Dimitri reaches for him. He pulls Felix flush to his chest in an embrace.] I won't. I promise. [Felix feels small in his arms. Precious.] I love you, and I'm not leaving your side again.
[ It's easier to let the tears fall like this, while Dimitri can't see him cry. He can only feel his shirt dampen as Felix presses his face against his chest, breathing him in and feeling his heart beat.
His arms wrap around Dimitri tight and allows himself this moment of vulnerability. ] I won't let you leave. ... You can't. [ A breath. ] I love you... Dima.
I love you. [Dimitri's voice shakes. He feels young. He feels very much in love.] I love you, Fee. I love you so much.
[He repeats it again and again for Felix, like a manta, and wholly a promise. Dimitri will never leave him again. He won't go where Felix can't follow. Never again.]
