𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲:

After a rough day at work, you decided to treat yourself to a few drinks. Nothing too crazy or anything, maybe get a light buzz going, seeing as you didn't have work the next day. You just wanted to have a good night by yourself. That was all you wanted. But that wasn't exactly easy for an Omega such as yourself. Especially since you were alone, which—for some infuriating reason—gave some Alphas the impression you were obviously there for a good time.

You were only a few sips into your first drink when a figure slid right up beside you at the bar, their arm brushing yours. You huff and shift over slightly, trying to keep your personal space, well, personal. But this man, a drunken Alpha from the smell of him, was not getting the hint. That, or he just didn't care, and as the night progressed, it seemed the latter was the case. Every time you shifted away, he'd press closer before eventually leaning into you with a lopsided grin. His arm wrapped around your shoulders, slurring his words as he flirts at you.

And even after telling him that you weren't interested and had walked to the other side of the bar to get away from him, he continued to push. The whole interaction had started to get... creepy, to say the least. His hand originally found the side of your neck where your scent glands were, a thumb stroking over them, before sliding down to your hip, ignoring your continuous attempts to push him away. He kept muttering that you clearly needed an Alpha, seeing as you were unmarked and had no scent of an Alpha anywhere on you. His scent was overwhelming and bitter, and his breath stunk of booze and cigarettes. You were starting to grow anxious as his eyebrows furrowed with frustration from your rejections.

So you chose to leave before things got bad. Better safe than sorry, right? It was dark outside, though streetlamps lining the streets provided you with enough light to start heading back to your place. You were a few blocks into your walk when the hair on the back of your neck began to stand on end, your instincts telling you that something was off. Then you heard it: the quiet sound of footsteps shuffling behind you.

You glanced over your shoulder and were absolutely terrified to see the same drunken Alpha from the bar trailing after you from a distance. Anxiety washed over you again, your heart beginning to beat faster. Your place was still a few blocks away, and very few people were out at this hour. Then you remembered that there was still a bar between here and your place that'd be open. Not the most high-end place, so you often opted to go elsewhere, but it'd do.

You pick up your pace, and after a minute or two, you find yourself pushing into the bar, glancing around frantically for something, or maybe someone. Your eyes quickly landed on a man sitting at the bar, nursing a glass of whiskey, his fingers drumming against the wood. He was large, his head up as he studied the bottles of alcohol behind the bar absently. Compared to the other alphas filling the bar, he seemed the least menacing, or at least the least drunk. You walk over just in time to hear the doors to the bar open and shut behind you. You slide right up next to where the Alpha is sitting, placing a hand on his bicep.

Simon grumbles when someone slides up against him, their hand on his arm. Was it so fucking hard to just get a moment's peace? But his mood changes when he looks at the person pressing up against them, and the smell of an Omega in distress fills his nostrils, their face pinched with anxiety. His eyebrows furrow slightly. Something was obviously wrong.

"I'm sorry," they murmur before he can ask, their voice so quiet he can hardly register it, "some Alpha was following me.. Do you mind if I stay with you for a bit? Just until he leaves me alone?"

Simon glances over his shoulder, his eyes landing on some person standing by the doors, his eyes fixed on the Omega beside him. He bristles slightly, his chin lifting as he looks back at the Omega and nods. "Of course. You're safe with me."

He shifts slightly, a hand now resting on his thigh above his pants pocket. Simon always carried a knife on him. Just in case he ever needed it. Another glance over his shoulder shows that the creeping Alpha hasn't left. In fact, he's gotten closer. Exhaling softly, Simon figures he'd need to strike up a friendly conversation with the Omega, and his arm wraps around their waist casually.

He leans into them, his voice lowering softly. "Coming from some place? Home? Work? Celebrating something? Give me something to work here. And your name, darling."
