I'm okay I promise.

•••••••••

"You gotta help me Sungie I don't know what to weaaarrr." Felix whines, clinging to my arm tightly.

We're getting ready to go to the funfair, and he has been talking about tonight for an hour straight already.

This week went by fast, we've been loaded with homework and tests, so we didn't really have time to hang out with the others again. We've seen them in the halls, and made smalltalk. But we haven't really got the chance to get to knoe each other.

Chan, Seungmin and Minho smile at us whenever we walk by.

Changbin is still a bit distant and grumpy most of the time, but he's not as intimidating as in the beginning.

To Felix however, he only became more distant. Ignoring him when he asks questions, or giving short, on word long answers.

The always smiling, energetic boy acts like he doesn't care. But I can see that it hurts him.
He's still as nice and happy as always to Changbin, and honestly I don't think the boy deserves his attention. But it's Felix's choice right?

I put my phone down when I see the boy's pleading look, getting up sighing and walking to his closet. Looking through his clothes and then turning around smiling.

"You can wear everything in here,  it will all look amazing on you" I reassure him, picking up my phone again.

"Oh come ooonn you got the to help me, pleaaase??" He wraps his arms around me, putting his chin on my shoulder and looking at me desperately.

I sigh, untangling his arms from around my waist and sitting him down on the bed.

"Okay fine, well it depends. Do you want to look cute or hot?" I ask seriously.

He just looks at me confused, shifting awkwardly.

"Uhh, I don't know?? All I want is for Changbin to notice meeee." He starts wining again, pouting at the thought of the grumpy boy ignoring him.

"I want to hang out with him, go on dates and and... well that not necessarily but I mean, we could at least be friends right?!" He now stand up, ranting frantically while making big hand gestures.

I walk toward him, grabbing his wrists before he breaks something and sitting him down on the bed again.

"Calm down Lix, it'll be easy. All you have go to is seduce him." I tell him simply, shrugging.

He gives me a look of disbelief, crossing his arms and staring at me bluntly.
When I don't say anything else he says "you're kidding right? I'm about as seductive as a cabbage."

He groans, letting himself fall back on the bed and hitting his own cheeks repeatedly out of frustration.

"Aaaghhh why. Do. I. Have. To. Look. Like. This. And. Can't. I. Just. Be. Hot." He pauses in between every word to hit himself again.

I quickly rush towards him, pulling him up by his wrist and stopping him from hurting himself again.

"Okay shut the fuck up and listen to me.."
I now grab his face to force him to look me straight in the eye. He first objects but when he notices how serious I am, he gives in.

"You, Lee Felix, are one of the hottest people I've ever seen in my whole life. And if you don't kill people with your hotness than you will with you're cuteness and amazing personality."

At these words he starts blushing furiously, swatting my arms away from his face and hiding in the pillows.

"Shut upp." His words are muffled.

"No but I'm serious Lix, you're honestly one of the most amazing people I've ever met and I don't think Changbin deserves you at all."

He just looks at me and sighs. "Thank you, and I know that's what you think. But I think he's more than what he shows us. I'm sure of it." The boy sounds determined.

I smile at him, kind of admiring how he sees the best in everyone. Then deciding to help him.

"Okay, well let's make you look like the cutest person ever then shall we?" I smile at him, extending my hand and dragging him do my room. He just yelps, quickly following me.

I pick out a few clothing items, spreading them out of the bed and sorting them into stacks.

He just stands in the corner of the room, watching me unsurely and fidgeting with his hands.

After a minute or five I look up at him smiling proudly. Pushing the final outfit in his hands.

"Go put it on!! Gosh you're going to look amazing even though I say it myself." I push him towards the bathroom door, excited to see him in the clothes I picked out.

Then I let myself fall back onto the bed, humming contently while patiently waiting for him to be done.

A few minutes later he comes walking out of the bathroom cautiously, kind of nervous to show the result.

I gasp the second I look up, clapping my hands excitedly and jumping up from the bed, grinning from ear to ear.

He's wearing a pink, oversized turtle neck, showing his adorable sweater paws and making his orange hair stand out brilliantly. Cuffed blue jeans and white converse underneath it.
Small silver earrings in the form of a dream catcher piercing his ears.

He looks absolutely adorable.

"Good? I'm not sure.. it's so pink and-" he starts but gets cut off by Jeongin lunging himself at the cute boy.

"You literally look amazing what are you talking about." Jeongin touches every part of the outfit, admiring the soft material of the sweater.

Felix just sighs, pulling the sweater up to hide his face, "I don't knoww."

Then I gasp, remembering one last detail.

I walk towards him slowly, grinning. "Lix lix lix, Can I please, PLEASE, do your eyeliner??" I beg, jumping up and down in front of him.

He just looks at me doubtingly, "I'm not sure Sung, won't it be a bit too much?"

"No please I promise it will be perfect!! Changbin won't be able to resist you."

He then sighs, giving in and walking towards the bathroom, me following quickly, bouncing up and down like an excited little kid.

"Thank you thank you thank you thank you, you won't regret it I promise!!"

About ten minutes later we are ready to go, just then the doorbel rings.

I run to the door, opening to see en excited Hyunjin.

"Hey Jin, you're just in time!" Jeongin appears behind me.

We all walk out, excited, but also a bit nervous for the night to come.
