Winter Falls [5]

Felix sits on Jeongin's bed, fidgeting, barely able to contain his excitement. His friend had asked him not to make a big deal out of it, but for Felix, it was a big deal. There's no way he could just sit still after hearing that. 

Without thinking, Felix reaches out, his hand in the air. He opens his mouth, ready to speak, but the words disappear the moment he meets Jeongin's glare. 

"Stop it." Jeongin warns, his voice low. But even he isn't doing well at hiding his true feelings. He's been overthinking everything, reliving every moment of what happened yesterday in this very room, and it's driving him mad.

Finally, Felix can't hold it in any longer. "I can't believe you kissed  him!"

Jeongin groans, already regretting letting Felix in on what happened. "Yeah, I did, but it's not like I made the first move."

"Right, he did ask first." Felix's eyes light up with excitement, his eyes practically glowing. It's more annoying than anything to Jeongin, who pinches the bridge of his nose, sighting deeply. 

"You seemed so sad, when you came over." Jeongin desperately tries to change the subject, "did something happen?"

And suddenly that little glow in Felix's eyes disappear, he starts playing with the hem of his hoodie, while staring down at it. "It's nothing serious."

"You could still tell me."

Felix sighs, "I mean, it's not like me and Hyunjin haven't argued over stupid stuff before."

"Yeah, but I haven't seen you this affected by that stupid argument before." Jeongin sits next to him on the bed, making himself comfortable to listen.

"We're both busy, and I understand the frustration about it. I miss him, he maybe misses me, but... "

"Maybe? " Jeongin repeats, "I have never meet more lovesick person than him. I'm sure he misses you."

"Other day, I asked him to go to his room while I was studying, because he was writing on his laptop and that clicking of keyboard pissed me off so much."

Jeongin groans at how unserious this sounds, but decides to keep quiet, so Felix continues. "He said I could go to room instead, but I was like, I like it here, though, and he's like, well maybe I like it here too."

"Will this get to the point, where I understand why argument was serious?"

Felix goes quiet for a second, giving it a thought, before finishing the story. "I told him I would move out."

"Felix, what the fuck? Are you serious?" 

"I know, I know." He nervously throws his hair back, "It would have been better if he had the same reaction as you, but I don't want to move out. It's nice living with him, even though, we are rarely awake at the same time."

"And when you are, you spend it on arguing?" Jeongin raises an eyebrow, but Felix quickly changes the subject.

"Anyway, you know, they are all meeting up to go over that idea for the book you mentioned?" Felix asks, his tone shifting.

"Yes, Seungmin keeps calling. And even your boyfriend texted me about it."

"well, I'm headed home anyways, so we can go together." Felix suggests, standing up to get his coat.

Jeongin frowns, crossing his arms. "I'm not going."

Felix rolls his eyes. "Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."
