Stealers & Thieves

Four

Chanhee met up with Changmin at the fountain in the middle of the square. Changmin glanced at the shopping bag Chanhee was carrying and opened his mouth to speak. But Chanhee wasn't letting him.

"Before you say anything. This isn't mine. I bumped into someone and dirtied his shirt so I took it with me to clean it up." 

"Clumsy as always." Changmin commented. 

Chanhee rolled his eyes and the two walked towards the main road. They were supposed to wait for Juyeon and Haknyeon to come get them but were thoroughly confused when they saw the two of them standing under a street lamp. Haknyeon grinned brightly and waved at them.

"Where's the car? I'm exhausted. I can't take another step today." Changmin complained.

Juyeon and Haknyeon glanced at each other warily. They gave their best impression of kittens to garner pity. Chanhee and Changmin weren't amused. 

"The car suddenly had an urge to break down on the way." Juyeon explained.

"Then let's take a taxi back." Chanhee said, wanting the day to be done.

"You know we can't. Anyways, we have to stop by the car workshop. They said it'll be done by now." 

"So you're saying we need to come with you." Changmin deadpanned.

Juyeon and Haknyeon grinned again. Chanhee sighed, raking his hand into his hair. 

"Chanhee, can't we go back by ourselves first? I really need to make love to my bed." Changmin whined.

"How do you even say those words?" Haknyeon frowned then shut up once Changmin sent him a glare.

Chanhee thought for a while. They were supposed to go back together after they finished their work. They always followed any kind of plans even if it was just a simple grocery trip because that's how dangerous their lives were. It doesn't help that they ticked off a few big names in the field too. 

"Let's just take the extra mile. The plan for today is already disrupted by the car breaking down." Chanhee said. 

"That's right. It'll be much safer and I promise we'll be quick." Juyeon said. 

Changmin sighed and kicked his legs in a tiny tantrum. Haknyeon hugged Changmin's arms and pulled him along to the way. Juyeon and Chanhee chuckled as they followed the two in front. 

Felix was at his desk in his dorm room. The campus was pretty much deserted except for the foreign students and other few students at the study rooms. Though Felix doubts there's much studying going on. 

Felix was going through his hit list that Minho had sent him. It was just a precaution list in case they needed to do a quick clean up. He definitely didn't expect someone to knock on his door at this hour. He got up and opened it nonetheless. 

"Hi! I'm Eric. I stay just a few rooms away from you, right there." Eric pointed out.

"Oh, hi. I'm Felix." 

The two did the good old handshake. Felix was skeptical as to why Eric had come to introduce himself. 

"Oh, though I'm just a sophomore, I'm in charge reporting the dorm issues to the school president. So, you know, if you have any problems, you can tell me and I'll pass it to the council." Eric smiled.

"Oh, thanks." Felix replied. 

He checked out the kid in front of him. He let out a smirk. 

"If that's all, I need my rest." Felix said.
