Keeping someone safe🍼🧸

Littles: Chan & Felix

Caregiver: Changbin

No one's POV.:

3racha had only returned to their dorm in the early morning hours after a long night at the studio but luckily, they'd have the following day off to sleep in and recuperate. Chan felt guilty for working so late because he had promised Felix to have a sleep over that night, so they could wake up together on their day off. To make matters worse, Felix had waited up for the older all night, his littlespace bag waiting next to his bedroom door, so he just had to grab it once it was time to sneak over to the other dorm. He just had to wait for a text from Chan but the text never came. Figuring his dongsaeng had probably already fallen asleep, Chan didn't message him and decided to just apologize for standing him up the next day. That was why he was so surprised when his bedroom door creaked open not long after he had gone to bed. Not wanting to miss out on a night of cuddles but feeling unable to stay awake any longer, Felix had snuck over to sleep in Chan's bed, so the other could cuddle him as soon as he'd come home even if Felix would be asleep at that point. That was why he felt betrayed when he realized that Chan had actually already returned from work but hadn't texted him.

"Lix?", Chan asked sleepily, sitting up when he heard the thud of the other's bag hitting the ground. Tears stinging his eyes, Felix sniffled: "Why chu nuh teww Lixxie? Me waits aww night fow chu. Chu nuh wanna cuddwe Pixxie nuh mowe?" – "Oh sunshine", Chan sighed, realizing his dongsaeng had already slipped. "Nuh!", the dancer denied, "Chu nuh get caw me dat." – "Listen, Pixxie", the leader shushed, patting the spot next to him, "It was late and I thought you were already asleep. I didn't want to wake you, that's why I didn't text. I'm sorry, I really am." Felix huffed at that, refusing to sit down next to his hyung. He had been looking forward to their sleepover for weeks, so for Chan to just stand him up because he 'thought he was already asleep' hurt. Chan should know how excited his dongsaeng got over plans like this, so there was no way he'd been able to just fall asleep like that.

Feeling even worse realizing that Felix' wouldn't accept his apology like that, Chan picked up his stuffed wolf and hugged the plushie to his chest. He couldn't help his mind getting all fuzzy after such a long day and he chewed on the plushie's ear to hold back his own tears. Abandoning his bag, Felix turned and left. He couldn't stand being in the same room after what the older had done. Since he didn't find the energy to go back to his own dorm right away, Felix curled up on the couch, crying into one of the cushions.

As the door shut behind Felix, Chan burst into tears. Felix was the only one who knew about his headspace and vice versa, the two of them keeping each other's secret safe and taking care of each other every opportunity they got. Felix was his home, the person Chan could always turn to when he needed someone and now Felix too had left him behind. Chan knew it was his own fault. He had promised to text him as soon as he got home and he hadn't. 'Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!', the leader scolded himself as he hit his head against the wall behind him. It surely did nothing to ease the headache he had been nursing all day but he deserved it. He had broken a promise and lost the person he knew he couldn't bear to lose.

Changbin startled awake to a thud. Then there was another. Furrowing his brows, the rapper tried to figure out what the noise was but couldn't. Now that he closely paid attention, he could hear someone crying in the living room. Growing even more confused and worried, Changbin threw off his blanket and got out of bed to check who was in the living room. "Lixxie?", he yawned as he approached the couch, plucking the cushion out of his dongsaeng's hands. Taking a seat next to the younger, Changbin raised an eyebrow at the grabby hands the Aussie did. Unsure whether Felix wanted the cushion or him, the rapper opened his arms and quickly returned the hug when his dongsaeng clung to him. Properly pulling the younger into his lap, Changbin whispered: "What's wrong?" Felix only cried harder at that, pressing his face into his hyung's shoulder. "Channie nuh wan' Pixxie nuh mowe", he choked out between sobs, struggling to breathe. Though the rapper was confused by the way his dongsaeng talked, he shushed: "Easy, Lix. There's no way Chan could possibly not want you anymore. Did you have a nightmare?" Felix shook his head, hands tightly fisted in the other's shirt.
