"No." The soft whisper causes Chase to sit on the bed, entangled in the sheets, bewildered. Had he heard him wrong? Had he heard him right? He stares with wide eyes as Lysander looks over his shoulder and into Chase's eyes, before Lysander whispers once again, "No." Lysander gets off of the bed and picks up his pyjama bottoms, pulling them on, and Chase leans forward, his hands falling into his lap.
"W-what do you mean, Lysa...?" Lysander looks over his shoulder at him, and shakes his head, running his fingers through his silver hair.
"I mean no, Chase. Simply...no." Chase rolls off the other side of the bed and pulls his pants on as well, then crawls across the bed and stands in front of his boyfriend. He takes him by the shoulders and tears fill his eyes to the brim.
"Why? Why won't you say yes?" Lysander brushes Chase's hands off of his shoulders and walks past him, stopping in the doorway and peering over his shoulder towards Chase.
"I think, maybe, it'd be best if you stayed at Castiel's place for a few days." He walks out of the room, leaving Chase confused and hurt; Chase sits heavily on the edge of the bed and pulls his cell phone out from his pants pocket, dialing the now-familiar number. Castiel's groggy voice answers curtly, and Chase holds onto the cell with both of his hands, tears falling from his tropical blue eyes. There is a long silence as Chase cries, then Castiel finally speaks after sighing.
"I'll be there in ten." Chase closes his phone and sits, waiting, until he hears Castiel's motercycle in the driveway; he jumps up and runs downstairs, flinging the door open and hugging Castiel tightly, crying into his broad shoulders. Castiel pats Chase's back awkwardly, then walks the crying man back into the house, kicking the door shut behind them. He walks him over ot the couch, where they both sit, and he stays silent as Chase cries. Sniffling, Chase wipes the tears from his face, and smiles a watery smile at his friend.
"I proposed to Lysander..." Castiel blinks a few times in surprise, then laughs and claps Chase on the shoulder.
"Congrats!" Chase looks down at his hands, which he is wringing, and he continues.
"Lysa said...no." Chase chokes on the last word, and Castiel falls silent. He stands up and looks at Chase, leveling a finger at him, casuing Chase to stare at him in shock.
"Find some way to make him smile, and I'll get him back to you. But this is the last time I'm getting you two back together!" He sighs resignedly and offers a small smirk, "You guys must love each other so much, in order to cause each other this much pain." He shakes his head as he makes his way out of the house, and Chase's gaze floats over the curious heads of Othello and Hamlet, to rest upon the grand piano. He smiles a mysterious little smile to himself and stands up; he knows exactly what he has to do.
