You and Jax had gotten…close-ish. He was still an egotistical asshole but you had gotten used to him now.
After one specific adventure, you two were not having it. Both were constantly fighting. But once you finally got back to the circus. It went haywire.
“Oh [HONK!] Damn it you always have to make a deal out of the smallest things!” You shouted at him.
“Oh here we go, here we [BOING!] go! I asked you one simple question and suddenly I’m controlling and obsessive?!” Jax retorted, his ears now flat.
You were started to get annoyed. “not like you cared anyways..”
“Cared?! Cared?!! I don’t care about you or anyone in this circus! It’s always ‘Jax does this’ and ‘Jax do that’ always calling my name like I care!” Jax shouted, making a mocking voice towards other people.
Jax sighed and rolled his eyes, rubbing his face as he turned away from you. “I need you…to just…stop looking. Jax is no one more. I am no one more than who I am.”
You froze. And without even thinking, you spoke.
“What if I want to know who Felix is instead..?”
Felix. That’s what Jax’ real name was before he entered the circus. No one have called him that in years. You just found out his real name was Felix because you saw Caine coding while ago.
Jax paused. His ears dropped flat. As he slowly turned to look at you, his eyes completely dialted, taking up maybe 3/4th of his eyes. Which he only did when he was scared,zoning out, putting up a mask or pissed.
