That was something Tiffany didn’t know about herself. How much of a lovey dovey she could be. 

For all her life she’s always been more concerned about herself than others, her ual partners only mattered at the time of the deed, and she couldn’t deal with clingy people at all, always thinking that they were fools and silly. 

But she could never tell that, one day, she would become that type of person. 

90% of her thoughts are concentrated on Taeyeon’s well-being now, the rest 10% was divided by her friends and work. She was always following Taeyeon around whenever she could and often offered to make her meals herself, one thing that Taeyeon clearly takes advantage of as she wasn’t really good at cooking. Sunny and Yoona also noticed Tiffany’s behavior change and the shortie even dared to ask the alpha to cook for her once, to which Tiffany blunts told her to “Do it yourself, you lazy .” 

Although everything seemed to be alright, it actually wasn’t. Tiffany hadn't officially asked Taeyeon to be her girlfriend or conveyed her true feelings to the omega. Tiffany, not one to initiate the first "I love you," brushed off advice from Yoona, Yuri, and Sunmi, insisting that actions spoke louder than words. However, Tiffany realized that Taeyeon remained oblivious to her intentions. 

While Tiffany initiated kisses throughout the day, Taeyeon seemed to interpret them more as casual than indicative of a committed relationship. It felt like they were just friends with benefits, except the only benefit was exchanging kisses. Despite her alpha nature, Tiffany found herself unsatisfied with this arrangement, yearning for Taeyeon to be fully committed to her.

She wanted Taeyeon to be her girlfriend. Walk around the city holding her hand and showing everyone that that girl right beside her is her girlfriend…She desired the recognition and the opportunity to mark Taeyeon as her partner. However, Tiffany understood the need to give Taeyeon time. 

Even though Taeyeon continued to meet Heechul without consulting Tiffany and left her to grapple with jealousy, Tiffany remained patient. Yet, her patience was running short. 

Recognizing the need for clarity, Tiffany decided it was time to be honest with Taeyeon. She was determined to address the situation head-on.

“Would you go on a date with me?” Tiffany asked her, her eyes scanning the omega’s face. Even since Tiffany was committed to be Taeyeon’s girlfriend, there was an undeniable allure in seeing the omega up close. Taeyeon's lips took on a captivating pink hue that tempted Tiffany to kiss them constantly, and her eyes became the most charming orbs Tiffany has ever laid her eyes on. 

“A date?” Tiffany’s hearing have also enhanced to pick up even the slightest alter of tones of the omega’s voice. And her hearing was telling her that Taeyeon actually liked the question. “Why do you want to go on a date with me?"

Tiffany paused, silently acknowledging her true motive: to ask Taeyeon to be her girlfriend. "I want you to enjoy a nice dinner at a good restaurant."

"I'm happy with the food you make for me." Pride welled up in Tiffany at Taeyeon's response.

"Come on, don't be so boring."

"I'm an omega, I can't help it," Taeyeon chuckled at her own joke, prompting Tiffany to plant another kiss on the girl below her.

"What's the harm? Give me the chance to take you on a date," Tiffany implored, and Taeyeon sighed, finding the conversation amusing.

“A date? Like the one I had with Joo Ki Boksu?” 

Tiffany smiled, her head feeling intoxicated by Taeyeon’s scent. “No, like a real date.” Her fingers entwined strands of dark hair. 

“You’re not gonna leave me behind to pay the bill on my own?”

Tiffany shook her head sideways. “Nope.”

“Even if I call you by the wrong name?” 

Tiffany’s lips curved upwards. “You won’t call me by the wrong name.” 

“How can you be so sure?” The omega defied, a cheeky smile on her face. 

“As of right now, there are five official names you can call me...” And Tiffany’s left hand stretched out to raise 1 finger. “Tiffany.” 2 fingers up. “Stephanie.”

“Stephanie? That is your real name?”

3 fingers up. “Stupid Alpha.” She didn’t bother with her interruption. “Bright Spark and Hemorrhoid.” She finished raising all five fingers. “If you call me by a wrong name, that simply tells me you're trying to make me angry. And that it won’t work.” 

