Felix entered the cafeteria, quickly scanning the crowd to see where his friend group was sitting today. It didn't take him long before he found the loud group of 7 boys.
Felix rushed over, sitting down at the table as he said, "Hey guys! Sorry I'm late!"
"Oh sorry, the gate has closed. You actually can't sit here." His friend Minho said calmly, almost sounding serious.
Minho was one of Felix's close friends, they had known each other since middle school and their personalities contrasted perfectly with each other.
"Minho don't be mean to my poor twin!" Jisung said loudly, smacking the boy's shoulder lightly.
No, Jisung and Felix weren't really twins, but their birthday's were just a day apart so they liked to joke about being twins. Jisung was Minho's best friend (and crush), so Felix has grown to know the boy pretty well.
"Where were you Felix?" Chan asked curiously.
Chan was basically like a brother to Felix, they had also known each other since middle school when Felix moved to South Korea from Australia. Chan had lived in Australia for a few years so he was very helpful in helping Felix assimilate to the Korean culture.
Felix smiled mischievously, "Oh, I was talking to Wooyoung."
"Oohhh~" Seungmin called out in a sing-song voice, trying to tease Felix.
Felix had just met Seungmin earlier that year in the math class they had together but the boys were already quite close.
"So, when are you finally going to tell Wooyoung how you feel?" Jeongin asked gently, seeming only slightly interested in the topic at hand.
Jeongin was Felix's not so little baby. During freshman year Jeongin was so small and innocent, Felix wanted to just keep him in his pocket! But now that it was their senior year, Jeongin was much taller and much more mature. He was still Felix's baby though. Well, more like the other way around now, but that wasn't important!
Felix gave a nervous chuckle, "I don't know, I'm nervous that he wont like me back."
"That's no way to think about it!" Changbin responded loudly.
Changbin was another one of Felix's friends that he had only met recently, but so far they got along quite well. Changbin was slightly intimidating at first because of all his muscles, but Felix quickly learned that Changbin was just a big teddy bear. Well, a loud teddy bear.
Changbin nudged the boy next to him as he spoke, "Hey! What do you think Hyunjin?"
Hyunjin didn't even look up at the group as he calmly said, "If you like him then you should give it a shot."
Now, Hyunjin was a bit different compared to the rest of Felix's friends. There was nothing wrong with him of course, Felix just never got particularly close with him.
He was never much of a talker, in fact he spent most of their time together just watching from the back. Hyunjin was quiet, but he wasn't shy, he simply didn't put up with anyone.
He was only really friends with Chan and Minho, which was why he decided to even stay in the group in the first place.
Hyunjin didn't bother Felix, so Felix didn't bother Hyunjin, and that was pretty much it.
Felix pondered his friends advice as the group went back to talking amongst themselves. He was hanging out with Wooyoung tonight, maybe he could tell him then?
Yes, it was settled. Tonight Felix would tell Wooyoung how he felt about him.
***
Felix sat in the little café, bouncing his leg anxiously as he waited for Wooyoung to arrive.
His anxiety levels only raised when he heard the dinging of the door, signaling the door opening, followed by a loud, "Felix!"
Felix looked up, a weak smile on his face as he motioned for Wooyoung to join him. Wooyoung jogged over to Felix, giving him a quick hug before he sat down.
"So Felix, what's new with you?" Wooyoung said cheerfully.
Felix smiled at how happy Wooyoung looked, feeling his heart skip a beat. "Uhm, not much. Actually there was something I wanted to talk to you about though...?
Wooyoung looked at Felix in confusion, "Sure, what's going on?"
Felix sighed, building up the courage to get it off his chest. "Listen Wooyoung, I've been meaning to tell you this for a while now. I really-"
Before Felix could finish what he was saying, a voice called from across the café. "Wooyoung!"
Both boy's turned to look at who called out, Felix immediately felt confused as a boy he didn't recognize came running over.
"Oh my god! San! I didn't know you were going to be here?" Wooyoung said cheerfully, turning all of his attention to the new boy and off of Felix.
Felix frowned, realizing that he was being ignored. "Uhm...?" He said softly, not wanting to sound mean.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry, I completely forgot to introduce you two!" Wooyoung said excitedly as he stood up, wrapping an arm around San's waist. "Felix, this is my boyfriend San!"
Felix could basically feel his heart drop at those words. Boyfriend. Of course Wooyoung had a boyfriend.
The guy that Felix found so unbelievably perfect and amazing. The guy that Felix had spent the last 5 months growing closer to, learning every little thing about in order to be the perfect match for him. Of course he had a boyfriend.
"Oh, it's nice to meet you." Felix said softly, fighting to hold back the tears that threatened to fall from his eyes. Felix put on a fake smile as he turned to look at Wooyoung, "Wooyoung, you didn't tell me you had a boyfriend!" He said with false enthusiasm.
"Really? Well we just started dating 2 weeks ago so I suppose I just hadn't told you yet." Wooyoung responded casually, glancing over at his boyfriend.
Felix felt like he had been stabbed in the heart. "Oh, well congrats you guys. I should probably get going though." He carefully explained.
Wooyoung raised an eyebrow, "But you just got here? Didn't you need to tell me something?"
Felix's eyes widened as he started to collect his things, "Oh that? It's nothing. I was just going to tell you that I couldn't stay after all."
Wooyoung frowned, "Oh, okay. Goodnight Felix!"
Felix gave him a small smile, quickly walking past the pair.
"It was nice meeting you Felix!" San called out. Felix didn't even bother trying to form words, he simply waved to the pair before rushing out into the cold night air.
Cold droplet's of rain fell down on Felix's face as he mindlessly walked down the sidewalk, not knowing or caring where he was going as the tears started to fall down his face.
Felix's pace slowed down as the thoughts intruded his mind. Why would someone like Wooyoung ever like him? God he was so stupid.
The tears slowly rolling down Felix's face quickly turned into full sobs as he walked, his pace fastening again as he thought of the comforting bed waiting for him at home. A pillow that could listen to his cries.
Felix ran around the corner, not bothering to look where he was going when, WHAM.
Felix felt like he hit a brick wall as he fell down onto the cold, wet cement beneath him. He didn't bother paying attention to what he ran into until, "Felix?" A voice gently said to him.
Wiping the tears and the rain away from his eyes, Felix finally looked up to see what he had run into.
Felix squinted his eyes, trying to make out the figure in front of him, "Hyunjin?"
