Hyunjin sighed and held Felix a little closer. "We have to get out, love. He will be here soon.." He stated with disappointment.

Felix chuckled softly and pulled away to look the artist in the eyes, brushing his cheek gently. "You're really cute when you're all needy." He kissed him tenderly and ran his hands through his hair to slick it back. "And ridiculously handsome.." He mused with a disbelieving scoff.

Hyunjin smirked and turned over his shoulder to stop the water. "Thank you, Angel.." He lifted the younger's chin gently and pressed their lips together one last time, opening the curtain in the meantime.

"Shit... I don't have another towel in here. Let me grab you one." The artist wrapped his towel around his waist and vanished through the door, returning shortly after with a blue towel in his hand.

Felix smiled softly. "Najia... is this towel new?" He mused with raised brows.

Hyunjin smirked and shrugged his shoulders. "I wanted to have some more in the hopes that you would be staying here more often.."

Felix giggled sweetly and dried himself off on the still soft fabric. He slowed down his movements and just admired the gorgeous man on the outer side of the tub. The conversation he had with Jisung replayed in his head...

"Najia.." He started softly with a hint of insecurity in his voice.

The older immediately halted his movements and turned to face Felix, the tone of voice setting alarm bells in his mind. "What's wrong..?" He asked with concern, checking over the younger's body for any injuries or bruises.

Felix smiled softly with loving eyes and cupped Hyunjin's face to look at him. "I'm okay.. I just.. you told Jisung that you didn't want to exploit me?"

Hyunjin tilted his head questioningly and furrowed his brows. "Yeah... of course. I would never want to do that, Angel."

"But you didn't know me... why did you think that you could?" Felix followed up.

Hyunjin dropped his expression to sympathy, kissing the younger's hand like he was royalty. "Because you're an Angel." He explained. "It's not hard to recognize that you put others above yourself. With the way that..." He stopped.

"Woo?" Felix asked after the long pause, figuring he just didn't want to bring it up.

"Yeah... with the way he talked to you, and how it seemed like you were always trying to keep the peace... I'm sorry, Angel." The artist cringed slightly. "I didn't mean to judge yo-"

Felix immediately shook his head and kissed the older softly.

"I'm not upset.. everything yesterday just got me thinking.." He furrowed his brows as if he was deep in thought. "What is therapy like?"

Hyunjin seemed taken back by the question. "Well, it depends on who you work with.. and the day, honestly. It can be tiring and frustrating... but I literally wouldn't be here without it.." He smiled softly, looking down at their joined hands. "Both on this earth and here with you." He kissed his nose sweetly.

Felix smiled at the corny but sweet action.

"Are you thinking of going?" The artist asked with interest, not a single hint of judgement in his voice. He sounded happy.

Felix shrugged his shoulders in return. "I don't know... I know that what you guys did was wrong.. but I want to figure out what made it to where I was in the position I was with Woo in the first place."

Hyunjin looked at him with apologetic eyes. "I'm sorr-"

"I know.. Najia." Felix smiled softly with a reassuring look. "I'm not saying it's okay, but after what Sung said I started to think, and looking back... I really did accept less than I would want anyone to accept from a relationship. I just want to get to a place that I can stand up for myself..  you know?" He sighed with frustration.