Taeyeon chuckled. “It won’t?” 

“It’s just you trying to be funny with me. I know that you know my name. Is different from how it happened to Joo Ki Bosku.” 

Taeyeon twisted her lips. “You’re not fun.”

“I know how to have fun!” She corrected it. “C’mon, Stupid Omega, give me a chance!” 

Taeyeon looked away, seemingly not sure about it. 

“Why did you give Joo Ki Boksu a chance when you’ve met her only once; But you’re living with me for months already, and you can’t say yes to me?”

“Joo Ki Boksu is omega kin.” 

“Is this really about that?” 

“Of course it is. It feels different with you.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re an alpha.”

“In my book, alphas and omegas make the best of the best couples out there.” Taeyeon squinted her eyes, making Tiffany chuckle. “What? It really is...”

“You’re not really gonna like to have me on a date.”

“Why not?” 

“We omegas, we...” She puffed her cheeks and the alpha found that adorable. “We go to a lot of dates...” 

That made the alpha smile widened up. “A lot?”

“Loads of.” 

“And how is that a bad thing?” 

Taeyeon blinked. “Well, what you’re looking for...” Tiffany knew what she wanted to imply. “It’s not gonna happen on our first. Or second. Or.. third...” 

“I just want to have dinner with you, Taeyeon.” She said, and Taeyeon stared at her eyes. “I’m not looking for anything.” 

“Hm...really?” 

Tiffany brushed Taeyeon’s bangs away from her forehead to the side. “I’m looking for something, but it’s not what you’re thinking. And if I have to fight a thousand omegas to have you on a date, I know I gotta do it in a way you won’t get hurt. So I will respect whatever is the omega protocol for dates.” 

The omega chuckled. “You're gonna have a hard time.”

“Am I?”

“Omega protocols are huge.” The alpha hearing in Tiffany told her Taeyeon was just joking. 

“Huge?” 

“Yeah, thousands and thousands of papers and habits and acts that-” Taeyeon stopped talking as the alpha interrupted by kissing her. When they broke it apart, the omega exhaled deeply. 

“Would you go on a first date with me?” Tiffany asked.

And Taeyeon smiled. “Yes.” 

~~*~~

Taeyeon stirred from her sleep, finally waking up. As the omega yawned and stretched her arms upwards, Tiffany found her even more adorable. Taeyeon furrowed her brows upon seeing Tiffany there.

"What are you doing there?" the omega asked, her voice becoming incredibly endearing to Tiffany.

"Watching you sleep."

"Why?" Taeyeon inquired, not quite grasping the sentiment.

Tiffany shrugged her shoulders. "Just enjoy watching you sleep."

“Here on my couch in the living room?”

“Yes. I could watch you sleep for days.”

"Stalker." Tiffany chuckled.

"What do you want to eat?" The alpha kin asked curiously, ready to make it for Taeyeon. 

Taeyeon got up from the couch, stretching her back this time. "Waffles."

"I'll make them for you." She quickly hurried. 

"You can't just make them for me. You have to make them for the whole dorm."

"What? Hell sure I ain’t!" Tiffany retorted, annoyed, prompting a giggle from Taeyeon. “You should be grateful I’m willing to make some for you in the first place.” 

"Well, aren’t you a soft ball,  Bright Spark?!" The omega ruffled Tiffany's hair, and if the alpha woman were a cat, she would likely be purring right now.

"That was really nice," Tiffany muttered, much to herself.

"Hm… What did you say?" Taeyeon asked, not managing to hear what she said.

"That felt nice," Tiffany said a little louder. "Your fingers in my hair."

"Do you like it when I ruffle your hair?"

"I like it when you touch me."

…

…

"That sounded way better in my head," the alpha tried, clearing .

“O-kay… Waffle time I guess...” Taeyeon tried to sweep the awkward moment away, stepping inside the kitchen. 

“I’ll make it for you.” Tiffany backed, heading to the kitchen counter as well. 

“It’s okay, Tiffany, I can do it on my own.” Taeyeon grabbed the waffler machine from the cupboard.

“I’m the best person here for making waffles.” Tiffany said, opening the fridge to g
