"You should do better than me since you're so excited to get the job," Donghyuck said teasingly while him and Jaemin are walking towards the grooming shop since he just agreed to Jaemin working although he doesn't need to. But then, Jaemin started to tell things that made him guilty so he didn't have any choice.

Jaemin should do fine even if he doesn't know much. Donghyuck said the guy who's good at the job will teach him. He's excited about it. This is going to be his first job if he's ever going to be accepted. This is going to a nice starting point for experience before he really gets a job under his major.

He should put a good impression. His clothing looks fine but he doesn't know if he does in other's eyes.

"Hey, Hyuck, do I look fine?" Jaemin asked.

The beta furrowed his eyebrows at him, "We're getting you a job, not a date, Jaem."

"No! I meant to give a good impression."

"Yeah, so don't be worried."

"Is my scent too offensive? I should've worn a perfume," the beta uttered, worryingly. Sometimes, people just doesn't like strong scents, like an alpha's, so Jaemin just got nervous about it.

Donghyuck chuckled, "You smell just fine."

Jaemin trusted his friend's words and didn't mind his thoughts. He doesn't have any knowledge in jobs, what do others expect? He'll overthink about it, but too late, they arrived at the shop in just a few steps. It just opened, since it's very early in the morning. Opening the door, Donghyuck pulled Jaemin in.

"Renjunnie, I'm here!" the beta uttered loudly to catch his friend's attention who was currently nowhere to be found.

They stayed by the door and Jaemin was waiting for a response. Then he heard hurried footsteps coming from the direction of the counter. The beta saw the staff's door opened and there appeared a pretty hybrid coming out of it. Jaemin didn't mean to stare but he did, feeling his heart fluttering. A nice scent of vanilla filling the small area he is in, Jaemin thought the hybrid's an omega.

The beta even thought he's cute. The ears and tail made him imagine things, which made him blush. Jaemin covered half of his face and looked away from the hybrid.

This isn't good.

"Na Jaemin! What the hell are you doing?"

Jaemin snapped out of it and looked over at the two people looking at him, including the pretty hybrid.

"I...I just remembered something. What is it?" Jaemin asked.

Donghyuck signaled him to come over which the beta did but ever so slowly. He got curious why Jaemin suddenly became, somewhat, shy around.

"This is Renjun, he's been around here way before me so he knows the things better and he'll be teaching you how to work," the beta introduced.

The hybrid named Renjun smiled at Jaemin and gave him a hand, which flustered the beta a bit. Jaemin slowly took the small, soft hand and got surprised when Renjun excitingly shook their hands together. The omega was just happy that Donghyuck brought someone to somehow fill up the lack of employees right now.

"Hi, nice to meet you..." Renjun trailed off, waiting for the beta to tell his name, although he heard Donghyuck said it a while ago. He has a short-term memory loss at times.

Jaemin didn't want to stay there, standing, and stare at how cute Renjun is with his tail swaying and his ears down. Instead, he just snapped out and pulled his hand away to bow infront of the omega, "I-I'm Jaemin...Nice to meet you, sunbae--"

"Please, just call me Renjun. You don't have to put honorifics," the hybrid chuckled and softly pushed the beta up, "Hyuckie told me you have classes in the morning?"

Donghyuck already has a nickname? Will I also get one from him too?

"Yes...Is that a bad thing?"

Renjun shook his head, "No. You can come and work in the afternoon, after Hyuck's shift. Is that fine?"

The beta immediately nodded, "Of course! I-I mean...Yeah, sure. I'll be here after class."

The omega clapped cutely, his ears perking up and his tail wagging, "That's great! I'll look forward in working with you, Jaemin-ah."

Jaemin never felt his heart go crazy for someone before. Not to mention, a boy.

"I know what you're thinking," Donghyuck uttered and pointing at the beta, squinting his eyes at his friend. They just got out of classes and has a bit of break before Jaemin attends his first day at work.

Jaemin furrowed his eyebrows at the sudden accusation, "What are you blaming me for again, Hyuck?"

"Dude, you have a crush."

The beta was taken aback, feeling a bit nervous but he didn't make it too noticeable, "What are you talking about?"

"Na Jaemin, you have a crush on Renjunnie!"

"Y-You're seeing things and very delusional! I...just met him!"

Donghyuck laughed, "Dude, my man, my dear Jaeminnie, it's fine to have a crush on him. He's very cute, I can't blame you."

Jaemin blushed hard which immediately made him to cover up his face with his palms. He groaned and shook his head.

"I swear, Donghyuck, if this gets out..."

The beta gasped, "You think I spill secrets? I maybe really annoying and stubborn, your secret's fine with me, don't worry."

"I feel very worried because you're very talkative."

"Hey," Donghyuck caught Jaemin's attention, "Believe in me. I won't say anything."

Jaemin sighed, "I'll trust you to it..."

"I'm not saying this to scary you but Junnie had some alphas trying to hit on him. I caught them trying to get his number or ask him to go on a small date with them but he rejected and firmly said no even if he's smiling. I find him really intimidating although his smile doesn't mean anything."

The beta listened to his friend's story and felt his stomach dropped at thought of being rejected. Jaemin ended up looking nervous and , he didn't even get to say something which made Donghyuck to laugh at him. He wasn't exaggerating.

"You didn't help him?"

Somehow, Jaemin still got the energy to care.

"I was ready to fight but Channie did the job. Don't worry, I'll reserve Junnie for you if you're worried about that," Donghyuck joked which made Jaemin to sigh, "Anyway, do you have any questions about him?"

"What?! Why would I?"

"I know you're curious about him. Generally, hybrids are really interesting," the beta said from experience. They have some hybrid friends and Donghyuck just really like the idea of their existence, for some reason. Well, his boyfriend is a hybrid.

Jaemin shook his head, "I don't really have any questions about him..."

"Just say you want to know him by yourself and go!"

"Hey, you're being too loud."

Both betas looked behind and saw Mark, an alpha hybrid, specifically a lion, coming over to their table. Same with Renjun, his ears and tail are the only physical parts sticking out, with a bit of pointy teeth.

"What are you guys talking about?" Mark asked.

Rather than Donghyuck taming Mark, it's the other way around. The alpha hybrid was more composed but can be sometimes gullible.

"Oh, noth--"

"He likes the hybrid I'm work with. Remember Renjun?" Donghyuck answered and smiled at his boyfriend.

Mark frowned, "Let the guy live. Let's go, you have classes, don't you?"

"But I'll walk Jaemin to the shop," the beta said.

"No, it's fine! I can go by myself," Jaemin uttered who already stood and has his bag with him.

"Really?"

"Yeah, of course. I'll see you later then. See you tomorrow, Mark hyung."

The beta jogged away and out of the university. Donghyuck's too noisy. Jaemin's nervous that he might tell Renjun about it.

Wait, he doesn't like him. He doesn't like Renjun. The omega's just pretty, that's all.

A/N: please do tell me if some things in the plot disturbs/ bothers you :D
