If My Heart Was A House

TW // Abuse, implied gay slurs.

"GET OUT OF MY HOUSE YOU DISAPPOINTMENT!!!" Kai's mother yelled
"AND DON'T YOU EVER THINK ABOUT RETURNING F-"
Kai covered his ears as his mother dropped slurs, followed by another slap across his face, and then a slam from the front door.
Kai stood on the front porch, one hand rubbing the side of his face.

Kai didn't know what to do, his mother kicked him out of the house (after finding out he was gay) and he didn't have anything.
His phone, wallet, clothes, everything was inside his house.
The only clothes he had was the ones he was wearing, which wasn't enough to protect him from the snow flurries that fell.
He was shivering, and at a loss for words.
He had nowhere to go, he didn't have his phone, so he couldn't call anyone.

Then suddenly Kai got an idea.
He hopped down the front porch steps, being careful to not slip on the icy wood.
He looked down the street, and saw Taehyun's house in the distance.
He needed his boyfriend's comfort right now, and if anyone would let him stay with them for a while, it would definitely be him.

So Kai ran down the street best he could, his worn out tennis shoes sticking to the snow, and his feet cold from the not proper footwear.
His mother's yelling echoed back through his brain, it also didn't help his arms and face were red, from not only the snow, but from multiple hits across his skin from his mother.

If he wasn't crying before, he was definitely crying now.
The cold wind pinched the back of his throat as he cried, and his chest tightened a bit.
Finally he was on Taehyun's front porch.
He rang the doorbell, and knocked eagerly a few times, before Taehyun's dad was opening the door.

"Oh! Hello HueningKai! What are you doing here, and are you okay?"
Kai ignored the last bit, and said
"Is Taehyun here?"
"Yeah he's right upstairs"
"Thank you"
Kai ran inside, and slipped his shoes off by the door.
Kai was thankful Taehyun's dad was accepting of his and Taehyun's relationship, and always let him in the house no matter what was going on.
Kai and Taehyun grew up together, so his dad knows Kai very well.

Kai ran up the stairs, and knocked on the door, calling Taehyun's name a few times.
Taehyun opened his bedroom door, and was caught by surprise to see Kai standing there, especially looking the way he did.
Kai launched himself at Taehyun, and Taehyun stumbled back as freezing arms wrapped around him.
Taehyun closed the door, and walked towards his bed, still in an embrace.

They separated, and sat down.
Taehyun wrapped a blanket around Kai, and pulled him into his lap.
"Kai, baby what's wrong? What are you doing here?"
Kai didn't realize he was still crying, until Taehyun wiped away his tears.
Kai couldn't even talk, he just broke down, and buried his head in Taehyun's chest.
Violent sobs racked Kai's body, and Taehyun rubbed his back, and whispered to him in an attempt to calm him down.

Thankfully it worked, and Kai turned his head, and said with a saddened voice.
"My mom slapped me, and kicked me out of the house."
Kai touched his face where she had slapped him, and Taehyun placed his hand on Kai's.
"I'm so sorry baby, you can stay here as long as you want"
"Thank you Taehyun, I love you"
"I love you too"

Taehyun carefully tilted Kai's head up, and kissed his cheek, and then his lips.
Kai shifted forward, deepening the kiss.
Taehyun placed his hand on Kai's cheek, followed by a flinch from the other.
Taehyun pulled back, and stared at Kai with concern.
"I'm sorry" Kai said
"Why are you apologizing?"
"I flinched even though you weren't gonna hurt me.."
"Baby.." Taehyun hugged Kai again, and let Kai cry some more against his shoulder.
"If my heart was a house, you'd be home.."
Taehyun whispered

The rest of the night was filled with cuddles and kisses, and more to come during the days they will be together.
