Dean woke up to find himself on top a pile of clothes on the floor of a dark room heavy with the mingled scents of Omega sweat, perfume and leather. The Omega's hand traveled down his body stopping at his lace covered crotch and then it all came back to him.
Dean felt a leg jerk next to his, the sound of a strangled sob came from the darkness. He turned to find Scotty having some sort of awful nightmare. The Omega's long limbs twitched and jumped as he mumbled in his sleep letting out soft cries followed by "no, no, no".
Dean cupped Scotty's face, "Wake up Scotty."
Scotty's sky blue eyes fluttered and rolled, closed and opened then focused upon a familiar face, "Dean."
"Hey, there you are. Welcome back."
…
Alfie's mom pulled up to the Novak home and put the minivan in park, "There you go Sam." She glanced up in the mirror at her son and his best friend and smiled to herself.
The blonde gave Sam a quick kiss, if you could call it that, right on the corner of his mouth, "See you tomorrow Sam."
Sam turned multiple shades of red both from the semi-kiss and for the fact a parent was watching them in the rear view mirror.
"See yah Alfie. Thanks for the ride Madeline." Sam made a hasty exit.
Alfie hopped in the front with his mom. During the drive home he heard his mother giggle, "What?"
"You two are adorable."
"Mom!"
"Well, sorry but it's true. Alfie promise me something."
"What?"
"If you ever want to talk about boys or changes that will occur at some point in the future to your body I'm here to listen and give guidance."
"Um…gross but ok."
Madeline glanced over at her son, "Sam is a nice boy."
Alfie thought to himself, "He's also the cutest and smartest boy in school and maybe the whole world, he treats me nice and I like the way he smells and Sam has pretty hair and he's brave, sweet, strong and funny and when he smiles at me my tummy feels like I'm riding a rollercoaster."
"Honey?"
Alfie blurted out, "Sam has teeth like pearls!" He immediately clapped his hands over his mouth.
Madeline patted her son on the knee, "Like I said, adorable."
…..
When Sam stepped inside the first thing he noticed was the lack of activity. Usually Dean had his music cranked about this time of day as he did his homework and Scotty would be busy with one thing or another, usually doing yoga, writing his blog or prepping for dinner.
The self proclaimed precocious boy thought, "Please let it be yoga."
Remembering his training Sam didn't call out, instead he slunk from room to room searching for them. When he got to Spencer and Scotty's bedroom he heard familiar voices in the closet. Dean was asking Scotty what he had been dreaming about.
Rather then burst in or call out, Sam settled quietly underneath the king size bed. Sure it was eavesdropping but sometimes that was the only way he found out what was going on.
…
"I don't want to talk about it."
Dean braced an arm on either side of the supine Omega, "I know you haven't told me everything about your past and I want to hear it because I think talking will help." Dean was actually a little shocked to hear those words come from his own mouth. He chalked up to being hormonally challenged.
He stood extending a hand to Scotty, "Come on, I'll put you to bed and get us something to drink. Then I want you to unburden yourself."
Scotty allowed Dean help him which wasn't in his nature. He was usually the nurturer but honestly the pregnant Omega felt tired and weak, grateful for the assistance.
Sam felt the weight of Scotty settle onto the mattress, "Yikes…didn't think this was gonna happen. What if I have to fart? Please lunch burritos don't give me away!"
…..
Dean propped up some pillows and settled next to Scotty. The older Omega sipped his warm cider as he watched the February winter snowfall through the bay windows.
Dean wasn't the most patient person in the world but he waited it out until Scotty set his mug down before speaking, "Put your head on my lap and close your eyes. I always find it easier to talk about bad stuff with my eyes closed."
Scotty wiggled over and put his head on Dean's lap then closed his eyes, "Dean you don't need all my baggage laid on you and I already told you my life sucked right up until I met Spencer."
"I can handle the details of your sucky young life and maybe I can help. Helping other people keeps my mind off all my own baggage. Seriously, I want to know."
"Only Spencer knows my past."
"I won't go around blabbing, besides, who would I tell?"
