Benji's POV:

I could feel small fingers poking my face, and heard quiet laughs. I finally opened my eyes and glared at Quincy, who was sitting on top of me.

"Benji, come on, I'm hungry!" Quincy lightly punched my bare chest and I groaned again, closing my eyes.

"Make yourself some cereal, Quincy, I'm too...tired..." I trailed off and felt myself slowly slip back into sleep.

I felt Quincy move off me and I sighed, flipping over onto my stomach and falling back to sleep.

I suddenly woke up again when more weight landed on top of me, forcing the air to be pushed out of me.

"Benji, come on, I'm hungry, too!" I groaned when I heard Kian's voice and flipped us around, placing him under me while I laid on top of him.

"I have no problem falling asleep like this, Kian..." I closed my eyes and heard Kian gasp for air beneath me. I huffed and moved off of him, my left arm still being over his chest. "I'm not that heavy..."

"Yes, you are. You've gained weight because you've been working out every other day, so you've gotten heavier. Benji." I heard Rami say, then felt weight on my lower back.

I whined and wanted nothing more than to sleep. I felt Rami lay fully on top of me, then felt his lips land on my neck.

"I'm hungry, too."

"Do you guys not know how to make cereal?!" I finally flipped onto my back and glared at each of them.

"We'll burn the house down." Kian said firmly and I scoffed.

"It's just milk and cereal, that's it!" I scowled, and Rami nodded.

"Yeah, but we'll still burn the house down."

Quincy climbed onto the bed and smiled cheekily. "You can make us some breakfast now, Benji! You're awake."

I nodded, then shook my head. "I have an idea, you can make a bowl of cereal for yourself, and the twins."

"No!" They all yelled out and I closed my eyes again, deciding to ignore them and just go back to sleep.

I groaned when Rami moved his ass over my lap, and placed a pillow over my head. I was slowly falling back to sleep, but jumped when I felt sharp pain on my shoulder.

I turned my head and saw Rami biting me, his nails beginning to dig into my sides. I bit my lower lip and pulled on his hair, hearing him whine as he let go.

"Ow! Benji-" He pouted and I finally let go of his hair, switching our positions around again.

"You see, this is what happens when you annoy me when I'm trying to sleep. Apparently, you don't know how to let someone sleep, so I have no problem getting back at you my way." I glared at him and pulled away, moving off the bed.

I walked to the bathroom and did my morning routine, walking back to my room and seeing that Quincy was being cuddled by Kian. Rami was just laying his head on his brother's shoulder and watching the both of them. I walked past them and headed downstairs to the kitchen.

After a few minutes of deciding what to make, I chose to make some waffles. I got all of the ingredients out to make them homemade, then grabbed the waffle-maker. I didn't forget to make some eggs, bacon, and sausage.

Once everything was ready, I called everyone down and heard multiple pairs of feet run down the stairs. I leaned against the counter and waited as I looked out of the backdoor, seeing that it was a bit cloudy today.

"Thank you, Benji." Rami and Kian kissed my cheeks, then began plating their food.

Quincy hugged my waist, "Thank you, Benji."

"You're welcome." He kissed my chest and I smiled, patting his head. "Do you want some help?"

He nodded so I grabbed a plate, and started helping him. He took it to the table and I then gathered two waffles, some eggs, and bacon on my own plate.

I sat down next to Quincy and asked where Reece was. "He said he wasn't really hungry, and would eat later."

I nodded and we all began eating, making some small talk here and there. Once we finished, Rami and Kian cleaned the kitchen, while Quincy and I went outside to the backyard.

"Xavier's coming home today." I told Quincy and he nodded with a small smile.

"I'm happy, but I want Enzo here with us, too."

I agreed and kissed his head, gently rubbing his side as I stared at the pool. I felt like going in, but not right now since I just finished eating.

Rami and Kian soon joined us outside, but they went to the side of the house and grabbed the mini carts, and chased each other around the backyard for a while.

