Adom could hide being an omega for his whole life if he kept on being careful. Right now, he was living off his scholarship and part-time jobs so he would still be able to afford his suppressants.

They were expensive with how many he needed every time. Most omegas only took them for their heats if it would be really inconvenient for them but he had been taking them for every heat he had so he wouldn't need to experience them. He heard they heats were very painful and uncomfortable so he happily took them every month.

The scent neutralizers he took were also expensive because he put it on every day. He knew only Alphas could smell omegas scents but he didn't want to risk people finding out he was an omega, so he also needed money for that. It wasn't like he was poor, he just had enough to come by. He didn't complain about his life and he was happy with the way he lived right now. Those few side effect couldn't keep him down.

When he finished his breakfast, he was supposed to go for a walk but he was running late already for his morning lecture with all the thinking he had been doing. He grabbed his laptop and put it in his bag pack. He almost forgot the strip of new scent neutralizers and put them in the side pocket before heading out the door and jumping on his bike. His college was only 15 minutes away from his apartment so he didn't see why he needed a car so he had invested in a good bike.

When Adom arrived, a very cheerful Jack greeted him with both arms up, waving at him.

"Adom! Finally, you're here!"

He was way too happy this early in the morning. Adom smiled and locked his bike before he walked over to Jack and mumbled out a good morning and an apology for being a little late.

"aaahhh... last day before the semester ends. I'm so in need of this vacation." he rambled on next to Adom as they walked to class. He had met Jack on the first day of college and they had been friends ever since. How he kept up with his chattering and his cheerful personality he didn't know. Jack himself was a beta and he didn't know Adom was an omega. The only people who obviously knew were his parents but he didn't tell them he hid it when he went to college.

That made him think, today was indeed the last day before their break and he would go home for the holidays. His mother had asked him to come home after telling him how much she had missed him.
