One thing Felix hasn't considered believing at this very moment while looking at his dorm ceiling , is him being in a relationship with his fellow Australian mate yet his childhood friend, Chris.

Chris wasn't like any other friend Felix would forget over night, he had spent so much time with him beginning from the period where they used to play Uno cards in his parents house's backyard back in Sydney.

Chris had seen every of his ugly sides yet the older never claimed them as ugly and that made Felix feel special that his childhood best friend never judged him based on how he was or what he liked.

That is one of so many charms that Chris has until today which Felix really adores and admires.

He shifted to his left side laying on his bed remembering the sweet memorable moments he had with Chris until now.

Felix:"it's not Chris you dumbass, he said he loves it more when I called him Chan"

A sudden warm cozy feeling climbed his heart as he felt his freckled cheeks getting hot the more he kept reminding himself of his friendship journey with his current boyfriend.

It's still crazy and unbelievable how Chan asked him out the other day and Felix finds himself agreeing to that because both know very well that what each side needs was more than just a friendship.

He remembers the day that him and Chan had to get separated and you don't know how many nights Felix cried for him, his boyfriend's family moved away to South Korea while Felix was still in middle school in Australia. Looking at it from behind, the Freckled boy just wants to laugh at his past self for crying so much despite Chan calling him like every day and sending him letters too.

Not so long since Felix had joined Chan and flew to South Korea the month he graduated middle school as he was aiming to be Taekwondo champion and his coach told him that it is better for him to continue it there, Felix was so happy to know that he would be joining Chan in the same school which was a bordering school for Arts & Sports.

Not just that but he got to experience being in a foreign country and also be able to befriend new friends and wear a pretty neat school uniform that he always wanted to wear whenever he watched a high school kdram series with his sisters in a movie night.

It has been two years since he came here and have been sharing this dorm with his roommate Seungmin who also happened to be attending this school for the same reason as his boyfriend, his voice sounded like an angel and his guitar abilities were also amazing that he befriended him so fast since the latter was good in English and he would make conversations with him easily since Felix's Korean was very poor in his first days here but he attempts to study it so hard so he can befriend so many more friends.

Felix was happy with the life he chooses for himself until now and wanted to share his memorable present with his closest ones beginning from his boyfriend. Despite Chan being his friend for almost 8 years he's now his boyfriend and those years don't count since the new experience with a lover starts from zero just like friendship.

Seungmin[in English]:"hey Felix, you want to go have breakfast with me"

He looked over from above his bed to look down at Seungmin doing his necktie in front of the mirror, Felix drew a thin line with his mouth letting all of his memories about his boyfriend disappears in the vain on the mention of food, he slide down the stairs of double bunk bed and jump on the ground making a huge bump sound, the moment he was on the same level as his roommate, Seungmin was already done doing his necktie and looked at Felix while crossing his arms waiting for the answer to his invite.

Felix:"yeah, just give me ten minutes to change"

Seungmin looked at his wrists watch for quite a second then nodded at his roommate satisfied with the time that Felix would take to get ready since it was not going to make any difference because school starts after another hour and the canteen was already open at this hour so they would make it in time either ways.

Felix turned towards his Uniform that was hanged on the left corner of their room where there was a computer set besides the hanger and the window on the other side, the freckled junior had grabbed his uniform and returned into his steps just to put his uniform on top of seungmin bed then he start stripping out from his pyjamas to change.

Seungmin was already at the dorm door buttoning his uniform blazer when he turned his head to the side for his sight to catch Felix dressing up with the corner of his eyes yet he couldn't see clearly without his glasses which reminds him that he's supposed to put them on, so he pulled out his glasses from it box and then put it on making his eyes get smaller.

Seungmin:"make it quick"

.

.

.

Felix:"Seungmin!! Wait for me!!"

Holding his empty tray while walking behind his dormmate, seungmin walked fast and was already at the food stool already filling his tray with food while Felix squeezed himself out of the crowd to catch up with him but seungmin was done and turned to look at Felix who was still getting his main breakfast.

Seungmin:"I'll wait for you at the usual table"

Felix looked at him just when he was putting himself in a croissant and found his friend already leaving his side, the freckled boy displaced him to his left so the canteen chief gave him a box of juice and salad on the side of his tray.

Felix walked out from the students line as he looked around to spot his dormmate sitting on the same table with two other two boy he recognized them as his Friends, once he got closer he could see the one who was sitting besides seungmin have his gummy smile as wide as the sun could ever compare with anything, han Jisung who was looking at Seungmin with heart eyes as he put his head on his shoulder with holding the hand that seungmin was wrapping around him. Then Felix recognized his other friend who's senior with brown hair and cat-like expression talking calmly to Jisung being his second boyfriend.

Felix was aware that Jisung is in a relationship with both seungmin and Minho but the two never admitted that they are dating.

Felix couldn't but stop midway toward the table, he looked at the two boys admiring his boyfriend in the middle being clingy and taking turns to feed him from their plate.

He didn't want to interrupt that.

"my little kitten is clueless with whom to sit with?"

Felix tiff shoulders relaxed once the raspy soft tone reached his ears, let alone the sentence was in English which caused him to be more comfortable. Felix in that moment turned around for his eyes to meet his one and only.

His boyfriend, Chan.

Felix:"no...seungmin invited me but I was scared of the third wheel"

Chan chuckled at his boyfriend reason but he was quick to cough it away to not make it sound like he's laughing at his boyfriend but then give him a side smile where his dimple showed and that made Felix's freckled cheeks get rosy since he loves that one deep dimple in his boyfriend's cheek.

