NO ONE


They finally reached the destination. Its a bit of a forest area which a lot of school activities has been done here.


When all the students gather around outside the bus. Mrs. Yoon start giving instructions. All the student were given one whistle each. And they started to moving in the forest.


Mrs. Yoon and a few of other teacher walking at the front and all the students walking in teams.


Hyunjin's team happen to walk at the very back.


They started with a few plants.  Unique plants are planted here which is draws Hyunjin's attentions.


All the students were amazed by the new knowledge they are about to gain from this forest.


While focusing on plants, Felix stumble a bit making him automatically grabbed on Hyunjin's jacket. Hyunjin noticed it and immediately grab on Felix to help him balance.


"Walk closer so that I'll keep you in my eyes." Hyunjin said before he gave his full attention on taking pictures of the forest.


Felix's chest start to race fast. The way Hyunjin warned him with a sharp eyes making Felix won't be able to control his feelings. He blushed hard.


Han who noticed just giggles alone. "Yah, control your hormones or Hyunjin will noticed your red face." He wishpered.


Felix eyes widen to what Han's said.


Then the three of them focused on the mission after that. Once again, Felix stumble, this time he almost fall on his face but Han and Hyunjin manage to grab him.


"What a clumsy kitty you are!" Mumble Han while shaking his head.


"Hold me, so you wont be stumble again." Hyunjin said while holding Felix hand.


This time, Felix just cant even focused on missions anymore. His attention was on their hands.


Not gonna lie, Hyunjin also can feel his heart beats not like usual this time.


"So romantic!" Shouted Lia, one of their student up from the front.


"Yeah, right? They're so cute together!" Said Han while mimicking Lia's reaction. Then he glance at the two, rolling his eyes.


Hyunjin did not give a damn but Felix is already dying inside. His soul has left his body at this point.


After half an hour of walking, Mrs. Yoon blow the whistle as a sign for students to gather close around her.


"Okay, class. We have one hour before 6 pm.  So, before its dark, lets set up a tent here. We're going to spend the night here since this is the most empty place we've found so far. After you are done with your tent, you are allowed to shower at the river down there. Girls before boys. Got it? Move now."


After Mrs. Yoon finish with her instructions, all the students getting ready to stand the tents.


Its goes smoothly for everyone but not with Hyunjin's team.


"Yah? How do we do this?" Hyunjin just stared at the components for a tent with too much pressured now.


"This is what a son of a rich people cant do. Setting up a tent." Mocked Han.


Felix just laugh while Hyunjin is frustrated.


"This is the first step, dude." Said Han while making a demonstration like a pro.


First, Felix help Han laying out the ground tarp with the shiny side facing up. Then they lay the body of the tent on top of the ground tarp.


"Jinnie, can you help with the tent poles?" Ask Han.


Hyunjin who is still confused as heck just stared at the long thing.


"This thing?"


"Yes, that one! Assembles them together. Its should just easily stick up with each other." Said Han.


"Ah? I.. will try.." said Hyunjin hesitantly.


Felix feels like he wants to hug Hyunjin so bad with too much of cuteness he needs to handle. But he restrain himself from that feeling.


"Felix you can attach the poles with the body, right?" Ask Han again.


Felix just nods. "Yeah, of course!" Felix happily help the team. Han also went to the next step after each.


Finally they manage to set the tent up without any difficulty. Hyunjin let out a long sigh, looking like he is the most tired one there.


"Aigoo.. its pretty tiring.." Hyunjin whiny like a baby.


"What? You only help with one thing and you are the most tired one?" Han babbling at Hyunjin. Is done with his friend's behaviour.


"Hanie.. your behaviour is so.. ugh!!" He shouted in english at Han.


Han just stick his tongue out. Wanting to tease Hyunjin but Hyunjin is just too tired to fight him back so he just let him be.


"Yah, Hanie.. how can you know a lot about this?" Felix asked.


"Uhmm.. its a secret!!" Said Han.


"Probably from Minho hyung." Said Hyunjin while lying down inside the tent.


"Yah! How did you know?" Han feel triggered.


"Secret!"  Hyunjin replied.


