Last chapter hehehe
_____________________________________

The evening sun cast long shadows across the room as Chris sat on the edge of his bed, a heavy weight settling in his chest. His flight back to Korea was scheduled for that night, a stark reminder that his month-long break was drawing to a close. His mind raced, replaying the events of the past few weeks without Felix, the love of his life.

Just then, Lucas, his face etched with remorse, entered the room and confessed. "Chris, I need to tell you something. I've been dating Mateo for a while now. That night... it was a mistake. I was scared. I thought you wouldn't accept me for who I am." Lucas spoke, his voice barely above a whisper

Chris, stunned and confused, processed the revelation. He realized the depth of his own prejudice and the harm it had caused. A wave of regret washed over him as he recalled his harsh words and actions towards Felix. He knew he had to make things right.

With a newfound urgency, he ran out of his house, the cool air whipping at his face. His footsteps echoed down the street as he raced towards Felix's apartment. He imagined Felix's brown eyes, his gentle smile, his (now blue again) soft hair and his deep, hot voice. He would apologize, explain, and beg for forgiveness.

When he finally reached Felix's apartment, he hesitated. Something felt off. The lights were dim, and muffled sounds drifted from inside. He cautiously opened the door, his heart sinking as he witnessed the scene before him.

Felix's mind raced. He had been walking home alone when a stranger had approached him, aggressive and insistent. He had tried to shoo him off, but the man was too strong and had already entered his house. Fear had paralyzed him, and he had frozen, unable to fight back. He had never felt so violated, so helpless.

The stranger had leaned in, his breath hot and invasive. Felix could smell the stale alcohol on his breath, a stark contrast to the fresh, clean scent of Chris. He had tried to pull away, but the man's grip had tightened. As the stranger's lips neared, Felix's heart had pounded. He had closed his eyes, bracing himself for the inevitable.

A wave of longing had washed over him. He had wished it was Chris. Chris, with his gentle touch and warm smile. Chris, who would never have forced himself on him, who would always have asked for consent. Chris, who would have held him close, not out of aggression, but out of love.

And that's when his gaze locked with Chris who was behind the stranger. He thought Chris would come to his rescue. However, as the figure stepped into the dim light, a wave of shock and disbelief washed over him. It was Chris, but his expression was cold and distant.

Chris saw the scene unfolding before him. His heart shattered. Betrayal, anger, and disbelief consumed him. He turned away, unable to bear the sight. Without a word, he left, his world crumbling around him. He was too late.

It has been 2 months since.

Chris had fled to Korea, and tried to bury himself in work, but the pain was too much. Every night, he would replay the scene in his mind, torturing himself with the image of Felix's betrayal. He had tried to love Felix with all his heart, and now that love had turned into ashes.

Felix too was left alone. He tried to reach out, but Chris wasn't answering his calls or texts. Days turned into weeks, and still, there was no sign of him. Desperate, Felix had turned to Lucas. Lucas had listened patiently as Felix poured out his heart. He had recounted the night of the incident, explaining how he had been attacked and how Chris had misunderstood the situation.

Lucas, with a heavy heart had confirmed Felix's worst fears. Chris had left for Korea. The news had hit Felix like a ton of bricks. He had lost the love of his life, all because of a misunderstanding.

And so, as the seasons changed, too did their hearts. The once vibrant love story had turned into a tragic tale of misunderstanding and heartbreak. The echoes of their love lingered, a haunting reminder of what could have been.

Or perhaps what could still be...
