Our system failed

I gasped did I hear that?
"Wwwwhat?" I whimpered. My voice already cracking, my world starting to crush me but I needed to be sure I just heard what he said.

"Sorry Cole, his mum called me ten minutes a go, he didn't suffer!!!!!" Brandon was uncontrollably crying now but he sniffed up."He swerved and just couldn't escape what happened next."

I dropped to my knees, Ethan reacted quickly and wrapped his strong arms around me as the tears hit me and I screamed loud and long. I was incoherent when Ste and Kyle came running down the corridor so fast they almost skidded past my room.

"Brandon what's going on? You got a call screamed and took off over here." Ste said panting.

Kyle was more concerned about me he came over dropped to his knees and Ethan let him grab and hug me. Both me and Brandon could not talk now, I guessed both our world's had collapsed. Ethan had tears but was able to answer the concerned stares. He swallowed hard.

"Brandon got a call from Riley's mum, as he was going to his next tournament a kid ran out in front of his car, Riley swerved to avoid the kid and straight into an oncoming lorry. He died an hour ago."

Kyle gripped me harder as tears filled his eye's. Ste completely stunned staggered through the door and collapsed on my bed. We all just stayed in silence crying hardly able to take in what had unfolded. Ste finally composed himself.

"Kyle stay here with them I will be back soon. I have got to go talk to the Diem, Cole I will try sorting the rest of this semester off for you, your grade's are above average so there isn't much left till the break so you should be passed as you are."

I just nodded. Ste left. It took a while but I eventually calmed down. As the rest did as well.

"What do I do now?" I asked.

"Just leave that to me a Ste." Kyle replied. "If Ste sort's it Ethan will take you home. Come back for the funeral, then go away until the next semester, decide what you want to do going forward." Kyle added.

Ste came back about an hour later. I had been given a semester pass, I packed a few bit's said goodbye and left with Ethan. The drive home was so weird, we sat in almost complete silence. Ethan kept looking over at me I could see the concern all over his face. I kept giving him unconvincing smile's, in truth I was glad I was with my brother. When we pulled up at my parents house they were shocked to see me. Ethan being able to drive was always visiting but I only visited for holidays, so seeing me gave them concern. We explained my roommate had died and I cried even more telling my parents. We explained I had been given a pass. My parents accepted it stating  he was a friend and being upset was natural.

I was numb over the next few days, with random outbursts of crying, however when I felt it coming on I went to my room. Ethan tried to keep me occupied without making any sexual advances, which was hard for him. After being home for a few days I was in the lounge just relaxing when both my parents came in.

"Cole are you OK son?" My dad asked as he and my mum sat down with concerned looks on their face's.

"Am OK dad" I lied and they knew it.

"Cole you can tell us anything, I mean look at your brother there's no taming him." We laughed it felt good a little to feel cheer but I knew it wouldn't last. I wanted to say "tame him if only you knew what Ethan and now me were doing at college we wouldn't be laughing." I tried brushing it off.

"It's just I shared a room for almost a year and he was a friend dad, just the shock we were even in the Sam frat." The news I was in a frat took them by surprise but they came for one thing and they were going to get it.

"When did you fall in love with him?" My mum asked. The question especially coming so straight from my mum caught me off guard.

"Llloovvee who?" I swallowed hard.

"Riley your roommate?" She said back.

I felt myself burning. "Emm erh wwww hhhaa tttt?" My parents didn't know I was gay or so I thought.

"Cole you may not be home now but we brought you up for eighteen years, I think I know you better so please son don't hide it. We accepted your brother when he told us and we thought you might be as well but you don't tell us much." My mum looked at me, I knew I was beat. I intended to tell them in my own time but it seemed they were too concerned and it had been taken out of my hands.

"There was an incident a few weeks ago and Riley left for three weeks but I have had feelings for him for a few months. He was a great guy." I started welling up again it was the first time I spoke about Riley in the past tense. My mum came and hugged me tight.

"It's OK Cole we will be here for you whenever you need us." She said .
"We were together the night before, when I got accepted to the frat it was only a new thing that's why I hadn't told you. We were together the morning he died aswell." I didn't see the need to tell them I had given most of the frat oral and fucked one of them or even more the fact me and Ethan had played together.

"What do you mean together son?" My mum asked. I looked at my dad and he said.

"I think we know what he means Mary."

"Oh was he the first for you son?" She asked. I just cried and nodded.

"OK son now we know how bad it is for you, you can come to me and your mum whenever you need us son."

