Taehyung sat on the bench on the other side of the street, leg bouncing up and down in fear. He was hoping what he was thinking was not true, and it wouldn't be his reality soon. Guess he was about to find out. He watched as his boyfriend walked out of the very door he feared he would.

Taehyung sucked in a breath picking his phone and calling him. He watched as the other looked around before answering. Taehyung was in plain sight, maybe that was why the alpha couldn't see him, or maybe he wasn't just looking for him at all.

"Tae...."

"Hey kook, where are you at?" The beta questioned timidly. "Ummm, I- I was out a little, but am going back home now." He answered, Taehyung hummed gripping his phone tighter.
"I was actually hoping I would talk to you about something important, are you free, can you come over to the apartment?" Taehyung was quite for a bit, he could feel the reality he dreaded catching up to him. He nodded like the other could see him, before confirming verbally and hanging up.

His mind ran to all the possibilities that could come out of it, and he spend a good half hour over thinking it, before he picked himself up and went to Jungkook's. When he got there the younger was on the couch, a hand over his face, covering his eyes.

"Tae, come sit here." The younger patted the couch beside him. Taehyung walking to him. He put on a smile trying to feign a brave face. "What's going on?"

The alpha audibly sucked in a breath "A lot, tae.....I have a lot of things I want to tell you." Their heart beats mirrored each other, both beating hard for almost the same reason. "Am listening."

"Will you listen to me till the end before you can ask anything?" Jungkook asked taking the others hand into his. He sounded a little desperate, and Taehyung clamped his jaw, before nodding.

"First of all, I got accepted by the company I auditioned for, they are letting me train from next month, so this affects my college application too, I might not be able to join at the same time with you.....or at all.

Am sure you have also noticed the growing space between us, I would like to blame it on a lot of things including you, but I think I am just as to fault. I love you tae, I have not had a doubt about that since I said those words to you, but after we moved in together I felt like we spiraled. I waited for you to show me, to say to me how you felt, but you never did. Day after day you only manifested more fears which didn't explain why you wouldn't personally tell me what you felt for me, and when you did I felt like it was because I forced it on you. Till now I don't know how you really feel about me, am still in the dark." Jungkook could feel how limp and cold the others hand had gone, but he wasn't done.

"I felt lost during that time, I couldn't even speak to you. And I found myself just wandering, hanging out with some crowds and conversing with different people. One of them is a stripper from this male strip club. I found myself there alone with him once, I didn't know what exactly I was looking for in a place like that, but he listened to me.....he more than listened to me. We did do a lot of things actually.......we touched, well he touched me, and did other things too, and I know it wasn't right tae, and am sorry.....I don't know exactly what I was thinking.... I just." The alpha said out of words and out of breath too. There wasn't a way to put this lightly.

"Am not saying this to downplay my mistake, because I know I let him, and I continued to go there, even today. Am telling you because I can see a little clearly now, I recognise my mistakes and I want to redeem myself." Jungkook said firmly, his own tears threatened to fall from his eyes as he saw the beta breathing deeply.

It was quiet between them for a bit, jungkook worried about what the other was thinking, while Taehyung tried to arrange his thoughts. He started with the most important one "What exactly did you do with him......did you.. Did you sleep together? What was it."

"We didn't sleep together, only touched, at times with some of my clothes off, and dancing and stripping. But that's it." Jungkook knew if he continued to go to jimin, he would be taking off more than his shirt, but he had shown someone else himself regardless and it was wrong. He could tell his boyfriend was hurt just from his eyes.

"When did you get the acceptance from the company, and when were you going to tell me?" The beta's voice was calm as he talked, contrary to the emotions he felt inside.

"I got it almost a month ago, when we were talking about the college applications, I wanted to tell you then, but we still had a lot going on and I feared I would overwhelm you." The first tear escaped Taehyung as jungkook spoke. The younger had always been mature than him, hell he was too mature for his age too.

