04 - Late Nights & Lectures

    She was flustered by Felix's shock. "Let's bake the brownies now."

    Immediately distracted by the brownies, the two made enough brownies to last the week. (At least, after they ruined and burned two week's worth of brownies and cookies.)

But Lee Know's gun was on her mind until the moment they went back to bed.

🕸🕸🕷🕸🕸

In the morning, she woke up finally feeling at home. But when she went past Felix's room, she heard a voice lecturing him. She paused, eavesdropping.

"–you two alone!" Lee Know said angrily.

Yun knocked on the door, making a tense silence follow. Lee Know opened the door with a bitter expression on his face.

"You. Sit down."

She stepped past him without a word and glanced at Felix. The poor guy had tears in his eyes and a shameful look on his face.

She sat down beside Felix and quickly poked him. He looked at her with a pout and a red nose. She turned her head to look at the man who did this.

"What's up, Lee Know?" Yun asked, glaring.

He raised a brow. "Why were you two awake at night together without telling anybody?"

"Minho, we were just making brownies!" Felix interjected.

"I don't care about what you were doing. I want you two to stay apart for the rest of this week. We can't have anybody becoming a distraction."

She spoke up angrily. "We're not going to be distractions–!"

"Be quiet. I recruited you, and I can definitely choose to let you be kicked out."

She immediately closed her mouth. She would not risk being kicked out over baking with Felix. She glanced at him. They were wondering the same question. Why was Lee Know being such an asshole?

They were all silent until Lee Know cleared his throat. "You're dismissed," he stated.

Yun left the room and slammed the door. He sighed.

"I just don't want anybody crushing on each other, with a job this dangerous. Felix, don't be mad."

Felix frowned. "Yeah, I understand." Something was off with Lee Know. He felt like Lee Know was jealous, but that was impossible. He couldn't read Lee Know before, and he still couldn't now. He shrugged it off.

"Okay, Minho. It's okay. But I can still talk to Yun right?"

Lee Know sighed again. "Yeah. I was being petty with that." He left, and a minute later, Yun showed up with her arms crossed and a fire blazing in her eyes.

She sat down next to him in a huff. "I can't believe he was yelling at two murderers in a gang that they couldn't bake brownies at night with each other!"

He put an arm around and she laid her head on his shoulder. "It's okay, Yun. We can still talk, since he wasn't serious about avoiding each other for a week."

She rolled her eyes. "We shouldn't need fucking permission to talk. I would continue talking to you anyway, because you're the person I trust the most here."

Felix's eyes sparkled and he gave her a blinding smile. His eyes wrinkled with happiness. "Really! I trust you, too!"

She couldn't help it – she laughed. He was the cutest member in her eyes. "You're adorable."

He flushed with pride and twiddled his fingers. "Thank you. Let's stay good friends. One day, maybe you can even stand up to Minho without losing your position."

"Mmm, sounds good to me. That's the goal, Lix."

"Lix?"

"It's a cute nickname just for you."

"You make me feel like a little kid compared to you," he grumbled, but she could tell he enjoyed being treated like this.

She squeezed his cheek. "Who's a little Lixie~?" she cooed jokingly.

He shoved her away and stuck out his tongue. "Not me!" A short bell rang, meaning Seungmin was calling them for breakfast. He gave her a hand. "C'mon, Yunnie-baby."

    "Idiot, remember I'm older than you," she laughed, as she took his hand. Lee Know's lecture still upsetted her, but Felix made her feel much better. "Let's eat."
