Felix had to leave, he wanted to

Felix had to leave, he wanted to. He couldn't stand to be there anymore. Rushing past the party goers, Jisung could be seen trying to follow after him. He wanted to apologize- consumed with guilt. It started to settle in how dangerous this could all get.

To have a friendship end over a stupid game... he'd take all the things he said back in a heartbeat if it meant getting Felix back.

Just as Felix returned to the other side of the building  and into the right apartment through a connecting hall, he was stopped by Chan. "That was messed up." He mumbled, eyeing the blonde in red standing before him.

"I just- I can't deal with this right now. I'm gonna go." Felix was stammering, walking past him. His entire body was shaking, not only due to the adrenaline, but the anxiety he was feeling over his friendship with Jisung.

Chan let him pass, but spoke up in his last attempt to stop him. "Lix, did you know that he's played Nerve before?"

And it worked. "What?" He turned around, eyeing Chan.

"Yea, it was his dare to get you here and fight with Jisung. That's why he brought you here." Chan spoke fact, pulling his phone out, he extended his arm, showing him the dare. "Look."

There it was. On Hyunjin's Nerve profile, his live feed, the dare sprawled across the screen.

His brows furrowed. "You still trust him?" Chan asked, lowering his phone.

Hyunjin had seen everything and he quickly found himself making his way over to Felix, apologizing. For a second, he didn't know what to say, but he knew he had to say something. "Felix..-"

He ignored the boy in black, hurt in his eyes as he pushed past everyone, rushing out the door. "Lix-" He ran after him. "Lix, wait. Wait!"

Chan watched them leave, sighing. Cursing under his breath. He should've been there for him.. Not Hyunjin.

Making his way towards the elevator, Felix spoke up. "Is it true?"

Hyunjin had sped up, reaching forward to grab at his wrist, his attempt at getting his attention. "Is what true?"

His gaze would narrow. "Did you take me here as a part of the game?"

Finding himself at a stand still, speechless, full of regret, Hyunjin swallowed thickly, meeting his gaze. "I-"

Felix just wanted to hear him say it. "Answer me! Is it true?"

He felt his walls cave in and he knew that if he wanted to tell Felix the whole truth. He had to tell him somewhere quiet. Somewhere he knew people weren't watching his every move. Peering over his shoulder, he spotted a few watchers filming them from where they came. So, Hyunjin made the decision to drag him to the elevator. He tugged on Felix's arm, giving him no choice but to follow, sprinting inside.

Thankfully it was stopped on their floor. Once the doors shut, he frantically pulled on the emergency stop button.

"What are you doing?!" Felix questioned.