I just wept and went up to mine and Ethan's room. Ethan was on his bed listening to music.

"He bro you OK?" He asked.

"Mum and dad know I am gay and Riley and me done things. Nothing else though."

"Yeah best we leave our reputations at college." He smiled.

5 minutes later there was a knock on our door. Dad came in carrying two six packs of bud and a cooler.

"I thought you two could do with these, just don't leave the empties up here." He dropped them on the floor and put the beers in the cooler. He turned about to leave when Ethan said.

"Dad stay and have one with us."

"That will leave and odd number and I don't want you two fighting over it." He laughed.

"You will have to have two then." I said opening three and passing them to Ethan and my dad.

"You boys doing OK at college?" He asked.

"Yeah." Ethan answered so did I after.

"Can I ask if you two have done anything to each other?" He asked next.

We both said no a bit to quick and forceful. "So that's a yes then." He said. We both went crimson. "OK I know Ethan has been itching since he came out to do stuff with you Cole and now I guessed you must have. Your both good looking lads it would be to much to hope you hadn't done anything together. If you are going to do it here please be more careful than when you were sniffing each others boxer's. Your mum doesn't need to know." With that he grabbed another bud and walked out the room leaving me and Ethan stunned.

After we had downed another couple each Ethan looked at me and grinned. He walked over to my bed grabbed my bottoms and underwear at the band and yanked them down. He started licking my balls and cock up and down. My cock reacted by stiffening up. He then glided his mouth over me. I arched my back up grabbing fistfuls of my bedding, squeezing my eyes shut I let out a moan. It was the first time since the afternoon Riley died when me and Ethan went at it. I had neglected my cock due to grief. Ethan worked me nice and slow going up and down all the way twisting his head as he did. All I could do was moan as it felt so good. It had only been a few days but it felt like my cock hadn't been used in ages considering since mine and Riley's encounter the first and second time it had been in use practically everyday for three weeks. The break was good but what Ethan was doing was even better. I lay back breathing heavy watching Ethan move up and down my cock,he really knew what he was doing and I could feel a huge load building in my balls just swishing around but going nowhere I wasn't ready yet this blow job was so good I was going to fight until I was exhausted. Ethan began a vigorous assault on my cock speeding up sending my body into a spasm.

I was panting hard. "Quick Ethan I need a gag or distraction." Less than a second later he tossed me his jock and instead of putting it in my mouth I sniffed it. It was a bit fresh with soap but I could smell his sweat, piss and cum. It worked I was no longer on the verge of screaming but I was ready to let Ethan have my load so I relaxed and let it flow up my shaft and explode filling his mouth as he swallowed frantically to get it all. Breathing hard I ruffled his hair in appreciation and turned over and raised my ass up inviting him to rim and fuck me. Ethan looked at me as if to say "can I?" I looked back saying "make it good."

Ethan didn't need a second invitation he stuck his tongue deep in me causing me to tense up with pleasure. This time I shoved his jock in my mouth before grabbing the bedding and moaning into his jock. Ethan got my hole nice and wet then moved me to the edge of the bed before ramming his cock hard into me hard. I screamed in pain but it was muffled and Ethan had been waiting for years so I let him continue. He was fucking me hard and fast I didn't think he would last too long but this was Ethan anything was possible with him. I had no idea how he could do it but within 5 minutes my cock was hard and dripping pre cum again. His constant assault on my spot had me writhing in pleasure my eyes rolled back and I was rocking back onto him every time he pounded into me. Me moaning and Ethan panting all of a sudden our door opened.

"OK boys I got your washi........ OH MY GOD FRANK ETHAN IS FUCKING COLE." 

My mum ran out the room repeating "Ethan's fucking Cole." All the way down the stairs. Our washing was scattered. I spat Ethan's jock out and said. " you got 5 minutes to finish before dad comes up or we are summoned. " Ethan let rip into me fucking me hard both moaning as we both reached climax within a couple of minutes, all we could hear was muffled sounds of my dad trying to calm my mum down. We barley had time to get dressed as we were shouted down by my dad.

We entered the lounge not able to look at my mum.

"Yes very discrete boys well done your mum almost had a heart......... Hahahah." My dad started laughing uncontrollably. We looked up mum wasn't impressed.

"Frank why are you laughing?" She asked.

"I just pictured your face dear when you realized what they were doing." Tears now streaming from his eyes.

"Boys despite your father's reaction this isn't funny, ETHAN." She snapped. "You think just cause you find out your brother is gay it gives you the right to fuck him?" Mum wasn't happy and it was only getting worse with my dad laughing.

