There were laws in the world and laws were made to follow. Maybe for the safety of the people or maybe just for control but the laws were still there and taught to everyone when they were younger, before they were presented.

Tsukishima was five when he was placed next to Akiteru to listen to their mother explain about omegas, betas and alphas. Their ancestors had gone through a lot to fight for the freedom and rights of omegas. They could only bond and get pregnant after the age of 18, according to the law. Heat suppressions were important and necessary for every omega in heat.

It seemed like a whole lot for a five year old to absorb but every parent knew they had to mentally prepare their children before they were presented and Tsukishima found the idea of his second gender exciting. The young boy often wondered what it would be like to be each gender as he hugged his brontosaurus toy to sleep but the innocent ideas were wiped away when puberty hit and he was actually presented.

Kuroo scrolled through his contacts and stopped at the name Bokuto, his guilt building up even more inside him. He quickly passed it, he just couldn't bear to face Bokuto if his lover realised he had not only knotted Tsukishima, but lost his virginity to someone other than Bokuto.

He considered calling Kenma but what would that setter even do to help? He would probably tell Kuroo to settle his own problem. Then again, he probably wouldn't even show up.

He could call Tsukishima's freckled friend, whose name he wasn't sure about. It seemed like a good option if he had freckled boy's number, which he didn't.

He felt tears forming at the edge if his eyes from being overwhelmed by guilt, the pressure inside of him not knowing what to do pouring out in the form of tears. He did something stupid and Kuroo knew that better than anyone else. His eyes shifted to Tsukishima, lying asleep next to him. Then Kuroo stopped scrolling. He remembered there was someone who would help him out and know what to do in a situation like this; someone who would help him out with both Tsukishima and Bokuto.

"Bokuto-san, please calm down." Akaashi Keiji said in a deadpan voice. The alpha was turning and flipping, letting a whole bunch of noise out like he was in pain. He had recognised the captain going into this sort of trance before and several other alphas were getting worked up but not as bad as Bokuto. The alpha was either going into rut or somehow overreacting to an omega in heat and Akaashi prayed it were not because of an oncoming rut.

He should call Kuroo over to help. He and Bokuto were lovers it would only make sense for the black-haired man to get Bokuto to calm down but Akaashi couldn't bear to know that the two of them would be kissing and clinging onto each other, not knowing how far they would go with each other. Then his phone rang.

"Ah Kuroo..." Akaashi answered. He froze, still unwilling to call Kuroo over to help him with Bokuto but he put away the idea of that. Since Kuroo had called anyway, the beta was in no position to be selfish. If he really cared for Bokuto, he knew he had to ask Kuroo to help him out rather than keep the alpha to himself. He continued, "Great that you called, Bokuto-san has been acting up—"

"Fuck..." he could hear the other man... sobbing?

"What is it?"

"I... I fucked up..."

"Where are you?" Akaashi's voice sounded more concerned now. He turned back at Bokuto, who was laying on his stomach and growling in pain.

"I'm in the omega-male toilet... by the gymnasiums..."

"I'm coming right over!" Akaashi hung up and went over to the door. He turned back and hesitated. He knew Kuroo was in dire need of his help through the tone of his voice but he felt that he needed to stay by Bokuto to make sure he was okay. He breathed out and exited the alpha dormitories, believing that Bokuto would be fine, he wouldn't take too long to help Kuroo out and he would be back before he even noticed.

The beta ran as fast as he could to the toilet where Kuroo was, his mind coming up with all sorts of reasons why Kuroo would call him. Not Bokuto, him. It should be common sense to call up your lover when you needed someone's help, right? He stood by the door of the toilet and slowly pulled it open. Even as a beta, he could feel the tension in the air. He cautiously entered and the first thing he saw was the blond middle blocker, laying on the floor asleep, seemingly worn out, his bottom half naked and with liquid spilling out from his backside. Then he turned his attention to Kuroo, who had his hands over his face and Akaashi could see his face wet from crying.

The first thing that came into Akaashi's mind was shock, then anger. He stormed up to the alpha and grabbed him by the collars, "Why would you do something like this?! Bokuto… he… he was acting up too but he didn't go out and screw an omega!"

He looked closer at Kuroo's expression. Akaashi knew the alpha was really frightened and guilty, despite being an alpha that was supposed to be all dominant and mighty and what not. He took a deep breath in and released his grip.

"First we should get him cleaned up and bring him back to the dormitories. And you…" Akaashi paused; he imagined the pained expression on Bokuto's face if he were to find out about this. He was so terrified that Bokuto would break down and become depressed, to a point where even the beta wasn't sure he could handle. But it would only hurt the alpha more if he found out later, it wasn't right to keep this from him. He deserved to know.

"You have to tell Bokuto-san." He finally let out.

Tsukishima opened his eyes, he felt surprisingly at ease. He looked outside the window and noted it was already morning. He tried to push himself up but fell back down and his mind trembled when the lack of energy and soreness in his back reminded him of what happened yesterday. The omega rose, dreading how he fell for his instincts and ended up begging for Nekoma's captain's dick like some slut.

