Reki had long since gotten used to being treated poorly. Had gotten used to being called 'inferior' and 'incompetent'.

He was an omega, after all, everyone who wasn't an omega seemed to have something against him- sometimes the insults weren't that bad, and other times they were so bad it got physical.

It had also been a long time since Reki had gone without blockers. He had been covering his pheromones from other people by taking scent blockers for about one and a half years and had been hiding his identity as a beta ever since.

It was strange when he had presented, at the measly age of 16, his mother hadn't expected him to be an omega either since there hadn't been an omega in their family line for a long time. 'Must come from your fathers' side' she had said, sitting beside Reki on that fateful day.

Whilst Reki was never particularly close with his father, it felt a little bit like he had gotten closer to him. Or just his fathers side of the family in general- and, at the time, he was okay with being an omega.

That was all before high school started, though, and his scent had become increasingly potent since then.

People would often make fun of him because his scent was so strong, even the teachers found it distracting.

It was the day when he had been sent to the nurse's office, during his sports lesson, because his scent was so strong he had to leave.

'It might be a good idea to look for scent blockers.' The nurse had said, 'We can't force you, of course, but your scent is very strong and it might help you feel more comfortable in a school environment.'

Reki hates that she was right, and as soon as he had started taking blockers people began talking to him again like they did in middle school.

He even made a few friends, though he didn't yet feel comfortable making friends with alphas, people seemed to be forgetting he was even an omega in the first place.

He had taken up skating with one of his closest beta friends, and he was living life to the fullest.

As always, though, not everything could stay all positive and perfect.

He lost his best friend, who ended their friendship because of a skating accident. Reki was heartbroken, even as he attempted to reform the friendship he had lost- being ignored in class and corridors was enough to make Reki realise he had to let his beta friend go.

His mother had told him 'Omegas often get attached to people,' she watched Reki sobbing face down into the table, 'Oh baby, go to your nest for a while. Things will get better, I promise.'

Things had eventually, in the end, got a little easier. But Reki still hadn't filled that hole in his heart from losing someone close to him.

Then there was today.

He had forgotten to take his blockers on the day a new student had transferred.

Almost everyone in the class had gotten used to the fact Reki would forget his blockers sometimes, and because it only happened every so often his scent wasn't ever as strong as it used to be. Reki never let his blockers fully leave his system.

But right now, there was a complete stranger who hadn't ever smelt Reki before.

And that icy blue gaze seemed to be the confirmation Reki had been looking for.

This new student was an alpha.

-

"I'm Hasegawa Langa," The boy started, his face feigning confidence. Even though this boy was an alpha, Reki could tell he wasn't as overly confident as the other alphas in his class.
