"Guys...am I the only one not tired? I don't wanna go home yet.."

We all turned our heads and faced Jeongin. We were currently walking down the empty road, on our way home. The only sound being heard was the rustling of the leaves moving from the light breeze, it wasn't chilly but rather refreshing. The road lights were lighting up the path and our heels were clicking and echoed throughout the distance. Vicky wasn't with us, as she said that she had left without us.

What a nice friend.

I was processing Jeongin's words. To be honest, neither was I tired nor I wanted to go home just yet. I was actually enjoying walking with the eight boys, not saying anything, just listening to our silence.

"Mmm..", I hummed in agreement, "it's nice like this. We can walk for a while instead.", I proposed while looking up to the starry night.

"That would be nice actually.", Felix agreed as well.

Speaking of which, Chan's words still echoed in my head from what he told me in the Ferris wheel. I still don't know how to feel, because it's not like I know how Felix feels. Nor do I know for myself actually. I don't know wether I should consider it a crush or it's because he's my bias and I feel that way trowards him. Either way, I'm not important. Felix has a bright future waiting for him and I shouldn't hold him back in any way. If he actually feels something for me, that is.

"And wander around in the dark like some creepy pedophiles?", Minho questioned, raising his eyebrows.

He has a point though.

"Well if you state it like that, it seems weird.", Changbin chuckled.

"Oh.. I might have an idea...", I smirked wickedly as I came up with a thought that may or may not get me in trouble...

"What did your evil mind think of?", Jisung seemed to have the same smirk playing on his lips as mine. Oh how we communicate sometimes.

"Well, I was thinking, maybe, just maybe, we could break into the coffee shop I work. Well not actually break into because I have the keys with me, but you get my point.", I suggested while glancing at all of them to see their reactions.

As I expected, they liked the idea as I saw their eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. I'm just glad that I'm not that weird after all. Because if we get caught, I will be in such trouble. But it will be worth it. Heh.

"Oh hell yes.", Chan was quick to reply. He seemed thrilled. If he gets excited over such simple things then okay. It makes me happy actually.

"And when did you become a bad boy mister? From what I know, you've always been all goody two shoes.", Seungmin mocked him, surprised by his leader's reaction.

Well he ain't lying.

I was surprised as well. As far as I know, Chan's supposed to keep the group in line. But it seems that we are all being deceived right now.

"Oh well, it wouldn't hurt to break the rules here and there.", He smiled cheekily, showing off his cute dimples.

"Breaking news everyone, Bang Christopher Chan decided to get out of his comfort zone, claming that he can break the rules once in a while.", Hyunjin mimicked holding a mic, talking to the invisible cameraman infront of him.

It was the funniest thing that I experienced today and the way Chan got embarrassed made even funnier.

"Changed my mind, we are going straight home.", He muttered, too flustered of the younger mocking him.

"NOOooOo.", Felix tug on his sleeve, trying to change his mind.

"Hyunjin apologize now. I don't wanna go home yet.", he whinned like the kid he is.

It's amusing watching them. The way Felix dragged Hyunjin infront of Chan and made him apologize. And Hyunjin on the other hand, seemed to be really forcing himself to do that. It was hilarious. The rest of us were snickering like crazy but we immediately stopped when Hyunjin gave us a death glare.

"So, shall we go now?"

"YES", all of them said in union.

I grab my bag and started searching up for the keys. When I felt the familiar metallic texture, I immediately pull it off the bag. Carefully, I inlocked the door with slow movements as if there was a possibility that Mrs Emily would be inside. Which was impossible because she left the festival before 11 and it was currently 1am. And to think that I have work tomorrow makes me regret my suggestion.

Once I heard the door unlocking, I opened the door and took a step in the dark building. Turning on the lights, I gestured the boys to come in, as they were carefully watching my every move from the very beginning. They seemed to be hesitating for a moment, maybe because the were basically invading an unfamiliar territory. So Felix was the first one to walk in with confidence, the rest following right behind.

"So that's where you work.", Chan commented, analysing every single corner.

"Yup.", I said while doing the same. It's actually a comfy place to chill out and relax. Soft pastel colours were covering the walls with some frames hanging οn. A smooth wooden floor, soft couches with maroon pillows, that you could basically dive in, delicately sculptured coffee tables decorating the room, along with some plants and big windows. That's the place I worked in and it was like a second home to me. Mrs Emily made me feel that way as she was always so sweet and welcoming to me. She made me feel comfortable around her, so it was easy for me to love this place as well.

"Do you guys wanna nibble on something or get a drink?", I offered right after.

"Mm, some hot chocolate would be nice.", Seungmin ordered.

"Oh oh! And warm milk with cookies!", Jeongin added.

"Is there carrot cake perhaps?", Minho asked.

Boi these guys are hungry.

"C-c-carrot??", Hyunjin stutteted both disgusted and surprised.

I chuckled at his reaction because he looked way too cute.

"You know, it doesn't really taste like carrots. You might end up liking it.", I claimed but he shook his head in disagreement.

Okay boi don't bite jeez.

"You are seriously so weird. How can you not like carrots? They taste really good and they're very good for your health as well.", I defended.

"You sound like my mom.", He muttered with a frown and made the rest of the boys laugh.

