15 weeks

Eddy sighed as he sank into his bed, body resting comfortably in the thick covers. He hummed happily, his appetite having been restored, and his ability to actually keep food down getting better by the hour. For the first time in forever, Eddy felt full and content.

A hand slipped under his head, cradling it softly as he lay on his back. His other hand rested lightly on his very slight baby bump. You could only see it if you really followed the outline of his frame, but it was there now; he could no longer deny that this was just some horrible dream.

He was sixteen, pregnant, and in an incomplete mating bond.

Eddy frowned at that thought. His appetite may have been getting better, and his morning sickness all but disappeared, but he felt an intense, bone-deep fatigue weighing him down. It had popped up around the halfway mark to his thirteenth week and seem to settle like a haze around him. It usually took all of his willpower to remain conscious or even standing.

By some odd miracle, no one knew that he had been marked by Kevin. He buried himself in baggy clothing and still bathed in cologne. While the Alpha's scent had dampened slightly, it still clung to him, wrapping and mingling with his own sweeter aroma.

A sharp ache pulled at his chest as he thought of Kevin. He hadn't heard from the older teen in weeks, the red head going completely silent. Eddy had thought that Kevin's affirmation in his kitchen was the jock admitting to Eddy that he was ready to be the father; apparently, he was gravely mistaken.

Eddy rolled onto his side, his spare pillow pressed tightly to his chest in pseudo comfort. His eyes misted over as his thoughts bombarded him. He wasn't sure why he was so upset; he had given Kevin the out if he wanted it.

'So why did Kevin taking it hurt so much.'

Eddy closed his eyes, doing everything in his power to shut down his mind and give himself over to sleep. When it didn't come, Eddy groaned in frustration.

Sitting up, Eddy ran a hand through his disheveled locks, maybe he should just go for a walk. He thought about it for a moment more before a shrug of his shoulders and he was up, pulling on his shoes. Cellphone in hand, Eddy left via the side entrance, the door closing quietly behind him so he didn't disturb his parents.

Eddy stepped out of the shadow of his house, blue eyes turning skyward to admire the large, full moon above him. A small smile pulled at his face as he took in warm glow, a small dusting of stars twinkling throughout the sky.

A cool breeze rushed around his petit form, eyes closing as he relaxed in the embrace of Mother Nature. The weather was beginning to cool, fall coming just around the corner. The air around him had a bite of cold, but it felt pleasant on his heated form.

Just as Eddy began to move at a meandering pace, a car pulled into the cul-de-sac, creeping slowly down the small street before veering into Kevin's driveway. Under the glow of the moon, Eddy was able to make out the silhouette of the jock inside the car, as well as a black apparition of a person riding passenger.

He watched as Kevin stepped out of the driver seat, green eyes locking onto his as his passenger car door opened. Eddy tried not to let Kevin see his pain and disappointment when Nazz climbed out of the car as well.

With his head down, Eddy sped past the duo, eyes burning from held back tears. He powerwalked to the end of his street before randomly picking a direction and following that path. He didn't care where he ended up, just as long as he didn't have to see his Alpha with another person.

He made it three houses down before stampeding feet caught up to his quick pace, a rough, calloused hand grabbing onto his bare arm in an effort to stop him.

"What?!" he snapped, voice harsh with emotions he really didn't want to name.

"What the hell are you doing out here?" the jock asked, trying his best to get Eddy to just look at him, but the dark haired teen did everything but that.

"What does it look like?" Eddy hissed, eyes coming up to glare into concerned green ones, "I'm going for a walk."

"Eddy, it's almost midnight." Kevin said hesitantly, his hand releasing the omega.

"Thanks for the time check," Eddy muttered sarcastically as he started to walk away. The shadow next to him informed him that the jock was following him.

Annoyed, Eddy stopped and turned to Kevin, venom dripping from each word, "Shouldn't you be back there with Nazz?"

Kevin looked confused for a moment before annoyance darkened his features, "We're just coming back from a game."

"It's almost midnight," Eddy mocked, eyes rolling before continuing on his walk.

"It was an away game." Kevin answered, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Sure it was." Eddy hissed, his pace quickening slightly in an effort to lose his overbearing shadow. A bothered sigh came from behind him before a hand clamped down on his arm once more, holding him in place.

"Eddy," Kevin started, hesitation lingering in his voice. He sounded as if he wanted to say something important, yet, instead, a sigh blew out of his lips, his voice low as he uttered, "What are you really doing out here?"

Moments of silence floated between them before Eddy finally gave a sigh of his own, voice soft, "I can't sleep."

The jock said nothing, instead, he slipped Eddy's arm around his and began to walk with the omega, an awkward silence prevailing between them as they moved along.

Eddy wouldn't lie, being close to Kevin like this, it hurt. He wanted this, he wanted it all of the time; not when it was convenient for the red head. Eddy wouldn't dare voice his suffering thoughts aloud, he didn't want to erase this completely. So, with a failing smile on his lips, Eddy pulled himself closer to his Alpha, the scent of Earth and smoke filling his senses.

They walked along the moonlit street in silence, Eddy just happy to have his Alpha near him, even if it was only temporary. Eventually, Eddy felt that soul sucking fatigue catch up with him, his limbs feeling heavy. Without saying a word, Eddy got them to change their direction to head back to their homes, his vision swimming slightly as he lightly panted from the exertion.

His steps stumbled, his weight leaning heavily against Kevin. The jock took notice, his arm wrapping around the omega's waist to steady him, pulling Eddy's small frame to his own for support.

"You okay?" Kevin asked, his arm automatically tightening when the omega tripped over his own feet.

