The second part of the Omegaverse AU follows up where we left off~

Omegaverse Alternate U- in which SubKam is given a lesser traumatic romance history. Subaru holds his role as an Onmyouji while being hurt and betrayed by his murderous ex…but in this universe I have it, Hokuto is willing to sacrifice herself for her brother, but by a miracle comes out of it alive, after being in a comatose state (for some time) because that feels very CLAMPy to me~ and to give Subaru a sense of hope beyond the trauma. I also love the idea of Hokuto being the #1 supporter of these two!~


Waking Up Beside You

Morning sunlight drapes itself through the small cracks in the blinds.

Kamui stirs, curling his hand to a crescent shape to shield part of his face. Glossy eyes flutter at ease, half opened to the world.

"Hmm," Kamui hums a little groggily to himself. He can't fight the faint curling of his lips. This has to be the best night's sleep he's gotten in a long while….

That wonderful warmth seeping into his core made it ridiculous to even consider getting up. Tight protective arms cradle Kamui from behind hands lying below his chest and at his abdomen. Loving hands warm his center, his center of gravity keeps holding him tight keeping him safe and at ease

"Oh, right…" It clicks in Kamui's head, and images from yesterday come by in a blur. We slept together. Red burns up to his ears at the thought and almost overwhelming by how right it feels. He could count the number of times he and Subaru fell asleep together on one hand.

'It never feels enough…' Kamui reflects longingly.

Subaru is always very respectful and he loves his boyfriend for being so considerate…But these mornings together were sadly limited until they progressed further in their relationship.

The idea of waking up every day next to Subaru, like this….made Kamui purr with delight. Very audible purrs and sighs expel, calming his body to a state of serenity, while his body emits a tender scent blanketing their room.

Kamui holds the hand over his stomach, feeling his breathing, rising and feeling through his love's hand.

Subaru is so very sweet and gentlemanly. Never pressuring Kamui to do anything, keeping a slow pace for their relationship. Which was fine… "simply" being with Subaru made him happy.

Kamui's soft violet eyes open fully to glance around the scenery. Everything is so clean and spacious, and few things are beyond the necessities of furniture namely: a bed, nightstand, dresser, and small sofa in the corner (of a colorful sort seeming more of his twin sister's style than anything). Either way, Kamui knew this definitely not his own room, yet it still feels so much like home.

A curl curved over his lips as he fixated on a framed photo on the nightstand. He and Subaru cuddled up next to each other, cheeks lightly flushed from the cold, and close proximity. The newly found couple stood in front of a colorful amusement park, one of their first dates…Subaru never said he had time to go growing up….Kamui had to remedy that.

For Subaru to choose a photo of themselves together…as one of the few decorations in his room, feels entirely special.

It's a wonderful feeling to wake up like this, but there's a feeling he's forgetting something very crucial….

Then the thought occurs, and Kamui's cheeks burn with a deep blush of bright pink. He feels heat fuming out his ears, hanging his head in shame. He feels the effects of his body's condition, lower and lower.

Subaru's chest is incredibly warm, lying flush against his back, body heat making him want to give in to anything and everything his alpha asks. His boyfriend's pelvic region lines up all too perfectly, pressed into Kamui's backside, between the thin fabric covering soft cheeks. Maybe he should be more concerned about how they stayed asleep like this so easily, but he's more concerned now with his own reactions.

Kamui's nose twitches, sniffing at the changing air about them. A strong, secure scent is so unique to Subaru. He inhales deeply, sighing pleasantly despite himself.

He tilts his head back enough to not wake his beloved. Violet-blue orbs, fixate, lighting up at the sight of his boyfriend's sleepy face.

So relaxed, at peace, with that rare tiny smile he holds only when he's with Kamui. He leans his head back further, letting it fall against a fluttering chest.

'You always work too hard…I'm glad to see you like this.' Kamui thinks, while a little flushed from the day's events, the natural cozy atmosphere dissolves worries.

"Mnng…" Kamui whines far too loudly, slapping a hand over his lips. He feels a roll of hips, a very solid organ pressing deeper into Kamui's ass, stirring in that cleft area.

And oh. That was definitely from his beloved. His already blushing face paints 100 deeper shades of red. To blush should be his only reaction.

Subaru left him in this state nearly constantly anyway….but now he was here. He never so much as touched it…now it was all but grinding into his most sensitive place.

'This part of him is definitely an Alpha….' Kamui thinks, helpless to do more than mewl and purr. His inner omega is thrilled to bits, but his pride and self-consciousness aren't sharing the sentiment. His nerves remind him, this is unexplored territory, making him want to bury himself deep under the sheets, hiding away.

Sensing his distress, even unconscious, soothingly cool sylvan-natured pheromones release into the air, silently telling his omega 'It's alright. I've got you, stay here.'

The overwhelming urge to feel and fall into the moment also pulls through. His vision goes fuzzy. It takes every sense of strength to shift his hips forward, away from the intoxicating friction.

Kamui couldn't pull away too far from the hold on him so incredibly strong. Every inch he moved made him falter, being held even more securely. He clenches his tight entrance, holding back the best he can from releasing a wave of slick juices deep inside.

His traitorous body holds no shame for these actions, despite his mind screaming otherwise. No, his pheromones solely want to come out, coax his beloved alpha, his perfect Subaru into drowning in that scent, making him whole and-

Kamui shakes his head hard. 'No, no no. Not yet. Not yet.' It wouldn't be fair to Subaru. They needed to talk this out first. Be in the right state of mind, deciding exactly how they'd spend his heat.

'Subaru deserves to know I want him for him, not just because of my hormones…'

The desire was always there in the relationship….this feeling inside gave him that extra push.

Kamui bites his lips and holds strong hopes his boyfriend will be his heat partner. Not just for this first time…but his eternally. He was getting ahead of himself, but…still, he held such hope.

'For now, I need to focus on us…make sure it's something Subaru actually wants…and doesn't feel indebted to.' Kamui reminds himself. His love is always considerate of his needs.

They still had yet to reach full intimacy. Both, being with only one other lover before, and facing the harsh sting of betrayal and heartache, had a lot to relate to and confide in.

It wasn't the first time for either of them. But it felt all the same, something new and unique to be shared together. Their first time together…and with hope, their first heat and possibly put together. Dampness continues to soak and stain what's left dry of Kamui's lower half.

'It's a natural thing for an Alpha to go into…calm down…' Kamui reprimands himself frowning at the throbbing between his thighs. He brushes his legs together, holding them tight, biting on his lip.

But still, he can't help but think: What would Subaru be like?

His boyfriend was already the perfect partner, mate…and adding on the natural hormones and passion going into a rut…. would be a new side of Subaru. One perhaps untamed…no longer holding back, no longer so selfless.

Kamui's teeth shift horizontally along his lower lip. 'It would be way too good….'

The newly found omega can't help but think about it. Knowing he'd be willing to surrender to his lover's every want in a matter of seconds.

But….first things first…they needed to be sure. They were on the same page.

'I did, kind of, spring this on him…' Kamui worries his actions were a bit selfish. Slightly oblivious to his lover's desires, immense pleasure at his sudden presentation, and a rather pleasant surprise.

As soon as his beloved gets up he has to talk this out and….

"Oh…" Kamui's mind goes into a daze. Lost in the naughty fantasies, while his lover slept soundly…his body had other plans. A large pool of slickness fell between his thighs, bleeding through his clothes. Worst off staining not only his clothes…but his lover's own, being pressed so close.

'Oh my god….' The urge to bury himself under the covers, smother himself into the pillow, takes hadn't so much as laid a finger on Subaru's hardness…And here his body went a hundred steps ahead of that.

Leaving his liquid scent upon his love's private region. Essentially, omega hormones screaming, pleading- "Please, mate with me!'

The notion of brushing one's slick over an Alpha's cock was a definite sign of seduction, played out in countless BL mangas and novels…such a fantasy.

Kamui assumed it was but a fantasy he's read about, nothing he'd be experiencing firsthand.

Here his body was doing this all on its own. Assuming he was a beta…it was to remain a fantasy. It was easier that way… He'd never expect he'd be playing this role.

Kamui always had a thing for alphas in those but he never thought he'd be, that omega, this reactive side going haywire.

He looked down weary, seeing the sheets stained with his overflowing slick.

'Now I made a mess of his clothes and bed…'

Just what he didn't need first thing in the morning! But there was no getting out of it, Subaru held him in such a secure, tightened hold.

Kamui could only wait for his lover to rise, see their predicament…and maybe he could explain it off to intense hormones? A vivid dream? Not his own very conscious fantasies first thing in the morning….

His eyes shut tightly, lips pursing tight as though awaiting his life's sentence.

When precious emerald orbs fluttered open, they brightened, seeing Kamui still snuggled up in his arms so tight. His gaze began to drift further, body and clothes feeling exceptionally tight…and the scent between them.

