During dinner, Jimin didn't bother trying to keep a conversation.

Hoseok had been more than helpful towards him, supplying him with more scent blocker and a change of more comfortable clothes. He helped him fix his hair and look presentable for dinner with the sponsors and pack. But even then, Jimin barely spoke a word.

The pack house dining hall was bustling. Alphas, Omegas, and Betas alike roamed around, greeting their fellow pack mates, laughing and smiling, and grabbing a plate from the buffet styled cafe. The pack chefs watched with satisfaction as the guests enjoyed their food.

The sponsors sat at a table in the middle of the hall, ties loosened and professional aura dropped as they ate and chat about miscellaneous things. Namjoon and Seokjin, as well as another representative of the pack, sat alongside them. Jimin was lucky enough to be placed at a nearby table with Hoseok, Taehyung, and Jeongguk. He definitely wasn't in the mood to talk to his dad, let alone anyone else.

Being without his alpha is making him depressed. He would've never thought that going an hour without seeing his boyfriend would be so dreadful.

Despite the air conditioning being up high today, Jimin was still sweating. His scent wasn't detectable nor was any body odor, but the lasting symptoms of his heat was very much still present. Hoseok, in contrast, was rubbing his arms and drinking tea, assumably cold.

"So...are we just gonna sit in silence?" Hoseok asks, feeling awkward with the quietness of the table. As much as he tried to enjoy his barbecued meat, the stiffness at their table was deafening.

Taehyung shrugs his shoulders, "there's not much to talk about." He says, stabbing his asparagus and eating it.

Jeongguk glances at him, his stare lingering for a just a moment before going back towards Jimin.

"Hyung, drink more water." He says to him though the sentence alerted his other hyungs at the table.

Jimin quietly picks up his glass of water, drinking from it but seemingly still lost in silent thought.

"Okay, how are you two doing? You're awfully quiet on this nice day." Hoseok suddenly says to the alpha couple, desperate for an actual conversation to cure his boredom. If it weren't for Jimin needing his help, he wouldn't voluntarily be here.

"We're fine," Taehyung says cooly.

"Yeah..." Meekly, Jeongguk agrees.

Hoseok rolls his eyes. "Are you two seriously acting like I can't tell something's off? What happened to us coming together and talking about our problems?"

At the question, Taehyung rolls his own eyes. "We're here because of Jimin, not to talk about our problems." He then stands from the table, grabbing his plate to get more food.

Jeongguk inhales slowly, clenching his jaw as he watches his boyfriend leave the table. It doesn't go unnoticed by Hoseok.

"Kookie?"

The young alpha glares down at his plate. "His rut is coming up and he's been irritable lately. It's been...a lot for us."

Hoseok frowns at that. Since knowing Taehyung, the alpha never really participated in the mating season or even had a close partner. Taehyung preferred to spend his ruts alone, unlike most unmated alphas. But he has a partner now.

"Have you..." he treads lightly, not really knowing how to present his question. "Have you...um, had your first rut yet?"

Jeongguk finally looks back up at his hyung. Though despite his earlier annoyance, he now looks hesitant. "Not since I presented," he says.
