, thank you for my brother Cody, for my mom and my dad and for them taking me in and all. And God please take care of my real mom and dad...up there in Heaven and tell em...tell em that Danny loves them. Amen."

I couldn't see for the tears in my eyes but I reached over and gave Danny a little hug before wiping my eyes and attacking my plate. For some reason I was starved. My folks were wiping some tears away too, but I think we all knew things were going to be okay. It wasn't something that would happen overnight, but eventually we'd adjust. Maybe Danny would still have questions and wonder about what could have been, but for me I was happy things had turned out the way they were or I might have never had the best little brother in the whole wide world.

"Wait, what did you say....Danny is adopted?" Bastion said in total disbelief.

We were sitting in the cafeteria and I had finally found the nerve and opportunity to lay my newest news on him. "Yep, his real folks are dead. His dad was a Marine."

"Awww...you're teasing me..." he said but I could see he knew I wasn't.

I shook my head, "Weird, huh? Imagine my folds keeping that a secret all those years. It's crazy."

"But...but you still think of him as your brother...right?"

"In a way," I teased, "but now that we're not related....." I said suggestively.

"Cody!" Bastion said cuffing me gently, "Don't joke about this."

I shrugged, "Just saying, it's not incest if you're not related."

Bastion studied the tuna fish sandwich in his plate, "But you wouldn't. I know you too well."

"Probably not," I conceded, "but it's weird that we're like....not related for real."

"But he's your brother, no matter what."

"Yeah, I know. I think...maybe I even love him more now. It's like I feel sorry for him or something. I feel lucky to have my parents and I'm glad to share them with him, but it must be weird for him to never get to meet his real folks."

"Oh, if he were here I would hug him and tell him it's okay," Bastion said looking tearful. He was such a softie and I loved him for it.

"Why don't I bring him over next time and we can all go swimming?"

"An excellent idea. What about this evening."

"Probably not, I'd have to ask the rents. How about Friday? That would give me time to make sure the rents are cool with it."

"Friday is excellent, do you think you might sleep over?"

"Good idea, I'll work on that too. Even though it's your turn, this thing with Danny might work in our favor."

"Yes, I'm sure they would appeciate your taking him under your wing and making him feel welcome."

"Xactly," I said in a silly voice, "and we can go at it like horny rabbits after he goes to sleep."

Bastion giggled, "Yes, there's that too."

"He's gonna be fine," I said sighing, "I'm gonna make sure of that. He will never, ever, have to wonder if I accept him as my brother. He will know every minute that nothing had changed between us two."

Bastion reached over and put his hand on top of mine and smiled, "You are so wonderful. No wonder I love you so much."

"Yeah, I am," I giggled, "and you're pretty wonderful too. Come on let's ditch these ptomaine sandwiches  and go take a leak, if you get my drift," I said raising my eyebrows comically.

"Oh, yes, they are rather disgusting and I do need to relieve myself," he said grinning.

The bathrooms behind the gym bleachers were notorious for all sorts of anti-social behaivor such as smoking and an occassional fight, but at this hour they were empty and Bastion and I went straight to the back stall and I latched the door behind us. Bastion sat down on the toliet still fully clothed and grabbed me by the hips and pulled me to him. I helped him get my pants and undies down and he swallowed my cock in one gulp. I threw my head back and moaned loudly, but there was no one to hear us.

It didn't take me long to get my nut and when I was empty and Bastion had a tummy full of my creamy cum we swapped places. I was giving him the best bj of my young life when suddenly I noticed something sticking out from under the wall of the stall next to us. At first I thought it was my imagination and suddenly Bastion was coming and I was  busy swallowing all his tasty goo, but when he was spent I turned my attention back to where I had seen whatever it was under the divider, but it was gone. Maybe I was seeing things, I decided, and I didn't give it any more thought. 

We washed up and made it back to our lockers just as the other kids began to fill the halls heading to their lockers before the next class. We grabbed our stuff and headed off to class in a very good mood and English Lit went by quickly.

In Gym that day we had a sub again and he let us just play around. We shot some hoops and did some tumbles but mostly we just ran around and shot the bull with each other. Trey and Miguel were hanging together in the corner and occassionally  they seemed to be watching Bastion and me as closely as we were watching them.