"Tsukishima!" the blond turned to see the familiar face of Sugawara, giving him a calm smile.

"Are you feeling better? We've called the bus to fetch you back to Miyagi in the afternoon so rest up for now!" he could hear a purr coming from the setter trying to soothe him. Tsukishima looked away and blushed, "t-thanks."

It was times like this where Sugawara really showed his side as an omega, caring for his team mates as if they were his own children and there was always a family-like atmosphere because of him and Daiichi. They could always go up to either one for help and when they didn't, the two would go up to them instead like they already knew something was wrong.

"Geez! You should have just told me you were having your heat then you wouldn't—." Sugawara stopped. Tsukishima knew what the other omega was talking about and maybe it was out of kindness or he was simply avoiding the awkwardness of talking about it, but he was glad Sugawara didn't bring it up in his conversation. He presumed the setter had probably heard about what occurred last night from whoever helped him back yester and he hoped it wasn't Sugawara who had ended up being the one to find them.

"A-anyways, you should rest up and pack all your things before you leave!" the omega smiled and he got up before continuing, "I still have practice to attend but call me if you need anything, okay?" Tsukishima nodded and went over to check if he had everything he brought with him, trying to ease the worries in his head by distracting himself.

Sugawara walked towards the gymnasium. He paced his steps at first and quickened his steps as he was getting closer. When he was finally at the gymnasium, he immediately marched to Kuroo and stuck himself to the ground. Without any attempts to lower his voice, the omega barked, "How could you do something like that?!"

Everyone in the gymnasium froze; the scent Sugawara was giving out was full of threat. The only time an omega would show such ferocity like this was when their pups were being harmed or threatened and only during such a time would their anger be so strong that some alphas would lower their heads or back off. This was the only time an omega could climb above an alpha and Karasuno's team members could only stare at the rare sight of their third year setter fuming, without content about what was going on.

Just then, Bokuto popped in and he sensed the intensity in the air. He shifted over to his vice-captain's side and questioned, "Hey what is going on?"

"Bokuto?" Akaashi turned around, his eyes widen. This definitely wasn't the right time for Bokuto to be around otherwise more problems might actually arise. But before he could drag the alpha out, Bokuto looked across the gymnasium to see in his perspective, Karasuno's third year setter intimidating his boyfriend. Several people looked his way as Bokuto ran across the gymnasium, and Akaashi prepared himself for the worst, following after Bokuto.

"Hey! Hey! What is going on here?" Kuroo nearly choked when he heard the voice of his lover, making him more anxious than relaxed. Bokuto glared over at Sugawara but when the latter refused to back down, he turned his attention to Kuroo.

The black-haired alpha observed as Bokuto's face turned from his usual expression to disbelief. Kuroo was drenched in the scent of another person and what's more, an omega. Bokuto stumbled back, his eyes not meeting Kuroo's. He had been avoiding Bokuto during the entirety of last night, not knowing how to confess about having sex with Tsukishima. He hoped in the very least when he did admit to the truth, the scent of the omega would have worn off so he wouldn't be as pissed. Kuroo definitely didn't want his alpha to find out about the truth like this, not in this situation where it wasn't his words that spelled out what happened last night when Kuroo wasn't by his side while he was tossing around due to the huge amounts of pheromones in the air.

"N-no… Kuroo you wouldn't…" Bokuto stepped back, still refusing to believe that his lover had basically cheated on him. He looked down, clenching his fists.

"Bokuto I-" before he could finish his sentence, Bokuto ran off and Kuroo caught a glimpse of hurt all over Bokuto's face. He took a step forward to grab onto Bokuto's arm, to stop him and explain everything to him and make things right. Akaashi, however, stopped him, as if telling him this wasn't the time for him to be around Bokuto and he was right, Kuroo's presence would just agitate the alpha further.

"I think he already knows what he has done wrong," Akaashi looked over at Sugawara who nodded back. Last night, Akaashi had told Kuroo to cool his head as he brought Tsukishima back to the dormitories. Along the corridors, he bumped into Karasuno's third year setter who quickly asked about the blond before bringing him to an empty room where he could rest without revealing what happened to anyone else. Akaashi felt glad there was someone else to help him out in such a calm manner even though he knew the omega was boiling inside, enraged that his junior was knotted and he couldn't do anything about it.

The silver-haired omega gave one last warning, "Don't you ever go near Tsukishima ever again!" He stormed off to his team mates who would later try and calm him down and ask for details on what was going on, though the setter would refuse to give out any information for the sake of Tsukishima, not even to Yamaguchi. Kuroo could only continue practicing, he didn't have any excuses for himself and he didn't know what to do to make amends. It was killing him inside that even when no one else was screaming at him and blaming him for last night's incident, his own conscious would be scolding him inside his head. Several times he would miss a shot, or make the wrong move and cause the team a point until the coach subbed him out.

