❝ji, i can walk.❞ chenle said with a pout, being forced to hop on behind the pure blooded's back as they finally decided to go back after dealing with the younger's cycle.

jisung said that he still had another day left to handle it but with the omega around him, he'll be fine. although, he did warn the smaller that he's going to get overprotective and possessive. that statement made chenle roll his eyes, since when was he not all that? ❝sure, i saw you come out of the bathroom a while ago having legs of a noodle.❞

❝t-that's because!❞ actually, he had no way out of it. even after that very first day of helping the pure blooded, it didn't end there. what changed though was how jisung achieved in taking control over his alpha.

that means, he handled chenle gently during the times they had done it.

but if he did handle him gently and carefully like a glass, why would the omega feel numb all over like what he felt for the first time jisung had gone rough on him? that, he doesn't know. not like he hated to be carried around, at least he won't get to put an effort in walking and get tired of it. it's the taller male he's worried about. carrying him like this would strain his muscles and he'd probably have back pain because of him.

what jisung liked about being bonded by the omega was how he could feel him and sense what he is feeling. he could definitely feel how worried he is and he couldn't help but chuckle, already seeing that pout on his face.

stopping the moment they got down from the stairs, jisung turned his head to the side and gave the omega a soft peck on his puffed cheek. ❝bae, i'm fine. are you underestimating a pure blooded's strength?❞

it's not that, it's something else. snuggling close to the younger's neck, chenle let out a worried sigh. ❝am i not heavy?❞

❝why—❞ jisung can't help but scoff that being heavy crossed his mind. ❝who told you that you're heavy, huh? i'm going to fight whoever told you that.❞

tightening his embrace around the taller's neck, he had his lips puckered. ❝me.❞

❝i'm going to fight you, then.❞ the younger said without hesitation. he sounded serious and it made the omega whimper quietly. hissing at him, jisung gently nudged the smaller male that's hiding his face on the crook of his neck. ❝chenle, look at me.❞

the way how he's not joking with the tone of his voice made chenle shake his head, afraid that the pure blooded will really do something to him that would make him cry.

❝look at me, i'll fight you.❞ the demand visible from his voice was strong, almost making the older male that he's this near to using alpha voice on him. which, he really did use after a couple of seconds with chenle just avoiding eye contact with me. ❝omega, what did i say?❞

biting his lower lip, the older made a low whining sound but slowly pulled away from his neck nonetheless. he still avoided eye contact but had his head face at the pure blooded who's probably glaring right through his soul. ever since jisung had claimed him as his, he would sometimes slip and use his voice on him. it wasn't that harsh, but chenle could see that he's surely having fun pointing out the obvious that he's the dominant in their relationship.

sensing how he frightened him a tad bit, jisung had his gaze softened on to the omega and now had a small smile on his face instead of a deep frown. not minding how he was looking away from him, a pair of lips came in contact with the omega's. chenle wanted to play hard to get but failed, making him give in to the kiss and parted his lips willingly for the pure blooded to gladly insert his tongue. but jisung didn't do that, he only kept a smile and nibbled carefully on the older's bottom lip, giving kitten licks from time to time.

and when they finally needed air, jisung pulled away after placing a peck on the older's plum and glossy lips.

he then let out giggle at how the omega was panting for air heavily as if the kiss they had was that wearisome. ❝with love, i'm going to fight you with love.❞ saying that only made the omega bury his head back to the crook of his neck, his laugh echoing around the living room. ❝i just want to show you that you should love yourself as much as i love and appreciate you, okay?❞

❝h-hm, okay.❞ his soft voice rang through the younger's ears, making the taller coo at how adorable he is.

the two didn't even realize that they were standing there for quite a while that they didn't notice a presence by the door frame separating the living room and the kitchen, also a someone that was happily sipping his cup of coffee and just sitting down by the sofa.

it was just then when jisung heard a cough that he got to raise his head up and saw her mother leaning by the dooor frame, and his father giving him a look of disgust by the sofa with his cup of coffee. no, it's not because he's with an omega. they have talked it out already, although he still had to adjust for it but he can manage as long as he doesn't get those divorce papers. he was disgusted at the fact that his son could say all those cringe-worthy lines and kiss his mate in front of his parents.

then again, wasn't he also like that with his wife?

he's just bitter because his wife would usually push him away and reject his affection. meanwhile, jisung gets to act all sweet with his mate.

