Daniel stood and folded his hand, he watching Rafael with irritable in his face, as Rafi bounce around.

“Come-on, you said you were stuck. So I decided to bring where I go when I stuck and need a muse.” Rafi backflip in the air, and jumps around. He took Dani to one of his favorite indoor trampoline park. A complex full of trampolines instead of floor. Trying to convince Dani to join him. Dani Shook his head in defeat and started to lightly jump. Rafi chuckled at Dani's poor attempt to jump, he took Dani hand and jumped with him higher. Hopping around. It sends Dani back to his childhood when everything isn't completed. And he never has to worry about the consequences.they jump with together and separately. Soon enough Dani was laughing and jumping around.

Two hours later they lay on the floor short of breath. “Does it help you with your muse?” Rafi asked. He turned his head to look at Dani, his cheeks rad and his eyes sparkle, it takes a couple of years off his face.

Dani get up and reached out hand to Rafi, “let's go before all the muse run away”.

On their way to Dani studio, they buy takeout. while Dani draws Rafi looking at him while eating on a makeshift table from an old canvas and big paint cans.

Dani was so into his task so when Rafi finished eating his bucket of chicken wings, a large bottle of cola and as much as fried someone could eat. It Has already been two and half hours, Dani looked at his almost finished painting, he was happy how it turns out it only left him the last layer but he needs the paint to fully dry to do that. So he joined Rafi at the makeshift table to eat his share. 

With paint stains on his hand, face and hair. He took a fries and nibble it with a satisfied grin, he felt that was a productive day.

 “So you heard what Gabi did to his mate?” Rafi asked, he and Ari was thinking how to approach Dani with the database information, he decided now it's the right time to open it.

Dani Raised an eyebrow sign to him to continue. Rafi became so excited, he waited to share that news with him. “our little friend Ari found a hack in the database so he can see everyone in there. And you know how he got to find that? Thanks to our other friend Gabi, apparently Gabi feels like his biological clock is ticking so he asked from Ari, and you know how Ari loves to play detective seriously.” Dani chuckled and asked Rafi with food in his mouth, “what our little genius found?”

“Not only did he find the poor guy, he took control of his car while he was in it, just to let Gabi talk to him” by Rafi tone it sounds that he was impressed by what Ari did. “you want to know what they talk about,” Rafi phrased it as a question but didn't really mean it. Dani was busy drinking his soda. “Gabi asked him to give him his sperm.” Dani spit his drink, he cough for a minute before he can talk again, “what happened to those two, Ari having a playmate in the middle of the day and Gabi full-on creeped on a guy just to asked him… I don't even want to say it out loud, what the hell!” Dani said, clicking his tongue.
“What!?. Ari have a playmate? It's been a while since he has one. And about Gabi I think it's because he is close to the age when his parents get together. And he is afraid he will run into difficulties his parents have.” They both know what difficulties the Green-Galer have been through. Their families where close so close theirs became each other godfather for theirs kids.

“So besides those two crazies, what new with you?” Dani asked and Rafi blushed, he thought about the person on his file. Dani comes closer to him.he doesn't want to miss a word. Like back in highschool when they would whisper secrets above their desk.

“When Ari entered the database, he didn't only look at Gabi's information. He looked at mine too,” Dani really was excited for Rafi, Rafi was one of who believed in fairy-tale love.

“So I get from your look at your face he found something,” Rafi nods, his eyes moist. “Oh.. babe.. what is writing in there?” Dani embraces Rafi as the tears he fights go down on his face.
 Just a minute ago they were both laughing and now Dani wipes his cheek. “It's said that he isn't interested in meeting with me, but I already know how he is. Our work overlaps sometimes. the funny thing is, I felt it from the very first moment we met. But I don't think he even know my name. How does he not feel that too? aren't we supposed to be a mate?”.

Dani looked at Rafi big brown-honey eyes and his pouting lips.