Eddy took a moment to collect himself before answering, "M'fine. Just tired."

Kevin did not seem the slightest bit convinced, but before he could voice his doubt, they were standing back in front of their neighboring houses. Eddy pulled himself from Kevin's frame, pausing momentarily as his vision swam harshly.

"Eddy?" he could hear Kevin talking to him, but it sounded as if he were submerged underwater, everything muffled and so distant.

"Goodnight." Eddy quickly muttered before hurrying to his room, leaving his Alpha behind without a glance. Eddy made it to his door, trembling hand opening the mundane entrance before slipping inside.

Inside his bedroom, Eddy allowed his lungs to gasp for the air they had been denying themselves. His legs trembled, knees buckling as he stepped toward his bed. The omega caught himself before he fell completely, knees thudding into the soft carpet below him as his hands slammed down to keep him upright.

Eddy gave a pitiful whimper as he watched his world tilt on its axis, his entire body feeling like it was rocking on harsh waves. Crawling forward, Eddy made it to his bed, his fatigued body pulling itself into his bed. A deep thudding pain pulsated behind Eddy's closed eyes as a vicious cramp tore through his abdomen. A sob broke from Eddy as he curled into himself.

With a shuddering breath, heavy eyelids closed, an intense ringing played through his ears before everything went silent abruptly.

With a hiccupping sob, Eddy fell into unconsciousness.

---

Eddy's bare feet stood shakily on his cold linoleum floor, his breathing ragged as pain washed through him. It hurt, everything hurt.

Eddy cried out, his body folding on itself as he gripped his bathroom counter, knuckles turning white from his fierce grip. He could feel tears dripping down his cheeks, could feel the trembling of his body as it collapsed underneath him.

A pitiful whine ripped from Eddy's vocal cords as he felt that white hot agony race through his lower body, his pained blue eyes squeezing shut. His breathing became labored, his lungs aching for air they couldn't seem to catch. Then he felt it, the slight dampness between his legs that brought a spark of confusion with it.

'Was he dropping again? Could he do that?'

A louder, more agonized yell filled his bathroom as that damp feeling grew, searing cramps twisting his insides. Eddy traced a shaky hand up his thighs, dipping under his curled up frame to palm the wet feeling soaking his jeans. Slowly, he brought that hand up to his vision, breath hitching as he saw his skin painted red.

' Blood?'

He was bleeding. Why was he bleeding?

A strangled sob tore through Eddy as he glanced down his body, watching as that damp patch pooled into a large stain on both his person and the pristine floor.

Glassy eyes watched as all that red spread outward, soaking through the thighs of his jeans, the unabsorbent material dripping vicarious fluid into a small puddle beneath him.

There was so much blood. 'Why was there so much?'

An outright cry of anguish ricocheted in his empty bathroom as his cramps worsened, pure agony racing through his abdomen. God! Something was trying to come out.

Eddy quickly unbuttoned his jeans, pulling them down and off his body, glassy eyes watching as the scarlet red spread like a virus across his linoleum floor. The heat in his frame flared, the pain washing over every sense as an unspeakable pressure gripped his lower body.

His knees spread wider, body leaning onto his forearms as he fought against that pressure. A roaring scream of torment, the immense pressure pulling him down, teeth gnashing together as he willed the feeling to leave him.

A soft plop and it was gone, leaving behind the pangs of phantom pain. He gasped, lungs heaving as he waited for his blurred vision to center.

He wish it hadn't.

Tears poured down his cheeks as strangled sobs left him breathless. This wasn't right; this wasn't how it was supposed to happen.

'No, no, no, no, no, no…'

A deep intake of breath and then a piercing, broken wail echoed through his surroundings, drilling deeply into his mind…

---

Eddy bolted upwards, tears sliding down his face as he gasped. Deft hands ripped the covers off of his body, hand immediately feeling in-between his legs, searching for that ever-telling pool of red. Snatching his hand back, he gave a sob of relief to see it unstained.

Eddy flopped backwards, sucking in ragged breaths as he tried to calm down, a hand automatically cupping the slight swell of his abdomen.

'He was fine. His baby was fine. There's no blood…'

Eddy managed to stop the trembling of his frame, but a stray sob escaped every few seconds as he convinced his mind that it was all a nightmare, a horrible, horrible nightmare.

Without hesitation, Eddy flipped onto his side, hand snatching up his cellphone, nimble fingers unlocking it before finding the contact he wanted. Eddy pressed the call button and waited, each ring feeling like eternity existed between.

On the forth ring, a groggy voice answered, voice somewhat muffled by the obvious pull of sleep. Eddy felt the tears come harder, his body breaking down into a song of immense woe. The voice on the other side woke quickly, alarm filling the receiver but Eddy could only answer with heart-wrenching sobs.

A mumbled curse, the line going dead and he was left to the sound of his own pain. A minute ticked by and his doorknob jiggled, door slamming in place from the force behind the push.

Another hissed curse, before frantic pounding on his door got Eddy moving. He rushed over to his door, hurriedly undoing the locks and swinging the door open.

Green locked onto blue before Eddy collapsed into his Alpha's arms, his wails loud and haunting. Kevin quickly caught the distressed omega, pushing both of their frames towards the bed before sitting them down.

"Eddy?!" his sleep laden voice sounded panicked, caught completely off guard by the breakdown spiraling in front of him. His muscled arms tightened around Eddy, pulling his smaller frame into his lap as he did his best to soothe the smaller one's pain.

A light in the hallway illuminated Eddy's door in a halo, before the bedroom door burst open. Eddy's mother stood in the frame of the door for a moment, before racing over to the two teens. She immediately dropped to her knees, her hands frantically pulling at Eddy to get him to face her.

