Love Me, My Omega!

"Is it true that you met Troy yesterday?

My forehead creased as soon as I heard what he said. "Why?" I asked. "Just answer me," he said with a serious expression. I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Yes. Yes, I met him yesterday. What about that?" I said and crossed my arms.

"Listen... A few years back, Troy stopped having his heats and he suddenly stopped emitting his pheromones too. Nobody knows why. Even the doctors do not know why he became like that. That\'s the reason why people assume that he\'s a beta. But..." He swallowed hard and sighed.

"But yesterday, he suddenly got his heat. I\'m assuming that it has something to do with you," he said while looking me in the eye.

"I\'m not sure what you\'re talking about. Before I saw him, he was already starting to have his heat. We just happened to bump into each other before he collapsed," I explained.

He looked at me with doubtful eyes for a few seconds which made me raise my brow. "What? I\'m telling the truth," I said as I frowned at him.

"Well, if that\'s the case then... okay!" He said and smiled. "Is that the only reason why you called me over?" I scoffed.

Really... I wasted a few hours of my Christmas break by going here.

"Yep. That\'s it," he replied briefly. "You could\'ve just told me over the phone, you know? I don\'t see why it\'s necessary for me to actually come in here," I sighed. "Oh, it is necessary. I wanted to see your expression so I could tell whether you\'re lying or not," he shrugged.

"Oh, are you implying that I\'m lying?" I smirked in disbelief. "No, but the chances of lying about certain things is never zero," he said in a matter of fact tone.

Haaa... Well, I can\'t really blame him. It kinda annoyed me that he thought I might lie about it, but he\'s just being like that because he cares about Troy.

Yes, yes... I already know that they\'re cousins. He had this weird expression when I told him about our story and he told me that they\'re cousins.

"Yeah, yeah. Never zero~" I said in a mocking way as I rolled my eyes. I\'d rather die than tell him that I understood him.

"Do people often tell you that they want to punch a hole through your face?" He said as he frowned at me. "No. But I often hear how much they want me to make a mess out of their holes," I said and smirked smugly.

"Ugh, god! You\'re so disgusting," he said as he made a disgusted expression. I just laughed at him.

"Well, then. Since I\'ve already told you about what you wanted to know, I\'m gonna leave now," I said as I stood up from the sofa.

"No, let\'s hang out for a bit! Lucas wants to hang out with you!" He said, stopping me from walking away. "Really?" I said as I raised my brow, now believing him.

"Yes, really!" He said a she smiled.

Why would he even want to hang out with me? Given that I...

"Hey, Lucas! You can come over here already!" Daryl yelled. "Yeah, just a sec!" Lucas yelled back from somewhere.

A few seconds later, he arrived here at the living room.

"Why is he still here?" He said as he pointed at me. "Did you know that pointing is rude?" I said as I raised my brows. "Yeah, I do. That\'s why I\'m doing this," he said and chuckled.

"What about you, Lucas? Why are you still here?" Daryl said and chuckled. "Hey, that\'s not a good thing to say to your bestie, you know?" He pouted. "And since when were we besties? We only met a few days ago, dumbass," Daryl said and chuckled.

"Just now. We became besties just now," Lucas said as he lifted his head proudly while putting both of his hands on his sides.

"Idiot," Daryl mumbled.

"Hey, Lucas! Still sore?" I said as I grinned at him. His face turned red, making my grin even wider.

"Hey, what\'s this? Did you guys have sex? Wow..." Daryl said as he looked at us with a shocked expression.

My brain was still processing what he said. When I realized that he thought that we had sex, the grin on my face suddenly vanished. I immediately yelled, "No!"

"No!" Lucas yelled too.

"Oh, you\'re even in sync, huh?" Daryl said as he grinned teasingly.

"Argh, I said no, okay?!" Lucas frowned. "Then why are you sore, huh?" Daryl said teasingly.

