Chrome got home after another rough day at work. The house was empty and he put his bag down, rubbing his back and ass. He sighed sadly as he walked to the kitchen, walking past pictures of him with his family but he stopped. Every afternoon he would stop in front of the same picture, Chrome and Noachi's wedding day picture. It wasn't traditional at all and Noachi was able to wear a red and black suit while Chrome wore white and blue. They also decided that since Noachi would wear his sunglasses, Chrome would also wear sunglasses and when they were to kiss then they would shut their eyes and lift their glasses. Chrome smiled a little at the memories before that smile quickly fell. He hadn't seen Noachi for kid for about a month or 2. He would be on the phone with Lujiph to pass messages to Noachi. He cried himself to sleep almost every night while listening to Noachi and his song. He went to go and make something instant for his dinner which was what his diet had turned into.

Noachi tired to stay strong but most nights he ended up crying to himself. It was hard not to when you had 4 beautiful kids that reminded you of the man who cheated on you. Tonight he tried to stop himself from crying by watching the news. Chrome sat on the large couch at home and turned on the TV, also turning to the news before he suddenly got a call. "Hello?" He asked "Hello Chrome Nothal" The voice on the other end was the CEO for the company he was working for. He immediately felt dread wash over him. He didn't know what to think. "Something was stolen in the office so we went over the security footage. We saw that.. you've been having relations with your boss. Is there anything you would like to tell me about that?" The reason she was asking was asking was due to the fact that he never looked like he was enjoying what was going on nor did he look very happy afterwards. There was a lump in Chrome's throat and he didn't know what to say.

Tears quickly raced down his face. He needed to tell the truth. He looked down at his legs before he finally let out the words that had been stuck in his throat. "For a few months now.. he's been abusing me and raping me." 'So weak' was the instant thought in his head once he finally admitted it. There was silence on the other end as Chrome just continued to cry. There was proof if they looked back far enough so they could actually get the man stuck in jail. "Thank you for telling me. I assure you that the police will be contacted about this issue. We are so sorry that this has happened." Chrome's eyes widened and he sat back in the couch from his knelt over position. "We will give you break with pay. I would recommend seeing a psychologist. Thank you for your time" She said before hanging up the phone. Chrome continued to process before a smile found it's way onto his face. He felt a weight lifted from his chest as he started to cry. He thought he was weak but at least it would all be over.

Even if it would stop at work however, he would have to tell Noachi. He dreaded that the most. With the phone still in his hand, he dialled Lujiph's number. Lujiph answered soon after it started ringing. "Hey Chrome. What's up?" She asked, cuddling with Jewell who stayed silent to leave some peace for whoever she was on the phone with. "Could you tell Noachi to come home. Just him if that's alright. I need to talk to him and try to fix things." He explained. She was skeptical but then again she was confused by the entire scenario. "Alright. I'll tell him but I can't guarantee that he'll come o-" "Guarantee it." Chrome said, not meaning to sound so forceful. Lujiph just makes a sound of approval before she hangs up and goes to try and convince Noachi to go off and Jewell and her could look after the kids.

Noachi hesitantly got to his house. He sighed and looked at the floor before going to the door and opening it. "Chrome?" He asked without using his nickname. "In the kitchen" Chrome's voice said and Noachi made his way to the room to find Chrome sitting at the table, a bottle in front of him and his face still stained with tears. "I'm weak" Was all Chrome said when he felt Noachi's presence in the room. "What do yo-" Noachi was quickly stopped when Chrome got up and walked over to him. "I would never cheat on you turtledove.. I was being sexually abused at work." He finally admitted as tears started to go down his face. Noachi stood there shocked and unable to believe it. "I'm weak" Chrome commented again, looking away and clearing his face of tears. Noachi immediately felt guilty, hurt, upset, angry? He quickly hugged his husband as tears made their way down his face. "Oh chromee.. why didn't you tell me? I would have helped you, I wouldn't have left" Noachi said and Chrome just held onto his husband tightly, crying into him. "I didn't want to loose my job and I didn't want you to think I was disgusting and weak." Chrome admitted which made Noachi feel even more guilty. "You are not disgusting and you are not weak. You're strong because you're telling people and getting help." Noachi said, kissing Chrome's head.

They ended up going to the couch so they could cuddle each other and Noachi could comfort Chrome. He ended up talking Chrome into going going to therapy. Noachi quickly moved back in and brought the kids with him and Chrome couldn't seem any happier. After a couple of days, Noachi and Chrome were cuddling in bed. "You know what? You and the kids were the whole reason I never said anything. I wanted to do good and get you guys money to survive and you guys made me so happy when I got home." Chrome said before gently kissing Noachi who happily kissed back. It was going to be hard but at least Chrome was now on the road to recovery and he had his family with him

(Here, have a happy ending :3)
