Come Here And Love Me (ven aquí y ámame)

Chapter VIII

Beomgyu's house is homely. Inside it is decorated with wooden decorations and there are family photos hanging on the wall. When the alpha enters the door, the first thing he sees are the stairs that lead up to the rooms. Taehyun sniffs to smell some strange smell - his alpha orders him to do so, in protective mode - but he only smells Beomgyu's.

"Mom, I'm here!" Beomgyu shouts over the music that is playing.

The omega tells the black-haired man to leave the things on the couch. A lady with long, dark brown hair comes out of the kitchen, she is not very thin but she looks good. Her face is pretty and she has the same eyebrows as Beomgyu. Taehyun has seen the omega's mother before, he just never noticed exactly what she looked like.

"Oh, Gyu, you're a little late, don't you think?" The beta has a spatula in her hand.

"Yes, I went with Taehyun to do some things" the omega approaches his mother to give her a hug. Taehyun stays in his place.

"Hello, Taehyun. Are you staying for lunch? If so, it's a pleasure for us to have you here."

"Good afternoon, Mrs. Choi" he nods.

"Okay, if you want to eat you'll have to wait a little, because I'm still breading the meat."

"We wait then" Beomgyu says, shrugging his shoulders.

"Why don't you go upstairs and wait?" Without her hands, Taeyeon pushes her son towards the stairs. "Anyway, you're already pregnant."

"Mom!" He reproaches her but his mother just laughs, walking to the kitchen. "Come Taehyun, I'll take you to my room"

With red cheeks, they both calmly climb each step. Beomgyu opens a blue painted door. On the walls there are posters of superheroes or some animated cartoon.

"Your room is..." Taehyun frowns, searching for some -kind- word to say.

"Childish? I know" he nods, running a hand over the figure of Batman. "The only 'remodel' I did was when I was 12"

"That explains... everything, practically."

"But you don't like it?"

"Yeah, I mean, it's cute, I think."

"I stuck each poster on the wall myself" he looks around, smiling, "Mom thought I was obsessive and that one day-"

Suddenly, he stops talking and his eyes cloud over, his small mouth opens but nothing comes out of it.

"Beomgyu, are you okay?" With eyes wide open, he smiles. He tries to speak but is not silent this time.

"It-it's m-moving"

"Who?"

"The baby" points to his stomach and puts his hands on it.

The omega walks up to him and without asking, takes his hand and puts it on him.

"There it is! Did you feel it?"

He wish he could felt it, but no.

"I don't feel it"

"Again!" Beomgyu lifts his shirt and starts talking to his belly. "Hey, baby. I'm glad you're moving, but I hope you don't do it at night or it'll be really annoying."

Taehyun moves closer, placing both hands on the omega's skin, trying to feel something. Actually, he just wanted to touch it. Without avoiding it, he buries his nose in Beomgyu's brown hair.

"Why do you smell like coconut and vanilla? You're just coconut."

"When mom was pregnant with me, she smelled like coconut and she's a beta. So... I guess the vanilla is for the baby."