"You still could have told me kook, you know how excited I was to be doing it with you, you let me fool myself all this while......" A sob choked him as he spoke, and he removed his hands from Jungkook's standing up.
"....I know I have struggled a lot with my feelings for you, I know how bad you must have felt all those times that I didn't reciprocate your affection. I know it must have felt one sided to be with me, but you promised me you understood, you knew where I was coming from, you knew why I couldn't make those attachments easily, yet you just went behind my back and did all that, you hid everything from me jungkook, going to strip clubs? I thought those places gave you anxiety, and you hated them...." He breathed as he stood, rubbing his hands on his face. "....When I told you I loved you I meant it, I didn't tell you because you pressured me, or because I felt pressured, I didn't tell you because I wanted to please you or make you feel better either. I had come a long way with that, and I knew the moment I spoke it I meant it. I thought you felt that." He whispered the last part defeatedly.

"Am so sorry tae..." Jungkook wanted to add more, he wanted to sooth the other, but he didn't know how to even begin. He watched as the beta ran his hands in his hair, tears streaming down his face, his eyes laced with hurt. "I need to think jungkook, about this, about us." He said finally. "I don't know how long it migh-"

"I want to break up." Jungkook blurted out surprising Taehyung. The older turned his head slowly asking with eyes. "I want us to break up." Jungkook added not able to contain his tears. If Taehyung wasn't hurt before he was definitely now.

"I haven't thought about it, and I know if I do I won't be able to do it. But I have hurt you tae, am not good for you, and also....the company doesn't allow any relationship. I could be sent away if they find out." Jungkook forced out now stood with taehyung.

The beta didn't answer as he took his jacket and left the apartment, even when jungkook called after him.

"That was fire, Mrs kwon looked satisfied with you today." Namjoon commented as he walked to the omega on the other side of the table, the other arranging his papers. "Thank you." The omega smiled, the project he was trying to revive was up and running on his feet. He had impressed a lot with the reports today.

"Let me treat you off to lunch." Namjoon suggested when everyone had gone out of the board room except for Wendy who was on her phone talking on the other side of the room. "I would like that very much mister." Seokjin said zipping up his bag of documents. He turned around only for Namjoon to wrap a hand around his waist. "We are still at work joon-ah" he said when the alpha tried to dive in for a kiss. The door was made of glass, three quarters of it was opaque, the other part just transparent glass. If someone tried really hard they could get a glimpse.

Rumors had started to fly around about him and Namjoon, and when no one said anything, he could tell they were thinking it. Especially now that he had eased off his concealers. A couple of people now could tell he was an omega, which of course spread in the office. It wasn't as bad as he thought it would be, although a few judging stares were present.

He was sure he would get a lot more of those if they confirmed his and Namjoon's relationship. They were only speculations now and honestly seokjin didn't care if they found out fully. He couldn't hide forever, besides, maybe it was time to break to them that the hot kind CEO was taken.

"Fuck work." Namjoon grumbled as he pulled the omega closer and finally got his kiss. The alpha had gotten a lot clingier after his heat, which lasted three days. He had shown the man a side of that even he wasn't used to. And now Namjoon wouldn't let him live down any moment of it.

He would tease him every time. 'I want to wake up to you blowing me again, do that thing you do with your hips I like, let's do it on the balcony again.' Namjoon wouldn't stop bugging him with it. Seokjin would blush and shoo him away, the alpha only laughing.

"Stoooop." He said as namjoon tried his neck. The alpha was happier now that he was off concealers. His new favourite place when they were at work was his neck. "Let's just go for lunch, we got plenty of time after work....I'll do that thing you like." He whispered in his ears before winking and moving from him

"Fuck, your such a damn tease, let's go, I already can't wait for tonight." He said.

"Actually you might want to think about that." Wendy said stopping them eyes trained on her phone.
"Don't start." Namjoon warned, not ready for anything apart from lunch.
"Miss Seulgi is here." She announced finally looking at them. "What, the meeting is not until three, and the venue is not even here."