Chan:"hey, who is this in front of you? Hmm...your boyfriend is here now so you don't have to turn down seungmin's invite without third wheeling too"

Felix:"yes, Haha...it's true"

Chan brought his hand in front of Felix who blushed looking left and right thinking if he's ready to hold his hands in front of everybody because no body was aware of them dating since it happened very recently but Felix lift the courage from the back of his mind and held His hands, the older take a second to look at their hands then fixed his eyes at Felix who was a blushing mess while looking away that caused Chan to blush as well.

Chan:"I wanted you to give me your tray not your hand Felix"

He chuckled that out upon seeing his boyfriend acting all flustered around him after being boyfriends despite they did worse than holding hands when they were friends -like Going to sauna together was the extreme skin contact they did- But that doesn't count since their feelings weren't involved.

Felix made an "ohh" sound as he let go of his hand and gave Chan the tray of food for both to walk towards Seungmin's table where the three boyfriends sat besides each other to save space for the two in front of them and jisung couldn't hold his excitement and not hide the news he wanted to share anymore.

Jisung:"Hey Felix!!! I'm going to throw my birthday party this week at Minho's flat and I was wondering if you would like to throw another one for your birthday since we are a day apart"

Jisung excitedly announced which brought a lot of students'attention as they never expected from him to throw a party since he's known to be very anti social let alone his boyfriends were anywhere different, since Jisung likes to keep his relationship with the two personal and not be associated with anything that has related to the words "socializing"

While Felix on the other hand, had known Jisung for two years since the first day he joined this boarding school and his sunshine twin -that what Jisung liked to call him- was there for him and teaching him Korean language along with Seungmin while getting extra help from Minho... The three boys were such amazing friends to him and he feels bad that he hasn't told them about his relationship with Chan.

Felix:"like double parties?"

He questioned with raised eye brows as he kept changing his gaze from Jisung to Minho since both parties are gonna be held in his house and he want to make sure that he's not annoying him by that but Minho quickly read the mood as he wrapped his arms around his boyfriends shoulders.

Minho:"yeah, since we're doing it far away from school in my flat then there's nothing to worry about"

Seungmin nodded as he held Jisung's hands and brought it to his mouth to leave a kiss in his knuckles where Minho was watching his boyfriend getting flustered with his other boyfriend and couldn't but be jealous of that. He wanted for seungmin to give him attention as well but he's too scared to do that since it would hurt his ego to ask him for affection.

Him and Seungmin used to compete for Jisung's love but he chooses both of them at the ending and it still feels odd to treat his love rival as another boyfriend.

Seungmin:"me and Minho already planned for everything just to make our baby alien happy"

He made eye contact with Jisung who chuckled and pulled both his and Minho's arms on both of his shoulders as he kept looking back in forth while saying "my lovely maniac bunny-kitty and savage puppy, I love both of you so much" he snuggles his head on Minho's crook neck for both boyfriends to look at him with heart eyes "we love you too" they say it unison which causes them to look at each other with flustered expression.

Minho:"hey! I didn't give you the permission to copy whatever I said"

As much as both Seungmin and Minho like each other but they don't want to surrender to those feelings, Minho wants to seem tough while seungmin want to seem careless but they know very well they both care for the other.

Seungmin:"ohh please hyung, like I would love copying you, maybe it's you who's doing that"

This was actually their love language, they have nothing against dating Jisung together but to be able to exchange attention, someone had to pull the other in either for a fight or a kiss.

Jisung:"you guys promised me no fight!! You don't want me to be unhappy at my birthday"

How much Jisung loves his boyfriends yet he's still clueless about his boyfriends intention for each one, he still thinks that they can handle each other where Minho and Seungmin still have that fierce competition in this relationship "we are sorry, hanni" but it was just them being attention seekers.

Jisung:"it's good to see you say that together at the same time, keep it that way it's cute"

Minho and Seungmin blushed not getting why being called cute together by their boyfriend made them feel soft and fluffy on the inside.

Felix:"they are so cute together, like even if Minho and Seungmin bicker from time to time but their love for jisung only gets them to chill and forget about it"

Chan chuckled as he slurped into some of Felix's juice box while looking at the three being very cute just like his boyfriend said and in their own word leaving him and Felix to third wheel, welp in this case it called forth wheeling.

Chan:"threesomes relationships rarely work since it is hard to share your love for two people at the same time and so far, I think those three are doing a great job"

He really hopes this relationship won't turn out in a disaster since he knew a few people that were in a poly relationship but had never worked because sharing love is harder than what you think.

Felix:"I wish them the happiest days to come"

He took the juice box from Chan's hands and ended what was left with one sip that caused Chan to chuckle at his boyfriend's sudden action with getting red around his cheeks.

How can Felix be this adorable?

.

.

.

Chan:"so...you agree with this double party idea?"

He turned to his boyfriend just when they finished their classes and now both of them are going to the dormitory as chan lead the way towards his own dorm since he doesn't have a dormmate or in this situation his dormmate graduated and school hasn't give the empty spot in his dorm to anyone yet.

Felix:"of course! Jisung is my friend and the same goes for Seungmin and Minho-hyung, are you...coming?"

He shyly asked with fiddling his fingers together with rosy cheeks hoping that his now boyfriend would love to accompany him to the party as his boyfriend not as a friend.

Chan looked at Felix dumbfounded, the same boy that he always considers as his soulmate and great partner in every decision is asking him a stupid question like that... He wished to kiss him right now to prove him wrong but there were people around them and Felix said he wasn't ready to come out yet and he respects that since it was new to both of them.

