Another early update

____

Felix finally got home around 5 which resulted in a very whiny, and questioning, devil who followed him around the apartment like a puppy. "I had to get groceries!" Felix eventually shouted with a laugh as he turned around in his chair to look at Changbin. "You could've told me," Changbin said with a scoff. "What if some pervert tried to do something, mhm?" Changbin said as he raised a brow.

Felix rolls his eyes. "Nothing like that will happen to me," Felix said as he stood up, walking over and ruffling the older male's hair. "I'm making dinner now," Felix said as he pushed his chair back into his desk and grabbed his phone. "Italian?" Changbin asks with a wide smile. "No, something Korean this time," Felix answered and Changbin crossed his arms over his chest, grumbling in an annoyed tone.

After a few minutes of sulking, Changbin left the room to go bother Felix more. "Don't have a lot of food, okay?" Changbin said, his course of action completely changed once he remembered the event earlier today. "I know," Felix said with a soft chuckle. Changbin hesitated for a moment as he entered the kitchen. He walked over to the male who was looking through a cookbook and slipped his arm around the human's waist. "Yes?" Felix questioned, not minding the skinship he was receiving. "Uh, nothing," Changbin answered and rested his chin on Felix's shoulder. "When do you start working?"

Felix didn't answer for a few minutes. "Next week on Monday," Felix answered and Changbin hummed. "Where do you work?" Changbin asks. "I'm not telling you," Felix answered and Changbin scoffed, removing himself from the human. "Why?" He asks as he crosses his arms over his chest. "Because, I said so," Felix said as he looked at the devil, smiling brightly. "I'm going to find out," Changbin said. "And why do you want to know where I work?" Felix asks as he picks up the cookbook, moves to the other counter, and gets the ingredients he needs. "Reasons," Changbin simply answered with a shrug. "And what is your reason?" Felix questions. "Not telling you."

Felix stared at him as he slowly placed down the arm full of food products. "Mkay," He answered and started getting the utensils out. Changbin frowned and looked from side to side before exiting the kitchen to go watch the series he's been watching for the past week.

Dinner didn't take long to make or eat, but it took a long time to clean as Changbin decided to help; without magic this time. Every time Felix was focused on the dish he was scrubbing, Changbin would flick the soapy water onto the human; causing the male to gasp and glare at him. Felix didn't retaliate much, Changbin still got water on him, until the devil did it for the 50th time.

Changbin glanced at the boy and flicked the water onto the half-soaked human. Felix slowly turned his head and let go of the sponge he was using. He kept eye contact with the devil as he grabbed the rag that was next to him; Changbin noticed it was soaking wet. "Whoops," Changbin said and screamed shortly after he finished his sentence when Felix threw it at him, laughing hysterically when it landed on the devil's face.

Changbin groaned and slowly took the disgusting rag off of his face. "figlio di puttana," Changbin cursed and Felix looked at him, laughing harder as he watched the devil wipe the water off of his face with his sweatshirt sleeve. He would've thrown the towel back, but he stopped his action; watching the human in front of him who was now sitting on the floor still laughing while holding his stomach.

Changbin has seen Felix smile and laugh, but never this hard. He had this sad, guarded, protective aura around him that was easy to get through, but it was getting hard to break whatever shell Felix was tucked in. They had their playfight moments, most of it being a friendly wrestling match, Changbin letting Felix win to gain the boy's trust, but he'd never see Felix laugh as hard as he did now.

Changbin lowered his arm and placed the towel in the sink. He took a glance at the dishes and saw they were all done and cleaned; dried as well. He gave a soft chuckle as he heard hiccups started coming from Felix and groans of pain. "Ow, my stomach hurts," Felix whined as his laughs dialed down.

Changbin frowned and sat next to the male, leaning against the other cabinet. Felix's head automatically fell to the male's shoulder and his eyes shut; hiccups coming from him every so often as a silence fell over them. Changbin kept his hands on his knees as he stared at the wall in front of them. He glanced towards the now calmed human every so often to make sure he was fine. They sat together for a few minutes, enjoying the silence and each other's presence; Felix wouldn't admit that to Changbin's face though.

The final time Changbin glanced at Felix since hiccups died down, he saw his eyes were shut with a relaxed aura surrounding him. He smiled and carefully started moving around, gently taking Felix's head and moving it to the floor so he was in a lying position. It was the second night in a row he had to carry Felix to bed, but he didn't mind.

He scooped the tired human into his arms and stood up with ease; adjusting how he was holding him before making the short distance to Felix's room. Felix's eyes jared open and he instantly zoned out as he stared at the devil in front of him. Felix hoped Changbin wasn't hearing his thoughts or he would jump out of the window out of embarrassment. He quickly closed his eyes when Changbin opened the door with his hip.

Felix had already changed into more comfortable clothes, so he was practically ready for bed. Changbin set him on the bed and ruffled his hair. "Wake up and brush your teeth," Changbin said and he disappeared out of the room afterward. Felix opened an eye after a few seconds and sat up slowly. Once he noticed he was completely alone, he gently hit the side of his head; punishing himself for complimenting Changbin in his thoughts. "Don't get attached," Felix mumbles as he gets out of bed.

Obviously, Felix was already attached, but who is he to admit that.
