Chapter 1
"You need to cover me while I raid this douchebags hideout!"
"I die I'll punch you!"
They were at it again. His older brother and that dumb blonde he called his best friend were once again playing video games just like they did every damn day. They always got too immersed in the stupid games they played which resulted in them shouting at the TV screen like two banshees who had just escaped a zoo.
Every single fucking day.
Sasuke rolled his eyes as he threw his backpack down onto the kitchen counter. He had just walked from school in the blazing hot sun. The annoying noise of Itachi and his stupid blonde best friend yelling at the top of their lungs worsened his already sour mood. He was exhausted and just wanted to take a short nap before he had to start his homework but just like every other day it'd be impossible because of all the damn screaming.
"Can you guys shut up!" Sasuke yelled as he raided the fridge for something to eat. He spotted a half eaten carton of Chinese take out and decided it'd do.
"You're home, Sasuke? Bring me a coke from the fridge will you? I'm on this super hard level!" Itachi called from the living room. He heard Naruto screech at some mistake he made in the game and Itachi laugh loudly in response. Honestly the way they acted no one would ever believe that they were two nineteen-year-old boys.
"I'm not your slave. Come get it yourself!" Sasuke rebuffed heatedly.
"You're so mean!" Itachi yelled back.
Sasuke shrugged, not really affected by his brother's insult. He grabbed a plate and poured the takeout onto it. He popped it into the microwave then sat down on the kitchen chair to wait. A minute ticked by and the microwave beeped. He got up and retrieved his plate. He wasn't really hungry but he thought that maybe his irritation would diminish if he had some food inside him. He was just about to scoop some of the fried rice into his mouth when one of the sources of his annoyance came striding into the kitchen.
"Is that my take out? I knew it smelled familiar!" Naruto's wide blue eyes narrowed. His oversized hoodie and wild blonde hair made him look like a grumpy child who had just been woken up from a nap.
"Oh, it was yours?" Sasuke blinked as he continued eating. Ignoring Naruto's anger.
"Yes it's mine, now stop eating it!"
"Since it was in my fridge it's technically mine so no I will not stop eating." Sasuke spooned up some more rice and took a giant bite. He licked his lips to lick up the salty sauce that remained behind, "delicious," Sasuke hummed.
"You have no respect for your elders! Ugh you're so annoying." Naruto grumbled. He glared at Sasuke as he kept eating.
"And you're loud."
"I'm not loud!" Naruto screeched.
"Yes you are. You're like part banshee or something, so annoying."
They had this same fight numerous times before. Naruto was his brother's best friend so he was always at their house after school. Stinking up the place with his annoying habits and voice. Sasuke didn't know how Itachi could spend so much time with such a loud dobe. The sound of Naruto's voice was literally worse than listening to nails on chalkboard.
"Whatever. I hope you choke." Naruto fumed. He trudged to the fridge and retrieved a can of coke.
Sasuke scoffed. "Do you do everything my brother asks you to do? I guess you can't help it since you're an omega all you can do is obey."
"S-shut up!" Naruto sputtered, his scarred cheeks turned an unhealthy shade of red. "I hope you present as an omega so I can make fun of you too!" Naruto slammed the fridge closed and left the kitchen. A metaphoric rain cloud followed him as he went.
Sasuke laughed and continued eating. The dobe swore that him presenting would change anything. He'd probably be a beta just like Itachi and their father so honestly what was the blonde even waiting for? For a boy to present as an omega one important thing had to happen. They had to have genetically inherited the male omega gene from their birth parent. Meaning that if Sasuke's mother had been a male omega he would've had a 50% chance of presenting as an omega. But since his mother was a female omega his chances of presenting as an omega was less than 1%.
"That idiot." Sasuke smiled; amused that someone could actually be so stupid. "And he wonders why I don't respect him as my elder."
"How was your day, sweetie?" Mikoto asked later that evening when she returned from her job as a nurse. She didn't really need the job since Sasuke's father ran a successful business and made plenty for the family to live off of but his mother insisted on having a job. She was an omega and because of that his mother felt the need to prove her financial worth to the family. She never said it but Sasuke suspected his mother hated being an omega and all omegas in general. The stigma against omegas was a hard one to live with. Delicate and not good for anything else but child bearing.
"It was okay. I had to walk home again because Itachi forgot to pick me up like always."
"How could he forget to pick you up? I reminded him just this morning to pick you up from school!"
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "He got caught up in playing video games with Naruto."
Mikoto stopped for a moment, he saw a dash of anger flitter across her black eyes.
