Destiny - RenHyuck FF

Part 3

The garden was covered in shades of orange and yellow from the sun's last rays of the day when Donghyuck opened his eyes and let out a groan.

"Yo, you finally awake?"

Glancing over to the once cocooned youngest that was now half hanging off the sofa while staring at his phone the older rolled his eyes.

"What time is it?"

"A little after eight. Doyoung-hyung came to tell us that dinner is ready so we could go down whenever we feel like eating a while ago."

"Then why are you still here? Shouldn't you be the first to stuff your face and grow stronger, brat?"

Donghyuck teased before Jisung rolled over and stood up with a smirk, seeing his hyung look up at him before walking down sassily.

"Just so you know hyung, I already outgrew you so it seems like you should worry about eating more yourself~"

Loud thumping followed this statement as the cheeky youngest ran down the stairs to escape the wrath of the tan alpha who would have spanked him for his behaviour.

Sluggishly dragging his still sleepy body downstairs Donghyuck's nose picked up the slightest traces of jasmine and smirked as he headed straight for the kitchen.

He expected to find Renjun there brewing his favourite drink, remembering well how even as kid the boy always carried his tea in a small thermos.

Getting ready to scare the shorter he suddenly jumped into the small area only to find it empty and without a trace of being used in the last hour or so making him frown slightly.

Maybe he made it earlier and the smell still lingers because nobody has walked around inside or opened the door to air it out.

Donghyuck shrugged but remembered that the shorter was around somewhere so he smiled evilly before going outside ready to annoy the living shit out of his friend.

Everyone was crowded around the tables set up with piles of food so the alpha joined them assuming to find the little goody-two-shoes there as well.

Taking a seat between Taeil and Mark he took a plate and started digging into the mouthwatering dishes completely forgetting his initial plan.

"Yah! Hands off, Jisung!"

The omega beside him warned before pulling a second plate filled with food closer to himself making Donghyuck look at them questioningly.

Since when did their oldest hyung not share his food with their youngest?

"Ah! Sorry, is that Renjun hyung's plate?"

Jisung looked apologetic for trying to steal food from his hyung's plate but the oldest only waved him off and offered his own plate instead, this making the alpha's curiosity increase.

"Will he not come eat with us?" Johnny asked curiously as to why the boy had decided to skip his meal.

"He rarely eats when there's many of us gathered like today, not feeling comfortable in crowds." Taeyong answered and it seemed like nobody questioned why the boy suddenly distanced himself.

Donghyuck silently listened to this exchange and found it weird but didn't want to comment seeing as nobody minded the absence of one person.

"Want me to take the plate to him while it's still hot?" Mark suddenly offered with his mouth still full but got a reply from Jaehyun this time.

"You need to find him first though. Renjun has become a master in finding quiet spots away from our usual chaos and often manages to blend in with his surroundings to the point that we have a hard time finding him.

"Really? But I was talking with him earlier at the small gazebo beside the pool, he was there reading a book when I spotted him." Mark said with a shrug but didn't miss how a few curious eyes turned his way.

Jisung scrunched up his nose from where he was sitting as he started at the older and Mark understood the meaning of it immediately.

"I know Jisung, I've already been told that I reek today so you don't have to worry about it."

Everyone aside from Donghyuck seemed to get the joke because the wolves broke out into loud fits of laughter agreeing that Mark had deserved it.

The tan alpha had felt confused and stood up claiming to go for a walk to digest his food faster so he can eat more, rounding the building and strolling towards the location by the pool.

He quietly approached the place Mark had told them about and almost turned around scoffing when he didn't see anyone only to feel something pull him towards the small wooden pavilion.

His steps took him right up to the side and only then did he spot a male curled up on his side among fluffy blankets and pillows sleeping soundly.

Donghyuck's eyes stopped on his face for a moment as he watched the black and white strands of hair cover the boy's eyes and the way his fist clutched the blue blanket that was covering him.

Every thought of pranking the other disappeared from his mind as he quietly stared at Renjun's sleeping form looking so small and soft.

Omega.

His eyes widened when the absurd thought crossed his mind and turned on his heels quickly to get away from the source of this weird picture his mind conjured.

The wolf inside of him growled in disapproval of the lack of scent surrounding the shorter male, feeling as if there should be something and as if that something was what he's been craving for.
