Jongho couldn't take it anymore.

After saving San, and being reunited, the beta has the balls to once more ignore and avoid Jongho. The alpha is furious and wants an explanation, but San knows just where to go to avoid the other. Jongho has had enough.

He managed to track down San in the kitchen with Yeosang, the omega was making something with the servants of the house for dinner. San was staying close by him, watching Yeosang's every move as he moved easily in the kitchen.

"San," Jongho spoke sternly, his voice strong and to the betas and omegas in the kitchen, it caused them to pause and shiver slightly.

"I'm busy," San mumbles, not looking up at Jongho.

"It's okay Sannie," Yeosang smiles, "You can go help him."

San hesitated before slowly walking towards Jongho, keeping his head down he moves past the alpha and exits the room. Jongho growls as he follows the beta, walking quicker to grab his wrist and stop him. San jerks away and Jongho growls, "Stop."

San whimpers, stopping instantly and tilting his head to the side in submission. Jongho hates doing this, but the beta wouldn't listen and he's had enough of San running away. He stands in front of San, using his index finger and thumb to tilt the beta's chin up. San's bright green eyes lock with Jongho's dark brown, and the alpha frowns, "Why are you running?"

San looks everywhere but Jongho until the alpha whispers, "Look at me."

The beta looks up, Jongho can see his green eyes turning grey as his eyes fill with tears. Jongho's thumb brushes his cheekbones softly as they stare into one another's eyes, San whispers, "I'm scared."

"Of what baby?"

"Of you hurting me."

"Sannie," Jongho whispers, shaking his head, "I would never, never hurt you."

"That's what he always said," San whimpers, tears pour down his cheeks and cover Jongho's hands.

Jongho pulls San in a hug and holds him close, the beta instantly broke down into tears and began sobbing. Jongho shushes him, catching eyes of wanderers in the hall and pulls San to his room down the hall. As soon as he shut the door, San pulls away, wiping his eyes, "I'm sorry, I try not to break down around you guys."

"Don't apologize," Jongho whispers softly, keeping his hands cupped around San's face as he stares at the beta, "San..."

San looks up at him, the whites of his eyes were a little pink from crying and he was slightly sniffly as Jongho takes in a deep breath to start his confession, "I love you. I have known for a while now and I've tried to be patient and to wait until you showed signs of doing the same. But right when you do you start to shut me out."

San's eyes fall downcast, widening after a second when the information processed, "Y-You love me?"

Jongho scoffs, "Me trying to talk to you and be with you and doing things for you didn't prove that?"

San's bottom lip and chin wobbles as more tears fill up his eyes, he cups Jongho's face in his hands and brings him closer. Their lips are suddenly together and San sobs quietly as he kisses Jongho. The alpha groans, tilting his head to deepen the kiss all while San tangles his fingers in his brown hair.

Jongho cups the back of San's thighs and San didn't need to be told to jump, his legs wrap around Jongho's waist. Jongho carries him over to the bed, laying him down in the center and never once pulling away. San moans softly, gasping when Jongho's hips grind against his jeans.

"I want to hear from you if you want it," Jongho whispers, cupping San's face with one hand.

San was quiet as he stares up at Jongho, the alpha can see the wheels turning in his mind. San's lip slowly curls into a smile and those dimples in his cheeks pop out, "I trust you."
