Henry didn't talk too much but he cared for every one in the family. Henry and ethan were also close and lived like brothers. Now Henry was 16 and Ethan was 20.

one day Henry was going to school and on his way he saw Ethan and his guy friend kissing each other. Henry was in shock to know that his brother was a gay because their father was homophobic and he could never allow such things in their family. After a moment Ethan saw his younger brother seeing them , Ethan pushed his friend away and said,"what are you doing here henry?". Henry said "what were you doing, don't you know father would be disappointed in you?". Ethan said " it is a misunderstanding, this isn't what you are thinking,he is just my friend ". Henry was confused and said "i'm getting late for my classes " and left. At evening, when they were having a dinner, the whole family was on dining table Ethan looked stressed and was staring at Henry .Their father said "Is anything wrong between you two, why is Henry ignoring Ethan" Henry with a slightly fake smile said "i'm not ignoring him,why would I ignore him". Meanwhile their mather said that their grandmother was coming for few days and she will stay at their house .she asked Henry " Is it okay for you to stay in Ethan's room for few days?, because grandma is going to stay in your room. Before henry could say something their father said "why not? what's wrong with it if they stay together for some days" Henry and Ethan remained silent and it was decided that for next week Henry was going to stay in Ethan's room. when Henry went to his room he kept thinking about Ethan and couldn't sleep till morning. Then he finally fell asleep and had a dream of Ethan kissing him,in that dream they both seemed to be happy. when he woke up in morning he was scared but he started to move his stuff to Ethan's room.Ethan helped him in moving the stuff but henry tried to ignore him and didn't talk to him. After they finished moving the stuff, they were in Ethans room. Henry tried to leave the room but Ethan held his hand and said"that was just a mistake, don't overthink about it".But all Henry was thinking about was the dream he had last night. Ethan said "why aren't you talking to me, will you hate me now.....I don't want our relationship to get ruined due to stupid reasons". Henry said " don't worry, I don't hate you and I trust you that you won't disappoint anyone in our family".

Ethan smiled and said thank you for understanding me. After this little talk they both felt a bit comfortable.
