No-ones POV-
The investigation had drawn Felix and Hyunjin closer than ever. Late nights spent poring over files and discussing theories had turned into shared laughs and meaningful glances. The line between friendship and something deeper blurred with each passing day, and Felix found himself savoring the moments they spent together. Each time Hyunjin smiled at him, a warmth unfurled in his chest, but with that warmth came an unsettling anxiety—could Hyunjin really accept who he was?
As the team continued to track Kira's movements, Hyunjin worked tirelessly behind the scenes, analyzing every piece of evidence. It was during one of these late-night sessions, cloaked in shadows and flickering screens, that Hyunjin stumbled upon something that made his heart drop. Raye Penbar's last words were captured on security cameras—every detail of that fateful moment when he encountered Kira.
Hyunjin's breath hitched as he replayed the footage, his heart racing with every frame. There was Felix, looking composed and calm, yet there was an unmistakable air of tension around him. The realization hit like a cold wave: Felix was Kira.
"No," he whispered, feeling the weight of betrayal, yet his mind was clouded by confusion. Felix was the person he had grown to care for, the one who lit up his world with laughter and warmth. But this... this revelation threatened to shatter everything they had built.
Later that evening, as the team wrapped up their discussions, Hyunjin pulled Felix aside, urgency swirling in his chest. "Can we talk?" he asked, his tone serious.
"Sure, what's up?" Felix replied, a hint of concern crossing his features.
They stepped outside, the air crisp as twilight descended. Hyunjin faced Felix, his heart pounding. "I know who Kira is," he began, forcing the words out despite the turmoil inside him.
Felix's expression shifted, a flicker of panic passing through his eyes. "What do you mean?"
"I mean I've seen the footage," Hyunjin said, voice steady despite the storm within. "I know it was you who confronted Raye Penbar."
Felix's laughter rang out, but it was a manic sound that sent chills down Hyunjin's spine. "You think I'm Kira? You think I'm the one you've been hunting?" His voice held a mix of disbelief and something else—defiance?
"Felix," Hyunjin pressed, heart racing. "This isn't a joke. I saw you. You killed him."
For a brief moment, silence enveloped them, the weight of Hyunjin's words hanging heavily in the air. Felix's eyes darkened, a storm brewing within. "Yes, I am Kira," he admitted, voice barely above a whisper, yet resolute.
Hyunjin felt the ground shift beneath him, a maelstrom of emotions swirling in his chest. "Why, Felix?" he asked, desperation creeping into his tone. "How could you—"
"I did what I had to do," Felix interrupted, his voice firm but laced with pain. "To rid the world of evil, to protect those I care about. You have to understand that."
"Understand? You took lives!" Hyunjin's voice rose, frustration and confusion battling within him.
"I had no choice!" Felix shot back, eyes flashing with intensity. "You think it's easy to carry this burden? I didn't want to become Kira, but it was the only way I could fight back!"
Hyunjin stared at him, heart aching. "And what about us? You lied to me! You let me in, and for what?"
Felix took a step forward, the vulnerability in his gaze cutting through Hyunjin's anger. "I never meant to deceive you. I thought—no, I hoped you could see me as more than just Kira. I thought you might understand."
In that moment, Hyunjin felt the walls he'd built begin to crumble. The truth was painful, but there was something undeniable in Felix's words. "I don't want to turn you in," he admitted, the weight of his confession heavy in the air. "I won't. I care about you too much."
Felix's expression shifted, surprise giving way to relief. "You don't want to report me?" he asked, disbelief lacing his tone.
"Felix, I love you," Hyunjin confessed, taking a step closer, his heart racing. "No matter what you've done, I want to be with you. I don't want to lose you to this."
Felix's breath caught in his throat, emotions swirling within him. "You... love me?" he echoed, eyes wide, a mix of hope and fear dancing in his expression.
"Yes," Hyunjin affirmed, inching closer, his heart pounding. "I know this is complicated, but I can't deny how I feel. I want to be with you, no matter what happens."
Felix's heart raced at Hyunjin's words. "But what if I'm dangerous?" he asked, his voice trembling.
"Maybe. But I believe there's still good in you," Hyunjin replied, a fierce determination in his gaze. "And we can figure this out together."
In that moment, the air between them crackled with tension, unspoken words hanging heavy. Felix reached out, his hand brushing against Hyunjin's, igniting a fire in Hyunjin's chest.
"Together?" Felix asked, his voice steady, eyes searching Hyunjin's.
"Together," Hyunjin affirmed, a smile breaking through the tension. "We'll face whatever comes next. I promise."
Felix leaned in, their foreheads touching, breaths mingling in the cool evening air. "I love you too," he admitted, voice shaking. "I never wanted to hurt anyone, but I was lost... until you."
With a heartbeat, they closed the distance between them, hearts pounding as they shared a kiss—soft at first, then deepening with a passion that felt electric. The world around them faded away, leaving only the two of them, entwined in a moment that felt both perilous and beautiful.
As they pulled apart, breathless, Felix looked into Hyunjin's eyes, seeing the trust and love reflected there. "What now?" Felix asked, a mixture of fear and hope threading through his voice.
Hyunjin squeezed his hand tightly, determination lighting up his features. "Now we figure it out. Together."
And with that, they turned back toward the world, hands intertwined, ready to confront the challenges ahead, their love forging a new path in the darkness.
The End
