Felix Centric One Shots

The Bestest Thing Ever (TF)

"He was just two years old, but he filled their world with more love than they ever thought possible."

"Did you see that girl in the third row?" Changbin said, pulling off his mic as they headed backstage.

"Which one?" Jisung asked, already chugging his water bottle.

"The one holding the 'Hyunjin Daddy' sign," Changbin grinned, nudging Hyunjin with his elbow. "She said she had your baby."

Hyunjin rolled his eyes. "Please. Saesangs say that every other week. One even brought a fake birth certificate last year."

Minho let out a low whistle as he toweled off his face. "She really committed to the bit. But this one today had a whole photo album."

"She tried to hand it to staff," Seungmin added. "Security got her out quick, though."

Hyunjin just shook his head. "They'll do anything for attention."

"True," Chan said as he leaned against the wall, arms crossed. "But that one... she looked dead serious."

Hyunjin shrugged and reached for his hoodie. "Even if she was, she's not. I haven't dated anyone seriously in years."

Everyone nodded, and they all chalked it up to another overzealous fan. The conversation moved on, and with back-to-back schedules, they quickly forgot.

Until three weeks later.

"Why are we all being called to JYP's office?" Seungmin asked as they rode the elevator up.

"Did we do something wrong?" Jeongin whispered, wide-eyed.

"If it's about that microwave I broke—" Jisung started.

"It's not," Chan cut him off with a tired sigh. "No one knows. They just said all of us had to be there."

As they stepped into the sleek office, they were met not just by JYP himself, but also a man in a sharp suit... and a tiny toddler sitting in a little chair, swinging his legs and playing with the string on his hoodie.

Everyone stared.

The toddler looked up. Big, round eyes. Light brown curls. Rosy cheeks. He smiled—wide and bright—and then suddenly yelled out:

"HI!!!"

"Oh my god," Jisung mouthed.

The suited man stood. "Hello, I'm Mr. Kim. I'm a family attorney, representing the biological mother of this child—Felix."

Chan glanced toward JYP, whose jaw was tense.

"Why are we here?" he asked quietly.

Mr. Kim continued. "The boy's mother has informed us that she had a brief encounter with a member of Stray Kids over two years ago. She recently confirmed paternity and has since relinquished all parental rights. The biological father... is Hwang Hyunjin."

Silence.

The kind that makes your ears ring.

Hyunjin blinked. "What?"

Mr. Kim nodded. "DNA testing was arranged discreetly through the company. The results are conclusive. 99.99% match."

Felix giggled and pointed up at Hyunjin. "Dada!"

Hyunjin stumbled back like he'd been slapped.

Minho caught him by the arm. "Hyunjin..."

"I—what—no, this has to be some kind of mistake."

JYP spoke up finally. "It's not. We verified everything. And the mother... she doesn't want him."

"She what?" Seungmin asked, his voice sharper than usual.
