Chapter 4: [January 2X20] Felix's room

No TW

Short chapter, since it's a bonus! It happens shortly after Felix's arrival in the pack.
A little scene I imagined when I designed Felix's old room (which is now Jisung/Jeongin's).

Felix was looking out the window, sitting in the back of the Jeep. He watched the streets as Hyunjin, leaning against him, told him stories of every place they saw.

Chan was driving, focusing on the road, while Minho listed what they might need.

"Felix, do you have any idea how you want to paint the walls of your room?

"Oh hm... we can leave them like that. I don't mind."

Minho turned to him, glaring at him.

"You know we don't mind painting the room, do we?

"Yes, Lixie, don't worry! It's super fun to paint a room, you'll see."

The young omega hesitated a little before saying that he liked white and pink. Minho smiled at him before focusing on his list again.

"We'll sand and repaint the bed too. It was my old but it's still in good condition. I didn't use it a long time since I bought a double bed as soon as I had the opportunity. What about the gray wardrobe?

"It's very good." Felix reassured Minho.

The older omega took a look at him, before turning away, presumably judging that Felix wasn't just saying that to save them extra expenses.

First, they stopped at the mall. Hyunjin enjoyed hanging out with Felix in many clothing stores to help him choose clothes. The young man felt a little overwhelmed by all the clothing choices available. He turned to Chan and Minho, who looked at him like proud parents that their child was taking his first steps. They reassured him, telling him that they had all the morning and that he could try as many things as he wanted. So he did it.

When Felix and Hyunjin decided they had bought enough clothes, they all set out to find a place to eat.

They then went to buy paint for the bedroom and the bed, and then headed to the largest store Felix had ever seen: the furniture store.

"Do we really need to buy more furniture? I mean... the bed and wardrobe are enough for me.

"You need some decoration, Lixie! The room will be very sad if it's empty like that."

"Okay, it doesn't hurt to take a look."

They took a long time to go around the store, observing each proposal. Minho had convinced him to take a nice pink chest, because "It will go very well with the walls and it will make more storage.", while already noting the reference. Hyunjin was quick to fill the trolley with pillows and blankets, assuring him that it would always be useful. Chan had then whispered to him that Hyunjin had a slight obsession with cushions.

They had surveyed the store longer, also taking the reference of a shelf and a mirror, but nothing attracted Felix's attention. He didn't want to spend their money excessively. That would be an abuse of their kindness.

They passed through the lighting space. Felix raised his head, observing the pretty lampshades and the lights of different colors. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to the one just above him, causing him to stop. It was a ceiling lamp with several wires that hung light bulbs. The wires were hanging from the ceiling in different places, leaving the bulbs hanging nicely in different lengths. It was nice.

"Lixie, did you see something you like?"

"Oh, uh, no." Felix replied, catching up. "Just lost in my thoughts, sorry."
