- and I didn't mean the story, I meant the sex!!!!

This is a line with a typo:
"Those were the words Connor had dreamed of hearing since they were young-impossible to believe, impossible to resist."
should be
"Those were the words Connor had dreamed of hearing since they were young - impossible to believe, impossible to resist." (i think)

This line is a killer and soooo true!
"there was an innocent grace to Murphy that Connor could never hope to have."

"Home in a way no house or apartment or place could ever be." ahhhhhhhhhh. That's sweet! I like that a lot! (reminds me of last night......)

I think there is a bit too much 'never' going on here:
"And fuck. He was never going to do this again, and he took everything that Murphy let him have and gave Murphy everything he had.
Murphy never [I'd take that one out or use 'wouldn't' instead] let go of Connor's wrist, holding him there, fucking his hand into the wall."

"Connor pulled his brother into his arms, aware again that Murphy was naked and he himself was still in all his clothes." Wow! That is such a gentle and caring thought! How Connor realizes that he is in a "better", stronger position... very well done! It fits with the issues Murph is fighting. Great line!

And as always a great ending!
"He'd seen Murphy discard lovers after a few days or weeks.
Despite all that, he felt the first glimmer of hope."
It makes me want MORE MORE MORE even though I am afraid what life will do to them next...

Thanks!
It was a worthy next chapter!