Meanwhile, Tsukishima stood under the shelter shading him away from the fire ball hanging in the sky, waiting for the bus to fetch him back home. He didn't know if he wanted to recall being fucked by Kuroo, or if he wanted to forget it all and move on. He remembers the scent on Kuroo he had noticed before he had gone into the heat craze. The alpha was taken and if Tsukishima's nose was right, he was taken by Bokuto. The blond wasn't exactly sure as he hadn't ever met two alphas that were together in a romantic relationship but he didn't ignore how those two were incredibly close almost all the time.

"T-Tsukki!" he heard a familiar voice that swept away all his worries and turned around to meet the eyes of Yamaguchi.

"I... I heard you were being sent home... A-are you alright?" Tsukishima could hear the concern in his words. He wanted to tell his friend about his heat and Kuroo but he was scared, even slightly embarrassed about sharing the information.

'Be honest.'

"Nothing happened. It's just... my heat is early..." Tsukishima ignored his own mind. The blond had yet to realise what had happened in the gymnasium and Yamaguchi covered his mouth with his hands, piecing all the information together in his head.

The bus drove in front of the shelter and came to a halt. Tsukishima got up and said a simple "Bye" before boarding, his friend sitting in silence still wondering if Tsukishima did not trust him enough.

Tsukishima was finally home. He bolted up the stairs without even announcing his presence, ignoring his brother's questions on why he was back so early from the training camp. All that mattered now was getting to his room and pleasuring himself. The omega had already felt it on the bus, that his heat was rising again and he decided it were best to just hold it in until he got back to the comforts of his room rather than take another pill and wait in anticipation.

The omega threw himself on the bed and pulled out a dildo from the drawers, placing it on his bed. He removed his pants, already slightly wet from slick and his rock hard dick.

Tsukishima kneeled on his bed and impatiently stuck two fingers into his wet hole. He felt his insides trembling as his fingers scissored his hole to spread further apart. He fell with his chest now touching the sheets of his bed and he looked in front of him to see the purple dildo.

"K-Kuroo..." he moaned out, imagining the alpha behind him being the one playing with his ass. The omega's dick twitched, feeling exposed from being uncovered and untouched. He used his other free hand to grab on tightly and stroked it hard and fast.

He inserted a third finger. "Mmm... Ah! Alph- Kuroo..." his own omega's method of thinking had somehow assumed his alpha was Kuroo and Tsukishima knew he would regret calling out Kuroo's name repeatedly later on but now he was so engrossed in himself and his imaginary alpha.

As Tsukishima increased the speed he used to stroke his dick with, he removed the three fingers and reached out for the dildo. His entire body jumped slightly in excitement, remembering how Kuroo was pushing himself inside of him yesterday night, how tight he was when the knot felt and how he was squirming under an alpha. For once, he felt that Hinata wasn't an unreachable rival anymore. He felt royal even if it meant his king was Kuroo and he would have to be the concubine. Tsukishima was seen as an omega in Kuroo's eyes and he wasn't pushed away and that was more than enough to make him feel good about himself. He lust for Kuroo.

The omega pushed his legs further apart and pushed the tip of the dildo in. He moaned with a hint of disappointment. It wasn't as big as the actual alpha's member and the dildo wasn't going to form a knot or spill seeds inside him. Once he had gotten a taste of the real thing, his standards rose and craved for an alpha more than he ever had.

Tsukishima sat back up and eased himself onto the dildo, still rubbing his cock which was pouring out pre-cum. He imagined himself sitting on top of Kuroo, with the alpha examining his reactions to every movement and thrust. His face burnt and he leaned forward to press his mouth on his pillow, pretending it were Kuroo's lips.

He shifted his head to the side and moved his lips together and apart. Tsukishima moved his hips back, the dildo going deeper. He bit into his pillow case, and he felt his dick reaching its limit.

The words Kuroo had said to him before played on repeat in his mind. "Then... cum..." The white fluid spilled out all over his sheets.

The omega separated his teeth from the pillow case and sat back up, feeling the dildo on the walls inside his ass. He whimpered as he held down the dildo and moved up to free the dildo from himself, leaving behind a string of slick between his hole and the toy.

The omega slowly placed himself onto the bed, with his back on the sheets. He could feel all the fluid against his back but he needed to catch his breath before he proceeded to clean up.

His face lit up, picturing Kuroo's face next to his. He had fine black hair though they were always styled messily and cat-like eyes that seemed to be able to see through Tsukishima easily. His smile was honestly, a pain in the ass but Tsukishima still felt it was attractive. He wanted an alpha and he wanted it to be Kuroo. But he was taken. He felt a pain in his heart and turned to his sides, burying his face into the pillow. The pillow was damped from his saliva earlier. He was terrified that he may never be with Kuroo or maybe any other alpha at all.

Tsukishima could blame his own stupid instincts for lusting for Kuroo so bad but his heart told him he was already falling for the alpha just because. He, like his bed, was a complete mess.

"Kuroo..."