"What's wrong?" her voice rang as she looked over her son, eyes snapping to Kevin's helpless ones.

"I don't know." Kevin said as he pulled Eddy even tighter into his arms, hand rubbing soothingly over the small of the omega's back, "He called me out of the blue and was just sobbing. I ran over and he was like this."

"Eddy," he could hear his mother whisper soothingly to him, "What's wrong? What happened?"

It took Eddy several minutes before he calmed down, his shoulders hiccupping with each sniffle and choked sob. Kevin brushed away Eddy's wayward tears, pressing butterfly kisses to the top of his head, lips muttering sweet nothings into his ear. Eddy's mother kneeled in front of the two, wild eyes wide as her smooth hands rubbed his.

"I lost the baby." Eddy finally managed to squeeze out, doing his best to repress the new round of sobs wanting to break free. Kevin froze, his hand unintentionally tightening on Eddy's arm into a bruising grip.

Eddy's mother made a distressed noise, her hands and eyes instantly searching for the evidence. She hastily stood, hands tossing Eddy's comforter away as she scanned the unblemished sheets. Her racing heart calmed slightly, not finding the obvious signs of miscarriage.

Eddy's mother walked back in front of Eddy, kneeling back down. Her voice soft and un-accusing as she questioned him, "I don't see any signs."

Eddy swallowed around the large lump in his throat, head shaking slightly before muttering an apology. With a haggard voice, Eddy informed them of his horrendous dream; how real the agony had felt; how devastating the loss was. Both Alpha and mother listened to his story, each seeking to soothe his obvious distress in their own ways.

"It was a nightmare, Eddy." His mother stated matter-of-factly, hand messaging circles into tense muscles.

"It felt so real." He whined, his tears slowing but not stopping completely. His mother gave him a sad smile, her arms wrapping around both her son and the Alpha holding him. She spoke softly, voice light as she calmed her youngest son's worst fears.

"I'm sorry." Eddy eventually whispered as he calmed, tears finally stopping, leaving behind only the stain of them.

"Don't be sorry." His mother said, her frame leaning forward to place sweet kisses to Eddy's forehead and cheek.

"I'm okay now." Eddy said as he pulled back from Kevin's encompassing hold, the jock just barely letting him. He still sat in his Alpha's lap, though he leaned forward to give a bear hug to his mother, thanking her quietly for her help.

It took some coaxing, but Eddy's mother finally stood, leaving her son's room but not without a leaving glance over her shoulder.

Eddy leaned heavily into Kevin's frame, his entire being exhausted. Kevin still rubbed a hand against his back, fingers pushing lightly into knotted muscles in an effort to loosen them.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Kevin whispered, a hand lightly gripping Eddy's chin to tilt his face towards his. Eddy sniffled every so often, but nodded his head, a watery smile briefly gracing his lips.

Kevin stood, lifting the petit form of his omega in his arms before walking the couple of steps to the side of the bed. Kevin gently placed Eddy onto his bed, body leaning over to grab the comforter and tuck it around Eddy's body.

The Alpha quickly shut off the light before stumbling to the other side. Eddy felt the cover lift up, the mattress dip under the jock's weight, before thick arms pulled him against a strong chest. Eddy curled into Kevin's frame, his head tucking underneath Kevin's chin, eyes closing in a semblance of peace.

When Eddy finally fell asleep, it was to the jock's fingers treading lightly through his hair.

---

He was warm, comfortably so. Floating mindlessly between sleep and alertness, Eddy snuggled deeper into that peaceful warmth. A sigh of content left his lips, the aroma of wet earth and plum of lingering smoke filled every inch of his consciousness, his inner omega purring at the scent.

With a small hum, blue eyes blinked open, eyes taking in the messy nightstand in front of him. At some point, he must have turned over during the night. Eddy rolled back over so he was facing the jock, close enough to watch the gentle fall of his chest as he slept, but not close enough to stifle the other.

Eddy smiled slightly, heart swelling that Kevin had stayed with him, even when he didn't have to. It warmed Eddy's soul.

Eddy took a moment to take in the sleeping red head: face relaxed, resting on his back with one arm thrown over his head and the other laying across his chest rising and falling in a gentle rhythm. Haloed by soft glow of the sun peeking through the blinds, Eddy was convinced that Kevin was of Heaven descent.

Then his thoughts turned dirty. Hungry eyes took in the muscle of those arms that had so delicately held him, thick and strong, yet inoffensive. With a feather light touch, Eddy traced the jock's well defined chest, body tingling as he traced the hard pectoral muscles on his sleeping companion. Feeling bold, Eddy traced his hand lower, a swallowed moan choking his throat as he traced that hard abdomen.

Kevin moaned quietly in his sleep as he shifted, temporarily making Eddy snatch his hand back. When he was sure the red head was dead asleep, he reached back out, running his finger lightly through the peach fuzz trailing down from Kevin's navel.

Eddy dipped his finger under Kevin's loose pajama pants, finger curling through the pubic hair to just barely flick across the head Kevin's cock.

'Dear god, he was hard. Morning wood indeed.'

Eddy, himself, felt hot and bothered, need pulsating between his legs. A whimper left him as he unconsciously shifted his thighs, trying to extinguish the burn of desire. He could feel himself slick, hips canting back and forth to bring himself some relief.

Eddy whined in the back of his throat before pressing carefully closer to Kevin. He leaned forward, his lips pressing feather light kisses along the jock's strong jaw, heading back towards his exposed ear. Eddy lightly blew on the ear, before sucking on the lobe briefly, his teeth just barely grazing the flesh.

