I love this ship don't you? Let's keep sailing. Thank you again for your support.

[Felix's POV]
This is all my fault. It's all my fault! I shouldn't have kissed him back.
I'm such an idiot. 
What was I thinking? Of course I shouldn't have kissed him back! Changbin had never touched me or even looked at me like that ever since the day we met. He must hate me now more than ever for god's sake! Chan expects us to meet each other everyday at the Han River but  I've been avoiding him since yesterday. Why is it so hard to talk to him? I need answers.
'Minho hyung!' I called over to the guy who was running drills.

'What's up Felix?' he greeted.

'I've decided. I need to talk to Changbin. I need to apologize,' I said determinedly, staring him straight in the eye.
Minho laughed nervously, 'Uhmm okay..'

'I feel bad,' I confessed.

'About..?'

'Everything. For being mean back then and making him angry, for kissing him back.'

Minho scratched his chin in deep thought before nodding, 'Alright then, I'm going to go see if his around.'
As soon as Minho disappeared into the locker room I rushed towards the training room to wait only to find Changbin inside.

'Changbin!' I yelled.

He stopped what he was doing and looked at me questionably.
I took a deep breath before speaking again, 'Listen, I'm sor-"
But before I could finish he interrupted, 'It's alright Felix, really it is,' His tone sounded genuine but I was still suspicious.

'No, it's definitely not alright,' I insisted. Changbin remained silent as I walked closer to him with every step I took. The longer I kept quiet the more nervous I got. 'Listen, I know you're upset because of what happened earlier today. I'm truly sorry.' I apologised.
'Why are you apologizing?' Changbin asked.

'Because...I...I....I........uhm..' I trailed off and bit my lip unsure of what to say.

'I kissed you. So why are you apologizing Felix? You didn't do anything wrong, okay?' Changbin looked up at me and smiled gently. I gulped, unable to take my eyes off the taller male. He looked so cute while wearing shorts, sweatpants and a t shirt. A small blush began forming on my cheeks as I realized exactly what I was looking at. 'So what are you planning on doing about this, by the way?' Changbin continued.

'About what?' My eyebrows furrowed as I tried to think of a plan but all I could think about was his body against mine. My mind went completely blank as I saw him raise his hands to cup my face.

'You keep looking at me like that and I won't be able to stop myself,' Changbin whispered in my ear as he started leaning towards me. My breathing quickened as my brain failed to process any coherent thoughts. I was starting to lose control of my breathing which was making things more difficult to calm myself down.

'Chan wants us to be true friends,' Changbin muttered.

'But you hate me,' My voice wavered.

'I don't hate you but......you're different,'
My eyes widened, 'Different how?'

'You're different,' Changbin whispered once again, bringing both of our faces closer together.

'How am I different?' I breathed out, my lips hovering dangerously close to his.

'I don't know, I can't explain it but there's something about you,'
Changbin closed the distance between us and pressed his lips to mine, causing me to gasp softly.

The touch of his lips sent sparks throughout my entire body and I didn't want it to stop. This feeling that  was surrounding us felt so good. My heart pounded against my chest as I held tightly onto Changbin's arms, letting out quiet moans from the back of my throat. When he pulled away I gazed into his dark brown orbs, they shimmered with some emotion I couldn't quite identify but I knew it wasn't disgust.
'Hyung,' I breathed out. Changbin smiled warmly before leaning in for another kiss which I gladly gave him. After pulling away he leaned his forehead against mine, 'I shouldn't be kissing you. I don't know why I do it Felix but I can't seem to help myself whenever I'm around you.' Changbin chuckled.
'And I can't seem to help myself whenever I'm near you,' I retorted, smirking.
'Don't tempt me,' He warned playfully. I rolled my eyes, pressing my nose against his before placing my lips against his. I wrapped my hands around the back of his neck, pulling him closer to deepen the kiss which Changbin eagerly returned. Our tongues danced together and I couldn't help but moan softly when he gripped my hips. Suddenly a loud cough caused us to pull away instantly, startled.
We looked towards the door where Minho stood with a smug grin on his face.

