bad, bad, bad idea
monday came along too slow for renjun - jaemin hadn't messaged him since friday right after school, telling the omega he and jeno couldn't come over as they had to visit somebody
he understood completely - it's not like they were in a relationship with him.. he just didn't expect to have zero contact with his minnie following said message
jeno had talked to him.. barely. his texts were blunt and there had been one phone call, telling renjun that jisung was with them and minhyung at the latter's house on saturday night
he didn't want to get upset, truthfully, but it did hurt when these were the two people who had talked with him every day and didn't leave him hanging, like now
he had sluggishly dragged his feet down the school hallway, almost tripping on the way to his year's floor, and let himself half-arse walk to his locker
the candyfloss-haired boy laid his cheek on the cold surface of his locker, eyes closing as he dozed off where he stood
he must've been picked up by somebody, because when he came to, he was settled in the library with an arm around his waist, rubbing on his stomach in slow circles as his head was resting on their lap
he didn't even need to ask who he was peacefully resting on, just sighing in relief and closing his eyes as he found himself falling asleep yet again, this time with jeno's hand in between both of his
renjun lay his head on chenle's shoulder, whimpering as the other omega shuffled
"what is it with you and not sleeping lately.." chenle muttered to himself, but it seemed to catch the attention of jisung, who could only frown as he watched his brother give up on fighting sleep
"what do you mean not sleeping lately?" he asked his boyfriend, who only sighed
"it's only been about a week, but he's hardly slept - he doesn't tell anyone but i can just smell his fatigue," chenle shivered "he hides it well for an omega, i literally had to pin him down yesterday and smell the scent gland on his ankle" he cringed "haven't you two seen him over the weekend? i'm pretty sure you would've smelt it straight away" he went on, talking about how they should all take more notice of other people
jaemin could only stare at renjun, watching as the omega slept quietly on chenle's shoulder, his pretty lips parted and little hands holding the other omega's jacket, unconsciously releasing his scent as a form of comfort
"why has nobody actually talked to injun?" chenle's voice cut off the alpha's thoughts "i'm not stupid - why have none of you even bothered to check up on him?" he jabbed his fingers at his boyfriend, minhyung and the two alphas sat across from him "the next time you guys leave him hanging i will personally end you all" it sounded like an empty threat, but chenle was the most serious when it came to people he loved
last lesson dragged so much renjun was almost sure he'd meet his death bed when it was over, sitting in his seat for a minute after class finished before he gathered his belongings and left, bag tucked comfortably on his shoulders as he rubbed his eyes cutely, nose scrunching as he yawned
he waddled down the third year hallway, bouncing down the stairs before making his way to the school entrance, still a little tired but feeling better after one of his classmates, a girl named choi jisu, gave him some little sweets to eat so he didn't fall asleep
an arm wrapped around his waist as soon as he left the building, blinking at the sight of jeno and jaemin still on the grounds
"hm, jen..?" he nuzzled his nose into jeno's shoulder, letting himself be guided to the latter's car
he thought that they didn't want to walk with him - jaemin looked as if somebody had killed everyone he cared about and jeno looked quite irritated himself, but whenever he stopped at a light he would reach over and rub his thumb along jaemin's arm, and renjun had learnt that that was how you calmed jaemin down
but why was jaemin so angry? had somebody said something to him or jeno that had riled them up like this? renjun's head hurt - he didn't even want to be in the car at this point, feeling nauseas at all the possible reasons
jeno stopped infront of possibly the largest house renjun had ever seen, and the omega could only let his eyes wander as jeno took his hand and lead him inside, jaemin ahead of them with his fists clenching and unclenching
he jumped as somebody appeared, a kind smile on their face
"is this injun?" they asked, eyes big and twinkling at the small teenager
renjun hid himself behind jeno, nervously looking at the man and pouting as his eyes teared up
another pair of hands settled on his hips, and jaemin gently pulled him out from behind jeno, planting a soft kiss on the back of renjun's head
he turned to jeno, who could only sigh and crouch down infront of renjun, taking the omega's small hands into his
"baby they want you to come with us for a meeting"