Kevin gave a deep rumble as he shifted slightly, eyes still closed. Eddy moved on, his lips gliding down the exposed curve of the jock's neck, lips pressing phantom kisses. He kept going until he lingered over the Alpha's scent gland. His mouth descended, sucking harshly on the skin, teeth lightly digging into the giving flesh, wanting so badly to bite through, to claim what he already owned.

Kevin gave a shuddering moan, goosebumps breaking out over his flesh. Eddy hummed in approval, lips planting a light kiss to the bruised mark he had left before moving to sit up. Eddy tucked his legs underneath him, so he rested on them. Hesitant eyes glanced up briefly at the sleeping Alpha's face, before he leaned down, lips brushing lightly across the cut abs exposed to the cool air of his bedroom.

Eddy nipped at the jock's belly button, teeth lightly pulling at the skin there before dipping his hot tongue into the little crevice. With a small moan of his own, Eddy closed his lips around the navel, sucking harshly for a moment before quickly pulling away.

Kevin's breathing had picked up, his lips parted to let out a soft, encouraging moan every so often, cheeks flushed with unconscious arousal. It was turning Eddy on, more so than he already was.

Just as he reached out again, a strong hand wrapped around his wrist, pulling his wayward appendage to parted lips, a kissed brushed to the back of his knuckles. Eddy felt his face flush fiercely, especially with the smirk the jock was giving him.

"Uh… mornin'." Eddy squeaked as Kevin sat up, pushing his body closer to Eddy's as he leaned forward.

"Mornin'." Kevin spoke into Eddy's ear, his voice low and thick with arousal, sending a shiver up the omega's spine. Eddy was tugged forward, his body forcibly straddling the alpha's waist.

"Wanna explain what you were doing?" the red head mumbled into the tender skin of Eddy's exposed neck. Pearl white canines peaked out from parted lips to graze across the peach skin, drawing a shudder out of the younger teen in his lap.

"I… I… uh… I don't… know." Eddy stuttered, his body arching slightly when Kevin sucked at the overly sensitive mating mark, the heat of desire between his legs burning.

"Seems like your hand knew," the jock whispered against Eddy's lips. Eddy mewled, wanting his Alpha to claim his lips and, just when it seemed like he would, he teasingly pulled away. Kevin shifted their position, so there was a decency of space between them, firm hands holding onto narrow hips.

"S-Sorry." The omega whined causing a chuckle to echo from deep within the alpha's chest. Finally, Kevin leaned forward, capturing Eddy's lips in a slow, sensual kiss, a groan of frustration leaving Eddy when the alpha firmly held his hips in place, despite the aching need to feel the jock's hardness pressed against him.

They remained lip-locked for several minutes, Kevin taking his time in mapping out Eddy's mouth. Tongues dueled in a slow dance, small sighs of pleasure escaping both parties. When the need for air became greater, Eddy pulled away, his lips puffy and wet. Just as quickly as he disconnected, he reconnected, lips planting a solid, fleeting kiss to Kevin's lips before he sat back completely.

"How are you?" Kevin asked, a rough thumb gently rubbing over the exposed skin of Eddy's hip. The omega let out a long, frustrated groan, not wanting to have this conversation at this time.

"I'm fine." The omega said, voice heavy with a sigh as he leaned his forehead against one of the jock's sturdy shoulders.

"Eddy," that tone of voice meant Kevin didn't fully believe him.

"I am!" Eddy said quickly, his posture straightening so he could look the red head in the eyes, "It really shook me, but I'm okay."

Kevin hummed, hands leaving the omega's hips to message tense muscles in Eddy's rigid back. He leaned forward, lips lightly planting a kiss to Eddy's forehead.

"You scared the shit out of me last night." The Alpha confessed, his own eyes swimming with too many emotions to read.

"Sorry," Eddy whispered meekly, a slight feeling of shame washing over him.

"Don't be," Kevin soothed, his hand gently tilting Eddy's head up so blue locked onto green, "If anything happens, call me."

Eddy gave a weak nod, a small smile gracing his lips before he leaned forward, placing a delicate peck to the jock's lips. A rumble came from his Alpha as his scent blanketed the air, a heavy hand coming up to hold the nape of Eddy's neck, turning the innocent kiss into a hot and heavy one.

When the duo parted once more, Kevin trailed light kisses across Eddy's jaw to his neck, where he proceed to suck and nibble until a new hickey bloomed over unblemished skin. A gasp from Eddy urged Kevin on, his lips moving further down his neck and over his shoulder until he reached the mating mark. With a free hand holding the fabric of Eddy's shirt out of the way, the jock devoured that particular spot. Teeth grazed sensitive flesh, canines biting down hard enough to bruise before lips suckled on abused flesh.

Eddy moaned lewdly, quick gasps escaping him every few seconds as he bit down on his own lips to silence himself. Arms grasped onto his Alpha, holding on tightly as his mark was ravished, his hips unconsciously sinking down onto Kevin's lap, allowing the hidden erection to press against his weeping hole.

"Oh, fuck… Kev-in." Eddy moaned, feeling those sharp canines dig deeper, his back arching into the sensation, causing his hips to roll against the red head's. Kevin moaned into Eddy's collar, one hand shifting back down to Eddy's hip, before roughly pulling him down as the Alpha ground upwards. Pleasant mewls escaped the younger teen, his body shifting to get more of that undiluted pleasure.

Once Kevin pulled back from the mark, he recaptured the omega's lips, tongues dancing whorishly together in an unheard rhythm. Hips ground together, both parties moaning at the friction.

