Metal against itself and glass is the sound that echoes alongside laughter and chatter in the beautiful apartment of Hyunjin and Felix, the table is filled with delicious food and all four of their plates are full, including Chan and Seungmin's whom Felix had invited over for dinner. though it was Chan's idea that Hyunjin and Felix come over to his place for dinner because he wanted the brunette to meet Seungmin outside of the hospital, Felix insisted that he be the host and here they were, with an arch bow aimed at Hyunjin and he just prays that it gets shot because he hates being here

even if Felix had consulted it with him first, insisted that the three of them could just go out and have dinner Hyunjin didn't agree because he didn't want to let go of the only time he had with Felix due to his busy schedule, even if it meant he had to tolerate Chan. wine burns down his throat as he takes another big gulp of it, this was the only good thing about this dinner, the expensive merlot Chan had brought and oh--not to forget Felix's brownies, that definitely has to be the best thing about this entire day

"How is Hyunjin's work?" Chan questions, directing the fork toward his mouth as he munches on his food "Oh incredible, he barely has time to spare but it's going well" Chan knew the only way this dinner could work is if no one except for Felix addresses Hyunjin, and if he had any questions regarding him he'd just ask the brunette and he'd answer for him. he even told Seungmin to just preteend that the 'grinch-esque black haired boy' is a red zone and it's best to pretend he's not even there unless he talks to you first, which won't happen, and it hasn't. 

Seungmin was confused of course but he didn't question any further. The nurse did have some interactions with Hyunjin back at the hospital and though they were always professional Hyunjin's behavior was nevertheless a little sour but Seungmin just always  assumed that Hyunjin was stressed about Felix and gave him a pass

"What about you? you bounced back too quickly" Chan scolds the brunette passively as he hands Seungmin a napkin and the boy takes it gratefully "I didn't! I am prefectly fine" The doctor eyes Felix for a second before he nods his head, even if he doesn't believe him he knows that Hyunjin will never let him go back to work if he isn't fine and the notion of that eases his mind. a warm hand intertwined with Hyunjin's gives him enough courage to live through this harrowing dinner as he rushes down another glass of wine and pours himself another

Felix catches the incessant consumption of alcohol and he turns around to look at him, investigating through his eyes if the raven head is okay and can bear through this dinner for a while longer or if he needs to make up an excuse and send him off into the bedroom so he can be alone, after having found nothing he squeezes Hyunjin's hand gently to send a signal as the aforementioned turns to look at him, raising his brows and questing him "are you okay?" Felix speaks lowly so his voice won't reach the other couple as he inches closer to Hyunjin and the raven-haired nods, relaxing back in his seat he twirls his wine glass in his hand throwing a soft smile at the brunette who reciprocates and turns back to the couple

The night slips away rather quickly and Hyunjin is delighted when he finds himself in bed with the brunette, his chest pressed against Felix's back as he cuddles him. hiding his face in the crook of his neck and inhaling the sweet scent of him, smiling contentedly because no matter how rough of a day he has, returning to his beloved and being with him always makes up for it.

Hyunjin would not have this bitter expression on his face if he was in bed and cuddling with Felix instead of here, watching Junho, his wife, and his son; Yang Jeongin all laugh about something incredibly foolish the CEO had said, though Felix was laughing too his laugh could never be compared to the disgusting sound of these people's noises. a puff of air rushes past the raven haired's mouth as he quietly eats his food, waiting for this night to be over