❝going already?❞ the mother finally spoke after a good minute of awkward silence surrounding around the room.

jisung hummed as he nodded his head, still carrying the sleepy omega behind his back. ❝classes, mom.❞

❝i bet you won't go back yet.❞ the father said, diverting his attention from them before he actually acts like he's puking.

he ain't wrong. chenle received a call this morning coming from renjun and he could see how much he is worried about him. he then asked to meet up with him. surprisingly, he has been hanging out with both jaemin and jeno. it was as if yesterday he kept on convincing them that he didn't need any alpha beside him and now he's glued with two, having one as a pure blooded.

❝i'll miss my lele!❞ she cried out, approaching them with her arms wide open.

only to be growled at by her sound the moment she's a step close to them. that unconscious action of his caused for the father by the sofa to stand up and almost got to harm the young pure blooded that's threatening his own mother. ❝jisung park!❞

but the woman hushed her husband, quieting him down before the situation gets worse. ❝it's normal for him to threaten at anyone who gets close to his omega.❞ she explained. that didn't stop her from sticking close to the sleepy male though and pinch his cheeks, cooing at how he tried his best to keep himself awake.

❝mom, gently!❞ jisung groaned, worried that she's going to hurt his boyfriend. ❝you're going to hurt him.❞

❝i'm going to miss you.❞ she pouted and still had her eyes on the omega, treating him like a baby. the days with him was amazing and memorable for her, it felt like she was taking care of a literal baby. and she'd never forget the fact at how her son would always bore holes behind her back whenever she touches chenle.

❝i swear—❞ the pure blooded clicked his tongue and growled again, making the woman raise her hands up in the air as she surrendered and took a step back.

❝gosh, how possessive can you get?❞ she gave him a look before huffing.

rolling his eyes, jisung held back the urge to glare at her. ❝i'm not possessive.❞

that false statement made the father raise a brow, crossing his arms as he planned to test that out. ❝well, now that i finally had accepted omegas,❞ he smirked as soon as he caught his son's attention. ❝how about i give chenle a hug as a goodbye? i bet it'll be a while till i get to meet him again.❞

his gaze then immediately turned to a glare and it was as if he was burning his father with that look. ❝back off.❞ and great, he even used his voice against him.

❝you hear that, jisung?❞ the mother then snapped her fingers everywhere, his question referring to what her son said a while ago about being possessive. ❝that's you and your lies.❞

they were clearly playing with him and it made him huff in annoyance. ❝don't test my patience.❞

the married couple then stared at each before laughing, stopping their game at that limit before jisung does get violent and they didn't want that to happen. not when the omega behind him already fell asleep, making the mother coo loudly. that, again, earned a glare from the young pure blooded alpha for being too loud and might possibly wake his omega up.

❝anyways, we'll get going now.❞ jisung said, tightening his grip on the sleeping older male behind him so he won't fall.

❝take care!❞ the mother waved her hand at them as he watched her son make his way to the front door. ❝and don't forget, i'll be taking money from your bank account to fix the sink you destroyed!❞

his face then heated up at the mention of that, making him remember countless of things he destroyed, including the bed at chenle's old apartment. the father laughed at how embarrassed his son is, which is how he should be. he was still baffled at the young pure blooded's great idea of doing it inside the bathroom. he felt like his ears sinned badly that very night, along with getting nagged by this woman right here. fortunately for him, he finally got proper sleep on the following days with the two getting silent inside the room but who knows what there are doing.

he definitely didn't want to know.

once the pure blooded came out of the house, the man immediately turned to his wife with a puzzled expression that caused her to raise a brow. ❝seriously, why did they even think that doing it inside the bathroom would cover up their noise?❞

oh, so that's what's bothering him. the wife then shrugged, turning her back at him as she started to walk back towards the kitchen. ❝we almost did it at the balcony, you don't hear jisung complain about it.❞

with his son turning red a while ago, it was his turn to get embarrassed at the mention of that memory. it made him shut up and not say a word knowing that his wife would always have a thing or two to say about it.

