15. The One With The Unspoken Truth

"Jungkook?", his mother's voice came throught the speaker.

"sweetie, are you there?"

Jungkook anxiously bit his lip before he answered.

"Yes, mom, I'm here.
Just wanted to check on you and dad."

"I see, well I'm glad you called, I really missed your voice.
We're fine, but what about you? I hope you aren't sick anymore."

"No, I'm fine.... Actually I called because I wanted to talk about something...."

The omega gulped.
He had no clue how to start and now that he thought about it, he'd rather go back to Jimin and Taehyung.
Thinking about his roommate, he was right, his mother was a kind one, who loved him to the moon and back and she wasn't the person to get angry at him, because he lied.
But still, maybe being so close to Taehyung had its toll on him, because deep down he had this mindset as well of omegas being the weak ones, who are less worth than the other ranks.

And to be honest, now that he was one, he surely did feel weak.

"Honey, are you still there?"

"Oh, yeah, sorry.
What I wanted to say..."

He drifted away again.

Not all omegas were weak though. He thought about Jimin, who acted like an alpha all the time and chose to submit in the right moments, when he felt save.
Why wasn't he like that?

"What do you want to say?", he heard his mother ask.

At this point Jungkook was shaking. He couldn't tell her. For Jimin it would have been easy as the brave omega he was, but right now Jungkook was on the verge of having a panic attack.
Even if he had wanted to, his voice didn't allow him.

".... T-they called off the next family day. Someone in the omegas dorm had the flu and it keeps spreading.
I just wanted to inform you, so you and dad don't have to come here."

Jimin would have been so mad right now, but Jungkook couldn't help it.
He would tell them at a point where he was more confident in his new role, when he had sorted out the mess with his mate.
Though, the guilt was almost unbearable.

"Oh... That's sad, we were looking forward to seeing you,but safety has priority.
You're gonna give us a call though, when everything's fine and we can visit you again?", she asked, the obvious worry in her voice made the guilt building up inside of him even worse.

"Of course, love you mom! Say hi to dad from me."

"Sure, love you too!"

Jungkook ended the call and sighed. Jimin didn't have to know, did he?
He would tell his parents when he was truly ready for it and Jimin's pressures wouldn't help.
Therefore it was best to keep this a secret and only focus on Taehyung.

The door opened with a sudden click as an obvious annoyed Jimin entered their apartment.

"Never ever am I going to do this again. Man, what a mean, narcissistic prick. I hope you'll get some sense into him once you two are officially mates.", he ranted, but then paused.

"Did you call your parents? Do they know?"

Jungkook gulped and turned away from him to put his phone on the drawer next to him. He couldn't look in his friends' eyes while lying.

"Yeah, dad was working but I told mom. Everything's fine... I guess...?"

Damn he hated it. Just another reason why he had to solve the Peoblem with Taehyung fast, so he didn't have to lie to his best friend for long.

"Good! See, wasn't that hard. Why does no one listen to my advice."
Jimin patted his own shoulder and headed straight to the couch, where he slumped down.

"Now, let's figure out the next step.
You gotta talk to Taehyung and this time you don't run away like some scared cat."

Jungkook didn't dare to say a word, his throat was still clogged by the disgusting lie he had just said.
Jimin sat up and sighed.

"You know what, fuck it, let's do it the sinple way.
Tomorrow during lunch we'll sit at his table again.
You better use the chance this time.
Although... You two seemed to have a good talk, since you left Yoongi an me alone.", Jimin added and scrunched his nose.

At that Jungkook's throat finally cleared, because the furious thoughts fully took his mind in.

"Sorry, I kind of lost my appetite seeing Yoongi pushing his tongue down your throat."

Jimin snorted.
"Oh come on, secretly you wished Taehyung would do the same to you."

The blonded smirked, stood up and walked to his room, before Jungkook could deny the allegations.
And oh boy, his friend was right.

Stuck in his imagination Jungkook thought about the alphas' lips captivating his own, from time to time biting his lower lip. His perfect veiny hands roaming over his body not leaving out a single inch.
Before his mind could wander deeper into what Taehyung could do to him he violently shook his head.
Those omega hormones were definitely driving him crazy.

Jungkook was glad though, that Jimin already left, so he couldn't smell the slight change in his scent.
Now was not the time to fantasize over someone that didn't belong to him.

Yet.....

Now, it was time to take things seriously without relying on his friend. Jimin clearly meant it as a good act, though sometimes he didn't know where to stop.

With new confidence Jungkook turned around facing the door of his bedroom.
Tomorrow would be a new day and a new chance and this time Jungkook wouldn't submit so easily.
He might be an omega but by any means he wasn't weak.

Nothing could stop him this time....right?
