How Did You End Up As Mates?

Bubbles and Thorns

☯︎︎

Jungkook was just a newly presented and young alpha when he joined BigHit. He was truly inspired by Namjoon and up to the present, the maknae truly thanks the leader. If he weren't to become inspired by the rapper, then he would never meet the one who would steal his attention. Jungkook doesn't regret a single choice he made to become a trainee and lineup of BTS.

Taehyung. Kim Taehyung.

That was the man's name the omega introduced himself to Jungkook. His voice was quite deep compared to his gentle looks, ears betraying his eyes. Other than shock, Jungkook was beyond awestruck by the cute features of his colleague that he'll work from now on. That cute smile on his lips is so ducking adorable- his cheeks become bigger and the alpha just wants to pinch them, moreover touch the soft skin. Then the smell of sweet rose petals fills his lungs.

The younger vocalist's mouth slips and unfortunately, it's loud and clear. "Mate..." Taehyung blinks at the maknae with a safe but confused look. It's beyond embarrassing for the young alpha and the tips of his ears are burning hot. Mind clouded with jumbled up words to excuse himself moreover cover up the awkward silence between them.

The omega's expression grows with an apologetic smile. "Sorry, Jungkook, I have to take this call." Boy is the vocalist glad this came in time.

He shakes his head and replaced his panicked face with a smile. "It's fine."

Right when the older turns around and answers the phone, the sudden behavior is unlike what Jungkook met before. "Yah! Park Jimin! Why are you so late?! I've been waiting and it's been half an hour. Up to the point where everyone is already here!" The maknae flinches at the loudness, taking a step back.

"I'm just going to introduce myself to the others if you don't mind.." He points down the hall.

"I don't mind!" Taehyung flashes a sweet smile again before turning his attention to this Park Jimin boy.

The alpha makes his way down the halls until he's definitely out of sight and unable to hear Taehyun yelling. He can feel his heart beating fast and inner alpha running happily with the new interaction of the omega. He can't deny that he really wants the older, too scared to say anything. After all, he's too young to start courting just yet.

Moving to another mindset, he straightens his posture up and clears his throat. He should get to know their leader first and if he remembers correctly, Namjoon should be in his room. It's easy to find the older's room since the place is somewhat small, a hand on the door knob. Excited to meet his admirer and to work with the man, he opens the door.

"Hello, I'm-" He meets eyes with the rapper, but notices that the lower half of the latter's body is only in its undergarments. "Jeon Jungkook..."

"This is awkward," The taller says anxiously.

Everyone has grown comfortable around each other soon and easily. Taehyung was a bright and touchy man who'd joke a lot; filled with so much laughter. It's always cute. Sometimes, the omega can't take many words seriously; everyone is still young and maturing soon, enjoying their youth as much as they can. And Jungkook had to say what's been bottled up in him for two years.

"You're my mate, I just know it." Alpha senses and instincts can be stronger than many omegas and Jungkook believe it's Taehyung. The other looks at him and goes silent. "Come on, Kook, we need to finish our drinks and head back to the dance studio." Completely thrown off course and it sends the alpha in the opposite direction of hope; despair.
