Chapter twenty-one: The truth about his past

The blond groans in frustration and throws his phone across the bed. He turns on the side and looks around his room, boredom taking over him.

Moments like these are the worst for the blond. Doing nothing but lying in bed all day long is something he used to run away from. He used to overwork himself constantly, not even having time to sleep. But now? What is he even supposed to do? What do people do when they're bored?

He closes his eyes and sighs, putting his right hand on top of his left one. The latter frowns and opens his eyes at the feeling of bumps under his fingertips. He gazes upon a rose shaped scar he almost forgot about. He smiles warmly at the sight and sits up on the bed. The boy takes back his phone from the other end of the bed and opens his chat with Sam, something he's never done before since the older hates getting messages from anyone in general. Felix opens his camera and snaps a picture of the scar, sending it to Sam later on.

The blond frowns and puts the phone on the surface of his bed, screen facing downwards. He crosses his arms across his chest and looks ahead, a pout visible on his lips. Though the sound of his phone gets his attention, he refuses to check what message he got this time and just looks around his room while scowling. Yet another few dings are heard from his phone. This time, the blond picks up the phone and looks at the new texts with a softer look on his face.

Felix widens his eyes the moment he finishes reading the messages. The sound of his door opening makes him jump at the sudden movement. The two men make eye contact for a few seconds before Sam runs to Felix's bed and jumps on top of the younger. The red haired male embraces the blond in a hug whilst chuckling. "So you were ignoring me."

The blond just rolls his eyes, not hugging back the taller. Sam scoffs at this and sits up on the bed beside Felix. He looks back at him and sighs loudly. "You're still mad?" Felix nods slowly while looking away from the man beside him. Sam chuckles and rolls his eyes playfully. He puts one of his hands on the other's while smiling ever so slightly. "Did you really think I forgot?" At the older's words, the blond just frowns in confusion. Sam shakes his head and looks up at Felix. "I'm the one who gave you this scar, how could I ever forget about it?" the older utters quietly, almost in a whisper, as he traces his fingers along Felix's hand.

A smile appears on the younger's face as he raises his eyebrows. "Really? You remember?"

Sam nods and looks at the scar. "We're the only ones who have it. Wanna see mine?"

The younger gasps ever so slightly and nods his head excitedly with a grin on his lips. Sam hums and turns around only to end up raising his own shirt. Felix widens his eyes at the sight of the red headed's scarred back. His back has the same beautiful scar Felix has on his arm, yet his scar is as big as his back while Felix's is as big as the back of his hand.