"He did?" Mikoto frowned, "every time he spends time with that wretched omega he forgets to pick you up. He should know better! You just turned sixteen, you'll present any day! What if it happens while you're walking home? If you present as an omega you could get assaulted!" Mikoto took a calming breath. She caressed her baby's cheek, "I don't want you walking home again. He spends too much time with Naruto. He shouldn't have an omega hanging around the house anyways. If Naruto goes into heat here we'll have to deal with his foul smell for days!"
"Ewe." Sasuke shuddered. He didn't want to think of Naruto's scent while in heat. He didn't want to think of Naruto in heat period. The dobe would probably be super loud, louder than he was naturally and that was saying something.
"Don't you worry, sweetie. I'll have a talk with him when your father gets home."
Sasuke nodded, finally it was about time his mom had a "talk" with Itachi about the type of friends he hung out with. Sasuke had inherited some of his mother's...distaste for omegas, he didn't want to present as one. His dislike for them heightened ever since Naruto became Itachi's best friend and waltzed into his life. The blonde omega possessed the qualities he disliked the most about omegas. Naruto was delicate, always whining, and so damn complacent. And the way Naruto was always succumbing to whatever Itachi asked of him was annoying too. Sasuke definitely didn't want to be like that.
"I should get dinner started before your father arrives." Mikoto noted. "A happy husband is the key to a happy marriage!"
Sasuke nodded again. He absentmindedly turned back to the TV and tuned out the rest of the things his mother was prattling on about.
"What are you watching, loser?" Itachi asked as he came down the stairs a few minutes later, lured down by the smell of food cooking.
"Nothing important." Sasuke replied without looking away from the TV. He was still irritated from earlier. Why did his brother have to have such poor taste in friends? Couldn't he just find a nice beta or alpha to be best friends with?
Itachi suddenly jumped on top of Sasuke. Sasuke pushed against his brother's heavy body but he couldn't even budge Itachi. Itachi was older and considerably much stronger than him. But that didn't mean Sasuke was going to allow his brother to manhandle him.
"Get off of me!" Sasuke muffled against the skin of Itachi's arm. He opened his mouth and chomped down as hard as he could.
"Fuck, okay. Don't bite, that hurts." Itachi chuckled and hopped off. He cradled Sasuke's cheeks in his hands and kissed his forehead. Sasuke cringed. Itachi never kissed him unless he wanted something. "My sweet little brother please forgive me for attacking you, you looked so annoyed I simply wanted to entertain you."
"Stop talking like that and just say what you want."
"Fine," Itachi dropped his hands and looked squarely at Sasuke. "I need you to do me a favor."
"What?"
Itachi shot a glance towards the kitchen to make sure their mother was preoccupied; she was humming while chopping green onions. "Tomorrow I need the house to myself. Stay at school once classes get out. Do that and I promise I won't ever tell that embarrassing story about that time you fell while-"
Sasuke shoved his hand over Itachi's mouth, "Okay! Deal! Just shut up!"
Itachi smiled and pulled Sasuke's hand away, "Nice doing business with you, loser."
"Why do you need the house to yourself anyways?"
Itachi's smiled twisted into an amused smirk. "I have to help Naruto out with something. If you're in the house you'll get in the way."
Sasuke groaned, annoyed. "Say no more." He lost interest in whatever it was Itachi was planning on doing tomorrow. If that dobe was involved it was probably something either annoying or stupid. Or more realistically it was probably a combination of the two-annoying and stupid.
"Sasuke, dear don't frown like that, you'll get wrinkles." Mikoto's voice chimed from the kitchen. Sasuke's frown deepened and Itachi laughed.
"You're such a grumpy kid. I wonder what you'll present as. You were such a cute kid I thought you'd be an omega for sure but now you're just grumpy all the time. Maybe you'll be the worlds first half-breed!"
Sasuke didn't dignify that with a response. He rolled his eyes and turned back to watching TV.
The next day something unforeseeable happened. Sasuke couldn't stay after school because it was being used after classes ended to host a charity event. Something about underprivileged unmated teenage omega mothers and their children. It was nonsense and just another case of helpless omegas needing a handout. He had called his brother to tell him about it but Itachi hadn't picked up any of his calls. He didn't have anywhere else to go and wait so Sasuke decided to just go home. He'd just have to find another way to make Itachi stop telling that embarrassing story!
Thirty-five minutes later Sasuke arrived home from another long, heat stroke inducing walk from school. He threw his shoes off with an angry flare. His neck was sweaty and he felt like lying down on a bed of ice. He suddenly paused. Something was off...
He set his backpack down beside the pile of shoes by the doorway and then tiptoed to the kitchen. There was something different than every other day. It was quiet...too quiet and then he realized why it felt so weird; he couldn't hear his brother and the blonde idiots loud yelling! There was also a strange smell in the house, sweet like honey flowers. It made Sasuke's insides clench. He quietly padded over to the living room and ducked his head inside, expecting to see Naruto and Itachi strewn on the floor as they played video games but they weren't there.
