To those who are devoted followers of this series: I apologize greatly for this chapter taking so long. I had been writing/publishing for Kindle now, and working on two novels at once, so I completely forgot about Trading Secrets until recently. I really just wrote it for fun at first, but the second chapter did so well that I'm compelled to finish the third. I cannot promise that the fourth chapter will come any sooner, since I have novels in progress and about a million other projects, but I will do my best to try to fit it in between them sometime.
Thank you for reading and giving me the confidence to write professionally!

Both Kevin and Andrew looked at Kyle like two deer caught in headlights, and neither of them knew what to say at first. Kevin was still awkwardly mounted upon Andrew, panting heavily through his nose, his sweaty hair sticking to his face.
"Well, come on guys, are you going to answer me, or what?" Kyle sounded as if he were beginning to laugh.
"About a year..." Andrew finally confessed, his legs still around his father's back. Kevin quickly grabbed a blanket and covered both he and his son with it, his face and shoulders suddenly turning a bright shade of crimson.
"It's a little late for that, Kev!" Kyle cackled. "I just saw a live porno featuring you and your son. I don't think you have any room to be coy, here."
Kevin, who was still blushing, finally allowed Andrew to lower his legs and he hid his ashamed face in his son's shoulder. He was using the comforter to wipe off the sticky mess between his and Andrew's legs while Andrew began to frantically wipe the semen off of his own face. "Look, Kyle," he began. "I know it looks bad and disgusting, and honestly, we've been trying to think of a way to tell you guys for a long time." Kyle was strangely silent and was patiently listening to him. "We wanted you guys to know. We wanted to tell you, so badly, but we couldn't lose your guys' friendship. I'm really sorry, we should have told you. The both of you."
Kyle heaved a sigh, looking over at his brother, who was sitting up in the neighboring bed, staring in their direction. "I can't believe this."
"I know, I'm so sorry, Kyle. I understand if you're upset with us, and if you want to stop being our friends, I'll let you go with respect, knowing that we had let you down."
"Kevin, hold on, buddy, okay? Chill for a second. Before I say anything else, just know that Jack and I would never leave you guys."
Kevin looked down at his son's face, and Andrew was covering it in shame with his palm. He then looked at Jack, who was watching them with enlightened curiosity, and he seemed... pleased?
"Kevin, Andrew," Jack was saying in amusement. "I always kind of thought something was going on between you both." He then smirked and snickered.
"I guess it's hard for us to keep secrets..." Andrew muttered with his hand still over his face.
Kyle leaned over his friend and second cousin, who were both naked on top of each other, and switched on one of the bedside lamps. "Well, yeah, especially when you make them really obvious by fucking each other while we're in the room."
"We couldn't help it..." Andrew groaned.
"We were holding it in pretty much all day," Kevin admitted. "I think I especially was going to go insane if I didn't touch him soon. He's my drug, okay?"
Kyle and Jack eyed each other and swapped matching grins. "Jack and I are going to have a chat with each other alone for a minute, okay guys?" Kyle said to them. Kevin and Andrew stiffly nodded, not looking at either of them. Kyle got out of the bed the Neils were playing in, then motioned for Jack to follow him into the bathroom. Jack obeyed him and got out of bed, following him into the restroom as Kevin and Andrew hid from their gaze.
Once the Phillips brothers were inside, Kyle shut the door and looked at Jack intensely. "Can you believe this?!"
Jack shrugged, then nodded. "Yeah, I can, actually."
"Well, okay, I can believe it, too. I always suspected it. But, what I mean is, this is fantastic! We don't have to hide from them anymore!"
"I was thinking the same thing! I've always felt so guilty for never telling Kevin about what we used to do together, even when I thought he'd get a real kick out of it."
"Oh we both knew he would have
liked
it, but we were still afraid that he'd feel like we weren't normal. Now we can relate with him and Andrew!"
"I know. I'm excited about it, too."
"So." Kyle looked at Jack seriously. "Do you want to tell them, then?"
"Of course I do! Now, there's no reason not to!"
"Also, was that or wasn't that really hot to watch?"
Jack smirked and nodded. "You know, I wasn't going to bring it up to you, but it did make me pretty hot."
"I've never really felt anything close to sexual arousal when it came to Kevin, or Andrew for that matter. I don't personally want to have sex with them, but, watching them do it with each other... I don't know. I got a hard-on. Is that bad?"
Jack smirked. "No. I got one, too."
"Maybe they'd find it hot watching
us
."
Jack scratched the fuzz on his chin. "Possibly. I've never done it in front of people, though."