Once they got bored, they stopped in front of us, but stayed seated in them and went on their phones. I was peeking at Rami, and got up, placing Quincy down on the chair I was sitting on, and walked up behind Rami.

I easily grabbed his phone from his hands and threw it on the grass.

"Hey!"

I picked him up and walked to the pool, jumping and hearing Rami yell before we were engulfed in the cold water. I swam back up and laughed as Rami panted and wiped his face, his eyes glaring at me while he scowled.

"I didn't want to get in the pool."

"Too late, you're in here now." I chuckled and felt him splash the side of my face as I was beginning to swim away. I stopped and stared at him. "Wait, Benji, I was just playing—!"

I quickly swam over to him and pushed him against the wall of the pool, slipping my arms around his waist." Oh, Rami..."

"I said I'm sorry, Benji." He pouted, which made me quietly laugh.

"I know, but-"

"Let go of my brother!" Arms wrapped around my neck and I was pulled back, hearing Kian laugh obnoxiously into my ear. "Run, Rami!"

While I struggled to unwrap Kian's arms, Rami swam away and ran around the corner of the house. Kian finally let go of me and I turned around, grabbing him and smirking.

"I guess you'll take the hit for your brother, then."

He gasped, then yelled for Rami. "Rami, come back!"

"He won't come back for you, Kian. He would rather sacrifice his brother than himself." I swam away with him and carried him out of the pool, setting him down on his feet.

I managed to take off my sweats and pulled Kian to the hot tub. I stepped in and pulled him down on top of my lap so that my chest was to his back, pushing my legs between his own and spreading them apart.

"Let's see if your brother will come rescue you." I moved my right hand down to the front of his shorts and stuck my hand inside, taking hold of his flaccid member to grip him tightly.

Kian cried out and panted, his hands moving down to hold onto my forearms. I lowered my head and kissed his neck, trailing my left hand down to his shorts to squeeze his sac.

"Oh shit..." Kian let his head fall to the side and I flicked my tongue over, lightly scraping my teeth along his skin.

I slowly stroked his member and scraped his tip. He whined loudly and twitched in my hand. My left hand moved behind his sac and I rubbed his hole, feeling the slightly firm skin that made me chuckle lightly.

"When was the last time you had a fun time?" I moved my left hand away and wrapped it around his stomach instead.

"About a-a week ago."

"Wow...that's crazy considering you and Rami have sex basically every other day." I lightly kissed his shoulder.

"How...would you know?" Kian blushed, which made me turn his head.

"How would I know?" He nodded and I turned him around. "I know because you and Rami always talk about it, and the rest of us will occasionally walk in on you guys...so that's how we know."

Kian pouted, his hands moving around my shoulders. "Well...I'm not sure what to say to that."

I shrugged and kissed his cheek, gently resting my face against his own. "Then don't say anything, but I do need you to be a bit more...vocal."

I gripped his member tighter than before and Kian cried out louder. I smirked and patiently waited for Rami to come back.

"What are you doing to him?!" Rami came running around the corner and stopped in front of the hot tub. He looked in the water and gasped. "Are you having sex with him?!"

I scoffed and gently pulled Kian away from me. "As if I would ever do that with him!"

Kian frowned, "I feel a bit offended..."

"No offense, but I would never do that unless...we both became really horny and there was no one else around." I shrugged and he nodded.

"Yeah, I guess..."

Rami stepped into the water and pulled Kian away from me, looking down at the front of his shorts. "I can't believe you would grab him like that, Benji."

"Like what?"

"So rough! His cock is so red, he looks like he's about to burst..." Rami shook his head and clicked his tongue, looking up at his brother. "I have to fix this, K."

Kian blushed, but moved his arms around Rami, pecking his lips. "I guess you do..."

Quincy soon joined us in the hot tub and he sat next to me. "I didn't hear. What's about to happen?"

"Sex is about to happen right in front of us." I looked down at him and he blushed.

