"You do know that if you go any faster you're going to kill us both, right?"

Shane glanced over at the man next to him, a frown curving his lips down. "I'll be late and I promised him I'd make it to his game tonight."

"Ok, well I understand that but jesus Shane, you're going to kill us if you don't fucking slow down!"

Shane sighed as he eased off of the gas. "I can't miss this game Danial. Do you understand how important it is? If they win this game they'll be going to state." He couldn't hide the grin that now curved his lips. "Allen worked his ass off with the team to get them this far."

"Yeah for the team and for you."

Shane frowned as he glanced over at his friend. "Danial?"

"You two are joined at the hip now and before, you couldn't even stand each other."

Shane looked over to find sky blue eyes watching him. "What's that supposed to mean?" He tried to keep his tone light, aware that where his boyfriend was concerned he was overly sensitive. "Granted we didn't immediately hit it off but..."

"Immediately hit it off? Shane you went after him with everything an Alpha had to offer an Omega and he avoided you every step of the way. Then, all of a sudden he's stuck to you like glue on fly paper."

Shane fought back a blush as he weaved through traffic. "We talked, I mean, actually sat down and had a full blown conversation." Shane didn't tell Danial about them sharing A.J.'S heat, aware of how the other felt about people knowing.

"He's the Junior captain of the soccer team, you're the Senior captain of the varsity football team. What the hell could you two possibly have to talk about?" Danial rolled his eyes as he followed a man walking in front of the truck. "Seriously, he's the typical omega jock wanting to lead the alpha around by the nose."

"He's not the typical omega jock. There's more to him if you get to know him." Shane felt his temper flare as he struggled to keep his voice even. "Allen is a double major in agriculture and foreign business relations and communications. He plans to own his own business eventually and he's smart enough to do just that."

"Hmm, I'm sure he is, still doesn't answer my question."

"We talk about life, our dreams, our desires. We like to just hang out and enjoy each other's company. He's not just your typical omega jock Danial." Shane let out a soft sigh of relief as they pulled into the stadium parking lot. "He makes me laugh and after what happened with Marissa, I need that." Shane felt his hands tightening on the steering wheel, struggling to forget the pain of losing her to a drunk driver. "He's helped with me not feeling so guilty."

"Then I guess I can't be mad then. God knows we've all tried to get you to open up after the accident."

Shane nodded, eyes scanning the parking lot for a space. He found one and quickly pulled into the spot. "Yeah, well, Allen has made sure that I don't blame myself as much." Shane wouldn't admit that they spent most of their time cuddled together talking about their fears and wishes. They talked about their futures and how they could still remain together.

"Well, it's good to see you smiling again. You've been down for almost two years, may not be a huge fan of Styles but if he makes you happy then hey who am I to stop it?"

"Thanks Danial, will help with the rest of the team if you're not such an ass anymore." Shane laughed as they left the truck. Glancing around the crowded lot, he spotted the bike near the team entrance. "He's already here." Stomach fluttering, Shane followed Danial to the main gate. "Glad he made it ok."

"Didn't want to be seen with you?"

"Worried you guys will tease him or give him grief." Shane turned back to Danial, a small grin curving his lips. "He had to be here early and since practice for us was going to run late..."

"You decided to just meet him here." Danial grinned as they made their way to their seats. "Wow, he must really like you to get tickets right behind the team."

Shane nodded, his dark gaze sweeping over the group on the sideline in front of them. "He said he had some good tickets for me and who ever wanted to..."

"Shane, Danial, didn't think we'd see you two here."

Shane turned to find Chris and Seth sitting behind him. He gave them a quick grin before turning back to the field. Sitting down on the bench behind him, Shane sighed. "I wanted to see Allen, he said that if they win this game they qualify for finals."

"Yep, they just came out so the captains should be following here in a few."

Shane nodded at Chris, grateful for the information. He glanced over at Danial, not surprised to find his friend watching Seth and Chris. "Now you see why Seth stayed out of things. He's dating Allen's best friend." Shane said softly, watching as understanding lit up Danial's eyes.

"You're going to tell me how all of this happened right? I mean, again, Styles has been good for you but when did it become so serious between you two?"

"I don't know, I just know that I can't give him up." Shane felt his stomach flutter as Allen and the other two team captains walked out onto the field. "No matter what happens, he is a part of my future." He felt a smile curve his lips as ocean blue eyes looked over at him. He waved, flushing as the action was returned.

"You're in love with him."

Shane looked up at the voice, groaning inwardly at the sight of Dean and Bray. "Look Dean, if you're here to give me shit about seeing Allen..."

