They had prepared a long while for this. Mr. Kim gave him run down after run down of what to say or do when asked certain questions and his father couldn't help but repeat them after every five minutes.

This was actually happening. They were going to court to-day.

Jisung's hands shook as he put on his fancy suit, looking himself in the mirror. He remembered when Minho had driven him home after that party.

How he had given him that book.

Felix walking in through the bathroom door now, watching how Jisung was studying himself through the mirror. "You look so pretty." Felix smiled leaning against the doorframe.

"Yeah.." was all Jisung said. It was a weak reply but it was also all he could give. His mind was completely gone to other places right now.

"Don't worry Sungie, I promise you'll do so great." Felix moved away from the door and went to go wrap his friend in a comforting hug, "Everyone will be cheering for you."

Felix had come over by request of Jisung to help him get ready and give his classic 'best friend moral support'. Jisung was more than thankful that he agreed so that now he wasn't alone when his dad went crazy obsessive over something.

Felix had never judged Jisung for his dad and he liked that. Even when he wasn't being fed or clothed properly as a younger child when his dad was too busy with work he was always there to help.

Offering for Jisung to stay over at his place until his dad got through his obsessive little episode.

Jisung nodded, a lump forming in his throat. He knew that if he were to speak he would break out crying and he didn't need puffy eyes right before going to court, so he simply nodded.

Felix didn't push for him to speak any farther, "I'll be there, and so will Channie hyung, okay? I promise if something happens I won't hesitate to throw some punches." His harsh words were accompanied by gentle circles being rubbed onto his back.

Felix gave him one last squeeze in the hug before pulling away, "I know you'll do great." He whispered, and Jisung tried his hardest to stay focused on what Felix was saying but he simply couldn't.

"Jeong-Hoon.." his voice came out strangled as he blinked back the tears that pickled at his eyes, "I don't want to hurt Jeong-Hoon." He shook his head.

Felix kinked his eyebrows together in confusion, "Jisung, what?"

"What if hes actually not a bad guy? What if I'm overreacting? Felix this could ruin his life—"

"Just as he deserves. Jisung he's in your head – he knows that he's getting what he deserves because there is no way in hell that he gave you what you deserve. When it all comes down to it baby, he's a psychotic little bitch who can't keep it in his pants." Felix seemed to scold him and Jisung couldn't help but laugh.

"Ah, Lixie!" He whined, tears pooling down his cheeks, "You're worth the world I swear. What would I do without you to slap some sense into me."

Felix laughed as well, the two of them pulling into another hug, this one was shorter though. "I'm gonna go and get you some water okay? I'll be right back."

Jisung nodded and Felix was soon on his way. He skipped down the stairs and into the kitchen where he saw Mr. Han looking down at his laptop. Always with the laptop.

Without even looking up Mr. Han said, "Remember Jisung, don't talk to Minho more than you have to. If he tries to—Ah Felix. Sorry I thought you were Jisung." He said when he realized who it was.

Felix nodded and smiled politely, "No issues." Before going to the fridge to grab some water. He poured it into a glass and was about to leave, when he stopped.

He turned around to face the man, "Mr. Han?" He didn't know why he was doing this, this was a bad idea.

"Yes, Felix?"

"I think it's immature of you to be worrying about Minho at a time like this. Jisung would appreciate it if you, I don't know, maybe focused on helping him rather than scolding him."

There was a beat of shocked silence before Felix turned to walk away. He probably shouldn't have done that but Mr. Han had just been pissing him off so much lately.

He quickly opened the door of Jisung's bedroom again to see the elder – by literally one day – brushing through his hair for the millionth time today. "Jisung stop worrying about it, you look amazing I promise." He placed the cold glass on the dresser, "Now hydrate. Before you pass out from crying so much."

Jisung shot him a look, "I dont cry that much, thank you. I cry a perfectly average amount."

Felix rolled his eyes playfully, "Delusional, I say."

Jisung shook his head, taking the water anyway. When he was finished he took a deep sigh, "You think I'll ever get Minho back?"

"Anything is possible Jisung. If you wanted to you could choose to get him back right now, and judging on what Chan says he'd probably take you back in a heartbeat."

Jisung nodded, "Maybe when I'm 18 and financially independent.. and have the tools to repair my relationships with my dad."

Felix nodded.

"Ah yes. Your dad."