The sound of heavy footsteps walking the floor above them had Kevin pulling away quickly, uncertain eyes glancing at the still closed bedroom door. Eddy groaned in frustration, his body entirely too turned on now to stop.

"Eddy, your parents." The older teen stated as he tried to pull away slightly, hands lifting Eddy enough so there was space between them.

"Fuck, no! Please, please, please," Eddy whined, his hips canting to try and get more of that delicious friction that brought him instant pleasure.

"Eddy, I'm not gonna fuck you when your parents could just walk in." Kevin stated, tone flat but firm. Eddy groaned, blue eyes snapping open to glare at the Alpha.

"They won't, so please fuck me." Eddy hissed, hands gripping onto the jock's broad shoulders firmly. Kevin shook his head, pulling the omega's hands off him and shifting him off his lap.

Annoyed and fed up, Eddy stood from the bed, his petite frame strutting over to his speakers, setting his IPod to shuffle, and allowed music to filter through the air. He turned, determined eyes locking with Kevin's, before he stormed back over, grabbed the jock's wrist and yanked him up from the bed. Kevin made a noise of surprise as he was roughly pulled into Eddy's bathroom, the small teen yanking him through the threshold before closing and locking the door.

Eddy whirled around, hands on his hips with a brow raised as if asking whether this was suitable or not. Kevin couldn't help the hearty laugh that escaped him, being completely caught off guard by the younger teen.

"Are we gonna fuck or not?" Eddy growled, his irritation beginning to climb when Kevin just continued to laugh.

"You really want me that bad, huh?" Kevin said, amused despite already stepping into Eddy's space. The shorter teen said nothing, simply pulling the collar of Kevin's shirt down, lips locking together once more. Kevin gave a low growl, hands sliding up and down the omega's small frame before shoving it roughly into the door behind them. Eddy moaned softly, a shudder rippling through him as he looped his arms around the Alpha's neck, pulling him closer.

When the jock pulled away, he quickly spun the duo before lifting Eddy up onto the counter, his frame pushing between spread thighs. Kevin rocked into Eddy's lower body at the same time his teeth bit down on the freshly bruised mating mark.

"Oh fuck," Eddy breathlessly moan, his head tilting to the side to give Kevin more room. One hand clutched at the fabric of Kevin's shirt, while the other slapped down against the countertop, providing leverage as he shifted further into the jock's hips. Kevin gave one last powerful suckle to the mating mark before he quickly reached down and pulled the hem of Eddy's entirely too big shirt over his head, throwing the bunched up fabric in a random direction.

The jock leaned down, his mouth pressing open mouth kisses across Eddy's chest before he swallowed a perky nipple, Eddy arched deeply into the suction. The jock's hand played with its brethren, rolling the hard bud between fingers, sending shockwaves of pleasure through his omega. Eddy moaned tampered off into a whimper when it felt like it was too much.

"You're sensitive." Kevin muttered when he pulled away, both thumbs rolling the hard buds simultaneously. Eddy gave another whimper, his hands sliding down the jock's muscles until he reached his clothed erection. Eddy slid a hand into the jock's loose sweatpants, tugging free the Alpha's hardness he desperately needed.

Kevin gave a low groan, lips locking back onto an exposed nipple, teeth gently rolling it around before harshly sucking. Eddy began a slow rhythmic pumping of Kevin's cock, hand milking it as he felt his lower half become wetter.

"Fuck… I need you." Eddy whined, his hand giving a long, slow pump before a thumb swiped over the leaking head, gathering up precum as it drippled out.

"Shit," Kevin moaned out, his hips thrusting into Eddy's grip, "What's gotten into you?"

Eddy said nothing, pushing Kevin away slightly to pull his own shorts down, tossing them to the side, leaving him completely exposed. A low purr came from his Alpha at the sight.

Kevin quickly rid himself of the rest of his clothes before stepping in between wet thighs, his lips devouring his omega's in a rough, passionate kiss. Eddy mewled, his thighs clamping down on the broad hips between him, one hand going back to pumping the jock's thick length while his other slid up his own thigh to caress his wet entrance.

" Fuck," Kevin growled out, his inner Alpha slipping as he watched his omega play with himself in a desperate attempt to ease the pulsing need in him.

Eddy shuddered at the tone, his own inner omega pleading with his Alpha to just take him already. Kevin's hands gripped down on Eddy's hips, pulling him forward enough so that his ass hung off the counter and was being held up by the jock's own hips.

Kevin traced a hand in between Eddy's thighs, fingers coming up to rub the tight, wet hole of his omega. Without hesitation, he slipped a finger in, up to his knuckle before he quickly fingered Eddy. The omega moaned lewdly, his hips rocking onto the finger inside of him, chasing that feeling of pleasure.

"Oh, fuck… Oh, fuck." Eddy whined as a second finger quickly joined its twin, both pumping in and out of him at a steady rhythm. Those fingers twisted, turning just enough to hammer his sweet spot, causing Eddy to throw his head back with a gasp and slick to drench Kevin's hand.

"Please, please… Need you. Fuck! God, please!" Eddy begged, a strangled moan choking his vocal chords as Kevin purposefully pounded his sweet spot mercilessly.

"You beg so well." Kevin hissed, sinking his fingers into Eddy before continuously stroking the other's prostate, "Beg more."

"Kevin! Oh… ah… Please." Eddy sobbed, his hips forced to still so only his Alpha controlled his pleasure. Kevin purred deeply, removing his fingers. Using the slick that coated his hand, the jock stroked his stiff cock, lubing it up.

Eddy balanced his frame on his hands as he spread his legs wider, one foot catching on the doorknob to hold him open, the other teetering on the edge of the sink. The blunt head of Kevin's cock pressed against his entrance, rubbing little circles before pushing in.

