Jungkook is nervous.

It's stupid because he's known Jimin for four months and had sex with him multiple times. He shouldn't feel nervous about a date.

But it's their first date and for Jimin his actual first date ever . Jungkook told him he'd make it the best first date ever but he wishes he didn't. He always talks a big game without knowing if he can deliver. He'll try his best, that's for sure, but who knows what'll happen.

He's glad he gets to spend some time with Jimin though. A few hours, just the two of them. He still can't believe that he's with Jimin now. Jimin is his. Kind of. He's not officially his boyfriend yet but Jungkook is going to change that soon. He has a chance of courting Jimin again and this time he knows Jimin is open to it.

"Have you ever ice skated before?" Jungkook asks.

They're sat on one of the benches next to the ice rink, putting their skates on. The place is swarming with people. Lotte World is always a busy place but the ice rink here looks magical. Jungkook thinks it's a romantic place for a date. When they arrived Jimin looked like a kid in a candy shop. His eyes were wide open, looking in awe of everything. He looked so cute Jungkook thought he was going to melt before the date even started.

"I did when I was really young," Jimin says from where he's bent over, tying his skates, "so I'm probably gonna be really bad at it."

"It's okay, I'll help you."

"Don't let me fall," Jimin sits up straight when he's done.

"I'll try my best," Jungkook chuckles. "Ready?"

"Yeah."

Jungkook stands up and extends his hand to Jimin who takes it. He helps him up and doesn't let go of his hand. It looks even smaller with a glove on. Jungkook finds it so cute he can't help but smile at the sight.

Jimin is holding onto Jungkook's arm for dear life as he guides them to the rink door. Jungkook isn't an ice skating pro but he's pretty decent at it. He certainly knows how to stay on his feet, can do simple figures but it's not like he can do a triple axel. He's confident on the ice though which is a lot more than Jimin who's taking way too long to step on the ice.

People are waiting behind him and they look annoyed. Jungkook has one hand on the rail and is holding Jimin's hand in the other. Some people try to squeeze past Jimin to get on the ice.

"Come on Jimin," Jungkook laughs because he looks ridiculous. "Just hold onto the rail, you won't fall."

"Don't let go of me."

"I'll never let go, Jack."

"Now isn't the time to make jokes Jungkook," Jimin whisper yells. He's glaring at Jungkook but it only makes him laugh harder.

"You're blocking the door, just step on the ice."

Jimin's eyes widen in surprise. He looks behind him and bows to apologize. When he looks back at Jungkook, there's a pink flush on his cheeks. Jungkook tugs on his hand and Jimin finally steps on the ice. He's quick to grip the rail though, leaning against it to stabilize himself. Jungkook keeps a hand on his waist in case he has to catch him. Jimin is facing away from the rink and from Jungkook, but Jungkook knows fear is written all over his face.

"See? It's not so bad," Jungkook reassures him.

"Okay," Jimin nods, "yeah, no I can do this."

He takes a deep breath and then turns to face Jungkook, without letting go of the rail. Jungkook cages him in against it, each hand on each side of his body. He smells like heaven up this close. There's so many scents filling the air and yet Jungkook can only smell Jimin's. It's like his nose is trained to find Jimin in a crowd. Or maybe he's just so head over heels for Jimin that all he knows is Jimin.

Jungkook giggles when he sees him glaring at the kids doing pirouettes and cool figures in the middle of the rink. A lot of people are skating which won't make it easy for Jimin to be comfortable while he tries to get used to skating.

"Wanna try moving?" Jungkook asks.

"I don't know."

"Let's give it a try. You're a dancer, you should have good balance."

"Do you think that'll help?"

"Sure," Jungkook smiles at him. He actually has no idea if it helps but if it gives Jimin confidence then good. "You have to bend your knees," Jungkook says, taking hold of one of Jimin's hands.

Jimin's grip is so tight it almost hurts. They start moving slowly while Jimin's still holding onto the rail with one hand. People zoom past them but Jungkook doesn't even throw them a glance. His focus is entirely on Jimin. He gives him tips and encouraging words. Eventually, Jimin has to let go of the rail because some people are leaning against it.

It's a whole ordeal, there's a lot of whining from Jimin and a lot of laughs from Jungkook but eventually Jimin lets go of the rail and off they go. They're going just as slow as before but when Jimin realizes he can stand on his own (with the help of Jungkook's hand still), he gains confidence.

Soon enough, Jimin gets the hang of it and they start skating at a normal pace. Jungkook's eyes never leave Jimin, his alpha is on high alert in case he loses his balance. He doesn't want him to get hurt, it would ruin their date. Jimin doesn't let go of Jungkook's hand and it makes Jungkook feel warm all over. They look like the other couples, skating while holding hands.

Spending time with someone you care about seem so simple but Jungkook's never experienced something like this before. His heart beats a certain way when he's Jimin, his chest feels warm every time he makes Jimin smile and his hands seem to always be shaking either with excitement, nervousness or happiness. It's a strange mix of feelings. He feels both at peace and agitated. He feels so much at once and yet it's a feeling he's getting addicted to.

"I think I can let go of your hand now," Jimin says.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, I wanna try," Jimin nods, "stay close to me though."

"I'm not going anywhere."

The words make Jimin smile. Jungkook has to stop himself from pouting when Jimin lets go of his hand. He already misses it. Jimin has not difficulty finding his balance, he just slows down which makes Jungkook skate ahead. When Jungkook looks over his shoulder Jimin is beaming.

"I'm doing it!" he says excitedly and Jungkook can't help but beam too.

"You're doing great, baby."

Jimin catches up to Jungkook and they skate like that, side by side. Even if there's a lot of people around, it's relaxing. Jimin is doing pretty good at avoiding people. He almost runs into a little girl but Jungkook grabs his arm in time to make him swerve.

