THE GOOD AND THE BAD - DANCERACHA

~CHAPTER 9~

~HYUNJIN P.O.V.~

I saw Felix going back to his friends and start eating and talking, there was something different about him. I shake my head, what the hell are you talking about Hyunjin? Don't let him get to you.

I walk back to my table and see Minho sitting there, eating the garbage they call 'lunch'.

"Where have you been?" He asked looking up at me.

I shuffled in my seat. He is so intimidating when he looks at me like that.

"Nowhere," I said, "it's not important."

"So, you were nowhere or you were somewhere but it's not important, which of the two Hyunjin?"

"Both? No, none, ugh," I rolled my eyes,  "it doesn't matter, and can you please stop looking at me like that, I'm you're best friend."

"It does, if you were nervous when you got here, it's because it was something big." He said, poking the inside of his cheek with his tongue.

I sighed.

"I apologized to Felix," I said, and took a bite of my bread.

"Felix?" He asked, "the nerd that gave us the tour?"

"Don't call him that, and yes, it was the boy that gave us the tour," he opened his mouth to say something but before he could even start I caught him off, "before you start whining I know I did the right thing. You told me when I asked you how to cope with you know, all that, that your recommendation was for me to be cold. You said that being cold wasn't about being mean, it was about being sharp. We weren't sharp with Felix, we were mean, and you should apologize to him," I said, raising my eyebrows.

He put his arms up in defense.

"You are right with that, and when you're right, you're right," He said shrugging his shoulders, "I'll do it tomorrow. What did he say anyway?"

"He accepted my apologies, he knew right away that I was pretending to be cold, but that it wasn't my real personality, it was really weird, but he didn't use it against me, he said I could relax around me, be myself, he's very kind you know?"

"Okay, that's great, he looks like a good person, maybe you could be friends?" He asked.

"I don't think that would work though," I said.

"Why not? You said he forgave you."

"Yes, but his friends are very protective over him,"

"What do you mean, 'very protective'?" He asked frowning.

"I can tell that if they could, they would put a restraining order against the both of us. We hurt Felix's feelings, and it looks like that equals death for his friends, especially the older ones."

"He has older friends?" He asked.

"Yes, the dude that came to talk to us in class, and another one, I think his name is Changbin," I said.

He nodded.

"Maybe you should try to bring his friends confidence back, be nice to Felix, but don't get your hopes up until you are certain that he is a very good person, I don't want you to get hurt again,"

"Don't worry Min, I will," I said, "I love it when you get protective over me, it makes me feel loved," I said.

He chuckled.

"Okay Hyunjin, whatever you say."
