Alright guys, you know by now what to expect from me. This is a yaoi(Gay) story between Naruto and Sasuke. It is set in an Omegaverse. Please enjoy. Also, this story will have sex scenes in it so if you're UNDERAGED GET LOST. (Sorry for the new alerts. I was rereading and doing some corrections before making the new chapter.)
It was another boring day at the shop for Naruto. He was 22 and ran a clothes store where he made specially requested items and did the usual alterations. He took pride in his work. The clothes he made were gorgeous and hand stitched in most cases. His customers were a mixture of genders ranging from male and female and down through the actual gender classes. There were three classifications for the male and female sexes: Alpha, Beta, and Omega.
Alphas were immediately recognizable. They exuded power and were always either beautiful or handsome. The Alphas are the number one class sought after by everyone. The Beta class would be considered the middle class. They are typically easy going, work middle class jobs, and usually marry other Betas. The Beta class is the most predominant one in that it's population is larger than either the Alpha or Omega classes combined.
The Omega class was considered to be the most valuable next to the Alpha class. The reason it is considered valuable, they are the only class that can mate and give birth to an Alpha's child besides another Alpha. If an Alpha mated a Beta and got them pregnant, the Beta would either miscarry or die. Their bodies are not able to withstand the strain of an Alpha's baby as the baby's development completely drains a Beta's body of all nutrients. The Omegas on the other hand are able to absorb the needed nutrition through their mates fluids. The down side of being an Omega? The Heat. It can come on unexpectedly. The Heat renders an Omega powerless and makes them vulnerable.
When a Heat comes on, the Omega has to either find an Alpha to satisfy them, or they have to stay locked in their homes. The pheromones that are released from the Omega are powerful and will attract all nearby Alphas. That is when it gets truly dangerous for the Omega. The Alphas will attempt to mate the Omega, whether the Omega wants it or not. Thankfully, a medicine was developed for the Omegas that help to suppress their Heats and control the pheromone that all unmated Omegas release.
In Naruto's case, he was an Omega. He managed to hide it from everyone, including his best friend Sasuke. Everyone assumed that Naruto was an Alpha, because unlike most Omegas, he wasn't slender or particularly girly looking. He worked hard to gain muscle. The Ramen he ate was so he could carbo load in order to bulk up. He was in excellent form, six pack abs, sturdy biceps, strong back, wide shoulders, he even had the Adonis lines on his hips. All of this was a characteristic of an Alpha. Sasuke was built the same way. He actually was an Alpha though. Naruto worked out three times a week to maintain his muscle tone. His body was as built as it was going to get. His Omega genetics wouldn't allow any more gain.
Another thing that allowed him to hide his Omega status was the medication he took to suppress the pheromones his body constantly produced. He may have been a grown man but, he had never had a regular heat. They were sporadic and hard to predict. Naruto usually only had one per year, if that. Sometimes it would be as long as three years before he had one. Doctors had run tests and assured him that his heat cycle should be smoothing out and becoming more routine now that he was surrounded by Alphas at his work. He was constantly surrounded by attractive Alphas. Naruto just didn't feel drawn to them.
Naruto sighed and sat down in a plush chair his customers normally waited in. It was a slow day for the shop. Normally he was so busy he didn't even get to take a break to eat. It couldn't be helped though, he was in his slow period as it was just after Christmas. The orders would start pouring in again in a week or so. The bell over the door of his shop rang as it opened and Naruto immediately stood up and plastered on his signature smile.
"Welcome to Nine Tails, is there anything-?" Naruto trailed off his greeting when he noticed that it was Sasuke. "Oh, it's just you, Sasuke."
"What kind of greeting is that, Idiot? Do you treat all of your customers this way?" Sasuke complained. The raven haired man looked around the shop and noticed that it was empty of the usual crowds. "What, no business today?"
"Nah, you know it always gets slow right after the holidays end. What's up? You don't normally come to my shop. You usually just send Karin to pick up your orders."
"She out for the next few days. Her Heat came today while she was at the office. What a mess. Turns out she had deliberately stopped taking her meds in an attempt to seduce me and trap me into a relationship." Sasuke visibly shuddered in revulsion. Vivid blue eyes teared up from laughter at his friend's misfortune.
"Sorry. Sorry. I didn't mean to laugh at you, but I couldn't help it. Anyone with eyes could see her sniffing around you. You can be so dense sometimes, Sasuke." Naruto brushed his tears away. "Anyways, I know you're busy so I'll go get your order." The blonde walked into the back room where he kept the finished products. A huff of air told him that Sasuke was right behind him.
"Hey, you're not supposed to be back here asshole." Naruto called over his shoulder. The shine in his eyes told Sasuke that he wasn't being serious.
"I'll go where I want, Idiot." Sasuke smirked just to irritate the blonde. He loved goading him into a fit. It excited him when the blonde's face would flush red and his blue eyes would almost visibly arch with electricity. To Sasuke's surprise, Naruto didn't rise to the bait. Instead he laughed and kept gathering his order, neatly folding and placing the garments into bags for Sasuke.
"I'm sure you will, Sasuke. Alpha that you are, there aren't many people who can or will tell you no. Well, besides Itachi and Kurama. Our elder brothers are something else." Naruto finished bagging Sasuke's order as he spoke and turned around.
