blaine had just finished getting dressed when he heard a little knock on the door to his room he walked over opened the door and saw chance standing there with the stuffed monkey (clark had given her when she was a baby) in hand held close to her face she had tears running down her cheeks but wasnt making any noise he leaned down to her level so he could talk to her at eye level so that he didnt seem big and scary.
''whats the matter chance?'' he asked her concern filling his tone.
"i had another bad dream.'' she sniffled ''aww its ok sweetie would you like to tell me what it was about? i know when i had bad dreams i always told my mommy or daddy what it was about and felt better.''he said trying to get her to open up to him without pushing to much.
''ok.'' chance said blaine stretched his hand toward her slowly she still flinched but then realized he wasnt going to hurt her and took his outstretched hand. they walked to blaines bed where he sat down and waited for her to climb up but then realized she wouldnt unless he asked if she wanted too. so he asked her if she wanted to sit and she nodded and moved to get on the bed. once they were comfortable on the bed blaine broke the silence.
''so what was your dream about?''
''if i tell you you will be mad at me .'' she said staring at the monkey in her hand.
''chance look at me.'' blaine said as softly as her could trying not to scare the tiny child chance looked up slowly with tears filling her eyes blaine knew what ever it was was really bothering her and she needed to trust him so he did the best he could to convince her he loved her and would never hurt her.
''chance i will never hurt you i might get a little upset sometimes but i will never ever hurt you ok?'' chance shook her head indicating she was listening so blaine continued. ''and if you ever want to tell me something you can no matter what it is i will always listen and never judge you or be mad at you for it ok now lets hear about that dream so hopefully you will feel better.'' blaine finished and looked into chances eyes she broke eye contact and looked at the monkey before she started talking.'' i was sitting in my closet of my old room and the man that was my parent was banging on the door telling me too come out of he would come in so i just sat there hoping he wouldnt find me in the closet but when he came into the room he knew exactly where i was and he opened the closet and pulled me off the ground by the collar of my shirt and then threw me into the wall while he was yelling that i was worthless and a waste of time and that if i said anything to anyone he would beat me and i was so scared that i said i wouldnt and i cried for him to stop hitting me but he kept kicking me and then he found out that i told clark that he was hurting me so he took me into the kitchen and burned me with the metal thing he had on the counter i was so scared and it hurt so much it was like it actually happened." she finished telling him about the dream she thought didnt actually happen but as soon as she said that the man had hurt her he realised it wasnt a dream she was having she was reliving a night that actually happened in the form of a nightmare but she didnt realize it had actually happened he then relized how broken this five year old little girl was he wanted to hug her but he knew it would scare her so he just tried to hold in the tears that were threatening to fall. ''oh chance its ok that man will never hurt you again i promise and i will never do that too you i know you dont totally trust me yet but im glad you told me your dream.'' blaine said trying to comfort her chance just sniffled and nodded she didnt know what to say but then her stomach growled and she realized she was hungry again. '' are you hungry chance?'' blaine asked knowing she wouldnt ask for food unless it was offered too her. ''yes a little.'' she answered. '' ok well lets go get you some food and while we do that i have a surprise for you.
while they ate grilled cheese sandwhiches blaine told chance all about kurt the man he loved and how he was coming over to their house to eat dinner and meet chance. chance was happy to hear that blaine wanted kurt to meet her because her old families (for lack of a better word) would always make her stay in her room when there was company coming over.
after eating blaine took chance upstairs to have a bath and get dressed.
once they were cleaned and dressed they sat in the living room watching tv while they waited for chris to arrive.
;;well i hope everything goes well tonight i dont want chance to trust me any less;;blaine thought as he sat on one end of the couch while chance sat on the other far end away from blaine with her eyes focused on the tv.
