Not Your Ordinary

New Family

A loud gasp can be heard from Jeongin and Felix at Woojin's revelation. "I'm sorry, I think we'll just go," Jeongin said grabbing Felix's wrists. "If you're worried about your friend, it's okay, he wasn't the one who killed my parents I don't hold a grudge against him, what happened in the forest was an accident," Woojin said who suddenly found the floor interesting. "We're sorry for the incident in the woods, Woojin sometimes lose all sense of humanity when he transforms, he's still working on keeping his sanity but is having a bit of difficulty, I'm usually around when he practices but I had errands to run earlier," Chan said as he weaved his way to the living room. "Dinner is ready, I made spaghetti, let's continue getting to know each other over food, yeah?" Chan offered. Felix and Jeongin nodded and followed Chan to the kitchen. Jeongin stopped on the way as he noticed Woojin no moving from his spot, he went back and said "Hyung, let's eat," as he offered his hands to which the older took with a bright smile on his face. Chan and Felix were already digging in and talking in a foreign language when Woojin and Jeongin entered the dining area. "Your brother is Aussie too?" Woojin asked Jeongin as they took a seat. "I...wasn't aware," Jeongin hesitantly said. Felix fell silent when he heard Woojin's question and said, "I was adopted after they kicked him out of their home," almost a whisper.

"I'm sorry, I... I didn't know," Woojin said apologetically. Jeongin shook his head and said, "It's okay, I got over that a long time ago, let's dig in," with that they all ate while asking questions here and there. "How did you know Felix was Australian?" Jeongin asked Woojin. "I recognized the accent, Chan used it on me whenever he's mad at me," Woojin said with an amused smile. Woojin earned a glare from Chan as he held the younger's hand and muttered an apology. "How long were you and Seungmin on the streets?" Chan asked. "Uhmmm, I was probably in the streets for about 4 or 5 months now, I'm not sure how long Seungmin...." Jeongin said but was interrupted when, "probably almost a year," Seungmin said from the kitchen's entrance. Jeongin jumped down from his seat and ran towards Seungmin and gave him a tight hug. "OMG, I'm glad you're alright, I was so worried about you," he said. "Judging from how happy you're munching your food I'm sure you do," Seungmin said with an amused chuckle. Jeongin playfully hit Seungmin on the arms and then dragged him towards the table so that he could eat too. Woojin stood up when the two reached and table and bowed down to Seungmin, "I'm sorry for what happened earlier," he said earning a confused look from Seungmin. "I was the bear who attacked you," he added. "A shapeshifter," Seungmin guessed to which Woojin nodded. "No harm was done, besides my body self-heals so there was no real threat, to begin with," Seungmin said. They started eating again when Woojin noticed Chan was sulking. "Is there something wrong baby?" Woojin asked earning the attention of the others on the table. "I healed him for nothing," Chan said with a pout. The others chuckled at his cuteness as Woojin comforted Chan.

Jeongin, Seungmin and Felix decided to say their goodbyes to Woojin and Chan after dinner but the elders asked the youngers to stay. "Why don't you just stay with us?" Chan said. "Yeah, it's better if we stick together besides, Chan seems to grow fond of you guys," Woojin added nudging Chan as he says it. "I'll adopt you guys when I get older and married to Woojin," Chan declared which earned a furious blush from the older while the others were awestruck with the confession. "We appreciate the offer but we don't want to burden you further," Seungmin said. "Who said you'll be a burden to us, besides its almost Christmas eve we want you here, we'll be a family," Woojin said. Felix was spacing out looking straight ahead without blinking, "Felix what's wrong" Chan said as he noticed Felix, everyone's attention now landed on Felix. Felix's eyes suddenly closed as his body started falling to the floor. "Oh shoot," Chan said as he ran towards Felix and catch him before his head hits the floor. Felix's body started vibrating wildly as if he was experiencing an epileptic attack, pupils twitching inside his closed eyes. Everyone panicked seeing Felix's state, they didn't know what was happening or what they should do, they were just kids. They all just hovered over Felix anticipating what will happen next. Jeongin was the most agitated amongst all of them even though he doesn't know Felix fully well he has developed a liking to the older. He was frantically shaking the others circled around Felix begging them to do something. Chan was about to try healing Felix when the latter's episode stopped and his limp body hit flat on the floor with a soft thud. A few minutes later Felix slowly regained his consciousness and slowly sat up. Jeongin immediately bent down to meet his brother's gaze, "Are you alright? What happened?" he asked. "An angel is suffering, his white wings are changing into black rotten ones, I don't know who he is but I think he's losing his life," Felix ranted. Jeongin repeatedly hit Felix's arm after his monologue, "Don't scare me like that, I thought something happened to you, I was so worried," he said as he hugged his brother. "I'm sorry, I should've given you a heads up, this always happens when I get a vision," Felix explained hugging Jeongin back. They break the hug as Felix stood up and bowed down to the others, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry for worrying everyone," he apologized. "Hey, no harm is done, don't worry too much about it," Chan clapped Felix's shoulder giving him a reassuring smile as the other clapped Felix's shoulders as well.
