i woke up randomly and upon checking the time, i realized it was 1am. i tried to remember what had happened before i fell asleep, my brain fuzzy from sleep.

did everyone go home?
how did i get in my bed?

i sat up, looking around my dark room to see my door cracked, which let me know someone put me in here because i always shut my door fully.

i stood up, waiting for the dizziness to go away before quietly opening my door and peeking out into the living room. it was dark and silent, how it normally was. did everyone really leave?

i made my way into the kitchen for a snack, not trying to be quiet since it was my own house. i left the lights off though, because they'd hurt my eyes.

as i opened a cabinet and rummaged through it, i almost screamed as a flashlight was shined on my face from the living room. i grabbed my heart in fear and breathed out deeply, trying to not be embarrassed for jumping.

"hyunjin!! jesus christ you gave me a heart attack!" i said, still clutching my heart. i heard a light chuckle as he turned off his flashlight and i flipped on the kitchen light, wincing and shutting my eyes dramatically.

"sorry felix, i thought you were someone breaking in." he said with a shy chuckle, rubbing his hand through his long hair.

"when did everyone go home?" i asked, grabbing 2 packs of skittles and moving to the living room.

"around 6, you had already fallen asleep on me and i fell asleep once they left, so when i woke up i moved you to your bed, i hope that's okay." i watched as he explained, looking down.

i walked in front of him, extending my hand with a pack of skittles for him to take. he looked up at me confused at first, but finally took them from me and smiled.

"thank you."

"thank you for taking care of me, i'm used to not having anyone but yeonjun hyung to do that." i said, sitting down on the floor in front of him and facing him, looking up to see him.

i watched as he opened his skittles, pouring a few into his hand and eating them all at once. he frowned when he registered my words, looking down at me with sad eyes.

"i'm sorry." he said quietly, not making eye contact with me. i continued to gaze up at him yet he busied his eyes elsewhere.

i stayed silent, not knowing if i should immediately forgive him since his group encouraged what happened today.

"i um.." i began, dragging my eyes away from him now.

"don't. you don't have to forgive me." he mumbled, setting his barely eaten bag of skittles on the couch beside him and standing up.

my eyes followed his figure as he moved towards the door and i realized he was leaving.

"i'm sorry, i didn't mean to upset you." i said, feeling upset with the way he was abruptly leaving. he turned to me, giving me a small smile, gently shaking his head 'no'.

"my number is in your phone, call me if you need me, okay?" he said, now looking directly into my eyes. i panicked slightly, not liking the attention on me but i nodded.

"...thank you. for.. you know. i don't know what came over me. just felt like there was finally enough shit wrong in my life to finally end it. thank you." i said, keeping his gaze now as his face softened. he bowed slightly, turning to the door but stopping.

i was engulfed in a tight hug as he crouched on the ground with me in his arms. i felt a smile creep onto my face as i hugged him back, relishing his warm embrace.
