LCL 11.

TW: profanity, fluff.

YONGBOK'S POV:

It was very late in the night, I was giving the boy a bath while trying not to have a mental breakdown. His bones were visible and he was extremely dirty.
Jisung and I made him dinner earlier and he munch it down in no time. It was so cute but still a little sad.

I finally took him out and put him in a small shirt that I brought with me, it was slightly big on him but that'll do, till the morning I'm going to take him shopping and get him a few things. A few as in thousands of things. Tomorrow is his yes day.

I held his hand on the way to Hyunjin's room, his little run was so cute, I nearly died.

Hyunjin chuckled at the sight of me being childish but I couldn't help it.

"I never seen you be so nice to someone."

"First he's just a toddler and second isn't him so dorable!?" I say pick him up, throwing him to the air, and catching him, then flying him around like an airplane. His giggles melted my heart, I already love this child.

"So what's his name?" Hyunjin asks me.

"Well, he said he didn't have one..." I started to get sad again and held him in my lap, looking at him with a small smile.

"Why don't you give him one then?"

"You think so?"

Hyunjin nodded.

"Hmm, what should I name you?"

"How about Yu-jun?"

"Oh, I actually like that, really. Where did that name come from?"

"Well when I was younger I always promised to name my first kid, if it was a boy, Yu-jun, but it turns out that won't be happening."

"What? Why not?"

"Because I have no interest in women."

"Oh right." I began to laugh a bit although it was kind of sad.

"So Yu-jun. it is." I say to to the boy.

"I like." He responds with a smile. GOSH HES SO CUTE I WANT TO BUY HIM THE WORLD.

"Felix, you mind taking him into the opened room down the hall so he could rest, I do need to talk to you about something."

"Oh yeah, sure." I took him to the room it was a bit smaller, but enough space for him, with LED'S. I tucked him in and turned it to dark-blue so the room wouldn't be too bright or too dark.

"Is that okay, sweetie?"

He nodded and yawned. I gave him a small peck on the forehead and told him goodnight.

"Night, night, Felix." I smiled again before returning to the room with Hyunjin.

"So what did you want to talk about?"

"We can't keep him, Felix."

"Well that was straight to the fucking point, but why not?"

"It just won't work, it's dangerous, and we won't be able to watch him 24/7. I know he means a lot to you, and you'd be great for him if you were able to, but I'm sorry Felix, it just won't work."

"Well where else are we supposed to him, Hyunjin?"

"Adoption center."

"No! They won't treat him right there. That whole system is a scam. We can't."

"Felix. That's the way it has to be, and I'm sorry."

HYUNJIN'S POV:

His expression changed from bright to dull. I hated that sight with everything in me but this was the way it'll have to be.

"Okay." Was all he said before going to the mirror to pin his hair up. I could see from afar, through the mirror, his eyes becoming watery. He quickly wiped the tears away, and put the final pins into his hair.

Once he was done I turned off the lamp and got closer to him.

"Felix, I'm sorry."

"It's fine. Goodnight, Hyunjin."

I usually spoon him, nothing intimate, but I had a feeling he didn't want to be bothered tonight so I just left him alone.

•••••••••••••

I woke up earlier than usual, yet Felix wasn't by my side. I went to the room the boy was in and they were t there either. Don't tell me he did what I think.... I quickly went downstairs and sigh of relief. They were sitting and watching cartoons and Felix's iPad. It was actually a pretty calming sight.

"Goodmorning, Felix." I say and put my head on his shoulder to watch with them.

"Morning." His voice was softer than usual, I hated when he was like this. I always felt guilty.

"Goodmorning guys." He says, I smile at him and went to pick him up.

"Goodmorning tiny, you remember your name?" I said before tickling him. He started to laugh, not being able to get his words out.

"I can't hear you!" I started to tickle him more and laugh with him. I could see Felix smiling a bit towards me. He truly loves this kid.

I stopped tickling him.

"Can you tell me your name now?"

"Yu-" but before he could get his sentence out I started to tickle him again. Felix grabbed my arm with a light chuckle.

"You're  going to make him burst."

"Well the little one won't tell me his name."

"I Yu-jun!" The boy said before playfully punching me. I dramatically passed out cause him to freak out and apologize, which Felix started to laugh at.

"I didn't know you were good with kids."

"I didn't either"

"I guess that makes sense. I'm going to miss him.."
He says before hugging him.

I sighed.

"Well he has to go now..."

"Wait can I come with you, and can you take me to pick my car up. I have to get back to work today."

"Felix, you know it's dangerous right?"

"I'll call you if I need you, I just need to take my mind off of things."

"You promise to call if you're in trouble? Don't do anything on your own."

"I promise."

"Alright let's go."

Felix picked up the child and got into the back seat with him. He didn't want to let him go whatsoever. It pained me to see him this way, but it's for the best. I continued to drive to Felix's house, it was a very unpleasant ride. The atmosphere was just depressing, the music on low, to be included.

As we arrived to Felix's house he side and got out of the car, and bent down towards Yu-jun with a small smile.

"It was nice meeting you, I'll always visit you Yu-jun. I love you, okay?"

"I love too, Felix." Felix smiled once again and gave me him a small peck on the forehead.

"Later, Jin-ah." He said quite dull before walking to his car. I looked back at the kid, his face fell into sadness and small tears formed in the corner of his eyes. He held onto Felix's favorite plushie and in his other hand Felix's iPad, that he could never put away.

Shit. Now I'm sad.
