i really did feel great, until everything hit me at once. why it was so delayed? i have no clue. all i know is i was in changbin's living room connected to various wires with a doctor in a hazmat suit hovered over me. the whole room was covered in some plastic drape material, and it felt like i was in a bubble. and it was extremely bright for such a usually dark house. not to mention changbin was no where in sight, so i just felt so vulnerable.

i squinted my eyes looking at the doctor above me, i mean he looked pretty nice, but i still had no clue who he was or what he was doing. i tried to move, and in return the stranger gave me a disappointed look and held me back on the couch. this wasn't scary at all...cue my eye roll.

"c-can i see changbin?"

"no." his voice was muffled through the plastic covering his face, yet he still sounded so dull.

i took a deep breath and put on my best smile, making eye contact with the doctor before me. "i would like to see him now. i have no clue who you are, and i really don't want to be alone. if you would just let me move, i could make this as peaceful as possible. if not i'll scream and rip your suit off and you'll get a disease and probably die."

"you cannot go anywhere, mr. lee."

"don't call me that. and like hell i'm staying here, my parents will go insane if i'm not home by morning."

"they have been alerted of the events of last night, and they have already been paid to keep quiet about the situation. you will be returned after i can confirm you are cleared from disease."

"you can't just pay people to keep quiet. who the hell even are you? what happens if i'm not okay?"

"seeing as you're fully capable of arguing right now, you'll be fine. it is my job to protect changbin, and keeping his disease away from the world is part of that. nothing will happen to your parents, don't worry, all they have to do is keep this secret to themselves. your case is special and has never been seen before, so i'd like to keep you for further examination."

he reached down to pin my arm against the makeshift hospital bed, and proceeded to insert an iv of blue liquid into my arm. i tried to pull away, but it was no use. no matter what i did to try and fight this guy, he'd always win. and i was stuck with him by myself.

"what the hell is that?!"

"it'll test if you're truly immune to the disease or if it was a one time occurrence."

"w-what will happen if...if-"

"if you are not immune to the disease, you will suffer from extreme pain and death within the next three hours."

"you can't just kill me! stop take it out!"

i screamed and screamed, but it achieved nothing. the liquid filtered through my blood and now all i could do was wait. the doctor made his way to the outside of the plastic covered space, and went up the stairs to what i could only imagine was where changbin's room was. it finally hit me why i couldn't see him...because if this did happen to be a one time thing, i'd be dead just by his touch. who knows maybe if he interfered with my injection it could mess up results, or cause my body to go haywire. all i knew is anything i was exposed to could kill me.

"would you like to explain to me why i had to have a doctor sent to your house at two in the goddamn morning to treat a perfectly healthy boy!"

i backed the phone away from my ear, not wanting to hear my father's voice any longer. i tried so many times just the morning to convince him everything would be okay and that felix was important, but all he sees is two stupid teenagers who have crushes. it wasn't like that at all, and i wished over and over that felix would be okay because i really couldn't lose him too.

"changbin, i'm waiting."

"dad, as much as you believe i'm in the wrong i'm not. he came over to talk, through the front glass door. we had no contact until he opened the door and boom...things just happened. but he was okay! he really was for the longest time until he crashed. he will be okay!"

"don't lie to yourself. you just don't want to admit you murdered him. i cannot believe you are my son. what did i do to deserve this?"

"what did you do to deserve this? no dad, what the fuck did i do to deserve this! i can't have friends or fall in love or go on a walk around the corner! don't try to act like you have it bad here."

"you killed my wife. you are a mistake and i wish i never had to deal with you."

"then leave. i don't care anymore. leave me to die because we both know damn well you wished i was dead."

"you'll never make it on your own."

"good, i hope i don't."

i knew he was right. i couldn't live on my own, pay for a house and food and schooling. i couldn't deal with any of this alone, but i had to. i didn't need a family who didn't love me. i didn't need anyone at all. all i wanted right now was for felix to get back home to his family because they truly loved him. he was the only person that needed to be okay right now.

"changbin!"

"get off of me!"

"changbin i know you're up there!"

"i swear i will murder you right now if you don't get that needle away from me!"

without even thinking, i rushed down the stairs to see a horror movie in the making. felix had an iv stuck in his right arm with bruises blossoming around it. he was trying to push my doctor away, but couldn't fight the force of the hand with another iv ready to be injected. i knew those serums anywhere, and they were so very dangerous.

"get off of him! stop no! don't do this, you know what'll happen..."

they both turned to look at me, and the fear in felix's eyes only grew. he winced in pain as the next needle was stabbed into his arm. that was lights out.

all i could do was hope that he'd wake up in the next three hours, for i couldn't grasp the idea of him dying.
