The sudden voice scared me but at the same time it was nice to hear Felix. "Come on, it's your last chance. End it all right here" The voice said. I thought about it and inched a little bit closer to the edge. That's when I felt Felix grab my wrist, pulling towards him. I could feel him stop himself from pulling me but still holding onto to my wrist.

That's when I realized why he stopped. He had felt the scars on my bare wrist. Nobody had ever seen them because I always wore a long sleeve to cover them. He looked at me and I crumbled under my emotions. Instantly, I started to sob. Felix didn't say anything and just held me. I scooted away from the edge and into him. His chest was warm and comforting. I rest my head on his shoulder and everything just let everything out.

I had never cried like this before. I felt like I couldn't breath. I gasped and stammering trying to catch my breath. "Deep breaths. Inhale 1,2,3..." Felix said and I followed. After a while of crying my eyes out, it felt like I had no liquid inside me to cry out.

We sat on the bridge for some time until Hyunjin stopped crying. I didn't think it was the right time to ask about the scars so I just rubbed his back. "Come on, let's get you home. It's getting late" I started to stand up  urging him to get up with me. He finally stood up and we started to walk back to his house since it was relatively close. Hyunjin held my hand the whole way there which I didn't mind. On the way, I texted Seungmin an update on Hyunjin.

We arrived at Hyunjin's house and he laid down in the couch. It was a nice home, it wasn't the biggest of houses but it had a homey feel. I started to look through the cabinets to find a cup to get him some water. I eventually found the cups and poured him some water. He gladly accepted and chugged the water down. "Before you fall asleep, why don't you get in your actual bed" He nodded still not opening his eyes falling in and out of sleep.

I tried to somehow carry him but him being much taller than me did not help. I ended up carrying him on my back, luckily it was a short distance to his bed. I slowed set him down and he snuggled into the warm bed. "Okay, I'm gonna go now. Will you be okay for the night?" He looked at me and pouted when I asked. "Nooo, stay here with me" He whined. "Finee, but I'm gonna go sleep on the couch" I turned off the light and close the door as I left. He looked sad that I was leaving him for the couch but I didn't feel right with him in the state he's in.
