Well it most likely was the first time he smoked but you are probably right, his brother will give him another cigarette if he asks for it and another smoker joins the ranks. Yes, 10 is too young to be smoking but as you say, if he really wants to he will find a way.
What does their mum think of your 12 year old already being a smoker, just curious.