Gaze burning down, Kamui felt a sense of dread. He assumed those beautiful eyes were locked on to the absolute mess Kamui had made of his bed…

Kamui had prepared for a strong reaction. He felt a pang in his chest as Subaru's arms loosened and he slipped back several inches. It was necessary but…that warmth…being gone made him ache.

Subaru frowns, gaze falling on himself. He sees the state of his body…when he meant to only cuddle Kamui close…he became like this.

"I am so very sorry!" Subaru exclaims his apology, sitting up as properly as one can manage in this situation. Bowing his head, eyes water with guilt. "I…we were only going to sleep here…and I-I…became like this."

Kamuo expected a lot of reactions to follow. What he didn't expect was Subaru…To blame himself. His eyelashes fluttered open in surprise, blinking several times.

'Well, he is my Subaru …' Thoughts slip by fondly. His Subaru was kinder and more considerate beyond anyone he's ever known. There's no way he couldn't have noticed the mess, the scent staining his most private area.

"I'm sorry…I…if I had known I'd react like this of course I'd give you your space I don't want you to be uncomfortable and I never would put you in a situation where-" His worries were cut off by a finger to his lips.

Kamui rolled over to face his beloved, and shook his head, smiling fondly. "It's fine. I don't mind it." Subaru's eyes widen at the bold admittance. The younger male doesn't deny anything, but shifts, averting his gaze he mumbles quickly. "If anything I'm the one who should apologize …"

"You? There's nothing for you to be sorry for…I'm the one-" Subaru's eyes swept over the scene, the stain on his clothes, and the sweet-smelling liquid, pooling on the sheets between them.

'Oh, no…' Kamui wines. His love has definitely noticed it now.

Flushing a deep cherry red, Subaru clears his throat. Then sincerely he leans back down in the bed, cupping Kamui's cheek.

"It's nothing to apologize for," Subaru professes sincerely, emerald orbs glimmering. His heart is full of sincerity. So compassionate and considerate to others, 1000-fold to those he loved dearly, but so harsh on himself...that was his Subaru.

Kamui's nerves calm, his scent becoming more controlled. Beautiful emerald eyes avert slightly at the next few words. "It's…a natural reaction." His lips quiver, nerves settling all over.

"Subaru? I…" Kamui stops, unsure how to remedy this. He only offers a weak, "I'll clean everything up for you so please don-mmmnn…"

Calming lips seal over his own, stealing any words to follow. Kamui closes his eyes, dreamily falling into that sweet, slow kiss. Soft pairs of lips merely indulging, brushing, and just the right amount of pressure.

The older lover breaks the kiss, following with familiar words. "I don't mind," Subaru ensures, voice a bit deeper, husky from sleep or…Kamui can't be sure, knowing he'll react again twice as hard if he thinks deeper.

Caring, so considerate he peppers kisses on Kamui's forehead. "I'll go start a bath, and take care of the sheets. You brought a change of clothes, right?"

"Bath? Together?" Kamui blinked, heart, surging, in perfect harmony with his mind and body.

"I…didn't mean…" Subaru stammers, and unfortunately, turns his gaze away, reddening. He calms himself fairly easily, outwardly enough, despite his throbbing lips curling at the perplexed, sparkling eyes gazing up at him "I…it's not like I wouldn't love to but I couldn't just…if it's with you."

"What do you mean?" Kamui's lips turned to a slight pout. His beloved doesn't refrain from kissing that pout away into a melting smile.

"If I were to have you that close to me…so beautiful and exposed…I don't know if I could resist… I'd take you on the spot" Subaru explains, sounding horrified as his own leaked thoughts. Kamui burns 1000 shades of pink and red, feeling steam coming from his ears. "I'd want to I mean…" he weakly amended subconsciously, licking at his lips.

Kamui feels his heart squeeze near painfully. His lower half, squeezed and tightened in addition to the natural slick, seeping from his body, an enchanting sweet scent, leaving his beloved to stiffen beside him.

'Is that such a bad thing?' Kamui wants to scream to the high heavens but knows his love wants this first time to be entirely special, and romantic. He…just really wanted that first time…asap.

"I mean I'd want to do….ah no it's like…we wouldn't even get to the purpose of a shower before we…no it's just not a good idea now." Subaru shakes his head rapidly, excuse after explanation pouring out never feeling adequate. Exhaling slowly he finalizes with a slow breath.

Kamui sits up slightly, feeling the dripping sensation between his legs as he does so. Crossing and uncrossing his legs releases a hyper-sweet scent. As a result, Subaru's eyes tint a bit darker, swallowing hard.

Not losing resolve, Kamui grasps Subaru's slightly trembling hand. His eyebrows furrow, feeling his lover's nerves. "Subaru…As long as I'm with you, I'll be fine."

Subarus's glossy eyes raise dramatically at the vague admittance. Heat pools in the center of the stomach he feels a tug on his heart and lower extremities.

"But…if you want to talk things out first…maybe a shower isn't such a bad idea," Kamui relents with respect to his boyfriend. Clearly, this wasn't how he pictured their first intimate moments to be. "I'll help with the cleanup though and a bath…"

Subaru shakes his head, facial features loosening and relaxing. "No, I want to do this much."

He professes guilt evident as though getting an erection, while Kamui was doing God knows what, in his sleep, was somehow anything but a normal reaction.

"I'll start a bath for you, and take care of the bedding," Subaru begins again, this time with more certainty. He squeezes the hand on his own and gradually sits up.

Kamui's eyes bulge as he gets a much clearer view of his boyfriend. Subaru's usually prim and proper attire was completely ruined, drenched and stretched, and strained by his aching need.

Catching a glimpse of that soft white and clear liquid all over Subaru's lower body, makes Kamui shrink. He desperately wants to voice an apology and bury himself deep under the covers hiding away until this ordeal falls through.

Subaru misses his beloved's bashful actions, already making a b-line for their bathroom. for the best, seeing any more of his boyfriend in such a shy, needy state, would make him lose what little remains of his self-control, wanting Kamui more. and more…

He only places judgment on himself. Reacting so easily, clearly unable to keep himself in check with Kamui this close by. And his preheat is already this effective…

They needed to clear the air. If Kamui didn't want a partner during his first heat then…Subaru releases a painful breath. He winces, his eyes growing unusually watery….a pain spiraling through his system. Still, he would naturally accept that. And refrain from sharing a bed…which…

"Nnnn," Subaru groans, clutching his chest. An unbearable ache surfaces at the thought. Even now, despite his words and resolve, his heart and overwhelming alpha hormones are pulling him to climb back into bed with Kamui and hold him impossibly close again.

Subaru bites harshly at his lip, breaking a temporary spell of lust and need. He turns the knob on the bathtub and quickly grabs a fluffy white robe and a set of towels.

Beautiful violet-blue eyes are on him as soon as he re-enters the room. Kamui hasn't moved an inch, looking particularly vulnerable, legs pressed in tight, knees to his chest.

"I…." Subaru swallows harshly, seeing the beautiful hues of red paint on Kamui's cheek. Emerald orbs avert to the carpet to gain clarity. "I've started your bath." He manages to say.

Kamui nods, swiftly and cutely. Subaru's mind supplies, everything his love does registers as being impossibly cute or beautiful.

"Thank you," Kamui murmurs, seeing his beloved place a clean towel upon the petite velvety loveseat against the corner of the room.

"Su-" Kamui yelps upon feeling his Alpha's arms surround him, under his knees and back. Lifted into the air he naturally wraps his arms around his boyfriend's shoulders, feeling incredibly safe.

Subaru laughs softly at the reaction, heart humming. He places Kamui down gently, as the most priceless treasure he could ever hope to find in this life.

"I'll take care of things here," Subru reminds him, the tone so reassuring, trustworthy. "You can start your shower when you are ready.

Kamui nods at this, unable to keep his gaze up when he notices Subaru stripping their bed.

The overwhelming smell of their scents mixing together and a completely soaked mess of sheets is unbearable to look at for too long.

Kamui misses the sight of his Alpha's calm and earnest display of affection. Not a speck of displeasure courses through his eyes. Only a glossy hue of fondness and desire sweeps through his emerald orbs, breathing in their scents, blending perfectly together.

With all this coming naturally from Kamui, he could never appear remotely displeased. Unfortunately, he never extended that kindness and acceptance toward himself.

Unable to linger too long, Kamui quietly wraps the towel around his stained clothes and enters the bathroom.


Need

In the lavish and sparkling clean bathroom, Kamui tiptoes upon the cool marble tile, breathing in the scent of the soothing aroma of cherry blossom bath salts. It doesn't mask their scents completely, but Kamui is glad about that. The idea of it being gone entirely is…quite saddening.

