SECOND TRIAL | tk | ✓

37. DESERVING?

one might think the things at min-jung household will be sweet and serene as cherry blossoms now.
but sadly and foolishly, the trio though progressed from the stage of screams are cries are now acting more in the lines of shy teenagers with their first love.

its almost painful the way they skirts around each other, blushing and nervous smiles, stolen glances and squirms; they just dont know how to progress their relationship now that they found all of them like each other.

even yoongi and hoseok who used to be practically glued to each other, now maintains a distance inorder to not make jimin uncomfortable or feel left out.

and jimin with his sweet omega scents, tight leggings and overhanging sweaters; both dominants are left with trying to not jump him before they clear steer of the mess.

as to end their sorrows, yoongi and hoseok came up with the idea of 'courting'. even if they are considered as old fashioned customs, hoseok had courted yoongi for an year until they made things official. so its only fair for them to give jimin the same.

so thats how they found themselves at the mall, getting their jobs done early, going from chanel to gucci to saint laurent and a peak at balenciaga trying to find a perfect gift for the omega.

its easier said than done because both of them think jimin can look good in anything and that exactly is their despair, and a hefty sum off their black card later, hoseok somehow had his arms full of shopping banks while yoongi carried one giant teddy bear on his own.

both of them couldn't keep the smiles off their faces, giddy, the guilt they carry on seeing jimin stuck in the home pacified for now as they bound onto their car and headed for their home.

ten minutes onto the road and they understood they're being followed.

now, their residence is not really a big secret: though the house is equipped with top security systems and both lovers are capable of protecting themselves. besides no sane person would try to harm them knowing they would be under the wrath of the jeons.

but things aren't the same now- because jimin is a secret they are hiding from everyone and even a little slip up can end up bad for all three of them.

so they had steered away from the original route, called for back up and faced the people following them on an abandoned road.

things are always messy, especially these budding gangs who try for simpler ways to power. thankfully there were no bodies, hoseok left them go with warnings alongwith enough injuries to have them in bedrest for weeks.

and as the two of them returned back home, gifts still safe in back seats, there was no happiness pertaining except the cold reality of their life;
that no matter how they try to mask it, a life with three of them in picture, its hopeless.

but its still heartwarming the way they chorus a "we're home!", followed by jimins pattering feets and oreos curious eyes.

its sweet the way jimins crescent eyes would widen and the omega would start fussing over the minor injuries on hoseok and yoongi.
when jimins deep eyes would start filling with tears as he unnecessarily haul out an entire first aid kit to treat them would have hoseok and yoongi sharing looks; a realization that jimin is too good for them, too pure to live like this, are they deserving of his love?

but they indulge whatever of it they can get as they sit put with soft smiles, on jimins stern orders to not move as the omega prepare their dinner.
a humble meal later, both the alpha and beta get out their gifts and all of it is worth to see jimin look so speechless and wide eyed.

and jimin would think the exact same;
was he deserving of all this, all their love?
