Adrien went and crept into one of the other rooms. It was difficult; this apartment wasn't as big as the one in New York, where it was very easy to hide out and pretend.
He was overwhelmed and very near tears. He picked up the phone and dialed Dan's number without thinking.

((I'm so sorry I missed this! I knew you posted, but I couldn't find it anywhere!))
Dan had been spending most of his days down with Archie, updating, fixing, cleaning, anything he could do to keep his mind busy.
So when the phone rang, it caused the man to jump.
Holding his chest, he walked over to the newly installed cordless telephone and picked it up. "Hello?"

He didn't know why he'd called Dan. What was there to say? Through choked tears he was distinctly heard to utter, "Shit!"

"Er... hello?"
Dan furrowed his brow "Hellllo."

"It's Adrien."

"Oh" Dan smiled "hi."

He heard the smile in his voice, and it was of some comfort.
But not much.
"Dan, I'm divorciing Adrian," he forced out quickly in a choked voice. He steadied himself for it, but he didn't start crying. He didn't even know if that was a positive sign or not.

"Ah-" Dan blinked, completely caught off gaurd "I'm not sure what to say about that honestly."

"Fuck, me neither-" The tears came back.

That didn't quite snap him out of the tears, but it did put a bit of a fire in him. "You remember when you were at Karnak with Micaela and him and I? Well, that was when I first told him I loved him - before you even showed - and he said I was very nice, but he could not possibly love me - oh, Christ! He treated me like shit all the way up until November, you know!"

"I- I had no idea how it was."

"He used to get mad at me all the time for not being enough of a boy for him."
Mad wasn't quite the word. Stern and disapproving and nearly defensive - but Adrien had no way to word those things, so he went with mad.

Dan listened, it was odd to hear it all really, to know anything more about their relationship then, they were together. It wasn't as if Adrian had confided in him really.
"That isn't fair to you."

"He - " His breath caught, and then he blurted it anyway. "He tried to kill me, once."