The natural scents of a flowering forest, melded perfectly with Kamui's lavender aroma, mixing together into one.

Soft violet-blue eyes blink happily, slowly, like a kitten gazing up at its favorite person, noting the scent carrying faintly from the bedroom to the bath. He proceeds to enter the shower stall, letting steam envelop him all around.

Hearing the calming shushes of the bathtub filling further, sets him at ease. His shoulders roll back and loosen up. Kamui gradually indulges in the warm droplets falling over him, as he grasps a washcloth set aside for him.

His lips curl along with the tips of his toes, imagining his sweet boyfriend setting this out for him. While he gives a full effort to unwind and lather his body clean, that lingering desire stays there. He can feel his lower body twitching from front to back, unable to soften despite his best efforts.

'There's not much else I can do then…' Kamui reasons, bringing his clothed hand over his aroused nether regions. His teeth meet his bottom lip, barely suppressing a sweet trembling cry.

'Subaru. Subaru. Subaru.,' It's all his mind seems to recognize. He wraps his right hand around his straining dick, releasing some tension, as he clamps down tighter on it.

He can't be soothed simply by a light touch, his mind raising a million miles a minute. He closes his eyes, easily envisioning Subaru stepping into the stall behind him. Pulling the smaller male into his arms, Kamui's wrapped into an embrace from behind. Countless sweet whispers to more heated words breath into Kamui's ear making it redden.

Searing hot lips place kisses upon a sensitive neckline, sucking, biting, and soothing new marks to ensure Kamui had been truly claimed. Lips tease right over the spot he needs most, to nip over the hypersensitive scent gland and leave a final, lasting mating mark in its wake.

Kamui licks at his lips, panting at the scene, envisioning his precious boyfriend as he wraps his long sleek fingers around him. Phantom hands are felt holding tightly and pumping up and down the younger man's length to completion.

Skillfully, those fingers move right where they need to, teasing at the pearls of white dripping from the reddened tip.

"You're already this aroused, so wet for me," Subaru praises, all too erotic indulgences, quite pleased, while he thumbs over the slip, again and again.

"Ahhnn," Kamui's head falls back. Those phantom hands make a mess of him at the mere idea of Subaru owning them. "It-it not my f-fault…" he whines weakly, knowing it's hopeless to deny the obvious before him.

'Subaru' chuckles, breath hot and needy right in his lover's ear. "My sweet omega~ it's not enough is it?"

Hot tears stream from beautiful orbs of violet. Kamui nods, while sobbing, covering his mouth to suppress the desperation in his actions. 'It's not enough…not just the front.' It would never be enough until Subaru made him complete.

As though perfectly on cue to meet his alpha's expectations, his sensitive entrance begins releasing an erotic essence down his legs. His fantasized partner hums with deep satisfaction.

Enamored lips curl as they praise Kamui, to the point where his knees go weak. "You're so beautiful, already dripping and ready for me."

Lost to this sensation the younger male only nods feverishly. His right hand begins to slip behind him, imagining it's really Subaru who is spreading his cheeks, fingers searching for that tender little entrance.

"AH-" Kamui hurriedly has to place the hand in front of him up to his lips, tasting himself and barely cutting off a mindless scream. It's the only way to suppress the screams, at how sensitive he's become. His two fingers slip in easily, sliding deep inside his natural lubrication, and 'Oh.' It's so easy to spread them out, stretching himself in a way that feels better than ever before. Naturally, he adds a third finger, then a fourth, greedily imagining they'll lead to something even thicker, deeper, and hotter at a moment's notice.

While in his fantasy Subaru is holding him up and steady, his reality leaves him to have to choose one area of concentration

A part of Subaru he had yet to see….he couldn't imagine just how perfect he'd be. His boyfriend likely going into his own rut, responding to his desires. Their desires…because maybe they were truly a fated pair.

Fingers thrust swiftly in and out of Kamui's entrance, pushing into that hor bundle of nerves with every ounce of strength he has left.

His fingers tape over his lips suppressing the whines, knowing it would feel infinitely better to have the real Subaru here.

His body goes weak as he closes his eyes tightly again, imagining his boyfriend lining up his erection to his leaking hole. In one swift motion, he slides fully inside, thrusting into Kamui's sweet spot, making him release upon entrance.

Or the reality...that first thought of Subaru in him, has him spilling over the edge, crying as he does so harshly. Endless streams of white pour out of Kamui, while his entrance pours wave after wave of slick, finally feeling to come to ease.

So terribly embarrassing….but he can just imagine the sweet words of praise, and assurances this was far from the last time.

Sobbing, Kamui holds his hand tighter over his moaning lips. He rides through the waves of pleasure that fantasy brings until reaching a final sense of calm.

Embarrassing to know he had to do so…. Kamui feels his body relaxing. The heat is not so suffocating and the body calms down having met a release.

All that's left to do is to rinse away the evidence of his earlier actions, cleaning himself throughout now. He props himself up on the shower wall, giving a moment to get the feeling back in his legs, enough strength to reach the bathtub.

He collapses into the warm water instantly. His body is finally in a state of rest and recovery. His mind is finally clear, and he's certainly more than ever of what he wants.

'It's a matter of telling Subaru….' He can feel his ears start to steam at the notion. Asking Subaru to be his, one and only mate, his heat partner. He buries half his face under the water, his cheeks blossoming to deep pink as he falls lightly heated from steam. He blows bubbles up to the surface working on cooling himself down enough to leave.


Call

By the time Kamui is finishing up, Subaru had already cleaned their sheets, and blankets and remade their bed, pillows propped and perfectly fluffed. Keeping busy feels like the sole solution.

He forced himself to enter the empty office room next door. Hearing the shrill cries of what he presumed to be the start of his name, left him frozen in place by the door.

Subaru felt everything aching inside, despite changing from his earlier clothes he felt himself drowning in his omega's essence. His Kamui. His omega. Because he couldn't think any other way. The thought of another touching, holding, or kissing Kamui was infuriating, his eyes glaring daggers at the imagined threats.

His hormones and instincts made him miss what was clear in front of him. And just how desperately Kamui needs him, and no one else.

Subaru brings himself into the adjacent room, taking a meditative stance, çooling himself enough to semi-function. The necessities needed to be taken care of, if he were to be out a week, he had to let it be known sooner than later. Just...not in so many words.

Once he's calmed enough to speak evenly…he decides.

While reluctant…Subaru grasps the wireless phone on his desk. He dials a number he's known countless times, before hearing a single ring and then responding.

"Subaru?" A mature yet compassionate woman's voice answers the phone. "I wasn't expecting a call from you, with how busy you've been the past few weeks."

"Right…" Subaru nervously taps on the desk, holding his phone between his chin and shoulder for a moment. "That's kind of what I've been meaning to talk about."

"Oh?" Lady Sumeragi waits for him to continue. Always being a stern yet kind leader and mentor to her grandson. She'd softened considerably after seeing the events unfold and nearly losing both of her precious grandchildren. "What is it?"

"I'm afraid things have come up. I won't be able to accept any clients for the following week….It's quite important and I need the time off."

"Is there anything wrong?"His grandmother showed considerable worry in her voice adding on. "You have been quite overworked…" She laments with a sense of mixed feelings, guilt knowing how draining being the clan leader could be to anyone.

Of course, she remains composed and proper, voice even. She doesn't pry or demand further explanation.

Subaru feels it helpful to disclose at least this much. "It's not quite like that…I need to have some time off, and help care for Kamui."

"Ah, Kamui," Lady Sumeragi felt an instant connection to Kamui. Naturally, she was opposed to Subaru's first love, but Kamui accepted wholeheartedly. Her eyebrows scrunch with deep concern, "Is he unwell?"

"Ah…you could say that…" Subaru squeezes the phone tight in his hand, nerves pulling up. He bites his cheek. "It came up unexpectedly so…the late notice…I'm sorry."

"No need, we have many in the clan who will be happy to handle things to help you." Indeed there were countless onmyouji from novice to experienced elders, who admired their leader's unique gifts, wanting to help him however possible.

Subaru's grandmother voices with deep patience and compassion, regrets fill from pushing her grandson so hard when he was younger. "It sounds like it's necessary."

"Yes…very much so.," Subaru admits, feeling a bit sheepish, as though the reality of the situation would become obvious with a few more words. Still, he lets it slip, hoping it ensures how important this reasoning could be. "Kamui is feeling…a bit unwell, so I want to help him until he's feeling better."

Those words weren't a lie. Kamui had no family time to speak of, and needed and deserved all the love and affection he could get, Subaru happened to be the person for the job.

"Ah, Kamui….You care so deeply for that boy," She voices with a hint of fondness and relief. To know her grandson could feel and brighten once more. "He is feeling unwell, but only for this week?"

