hangyul laid down on the cold floor, catching his breath as he finished his dance routine. his heavy panting filled the room as he wiped his sweat off with a small towel he brought with him. it felt nice to dance by himself with no one looking. well, not that he minded anyone looking at him. he just got a little more privacy.

he wasn't thinking of entering the school dance competition again this year due to all the classes he was already taking. he didn't even think of it when his body started to feel more omega like.

"why am i so sensitive to every little thing" hangyul mumbled, rubbing at the aching pain in his leg. he didn't remember it hurting so much. or maybe was it because his mindset was a little less beta like.

or he was just overworking himself.

he's been practicing the whole afternoon and even skipped lunch to focus on perfectiing his routine. that explained how his stomach was making all sorts of noises and how he didn't have any strength left to even get up on his feet.

he suddenly heard the for of the practice room open. he whipped his head to look into the mirror to see who it was. before he could even do that, a voice startled him.

"hangyul"

hearing the familiar tone made him whip his head ever so quickly. his spine almost gave out when he sat up and looked at whoever entered the room.

"minjun" as if the gods had heard him or something, the alpha appeared right in front of him. he's been thinking of the alpha but it didn't mean he wanted to see him. he should've expected minjun to come to this place. he always came here to watch hangyul dance when they were still dating.

"i knew you'd be here" the taller chuckled, closing the door behind him, "you haven't been here for the past few days"

hangyul rubbed his back to get rid of the aching pain and bit his bottom lip, "you came here?"

"why are you so surprised? i used to come here all the time with you" minjun smirked, pulling the strap of his bag up as it slipped down, "it's been a while since we've talked"

hangyul finally got up on his feet, stumbling a little bit because of the soreness in his feet, "we're not dating anymore. you don't have to come here" he sounded a bit cold, replying to the alpha but it wasn't like they were on good terms anyways.

that made the alpha pout, but hangyul wasn't paying attention to the taller. instead, he waddled his way over, flinching whenever he stepped down on his right foot. did he not stretch properly before dancing?

"you hurt your leg?" minjun raised his eyebrow, changing the topic as hangyul sat down on the bench, "let me see" the older was ready to bend down and check up on it when hangyul jerked his body away.

"i'm fine" hangyul mumbled, grabbing the towel from his bag and wiping the remaining drops of sweat on his forehead. he no longer felt at ease with the alpha around. sure, maybe he did miss the alpha at times but after it being a couple months, he was used to the empty feeling.

minjun clenched his fist when he heard the younger's response, "i just wanted to look out for you. as a friend"

something twitched inside hangyul when he heard that. a friend. he didn't want to be friends with minjun. call him sassy or not, he didn't want to be friends with someone who cheated behind his back. he didn't feel comfortable.

he simply let out a scoff, glancing at the older, "a friend? what makes you think i want to be friends?" he picked up his bag and threw his towel inside before zipping it up and slinging it on his shoulder.

"wait hangyul—"

hangyul got up and walked past the older alpha, heading towards the door, "i don't want to talk to you. don't look for me again"

a hand grabbed the omega's wrist before he could even move an inch after turning around. minjun felt like there was something different about hangyul. he remembered hangyul smelling different before. now, he barely smelled any of hangyul's pheromones.

"let go!" hangyul tried to yank his arm out of the alpha's grip, "i already said i don't want to take to you! and don't touch me—"

"you smell different" minjun mumbled, looking into the younger's eyes, "i can't smell you at all" he eyed the younger's scent glands, seeing some sort of scent patch covering them. why would hangyul need that? those are only for omegas—

the alpha's hand, unknowingly, reached out to touch it, only to find a hand grabbing his own wrist to stop it.

"i said don't touch me" hangyul almost let out a soft growl, "you're just spouting nonsense" he let go of the alpha's arm and yanked his out successfully from the death grip, "i'm not going to be your boyfriend again"

that's when hangyul realized he was no longer in love with minjun. all of his feelings were gone. the two weeks after he broke up with the older, he was crying during his sleep and wanting to get back with him, but now, he felt irritated when he saw the alpha.

"but i did like you hangyul. i liked you a lot and i broke up with—"

"i don't want to hear it" hangyul cut the alpha off as he headed out of the practice room. he felt even more irritated when he felt the alpha still trailing behind him, "so what if i'm not an omega? i'm sure i'll find someone who respects me for who i am"

those words broke the alpha's heart as he stopped in his tracks, rubbing the back of his head as he watched hangyul walk farther and farther away from him, "i— i messed up okay? i didn't mean to say that. i really loved you. i regret saying those things and cheating behind your back"

hangyul stopped walking, making the alpha raise his eyebrow and have some hope that the omega was listening. he caught up with the younger and was about to sling his arm around the shorter until he was pulled away from him.

the familiar, and awful scent hit him. it was none other than—

"don't touch him" seungyoun almost growled, pulling hangyul to his chest. he couldn't see how much the shorter was blushing, but hangyul thought he would've looked like a tomato now.

"you" minjun growled back, feeling annoyed at the arm wrapped around what's his, "why are you always here?"

hangyul dug his head into the crook of the older's neck, making seungyoun smile to himself, "and didn't hangyul say to leave him alone? why do you want him back so much? you were the one that broke up with him didn't you?"

"tch" the other alpha clicked his tongue, "stop putting your head in other people's business cho seungyoun"

"that's my speciality park minjun" seungyoun smirked, making the alpha almost explode on the inside. if hangyul weren't here, they would've definitely fought, but seungyoun didn't want to show that side of him to the younger. it'd completely ruin his image too.

"whatever" minjun rolled his eyes, mumbling something as he walked past them, not forgetting to send a death glare to the alpha.

once he was out of sight, hangyul lifted his head up and looked at the alpha, "t-thank you sunbae" he quickly got off of the alpha, cheeks burning red.

"you're okay?" seungyoun asked, looking off in the direction the other alpha left in, "he didn't do anything?"

hangyul shook his head with a small smile, "he was just bothering me and reminiscing the past"

"he's that desperate huh" seungyoun mumbled in a low tone, making hangyul shiver, "he's never gonna get you back" maybe the alpha's confidence just went sky high because he had hangyul in his arms.

"of course not" hangyul let out a soft giggle, "and i wouldn't allow it either way"

"yeah cause you're mine" seungyoun thought in his head as he smiled to himself. he wondered where he got all the confidence from. he felt great winning hangyul over that other guy. who wouldn't?
