First off if his brother (your ex) has moved on and it was only a week thing I can't see why he would be all that upset about it unless he has reason to think you were a bad person and would hurt his brother. It's not like you two were married or even dated long enough for it to really be called a relationship. I think you are worrying about this way to much. The 17 year old should have just said to his brother that he has feelings for you and see what reaction he got. In fact he could still do that. Also so the two of them live alone because I can't see the families be too shaken up by this. His may be a little cold because they think you will just jump from family member to family member but other then that they will probably just shrug it off.
The best advice to take to make you feel better is to come clean and realize that you aren't hiding any crazy dark secret. No one will probably care an awful lot and you are just worrying over nothing.
