@[SH]β❅kim♡minseok Kento gave a small smile at Minseok and hummed softly. "Even the strong have their weak moments." Kento murmured softly, quoting something that came to mind, where he heard it he failed to remember. Grabbing the rice pan, Kento started to pour some rice into it, making sure to measure it exactly. "I'm also supposed to be strong, The younger brother has his elder brother to support him, but what if the elder brother falls? Do you honestly think I would just stand by when you need the support?" Kento continued, his movements paused and his eyes staring at Minseok's, daring the elder to even retort back at him. "You, Mum, and Dad were all there, so patient with me when I was still a mess. You guys mean the world to me, What kind of brother would I be if I just ignored you when you need support." Kento's lips turned into soft, sad smile. Turning his body so it was facing the sink, Kento rolled up his sleeves and started to wash the rice.

@α❅yamazaki kento Minseok pulled a handful of vegetables out of the fridge and set them on the counter. Grabbing a cutting board and a knife minseok pulled the mushrooms from the small pile of vegetables and began chopping. "I'm supposed to be strong Kento, I'm supposed to not let it affect me. I'm your big brother I'm supposed to support you, not the other way around," He said in a small voice, with an airy defeated quality to it. He paused briefly to take the glass from Kento, taking a small sip and setting it down next to the cutting board. "would you make us some rice?" he asked absently, the only other noise the gentle click of the knife against the cutting board.

@β❅kim minseokℋ When Minseok's sobs started to calm down, and when there was only silence in the home with the soft hum from Kento filling the room, the gentle smile never left Kento's lips. Once Seok had gotten up, Kento smiled brightly and got up from his position. "No need to apologize. It's never wrong to show your tears. Didn't you tell me that once before?" Kento chirped and headed over to one of the cabinets, taking out a glass and filling it with water. "Only something small. You're gonna be eating with me." The tone in Kento's voice left no room for discussion as Kento pushed the glass into Minseok's hands. "Drink. Then we can start making something."

@α❅yamazaki kento Minseok couldn't say anything, but Kento's gentle reassurance was enough to quell the storm of sobs. And soon he was simply rocking gently in Kento's embrace. "I'm sorry...." he pushed out in a quiet but rough voice. "Thank you Kento" he continued voice growing slightly louder as he sniffled unceremoniously "I...I'm sorry" he said again, moving to rise this time. "Let me make something for you to eat, please?" he opened the refrigerator and started rummaging for vegetables.

@β❅kim minseokℋ Kento stared at Minseok with mixed feelings rushing through his body. Relief that Minseok wasn't keeping it in, and worry that Minseok might not...'No. Minseok's gonna bounce back up after this. He just needs time.' Kento berated himself and knelt down next to Minseok, gently pulling the elder towards him and rubbing his back comfortingly. Kento didn't say any words, he just remained there, a presence and a comforting hand that Minseok knows is there no matter what. Kento loosely wrapped his arms around the counselor, humming a soft tune that he heard from their mother repeatedly. Kento wasn't going back to his dorm, not after seeing this. Kento wouldn't let himself live after if he just walked away when his brother was crying.

@α❅yamazaki kento Minseok couldn't say anything, he couldn't make a sound without the floodgates opening, he felt the hands around his throat again. Felt the grip close down on him making it hard to breathe, hard to move, he couldn't even reciprocate the embrace, standing limply in Kento's arms. There were maybe 30 seconds of tense silence before minseok seemingly collapsed silent tears streaming down his face as he slid out of Kento's embrace and to the floor next to the island in the kitchen. Silent sobs wracked his body as pressed his shoulder to the side of the island in a futile attempt to stop his body from shaking.

@β❅kim minseokℋ "I'm fine. You still need to eat a little, okay?" Kento pleaded softly, as he looked up at his brother. He was only two inches shorter than the counselor, he had just realized this. Minseok always seemed so big to him, Kento may have never had a brother before him, but to Kento, Minseok was the absolute definition of a great brother; strong, protective, guiding, and so much more. Now, Minseok seemed so small, almost...numb...? Kento didn't hesitate when he wrapped his arms around Minseok, one hand gently rubbing Seokkie's back reassuringly and the other gently stroking the elder's hair. "You know I'm always here for you, right? You can tell me anything, especially it lightens the weight in your chest or shoulders."

@α❅yamazaki kento Minseok heard Kento come in, heard him take of his shoes but he didn't move to greet him, he just sat staring into space. even when Kento spoke Minseok barely reacted except to unfold himself mechanically and follow kento to the kitchen eyes heavy and down cast. "I'm not really hungry, but I'll help cook if you are..." Minseok said softly.