"Well she is here, waiting, what do you want me to do?" Wendy was getting tired of the intruding nature of that woman, this was the third time she had to cancel something between the couple because of Seulgi, and she could see the disappointment on Seokjin eyes already. "Can't we just wait till three, or tell her am not around?"

"We could have if she wasn't already here, she seems to know your in the office." Namjoon knew it would look bad if she made her wait, she was the top investor, she was important to them right now. So he turned to the omega beside him who had not uttered anything. But seokjin didn't allow him to get any word in

"Go, its important, it won't look good if you make her wait." He urged with a small smile. Namjoon kissed his cheeks. "Let's have dinner instead yeah?"

"OK, just text me when your done." Namjoon kissed him one more time before they left the room. Wendy giving him an apologetic look as he walked to his office. He shut the door, breathing deeply when he was finally alone. He didn't want to complain, but he hated when that happened, this project LILY and this seulgi lady who he was yet to meet was taking a bit than he liked from his and Namjoon's time.

He sighed moving to his desk for a bottle of water but realised his batch was empty. He contemplated asking his secretary to bring some more but figured she must have left for lunch already. So he opened his door moving to hoseok's office to ask for a bottle, but the beta was on his phone, so he just gestured to which the younger shook his head in a No.

He moved to the lounge to retrieve a batch, mindlessly opening the door and walking in. Namjoon stood near the couch by the wall. A woman with her hair in a tight bun stood beside him. She was in one of those Chinese tight dresses, the ornaments on her bun matching her dress skillfully. Seokjin let his eyes roam her, her shapely curves, all the way to her nicely make up face, and to the hand she had on his mate's shoulder.

They finally made eye contact and Seokjin walked inside in apology. "Am sorry, I didn't think anyone was in here."

"That's all right, Seulgi, this is Kim Seokjin, the marketing director, Seokjin this is Kang Seulgi." Namjoon introduced, finally moving out of the woman's hold. "Miss." The omega greeted before shaking her hand.

She took it firmly, eyes scrutinizing the man before him, she could smell him, and she raised a brow recognizing that scent on Namjoon. She put on a smile, "Nice to meet you Seokjin."

"Pleasure is mine miss." Seokjin said. He could feel the aura she emitted, it was of elegance, and power. Seokjin could tell she was a beta, a very dominant one, and he resisted scrunching his nose at her scent. It was weirdly of ceder, and a mix of what seemed to be mangoes or something. It irritated his nose and he moved slightly back.

"I didn't mean to interrupt you two, forgive me, I was just coming for some water, if you don't mind I'll just take some."

"Please do." The lady replied, moving to Namjoon's side and making way for the omega. Seokjin only smiled, not missing the way she squeezed herself to the alphas side like their wasn't any more space in the room.

He picked two batches; one for himself and another for hoseok. He couldn't resist looking back at the two. The woman back to conversing with Namjoon, even in her heels she still looked up at the alpha, a smile plastered on her face and her hand back to Namjoon's shoulder, almost cupping his neck.

He whispered 'what the fuck' to himself as he left, ignoring the alpha who tried to throw him a glance. He didn't know the two would there, he assumed they must have left already.
Although he couldn't forget the look Seulgi gave him, it was one of realization, sort of, before her brows raised, and her eyes harden at him. Seokjin didn't like any of it.

He could have sworn it was a dirty look, a little sinister too, and that hand on Namjoon, seriously, what was up with that. He didn't want to assume so much about their investor, so he just placed his water in his office, Giving one to hoseok after "Have lunch with me, my treat." He said to the beta as he placed the bag of water down.

"Thank you, I thought you were having lunch with Namjoon."

"It was dinner, now let's go." He lied pulling on the other. Hoseok rambled on about this restaurant he wanted to try out. While he.....well he couldn't help his eyes as they followed the two people walking to the brightly painted car in the shade.

He tried not to think much as they got into hoseok's car and drove the opposite direction.
