Jisung, what happened to Felix?." Hyunjin questioned, a worried expression crossing his face.
Jisung sighed, clearly exhausted from the drama,"It's Jeongin. "
"Felix hyung is dramatic." Jeongin stuck out his lower lip.
"Felix is jealous. He thinks you're dating that lady seated by the window." Jisung explained
"I'm not dating Yeji."
"I tried to explain that to him, but he wouldn't listen to me." Jisung said, letting out a frustrated sigh.
"Does that mean he likes me too?."
"Well,I think he does like you back." Jisung gave him an approving nod.
"You both are weird with your love story." Jeongin sighed
"What do I do now?." He asked with a hint of uncertainty.
"Yes,and I think it's high time you tell him how you feel about him." Jisung encouraged him softly
"Yah,to avoid any more misunderstanding between you both." Jeongin added
_______
At the baseball pitch
"I think mong-mong and the captain are dating. These days, they are a little bit too close to each other."
"Yah, the captain is head over heels for him."
"He keeps playing hard to get."
"The captain doesn't even care if I come to practice or not."
Seungmin's face turned crimson as he shot his gossiping teammates an irritated glare before rising to his feet to confront them
Chan's hand shot forward,grabbing his wrist before he could leave,"Min dont."
"Don't you dare call me mong-mong again." Seungmin struggled,"There's nothing going on between us."
"Tch,liar."
"Did you just call me a liar?!"
Chan shook his head,"Calm down."
"You can't deceive us. The stares,accidental touches, and the pet name."
"Yah-you never argue if he calls you mong-mong. "
"I told you not to calm me that." He flared
"Prove to us that you both aren't dating." A teammate challenged
"I don't have to prove anything to any of you low-level minded excuses for teammates."
"Seungmin... "
"Let me speak, Chan." He interrupted
"Alright,everyone break is over."
After seconds of grumbling , everyone stepped back unto the baseball pitch
"Ahem,back to practice, Min." Chan stated
"Let go of me first." Seungmin scoffed and pulled out of Chan's grasp
"You're cute." Chan smiled
"Oh, shut up." Seungmin sneered still flustered
______
Hyunjin got home, but Felix wasn't at home
Maybe he'd gone out to clear his head
"I'm home." Seungmin called from the door
"Felix isn't home." Hyunjin informed
"Oh?. So no dinner yet?."
"I guess so."
"Let's order takeout till he gets home then." Seungmin suggested, already pulling out his cellphone
At a dimly lit bar
Felix sat across Taehyung, blabbing about how he felt hurt and so on
"You sure you can take more?." Taehyung asked worriedly
Felix's phone buzzed with an incoming message, but he ignored it
"Yes,I can handle it. Bring more."
"I'm worried."
"Worried?. Tae,I'm fine." Felix clarified before bursting into another round of tears.
"Shhh,it's gonna be fine."
Hyunjin sat on the couch
He picked up his phone every now and then
It was a few minutes after eleven, and Felix wasn't back yet
Where could he have gone to?
He'd spoken with Jisung earlier
Felix wasn't picking anyone's call either
Even Seungmin, after many attempts, had retired and gone to bed
He was worried,everyone was
After a few minutes, a car pulled up in the curb
Hyunjin abruptly got up and walked over to the door
He stepped out, and on seeing Taehyung, his mood changed completely
Taehyung helped a drunken Felix out of the car
"Easy there."
Felix stagger back and forth
"I'm fine,I can help myself."
Before anyone could predict, Felix grabbed a fistful of the Taehyung shirt and kissed him without hesitation.
Taehyung went rigid, completely caught off guard.
But Felix wasn't looking at Taehyung's stunned expression.
He was too far gone to notice the difference.
What Felix didn't see was Hyunjin standing only a few feet away.
Hyunjin watched the entire thing unfold the way Felix grabbed Taehyung, the way he leaned in, the way their lips met. His whole body locked up, his grip on his drink loosening. He couldn't look away, even though every second of it made his chest ache.