"Whatever! Felix lets go."


"Where?"


"Mrs. Yoon said we can take a bath at the river, right? Lets go. Its not like we can always be around river when we get home." Said Han while taking out a few of his bathing stuff.


Felix start to remember something. He cant take a bath, if he takes a bath his whole body will starts to glittered, its probably okay if he was at home  but now it can be dangerous if he join Han. They will probably find out about his identity.


"No, I dont like river. You can go with Hyunjin."


"What? Seriously?! You are always mysterious, lixie. Fine! Hyunjin lets go!"


"Wait," Hyunjin lazily stood up bringing his shirts and toiletries.


"Are you sure you wont join us?" Hyunjin ask to make sure.


Felix just shakes his head, even though his body feel really uncomfortable due to a lot of sweating from walking through the forest. But what can he do, he has taboos to follow.


Then Lia and her group walk towards Felix who is just chilling, appreciating nature around him.


"Hey, Felix!" Greet her, happy.


"Oh, hi? Y-yes?" Felix stutter since he is not used to talk to someone he doesnt know yet.


"Hi, my name is Lia. This is my friends, Yeji, Mia and Eunbin." She said while introducing her friends.


"Oh.. h-hi.. I'm Felix." Felix just awkwardly smiled. He just realized that they are the same people who ask him for a selfie that day.


"We already know you. You are so popular among girls at our school." Said Yeji.


"I know right? But Felix we would like to tell you that we are the presidents of Hyunjin's fanclub." Said Mia.


Felix just smiled. He is not sure why they are telling this to him though.


"We noticed how much interest you put on our prince. We can help you to get him." This time Eunbin speak up.


Felix starts to panicked. How would they know about his feelings towards Hyunjin?


"But, if you really like Hyunjin.. you need to join the fanclub first. And.." Lia hesitates to finish her lines.


"And get in the line. Just so you know, many are waiting for a chance to going out with Hyunjin in our fanclub." Yeji continue Lia's word.


"Yes. But in this club, you cant make a move on Hyunjin before discuss with us first. Because we dont want to take a risk of so many broken hearts after that. How about it, Felix?" Said Eunbin.


Felix could sense something is not right about these girls.


"I'm sorry. But I'm not interested with your fanclub. Hyunjin is my friend, why would I bother to get in the line just to go out with him?" Felix lift up his eyebrows.


"But we thought, you are a fan of him?" Ask Eunbin.


"Even if I'm a fan of him, I dont need your help. Thank you so much for your offer but I'm really sorry. I'm not the type of person who fangirling over something that wasnt mine." He said before leaving them in pissed.


The girls just groaned loudly.


"How could he turned down our help?" Lia holding in her anger.


"Calm down, guys. We cant force him, maybe he has his own ways." Said Yeji, tried to calm her members down.


"What with you, Yeji? Which side are you?" Scold Mia.


Yeji just stay silent.

(8 p.m)


LIA


After dinner, Mrs. Yoon reminds the students to sleep early because we're going to start walking again at 7 am tomorrow.


All the students went to their's team's tents.


I lay down beside Yeji. "Hey, Yeji. What should we do to the new kid?"


Yeji who is already closing her eyes just hummed, means that she is not understand on what I mean.


"I meant Felix, that new boy. He really offended me today. We need to give him a lesson." I said, clasping my hand. Pissed of.


"Dont bother him, he is Hyunjin's friend and Hyunjin is my friend. If you did something to Felix, Hyunjin will hate me." Yeji said, still dont bother to open her eyes.


I fidgeting my teeth. "Geez, Yeji. Are you saying that you want to turn your back on our team now?"


"No. Are you crazy? I'm not meant to do that, just.. leave him alone. You dont know what happen if you messed up with Hwang Hyunjin."


She glares at me like giving me a warning. But do I care? I dont even care anymore.. I'm so hurt with Felix now.


"Screw you. I will do what I want."


"Dont blame me if Hyunjin did something to you because of that boy."


She warned me again. I went outside the tent to cool myself down. The teachers are still up too.


But they dont see me, because they are so busy discussing.


Oh! I just remember I left my jacket near the river. Its 11 pm. Still early, gotta go and take it now.


