Stray Kids Reactions

Changbin finding out you like him

I think Changbin would kind of pick up the hint that you liked him, but he didn't want to acknowledge it at first. He knew that being in a new, steadily rising group would take up most of his time, and he wouldn't want to give you hope that he could be the boyfriend you needed.

He'd talk to Chan about it a lot too because he doesn't want to reject your feelings. That was the last thing he wanted. He definitely did not want to let this chance slip by him, but he would be torn between thinking about this rationally and emotionally. He really wanted to accept you, but knew it would be difficult to maintain the relationship.

After heading Chan's advice on the situation, he'd ask to meet you somewhere, maybe he'd go to your house, or in a park, and bring you your favorite coffee or tea and sit with you.

He'd start the conversation slow and steady, trying to get rid of the nerves that were present from the both of you.

You, not knowing what was going on, decided it would be the perfect time to voice your "hidden" feelings.

"Changbin...I like you. And not just as a friend."

You blurted it out confidently, but when Changbin stared at you for a second too long in silence, your confidence slowly faded. You had been so sure that he liked you back. The way he treated you was just so special and you were wondering if maybe you caught feelings over nothing.

Changbin, however, was in shock. It wasn't that he didn't like you, it was just the fact that you had come clean, and all the things he over thought were true. You liked him. You actually liked him. He had a choice to make, but he knew you were the best thing to happen to him after debuting.

You mumbled a quick apology and got up to walk away when he grabbed your wrist. His response coming out a stutter.

"N-no. Don't go. I-I um. I like you, too. Jus-"

"Just what, Changbin? If you're trying to let me down easy, it's better I walk away and-"

You were cut off mid sentence when he got up and pulled you into his chest. One arm around waist, the other patting your hair.

"No. I do like you. But you know we barely debuted and JYP is always talking about how work needs to be the only thing in our lives. No family, friends, or dating. I know I won't always be there for you at this point. Had this happened later on, I'd be able to be the boyfriend you need, but I can't be that right now."

His voice was more confident as he started, but it sounded broken towards the end. What he said was true, but it didn't have to be entirely true. You looked up at him.

"Then we can build up to that point. We can be with each other in private, then do more after you and the boys adjust to being in the spot light.. It can be like a pre-relationship."

The comment made Changbin laugh and you felt your face heat up, thinking you said something wrong or funny.

He could tell by the way you pouted that you felt discourage by his laugh and he smiled.

"I think it's a great idea. But I really wish I had confessed first."

He pouted as he held your hand in his, and pushed his fingers passed yours, intertwining them.

After you both had finally "outed" your relationship, you two were inseparable. Always doing this and that together. Going to the karaoke rooms together to see who could get the highest scores. Going to practice with him and him giving you backstage passes to concerts.

If his day had been extra great, he'd sneak out of the dorms to go out with you because he knew if he didn't see you and tell you about his day before sleeping, he might go insane because he just needed to see your reaction. Phone calls would not suffice in this situation.

Since it's still cold in Korea, if you even shivered, his jacket would be on you in a heartbeat and would refuse to take it back because he didn't really need it. It was just to held him sneak out. He wasn't even cold. Even he was, he'd never admit it.

He'd always walk you home after. Regardless of house or apartment, he'd always walk you to the door. Very gentlemen like.

Would always stick up for you. Even from the littlest things. I'm talking like, he'd probably fight a leaf for you if it fell in your eye. He don't tolerate no shit. No one hurts his girl.