Subaru swallows hard. Was he that obvious? Maybe the fact he couldn't stop thinking of Kamui in heat made his current actions and words such a mess...

She begins to put the missing pieces into place. Her grandson needed a full week off, with his romantic partner…who wasn't feeling well…Even if Kamui had come about, openly being a beta,…there was something different, how he presented the few times, Subaru brought him back to Kyoto. Her grandson was incredibly compatible with this young man…

"Ah…" Subaru gulps, he could feel something knowing from the other line. "Yes…just to be safe…I can't leave him on his own feelings as he does…"

"Is that so?" His grandmother pauses, quietly, contemplatively. Her voice softens considerably, seeming quite serene. "Needing this week to care for your precious Kamui."

"G-grandmother!" Subaru sputters hearing her tone go so soft, and fond. "The way you're making it sound is…" He couldn't finish, cheeks flaring up.

"You'll need to be there with him," With deep approval, he can feel her lips curling to a tender smile, from the other end of the line.

Truly, he worried she'd be at least reluctant yet accepting of the request off from work. There were few Onmyouji even close to Subaru"s skill level and being unavailable for some time would be at least an inconvenience.

"Of course, I think you should be there to help him through this," She continues utmost sincerely, her voice serious and raw as she follows up. "Take care of him."

Missing work was one thing, it happened, even with those as invaluable as Subaru. But to deny one's partner and….potentially fated pair would be a grave sin. If her intuition were correct, those two young men were fated to be together.

"I will," Subaru vows, entirely open, not a trace of doubt or hesitation in his voice. "Thank you for understanding. I know it's a bit…last minute."

"Nonsense, That Kamui is special to you, and I know you'd only ask for something like this if it was important."

"Of course," Subaru agrees, bowing his head out of habit, despite just being on the phone. "Thank you. Grandmother. "

"Take good care of your Kamui," She once more insists, seemingly pleased and at peace with her parting words. "As well as yourself." Lady Sumeragi ended the conversation, feeling quite pleased. Her grandson was happy. And if her hunch was correct…This relationship could potentially….bring about a Sumeragi heir in the future. How could she be anything but happy?

"I will do so. Thank you so much, Grandmother, please take care as well." Subaru ends the call on a high note. He was flustered feeling his Grandmother could sense his nerves…and guess exactly what was happening (or could happen if Kamui invites him)….oh well.

She was entirely accepting so he chose to think of it positively.

After that call, there was just one more to make. Only one other person would come by his apartment to check on him.

The hardest to talk to, without giving it all away would be…Hokuto proves without fail to bring out embarrassment. But...support. (he knew his sister rooted him and Kamui more than anyone).

Talking to her again was a miracle on its own. His ex-lover had come so close to ending her life…it was terrifying, he imagined countless partake worlds where Seishirou succeeded.

Yet, despite the pain…Hokuto sacrificed herself in Subaru's place…nearly losing everything…in that comatose state, losing years of her conscious life…she never blamed him. Not even when he couldn't stop loving Seishirou.

Hokuto understood, knew love was not in one's scope of control, and believed everyone deserved to feel love.

If anything she'd smile at the experience, years in the hospital, focusing on the positive, "I got to meet my special person," she would say as though it made up for the time and life taken… She lit up at the mention of a long silver-haired, dream seer. Kakyou….as he remembered, very reserved, emotionally withdrawn…quite opposite to his boisterous older sister but they seemed to fit nicely together. Both had their own expression of compassion and kindness.

She understood him….this conversation in comparison to all they've gone through should be nothing. So he starts dialing an all too familiar number…which happened to be next door's apartment.

Subaru mentally reminds himself to place soundproof spells, and barriers around the apartment…just in case.

"Subaru? Aww~I haven't heard from you in a while!" Hokuto's cheery voice answers on the first ring. She's beaming, but he can hear a sense of confusion. "Wait…Why are you calling when I'm next door?"

"I wasn't sure you'd be home and it's… a bit complicated…" While there was no threat with his elder sister being over, she could tell immediately upon entering the apartment their situation. An Omega in the heat was hard to miss….well Subaru lived a lifetime being unaffected by such scents…before now…but he hadn't discussed with Kamui if he wanted any others to know their predicament. Still, he needed to let his doting sister know, coming over was not the best now.

"Oh….Kay is something wrong?" She sounded all too eager to know more details.

"Not exactly wrong…but I need to take care of some things…" Subaru starts out easily enough.

"Some things?" She paused over the phrasing before shaking her head and giggling. "Kamui?"

"Wh-how did you….?"

"Because I know you Subaru. I am your twin after all. There's nothing or no one else who you'd be this worried about."

"I'm not worried…" Subaru tries to defend, himself weakly because he doesn't even believe his words. "I just…he's not going to be…feeling his best so…I need to focus on him."

"Aw, You love him so much~" Hokuto joyously proclaims with amused giggles. There is no arguing with her, speaking the truth.

After a moment she inquires more seriously, lips curling down. "Is Kamui feeling sick?"

"Kind of…" Subaru holds the phone in a tighter grip, wincing. He felt so exposed, so obvious as to what was truly going on.

"I could at least bring over some healthy meals for you while he's healing up?" She offers so kindly, seeming to find the 'sick' excuse plausible.

"Thank you but it's best if I just take care of things…" Subaru quickly, adds, a tone a bit more protective than planned out.

There's a pause…some deliberation before Hokuto asks, seriously. "...For how long?"

"Kamui will be staying with me here…at least the next week or so…" Subaru relents, not realizing how much he revealed. Or rather how perceptive his sister could be.

"Oooh? Here I thought you lovebirds were just going out for coffee today but instead you both took things further. Is Kamui moving in with you now?~!" Hokuto chirps, all too excitedly.

Subaru sighs, slapping the palm of his hand over his head. How did she come to that conclusion? "That's not what I said…" He patiently continues, hanging his head. "I was saying Kamui isn't feeling well so he'll be staying at my place for about a week…" More or less… This was his first partner beyond Seishirou and the first omega in heat he'd dealt with.

"A week, huh?" She inquires, her tone only growing brighter, more joyous.

"Yes, that's right about that time…"

"Wait-wait-wait. This is Kamui right?"

"Yes…" Subaru breaks out slowly, feeling a sinking feeling in his gut.

"Isn't he…a beta?" She questions, despite sounding quite certain of herself. "That's what you both told me but…"

"I…" Subaru lost his breath, neither denying nor confirming. He could tell it was more obvious towards the latter. Desperately, he tries to turn the conversation to steer anywhere else "That's not what we were talking about!"

"Then why would he…unless he's actually-" The pieces puzzle together, and she's giggling. Subaru winces feeling what's to come next. "Kamui's an omega!" She claims victoriously. "Oh my god! I knew it! I called it the day you two met and stood by it! You two must be fated pairs."

"I…I don't know about all the details. But I never said anything about omegas…or pairs or." Subaru defended weakly, knowing he already lost here. "And something like that would be very personal, very private so I'm not going into details, I just wanted to let you know…I won't be out…"

"I'm not going to tell anyone! I love Kamui! I mean he's going to be my brother-in-law one day!" Hokuto calls out. "Wait…if Kamui is an omega…"

"I didn't say that…" Subaru sighs, wincing at how easily he had been read.

"And going into heat."

"Hokuto…sister, please don't…assume.."

"Am I going to be an Aunt soon?"

Subaru blushed, face on fire, at the accusation. In no way had that been on his mind and it wouldn't be…not any time soon. "No," he retorted quite firmly, "I'm just letting you know I can't be disturbed this week for any reason. I'm told grandmother as well."

"Alright. Alright…I understand." She says despite sounding not anywhere near done. He can feel the Cheshire cat grin spreading on her lips. "I'll make sure you two have your space~ for your honeymoon!"

"Hokuto!" Subaru warns trying to sound as stern as possible, and not like he's burning up at every word. Only when the door opens, does he leave the state, confronting further reality, Kamui wouldn't be in the bathroom forever after all…

"I'll leave you two to it then!" Hokuto beams, all too joyous at her revelations. "Don't worry you will have all the time you need this week. Call me if either of you wants me to drop something off. You'll need to build your energy after all

"I haven't said it's anything like that…dear sister…" Subaru breathes a heavy sigh and hears the bathroom door opening. Kamui steps out curiously looking around the room for his boyfriend. "Kamui is here now so…."

"Aww, tell Kamui hi, I love him and we'll have to cook new recipes together next week!"

"I will…do that…" Subaru expresses, feeling his ears redden, steaming. He enters back to the bedroom, seeing beautifully curious eyes on him.

"Aw well, I love you both! Take care of yourself okay, don't overdo it either of you~"

"Hokuto…" Subaru burns up a deep scarlet red, turning his gaze away from Kamui's oblivious looks. "We'll talk again later, I love you too," He finishes the call, hearing giggles take over before he ends the call.