Jimin looks beautiful. His nose is red from the cold and his cheeks are flushed pink from the effort. He hasn't stopped smiling since he let go of Jungkook's hand and Jungkook is no better. Jimin looks happy and that makes Jungkook's alpha preen.

"This is fun," Jimin says over the loud noise of skates and people's laughter.

"Yeah?" Jungkook smiles. "Is it a good first date so far?"

"It's perfect."

"You're perfect," Jungkook says. He takes hold of Jimin's hand and gives it a kiss over his glove.

"You know," Jimin squeezes Jungkook's hand, "when I first met you, I didn't take you for the cheesy type."

Jungkook laughs, swerving left and taking Jimin with him to avoid a teenage boy who just fell on his ass.

"I like how you react every time I say something cheesy," Jungkook smirks and Jimin frowns.

"How do I react?"

"You blush. Every time."

"I don't blush," Jimin says, shaking his head.

"You're blushing right now."

"It's just the cold that's making my face red."

"Sure, baby," Jungkook smiles. Jimin rolls his eyes at him.

They keep skating, bickering over the smallest things. Jungkook is always nervous when he has to spend time with Jimin because he's scared that they won't have anything to talk about. If there's one thing he doesn't want to do it's to bore Jimin. He always worries for nothing because conversation always flows easily. Jimin is a very easy person to talk to. They have similar senses of humor and are both flirty people which makes for fun conversations.

Jungkook doesn't think he can ever get bored of and with Jimin. It feels like they've known each other for years sometimes. He feels as comfortable around Jimin as he does around Taehyung, and he's known Taehyung for eleven years.

While they don't run out of things to talk about, there's something Jungkook has been meaning to bring up but was too nervous to. They forgot to use a condom last time they had sex. It's a pretty fucking important conversation to have and Jungkook doesn't know when the right time would be for him to bring it up. He could have talked about it when Jimin visited him at work a few days ago but it didn't feel right.

He's scared of Jimin's reaction. Taehyung is right, it's stupid for him to be worried about that. They're both two adults that have sex together, it's normal for him to ask if Jimin's on the pill. It's just a conversation he's never had to have, he doesn't know how to go about it. He feels like a teenage boy who thinks it's awkward to talk about sex. It's not awkward, he shouldn't feel that way at twenty-one.

There's probably never gonna be a perfect time to bring it up so Jungkook just decides to go for it.

"Are you pregnant?"

Jimin's reaction is instantaneous. He loses his balance and almost falls on his face, arms flying everywhere. Jungkook gasps and catches him before he hits the ice. He pulls him against his chest and they crash into the rail. Jimin is squished between Jungkook's body and the rail but at least he didn't fall.

"What the fuck, Jungkook!" Jimin says, turning around to face him. He looks baffled. Jungkook blinks at him. Everything went so fast he can barely remember what brought them here. "Why do you say that?!" Jimin frowns, a cute pout on his lips. People are looking at them strangely.

"I didn't meant it like that," Jungkook is quick to clarify. He leans back to put more space in between their bodies. "My choice of words wasn't the best," he chuckles and scratches the back of his head. "What I meant to ask is, actually I'm afraid to ask because it might be too personal."

Jimin is looking at Jungkook like he has three heads and Jungkook doesn't blame him. He's a stuttering mess, his thoughts are all jumbled up in his brain. He doesn't know how to say this. This is going a lot worse than he imagined.

"You can tell me if it's too personal," Jungkook says, nodding, "but I'm worried because we didn't use protection and I came inside you." He whispers that last part in case someone is eavesdropping.

"Oh my god," Jimin groans and runs his hands over his face.

"A lot," Jungkook continues and that makes Jimin groan again, "and I knotted you. What if I have super sperm and you got pregnant after one try?"

"What?"

"I mean it's not like we tried to get pregnant but, like, are you very fertile?" Jungkook asks. His eyes widen when he realizes what he just said. Jimin raises an eyebrow at him. "No, wait," Jungkook squeezes his eyes shut and opens them again, "don't answer that. That's way too personal. I mean not that I wouldn't be there if you got pregnant. I like to think that I'm a responsible young alpha, I'd support you and our kid obviously."

Jimin's face is just blank at this point, Jungkook can't tell what he's thinking. He should stop talking right now but his thoughts go to dangerous territories. For some reason his brain conjures up the image of a very pregnant and wet Jimin, legs spread wide open as he takes Jungkook's cock. Jungkook blinks and tries to shake the thought away but the images only multiply.

Jimin waddling around the house with his big belly full of Jungkook's pups. Jimin begging Jungkook to breed him, to put more pups in him.

"You'd look so pretty," Jungkook breathes out. He's brought out of his thoughts when Jimin hits him in the chest.

"What the fuck Jungkook," he has a wild look in his eyes, "I don't know what you're thinking about but stop it!" He whispers yells. "You're gonna stink up this ice rink with your stupid alpha pheromones."

"I think I have a pregnancy kink," Jungkook deadpans.

"Oh my god."

"At least I think I do. I'm not sure because I've never slept with someone pregnant before but the idea of you being pregnant gets me all hot and bothered." Jungkook tries to get a hold of his scent. He smells horny and Lotte World really isn't the right place to be horny. "Anyway," he says, "are you on the pill? That's what I meant to ask."

"You're a mess, Jungkook," Jimin says, shaking his head. He doesn't look offended, he just looks appalled. Jungkook can work with that.

"I know."

"I'm not pregnant."

"Oh," Jungkook breathes out.

Weirdly enough he feels disappointed. Not about the fact that Jimin's not pregnant but that he won't be able to see a pregnant Jimin. He likes the image of a big bellied Jimin taking his cock but he doesn't actually want him to birth an actual baby. Not now at least. Jungkook isn't ready to be a dad right now.

"Are you sure?" Jungkook asks.

"Yes, I'm sure," Jimin crosses his arms over his chest. Oh my god. His chest. Would it grow in size if he was pregnant? Jungkook really can't think about that right now.