“You said you have his information, and you already know him. Why don't you ask him to go out? unless he already has someone?.” Rafi Shook his head. “ I don't worry about that, it's just a publicity stunt. And I can't call him and demand him to meet me.” Dani's eyes lit up with an idea that just popped to his head,
“ why not? we can let someone else demand him to meet you?” They exchanged glanced, Rafi with a confuesed .
.look, and Dani with a cheeky smile

~~~~~

The sunrise light entered through the curtain, Ari didn't even like the curtain he called them dust catcher. But one day he came home and it was there, he knew who was responsible for that, his dad.
Every few months his dad entered his apartment and added or moved staff around.

The person near him on the bed moves, Adam puts an arm on Ari's stomach. It woke Ari up.
He turned his head to Adam. His eyes still closed, Ari gently traced Adam face with his fingers,his eyebrows, his long eyelashes, he caressed Adam chee, his fingers slowly trailing toward his lips.
The bed vibrated as Adam laughed, Ari pinched his cheek.
“?Since when are you even awak" Adam laugh and hug Ari, he buried his nose in Ari neck. I don't know, your sense is so soothing.. wait! It's not offensive when I respond to your pheromones?” Adam knows how much all alpha and omega can be sensitive about their pheromones..

Ari chuckled and pinched Adam again “I don't think you can offend anyone, besides I also like your sense”. Ari also buried his nose on Adam's neck and inhaled. That makes Adam shiver with excitement, he starts to feel his blood heated. Adam take Ari by his neck and kiss him, Ari deepening the kiss and caressed his waist. Ari squeezed Adam butt. Just as things became interesting, Adam's phone rang, Ari growled and bit Adam's lower lip.

“damt… I forgot I had a meeting with Alex to discuss our approach for the ball.” Adam gets out of bed unwillingly and collects his clothes from the floor, “ where is my underwear?” He mumbled to himself. 

“You know, you two don't need to worry about that. Everyone will love you” Ari sat on the bed hugging his knees. Adme peeks at him from under the bed, he smiles at him, he pulls Ari sweatpants from under the bed along with his underwear. Adam dress up he comes to Ari and give him a peck, he hold Ari face in his hand they locked eyes until Adam phone rang again. “So…  if I don't see you tonight I see you tomorrow.” Ari said and Adam kissed him one more time and left the apartment. 

Ari lays down again,he sighs. Lately, he's been spending a more and more time with Adam. at the beginning, they became friends, but somewhere down the road, they started to fool around. so far, it has been casual, no strings attached. And it's been amazing for him. Adam don't the clingy type and they both having a good time 

Ari closes his eyes as he remembers all thing they did last night. He was Impressed that Adam, an alpha , doesn't mind being dominated by omega, and his stamina… Ari smiles.

Suddenly he got out of bed and went to the bathroom . He didn't have time to lay in bed all day. Adam going to work gives him the opportunity to continue his project, and he is going to have a meeting with his target today. It doesn't matter if he doesn't make an appointment, nobody says no to the Day's. 

He showers to remove Adam scent, if he is going to meet with an Alpha he doesn't want to smell like another Alpha, he doesn't want to intimidate him or to come out as show off.

Ari wore black jeans and white t-shirt and on top of that he put a red flannel shirt. He put his gray favorite snickers on.
He looks at himself in the mirror and gives himself an approval smile. Yeah, it's a good time for some reunion with a classmate.
When Ari gets to his destination, he enters without knocking.
Nick stops what he is doing the moment he sees Ari.
“You know I'm working, you cannot come uninvited.” he told Ari.
Ari chuckles. “I know your schedule is wide open”
“Of course you are,” Nick sighs, “why are you here?”
Nick looks at Ari, Ari already finds himself a sit in front of Nick's desk.
“I'm here to make you an offer.” Ari said and lay back in his chair. Nick looks at him waiting for more information.
its felt like the minute lasted longer.
“Ari…?Just say that, I already know your father wants to do a project together with my family. Following the success of the Angel Towers, we like to use your invention on our new hotel.” Nick said in his CEO voice.
“We are experts in creating safe spaces for Omegas and Alphas.” Ari probably said. “But that is not what I'm talking about. I'm here to offer you what you want since… if I remember correctly… since elementary school…”
Nick holds his breath, he knows exactly what Ari is talking, everybody however knows him since from that time know what or who Ari refers to. He releases his breath, he makes a sad chuckle.
“Yeah.. and what are you offering?... If I'm not wrong, there are two sides to your offer. And judging from your laid back attitude you come to me first..”
“well.. we all know how Daniel can be a little short-tempered. But I don't want to be the mediation between you two. What I suggest is you ask him out,”
the look at Nick face said ‘are you f** kidding me’.
“don't give me that look. You are no longer the awkward kid who tries to find himself. You no longer have long hair in emo style.”
Nick covers his face with his hands. “enough!. Let's talk about business, not a silly crush I might have over 20 years ago. I still cannot believe I told you. From all the people in the world…”

“hey… consider yourself lucky I never told anyone. I like you and I always want you to end up together. But you took your sweet time. So I decided to help you. I know neither of you can be whole…”

“So you are here to help me? As you say I'm not the person I was in the past and I'm sure Daniel also not the same one he was in high school.” Nick said.
corny as it might sound ever since he remembers seeing Daniel, he feels attraction that only can explain as love at first sight. It's too bad he never had the courage to do something about it. Everytime he faced Daniel he turned into a mumble, gibberish fool. He always felt like he lost something, not having the courage to tell Daniel how he felt.
In his head he imagines how he and Daniel become a couple and they were living happily ever after.

Ari looked at Nick's eyes, he could see the hurt in his eyes and decided to leave the subject for now. He was not lying when he said he liked Nick as a person. 

Ari clapped his hand,” let's talk business, my dad and I are really excited for the cooperation. Hopefully our project will open for more options. We are proud of our invention so far we install that in our Angel Towers. So far the response is good. I will recommend that you put the sensors on the restrooms on any floor.." It always surprises Nick how Ari could change from a joking mood to a business mood.

“I agree, it is important to cover all the common areas, for Alpha and Omega. I want to know the sensitivity of the sensors?.” ask Nick.

Ari laughed and said, “let's say I get the idea for that from Rafi, you remember how he was when his pheromones got out of control, I always thought what if we could prevent that from happening before that happens.” Nick remembers one time when Rafi got mad and his pheromones got out of control. 4 kids from high school almost got into a shock. Rafi was so out of it they injected him with a sedative.

He remembers how Rafi pheromones paralyzed him and they were on different floors.

“I put a system in the sensors, when they sense a certain level of pheromones it sends a message to selected people. And if the level gets even higher it activates an alarm for an evacuation. But I'm sure your hotel has their own protocol for that.” Ari said proudly.

He really was proud of his inventions. It is an invention built to help those who are struggling with pheromones, and not always can depend on the medication.
