Chapter 59
"Jin, are you alright? " Namjoon asked the other as he placed the box of pizza on the kitchen counter. The omega had not said much on the drive home, just requested a box of pizza from a certain restaurant in the middle town. Otherwise he had been silent, seemingly lost in thought. Namjoon wondered what he was thinking about, if perhaps something was bothering him, or if he was stressing over something again.
The omega turned to him flashing a small smile. "Am fine." He stated
"Really, you've been quiet since the hospital. Is something wrong?" Honestly nothing was wrong, Seokjin was still just in shock of what they had found out earlier. He knew it was a big deal he was pregnant, but really having to hear, and see the reality up close confirmed it to him. Oddly he wondered if Namjoon felt the same, if maybe he had those little swirls of butterfly, and if maybe his heart skipped a little with fear at being new at this.
"No, everything is fine," he smiled to himself before looking at the alpha. "It's just...we are really having a little girl." He voiced, the words sounding so real to him now. Namjoon put the plates down on the counter before walking back to him. "It sounds unreal, doesn't it?" Seokjin nodded along.
"Are you scared?" The alpha asked again.
"A little, you? " Seokjin asked back.
Namjoon tilted his head thinking about that, "I guess am scared a little too. I know this is not how we planned it, but it's really happening. We really are having a baby, and despite it being our first time, we need to put on our big boy pants and prepare for it." Namjoon said with a laugh, prompting a huge smile from Seokjin. They had definitely missed being like this, and it made Seokjin think he hadn't been the best these past few weeks. He had been hard on the alpha, and made him sweat a little on it.
He felt like the truth involved him being at fault too, and his smiled flattered a little as he watched Namjoon's brightened face. "Am sorry." He said without warning. He spoke the very words, he didn't want to hear, to the very person he hated to hear it from.
But it was out their now, and he needed to speak out his mind. "I know you think the way I left was really abrupt, I know you think I didn't give you a chance to explain, and just upped and left, with the baby and all. I know you feel like I didn't put much faith in you."
"Jin-" Namjoon wanted to tell him that was in the behind them, that they had gotten over the fighting, and the past was the past, but the omega cut him short.
"I see how you would feel that way. But I want you to know that I could have never done it different. I have never been in the dark like I was, and the decisions I made, good or bad, were based on all my feelings, what led to it, and what the future would be like for me and eventually the baby when I found out, everything else came after it."
Namjoon nodded along, knowing he had no right to feel that way to begin with. "I know you were hurting too, and in the moment, we felt a lot, and said a lot too. Some that we didn't mean to, and am sorry if any of it hurt you." Seokjin said in earnest. He also knew that what Namjoon had gone through with Seulgi that night must have been daunting, especially if he didn't want it. It compared to rape, although most people wouldn't see it that way because the victim was an alpha and often than not he would have a upper hand in things like that, strength wise. And Seokjin was sorry that his alpha had to experience that, not just the ordeal, but the lack of control he must have felt. That did things to a man's ego, and way of thinking.
Namjoon nodded again, not expecting this kind of turn. It felt good to know that Seokjin knew he had been hurting too. "Thank you." He said finally when the omega finished, but Seokjin was not yet done, there was still one more thing he needed to set on record before they could go back to them.
"About Hoseok." He started, seeing the other already making a face. "Namjoon, there is nothing between Hoseok and me, there never wasn't, not even before I met you. He is my best friend and we are really just close. You know that, you've seen it before." Seokjin paused as the other stared him down. He didn't need any more problems in his life, and he hated that one of those was always standing between his best friend and his mate, things needed to be straightened now.
"I cannot stop being friends with him, and I can't erase him from my life either just because you two don't like each other. But, if your not comfortable with the extent of my relationship with him, or you don't like it, am willing to listen, so we can fix it."
Namjoon knew he had a problem with it, he had been holding it for long because neither his mate or Hoseok had given him a reason to doubt the nature of their relationship, that until recently when the beta had started getting on his nerves, but he was getting a chance now to fix it. It honestly surprised him that he was even getting one to begin with.