"So, I don't have super sperm?"

"I don't think that's a thing."

"I kinda wanted to be a special alpha," Jungkook pouts. Exhibit A of why he shouldn't be a dad: he's still a child himself.

"Jungkook, baby," Jimin puts his hands on Jungkook's shoulders, "please shut the fuck up." Jungkook snorts and rolls his eyes at him. He deserves that. "Yeah, I'm on the pill. I'm not pregnant but I appreciate that you would support me and the child if I were. We are not going to have a child anytime soon."

Jungkook's alpha perks up at the words. Jimin didn't say they'll never have a child. He said not now. Does it mean Jimin would consider having a child with Jungkook someday? The thought makes him excited.

"You're not even my boyfriend yet," Jimin continues, "so please calm down, breathe and stop thinking about pups."

"I just think you'd look pretty with a pup in you," Jungkook pouts. "Can't a man have fantasies?"

Jimin rolls his eyes at him but he's smiling fondly. "You can have fantasies. We can do some role play one day if you'd like, but no real pups."

"Oh my god," Jungkook beams, "you'd do that for me? That's so cute."

"Sure," Jimin shrugs. "If dirty talking about breeding me makes you happy then I'm fine with that."

Jungkook wraps his arms around Jimin's waist and kisses him softly. Their lips are freezing cold but it doesn't matter. Jungkook kisses the tip of Jimin's nose and then his forehead. He rearranges Jimin's beanie over his head and Jimin smiles at him.

"You're the best almost boyfriend ever," Jungkook says, smiling back.

"Thank you," Jimin chuckles. "I was worried about us not using a condom because of STDs, not because of a potential pregnancy."

"Oh! Right, I didn't even think of that. We should go get a check up, just in case."

"Together?" Jimin frowns.

"Sure," Jungkook nods. "Isn't that what couples do?"

"I guess," Jimin laughs. "Okay, we'll do that. If everything's okay we'll be able to have sex without a condom all the time then."

"Mmh," Jungkook pecks his lips, "I like the sound of that."

Jimin laughs against his lips when Jungkook kisses him again. Jungkook totally forgot they're in public and that there's children around. They should keep things PG. His thoughts definitely aren't PG but no one has to know.

"Can we go back to ice skating now?" Jimin asks, a beautiful smile adorning his face.

"One more kiss," Jungkook says and Jimin indulges him. "Now we can go," Jungkook smiles.

They break their embrace and Jungkook goes first. He doesn't go far because he waits for Jimin who's struggling. He holds onto the rail and tries to skate away from it, looking for a space in between the crowd to start skating comfortably. He's doing pretty good until he lets go of the rail. He doesn't bend his knees enough and completely loses his balance. Jungkook tries to skate back to him to catch him but he's too late. Jimin falls on his ass.

He's wincing in pain as people skate past him, completely ignoring him. Falling during ice skating is a pretty common occurrence. Jungkook stops in front of Jimin and extends his hands.

"Oh my god, no! The baby," he says. Jimin glares up at him and slaps his hands away.

"I'm not pregnant, stop saying that!"

"I'm talking about you," Jungkook whines. "You're the baby."

Jimin tries to hold back a smile but Jungkook knows. Jimin rolls his eyes at him but he's blushing. Jungkook smiles at him and offers his hands again. This time Jimin takes them and Jungkook helps him up.

"You're an idiot," Jimin says, catching himself on Jungkook's shoulders.

"I'm your idiot."

"Yeah," Jimin breathes out, "my idiot."

He smiles before kissing Jungkook, wrapping his arms around his neck. Jungkook holds onto his waist. His heart races the way it always does when he's in Jimin's arms. All he can smell is flowers. Feels like home.

Jimin breaks the kiss and rubs their pink noses together. "I think I'm done with ice skating for today. I'm hungry, can we go get food?"

"Sure," Jungkook nods. "Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?"

"My butt hurts," Jimin pouts, rubbing his sore cheeks.

"You're used to having a sore butt, you'll be fine."

"Hey!" Jimin hits his chest and Jungkook laughs. "It's not the good kind of sore."

"That's a shame. I can change that if you want," Jungkook smirks.

"No," Jimin deadpans. "I want food."

"A demanding baby, I see."

"You already knew that, it can't be a surprise," Jimin smiles.

Jungkook takes his hand and guides him out of the rink. The door isn't too far, it only takes them a few seconds.

"You're right, it's not," Jungkook says. He gets out first and then Jimin. He doesn't let go of him even though Jimin doesn't need him to walk. "I like it."

"I know," Jimin says as he sits on the bench. He bends down to unlace his skates. "I'm lucky."

Jungkook smiles even though Jimin isn't looking at him. "So am I."

Jimin sits up to kiss Jungkook's cheek before unlacing his second skate. Jungkook's heart skips a beat. He's still not used to Jimin being so affectionate. Before they confessed to each other, Jimin used to be quite cold. He was only affectionate when they had sex.

Jungkook loves it. He loves that Jimin kisses him so often, he loves that he wants to hold his hand, he loves that he shows Jungkook he wants to spend time with him. Jungkook feels appreciated and he's happy the relationship isn't one-sided. He thought Jimin would be a lot more weary and still cold at first, but he looks ready to embrace happiness. That makes Jungkook so happy.

It doesn't take long for them to put their shoes back on and give their skates back. They leave the ice rink area and head to the Lotte World mall to find food. They take their gloves off and Jimin is quick to take Jungkook's hand. Jimin's hand is freezing cold in Jungkook's warm one. Jungkook sandwiches his hand in between his and rubs it to warm it up.

"Thank you," Jimin smiles at him. Jungkook's answer is to kiss the back of his hand.

"What do you want to eat?"

"I want ramen."

"Ramen it is then."

