Work Text:
Felix hummed quietly to himself, his small fingers working on getting beads on a thin wire. His tongue peeked out between his lips, his sparkling eyes full of concentration. Once the wire was filled with many different beads he carefully took two ends, trying to tie them up.
One of the ends slipped from between his fingers, though luckily no pearls fell off. He picked it up again and tied the wire, frowning when the beads got in between. With a soft huff he slowly tried again, whining when it fell from his fingers again.
He picked up the few beads that fell and put them on the thread again, trying his best to tie it up. As his small fingers fiddled with the wire a voice yelled from the kitchen, making him drop the bracelet once again.
"Diner's ready!" Chan yelled, a few voices being heard after him. Felix pouted at the beads that now fell down from the wire, sadly pushing it to the side to clean up later, standing up to head to the living room. He saw most of the group already sitting down and went to Minho, ignoring the plate put up for him at the other side.
"Want to sit on my lap, kitten?" Minho smiled, patting his thighs. Felix nodded and straddles his legs, leaning his head down on the older's shoulder. "Is Lixie feeling okay?" Changbin asked from the side, softly brushing his pointer finger over Felix's cheek. The little hummed in a small tone and nodded, curling up a bit more to feel smaller in Minho's embrace.
Throughout his diner Minho fed Felix, who quietly leaned against his chest, not in his usual talkative mood. It worried the rest a bit, but figuring the boy would probably be tired they brushed it off, though making sure not to forget to ask him about it later.
"Do you need some cuddles, baby boy?" Jisung smiled, gently patting Felix's head as the little finished his diner. "Jus play." Felix mumbled, shaking his head. He got off of Minho's lap after kissing his cheek-his way of thinking for feeding him-going back into his playroom to continue with his bracelets.
He once again started from scratch and carefully made a blue themed bracelet, being extra careful to tie it properly. Once he was able to tie the ends-after quite some struggling again-he smiled and quickly got up, heading to the living room again.
With an excited giggle he held his wrist out, showing the bracelet to Chan. He stopped in front of the male and quickly felt his smile fade when the wires slipped from in between the tight knot he made-which clearly wasn't as tight as he thought it would've been.
Seeing Felix's trembling lips Chan smiled, picking up the beads that had fallen on his lap. "An accident! Accidents happen! I'm sure you can make it again, baby." Chan smiled, though it quickly faltered as he heard a cry come from Felix's lips.
"'s always bad! S'not wanna work!" The little whimpered, turning around and running back to his playroom. Chan frowned sadly and picked up the last beads before standing up, following the younger boy into his room, where he was curled up in the furthest corner. Chan could see seven different, matching bracelets lay on his small table and looked back at the boy, who held his favorite Bbokari stuffie, crying into it.
"Sweet baby, come here." Chan smiled, opening his arms as he sat down on the cushion flooring. Felix peeked up from the stuffie in his hands and hiccuped, before crawling into Chan's lap. "Waned to make supise fo' hyungies but-but doesn't work 'n now supise's not supise 'cuz Channie see it." The little cried, holding on to Chan's shirt.
"How about Channie helps my sweet Lixie to tie them up, hm? I don't know which one is the surprise for me, love, so you can give them to all the hyungies and Channie won't know which one he gets. Does that sound good?" Chan smiled, rocking both his and Felix's body from side to side. The little took a few, shaky breaths before looking up, a hiccup leaving his lips as he nodded.
Chan pressed a big kiss to Felix's forehead and carried him to his table, putting him in his lap again. He looked over the boy's head as he helped him tie all the bracelets up and make sure they wouldn't break again, smiling at the colors and shapes used.
"Channie... Paci?" Felix sniffled, looking up at the older. Chan looked around on the table and quickly saw Felix's pacifier, giving it to the boy. The little looked exhausted from the crying, so he made sure to press a few comforting kisses to his head and rub his cheeks for a bit more comfort.
"All done, baby. Do you want to give them now?" Chan asked, getting a small nod in response. Felix carefully took the bracelets and put four on each arm, getting picked up by Chan, who then brought him to the living room again.
"Everyone downstairs for a minute! It's important!" He yelled through the dorms, as a few minutes later everyone got downstairs and out of whatever room they were in.
"Hey baby, why do you look so sad? Do you need a nap?" Changbin pouted, ruffling Felix's hair. "He had some troubles earlier, he's okay now. Hm, Lixie? Is Lixie okay now?" Chan smiled, looking down at the boy curled up in his lap.
"'f hyungies like supise..." He mumbled behind his pacifier, nodding softly. "Lixie here has a surprise for everyone, so you can all come here one by one. He's a bit too tired to go around right now, hm?" Chan smiled, having everyone sit down in front of the couch.
Felix handed a pink bracelet to Changbin, then a white one to Hyunjin. He leaned over to Jisung and Seungmin and gave each a different shade of brown, before turning around and putting a grey bracelet around his wrist. He gently took Jeongin's wrist and put a very light shade of brown and yellow mixed on his wrist, before giving the last one to Minho, who got a light grey one.
"Look how pretty! Thank you so much, baby!" Seungmin smiled, opening his arms to hug Felix. The boy shyly smiled and giggled, happily receiving a big group hug from all of the members.
"Now, you gave everyone such a beautiful surprise, is it time for a nap, hm? You look tired." Chan smiled, kissing Felix's cheek. The boy rubbed his eyes and nodded, giving each of his members a sloppy kiss on the cheek before getting carried upstairs, getting cuddled to sleep by Chan.
