No one's POV.:
Hyunjin had wanted to learn how to cook for a while now but since he barely got to go home to visit his family, he couldn't ask his mother to teach him. Next option was to maybe ask one of his members but who could he ask without getting made fun of? His first choice would be Chan but the leader wouldn't even let him into the kitchen for fear of a disaster. Well, that fear wasn't unfounded but how was the dancer going to get better if he didn't practice? Then Hyunjin remembered their brownie-boy. Felix was certainly good when it comes to baking, so cooking should be fine. Also, the younger wouldn't have a problem with letting Hyunjin be in the kitchen, he'd probably find his hyung's struggle very entertaining. After one of their dance-line practices, the older waited for Minho to leave to the dorm, so he could have a talk with the Aussie alone. "Hey Lix, you know, I wanted to learn that thing for a while and I didn't really know whom to ask", Hyunjin started, fiddling with his water bottle. The younger perked up, eyeing his hyung suspiciously: "What thing, hyung?" – "Cooking", the older admitted, "I really want to be more independent and therefore not starve when left alone. We both know Chan isn't going to help me, so I thought maybe you could teach me?" The Aussie laughed when he remembered why Hyunjin wasn't allowed in their kitchen anymore: "You mean because-" – "DON'T REMIND ME!" – "Alright, I won't but yeah sure, I can help you. Let's just wait for the next time, the others go out for a few hours and we have the dorm to ourselves."

That day came sooner than expected, bot dancers declining when asked if they wanted to join the others. Felix had already picked out a few easy recipes that Hyunjin could choose from and had made sure they'd also have the necessary ingredients. As soon as the door shut behind their friends, the older was pouncing on the Aussie like an excited puppy. Laughing, both made their way to the kitchen, where Felix laid out the tools Hyunjin would need. They picked a recipe and talked it through step by step before the older kicked his dongsaeng out, stating: "Alright, I got this now. Thanks, Lix." – "You really don't want me to stay?" – "Nope, but you need to try and give me feedback later." – "Alright, if you need help just yell", the younger sighed in defeat, worried their dorm would catch fire if he wasn't in the kitchen too. He convinced himself that Hyunjin was old enough to do things on his own or would at least get Felix as soon as trouble started, so the Aussie prepared himself to be back in the kitchen within the next two minutes. Those two minutes passed and then another two. After that, he dared to go and play videogames to pass the time. As a precaution, he only put one headphone on and could hear the occasional clanking noises, accompanied by muffled curses. It never got bad enough though for Felix to go check on Hyunjin.

Almost an hour passed and Felix was starting to get worried since he would've been done with that recipe in around twenty to thirty minutes. But soon enough, the older popped up next to him begging for the Aussie to come to the table and try. The younger caught a short glimpse at the kitchen which to his surprise seemed....spotless? "Deja vu?", he chuckled and Hyunjin flushed bright red, mumbling: "Sorry, I had to clean the crime-scene first before letting you come here." They both broke into a laugh, images of the older's last cooking attempt flashing in their minds. At least it was already cleaned up and they weren't risking a scolding from Chan, should the others come back before they got the chance to clean. "Are you not gonna eat?", the Aussie frowned when Hyunjin only sat one plate on the table in front of his dongsaeng. The older looked at the ground a bit ashamed before he admitted: "I might have gotten carried away, snacking while working, now I'm really full but relieved I at least left enough for one serving." They laughed again because Felix didn't judge, he was the same when it came to cookie dough. To say the younger wasn't a bit hesitant about his first few bites would be a lie but he bravely picked up his chopsticks and dug in. The vegetables were only slightly burned, the sauce was a bit spicy but that could also just be Felix not being Korean and lastly, the meat was still a bit rosy inside, not to badly though. Hyunjin kept watching him expectantly, waiting for either Felix' approval or his disapproval. At least he hadn't pulled a disgusted face so far but his expression didn't give anything away. "Alright, ready for the critique?", the older nodded cautiously, "So first thing, keep an eye on the veggies when you put them in the pan, second, while you very generously fried the veggies, you could have been a bit more generous with how long you fried the meat. It wasn't raw, so that's fine, but it also wasn't completely done. Otherwise, I don't really have complaints, just don't snack as much while cooking because I would have loved eating together and clean the kitchen after the meal, so it's still warm when you serve it", the younger concluded, patting his hyung's head before the older darted of to do a small victory dance in the living room. The Aussie chuckled and went to clean his plate, noticing the kitchen indeed was spotless.