"That\'s because some bastard won against me unfairly. Sore. Sore loser. I\'m a sore loser, alright?!" He said, fuming. Daryl kept laughing at him. "Oooh~ So defensive~" He said as he beamed at him.

Yep. That\'s the reason why he doesn\'t want to see me. He\'s a sore loser. I didn\'t win against him unfairly though.

"You just suck, Lucas," I said with a smug expression. "What\'s this about suck?" Daryl said with a dirty look in his eyes.

"Hey, is sex the only thing on your mind?" Lucas frowned at him. Daryl chuckled and said, "Fine, fine. I\'m gonna stop now."

"I want a rematch," Lucas said with a determined look on his face. "You sure? You\'ll throw a fit again," I said, riling him up.

"I. Want. A. Rematch." He said, still determined. "Fine," I said as I shrugged. I sat back at the sofa and he walked towards us. He then sat on the sofa across mine and took his phone from his pants\' pocket.

"Oh, what\'s this? You\'re gonna play?" Daryl said, amused. I looked at Lucas and grinned when I saw a serious expression on his face.

Oh dear, I shouldn\'t laugh at someone who\'s serious about something.

He invited me into the lobby of the game and started it as soon as I accepted his invite. "Whoever gets to kill the other three times wins. Game?" He said as he stared at his phone, waiting for the game to load. "Sure. Game," I said and  leaned my back on the sofa.

Not even five minutes passed by, the game has already ended, and of course, I won.

"Hey, you have some kind of cheat don\'t you?!" He said as he glared daggers at me. I chuckled and said, "Come on, dude. Just accept your loss."

Daryl laughed at Lucas for losing the game, wheezing so hard that his face turned bright red. "Argh, stop laughing!" Lucas pouted.

This guy\'s making me cringe. Why is he acting cute like that? Ew.

THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW:

The three hang out for a while—playing games, chatting, and laughing. It was almost 12 midnight when Xander decided to finally go home. Lucas asked him to give him a ride to the nearest bus stop. Daryl walked them out to the gate and before the could even go out, a familiar sensation was felt by the three.

The smell of the winter air, the cold breeze of the night, and soft white snow fell on their skin.

\'Oh, it\'s snowing,\' the three thought.

Meanwhile, Troy who was still in heat was on the bed, sleeping and not able to witness the first snow of the year.

On the other hand, at Justin\'s home, the couple were looking outside the window while having hot chocolate before sleeping. It started snowing there, too.

"It\'s snowing..." Justin said as he looked at the snow with smiling eyes. \'Ugh... It\'s snowing,\' Tristan thought as he shivered just from the thought of the coldness that he\'d feel from the snow.

\'I\'m pretty sure I\'d freeze to death if I go out tomorrow in the morning. Why does winter even exist? Haaa...\' Tristan thought.

The hateful thoughts Tristan had for the snow vanished as he looked at Justin and saw how happy he looked as he watched the snow fall to the ground.

\'I might actually start loving winter because of him,\' Tristan thought as he smiled, admiring his boyfriend\'s beautiful smile.

A sound from the clock was heard, signaling them that it was already a new day.

December 25th.

"It\'s a white Christmas," Justin faced Tristan with a bright smile on his face. Tristan\'s smile widened even more as his heart skipped a beat, falling in love with Justin again just from the smile that he showed him.

"Yes, it\'s a white Christmas," he replied, still smiling.

The two of them continued drinking their hot chocolate as they watched the snow fall to the ground, making the asphalt ground from outside damp.

*****

The snow outside has already piled up. It was already evening and they just finished dressing up for the holiday.They spent all day preparing the food, decorating the tables, and fixing the Christmas decorations on the walls, ceiling, outside the house, and more. Their hard work paid off, making them have delicious food and beautiful Christmas.

The couple had already finished greeting their friends through video calling. They all looked at each other and greeted with bright smiles.

"Merry Christmas!"