"Whatever.", I rolled my eyes and went to put a glass of water to drink, knowing that he was kinda right.

Kinda.

I watch as the boys plopped themselves on the couches and Felix with Changbin fighting over a pillow. I smiled to the sight, thinking that I'll miss them once they leave. I wish that they needn't have to leave. I want to cherish every moment with them and let nothing go to waste.

"What are you thinking about?", Jisung interrupted my thoughts with his sudden question that made me jump, starlted.

He really has to stop doing that. I'll die due to a heart attack for real.

"Oh nothing in particular. Just that... I wish we had more time to spent all together like this.", I tried to hide the bitter-sweet feeling forming inside me. I didn't want to become sad and made the situation awkward.

Jisung seemed to read my eyes and understand every feeling of mine. He forced a sad smile, looking down at me with a comforting yet sad look and he opened his arms, waiting for a hug. I was quick to respond to his request, as a dug myself in his embrace, inhaling his sweet scent. To be honest, I didn't expect him to act like that but sometimes, actions comfort better than words. And right now I needed that hug. He seemed to need it as well as he held me tight. I tried to suppress the tears threatening to fall as I thought that I'll never get to hug them again.

"We will make the best of our remaining time together, I promise you that.", He said once we broke the hug, patting my head softly.

"Okay.", I nodded looking up at him.

"Rosaaa", I suddenly hear Changbin's whines for the distance, "where's the hot chocooo?"

"Coming right up sir!", I chuckled and made my way to the kitchen.

The room was dark once I walked in, so I tried to search for the switch. Once I did, I stepped in further the cold room, starting to prepare the orders. After about what seemed five minutes, I hear the door opening. I was too focused on making the hot drink, that I didn't turn back to face whoever it was. I hear his footsteps getting closer and closer to me, my back facing him. Just then, I feel two arms being wrapped around my waist, as his head rested on my shoulder.

Who-

"Jisung told us. And Chan as well.", his deep voice sent vibrations through my spine.

Hot damn

"Of course they did.", I chuckled dryly as I expected nothing less from them. Though, what bothered me more was the close proximity of Felix and I. His breath tickled my ear and I could literally hear his heart beat. Every time he spoke so near to me and the way that he was holding me, made me feel some type of way.

Felix sighed as his grip around me tightened, as he snuggled more in the crook of my neck. "You know we won't forget you right?", He finally said after a while. His words made my heart sink amd the familiar bitter feeling took over me.

"Yeah I know.", I mumbled sweetly but deep down I wasn't sure whether I should believe him or not. I mean, they'll meet so many other people and as time goes by, they might forget coming here. It's not like we are going to meet again, so it's difficult to remember me.

"You don't seem to believe me though.", his tone was serious. I chose not to reply and continued making the orders. But it was quite difficult with Felix back hugging me like that, preventing me from moving freely. Besides, it's not like if I say anything's going to change my mind.

"Hey, look at me.", he nugged me on the shoulder.

"I'm trying to make the hot choco, I can't right now.", I said as an excuse because if I was to look at him right now, I believe I would break. I don't even know why I'm behaving like that. It was meant to be like this so why am I sulking all of a sudden? I should be grateful that I even met them in person. Let alone accommodate them to my house.

Just I was about to put some marshmallows in the mug, two strong arms forcefully turned me around, making me hit my waist in the kitchen's counter. I was met with two dark orbs, looking intensely at mine. His hands rested on each side of my body, trapping me between his body and the counter.

"Now that you are not making the hot chocolate, pay attention to me when I talk to you." his stare was intimidating as his voice became deeper if possible.

Oh boy

"I am paying attention to you."

"That's not enough for me.", he whispered so low that I didn't understand what he said. "Nice, so tell me, why don't you believe me when I say that we're not going to forget you?", he added loud for me to hear this time.

I sighed deeply, "To be honest, I don't really know. I just feel that you will. You have so many things in mind, why would I be one of them?"

"Because you are important to us. And important things are hard to forget. Would you ever forget a good friend of yours? I don't think so.", He defended, making me understand his point.

"I'm different. I don't have so many things in mind like you guys and definitely I'm not as important as you.", I said back.

"Will you stop saying that you're not important? You are to us, so stop freaking saying that. It makes me mad.", He tried not to yell at me with a very angry expression, as he leaned closer to me.

Okay but, I don't know whether I should be scared or flustered right now. The closure makes my body heat up but on the other hand, his stern voice and expression makes me scared to death.

"Okay fine, but that doesn't mean that I'll stop thinking this way.", I snapped. Who am I? A mere fangirl. And who are they? Every girl's dream. And it's known already.

"I would love to knock some sense into you right now, but you're a girl. I don't hit girls. But that doesn't mean I'll stay still and do nothing about it.", he rolled his eyes, "we are going to tell you every minute of your life that you are important to us, until you believe it yourself.", he scoffed.

"I would love to see that.", I laughed ironically.

"Oh so you don't think we will?", he raised an eyebrow with a smug face.

"Well, you can try. It'll be amusing.", I giggled and tried to free myself from his body that was still caging me.

But he didn't budge, not a single bit. "So you wouldn't believe me if I told you that I love you?"