Eddy gave a low moan that fell into a silent scream, back arching and hips tilting to sink that cock deeper into his body. Kevin kept pushing, a shiver coursing through him as he felt Eddy's walls spread to accommodate his length. Shuddering breaths, more slick gushing down his length and then he was seated, balls deep, cock swallowed whole by Eddy's needy body.

Kevin wasted no time, his hips thrusting in a slow, steady rhythm, cockhead pushing against Eddy's spot. Eddy mewled and whined, his hips moving to match the Alpha's.

"Fuck… like that… Oh god… harder." Eddy gasped, body on fire from the feel of that thick length spearing him open time and time again. Kevin complied, hips pushing in harder, the sound of skin slapping together sounding erotically loud in the bathroom.

Kevin gave his own, low moans as Eddy tightened around his cock, the wet heat clinging to him just right. Hearing Eddy's desperate pleas stoked the fire of his inner Alpha, the beast pleased with how his little omega was responding. He kept his thrusts slow, drawn out, but hard enough to send shockwaves of pleasure up Eddy's spine.

Kevin leaned forward, mouth capturing Eddy's as he swallowed some of the breathy moans. Eddy kissed him back enthusiastically, though sloppy, as he concentrated on moving his hips in time with Kevin's.

" So good… Fuck, you're so big," Eddy moaned, head tilting back as his eyes slipped closed, mind awash with the pleasure coursing through his veins. Kevin shuddered, his own arousal peaking with Eddy's muttered words.

"That feel good, baby?" Kevin hissed into Eddy's ear, his mouth nibbling on the lobe lightly.

" Yes," the omega outright mewled, his legs getting the leverage they needed to properly bounce back on Kevin's cock, his mouth dropping open in a silent moan, " Fuck! Yes, yes, yes, yes… so good."

Kevin adjusted his grip, one arm helping to hold Eddy up while the other dragged his hips to meet his thrusts. Eddy gave a loud moan as Kevin quickened his pace slightly, watching as Eddy's tight rim stretched around his length, over and over again. More slick slipped out of Eddy, soaking both of their lower bodies until they glistened in the light.

Eddy shifted his balance, placing one of his arms more centered so he could use his other hand to reach between them, fist enclosing around his own aching member. Kevin snarled, his hand batting the omega's away, his lips placing a punishing kiss on swollen lips.

"No!" Kevin hissed, his thrusts turning slightly harder, watching as Eddy bounced on his lap, "You're gonna cum from my cock and my cock only."

It was a command and Eddy absolutely revelled in it, his body arching as he forced Kevin harder into himself, hips rolling with each thrust to maximize his own greedy pleasure; the blunt head of Kevin's length pushing wonderfully against his slick-drenched walls.

"Yeah," Eddy said breathlessly, eyes locking onto darkened greens in a challenge, "Gonna make me cum on your cock?"

Kevin released a growl, his inner alpha taking the bait. His hips quickened in pace, mouth moving to suck harshly at the still sensitive mating bite.

" Oh… fuck!" Eddy gave a prolonged moan, his own hips moving to match the Alpha's speed, "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!... Oh god! There, there, there, there… Fuck, right there."

"That your spot, baby?" Kevin asked as he left the mark but not before sinking his teeth into it once more. The Alpha knew the answer but relished the way his omega pleaded with him.

"Want me to fuck it harder?" Kevin was positively preening, enjoying the way the younger teen was coming undone around him. Eddy gave a needy sob, his head nodding. Kevin shifted them once more, with Eddy leaning on his forearms on the counter, his head hanging back, throat exposed; Kevin put him on his back, hips still hanging off nicely to have his way with. The new angle pushed Kevin's cock deeper, harder against Eddy's spot.

"Oh, fuck! Oh, fuck! Oh… Shi-Yes!" Eddy sang as he was used, Kevin pounding into his body in a harsh, steady rhythm. Just when Eddy got comfortable with the new pace, Kevin changed it again, pushing in hard to the hilt, pausing for a few seconds before pulling out and slamming back in. Eddy moaned whorishly, tears of pleasure pricking at his eyes as he took everything Kevin gave him.

Just a little more…

"Please," Eddy begged, the tense feeling pulled far too taunt, the bubble expanding but unable to pop, "Kev-in please."

"What is it?" Kevin whispered against Eddy's lips, his mouth capturing it as more tortured moans spilled out.

"Close," Eddy whined, his hips trying to force his Alpha's member into him faster, "Please."

"Tell me what you want." Kevin growled, enjoying the way Eddy sobbed his pleasure, tears streaking down his cheeks from the intensity.

"M-Ma-ke… Me- Ah. Fuck!... Cum." Eddy whined again, feeling the deep shudder that went through his Alpha's frame.

" Beg." Kevin's Alpha demanded, gravely voice commanding.

"Please," Eddy begged, wet eyes staring into lust-addled ones, " Alpha!"

Kevin's carefully constrained control snapped, his hips pounding at a brutal pace. Eddy could only hold on, feeling that tight ball of pleasure expand until it was wound too tight, like a rubber band ready to snap. Every powerful thrust hammered his prostate, sending electrifying pleasure through every muscle, mind swamped with the feeling.

" Cum." Another powerful command to the weeping omega from that hidden beast. Eddy felt another powerful thrust into his malleable body, and then another. On the third he came, his body arching deeply, slick pouring from his hole, as a strangled moan filled the air around them. The pleasure pulled from his core, encompassing every appendage in a mind-numbing tingle that left pleasant aftershocks twitching his muscles.

