It must be more than I need you
More than I love you

"So you and Minho are together now?" I look at Maya and she looks at me with a small smile, but I notice a little sadness in her tone.

I let out a small sigh and looked ahead to the others. Minho fought playfully with Jeongin as the others laughed loudly.

Minho and I didn't make it a big deal that we were together truthfully one day we just walked into the school with our hands laced together. There were lots of questions from other people but our friends didn't really question it. Yes, they spared glances at each other and shared that they "Figured something was up" or so that's what Hyunjin said and they agreed.

I nod lightly "Yeah"

"I'm not asking for credit but I'm kind of the reason," She says and I chuckle and look at her, "I just gave you two a little push"

"Thank you for that," I said to her "But I am also sorry"

Maya shrugs "Things happen for the better," She says softly, "I saw you as some sort of escape and I did really like you but it will never be my place to keep you away from what truly makes you happy"

My eyes fall at her words "I liked you as well" I tell her, shrugging "But I never realized how much I actually cared for Minho until we kissed"

"You loved him and you didn't even realize it?"

I look away and back to Minho who was now being dramatic about how Changbin drank his water. A soft smile on my face.

"I always knew I loved him but I never realized how deep it was," I say, "I just avoided the feeling by constantly dating girls and keeping myself high"

She was silent for a moment before saying "It's not my place to ask but have you thought about talking to Felix?" I look at her "We graduate in a few weeks is why I ask"

"Maybe" I look down and my fingers play with the grass, "I've wanted to but I don't really know when the time will be right"

It's been a few months since everything happened and I still haven't spoken to Felix. It wasn't like I held a grudge over the situation, in all honesty, I'm over it. It just felt weird to bring it up especially now that it's been a while. Felix seemed over it as well, I heard Chan and him were getting close nowadays but every time the others tried to bring it up he shut it down with a simple "We're friends"

"They are bullying me" Minho stomps back to me and points to the others and they laugh following behind him, "First I get jumped and then my water gets robbed" He sits beside me.

"That's a lie" Seungmin argues "Minho said he could take us all and so we accepted the challenge"

"One at a time, not all at once—what do you think I am, god?"

"Don't make a challenge you can't win" Hyunjin says back.

Minho's head finds my shoulder "Let's leave them and go back to yours" He mumbles.

"Jisung's mom invited all of us over because she's ordering pizza tonight," Jeongin says, making Minho poke his tongue out at him.

To say that they all got comfortable with my family was an understatement.

"Seungmin's going for Nora," Changbin says.

"Ew, no" I grimace, "Nobody is going to date my sister" I announce and they laugh.

Graduation Night

"I love you" My mom hugs me tightly and I return it. Pulling away she looks at me and says "I'm so proud of you and I have no doubt that you will do amazing things"