Those beautiful violet-blue eyes miss his gaze entirely. They peer down as though guilty, and Kamui murmurs a soft apology. "S-sorry It took so long…are things okay?

"They're fine…I was just talking with Grandmother and Hokuto…that I needed time off."

"Oh…" Kamui flushes, seeming to ponder over the explanation. "Do…they know?"

"I..." Subaru begins to confess, his throat feeling dry. "I didn't mention specifics…I know this is all new for you, and personal."

Kamui smiles at this, kissing his beloved's cheek. "Thank you,"

Guilty, Subaru admits. "I am sorry….I didn't say all the details of course…but Hokuto at least seemed to notice something was up…"

Kamui ponders over this for a moment. While pink and flushed, his features stay otherwise calm. He takes a slow, fond breath, assuring. "It's okay, Subaru."

"It….is?" Subaru turns to look his beloved in the eyes, caressing his love's pinkened cheeks.

"We'll, she's family," Kamui states, with compassion. "It's not, something bad…and we'd have to tell her sooner than later."

After all, the more heats they (hopefully) would share together, the harder it would be to excuse Kamui simply feeling unwell…and Subaru is the only one to alleviate him. The two disappearing for a week...it would be too obvious.

"I guess that's true…" Subaru breathes out in relief. He wraps his arms tighter around Kamui, pulling him into a deeper embrace.

"Did she say anything else…"

"Well…." Subaru pauses, burying himself in Kamui's neck, breathing in the sweet, seductive scent. He focuses on the less teasing messages…. "She says she loves you and looks forward to learning new recipes with you later on."

"Aww…that sounds nice," Kamui admits, beaming and melting at the genuine affection that already feels like family…. As embarrassing as that might be it felt…very right.

"Yeah…so…no matter what you want to do…I can be here with you, " Subaru begins, clearing his throat, nerves very evident.

"Thank you…." Kamui bites his lip, partly wanting to scream out but he knows it's his boyfriend's considerate personality. He only hopes Subaru starts to accept as they become closer….how very much Kamui wants everything with him.

And speaking of….his very earlier sense of want came flooding to his mind. He notices the clean sheets and bedding have already been replaced since he came out.

"You should shower too…I am sorry about earlier…" Kamui apologizes profusely, hiding his flushed face in his lover's shirt. And like that, all those emotions strike Subaru directly.

Subaru feels his mouth go dry and shakes his head. His body heat flare-up, emerald orbs drinking in the sight of beautiful exposed fair skin between the flaps of the too-big white robe.

Self-consciously, Kamui wraps the bathrobe around him in a hug. His face explodes in a bright pink blush when meeting Subaru's eyes. The latter male tries desperately to pretend he didn't follow Kamui's line of sight, how it fell lower and lower over his form. Or how...despite his slightly baggy change of clothes there's a pressing matter reacting to his beloved.

"It's not a problem…but I should…probably go do that," Subaru belatedly replies before rushing into the bathroom.


Desires

Entering the steamy room, brought out an array of emotions. For one, Kamui's incredibly sweet, sultry scent permeated through the air.

The sight of Kamui gazing at him thoroughly, moments ago made him shiver. A heat coiled in the center of his stomach. The little he managed to suppress in his desires earlier, came back full throttle. It was no surprise when he let his new clothes slip to the floor, just how he'd become.

Subaru felt helpless to his need, breathing in the scent of Kamui all over his place. The natural scent of his beloved, and soft hints from his cherry blossom body wash and shampoo used…overcame him.

Kamui had been here so recently…and naturally had to clean himself…with what was available. That was totally natural...he had to clean himself...after...

Subaru caved, reaching for his straining cock, imagining Kamui, lathering himself all over his body with his body wash. Cleaning himself everywhere...leaving behind further traces of what he left behind in the sheets overnight.

Subaru's entire lower body felt entirely too heavy, weighing him down and begging to release Really, he held no intentions of giving in to those needs like this. He turned the dial of the shower knob all the way to the cold side. Water cold as ice spraying down his form, did nothing but make his body and muscles stiffen.

His very pressing need hurt just as badly as when he entered the room. There was a resilience to it all, no matter how cold the water crashed down, the hotter he seemed to burn for his precious, beautiful omega.

Seeing the outcome as fruitless, Subaru turned the faucet dial back to a reasonable temperature.

Biting at his lip, his mind echoed the sounds of his boyfriend. The "ahs" and "mmns" and suppressed cries of his name, left him aching. Seeing his angel, wrapped up in only a fluffy white robe, and only robe, made his mouth go dry. His mind's eye memorized how beautiful Kamui's silky skin looked under his collar, contrasting beautifully with those bright pink buds down his chest.

More than anything... This morning, he felt the very essence of Kamui, on him... the natural lubricant dripping from inside his omega, presenting itself over his already hard organ. Unconsciously...Kamui's inner omega came out, seducing him, and seeing the way he was pressed into Kamui's body...he responded in kind. Without either of them consciously aware...they were already so connected.

Still feeling, Kamui's scent all over his lower half left him breathless and helpless. How could he hope his body could calm experiencing such a state. This was…far beyond his fantasies, what he allowed for himself.

Heats and ruts…all those needy, hormonal states of being never bothered him so. Now it's all he could think of. He clenched his hand tight by his side. His opened hand stretches out, slamming his palm firmly against the shower wall. A cascade of lukewarm water runs over his head bending it down, he looks at his straining arousal in slight disdain, as though it betrayed him. His body wouldn't listen to his better judgment...only one thing came to mind.

'I'm sorry…Kamui…' Subaru internally professed, eyes winced shut. To be thinking of his beloved like this…imagining Kamui so lewdly to release the ache inside. Painful to the point of sprouting tears, his balled-up hand began to wrap securely around himself.

'But there's nothing else that works…'

His body was not budging or calming in the slightest no matter how he suppressed the issue. The only one who could get him to that state of mind was Kamui. His alluring omega's pheromones seeped in through every inch of the bathroom. A scent so perfect, sweet, and addicting as only his Kamui could create.

Breathing in the scent once more, close to the wall in front of him his nose filled with a deep aroma. The scent is clearly Kamui but one even stronger, muskier, and rawer than anything before.

And 'Oh', the lavender scent swept up, especially dense in this corner of the shower. The thought of Kamui touching himself in this same spot was nearly enough to make him fall to his knees.

He bit hard on his lip, to suppress the gasp which came as his fingers finally wrapped snugly around his shaft.

Mind full of Kamui, envisioning his lover just as Kamui had done moments ago. Even if he had merely turned the water to one lukewarm, these thoughts were overwhelming, Kamui touching himself, in his shower…using his products…the water may as well be boiling now.

Shame fell from his burning features the longer he lingered on the fantasy. He cherishes the 'Kamui' pressed up against him, arms circling his shoulders. Their bodies flushed under the stream of water turning the cool feeling into vibrant steam.

Passionate lips fell over Subaru's own. An eager tongue teased him, licking at the seams. His younger lover took initiative, indulging him, as they had done not long ago.

Subaru envisions his hand being guided lower and lower taking Kamui and himself into his hands. Their hardened cocks pressed and slipped so close together and flushed together in his palms.

Sensitized regions were already dripping, covering each other beautifully. Essences drench the other until they can longer smell like themselves without drowning in the scent of each other.

Kamui keeps kissing him all over his face, trailing down to his neck. Subaru stays content keeping their sensitive regions embraced, tightening the hold and during the pace.

"Subaru~" Kamuis sweet voice coos to him. His laughter breaks into little giggles, so adorable and flirtatious he has to be on the precipice of his heat. "You're hard."

While entirely happy to continue like this…it wasn't seeming enough for his beloved. Kamui always did go above and beyond…ensuring Subaru was cherished and loved completely. He doubts this fantasy could do the sensations justice…but he couldn't help but hold these desires.

Rarely, would he let his thoughts fall like this. Focusing on his own pleasure in such a way…but the fantasy couldn't help but entrance him further.

"Let me, Please," Kamui smiles blissfully, planting kisses upon Subaru's cheeks. "Subaru," His lips press languidly over Subaru's reddened lips, deepening the connection, lingering.

Lower, Kamui leans down to kiss all over Subaru's defined jawline. He purrs in approval at the feeling of Subaru releasing one hand to clutch at the back of his head.

"I love you," Kamuis lips embrace Subaru's chest. They linger, pressed and smitten over the source of a throbbing heartbeat.

Lowering further, Subaru loses his grip, mind-numbing. His beloved kissed all across his abdomen, tongue teasing in the center of his stomach. "I love you so much."

Slipping down to his knees, Kamui burns with a beautiful blush of pink. "My, Subaru." He wraps a hand around his lover's wrist, nudging Subaru's hand away from his arousal.

