My Shy Little Omega! (Taekook)
Episode 12
Kim Jisso
Jungkook-ah. (an older aunt, Aunt Jisoo, sitting across the table, called out warmly)
She had a motherly vibe that immediately softened Jungkook’s nerves, though her teasing grin promised some embarrassment.
Kim Jisso
What were you whispering to Taehyung just now?
Kim Jisso
Were you already planning your honeymoon?
Jungkook’s eyes widened, and he quickly shook his head, the tips of his ears turning red.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
N-No, Auntie, we weren’t—
Taehyung leaned back slightly, amused at Jungkook’s flustered state.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
We were just talking about how much Jungkook loves your cooking, Aunt Jisoo. (he interjected smoothly, saving Jungkook from further embarrassment)
Jisoo laughed, waving her hand.
Kim Jisso
Ah, Taehyung, you’ve already learned to defend him so well.
Kim Jisso
Good, good. You’ll need that skill for life!
The family burst into laughter, and Jungkook lowered his head, hiding his shy smile behind his hands.
The next to chime in was Taehyung’s cousin Rin, who was known for his sharp wit.
???
Jungkook, I have to ask. (he began, leaning forward with a mischievous grin)
???
How does it feel to be marrying the most eligible alpha in Seoul?
???
Half the city’s hearts shattered when they heard Taehyung was taken.
Jungkook’s eyes darted to Taehyung, who smirked at the compliment.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
I… uh… I don’t know… (Jungkook stammered, unsure of how to respond)
???
Oh, come on. (Rin teased)
???
You must’ve thought, ‘Wow, I’m so lucky!’ Didn’t you?
Taehyung placed a calming hand on Jungkook’s shoulder, his voice firm but playful.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
That’s enough, Rin. Don’t scare him. (Then, turning to Jungkook, he added softly)
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
Don’t let him get to you.
Jungkook nodded shyly, feeling reassured by Taehyung’s presence.
Aunt Sunhee, a cheerful woman in her fifties, leaned in next.
Kim Sunhee
Jungkook-ah, I heard you love baking! What’s your favorite thing to make?
This was a safe topic, and Jungkook brightened slightly.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
I like making cookies. (he said softly)
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
Especially chocolate chip cookies.
Kim Sunhee
Ah, that’s perfect! (Sunhee exclaimed)
Kim Sunhee
Do you know Taehyung used to sneak into the kitchen as a child and eat all the cookie dough before it was baked?
Kim Sunhee
He’ll love anything you make!
Taehyung rolled his eyes but didn’t deny it, while Jungkook giggled softly, his nerves slowly easing.
Another elder, Grandpa Kim, raised his voice from the head of the table.
Grandpa Kim
Jungkook, my boy! Can you handle Taehyung’s workaholic habits?
Grandpa Kim
That boy spends too much time buried in his business.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
Grandpa! (Taehyung protested, though his tone was light)
Jungkook hesitated, glancing at Taehyung before replying timidly,
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
I… I think I can handle it. He’s always kind to me.
Grandpa chuckled, nodding approvingly.
Grandpa Kim
Good answer. But if he ever forgets to come home for dinner, you let me know, and I’ll set him straight!
Taehyung sighed but smiled, while Jungkook couldn’t help but laugh softly, the warm family atmosphere starting to put him at ease.
Yuna
Jungkook.-ssi (one of Taehyung’s younger cousins, a girl named Yuna, chimed in next)
She was about fifteen, with a curious sparkle in her eyes.
Yuna
What’s your favorite color? I’m making you a welcome card!
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
Oh. (Jungkook said, startled but touched by her gesture)
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
I like pastel colours… maybe pastel blue?
Yuna
Perfect! (Yuna said, jotting it down on her notepad)
Yuna
You’re going to love the card.
Yuna
It’ll have stars and hearts and everything cute!
Jungkook smiled brightly, his shyness momentarily forgotten.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
Thank you, Yuna. That’s so sweet.
As the questions and teasing continued, Jungkook found himself slowly relaxing, though his cheeks remained pink throughout the evening.
At one point, Taehyung noticed Jungkook subtly gripping the edge of the table, his nervous energy building up again as more relatives began to chime in with their questions.
Taehyung leaned in close and whispered in Jungkook’s ear.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
Are you okay? Do you need a break?
Jungkook glanced up at him, his eyes wide but grateful.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
I’m okay. (he whispered back)
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
Just… a little overwhelmed.
Taehyung nodded and straightened, his alpha instincts kicking in.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
Everyone. (he said, his voice carrying authority but not losing its warmth)
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
I think Jungkook has answered enough questions for tonight.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
Let’s give him some breathing room, alright?
The family chuckled, but they respected Taehyung’s request, moving the conversation to other topics.
Taehyung handed him a small plate of cake, his gaze soft.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
You did well tonight. (Taehyung said quietly, his voice filled with genuine admiration)
Jungkook blushed, looking down at the cake.
Jeon Jungkook (Omega)
Thank you… for being there. I don’t think I could’ve done it without you.
Taehyung smiled, reaching out to brush a stray strand of hair from Jungkook’s face.
Kim Taehyung (Alpha)
You’re stronger than you think, Jungkook. But I’ll always be here, just in case.
Jungkook’s heart fluttered at the sincerity in Taehyung’s words, and for the first time that evening, he felt completely at ease. With Taehyung by his side, he could face anything.
