Chances (changbin fanfic)

27

The ringing of my phone made me wake up in the morning. I was still in my towel with wet pillow and blue plushie in my tight grip.

It was unknown number, but I decided to pick it up for the reason that this call was the reason for my awakening.

"Hello?" I said into the phone.

"Hi Minji," Chan said, "can I come over? We need to talk for a while."

"Sure," I said. 

"Be there in a while, bye," he said and hung up the phone. I was getting little bit nervous and uncomfortable because of he was treating me yesterday. I don't want to think about him like that.

I quickly get off of my bed, because Changbin always made it in about 12 minutes, so I had 10 minutes for changing my clothes and make my face look bearable. 

I quickly brushed my hair one more time when I heard loud knocking on the door.
I slowly opened them and I let him in, I moved into the living room and we sat on the couch in silence.

"First of all," he broke the silence between us first, "I'm sorry for yesterday, I'm really sorry I touched you like that, when I was walking back home I was saying to myself how big idiot I was. It wasn't fair but it was my weak moment. I will never think of you otherwise again. Can we forget about it please? I shouldn't do it," he said and I could see it in his eyes that he meant it.

"Sure," I smiled softly. I was relieved he did this right now. I didn't want it to be awkward between us forever.

"Are you sad, aren't you?"

"Yeah. But it's okay. It was a good decision."

"Changbin doesn't really want to talk. He's just playing games on his phone not talking to anyone. He didn't even let Hyunjinnie or Felix talk to him and he's always talking to them when he's sad like this," he said, locking his eyes on mine.

"Oh," I said quietly and I was getting lost in my thoughts when my phone rang. It was him.

"And I wanted to ask you if you want to come to have dinner with us, maybe it'll cheer him up a little bit," he said quickly before I could answer the phone.

"Hello?" I said to the phone, but I put him on a speaker without him knowing.

"We're having dinner tonight at the dorm. Do you want to join?"

Chan smiled slightly.

"I'd love to."

"Really? Okay, so, I'll pick you up at 5 alright?"

"Alright."

"Okay bab-M-Minji. See you," he said and hung up the phone right after that, not giving me space to say something else.

"Wow. I didn't know he's gonna invite you himself," he chuckled.

"Same," I chuckled with him.

"So. See you later," he said and gave me a soft hug and then left my house. Leaving me alone again.

I don't know what to expect. How he's gonna treat me. Or if he's gonna touch me. Hold my hand or just lean his head on me. Or sit next to me during dinner.

I wanted to keep my mind busy and had a lot of time till 5PM. I went to the grocery store to fill my refrigerator again, I also bought stuff for cookies I'm gonna bake for boys. I hope Felix will like them and the recipe my grandma gave me years ago. I cleaned my whole house and when I started making cookies it was already 3PM and I still have 2 hours to spare to make them look and taste perfect.

I was just taking them out of the oven when someone knocked on my door, probably Changbin.

"It's open!" I shouted loudly from the kitchen, it didn't take the person long till he was leaning against the kitchen counter, examining me from top of my head down.

"It smells delicious. It's for me?" he smirked when our eyes met. I was always admiring his acting skills. The way he's so soft when he's with me and his friends and when he can change his whole behaviour and characteristics on the stage. Changing himself to the boy you'd be afraid of. He did this again. When he was being funny, but he was truly hurt inside, atleast Chan said so.

"Yes and the boys too," I smiled when I was putting them into the paper box I bought earlier.

"Give me one," he said stepping next to me.

"No," I chuckled and hit his hand slightly. It was lot of tension between us and he felt it too, for sure.

"Later then," he smiled softly and took a box of cookies into his hands when I filled it up.

We left my house and we were walking in silence to his dorm. It was that peaceful silence we both enjoyed. No awkwardness. It was calm.

He broke the silence just few seconds before we stepped into the building.

"I'm really glad you're here."

"Me too," I smiled softly and then I stepped into the building.

And silence again.

I could already hear voices from the inside and loud laughter. It was always like that and I was getting more and more use to this. That they're stars and I'm dining with them. With my friends.

"Helllooooo!" "Hiiii" "Hi Minji we missed you" "How are you?" "What's that box?" "What did you bring us?"
Many questions where asked and I wasn't even registering who were asking them. They were just yelling one before another.

"Hi," I laughed loudly seeing the view infront of me. They were all laughing, but when I quickly glared onto Changbin he only had his little crooked smile on his lips. I saw through him, I quickly glared back to the boys.

"I don't know what you were saying but I brought you cookies, I made them myself," it took Felix just about 5 seconds to come next to me.

"We have a lot to talk about," he said smiling widely at me.

I was sitting opposite of Changbin. We were both on the head of the table. The most far away from each other as we could be, but that didn't stop of from looking at each other.

"It tastes so good," I said placing another bite of food in my mouth.

"My baby cooked so well," Jisung said and placed his hand on Minho's back, but quickly moving it away and looking down at his table. Everyone was quiet, some of the eyes moved at me.

"It's really good," I didn't know what just happened but I ignored it and complimented his skills again, not tryna make them uncomfortable.

When I took another bite, our eyes with Changbin met again. But it was longer than before. We have this connection where we just look into each other's eyes and just understand everything.

He slowly put his hands on the table, playing with his rings on his fingers, not breaking and eye contact. I didn't know what that meant, but my emotions were just playing with me inside of my chest and head.

He moved his eyes away to his friends, talking to Hyunjin for a while, then Jeongin, but my eyes couldn't move from his hands. God, I was hating myself that I let him go that easily.

He catched my stare, moving his hands under the table, smirking at me.

I shook my head and chuckled.

I took my phone from my pocket and opened the chat we have together.

stop

He answered immediately, when he saw me typing into my phone.

Changbin
Stop what?

teasing

Changbin
We're just friends, I'm not

you know we aren't

He looked at me again and slowly moved his head to indicate we're gonna talk in his room.

We slowly stood up, every pair of eyes following our every step until we completely left their stare.

He closed the door behind us and looked at me, waiting for my explanation.
