Chose Your Own Adventure: Fanfic Edition [Discontinued]

Chapter Ten: Choice B

"Hey, Nick, I was talking to Thad today..." Jeff started.

"Oh, no. What'd he say?"

"Wanted to talk about you, of course. Ask about the cut. But I asked why he can't just leave you alone, and apparently the Dean's noticed. He's trying to keep you from being pulled into the Dean's office because he can tell you'd have a panic attack."

"The Dean noticed a cut on my face?" he asked, confused.

He shook his head. "It's not just that. He suspects child abuse, apparently."

Nick sat up abruptly. "My mom hasn't done anything wrong."

"I know, I know," Jeff soothed. "That's just his guess. But if we explain, he won't have to think that anymore."

"Okay. Okay. But how do I explain without my mom getting involved?"

"Tell them you don't want her involved and explain why. I don't know, I think honesty's the only way for this to work out."

Nick nodded. "Yeah. You're right. But can he tell them for me?"

"Totally. He gave me his number so I could tell him what we decided, should we text him now?"

"Set up some time to meet him, over coffee or something, so I can explain in person."

"Okay."

Kurt had been in his dorm most of the time, avoiding everyone– especially Sebastian.

He couldn't look at him without feeling humiliated. The one time he tried to open up, he's immediately rejected.

It seemed dramatic, he knew, but the last time he'd opened himself up to a relationship...

He rubbed the small scar in his eyebrow, a result of the skin splitting open when he'd been punched.

Well, it really hadn't ended well. There was a reason it took him so long to give love another shot.

Maybe it was a sign, just telling him he wasn't ready.

His phone buzzed, and he looked at it, frowning at the contact.

Sebastian

Kurt, I am so, so sorry
about what happened.
Please talk to me, let
me explain. I really don't
want to have ruined this

He sighed. He really didn't know if he should or not. What reason could he possibly have that wasn't just 'I don't like you?' It could just be a trick to humiliate him again.

Hello! There was a tie on the last chapter for forever, but it was eventually broken and I got to work on this.

So, does Kurt:

A| Meet with Sebastian and give him a chance to explain

B| Not respond, which is answer enough

C| Tell Sebastian that yes, he did ruin it, and to just leave him alone
