You Saved Me

Twenty Six

I looked up from my glass as I heard Hyunjin laughing then I smiled softly as I saw Seungmin enraptured with the blonde.

"Felix, it's great having you here!" I looked at Innie then nodded, looking back into my glass.

"We get Felix, but we lose Changbin?" Chan snorted and I looked at him then the empty chair beside me.

"He... He's busy at work." I said and looked at my glass again.

"Felix, are you alright?" I looked at Lino and nodded, forcing a smile.

"Fine, Minho." I said and he scoffed.

"Now I know you're not! What's-" He stopped as my phone rang then I grabbed it and saw it was BM.

"Matt?" I answered and he sighed.

"Have you seen Changbin?" He asked and I frowned.

"No, I thought he was at work." I said, but he scoffed.

"No, he left for that dinner two hours ago and now he's not answering-"

"Dinner? Matt, I'm at the dinner and he's not here!" I said and my friends frowned as I looked at the empty space beside me.

"He's not there? He's only missed one dinner-"

"Matt, what was he doing today?" I asked and he sighed.

"He was working on the album for the comeback of the group. It wasn't anything too strenuous today, just uploading the tracks to the digital album. Well, work for him has been pretty easy lately actually. We're all jealous." He said and I nodded, looking at the table now.

"He's not answering his phone, Felix. Do you think you can try to call him, see if he answers you?" BM asked and I nodded.

"Ye-yeah, sure." I said and he thanked me then I hung up, trying to call Changbin.

"Felix, what's wrong?" Han asked me, though I ignored him as I waited. Except Changbin's phone went to voicemail. I frowned at my phone, unable to use the find friends app cause he was a Galaxy user, then I tried to call him again. Nothing.

"Changbin's not answering his phone." I said finally and locked my phone.

"He's at work, isn't-"

"BM said he left work two hours ago for the dinner." I said and Hyunjin's eyes widened.

"Do you think he's-"

"Felix, no, do not think that!" Seungmin said and I looked at him.

"Don't you dare for a second think the man who got a cartoon chicken tattooed on him for you is cheating on you!" Seungmin said and I nodded, looking at my phone as Changbin called.

"Hello?" I answered and heard him panting.

"I'm so sorry, baby! I got off work and went home to take a nap, but I ended up sleeping through my alarms! Are you still at the dinner?!" He asked and I frowned.

"It's nearly over, Changbin, don't bother-"

"I'm still coming, Felix, I'm nearly there!" He said and I scoffed as he hung up, glaring at my phone.

"Well?" Chan asked and I looked at him.

"He's on his way." I whispered and shook my head, texting BM that he was just napping. When Changbin showed up ten minutes later, he looked so out of breath.

"Sorry!" He panted and sat, but Hyunjin slid him water that he drank down. After a second glass, he smiled at me and kissed my head.

"Sorry, work was crazy!" He said and I frowned. BM said it's been easy though?

"It's alright, man, we were just worried." Innie said and Changbin grinned.

"So, how has everyone's month been?"

I watched him open the door then I went inside, arms crossed over my chest as he locked the door behind us. I pulled my shoes off then reached up, letting my hair down from the half ponytail it was in, stepping away right before he grabbed me.

"Hey, are you mad at me?" He asked, but I shook my head.

"No, Changbin, I'm just tired." I said, which wasn't a lie.

"Okay, do-do you want to watch a movie until we fall-"

"Night." I cut him off then went to the bed space, changing into my pajamas and laying down in bed. As I laid down, I heard him moving around the studio apartment then felt the bed dip as he laid behind me, his arm snaking around my waist.

"Baby, you... you would tell me if I upset you, right?" He asked and I turned my head to the side some and nodded, not saying anything.

"And I-I haven't upset you, right? Please, tell me if I did-"

"You didn't do anything, I'm really just tired." I said and he sighed, but tightened his hold on my waist.

I walked up to the studio then slowed as I saw Changbin leave the bathroom. I smiled, ready to walk forward, until I stopped as I saw that receptionist walk out of the bathroom. Why is she coming out of the men's bathroom? I frowned as I eyed her then I felt my heart stop as I saw her doing up her blouse, red on her cheeks, and her hair frazzled.

"Oh, Mr. Lee!" She greeted and smiled as she fixed her hair.

"H-hi." I whispered, clenching the bag of food in my hand tighter.

"Are you here to see Mr. Seo?" She asked and I frowned.

"Is-is he in the studio?" I asked, as if I hadn't seen him walk out just now.

"I uh... I believe he is! I can take the food to him!" She said, but I shook my head.

"It-it's okay, he's probably working. Can-can you just take this to the cafeteria and tell him I dropped by?" I asked and she nodded, taking the food.

"Of course, Mr. Lee!" She said and I nodded, turning and leaving the company before I cried. I knew it! I quickly got outside then ran to my car, locking the door behind me just as I let out a wail, holding the wheel and sobbing. I lifted my head as I heard my phone ringing then I saw it was Changbin and ignored the call, laying back in my seat and putting my hands over my mouth. I knew he was cheating on me!