They quickly find what they're looking for. Jungkook pays for their food and this time Jimin doesn't complain. They take their trays and sit at a table. They take off their coats and don't waste anymore time before digging in. Jungkook didn't realize how much he was starving.

"This is good," Jimin says around a mouthful of ramen. He looks adorable with his round cheeks.

"Are you sure you're okay? You didn't hurt your back?"

"I'm fine, Jungkook," Jimin smiles. He pats Jungkook's hand. "The baby's fine too," he says, rubbing a hand over his flat belly.

"Shut up," Jungkook chuckles, rolling his eyes. "What do you want to do next?"

"What about you? What do you want to do?"

"I'm happy just being with you."

Jimin grins at him, fondness written all over his face. His scent sweetens which means he's pleased. Jungkook's alpha preens.

"That's really sweet," Jimin says. "I'm happy just being with you too."

"I feel like we should do more. I said I'd make it the best first date ever but all we've done is ice skate and eat," Jungkook pouts.

"I think it's a perfect date, babe. We could be watching a movie at your place and it'd be perfect," Jimin shrugs before taking another bite of his ramen. He frowns when Jungkook is just beaming at him. "What?"

"I like that you call me babe. I didn't think you'd like pet names. Apart from daddy of course," Jungkook smirks.

"I'm never calling you that again."

"Why not?" Jungkook whines. "You seemed to enjoy it."

"It was okay."

"You literally squirted all over my dick that day."

Jimin chokes on his ramen, coughing loudly. Jungkook has to get up to pat him on the back. It takes him a good five minutes to calm down. Jungkook should work on his brain-to-mouth filter.

"You're so annoying," Jimin says. He coughs again. "Don't say shit like that when I'm eating."

"Sorry," Jungkook shrugs. "I'm just saying though, you did."

"I like pet names," Jimin changes the subject. "It's cute. I like when you call me baby."

"I know I've noticed."

Jimin smiles at him. "Where should we go on our second date?"

"You're already thinking about our second date?

"Well, yeah."

"Wow, this first date is going really well," Jungkook smirks. "I think I'm going to get the boy."

"You already have the boy," Jimin chuckles.

"True," Jungkook beams. He still can't believe he does. "How about the moon for our second date?"

"Okay," Jimin says like it's the most normal thing ever.

"Would you really go to the moon with me?"

"Yeah," Jimin nods.

"Aw, baby," Jungkook coos, leaning over the table to squish Jimin's cheeks.

Jimin pushes Jungkook's hands away. "Don't do that."

"You're so cute," Jungkook smiles. "Absolutely adorable."

Jimin sighs heavily and shakes his head but he's holding back a smile. He may act annoyed with Jungkook but Jungkook can tell he enjoys all the attention and the affection. Jimin hasn't been doted on in years, it must be strange for him when Jungkook does it. Jungkook wants to spoil him with affection.

Jungkook's never been a particularly affectionate person but with Jimin, it's like he can't help it. He needs to touch and feel him in some way. Most of it comes from his alpha instincts. Alphas are naturally protective and are the most pleased when they please their omegas.

Jungkook used to satisfy that part of his instincts with sex, every time he took good care of the omegas he slept with. He does it with Taehyung too, whenever his best friend feels sad or is in trouble, Jungkook goes into alpha mode until Taehyung is okay again.

Jimin is special. He's his omega now and his alpha is hyper aware of his mood. He notices every little change in his scent and his own mood is affected by Jimin's.

Jimin is happy right now so Jungkook is happy.

"I don't know what we'll do for our second date but I already can't wait to spend more time with you," Jungkook says.

"You're a clingy alpha."

"You're clingy too."

"I'm not," Jimin frowns.

"You couldn't take your hands off of me when we ate lunch together last time."

"Are you kidding?" Jimin scoffs. "That was you."

"It was both of us."

"That's a lie but okay," Jimin says. "I can cook you dinner if you want."

"At your place?"

"Yeah, I'm a good cook."

Jungkook's alpha is strangely pleased by that. It's probably a very primal thing. His omega can take care of him too. That's nice. Jungkook is pleased that Jimin's okay with inviting him over now. He should invite Jimin over too, to show him his new space. Not that he has a room of his own or anything, he sleeps on Taehyung's couch, but shouldn't his (almost) boyfriend see where he lives?

Jungkook would love to introduce Jimin to Taehyung. The two would probably get along really well. Maybe a little too well. They might forget all about Jungkook and elope. Maybe he shouldn't introduce them.

"That sounds great," Jungkook says. "I haven't had a homemade meal in so long. Tae and I can't cook. I think the last time I had one was when I visited my parents in Busan last summer."

"What are they like?"

"My parents?" Jungkook is surprised by the question. They've never talked about that before.

"Yeah. Do you get along well?"

"I guess," Jungkook shrugs, stirring his ramen absentmindedly. "I don't call them as often as I should. They're pretty normal parents. They're nice people."

"Do you tell them about your life?" Jimin sounds hesitant. He's looking down at his food.

"I didn't tell them about you if that's what you're asking."

"Oh," there's disappointment in Jimin's scent which surprises Jungkook.

Is that something he's been thinking about? Does he want Jungkook to tell his parents? Jungkook hasn't because until a few weeks ago they were only fuck buddies and Jungkook doesn't talk about his sex life with his parents, that's for sure. It's surprising that Jimin, who's scared of relationships, would be disappointed in the fact Jungkook hasn't talked about him to his parents. That's like next level commitment.

"Not that I don't want to," Jungkook says. "In time, I will. As I said, I don't call them often, but if my mom asked if I had someone in my life right now then I'd tell her I have you. Since, we're getting pretty serious. Do you want me to tell them?"

"It's not that," Jimin looks up, sighing. "I'm just scared I guess."

"About what?" Jungkook frowns.

"Of what they'll think of me since I'm older than you. Much older."

"You're not that old, Jimin," Jungkook says, shaking his head.

