[The heat spread across his face doesn't fade even when Dimitri closes his eyes, especially when the smile Dimitri gives him causes Felix's heart to flutter, stomach flopping oddly at the rather genuine gesture far from the fake front Dimitri prefers to put up. It's a look that suits Dimitri more, but hell if Felix is about to admit that.
So he settles for keeping his promise, waiting for Dimitri to fall asleep.

It takes three days later for Dimitri to be released from the infirmary, but even then, it comes with the caveat of him not being allowed to strain himself. Droves of people surround Dimitri at each turn, more than eager to help out their dear prince, a fact that Felix still can't help but roll his eyes at, especially when it's accompanied by that mostly fake princely smile Dimitri likes to wear.
Between that and Felix's own classes, there isn't really any opportunity for Felix to catch Dimitri alone, just to confirm that he had not forgotten about their agreement. It almost seems that way to Felix in all honesty, so it's with some hesitation that he grabs his bedroll and knocks at Dimitri's door that evening, frowning slightly at it.]

It's me.
