ONE DAY LATER
I wobble as I make my way down the apartment aisle. Shit what is his fucking apartment number again. I focus my eyes locating the one I was looking for. I crash against the door before banging on the door as I breathe hard. He is the only person I trust talking to right now. I don't have a choice… The door flies open, and I barely catch myself in time. I was about to hit the floor.
"Bakugou," says Todoroki in surprise. I watch his eyes widen as he catches my scent balling his hands into a fist.
"I need Deku…" I choke out.
"Shouto," I hear Midoriya say from inside the apartment. "What's going on?" He appears at the door that green hair looking like he rolled out of bed. Midoriya springs into action making me glad I came here. "Kacchan, oh my god." Midoriya pushes his mate aside picking me up bridal style.
"I can walk damnit!" I hiss. I wanted his help not to be babied.
"No, you can't," says Midoriya taking me further into his apartment. He takes me inside their guest room laying me on the bed. "Shouto, prepare some herbal tea for Kacchan. Cook some beef stir fry as well."
"Deku, I don't need…"
"Shut up!" he snaps shocking me. I shut my mouth as Todoroki is doing what Midoriya asks. Midoriya gets up closing the door before turning to face me. He looks so serious. "What the hell are you doing here? I know you mated an alpha. The scent is beyond heavy." Midoriya goes to the draw pulling out a tee shirt and some pajama pants for me.
"I don't need your clothes," I mutter.
"Yes, you do if you are going to be staying here," says Midoriya. He walks over to me. "You know the alpha is suppose to be caring for you until tomorrow."
"Whatever," I mutter. Midoriya sets the cloths on the bed.
"Go ahead and get changed," he tells me. "I'll be right back." Midoriya walks out of the guest room. I stare down at the clothes he left feeling mad all over again. I ball up my fist but slowly stand up changing into the clothes he provided me. They are a little smaller than I like but I am slightly taller than him. I sit back down on the bed with my muscles aching. It was a serious struggle to get changed. It took me damn near 30 minutes because I kept stopping. This is some bullshit. I had no idea recovery was going to be this fucking rough. Midoriya comes back into the room with bottle water. "Shouto is working on a meal for you."
"Thanks," I reply. He sits down on the bed.
"Are you accepting your omega now?" he asks. I open the bottle of water drinking heavily.
"This was completely unplanned," I mumble.
"What do you mean?" asks Midoriya.
"You bet not tell anybody!" I growl. "I mated Kirishima. He went into rut. My omega scent, he liked it…I didn't have the heart to let him down." Midoriya folds his arms.
"I told you that would happen if you moved in with him," he states. Midoriya is the only person who knows I am an omega. That is only because of my mom and her big fucking mouth.
"I can't help that my fucking omega wanted to help this alpha in rut!" I exclaim. "Fucking bitch better be glad I gave in." Midoriya shakes his head.
"So this was your first time mating then…." he says slowly. My cheeks get hot as I look down.
"Yeah….." I say lowly.
"Oh my god….." says Midoriya covering his mouth for a moment. "Like how did you make it this far?"
"With determination," I snap. "I wasn't going to be fucking because my omega wanted to. I want to do it on my terms!" Midoriya nods.
"I get that," he replies. "I know Kirishima would have cared for you. I don't understand….." I couldn't face him. I had no choice the day after. My body kept locking up. I couldn't even shower. Kirishima had to give me a bath. He literally had to do everything. I can't lie it was a little nice to be cater to.
"He kept looking at me all funny," I explain. "Like I don't want things to change."
"They don't have to change," says Midoriya. "You need to talk about this with him. Let him know you feel."
"No," I reply. Midoriya should know as well as anyone I'm not the best of expressing myself. Only when it comes to kicking ass.
"Okay, bad choice of words," sighs Midoriya. "Kirisihima is not a mind reader. Let him know what you want. He will respect what you want."
"At this point I don't even know if I can live with him anymore," I admit.
"Why not?" asks Midoriya sadly. And here he goes….. "He's your best friend."
"We mated!" I practically scream. "I told you he doesn't look at me the same."
"That doesn't mean he views you as any less," says Midoriya. He looks towards the door as Todoroki is knocking. "Come in." Todoroki comes in with my food.
"Hey," he replies. "I got your food."
"Thanks," I reply. Todoroki is standing there not moving. I know Kirishima scent can be that off putting. "What now?"
"Can I talk to you alone?" asks Todoroki. Midoriya looks surprised as much as I do. I shake it off.
"What for?" I ask.
"I'd rather not discuss it in front of my mate," he explains. Now he has my interest. Something he doesn't want to discuss in front Midoriya? He tells Midoriya everything. I nod my head yes. Midoriya stands up walking over to Todoroki.