"I don't like it, I have honestly endured it because he is your best friend, but recently when we were having problems, I felt like he was taking a much larger space in your life, he was slowly becoming more than your best friend, and that bothered me lot. I don't like how he touches you, or kisses you. It maybe harmless, but it still bothers me, because I am your mate, not him."
Just at the thought of it, Namjoon could feel his agitation crawling at him, he didn't particularly hate Hoseok, but he disliked that he was taking a bigger space, a lot like Namjoon if not more in the omega's life. They were not equal, and they were certainly not sharing the man before him. Seokjin belonged with him and him only.
Hoseok needed to stay in his lane.
Seokjin nodded after a bit, trying to see the other's logic. It wouldn't be easy, but he knew he needed to talk to Hoseok because it was crucial if they needed to trust each other fully. "I'll try to talk with him and see how we could fix that." It wasn't what Namjoon wanted to hear, but it was enough to go by now, and he would take it in the mean time. So he nodded is head, "Ok."
"Okay." Seokjin affirmed, hoping the alpha would move before him now, so he could retrieve the box of pizza that was sitting on the other end of the counter because he was hungry. But Namjoon just stared at him instead, eyes were roaming the omega's face. Seokjin couldn't help get conscious under the other's gaze. They hadn't been this close in a while, and he couldn't help think the alpha was seeing him differently.
"What? is there something on my face?" He asked as Namjoon continued to stare. "No, it's just. . .You really are glowing."
"Huh?" The omega's ears and cheeks turned a deep hue while he begged the alpha's pardon. Of course he had heard what the other said, but he just had to confirm it. "I said your glowing, your skin. . .it's really radiant, and your hair, its shiny. You look really beautiful."
For a moment Seokjin thought the other was just trying to flatter him, but he could see how Namjoon's eyes were focused, free of humor or play. Rather he held a soft look, eyes filled with sincerity, and maybe lust?
Seokjin hadn't thought a lot about that, he hadn't thought about intimacy, sex or lust in a while. He had been too busy hurting, stressing of what the future held for them to even think about looking beautiful.
His cheek tingled as Namjoon brought up a hand to caress the side of his face, the back of the alpha's fingers slowly tracing the skin of his jaw. Seokjin fought the urge to close his eyes, even when they drooped with heaviness, and he subconsciously leaned into the alpha's touch.
Love was the language they spoke before all this, they knew how to love best with their bodies, their hands, and their lips. Seokjin couldn't fight it, and he couldn't resist either the shiver that ran down his back as Namjoon moved a couple of stray strands from his face. It was like his signature move, what he would always do whenever he needed the omega, whenever he wanted them with each other.
"I've missed being this close to you, seeing your beautiful eyes, and feeling your soft cheeks." Namjoon said, taking a step closer and cupping a large hand on the omega's face, "I missed caressing your skin, and the sight of your beautiful face." Namjoon other hand cupped the other side of his face, raising his head gently to look at the alpha. "I miss the taste of your luscious lips, and the feel of them against mine." Seokjin couldn't help himself as his said lips parted in earnest, it was like a switch had been flipped inside of him, and every word that the alpha uttered evoked a near reaction from him.
He had missed Namjoon too, he had missed the alpha's hands on him, his body against his, and his lips with his. This past weeks had been hell, and even if he wasn't thinking of being intimate, his body had definitely missed it, it had craved it. They were joined in a bond that needed their constant contact, Seokjin needed the constant contact.
That is why he didn't move when the alpha inched closer, instead he flattered his eyes closed, and waited. And when Namjoon's lips finally touched his he froze. They both froze, savouring the moment, and reminding themselves of what they were, what strong of a bond they shared.
And when they finally started to move their lips, it was fluid, smooth and intended. Like it was the most natural thing on earth. It felt heavenly to finally share something like this, and Seokjin found his lips moving on their own, desperate to match the alpha's. His hands found the alpha's waist as Namjoon pressed their bodies together, and he clung to Namjoon's shirt, lips parting with a tilt of his head.
