It was around forty five minutes later when Seungmin had finally calmed down enough to walk back out to the waiting room. Five minutes after that, they heard someone call out, "visitors for Bang Chan?"

"That's us," Felix stood immediately, Seungmin doing the same.

"I'll start by saying he will be alright," the doctor announced, "although because he had lost quite a lot of blood, plus the lack of oxygen for a couple minutes, he is in a coma, of which we believe he should wake up in two to six weeks."

Despite the not so fantastic news of the eldest being in a coma, they were still all relieved to hear that the boy was going to be fine. Seungmin looked down, his neck being sore from staring upwards for so long. After being informed of the Australian's room number, they all headed back to see for themselves that he was okay.

As they all piled in, there were still a couple nurses taking notes on Chan's state before exiting. Seungmin walked over first, taking a seat by the Chan's bed. Hyunjin looked at the time and spoke, "Seungmin, you should head home to get some sleep."

"I'm not sleeping," Seungmin replied simply as he looked at the time, seeing in was nearly one forty in the morning.

"Seungmin really-" Changbin was cut off.

"I'll try tomorrow," Seungmin said.

"Seungmin please," Felix said, "I don't want to stay at my place alone anyway, Jisung is going with Minho again."

Seungmin looked over, "why not stay with Changbin?"

Felix and Changbin looked at each other and Changbin was going to say something but Felix beat him to it, "no. I'm not staying with him."

Seungmin wanted to ask why, but he figured, the others were right, he should go home. He looked back at Chan and took a deep breath as he stood, "okay, Lix, I'll go with you."

Felix gently smiled, "Hyunjin gave me a ride here so come on."

They all headed out, deciding to come back the following day in the afternoon since they did indeed still have jobs. Seungmin climbed into the back of Hyunjin's car, Felix doing the same and when they arrived at the apartment complex, Seungmin decided to ask, "okay what's going on, why are you and Changbin being weird?"

"I...we broke up," Felix said after a long pause.

"What?" Seungmin asked.

"He...he has a crazy ex girlfriend," Felix said, explaining the entire situation that had happened over the past weeks.

"Oh wow," Seungmin said gently, "I'm sorry, Lix."

Felix nodded, "it's going to be okay is what I keep telling myself. I still love him, I just...if he was able to get a restraining order against her, why wouldn't he tell me about her? She was clearly a problem to him, I thought he would've shared that with me."

"He should've," Seungmin nodded, "but I know that he means what he says when he said he's not giving up on you."

Felix nodded, "I know. I don't know what to do right now, today has been too much."

"Go sleep," Seungmin said.

"I'm going to get you something to wear to sleep," Felix said.

"I don't want to change," Seungmin said, worried, "my shirt..it's..."

"Hey, I'll take care of it," Felix said with a gentle smile, "let me try to help?"

Seungmin nodded, "okay."
