The trials of mating

Standing his ground

Three weeks passed in a blur,Jimin was getting used to living with someone as was Jungkook.
Of course it wasn't all smooth and easy......
"Jungkook...it's not hard to put things in the laundry basket!"
"I was going to honest then I got distracted by you all wet from the shower and well you know the rest...!"
"That was yesterday? You walked straight past these to get dressed for work!"
"Wow,sounding like my mother here!! Chill..."
"Chill.....ok I will..."
Jimin stormed out and Jungkook huffed undressing and dropping more stuff on the floor before showering.
Coming out and putting comfy clothes on he made his way downstairs.
"Jimin look all going in the laundry!" He yelled sarcastically.
There was no reply so he went to the laundry room about to throw the clothes down when he looked around.the whole area was....clean. Two baskets for dark or whites.Detergent lined up neatly,a pile of mostly his stuff washed and folded ready to put away......Jimin had been busy.
He carefully put clothes in the right baskets and made his way to the kitchen which was empty, usually he would smell something Jimin was cooking.
"Jimin are you sulking.....you want me to order takeout?"he said walking to the sitting room but nobody was there.
Frowning he called out with his mind,
Jimin where are you?
............
Stop playing games answer me
I'm chilling isn't that what you said?
Don't be childish tell me where you are
I'm childish???? Well fuck you mr I can't clean up after myself
I was tired I do work you know
I can't believe you said that.... I work too , in fact I'm so damn busy getting the company up and running I feel drained.
Well you don't have to work I've got enough
Pardon? Since when is your stuff more important than mine?
I'm the alpha I have things to do....
And what am I the omega who does everything you say?
I wish
Pardon?
Well of course your stuff is important but mine is too so I don't want to come home to moaning.......
Well I can rectify that......even though I've been working my ass off I still cleaned your mess and cooked you meals each night.... But I'm the moaner because I ask just for once you to tidy up.
Did I ask you too?
No....but not once did you think to do it,say thanks or even help!
Jesus if I'd wanted a cleaner I'd have got one I was quite happy how I was living my life doing as I please....
Well carry on then jerk.
Just like that the link broke....
"Jimin?" Damn it how had he learned how to control their link.
Picking the phone up he rang him.
"What didn't I give you a big enough hint that I'm not talking to you?"
Jungkook could hear murmured talking and glasses clinking.
"Damn it where are you?"
"Somewhere where I don't have to listen to an overgrown child....another please" Jimin said to someone else.
"Are you drinking?"
"Wow give the man a prize now get lost I'm tired and I don't want to hear you anymore......"
The phone clicked off making Jungkook mad....,brave little omega..... boy was he gonna regret it when he got home he'd have a sore ass for days.
He paced back and forth ringing again and again but his mate didn't pick up.
From annoyance then came worry,what if he got drunk?someone could hurt him,shit why couldn't he have just cleaned up? Of course he had taken for granted all Jimin did in the house he was a rude and ignorant alpha.....come to think of it Jimin had looked a bit tired recently ,falling asleep as they watched tv.
Was he really stressed about his company,wasn't Hobi helping enough?
He rang Hobi.
"Hey Jungkook what's up, did you tell your mate to rest up?"
"Er no why?"
"He's been working like a lunatic, it's hard to promote a company but he insists on doing nearly everything himself and misses lunch,I try to get him to nap when we are driving somewhere but his brain seems to be constantly on the go....i had to insist on taking on some of the work today and sent him home early.he nearly passed out"
"Early? He got in when I did?"
"Damn it.... He must have gone to a customer,there was one he said he needed to meet but I told him I'd drive him tomorrow...talking of which why when you both live in the same place do you both drive here in two different cars?"
"Jimins idea, he said he wanted to be self reliant and not have staff think he's a weak little omega,doesn't want to flaunt our relationship, hence why he doesn't make a big thing of us there,I have to steal the occasional kiss when no one's looking!"
"Hmmm,maybe he feels he has something to prove...he's a little worried that he won't be good enough,"
"What? He hasn't said anything to me!"
"Because it's you he wants to impress idiot! He talks about you a lot, what a good alpha you are how he feels he can't measure up and  that one day you'll just treat him as someone below you not an equal..."
Jungkook gulped...., hadn't he implied that not long ago...
"Oh shit!"
"Huh?"
"I kinda....well he made me mad about some stuff I hadn't cleaned up...hell he even said he was tired.....
I just said there was no need for  him to work he then told me I never noticed what he did around the house....shit what was I thinking !!!"
"Make it up to him ,go cuddle with him say sorry......"
"I would but well, he walked out cos I told him to chill, he's somewhere drinking!I don't know where!"
"Kook really? He's the most hardworking person doesn't play games on his computer or phone like you do,I was hoping it would rub off on you!"
"Whaddaya mean? I'm the alpha I work hard...."
"Kook you used to disappear for hours to have sex.Admittedly not since you met Jimin but the times I covered for you because you'd forget you had a meeting!"