There is my jacket! I took it with me and start to walk back to the tent but..


Suddenly I saw someone near the river. He looks like just finish bathing.


I wonder who he is, since all the students are already in their tent by this time. I took a peek and I saw something strange on his body.


Yup! His body is glittering like there's diamonds all over his body. What the hacking heck I just saw right now?!?!


Wait what- F.. Fe- Felix?!


But before I can even call him out he is already walk back to his tent leaving me. I am completely feeling suspicious now.


What just happened? What..?! What did I just saw?... Was it a real thing or my eyes just trying to deceive me? If it real then...


I think...


I have a good show for the whole school tomorrow....


I need to find out more about him first.


A smirk flashed on face, since my brain start to have a good idea.


____________


FELIX


Fuhh, I feel fresh. River water are really the best therapy ever!


I'm just done with my bath. Luckily when I sneaked out from the tent, the teachers didnt saw me.


I dried my hair with my towel and puts on my shirts. Fully ready to go back to the tents now.


Once I reached there, I get in our tent amd Hyunjin and Han is not sleeping yet. Gosh! Why wouldn't they sleep yet?


"I think our friend just took a refreshing shower a few seconds ago." Said Han.


I know who he is referring to. Its me obviously.


"Yeah, and he literally said he doesnt like river." Hyunjin also join Han to mocks me.


I just awkwardly smiled at them. Please, I dont know how to respond.


"But it strange, if you like river why bother to sneaked out at night?" Hyunjin throw a question.


I am nervous sweating now.


"Yeah, you are right. Felix, you could just join us earlier? Its safer rather than go there alone at night." Added Han.


Secret.. secret was supposed to be hidden. Thats why I cant tell you both about it. Please dont ask more! And go to sleep!!


Its almost Twelve and I am more worried now as time flickered by.


If they dont sleep now then I will probably turned into a cat in front of them and that would be the dead of me.


"Felix... We ask you a question?" Hyunjin interrupt my thoughts.


I turned to him.


"I.. just- no, I dont like having people around me when I'm showering. Its embarrassing." I hope my answer would end their questions.


"Embarrassed? Hah, you're funny Felix. There are all males that time, why would you feel shy?" Han laughing hard looking at me.


"Han stop, maybe we dont know what happened to one's past life. It would be something like traumas or phobias. You're studying about humanity, right? So I dont need to explain anything to you."


Thanks Hyunjin, you saved me from my panic.


"Uh oh.. uhmm, Felix. I'm sorry for laughing. I was just joking around." Said Han. Looking so sad now.


Aww... Please dont be sad.


"No. I'm fine, Hanie. But what Hyunjin said its true. I need some privacy." I said to assured Han.


"Okay, Felix. Since you're already said that, at least I understand you now. But please can we sleep now? I'm sleepy." Han starts to yawn.


"Yes. We should sleep now." I said.


"Good night guys!! Love you~" Said Han.


"Love you too~ goodnight, Lix. Goodnight, Han."


One hour passes, and I've already feel itchy all over my body.


They both then fast asleep. Letting out a soft snores.


I should think of a way how to sneaked out from this tent without them noticing it.


Gosh, why is it so complicated? 


Okay.. I got this... If you think its easy then it is.


I slowly zipped out the tent, slowly putting my head out watching on the teachers who was guarding outside the students tents.


After the line is clear, I get up but someone grabbing my hand.


Gosh!! I take a look and its Hyunjin.


"Hey, where are you going?" He asked while rubbing his eyes.


Why are you awake, Hyunjin ah???


"Uhmm.. I need to .. I need to pee! Yes. I need to pee. Go to sleep, okay."


"Lets go together then." He said.


Are you crazy?! I was trying hard to go alone and you're saying this?!


"No, its okay. I will go with the teacher. You.. go to sleep okay?" I said while taking my way fast from there.


I run as fast as I can far from the tent because I can feel that my body is getting the symptoms of me going to be a cat.


But I run so fast I think I trip and hurt my right leg. Its bleeding...


I try to get up but my leg couldn't support my weight,


I collapsed there. Hurting.
