Third person point of view
Junkyu woke up and rolled around in bed. The bed was so soft and comfortable that he didn't feel like waking up. But then his hangover crept up. He groaned, feeling his head throb and buzz. He slowly opened his eyes and was met with an unfamiliar ceiling. He looked around the room. His brain stopped functioning for a few seconds.
He quickly sat up and his eyes went wide. He didn't have answers to any questions. It was definitely a house he has never been in. He looked down and saw his clothes. They were some shorts and t-shirt. He smelled them and it was giving off a cool scent besides the detergent. He didn't know anyone with this smell.
He was the only one and there wasn't any other sound. He slowly got out of bed and touched his neck. He didn't feel anything wrong with his body. He was a little relieved at that. He walked out in slow steps. He twisted the knob with as little noise as possible. He didn't find any person in sight. He slowly stepped outside and looked around.
The house had the same smell lingering in the air a little. His eyes went wide. It was highly likely that the scent was of an alpha. He peeked around and the house was relatively neat. He finally saw a figure in the kitchen. He wanted to slip away but the man turned around right at the that time and they made eye contact.
Junkyu became a statue when he saw the face of the other person. Haruto raised an eyebrow. " Morning ". Junkyu just stared blankly. The freeze was not because he got caught sneaking around in this handsome stranger's house he somehow ended up in but because this person was actually someone he knew.
Junkyu really wished it would be a stranger at this point. He stood up properly and blinked. " How is your headache ? " Haruto asked and Junkyu gulped. He is done for. His head was actually ready to explode. Haruto waited for an answer but it never came. Instead all he got was a deadpan expression.
He decided to let him be and recover. He turned around and continued chopping the vegetables. Junkyu was still in the same place. " Do you want to take some medicine ? " Haruto asked and still got no answer. He just continued doing his things, looking like he was speaking to himself. " ... No ... ". Junkyu answered after a few moments.
Haruto sighed and turned around putting the utensil on the table. " Then you can freshen up a little and then we can have it ? It should be done by the time you finish ". Junkyu registered slowly and nodded. Haruto pointed in the direction. " Your clothes should be dry by now. If they are not, let me know ".
Junkyu gave a nod and walked from there like a zombie. He didn't know what to say. He picked up his clothes and went to the room he walked out from. He went to the bathroom and let out a silent scream. He paced side to side in panic. " How did I end up in his house ? " He pulled his hair in frustration.
Haruto was one of the managers of their marketing department. He was only in his late 20's but because of his capability and being an alpha above that, he was able to get there very quickly. Junkyu was just a normal full time employee and an omega. They only crossed paths some times or met during meetings.
That was all there was to it. Junkyu put his head to the cold wall. " I am so dead ". He cried but no tears came out. He looked up and gasped in shock. " Will I get fired ? Did I say something stupid ? What if I spouted nonsense in the drunk state ? Above all these, how did I end up here ?! " He never in his wildest dreams would've thought of this.
He let out a groan and leaned onto the wall lifelessly. But he does not really remember much from the previous night. So he felt like there was no use in dilly dallying in the bathroom. If he needed answers, the person he could ask about it was there outside. He let out a huff and quickly finished everything and dressed up.
Junkyu let out a breath and decided he would face it head on. He walked out to the dining area. Haruto had already set all the things on the table and was waiting for him. He quietly sat on the opposite side. Haruto scooped out the hangover soup and gave it to him. Junkyu thanked him in a small voice with a bow and took it. They started eating in silence.
Junkyu did feel better with the soup going down to his stomach. He didn't know what to say though. He looked up at Haruto who still hasn't said anything. " I am sorry for the inconvenience ". Junkyu said with a bow. Haruto nodded. " It is fine ". Junkyu gulped seeing Haruto wasn't mad. His heart relaxed a little. " How... me.... here ? "
Junkyu didn't know how or what to ask. Haruto understood what he wanted to know. " Your friend Jihoon is an acquaintance of mine. He couldn't take you home yesterday so I helped him. But my phone was dead so I couldn't get your address. I wanted to ask you but you didn't look like you were in a state to answer. So I brought you here. Sorry about that but I had no choice ".
Junkyu was nodding, processing the situation and understood how he ended up here. But the apology caught him off guard. He shook his head vigorously and waved his hands. " No, no. Nothing like that. I am the one who is sorry. I caused you trouble ". Haruto smiled. " It was nothing ".
Junkyu still felt guilty. He knew Jihoon wouldn't trust him with anyone and he would've really been in a difficult situation if he sent him like that with someone else. Junkyu finally relaxed completely. His shoulders slumped and they finished eating. He then helped clean up. Haruto washed his hands and turned to Junkyu.
" Don't do the dishes. I will take care of it later ". Junkyu nodded. Haruto walked into his room. Junkyu went to the living room and picked up his bag. He saw all his things were in there. He wondered if Haruto knew his identity as he hadn't mentioned anything that would suggest it. Haruto walked out all dressed up and picked up his things too.
" Shall we go ? " " Eh ? " " To office ". Haruto replied and Junkyu blinked in confusion. " Do you know me ? " Junkyu asked, perplexed. Haruto nodded with a calm face. " I thought I found your face familiar but then I saw the ID card in your pocket. So I knew where I saw you ". Junkyu understood. " Let's go ? " Haruto asked, walking towards the door.
Junkyu also picked up his bag and followed him. They both put on their shoes and Junkyu turned to Haruto. " But I can go by myself though. I will take the bus or taxi ". " Why ? " Junkyu didn't know how to say it out loud. Haruto raised an eyebrow. " You have a problem being seen with me ? " Junkyu quickly shook his head.
" It is not particularly a problem, but it wouldn't be that nice if someone does see us together. So I am a little worried about it ". Haruto nodded. " Fine. Then I can drop you at the end of the street. Will that do ? " Junkyu gave a bow thanking him. The both of them walked out and went to the parking lot. They got in the car and Haruto drove out of there.
