    Summary

    "I just - Sylvain. I couldn't take it if they hurt you again. I couldn't bear it."

    "They won't, baby, I won't let them. I promise. We'll be okay."

    The thing is, Felix knows Sylvain is right. He isn't the boy who took his family's abuse with a smile, nor is Felix the person who stood by and let it happen, uncertain of his place. But somehow, Felix feels as if he's eighteen again, watching Sylvain self-destruct. Slip a ring on it, make it new, keep the only person he's ever loved from going somewhere he can't follow.

    What will Felix do if it happens again? There are no cards left to play.

    .

    AU. When Sylvain's family starts reaching out in an attempt to reconnect, Felix can only assume that their idyllic life together is about to go up in flames.