"Maybe," Jimin shrugs, "but I'm still older, and I have a kid. I'm not really the ideal partner for their son."

Jungkook has never really thought about it. He didn't think that their age difference was something Jimin's insecure about. To him, it doesn't make any difference. He likes Jimin and with time he'll learn to like Haewon too. He doesn't care about what other people think of their relationship. Which is surprising for a people pleaser like Jungkook.

"They won't care," Jungkook says. "They care about my happiness and I'm happy with you. That's all that matters to them."

"I wish it was that easy," Jimin smiles bitterly.

"It is," Jungkook takes Jimin's hand and intertwines their fingers over the table. "Look, we're not there yet. I know you can't help but think about all the ways this relationship can go wrong but believe me when I say I'm not going anywhere."

"I'm sorry," Jimin whispers. He's looking at their hands.

"Don't apologize about your feelings, Jimin. It's okay to be scared," Jungkook smiles at him and Jimin smiles back. "Wanna know what I'm scared of?" Jimin nods. "I'm scared I'll never be good enough for you."

"That's not true," Jimin frowns, squeezing Jungkook's hand.

"Maybe but that's how I feel right now," Jungkook shrugs. "It doesn't mean that I won't try and it doesn't mean that I'm not happy with you. It's just what it is."

"So, we're both scared, is what you're saying?"

"Exactly."

"That actually," Jimin licks his lips, "it actually helps. Knowing that it's not just me."

"I know, it's always less scary when we aren't alone," Jungkook smiles.

Jimin stares at him the same way he always does when Jungkook says things like this. When they confessed to each other, Jimin said it felt like Jungkook was in his brain sometimes because he knows exactly how he feels. Jungkook's sense of empathy is definitely stronger than he thought but he's no mentalist. He's just very attuned to Jimin for some reason.

"I know I say that a lot," Jimin says, "but you're amazing."

"Yeah, I'm pretty awesome," Jungkook leans back in his chair, a cocky expression on his face. He yelps when Jimin kicks him in the shin, rubbing at the sore spot.

"Stop boasting and finish eating," he points at Jungkook's ramen with his chopsticks.

"Yes, mom," Jungkook smirks when Jimin groans. "What about your parents? Do you get along?" He asks before taking a bite of his food.

"It's complicated," Jimin sighs. "It's a conversation for another day."

"Got it," Jungkook says. He won't push. Jimin will tell him when he's ready.

They smile at each other and quickly finish eating. They clear their table and decide to call it a day. Jimin has to pick Haewon up from Seokjin's in an hour. They walk to the parking lot and get into Jimin's car to drive back to Taehyung's apartment.

"Do you have your licence?" Jimin asks.

"Yeah, I just don't have a car."

"No car, no apartment. You're a real catch," Jimin jokes and it makes Jungkook laugh. "At least you have a nice dick."

"That's really all I need to get by."

"Exactly," Jimin points at himself, "that's how you got yourself a sugar daddy."

"Shouldn't you give me money if I'm your sugar baby? I just paid for your food. I think we're doing this whole thing wrong," Jungkook frowns.

"You didn't score a very rich sugar daddy, I'm afraid. But at least I'm young and hot."

"You're definitely hot," Jungkook nods, "I don't know about young though." That earns him a slap on the shoulder.

"At least I'm not wrinkly," he glares and points at Jungkook menacingly when he opens his mouth to deny it. "Don't you dare."

"I got myself a bossy sugar daddy. A bossy power bottom."

"I haven't been very power bottom-ish with you," Jimin frowns.

"Are you usually?" Jungkook turns to look at him.

"I've never really tried but I'm not opposed to the idea."

"Yeah, me neither. I love that idea a lot. It'd be so hot if you told me what to do and rode me into the mattress. I'm getting horny just thinking about it," Jungkook pretends to fan himself and it makes Jimin laugh.

"That actually sounds nice."

"Wanna pull over and do it?" Jungkook wiggles his eyebrows.

"We're in the middle of Seoul, there's no way I can pull over."

"That sucks," Jungkook pouts. "How are we ever gonna have spontaneous car sex?"

"If we ever go on a road trip."

"Oh my god," Jungkook puts his hands over his heart, "are you asking me on a romantic couple's weekend away?"

"I might be your sugar daddy but I don't actually have a beach house we can go to."

"I want a new sugar daddy then."

"Shut up," Jimin laughs, shoving Jungkook against the passenger seat window.

Comfortable silence settle over the car. The sun is slowly setting, casting an orange glow over the bustling city. The radio is playing softly, the car smells like them. It smells like Haewon too, there's a hint of peach that's always mixed with Jimin's scent. The car smells nice, it smells like love and happiness.

"I'm kidding by the way," Jimin says after a while. "You are a catch."

"I know you're kidding, baby," Jungkook smiles. It's so sweet that Jimin wants to make sure Jungkook knows.

They drive for five more minutes before they arrive to Taehyung's apartment. Jimin stops the car and smiles at Jungkook. He looks so beautiful with his warm brown eyes and plump pink lips. Jungkook doesn't want to leave him. He wants to take Jimin upstairs and make love to him. Wants to kiss every inch of his body and take care of him until he's worn out and sated.

"Don't do that," Jimin whispers.

"Do what?"

"Your scent."

Jungkook smirks and leans over the console until their faces are only a few inches away. Jimin doesn't lean back. Jungkook brush their noses together and then their lips. Jimin's lips feel soft and when Jungkook kisses him they taste sweet. Jungkook can't control his scent, not when he's around Jimin.

Jungkook cups one side of Jimin's face and tilts his head to deepen the kiss. He licks at Jimin's bottom lip and groans into the kiss when his scent turns sweeter. It's intoxicating how good he smells. Jungkook wants to drown in it, he wants to consume Jimin whole. He wants to feel every inch of his body against his, wants to kiss and claim.

