8. cafeteria

Hyunjin sighed.

"You're clearly in love with that Changbin guy."

Felix's face flushed from embarassement. "No, I'm not!"

"Yeah, whatever."

Seungmin became concerned as he saw Felix's face changing colors from red to white and back again.

"You know." He said. "You should talk to him someday."

Felix replied sadly. "No, I don't think he likes me."

Hyunjin snickered. "Then maybe you should do something about it."

Felix ignored him and continued. "Besides, I think he likes Jisung. But Jisung likes Minho."

"Well, now I kinda feel sorry for you." Hyunjin laid back.

"Thanks." Said Felix sulkily.

"We better get going, the lunch break is ending soon." Seungmin got up and picked up his tray.

"Yeah, okay." Felix got up as well. He carefully passed between the tables because he still had unfinished drink on his tray.

Unfortunately the bell rang and everyone quickly rushed to the exit.

Suddenly someone bumped into Felix and his whole tray flipped on the person standing next to him.

"..."

"..."

"..."

All the people near by stopped moving and watched them in silence.

Because the person on who the tray fell on was Changbin.

It was already known that the australian guy with freckles had a crush on Changbin.

Not only it was obvious from the very start but Changbin was also quite popular in school so Felix wasn't actually the only one who liked him.

Felix was frozen from shock, horror and embarrassement.

On the other side was standing Changbin, his usually neutral and indifferent expression turning rather ugly.

He glared at Felix and his t-shirt was now all wet and dirty.

"I-I'm so sorry." Stuttered Felix.

"Your 'sorry' won't clean up this mess." Changbin looked at him, frowning, face full of dislike.

Felix wanted to dig a grave and bury himself in the ground.

"Oh God please no. Nonononono. Now he hates me. He hates me hehatesmehehatesmehehatesme-" Felix's mind was a mess.

"StOp." Said Hyunjin.

But Felix was too panicked to think properly.

Hyunjin wasn't planning to interfere but he didn't like the way the Changbin guy looked at them.

His haughty glare reminded him of his own life. Before he became the emperor, some looked down on him the same way.

He opened his mouth and replied sternly.

"Well, I apologized so now it's not my problem. Maybe my 'sorry' won't clean it up, but there sure are many people here, who are more than willing to."

He threw an arrogant glance at the people around him and dropped his empty tray on the ground.

Then he turned on his heel and walked out of the cafeteria.

The others stood there in shock. He left the rest completely speechless.

Seungmin had his jaw dropped. He was standing near by when it happened.

He never expected Felix to speak to someone that way, what's more, to say something like that to his crush. As if someone switched his personality.

Even Changbin was kinda surprised. It was going around that this guy had a crush on him, and he caught him staring a few times too.

He never really talked to him even though they had a few classes together so he assumed he was shy. However he never expected that he would make a scene like this.

After a while a girl finally broke the silence. "Ch-Changbin oppa, I can help you wash the shirt."

"Hyung, I can give you one of my t-shirts."

"I know how to wash clothes too!"

"Me! I wanna help too!"

"I can also clean!"

More and more people joined. Changbin looked around and raised his eyebrows. Well, the guy wasn't wrong on this one.
