felix woke up in absolute agony. it felt as if something was eating him from the inside out. he felt his stomach churn as acid hit the back of his throat, indicating he was going to vomit. he quickly held his mouth and shoved past the members into the bathroom. he hit his knees on the cool tile and immediately held his stomach as water contents entered the bowl. quickly, changbin came to aid him. he gently rubbed circles on his back, patting it during the times he had trouble breathing. felix felt so ill he swore he would have to eat. this pain in his stomach is just hunger pain and he can make it through, food isn't the answer. he felt the bile pool in his mouth yet nothing but discolored water hit the toilet bowl. he heaved heavily, holding his chest as he closed his eyes tightly, resting his head in changbins lap. he continued to pant, gaining the attention of the other members.

"did you eat anything?" changbin asked, hand still rubbing shapes onto his back. felix nodded slowly, swallowing harshly before heaving into his lap. "what's happening?" woojin asked, standing in the entry way of the bathroom, staring down at the two boys on the floor.

changbin shrugged before adding, "he just rushed in here. i asked him if he ate and he said said yes but his vomit was just liquid base. there was no sign of any solid at all," he apologetically smiled at the older male before turning his attention towards felix as he whined lowly. "hurts..." he mumbled, gritting his teeth as he pulled his legs up to his chest, holding himself in the fetal position as he cried. changbin sighed, running his hands through his hair.

"what can we do to help?" he offered, smiling sadly despite the crying boy in his lap. felix softly shook his head, exhaling slowly, tightly squeezing his eyes shut. "should we transfer him to the couch?" jeongin asked, glancing around the frame of the door to see the scene. woojin quickly shuffled the youngest away to allow the two to exit. changbin carried the boy bridal style, felix latching his arms around his neck as he reached down to flush the toilet. the couple trailed into the living room where he gently laid felix down onto the couch. he immediately pulled his legs to his chest, closing his eyes and leaving his jaw unhinged as he continued to heave. "where does it hurt?" changbin asked, sitting on his knees as he brushed his hair behind his ears. he gritted his teeth before speaking,

"stomach..." changbin immediately told woojin to run to the kitchen and bring back bread and ibuprofen. he continued to brush his hair back, swiping away the sweat rolling down his forehead.

"here eat this," changbin tore the bread and attempted to push it past his lips. felix held his lips tight shut, turning his head to avoid eating the bread. "why aren't you eating?" he asked, holding onto the bread in his hand. the other members staring from the opposite side of the room. felix just shook his head again, showing no sign of talking. changbin furrowed his brows, glancing back to the members and mentally asking for help.

"do you want water?" he offered, twisting the cap of the bottle, placing it against his lips. he willingly took a few swallows before placing his head back down. "okay now a bite of bread," he brought a chunk close to his lips, mouthing for him to open. he hesitantly chewed the bread slowly, attempting to hide it under the tongue so he didn't have to swallow the calories. "here's another piece," changbin said, tearing a bigger chunk off and allowing for him to grind it between his teeth. he continued to do this until the bread was gone and felix had 'ate it.'

"take some pain killers," he added. felix attempted to not show a face of panic, the bread stuffed into his cheeks and under his tongue, not in his stomach. he slowly shook his head again, trying to catch up on some rest by gently shutting his eyes. the rest of the members began to conversate with one another, thinking of what happened and what they could do to help. everyone shrugged before turning back to changbin who held the bottle up to his lips for him to slowly sip at, getting enough water in his mouth in order to swallow pills.

he hesitantly gulped, feeling relieved when the bread was still hidden inside his mouth. "should we take him to the emergency room?" minho suggested as the room grew still. nobody said anything because nobody knew what to say. they couldn't tell if it was serious or not.

"n-no i'm fine..." felix's voice trailed off, he didn't even bother opening his eyes or even moving a muscle. he was hoping they'd forget about this soon so he could spit the bread out without being tempted to swallow it. "are you sure?" changbin reassured, brushing his bangs back. he nodded quickly, "just go," he whispered. he remained still, curled into a ball as he held his knees tightly against his chest. changbin just nodded before running his fingers through his hair once more before standing up and waving everyone, including himself out of the room, leaving felix on the couch.

he opened his eyes before glancing at the door shutting as the members walked out. he made sure the dormitory was empty before standing up, clutching his stomach as he walked to the trash can and spit out the chunks of bread. changbin expected too much of him, asking him to consume such fatty calories like that. there's no way he'd ever allow himself to gain weight again.