Chan:"is that even a question you ask your boyfriend? OF COURSE I'm coming, it would be weird if I didn't"

Felix smiled showing his dimples as he clapped his hands and lifted up his thumbs up.

Felix:"noice! I wonder who's coming as well? Those three aren't that good with socializing"

He chuckled after what he said, he always tries to be friends with everyone but these three in particular were among he's closest friends that he likes spending most of his time with them yet socializing is scared of them especially Jusung.

He might seem all loud, bubbly and talkative but he's the most introverted between the three, seungmin came after him then Minho.

Chan:"I know that there are going to be 9 people including us"

Chan knows that Changbin would be coming since he was his and jisung's friend because of the music producing club but he doesn't know about the other three.

Felix:"is there gonna be any girls?"

Chan:"nope! Just guys and gays"

Felix chuckled as he sat on Chan's bed as they made it to the dorm where Chan sat on the opposite bed avoiding to be touchy because it could put his boyfriend in a very difficult situation like last time.

Long story short, Chan tried to kiss him but Felix panicked and didn't talk to him in two days and you don't know how much these 48 hours felt to Chan- felt like years.

Felix:"I want to tell them about us"

Chan looked at him with wide eyes, not believing such words were coming out from his boyfriend's mouth, the same boyfriend who wanted no one to know about their relationship.

But he smiled, he was happy that Felix is making progress through this relationship and trying his best to fit in with their new environment.

Chan:"you can do that whenever you want lix"

The younger actually blushed receiving that nickname, Chan has been calling him with that for almost a decade but now it is different because Felix is seeing his ex best friend in a different perspective.

He was his lover that Felix wished to spend eternity with and he could not imagine a day without him. Despite him ignoring him for two days after Chan decided to kiss him but he suffered just as much.

Felix:"i know but...i get scared every time I approch seungmin for doing it"

Chan wished he could give his boyfriend a side hug right now on seeing him nervous and he did... He stood up from his bed and went to the opposite, Felix watched him as he took a seat besides him and wrapped his arms around his torso bringing him closer which caused Felix to calm down and lean to his boyfriend's warm embrace putting his head on his shoulders.

Chan:"hmmm...then how about this, we can come out to them together at the party... How does that sound?"

Felix hugged Chan back with both of his arms going around his middle with snuggling his head a little in his chest feeling confident of what he was doing and Chan smiled looking at his boyfriend getting comfortable in his arms so he stroked his hair with his fingers.

Felix:"i like that"

Him hearing that made Chan confident as well to ask him on a date since both of them haven't got the chance to go to one because they were still adapting to this new change of their relationship.

Chan:"now that we're on the topic, would you like to go out on a date with me?"

He has nothing in plan but he would like to explore the rest of the day with his boyfriend choosing only the places Felix wants to go.

The younger let go of his boyfriend as he blushed thinking of his boyfriend's words and it was his first time in three years when someone asked him on a date.

The last time was nice and all and that relationship didn't last long so he doesn't give a damn about it because it was from the past.

But Chan on the other hand had lived with him for enough years to actually trust him with taking him on a date and treating him well as a partner.

Felix:"i want to...but I need to wash my hair first"

Chan's hand never left his hair as he was still patting it and never seemed to stop because it became an addiction.

Chan:"very well then...let me have that honor Lix"

.

.

.

Felix somehow found himself sitting in his boyfriend's bed in his bedroom in his villa where every family member was out except for the house keepers that work here, he had always known that Chan came from a rich family and that wasn't a big deal because he's family wasn't much different.

He looked around familiar with the room since he's been coming here for the past two years and how many memories he made with his boyfriend, when both of them were friends.

Chan:"lix, you ready? Come in whenever you want"

Felix gulped as he stood up from the best walking towards the bathroom and as he stepped his feet inside he already found a place ready for him to sit, he sat at the small bunch, Chan wrapped a towel around his shoulders and titled his head backward for his hair to dangle over the bath tub where the older one brought a mobile shower head as he turned it on to wet his boyfriend hair but it was too cold.

Felix:"AHHH it's cold!!!"

He complained about the water temperature in a cute tone by pouting his lips up for Chan to chuckle and change the water to be the perfect temperature for Felix's head, he continued washing his hair by implying shampoo and rubbing all the areas in his head not missing a spot until the foam was hiding every piece of hair he own.

He turned the shower head again to wash all that foam and shampoo from his boyfriend's hair and when everything was done he made him sit up straight again where Chan held the towel and started wiping Felix's wet black hair.

Both left the bathroom for Chan to search for his hairdryer to dry his boyfriend's hair before catching a cold.

Once everything was settled...

Chan:"go pick something from my closet and let go"

Felix smiled nodding his head as he walked towards his boyfriend's closet and among all the black hoodies he had, he chose the one he gifted him a long time ago.

He quickly removed his blazer with his white shirt to put it on and sniff on Chan's scent that caused him to smile.

Felix:"but Chan-hyung...you don't have a pair of pants that fits me"

He turned to look at Chan who was shirtless putting on his black tee which Felix finds attractive to look at his milk skin and shaped body but he shook his head immediately getting a grip together and focused on what was important.

Chan:"you sure Felix? I think there's some of my old pants there, I keep them for you if you ever come here and sleepover"

Felix blushed considering the kindness his boyfriend released wasn't something he deserves in this world, he was still smiling looking through Chan's pants wardrobe until he could spot one of his pants inside them.