"Why...in here? What if Reece comes down?" He looked over at the twins and they looked at him, moving closer to us. "I'm sure you guys wouldn't want him to find out in case he freaks."

"We take risks, Quincy." Rami smirked and pulled Kian tightly against him. "If he sees, then-"

The backdoor slowly slid open and Rami pushed Kian onto my lap. "Don't act weird!"

Kian quickly fixed his shorts and grabbed my hands, wrapping them around his waist as he settled down against me.

"Good morning, Reece..." We looked up at him and he gave us a shy smile.

"Good morning, um, one of your guys' phone rang while I was eating..." He held out the phone, and I realized that it was mine.

"Oh, thanks." I took it from him once I dried my hands off the best I could, then unlocked my phone. Reece went back inside and I checked my missed calls, seeing that Dom had called me. "Oh, Dom called me..."

I called him back and heard the line pick up. "Dom?"

"Nope, it's Milo, Dom is driving. We just left the hospital and Xavier is with us, so we'll probably be there in an hour or so."

My heart sped up. "Alright, I guess I'll see you guys in a bit, then."

"Mhm, bye!" Milo quickly ended the call and I turned my phone off, setting it on the floor.

"What did he say?" Quincy asked.

"Milo said they're on their way with Xavier. They'll probably be here in an hour." I said and Rami's eyes widened.

"We have to get ready, then!"

We agreed and we got out of the hot tub, drying off the best we could before heading into the house and going to our rooms. I took a quick shower and chose a loose, blue shirt with some black, basketball shorts.

Quincy came into my room after a few minutes I laid down. He was wearing an oversized plain, white t-shirt and seemed to just be wearing briefs underneath that were hidden by the shirt.

"Who's big shirt is that?" I asked with my brow raised and Quincy blushed, watching him climb onto the bed and lay down next to me.

"I stole it from you from our last sleepover. It's really comfortable, so I just decided to keep it..." He looked away guiltily and I chuckled.

"It's ok, but are you wearing mini-shorts?" I lifted up the shirt a bit and saw that he was just wearing a pair of briefs under. "Hm, I guess not."

"What? It's been humid a lot lately, and I don't want to feel too hot." He finally looked up at me and I nodded.

"You're right..."

Quincy clicked his tongue, then turned to his side to look at me. "You think Xavier will be happy to be back home?"

I nodded, "I think he will, but we will have to give him his space like last time. He might sleep in one of the guest rooms for a while until his pills start working again."

Quincy then frowned. "What if he tries running away again? What if he gets bad again, Benji?"

"Well, we're just going to have to wait until Xavier gets home, and see what he does."

I was worried about Xavier. I just hoped that he doesn't want to go with those boys...Carmen and his two other friends, or whatever.

More than half an hour later, the front door opened and I looked at Quincy the same time he looked at me. We both got up and ran down the stairs, seeing Rami and Kian racing down already.

We slowed down once we reached the last step, and we watched Xavier look around the house with an unreadable face. He bit his lower lip, then looked at us, smiling softly.

"I really missed this place."

We all smiled and Quincy ran up to Xavier, his small arms wrapping around his waist. "Daddy, I love you so much."

Xavier's face brightened just a bit and he hugged Quincy, kissing his head. "I missed you too, baby."

He looked up at the rest of us and smiled, his right arm gesturing us to come closer. We walked towards him and gently wrapped each other up into a bigger hug with Xavier in the middle.

I gently kissed his cheek and he tilted his head back, his hand landing on my left cheek. Leaning into his hand, he moved closer and gently pecked my lips.

"I missed all of you guys so much." We pulled away and Xavier smiled, then looked past us to look at Reece, squinting at us playfully. "You guys have been taking care of him, right?"

Kian nodded, and held onto Xavier's hand. "We have, I mean, I think we have. Have we been doing good, Reece?"

He looked at the smaller boy, who nodded shyly and walked closer. "I'd say that they've been doing pretty good."

