Felix p.o.v

It's been 5 hours since Changbin first texted me saying he'd be over. Despite my several texts and calls since then, I haven't received a single answer.

"I'm sure he is fine, maybe his phone died or something?" Seungmin assured me and pat my back.

I was standing at the window of the living room staring out at the sidewalk, waiting for Changbin to show up. I wasn't confident he'd show up at this point, but even so I was hopeful. I am quiet upset about him not showing up, but I can't help but feel like something went wrong?

"I'm gonna head upstairs, will you need anything?" Seungmin asked.

I shook my head and backed away from the window, "no, I'll be okay."

"Okay then...make sure you turn off the t.v before you go to sleep," he reminded me before walking toward the stairs.

"Goodnight," I said and sat down on the couch.

"Night."

With a sigh I pulled my blanket over my legs and propped my arm on the arm of the couch. I looked to the window again to see droplets of water hitting the glass. There was a sudden flash of lightning causing me to flinch.

"That's sudden..." I mumbled. The weather forecast didn't say anything about storms?

I averted my eyes to the t.v and picked up the remote from the table. I clicked the power button, the screen turning black. Stretching out my legs and I set my head down on the arm of the couch, letting my eyes shut.

I woke up to a loud knock at the door. Furrowing my eyebrows, I checked the time on my phone.

10:12 pm. I only slept for an hour.

There was another knock, causing me to jump at the noise. I rubbed my eyes and noticed it was still raining outside. Another knock sounded through the living room and I rolled my eyes tossing the blanket off my legs.

I dragged my feet to the door and unlocked it, swinging it open.

"Changbin?" I gasped.

His hair stuck to his forehead from the rain, and he smiled sadly at me. Despite the rain I could see his fresh tears. My heart clenched at the sight.

"I'm sorry.." he said, hugging himself from the cold. The rain fell heavily on porch around him and I stood in front of him too stunned to say anything.

I grabbed his wet sleeve and pulled him into the house. He didn't say a word, he only let his arms fall to his side as I took off his wet sweater.

"Why the hell did you even bother to come, and in the rain?" I asked hanging up his sweater in the closet. Probably not the smartest idea seeing it is dripping water everywhere, but Changbin is my main concern now.

He didn't answer my question and continued to stare at the floor. The crying stopped, and now he just looked in shock. His expression seemed confused but also angry. It worried me, what on earth happened?

"Changbin?" I asked carefully, standing in front of him.

I put my hand on his shoulder and he looked up locking eyes with me. His expression was unchanging as he stared directly at me.

"Are you okay?" I asked, worry lacing my voice. I searched his face for an answer but he didn't show me anything.

His eyes flickered down at what seemed to be my lips and back up to my eyes. I furrowed my brows and watched him in confusion. The air around us was tense, and I could feel something was off. Never the less, my heart beat was starting to race.

"Binnie?"

When Changbin lifted his hand and placed it behind my neck, my eyes immediately widened. He moved my head closer, his expression still remaining the same. My breath hitched when he placed his other hand on my waist and pulled me into him. I wasn't sure how to react. Ive always wanted to be this close to Changbin, always. Now that the moment is here and his face is inches away from mine...I'm not sure what to expect.

"Changbin...seriously what has gotten into you," I whispered, careful not to make any sudden movements.

His breath was shaky and he closed his eyes, "Just shut up and let me do this."

That's when I felt his lips placed against mine. The contact was like volts of electricity surging through my body. Considering this was my first kiss..ever, I had so idea how to react. He stood there lips against mine, and I stood there unmoving and eyes wide open from shock. When he pulled away, it was only enough to lock eyes with me again. The kiss was small, almost like he was testing the waters. Just to see if I was okay with it, and holy fuck I was okay with it.

I blinked a few times and opened my mouth to speak but he beat me to it.

"I'm sorry, that was totally uncalled for and I can see you weren't ready for that at all," he said and dropped his hands to his side. He looked at his feet and let out a sigh.

I frowned and shook my head, "No. You're wrong."

His head snapped up and I said, "yeah, you took me by surprise but I've been waiting for ages for that to happen."

"You didn't kiss me back though..." he tailed off.

That's when the blush crept to my cheeks and I instantly covered my face. Changbin then gasped out of realization and let out a knowing laugh.

"Oh my god...I was your first kiss wasn't I?"

I groaned and laughed with him, "shut up..."

He grabbed my hands and pulled them away from my face, "we could always try again?"

I rose my eyebrow and shook my head, "Absolutely not. You have some explaining to do."

(A/N):

Changbin why'd you do that?