"Tch, that they are. Still, they ended up making a great couple. My dad is still mad since that means he won't be getting any grandkids any time soon." The raven haired man gave a put upon sigh and grabbed his bags from the blonde. "Anyways, I have to get back to work. See ya later, Idiot."
"Yeah, yeah, asshole. Get going or you'll be late ya know." Naruto followed his friend back into the front of the store and waved as he walked out. The grin slowly faded as he watched the man walk away. It was his lot in life he guessed, to be attracted to his best friend but never to tell him how he really felt. Sasuke was about as straight as they came. If he ever actually returned his affections, Naruto was sure he would have to have died and gone to heaven.
~sometime later~
Naruto sighed as he turned off the lights in his shop and walked out, locking the door behind him. It had been a long day for him. For some reason, he was feeling lightheaded. "Maybe i just need some food and sleep." He commented to himself. He hadn't really been eating or sleeping these passed couple of days. Not since Sasuke had last come to see him at the shop. He felt "off" so to speak.
He mounted the stairs outside his shop that led to his apartment. One of these days he would have the money to remodel and put an interior entrance to his place in the shop. Naruto unlocked the door to his place and walked inside, locking it back up behind him. He inhaled deeply and stilled. His pheromones were wafting through the air. His Omega pheromones that were supposed to be blocked by the suppressants he was taking. This wasn't good. Not at all. If he didn't act quickly, every Alpha in a five mile radius would be on his doorstep. Omegas like him were sought after intensely.
The blonde rushed through his apartment to his bathroom and opened his medicine cabinet. Blue eyes opened wide in panic as he grabbed the empty bottle of medicine. He didn't remember taking the last of them but he had to have. Frantically he tore through his apartment into the bedroom and dropped to his knees beside his bed to check the drawer of his night stand.
The sight of the blue and pink pills he kept in his emergency stash sent a wave of relief through his muscular body. On that wave of relief was the strong scent of his Heat. It had been a year since his last one, and he spent that one locked in his bathroom as far away from any windows or doors as he could. With shaking hands Naruto opened the bottle of pills and dry swallowed three. He could not afford for anyone to realize he wasn't an Alpha. His breath was coming out in harsh pants at the point.
Shakily, Naruto stood and walked back into his bathroom. He looked in the mirror at himself, his scarred cheeks were flushed red and his blue eyes were almost electric in their intensity. He stripped naked and started the water to his shower. He needed to wash off his Omega smell immediately. The water took a minute to warm up and in that time Naruto studied his reflection. His body was aroused, standing at attention due to his heat. It was almost painful, but thankfully he had taken the medicine in the nick of time.
Climbing in to the hot spray, he grabbed the special body wash he kept just for things like this. It was a formula he had come up with and it would completely mask the scent of his heat for twelve hours at a time. He had made it after a close call when he was eight. His Heat had come early and he had been walking home from school. His parents had died the year before, but he had no other relatives so he had ended up being a ward of the state of Konoha. The Hokage (mayor) had given him an apartment to stay in by himself. On his way there, a group of Alphas had caught his scent.
Naruto rubbed his cheeks, his fingers gliding over the texture of his scars. He had three on each cheek. He had refused to submit to the Alphas that had cornered him. In retaliation, they had cut his cheeks, trying to terrify him into letting them have their way. He had fought back, biting, kicking, scratching, and punching everyone who came near him. The noise had attracted the attention of a young red headed teen walking by the alley, making him investigate. The smell alone alerted him to the state that Naruto had been in.
Kurama had been his savior that day. The red head had unleashed holy hell on the three Alphas attempting to rape him, curb stomping them into the ground. After he had knocked the last one out, he had turned piercing red eyes Naruto's way. The blonde had been bleeding from the six cuts on his face, his clothes torn, crouched in a corner with his teeth bared and hissing at him. His finger nails had been claws at that point, ready to shred anyone that approached him.
As an Omega, his instincts had come to the fore front to help protect him, going into an almost feral state. Kurama had simply crouched in front of him and made an almost purring noise at the blonde. With the noise came his scent, the smell of a fellow Omega. Naruto had stopped hissing at the teen and dropped his hands, the nails slowly receding back to normal as he inhaled the scent of his rescuer.
Unfortunately, it wouldn't be the last time the red head had to come to his rescue. It happened until he turned twelve, when he finally perfected the body wash. Kurama had helped him market it to the other Omegas who needed to hide their genders. Naruto rested his head against the cool tiles of his shower after rinsing off, and grasped his member in a calloused palm. With tight, short pulls he quickly got himself off so that his erection would calm down. He cleaned up his mess and turned off the water. Stepping out of the shower, he grabbed the towel off the rod next to him and wrapped it around his hips. He used a smaller towel to dry his dripping locks of hair.
It was at that time that Naruto heard the knocking on his door. He inhaled deeply to check his scent and winced at the lingering scent from his earlier rush. He hopped it wasn't an Alpha on the other side or no amount of scent blocker or medicine would help him. Then again, this was the reason he had insisted on working out and training. He wasn't a scared kid anymore.
He draped the towel he had been using to dry his hair around his neck and opened the door. To his dismay, it was indeed an Alpha. The very one he had been trying so hard to hide his status as an Omega from.
"Sasuke. Why are you here?"
