I had to do it today. Felix ignoring me and thinking I hated him wasn't bearable anymore. He didn't deserve this.

It was already pretty late, and we were done eating dinner. Today was Saturday and Mrs Choi said there would be a huge basket of candy in the main entrance for us. We were only allowed to take one candy bar and one lollipop each.

I had an idea in mind. I would try my best to steal two chocolate bars and two lollipops. You might see where im going with this. I'd give one to Felix obviously. Probably a pretty dumb and cheesy idea but i had to try you know. Maybe it would help with getting forgiveness? I'd be pretty happy if someone stole candy for me.

And so i did. I went over to the basket and sneaked two twix bars in my sleeve. I wasn't sure what flavor lollipop Felix would like, but I took a pink one. I felt like it matched him well.

I then kept his candy in my pockets while i was outside with the boys. I would give it to him when we were both alone in our room.

Actually, I was pretty excited to give them to him. I'm not sure why.

I kept checking if they were still in my pocket every other minute.

It was finally time to try again.

I was walking through the corridor on my way to me and Lix's room.

It was late, and most people were going to their rooms by this time. I was walking pretty quickly. I was both excited and nervous.

As soon as I opened the door to our room I was caught by surprise.

"I wasn't expecting you to be here already" I said.

I smiled a bit, trying to lighten the mood once again.

He was in his bed removing his makeup.

I went over to my bed and sat down.

«Why aren't you in the bathroom? You don't usually remove your makeover here right?" I asked him, still trying to sound as nice as possible.

"Why do you care" Felix mumbled

Ouch

I cleared my throat and stood up. I reached my hand in my pocket and fished out the candy I got him.

"I got you this" I said, and took a step closer to him.

He looked up at me suprised. I held the candy in front of him. My hands were a tad shaky, but I tried my best keeping them still.

He looked at the candy, and then at me.

"I felt bad for earlier, and I knew you liked Twix" I said

He looked confused.

"Take it" I reminded him

Once he finally took the candy out of my hands, we made eye contact, and held it for quite a while.

His eyes were lit up again. Just like they were when we first started being friends.

I never noticed his eyes were so.. cool.?

Right under his shiny big eyes were a starry sky of freckles. Something about him looked different.

"Okay" He said

I stood there for a second until I sat back down on my bed.

I really wanted to say something. After all, I was trying to apologize to him. Apologizing isn't just giving someone stolen candy and staying silent.

But I couldn't. I was distracted and forgot everything. He was looking at me confused, but he wasn't mad.

"Are you done getting ready or can I use the bathroom now?" I asked him

"I'm done" he said

As I was washing my face and brushing my teeth I kept thinking. I really hope Felix appreciated it. Candy isn't much, but I was hoping that he at least would eat it.

The first thing I saw when I was out of the bathroom fulfilled my little wish. Felix was under his blanket with the lollipop in his mouth. Trust me I was trying my hardest not to smile like an idiot.

He wasn't saying anything. He just lied there with one of his cheeks poked out, and a white stick out his lips.

His eyes were closed, and he was probably going to sleep. Hopefully he'd finish the lollipop first.

He looked so different. So cute.
