Sides, a Chanlix Story

Chapter 34

"Come on, Jisung. Pick up, pick up, pick up..." Felix was currently on his fifteen minute break before lunch. He had decided that then would be a good time to talk to Jisung, since he wanted to sit with Chan while he ate. A click sounded.

"Hello?"

"Hey! It's Felix!" Felix spoke happily, he was relieved that Jisung had answered his call.

"Duh. I looked at the caller ID." Jisung laughed, his voice muffled through the phone.

"Oh, right. Listen, I have a question." Felix looked around the room he was in. He was currently in the janitors closet, and was hoping wildly that nobody else wanted in.

"About...?"

"Uh... Men?"

"Oooh..." Jisung snickered. Felix heard a quiet voice in the background. And Jisung responded in what Felix deciphered as Korean. A melodious laugh followed, and another short sentence. "Sorry, Minho hyung asked who I was talking to. What's your question?"

"Uh, so like, Chan and I had an encounter this morning, if you know what I mean..."

"Wait, what? You two had-"

"NO! Nonono! He brought me into the shower to wake me up and when I was just standing there in shock he asked if I wanted to shower together. Of course, I'd love to, but he's straight and I feel like that'd be weird. As a joke I said sure, thinking that he'd get flustered and stop, but he kept stripping and I panicked. I was trying to get out of the shower so he could shower, but I couldn't get the curtain open, so he reached over to open it. He was right next to my ear and he whispered something like, never seen a naked guy before?"

"Anyways, I panicked again and asked to get out and he said what's the magic word! What's. The. Magic. Word. Like what am I? A child? Anyways, I said please, cause I was already in trouble, and then he said GOOD BOY! What am I supposed to do with that? I'm normally the dominating one in the two relationships I've had and now this stupid blonde Aussie is ruining that! And I'm confused! Why did I like being called good boy?" Felix gasped for air having finished his rant.

"Dang bro, that's rough..."

"Really? That's all you can say? Dang bro, that's rough? I'm in a crisis and you're making fun of me!" Felix was yelling at his phone now, and if anybody walked past the janitors closet they would think he was weird or that it was haunted.

"I mean, what do you want me to say?" Jisung asked.

"I don't know..." Felix sighed. "I was just hoping for something more than that."

"Okay... What if I told you I was the same way...? Would that be helpful?" Felix heard the other boy adjusting his position on the other side of the line.

"What do you mean?"

"Before I met Minho hyung, I was the confident gay," Jisung started. "I think that's the the word. But then this gorgeous dancer came along and started flirting back and I panicked. Like, what the heck? This beautiful human being, who doesn't even seem like a human being, is taking interest in me, what is going on? Obviously I was confused. How could this fine hunk of man have an interest in me? And why could I not flirt with him how I normally flirted with everyone else?"

"As we got to know each other, I realized that we complimented each other well whether I was the confident or panicked gay, so I started relaxing into that portion of our relationship even before we started dating. And now we've been together for a couple years and we're still going strong. Sometimes I'm the confident gay who makes him flustered, and sometimes he's the confident gay who throws me into a complete state of panic. And I kind of enjoy it."

"Huh, so it's not weird to suddenly switch tracks like that?" Felix mused.

"Nope!" Jisung chirped back. "Look, I gotta go now, but I hope you figure out your boy troubles."

"Mm, thanks. I'll talk to you later?" Felix responded.

"For sure! Bye, dude."

"Bye." Felix brought his phone down to his lap and sighed deeply. He sat back against the wall, thinking to himself.

What is it that makes Chan tick? Why do I feel like he likes me? Because he's stated multiple times that hes straight and I don't want to push that boundary despite how I feel for him. We're friends first and if that's what we stay I'd honestly be okay with that. I'd rather stay friends with him than confess and get rejected and left behind. I'm just... Confused. And here I thought I was done being confused with my sexuality. He laughed bitterly and stood up, brushing the seat of his pants off.

Then he heard quick footsteps and giggling. He froze as the doorknob to the janitors closet moved. It was pushed open and none other than the Ryan entered dragging a brunette girl behind him. The girl seemed uncomfortable, but Ryan didn't seem to pay any mind. He paused and smirked as his eyes came in contact with Felix's.

"Well well well..." He sneered. "If it isn't the little gay boy. Is this where you come in your spare time? Is this where all the gays hang out?" He whispered loudly. Felix scoffed.

"And what if it was? It's public school property, you can't block it off for people. Besides, what were you about to do with Miss Gorgeous over here?" He winked at the girl who giggled and blushed.

"Eyes off." Ryan growled. "She's mine. Even so, what would you want to do with her, Felix? I thought you were gay."

Felix burst into laughter. "You believe that stupid school forum post? Come on Ryan, didn't your parents teach you better than that? You can't believe everything you see on the internet." He smirked and walked toward the door. When he was almost out, he turned around and poked his head back in.

"Oh, and by the way, I'm bi. So I swing both ways if you know what I mean." He sent the girl another conspirital wink and then shut the door behind him and walked away. A couple feet later he heard the door open and the girl rushed out after him.

"Hey." She gasped out. "My name's Makayla, thanks for distracting him for me. I don't know what he wanted, but I hate the idea of being alone in the janitors closet with him." Felix smiled.

"Of course." He returned. "He's a jerk. And I wouldn't trust him either." Makayla laughed as the two entered the cafeteria.

"Do you want to come sit with me and my friends?" Makayla asked. Felix smiled and began to respond. But he could feel someone's gaze burning through the back of his head.

He turned to see Chan staring at the two of them, a crushed Coke can in his hand. Lucas was sitting beside him, he flashed an apologetic smile at them as he tried to pry the blonde's hand off of the can. Felix snickered.

"Thanks for the offer Makayla, but I'll have to pass." He said turning back to the brunette behind him. Her eyes were wide as she followed his gaze.

"Yeah," She said quickly. "I'd do the same." Not saying anything else, she skipped off toward a table, sending a quick wave back to Felix. Who waved back and then started toward the table Chan was at.
