Felix stepped into his house cautiously, he peered around the door listening for signs of his parents. When he determined the coast was clear he fully stepped into the house, a large sigh escaped his lips as he made his way up the stairs to his room. He sat some bags down on his floor and smiled. He look at himself in his mirror, his bruises were fading and any discoloration of his skin was almost non existence. He then turned his attention to his outfit and did a small spin; he was pretty, handsome even. 

A loud knock visibly startled the Australian boy, making him jump. He quickly made his way to his door, opening it with hesitation. There stood his father, angry. 

"Lee Felix," He said, his breath reeked making  Felix  cringe, "Where have you been?" 

Felix answered quickly, "I went shopping." 

His father grunted and grabbed the boy by his collar, pulling him out of his room, "You left without permission?" 

"Mom said I could go." Felix coughed out. 

His father dragged Felix more, they were close to the staircase. He lifted the boy and dangled the boy, threatening to make him fall.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Dad please, I'm sorry." Felix repeated, his eyes were glazed with tears. 

His father ignored his son's pleas, throwing the boy down the stairs. Felix tumbled down the stairs loudly, this wasn't the first time his father has done this and it wouldn't be the last. He reached the bottom of the stairs with a big thump and he laid there teetering between consciousness and unconsciousness. He heard his father's frantic footsteps coming down the stairs but he had no power to move. The next strike came quickly, his father kicked him in the gut-hard causing him to cough up blood. 

"Stand up, boy." His father seethed. 

Felix groaned, forcing whatever remaining energy he had to help him up. 

"You are not to do anything without my permission, fuck your mother. You are not to leave this house with out my permission, you are not to eat or drink without my approval," his father slapped him and Felix stumbled a bit, "You know this. Stop breaking my rules." 

Felix nodded vigorously. 

"Use your words!" His father shouted right into his ear. 

"Yes, yes I'm sorry." Felix said. 

"Get out of my sight." His father sneered.  

Felix went up the stairs as quickly as he could, he was limping and could barely feel many parts of his body. He reached his room and closed his door quietly. He limped over to his mirror and stared at what he saw as his reflection. He looked like shit. His face was swollen, bruised and bloody. He was not the handsome boy who he saw only ten minutes ago. He was a wreck. 

Felix barely made it too his legs before his legs collapsed on him and he slipped into a deep unconscious state.

Seungmin sat at Hyunjin's room at his desk, the younger boy was reading a book and waiting for Hyunjin to return from the bathroom. Hyunjin and Seungmin often hung out together at either one of their houses to the point where their respective parents were not surprised if either one just walked into their house.

 Seungmin rolled his eyes at the main character's antics and closed his book with a frustrated sigh, he loved reading but sometimes that character's were such dumb asses that he couldn't take it. He slipped his book in his bag then saw a letter that he received from some girl for Hyunjin, he grabbed it and fumbled around with it a bit. The letter was enclosed in a pink envelope that had various hand drawn hearts scattered on it; it didn't take a genius to figure out this was a love letter.