When Eddy came down, he could feel his Alpha' weak thrusts into him, his tight body nearly trapping that thick member within his wet walls… still so incredibly hard. Eddy whined, unhappy that the jock didn't follow him over the edge. He wanted to feel the red head come in him.

Instead, Kevin pulled out of Eddy, watching as copious amount of slick dribbled out and down the omega's thighs. He set Eddy down on wobbly legs, his body pulling the omega down until Kevin rested on his back against the linoleum floor, upper body barely cushioned by the bath rug. Eddy followed him, his knees spreading on either side of the jock's broad hips.

Kevin reached below him, his hand pumping his own cock back to peak hardness before he tilted Eddy's hips, sinking into him once more. Eddy mewled, head thrown back as his hips automatically rolled against the red head's, body shuddering in almost too much pleasure as that blunt head scrapped against sensitive walls.

Eddy continued, his hips rolling and rocking against Kevin's, keeping that thick length mostly buried inside him, but forcing the head to push against all of the right spots. It continued in much of the same way, Eddy rolling his hips downwards, shuddering as his overly sensitive spot was pushed against, while Kevin bucked up into him, reburying his length into the still tight heat.

" Kevin," came the omega's cry, body willingly bouncing down on the cock buried within him, his hips grinding for a moment before lifting again, "Oh shit… Ah.. Fuck, yes… Alpha!"

Kevin watched with rapt attention, the site of his omega crumbling absolutely beautiful to watch. He made sure to hilt himself just right, so Eddy ground that thick head against something so incredibly intense.

"Oh, fuck!" Eddy cried, his legs trembling but still faithfully moving on the length buried in him, "God! Kevin… I think you're fucking my womb."

That drew a possessive growl from the Alpha, his hips hammering upwards, Eddy's hands quickly slapping down on the jock's chest for grounding and assistance, "Want me to stop?"

Eddy couldn't think, his mind scarcely able of comprehending Kevin's words. With sob of pleasure, the omega shook his head, "Don't you dare! Don't stop! Don't stop!"

Minutes ticked by, both Alpha and Omega climbed higher and higher toward a shared ecstasy. Eventually, feet planted firmly against the floor, Kevin's hips slamming upwards into Eddy's, the omega canting his hips so the head of his Alpha's length battered his quivering cervix, leaving Eddy gasping as he moaned at the intensity .

"Fuck, Kevin!" Eddy cried, his forearms resting against the ground around Kevin's head, "M'gonna cum."

"Yeah, baby?" Kevin groaned, unable to stop his own rapidly approaching peak, balls drawing tight in preparation, "Cum with me."

He had said it so breathlessly, his motions stopping long enough to flip them over, before hips powered into Eddy's. The omega cried out, his orgasm just within reach, only spilling over when he felt those powerful canines pierce his skin and the cock release stream after stream of seed into in willing body.

Eddy, himself, came a second time, his loud, pornographic moan quickly muffled with Kevin's lips, his womb shuddering under the effects of his second orgasm.

Alpha and Omega collapsed, though Alpha was conscious enough of the precious cargo beneath him, both rushing to catch their breath. Kevin lazily lapped at the trickle of crimson leaking from his bite. Eddy's body went completely boneless, his thighs spread obscenely to the sides, arms laying lifelessly above his head. Kevin managed to hold himself onto his forearms, keeping most of his weight off the pregnant omega beneath him.

Lips drew together in lazy patterns, some lingering and some fleeting. Kevin had his strength returned first, pulling his softening member out of Eddy's sopping entrance, watching as slick and cum pooled out as he sat back on his legs.

"You good, baby?" Kevin said, watching as Eddy haphazardly waved a hand, a mumbled, incoherent string of words coming from bruised lips. Kevin chuckled lightly, crawling on all fours over the pleasure-drunk omega.

"Babe." Kevin said, lightly tapping Eddy on the cheek to try and focus his attention, when it didn't work, he tried again, a little harder. Eddy gave a soft little 'hum', hazy eyes opening to softly glare at the jock.

"Leave me alone," Eddy half heartedly hissed, even though a playful smile pulled at his lips, "M'basking in the afterglow."

"Do you want to be wiped down or do you want a shower?" Kevin asked, right hand firmly holding Eddy's chin.

"Wha?" Eddy mumbled, his brain still not quite capable of stringing together sentences.

"Shower or wipe down?" Kevin asked again, another chuckle coming out as he proceeded to move into a crouched position.

"Shower!" Eddy finally said, eyes focusing more clearer on the Alpha next to him, "You're gonna hafta help me."

Kevin did just that, pulling Eddy into a standing position, one arm helping to hold him up while the other reached over to turn on the shower. As the water warmed to the right temperature, Eddy managed to stand on trembling legs, his body pulling in a long stretch, a sated smile on his lips.

"Mmm… that was good." Eddy said as he turned to Kevin, the red head giving a smirk in return, "Would have been even better if you knot me."

Kevin shook his, slightly exasperated with the smiling omega, "Well… you gotta be in heat…"

Eddy pouted though he knew the red head was telling the truth. Feeling the sticky mixture of slick and cum dripping down his legs had Eddy shuddering, "Should do it again."

Kevin gave a warm laugh, head shaking in disbelief before he pulled the dirty omega into the shower with him, directing the younger teen under the fall of water.

"Perv. Let's get you clean and fed first." Kevin muttered softly, placing an innocent peck on Eddy's lips before he started to clean his omega.

Twenty minutes later and both teens were showered, wrapped in large, fluffy towels. Kevin began to pickup the discarded articles of clothing, putting his clothes in a pile while tossing Eddy's things to him.