Scotty rolled on his back and gave Dean a dead serious expression, "I don't want Sam to know. He's too young to hear any of this and it's all in the past so it would serve no purpose."
"Don't worry, I wouldn't tell Sam."
Sam bitch faced up at the underside of the bed, "I'm sick of everyone treating me like a kid…I wanna know what happens to people I care about." Sam took a small satisfaction that he was going to hear Scotty's life story anyway despite Dean trying to keep him in the dark.
…..
Scotty let his thoughts drift back to the beginning of it all. Dean knew just a little of his mentor's past but the scope of Scotty's pain was something only Spencer was privy to. He felt bad dragging Dean into it all but knew the persistent teen wouldn't give up and lying was futile. Dean was a walking bullshit detector.
"I had told you awhile back about my older brother the Alpha who raped me after I presented. I had gotten pregnant and then forced to give the baby up for adoption."
Dean spoke very gently, "I remember."
Scotty let out a defeated sigh, "He did it again during one of my heats and I became pregnant. My parents got me an abortion. That was unheard of for an Omega at least back then."
"Still is…we don't have many options," Dean added bitterly, "not like real females." He stroked his hand along the silky blonde hair fanned over his lap soothing Scotty.
"My parents and my brother made it pretty clear what they thought of me. I was useless, slutty, a disappointment and apparently not worth protecting. It weighed heavily on me Dean and I started to believe everything they said about me. I wondered why I was chosen to carry this Omega burden. Was I a bad person in a past life or just not worthy to be an Alpha or a Beta? I know now it seems silly to think that way but when you're just a kid you don't know any better."
Dean knew all too well what Scotty was talking about; he had wondered that about himself. He felt the Omega shiver. Dean pulled a blanket over top adding to the warmth of the other bedding.
"I-I had to run away or I thought I would die…literally die either by my brother's hand or my own. I felt anything had to better that what I have been through. I took a bus to anywhere the money I stole from mom's purse would get me. That got me to Wells not all that far from Pleasanton."
Scotty grew quiet for a few minutes but Dean didn't push him to continue. He felt it was good practice to learn patience since he'd be squirting out Cas' baby around September. Then Dean's would certainly be tested.
"I was young with nowhere to go and had no idea what I was going to do. Quick as lightening I was scooped up by an Alpha pimp. He worked a number on me…said I was beautiful and special. Eventually he said he loved me and what did I know about love at that age? I sucked it all in like a sponge. Eventually he told me to have sex with his friend for money. I didn't want to do it but I didn't have a choice."
Scotty took a deep breath then exhaled sharply, "Want me to go on?"
Dean was feeling more protective than ever. He was a natural at it anyway but the pregnancy coupled with someone he considered a big brother in pain made Dean even more so. He kissed Scotty on the forehead, "If you're able."
"One friend turned into two and then more and more. I'd cry and Freddie would slap me…slaps turned into beatings. During the time I was trapped with him I became pregnant twice." He whispered, "Two more abortions. They never wanted to use condoms and at the time birth control for Omegas was difficult to get so Freddie didn't bother."
The blonde cried as he continued his story, "I-I was so broken down after that…four children lost. Each time I thought I'd have a baby of my very own to love and love me in return."
Dean blinked back his own tears, "I'm so sorry, I can't imagine…"
Sam was under the bed having his own bought of sorrow over Scotty's nightmarish life. "How could anyone hurt him…not Scotty."
"When I turned sixteen I got brave enough to run away from Freddie. I hitchhiked to Pleasanton and took up stripping at, believe it or not, Pussy Whip."
Now Dean knew the caliber of strippers at Pussy Whip because Scotty was an exceptional looking Omega with a lean, limber body made for sensual movement.
"The money was good and at the end of the night all the tips were mine. I hated it though Dean just like I hated my family, my pimp and now an audience full of horny men paying to watch me take off my clothes. Men disgusted me."
Many men looked at Dean as a pretty piece of meat so he knew about the disgust Scotty felt.
