"I'm sorry I should've believed you in the first place!" Felix cried in Hyunjin's shoulder. After the immense relief and happiness Felix couldn't help but to feel 'a little' quilty for questioning Hyunjin. He continued sobbing, mostly out of relief but also not being able to stop anyway.

"Felix, it's alright." Hyunjin said softly. He took Felix in a tight embrace and softly stroked his hair. He let his hand grab the back of Felix's soft hair and then moved it down just to lift it up and repeat the motion. Felix continued apoligising either way and Hyunjin kept comforting him without any worries.

After all, he was holding his husband, his Felix. His Felix, who was safe in his arms.

"Hyunjin!" Hyunjin heard from behind him. He recognised Minho's voice at once and sighed. Hyunjin carefully pulled away from their hug and turned around. He watched as Minho and the rest of the group came running around the corner.

He felt slightly annoyed that his friend had to interrupt him this early in his long-awaited reunion with Felix, but at the same he felt grateful because this also meant they didn't have to go chasing the group later on if they lost them.

Felix, however, had no idea who those people were, and panicked at once. With the knowledge that he was still the target he quickly picked up the gun and aimed it right between Minho's eyes, since he was standing the closest.

Minho, and with that the rest of the group, immediately stopped in his tracks. He anxiously watched Felix hold the gun with shaky hands. He threw a quick look at Hyunjin, almost as if he was trying to say: 'Keep your man in check.'

"Ho! Calm down there, buddy!" Minho exclaimed anxiously. Felix looked at Hyunjin and the elder just put his hand on top of the gun to indicate everything was alright.

With a loud sigh Felix lowered the gun down. His body slumped in exhaustion as he leaned against Hyunjin. He muttered a quick 'I'm sorry' with a contorted face, almost as if he was in pain. Which, in fact, he was.

"Felix!" Jisung suddenly yelled. Felix looked up in surprise at the familiar voice and felt his jaw drop when he saw Jisung running towards him. His heart skipped a beat in something between relief and happiness at seeing his lost friend. And he just couldn't help but let a soft smile crack on his exhausted face.

Without even having to ask permission Jisung let himself fall onto his knees as he embraced Felix tightly.

"Thank God you're ok!" Jisung said. Felix, still slightly in shock, did nothing but slowly wrap his arms around Jisung.
"Jisung? What are you doing here?" Felix asked in confusion, the soft smile still visible on his face. Jisung pulled away from the hug. He was about to start a rant of how he had landed in the group when he grabbed Felix's upper arms, making the man gasp in pain.

Jisung pulled his hands away immediately, although not sure what he had done wrong. He eyed Felix worriedly and threw Hyunjin a questioning look.

"What's wrong?" Both Hyunjin and Jisung asked in unison. Felix just shook his head, trying to convince both of the men that he was fine, but both of them didn't buy it.

Felix lifted his hand to rub his upper left arm, exposing himself at once.

"Felix, what's that with your arm?" Hyunjin asked worriedly. He scooched closer to Felix, of that was even possible, as well as Jisung took a step back. He stood up and worriedly watched Felix try to stand up as well with the help of Hyunjin.

Felix just shook his head with an awkward smile, but Hyunjin's worry only grew at that. He carefully removed Felix's hand off his arm under soft protest of the other.
