"good morning felix." jisung groaned as he answered the facetime call.

"BITCH GUESS WHAT!" felix yelled excitedly.

"what?" jisung sat up.

"I HAVE A DATE WITH CHANGBIN THIS WEEKEND!" felix buried his face in his pillow, screaming into the fabric.

"congratulations lix, oh my god!" jisung smiled.

"is minho not in bed with you?" felix questioned.

"he must be in the bathroom." jisung shrugged as he looked at the sleeping man across the room from him.

"so..i miss you." felix sighed. "you've never been gone this long."

"i know lix. i'm sorry. but i feel so...free. i feel alive. and i feel...happy. minho makes me happy." jisung replied softly.

"okay. i give up on telling you to come home." felix sighed. "you're happy and safe, that's all that matters to me."

"thanks lix. sorry for being so...careless." jisung had a slight frown.

"it's okay. i'm sorry for getting so worked up." felix smiled.

"i promise i won't be gone forever." jisung smiled in return.

"tell me more about minho." felix spoke softly. he just needed to see his best friend happy.

"he's super sweet and super funny. oh my god. i don't really know, it's just something about him. i feel like i'm able to genuinely be myself around him. i don't feel suppressed and i don't feel the weight of everything when i'm with him.

"he helps me forget how shitty life is. because when i'm with him...it feels like we're the only people on earth. like we're the only people alive. we don't have to hide, we're free. he never makes me feel like i'm being judged.

"i'm really glad i met him because honestly lix, i don't know how much more i could take. i felt like i was dying from the inside out the night that i met him. my parents went on a rage, and it doesn't help that i got home in the middle of one of their fights.

"but he took me away and made me feel alive. he makes me forget about everything going on outside of us. and im not saying he's just a distraction from my shitty life. because he's not. i genuinely like him as a person.

"he's a really good person. i know i trust people too easily but i can't help but get attached to him. everything comes so easily when i'm with him. i'm not forcing myself to be a different person around him. i'm able to genuinely be myself without worrying he'll get sick of me.

"i know i sound like a broken record right now but i really needed him in my life and i'm so glad i met him when i did." jisung ranted.

"i'm glad you met him." felix smiled softly.

"thanks lix." jisung exhaled.

"i'm happy as long as you are." felix responded.

lix, i think i'm falling in love with him.

"how's yuna? i know i can call her but you see her more." jisung asked.

"she's been telling your parents that she's sleeping over at her best friends house. she's doing perfectly fine." felix chuckled.

"good." jisung felt relieved. "they haven't asked her anything about me have they?"

"they haven't even noticed you're gone...to be honest." felix replied.

"i don't know why that stings so much." jisung bit the inside of his lip. "i don't want them to notice i'm gone but...i'm their kid you know?"

"i'm sorry they're so shitty, sung." felix sighed.

"it's not your fault lix." jisung shook his head.

"where's minho? he still in the bathroom?" felix asked.

"yeah..he's showering." jisung chuckled.

"without you?" felix teased.

"i was asleep headass. but i can faintly hear the shower running." jisung laughed.

"okay damn mother fucker. i didn't tell you to call names." felix playfully rolled his eyes.

"my apologies your majesty." jisung rolled his eyes in return.

"so...you're really in love with minho, huh?" felix bit back a smile.

"yeah...i am." a smile spread its way across jisungs face.

"you fell fast." felix chuckled.

"it just...happened. so naturally.." jisung sighed.

"that's how love works, sung."

"you don't think it's too soon to say i fell in love?" jisung questioned.

"no." felix shrugged. "there's no such thing as 'too soon.' love is love, that's the beautiful thing about it. if it's all genuine, there's 'right time' to love. even if you don't know much about him. love just happens. feelings and attachment form and they grow. and i really hope you guys grow as people with it."

"thanks lix." jisung smiled.

"of course sung."

"i promise i'll be home soon. i'm just enjoying feeling free. and no offense, but you bring me back to reality. i just don't think i can handle my reality right now." jisung sighed softly.

"that's okay." felix nodded. "you just...you can't run from it forever."

"i know. i could, actually." jisung raised his eyebrows as he thought about it.

"okay bitch." felix laughed.

"im just saying, hypothetically.."

"you can't run forever. i'll chase you down myself." felix shook his head.

"okay, okay. i'm gonna go now. i love you lix." jisung laughed.

"i love you too. i'll call you later." felix blew a kiss as he ended the call.

"wow." jisung whispered to himself as he laid back down, placing a hand over his heart.

minho smiled to himself under his blanket as he recalled the words jisung had said.

a/n: hello my loves! how are you? i hope you're all taking care of yourselves <3  i'm doing well and i am taking care of myself, so don't worry <3