Xavier went over to Reece and hugged him, quietly talking with him. Reece seemed to relax around him, and I furrowed my brows, feeling arms wrap around my waist.

"I missed you, baby..." My head was turned and I met Dom's lips for a gentle kiss. "Did you have a sleepover with Quincy?"

"Yeah. Quincy and the twins woke me up to make breakfast, and I got...kind of mad..." I looked away guiltily and Dom chuckled behind me.

"What did you do?"

"About an hour after we ate, I grabbed Rami and jumped in the pool. Kian pulled me away so then he had to take the hit instead of Rami, because I knew that Rami wouldn't save him and..." I trailed and felt Dom's grip on my waist tighten. "I may have played with Kian until Rami came to save him, but then they almost got caught by Reece."

I whispered the last part and Dom smirked, turning to look at the twins who were quietly whispering to each other. "Hm, they seem to be very whisper-ish lately."

I nodded, "But they've always been like that."

"Yeah, but not this much."

"They gossip too much." Milo came out of nowhere and squinted back at the twins. "I wonder what about..."

He shrugged then looked up at us. "Anyway, I think Xavier might want to-"

"Guys," we looked away and put our attention on Xavier, "let's talk in the living room."

I furrowed my brows, but we all followed him to the living room while Reece went back up to his room. We all sat down and Xavier was quietly pacing the room.

"Um...ok." He finally sat down on the couch across from us. "I'm not really sure if Rami, Kian, or Quincy told the rest of you guys but..I was raped...multiple times while I was gone."

My heart sank and I looked at Quincy, who was already looking down at his lap. I looked at Rami and Kian, but they were just looking all around Xavier's body.

"We decided not to tell them because we thought it was best if it came from you." Kian spoke up and Xavier nodded, then turned back to all of us.

Dom got up and picked Xavier up, bringing him to us and sitting back down next to me. I kissed his cheek and grabbed his left hand, pressing my lips to his fingers.

"Did you want to talk about it?" Levi asked with a quiet voice and Xavier shrugged.

"I'm not even really sure what to say, but I just feel so...sad." He scrunched his brows together, "I feel sad because I didn't want any of this to happen. I didn't want Rami, Kian, Enzo, or Quincy getting hurt. I didn't want anyone that I love getting hurt."

He sighed and pulled his hand away from me. "I just...I'm not sure why, but in a fucked up way, I'm glad that they didn't touch them, but they went onto me. Now that I'm back home, I can't help but feel all over the place."

He moved off Dom's lap and walked around the living room again, then stopped. "I need a break."

"What do you mean?" Rami quickly asked.

"I just want to be with my family for a while. I don't know how long I would stay there, but I just need time to process everything and try to...heal from everything with them." He looked at each of us, then met my eyes but I looked away. "I already healed from the first accident with you guys. You guys were here for me when I...hurt you guys by running away, but I got better because of you guys. This time, everything just feels different, I guess."

I frowned. "Are you leaving us?"

Xavier shook his head. "I'm not breaking up with you guys, if that's what you're thinking. I just need at least a month or two to spend time with my family more. I want to be with them this time as I'm getting better. I've also been drifting away from them, and I don't want to lose the good family bond that we have."

"But you can visit them whenever you want..." Levi trailed off.

Xavier sighed, then nodded. "Ok, I'll stay here."

He went upstairs, hearing his room door open, then close.

"This isn't good for him." Milo said, then got up and glared at us. "It's not good that we're keeping him here. He needs a break from us. And before you guys think that he's falling out of love, he's not. He just feels overwhelmed by everything and he's too busy freaking out on the inside. His family will be able to help him more than we'll be able to."

He walked out of the living room and went upstairs, hearing a door slam shut. We all looked at each other and sighed.

"We can't let him leave..." Kai looked at the seat that Xavier was sitting on.

"But he might get worse." Rami bit his lower lip. "I agree with Milo."