"Oh, come on, Jack, they're not just any people, they're Kevin and Andrew! They're our best friends, even more than that, they're like our second family!"
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Jack could hear heated arguing coming from outside of the bathroom. "We better go calm them down, I think they're pretty scared right now."
"You're right, come on." Kyle and Jack quickly exited the bathroom, and Kevin and Andrew ceased their argument. "Guys?" As the brothers approached the bed Kevin and Andrew were on, Kyle saw that they were now lying side-by-side covered by the comforter, and they both looked incredibly tense. "Okay, guys, relax, all right?" Kyle soothed. "Everything's just fine. We're not upset, and I know you think we're grossed out, but we're not." Both Kevin and Andrew stared at him. "The truth is... Jack and I have a little confession of our own."
"You do?" Kevin incredulously asked.
"Most of the reason why we understand you both is because..." Kyle took a deep breath and sighed, then smiled on the corner of his mouth. "Jack and I just recently reactivated a long dormant physical intimacy we used to share, back when we were all in our twenties."
Both Kevin and Andrew looked surprised. "You're fucking with us," Andrew concluded.
"On the contrary, Andrew, I'm not. If you'll let us, we'll explain how it happened."
Kevin smirked with intrigue. "We're all ears. Please do."
"Do you remember when I was twenty and I ended up moving back home for a while? That music store I worked for ended up letting a bunch of the newer people go, and I was one of them. Jack was still living with our parents, so he was there when I moved in." He sat down on the bed, and Jack did as well. "Well... I got my own room, and moved my futon couch into it to sleep on, had the space all to myself for a while." He grinned and wiped a hand over his mouth. "To make a long story short, one afternoon I decided to watch some porn in my room and jack off. I was lying down with my back to the door, just mindlessly rubbing my dick, and I didn't even hear or notice my door open."
Kevin instinctively glanced at Kyle's younger brother, already fully aware of where the tale was going. "Jack was watching you, wasn't he?"
"Ohh yeah. He sure was." Kyle tried to smile at Jack when he hid his face in humiliation. "He wasn't just watching me, either. When I caught him, he had his dick out, and it was pretty hard."
"Of course, naturally and understandably, Kyle was really shocked to see me there stroking my cock at the sight of him masturbating," Jack continued. "He was a little mad at first, told me to get out, and threw his underwear at me. I was so fucking embarrassed. I ran to my own room and hid." He laughed at the ridiculous memory. "I still had a huge boner, though, and I needed to get off as soon as possible. I couldn't stop thinking about Kyle playing with his dick. It got me so fucking hot. I never thought I'd have a thing for my brother, but when I saw him sprawled out there on that futon, naked, beating on his cock, I just lost it. It was one of the hottest things I had ever seen."
Kyle was nodding in agreement to the list of events and how they played out. "I felt bad for being so harsh with him. When I saw him, it felt worse than it actually, truly was. After thinking about it for a minute or two, I went back to his room to apologize to him and talk, because we have always been so close, and I didn't want something like that to affect us badly. I didn't bother getting dressed. Maybe I wanted him, subconsciously, and that was the real reason I wanted to speak to him. Regardless of the reasons, I snuck into his room, and now I was watching him instead, only he noticed me right away."
"We were both jerking off," Jack lustfully remembered, a clear erection forming in his underwear. "He had come into my room and shut the door, standing naked in the doorway, just watching me. He asked if there was something I... wanted. I couldn't even believe he asked, and I said, 'Like what?'"
"I told him that we were obviously both really horny, that we might as well do something together." Kyle shrugged matter-of-factly. "Then he told me, in the hottest voice I had ever heard, that he wanted to see what it was like for me to fuck him. I took him up on it. Seemed harmless enough."
"No, don't stop there," Kevin interjected with a wide, horny grin on his face. "Give us the juicy details."
"Yeah, please do," his son added.
Kyle tossed his hands into the air, then draped his torso across the bedspread beside his younger brother. "All right, all right. So, my dear brother was lying spread eagle on his bed... naked as the day he was born... begging me with his eyes while stroking his hard-on. I had never seen Jack look at me like that before, nor had I watched him pull on his cock, but I found that when I did see it, I liked it. Our parents were gone, out to dinner or something, and we figured we'd take advantage of our alone time. So I climbed into the bed with him... and we started making out. I had never, ever before thought about sticking my tongue in my brother's mouth, but when I did it, I was blown away by it, and at how much I just fucking loved it! Almost like we were always attracted to one another and never said anything to each other about it."