"He fucked me first." Ethan snapped. I thought "great that will help ETH."

My dad managed to compose himself. "Calm down Mary, you remember college?" He asked.

"Yes but they are brothers or have you forgot? Twins even. She snapped back. Dad had an answer.

" If they weren't your boys and you were their age you would be trying I know if I was gay and younger I would,  I mean look at your son's they are very good looking boys." I didn't know weather to laugh or be sick at what he said. It worked as mum mum calmed down.

My dad seized the opportunity. "Boys will be boys their good looking young lads who yeah are twins but also gay and no one will get pregnant, they won't be together if they want to have fun let them or they will keep us out of there life and they are 18."

"I can't believe I am going to say this, if you are going to do that here boys lock your door. Now someone get me a stiff brandy." She said. Ethan rushed off and grabbed three beers and a brandy for mum which she knocked back in one so he got her another. It seemed to loosen her up and me and Ethan escaped quite lightly.  

We all sat and had a few drinks even laughing as a family. It was a nice night even mum joked which made me feel better but the biggest test was to come. We bonded as a family over the next few days, me and Ethan bonding more. Then came the funeral.

I had been dreading this day since the accident not only because I had to say goodbye to the first guy I truly loved but I hadn't spoke to any of the frat lad's either. Ethan had a few times but seeing them would have been too raw and I wasn't ready to deal with that so soon. Then there was Kyle. The last time we had properly spoke was just after Riley died and the time before was just after Riley fucked me all night. I wasn't sure how he would be with me or me with him as I still had very strong feelings for him but would he feel he had me cause I now have no other choice? I asked Ethan the day before to tell the guys if I didn't speak to them at the funeral I wasn't being rude it was just way too raw for me. I still felt partly responsible for his death if I hadn't fucked with his head or let him fuck me and do things the night before he might have been more focused on the road instead of being euphoric. I seen the entire frat outside the church as well as so many other's. I seen Riley's parents with Edwin but I didn't approach before the service. However with my back turned I felt a soft touch and turned there was Riley's parents and stood back from them was Edwin, Brad, Ste, Kyle and a lad I had never seen before. I wondered if it was Shane but it was Riley and Edwin's cousin Oscar. I thought fuck is every male in this family hot he had just turned 18 and was slim athletic short black hair, deep brown eyes cute baby faced and turns out he was about to go to our College after summer and for sure was going to pledge with our frat.
Riley's parents pulled me a side.

" Your Cole yes?" His mum asked. I nodded.

"You made my son the happiest he had been in years on his last night and he really loved you so thank you."

I was stunned and started to fill up with tears. His dad gave me a tissue. "I thought the world of Riley, I liked him from the first day I met him." I managed through tears.

"We know and we know what the two of you did on that last night Riley was so happy he called me to say he had found someone special and couldn't wait for us to meet you and from what Ed has said since I just wish it was under better circumstances. Anyway we would like you to carry him when he gets here?"
I agreed. The service was moving Brandon and Edwin both got up and said nice things there wasn't a dry eye at the end. I was glad Ethan was with me, my parents wanted to take the day off but I told them it was fine. We had a mini wake at a local hall once the family apart from Edwin and Oscar had left Ste suggested we go to the frat house and have a proper send off. I was reluctant but Ethan told me it might be good for me. I thought he was only thinking about his dick but he was being sincere so I agreed.

We were the last to arrive and boy did I get a shock. Kyle spotted me and asked me to his bed room. I hadn't been in it before but I was stunned when I entered. It was two bed however the other bed had boxes on it.

"Is Oscar sharing with you?" I asked.

"Open them." He said with a smile on his face. I did.

"I hope your not angry, I just thought it would be too hard for you to go back to that room so I made arrangements for you to move here. I hope I haven't crossed a line."

I couldn't contain myself, I hadn't thought about my return and what Kyle said struck a nerve, how could I go back to that room. I ran across the room and flung my arms around Kyle and just let it all out. He stood there holding me tight and let me cry. Once I settled there was an awkward silence until I had to know.

"Where do we stand?"

"That's up to you Cole." Kyle replied.

"Will it be awkward knowing I probably would have chosen Riley?" I asked.

"Don't get me wrong it would have been hard for me you did, however if everyone in the world held that attitude then lots of relationships would never start and we both have strong enough feelings not to try if you want to."
I couldn't help myself I had to kiss him so I did and he kissed back the sparks were just as strong but a sudden rush of guilt came over me, I stopped.
"What's wrong Cole?"