He pulled those jeans out and scanned them with his eyes to convince himself that those were his. not long ago since his boyfriend tagged along with him inside the closet keeping him company wherever he goes.

Chan:"What is wrong lix?"

Felix:"I was just thinking that, if we made the right decision to be together...like I love you Chan-hyung but what if we broke up and had to go separate ways? I'm already used to you in my life"

He dropped the jeans and turned to his boyfriend to hug him, Chan wasn't that much taller since both were almost the same height but that didn't stop him from swimming in his warm embrace.

Chan put on a worried face caressing Felix's soft hair that he recently watched while holding his waist by his other arm.

He understands that both presence in their life matters and Chan wouldn't want to break up with Felix either, he's already smitten to him to actually do that and he won't ever let go of those hands. Never.

Chan:"that's not going to happen I love you so much to even break your heart, now wear those pants and meet me downstairs so we could go on our date"

He planted a kiss on his shown forehead while removing his bangs to the side, the two stared at each other with fondness not leaving any facial expression with their eyes yet it landed on their lips and wondered how it felt to go for a kiss.

Felix was nervous but he, leaned forward and kissed his boyfriend on the side of his mouth with a gentle soft peck for Chan to freeze not expecting his boyfriend to make a move on him so fast not after he rejected his kiss the other day and ignored him for two days straight... Chan couldn't handle the thickness of the air around him so he left his closet leaving his boyfriend change and went downstairs just like he planned to do.

But down there he couldn't hold the urge to squeal like a fan girl where he started laughing while screaming and shaking his hands not knowing how to react next. Chan was about to grab Felix and joined their lips for a deep passionate lips kiss but he contained himself and thought it would be better if he did it later when both of them wanted it.

He waited for a few minutes until he started hearing footsteps coming from the stairs and when Felix made it to where he was standing, Chan is still not over his thinking and kissing his boyfriend might shoo it away.

Felix:"come on...let go"

.

.

.

They arrived at the game arcade since Chan knows how much Felix loves games and video games overall. They took a stroll to every game and he ended up losing most of the time because of how talented his boyfriend is in gaming.

Felix:"YAY!! I WON I WON AGAIN"

he screamed loudly upon seeing the screen in front of him with the big font "WINNER" with clapping his hands and being happy to turn around to find his Boyfriend sweating like a maniac seeming that he just ran a marathon.

Well close, since the game they were playing including dancing and Chan isn't good at that while apparently Felix already knows how to breakdance that left him shocked.

Chan:"since when do you know how to dance?"

Felix chuckled tabbing his back with soft tabs then wrapping his arm around his shoulder to lead him to a sitting area to fix Chan and give him the water bottle to relax, Felix then situated himself besides him watching his boyfriend drinking water from that bottle and decided to answer his question after he's done hydrating himself.

Felix:"you know how Minho takes dance classes as a side major? Jisung would invite me to his flat and we all start playing dance games since it is everyone's favorite"

Chan furrowed his eyebrows hearing about this for the first time as he felt betrayed that his boyfriend used to do this stuff without telling him.

Chan:"Why wasn't I tagged along? I was your best friend no?"

Felix's eyes got sad shaking his head with wrapping his arms around his boyfriend again both wanting to seem like a cheater because that's how it sounds after being accused of something he thought was normal.

Felix:"No chan-hyung...jisung and the others are my friends and you already know that we hang out a lot...i never replaced you"

Speaking in the past tense, Chan was aware that he couldn't see Felix as his best friend anymore... They both accept their feelings to be something more than friendship and it hurt him that Felix was feeling like he's a bad guy when he just was enjoying his time with the threesome boyfriends.

If it makes his boyfriend happy then he can't take that away from him.

Chan:"I know I'm sorry...I'll let my feelings get the best of me, you're free to hang out with whoever you want so I'm not stopping you"

Felix felt like he was making this "friends" matter get them in a bad way but he tried to think this over and came up with the best thing to calm his boyfriend down... He pulled his hands out from the others shoulders and fixed them on his cheeks where he turned Chan's face toward him and with a smile Felix leaned to place a kiss besides his boyfriends lips again.

Felix:"don't worry, I'm not leaving your side"

As much as he wants to pull him into a long French kiss but Chan thought this moment would be memorable if he let it be soft and warm just like the days in the spring so he held tight into one of Felix's hands and kissed his palms lucky to be able to call himself his boyfriend.

.

.

.

The day had come for the party, Felix was nervous all morning biting onto his pencil not focusing on his classes.

He was still a junior but his goal was already decided, even after learning so many subjects or art lessons since he knows very well what he wanted to do after graduation and to be able to go to an Olympic college he needed to study and graduate.

Felix isn't that great with his studies.

"LIX!!!" he heard his name being called and as he jerked his head open he could see Chan, his boyfriend standing at his class door while his classmates gave him eyes -mostly girls- since he was a famous figure here in this school ground.

Felix:"Channie-hyung"

He quickly gathered his things as it was already lunch time when he promised his boyfriend to join him to lunch today as well.

Chan:"do you have classes after?"

He asked as he took a sip from his soda cone, the two were walking towards their usual spot in the staircase that connects the back doors of the school and the indoor swimming pool.

It was a secret place only Chan and Felix know since students don't bother to come around here at lunch breaks or recesses which makes the perfect place for the boyfriends to stay away from spotlights and keep it undercover.

Felix:"yes, two classes"

They situated at the top staircase close to each other as Felix brought his lunch box from his bag while Chan stuck to the sandwich he brought from the canteen.

