Threaded Bonds - Jikook ABO

Two

Jeongguk's eyes fluttered open when he felt Jimin's hand gently squeeze his knee. Turning his head to the side, he took in the omega's gentle orbs, a reassuring smile already adorning his perfect lips. "Don't stress too much, Gguk. Still worried about Promise?"

The alpha felt a tad silly for letting his scent describe what he was currently feeling. He didn't want to make such a big deal about, but he couldn't quite help it when it came to his cat. His baby. Still, Jeongguk chuckled as he sighed, leaning his head back once more as he attempted to find comfort in his current seat. "Just a little, but I trust Kai; he'll watch over her."

Jimin was already nestled down in his seat, tucking himself in beneath the small blanket that had been provided for them, courtesy of Seokjin's gift of first class. Honestly, despite trying their best to talk the omega down from paying for such a pricey flight, the couple ended up giving in, now finding themselves in their respective seats.

"Cute." Jimin murmured from beneath the blankets, his eyes and black hair the only things visible from where he was resting. Stifling a yawn, the alpha mirrored Jimin's movements and allowed himself a chance to properly get comfortable. It would be hours before they landed in New York, so sleep was going to be a mandatory thing. Still, it wouldn't really matter, his sleep schedule was going to be fucked regardless.

Reaching over, he carded his fingers through Jimin's hair, noticing the way his omega's scent slightly turned sweeter in satisfaction, his boyfriend throwing in a small sigh. Jeongguk wanted nothing more than to pull Jimin against him and give him soft, gentle kisses like he often did when they both sought a lazy evening of sweet nothings.

But, seeing as they were several feet in the air with their friends taking up the surrounding seats, he knew it wasn't going to be possible until they were both in the privacy of their hotel room. Still, Jeongguk put in the effort to properly stretch himself out and hastily press a kiss to the omega's brow.

As tiring as flight was going to be, Jeongguk was at least excited for their small vacation, eager to spend time with his friends and with Jimin as well. A little over a week with no interruptions from work, catching up on some lost time, and letting go of stressful vibes, sounded like absolute heaven, and Jeongguk already wished they were in New York for it.

So Jeongguk slept, delving into the realms of sleep, despite the jitters of excitement. He had never been to New York before, had only seen the city in movies and photographs. Jimin had told him that he only ever traveled once to the city on a job, but he didn't stay long for it as he was only there for work.

He would be able to scratch it off his bucket list.

Still, he stirred himself awake some hours later, wanting to take a leak and regretting all the water he drank shortly before takeoff. Everything around him seemed comfortably quiet, rolling over slightly and noticing the way his boyfriend was in deep sleep, curled in a position that was perfect for spooning.

If only they could.

Jeongguk had come to terms with his unnatural need to touch Jimin always, addicted to the softness and warmth that the omega offered, coupled together with a wonderful scent that always had the alpha feeling fuzzy.

What he would give to bury his face in Jimin's beautiful neck.

"...you feeling okay?"

Jeongguk stilled, hearing a voice drifting from somewhere behind his seat. Ah, that's right, Hoseok and Yoongi took their place there, but he didn't think anyone else would be awake at such an hour.

"Yeah." Yoongi's voice was soft, thick with tiredness, but Jeongguk figured the omega couldn't sleep. "Don't stress over me, Seok-ah, I hardly fly so I struggle to get comfortable."
