~The dullness is deafening~

The silence in the room was so thick that Sebastian could practically hear a pin drop. The two boys stared at one another, never breaking their gazes. Their expressions, however, differ from one another. Sebastian was shocked; eyes wide and lips parted slightly. Kurt was scared; his lips trembled and his eyes were wandering, as if searching for the answers he hoped to gain simply by looking at Sebastian.

Finally, finally, Sebastian broke the silence. “What?” he choked out.

“You heard me,” Kurt replied, trying his best to sound calm. “I want to know what happened to me in Scandals,”

“Kurt…”

“Don’t you ‘Kurt’ me,” Kurt said. His eyes looked at Sebastian’s in a very desperate manner. “I know you know something that I don’t. And I need to know what it is, Sebastian,” Kurt got off the bed and walked over to Sebastian, gripping the boy’s sleeve as he stood in front of him. “Please…I need to know,”

“Why?” Sebastian said at last, his voice barely above whisper. “It’s not something that I think you should know,”

This made Kurt’s grip tighten. “Something happened, didn’t it? Sebastian, tell me please,” Kurt bit his lip, looking down onto the floor. “You’ve got to help me. Everything is so…” A shuddering breath. “-confusing,”

There was a long drawn pause before Kurt felt something tilting his chin up until he found himself looking straight into Sebastian’s eyes. The latter was wearing a rueful expression on his face. “If I tell you, it would get more confusing,” he murmured.

Kurt did not know what he meant by that but that did not change his resolve. “I don’t care,” he whispered, leaning closer.

Sebastian looked at him for a long moment. His eyes held pain and it was plain obvious that he honestly had no intention to tell Kurt but it would seem now he had not much of a choice. Grabbing Kurt’s shoulder, Sebastian leaned in closer to whisper into Kurt’s ear.

That was then Kurt wished the ground would swallow him.

“A man attempted to rape you,”

~*.*~

Kurt was leaning against the wall of an alley, catching his breath. The street was familiar to him but it was further than he intended to go to. Sighing deeply, he looked up at the sky. It was grey, indicating that it might rain pretty soon. Well, the chances of him catching a cold after this was pretty high seeing as he did not even bring his umbrella with him.

In fact, everything that had transpired was a blur to him. He barely registered the fact that as soon as he heard those words, he began to run. He rushed down the stairs and stumbled into the garage. Burt had looked at him in bewilderment as Kurt went inside his car and started the engine. Burt looked as if he was about to say something but Kurt was already pulling out of the driveway, his knuckles turning white as he gripped the steering wheel tightly.

His chest felt tight and tears were starting to form in his eyes when he remembered the gripping fear that clutched his heart the whole time. The world started to spin too fast. In the end, Kurt hastily parked his car at the side of the road, shakily walked towards the hidden part in the alley way and threw up.

A man attempted to rape you…