It would be difficult for Namjoon to ever express how a simple kiss felt to him at the moment. It had been only a couple of weeks, but it felt like they had been apart a life time. He gave the other a second to catch a breath before he dived back in, with his tongue, licking at his teeth and biting at his lips. Seokjin let out a moan as their tongues tangled, he let the alpha have the upper hand, controlling the kiss, and exploring his carven. His hands tightened on the alpha's shirt as another moan ripped from him when the alpha bit at his tongue gently.
It became hungry, with passion and lust, but slow and controlled at the same time. For a minute or more, all they felt and tasted was each other. Bodies pressed together, and thoughts free of everything but themselves.
When they pulled apart, they rested their foreheads together, with heavy breathing and a string of saliva still connecting them. "I missed that." Namjoon said finally with a smile, wiping at the other's lips, who still had his eyes closed.
Seokjin didn't say a lot in return, still catching his breath. That was amazing, he felt like his hunger from earlier had been satiated. "Let's have some food, yeah?" Seokjin let go of the alpha's shirt, still dazed, he sat in a stool, accepting the box of pizza moved his way. His face turned a deep red as he caught sight of of the smirking alpha. He couldn't believe at this time he would still be a blushing mess from a mere kiss from his alpha.
"I don't know if it's early or not, but I think we should start preparation for the little one. With the room and all. What do you think?" Namjoon asked taking a seat beside him. A smile made its way to Seokjin face, he didn't think it was early at all, he was really excited for the next months before the baby arrived, because they would be preparing, and he would be doing it with Namjoon above all.
"I think it's perfect, we should start soon." He replied, "And some furniture shopping too. Seeing as we don't have a living room anymore." He looked at Namjoon who just scratched the back of his head sheepishly "Yeah...that. We should do that too." Seokjin wasn't even mad, the past was behind them now, it might have just been a day down the line, but he was determined to start a fresh.
"Are you gonna go back to work?" Seokjin asked, he couldn't hide the disappointment in his tone, he knew it would be inevitable, but still he wanted the alpha with him. "Not entirely, I will still work from home when I can, and be in the office when I have to." Namjoon smiled to reassure the other, he didn't want to leave for long hours of work either. But the company was their livelihood, their future and that of their kids.
"Don't worry ok, I'll be here with you always." Seokjin only nodded eating his food, things were slowly falling back into their places, they were finally going back into their normal lives, being open and accommodating. The only thing they had not talked about was Seulgi, and Seokjin honestly only remembered because they brought up the issue of work.
"And Seulgi what happens to her now?" Namjoon stopped at the mention of that woman, his jaw tightening at the thought alone. He had thought of a million things he wanted to do to that woman. On his highest peaks of rage he had thought about how he wanted to make her suffer.
"She is hiding out in Japan. I had Jackson look into it for me. I know where she is now." Seokjin waited, knowing the other still had a lot to say. "I am not going to seek her. I am going to take the most important thing from her like she did from me." It wasn't revenge, just logic, and Namjoon was going to make sure it didn't bite him back.
"Am taking her company from her. As we speak her shares are now mine. If she wants them back she will have to to face me." Namjoon growled. He had been busy these past weeks, not only looking for a way back to their lives, but also planning hell for that woman.
"What happens then. What happens if she faces you." Seokjin couldn't help ask, he could see the malice in the alpha's eyes, it was something dark, and it honestly scared him because it could have been anything bad, ranging to taking a life.
"She apologises to you first, then. . ." Seokjin watched as his alpha paused, his eyes boring into his. He didn't think the alpha could speak the thoughts he had out loud. "I want to make her suffer Jin, but I think you should decide. She hurt you more, and you would be more rational than me."
It was the right choice, and Seokjin nodded, placing a hand over the alpha's to cool him down. Namjoon brought him closer, smashing their lips together, to rid himself of his thoughts. Seokjin let him, kissing him back to let him know he agreed with him.
