The next few weeks passed slowly for them both. The group worked hard to ensure they could take the time off and Chan made sure the company knew not to schedule anything during that visit. Jacob made several deposits at Felix's door and started calling him too. Felix wouldn't answer the phone for him though. Vanessa and Arny were staples at his apartment and the more Felix got to know them, the more he liked them. They were a true safe zone for him and watching the two of them together reassured him that he and Hyunjin were definitely moving in the right direction. He still didn't tell them about Hyunjin and they didn't push for any details, seeming to realize he wasn't ready to talk about his visitor.

When researching flights Felix started getting frustrated. Flights he could afford had hugely long layovers so that instead of a ten hour flight it was 24+ hours. Hyunjin kept trying to chime in that he could pay for the flight but Felix shut him down every single time. He would not allow Hyunjin to spend his money like that. A few days later he received a package from Korea and when he opened it he found a round trip ticket premium economy class non-stop. He would have gotten mad but there was a note attached.

~Hyunjin is freaking out because you won't let him buy the tickets. I'm taking matters into my own hands. This is from all of us, not him. Don't get mad at him please. Just take these and be glad we didn't gift first class the way some of us wanted to and we can't wait to meet you. Binnie~

Tell Binnie and the others I said thank you. I will. They didn't tell me. I know. I'm not mad. I just can't wait to see you. And to meet them.

Felix watched Hyunjin go seek out Changbin. "Thank you for sending Felix the ticket. He was arguing about me sending it."

"I didn't upset him did I?" Binnie asked worriedly.

"No. He's ok." He smiled. "We're ok."

"That's good." Changbin smiled and reached up as if to touch Hyunjin but pulled back before he did. "I'm so glad you found someone who makes you happy."

"He does." You make me happy too. "He says I make him happy too." He saw a look flash across Changbin's face. "He knows about us." He reassured his hyung. "He's ok with it." Changbin gave a relieved look.

"I was afraid to say the wrong thing." He admitted. Give him a hug for me. You sure? Yeah. Hyunjin somewhat awkwardly leaned over and hugged Changbin.

"That's from Felix." He said with a blush. Binnie grinned.

"Thank you Felix." Changbin said to Hyunjin. Then Hyunjin's face paled suddenly as Felix opened his door to a knock to find Jacob standing there. "What's wrong Jinnie?" Changbin asked instantly. Hyunjin held up his hand asking for a moment and his hyung nodded.

Felix sighed when he saw Jacob. "What do you want?"

"You." Jacob answered softly. "Always you. Look I know I fucked up but I miss you and I want you back."
