Little White Lies

Unexpected Visitor

Kurt groaned as he rolled over in his bed, groaning again when he heard his phone begin to ring.

I think I'll try defying gravity,
Kiss me goodbye I'm defyi-

He pressed answer, "Hello?"

"Kurt?"

"Yeah, it's Kurt. Who is this?"

"Umm, it's- it's Chandler."

"Oh my god! Chandler?" Kurt grinned, holding his phone closer to his ear, "I haven't heard from you in ages! How're you doing? Are you- wait. Why're you calling me?"

"I- I- just, come outside please."

"Come outside? What're you-" Kurt frowned and made his way to his front door, pulling it open slightly, "Chandler?"

"Hi." Kurt ended the call before looking back up at Chandler.

"Umm, hi. What're you- I mean- why are-"

"I, uh, I broke up with David."

"You broke up with- wait. You guys were still together? Even after- y'know what? This doesn't matter. Why'd you break up? Are you okay?"

"Y-yeah, I'm fine." Chandler's bottom lip quivered slightly and Kurt frowned, opening his arms for Chandler to fall into, "No. No, I'm not okay."

"Shh, it's okay. C'mon." Kurt sighed as he rubbed the man's back, manoeuvring them around so he could lean against the door, causing it to close quietly.

They stood like that for about 5 minutes, Chandler just crying, sobbing into Kurt's shoulder as Kurt comforted him.

Finally, Chandler pulled away, "I'm sorry. Oh god- I got your shirt wet."

"Don't worry, it's only my pyjamas."

"Your- oh gosh. I woke you up, didn't I? I'm so sorry."

"It's fine. I probably needed to get up anyway." Kurt frowned at the boy, "Hey, Chandler. It's alright. Come on, tell me what's wrong."

Chandler looked up at Kurt before sinking down and sitting on the floor, bringing his knees up so he could rest his head on top of them.

Kurt followed, crossing his legs and leaning his back against the door, "What's up?"

"I- I- David had been, umm, coming home late from work pretty much every night. He'd always be insanely drunk, t-to the point where he couldn't even st-stand up sometimes, y'know." Chandler took a deep breath, "I- I would ask him why he did it, umm, every morning but it was always the same answer, apparently he didn't know what I was talking about and maybe I was the one coming home drunk."

Kurt tilted his head slightly, "But you weren't?"

"No! God, no. I never drink. I-it just- alcohol and I don't get along very well. At all." Chandler laughed humourlessly, "But then, umm, a couple of nights ago he, uh, he came home drunk like always. But this time something seemed really wrong, so obviously I asked him if he was okay. He said no and then- and then he, uh, he turned around and he- well, he hit me. Hard. In, uh, my eye." Chandler gestured to one of his eyes which was bruised badly and swollen and Kurt frowned, how had he not noticed that before?

"I-"

"And then, he- he kept hitting me. In- on- just all over my body and no matter how much I told him to stop. He just wouldn't. It was as if something else was controlling him. I- I managed to calm him down eventually and we went to bed. But, after that I just- I didn't feel safe there. He didn't do it again. But I- I knew that I couldn't stay there. Not after what he had done." Chandler shook his head, "So, this morning when he woke up I had already packed all of my bags. I told him everything. A-about the coming home drunk and hitting me and- just all of it. And then I broke up with him. Simple as that."

"Chandler, I'm- I'm so sorry."

"It's not your fault." Chandler smiled sadly, "But do you know what the worst part is? It's that I still love him."

Hiiiiiiiiii guyssssss! I'm so happy!!!

Ok, that's sounds horrible because this was a pretty sad chapter but I'm not happy about this story.

I'm happy because I met Joe Sugg and Caspar Lee yesterday!!! jbcjdjakzjkcnsnakcnd! AND THEY LIKED MY LEATHER JACKET! AND I JUST CAN'T! I actually hugged them and got a picture with them and... THEY TOUCHED ME I CANT GJSJKCFNWKKVNEWJ. And then we went into the arena and they came out and we watched a couple of previews from their new movie and they did some challenges. And OMG THEY DID THE ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE LIVE AND I LITERALLY CANNOT. And I kept screaming Jaspar and then everyone in the arena would start screaming and I'd be like WHAT THIS IS SO GREAT.

Okay, I'm sorry. Bye 😹😫