Pleasuring Kamui feels out of reach. Kisses pepper around Subaru's pelvic region. Teasingly, they circle around the region that needs all the love and attention.

"My Alpha Subaru," Kamui coos, eyes dazzling, glazed, and focused on the sight before him.

"K-Kamui…." Subaru breathily cries his name. "You-you don't…"

"I love you, so so much," Kamui's lips pepper from Subaru's inner thighs. His hands part the slender warm legs before his lips take over, peppering little love marks all over.

"Please," Kamui beckons, insistent on peering deep into his lover, until their eyes meet. Only then does he press a kiss to the reddened tip? "Come undone for me…" he's begging, kissing all along the shaft. Little licks experiment up and down the throbbing organ. Kamui only smiles. Feeling that hardness, brushing at his cheeks and lips, almost demanding entrance inside that warm mouth.

Subaru's head falls back. His hands had long since fallen on top of Kamui's head. His fingers comb through those silky black locks. Kamui looks so perfectly debauched, lips smeared with pre-come. There's that determination in his eyes as he prepares to finally widen his lips, taking in the head.

"Mmmn-nnn," Kamui moans, voice helpless around his lover's dick. Already so very full.

"K-Kamui…" Subaru breathily slips out, hips seeming to move on their own accord. Even his fantasies he couldn't help but worry…it was selfish. "Y-you don't have t-to…." He tries despite being uncertain if he could turn back now. "I-I love you and I….ah…haaaa…"

Subaru's half-hearted pleas are worn over by a series of eager sucks. Kamui doesn't relent, hands cupping and covering what his mouth has yet to envelop.

"I…want you to-to also…feel good."

Finally, Kamui lessens his motions, lips spreading out and releasing Subaru with an obscene pop.

"I want to do this for you," Kamui says so sweetly, a gesture so sweet and selfless. "And besides…." Abashed, he glances down at his aroused organ. For the most part…there is some encouragement seeing Kamui rub his legs together, getting hard again…just sucking him.

"I…alright…." Subaru surrenders, closing his eyes, falling hard into the fantasy. He swears he can feel Kamui's lips, so indulgent on his own over his aching need. The notion Kamui could feel good doing something like this…puts him near the edge.

By the time those heavenly soft lips overlap his reddened tip, taking him all the way in…he knows he can't possibly last.

Determined, Kamui leans up further, widened his mouth, and takes more of his lover's length into his mouth. By the time he's covered half, he starts bobbing his head up and down. He hollows his cheeks, violet eyes watery with lust. Subaru bucks his hips up into the wet heat around him.

Kamui isn't one to give in, no, he needed to give his all when it came to the person he loved so dearly. He relaxes his throat muscles to finally take in that last bit of Subaru. He's dripping from the front and behind, aching need increasing as he becomes overly full of Subaru.

All his moans echo around Subaru's dick, as hot tears occasionally begin to fall. It can't be helped that his alpha is in…so very deep.

Subaru glimpses down, thankfully, there are no traces of pain in beautifully flushed features, as Kamui continues to take control. His hand releases to grasp at his boyfriend's aching hardness, while his mouth takes full control over Subaru. Not a centimeter is left alone.

"Ah….K-Kamui I cant…" Subaru warns through helpless teary eyes.

Seeing those beautiful plush lips, spreading wide and stretching to accommodate all of him is intoxicating. Kamui hums something reassuring, before continuing to move, sucking him in deeper, with more pressure.

"You're so beautiful right now…" Subaru professes, in a terribly sweet voice to his lover. Sugary-sweet nothings fall like rain, seeping deep into Kamui's heart, lighting a fire.

Kamui whines around his lover's throbbing sex, weak to all the wonderful praise. His cheeks hollow out, moaning at the loving words following each deepening thrust.

"My sweet Kamui ~" His loving words and erotic actions blend to make his boyfriend come helplessly undone.

Seeing those eager lips, devouring him whole, in such a state brings ecstasy. With one needy thrust, Kamui mewls around him, mouth so stuffed and now bursting with endless ribbons of white. He cries feeling the impact, his own body coming in sync.

Every last drop falls down Kamui's throat, swallowed and becoming a part of his omega's system. Embarrassingly, loud, happy purrs escape without Kamui's permission, indulging in the bittersweet taste.

He knows he's lost, so very far gone. Certainly, unable to look at the real Kamui's lips without burning up.

Really, it comes sweeping in soon enough. Subaru opens his eyes, in the room alone. He never dared to let himself think of Kamui doing that…nor would he consciously ask for something like that. Wanting to care for Kamuis needs first, always….yet the curiosity was there.

The soft plush lips did look so tempting. Subaru shakes his head. He's longing to hold Kamui in his arms, to comfort him, to tell him everything he loves about him, and more.

Such a fantasy took him over but it was done. He watched with shame, standing alone under the shower spray. His hot essence drowned away.

He takes a thorough, cold shower to make up for it, preventing any excitement to come out again. Calming himself until he can finally look his beloved Kamui in the eyes.


Talk….

Lounging on Subaru's bed, Kamui finally found himself at a point of reprieve. Having relieved himself helped the haziness start to clear.

Taking a few pills, gathered from their earlier grocery store run, helped him remain calm…when he was nearly certain Subaru was calling his name in the shower.

Subaru opened the door to the bathroom, looking refreshed, gaze falling helplessly to the beauty on his sheets. His boyfriend seemed content, smiling a little shyly at him.

In fact, Kamui looked quite comfortable there. 'And quite good here.' Subaru thought fondly. His heart wasn't ready for the scene to unfold. That being….

Kamui's nesting habits had returned. Their prior sheets were in the wash, but their bed had been made up, and now…then some.

"Ah, Kamui?" Subaru voiced breathily, holding to the door frame tightly. He bit inside his cheek, but could not for the life of him look away from the second. A flush of heat raced down his body.

Kamui folded up Subaru's white trench coat, neatly, as a preserved treasure, right upon his newly swapped pillow case, matching the light blue sheets beneath. He bundled himself up in the warm fluffy robe, Subaru gave him, presumably wearing something underneath. But those beautiful silky legs exposed halfway up his thighs.

Every little trace and scent of his Subaru had been bundled up in place on their beds. Soft loungewear, various trousers, shirts, and coats over varying hues are decorated all around the nest.

Subaru's tops worn most recently were curled closer to the center. Whilst clothing Subaru forgot about, holding a faint trance of Subaru's scent or aura were splayed over the outer edges of the nest.

Crawling around the bed, like a contented kitten, Kamui took a handful of extra blankets, tucking them in between the soft clothing bundles.

The only article of clothing left, save for the loose change of clothes on his person, would be his underwear….or at least he assumed, Kamui held back until he felt comfortable to do so. Or perhaps they were buried beneath…really he seemed so contented and comfortable-

Subaru couldn't find a reason to care, even if he may be wearing the only remains of his clothing not embedded into the nest.

Soft trinkets, even empty ofuda sheets littered about, everything involving Subaru and his comforting scent were padded down into their perfect place. Kamui sat back on his heels, admiring his work, and breathing a contented sigh.

"Kamui…." Subaru coos his name, adoration shimmering in his eyes. His words slip feeling more of an instinct seeping through. His body surges with a surge inside to protect, and keep guard over his omega's nest.

Just when Subaru thinks he regained his breath, he crosses his legs, one over the other picking up some Manga he must have brought from home.

Surrounding him with those nice clean sheets. Subaru's clothes surrounded his beloved in a perfect frame.

Subaru couldn't tear his gaze away, heat seeping through to his core. Seeing his beloved like that felt so very right.

"Kamui?" Subaru calls this time, breaking himself from his heated trance, and stepping fully into the room. He gently places a hand on the mattress not wanting to mess up the perfect nest.

"Subaru!" Kamui answers with a mix of surprise and elation. His eyes light up like dazzling stars as he turns his head. Shifting his body around, he leans up, arms reaching for his boyfriend.

Subaru gulps, Adam's apple visibly moving in his throat. He misses seeing the way his omega follows the motion, biting his lip.

"You seem to be feeling a little better…" Gently, Subaru grasps both of Kamui's hands, linking them with his own.

"Mhm," Kamui ensures, nodding and seeing with a brief bout of clarity. "I took some medicine…to calm the symptoms…a bit…"

Heat suppressants were nothing abnormal for one's first heat and adjusting. To give a reprieve from desperate aching inside.

They had worked…and should stay that way at least a little longer…Kamui found serenity, having his space to build up his perfect nest until his boyfriend came back.

Although, with Subaru, this close, leaning over his nest…he already feels the effects slipping.

His mind supplies a few words his mother told him as a child. He couldn't help but wonder if she knew one day…. a mother's intuition.

'When fated pairs come to meet, even the strongest of medicines struggle to take effect.'

