"Lix...are you claustrophobic...?"
Felix looked down but mumbled a yes.
Uh oh...this isn't good...
"Ok...it's alright. You're not alone...I'm here" Chan said softly pulling him into a hug, Felix already hugging him back as he started to cry again.
Chan sighed as he pulled his phone out, checking to see they had no reception.
"Great..." he sighed.
"C-Channie...?" Felix looked up at him with big teary eyes.
"It's gonna be ok Lixie..." he gave a small smile patting his head.
Felix gave a small nod looking down. The older went to where the buttons were, pressing the emergency button intercom.
"Hello? Is anyone there? We're stuck"
He got no response making him curse under his breath again.
"W-what do we do...?? I-I don't want to die..." Felix started to cry again.
"Hey, calm down. You're not gonna die Lix, they're gonna send help for us soon. People will notice we are gone, they'll find us" Chan cupped his cheek.
"O-ok..." he sniffled.
"Well...let's get comfortable... it may be a while..." Chan sighed as he sat on the floor against the wall, Felix followed suite doing the same. He sat next to him pulling his knees to his chest as he grabbed his iPad.
Felix tried to distract himself with finishing Chan's schedule, the older noticing as he gently had his arm around Felix's waist, stroking it to keep him calm.
After 15 min Felix was done and starting to panic again as he placed his iPad down.
"What if no one comes...?" He sniffled looking at Chan.
"Don't worry someone will, it may be a while but they will" Chan gave a small smile.
Felix nodded as he looked down.
It was quiet again for a bit until Chan spoke up.
"So...was your trip fun...?"
"Why do you care?" Felix rolled his eyes.
Chan sighed rolling his sleeves up, loosening his tie.
"Lix...listen I'm sorry about the other night...I've been trying to tell you all day..." he said quietly looking at him.
Felix gave him a small pout turning his attention to him.
"I don't get why you have to act like that...it's not like we're together or anything..." Felix said the last part feeling sadness in his heart.
"I know...I just don't like sharing what belongs to me...and right now you do..." he blushed, but also thought about what Felix said.
But...what if...we were...together...?
"Look Chan, I get that part with the whole " debt" thing. But I have a life and friends too, way before I started working for you. You can't just take that away from me" Felix scoffed.
"I know I can't...and I'm sorry for being controlling again...I know you hate it..." Chan said trying to reach for his hand.
"If you know then don't do it..." Felix pouted as he watched Chan hold his hand.
"Note to self, don't piss off Lixie" Chan tried joking, which made Felix smile a bit.
"Well...if you must know...we did have fun in the mountains...it was a nice vacation from school and work..." he blushed as he watched Chan playing with his small fingers.
"Well that's good, I'm glad you had fun" Chan smiled.
Felix gave a small giggle.
"How was your temp?"
"A total dumbass, I fired her after 2 hours" Chan sighed looking up.
"What?? She was that bad?" Felix gasped.
"Yup...and my workday felt off..."
"Off...?"
"Ya...because you weren't there..." he said softly looking at Felix.
The younger's heart skipped a beat hearing that.
"Huh...?"
"It's strange, I'm used to having you with me" Chan smiled.
Felix blushed even more.
"W-wow, I wonder what happened to the Bang Chan who liked being alone" Felix teased looking down.
"I wonder too...since our employee benefits agreement, you've made me softer. I don't know how, but you did" laughed lightly finally admitting.
"Oh...well I'm good for something I guess..." Felix joked back.
"Yup, you and that sweet ass of yours too" Chan teased.
Felix rolled his eyes.
"Not surprised you'd say that..."

The two kept waiting as it was almost an hour, by this point Felix had fallen asleep. Chan noticed as he pulled Felix to rest his head in his lap, stroking his hair.
He looked down admiring Felix's many freckles and fluffy blonde hair, smiling to himself.
You've made me into a different person...
Yet I don't know how...It had Chan thinking about how Felix changed him, made him softer and nicer without realizing it. He even noticed his life felt a bit happier starting whatever agreement he offered to Felix.
Does he think... about us being together...?
Because...I have... more than once...
