In Between || Taejinkook

"Jin, son, are you ready? Taehyung's assistant is waiting for you outside. You know he can't wait that much."

Jin let out a heavy sigh as his mother didn't have the intention of stopping, calling him for god only knew how many times.

Funny enough, he got dressed a long time ago when they announced him Taehyung's assistant was coming over to take him somewhere. However, the moment he was aware that the said man was at their door, he couldn't bring his feet to move. An indescribable fear kept stinging him, starting from his little toe to the top of his head.

Gathering all the power within him, he stood up and went downstairs. Bidding goodbye to his mother, he opened their door to let out an embarrassing, loud gasp.

He couldn't help it when the shorter man's scent reached his nostrils. It wasn't one of an Alpha or even a Beta; it belonged to an Omega for certain. And an Omega in that sort of harsh business was just unexpected for anyone. Male or female, it didn't matter.

"Hello, Mr. Kim. I'm Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung's assistant. It's my duty today, with pleasure though, to take you to Jung Hoseok's agency for your wedding suit." The cheerful yet polite tone of the guy brought some comfort to Jin immediately. The tense feeling in him faded away, finding out the nature of the man.

"Call me Seokjin, please." he uttered calmly with a faint smile, making the other do the exact same.

"Shall we?"

Jimin gestured his hands for him towards a black bentley parked at their front gate. Jin nodded at him and stepped outside, walking towards the car along with the shorter Omega.

He didn't let Jimin open the door of the car for him and at once jumped into the vehicle. Jimin, being overly surprised with the odd action, only had the time to tilt his head in confusion before getting inside the car as well, sitting beside the other Omega.

The older didn't miss to notice the way the first future Kim's son-in-law had an eye on him the moment he opened the door for him till the instant he told the driver to move. It was somehow affective, making him feel self-conscious without any known reason.

When he tried to make eye-contact with Jin, the Omega instantly turned his face towards the other side, pretending he was engrossed in the view outside of the window.

"I'm in no place to ask this from you, Seokjin, but I really am curious to know what do you find in me strange or unpleasant?" Jimin couldn't resist any longer as he was smart enough to realize that he was going to meet the younger in the future, more than once.

"Oh, I'm deeply sorry if I made you feel like that with my rude manners. You are a very resepectful person. It's just... I can't really wrap my finger around the fact that an Omega is Kim Taehyung's assistant." Jin spoke shyly as he eventually gave the other a proper look.

"Don't worry! I'm married, Seokjin." Jimin chuckled a little before clearing things for the younger, or at least this was what he assumed he did.

"I didn't mean it that way, Jimin. It's odd for me because the job doesn't seem like one an Omega accept or even have the ability to handle in the first place." Jin let out the words in a low voice, only enough for the older to hear without identifying any hidden emotion in it.

"It's a demanding job to handle but for Alphas and Betas, as well." Jimin wasn't taken back by the other's statement. In fact, he was used to hearing it all the time.

The Omega was just agitated with the way society and most importantly families made the Omegas feel as if they didn't belong to anywhere; like they were misfit.

"I'm sorry." Jin mumbled under his breath and lowered his head in shame for he felt the resentment in the other's tone clearly.

"It's not you who should apologize. Those who have carved these kinds of thoughts in your mind are at fault." Jimin smiled and put his hand on the Omega's shoulder, rubbing it soothingly.

"I guess I'm saying these stuffs only because I envy you. I envy people like you so much. I don't know if I ever get the chance to do something like what you do for myself." Jin laid his palm over the other's hand on his shoulder, letting out what was loading his chest in total honesty.

"Taehyung isn't a hella flawless person in personality, just like all of us obviously, but I believe you can make that request." Jimin brought his hand back to his lap to play with his fingers as he spoke his words.

"That's merely the only reason for me to not let a word of complaint to my father about this whole arranged marriage thing!"

Jin averted his gaze from the Omega to watch the view outside of the window with nothing but sadness in his features.

"Does it... How do you feel about it, Seokjin?" Jimin was lost for words at first, but then arranging his train of thoughts, he found his only to go question.

"I don't know." Jin whispered in a breathy tone as he closed his eyes.

"Did you marry your husband for love?" He surprised the other Omega with his unexpected inquiry as he was silent for a while.

"Oh, yes. Namjoon, he really makes me feel different. As we discussed before, my job really requires a ton of responsibilities, but he's been supporting me throughout everything. He helps me a lot in it when it's not even his duty.

He always tells me he loves me more when I get all serious in business, ordering lazy Alphas and Betas to move their asses around! I mean being Kim Taehyung's personal assistant for sure has its own advantages. I like to see the ones that come with being his husband! You should tell me about them later."

Jin couldn't bring himself to not giggle at the Omega's little attempts to change the mood for him. It really helped him feel a lot more at ease about the whole situation.

"I'm really glad to meet someone like you, Jimin. It's been a while I had a genuine smile on my lips." Jin murmured, making the other Omega wrap him in his arms quickly.

"I'm glad for our time too, and I'm looking forward for more in the future. Feel free to inform me if you need any help or just want the company of a friend." Jimin whispered the words into the other's ear before breaking their hug.

"I will for sure."