Felix held his chopsticks and fed his boyfriend one of the kimpamb slices not happy of Chan's lunch being only a sandwich and after that they shared his four slices of brownies that he baked this morning with his mother.

Chan:"have you bought a gift for Jisung?"

Felix nodded putting all the leftovers on his lunchbox again and shoving it inside his bag after they finished having their lunch.

Felix:"yes, it is a black hoodie with a swag alien wearing a cap print on it, how about you?"

Chan watched the movement of Felix's lips while talking when he spotted a piece of rice in the corner of his mouth, he reached his hand and picked it and ate it after, the freckles cheeks that belongs to the younger becomes red and he unable to control his heart beat because what his boyfriend did was unexpected and caught him off guard.

But the other was not bothered and continued leading the conversation.

Chan:"a mug with Minho's and Seungmin's faces"

Felix looked at him with wide eyes not believing that his boyfriend could actually think of a creative idea of a gift.

Felix:"that's so creative"

Chan:"well technically, Jisung is my friend...him, changbin and I are all in a music producing club and we make songs sometimes"

That was even shocking since Felix was unaware of how close his boyfriend is with his club mates because he also befriended Jisung 2 years ago yet the squirrel looking boy had never told him about his relationship with Chan being close or not.

Felix:"I know about the club but I never knew jisung was your friend"

The younger was curious on how the two know each other but Chan just shrugged it off failing to read his boyfriend's body language as he shrugged his shoulders while putting on a dumb face.

Chan:"maybe he just forgot to tell you, that guy only thinks of how to please his boyfriends...it's getting annoying"

He shook his head in annoyance remembering the day how Jisung got one of his panic attacks because he forgot one of his boyfriend's birthday, Chan was never against his threesome's relationship but it seems like it takes a lot of effort since both of the boyfriends are still in the competing phase and not accepting that Jisung chose them both.

He felt sorry for his little friend.

Felix:"why is it annoying? Won't you feel the same for me?"

Chan wasn't expecting the sudden change, they were talking about Jisung why would Felix suddenly start talking about them?

It's not like he is against it but he wants to make it clear that his lix is the most important thing in his life right now.

Chan:"damn it lix...of course I would love to please you, I love you and you know that"

He wrapped his arm around the other's shoulder and left a kiss on his cheeks that caused Felix to smile alongside the confession, the younger did the exact same thing not wanting to be left with affection alone.

He wants to give Chan the much he receives from him, he loves it when everything is equal.

Felix:"I love you too"

.

.

.

Jisung:"omg Felix you made it!!"

The first thing Felix saw once the birthday boy opened the door was nothing but a big smile on his face, the Australian loves when he sees his squirrel friend always happy, it's healthy for his heart seeing his gummy smile every day.

Minho and Seungmin should protect that smile at any cost.

Felix:"of course I would come, you invited me"

Jisung let out a shy chuckle as he let him in and during the process of removing their shoes Chan took the opportunity to give him the bags that's been bothering him all the way up here since Minho's flat is situated at the top floor and this building's elevator was under construction so they suffered climbing up the stairs.

Chan:"here's your gifts, Ji"

The boy smiled even widely to be gifted by his friends, he feels a little like a burden but he keeps reminding himself that today is his day so it's okay to have them.

Jisung:"awww you guys didn't have to"

That's why he's a total sunshine and Felix was about to collapse from how pure intentions his friend has but he contains himself as he coughed with putting his fist under his nose.

Felix:"but we want to and we hope you like our choices of gifts"

Jisung nodded then held Felix by his wrist to start dragging him towards the living room inviting them in.

Jisung:"thank you so much now come on in, the whole gang is here"

Chan watched how Felix was being trapped in another guest where he felt comfortable around jisung and introduced himself fearing nothing for being the extrovert he is where the older smiled seeing him laugh with the rest group of friends until he spot Changbin standing by himself at the dining counter watching the gang as he took sips from what it looks like his protein shake?

Chan:"wassup binni"

He approaches him as both boys did a fist greeting and both stand besides each other watching how jisung started opening up his gift and at that moment Changbin turned to him to ask the following inquiry.

Changbin:"you bring him a mug with Minho's and Seungmin's face on it, didn't you?"

Chan shot him with wide eyes right when Jisung was opening Chan's gifted which made him chuckle at the mug that includes his two boyfriends faces knowing very well it was from his Australian friend.

Chan:"how did you_"

Changbin:"phew, I almost did that but I brought him a set of headphones"

Changbin put his hand on top of his chest as he thanked himself for not doing the exact same thing as his friends while Chan was shocked that the other brought a set of headphones as a gift.

Chan:"dude- headphones?!"

Changbin just smirked pointing at jisung who was happy the most with headphones since his old ones were broken, while the rest of the gifts were either clothes, accessories and perfume.

Felix:"Channie-hyung"

Chan was startled by his boyfriend approaching them, Felix looked at Changbin with a wide smile as he waved at him who waved back.

Changbin:"Felix Hi, how are you?"

Chan doesn't like the way those two were exchanging smiles, he felt jealous but since no one knows about his relationship with Felix then he shouldn't feel like this.

Felix:"I'm fine, thank you for asking, aren't you guys joining us? We're going to have cake"

Chan crossed his arms as he nodded turning to his friends behind him and pointing with his thumb.

Chan:"ohh sure, we should go too and introduce ourselves, don't you think?"

Changbin put his protein shake on the counter fancy of the idea of having sweet right now because he started getting hungry.

Changbin:"yeah...let's go"

.

.

.

Hyunjin:"so Felix...what do you wanna do after you graduate?"

