Then finally our eyes met.
And...
The omega stilled, big doe eyes locked on mine, Blush creeping on his face. He immediately averted his gaze to the floor biting his pouty lips. What happened to this hyung? Why is he shying away from me.
"Hello hyung..."
"Hello jungkookie..."
He waved still studying that loose tile on the floor, tugging tightly on the hem of his sweater, blonde hair covering his warm brown eyes. He looks so cute though, being all shy and adorable.
"Hey... It’s rude talking to someone without looking at them, I'm offended hyung."
I teased him, fake disappointment lacing my voice as i clutched my chest . The reaction was instantaneous. His eyes brimmed with tears, lips trembling, the previous shy smile long gone. Is he really crying? Seriously? He looks so naive and...innocent?... like that.
"I-I'm sorry kookie.. I'm... I mean I didn't mean to be rude..I-"
I rushed to his side lifting his chin to make him look at me, since he has gotten much shorter than me. But instead of the ethereal heart-warming looks i just saw minutes ago i was met with a heart-wrenching sight; watery eyes locked on mine, tears threatening to fall, heart shaped pouty lips quivering. I'm such an idiot. I made him cry, for the first time in my life. Never in all our years together had he cried because of me.
"Hey hey.. look at me hyung. It was just a joke. I was just teasing you. Ok?"
He's so emotional. I didn't mean to make him cry. Heck. He has never acted like this before. He had never cried over a joke. It wasn't even a joke. I don't see the point he's crying over.
In the old days, he used to be quite dominant for a beta. Someone once confused him for an alpha. He rarely cried. He never backed away from a challenge, never got upset over nothing. Saying that I'm utterly bewildered to see this new side of him would be the understatement of the year. This is not taehyung and that's the end of it.
He shook his head, regret reflecting in those gentle tear-filled eyes, those once fierce and wild eyes.
"Bu-but I really didn't mean to disappoint you kookie.. I-I was bad. I'm-"
I cut him off again cupping his cheeks with my hands as i wiped the fallen tears away, i couldn't handle the sight of them. He leaned into my touch, closing eyes. If suga hyung or jin hyung had seen this, I'll be doomed for making their favorite baby cry..
"Shh...shh...don't cry now hyung, ok? You didn't do anything bad. But if you cry like this, I'll feel even worse."
Then boom. The waterworks exploded. Hiccuping and sniffling from time to time, he was practically wailing.
What the fuck did I do? The kim taehyung is crying. I made my hyung cry. And why the fuck is he crying in the first place? Did I say something that wrong or hurtful for him to cry like that? My inner alpha is cussing the hell out of me for making the little omega so upset. And the reminder is enough to make me feel like shit.
"I'm sorry kookie... I'm so sorry...I'll never do that again. Look, now I'm even looking at you in the eye."
He's staring at me as if i were his favorite candy that his parents wouldn't let him get. What's he doing really? He's so submissive. He shouldn't do this. He shouldn't beg me. He shouldn't plead before me like that. That makes my alpha self all weird and craving something I can't figure out yet. And it's all so frustrating that i couldn't hold back my anger any more. Doesn't he have some self respect? Why is he doing this? I retracted my hands from his rosy cheeks.
"Just stop it hyung. What are you? A baby? Stop begging me and crying like a baby. I'm a whole two years younger than you for fuck's sake."
"But- but kookie..."
"Just save it. Be a man hyung. This is not you. What are you even crying over? The answer is nothing. And it's annoying."
With that I left him there standing still as tears silently fell down his reddened cheeks.
If I did something bad, he should have told me instead of crying like a baby and begging helplessly. His sweet scent of honey and lavender overwhelms my senses every time I take a breath. It makes something weird inside me stir. Like something deep inside is about to snap any moment and I don't like that. Not even one bit.
I have never seen him begging anyone like that before, not even our hyungs. That's just not a taehyung thing to do. We thought he'd disappear for just a week to settle his heat and then come back like nothing happened but apparently he decided to disappear once and for all and leave us with this fucking gorgeous omega for a replacement.
He cried over harmless teasing! If it were the old tae instead he'll just say something random that would weirdly enough shut everyone up or he'll retaliate saying I'm cute like bunny or something along those lines just to annoy me. But no, he just had to cry.
My best friend, my partner in crime is nowhere to be seen, and the admission makes me that much angrier.
After the little incident, I retreated to my room and played overwatch. On my own. If I were to join my hyungs, I'll definitely snap at them too in my current mood. Snapping at namjoon hyung is not that much of a good idea.
You know, two alphas in one house is on its own not a very good combination let alone with moody coversations throw in the mix. If something goes wrong, we'll definitely be at each others throats. He might be my hyung, but my inner alpha doesn't care about that. So we both are wise enough to avoid trouble not to scare the shit out the poor betas in the dorm by releasing our pheromones. And oh..of course how could i forget. Now we even have an omega in the house as well. Fucking fantastic.
*********************
I was lying on my bed when jin hyung knocked on my door telling me that food was ready. I was too lazy to get up but I had to, because food comes first.
