Sorry I haven't updated!  I got snowed in today, and have plenty of time to write ~

"So, Changbin, you're from Korea, right?" asked Minho.

"Yes.  I don't know how i'll get back there, though.  You guys can't just leave the country."

"Actually, we can.  Minho and I are trainees.  I don't know about Chris and Felix, though," said Jisung.

"I'm an adult, and can go wherever I please.  I have a friend or two in Korea as well," Chris added.

"What about Felix?"  Changbin didn't know why, but he wasn't comfortable leaving the boy behind.

"I can talk my parents into letting me go," Felix answered.

"How are you going to convince your parents to let you fly to a foreign country on your own?" Chris asked him.

"I'm not," Felix stated.  "You are."

"What?  You want me to ask your parents if you can fly to Korea?"

"Yes.  They trust you, I think, and I'll be under adult supervision.  They can't possibly say no," Felix explained.

<Later>

"They said no."  Felix and Chris trudged out of the Lee's living room.

"I knew they would," Minho muttered.

"What did you ask?"

"I just asked if I could go with Chris to visit his friend.  They weren't comfortable with me flying so far overseas, and they said Chris didn't count as an adult considering he's basically a child."

"Well, they do consider me their other son.  I'm really not surprised they said no." Chris patted Felix's shoulder.

"Now what?" Minho asked.

"Go ahead," Felix mumbled.

"Wait, what?"

"Go ahead to Korea.  This isn't about me anyways.  Changbin needs to go home.  He doesn't need me holding you all back."

Everyone looked down, not knowing what to think.  They hadn't expected Felix to be so calm.

"Alright, if that's what you want.  The earliest flight is tomorrow morning.  You can stay the night with us, and come to the airport," Minho assured him.

The group got about halfway to the motel room, when Chris decided it would be smart to do an illegal u-turn while Jisung was drinking water.  Long story short: the seats were soaked, and Jisung was very upset.

They hurried up to the room to make sure nothing had happened to Changbin.  Thankfully, he was still sitting on the bed, watching the news and trying to understand the "new technology."

"How did it go, guys?" he asked.

"I can't come, but i'll keep in contact," Felix said.

"What?  Why?"

"They said no.  That's all."

"Oh." Changbin leaned back on the pillows, visibly upset.  "You're staying tonight, though, right?"

Felix nodded, and Changbin gave him a small smile. Everyone changed out of their street clothes, and into pajamas.

"My only concern is:  how are we going to fit five of us into two queen sized beds?" Chris asked.

Everyone looked around.  No one had thought about their sleeping arrangements.

"Umm... there's a couch over there.  It's small, but it could possibly work."
