i never knew somebody like you, somebody

felix made his way to the coffee shop, a little bit scared.

I mean, what's going to happen now?
he didn't want the friendship between him and Chan to change, but he knew that it will never be the same.

with a sigh, he walked inside, trying to keep a smile on his face.

"hi jeongin, are you ready for the sleepover?"
felix asked the younger.

jeongin nodded.
"yeah. I have my bag in the kitchen. we're going straight from work, right?"

felix nodded.
"yeah. is han here?"

"not yet, but he should be here any minute."

"okay, I will start on the macaroons, and when he comes I will go take a look on my bookshelf."

jeongin nodded, and felix made his way to the kitchen.

the coffee shop was really busy today.
of course, it was summer break and a lot of teens were going here with their friends.

felix was now wiping the tables and helping jeongin with the serving, while han was in the kitchen.

"we should tell Chan hyung to come and help us here."
jeongin said to Felix.

"oh..yeah, go and get him."
felix said, taking jeongins place behind the counter.

jeongin was a little confused why felix didn't go to get Chan, but he just shrugged and went to get his hyung.

•~•

jeongin couldn't get his head around it.

Chan and felix were ignoring each other.
they didn't even look at each other.
it was super weird, and maybe a little awkward.

"so, uhm, hyung, are you excited for the sleepover?"
jeongin asked.

Chan looked at felix, who was now wiping a table, giving it his whole attention.
he knew that felix could hear them.

Chan looked down on the coffee machine, as he stared making a coffee for one of the customers.
"I'm not going to the sleepover."

"what?!"
jeongin asked, shocked.
"but you were excited about it!"

"something came up. I can't go."
Chan said, taking the coffee and giving it to the customer.

felix heard it, and even tho he felt a little bad that Chan wasn't going because of him, he didn't let it faze him.

he went to the counter and put the rag into a sink.
"I will go help jisung with croissants."
he said, ruffling jeongin's hair and walking past Chan like he didn't exist.

•~•

when the coffee shop wasn't packed anymore, Chan made his way back into his office.

felix was just taking care of the bookshelf, moving books that were in a wrong place. when he was done, he made his way behind the counter.

"I would KILL for a lavender lemonade right now."
felix chuckled.

jeongin smiled.
"should I make one for you?"

"nah, it's okay, I will do it myself."
felix returned the smile, turning around to make himself some fresh lemonade.

jeongin checked the time.
"wow, it's almost six."

"really? that means we're closing soon."
Felix said.

jeongin looked at him, a little confused.
"uhm...felix?"

"mhm?"

"you didn't bring Chan cake and coffee today."

Felix's expression didn't change.
"i thought that when he was here with us today that he didn't need it."

jeongin kept looking at him, convinced that something wasn't right.