"Let me know when you are done" he states. "Thank you for preparing his meal." He leans up scenting Todoroki. I would say he feels threatened by me but Todoroki scents him back in a loving gesture. It makes me think of how Kirishima scenting me made me feel. I ball up my fist. "Do get up without my assistance Kacchan."
"Uh huh," I huff. Midoriya leaves out the room closing the door. Todoroki walks over sitting my bowl on the nightstand.
"I hope you don't mind if I stand," he states.
"Not at all," I reply glancing at the food he made. My stomach grumbles loudly.
"By all means eat," he replies gesturing to the bowl.
"Didn't you need to ask me some shit?" I question.
"I just wanted to talk," he replies. "You can chime in if you want to."
"Great," I reply grabbing that bowl. I dig in immediately. Hmmm Todoroki is a good cook. Almost as good as me.
"As an alpha I never wanted to mate," he explains. I continue to stare him knowing that to be true. In school his scent was so strong because his alpha wanted to mate. It was getting out of hand where the teachers and staff school was going to have to force him to mate or he couldn't attend classes with everyone else. He almost cracked my inner omega a few times annoying the hell out of me. Kirishima scent was far worse for my inner omega. He smells so damn cozy. "I find to be…..demeaning in a sense."
"Glad someone agrees," I say with my mouth full. Todoroki nods.
"Whole heartedly," he replies. "I'm not asking for much out of life. I just wanted to get away from my father and be the best hero I can be. I'm not sure what happened with you but Midoriya offering to mate me saved my life." I raise an eyebrow slowing down on my chewing.
"How so?" I ask.
"Found out some stuff about my dad," he explains. "It upset me. A lot. I went into rut ten times over during spring break our 2nd year. Had Midoriya not been there. I would have hurt someone. It's hard to explain. As an alpha we want to be mated, wanted but most alphas aren't going to admit that. We need that sexually connection or our alpha will become lost inside our anger. It's like descending into madness. I tore my room apart in rage. Lucky for me Midoriya was on my floor and heard me. The thing that still shocks me to this day is he didn't run from me. He ran towards me. He didn't care. He put himself on the line for me. It wasn't just because his omega wanted to relieve me. He wanted to stop me from destroying myself and those around me."
"Whoa…." I mutter. "That is deep man…." I'm not surprised. Midoriya has that saving nature about him. He reacts without thinking.
"Yeah," he replies. "I'm sure that alpha greatly thanks you for what you did. Not all of us want to just use omegas for mating or pleasure alone." I think about Kirishima of course. I know he would never just use me. I swallow hard. Did I save Kirishima as Midoriya saved Todoroki. I sigh.
"Please don't tell anyone what I say here," I reply. "I will kill you if you breathe a word of this!" Todoroki nods. "I'm scared….like how…how do you not lose yourself? I could barely handle the scent or the scenting act alone. It was so scary because I could have bonded."
"From what overheard Midoriya say," says Todoroki. "No judgement on my part. He explained to me if you are mating for the first time your inner omega is happy. The longer you hold off on mating the worse it will be." I frown sitting my plate down.
"Who was his first mate?" I ask. Todoroki growls. Oh shit…..
"Sorry," he apologizes. "I shouldn't feel threatened, but I do. It was an older female alpha."
"Man…" I mutter. I had no idea. Midoriya and I don't talk about sex, mating, nothing. Todoroki face relaxes.
"Glad you feel the same way," he states. I shake my head swarming with thoughts. Like how much older are we talking here? How? When?
"She's older!" I exclaim. "How the fuck did that happen?" Todoroki folds his arms.
"He went into heat during summer break after our first year," he explains. "You remember what happened?" How could I forget. We went to the festival when an enemy showed up trying to take out All Might. "The stress of the battle got to him. He went into heat and that girl Melissa mated him….. At that time, I didn't know of course. Probably for the best. It was long ago but it still bothers me." Todoroki smirks. "However, we are bonded. I have nothing to fear."
"For real!" I say in surprise. Todoroki bears his neck revealing a bite. "Wait a sec…."
"He wanted to mark me," says Todoroki almost growling. "I have never been prouder." An omega doesn't need to mark their mate. I have never seen an omega mark their alpha. I instantly become jealous. Todoroki glances at me. "I'm sure your alpha would be just as proud." Sad thing is I think Kirishima would be delighted.
"So when did you guys bond?" I ask. "I mean you don't smell any different."
"We do," says Todoroki. "You're just drowning in your alpha scent. I'm not an omega but I will tell you that you are fiercest one I have ever seen. You don't allow your inner omega to control you." It's so nice to hear that. "I won't tell anyone. I know Midoriya wants to talk to you some more. Hopefully you think about what I said." I nod because his insight was certainly helpful. Todoroki heads out of the room and I glance at my phone on the nightstand. It has been going off like crazy. I'm not ready to talk to him yet.
