Chapter Text
"Sorry guys but Felix can't meet you today, maybe next time." Chan announced apologetically, after he climbed downstairs to the rest of the boys.
"Is he okay?" Hyunjin asked, he was worried that he must have scared the younger.
"Yeah, he's fine. He just need some sleep."
Hyunjin nodded and continue to eat his lunch. Chan walked to sit beside Hyunjin. "Can you help me?"
"With what?"
"I have work to do later, just want you to take care of Felix when your last class ended, and after he awake bring him to dinner, he still not eat."
"You know hyung, you look like a worried parent right now." Hyunjin chuckled as the older glared at him. "You don't have to asked anyway." The tall boy winked.
"Don't do anything weird to him." Chan warned.
"I won't, I promise you I will treat him like a prince."

Felix abruptly woke up from his nap. He shoots up into a sitting position, heavy breathing and sweats on his forehead. He tried to calm down.
'Breathe In....out....In.....out.'
Felix breathing finally goes back to normal and his eyes adjust and focus to his room. The room is dark and quiet.
'did I sleep too long.' Felix sighed bitterly. 'the nightmare is coming back-'
"Felix? Are you awake?" A person called him from downstairs, he flinched as he don't recognize the voice.
'its n-not Chan-hyung voice sound like, w-who?' Felix thought
"Ah, you must not recognise my voice, I'm Hyunjin the one you open the door that afternoon." Hyunjin explained. "Sorry you must've scared."
'Oh, it's only chan-hyung friend.' Felix thought in relief. 'but what's he doing here?'
"Why are you here?" Felix asked, as he try to peek hyunjin from his top beds. But he didn't expect to meet his eyes, but before Felix can look away he was mesmerized with the beautiful eyes of the other guy has. Felix didn't realize he was staring at him until he see the the tall boy began to smirk.
"Like you see?" Hyunjin teased, the said boy flustered as he were caught up staring. "Kidding, chan-hyung order me to take care of you, as he has work to do right now." Felix nodded, but still looking away from the older eyes.
"B-but you don't have to, i-i can take care of myself. You can just leave me here, I'll be fine. You too must have some-" Felix blabbered out.
"Hold up there, kitten." Hyunjin cut him out, as he chuckled at the cute rambled the younger said. "I'm doing it not because I was force to, okay? Don't worry about it." He assured, but the younger seems to think the other way, he thinks he's being a burden to Hyunjin. He just don't want to being selfish. "Are you gonna stay at your bed all day?"
"I just don't want to bother you...." Felix mumbled so Hyunjin can't hear him, but Hyunjin heard what the younger said.
"You're not, it's a win-win situation anyway. I can get closer to you and you can have me taking care of you." Hyunjin explained. "Let's just go get dinner, you still not eat yet." Felix nodded defeated, as he climbed down from his top beds. The younger then walked to stand in front of Hyunjin and the tall guy didn't expect for the short boy to come closer to him.
"I-i'm sorry that I ignored you that afternoon." Felix heads hangs low while saying that. "I j-just not used-"
"It's okay, Felix. You don't have to said sorry to me."

