Always find me ~ ChanLix

14

I don't know if anyone read my post from a few days ago about the 14 year old boy. It was quite long and wordy, but I just had a lot to say. Please read it if you didn't. I think it's really important for people to hear. Thanks.

"I'm going to look for him."

"Huh?!" The whole group exclaims in unison.

Stray Kids were sitting all together in their waiting room at the concert hall. Everyone had already fled from the building a little shocked and a little sad after the strange events.

"Chan! What the hell are you talking about?!" Hyunjin yells.

"I'm serious." Chan says. His elbows resting on his knees and his finger tips connected in a serious looking way.

"Do you think you'll be able to find him? Sydney's pretty big..." Jisung adds in.

"I don't know, but I just know that I can't leave things the way they are." Chan still has pounds of guilt on his shoulders. He wants to find Felix, not so he can relieve himself, but because he misses the him...

"You can go if you want, but I don't think it'd be smart if we all grouped together and started running around Sydney. Especially when we just had that whole fiasco. There's probably some annoyed fans out there and I especially don't want to deal with that." Changbin joined the chat.

"Then I'm going." The leader abruptly stands up with determination.

"Here, throw this on." Minho throws Chan a jacket from the side. It'd probably be weird if he walked out on the streets looking all flashy. Fans would surely recognize him.

"I personally still want to be in this group, and I need the leader to be here as well if that's going to happen."

"I second that!" Jisung raises his hand.

"I'll come back, I'm not going to die." Chan laughs. He whips the jacket on and starts leaving.

"Good luck. I hope you find him!" Jeongin says with two thumbs up.

"Thanks." Chan smiles at the younger and flips his hood up. He pivots towards the door and exits. Everyone goes quiet.

"Welp, who wants to be the new leader." Seungmin claps his hands together.

Huff... Huff... Huff

Felix was running like a mad man, not daring to look back. The terrified boy had only run out of the building a couple seconds ago, but it felt to Felix like he'd been running forever. Why has time been tormenting him recently?

Don't look back. Don't. Just keep running. Just keep running. Run. Run. Run.

His eyes were beginning to form tears. He knew why, but he would never admit to himself the reason.

He missed Chan.

Seeing him back there was like a shock to his memory. Everything from when they were together flew back and hit him in the face. Seeing Chan, even just hearing his voice, it all made Felix want to go back to when they were together.

No! Stop it. There's nothing there. No feelings for Chan. He means nothing to you, and you don't mean anything to him.

Felix thinks to himself, trying to put it all behind him. The boy then comes to a slow halt when he realizes he can't breath.

The sun was hidden and the night sky was taking over. The cool evening air setting in. It fills his lungs and chills his bones. With every open mouthed breath he lets out, a visible wisp of hot air follows.
