October 1st, Sunday

The autumn air had finally come. Chan felt the brisk wind against his skin as he walked down the street with Changbin and Jisung. The warm-colored leaves crinkled under their feet as they made their way to the convenience store for one of their monthly meetings. This meetup was the reason that unfortunately, he wasn't able to accompany Seungmin and the others to go buy his school uniform. Once they arrived at the store they picked out some snacks and ramen and ate by the window.

Chan decided to start the meeting by bringing up their newest "member."

"So how do you think Seungmin is doing?"

The others turned to him but didn't answer immediately.

"I'm not too sure, since we haven't talked or hanged out together much, but from what I have observed he doesn't seem too sad or anything," Changbin explained.

"Hmm," the older hummed in response.

"What about you Ji, don't you spend time with him?" Chan questioned.

"Uh yea, I think he has been adjusting quite well, and he seems to be getting along with the others, so that's good. Also, I heard that Hyunjin, Felix, and Jeongin were doing their initiation prank on him today, haha I hope it goes well," Jisung giggled.

"Ugh not that again. I hope they don't traumatize him," Chan muttered with concern crossing his face.

"Okay well at least it's good that he looks happy, but if you guys do notice anything strange please let me know. Also please don't go up to him and force him to tell you what his power is, I noticed that he is really stressed about his whole situation, and I think it would be best if we gave him some time to relax and get more comfortable with us before asking personal questions." Chan added.

The others nodded in response, understanding the kind of pressure Seungmin may be feeling.

"Anyways moving on, Changbin did you have any important visions last month or recently?" inquired Chan.

"Uh, no not really, the days have been pretty dry," the younger murmured avoiding eye contact with the blonde.

"Alright, but when you do make sure to tell us," he responded.

Changbin concurred by nodding his head and then his eyes lit up remembering something.

"Oh Chan do you know what time Felix has his shift today?"

"Um I think he's got 6:30 to 9:00, why are you asking?"

"Oh nothing really, I just wanted to ask him something," Changbin replied shakily.

Chan looked like he was going to say something back but then Changbin's phone rang.

He answered and after a few seconds his eyes widened and he cursed.

"Shit guys, I gotta go, I have to tutor Jinnie today."

He cleaned up his snacks and then ran out of the store while waving a quick goodbye to the others.

"He literally tutors Hyunjin every week at the same time, why does he always forget," Jisung said.

"I don't even know, but that boy has a lot on his mind, so I don't blame him," Chan responded.
