Taurys groaned as Feliks jumped into his lap for the third time that week.
"Like, don't act like you don't like it!" Feliks cooed, grinning at Taurys.
"Maybe I do a little too much." Taurys muttered too quietly for Feliks to hear.
"You're like, hiding something from me." Feliks said suddenly, and Taurys blinked in confusion. "You won't tell me why you moved here, and what you're doing here."
Taurys pushed the nosy blond off his lap before ruining a hand through his own hair. "It's something best kept to myself. I don't want you to think any less of me..."
"As if!" Feliks knelt down in front of Taurys, pulling the brunet down with him. "Liet, why won't you like, tell me? You're my best friend..."
Taurys bit his lip, debating, before he lowered his head in shame.
"We moved here to get away from the things I was caught up in back in Lithuania. I was a good kid, don't get me wrong, but I had issues... I met this guy, and he was kind to me. Everyone else seemed so... Afraid of him, but I didn't know why. I loved him, and when he asked me if I wanted to be his boyfriend, I was more than willing." Tears started running down Taurys' cheeks, but he continued anyway. "He started to get abusive, and still I loved him, but then he started getting sexual about it... I-I tried to get away that night... But he wouldn't let me go. He locked me in the bedroom with him, and tied me down to the bed. I was s-so scared... But I knew nothing could save me." Taurys bit back a small groan of shame. "He raped me, and threatened my family. So we left. Now you know the story..."
Taurys felt Feliks suddenly fling himself at Taurys, wrapping his arms around his neck, tightly squeezing Taurys.
"I'm so so sorry!" He wailed, tears streaming from his eyes as well. "If I had like, known, I wouldn't have pried!"
Taurys was trying not to admit to himself that he liked Feliks sitting in his lap, holding him, and that took his mind off the story.
"It's fine." Taurys replied quietly. Feliks pulled back, and suddenly pressed his lips to Taurys'. Taurys, shocked but pleased, kissed back, and Feliks smiled against his lips.
"You're like, totally safe with me now." The blond declared with a smile. "Forever and like, always."
Taurys sighed, and leaned against Feliks.
"Forever and always."
