Two for One-NORENMIN

4

Jaemin wasn't given a work schedule by the weekend, although he wanted to since the shop is opened seven days a week, but he didn't ask Donghyuck or Renjun about it. He does have some things to do which is to bake. He was quite good when it comes to cooking but baking could be his kryptonite. As practice, he bakes a lot in their apartment and makes Donghyuck tastes them when he comes home.

Then an idea popped up into his mind.

"Should I bring some to the shop?" he asked himself while eating his breakfast that Donghyuck made which was mediocre to Jaemin's tastebuds. Fortunately, he has his coffee.

The beta hummed and decided too quick because of the thought the omega tasting his food. His love language is letting them taste whatever he cooks and hopefully, they like it. Jaemin's fine with baking...that's what he thinks. The only thing he's good at is not burning and putting the place on fire.

Jaemin stood right after he finished eating and went to clean up the place before he went out to buy some ingredients. Deep inside of him, he's just trying to impress Renjun.

It's been a few days and the fact that whenever Jaemin meets Renjun, he gets flustered and his heart just beats faster than it used to. Seriously, this isn't normal. Even how his scent just smells too good isn't normal.

Even if he does like the omega, it's a myth that omegas and betas can be together. Jaemin was thankful that he isn't an alpha or an omega just because he doesn't have to deal with ruts and heats but the downside being a beta was being mated. Betas are just paired with betas. Right now, Jaemin just somehow wished he's an alpha.

Jaemin doesn't have much charisma like an alpha's. His scent isn't strong but he has a subtle peach. His pheromones aren't that strong as well. He doesn't attract much attention. He was...'normal.' It was his first to feel frustrated at the idea of not being able to be enough for an omega.

The beta sighed.

Later that afternoon, Jaemin went to the grooming shop after he baked some cookies. Was he nervous? Yeah. He's anxious about the taste of it. If it ends up being bad, then he'll blame his mind for overthinking. His mind was preoccupied that he forgot what he did to make cookies.

He groaned, facepalming. Well, if it does end up bad, Donghyuck will eat it instead. He might even call Mark to come over and taste it with him. The last time he baked something bad was when he made a two-tier cake for a practice run and though it ended up badly for him, Chenle and Donghyuck ate it anyway.

Jaemin gets disappointed easily and that's his illness.

Arriving at the place, the beta pushed the glass door open. The chime echoed through the small area. The beta looked around and the strong scent of vanilla was prominent, making Jaemin to conclude that Renjun's around. The scent of cotton candy was also around.

"Jaem? Hey, what are you doing here?" Donghyuck showed up, who was currently putting some missing products on the shelves.

Jaemin goes in and walked over to his friend, "I just figured to bake some cookies and give you some."

The beta squinted his eyes at him, "Is that really for me?"

The other tensed, "W-Well...both you and Renjun."

"I thought so," Donghyuck uttered and placed down the basket he's holding, "Let's go. He's in the staff's room."

Jaemin hummed. They walked towards the counter and made their way in. The beta was half-anxious. His grip on the paper bag he has was tight and his heart wasn't in the right pace either. It's weird when they meet each other, consecutively, a few days now and he still wants to see Renjun with more time. Heck, half a day isn't enough!
