"Hand me a highlighter." Felix said, pushing up his glasses while pulling out another case file. Chan smiled at him happily, handing him a pink high lighter off his desk. "Thanks." The blonde said, focused heavily on the case file he had to look over before the end of today.

The older man couldn't help but admire Felix while he focused. He watched the blonde go from highlighting key points to typing information onto his computer. He pushed his glasses up on his button nose, looking up to meet Chan's lingering eyes.

"Were you just staring at me?" Felix questioned, cheeks glowing red in embarrassment.

"Nah, you're just seeing things." Chan giggled, watching Felix's cheeks grow deeper in color.

"I've got a melon baller with your name on it." Felix said, trying to hide his blush. "Stop looking at me or you're gonna lose an eye." He grinned, going back to work.

Chan was happy to finally see the blonde back at the law firm after so long. Working a full two weeks without him there was a bit odd and he missed Felix's presence at work.

The older man was happy to be bossed around again. It was their dynamic after all, one he didn't really mind in all honesty.

Chan found himself staring at the blonde once more. The way he looked while focused was so hot to him. He couldn't help but lick his lips, watching the blonde do his job. Felix was simply just working but fuck did he look good while doing it.

"I'm gonna beat the shit out of you!" Felix whisper shouted, lightly hitting the older man in the arm.

"I'd like to see you try." Chan smirked, loving how Felix grew nervous and shy at the response.

"W-why are you even staring at me anyway?" The blonde asked, aware of the answer. He just wanted to hear the older man say it.

"How could I not? You look hot." Chan shrugged, causing Felix to gasp. "D-don't say stuff like that!" He said, looking around to make sure others didn't hear.

Chan felt weird being able to say such things to Felix. They never flirted with each other before, mainly because Chan wanted to respect Felix and also the fact that he was homophobic at some point.

Though Felix never confirmed who he liked, Chan couldn't help but flirt with the blonde. He kept his feeling hidden for so long and now that they were out, they could not be contained anymore.

Felix allowed Chan to flirt with him, a habit the older man developed a week after Felix came out and things calmed down. The blonde would never admit that he loved the attention.

Felix was iffy when Chan first started throwing a few suggestive things here and there, but he grew to like it more and more, surprisingly very fast too.

Chan went back to his work, this time noticing Felix's eyes lingering onto him. He looked up from his case file, giggling when he saw Felix quickly look away.

"Who's looking at who now, hmm?" The older man joked, causing Felix to internally panic.

"S-stop taking you homo." Felix said, getting up and walking to the bathroom.

Chan just smiled, enjoying this side of Felix. It was new and he couldn't really complain. He continued his work before he heard the elevator chime, revealing Minho on the other side of the door.

"Mr. Bang." Minho said, stern look on his face.

"Yes?" Chan asked, gulping nervously. Minho looked so serious and professional, something Chan surprisingly wasn't used to. "I'm afraid I have some bad news." He said, causing Chan to swallow a hard lump in this throat. He couldn't help but think he was going to get fired. Was he getting too distracted with Felix these days?

"W-which is?" He asked, heart beating loudly in his chest.

"I'm mad at you! What's been up? I haven't spoken to you ever since the last time you came over! You never told me all that's been going on either!" His boss said, causing Chan to let out a huge sigh of relief.

"Is that what you're here for? Fuck, I thought I did something wrong and was gonna get fired." The brunette felt a sense of relief. Why did his boss have to play around with him like that?

"I'd never fire one of my best secretaries!" Minho laughed, causing the older man to laugh in response. The laughing died down when Felix came back from the bathroom, watching the two men curiously. The air grew thick and heavy, awkward almost.

"Well to answer your question..." Chan paused, looking at Felix before looking towards his boss.

"Not much has been going on." He said, watching Felix nervously bite his lip. Chan could tell Felix was afraid of somebody else knowing his sexuality.

Even if Felix wasn't around, Chan didn't think telling Minho about everything that happened was right. He wanted to tell him so badly, but he knew it wasn't his place to go around telling people Felix's business.

Their boss looked at them both before raising a brow, noticing the looks his two employees were sparing each other.

"Everything been okay?" He asked, turning his attention towards Felix. Chan knew their boss didn't mean any harm, but he also know Minho was genuinely concerned.

When he last saw Chan, he hadn't really explained what was happening even though he was obviously stressed that day.

Felix froze upon being asked. Minho rarely ever spoke to him unless it was work related. The blonde began to grow paranoid, fearful that maybe Minho knew something he didn't want him to.

"Y-yes, everything is okay." He nervously said, eyes dancing between his boss and best friend.

"I am glad. Are you feeling any better?" Their boss questioned. Chan could notice the anxiety Felix was obviously feeling. The look was painted all over his face.

"W-why would you ask that?" The blonde asked, too nervous to even think properly.

"Well you requested to work at your apartment for a while because you were feeling sick right? Are you any better?" Minho asked, genuinely concerned about Felix.

Felix thought Minho was asking this for all the wrong reasons. He swallowed down his anxiety, responding to his boss.

"Y-yes. I was feeling super sick. Thank you again for allowing that." The blonde said, forcing a smile. Minho smiled back at him before turning his attention back to Chan.

"Let's get drinks tonight?" He asked. Chan looked at Felix, noticing the jealousy that painted his features. Even after all that's happened, Felix was still the same in some aspects. He wanted Chan all to himself, that will never change.

"I'll have to see. I don't know if I'll be able to because me and Felix have to go grocery shopping after work." Chan lied. He didn't want to deal with an upset Felix. He also preferred so spend his night with the blonde instead.

"Alright, well how about tomorrow night?" Minho smiled. "Sounds like a date." The brunette smiled, ignoring the displeased look on Felix's face. Chan was definitely going to hear about this later.
