FELIX'S eyes fluttered open as the sunlight seeped through the room, causing him to let out a groan, pain rushing through his back.

He turned his head to the bed beside him, expecting to see his girlfriend's friendly smile while she told him good morning.

But, to his disappointment, he was met by the sight of the empty space, declaring that she had already gotten up.

He sighed and groaned again, then sat up straight.

Where was she?

He slowly got up, ignoring the pain in his body, then made his way out of the room, towards the dining hall.

As soon as he entered the room, he spotted the sight of Chan, Minho and Changbin setting plates filled with food on every part of the table.

"Good morning, Felix!" Chan greeted, followed quickly by the others.

"Good morning..." he muttered in a soft, weak voice, glancing at the plates of food.

"Here, have some eggs." Minho stated, handing him a plate that had fried eggs and bacon placed in a smiley face.

"Oh! Um..."

He grabbed the plate of food in his hand and stared at it for a moment.

"I... Well, you know-"

"Eat what you can."

That caused him to furrow his eyebrows.

"What?"

"Eat as much as you can. You don't have to finish it. And you don't have to eat it here either."

He listened to the instructions and nodded, still staring at the plate.

"Um, yes. Thank you."

And he could almost sigh in relief.

Upon hearing that, he grabbed the plate in his both hands and turned away, to go back to the bedroom.

He sat down on the bed once again, then set the plate in front of him.

Staring at the smiley face for a few minutes, thoughts began to cross his mind.

You'll get fat.

Don't eat it.

Throw it in the bin.

Nobody likes you anyway.

He sighed and closed his eyes, trying to push the thoughts away. His stomach let out a loud grumble of hunger, and he allowed a tear to stream down his face, confusion and desperation filling his insides.

Should he?

He sighed again and grabbed the fork, then pointed it at the edge of the first egg, cutting up a small piece of it.

Then, raised the fork to his mouth and shoved it down his throat.

Yes. Yes, he should.

His mouth was filled by the soft, heavenly flavor of the food, and he groaned at how good it tasted.

He needed more.

He grabbed another bite with the fork and shoved it down his throat, sighing at how much he had missed the sensation of food down his stomach.

He rested his aching back against the pillow behind him and continued to eat, the image of his lover's face staring at him with a proud smile before his eyes.

He knew she would be proud if she was there. He simply knew it.

He sighed and set the half eaten plate on the nightstand beside him, gulping the taste of the bacon away and resting his back against the soft pillow.

His stomach was full already, but he knew it was something.

. . .

Rajwan hugged his boyfriend Seungmin closer to his body as he typed away something on his laptop. Seungmin stared at what he typed on the screen with loving eyes, glancing around the bright device and his eyes fell on the clock.

It was around ten o'clock, and it was soon everyone's bedtime. Some of the members had fallen asleep already, but some couldn't. That included Rajwan, Seungmin, Felix and Chan.

Felix was already tired, but he couldn't fall asleep without his girlfriend beside him. And his girlfriend wasn't back yet.

Needless to say he was worried.

He was about to ask Rajwan if he should be worried about his lover being late, but before he could do so, his ears perked up at the sound of the front door opening.

Revealing his beautiful lover with an exhausted, slumped figure.

He frowned and stood up right away, hurrying towards her to engulf her in a tight hug.

"Where the heck were you?" Rajwan exclaimed, letting go of Seungmin's body. "We were worried sick!"

Mal frowned and let go of Felix's body, then brought up something she was holding in her fist and threw it at the table in front of her brother.

"I was across town trying to take down the posters people ripped of the campaign I was in charge of!" She exclaimed, tears running down her face.

At that, Chan stood up and hurried to his friend to pull her in a hug.

"I'm... I'm so damn sorry, Mal," he whispered, rubbing his back. She did the same and returned the hug, then glanced at her brother's baffled, sad expression as he held up the ripped posters.

"I know how hard you worked on this with Jeongin..." he finally spoke as she let go of Chan's figure.

She rolled her eyes and grabbed Felix's hand, reaching up to wipe the hot tears on her tired face.

"Whatever, Rajwan," she replied, "I'm going to bed."

She turned to her boyfriend, who was lightly messaging his aching waist, "you coming, sunshine?"

He nodded.

"Good night, everyone!" The couple chanted in the same voice, earning a few replies from the three other members.

"Good night..."
