You'll drink with me, won't you?

Hae-won found himself in a pickle jar. These lustful Betas had their eyes on him even when they were the same gender.

'And I thought life was going to be easy as a boy,' he thought. 'Maybe I should've left with Baek-Hyun!' He shook his head. They were all the same.

"Come on, don't be shy. We don't bite." They said that but it didn't match with the hideous look they had in their eyes.

'Who in their right mind would believe that?' He thought and stepped back once more before taking to his heels.

"Hey!" They ran after him.

He ran till he got to a dead end.

'Oh no! This is really not my day.' he turned to the two betas. He could only talk his way out of this now. "Come on guys, you can't tell me you're capable of getting a boner when looking at me. It's impossible."

"Tell that to your pretty face and smooth skin." One of them said,

"Well, after that chase, you must've felt a little relief down there, don't you think?"

"Stop trying to mess with our heads."

"But I'm being honest. I thought you guys, like me, would be into pretty chicks. I like boobs and a nice wet hole but I don't have that. Do you think you'll be able to enjoy any of this?" 'God, what am I saying?'

"Hm, you're right. But we don't have those so we can only settle for you."

They stretched out their hands, ready to grab him but he gave them the slip but instead of running, threw his arms around their neck.

"Why didn't you say that earlier? I know a place where we can get that and walk away without paying."

"Are you being serious?"

"Trust me. I'm a regular over there." He boasted.

Even if it was a lie, they were taking it seriously. All Hae-won wanted to do was buy time till he was sure he could get away.

"It'll be nice but we can't just trust you simply because you tell us to."

"Well, suit yourself." He said and finally found the opportunity he was looking for.

He kicked them both behind their knees, making them fall and he ran away, as fast as he could.

"Hey, get back here." They yelled and started chasing him but he gave them a good distance.

He felt them chasing buy he didn't dare look back for fear that he would slow down and they would catch up with him.

'God, you didn't give me this second life to get molested by two numskulls. I didn't experience this as a girl so why should I experience it as a boy?' He thought, desperately hoping to lose them.

Just as he was about to make a bend at a junction, he ran into someone and they both crashed to the ground.

"Ouch." He looked up only to find out it was Baek-Hyun and he reeked of both alcohol and smoke.

"Why are you still here?" He asked and Baek-Hyun looked back to see that the betas were getting close.

Baek-Hyun looked behind himand saw the betas.

"Were you approached by those guys?" He asked and Hae-won turned his attention to him. "Get up first."

"I hate to say it but you were right." He said as he got up. "The world is filled with dangerous people and I don't want to get involved."

"What happened?"

"I… "

"Hey!" The betas called out, breathing out hard. "He's ours."

Hearing this, Baek-Hyun grew angry. He glared at them.

"What did you just say?" They flinched and realised he was an Alpha.

"Well, we just want to have a nice chat with him and… "

"A nice chat with who?" Baek-Hyun moved Hae-won behind him and walked towards the Betas. "I was already in a bad mood, and you come around claiming my person as yours?"

'When did I become his person?' Hae-won thought, spitefully. But he was helping him so he decided to keep quiet about it.

"Hm, we're sorry.we didn't know he was yours." They quickly apologised. No one wanted to anger an Alpha.

"Good, now crawl away before I break a few bones."

They quickly ran away, giving Hae-won nasty looks and Hae-won in turn, stuck out his tongue at them.

Baek-Hyun turned to Hae-won.

"I told you it's dangerous to walk alone at night." He said and Hae-won rolled hiseyes.

"Yeah, I see that now." He tucked his hands in his coat pocket. "Well, thank you and I'll get going."

"You still want to go around alone?" Baek-Hyun asked and he stopped.

It really was a bad idea to walk around alone but did he have to rely on Baek-Hyun again? Well, he was an Alpha and there was no harm using him.

"Alright." He said. "Would you like to escort me, Mr Knight in shining armour?" He asked and Baek-Hyun snickered.

"Mr Knight in shining armour." He repeated. "That's one way to call me." He said and nodded. "But first, I need to grab a few bottles of beer from the convenient store up ahead."

Hae-won looked at him in disbelief and looked over at the convenient store up ahead and he asked,

"Didn't you buy ten bottles from the restaurant?"

"I drank them all already." He answered and hiseyes widened. It was no wonder he reeked but all ten bottles in one go?

"What are you, a drum?" He asked and Baek-Hyun, stunned, started laughing. "What?"

"That's the first time you've talked to me so casually." He said and laughed more. "You called me a drum."

"It was a metaphor, okay?" He pouted and looked away. 'Why can he get to look so handsome while laughing? It's not fair.'

It was the first time he was seeing him laugh so heartily and it felt warm somehow.

"Well, this drum wants to drink more." He said.

"Good luck with that." Hae-won said and wanted to walk away but Baek-Hyun held him back.

"You'll drink with me, won't you?"

"Why?"

"I'll take it as a thank you for saving you."

"I don't want to." Hae-won disagreed. 'I can't let what happened last time repeat itself. I'm not that good at drinking.'

"Then you'll be in debt till I can think of something else." He said with a cunning grin and Hae-won grumbled.

"Alright. I'll drink."
