"Light! Where have you been?" Sachiko exclaimed, hurrying to the door as the young Omega walked in.
"Yeah, Light…seriously…" Sayu called out from the living room.
"Mom…it's not even that late…"
"Matsuda told your father that…" Light stopped listening after that and began silently cursing the young NPA detective in his head for worrying his Mom and Dad. "…and you were just gone without a word, and it was getting dark and I-"
"Mom." Light stepped forward and took her hands to give her a reassuring smile, ever the perfect Omega son trying to please her. "They were in a meeting and I didn't want to distract Dad from work, so I left. I'm sorry if I worried either of you." His Beta mother's shoulders relaxed a bit with his explanation and apology.
"You still should've let someone know…or called. Why was your phone off?" She asked. Light paled, feeling guilty as he did vaguely recall reaching in his jacket pocket to push the button to turn it off the first time it began to buzz as he and Ryuzaki entered the candy shop. "You're a young un-bonded Omega Light and it should always be turned on so we can reach you, or if you need to activate the emergency app…" Light rolled his eyes.
Here we go again. He turned to hang his jacket up now and finally toe off his shoes as his Mom followed after him to the kitchen, extolling the virtues of the Distressed Omega Alert app.
Hmph…D.O.A… Light chuckled internally. He didn't think that would ever get old. God…what a terrible acronym for a personal safety and security app.
"I get it, Mom." He turned to look at her. "I was just distracted…" Should I tell her? Or will it make her worry more? God forbid they would want to chaperone my dates tomorrow… He fought back a shudder at the idea. Light wasn't sure how she'd react because he'd never had to ask. It wasn't as if he'd ever shown an interest in an Alpha before.
"I ran into a friend and we arranged to meet up tomorrow morning." He gave her a bright smile, eyes wide and innocent. "I think it's really important I put an extra effort into being courted and mated now as school gets closer to ending, don't you think?" Sachiko beamed. His mother had been pushing and pushing to get him to take a more active role.
I'm just stretching the truth a bit…I did literally run into someone…and I think I made a friend today in Ryuzaki…hopefully more though. He rationalized to himself at the omission of his true plans.
"I'm so happy to hear that Light." She replied, squeezing his hand briefly before turning away, apparently appeased for the moment. "I'll call your father and let him know you're alright. Dinner will be ready soon."
Light bit back a grin, happy to be off the hook as he turned to hurry upstairs, ruffling his sister's hair as he passed behind the couch on the way.
"Li-ight!" She whined, quickly trying to fix it and pouting at him briefly. The young Omega simply chuckled and headed to his room. Thoughts of the two men he would see the next day were in the forefront of his mind as he sprawled on top of his bed with a smile, letting his mind wander as he waited for his mother to call him for dinner.

"Where the fuck have you been?" Beyond called out, a flash of annoyance on his face as he heard the front door to the suite close. He'd been looking forward to telling L all about the Omega he'd met today. The Alpha had been slightly frustrated when the other man was nowhere to be found when he'd made his way back to the hotel, as well as not answering his phone when B called just a short while ago.
The dark haired male was unable to stay angry for long though, as his thoughts returned to the brunet. A smile spread across his face. I can't wait to see him tomorrow. God…I'm being ridiculous… He chuckled lowly.
Beyond had received word only a few minutes ago that they needed to have a follow-up call with the police at 10:30am the next morning and he figured he could head over to the coffee place afterward. He had his fingers crossed that if things went well, the Omega would want to meet L too.
I still can't believe the cheeky brat wouldn't give me his name. B shook his head in amusement and took another drink before turning as L came into the room. The raven had the biggest grin on his face and a massive bag in his hand with the name of a candy shop on the outside.
"Ahhhh…so that explains it." Beyond gestured to his cargo knowingly. "Was there anything left when you finished there?" He raised an eyebrow in question and smirked.
"Maybe…" He drawled playfully and placed the bag on the table before turning to face him again, eyes full of excitement.
What's gotten into him-
"I've found him B."
"Eh?" The dark haired male gave him a puzzled look. "Found who?" His eyes widened in excitement. "Was there a break in the case while I was headed back? Did you figure out who the kil-"
"No, no…" L chuckled. "Nothing like that."
B pouted slightly and turned back to pour L a drink. "Then what the hell are you talking about, oh great detective?" He teased, giggling slightly as he picked up the glass and approached the pleased looking Alpha to hand him his beverage.
"Mmm…thank you." L leaned in to kiss him before taking a sip. Beyond relished the soft brush of his lips, and could feel the palpable energy radiating off the other man. It was more intoxicating than the drink in his hand, and he couldn't help leaning in for another taste.
He wrapped his free arm around L's waist as he pulled him in close and caught his lips once more. Beyond nibbled at the particularly soft fullness of L's lower lip, rolling it in his teeth before releasing it.
"B…" The raven's tongue darted out to beg entrance at Beyond's mouth, licking softly at his upper lip before delving inside. He wasn't sure how long they stood there, just enjoying the taste of each other, the feel of one another's bodies pressed closely together.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
They grinned, both in exceedingly good moods it seemed as they settled on the nearby couch. L practically bounced on the cushions, tucking his knees up to his chest as he sat down.
"Okay…jeez, just spill it…" B let out a huff of laughter, eager to share his own news as well, but willing to let the other Alpha go first considering he appeared fit to burst with excitement.
"B…I met the most amazing, gorgeous Omega today." He murmured, a sort of dreamy quality spilling into his eyes as he spoke. L's head fell to the side against the back of the couch with a goofy smile on his face.
What the fuck? Beyond thought about the Omega he'd met today, how beautiful and perfect he was…he wasn't ready to just give up a chance with the young man because L thought he'd found-
"I can't wait for you to meet him. He's the one, I'm sure of it-"
"How can you be so sure?" Beyond snapped out angrily, immediately regretting it as he saw the surprise and hurt register on L's face. "I'm sorry…it's like you just assume I'm going to adore this Omega as well."
"Believe me, you'd absolutely-"
"But what if I met someone as well? Would you be willing to meet them?"
L snorted derisively and looked at him in disbelief. "Let me know when that happens…" He muttered dismissively before taking a drink.
Oh really… Beyond bristled, offended at his mate's implication regarding his ability to procure a suitable Omega mate.
"Actually, I'm having coffee with an Omega at the café across the street from the station tomorrow morning after our NPA meeting." Beyond replied smugly. L's eyes snapped back to him, jaw slightly ajar as he lowered his glass. "He's stunning and witty…everything I can imagine us wanting." He said confidently. "I'm hoping if things go well, he'd like to meet you."
L's eyes narrowed. "Fine. I'm meeting my Omega at noon at the same place. Stick around afterward, he was very sweet and asked to meet you-"
"Sweet?" Beyond sneered as he stood to pour himself another drink. "Sounds a bit tame for me…boring actually." He called over his shoulder. "I don't think you know the first thing about choosing the right Omega for us L. You'll see…mine is far superior."
"But you'll be there, right?" L's voice was low and threatening as his pheromones poured off him in waves. B flinched at the show of raw strength. He might take control in the bedroom, but when it came to overall dominance, they both knew that L had the upper hand.
"Yeah…sure, I'll be there." He bit out, burgundy eyes glaring at the other man.
"Good," L replied curtly before turning to head for the bedroom, slamming the door on his way.
Beyond sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he thought about the next day. He couldn't wait to see the young Omega again and he hoped that L would at least give him a chance.
His eyes narrowed. You're not always right, L…