Jimin buries his hands in Jungkook's hair and whimpers when Jungkook sucks on his tongue. Jungkook grips his waist harder than he means to but it makes Jimin moan. Jungkook doesn't know how long they kiss but it's getting really warm in the car, so warm the windows are starting to fog. Jungkook's hands are under Jimin's shirt and Jimin's darling moans go straight to his cock.

Jungkook is about to grope Jimin's ass when a knock on the window interrupts them. They quickly break apart and look for the source of the disturbance. It's Taehyung.

"For fucks sake," Jungkook groans.

"Oh my god," Jimin pushes Jungkook away and rearranges himself as best as he can.

Jungkook leans over the console again and opens the car door on Jimin's side. A cold breeze seeps into the car and makes them shiver.

"Not to be a cockblocker but you've offended a lot of passersby with your steamy make out session," Taehyung says. He's leaning against the car door and smirking. "Hi, I'm Taehyung," he bows to Jimin.

"Oh!" Jimin's eyes widen. He hurries out of the car, tugging on his shirt to make himself look presentable and bows at Taehyung. "Nice to meet you, I'm Jimin."

Jungkook groans one last time and gets out of the car as well. His half chub is already gone but he's still very much horny.

"You're even prettier up close," Taehyung says.

"Up close?" Jimin frowns. "You've seen me before?"

"Jungkook and I hid behind a bush once to observe you. You were talking to Yoongi hyung and Jungkook was freaking out."

"Taehyung," Jungkook warns. He walks around the car and Jimin has a shit eating grin on his face.

"Jealous?" he asks.

"I wasn't jealous," Jungkook denies.

"He was totally jealous," Taehyung says. Jungkook glares at him.

"You know Yoongi?" Jimin asks Taehyung. Jungkook wraps his arm around his waist.

"Kind of," Taehyung shrugs, "I visit his pet shop a lot." Jimin nods. "How was your date?"

"Really good," Jimin answers, beaming. "He treats me well," he turns to Jungkook and wraps his own arm around his waist.

"He's a good boy," Taehyung nods. "I raised him well." It makes Jimin laugh.

"He is."

"If you guys want the apartment to yourselves," Taehyung points to the building behind him, "I can just go visit a friend for a little while. I didn't mean to interrupt your date."

Jimin's eyes widen and he looks at Jungkook like he doesn't know what to say. Jungkook smiles at him and kisses the side of his head.

"Thanks Tae but Jimin has to go pick up his daughter."

"Oh, Haewon, right?" Taehyung asks and Jimin nods. "Do you have a picture of her I'd love to see what she looks like, I love kids."

"Really?" Jimin sounds shy but his scent is filled with joy. It makes Jungkook smiles. "Okay. I actually have a lot of pictures."

"Show me," Taehyung says excitedly. He walks to Jimin's other side to look at his phone.

Jungkook's whole world is right here. His best friend in the entire world and the man of his dreams are cooing over pictures of Haewon. Jungkook's chest fills with warmth. He feels so happy right now. Jimin's laughing at something Taehyung says and Taehyung throws Jungkook a glance that means "I like him" .

Jungkook knew they would get along. Taehyung is very good at making friends and at making people feel comfortable. When Jungkook met Hoseok he felt nervous but the older alpha instantly made him feel at ease. There's no anxiety in Jimin's scent, he seems perfectly fine.

It means the world to Jungkook that the two most important people in his life get along. He's grateful for Taehyung. He's grateful that he's being so nice to Jimin when he's usually weary of the people Jungkook hangs out with. He's the protective type too and he's seen Jungkook get hurt by people before.

He knows that Jimin is very important to Jungkook and he's treating him like a friend already. Jungkook is lucky to have such a supportive friend.

Jungkook stands to the side and simply smiles at them. They talk for a good five minutes before Jimin looks at the time on his phone.

"I really have to go now," Jimin sounds disappointed. "It was really nice to meet you Taehyung."

"You too, Jimin," Taehyung says. Jimin startles when Taehyung hugs him but he recovers quickly, wrapping his arms around his waist. "Can I ask Jungkook for your number? I'd love to keep in touch," Taehyung says when they seperate.

"Sure," Jimin nods and smiles at him.

"Okay, well, I'll leave you guys to it."

Taehyung winks at Jungkook and waves at Jimin before heading inside the building. Jungkook shakes his head before wrapping his arms around Jimin's waist. Jimin smiles up at him and wraps his arms around his neck.

"He's really nice. I can see why he's your best friend," Jimin says.

"I can tell he likes you."

"He's very handsome too."

"Are you jealous?" Jungkook smirks.

"No, I'm just saying. Maybe I'm into omegas after all."

"Hey now," Jungkook pouts, "don't leave me for my best friend."

"I like you too much to leave you."

Jungkook hums and kisses Jimin. Jimin smiles into the kiss and strokes the back of Jungkook's head. Jungkook doesn't want to let him go, he wants to keep him in his arms forever.

They stare at each other in silence, none of them is willing to burst their perfect little bubble. Time feels so short when he's with Jimin. It's always hard to say goodbye even when they know they'll see each other again.

It's hard for Jungkook to believe that Jimin is his now. He's all his. All his to spoil, to kiss, to touch. Well, unofficially he is.

Now is the perfect time to change that.

"Hey," Jungkook whispers as he rubs their noses together.

"Mmh?" Jimin's eyes are closed, he looks peaceful.

"Be my boyfriend."

Jimin's eyes flutter open and Jungkook can't tell what he's thinking. Jimin stares at him for way too long, Jungkook can feel his heart beating in his throat.

"Took you long enough," Jimin says. He smirks at Jungkook.

"You're a dickhead," Jungkook rolls his eyes and tries to push him away but Jimin tightens his grip around his neck.

"You can't call your boyfriend a dickhead."

"I don't have a boyfriend."

"Me," Jimin whines. He peppers kisses all over Jungkook's face. Jungkook tries to struggle against his hold but he's not really trying. "Give your boyfriend a kiss."

