Chapter 20

David was dropped off by his mother in time for him to eat lunch with the Ashbourne family. He was sternly admonished to remember to say please and thank you and to brush his teeth night and morning. This was all done in front of Alexander and Rose which left David bright red and almost in tears. But he was controlled and polite with his assurances to his mother that he would do all that she demanded. They stood at the front door and watched David's mum reverse back out onto the street and pull away. Rose noticed that as the car pulled away David although clearly still embarrassed visibly relaxed and let out a breath of air.

Alexander made sure not to comment on the things David had been ordered to 'be sure' to do and suggested, "Come on, let's get your bags upstairs to my room."

"And then go and wash your hands straight away and get back down here for lunch." Rose told them.

Picking up a bag each Alexander led the way upstairs. "What have you brought for one night?" Alexander asked as they walked into his room.
"It's mum. She made me lay everything out on the bed and then checked to see that I had what I needed and added loads more. I mean I had a pair of shorts and a shirt for tomorrow along with my briefs and clean socks. Then I had my toothbrush and a comb. Nice I thought but then mum got stuck in. So now I need two bags because I have a jumper for today in case it gets cold. I have pyjamas for tonight and a spare pair in case of accidents; a dressing gown and slippers. I've three pairs of undies; also in case of accidents; a shirt, and jeans for tomorrow along with a spare pair of shoes and also a pair of shorts in case it's too warm for jeans, two pairs of socks, and another jumper. Then I have a pillow in case your's are too soft or too hard; a hat in case we go outside to play, a wash bag with a face cloth, toothpaste and toothbrush; a comb and a brush even though I have never brushed my hair; and a towel. I mean you'd think I was only fucking six years old instead of twelve." David complained.

"Yeah, that's a bit harsh." Alexander agreed. "Never mind, you can wear what you want and we can just crumple the rest up to make it look like you at least unpacked it."

They left David's stuff in the room and went along the landing to the bathroom to wash their hands. On the way Alexander knocked on Callum's door and told him lunch was ready. Callum met them coming out of the bathroom on his way in to wash his hands.

"Hi David. Glad to see you again." Callum greeted him.

"Uh, hi Callum." David replied.

The two twelve year olds bounced more than walked down the stairs and Alexander headed them up on the way to the dining room. John was already seated at the head of the table and greeted David warmly.

"Hi Mr. Ashbourne." David responded.

"You must be twelve by now so you can call me John." John told him, and David beamed. John had overheard some of the conversation the two boys had had in Alexander's room and so used this as a way of helping to break through the formal barriers that David had had instilled in him.

"And you can call me Rose." Rose said as she carried some food in from the kitchen.

"Do you need any help mum?" Alexander asked quickly.

"No, thank you dear, you and David go and sit on that side." Rose told him pointing to the side of the table that Alexander normally sat at. Callum came in and sat opposite David and Alexander; leaving Rose her usual place at the other end of the table facing John. Callum had also heard David and Alexander's conversation and so was careful not to say anything that might upset David.

Bradley arrived while they were still eating and Rose insisted he share in their lunch asking Callum to get a plate and utensils for Bradley. Bradley's protests that he had already eaten lunch before he left his home fell on Rose's 'deaf' ears. The three Ashbourne males just shrugged their shoulders and looked sorry for him when he looked to them for support. Despite his protests he did manage to get down a reasonable portion of food. Rose got that 'see I told you' expression of victory.

After lunch the two pairs of boys went up to their rooms with Bradley going with Callum and David with Alexander. Alexander had already talked to his father about it and had two of the air mattresses in his room ready to pump up so when David agreed to his suggestion of pushing the bed to the side and both of them having a mattress on the floor he was able to pull the mattresses out and plug the pump in. While the first mattress was pumping up the two boys pushed and dragged the bed as much out of the way as they could and then sat down on it while they waited for the pump to complete its job. Alexander had also made sure that they pulled the bed against the wall that separated his room from Callum's and now sitting on the bed they were close to the wall and could hear the two older boys talking in the next room. The noise from the pump blowing the mattresses up confused the sounds from the room next door and it was not until the pump was turned off that David and Alexander could make out the actual words being spoken.

