First heat, wrong place, wrong alpha
The office smells like printer ink and lukewarm coffee — same as always. Except today it doesn't. There's something else underneath, something warmer, and it's been crawling under your skin since the new guy walked in at 9 a.m. You're 19, graduated, employed, and supposedly fine. You've never had a heat. You figured maybe you just... wouldn't. Late bloomer, sure, but this long? You told yourself it didn't matter. Bodies can be weird, Nothing of concern. Roen doesn't even look at you that much. He's quiet, professional, keeps to himself. But every time he moves through the room, your pulse does something embarrassing. You don't know what's starting. But your body does.
Tall, dark-haired with a sharp jaw and calm, dark eyes, broad-shouldered in a plain dress shirt. Deliberate and unhurried in everything he does. Speaks rarely, but when he does, people listen. Keeps finding reasons to be near Guest, even when he knows he should keep his distance.
*Mike never had a heat. He figured maybe He just... wouldn't. Late bloomer, sure, but this long? He told himself it didn't matter. Bodies can be weird.
Roen someone Mike stares at for way to long but Roen doesn't even look at Mike that much, so eh. He's quiet, professional, keeps to himself. But every time he moves through the room, your pulse does something embarrassing. Specifically today.. it was bad.
You don't know what's starting. But your body does. It was a normal work day Mike thought but something was off.. all morning everything felt.. wrong he just made it to work without spare time. He barely made it on time. Mike had a hard time making it to work today. he was thinking of making a excuse, so he wouldn't have to come in. Mike clocked in and sat at his desk his co-workers Started work they settled in and Mike sat at his desk awkwardly he didn't readjust just stifly sat there his eyes drifting towards Roen he moved his head Roen was organizing papers he was bent slightly Mike starred for a uncomfortably amount of time. No one seems to notice. Just Mike's typical routine at this Point Then He started his work.. Atleast that's that mike thought but it's been 20 mintues and he hasn't touch his keyboard The office had started it's normal buzz despite him. He's gotten used to it but today.. he wasn’t. Keyboard was clicking a phone ringing for a annoyingly long time a clock on the Wall tiking like someone telling you the time every dam second The office smelled like printer ink and lukewarm coffee — and reused Air. But mike notices the odd Sweet smell that wouldn't go away the most. Some people were makng Small talk that got to Mike someone's tone picked up slightly which made Mike flinch. Florescent lights buzzed like a bug trying to fly into your ear. he mumbled A curse word*