"Think those two are doing it?" I teased.

"Trey and Miguel? It's very possible, they do seem very....close."

"Really? I don't get those vibes from either of them, but Trey thinks Miguel's shit don't stink."

Bastion giggled, "Perhaps they're just really good friends. But, my gaydar says there is more to them than meets the eye."

"Hmmm...well, you might be right. I filled Bastion in on the latest with Miguel and he frowned. 

"He does seem like trouble, but sometimes that's a turn on."

"Oh, is that why you were attracted to me?" I teased.

"Well, you are a bit of a bad boy. And the way you defended me that day, it made my knees go weak."

"And you've been on your knees and back ever since," I teased.

"And loving it."

At the end of the period we filed in to take a shower and Bastion and I took up a spot side by side. Trey and Miguel were in the stall across form us and I noticed Miguel seemed to be watching the two of us a little too closely. I was beginnning to feel a little like a piece of meat, but Bastion didn't seem to notice.

Fortunately Trey and Miguel left first and I relaxed a little but I was almost sure something was up. We finished our shower and when we got to the locker room Trey and Miguel were still naked and standing in front of their lockers. I noticed again how cute Trey's butt was, but it was Miguel's body that drew my attention most.

His skin was sort of caramel colored and flawless. If there was a mole or a freckle anywhere I couldn't see it and he had what I had come to think of as the perfect body for a boy. I loved the way  his slender hips transitoned into the swell of his butt, two perfect globes that I suddenly wanted to bury my face between. His back and legs were strong and muscled and I thought I would be happey to be pinned on a mat by him any day.

As lovely as his back side had been when he suddenly turned around my eyes went straight to the most perfect uncut cock I had ever seen in my life. His balls hung low and were hairless however there was a thick bush of  cury black hair just above his penis forming what looked like a v. His stomach was flat and his chest was rippled with muscles but my eyes quickly darted to his boyhood again and that's when he noticed my interest.

"Hey, man...you wanna take a picture....it last longer," he chuckled, but he didn't sound mad.

"I...just haven't seen too many, you know, uncut ones before."

"Oh, yeah...it's nice, right?"  he said actually taking it in his hand and shaking it at me. It immediately began to plump up and he laughed, "It's pretty big amigo, a real mouthful...but you guys could handle it," he said smirking.

"Shut up," I said angrily.

"Hey, don't get mad. It's not a bad thing man, it's a good thing."

I didn't know what to say to that and I grabbed my clothes and got dressed quickly. Trey and Miguel were still there when Bastion and I left and once we were outside Bastion took me aside.

"See, I told you. If that wasn't an invitation, I don't know what else it was."

"I....don't know, something's up though and not just his perfect uncut cock," I said practically drooling.

"Perhaps Trey will open up to you when you see him on the bus today. I'm sure he knows what's going on with Miguel."

"Maybe, come on. I'll walk you to your car. I see Maria waiting in the pickup lane."

On the bus I waited anxiously for Trey and when he finally appeared he sat down with a sigh as usual.

"Hey, how's it going?"

"Fine....but we need to talk."

"Okay, what's up?"

"Miguel wanted me to tell you something."

"Oh, okay. What is it?" I asked nervously, was it about my staring at his uncut cock in gym?

"Well, it's kind of embarrassing, but Miguel said I should tell you that he has something he wants to show you."

"I've seen it," I joked, "What do you mean?"

"No, not that," he said frowning, "Something else, something....well," he looked around to see who might be in earshot and leaned in close, "He has a video....he shot it on his phone...today...in the bathroom."

I still didn't understand. Had he made a video of himself peeing?'

"In the bathroom under the bleachers," he said turning red then looking away, "it's...."

"Oh my God." So that was what I had seen while blowing Bastion, Miguel's phone, "Are you sure? Have you seen it?"

He nodded, "He made me watch it so you'd believe me. He said to tell you that you got yours first then you did Bastion," he said sounding as if each word was painful.

I started rocking back and forth on the bus seat staring at the seat in front of me and zoned out for a few minutes.

"Cody," I heard him say, then he shook me and I stared blankly at him.

I licked my lips and they seemed as dry as the dessert, "What does he want. How much?"

He shook his head, "I don't think he wants money," he said miserably.