"… but you do like getting your cock sucked don't you?" Bradley asked Callum at the part of the conversation where the other two could make out the words.

"I don't think there'd be many who don't." Callum replied.

"So which do you think is better? To have a girl suck you or a guy?" Bradley asked.

Alexander and David looked at each other and both smiled. Alexander was acting because he already knew their conversation was going to go along those lines. David smiled because he was hearing some talk that excited him and he felt he could get away with listening because there was no one to call him out on it.

"I don't know. They say that guys do it better than girls because guys know how guys' cocks work and know what to do to give the best feelings. But then letting a guy suck you is kind of gay." Callum said.

"I don't think so. I mean it could be, but I don't think that if you let a guy suck you that means you're definitely gay. I've heard that nearly all guys do a bit of guy on guy experimenting." Bradley said.

"Yeah, … but I'm …"

"Just think," Bradley interrupted Callum, "Instead of talking about it now, we could both be naked and jerking off, or jerking each other off. We could even be in a sixty-nine."

Alexander glanced over at David and saw that he had his hand in his lap and was trying to adjust his cock without it being obvious. Alexander put his hand down to the tent in his shorts and then lifted it up slightly when he saw that David was looking and put his hand down inside his shorts. "That talk has got me hard," he said as he adjusted his cock seemingly without caring that David was watching.

"Look, you're hard with us just talking about it." Bradley said.

"Well, I'm not the only one." Callum replied.

"And I'm not surprised. I'm perpetually horny. Here do you want to suck it and I can then tell you if boys are good." Bradley offered.

"In your dreams." Callum replied.

"Well it wouldn't be a night mare." Bradley said.

"You mean that if a guy offered to suck your cock you'd let him?" Callum asked.

"Yeah, why not? Not like there's any chance of him getting preggo is there?"

"No, of course not. But wouldn't you have to think about it first?" Callum asked.

"It would depend on the boy. I mean if someone as cute as Al were to ask I would drop my pants straight away. I know he can keep secrets. But if it was Dom's kid brother I probably would turn and run." Bradley said.

David looked up at a very red faced Alexander. Calling him cute had not been mentioned when they agreed the lines the conversation would follow. Then David grinned and leaned in close to Alexander and whispered, "But you are cute. If you asked to suck my cock I'd let you."

Alexander also whispered and asked, "And would you suck my cock if I asked?"

"I don't know. I like it when we jerk each other off, but putting something that has had piss in it into my mouth kind of worries me." David replied, forgetting to whisper and not realising that when the two older boys heard David talking they stopped to listen themselves.

"But if it had been washed properly and you knew it had been washed properly, would you do it then?" Alexander asked also using a normal voice.

"I might. I mean I'd like to find out what it's like to have your cock sucked, and I guess to get that I'd have to do it in return." David said.

The two older teens looked at each other and smiled. Then Callum said, "That David's a cute guy, would you let him suck you if he asked?"

"If Al told me that he would keep it secret, I probably would. I wonder if we could get him to ask." Bradley said.

"Well, I don't know if they've even seen each other naked, let alone if they've some interest in doing that sort of thing." Callum replied while the two younger boys just looked at each other with their hard-ons throbbing inside their shorts and silly grins on their faces.

David asked Alexander, "If Bradley asked you to suck him would you?"

"I think so. I mean I've wanted to see his cock for a long time. He has a nice bulge when his pants are tight and I think it's probably quite big. Would you suck Cal if you knew it was properly washed?" Alexander asked.

"I think I'd like to practice on you first. Then if I know I can do it, maybe I could do Callum as well." David said.

"Come and practice." Alexander invited as he pulled his shorts down.

"You got no undies on!" David observed.

"Yeah. It's a forfeit for a game I lost at. I can't say anything more. Sleepover rule." Alexander told David.

"Oh. Okay. What's it like to go with no undies?"

"Quite fun; you can feel it moving about inside your shorts or jeans and then you also have to be clever to hide it when you get a boner. You can go without undies today and part of tomorrow if you want to try it." Alexander offered.

