They left the cafe in silence and walked home in silence. Chan tried to not appear angry on the way back to his house but the smile on his face was deader than the hedges they were walking past. Felix felt like an idiot for suggesting the trip, but then again, how was he supposed to know that Seehul would turn up? He would attempt to lighten the mood, but anyone could see that Chan was in a great mood by the fact he was glaring holes into the concrete. 

Once they returned to the house, Chan's mood still hadn't shifted. As soon as the pair walked through the door, everyone was made aware of the sour mood Chan was in and rightfully decided to skirt around asking him any questions. Felix sat precariously on the sofa and watched as Chan paced up and down the space in front of him. Chan looked like he was about to burst out in a fit of rage, he was biting his fingers to the point where Felix could swear that he heard the bones crack and his eyes were glaring holes into the carpet.

If only Felix could tell him to stop, that carpet looks pretty expensive.

"Why can't that fucking bitch just leave you alone? It's not hard. You've never done anything to hurt him and you are trying to move away from him. Yet he keeps coming to find you and, it just doesn't make sense!"

Felix lightly chuckled, Chan looked so funny - he was red in the face and he kept trying to push his hair away but every attempt failed and that only annoyed him more. It was completely understandable that Seehul got on Chan's nerves, he was always a pain to Felix. He just didn't understand why it would cause Chan to fight him? Why would Chan try to fight Seehul?

Chan continued his pacing and Felix caught a glimpse of paper in the corner, he decided to ask Chan a burning question; however, he was too lazy to try and sign it out slowly for Chan. He tentatively tapped Chan's shoulder once he had finished writing.

Did you go out and try to fight Seehul? Is that where the bruises and cuts came from? 🤨

Chan would've laughed out loud at the little emoji Felix had drawn if it wasn't for the serious look on his face as he stared at him, waiting for him to answer. If looks could kill, Chan would be dead right now.

"Yes, I did...Why?"

As soon as Chan finished the sentence, the frantic scribbling on paper could probably have been heard through the whole house.

I was right. What fucking demon possessed you to go and fight him? Do you have a death wish? What the actual fuck, Chan?

"Listen, you don't understand Lix. He provoked me so much and I hate to think that he's still out there, waiting to hurt you when I'm not around."

Felix sat there and thought to himself, "If only I wasn't mute, because I would fucking go off on you right now Mr Bang Chan." whilst Chan tried to convince both of them that he did the right thing by fighting Seehul.

When Chan was done with his pathetic attempt at excusing himself, Felix flicked his hand towards him and walked up to a bedroom, he was too tired after all of that. As soon as Felix hit the pillows, he fell asleep. He didn't even bother to check whose room he walked into.

"Oh for fuck's sake. MINHO? Can I sleep with you tonight? Felix has fallen asleep in my bed."

When Felix awoke, all he could smell was pancakes. Sickeningly sweet, sugar-filled pancakes that were burning on the hob. Seugmin must be cooking then.

He walked down the stairs expecting to see a massive fire and commotion but was greeted by the others sitting around the table with varying numbers of pancakes, whilst Seungmin was screaming at the hob. The others seemed so unbothered by it so Felix just let himself be unfazed by the situation poor Seungmin was in.

"Good morning Felix, Hyung! There are pancakes for you on the table, I've only given you 2 because I didn't know how many you'd want. You're welcome to take more!" Jeongin politely greeted him.

Felix nodded his head to thank him and greet him, two pancakes were plenty.