He asked while taking bites from the cake, he just wanted to get to know Felix better since he seems friendly to introduce himself like something normal to do... Hyunjin wasn't good with strangers.

Felix:"Taekwondo"

It was obvious since he's aiming that from the beginning, people always praise him for his talents he gained through the years and even with 62 medals, he's still aiming for more.

He wanted to fight against every famous Taekwondo character and reach for the top.

Minho:"I used to do Taekwondo since I was 7 until my year as a freshman..."

It was new information for everyone to know except for Changbin since they know each other from middle school.

Felix was shocked since he was doing Taekwondo from around the time he was a toddler and wondered why him and Minho didn't share the same passion.

Felix:"why would you stop?"

Everyone looked at Minho for him to answer that being all curious by their actions excluding Seungmin who was scrolling on his phone not giving a crap.

That made Minho get sad.

Minho:"I stopped because I found something else that could make me happy which is dancing"

While his eyes were on Seungmin, Jisung hugged his torso and hugged him on the couch cuddling him by rubbing his face against his chest.

Jisung:"i love seeing you dance"

Minho immediately smiled bringing his hands to embrace his boyfriend in a hug leaving a kiss on his temple.

Hyunjin:"talking about which, Minho prepared a duo dance for your birthday gift"

Jisung let go with wide eyes and a teeth smile looking at Hyunjin excited about that where he looked back at Minho and kissed him on the cheeks.

Jisung:"awww baby, that's romantic"

Felix smiled fondly at the couple wanting to have the courage to kiss his boyfriend in front of everyone like them, his thoughts made him look at Chan who was looking back at him.

That made the freckled boy blush and look away until his eyes spot Seungmin from across the couch watching Minho and Jisung with jealous eyes.

Soon enough, Hyunjin and Minho start dancing to the beat they choose and everyone enjoyed their performance with clapping at the end except for Seungmin who kept scrolling on his phone, Minho didn't know why he wanted him to praise him so he tried to gain his attention with something else.

Minho:"see that Kim seungmin? I'm a better boyfriend unlike you"

Seungmin:"whatever... don't pick a fight with me, it's Jisung's birthday"

There was a bell that brought everyone's attention and the most happy of the new guests was Jisung yet everyone immediately knew that it was his cousin after he left the living room to the front door to welcome his relative.

Jisung walked back with another guy besides him, he was taller and had brown hair and he had features that made him look older than he looks.

Jisung:"guys I would like to introduce you to my cousin taeyeon, he also goes to this school"

Everyone smiled fondly at Jisung's cuteness while introducing his cousin.

Taeyeon:"Han, I have a mouth"

Seungmin:"yes babe, let him talk"

Jisung realized what he did so smiled nervously while scratching his cheeks with his fingers feeling embarrassed that he let his excitement get in control of him.

Jisung:"sorry I'm getting excited since a lot of people came to celebrate my birthday so I'm grateful for all of you"

Someone between the boys felt like he needed to confess something. He stood having the courage to face the birthday boy.

He took a deep breath and gained the attention before he spoke.

Jeongin:"I am sorry Jisung-hyung but I came here for cake"

Seungmin can't believe those words came from his mouth while Jisung and Minho were clueless on what the younger boy meant.

Seungmin:"JEONGIN"

Felix want to laugh at the situation but it seems so serious so he contains it.

Jeongin:"what? I never knew you were in a poly relationship until yesterday"

As he said that, Seungmin froze looking back at his boyfriend and Minho who smirked taking this as a betrayal way for their relationship.

Minho:"you don't talk about us huh?"

Jisung felt sad wanting to believe that Seungmin is innocent and he loves him and the decision of him choosing both was acceptable.

Jisung wants Seungmin to tell him that he's okay with what they are doing with Minho but Jeongin was quick to correct himself and not put anyone into a hassle.

Jeongin:"no he told about Jisung and I thought that's it but he never told me he got another boyfriend"

He pointed at Minho who didn't give a reaction but looked at Seungmin looking forward to his answer, they both stared at each other for a few seconds where the others could feel that something is going on between these two but nothing was clear.

Three minutes of silence passed for Seungmin to say the next sentence.

Seungmin:"that's because Minho-hyung isn't my boyfriend"

The cousin was barley picking up with jisung's threesome relationship but he thought that wasn't his business so he went with introducing himself to the gang.

Taeyeon:"hi guys... like Jisung said I'm his cousin, I'm a senior and the president of the photography club and I would love to get to know you all"

Changbin:"cool, now we should start the birthday activity, what is in the list Ji?"

Jisung smiled at him with his teeth and searched for his eyes to be able to stop Felix then walked towards him and brought him up to stand beside him before announcing what includes everything related to the party

Jisung:"I prepared some mini games and since it's Felix's birthday tomorrow so we would double the fun and make it more loud for two birthdays"

His cousin smiled finding Felix being confused so adorable so he approaches them after being able to have a conversation with Felix.

Taeyeon:"your birthday is tomorrow? What a coincidence...happy early birthday"

He chuckled a bit then looked at Chan who made it too obvious for Felix that he was jealous but that didn't last because he decided to ignore it.

Felix:"thank you Taeyeon-sunbae"

The teenagers start having their time playing mini games, Minho brought a ping-pong table from his parents house especially for this night so they all played together, then it was Seungmin turn to preform a song he wrote it for Jisung as a birthday present which sent the squirrel like boy into heaven.

They moved on with the silent game, where the player should act according to the word that was given to them for example, Hyunjin showed Felix a word which is a fish so the younger has to act exactly like a fish while the others kept trying to guess what he is and that is how the game kept going.