"I don't know. It sounds exciting."

"Go on, try it. Take yours off now and then put your shorts back on and see what it's like while we're in the room. You can even see what it's like to suck me while you have no undies on." Alexander suggested.

"If I suck you will you suck me?" David asked.

"We could do it at the same time." Alexander said.

"How?" David asked.

"Haven't you heard of a sixty-nine?" Alexander asked surprised.

"I've heard people say it, but don't know what it is." David confirmed knowing that Alexander would not tease him for not knowing. After all it was Alexander who had told him once before that he had an older brother he could learn from while David had no other siblings.

"Okay; tell you what, let's leave the sucking for now because we probably need to think about it some more first and we can make sure we're clean in our shower tonight. Then I'll show you what a sixty-nine is. I've seen some pictures on the internet. So why don't you just take your undies off for now and we can go outside and do something." Alexander said.

"It is kind of naughty isn't it? And no one needs to know either." David said as he dropped his shorts and shucked his briefs off. Pulling up his shorts again he had to be careful when doing the zip to keep his boner out of it.

"We'll sit for a while to let the boners go down and then go out." Alexander said. "So what did you do over half-term?" he asked.

"Well we went away for a few days. Just to Blackpool but it was pretty boring. Mum and dad seemed to like it, but there was nothing really for me to do. You know they won't let me go in those penny arcades because it is just a waste of money. Fuck! They never let me do anything that's fun." David complained. "I mean, I know your mum had to do a lot to get my mum to let me come for tonight. Even when we were on holiday I still had to be in bed by half past eight every night."

Next door Bradley and Callum just shook their heads. Callum moved over to his desk and wrote a note to Bradley, "Let's make this sleepover the best we can for him." Bradley took the pen from Callum and wrote "you got it! Let's invite them to the park now." Callum just nodded his head and then jotted down, "Shall we go commando like them?" This time Bradley nodded his head and began to undo his fly. Once they had got their jeans back on and done up the two moved out the room and Callum knocked on Alexander's door.

"Hey guys, we're going to the park for a bit. Do you want to come with us?" Callum asked.

Alexander looked at David and nodded his head. David nodded back. "Yeah, we'll be out in a sec." Alexander answered for both of them and stood up. Their short talk on matters other than sex had let their boners go down and they moved towards the door. David spun around and dug in his bag to get out his hat. "It's not hot enough for that, leave it behind or you might forget it there." Alexander told him and David threw the hat onto the air mattress.

Callum called out to his parents that the four of them were going down to the park as they pulled their shoes on in the hall; and they were out the door. Once in the park they played around a bit on the swings and merry-go-rounds but soon tired of that and headed off to a quieter area where they sat down on the grass facing in to each other.

"So David, have you got a girlfriend?" Callum asked.

"No, never had one." He admitted.

"Oh, you got a boyfriend then?" Bradley teased.

"Not like the way you're meaning." David answered blushing.

"How about you Al? Any girls hiding in your cupboard?" Bradley asked taking some of the heat off David.

"If I did have, Cal would've told you already. And the same goes for boyfriends too." Alexander answered.

"Oh dear, sweet, what is it? Thirteen? And, never been kissed before." Bradley said.

"Only nearly thirteen." Alexander said.

"Well I'm thirteen next week and can't have a party because my parents say I'm too old for parties now." David said.

"Shit too young to pack for a night out by yourself, but too old to have a party. That's a real bummer." Alexander said.

"Yeah. Well then, we'll just have to make today and tomorrow count as your party." Bradley said.

"Are you sleeping over Brad?" Alexander asked.

"No! But I'll stay as late as I can if I can help to make it fun for David."

"Just for David?" Alexander asked pouting his lips but unable to hide the humour in his eyes so Bradley knew he was teasing.

"Well it was your turn in the tent last weekend, now it's Dave's turn. Fair's fair after all." Bradley returned also with that glint in his eye. "But if you're really jealous come here and I'll kiss it better."

"No ways! Mum told me never to kiss strange men." Alexander quickly responded.

