Kai's phone was vibrating in his pocket. 

The black-haired omega in front of him heard the sound too and paused in his speech. He smiled at Kai while gesturing for him to receive the call. Kai shot him a grateful mumble of thanks before quickly checking who was calling. It was his boyfriend, Soobin. Well, one of his four boyfriends. 

"Kai? Where are you?" Soobin's voice cracked through the speaker of the phone for a second before it became stable. 

"Ah, I was just discussing about our project with Dongju-ssi," Kai said quietly back to him, glancing at the quieter omega who was looking around to distract himself. "Why did you ask, hyung?"

"We're going to Jin-hyung's restaurant for dinner," Soobin's voice was laced with the background noises of giggling– probably Taehyun and Beomgyu, Kai guessed from the sounds. "It's getting late so just meet us there, okay? Don't take too long and shoot me a message every now and then to let me know where you are!"

"Yeah, hyung, I'll be there," Kai promised. Soobin hummed and murmured a soft goodbye before hanging up and Kai turned to the petite omega in front of him. "Sorry for the interruption, Dongju-ssi..."

"It's okay," the boy smiled gently at him, his omega nature pushing through like always. "I'm assuming that you have to leave now?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry," the flustered beta bowed in apology but Dongju just laughed. 

"Don't be, it's okay," he smiled. "We will continue this tonight, then? I will message you the updates on the presentation."

"Yeah, I will make sure to check for it before going to sleep tonight," Kai promised. Dongju smiled and waved to him before leaving the brown haired beta alone near the campus gates. 

Kai heard the sound of the bus's horn and dashed towards the bus-stop to catch the vehicle before it left. Their favourite restaurant was two stops away from their university so Kai usually took the bus.

"Thank you so much!" He said to the person who had told the driver about him and made him wait till Kai entered. He made his way to one of the empty seats and plopped down on one. He looked out of the window, staring at the darkening sky. 

His mind automatically switched to his four boyfriends that were currently waiting for him in their favourite restaurant. He quickly pulled out his phone to shoot a text to Taehyun, his go-to person regardless of the fact that he had 3 other boyfriends too. 

Kang Taehyun was Kai's childhood friend. The omega had formed a close bond with the energetic beta in their elementary school and somehow, they had stuck together ever since. Kai fell in love with him around the start of high school but before he could confess, Taehyun had started dating Choi Beomgyu, the alpha who played basketball in their highschool team. 

It had broken his heart but Kai had known that there wasn't much hope in the first place. While the world had progressed and now accepted all sorts of relationships between even betas and omegas and betas and alphas, it was still not that common. And Taehyun would obviously go for the softest alpha he could find. 

The worst part was that Beomgyu was really nice. Kai couldn't even hate him or find any reasons as to why Taehyun shouldn't date him. He knew that Beomgyu was the perfect match for Taehyun and it made him feel miserable and lonely. But the alpha and omega were more perceptive than that and had found out about his feelings by their second year.
