"'maybe being an omega isn't that bad.'"

chapter fifteen - life ;

life went on. and fast. before anyone knew it, stray kids were becoming more and more respected, and were slowly growing older. they were no longer the rookies they were before, but a well-rounded and respected group. the now-rookie groups looked up to them, praising them for their hard work and training. not to mention that rookie omega idols looked up to jisung specifically, saying that he encouraged them.

of course, jisung being an omega did intertwine with their work. they had to be careful about other alphas, especially unfamiliar ones, and how they would react to the fresh omega. while jisung had been an omega for a bit, he was growing familiar with being an omega in the music industry. as if being an idol couldn't get any harder, being an omega was hard stuff. you had to be careful about who you were around and had to be super aware of the date. otherwise, you could possibly perform in the middle of your heat.

though, despite it being hard to work with, jisung did it. he managed to be a professional idol, and a good one, too. he did it with the help of his pack, of course, as well as the other idols in the industry. he found himself with other omegas, asking for advice on certain topics, and even giving out advice. sometimes, he'd even ask his fellow packmates for advice. while no, they weren't omegas, they could give out some pretty good advice every once in a while. they let him nest after long and hard days, letting him find comfort in their scents.

of course, things weren't always this smooth. he's dealt with some nasty alphas and betas before, and even some omegas, too. they said rude and disgusting comments about him, and while he tried to ignore their harsh words, it was hard to. having the same negativity repeated to you day after day puts on a toll on you. especially with stray kids' rising popularity.

however, as they were an extremely close pack, they were able to make it through those tough times. with lots of cuddling, movie nights, writing songs with changbin and chan, and other things that help each of them out. sure, it sucks that they even had to go through those things in the first place, but they got through it.

and to them, that's all that matters.

"hyung, it's movie night tonight!" jisung clung onto changbin, who was sitting in the living room. tonight was their weekly movie night, which was always on saturdays, and this time, it was felix's turn to pick it. the boy always seemed to pick a really sccart horror movie, or an incredibly cute cartoon of some kind. how he was so diverse was beyond the pack.

changbin hummed in response. carefully, he wrapped an arm around jisung's waist. "what do you think it'll be this time? some kind of gore or sunshine and rainbows?" jisung asked, and changbin laughed at the comparison. "what'd he pick last time?" "i think we watched moana." "then it'll probably be some horror movie. you know he likes to alternate it." jisung nods, his hair bouncing as he did so. "yea, you're right." changbin laughs. "when am i ever wrong?" jisung pouts and changbin smiles, pinching the omega's cheeks. "don't pout, sung. come on, let's go see what mess the others have gotten themselves into."

jisung removed himself from changbin and let the older get off the bed, the two walking side-by-side into the living room. in there, felix was sitting besides chan and seungmin, going through a box of movies that felix would pick from. minho, hyunjin and jeongin were in the kitchen, making what seemed to be large bags of popcorn. it looked so natural, so normal. it made jisung smile.

"oh, hi hyung, hi jisung!" said felix, his voice echoing throughout the living room. he seemed to be talking to chan and seungmin, probably about the movie that he'll decide to pick. jisung sat on the remaining spot on the couch, and changbin sat on the floor between jisung's legs. "hey lix! what movie were you gonna pick up?" jisung peered over to look at the two movies in his hands. 'texas chainsaw massacre' and 'saw.' great.

felix, noticing the way jisung went pale, laughed. "it's ok, sung, you can hold onto me if it's too scary!" jisung blinked and nodded, and felix hummed as he thought about which movie to pick. he smiled and held up 'saw,' smiling. "let's watch 'saw'! it's a super good movie, i promise!" the others seemed to agree and chan grabbed the movie and carefully took out the cd, placing it in the cd player and letting the movie begin.

hyunjin and jeongin came back and placed the food on the table, taking their spots on the ground beside changbin. minho came with drinks, handing everyone what they had asked for, and turned off the lights before taking his seat. the movie began to play, causing them to sit in silence and carefully watch the movie, felix being the most attentive.

jisung thought about the past year or so. how he had presented, kept it a secret, and when his secret got out, his pack accepted him gracefully. he couldn't have asked for a better pack to call his own, he couldn't have asked for better alphas or betas that were nice to him and respected him so much. he smiled softly, cuddling further into the person beside him, which was chan. though jisung never thought he would think this, but he was finally happy with his secondary gender. he was finally happy with being an omega.

'maybe,' jisung thought to himself, 'being an omega isn't tbat bad.'