"Strange! You've known me for years how can you call me a stranger?" Bradley replied acting hurt.

"I didn't call you a stranger, just strange." Alexander said.

"Touché." Callum said and chuckled.

"Oh! Is that how it is then, two brothers ganging up against me? David, are you going to help me?" Bradley asked.

"We're not ganging up against you. All I did was recognise that my little brother got the better of you in that little argument." Callum said.

"Mmmm … should I believe that? What do you think, David?" Bradley said.

"I think I like all this playing around. I don't get any of that with anyone else. It's fun when you can play like that and no one gets hurt because we all know it's just play. Wish I could be with you guys all the time." David said.

"Yeah, it is kind of fun and you don't get it with everyone. You only get it with those people you know and trust. Bradley and I know we can trust each other because we have proved it in our friendships. Alexander has proved it to us because of what he has kept secret for some time. And we think we can trust you because you're Alexander's friend and yet he's not told us anything private about you." Callum said.

"Alexander's my only real friend and so I don't have anyone to tell anything to anyway. But I wouldn't tell on anyone unless they said I could. I don't like others to find out secret things about me, so I can't do it to others." David said.

"You wouldn't even tell your mum or dad?" Bradley asked.

"Mum and dad are not my friends. I don't talk about things like that with them." David said.

"That's a shame because it's nice to be able to talk over things with your parents. I had something just this last week and my parents were so cool about it. I think I would call them my friends as well as my parents." Bradley said.

"That would be nice. My parents punished me for walking from the bathroom to my room with just a towel around me. I can't call them friends when other parents think nothing of that." David said.

"Shit! That's a bit mean. My mum saw me this week with just my towel around my waste and although she teased me it was just in fun. I didn't get into any trouble from it." Callum said.

"So, Mr. 'Soon to be teenager' David. What would you like for your party?" Bradley asked.

"Anything that's fun. I don't care." David answered.

"So if we go back home and throw some buckets of cold water over Al and then roll him around in the mud would that do?" Bradley asked.

"No! It's got to be fun for everyone or it's not fun at all." David said. Alexander looked at him gratefully; he was beginning to wonder just what his boyfriend was up to.

"I'm so glad to hear that. So often you go to a party and the birthday boy thinks it doesn't matter who gets hurt as long as he gets what he wants. I think you're a caring person who wants to see everybody keep happy." Bradley said. "And don't worry Al, we weren't really going to throw buckets of cold water over you."

"But rolling you around in some mud sounds like it might be fun." Callum teased.

"And you'd be the first person I hug to say thank you." Alexander shot back.

"Touché!" Bradley chortled recognising that Alexander had just got one over his brother as well.

"Come on, let's go home and see if we can make a party for David." Callum suggested.

Once they were home, Callum invited them all into his room so that they could plan. No sooner had they got into the room than Callum said he needed a pee and left the room. Alexander became a bit curious when he realised he could hear Callum going down the stairs. When Callum returned to the room, Alexander looked at him with a question in his expression. Callum just touched his finger to his nose and shook his head gently. Fortunately Alexander knew he would find out sometime and so did not press the issue.

Sitting down on the floor with the other three Callum said, "So what sort of party games do you like David?"

"I don't really know. What I do know is that I don't like the ones that mum's always made us do at parties."

"Like what?" Bradley asked.

"Games that make you look silly; like pin the tail on the donkey."

"Yes that's nearly as bad as ring-a-roses." Bradley agreed and the other three all groaned in unison demonstrating that they agreed with him.

"Well we could perhaps play some card games." Alexander said.

"I don't think snap is very entertaining." Callum offered.

"I wasn't thinking of snap. More like poker." Alexander said.

"What'll we use for stakes? Matches?" Callum asked.

"Yeah or we could do forfeits for losing." Alexander said.

"Or strip poker." Bradley suggested. "What do you think David?"

"I don't know. I've never played poker before." David admitted. "We don't have cards in the house. Mum says they're the tools of idle hands."

"Right then I suggest we have some fun teaching you how to use your idle hands." Bradley said. "Poker with clothing for stakes."
