District 9 // Chanlix [Completed]

XV: The Devil

It had been a few days. Felix still hadn't woken up. Chris tended to his wounds, wondering when the boy would finally open his eyes. Jisung had held back from asking any personal questions over the days he was around, however he could read Chris' expressions and understand the way he looked at Felix.

The way his eyes went soft when he touched the boys face. They held some kind of delicate look in them. Some kind of affection when Chris changed the bandages on Felix.

Nothing had happened much. No one had been hunting for anyone else, however Nayeon joined them. She helped with taking care of Felix and Chris' wounds. She seemed good at that. Good at comforting others.

Chris and Jisung left her to watch over Felix as they collected resources, finding a stream. Jisung sat down, making Chris sit next to him.

"I have a question." He started. Chris nodded.

"I might have an answer." He said.

"Is there... Something going on with you and Felix?" He asked. Chris' cheeks flushed red and he shook his head.

"No, no, it's not like that." Chris assured him. However, Jisung knew there was something else. He stared at Chris until Chris finally looked back at him and answered. "Okay, fine. Maybe. I don't know. I've only known him for a bit but... There's something about him that makes me want to protect him... And... Kiss him... And just wish we could live a normal life together." He said. Jisung didn't ask for that much, but he took what he could get.

"Are you gonna do anything about it?" Jisung asked. Chris shook his head.

"We're all meant to kill each other. There's no way out of this situation that we're in. How can you fall in love at a time like this." He said. Jisung nodded.

"You have a point. However, I won't hurt either of you just to stay alive. I'd rather be killed than hurt anyone else in this fucked up game." Chris agreed.

"Here, keep this." Chris said as he took a card from his pocket. It was the justice card. In exchange, Jisung have him his chain bracelet. They headed back to their little camp, meeting up with Nayeon.

Felix was sitting up, eyes fully open. As soon as he saw Chris, He smiled, but the smile went away when he saw Jisung. Chris reassured him quickly.

"It's okay, he's with us now." He told him. Felix tilted his head. "Do you remember much?" Felix shook his head.

"Um... Nothing really. I really only remember waiting in the bushes with you." Felix said. Chris nodded.

"You were too close to the cornucopia and Minho stepped on a landmine. The impact killed him and sent you flying halfway across the arena." Jisung said. When he spoke of Minho his voice had a feeling of sadness. It was so thick in his voice that it almost made Felix cry.

"And... Minho... Was..." Felix started, looking for an answer. Jisung just turned around, sighing.

"Really fucking important to me." Was all he said back before walking away. Nayeon silently followed to make sure he was okay. Felix turned to Chris.

"What happened to your eye?" He asked. Chris looked down as Felix touched it. The boy winced at the slight pain under Felix's thumb. "Oh, sorry."

"It's fine. Changbin elbowed my eye. I don't think I'll ever be able to see out of it... Ever again... It feels like it's completely crushed." Chris said. Felix frowned.

"Changbin hurt you? How?"

"I ran into him. He tried to kill me, but someone else got to him before he could and saved me. Hyunjin." Chris explained. Felix's eyes widened.

"Changbin... He's gone?!" Felix exclaimed. Chris nodded.

"Yeah... I can barely believe it either. I thought I'd die." Chris said. "Anyway, stop worrying about me. You haven't eaten in a while. We have to get you something to eat."