Their bodies were naturally drawn and quite literally made for one another. Suppressing the feelings would only be ludicrous, an attempt at defying fate…

'Honestly…' Kamui melts feeling an addicting warm touch. 'This is a kind of fate I don't want to fight…'

"May I…" Subaru begins his request, still too far from his omega for his liking. Ever so politely he held his beloved's hands, perching at the edge of the nest as to keep it in place.

Kamui blinks, not understanding but already nodding. Because this was a request from Subaru….so…what else could he do? This meant his beloved would come in closer, so he happily beamed, purring audibly despite himself as he watched his lover crawl over into the center of the nest, joining him.

Immediately and ultimately on instinct, Kamui crawled over the tiny space between, wrapping his arms around his alpha's shoulders.

Subaru shivers, feeling lips grace over that sensitive patch of skin. He bites inside of his cheek, hoping to calm the surging hormones that come over to entirely scent Kamui. Bathing him in his natural essence. Sensing the perfect blend of their scents mixed together.

Gorgeous violet-blue orbs flutter closed sense of touch and smell growing wilder. Contented, Kamui nuzzles himself in the crook of his boyfriend's neck.

"Subaru…" Kamui coos, his warm ticklish breath teases over that same area of his beloved's neck.

"Hm?" Subaru falls to the sensation. His arms loop securely around Kamui's waist. His hands trace, marveling at every curve and crevice before resting on Kamui's slender hips.

Considering the way Kamui moves to straddle his hips, he could say the notion was appreciated. Plush lips place a kiss right over the scent gland, making the alpha hurriedly slap a hand over his mouth, suppressing the groan.

Kamui's beautiful eyelashes flutter in that sensitive crook. Violet-blue orbs seem to sparkle, lighting up and feeling the vibrations of a needy groan he managed to bring out.

Subaru's cheeks dusted red, eyes averting, ashamed of losing composure this easily. The oh-so-sweet smell of lavender expels into the air, making his hold on Kamui's hips tighten, pulling him up to his lap.

"Subaru?" Kamui speaks dreamily, mind seemingly in a daze. A very pleasant one. He can't hide the beaming curl to his lips for the world. Leaning forward he pecks Subaru's lips.

Neither can deny the need for this much affection. Subaru leans in to steal a second kiss, this one smoother, their lips partly closed yet tenderly melding over one another.

Needingly, the right hand at Kamui's hips travels up the curve of his sides, and chest and finally arrives to cup a slender chin.

Tilting the younger man's face up, he tilts his head at an angle and dives in so their lips cover perfectly. Lovingly, moving again and again, meeting at new and enticing angles, to connect them as deeply as possible.

Plush lips pressing back to Subaru are the epitome of heavenly. So soft, warm, and sultry, he can't help but taste them, licking them over several times, lingering. Nibbling a sensitive bottom lip brings out the most beautiful cries from Kamui. He knows he's falling helplessly into deeper, hotter, and untamed kisses.

What surprises Subaru most isn't how easily he caved to the affection…but how desperately his words fall from his lips. "May…I…scent you?"

Stars shoot across the violet sky of Kamui's watery orbs. He nods enthusiastically, humming a sincere sound of approval.

Subaru clears his throat…embarrassed his voice would sound so needy….not even being the one in heat…or….rut…not that he had experience with either. Well not before this at least…

No, this need came directly from Subaru's heart, mind, and body. The need to cover Kamui with his scent, giving off a clear signal to anyone near, that his omega is utterly taken.

Lifting his arm, he brings up his wrist. Going toward the source he embedded his scent between Kamui's neck and shoulders. Blending their natural aromas into one intoxicating scent. A clear signal to anyone coming near they had found a match.

Certainly, this could be done by others as a protective method, to keep unsavory alphas away, as romantic partners, necessarily as mates but…

The longer they remained like this, the more implausible such an idea became. The connection between them is so very natural, the love and need to act further on the feeling overwhelm.

His beautiful Kamui seems to glow under these ministrations. Subaru brushes the underside of his wrist, up and down Kamui's neck, arms, shoulders, and even over the clothes on his chest. Particularly stopping above where his fluttering heart would be.

As his hand caresses Kamui's pinkened cheeks he feels a hand wrapping around his wrist.

This was bad…Subaru could feel his sense of control slipping, emerald eyes glowing with a lustful hue.

Never having been triggered into a rut….only experiencing mild versions on his own…he hadn't been prepared for how overcoming these hormones would be.

As though a fog was clouding the atmosphere around them, only Kamui could be seen, absolutely shining, all that mattered now.

Kamui closed those beautiful violet orbs, dark lashes fluttering as though to enchant their potential mate. Subaru couldn't look away for an instant. The fingers wrapped over his wrist, kept them in place.

Sweetly, Kamui nuzzles his cheek over Subaru's wrist, hugging it close. He brushes every bit of his beloved's scent over his beautiful features.

Emerald orbs glazed over, with absolute want, enamored emotions seeping through

'He's way….too cute.' Subaru's mind supplied Certainly does not help the situation nor to think clearly. As Kamui brings his lips to Subaru's wrist, the latter's eyes widen, intensely.

Unable to take it anymore, Subaru retracts his hand. Instincts guided him to quickly ravish those beautiful lips with his own. His tongue instantaneously claimed ownership, teasing between the beautiful pair before entering deep within.

Kamui closes his eyes, humming his approval. He gladly parts his lips, letting his precious alpha boyfriend explore as he wants.

Only encouraged, further, Kamui slides forward, closer. He parts his legs again before, straddling his lover's hips more securely until he's comfortably in his lap.

His beloved leaves no stone unturned, licking needily over every curve inside his cheeks, gums, and the roof of his mouth. Finally, after teasing enough he darts the tip of his tongue upon Kamui's own, coaxing it into joining.

Moaning loudly, into his lover's mouth, he follows the motions, lips searing as they move, tongues entangling in their own dance. Kamui feels hands fall to his lips, he's scooped up and placed on his beloved's lap once more.

Feeling satisfied by this development his instincts take over. He wraps his arms tightly over Subaru's shoulders, hips rocking as though on their own accord. Very audible, his inner omega emits pleasing sounds and purrs.

Kiss after needy kiss, each one more desperate messy yet passionate than the next.

'I need to get…some control over this…'

Subaru thinks with his last bit of sense. His hands hold tighter to Kamui's hips earning a pleasing mewl. He keeps his beloved from moving further, holding him still, as he slowly reigns them back in.

But he can feel those plush lips, pouting as he retracts his tongue ever so slightly almost making him cave…. Wanting to pin Kamui back to the bed and…. He shakes his head harshly.

Slowing those passionate kisses enough…to tender sweet presses of lips on lips.

Panting…flushed, the pair can't keep their eyes from one another. But there's…a matter that needs to be addressed.

"There are some things we should talk about…I'll get us something to drink," Subaru offers, a smile melting from his lips, as he watches in awe of his beloved cuddled up in his nest.

"Okay…" Kamui says softly, clutching his beloved's coat tight to his chest.

Subaru can't help but watch the way Kamui holds his coat so tight, hugging it like it's something sacred. A simple article of clothing…being deemed precious because…it was his,,, A hopeless curl spreads over Subaru's lips seeming to want to melt away.

"Subaru?" Kamui asks, wantonly, eyes still so glossy, as he holds Subaru every bit as tight as before. His body can't help but cave into the warmth, pressing against Subaru.

"If you're…ah…alright with it," Subaru phrases between needy breaths. "We can…talk on this…outside of the room?" Outside of the nest.

However, inexperienced as hopeless at love, Subaru knew the importance of an omega and their need for comfort, to feel safe…if he couldn't part from the nest yet…then he'd have to give it everything to keep himself in check and talk calmly, holding back his growing needs.

While tempting to talk in the nest, lying down might insight into certain feelings again. Make them lose track of things.

Another moment, all over each other in the nest, would certainly cloud judgment…even if their desires were the same anywhere…knowing Kamui's needs were met, that they were on the same page, with a clear mind is crucial.

Kamui to his eternal gratitude is understanding and nods. "It's still my preheat…I should be okay for today…at least…I'll go with you" I hope… he can only think, this is his first experience with heat.

'This isn't your full heat yet?' Subaru tries to keep cool, knowing he had been seconds from being seduced with so much as kissing in the past few minutes…and this wasn't even the brunt of it.

"And I….don't want to be apart from you…" The sweetest admission nearly left Subaru's knees giving out. Beautiful sparkly doe eyes peer up at him, Kamui reaching for him.

"Okay…let's…" Subaru begins clearing his throat. He eyes how baggy his robe hangs over Kamui, exposing his fair skin quite a bit, sitting forward like this. "Let me carry you…and we can talk over…tea?"

Cravings coming on rather strongly he answers ..."Hot chocolate?" He breathes Subaru's scent in, exhaling with euphoric satisfaction.