"No, actually..." Dean broke off as he glanced over at Danial then back to Shane. "I wanted to apologize. I mean for, uh, for the whole fight. I didn't know you were into him like that Shane if I had I never would have..."

Shane sighed, shaking his head. "It's no different than if it were Wyatt. Just because he's an underclassman..."

"I know and look, I'm sorry, ok? I never...after Wyatt and Seth explained it, I can see where you'd be pissed with me."

Shane grinned as he glanced over at Seth. "I could have sworn..."

"Hey, Chris was unhappy about his best friend being unhappy. When he's unhappy, I'm unhappy so I had to find a way to make him happy."

Shane nodded, gaze drifting back to the field. "Thanks, after this game we have plans so..."

"Trust me, we have plans of our own so I understand." Seth grinned at the soft huff from Chris, leaning over to give him a quick kiss. "I feel like Italian tonight, so we may head over to Fazzioli's."

"That sounds pretty good and Allen loves Italian." Shane said thoughtfully. His gaze sharpened as the coin was tossed in the air and the senior captains called it. "Looks like they'll get to kick off first." Shane grinned at the cheers from the crowd around them. The energy was high for the game and A.J.'s team was the local favorite. "How about we celebrate at Fazzioli's, win or lose?" He glanced over at Chris and Seth, chuckling as they seemed to consider the idea.

"Well we can survive a few hours of sports talk as long as the food is good." Chris grinned as he looked up at Seth, who was laughing at the statement. "Well all I've heard about for the past week is the play offs and honestly..."

"You're not sick of it because half of the time you're getting naked when I'm..." Seth broke off with a grunt as Chris clapped a hand over his mouth.

"Stop talking idiot, telling everyone things they don't need to know."

Seth looked over at the flushed face and grinned. Licking Chris' hand, Seth leered at him as he snatched it back. "Like they don't already know you're an exhibitionist."

Shane shook his head at their conversation, turning back to the field to watch the game. He was surprised to find Allen watching him, his expression nervous before he turned away. Shane didn't miss the flush that bloomed across his skin, remembered that just twenty four hours ago he'd seen just how far that blush could go. He watched the game, keeping his attention focused on Allen and the dynamics as it was explained to him.

"You really are all about him now."

Shane blinked at the voice, turning to find his sister standing to his left. "Stephanie, what are you doing here."

"Hunter is helping with the little leaguer's."

Nodding, Shane turned back to the field, dark gaze finding the brunette immediately. "Then shouldn't you be there helping him out?"

"I came to see you, to see if what the gossips are whispering were true."

""Yes, we are dating, no, I don't plan to stop to please anyone. I don't give a fuck who likes it or not, he makes me happy and I have no intention of giving him up."

"I just wanted to see him, to make sure he won't hurt you after everything you've been through. Despite our differences, I do love you Shane, you're my big brother remember?"

Shane looked up at Stephanie, a frown curving his lips down. "I know, now what is it you want. The game is almost over and..."

"Bring him by for lunch, I'd really like the chance to tell him thank you and mom would like to meet him as well."

"What do you mean by that?" Shane could feel his stomach churning as he looked from the field to his sister. "How would mom know..."

"You come home smiling Shane, something that hasn't happened in a long time. You laugh more and then..."

"He called the house looking for me last weekend." Shane remembered that night, the team had been late getting back from a game and his phone had died. Allen had been worried and called his parents house looking for him. "He said he talked to mom."

"She likes him, said he seemed like a nice young man."

Shane blinked at the soft statement, surprised at the comment. "I'll see what he says and let you know."

"Good, I'll see you later then. Hope they win, from what I've heard they deserve to go to finals."

Shane grinned as he turned back to the field in time to see A.J kick the winning goal. "After this game I see why they're going." He grinned, standing with the rest of the crowd and cheering. "I'll catch up with you guys in a few! I want to go congratulate him!" Shane waved at his friends as he made his way down to the field.

"Shane!"

Shane felt his grin widen at the brunette jogging over to where he stood. "Hey!"

"Did you see it, the game, did you get a chance..."

"I watched the entire game unless I was interrupted. Saw you kick the winning goal too." Shane watched as A.J. flushed in pleasure. "Great game sweetheart."

"Do you really think so, I mean there were a few scouts here tonight but..." A.J broke off with a moan as Shane kissed him. "Yeah, ok we need to find a room, right now."

Shane grinned as he pulled A.J closer. "Thought you'd want dinner first."

"No, nope, not fucking hungry. I'm going to go get my stuff I'll meet you in the parking lot in ten. Don't be late Shane, seriously I really..."