"Err, h-hyunjin, is there something on my face?" Felix asked, as he trying to touch his face if there's something on. The older have been staring at him the entire time and that make Felix feel weird. The tall boy shakes his head. "But why you keep staring at my face?"
"Sorry, I can't help it, you're just so cute to watch." Hyunjin said straight forward, as Felix face started to get red again. They are now in the table at the side of the cafeteria with food they buy a while ago.
"I'm not." Felix pouted, as he dig in his food. Hyunjin who were watching it cooed. "Can I ask you something?" The younger asked suddenly and Hyunjin nodded. "How many is Chan-hyung friends? I mean your friends too."
"Why you ask?"
"S-so I can ready my heart to meet them." Felix confess, he keep his heads low and his hand become fidget.
"Felix, hey, look at me." Hyunjin said softly, Felix drag his head to look at him. "Don't force yourself okay? I know you're still not used with us. You can take it slow." He gave Felix a genuine smile after the comfort words. "If you felt it hard to be with them, just call me and I will be there for you."
"Thanks Hyunjin for saying that." The relief that flooded Felix's eyes paired with the way they crinckled as a light-hearted smile now grace his features caused Hyunjin hearts to flutter hard, leaving him speechless.
"Y-yeah." Hyunjin curse himself for stuttering.
Felix phone buzzed. "Who is it?" Hyunjin asked.
"Chan-hyung." Felix said as he read the message.
8:05PM | Chan/Felix
Chan: whre r u??
Lix❤️: cafeteria with Hyunjin
Lix❤️: why?
Chan: nothing :)
Lix❤️: that smiley face look sus
Chan: what, I was just giving u r smile
Lix❤️: weird, you're planning something evil
Chan: :))
Chan: see you then, Lix <3
Lix❤️: okay
'he giving me a heart, should I do it too? But don't it be weird?' Felix thought to himself while staring at his phone.
"Felix?" Hyunjin called snapping Felix out of his thoughts and looked at him. "What are you so serious about?"
"Ah, it's nothing." Felix said as he shakes his heads.
"What did chan-hyung text you?" Hyunjin asked as Felix also confused with the text Chan giving him but he can feel it's not good because the older like to teased him so it's will be something childish.
"I don't kno-" Felix startled as someone's hand closed his eyes.
"Lix~ guess, who am I?" The voice sound familiar to Felix ear.
"Chan-hyung?" Felix called unsurely, as he trying to struggled out from the hand on his eyes. After he succeeded free from it he turned his back around to looked at the culprit for the heart attacked he gave while ago.
"Suprise."
"You scared me you know." Felix pouted angrily. Chan then apologize to him for his childish action, the guy beside him chuckled softly as he feel awe with the situation. The younger then looked at him with a curiosity eyes.
"Ah, this is woojin." Chan introduce to Felix as the younger bowed to him. "And-" before Chan can open his mouth to speak, woojin cut him down first.
"Felix, right?" The younger nodded as he gave the older a smile that captured the hearts of the three boy. Hyunjin and Chan coed and woojin reply with a smile back. "I like your smile. It's beautiful." Woojin complimented and Felix flustered.
"T-thank you."
"But, what're you doing here, hyung?" Hyunjin asked after recompose from the 'adorable smile' Felix gave to woojin.
"What? I can't come here for Felix." Chan said
"Felix is your roommate, you meet him everyday." Hyunjin protested. "And you ruining my date."
"Date? Since when this is a date, jinnie." The two of them now bickering about the unfair of attention from Felix.
"And there they go again." Woojin sighed, shaking his heads at the childish fighting that accure in front of him. "Sorry, Felix, you have to witness this side of them."
"Are they really fighting tho?" Felix asked worried.
"Mhm, I guess they're, they make up eventually don't worry about it." Woojin said calmly as he didn't just watch the two of them was trying to kill each other right infront of him. "Don't focus on them, let's focus on us." Woojin turn Felix body to face him and the fights behind the younger back. "I want to know you more after hearing Channie talking about you all day, make me want to meet you even more, and I don't regret following channie here because I can see you."
"But, there's no interesting on me, I'm really a boring person as you see now." Felix said.
"Are you sure about that, bub?"
"Bub?"
"Your new nickname from me, it's suit you." Woojin smile. "You're small and cute."
"It's t-that so."
"Yeah, do you mind if I call you that? Ah, lil bub sound cute too." Felix chuckled, it's kind of funny to see the older excited with the nickname he gave to him.
"I don't mind."
"Good, from now on, only me that can address you that, lil bub." Woojin said and looked at Felix so fondly. It's warm the younger's heart seeing someone can look at him with love without saying it. Like woojin did to him now.
'but do I deserve this?' Felix thought 'no'
Felix spend his nights talking with woojin while the other two still bickering behind them. They have a very good conversation and laughter together. Felix have a great time with woojin and he really want it to last longer but it's already late so they walked back to their own room and have a rest for tomorrow.
_____________
Morning comes to start the day for all the students in the dorm, Felix yawned as he get up from his bed and walked sleepily into the bathroom. He splash his face with cold water to make him awake, then take a quick shower and wear his school uniform. He looked himself on the mirror for a brief before walked out from the bathroom.
"Chan-hyung, wake up." Felix shakes the older shoulder as he still asleep like a 'sleeping beauty' on his beds. "Chan-hyung-" Felix screamed when Chan pull him in to his arms.
"Give me 5 more minutes."
The cuddles feel nice, Chan nuzzled further into Felix's shoulder and Felix almost felt endeared -almost- but then remembered he gonna late to class.
"Chan-hyung, wake up. I need to get to the class now." He try to struggled out from the older arms. But not succeed because the older was holding him tight. He didn't want to do that but he got no choices.
"Auch!"

After Chan send Felix to the class where he will share with seungmin who doesn't know Felix will be in the class.
Felix was searching a seat and saw a boy with a serious look on his face at the middle of the room and has an empty seat beside him. He approached him even tho he felt really nervous to talked to a stranger.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but mind if I sit here?" Felix asked. The guy who still focused at his book he's reading only nodded. Felix then take a seat beside him and try not to distract the other guy.
The doors burst open and the prof walked in to the room. The prof looked strict from the face and voice his giving to the students to quiet down, it's make Felix feel intimidated of him. The guy beside him stop reading his book and pay attention to the class and he also still not knowledge Felix presence.
___________
When the class was ended, the prof called Felix out to introduce himself Infront of the class. The nervous kicked in Felix guts as he walked to the front. Everyone watching him but Felix had his eyes downcast, as he avoided not to make eye contact with anyone.
"H-hello, my name's Lee Felix, I just transferred from Australia a-and hope we can get along well." Felix bowed before the whole class.
Everyone clapped at his introduction and whispered to themselves about his face and his deep voice. But, one person among them can't take his eyes off Felix.
"Very good Felix, you may go back to your seat now." The prof said and ushered him. Felix quickly walked back to his seat.
"Fuck." The gasped sounds make Felix looked at the person beside him, who was the one from the start of the class didn't knowledge his presence but now he has. He can't believe his eyes, he can't looked away at Felix.
'so, this is Felix..'
"Are you okay? Is there something wrong?" Felix asked the guy worriedly. The boy shakes his heads and still staring at Felix.
"I'm sorry for my language, I just-" The boy stopped talking as he whispered something but Felix heard it.
"You know Hyunjin? Ah, you must be seungmin that chan-hyung talked about, right?" Felix asked enthusiastically, the said boy nodded himself.
"Yeah, so he's right." Seungmin said.
Before Felix can asked, the prof dismissed the class and everyone is packing their stuff to go to their next class. Felix and seungmin start to packed their stuff too.
"So, what's your next class?"
"Government." Felix grunted.
"You really hate gov huh, don't worry I can help you." Seungmin said as he smile to Felix confused face. "I'm in your class too." Felix eyes lit up at the said of someone will help him but
"No, I don't want to bother you with this, I can manage." Felix reject it kindly. But seungmin not convinced at all.
"Sorry, I can't take no as an answer, I will help you and that's that." seungmin being stubborn he is make Felix no choice but to accept it.
"You guys are too kind to me." Felix said as he continued to said but in quiet tone. "but I really don't deserve it." Seungmin didn't catch up the last words Felix said so he asked but Felix brushed it off.