How odd.
It was like an actual miracle to not find the dobe and his brother lounging in the living room. Itachi did say he had to help Naruto out with something but by 'something' Sasuke had assumed it meant video games. Sasuke's breath hitched when he caught another-much stronger-whiff of the alluring sweet scent. He unconsciously found himself following the scent. To his surprise it led him upstairs to his brother's room. Luckily or maybe unluckily for Sasuke his brother's door was cracked open. He kneeled down and peeked into the room. He instantly flung himself back-not expecting to see what he had just witnessed. He covered his mouth with his hand to stop the string of questions that were threatening to come out.
Naruto and Itachi were kissing. And not just a light peck of the lips but full on making out. Naruto was on his back with his brother kneeled between his parted legs as their lips moved against one another. He had no idea his brother and Naruto were like that! Itachi always called Naruto his best friend so he had assumed that was what they were. Apparently not. "Best-friends" didn't do those kind of things with each other. No wonder Itachi wanted the house to himself. He wanted to help Naruto with his heat. It made sense, betas were the only ones who weren't affected by an omegas pheromones while in heat so they were the "go to" choice for unmated omegas to spend their heats with...or at least that's what Sasuke had heard.
Just then Naruto let out a pained moan. The high-pitched whine made Sasuke feel tingly inside. He didn't know why because usually Naruto's whines annoyed him. He shoved his fingers in his ears; he didn't want to hear the dobe moaning! Sasuke's face felt hot, his body overheated and sweaty. He didn't even sweat this much during his long ass walks from school in the sun!
He was plugging his ears but Sasuke could still hear Naruto's loud whimpers. He knew it; the dobe really was extra loud during his heat. Even though Naruto was annoying Sasuke still found himself wanting to hear the blondes moans. He didn't know Naruto could sound so...erotic? It was absurd to think of anything associated with Naruto as "erotic" but that was the only fitting word to describe Naruto's pleasured whining. He hazily recalled yesterday when he had thought to himself that Naruto's scent during his heat would be gross-boy had he been wrong. Naruto was letting off such an amazing scent it was muddling Sasuke's thoughts. He wasn't even thinking straight anymore. As if he were being guided by an instinctual power he went back to get another peek at Naruto. Sasuke stifled a groan. Naruto was on his knees now, his bare ass hanging in the air. There was a strange trail of a white clear substance seeping out of him. Sasuke sniffed and sure enough that clear liquid was the source of the intoxicating smell in the air. Naruto looked completely shameless, baring his ass for Itachi as if he had done it numerous times before. His eyes were hooded and he was biting on his lips. Impatient and waiting for Itachi to touch him.
Sasuke couldn't take anymore. He didn't even know why the sight of Naruto on all fours and submitting him self so lewdly made him burn inside but it did. He wanted to burst inside the room and reward Naruto for being so submissive. Sasuke cursed. Why did he want to "reward" Naruto? He was supposed to hate the stupid loud idiot! He clenched his eyes shut and forced himself to get up. He staggered to his bedroom and threw himself on his bed. He grabbed his covers and cocooned them over his head, trying to block Naruto's intoxicating smell and moans away. He squeezed his eyes shut and desperately tried to banish the vivid image of Naruto's blushing face out of his head.
Sasuke lay there for a while, drowning his thoughts of Naruto away with mental images of gross things like hairy armpits and grandmas in lingerie. He eventually fell asleep. When he awoke several hours later his body felt heavy and his mind groggy. Had he just dreamed that thing about Naruto or had that really happened? Probably a dream, the dobe omega could never be sexy or cute in real life. The dream had been so realistic though...
Sasuke's eyes wandered to the alarm clock on his nightstand. Damn, it was already six p.m. and he hadn't even done his homework yet. His mom was going to scold him about "taking academics seriously" when she got home and found out. Sasuke rolled out of bed. He made his way to the bathroom. The bright lights of the bathroom bothered his eyes and the loud droning of the vent irritated him but Sasuke didn't pay it any mind. He felt out of sorts, his body ached like it had just been stretched and molded into something new. He turned the faucet on and splashed some cold water on his face. The icy water immediately jolted him awake. He stared at his still tired looking face in the mirror as the water dribbled down it. As he watched one particular water droplet slide from his cheek to his neck he noticed something weird. A strange black mark on his neck.
The minute he saw the three dots and circle he knew what it was. It was the mark people got when they presented. One dot was an omega, two dots was a beta, and three dots was an alpha.
Sasuke fingered the three new dots. He couldn't believe it, he had presented...as an alpha.