"I'll be waiting for you in the parking lot." Shane watched as A.J grinned before turning to head towards the locker rooms. "You know, you could have said something instead of remaining silent."

"And interrupt his happy celebration? No, I do not think so. Give him our congrats and you two enjoy your evening."

"Thank you, you know if it hadn't been for your help..." Shane stopped at the hand on his back. "You don't want him to know."

"His pride is what keeps him strong. As long as he and you are happy then I am satisfied with that."

"You know he'll figure it out eventually." Shane didn't want her to leave without speaking to Allen. "At least tell him how you feel, you're his adoptive sister. He thinks you don't love him anymore."

"He is the best thing to have happened to us but we would hold him back. I love Allen, he is my baby brother and as such I will do what I feel is best for him. We would embarrass him with our lack of knowledge. I do not wish for that to happen anymore."

"You know that's not true, he said he thought you were..."

"Shane?"

Shane turned to see Allen slowly walking towards him. "Ready?"

"Sai? Did you...d-did you see the game? I-I mean you were here watching?" A.J stared at the raven haired woman, eyes wide as he watched her smile.

"Yes, I would not have missed your game for any reason."

"You saw me right, the winning goal, I made it."

"The kick was beautiful Allen. You have become a great soccer player."

A.J grinned, walking over and giving her a hug. "Thanks, I'm glad you were able to see the game. Are you, uh, wh-what are your plans for tonight? We were going to grab something to eat then..."

"We will be at home, you enjoy your victory and time with Shane. You are loved young one, never forget that."

A.J nodded as he was given a kiss on the cheek. "Love you too, I'll call you in the morning?" When she nodded, he waved as she walked away. "She wasn't going to come see me was she?"

"Yes, she'd taken off of work to come see you." Shane didn't tell him that her boss threatened to fire her if she didn't show. It had been her refusal to go to work that had prompted him to speak to the man. "She said it was one of the highlights of her day watching you while on the field."

"Yeah, she gave up her dreams to take care of us, making sure I get through school would be the best thing I could do for her." Turning to the man behind him, A.J grinned. "So umm, are we...d-did you still..."

"We're leaving, the sooner I get you naked beneath me the sooner I can enjoy the rest of my night." Shane watched as A.J flushed a light pink. "Or maybe we can..."

"No, we uh we can grab something on the way."

Shane grinned, reaching for A.J., Shane pulled him close. "Good game tonight honey, you looked fantastic."

"It was a hard game, god they almost had us in the second half but..."

Shane listened as he lead A.J to his truck, nodding when A.J asked if they were riding together. "Wait, you rode your bike so..."

"I can see if it can be put in the faculty garage. I don't think..." A.J frowned as he glanced towards the front. "Maybe we can put it in the back of the truck?" He looked up at Shane, relieved at the look he was given. "I-I could leave it..."

"No, we'll take it with us. You may decide to leave in the middle of the night again." Shane unlocked the door then handed the keys to A.J. "I'll go get your bike, you stay here, ok?"

A.J nodded as he watched Shane. Glancing around, he climbed into the truck and closed the door. He couldn't help the fluttering of his stomach as Shane walked over to his bike. Shane was well loved at the University they both attended, being the student body president and captain of the varsity football team, A.J often wondered what was Shane doing with him. Why had he taken such a strong interest in him before..."

"Are you going to keep daydreaming or are you going to answer me Styles?!"

A.J blinked at the face in front of him, biting back a groan to see Dean staring back at him. Rolling the window down, A.J frowned at the grinning man. "What is it Dean, Shane isn't here."

"Yeah I know he's gone to get your bike. I just wanted to apologize for the other day. Shane 'O kinda had to beat it into me for me to understand." Letting out a rough sigh, Dean glanced behind him then back to A.J. "Look, I'm sorry for being such a dick to you. I mean, Shane's an Alpha ok and seeing him with you when we've never seen him with an Omega before just, you know, it threw some of us off. Still doesn't excuse how I treated you though so I'm sorry."

A.J blinked in surprise, unsure of how he should respond. When Dean held out his hand, A.J hesitated, aware of what happened last time they shook hands.

"Not going to repeat what happened, Shane 'O beat my ass for that little stunt, not doing it again."

A.J looked from Dean to his hand then back. He slowly reached out and shook the outstretched hand. He tried to ignore the small warning bell that sounded in his head until Dean jerked open the door and pulled A.J out. "Dean, what the fu..."

"You need to be initiated into the group! Come on, we'll get you two something to eat while we're out."

A.J tried to pull away from the excited Alpha, stomach churning at how casually Dean touched him. "Dean, stop, don't tou..."

"Take your hands off of my Omega."

