-Felix
|| With a dizzy feeling, I'm forcing myself to walk to school. Black dots dancing in my sight, feeling my weak legs give in.
Aching pain in my back.
I bit my lip. Come on, just keep walking.

„And there he is again." Chan hissed under his breath but Minho was still able to catch it. He looked in the direction where his best friend was looking at, what he saw - more like who - didn't surprise him at all. He knew Chan disliked the blonde boy named Felix. He hated him, he always had but Minho himself never understood why. Felix didn't do anything wrong in his opinion.

But Chan just rolled his eyes when he saw all of his 'so cool' friends greeting him. He hated every single thing about this boy. He was perfect, too perfect and it annoyed Chan.
So perfect to the point that it's hard to believe he's real.

He's smart, good looking, has many friends and straight A's. He lives the perfect life, anyone could only dream about.

He couldn't stand the view of Felix anymore. "Come on, let's just go inside.", he muffled. "Yeah, yeah, alright Mr. I-dislike-a-boy-I-never-talked-to.", his best friend replied. Chan throws a deadly glance at him. Maybe he should reconsider, calling this dude his best friend sometimes.

At least Chan was lucky that he didn't share much classes with Felix, only a few like English, Art and Chemistry and to his annoyance Felix was - of course - good at all of them.

This year they would get their extra classes. They can chose between creating music, dance, theater or advanced art. Though their class sometimes connect.
Their high school has quite much program and a lot different classes dedicated to creative skills. When it comes to anything like that their school is considered one of the elite, you go here if you want to do anything creative later. Whether you become a music producer, actor or designer - this is your place to go.

Chan always wanted to go here as he loved to do music so he started saving for it pretty soon since this high school was quite expensive compared to others. But it was really important to the Australian boy and he wouldn't let his dream go just because of some random blonde haired boy.
But if he knew before that someone like Felix was gonna be here, he would've at least thought about other ways to achieve his dreams twice.
.
.

Now they have Art class - the morning can't get any worse, Chan thought.
But he was wrong.
Once the teacher told them that they would be working with partners for this and the next lesson, he immediately looked at Minho who nodded right away.
But 'lucky' them, the teacher was gonna decide the pairs.

"Wooyoung and San"
"Yeji and Karina"
"Jungkook and Sunoo"
"Yeonjun and Changbin"...

Chan was just hoping he would be lucky and still get Minho as his partner, but his hope died once he heard:
"Minho and Jisung"
Jisung, one of Felix's closest friends. Minho only gave Chan an apologizing look.
...

"Did I miss anyone?" the teacher asked after some time.
Chan raised his hand but as soon as he did, he wished he hadn't. Because the only other person left was of course Felix.
The Australien boy tried to avoid his sigh by biting his tongue, his eyes rolling.
Why does it have to be him?

Anyone else would have been happy to work with Felix since he's quite popular and usually kind to everyone so why does it have to be Chan?

His thoughts were interrupted as the teacher announced the topic "You're going to be drawing each other's face, with as many details as possible. It's only a revision of face proportions so it won't go into your final grade."

Chan was already hating it.
Drawing Felix' face? Oh hell nah.

Everyone was already sitting with their partner and starting small talk, getting to know each other since these are pairs normally no one works in. Which means everyone.. expect Chan and Felix. The older boy didn't move a bit towards Felix, so the other walked over to Chan with his chair in his hands.

"Hey, it's Chan right?" Felix smiled at the other. He just nodded, he really didn't feel like talking to Felix. He neither wanted or needed to in his opinion. The blonde haired boy just sat down as he didn't get any proper answer from Chan.
Did I do something wrong or is he just in a bad mood?, Felix thought to himself.

He couldn't care less at this point, forcing a conversation isn't very nice so he just started drawing quietly. He noticed many details about Chan's face and he had to admit he was really good looking.
Chan was also drawing but he didn't feel like putting any effort in it unlike Felix, why should he, if it doesn't even count into his final grade?
He will just draw some ugly face as quick as possible and it'll be fine. ...

"Alright, times up. You can show your work progress to each other if you want, pack your stuff and leave." their Teacher said.
Finally over, this was the worst lesson Chan ever had, not only that he couldn't talk to Minho but also having to sit with Felix all the time was horrible. The younger tried a few times to talk to him but after the fourth attempt he stopped which Chan was more than glad about.

Felix was getting curious of what Chan drew, thinking he didn't want a conversation since he would want to focus on his work.
"Can I see your drawing?" He asked kindly, giving the older a beaming smile. The other one didn't care and just continued packing his stuff while letting Felix catch a glance of his paper.

The younger gulped. Was this what Chan has been doing all the time?
He looked at the poorly drawn picture. His eyes were giving Chan a questioning look.
"What?.. At least I somehow drew your ugly face, you should be happy."

Felix's smile dropped.

Chan replied sharply with a cold voice before getting up and walking over to Minho who wasn't too far away from him and giving Jisung a goodbye.

Felix froze in his tracks. It was the first time the older said something to him but.. ugly face?

So it was still not enough.

"Don't you think that was a bit harsh there man?.." Minho asked Chan as Jisung left, packing his stuff. "I'm sure he gets told enough how 'pretty' he is. No need to boost his confidence even more. I bet he's already full of himself either way." The other said.

As Minho was still busy cleaning up, Chan walked back to his and Felix's seats. He had to admit he was maybe a bit curious as well so he took a quick look at Felix's drawing of him.
He expected a lot but not this.
Not that it would be this.. beautiful.

You could clearly see that it wasn't done yet but Felix has caught so many details of him already.
Now it was his turn to gulp but he quickly shook his head and walked back to Minho who was done by now.

He probably just does it to give a good impression in front of the teacher and to get a good grade like always. Why else should he put effort in it?

Helloo:) the idea for the plot is 1-2 years old as well as the drafts for it (2-3 chapters) but I decided to post the first chapter now anyway.
If anyone ends up being interested in this story, reading it - I'll probably continue it.