Jungkook now felt really bad, true he had sort of played around a bit, yet had made out he was the busiest person going.
"I'm gonna have to search around for him I don't want anyone hurting him if he gets drunk,damn why didn't I just do the proper thing have a mating party so everyone knows he's mine?"
"He's not a piece of furniture Kook you don't,'own' him"
Jungkook sighed," I'm a shit mate..."
"No you're just used to being on your own so is Jimin, you both need to talk things out..."
"Your right I better go look if I find his car I can search that area..."
"Hang on Kook, I still have the GPS of all your vehicles except the Porsche ,Jimin uses the mini right....ah,I'll send you the location you know it well.."
When Jungkook looked he saw the bar he liked to frequent when he was feeling horny pre Jimin.
"Fuck!Thanks Hobi..."
He drove off in the Porsche  getting there in no time.
Jumping out he walked in. Immediately a group of she wolves surrounded him.
"Baby long time no see...,let's party..."
"No"
"But we are hot for you,"
"I'm here for someone..." he saw Jimin slightly slumped on the bar and walked over. The women followed.
"Jimin come on let's go home..."
A fuzzy eyed male looked back and started giggling.
"I can't get away from you I see you everywhere...."
He gulped down a drink and banged the bar for another.
Jungkook shook his head at the bartender who stepped back.
"Hey you another drink, I need to chill....i got told"
"Sorry sir but the alpha...."
"He's not here...this....(he pointed at Jungkook) is all in my imagination!"
"Alpha come with us this loser omega is crazy...."
"DONT TALK ABOUT HIM LIKE THAT YOU HEAR!!"
The women looked scared,
"But Alpha why are you getting mad at us because of...him?"
"He is my mate worth ten of you now get lost!!"
The women looked shocked but went.
Jimin who thought this was all a mad dream lay his head on the bar.
"So tired...I can't go home...."
"Jimin come with me baby,"
"He calls me baby but he acts like a kid...!"
"I'm sorry baby let's go home ....please"
"Stop it get out of my head....i tried and tried...I told him before no one is gonna make me do stuff again, but he doesn't care I just wanted a little help......now he's just gonna see a pathetic omega......I tried to stand my ground be strong....but I'm not I'm just fake...I'll never be good enough for him....I'm so damn tired of trying,I'm sorry dad I'll never be as capable as you....."
He passed out sliding from the seat straight into Jungkooks arms.
"Oh baby I'm sorry I made you feel like this...,you are strong and capable but even if you weren't I'd still want you.."
He carried Jimin out and to the car strapping him in then driving home.
Jimin didn't move he was still like the dead and Jungkook looked worriedly at him,this seemed more than being drunk was Jimin really that stressed with work....?
Inside the house he undressed the still male wiping him down with a damp cloth then pulling a cover over him.
Frowning he got a jug of water and a glass in case Jimin woke up thirsty in the night.
Getting himself ready for bed he climbed in turning the light of and spooning jimin from behind.
Two hours later he awoke to the sound of wretching in the bathroom.
Hurriedly getting up he found a naked Jimin clinging to the toilet tears running down his face.
"Baby come on what's up?"
"I'm sorry....I'm useless ,I had no right to get mad at you....Im so tired Kookie......"
"Hush baby,you had every right to get mad I was being a pig trying to act big...how long have you been in here your freezing!"
"Half an hour....theres nothing left in me but I still feel sick...."
"Let me help you stand and we can wash your face ..."
He helped Jimin to stand on shaking legs frowning as he saw Jimin's pale face.
"Baby you don't look well at all I'm gonna call the doctor...."
"Kookie is that why I'm tired I'm sick?"
"Let's clean you up...."
Between holding Jimin up at the sink and washing him he got more than worried as he felt Jimin's unease inside and he felt Jimin's dizziness take him over so he picked him up and put him in the bed grabbing his phone to call his personal doctor who arrived twenty minutes later.
Jimin by now had just flaked out as his body lost the fight to stay awake so he was unaware of the doctor  examining him.
"He's been really tired doc  is he sick ?"
"There's nothing to worry about I suspect he's a bit anaemic so he needs to eat more things with iron in and no alcohol and lots of rest...."
"When should he get better?"
"Well this is the first trimester it can make some people very sick and tired another few weeks and it should pass but he needs to eat healthily and less stress, he's got someone else to look after now..."
"Huh?who? Wait trimester....is Jimin....pregnant!!!!"
"Congratulations Alpha you two are going to be parents...I'll get my clinic to be in touch about appointments, goodnight...."
Jungkook was stunned,Jimin was carrying his pup! All the tiredness was mainly due to the pregnancy.....shit how would Jimin feel about it? Everything they had done so far was rushed, they were still learning about each other....
"Jimin don't be mad at me for getting you in this state..." he murmured then he climbed into the bed nuzzling his mates neck and wrapping an arm protectively around the small males stomach.
"Goodnight baby please don't kill me when I tell you the news..."