⚠️

he didn't know how long he was taking a nap but he was awoken with hearing a dog bark, yawning as he had his eyes fluttering open. chenle then spaced out for a good five seconds before realizing that he was still on the pure blooded's back and this looked like far from the neighborhood where jisung lived. he didn't know why he panicked but it almost made the younger male that's carrying him stumble back at his sudden movement.

❝s-sorry..❞ chenle quickly apologized, pressing his lips into a thin line as he heard the taller male mumble a curse word.

❝you could have told me you're awake.❞ he wasn't mad that chenle almost caused for them to fall down, he was worried at the idea of the older male hurting himself. ❝how was your sleep?❞

❝it was great.❞ the omega said with a smile, poking jisung's shoulder to make the younger turn to him ❝you can put me down now.❞

❝chenle, you're like a noodle. i can't let you carelessly walk around and hurt yourself.❞ he told him, genuinely just worried for the omega. after all, the older had to face his wrath because of his cycle. jisung would like to repay it by taking care of him to this extent. ❝and plus, we're almost there.❞

chenle followed to where they were headed too and almost let out a loud gasp upon seeing that they passed by a familiar campus and now they were on their way to a building that he felt like he hasn't seen for a whole year. it then made him remember about his roommate, his cousin, and basically just everyone. but the thought of going back to classes, attending them, and catching up with the lessons made him groan.

jisung widened his eyes when the older tried to make an attempt in getting down from his back. he tried to tightened his grip from his thighs but was too late as the omega successfully pushed himself away and hopped down with a bright smile on his face. to say jisung was worried was an understatement. he actually had thought something would happen to him if he gets down.

❝you can't just do that!❞ thus making him raise his voice at the shorter male, catching him off guard. ❝what if you slipped? twisted your ankles? stumbled back? broke your bones?❞

chenle flinched at every question that was thrown at him, making him move away from the angry male. ❝ji, i just got down—❞

❝and i was worried that something might have happened to you, god damn it!❞ he didn't know if it's just because he claimed him as his that he's getting double worried with every move he made, but he surely felt his soul getting out of his body when the older jumped down from his back.

heaving out a stressful sigh, jisung ran a hand through his hair and approached the scared omega. he then lifted his hand up and settled it on his cheek, caressing it softly, and then had his forehead rest on the older's. he took deep breaths in and comforted the frightened male. it was his fault anyways as to why he's scared, he raised his voice at him.

❝take care of yourself. don't do anything reckless that would worry the hell out of me, please?❞ he uttered, showing concern at the tone of his voice.

even though he didn't expect for jisung to talk back to him like that, chenle understood that it was just him being worried and caring for him. although, it still was kind of over the top. finally calming his senses down, the older male leaned forward and reassured jisung with a kiss. ❝i love you.❞

it then composed the pure blooded, giving back the kiss by placing one on top of his forehead. ❝i love you too.❞

❝are we just going to stand here and watch this drama unfold?❞

a familiar voice caused the couple to move away from each other and turn their head to the direction as to where it is. they then had their eyes widened seeing their friends standing in front of the building with arms crossed. well, it was just jaemin, jeno, and to jisung's nightmare, renjun is also there.

chenle was happy to see the older around, together with the two alphas, but he can't help but feel nervous seeing how the smaller figure had his eyes glaring intently at the pure blooded right next to him.

since no one was doing it, chenle broke the silence between them with an awkward chuckle. ❝renjun—❞

but he didn't get to finish his greeting when the small omega came fuming towards the taller male and didn't think twice to fight against a pure blooded alpha.

what made them gasp in surprise was how renjun raised a hand and slapped jisung so hard that the sound echoed in their ears.
