Chapter 5

●●●

Surprisingly it wasn't Jungkook who presented first. Instead, a couple of weeks later, Taehyung received a phone call from an out of breath Jimin.

"Jimin? Everything alright?"

"No, nothing's alright. I think I'm presenting." Jimin panted into the phone and Taehyung could hear cushions move in the back.

"Are you nesting? Is it your heat?"

He could hear Jimin come to a halt, a long silence filling the line. Just when he thought that maybe the connection had been lost Jimin finally spoke again. "Promise me not to freak out."

"Promise you not to freak out? Why would I freak out?" Taehyung asked, a worried feeling settling in his stomach. Was something bad happening? Maybe Jimin was in danger. What if his heat had hit while he had been outside and he wasn't at home right now? "Are you home? I could pick you up if you're somewhere dangerous." He quickly offered, but Jimin cut him off.

"I'm home. There's nothing to worry about... it's just..." he could hear Jimin let out a sigh. "Damn it, I should have talked to you before but I was kinda scared and now I have a headache and I need someone to cuddle with, but I really need to tell you before I..."

"Just spit it out... it can't be that bad."

"I'm presenting, but not as an omega... and not a beta either."

Taehyung could hear his own heartbeat in his ears. He had no idea what to say to that... Jimin, an alpha? It made more sense than Jungkook. His character fit better with the typical alpha. Maybe not exactly, but Jimin was quite feisty when he wanted to be. Still, there was such a wrong ring to it.

He could hear Jimin shakingly take in a breath. "I knew it... even before the Jungkook thing. My body has just been going through some changes, but I was scared to tell you because I was worried how you'd react. I mean Jungkook as an alpha that's one thing... he's the sweetest thing, but I had no idea how you would react and kind of missed my chance to tell you." Jimin word vomited before taking in another shaky breath.

Taehyung realized that he had to be crying. His heart hurt at the thought. "No, don't cry. Please, Jimin, don't do that to me. It's okay... it's just really surprising, but it doesn't change anything, so please stop crying. You're home, right? I'll go get some groceries for you and then I'll come and take care of you. We'll try to make your h... rut as comfortable as we can, okay? Should I tell Jungkook? Wait, alphas get territorial if there's another alpha nearby during their rut..."

Jimin chuckled tiredly on the other side of the phone. "I really doubt I'd get territorial with Jungkook. I have the strongest urges to cuddle with both of you right now, so I don't think it would be a problem..."



When Taehyung made it to Jimin's place, Jimin's scent was ten times more prominent than it usually was. Not that he minded, after all Jimin's scent had the instant effect of calming him down. Carefully placing his bag with the water and the groceries down he slipped out of his shoes and then his jacket.

With the pack of water bottles he made his way down the hallway towards Jimin's room, where he knocked on the door just to make sure he wouldn't interrupt anything. The wooden floor on the other side creaked softly and then the door swung open.

Jimin didn't look good. His face was flushed, a layer of sweat covering most of his almost naked body. He was only wearing his underwear, but Taehyung was used to seeing him in little clothing. Even with how done he looked Jimin sent him a tired smile when he leaned onto the door frame.

"You never told me how exhausting presenting is." He complained jokingly.

"Didn't want to scare you." Taehyung muttered, opening his arms to invite Jimin for a hug. He could see relief in Jimin's eyes at the gesture before he moved forward and gratefully took the hug. Jimin's body against Taehyung's felt hot, which it most likely was. Jimin probably had fever, or at least heightened temperature.

Soothingly rubbing his back while Jimin nosed at his scent gland Taehyung asked. "How bad is it? How are you feeling?"

"Really lonely." Jimin admitted, rubbing his cheek against Taehyung's neck, casually scenting him. Taehyung let him, moving his hands up from his back to his hair and combing his fingers through it. They had done this so many times before, so why would this be any different?

"You aren't, okay? I'm here now with something to drink, food and myself and, well, Jungkook will be coming a bit later because he still has a class but he'll be here as soon as he can."

Jimin nodded. "I don't feel lonely like this. It's just... The bed only smells like me right now..."

"It's not much but I got you this for while I get dinner ready." Taehyung took his backpack off, grabbing two hoodies from it. "One is mine. The other one is Jungkook's. He left it at my place last time. They should have some scent."

A warm smile spread over Jimin's face as he took both of them, burying his face in the fabric and taking a deep breath. "Thanks. It really smells like you two." He leaned forward, hugging Taehyung again.

"No problem." Taehyung hugged Jimin tightly, pressing a soft kiss to his temple. "As long as you're feeling good."

"I am." Jimin smiled, letting go. When Taehyung turned around to go and cook, he quickly grabbed his arm again. "Taehyung?"

"Yeah?"

"Thank you for not acting weird because of this... I know it is... just..."

"Stop. It's not weird. I'm sorry about making you feel like it is, but it really isn't. You... both of you are my everything and even if you both turn out to be alphas, there's nothing weird about it. You're still going to be my babies that I have to protect with all I have." He turned around, hesitantly pressing a kiss to Jimin's cheek, maybe a bit too close to Jimin's lips. "So go in there, drink a lot, get... some of the horniness out of your system and then we'll eat and cuddle okay?"

Jimin nodded, a blush spreading over his cheeks. "Yeah... I will."
