Perfect -- was what wandered hyunjin's mind when he found himself staring at Felix unintentionally, of course, by saying 'I'll watch you' hyunjin didn't quite literally mean 'watch' him for the remaining night, but somehow he still found himself too lost in the pretty puzzle to pull himself back again

Felix was so beautiful, it was beyond real to be this stunning. He was frail and pale like he barely had any life left in him, which was also partly true but despite that, he still managed to knock away hyunjin's senses with his looks

His eyes, even when closed looked so pretty. Just shut off showing how peaceful he felt when asleep, his tiny little nose with freckles scattered all over it alongside his adorable cheeks. And not to forget his pink, plump and soft lips, so beautiful they could easily put someone on a deathbed

Hyunjin admired the other's beauty so much, a little too much that it began to tug the insides of his chest and made him feel things he shouldn't be feeling, so with much resistance he finally managed to look away from the younger, taking out his mobile phone from his pocket and fixating his attention on it

But even after all the tries, he still felt his eyes look up. In hopes of getting another glance at the sleeping beauty, when suddenly the brunette whimpered causing worry over hyunjin who furrowed his brows together and put away his phone at once, he stared at Felix with care looming over his gaze as he waited for another reaction to come from Felix

And just as assumed, the smaller whimpered once again making hyunjin quickly move closer to him. "N-no" he murmured in his sleep, now beginning to shuffle around on the small couch. Sweat started to shine on his forehead while a few wrinkled appeared in between his brows due to the knit, his lips parted constantly letting out small sounds of discomfort, hyunjin held his face gently whispering his name with concern "Felix?" he questioned

"please" the brunette whispered again and hyunjin didn't know what to do watching Felix so distressed caused him to worry but he was so unsure of what his next step should be "don't- I can't" muffled sentences kept flowing out the younger's mouth as he shook in his sleep, shivering while a tear slid down his side, making hyunjin's insides twist. he was crying, and he couldn't bear that "Felix?" hyunjin decided it would be best to wake the younger up

"Felix? wake up" he spoke, louder this time gently patting the brunette's face. "no" he begged again, sobbing in his sleep. hyunjin licked his lips "Felix!" a loud shake and yell and the brunette was wide-eyed awake, panting, and gasping with his eyes fixated on hyunjin, who had one arm over his chest and holding his shoulder and the other hand on Felix's face

"It's okay, you're okay. It was just a dream" he muttered gently grazing his thumb over Felix's cheek while his hand held his face lovingly, the boy fell silent for a minute before shutting his eyes and sobbing, putting the back of his hand on his mouth and nose. hyunjin felt a deep pang at his heart at the sight, he didn't want it to go on -- at all

"Hey," he whispered holding Felix's shoulders and making him sit up, trying to look into his eyes but the smaller looked down sobbing hard which made his shoulders shake, burying a thousand shards of the sharpest glass in hyunjin's heart, The taller sighed before engulfing the boy in his arms. face against his chest as he cradled his hand in Felix's hair, whispering sweet nothings in his ear, he could feel his shirt dampen from the other's tears but he didn't mind "I'm sorry" Felix managed to mutter out making hyunjin shake his head

he felt so bad, why was Felix apologizing when it wasn't even his fault? this sudden squall of sentimental emotions inside of hyunjin perplexed him, he's barely felt counted emotions in his life, and now he was here. sitting with a broken boy in his arms, attempting to soothe away his pain and put together his pieces that are shattered all over the ground, like a doll not wanted anymore by its owner, or a bird locked away for all its life. or a piece of clothing that's become a rug, Hyunjin wanted to put him on and tell him he's his favorite
