This Chapter was so easy to write, it's scary...
Chapter 4
Sebastian sat at his usual table in Lima Bean, staring off into space, one hand slightly touching the cup in front of him. It had been almost a week since the last time he saw Chandler, which was weird in of itself and he couldn't stop thinking about that cheerful blond. There were many reasons why Chandler would be on the young Dalton's mind but the most pronounced reason was the blue eyed boy's behavior that night at Scandals. Chandler was usually cheerful and laughing, there was nothing happy and bright about the look on his face before he left. A high pitched voice pulled Sebastian out of his trance.
"What's wrong with you Sebastian" The person asked.
Sebastian turned his head so fast he almost got whiplash, he was expecting to see and smiling face with blue eyes hidden behind some glasses and blond hair sticking out of a beanie.
No such luck.
"Oh Hummel, it's you." The brunet sighed rubbing his temples.
"Who were you thinking it would be?" Kurt asked raising an eyebrow.
Sebastian let out a nothing deep sigh, scratching the cup absentmindedly.
"Chandler." Sebastian admitted, tilting his head up to look at the other brunet.
Kurt started to give Sebastian an "Oh I see" look, but he spoke up before it could go to fast.
"I'm not in the mood Hummel." The brunet muttered, running his fingers through his hair.
The wood nymph looked at the green eyed male with confused eyes, sitting down across from him.
"What's up? You seem more irritable than usual." Kurt asked, settling into his seat.
Sebastian looked at the gray eyed boy skeptically, and then looked around.
"Where's Blaine?" The brunet asked still looking around, trying to avoid eye contact.
"That doesn't matter, now what's up?" the male soprano asked eyes trained on Sebastian.
Sebastian finally decided to give up, maybe Kurt knew what was up with Chandler.
"It's Chandler, he hasn't come to see me in a week and the last time we were together he acted weird." Sebastian explained still absentmindedly playing with his cup.
"Weird? Weird as in…" Kurt questioned, asking for clarification.
"Well, he was fine in the beginning, but then suddenly he said he had to go home and he was just staring at the clock with this horrified look on his face. Has he ever done that around you?" Sebastian inquired concern and confusion mixed in his voice.
"Well we mostly texted, but no that's never happened." Kurt explained just as confused as Sebastian.
"Then can you just tell me where he hangs out?" The taller of the teens asked fed up with not getting any answers.
"I don't know if you should pry about this, it seems sort of personal." The smaller brunet suggested, shrugging his shoulders.
"I just want to know if he's okay!" Sebastian shouted, throwing up his arms.
The whole coffee shop was silent almost everyone staring at the two brunet sitting across from each other. Blaine emerged from a crowd of people looking ready to start a fight with Sebastian. Kurt looked at his boyfriend shaking his head, immediately Blaine backed off, his guard still up.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have yelled I just-"Sebastian began running his hand through his hair once again.
"Try 'Between the Sheets', that's the best place to look." The wood nymph explained getting up to leave, "I hope you can help Chandler if something really is wrong."
Sebastian nodded, standing up as well. He made a b-line to the door taking out his car keys.
He pulled up to Between the Sheets, staring at the sign for a while praying for Chandler to actually be there. A small bell rang as the tall Dalton boy entered the music store his heart pounding for reasons he couldn't comprehend.
Sebastian barely hear the lady at the counter welcoming him, his mind was focus on one thing and one thing only.
His heart skips a beat as his green eyes find a small figure in the corner of the room, blond hair sticking out from out of the boy's hat, the slender shoulders that Sebastian knew instinctively.
The brunet made his way swiftly and silently his heart getting louder with every foot step.
'Am I gonna have a heart attack?' Sebastian wondered momentarily stopping, the boy shifted a bit, making Sebastian forgets all about it.
The Dalton boy stopped a few feet behind the boy.
"Chandler." Sebastian called, not sure if his voice could be heard over the sound of his beating heart.
CDs clattered to the ground as the blond jumped, he almost turned around, but seeming to remember something, stayed where he was.
"Hey Sebastian what's up?" Chandler asked his voice sounding cheerful, but a bit shaky.
He bent down to pick up the CDs.
"'What's up?' are you serious? You avoid me for a week, I can't call you since I don't have you're number, but even if I had you probably wouldn't have picked up and you say 'What's up?'" Sebastian exclaimed moving he hands around in frustration.
"How are you doing?" The blond asked trying to make a joke while pretending to be preoccupied with the CDs in his hands.
"Could you at least look at me when I'm talking to you?" Sebastian complained trying to calm down, grabbing the blond's arm, spinning him around to look at him.
Chandler made a sound of protestation, but was turned around anyway. When Sebastian caught a glimpse of Chandler's face he began to see red, anger rising inside of him ready to boil over at any minute.
The purple and black of the bruise clashed greatly with the blue of Chandler's left eye. There were other cuts along his usually rosy cheeks and pink lips. Chandler held up a CD in an attempt to cover his eye, but Sebastian had already seen it.
"Who did this?" Sebastian asked, trying to keep his emotions under control.
"Sebastian it's nothing." The blond complained, putting the CDs back on the self.
"NO! It's not nothing! You're hurt Chandler and someone did it to you and once you tell me who that is that someone is they're gonna be dead!" The furious boy stated gesturing to Chandler's bruised face.
"I- I can't-"the injured boy stuttered.
"Chandler," The brunet sighed, grabbing the blond's shoulders gently, "Please, where' friend's right? As a friend I can't just sit here while someone somewhere I hurting you."
Chandler looked everywhere, but into the other boy's eyes, looking for a way out, but after a while he finally gave it.
"It-it was my Dad."
