"POST CEREMONY SLEEPOVER LET'S GO!!!"

"Are you serious!?" Minho raged when the entire higher ranks group followed Felix into his room:
"And why here of all places!?"

Then one more person opened the door.

"YOU TOO!?!?!?" Minho screamed at Chan, in disbelief.

The other sighed:
"I'm not too old for a sleepover. You guys keep forgetting but I'm in my twenties. I'm young enough."

"Mhhhh. Seems pretty old to me..." commented Seungmin from his spot sprawled on Jisung's bed:
"You're half fifty after all..."

"Seungmin! Show some respect-"

"GASP!!!" Felix interrupted:
"Is Lee <<literally never follows orders without a fight>> Minho lecturing us on respect? Unbelievable."

Everyone, even Chan laughed at him:
"That's true. You should listen more."

"So I'm the only one who has never seen Minho disobey ever, huh..." Jisung mumbled under his breath, slightly uncomfortable with the amount of people around him.

"Awww" cooed Felix who had unfortunately heard him:

"Look at Jisung, sucking up to his teach- WAIT. MINHO ISN'T YOUR TEACHER ANYMORE. YOU'RE A HIGHER RANK. THIS MEANS...YOU TWO ARE EQUALS...!"

Felix crawled closer, overwhelmed by excitement and faked an interview:
"How does that feel, newly promoted member?"

Jisung trembled under the stares of all those eyes. He was so not used to all this attention.

"Uhm... weird I guess...?" he finally managed, his ears turning red.

"CUTIE!" Felix said, pinching his cheeks.

After that, the others seemed to understand that he felt uncomfortable because they left him alone.

As they all chattered, Jisung's eyes slid to Minho.

"Equals...?"

There was no way.
Just mere months earlier Minho's level had seemed unreachable to him and now he was supposed to believe they were equal??

Impossible.

That second Minho turned and their eyes met.

Jisung's stomach did a flip.

"Wh- what was that?"

But he had no time to think it over, because the other was now walking to him.
Jisung tried to swallow his fear by playing with his hands nervously.

"Congratulations" Minho said forcefully, extending a hand:
"Or whatever..."

Jisung's features softened.
He took the hand in his.

"Thank you" he answered genuinely.

His ex teacher refused to meet his eye.

"Well, don't you dare slack off from now on, ok? I'll lecture you anyway if you do."

Jisung just chuckled.

"Why does he look kind of...adorable right now?"

"OOP- Sorry to interrupt-" said Felix. sliding between them to head for the door:
"I'm gonna go get some drinks and I kinda need help with that... Ji?"

"Oh! Sure...but-" he turned to Minho.

"What? You're a higher rank now, are you not? I can leave you be for a few minutes..."

As he left with Felix, Jisung started feeling weirdly self conscious.

It felt like...
...like one of his staple rings, the ones he wore everyday had suddenly gone missing.

"Are you allright?" asked the fake blonde:
"You're all fidgety and shit"

"Ahh..."

"Fuck I've been caught"

"I'm actually not that good at socializing" he explained, slightly embarassed:
"I get super anxious and forget how to act like a normal human being"

"I see!" Felix turned back to him with a huge smile:
"Then I'll adopt you. You're my little alien from now on."

"Huh??"

But Felix just laughed:
"Come on let's hurry so we can go back to the others!"

°•○●•°

"...and then he looked at me with those eyes of him and my stomach did a little flip...? Or something...? You know what I'm saying right?"
Felix was rambling, drinks in hand as they walked back.

"Uhm no...not really..."

"Or do I...? But it can't be that, can it?"

"Like what am I supposed to doo" his friend whined:
"We've been besties for so long I can't just tell him out of nowhere now!"

"Why not?"

"Because it'll ruin our magical bond, dumbass!"

"Magical bond..." Jisung side eyed him slightly.

"Jesus, Felix..."

"YEAH! I don't want to lose Changbin so I'll never tell him-"

"Tell him what?" asked someone else out of nowhere.

Felix let out a small acute scream and hid behind Jisung:

"JEONGIN WHAT THE FUCK YOU SCARED ME!!"

But the little one kept his face serious:
"You guys should head back....

...see...

....Chan had a vision..."