"Then what?"

"I'm not sure, you have to talk to him, here's his number," he said shoving a piece of paper at me. It was scrawled in blue magic marker but legible. I put it between  the pages of my math book and stared ahead once more. I just couldn't look Trey in the face. It was on thing for him to suspect that Bastion and I were fooling around, but seeing it on a video was something entirely different.

We didn't say much more and I was glad when it was time to get off. I went in and found Danny in the kitchen making us a snack. I tried not to act any differently toward him but he could tell something was wrong. Finally as he sat down across from me and sliding my PBJ over to me, he spoke.

"What's wrong Cody. Did you change your mind about me?" he asked pitifully.

"No, no..bro, we're bros for ever. We're good. It's something else. I'm sorry, I can't tell you about it yet. I have to talk to Bastion first."

"Oh, okay," he said sounding relieved, "but if you need to talk, I'm there for ya."

"I know little bro," I said patting his hand, "and thanks for the sandwich. It's good."

I managed to swallow all of it and washed it down with the usual SunnyD then excused myself to go change and call Bastion. This was one time I wasn't looking forward to talking to the boy I loved most. But first I had to call Miguel.

I closed my door and locked it and fell down on my bed and pulled  Miguel's number from my book and punched it in. He answered  almost immediately.

"Hey, amigo. I knew it was you. My boy Trey told you to call me, right?"

"Yeah, ummm...what do you want?" I asked nervously. 

"I want to talk man, that's all...you and your friend he needs to come too."

"Come where?" I asked feeling sick at my stomach.

"My place man...tomorrow, at four...you can make it, right?"

"I'll have to talk to Bastion, but I think we can make it."

"Okay, good. And hey, don't worry man. It's all good...nothin bad."

I doubted that and I actually thanked him before I disconnected. The address he gave me was some sleazy apartments on the other side of school so I figured we'd just go there after school. I sighed then called Bastion. He answered immediately and started telling me how much he missed me and how much he loved me and I had to cut him off so I could lay the bad news on him.

He actually took it a lot better than I thought he would and even thought it was funny...or at least ironic that our two video debuts had gotten us nothing but trouble.

"So what do you think he wants?"

"Probably money," Bastion said simply, and I can furnish that. I have over a thousand dollars in the bank."

"Wow, where'd you get it?"  I asked in shock. It would have taken me at least ten years to save that much at my present allowance.

"I call it guilt money," Bastion chuckled, "my parents are always throwing money and gifts at me to compensate for not being there for me."

"That's sad, but at least if that's what he wants we can pay him off and get the video."

"I worry that he may save a copy and continue to blackmail us even after we pay," Bastion warned.

"Then I'll kick his ass," I said without conviction. Truth was Miguel was build like a brick shit house and could probably mop the floor with my sorry ass.

"Let's hope it doesn't get to that, but perhaps he might think twice before doing that since it's two against one."

"Or two against two, there's Trey to consider."

"Yes, there's that too. Well, at any rate we really need to talk to him before we get too excited."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Man, who would have thought being gay was so complicated," I sighed.

"I guess sex is complicated whether you're gay or straight, we just made some wrong choices, that's all."

"But I don't regret the sex part, just the getting caught," I said giggling.

"Nor do I, and this will all go away eventually. You'll see...things will be fine."

"I hope so, so I guess I'll see you tomorrow. I figure we can go straight to his house from school. He lives in those apartments over on Elwood. I heard there's a shooting there like once a month and the drug dealers hang out around there."

"Oh, great....maybe we should have asked Miguel to meet us somewhere else."

"I'm joking," I said cracking up, "They're not really that bad, just sort of run down. A lot of Hispanic's live there."

"Oh, Cody, you are so bad."

"Well, I better go. I don't wanna leave Danny alone too long. He was worried that I had changed my mind but I told him it was something I had to discuss with you first."

"If you feel you need to tell him I have no problem with that."

"Maybe later, but for now I think the fewer people who know that better."

"I leave that up to you. Well goodnight. I love you and I promise everything will be okay."

"I love you too. Goodnight. See you tomorrow. On the count of three...one...two...three." and we hung up at the exact same time.

I lay there a few minutes and rubbed my eyes then got up and changed and went to find Danny.
