Jisungs pov:

The next day, as I was walking into the school with Seungmin, we heard a group of students whispering together: apparently, Felix had broken up with Irene, and she had then proceeded to tell the entire school about it. Our college was small, and news spread like wildfire. Distantly in my head, I wondered why Felix had broken up with her. They had seemed so happy together. But I didn't think about it too much, as it was none of my business. I had better things to do with my time.

We had music class as our first lesson. I found it hard to stay focused on my lyrics when Minho was right next to me, but I managed. We finished writing our song within the first 20 minutes of class, then Chan and Yuqi got started on the instruments and producing. Oddly, Felix didn't start any fights this time, and kept his head down during the entire class, his hair covering half his face and his jacket hood on. Irene, however, was the complete opposite of that. Whenever anyone said anything, she would stand up and start arguing. 

While our producers were working, I started to feel bored. I already finished my work, and I had nothing to do. Minho also seemed quite bored, I noticed as I stared at him for the nth time that day. He looked up and his eyes met mine. I looked away, feeling my cheeks heating up. 

"Isn't Felix acting a bit weird today?" Minho asked me, leaning into my ear and whispering so that Felix wouldn't hear. "He didn't gang up and me with Hyunjin today when I was practicing in the dance studio before class, and he isn't fighting anyone."

"Yeah. He looks like someone beat him up." I whispered back. He was so close to my face. I felt my cheeks heating up, and my heart quickened. 

"Hey, Sungie. May I get your number?" He asked, smiling. My heart skipped a beat at the nickname. I nodded because I couldn't exactly tell him that I already got his number from Seungmin. 

"By the way, Minho, can I have Chan's number?" I asked him as I entered my number into his phone. 

"Uh... why?" He looked hesitant.

"Seungmin wants it, but he's too scared to ask Chan for it. He's a coward, I know." 

"Okay." Soon we had exchanged numbers and I got Chan's number, which I immediately sent to Seungmin.

After I was done with my classes for the day, I went back to the dorm. Seungmin still had two more classes for the day, so I had the dorm to myself for the next couple of hours. I made myself some instant noodles, and settled down on my bed to eat them. As I was eating my food, my phone rang. It was Minho. Hesitantly, I picked up the phone and put it on speaker. 

"Hi Sungie." He greeted.

"Hi." I answered. "Why'd you call?"

"I was bored. Wanna go out to the cafe near our college?" I felt my cheeks heating up. He was asking me to go out with him. THE Lee Minho was asking me out. Even if it wasn't a date, I was still thrilled. 

"Uh.. Sure."

"Perfect. See you there in 15?" 

"Okay." He hung up, and I quickly finished my noodles. Then I stood in front of my closet. I didn't know what to wear. Was I supposed to wear something formal? Should I wear a casual shirt and jeans? What if I end up going overdressed? What if I wear something too casual? Would it be weird to ask Minho what he was gonna wear? In the end I opted for a casual hoodie with Naruto on the back and black sweatpants. 

Then I left.

This chapter is more of a filler chapter because it's been nearly 20 hours since I updated this story and I couldn't think of anything to write yet. I'll most probably be writing another chapter today. I like how the story is going so far. 

But now I have a question for the 5 people who are reading this story: which is better, Changlix, Hyunlix, or Jeonglix? Or should it be a four-way relationship? Please tell me because I'm feeling conflicted. 

Also, yes, that line was Morse code. Can you decipher it?