Jungkook groans before grabbing Jimin's thighs and lifting him off of the floor. Jimin releases a surprised yelp and wraps his legs around Jungkook's waist. Jungkook pushes him against the car and catches his lips into a heady kiss. Jimin melts in Jungkook's arms, moaning against his lips.

Jungkook slides his tongue in Jimin's mouth and gropes his ass. If he could he'd fuck him right here, out in the open for everyone to see. Instead, he kisses him harder and pours all of his feelings into it. Jimin drives him crazy, everything he does. He wants him so bad it hurts, even when he has him it hurts how much he wants him. He's his, his, his.

No one else can have him.

Jungkook bites on Jimin's bottom lip and growls "Mine" against his mouth. Jimin whimpers and tugs on Jungkook's hair. He kisses Jungkook harder, pouring his own feelings into the kiss. Jungkook can tell how desperate he is to feel him too. It's in the way he hugs Jungkook closer to his chest, in the way he sucks on Jungkook's tongue and in the way he smells like he's ready to take his alpha's cock.

Jungkook has to fight his alpha instincts not to rip Jimin's jeans off and slide his cock into his wet heat.

Jungkook squeezes Jimin's ass one last time before wrapping his arms around his waist. He sucks on Jimin's bottom lip and then breaks the kiss. Jimin chases after his lips, whining in the back of his throat. It makes Jungkook's dick twitch.

"Alpha," Jimin whispers. Jungkook's breath gets caught in his throat. "Alpha." Jimin desperately tries to connect their lips again but Jungkook turns his head to the side. Jimin's scent turns distressed.

"Shh, omega," Jungkook rubs his nose against Jimin's cheek to soothe him. "My gorgeous omega."

"Kiss," Jimin whines into Jungkook's ear. He sounds so fucking sweet, Jungkook wants to ravish him.

Jungkook shushes him and runs his hands up and down his back. He holds his omega until he stops whining, until his heartbeat slows down to a normal pace. The distress in his scent slowly seeps away to be replaced by contentedness. Jimin rests his head on Jungkook's shoulder, arms loose around his neck. He starts purring against Jungkook's chest when Jungkook nuzzles into his scent gland.

Jungkook scents him until he comes back to himself. Jimin peppers kisses up Jungkook's neck until he reaches his ear.

"Mine," he whispers. It makes Jungkook shiver.

"Yours."

Jungkook holds him for a little bit longer just because he can. Then he moves away from the car and puts Jimin back on the floor. He doesn't let go of him, arms still wrapped around his waist. Jimin connects their foreheads and closes his eyes.

"I've never felt this way before," he breathes out.

"Me neither," Jungkook hugs him tighter. "I want you so bad."

Jimin smiles and opens his eyes. "You have me."

"I don't want you to leave."

"I know," Jimin strokes Jungkook's cheek with reverence. "I don't want to leave you either."

Jungkook breathes Jimin in before kissing his forehead. He slowly unwraps his arms from his waist, putting distance between their bodies. His alpha doesn't like that. He's clawing at Jungkook's skin to get his hands on Jimin again.

"I should go," Jimin says reluctantly. He smiles at Jungkook. "Your hair is a mess."

Jungkook runs a hand through it. "Whose fault is that?"

Jimin laughs and rearranges Jungkook's hair until it looks normal again. Jungkook cups his face and kisses him on the lips.

"Text me when you get home."

"Okay, I will," Jimin nods.

"Okay."

"Okay."

Jungkook laughs before pushing Jimin in the driver's seat. "Go now."

"Alright, alright," Jimin nods. He closes the door and opens the window instead. He turns the ignition on and looks at Jungkook.

"Goodbye boyfriend," he beams.

"And I'm the cheesy one?"

"Goodbye ex-boyfriend."

Jungkook laughs and sticks his head inside the car to peck Jimin's lips. "Goodbye baby."

Jimin smiles at him one last time before leaving. Jungkook stands there until he can't see the car anymore, heart fluttering in his chest. It takes him a good five minutes to realize he's standing in the middle of the sidewalk with stupid smile on his face.

He walks inside Taehyung's apartment building and takes the elevator. He can't stop thinking about Jimin. His scent is all over him, his lips are sore from all the kissing and he can still feel the ghost of Jimin's body on his hands.

Jungkook enters the apartment and takes off his shoes and coat. Taehyung is in the kitchen. The counter is full of snacks and drinks.

"Whoa," Jungkook says, "are we having a movie night?"

"You stink," Taehyung scrunches his nose up when he says it.

"Thanks," Jungkook leans against the counter. "What's all this?"

"My survival kit."

"Your what?" Jungkook frowns.

"It's for my heat. It's gonna hit some time next week so I'm getting ready."

Jungkook has been so busy with life that he forgot Taehyung's heat is approaching. He's usually the one who buys him his favorite snacks and makes sure he has everything he needs in his room.

"Can I do something to help?"

"No, I'm all set," Taehyung smiles. "Just... obviously you can't be here during my heat. I don't mean to kick you out but," he scratches the back of his head, "you're gonna have to find somewhere to stay for a few days."

"That's fine," Jungkook gives him a reassuring smile. "I'll figure something out, don't worry."

"Are you sure? I can ask one of my friends if you can crash at their place. They won't mind."

"No, no, seriously I'll be fine Tae. I don't wanna bother your friends."

"I feel bad."

"Don't," Jungkook walks up to him and wraps an arm around his shoulders, "you're already kind enough to let me stay here. I'll figure something out. Don't worry about me, focus on getting ready for your heat, okay?"

"Okay," Taehyung sighs but he still looks worried.

Jungkook doesn't really know where he's gonna stay for a week but he doesn't want his friend to worry. Heats are hard enough as they are, Taehyung needs to be relaxed and comfortable. Jungkook doesn't want to be a burden.