Finally, they ended up playing spin the bottle and the person that got chosen had to either pick a truth or dare papers and if they didn't want to do it then their punishment is to take a shot.

From confessions to yes and no questions then towards dancing naked, playing seven minutes in heaven or basically to take a shot.

The teenagers find this game as an excuse to have fun and drink alcohol.

In the last round, the bottle spined until it pointed out at Felix where he felt bold and picked a dare while everyone was cheering him on being half drunk, he read what it contained and froze as he looked at Chan.

Felix:"kiss the person closest to you in this room"

The others start cheering on thinking it is a dumb thing Felix would do to Chan as kissing him on the cheek or taking a shot to avoid doing this but something they all didn't expect is Chan pulling Felix by the back of his neck and crashing their lips together.

Their lips tangled against each other for Felix who couldn't handle the pleasure this kiss has since it was their first time kissing as boyfriends, he started pushing him back for Chan to let go and look at him with narrow eyes.

When he looked directly at his boyfriend and with them tasting their lips, Felix could tell that Chan didn't consume any alcohol.

Felix:"you aren't...drunk?"

Chan gave him a teeth smile to grab him by the back of his neck to kiss him again but a quick peck this time.

Chan:"i can't drink when I know that I'm responsible for my boyfriend's safety"

Jisung was in Seungmin's embrace being caged wity the other long arms as he watched Felix and Chan exposing their secret relationship that they have been doing to remind him that Minho went to brush his teeth before going but he hasn't come ever since.

Jisung:"seungmo, go look for min"

He looked up at his boyfriend with duo pleading eyes for seungmin to smile leaving a peck on his lips just to ask after.

Seungmin:"is this party over?"

Jisung:"yeah, I'm tired...I'll go on a play date tomorrow with Felix to celebrate his birthday"

Seungmin carefully lifted jisung in his arms and put him besides Felix for both to cuddle against each other being the wholesome adorable friends.

Seungmin:"lix, I'll leave him to you, I'll go look for minho-hyung"

Felix nods spooning his friend with his arms for seungmin to pull himself up and go look for Minho like his boyfriend told him to do, he checked the bedroom and found Minho already changed into his sleeping wear standing in the middle of the room holding a blanket.

Both stared at each for some time before Minho could say in a low voice "get closer" seungmin's hands that were holding the doorknob let go of it and immediately obeyed his hyung's request.

When he got closer, Minho pulled him by his shirt and crashed their lips together, the younger immediately close his eyes and wrapped his long arms around his hyung's torso.

They were drunk but not drunk enough to actually realize their actions, Minho and Seungmin always wanted to take this step.

Hyunjin on the other hand, was actually clinging to Jeongin who kept making disgusting faces trying to avoid it since he wasn't fully drunk but soon he was able to put hyunjin's arms around his shoulders and lift him up and be responsible for him.

Jeongin:"I'll be taking my leave with hyunjin, take care guys"

Hyunjin immediately wrapped his arms around Jeongin's shaking his head not liking the younger's response.

Hyunjin:"noooo I wanna staaaaay"

His voice was too loud for jeongin that made him question why did he decided to take care of him? Maybe the taller was suitable in filling the blank of his idle type.

Jeongin found himself attracted to the stranger.

Chan:"wait, me and changbin will come with you and since i didn't drink, let me drive you guys"

The older approaches the younger with Changbin in his arms where his friend was already gone and drunk hyunjin laughed at his state.

Hyunjin:"hehe, he passed out"

His smile made jeongin feel stuff in the inside but he soon got a grip of himself and turned to thank the oldest for taking the role of driving them all to their wanted destinations.

Jeongin:"thank you hyung"

Chan smiled back putting Changbin on the couch and going towards Felix and leave a peck on his cheeks, nose and lips... The rest of the boys stand there third wheeling while the unexpected duo revealed that they were dating.

Felix being a little drunk didn't care about anyone and fixed his lips more deeply into the other's lips.

Chan:"I'll be back lix, don't drink anymore okay?"

Felix didn't want the other to broke the kiss and he didn't want to disobey him either so he nods his head slightly and watched how Chan and Jeongin left taking responsibility of the others.

Felix returned his head on Jisung lap as he lay his back while looking up at the ceiling, his squirrel-like friend start stroking his black hair with soft touches.

Jisung:"so you and him are dating?"

He asked after witnessing the two kissing two times, since Seungmin told him that Felix was acting suspiciously for the past few days and thought he was dating someone. At first jisung didn't believe him until tonight and Felix dating Chan was all he wanted to know to clearfy his boyfriend's theory.

Felix:"y-yeah...we always liked each other more than friends"

He wanted to ask more questions but Jisung only smiled being happy for the other, leaving the suspecting for another day.

Jisung:"I'm happy for you"

Felix:"thank you, seungmin didn't return yet"

Jisung stopped stroking his hair with leaving a tired sigh, he's sure that Seungmin found Minho and they would be fighting again.

Jisung:"I bet he found min and both of them are bickering like they always do"

At this point, he just wanted for the two to accept their fate in being a poly with him because it start to get draining to calm them down everytime they start fighting.

Felix:"you want them to resolve"

Jisung:"I'll appreciate it if they become at least friends and stop fighting for my love when I obviously choose them both...if they ever fall in love with each other that would be amazing I had always shipped them"

Felix chuckled at the last part finding it funny how jisung was shipping both of his boyfriends that has been nothing but a bickering old married couple, but he's glad that the other know how to contain his anger and live with that drama everyday.