"Of course," Subaru returns fondly, adoring his lover's taste for sweets. As such he always kept a variety of drinks when Kamui came over.

This far deep, Kamui doesn't make a single sound of protest. He keeps his arms steady around his boyfriend's shoulders and nods. Subaru wraps one arm around his love's upper back and under his knees, easily lifting him into the air.


Talk

Arriving in the kitchen, Subaru brews them their drinks. It had taken longer than expected, with Kamui peppering kisses all over his face and neck.

But they made it….Subaru lovingly deposited Kamui on one of the dining chairs.

Unintentional, Kamui let out a humph, feeling the warm arms all around him letting him go. Even if his mind understood why…it didn't help the pang of longing wave through him from head to toe.

This was needed, a place to cool themselves off a bit…make things known.

At the dining room table… 'It's not like…I couldn't see us doing it here….' The erotic thought slips through Kamui's mind. Whether the bed…couch…table…so long as he was this close to Subaru…he felt his insides rekindling a suppressed fire.

But he had enough sense of self to brush the thought away, knowing sitting up would be at least less tempting than…

'But…the nest would be better to start…' Kamui wholeheartedly agrees with his inner omega. For their first time, whenever that would come, he wanted it to be a place he could lie down and cuddle up with Subaru long after they were done.

Subaru returning, brings back a familiar, yet embarrassing purr. Simply, seeing his boyfriend walk closer to him, lights a warmth inside that makes everything feel complete.

His boyfriend doesn't miss the beautiful sounds and smiles that come from his return to the table. Absolute warmth, a desire to share and give that warmth to his precious love coursed through his veins.

"Thank you," Kamui voices, focused more on how their hands brushed, fingers caressed, when being passed the warm cup of cocoa.

Subaru places his own cup of tea on the table, calming lavender and vanilla, though he was feeling anything but…how could he…when he can't even pick a drink without being reminded of his boyfriend's intoxicating scent?

Their drinks are fresh and steaming, they host a beautiful aroma, and he would have indulged more if his senses were not overtaken by Kamui's addictive sweet scent.

Sitting this close together, sharing a soft quiet moment…Subaru looks deep into those violet-blue orbs which light up at the first taste of hot cocoa. 'Forever' is the word that comes to his mind, watching Kamui with a fondness that never fades.

They already have matching mugs with their initials engraved, a gift from Hokuto upon learning they'd become a couple.

They needed to discuss things, to be certain… even if a certain longing was growing stronger between the alpha and omega…more so between Subaru and Kamui.

Closeness felt as necessary as the air they breathed. Kamui sat up, shifting and scooting his chair until it pressed up against his boyfriend's.

"I wanted…to be closer…" Kamui murmurs his excuse, unsure where his omega hormones ended and his personal desires began, or if they were in alignment altogether.

Subaru's lips curve up at this, foolishly happy with just those few words. He feels Kamui's sides flush up against his own, their legs kissing. Taking a calming sip of tea, he grasps his beloved's hand, loving the way Kamui returns the hold, lacing their fingers. As Kamui pillows his arm, his lover kisses his forehead tenderly.

Kamui is priceless and worth the world…he needs to make that clear. That no matter what…Subaru will happily accept his love's choice.

"Kamui?" Subaru begins, with some uncertainty, gaze falling, drifting down to the table. He stares off, into his reflection in the warm tea.

"Subaru?" Kamui mimics the same gentle yet anxious tone. His anxiety feels more like holding back this long.

"With your heat this close…I want you to know I accept whatever you want to do…and I'll …." Subaru flusters, voice beginning to crack. He feels a reassuring squeeze in his hand. "I'll help…" He tightens one hand around his cup, words feeling all wrong. Like it were a 'favor' to Kamui and not…everything he never knew he needed. "I want to be there for you however I can…"

"You…accept it. Subaru…I know you're being kind…" Kamui shakes his head, frustration creating creases on his forehead. One on hand understands his lover's considerate and gentle behavior. Yet the other…really doesn't want to talk about future intimacy like it's a business deal… "But…what you want is very important to me too."

"What I….want…" Subaru swallows hard, looking into deep needy violet orbs. They're shining so beautifully ready to make his heart captivate alongside that blossoming smile on those soft pink lips.

"Of course," Kamui ensures with a beaming expression. He licks at his lips, pressing them together. His hand squeezed hard at his boyfriend's hand, while nerves cloud those violet eyes with worry. His lips start to quiver, while rejection doesn't feel likely…the possibility is crushing. "Do you want me, Subaru?"

Kamui asks that question, with trembling eyes and lips.

"Kamui," Subaru coos his name so endearingly, before sealing all doubts away in a tender, languid kiss.

How had Kamui held any doubts? To his throbbing heart and mind, it seemed improbable. As though it wasn't the most obvious thing in the world. But…he couldn't expect Kamui to read his mind…even if they did usually understand each other so well.

Perhaps…he held back so much…he'd cause such uncertainty. Subaru bows his head apologetically, lips still lingering from their kiss.

"Yes," Subaru professes, cupping one hand under Kamui's chin and stealing a handful of adoring kisses. "I want you more than anything."

"I…" Kamui feels his breath hitching, kisses following up one after another. His sense of self and ability or words fading.

"I love you, very much, Kamui," Subaru confesses as though he hadn't said the words hundreds of times, and would only continue to say so countless times more. He leans his head down to rest on Kamui.

Kamui breathes out slowly, fondness overtaking him. His eyes partly close, feeling their noses brush in tender kisses. "Love you too…" he returns more breathily, and wantonly than needed.

His boyfriend seems to only find the tone more alluring. He kisses Kamui several times more, licking his lips and lingering even while the kisses come in deeper.

"I love you, and I want to make sure…whatever happens is what you truly want more than anything…" Subaru expresses so very sweetly, placing kisses on the crown of his omega's head.

"Subaru…" Kamui hums, finding his heart touched, throbbing under such admissions. "This is what I want…"

"Kamui?" Subaru's voice hitches, feeling hands grasping his cheeks. He's made to look at those beautiful violet orbs with their intensity.

"Subaru, please…will you spend my heat with me?" Kamui requests, words sounding like an opening through heaven's gates.

"And this is…" Subaru begins nervously. "You're certain?"

Kamui pouts for a moment, unsure if he wants to scream or kiss his boyfriend senselessly. "I've never been more certain…of what I want…so long as it's what you want to do…you don't have to…"

"I want to!" Subaru abruptly cuts in, surprising his lover and himself. Really, the invitation and scent of his precious person this close, this sweet…keeping in check became harder. "I… planned on giving you a more romantic first time."

"It's plenty romantic," Kamui ensures all too sweetly, smiling knowingly. "So long as it's with you…"

"Our first time…will be during your heat…" Subaru murmurs, unsure who he was trying to convince. This wasn't thought out or planned, he couldn't give Kamui perfection….but still. "I don't want to…feel like I'm taking advantage in any way-"

"You're not!" Kamui cuts in abruptly, feeling bad at the hurt puppy look in shimmering emerald orbs. "You are not at all…I've taken some medicine and even still…I know myself and what I want…"

"Kamui…" Subaru breathes his name, seeming to barely keep hold of his sanity. His control slipped by the second. "Our first time being in heat is really alright." He licks his lips, finally starting to believe his lover's words and tends to their shared needs.

"I'm not in heat yet," Kamui proposes despite his flaring, burning cheeks. With boldness, he places his cup on the table and crawls over to his boyfriend's chair. He straddles his alpha, legs dangling on either side of the chair. "So…what about now?"

"Now…." Subaru repeats the word in a breathy tone. He couldn't find any more reason to argue, he trusted Kamui and his words… "Yes…."

"Yes?" Kamui laughs, smiling, growing a little more flirtatious as he sits fully in his lover's lap. He feels an eagerness stirring, heat coiling inside as he feels hands grasping his hips tightly.

"Right now…I very much…want to…" Subaru professes softly, eyes burning growing darker and hazier with desire. "I need to feel you...May I... make love to you?"

Kamui purrs loudly, internally and from his words. "Subaru…please…" He utters those words before finding his lips claimed, a sense of gravity shifting in seconds.

Subaru lifts Kamui into his arms, holding his angel bridal style. Their lips remain connected, deepening Subaru's senses and leading them back to their bedroom without having to break the kiss once.

"I need you…" Kamui pleads between kisses, feeling his heart, mind, and body in sync with this burning desire. "Inside me…" he whispers right into his boyfriend's ear, feeling lightly deposited and pushed back into their bed, the nest…

Their senses were overcome with Subaru lying over him, encasing him with such warmth. He kisses his lover so deeply, before falling into bed, pinning his precious Kamui to the sheets.

Certain…tonight would become treasured and irreplaceable further connecting, and intertwining their destinies together. Their future…and forever starting here.