@β❅kim minseokℋ Kento was humming softly as he walked up to Minseok's condo. Kento couldn't have stayed in the condo as he had his own homework and studying to do, but he figured to do it later as he couldn't concentrate. Something felt off and it wasn't hard to figure out one of the possible reasons. Sliding in his copy of the key to the door, Kento silently slipped into his elder brother's home and walked in after leaving his shoes neatly near the door. Kento practically glided towards the couch and sighed softly seeing Minseok curled up on the couch. Reaching over, Kento gently ran his fingers through Minseok's hair with a soft smile. "Hey, did you eat yet? I can make something for you really fast." Kento asked softly, worry lacing his voice. Kento knew what was wrong, but he wasn't going to let his brother start to forget eating his meals. He was treated so kindly and like one of their own when Kento was brought in as a young child, no older than 7. Minseok may be his adopted brother, but he was still his brother, and one Kento cherished deeply.

minseok shrugged the briefcase off of his shoulder and slid the shoes off of his feet in the entryway to his condo. He moved without sound and without turning on the lights until he was slumping down into the couch. He was tired, profoundly so emotionally and he wanted nothing more than to go to sleep and wake up the next morning and be happy. But the chances of that were slim to none.
Pulling his knees up in front of him and resting his chin on top of his hands. He stared at the black screen of the television and got lost in his own thoughts.

@kim minseok Bambam's lips crashed into Minseok's in another kiss full of passion. Actually he was feeling the same way right now, heat waves were spreading through his body, making his tries to control himself useless. After all Bambam was in rut, he couldn't control at all how much he wanted Minseok, but the truth was, it wasn't only, because of that. That beta was really nice to him and he appreciated it, just couldn't help but feel attracted by his scent and driven by the edge. His body was already trembling.

@bambam Minseok let out a small gasp as BamBam manhandled him onto the bed, pupil's blown with lust, arms above his head as the other fumbled to rid himself of his clothing. Minseok let out a small giggle and grinned up at the alpha who stood above him. reaching up minseok grabbed hold of bambams sides to pull him down on top of him. He crushed their mouths together, arching up into the kiss as he did. He didn't want to wait for kisses, he was impatient and couldn't get enough of the taste of Bambam's lips.

@kim minseok Bambam took off his shirt and looked at Minseok. His eyes were full of lust and passion. Actually he felt and knew, the alcohol was already affecting Minseok. He gulped and bit his lower lip, if Minseok didn't propose this, Bambam would really hesitate, but right now, the alpha growled and pushed Minseok on the bed, hovering on top of them. He looked really cute, yet y wanting to be touched, his rut was getting uncontrollable.

@bambam Minseok never broke eye contact with bambam as they moved towards the bedroom. He pulled at the edges of Bambams shirt asking him to disrobe. Minseok was without a doubt drunk, the alcohol having a strong effect on his system and Bambam's scent only made it harder to think. When the back of his knees he let himself collapse down, looking up at the alpha before him.

@kim minseok Bambam wasn't thinking rationally at all, because if he did, he wouldn't be so aggressive. But he couldn't help it, Minseok agreed to help and Bambam was really ually driven towards him. The kiss was breathtaking, not only because it felt so right, but also because he didn't seperate untill Minseok did for shortly and he knew the beta had a right. It was better if they go to bed and asuch as Bambam had such face, a smirk appeared and he got up, grabbing Minseok's hand. "Let's go. I really need you right now. " The alpha had such strong scent that he knew, the beta wanted it too and he felt like it was both he needed it and it was right.

@bambam All rational thought was banished as Bambam's scent invaded his senses further, it clogged everything until Minseok could understand nothing but the man whose lap he shifted to straddle. Their lips never disconnected teeth bruising, mouths , saliva pooling in the corners. Minseoks found their way into Bambam's hair, one pulling gently, the other tracing feather light trails along the expanse of his tanned neck. By sheer force of will Minseok pulled back eyes blinking open to survey Bambam, "We should...." he breathed out slowly before diving in for another soft kiss "go to bed.." he finished, breaking away again with a small smile.

@kim minseok This was Bambam's first kiss as well. And as much as he knew Minseok was just helping him, the kiss felt so right that he didn't want it to end at all, when he felt the beta's tongue, Bambam's lips parted giving entrance to the male. He always imagined, that his first kiss would be something really special and he'll feel that it's right. Just like it was now, he couldn't even explain the wave that hit him upon this kiss. Just seconds ago he was calm and planning to get to know the beta everything was ruinned because of his rut and lust, wanting to be kissed and touched. He had no idea where this would take him, but one thing was sure, Minseok would make him feel better and he needed it now, the talking later. More like the 'Shut up and just kiss me and me' style, just because he was in heat, even though he was inexperienced, he was so agressive towards Minseok.