A.J jerked around to find Shane glaring at them. Pulling on his wrist, A.J flinched as he was abruptly let go, his momentum causing him to go down. "Jesus, that's not..."

"Honey are you ok, what the hell was going on? Where was he taking you?" Shane leaned the bike against his truck, reaching down to pick A.J up, he frowned. He slowly leaned closer, sniffing to make sure Dean hadn't touched him anywhere else but his wrist. "Allen?"

"He was...h-he wanted to apologize a-and initiate me into the group." A.J panted, fighting back the hot wave of need moving over him from Shane's searching hands. "Shane, stop ok, I-I need you to..."

"We weren't going to hurt him Shane seriously, Chris said Styles likes surprises and, well, I uh, w-we had a surprise for you guys."

Shane glared at Dean, wanting to attack him for touching A.J. Taking a deep breath, he looked down at the man pressed against him. "Think we have time?" When A.J nodded, Shane frowned. He could see the glazed expression, felt the change in body heat, and could smell the lust rising off of the brunette. "Honey, if we don't go it won't be an issue, trust me, I'd rather spend my night with you than at a party."

"Awww come on Shane it's just a few of us and nothing will happen with you there!"

Shane glanced over at Dean then back to A.J. "We'll be there but it won't be right now. There's something we need to do first, we'll be by later." When Dean nodded, Shane grinned, giving him a light punch in the arm. "I'll catch up with you guys later, promise." Shane sighed as Dean grinned before walking away. There was no way he was taking A.J to one of their drunken frat parties. Not when he'd just had his heat, Shane was for to possessive right now to want another Alpha near him. Turning to A.J., Shane felt his stomach clench at the look on his face. "We need to get out of here." He could feel the tight coil of lust moving through him as A.J pressed closer. "Honey..."

A.J panted as he pressed against Shane. He couldn't stop the hot slide of need moving through him. Wrapping his arms around Shane's waist, A.J pulled them closer, hips grinding against Shane's as he felt his hole fluttering. Slick beginning to dampen his shorts, A.J tried to get himself under control. When Shane picked him up and put him in the truck, A.J shivered. "Shane."

Shane fought back the need to strip and take A.J right there on the front seat. Closing the door, he swallowed back the hot wave moving over him. He would not attack his boyfriend in public, no matter how good he smelled. Shaking his head, Shane lifted the bike, setting it in the bed of the truck. Closing the back gate, he took a deep breath and walked around to the drivers side. Opening the door, he almost dropped to his knees. The scent that flowed from the cab made his body tingle, a shudder racing down his spine as he fought back his second nature. "Honey..."

"Now, I don't care who sees, your windows are tented. Get in and close the door Shane." A.J pushed his shorts down, groaning in relief at the brush of cool air against his heated skin. He knew he shouldn't want Shane this desperately but he did and as much as he wanted to blame it on his secondary nature...

"Come here." Shane growled low as he climbed in and closed the door behind him. He knew that any other time he wouldn't be so eager to give in but with A.J., he couldn't help it. Since the week of A.J.'s heat, Shane hadn't been able to get him out of his head. For three months they played the cat and mouse game until one night they couldn't.

Reaching for the panting brunette, Shane pulled A.J close with one hand while undoing his jeans with the other. "God you smell..." Shane broke off at the hot hands moving over him. Running a hand over A.J.'s stomach, Shane felt the muscles quivering from his touch. When a hand wrapped around him, Shane groaned low. He moved between A.J.'s thighs, lifting his hips up for a better angle. Shane let A.J guide him to his hole, fighting back the desire to let the beast out and give him his way. When the head of his cock finally pushed into A.J., Shane let out a hiss of pleasure. Despite A.J.'s heat having been two months ago, they were still unable to keep their hands off of each other. In a brief moment of clarity, Shane realized they had no protection. "Wait, Allen we don't..." Shane broke off at the feel of the tight, slick hole squeezing him. Thrusting forward, he growled again, this time pulling A.J up and onto his lap. "The backseat Allen, w-we need..."

A.J nodded as he rode Shane, head dropping back at the pleasure racing through him. "Shane." He panted, desperate to cum now that they were alone. "I'm not..." Arching back, A.J moved back and forth, hands going to Shane's shoulder's as he held on. He couldn't think past the cloud of lust fogging his mind, intent on the pleasure racing through him. He knew he could cum now and Shane would wait, he always did. Moaning at the large, strong hands roaming over his skin, A.J let his head drop back, moaning softly at the fire burning through him. "Shane...Alpha...mine."

