Chapter 3

The next day, Chandler after having been told by Sebastian of Kurt's new afternoon hangout "The Juice Bar", orchestrated a chance meeting between himself and Kurt. As he saw Kurt enter he made his way over to the beverage bar and pretended to only at that moment notice that Kurt was standing near him.

He exclaimed. "Oh my gosh, Kurt! What are you doing here?"

Kurt replied with a quizzical expression on his face, "Hi, I come here every day. What are you doing here?"

Chandler responded, "Well, I have a little bit of a flu and I thought I'd try some juices to get me through the night." He continued, "Are you alright? You look a little sad."

Kurt answered, "Oh it's nothing."

"Oh come on," Chandler said, "We don't flirt with each other anymore but we still can be friends, can't we?"

"I don't know, my boyfriend would get really angry and jealous," Kurt cautiously replied.

"Come on Kurt, you need a friend and I'm the only one here at the moment," Chandler urged.

Reluctantly, Kurt answered, "Oh, ok. Well I guess the problem is Blaine. He still doesn't trust that I want a long distance relationship to work with him. He doesn't trust that I'll stay committed. I don't know what to do. I love him so much. How else can I reassure him that I want us to stay together?"

Chandler responded, "Just tell him every day. Be even more affectionate than you usually are. He'll have no choice but to believe you."

"Hmm, that sounds like a plan," Kurt said gratefully. "Thank you so much for lending me your ear".

The two boys embraced.

Meanwhile, Sebastian had spotted Blaine on the street, had struck up a conversation with him and convinced him to accompany him to The Juice Bar. At the instant that they arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, Blaine caught a glimpse of Chandler comforting Kurt as they hugged. From the angle at which Blaine saw them Kurt and Chandler looked as if they were in a lover's embrace. Deeply hurt by what he had just witnessed, he bid farewell to Sebastian and took off in a despondent daze on the verge of tears. Sebastian then walked away in the opposite direction.

Kurt and Chandler then broke from their embrace and said goodbye to one another. Kurt then picked up his order and tried to call Blaine to which he would receive no response. He would indeed try to call him for the rest of the night but in vain. Blaine was in truth laid down on his bed and sobbing into his pillow all night long.