@bambam The sudden shift in position caught Minseok off guard, followed by the all to sudden kiss had Minseok blinking wide eyed at Bambam's rut crazed, heavily lidded ones, mere centimeters from his face. He could see every detail, smell every scent, feel the heat radiating off the other in blinding technicolor. But it was the texture of BamBam's soft lips pressed hard against Minseok's own that had his eyes fluttering closed and the tension draining from his muscles as though he were a bathtub filled with holes. It was all so new, but so right at the same time, it was everything he had imagined it would be. His first kiss, rough yet gentle, sweet yet sultry. He couldn't help but want more, so angling closer he did as he had seen so many an actress do, he pressed his tongue to the seam of Bambam's lips running it along the plump edge of the lower asking for entrance into his mouth, to deepen the kiss, bring them closer.

@kim minseok Bambam bit his lower lip, it wasn't the normal type, it was the y, seductive type. Minseok was close to him and almost in the teacher's lap, without any further notice or words, Bambam dragged and made Minseok really sit in his lap, wrapping his arms around him and planting a kiss on his lips. Not the usual kiss, but one sweet and rough at the same time. Bambam was and his scent was very strong, he was agressive and couldn't help it.

@bambam ... He couldn't think anything else, all other thoughts turned to white noise as he felt his instincts take hold. With a trembling hand he downed the rest of his champagne and set the flute back on the coffee table and plucked the flute from BamBam's fingers. Scooting forward on the couch so that he was nearly in bambams lap Minseok reached up to place a hand on his partners cheek and lay his lips against his ear. "Take me, I'm yours for tonight".

@kim minseok Bambam followed Minseok to the living room. It was nice, the atmosphere for him was comofortable and actually the normal Bambam would want to talk, get to know the person, after all Bambam was the talkative and easygoing type, but right now the scent of Minseok was driving him off the edge. He had to stay calm and his usual self but around someone like the male beside him this was like mission impossible. He had to be honest. Bambam stepped closer and looked stright at Minseok's eyes. "I would love to talk with you and get to know you. But honestly your scent drives me crazy and makes me jump on you right now..." Normally he would be ashamed of what he just said, but the heat got him and Minseok's scent....he couldn't ignore it at all. Even if he did want to talk, this would be probably the hardest thing.

@bambam Popping the cork on the bottle of Champagne Minseok filled the two flutes with the pale liquid and motioned for Bambam to follow him to the living room, scooping up the bowl of strawberries as he did. Emptying his hands onto the coffee table he quickly some music, low volume, like he always kept it. Minseok could smell BamBam from the moment he walked in and the scent was doing strange things to him. It had a musky tone, not too strong; more earthy and woody than anything. There was a sweet, almost sour undertone that had Minseok swallowing hard under the urge to just give in and let the alpha take him or use him in whatever way he wanted. "I-I'm glad I could be of service to you..." Minseok replied, regretting his word choice almost instantly after they left his mouth. Grimacing Minseok tried to move on with the conversation, "should we get to know each other first or would that make things more awkward?" he asked hesitantly, lifting a Champagne flute and handing it to his partner, taking a long swill of his own shortly after.

@kim minseok When BamBam eneterd he couldn't help but stare at every single detail. Minseok sure tried his best to make this place nice and he was sure the other one wanted to be comfortable..BamBam knew almost nothing about him at all, well he did know his name but was this even enough? And he was ready to bend down and be ed by this man, was it because of the heat or because Minseok was hot? Probably partly both of these. The scent from Bam Bam was really strong and he didn't spare a word untill a few minutes later he decided to talk. "Thank you for helping me." He was actually dying to throw himself at Minseok, right now, but that was absolutely not right, even if he was in heat and Minseok agreed, he didn't want to be too agressive, already realising how easily he could be . Because of this stupid heat BamBam felt like he would loose his senses sooner or later.

(Okay. ^^)

@bambam (replied, forgot to tag X.X sorry)

Minseok sat on the bed in his immaculately clean condo and couldn't help but wonder what the he was thinking. How had it come to this? That he was so desperate to rid himself of his status that he would throw himself to the next available alpha who was in heat. BamBam seemed like a decent guy but Minseok knew next to nothing about him, except that he taught biology and had very few rumors floating about him. Deciding he would get ready minseok busied himself with the preparations for the other to arrive. He changed the sheets on his bed, checked to make sure it was made with exceptional precision, placed a small dish of vanilla and lavender oil on the nightstand to banish any smells that might occur, then dimmed the lights. Moving to the kitchen Minseok pulled a bottle of champagne and some strawberries from the ice box and set them out on the granite Island along with a pair of champagne flutes. it was at this time that he heard the knock at the door. When his guest simply walked in he beckoned him over to the Kitchen island.

(you do not have to mirror this, my following posts will be shorter)

@kim minseok Knocks and enteres insid ike he agreed with Minseok, but without waiting for responce. The place was really nice and Bam Bam looked around. He was a biology teacher and yet he had no close friends that much or someone that would be mad if Minseok helps him with his rut. That's why he didn't hesitate much upon agreeing to come here and needed help with what he was getting through. No matter that his personality was calm and sweet, sometimes strict, because of his rut, he was eager to have and was quiet agressive.
