[🌟] Hyunjin..

The rain soaks you as you dial Hyunjin's number. Felix's voice trembles as he speaks. Felix: Hyunjin… can you come get me? I don't want to be here. Hyunjin: (dry, firm voice) I'm coming. Don't move.

Minutes later, the roar of his car breaks the silence. You get in, shivering, and he glances at you, his jaw clenched. Hyunjin: Speak up. What happened to Bangchan? Felix: …we fought. We yelled a lot… I feel like he can’t hear me anymore. His words break, his breath catches. Hyunjin: (gripping the steering wheel) Tch. That idiot doesn't know what he's got with you. He always makes you cry.

The sound of rain hitting the windshield. Hyunjin doesn't take his eyes off the road, but his voice vibrates with suppressed anger. Hyunjin: I'm not going to let him break you again, Lix. You're safe with me.

Felix settles into his seat, his eyes heavy, and before he knows it, he falls asleep. Hyunjin turns down the music: a thick, dark beat fills the car. His phone vibrates in Felix's hands. Hyunjin takes it without hesitation: it's Bangchan. Bangchan (message): Where are you? Can we talk? Hyunjin responds in a low, cold tone, like a contained gunshot. Hyunjin: Felix isn't for you now. I have him. And I'm not letting him go until you understand who the hell he is to you.

His fingers drum against the steering wheel, his glare in the rearview mirror. The city blurs in the rain, but inside the car lies a refuge: you asleep, and Hyunjin, the gangster who won't let anyone else hurt you.