The growl that reverberated throughout the cab was heard only by the two occupants. Both of whom were oblivious to the outside world as they let the sweet fog of their pleasure wrap around them. Six months ago if anyone had told either Shane or A.J they would end up together, they would have laughed. Now, after three months together, the Alpha could not go a day without seeing his Omega. His mate in more ways than just the physical, Shane craved the sound of A.J.'s voice. Did everything he could to please A.J, anything just to see him smile. He loved the way the bright, blue eyes would light up when Shane gave him a gift. Loved the way they would darken when A.J would cum. He did everything he could to please him, the Alpha demanding that his mate be satisfied and taken care of at all times.

Holding on to the trembling omega, Shane panted as he tried to keep himself in check. Pressing his face against A.J.'s neck, Shane shivered as he desperately fought back the hot wave moving over him. Head dropping back, he sucked in a quick breath, jaw clenching at the feel of the man riding him. He'd never thought three months ago he'd want anyone as desperately as he'd wanted A.J., not until after they shared the omega's heat. Shane had gone into rut then, mind losing all comprehensive thought as the only thing he could focus on was the sweet smelling Omega. "Honey, please." He whispered, shaking with the effort not to cum. He was usually able to hold back but something was different today. Something was demanding he give in to his mate, that he not hold back and cum with the other. Back arching up off of the seat, Shane groaned as A.J tightened around him. "Allen, if you..."

A.J was to far gone to hear Shane, his only focus was the Alpha hot and hard inside him. The strong hands moving over him seemed to push him closer to the edge. Grinding down, A.J jerked as his orgasm hit him hard. Gasping and twisting against Shane, he came between them, holding onto the panting Alpha beneath him. "Shane, Alpha...yours." A.J let his head fall forward, exposing his neck to Shane. He knew what the action meant, understood what it was he was offering to the other.

Shane's jaw clenched, hips moving in small abortive thrusts as he tried to push back the hot, needy coil of lust twisting through him. He growled at A.J baring his neck to him. Hands sliding up the sweaty, tan back, Shane held him close as he thrust up hard. "I-I'm sorry, honey, I can't...n-not right now." He groaned, face pressed against the warm spot just behind A.J.'s ear. Thrusting up twice, Shane held A.J tight as he came inside of him. Pleasure raced through him, his body tingling as he panted harshly against A.J.'s neck. "Mine." He whispered, sniffing the soft flesh of A.J.'s neck. He wanted to bond them, to claim A.J as his but he didn't want to tie the other down.

Running a shaky hand over A.J.'s back, Shane sighed. He was graduating in three months but didn't want to leave A.J at school alone. It wasn't a trust issue, A.J was completely loyal to Shane. His concern was something happening to his mate when he was no longer around.

"Shane?" A.J could sense the unrest in Shane and wondered what was wrong. "You ok big guy, kind of quiet? Did I..."

"No, baby it's not you I'm just...I don't..."Shane was nervous to tell him what he was feeling. Scared that if he admitted to how he felt A.J would reject him. "Stay the night with me, just the two of us. I'll get a room and we can watch a movie and order room service. I'll get a bath ready for you too, you played hard today." At the pleased grin that curved A.J.'s lips, Shane smiled. "Sound good? We can eat what ever you want."

A.J nodded, watching as Shane's chest swelled with pride. He could see the alpha in him was pleased at finding something to entertain his omega. "Shane?"

"Yes honey?"

"Can we get burgers and fries, I'd really like one?" Shifting against the broad chest, A.J looked back up at Shane, eyes wide and filled with innocent pleading.

Shane blinked in surprise, stomach clenching at the look on A.J.'s face. "If that's what you want baby we can get it. Burgers and fries it is." Leaning up, he gave A.J a quick kiss. It wasn't lost on him that his boyfriend was capable of manipulating him but he didn't mind. Shane figured that as long as his mate was happy that was all that mattered. "Feel up to an action movie later?"

A.J nodded as he slowly moved off of Shane's lap. He could feel his face heating as he thought back over what just happened. "Shane, did I..."

"No, you did not go to far and I am not upset with you. Jesus honey, I can't decide if I want to fuck you when I see you or just hold on to you until you never want to leave." Leaning over, Shane gave A.J a kiss. "Put your clothes back on if anyone sees you..."

A.J grinned as he reached for his shorts. "Yeah but you wouldn't mind so that's all I care about." He watched as Shane tried to hide how A.J.'s comment affected him. "Drive the truck big guy. I'm hungry, sweaty, and ready for a bath."

"I can take care of all three of those." Shane grinned as he started the truck. Backing out of the space, he glanced over at the man next to him. Reaching over, Shane pulled A.J against his side. He wasn't sure how but no matter what, he was going to keep A.J for as long as he could.
