Bound to You | Seungbin

33

It was the next day and Changbin couldn't stop thinking about what the younger said the night before. He didn't know what to say to Seungmin so he decided to ignore it. He hid away in his room until the younger left before coming out. What should I do today? He thought. Maybe I will clean today. I should do something while staying here.

Changbin started vacuuming and dusting around and finished within the hour. Wiping the sweat off of his forehead he looked around satisfied. He looked at the clock and realized he still had the whole day left. Maybe I can go grab some lunch and pick up some groceries to make dinner? He thought. I should be fine right? He pushed the worry out of his mind and jumped into the shower thinking about everything that has happened the last few weeks. It's been such a whirlwind.

After his shower he got dressed and headed towards the front door, hesitating. I'll be fine, he thought. He took a deep breath and walked out of the door and paused. He sniffed the air and didn't smell anything. He took another deep breath and started walking outside the apartment complex. He was nervous, but felt okay at the moment.

Changbin headed in the direction of the closest grocery store when he stopped in his tracks. There were people all around and the smell of so many different pheromones hit him and he doubled over. He was overwhelmed and was feeling sick to his stomach. His heartbeat was pounding loudly in his ears and he was sweating now.

"Are you okay?" Someone had stopped and crouched down next to him to ask.

Changbin's hand was over his mouth, trying to keep himself from throwing up. He took a shaky breath and managed to stutter out a yes. He didn't even get a chance to look at the person when he got up and ran back towards the apartment. I didn't even make it far, thank god. That was so stupid. I don't know why I thought I could do this, but I can't stay holed up in this apartment forever, he thought.

Changbin made it back inside the apartment and quickly shut the door, breathing in Seungmin's lingering pheromones. He slid down the front door and felt exhausted all of sudden. He sat there for a while, his head leaning between his knees. At least I didn't throw up this time, he thought. 

Changbin finally got up and moved to the couch. He laid down, put his face into the blanket they were laying under last night and breathed in more of the younger's pheromones. He instantly felt calmer and moved to wrap the blanket around him, feeling secure under it. He must've fallen asleep when he heard the front door click open.

Seungmin wasn't surprised to see the older on the couch. He looks adorable, he thought. He watched as the older sat up, his curly hair all disheveled. He smiled to himself, and kicked off his shoes to walk over to where Changbin was sitting. He got closer when he stopped, and sniffed the air. What is that smell? He thought.

"Did you go outside?"

Changbin flinched, dread washing over him. "Y-yes," he said nervously. Not looking up at the younger.

Seungmin gritted his teeth, at least it was just the smell of another omega, but still he wasn't too happy about it. "Why did you go outside? You know that you aren't stable enough to do that."

Changbin flushed, "I just wanted some fresh air a-and to go the store. I thought I would be okay."

Suengmin sighed, running his hand through his hair. "Did you do okay at least? You didn't call me so I assumed you didn't have any effects?"

Should I lie? He doesn't have to know right? Changbin thought. He was embarrassed that he barely even made it out of the apartment complex when he had to turn around and run back in. "I-I barely even made it out of the complex before I had to turn around," he whispered.

Seungmin didn't hear what he said, and sat down next to the older. He could sense how anxious the older was, and he released some pheromones, wanting to calm the older. Changbin finally looked up at him, and he had tears forming in his eyes. His heart clenched, knowing how badly the older reacted last time, he knew from the reaction it wasn't good.

"I didn't hear you."

"I-I said. I didn't even make it far before I had to turn around." Changbin turned away, his cheeks burning red and the tears threatening to fall.

Seungmin reached over and laid his hands on the older's and squeezed. "Hey, it's okay. I'm sorry I wasn't here to help. You should've called me."

Changbin shook his head. "I didn't want to bother you and I calmed down eventually."

"You wouldn't have bothered me, this is why you moved in, in the first place. So that I can help you." Seungmin said, still squeezing the older's hand. Changbin still didn't look at him, but squeezed back. "What did you need at the store?"

Changbin blushed even redder, he turned to look shyly at Seungmin, "I-I just wanted to cook for you. I even cleaned the house before I left. I thought I should do something since I was staying here."

Seungmin was shocked to hear this. He looked around noticing how clean the apartment did look. "You cleaned?" Changbin nodded his head. "You didn't have to do that."

"I know, but I wanted to."

"Well why don't we cook something together if you are feeling up for it?"

Changbin nodded his head and they both moved to get up. Once they were both standing Seungmin leaned in and kissed him, making him blush again. The younger gave his hand another squeeze and led him to the kitchen.
