"Did I scare him?"

"With your entire existence? Why yes. Yes you have." Renjun retorts from the other line of their phonecall.

"Damn, I must be that hot." Jaemin mumbled, earning an annoyed groan from the elder.

"If this is all you have to say after calling me three times when I left, I'm not picking up any of your damn calls for the rest of the day." Renjun said, rolling his eyes even though the younger couldn't exactly see him.

"So go suffer or something."

"Wait!" Jaemin immediately says in panic, begging the witch boy to not end the call as he desperately needs some help after said witch boy just left him in a semi awkward-mess with a certain purebred omega werewolf.

Said purebred omega werewolf was still hiding in his room, hasn't come out for almost 20 minutes now. Jaemin's getting worried by what happened, even though he could clearly smell the emotions in Jeno's pheromones.

"What do you want me to do?" Renjun deadpanned.

"I don't know! Just– quick, tell me what I can do so we could like– hangout properly face to face." Jaemin made some weird hand gestures on the air as he spoke.

The elder sighs in reply, making Jaemin feel nervous as he bit his lower lip with his fangs. "Just knock on the door, be gentle with him, friendly, and definitely don't give TMI about how you want to pounce on him."

Before Jaemin could utter out a another word, Renjun ends the call abruptly. Widening his eyes, he pulls the device away from his ear and stares at it in betrayal.

"Bitch." He muttered before taking a glance at Jeno's bedroom door. Should he really knock and try to talk to his definitely-not-so-obvious crush whatsoever or should he just wait for said werewolf to come out?

He doesn't want to intrude even more, but then again, he'd be a wimp or whatever Renjun would call him as if he doesn't just go for it.

So without further a do, he walls over to Jeno's bedroom door and knocks on it gently. He waits and uses his good hearing to listen for anything from the other side.

He hears a few shuffling, and some deep breaths nearby the door. As he was about to knock again and call out Jeno's name, the door opened making him show off his wide grin.

"Hi there Jeno!" He greets, scanning the boy's outfit since he didn't really took any notice from it when Jeno headed out earlier.

"Cute."

"Ew Jaemin, stop staring at my roommate like a creep." He heard Renjun's voice in his head and guessed that the elder was currently using his powers to spy on the mess he left in his own apartment.

He was about to pull on a small prank on the elder, maybe think of something too explicit or whatever that could make Renjun not stalk his mind for a good whole month.

Until Jeno's small shy voice spoke up, "h-hi..." He mumbles, staring down at the floor while he fidgets on his feet.

Noticing his slight uneasiness, Jaemin turns his wide grin into a soft smile. "Are you nervous?" He asks, earning a small nod in return.

He pursed his lips, containing another upcoming grin from feeling prideful that he made Jeno feel shy. Don't ask on why he likes that, you don't wanna know.

"Well, it's okay to be nervous, Jeno. But I'm not keeping you silent or in control, so... You can tell me anything, yeah?" He tries to come up with the right words.

It sort of feels weird since it's usually Renjun who gives him a script or advices on what he should say to moments like these before he loses his chances.

"Wh-what?" Jeno asks, a little baffled as he looks up.

Reaching up to scratch his nape, Jaemin shrugs. "I'm just saying, it's okay of you're shy and all right now, I'm determined to make you feel more... Welcomed? Is that the right word?" He ends up asking himself.

He was about to silently scold himself before he heard a small stifled laugh from Jeno, who was biting his lip to not let out a sound.

"What's so funny?" He asks in a funny tone to lighten up the mood.

It worked, because Jeno didn't shy away or back down, he instead replied with, "welcome to what?" He tilts his head, almost in a challenging manner.

The vampire boy hums and slowly smirks, "in my arms, heart, maybe everything." He adds a wink as he brings up his flirty act again.

His words made Jeno flustered, cheeks back to turning red as he looks away with a small cough.

Chuckling, Jaemin clears his throat. "But... All jokes aside..." He starts off slowly, gaining Jeno's full attention now.

"You don't have to be shy and stuff towards me, Jeno. And it's not a date if you don't want it to be, I just want to get to know you better." He paused, "alone." He snorts at the end.

"Liar, if I didn't threaten you and shit, you'd probably fuck him or something."

"No I wouldn't." Jaemin fights back in his head, his face scrunching into a small frown without him realizing as Jeno stared at him in a funny way.

"Yes you would, even if you wouldn't, you'd atleast still want it to be a date, because you're that desperate for my cute werewolf roommate."

"Shut the fuck up, Renjun or I'm breaking your stick."

"It's a wand!" Renjun's annoying voice echoes loudly as he was getting triggered. It definitely wasn't a stick.

"It's a magical stick."

"A wand! Shut up and go make out with him."

"I thought you said–"

"I said fuck, not make out, you dumbass."

"I'd do both of those to him either way!" Jaemin blurts out for real as he cover his blabber mouth with his hand. Eyes wide when he looks at the younger in front of him.

He was about to apologize, until–

Jeno giggles back. He. Giggles. Back. At. Jaemin. Audibly.

No shying away, covering his face, biting the giggle back and replacing it with something else. He giggles with his face scrunching up.

Jaemin unconsciously smiles at him.

"Sorry..." He mumbles with a chuckle.

Jeno smiles at him, starting to feel much more comfortable after seeing that this vampire boy isn't scary or those cold ones, he was more on silly yet still very flirty.

Jeno's still trying to get used to the last one.

"But for real, let's get to know each other more, Jeno." He said gently. He reaches a hand for Jeno to take jokingly, surprised that the werewolf accepted it and steps out of his room while closing the door behind him.

"21 questions?" He earns a nod as they both smile at each other before Jaemin leads him to the couch, which made Jeno laugh because this is his place, not the elder's.
