Night is young and we're living
Hands move, moving steady
And the time is moving slower
I can feel we're getting closer
closer, yeahStanding in the eye of the storm
My eyes start to roll
To the curl of your lips
In the center of eclipse
In total darkness I, I reach out and touch.

."Oh, so this is the girl you were crying over last night?"
"I WASNT CRYING."
"More like sniffling and hanging on to Binnie like a koala."
"Damn Aussies."
"AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!"
"Why, Jisung? Why encourage him? You know the trigger words."
I stand, smiling at the mess of friends he's made.
"Hello, Rinn. Nice to meet you. I am Woojin."
"Nice to meet you, too." We nod at each other and smile. Gosh he's adorable. They all are. But my eyes are for one, and only one. I stare at him laughing as he tells stories of our childhood to everyone, eyes beaming with joy.
"Right, Ri?"
"Huh, what?"
"She wasn't listening." Hyunjin laughs.
"That's so rude, Ri. I expected more from my best friend. I, I'm hurt." Felix fakes, grabbing his heart.
"Aren't you supposed to be nice to your elders?"
"You're older than Felix?"
"I'm older than you, too, Changbinnie."
"Wait, really? Finally, someone else to play mother." Chan lays down with a sigh. We all laugh and decide to eat.
"Lets do a tour of the shops and eat there! We can do groups, too." Jeongin suggests.
We started of with minsung heading off together, Changbin/Hyunjin/Woojin/Seungmin in a group, then Aussie line plus Jeongin. Slowly though, it ended up being me and Felix by ourselves.
In a part of town he didn't know very well.
"We're doomed. We got a blond and a foreigner with no phones."
"I didn't realize it needed to charge."
"The battery dies faster if you videotape everything you do."
"I missed you."
"I missed you, too, lilix."
"Why do you still call me that? Im taller than you."
"Coz you'll always be my little felix."
"Promise?"
"Promise.".

.I stare down at her lips. Being close to her once more is so energizing. She nervously licks her lips and slightly nibbles as she looks around for Chan's broccoli hair. I swallow hard as I gaze upon her, and dont even notice myself leaning in.