'Enjoying yourselves, huh?'
'Minho hyung!' We both screamed.
Minho burst out laughing and ran away.
Changbin cleared his throat awkwardly, 'Um, that was awkward,'
'Well I don't regret that one bit,' I grinned happily at him.
Changbin raised an eyebrow, 'Are you saying you wouldn't mind doing it again?'
I blushed lightly, 'Maybe,'

'Maybe?' Changbin laughed amused.
'Maybe,' I repeated.
After that we just talked casually for a while. And although it hurt me to admit it, I couldn't remember the last time I talked to anyone so comfortably with no hesitation whatsoever. It was like I didn't care anymore about anything else except the conversation. We agreed to meet everyday at the spot Chan had chosen for us.
'I have to  go now,' I announced once I finished eating.
'Okay, I'll see you later then,' Changbin smiled. I nodded and made my way to the exit. As soon as I pushed open the doors I saw Minho standing outside.
'Hey!' I exclaimed happily.
He smiled at me, 'Hi,'
'I thought you were gone,' I said confused.
'Well obviously I couldn't leave when I knew I would see you soon. Besides, I had to make sure you didn't run away, before giving me all the juicy details,' He explained.
'Oh,' I giggled.

'So where to now?' He asked.
'Do you know of anywhere we can go?' I asked shyly.
'Well there's a new place I want you to try with the best gimpap. How about we spend our time  there before going home?'
'Sounds good to me,'
The two of us strolled through the crowded streets of Seoul enjoying each others presence. I couldn't believe how good the day turned out to  be. I felt happy and light. The only thing that was bothering me now though was telling Chan. What if he did'nt approve of it? Or worse, what if he doesn't approve of me having feelings for Changbin? Oh man! What will Chan say?! What if...
''Earth to Felix!"
I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard my name being yelled from someone in front of me. I quickly apologized to Minho  who merely waved his hand dismissively.
'Thinking about a certain pair of lips?' He teased, smirking at me. I flushed in embarrassment thinking about a certain pair of lips.
'Uhh nothing,'
'Oh really? Then why did you blush? Are you getting flustered easily now? Am I affecting your emotions?'
I shoved my shoulder against his as a reply.
'I guess I am,'
'Shut up!'
'Make me,' Minho smirked.
Just when I was about to smack him I spotted the place that Minho wanted to take me to and  I immediately understood the reason behind his teasing. He was right, it seemed very nice. Maybe it even was better than the gimpap place that we'd been frequenting recently. 'This looks amazing,' I told him as we approached the entrance of the establishment.
We ordered our food and sat down in the comfiest looking chairs possible.
'So why did you want to come here specifically?' I asked curiously.
MInho let out a small smile, 'Because they allow you to bring your cat with  you, and they sell really tasty gimpap!'
I gasped, 'Wow, you're amazing! Thank you for inviting me Minho hyung!'
Minho simply laughed and ruffled my hair earning himself a small glare from me. He ignored it, 'Anyway, you should thank Changbin as well since he found out about this place for me.' Minho winked at me.
A sudden warmth spread through my whole body and a small smile grew on my face. I couldn't help but chuckle lightly, 'You're kidding right?'
'Nope! I met him after I decided to get a job here and I've never seen anyone love gimpap more than he does so it makes sense that

After I finished stuffing my face with the delicious food Minho had  bought for me, I grabbed my stuff and headed outside. We walked towards a nearby park. I loved spending time with Minho. It was like I was finally able to truly just be myself. No pressure or fear to constantly put on a mask because no matter what happens I have Minho to keep me safe and sane. He always kept me grounded and helped keep me in reality. I was grateful that he was able to become my best friend and honestly I don't think I'll ever forget how much he helped me. We went our seperate ways at the bus stop.

'I'll catch a taxi from here,' I informed Minho.
'Of course, call me anytime if you ever feel lost. Good night Felix,' He smiled widely and left the same way he came.
