The Claimed Omega

The sound of shuffling from the kitchen awakens Minwoo from his deep slumber. Still feeling groggy and a bit reluctant to leave the warm bed to check on the noise, he turns to the side table to search for his phone but there is none. Turning to his side, he feels around on the carpet without succeeding in grabbing anything close to the device. Finally feeling annoyed, he sits up and peeks to his right to the omega.

Wonho is gone but his scent is still lingering. 

Another wave.

'Urghh... Seo Wonho...' He stands up and makes his way towards the sound. As he predicted, the man is in the kitchen, frantically opening the drawers to look for something, with the alpha's phone near his ear. How the hell did he even unlock the thing? 'Wha-?'

Wonho is talking to someone while panicking, but it is too muffled for Minwoo to process. The omega then grabs a beer bottle, wraps his hands around it before putting it back. Minwoo doesn't know what to make of the whole situation, his mind still not fully awake yet and cannot find a word to say. He walks slowly towards the other before Wonho proceeds open his freezer. 'It won't stop!! No! It's not- no! You don't understand!'

'Wonho, what are you doing? Who-'

'NO! I'M NOT LYING! YAH!' The omega doesn't seem to notice his presence and is making a mess, looking for something in the freezer. 'IT WON'T STO-'

Minwoo cannot bear looking at the absurd situation any longer, still annoyed with the way he is woken up, and takes the phone away from the omega. His heart almost stops when Wonho screams in shock before backing away, only stopping when he hits the counter. 'Why are you acting like this?? What's wrong with you?!'

There is no reply but Wonho is not looking at him. His eyes are traveling back and forth from his body to the living room while his left hand grips on a few ice cubes. 'What're you gonna do with that?'

Wonho dashes pass him, to the living room. 'Wonho! What-'

He suddenly maneuvers to the bathroom.

'Fucking hell. WONHO!' Minwoo chases after the male and pushes the door open, right before the other manages to lock it from the inside. Feeling trapped, Wonho backs quickly and sits down on the floor, right at the corner of the shower room. 'What now?? What's with the ice?'

There is no answer; Wonho keeps gazing at his toes, gripping the melting ice in his hand. 'Wonho...' Minwoo growls.

'It won't stop coming out…' He mutters shakily, confusing the alpha. 'I was bleeding but it's not red but it kept coming out I need to stop it I-'

'What are you saying? I don't understa- bleeding? Where?'

'It won't stop coming out!! I need to go to the hospital! '

'Where?!' The man goes silent again, hiding his face between his knees. Minwoo frowns at the action. As far as he can see, there is no blood anywhere. His back maybe? Did he trip and hurt himself? He really needs to make sure so he can take safety measures. Walking slowly towards the vibrating man, he notices the grip on the ice turning red from the cold. His hand? 'Wonho.... let go of the ice first.'

'No... It won't stop flowing...'

'Let me check.' He holds the hand and rubs it gently, taking the cubes away before hugging the sobbing omega.

'Minwoo...' Wonho finally utters, 'What's wrong with me?? I dunno what's happening…I'm scared…'

'Tell me what's wrong… What won't stop?'

'My…' he swallows, 'something keeps coming from my… from my a-but… from down there. It won't stop. I tried to close it, I washed it but it still-!'

Minwoo frowns deeper. Something? Down there? Fluid? 'Can I take a look?'

Wonho pushes him away and moves further into the wall even though it is impossible. 'No! We need to go see a doc-'

'Let me just feel it.'

'No!!'

'Wonho, please! Can't you just listen to me?! I'm a medic student! I might know about these stuffs!' Wonho is not making a sound but he is trying to stop his tears. Holding Minwoo's shoulder to hide his face, he nods and the slightly larger male instantly lets his hand down, into the boxers. As his finger grazes the tight entrance, he feels the hug on his neck tightens from the nervousness. Thick, wet substance is all over the man's opening; it is slippery.

This is definitely natural lube. Wonho has been self-lubricating, something he couldn't do last night. He is in another wave, and he is self-lubricating like any normal omega would. 'Wonho, this…'

'I'm scared… they said it's normal but I… what's wrong with me?'

'You're in heat. It's normal for you to lubricate.'

'What the fuck are you saying??!' Wonho forces the alpha away from him, stands up and grabs the sink to support himself, the other hand grabbing a fist of hair. 'My heat is over!! You took care of it! And I don't lubricate! That's disgusting! DISGUSTING!! STOP SAYING THAT! STOP!'

Minwoo can only stare at the distressed man. He is screaming and cursing at the alpha, as if he had just said something really absurd when the fact is, it is a common knowledge that everybody knows. 'Are you kidding me? Heats last for days. You know that right? They come in waves.'

Wonho glares at him with a look that can kill, provoking Minwoo who is ready to explode. What is there to deny? He is releasing his pheromones, he is lubricating, any omegas would know what to do. 

'Is this funny to you? Do I look like I would sleep with you just because you tell me that? NEVER! YOU'RE SICK! PERVERTED ALPHAS! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME'

Pervert? Him? He is just telling the man the facts. That is just how omegas' body work. Pervert? 'Fine. You wanna go to the doctors? Go! Go get yourself out there in the middle of your heat to the hospital. Even if you manage to go there without getting yourself attacked, they'll probably just laugh at you and send you home right away. Go.'

'Shut up.'

'Feel free to leave whenever you want. Don't expect to return once you walk out.'

'Leave me alone!!' Wonho glares at him angrily but Minwoo only smirk in response. He doesn't plan on staying either. He has more important things to do than arguing with a stupid, egoistic and troublesome omega. Grabbing his toothbrush, he gives the man what he wanted – time alone to be crazy.
