Cyrus woke up with arms rapped around him. He looked to his side to see a sleeping Jonah. He started freaking out and pushed the boy away from him. Jonah fell to the ground with a hard thud.

"What the hell cy!" Jonah yelled. Cyrus crawled to the corner and hugged his legs again

"Did we...did we mate?!?!" Cyrus panicked. Jonah shook his head giving the boy relief.

Jonah had a guilty expression written in his eyes. Cyrus nervously stood up and felt a piercing pain in his neck

"You...you marked me. Jonah...why would you mark me?" Cyrus questioned.

"I don't know Cy...it was impulse. The only thought going through my head was to...The scent...the sweetness. I wanted it all to myself." Jonah admitted.

Cyrus didn't know how to feel. He's always wanted Jonah to like him back but marking him. "Jonah...you...you..took it away from me." Cyrus said with tears in his eyes.

Jonah looked at Cyrus confused. "Took what away Cy?" Jonah questioned.

"You took my choice away you selfish prick. You marked me because you thought I'd cut you off didn't you. You just want me around so you can..." Jonah cut Cyrus off by grabbing the boy by the arm and pulling him to his chest.

He leaned in and kissed the boy with as much passion as he could muster. He had been wanting to do that since he met Cyrus through Andi. The first thing he noticed when he first saw the boy was his pink lips.

"Cy...I marked you because I'm...I'm in love with you." Jonah admitted.

Meanwhile downstairs...

"There just 15 Leslie. What could they possibly know about love." Jonah's mother retorted.

"This isn't my fault. Your son snuck into my sons window and marked him. Obviously he has feelings for the boy." Cyrus mom rebutted.

"My son isn't some homo." Jonah's father argued.

"Please refrain from using that kind of language in this house." Both of Cyrus's father figures expressed. They both eyed each other and nodded.

Cyrus's mother had enough of Jonah's parents. "Look your son marked my son not the other way around. You know good and well once an omega begins their heat they have no control. Alphas have more control over the situation then omegas do. In fact they have all the control, which means that your son wasn't able to control himself because somewhere in the back of his mind he wanted to mark him. He wanted to claim the boy as his." Cyrus's mother huffed.

Jonah's mother knew deep down that Jonah loved Cyrus. When they were in middle school that's the only person Jonah would talk about. She turned around and faced her husband.

"John...she's right. If Jonah didn't want to mark Cyrus he wouldn't have. You have to accept that." Jonah's mother expressed.

The man took a deep breath and sighed. "Look...I don't like it. Honestly I'd make Jonah ignore Cyrus if I could. But Cyrus is bound to him. No matter how hard I try Cyrus will continue to chase after Jonah. Every time Cyrus enters his heat Jonah will be called to watch over him. Separating those two will only intensify their cravings for each other to the point that anything I say or do will not be heard." The man sighed.

"What happens when Cyrus goes into heat. If we hadn't stopped them from mating then there would have been a high chance that he'd be pregnant." Cyrus step father noted.

"We just have to take extra steps to make sure that doesn't happen. They have medication and different types of contraception if need be. We can't stop the inevitable from happening but we can stop them from birthing a ch..." cyrus mother stopped speaking as the two boys are descended the stairs.

"Mom...I don't understand why your so worried." Cyrus voiced with annoyance.

The woman sighed and shook her head. "It's just that...well...omegas are meant to have kids...so they aren't the best at thinking about protection when they are in the middle of a heat." Cyrus mother informed.

Jonah gripped Cyrus's hand. "Then it's my job to make sure that we don't make that mistake." Jonah said confidently.

Jonah's dad cleared his throat and Jonah looked at the man and gulped.

"I'm extremely disappointed in you Jonah. I told you about this countless times. Then you go and do it to a boy. I can't even look at you right now." His father spat.

Jonah only smiled at the man not giving a care in the world about what he thought. He understood there was nothing his father could do.

The Next day...

Cyrus still didn't feel comfortable going to school but his parents forced him. Him and Jonah had a conversation before he left last night that included some yelling and tears being shed.

Jonah wanted to hide their relationship and continue to do what he had prior to marking Cyrus. He told Cyrus that he loved him but wasn't ready to come out yet. Cyrus was extremely upset and pushed Jonah out of his house and slammed the door in the boy's face.

When he saw the boy in the hallway Jonah completely ignored him. He even flirted with a couple of girls right in front of Cyrus. Buffy could tell something was going on with her friend because he was quieter the usual and wearing a turtle neck to cover the mark on his neck.

During passing period Buffy pulled down Cyrus 's turtle neck exposing the mark. She gasped at Cyrus and pulled him into an empty classroom.

"Cyrus you're marked? Who? Why?when? Where?" Buffy questioned.

Cyrus looked away. "Jonah came over yesterday...during my heat." Cyrus informed shyly.

Buffy's mouth dropped. "And he marked you...I didn't know Jonah...liked you." Buffy said a little startled.

"Buffy you don't understand. I didn't ask for this. He took it upon himself to mark me. I didn't even get a choice." Cyrus replied.

Buffy eyes read anger. "I'm gonna kill that son of..."

"Buffy! Calm down. I could tell he couldn't help himself. I saw the look in his eyes. He had no control. If my parents didn't stop him we would've...mated." Cyrus explained.

Buffy's eyes practically fall out of their sockets.

"Cyrus I'm so sorry..if I would have known you were gonna have your heat I would have stopped him from coming over." Buffy apologized and hugged the boy.

They let go of each other and the bell rung signaling for class.

Cyrus shared P.E. with Jonah and TJ. Everyday they'd pick all the Alphas out of the bunch of kids during team sports and today was basketball.

In the locker room Cyrus put a bandaid he over his mark and preceded to change. He could tell watchful eyes viewed his every movement as he changed his clothes.

When an Alpha imprinted on an Omega there's a low degree of pheromones that tell the Alpha we're exactly the omega is and Jonah's eyes were glued to Cyrus. Cyrus peered at Jonah and couldn't help but blush. He was furious with Jonah but the way Jonah looked at him made him feel all gooey inside.

They walked into the gym and the coach blew his whistle indicating for Everyone to pick teams. Cyrus was picked last out of the bunch and sighed. He hated P.E. for the simple fact that Alphas always had an advantage.

Halfway through the game Cyrus was subbed in and was passed the ball. He dribbled up the court the best he could and shot the ball. TJ rushed over and blocked the shot while knocking Cyrus over on to his butt.

"Dude you're complete garbage at basketball...you'd think you were an omega or something." TJ dissed.

Cyrus looked at the floor trying to stop himself from crying.

TJ picked up on the boys emotions and started laughing. "Jonah can you believe this...I think he is an omega. He's about to cry." TJ commented.

Jonah looked at Cyrus and he could feel himself becoming angry at the fact that TJ was messing with his Omega. Natural instinct started to take hold of Jonah and he started growling.

"Dude is someone having their heat or something? Your growling." TJ asked.

Jonah was trying his best to control himself. He didn't want to expose the fact that he had marked Cyrus.

Before Jonah could react in any kind of way Cyrus ran. He was gone in an instant leaving Jonah feeling horrible.