When I entered the kitchen, everyone was there already, a flowery scent of lavander and honey overpowering the other musky scents in the air. I quickly sat in my place and inhaled the delicious aroma of mac and cheese, not wanting to get a hard on at my best friend's scent.
But something is not right. I looked around me to figure out the source of the akwardness. That's when I noticed the huge gap between taehyung's and my chair. I was confused. I looked at him to find out why. And there he goes again. He's as pale as a sheat, clinging onto jimin's hand like his life depended on it all the while trembling slightly. He didn't even lift his head from his plate, food untouched. Did he just cower away from me? Hyungs keep throwing little worried glances his way too. That's it!
"What are you doing hyung?”
I finally got irritated with his behavior. Even though I asked him in the gentlest of tones, he leant into jimin even more. Fuck. This is bullshit. Jimin glared at me. What's his problem? And why the fuck is tae clinging to him like a baby? Suga hyung gave me an accusing look. The others were eyeing me too.
"What? I didn't do anything. Why are you all looking at me like I'm some kind of psycho?"
I snapped.
"Because when we asked tae why he was sad, he didn't tell us anything but now we can clearly see the culprit, it's you cocky alpha."
Suga hyung spat. Sure, he was scary, but I don't give a shit. If any other beta talked back to me like that, I'll have their head. But he's my hyung. I'm used to his lashings.
"Oh.. come on... I just told him to man up and stop crying. He's a man after all."
I snarled like it's nothing. I was getting angry again. Taehyung covered his ears shutting his big round eyes tightly, long eye lashes covering the top of his cheeks, snuggling further into jimin.
"Tone down your voice jungkook ah, you are making this worse... You can't just say he's a man and snap at him. Look, what you did. He's terrified. He's an omega now. An OMEGA.. Be gentle.."
Namjoon hyung calmly said trying not to push my buttons unlike suga hyung. I took a long breath and calmed myself a bit.
"I fucking don't care hyung. I want my old taetae hyung back. My taetae who fought his own battles, who didn't hesitate to hit me on the head when I needed it. This one is just a crying mess. And this is not my tae."
I pointed at the now shaking omega.
"That was so rude jungkook-ah. You shouldn't talk to him like that."
Jin hyung scolded, clearly disappointed in me. Why can't they see that this is not our tae? This is a fucking stranger.
Then Taehyung suddenly sat up straight wiping tears I didn't realise were there in the first place, his eyes dull, the usual spark in them gone.
"You know, jungkook-ah? I'm right here. Thanks for reminding me to act like a hyung and forgive me I must have really disappointed you. I'll be a good hyung from now on."
With that said he just upped and left. Why is he doing this? What I said was true. He's not my tae. He would never leave like that. He didn't even fight for himself.
"You know what? You are a real prick.."
Jimin also gave me a hateful look and went after tae. If it were any other day, I wouldn't let him get away with offending me like that. But I felt some kind of guilt making taehyung cry for the second time that day. He needs someone to comfort him that's why I let jimin be for now.
"None of you leave the dining table. Tomorrow we have a big schedule. You must eat. I'll go make sure jiminie and tae eat too. Now don't say a word and eat. We'll fix this after dinner. My cooking will not go to waste. And you jungkook, you're so going to apologize after dinner. And No. Don't give me that alpha pride crap again. You're definitely apologizing or so help me god..."
Jin hyung said all that in one breath, throwing his hands everywhere. He's always like that. The mama bird of the house. We silently began to eat again not wanting to hear anymore of jin hyung's ramblings. But I already lost my appetite. My brain on overdrive.
'Bu-but I really didn't mean to disappoint you kookie..'
'He's an omega now.'
'I'll never do that again.'
'I didn't mean to be rude.'
'I'm sorry kookie... I'm so sorry.'
'I'll be a good hyung from now on.'
'He's so submissive.'
Then the realisation hit me. He just submitted to me. I mean verbally. He was accepting everything I said. Earlier, he really must have thought that I was disappointed in him. And that made him cry. He wanted to make it up to me, even though I made him sad.
The little omega submitted to me so easily. Whatever i said, he immediately agreed without even thinking. My pants tightened in seconds at the thought alone. Fuck. This is wrong. I'm straight for fuck's sake. It was in the nature of omegas to submit to their alpha. I'm not his alpha though.. Let's just leave that aside.
And I made that poor omega cry because I was stupidly mourning my old tae. I was stupid. My stupidity didn't let me realize he was still my tae. Jimin is right. I'm a prick. I dropped my cutlery and took long steps towards where jimin and tae headed. Noises erupted from behind me but that's all they were to me right now meaningless noise. Jin hyung's food and the schedule can go to the hell. I have to make things right with tae.
When I neared tae's room I heard faint sobbing. The door was slightly open. I reached for the handle but stilled as I heard my name.
"-miss kookie too. I know he misses old me. But I didn't ask to be an omega either. I can't help but disappoint him further. I-I'm a bad omega jiminie. I made him angry. I feel awful"
The sobbing continued as jimin's soothing words echoed in the room. Now I'm the one who's feeling awful. This must be the feeling of fifty shades of fucked up.