"The owner Eloise was decent to work for so I stayed a couple months until I needed to escape again. One of the other dancers said a guy came in looking for me on my night off. I figured it was Freddie come to take me back."
"I left Pussy Whip and started working as a rent boy at a large hotel that catered different corporate events. There were always plenty of business men looking for some fun. That was where I met Spencer; he was there for a conference."
Dean noticed how Scotty smiled softy as soon as he said Spencer's name.
"There was this brutish man getting rough with me at a cocktail party thrown by the company Spencer was working for at the time. The pig kept squeezing my arms and ass, tugging my hair and telling me how I needed a dick in me because all Omegas were sluts. I swear Dean, I wished at that moment for a hero…just one person to stand up for me and along came Spencer."
Dean, along with under the bed Sam, both listened with rapt attention. The nightmare was turning into a dark fairytale.
"Just as that pig was trying to stick his hand between my legs Spencer spun him around and cold cocked him! It was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen. The guy fell like a ton of bricks."
Dean said an enthusiastic, "Wow!"
Scotty was face up looking at the ceiling now, his sadness temporarily abated by reliving that moment, "Of course Spencer was fired since the guy turned out to be the brother of the vice president."
Sam mouthed under the bed, "Then what happened?"
The older Omega smiled like the sunshine, "We went to Spencer's hotel room and he fucked me I don't know how many times. He was insatiable; I didn't think it was possible for any man to produce so much baby batter. We raw dogged it and for once I didn't care. He saved me…"
Sam gagged silently under the bed.
"He asked me to come home with him and I did. I was sixteen and Spencer forty one, I mean I realized my looks and age played a part in all of it for him and his protection, security and looks played a part for me but eventually the physical aspect of our relationship was made all the better as we got to know each other and fell in love."
Dean wiped away some welcome happy tears that sprung up in his eyes, "Damn hormones."
"Spencer was hired on at Mercado industries after Mateo learned why he was fired from his last job. Not only would Spencer be an asset he was also an honorable man in Mateo's eyes for standing up for the Omega rent boy."
"So that explains his relationship with Mr. Mercado."
Scotty sat up in bed stretching like a pretty feline. He hummed and smiled,"After that Spencer called me his Lucky Charm."
"Why because you got him a better job?"
Scotty looked at Dean, absolutely deadpan, "Yes but also because he says I'm magically delicious."
Dean burst out laughing. There was also laughter coming from under the bed.
"Sammy?"
Sam wiggled out from under the bed and peered over the edge giving both of them puppy dog eyes, "Hi."
"Damn it Sam were you under there the whole time?!"
"Sorry Dean, I heard you guys in the closet and I crawled under the bed to hide so I could hear what you guys were saying."
Scotty was stricken; he rolled over to the other side of the bed curled up under a blanket feeling shame over what Sam had just learned about him.
Sam climbed onto the bed making Scotty bookended by Winchester brothers. He forced his way under the covers tugging and pulling them from Scotty until they were face to face.
The Omega gave up, he was in a kid sandwich and neither was budging, "Sam I didn't want you to know any of that. If you thought less of me it would break my heart."
Sam's answer was to cuddle into Scotty and rest a hand on the Omegas swollen belly, "I love you Scotty, if anything I think you are even more special for coming out as such a super person despite what everyone did to you."
Sam literally purred when the Omega grabbed his face and peppered it with kisses, "Oh Sam I love you too, what a lucky catch you will be for some Beta or Omega." He looked back at Dean, "I love you too Dean, you are…" he tried to think of the right word to describe the green eyed Omega teen, "…awesome."
Dean gave in and went for full on sappy mode; he snuggled down under the covers playing big spoon to Scotty, "Don't leave me hanging; I need to know the rest of your story."
The Omega, wrapped up in the warmth and love of the Winchesters, continued the story.
"Spencer came home one night with a big diamond ring and asked if I'd marry him. I was speechless for all of a minute before I told him I would. You see I was already claimed. By moving in with Spencer and sharing his bed he could have taken legal recourses to get ownership papers on me. Spencer had given me a choice with that proposal. That is a monumental gesture for an Alpha; they take the risk of being rejected."