Felix:"I'll go check on them, okay?"

Felix stand up from the couch while jisung lay completely on it and then give him a smile.

Jisung:"okay...thank you Felix, I'll take a nap"

Felix covered him with a blanket and walk all the way towards Minho's room and as he was getting closer he could hear fainted chatters.

Weird... Weren't they suppose to be bickering based on what jisung says.

Minho:"why didn't you clap when I danced?"

It was the first thing Felix heard as he stand at the door step hiding himself completely to eavesdrop what the two were talking about.

Seungmin:"why does that matter?"

Minho felt like he wants to scream his desires for the other.

Minho:"it matters, when you tell people about our poly, mention me too"

Felix was in total shock putting his hand on his mouth the more he listen to them.

Seungmin:"but hyung, you aren't my boyfriend"

Minho immediately grabbed the others hands and put seungmin's palms against his cheeks with closing his eyes.

Minho had always liked Seungmin.

Minho:"then let us be boyfriends, minni I like you so much"

Seungmin hold his jaw and brought him more closer to him, Minho made it faster and attacked his lips.

Kissing sounds were heard from outside and Felix was blushing trying to picture the two kissing in intimate way.

He thought he should leave.

Seungmin:"I like you a lot too"

Minho giggled under his gaze clutching into his chest and putting his head on Seungmin's shoulder.

Minho:"you make me go crazy for you"

Felix thought that this was the moment to go but what seungmin said next made him stay in.

Seungmin:"but what about jisung? I hate hiding things for him"

Minho:"of course we're going to tell him, now let me cuddle you"

When he start hearing sort of shuffling he switch to leaving the he'll out of here and contact his own boyfriend to take him out of here.

But he couldn't stop smiling because that what Jisung all wanted for the both of them and would never tell anyone what he heard.

Felix:"jisung would be happy to know about this"

He would just act clueless when Jisung mention it to avoid suspicious ness.

.

.

.

Felix was walking on the hallway going toward the front door after puking on the toilet seat twice, he sober up a little bit and all he needs is to breathe some refreshing air before calling Chan to come pick him up but when he was about to leave the hallway which connected the bedroom and the living room together, Jisung's cousin was drunk and he tried to clings into Felix with holding him by his hand.

The younger didn't want to seem rude so he says "hyung, you're drunk! Snap out of it" but others didn't let go but pulled his arm and Taeyeon made sure to kiss him on his wrists... Felix was furious and disgusted that the elder was taking advantage of him.

But soon enough Chan came back after dropping the others at their home, he saw his boyfriend trying to break free from Taeyeon, which made him furious how the older drunk state was pushing him to harass Felix but before he could do that, Chan walked towards him and asked politely if he could let his boyfriend go.

Taeyeon:"ohh shit, I never knew he was your boyfriend...sorry man"

even if Taeyeon was mistaken but he backed off the moment he got no chance with Felix which both wonder if that only happens when he drinks alcohol or he did harass others before including being sober.

Chan walked quickly towards Felix as soon as taeyeon left and pulled him into a hug crushing him in his arms but no one complained because they missed each other's embrace

Felix:"i want to go away from here"

the younger begged for the older to full fill, he took him in his arms and both left Minho's apartment.

They soon arrived at his car with Chan taking the driving seat while Felix took the passenger seat, it was calm with some classic soothing jazz music that sends the athlete immediately into a slumber.

His head was titled against the window, his eyes were closed with lashes visible on top of his cheek bones, his heart shaped lips were slightly open by the fact of his berthing snoring and Chan found him adorable in this sleeping position.

He always complained before of his loud Felix's snoring And now, chan can't help but be in love with it.

He turned down the radio and took a quick turn towards his house where he parked the car after. The dorms would be closed at this hour and his family all slept on the second floor so he would be taking the guest rooms on the first floor.

He carefully lifted Felix on his arms to start walking towards the room he's supposed to be sleeping with his boyfriend.

He would get so many questions from his family tomorrow morning but at this point Chan really didn't care because he wanted the world to know that Felix was his boyfriend.

In a few minutes, Chan arrived at the guest room where he put Felix in bed and joined him after, he was done changing to comfortable clothes, he did the same for Felix taking his extra clothes off and left him with his t-shirt, pants and socks..

Felix's eyes lids flew open to see his boyfriend so close to him, he soon figured out that Chan was cuddling him with arms wrapped around his torso and legs crossed between his, Felix nudged his nose against the other's chest.

Felix:"I love you, I will always love you"

Chan smiled looking at his boyfriend whispering those words against his shirt fabric that was muffled yet the older was able to hear him clearly and he wonders how adorable the other can be.

Chan:"me too, I'm so in love with you lix, that's why I want my love to taste sweet just like strawberry syrup"

He held his chin and raised his head so Felix's sleepy eyes would fix into his face and with that Chan lean closer and collect his lips for a long savoring soft kiss, the younger felt his head turn around while getting dizzy because he was very sleepy by the alcohol, the cuddle, Chan's embrace now the kiss.

Felix didn't take time before sleeping in between the kiss and Chan chuckled at the view of his boyfriend's head falling down onto his chest the moment he broke free of his lips.

Chan:"you're adorable"

He wrapped his arms again around Felix's frame, Chan put his head on top of the other's head with closing his eyes and a smile never escaping his lips.

Chan is grateful for Felix and his existence in his life as his childhood best friend, his soulmate and now his lover.

How excited he was to experience the taste of this sweet love he's sharing with his boyfriend.

The sweet taste of strawberry syrup.