I don't think he needed an answer but I gave him one. "Feels too soon sorry."

"Don't be I can wait." Kyle replied. "Do you want me to unpack for when you get back?" He asked.

"Not sure there maybe a few bits of washing, I did leave in a hurry." I answered.

"I can sort that out if we are going to share I am sure you will be smelly in here." We chuckled.

"Guess so thanks and your the athlete bet you will smell more." We laughed again.

"Yeah and we know how much you like that." We had to stop and head downstairs. Before we did I wanted to try something.

"Kyle can I blow you?" I asked.

"What here now?"

"Yeah, kissing is intimate but sucking can be fun." I replied.

He dropped his pants and boxers, he was monster even soft, I started sucking him and was able to take him soft. As I worked harder he moaned louder as his dick grew in my moth and it was getting more difficult to take him all the way but I was persistent and determined. When he reached peak length I had opened enough to take him easier than the first time and he was biting his lips and moaning lots starring in amazement.

"Fuck Cole, I still can't believe you can do this." He managed through baited breath.

I was guiding my mouth up and down him with ease licking his long thick shaft and sucking hard on his head bring louder groans from him. I started picking my speed up rotating as I did. His manhood filling my mouth and most of my throat at this point. This brought him to his euphoric high and with a loud grunt he unloaded in my mouth, this time I was ready for his huge load and was able to swallow it all but it filled me up. I stood up and looked at Kyle who had the biggest smile on his face.

"You OK?" He asked.

"Yeah you?"

"Cloud 9 Cole I hope that's the first of many in this room.?" He said with a cheecky grin.

"Well we are sharing." I grinned back and we went down stairs.

The party was in full swing, as I reached the bottom step I scanned the house everyone seemed to be getting on with it, a tinge of sadness came over me I looked again and realized this is what Riley would have wanted. I grabbed a beer and headed out back stood alone until Ste seen me and came over.

"New digs OK Cole?"

"I can get used to them." I replied.

"I was going to put you with Brad knowing how conflicted you must be but Kyle put up one hell of a fight and my ass can't take a mass beating off him, even I am accountable in the frat." He smiled.

"It's cool, it would be even more awkward if I wasn't with Kyle, I have strong feelings still and don't want to give the wrong impression."

Ethan came across. "Who is that hunk? Why haven't I met him?" Pointing at Kyle.

"You have met him." Ste said. "He gave you a hard whipping remember?"

"That's Kyle?, it was dark down there and he blindfolded me before I had a chance to check him out." We laughed. They both wondered off. I was then approached by Oscar.

"Hey man, you OK?" He said. " Oscar." He stuck out his hand.

"Cole." I shook it.

" Ah sorry man I know you and Riley had a thing, after Shane I didn't think he would have gone near a guy."

"What exactly happened there I heard bits but not the whole thing." I lied didn't know a thing.

"Oh well Shane was Edwin's best friend, but Edwin always flirted with him we all knew he was trying to do more. Shane had a thing for Riley and when Edwin went away to a tournament for a few weeks Riley and Shane hit it off to a point they arranged a meeting to lose their virginity with each other."

"What happened?" I asked getting somewhere.

"Then day came but Edwin came back early and Riley was held up. Edwin was in their room naked, Shane let himself in and found Edwin but he thought it was Riley, and said I am ready to fuck you now. Edwin didn't realise he meant Riley and let him. Riley caught them and went ballistic at them and Shane went ballistic at Edwin even thought it was innocent."

"Go on." I encouraged feeling anger towards Brandon build.

"Riley wouldn't talk to either of them, turns out Shane had it really bad and when Riley kept rejecting him he couldn't handle it and hung himself. Riley felt guilty and wouldn't talk to Edwin for ages over a year."

My blood boiled how knowing this could Brandon bring Edwin here and risk the same thing all over again. It was the final piece I needed and even though I shouldn't I had lost it time to confront Brandon.

"Would you excuse me please Oscar." I said.

"Sure."

I marched back to the house looking for Brandon he wasn't inside.
Edwin seen me. "You OK Cole?"

I flashed him an evil look. "How could you come here after what happened?" I said it cold.

"Wwwhhhhoooo?" He stammered.

"Oscar guess you didn't give him the don't tell Cole memo." I stormed off spotting Brandon on the front lawn talking with Ste, Kyle and Ethan. I storm over and without think drew my fist swung and connected square on his chin knocking him to the ground.

"YOU SICK BASTARD HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO YOUR BEST FRIEND KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED?"
