A Game Of Love & Flames (Minsung)

Chapter 16

JISUNG

With a flushed face, embarrassed that Changbin had seen Minho and I's 'moment'. I run upstairs into my room and gather all of the outfits that would be appropriate for tonights mission. Struggling, I make my way to Felix's room.

"Lix, open the door before my arms fall off!" I shout.

I hear movement from behind the door "Felix I swear to god, if you don't hur- OH, hi Hyunjin..." I say with a puzzled expression on my face.

"Jisung." Hyunjin nods and smiles as he walks off down the stairs.

I turn to see a red-faced Felix in the doorway. "Care to explain what Mr. smooth himself was doing in your room.. alone..?" I say, wiggling my eyebrows at him.

I receive a small slap on the shoulder. "Don't start with me, Jisung. He was just stopping by to see how long we might need to get ready. "

"Of course he was" I chuckle. "NOW HELP ME, MY ARMS ARE FALLING OFF!"

"For goodness sake, Ji. Did you have to bring every single outfit? Couldn't you have just waited for me to come give you a hand?" He laughs.

"When have you ever known me to do things the easy way?"

"Ahhh. This is true. "

Both of us look at one another and break out into a fit of laughter.

"So what do you think about tonight?" I ask.

"I think we do what we do best Ji"

"Which is?" I say head tilting to the side, taking a seat on the bed.

"We go in there, do our job. Then get the hell out of there"

"So what about the guards we have to distract?"

"Well, I dont think it will take much for those creeps to be distracted in all honesty" He says with a chuckle entering the walk-in wardrobe.

"Lix, what if shit hits the fan?"

"Then we get the hell out of there. These people do this for a living Ji. We can't risk getting mixed up in all of this" He sighs.

"I know, it will go well. I'm sure of it" I turn  to face the wardrobe. "Especially if you're planning on wearing that, jesus" I gasp as he re-enters the room.

"It's too much, isn't it?!" He whines.

"NO. No, good god no. Its PERFECT" I say, jumping up and down, clapping my hands.

He sighs. "Okay, okay, now your turn! Try these" He says, grinning, handing me an outfit to try.

Felix had always been interested in fashion. Call it a... hobby. One he was extremely good at. He really gets into his element when shopping and trying on different outfits, but not forgetting to dress me up too. Like his own personal mannequin. It's good to see him enjoy something "normal" in truth. We all have our own little hobbies. This is his.

"I don't know about this Lix" I say, staring at my reflection in the mirror.

"Come in Ji, don't be shy. Show me how pretty you look!" He says excitedly.

"Okay.." I say exiting the wardrobe.

He sits there on the edge of the bed. Mouth agape. Jaw virtually on the floor.

"Felix... what is it? Is it bad? OH GOD IT LOOKS TERRIBLE DOESN'T IT?!"

"Ji.. it's- you're- you look incredible" He stutters.

"Thank you" I say sheepishly.

"NOW" He claps. "Time for hair and make up" He stands and walks over to the dresser, pointing to the chair. "Sit"

"You're loving this, aren't you?"

"Oh absolutely" He replies with a grin.

As I watched Felix work his magic on me, I became more and more nervous. I can't tell what was making me feel more anxious. The fact we had a mission with a group of strangers we had only just met, or Minho, seeing me like this. For whatever reason, there seems to be a pull between us. I know I shouldn't indulge, but he is just too tempting. He's sculpted like a literal god. Can you blame me? Plus, I've seen the way Hyunjin and Felix look at each other. Tonight will either go really well or turn into a hot mess real quick.

"Finished!" Felix says handing me a mirror to get a good look at myself.

"Felix. I am honestly speechless.. I dont even look like myself!"

"That's a good thing, though, right?!" He asks.

"Oh, absolutely!"

"Let me just finish mine, and we can go and show the others and see what they think, hmm?"

Just as Felix takes a seat at the dresser, there's a light tap at the door. I make my way over and open it just slightly.

"Oh Seungmin, Innie! Come in, come in!" I say excited to see our friends.

"You guys look amazing!" Jeongin says mouth wide open.

"The guys downstairs are gonna lose their minds!" Seungmin says, as he lets out a loud laugh.

"Stop it! They will do no such thing!" I say back swatting his arm.

"Just you wait" He says smirking.

"Okay, all done!" Felix says as he jumps up from his seat.

"Give us a twirl" Jeongin asks.

Felix and I look at eachother, we could pretend we hate this. Or we could just live in the moment and enjoy ourselves. We both twirl around, skirts puffing outwards.

"Pretty!" Jeongin says, clapping his hands in approval.

"Very nice!" Seungmin agrees.

Though we don't ever discuss it, Minho was right. We do give exactly as he described, bottom vibes. Though we give those vibes and have the feminine features.. dont be fooled.

"Come on then, let's go show the others!" Felix says excitedly.

For the love of god. Please just let this go well.
