VII
"What do you mean your leaving!?" Jisung yells at his friend as they sit down for lunch at Woojin's cafe. Thankfully Nayeon was on a break and she could sit with them.
"Jisung, please, scream louder. I don't think they heard you in America." Felix says rolling his eyes.
"Sorry sorry, but- you like just got here!"
"Jisung, trust me, if anyone is disappointed, it's me. It hurts knowing that I could only spend my high school years with you guys. But this doesn't mean that we'll lose touch ok?" Felix tries his best to reassure his panicking friend.
"Damn." Jisung looks away and Nayeon speaks up.
"Felix, we will miss you. But please come back to us, when all this blows over." She clasps her hands together, worry lacing her eyes.
"I will, or I'll try to at least. But it's not like I'm leaving tomorrow! Let's just enjoy the time I have left here. Alright?" The other boys just nod their heads. The doorbell rings and in come a few other students, including Jeongin and Seungmin.
"Guys! Over here!" Minho calls.
"Hi hyungs! Sorry we're late, Mrs. Kim kept us a bit." Jeongin chuckles as he and Seungmin sit.
"It's ok."
"So what did you guys want to talk about?" Seungmin asks.
"I'm-"
"Felix is leaving." Jisung finishes for him.
"Wait...What?"
"At the end of this trimester I'm going back to Australia." Felix clarifies.
"Why?"
"Wish I could tell you, but my dad hasn't said anything, other than it's about my mom, although I'm assuming it's the trial."
"Oh my god. Felix.." Seungmin raises his hand to his mouth.
"Yeah, yeah. But I like I said earlier, I'm leaving at the end of this trimester so we have some time. Let's just enjoy senior year ok? And I'll be back when this all blows over. It's not goodbye, it's just a..." Felix takes a pause as he tries to think of something to say. "...See you later. Yeah it's just a 'see you later'."
"Well, as much as I would love to continue talking guys, it's time for you all to get back to school. But let's all hang around again soon yeah?" Nayeon says softly. The others nod and get up and leave the small cafe.
The 5 boys walk towards their respective classes, for Jeongin that meant English. For Seungmin, it was Algebra 3. Jisung, Minho, and Felix all had dance.
The three seniors walk along the hallway as Hyunjin and Chan meet up with them at the corner.
"Yo yo yo dance bro." Chan says annoyingly brightly. Felix sighs.
"Hey guys." Hyunjin says, more normally than his friend. Jisung smiles as they all enter the dance room.
"Hello everyone! Hope you all are filled from lunch. Today is the start of the final week for your project. So please be productive and get as much work done as possible! Have fun and good luck!" Hoseok says smiling.
Felix stands around, a bit too glum to really care about his dance project. He feels a bump on his shoulder.
"Fellow Aussie, you ready to dance?" Felix turns to Chan and puts on a fake smile and nods his head. Chan smiles, suspecting nothing.
"Ok Chan, please tell me you've been practicing." Chan nods his head. "Thank god. Let's run through it then, shall we?" Chan nods again. It was weird, how quiet he was being. Normally he would try and flirt with Felix or annoying him, but either way, Chan was always talking. Felix shrugs it off and turns on the song and the opening starts playing.
Get it lifted
Wha-wha-wha-wha-what?
Fire truck!
Both Chan and Felix start dancing, trying to stay on beat. First up came Felix's solo for the first chorus. He dances his heart out and tries to forget his troubles. In those few seconds Felix forgets everything, the worry, stress, everything. He just dances. When his solo ends, it's time for Chan to come back in and dance with Felix, but he doesn't. Felix bends down, hand on his knees, breathing hard. He looks behind him and quickly pauses the music.
"Chan.." He says, still breathing heavily.
"Chan, hey.."
"Sorry- what?"
"Why didn't you start dancing? Did you forget the call, do you need help remembering the steps?"
"No it's just.." Chan trails off and Felix raises an eyebrow.
"Just what?"
"Uhm nothing...sorry."
"Ok...let's just start from the top." Chan nods and the music starts playing again.
-C H A N-
What-what just happened? This is weird...I mean...What? I don't understand what I'm feeling...God I can't think about this now...
"Chan, hey.."
"Sorry- what?"
"Why didn't you start dancing? Did you forget the call, do you need help remembering the steps?"
"No it's just.." I see Felix give me a weird look.
"Just what?"
"Uhm nothing...sorry."
"Ok...let's just start from the top." I sigh as the music starts again. I'll talk to Hyunjin and Changbin about it later.
•••
"Hyunjin...We need to talk..." Jisung walks up to his new friend as he's at his locker.
"Jisung, uhm sure...what's up?"
"It's about Felix." Hyunjin closes his locker and the two boys start walking down the hall to their next class which they share together.
"I'm guessing he didn't tell you guys, did he?"
"About what?"
"He's leaving at the end of the trimester...and I don't mean changing schools, I mean he's going back to Australia." Jisung says choking up. Hyunjin's eyes widen in shock.
"What? For-for how long?"
"He doesn't know. All he knows is that something happened to his mom.."
"His mom?"
"She's uhm, been in jail for like 7 years now.."
"Oh..oh my god. But he only came here in freshman year right?"
"Yeah.." Hyunjin looks away as they sit down in the back of the classroom.
"Damn. Does Chan know?"
"Doubt it."
"Ok then. Uhm, thanks for telling me, I guess...I'm here if you need anything."
"Thanks but I'm more worried about Minho, I mean, they're cousins and I don't know what he's going to do without Felix around anymore." Jisung runs his hand through his hair in stress.
"Hey calm down, he has you remember? You can be there for Minho."
"Will that even be enough?"
"It will, trust me. Just be there."
"Always." Hyunjin smiles as the teacher walks in and class starts.
•••
Felix is walking into the dance studio after school, his mood sad and gloomy after all the news in the past few days.
"Heya Lixie!" Momo says cheerily.
"Hey Mo..." Felix says dragging his words.
"What's wrong?" Momo gets out from behind the desk and walks over to her younger friend...and that's when Felix breaks down. All the stress and sadness that's been on his shoulders finally fall off as he cries and cries and cries. "Oh my god Felix!" Momo runs to him and brings him back to the 'Staff Only' room. She sits him down in the chair and hugs him as he cries. She whispers soothing words into his ear as he slowly calms himself down.
"Shhhh Felix, it's ok. It's gonna be ok. Do you want to tell me what's wrong?"
And that's exactly what Felix does. He tells her everything he's been feeling and everything that's happened in the past few weeks. It felt nice, to finally be able to tell someone about his problems and all the things that have happened during this short time. Momo just sits and listens, letting him talk. She knew that he wasn't there for answers, he just needed to let everything out. She kept rubbing his back as he talked, nodding her head every now and then.
"...I don't know what I'm going to do back in Sydney Mo, it's all so stressful. I can't handle this right now, especially since it's senior year."
"I understand. But..." Felix looks up at his friend with red eyes.
"But what?"
"For now, let's just dance. Let's dance it all away. What do ya say?" Felix smiles weakly and nods. This is why he loves Momo, because she can seem to solve his problem just like that. He gets up and the two of them walk into the dance room, ready to dance until they faint.
