Love Me, My Omega!

My heat lasted for only two days. Maybe because I had sex with an alpha that my heat did not last very long compared to the last one. But thanks to that, I'm back at the university since I already feel better. "Hey, where's your alpha?" Xander has been pestering me for the past few days since I came back, and I kept making up lame excuses just so I wouldn't look pathetic. "I told you, he's a very busy man," I said, showing the annoyance in my tone. Why can't he just leave me alone?

He chuckled and said, "Why don't you just tell me the truth." I stopped walking and faced him. "Listen, I'm telling the truth. It's up to you if you'll believe it or not," I said as I looked him in the eye to make it seem like I wasn't lying. "You kept bragging about him the other day. How am I supposed to believe you if you wouldn't even let me meet him?" He said as he raised his brow and crossed his arms.

"Ugh, whatever! I told you he's a..." He cut me off and said, "Yeah, yeah. He's a busy man. You already said that earlier. What makes him so busy, huh? What does he do? Is he still a student or does he already have a job? If he has a job, then what is it? If you tell me, I won't pester you about this anymore."

I bit my lower lip, thinking whether I should tell another lie.

Haa... I've made up my mind.

"It's none of your business, Xander. Why are you sticking your nose into someone else's business?" I said as my eyebrows furrowed. "I'm just curious. I want to know who the new guy is," he said with a serious face. "What's wrong with you? Why do you want to know so badly?" He clicked his tongue and avoided my gaze. After a few seconds, he finally answered. "We're friends. That's why." I smiled in disbelief and said, "Correction. We 'were' friends," emphasizing 'were'.

He looked pained because of what I said, but I did not let that bother me. He said far worse things than that.

He kept quiet and since I had nothing to say anymore, I continued walking, leaving him standing there.

Xander and I were friends when we were still in primary school. We were actually really close until high school. But then one day, his attitude towards me suddenly changed and he started ignoring me as if I was never a part of his life. Of course, I felt hurt. He even said harsh words to me before finally cutting ties with me. Eventually, our friendship faded as time went by. We acted like we were strangers to each other until we were in college. Coincidentally, we went to the same university and that's when he suddenly told me that he likes me. Knowing how he acted towards me back then, I did not even give him a chance to date me since it was pretty clear how things are going to end up between us if I actually dated him.

Well now, seeing how he acted when he smelled an alpha's pheromones on me the other day, I guess I was right. I mean, if he actually liked me, would he tell me that I'm 'sleeping around' with alphas? The answer is no, right?

Anyway, because of the incident when we were in high school, we were in bad terms—we are in bad terms. It seems like he's the only one who thinks that our friendship has been restored just because he talked to me again when we entered college. It was infuriating. It's like I was his toy that whenever he gets tired of me, he can just dispose of me anytime and whenever he's bored, he'll come back to play with me again. I hated that. That probably explains my attitude towards him now.

I clicked my tongue and frowned. What if he spreads rumors about me? What will happen to me then? It's not like I know an alpha who can pretend to be my lover. Haaa...

I went out of the building since I'm going home right away. Daryl is busy and it's not like we always go to school and go home together so this is nothing unusual.

When I got home, I proceeded to do the assignments given to us by our terror professor. I spent a lot of hours doing them without taking breaks, so I immediately fell asleep as soon as I finished.

*****

A week has already passed since that day. I looked at my tummy and rubbed it with my hand. What if I'm pregnant? Should I go for a checkup? But... I don't have money. Haa...

"I finally found you." The heavenly scent of his pheromones that he casually wore like a perfume was tickling my nose. These pheromones are...

I looked up and saw Tristan. My eyes widened when our eyes met. Unlike the Tristan that I saw several days ago, this Tristan looked so different in a bad way. His eyes looked very tired and the tiredness from his eyes doubled because of the dark circles under them. His face also looked pale and it looks like... he got thinner.

"Tristan?" I said as I could not believe that he was actually standing here before me. "Tristan Lee?" I repeated as my eyes widened more. "Yeah," he said as he smiled at me. "What are you doing here?" I asked as he sat next to me. "I've been going here in the plaza for the past few days but I couldn't see you. Maybe I always come late?" He said and chuckled.

Ah! I've been going home early lately. Maybe that's why our paths don't cross at all. "Why did you want to see me?" I asked. He looked at me and his eyes suddenly drifted to my tummy. "Please get checked. You might be pregnant because of me," he said with an anxious look in his eyes.

So I wasn't the only one who thought of that...

I was quiet for a few seconds maybe because I was afraid or maybe because I was embarrassed.

"Okay."