"Still hunger?" asks Midoriya walking into the room.
"No, I'm good," I reply. I stare at him debating if I should ask the questions I now have. I mean he's bonded. "Um can I ask you a question?"
"Of course you can Kacchan," he says walking towards me. He sits down on the side of the bed. "To be honest I wasn't sure what to say to you. I don't want you to feel like I'm treating you like some weak omega."
"Thanks," I reply folding my arms. "I kind of wanted to know about the bonding." Midoriya mouth drops open in surprise. "Like I can't really scent it and I didn't see your bond bite. Midoriya chuckles.
"It's on the back of my neck," he explains. Midoriya lifts his curly green hair turning away from me. The bite Todoroki left on him is certainly going to scar. That bite looks deep as fuck.
"Damn," I mutter. "Did it hurt?" He lets his hair fall facing me once more.
"Not at all," he replies. "When you choose your alpha, and he accepts you. Your inner omega knows. The bites never hurt. If anything, it feels like my prostate is being stroked." I start coughing not expecting him to say that. Midoriya hands me some water which I happily take. "I know being an omega is hard. Trust me I hate the heats every month as anybody. It's not so bad being bonded though. Having the right partner can change everything."
"Stop it with that sappy shit," I sneer.
"Whatever," says Midoriya. "I know your inner omega is wanting a strong, confident alpha to bond you. We all do. It's so hard to find."
"I know but….." I mutter. Midoriya eyes widen as he jumps up from the bed bolting to the guestroom doorway. "Aw shit…." I can scent Kirishima from here. I hear a lot of growling. "Fuck, please tell me he didn't set Todoroki off." As much as it pains me, I stand up slowly walking towards the guest door. I continue out and down the hall.
"I need you to calm down," says Midoriya.
"Where is my omega!" snaps Kirishima. "This has nothing to do with you! He needs me. I should be the one caring for him. Not you, not Todoroki!" Todoroki is standing still but I can scent him ready to attack as he growls lowly. Does Kirishima really care for me that much?
"Spikey," I hiss leaning onto the wall. "Stop yelling." Kirishima shoots past Todoroki. Midoriya grabs Todoroki immediately scenting him. Kirishima grabs my face doing the same. I wasn't ready. My eyes flutter before rolling into the back of my head. God damn this feels intoxicating as he sweeps softly over my neck scent glands.
"What were you thinking Katsuki!" he demands looking at me. "I was fucking worried. You just…..you just got up and left. You aren't ready!" I shake my head trying to think clearly. My lust was just about to spill over so thank god he stopped scenting me.
"I am grown," I huff. "I only needed help yesterday."
"Are you kidding me," he replies. "You can barely stand! Look at you. You are leaning against the wall. Can't even stand upright. I'm your alpha. I'm suppose to care for you." I blush looking down. Not just his emotions but him claiming me already. He called me his omega and now he saying he is my alpha.
"We aren't bonded," I mutter.
"So fucking what!" he snaps. "You mated me during my rut. You broke your body down for me. I'm suppose to nurse you back to health. You weren't taking my calls or texts. All you had to do was press my number and my ass would have been right there."
"I know but…."
"No buts!" says Kirishima flexing his alpha in front of me. I feel the power submitting immediately. "Midoriya, Todoroki, I apologize for the invasion. I'm taking Katsuki out of here."
"That's fine," replies Midoriya. "No need to return the clothes."
"I'm going to burn them," states Kirishima as he picks me up bridal style. "No offense. I don't want anyone scent on him but mine."
"None taken," says Midoriya. "Let me grab Kacchan phone." Midoriya goes to grab my phone while my inner omega refuses to let me move. Ain't this some bullshit. "Where do you want me to place the phone?"
"In my back pocket," instructs Kirishima. "Thank you both for everything you did."
"I would want the same in return," says Todoroki.
"D-did you call him?" I stammer.
"Shhh…" says Kirishima walking out the door. "We will talk more once we get home." Home? Oh god… He's talking as if he owns me already. I'm glad Kirishima didn't try to talk to me on the way to the apartment because I'm not in the mood. Instead of carrying me into the apartment Kirishima allows me to walk. I'm very pleased with this. It's long and slow but I feel proud I did so on my own. Soon as I enter the apartment my eyes widen seeing the apartment looked like it got ran sacked. The sofa cushions are tossed every which way. The sofa pillows on the floor. The side tables are knocked over with evidence that our lamps are broken. The dining table is on its side. "Sorry…..I lost my temper when I realized you left me…" My heart drops. He did this because I left him. It makes me think about what Todoroki said.
