"ᵒʰ ᵐʸ ᵍᵒᵈ ᶜʰᵃⁿ! ᶜʰᵃⁿⁿᶦᵉ!"

Chan furrowed his brows, momentarily questioning his sanity. Did he really just hear that? He shook it off and continued stretching. For the first time in a long while, Chan was out in the gardens at half past six on a Wednesday morning, instead of spending his life at his 'secret hideout', the unused music room. (Only because Minho was too sick to come today.)

"ᶜʰᵃⁿⁿᶦᵉ ʰʸᵘⁿᵍ!"

Chan froze again. He looked to both sides, confused. There were few students chilling on the greenery, while some seniors were going through lab notes to prep for a practical. Before Chan could shrug it off once more, he heard the ᵗᶦⁿʸ voice again.

"ʰʸᵘⁿᵍ ᵒᵛᵉʳ ʰᵉʳᵉ!"

Chan snapped his attention to the voice, turning back to see someone far, far from his spot, run (more like hop with excitement while waving a hand in the air) towards him- ...Chan narrowed his eyes intensely.

"What on earth is he wearing to school?" He mumbled, trying to focus on the white cloth wrapped around the boy's head. (He still couldn't make out what it was, however.)

"Oi Felix!" Chan yelled to the boy excitedly rushing his way, "slow down, be careful!"

"ᴵ ᶠᶦⁿᵃˡˡʸ ᶠᵒᵘⁿᵈ ʸᵒᵘ! ᴵ'ᵐ ˢᵒ ʰᵃᵖᵖ-- ᵃʰ!"

Chan's heart stopped. Maybe he felt like he was overreacting, but his heart leaped into his throat. He was quick to take off, running towards the ᵖʳᵉᶜᶦᵒᵘˢ boy that tripped over some stray rocks and flopped to the ground.

"You- you okay?" Chan caught up to Felix, crouching down with a pout. He looked up at Chan with glossy eyes,

"I- I think I broke it- ow.." Felix grimaced, stroking his freshly sprained ankle. He furiously rubbed his eyes with his sweater paw to wipe the little tear drops off. Chan bent down, now able to properly examine the bunny-eared, fluffy white cap around Felix's head, firmly fastened under his chin. Locks of orange-sprayed hair touched his forehead from beneath the furry cap. Chan mentally cursed at the heart-melting sight, (he seemed to be mentally cursing a lot since meeting Felix).

"Here, let me see it." Without waiting for a response, Chan carefully placed a hand around Felix's ankle, "I think it's sprained. Let's get you to the infirmary, and then you're going to the dorm. Get it?" He ordered.

"ᴵ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ʷᵃⁿᵗ ᵗᵒ.. ᵗʰᵉʸ'ʳᵉ ᵍᵒⁿⁿᵃ ʰᵘʳᵗ ᶦᵗ ᵐᵒʳᵉ.." Felix whimpered, sucking in a shaky breath.

"Lix, baby please. Let me take you there."

Felix's head shot up at the nicknames, locking eyes with Chan. He broke into an irresistible, shy smile, "ya know what? I think I'm all good now."

"Before I never call you Lix or baby again, listen to me." Chan threatened. He smirked when Felix obeyed, whispering a small 'ʸᵉˢ ᴵ ᵘⁿᵈᵉʳˢᵗᵃⁿᵈ'.

Chan scooped the boy into his arms; it was easier than he thought (Felix's preciously delicate body being so much lighter than he had expected) but he fit perfectly into Chan's arms, warmth spreading over and across both of them (and up to Felix's cheeks which were now dusted pink). Chan's lips curled into a smirk, he had always wanted this. He had always wanted to hold his ᶠˡᵘᶠᶠʸ ᵇᵃᵇᶦᵉ roommate in his arms, at least once. Felix stuffed his face into the crook of Chan's neck in an attempt to hide his flushed face. They headed to the infirmary, all while being unaware of the enraged, vicious eyes glaring at them.