Sam and Dean were beginning to see the sarcastic, scotch drinking, hedonistic Alpha in a whole new light.
"We married soon after and immediately he tried to get me pregnant. God, I wanted a baby so badly with Spencer."
Scotty asked Sam, "Are you sure you want to hear the rest of this?"
The boy gave a solemn nod, "I'm sure."
"I-I had a miscarriage. For an Omega that's almost unheard of, the fertility doctor felt it was from the back alley abortions Freddie forced on me. The doctor didn't say it was impossible but he wasn't very hopeful."
Scotty touched his nearly five months worth of baby belly, "I've never made it this far before…Dr. Saito says everything is progressing normally."
Dean had his own prenatal visit with the doctor and trusted her input, "I like Dr. Saito; I think she's right Scotty. That other doctor didn't know what he was talking about."
Sam had pulled up the Omega's shirt just over his belly and rubbed gently with his hands, "The baby will be ok, I can feel it." Just then the baby shifted and Scotty let out a little noise of surprise.
"See I told you!"
Dean added, "Sammy can sense things. He's got sort of a gift."
Sam didn't like talking about his gift but in this case he didn't mind if it put Scotty's mind at ease.
The motherly Omega traced little circles over his stretched skin and had the softest smile on his face. There wasn't a better word to describe Scotty except glowing. "This one took then...I'll have a baby and this time I can keep it."
Sam felt the a strange urge to start kissing bellies but stopped himself by hopping out of bed and yelling, "Pee break!"
They could have gone their separate ways after the pee break but all three gravitated back to the big comfy bed each armed with snacks and drinks. Dean brought in one of his CDs Spencer had gotten him for Christmas. It was "The Best of Creedence Clearwater Revival".
…
Castiel and Spencer got home at almost the same time. When Spencer pulled his car up next to the little lime green Fiesta he found his son covering up something in the hatchback.
The first thing Spencer did when he exited his Mercedes was loosen his tie when what he really wanted to do was burn it then run away to a tropical paradise. He thought it over and realized the entire family would have to go because otherwise he'd end up crazy with worry. It would still be paradise just a whole lot noisier and chaotic.
"Hey son whatcha doing?"
Cas looked back over his shoulder at his dad, "Hiding honeymoon surprises from Dean."
"Sex toys…stripper pole…a case of whip topping? I could loan you some costumes."
Castiel straightened up and faced his father, "Jesus, what is wrong with you dad?!"
Satisfied he got his son's feathers ruffled to his liking, Spencer gave Castiel a gummy smile, "How did I raise such a prude…well I did what I could."
"How would I fit a stripper pole in a hatch back?"
"Ahhh you got me there son!"
…
Spencer and Castiel noticed there was no delicious smell of food coming from the kitchen and the only sound was faint music coming from somewhere in the house. They followed the sound to Spencer and Scotty's bedroom and when father and son opened the door what they found was a surprise.
CCR was playing loud and proud, Scotty and Dean were singing at the top of their lungs and Sam was spraying Easy Cheese directly into his mouth with one hand and texting Alfie with the other.
The two Alphas looked at one another then back to their little family and joined right in.
Someone told me long ago there's a calm before the storm
I know, it's been comin' for some time
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day
I know, shinin' down like water
Dean climbed on his mate's lap happy to have his Alpha home. Dean was still confused, scared as hell and wasn't sure what or who he was but for just a moment it didn't matter.
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
Sam sat at Castiel's feet, reached up and took his brother's hand. They would get through all that was coming just like they always did, together. Brother to brother but this time with family to support them.
Yesterday and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard
I know, been that way for all my time
'Til forever, on it goes through the circle, fast and slow
I know, it can't stop, I wonder
Scotty leaned on Spencer just like always but this time there was singing. The painful memories dissipated because the man that took away the nightmares was there at his side.
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
Spencer held his lucky charm Omega. He knew Scotty was more than he ever deserved and thanked the Universe everyday for seeing fit to drop an angel in his path.
