"Chenle, save those fists for when you truly need them. Step Number Two towards reforming you: keep your reactions under control."
"Ew, imagine having self-control."

"Hyuuuck, I've been deprived of your sexy self," Chenle complained and high-fived his friend as they met up at the lockers. Mark and Jisung were attached either side of Donghyuck, having spent the morning with him before classes. They had around ten minutes before the first class would start.
"It's you who called the teacher an ass, so it's on you."
Jisung moved towards Chenle and glued to his side instead, leaving Mark to dote over the other omega. It had been much quieter this morning without Chenle. "Did Jeno and Jaemin attend? Or did they skip the detention?"
"Attended. But aren't you happy that I did too? I could've skipped and gotten a suspension."
Jisung only ruffled the boy's hair like he did last night, finding him cute.
The omega sighed a hum when the alpha's exposed wrist leaked the smell stronger. "Damn peppermint, sneaking up into my top three favourite scents."
Mark and Donghyuck watched the interaction warmly. It was an oddity that an alpha and omega could get along so well, and even more so when they had kinda been pushed into it by Mr. Park.
"Chenle," Jisung chuckled, almost wanting to coo over how small the boy looked when his hand was on his head, "you literally smelt me last night."
True, Chenle thought, but for some reason, he wasn't fully calm until he smelled it. Strange but true. It was like how certain scents attracted certain people, and Jisung's drew in the ravenette.

"For years and years, omegas were the inferior subgroup. Alphas owned positions of high power while betas occupied the lower ranks, taking on jobs such as secretaries, advisors and farmers. The omegas were stay-at-home partners and were subjected to strong inequality. They were thought to be bearers of children and a grace to the public eye, having to adopt submissive personas in order to avoid conflict."
The teacher spoke and spoke and Chenle sighed, turning to look at Jisung. He wanted badly to drag him out of his concentration. It was what he did best.
"It wasn't until recently that omegas' rights came into play. It was commonplace for harassment and assault, and although much of it has been stamped out, the instinct remaining in the subgroups still drives a hefty percentage of the population in today's world. You should all be paying attention because this concerns every one of you."
The omega leaned over to Jisung and whispered into his ear. "Isn't this the fourth time she's covered this chapter?"
He shushed him and told him to pay attention.
"There's a lot of responsibility riding on the shoulders of your generation in a push towards full equality. Alphas have to be able to control themselves in order to function in society-"