He'll figure something out and if it means sleeping outside for a week, then so be it.

............&............

Jungkook sighs when he looks at the little money he has left in his bank account.

When he moved in with Taehyung, Taehyung refused to let him pay part of the rent. Jungkook refused to stay there without paying for anything so they compromised. Jungkook pays for their food every month.

He doesn't get paid for another week and right now he's a little short on money which he needs to pay for a hotel room. Taehyung's heat can last up to five days which means he'd have to pay for four or five nights. That shit is more expensive than he thought.

He's been browsing the internet for the past three days, looking for the cheapest option but he still hasn't settled on one.

Jungkook slumps on his bench. He has an art class in thirty minutes so he's just waiting in front of the arts building. Taehyung went home already so Jungkook is alone and bored. He's also worried because if he can't pay for a hotel then he really will have to stay out in the streets.

Jungkook jumps when his phone vibrates in his hand. He smiles when he sees the caller ID. It's Jimin.

"Hello."

"Hey," Jimin's voice is so soft and pretty it makes Jungkook shiver.

They haven't seen each other since their date but they've been texting non stop. Jungkook can feel the withdrawals already. He needs to see and touch Jimin soon otherwise he'll go insane.

"Are you done with work already?"

"No, I have a fifteen minutes break, I thought I'd call you."

"Shouldn't you be resting?"

"Are you complaining?"

"No, I love talking to my baby," Jungkook smirks. Jimin chuckles. "I miss you."

"We talk every day."

"Still, I miss your kisses."

"I do give good kisses," Jimin says. Jungkook can hear the smile in his voice.

"The best."

"What are you up to?"

Jungkook sighs heavily. He hasn't told Jimin that Taehyung's heat is coming up and that he's looking for a place to stay. Not that he has anything to hide but he doesn't want to worry him. He wanted to tell him when he figured something out. So far, he's just omitted to say it to Jimin but now that Jimin's asking him what he's doing, he can't lie. He doesn't want to lie.

"I was looking for a hotel."

"A hotel?" Jimin sounds confused. "Are you planning a romantic date or something?"

"I wish," Jungkook sighs. "Taehyung's heat is close so I have to be out of the apartment for a few days."

"Oh," Jimin says. "How close is it?"

"Like, pretty fucking close. It could hit at any moment this week."

"You're staying with him now? Even during his pre-heat?"

"Yeah," Jungkook chuckles, "it hasn't been the best few days because he's moody but he says he doesn't mind me being there. I still have to find a place to stay as quick as possible."

Jimin doesn't say anything for a little while. Long enough for Jungkook to worry.

"Jimin?"

"Sorry," Jimin clears his throat but he doesn't say anything else.

"Are you okay?" Jungkook frowns when Jimin sighs. Jungkook wishes he could see him right now, he'd instantly know what's wrong.

"My omega isn't very happy," Jimin mumbles. It's so quiet Jungkook can barely hear him.

"What?"

"My omega's bothered by the fact you're staying with another omega in pre-heat."

"Oh."

"Yeah," Jimin whispers. "I know it's nothing. I know nothing will happen but my omega hates it."

Weirdly enough, heat starts to pool in the pit of Jungkook's stomach. His alpha is very pleased by the admission. His omega is jealous. It's both cute and sexy.

"Okay," Jungkook nods, "alright, well, I'll book a hotel for tonight."

"What?" Jimin sounds surprised. "No, Jungkook, don't. It doesn't matter if my omega is jealous, you don't have to stay at a hotel just because of that."

"It matters to me," Jungkook smiles. "I don't wanna upset my omega."

"Jungkook," Jimin sighs.

"Look, I have to find a hotel anyway so it's whatever."

"You can stay at my place."

Jungkook's heart skips a beat. He never expected Jimin to say that. He never even considered staying at Jimin's place. He doesn't want to impose himself on him. He can't believe Jimin just said that.

"Wait, what?"

"Stay with me."

"I can't, Jimin," Jungkook shakes his head.

"Why not? There's room at my place, it's not a problem."

"What about Haewon? Wouldn't she be confused?"

"I mean," Jimin says, "we have friends over all the time, it's not a big deal."

He doesn't sound very convincing which is just another reason to say no. Jimin is way too generous.

"Well, we're not really friends, are we?" Jungkook says. Jimin hums. "And she knows that. It's too much, Jimin, I can't accept."

"Are you saying no because you're scared of Haewon?"

"What?" Jungkook scoffs. "Me? Scared of Haewon? Never."

"You're terrified of her."

"No, I'm not," Jungkook is pouting.

"She likes you, you know."

"Does she? Does she really? You're just making shit up now."

"I'm not," Jimin laughs. "She asks about you a lot, because your scent is on me all the time. She won't mind. I don't mind. Please, babe. Let me do this for you."

Jungkook sighs heavily. How can he say no to that?

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Are you a hundred percent sure? I don't want you to feel obligated to let me stay with you. I know we're boyfriends and all but I'm not expecting anything from you."

"I know that, angel," Jimin says. Jungkook almost gasps at the pet name. "I'm offering because I want to. Stop being so difficult."

"Okay."

"Okay?"

"Yeah, okay, I'll stay at your place during Tae's heat."

"Good," Jimin sounds overjoyed, it makes Jungkook smile. "I'll pick you up after work, then."

"Alright," Jungkook nods. "My class is gonna start soon, baby, I have to go."

"Yeah, my break is over, I have to go too. See you later, babe."

"Thank you, Jimin. I really appreciate it."

"Anything for you."

"Bye, baby," Jungkook smiles.

"Bye."

Jungkook hangs up and sighs. So, he definitely figured something out. He won't sleep in the streets. He's going to sleep at his boyfriend's house. Where he lives with his daughter. Jungkook feels even more nervous now than he did when he was looking at hotel rooms prices.

And yet, he's never been more excited about something in his life.