Kevin was the first one dressed, Eddy not far behind him. Eddy gave another large, long stretch, a hand coming to rest on the slight curve of his abdomen. Kevin sat on the toilet, swiping through his phone while Eddy tousled his locks into something semi-presentable, the bathroom door open to release the pent up steam.

"Oh." Kevin said, his eyes reading over something on his screen.

"Oh, what?" Eddy asked, growing frustrated as a single strand of hair wouldn't stay in place.

"You're what, 15 weeks?" Kevin asked, to which Eddy nodded, "Says here that you get a libido boost."

That cocky smirk made him roll his eyes before he flashed a smirk of his own, "Lucky you."

Kevin laughed.

---

20 weeks

Eddy's nerves felt jittery, his entire being a ball of nervous energy and restless anxiety, his thoughts a rambling mess of curiosity and excitement. Today was the day, the one where he found out if he was having a boy or a girl. Truthfully speaking, he didn't care what he was having, not really.

The reason for Eddy's apprehensive excitement was not due to his impending anatomy scan, but more so to the fact that Kevin, yes! his Alpha, had agreed to go to the appointment with him. Eddy's mother wouldn't be able to make the appointment, something she was not entirely too pleased with, but Kevin had stepped in and offered to go in her place.

That's where Eddy was now, waiting for the jock to come home. He could see the thing rolling into the cul-de-sac, paint shiny in the sunlight, enough so that it hurt his eyes. Eddy stood from his seated position that had given him the perfect vantage point for keeping an eye out for the wayward Alpha. With a bright, toothy smile, Eddy began to gather his things and leave the house.

A few moments later, Eddy was just closing his front door, keys setting the lock in place. He hurried across the shared yard, frame nearly bouncing with each step as he stopped just beside the jock's sporty vehicle. Kevin was no where in site, but he assumed the red head was just putting his things from school away.

Minutes ticked by, Eddy growing impatient as the window to get to his appointment on time dwindled by the second. Ten minutes later, with still no sign of his Alpha, Eddy stormed over to the jock's front door, teeth gritting together as he pounded a fist on the front door.

Kevin eventually opened the door, expression completely perplexed when he took in the silently fuming omega, "Eddy?"

"Yeah, it's me!" Eddy snarled, fists balled up in the pockets of his light jacket. In the background, he could here shuffling, a soft spoken voice and then silence.

"What are you doing here?" Kevin asked, his lean frame stepping over the threshold of his house, door slightly ajar behind him.

"Are you fucking serious?" Eddy hissed, eyes narrowing in irritation.

"What?" Kevin said, a little more forcibly this time, his face scrunching in his own annoyance.

"Do you seriously not remember what today is?" Eddy interrogated, hands out of his pockets and animatedly jester-ing at this point.

"No! What?" Kevin asked, a hand swiping through his red hair in clear frustration. Eddy couldn't help the pain that laced through his chest.

"Hint hint, it's a very important doctor's appointment," Eddy finally offered, his hands making small continuation gestures, as if that would help his Alpha remember, "20 weeks…?"

"Spit it out already, I don't have time for this." The jock pleaded, a sigh escaping him as a hand came up to pinch the bridge of his nose. Eddy was stunned, a look of pure, unabashed, bewildered disappointment. Surely the jock couldn't have forgotten.

"It's the anatomy appointment," Eddy whispered in clarity, blue eyes still wide in disbelief, "You're taking me."

The jock let out a loud curse, followed by a string of explicative profanity. He turned to the omega before him, his face a mess of emotions, "Shit! That's today?"

Eddy let out of a short, choppy chuckle in astonishment, "Duh! I've only been reminding you for a week now!"

Kevin released another string of profanity, his hands scrapping down his face as a long, drawn out groan escaped his lips. Suddenly, apologetic green eyes were starring into his own exasperated blue ones.

"Eddy," Kevin started, hesitantly, and that tone of voice left Eddy feeling cold, "I can't go."

It felt like a slap to his face, the sting almost as sharp as the feeling of being dunked in ice cold water. Eddy made a disbelieving noise, and then another, followed by a scoff of rejection.

"What? I don't… What?" he could only ramble, his mind a fleeting concoction of hurt and abandoned omega.

"Sorry, Eddy. I'm not going." Kevin said more firmly, his eyes blanketing into an aloof, almost distant, expression. Eddy could feel his happy little bubble bursting with each nasty prick of the jock's words.

"But… You… You said…" Eddy stuttered, his soul aching as he felt like he was on a completely different continent than his Alpha.

"Look, Eddy; I just… Well… I-" Kevin said, fumbling for words that wouldn't come. Eddy wilted further, unable to process the amount of hurt he felt. His scent of distressed omega choked the air.

"I don't understand. What the hell changed?" the omega sneered in disbelief, his pain and anguish slipping into his tone.

Just when Eddy thought it couldn't get worse, the door behind the jock was pulled wide open by a perfectly manicured hand. Eddy's words died on his lips as the tall, graceful figure of Nazz walked out, her teal eyes raking over the duo in mild curiosity. Her shiny lips spread out in a hesitant smile, a slim hand coming up to brush a long strand of golden blonde hair from her face.

"Kevin?" she questioned, her frame stepping completely into the fading sunlight, "You ready to go?"

Eddy was left breathless, heart hammering just behind his ribcage. He could feel the overwhelming flood of emotions, the hot prick of tears behind his wide eyes. He opened his mouth to say something, only to close it immediately, not knowing whether to rage or break.

"In a minute Nazz; just wait for me in the car," Kevin said, his body briefly twisting over to look back at the blonde. Nazz gave a dubious smile, heels clicking against the pavement as she did as she was told.

"What… the… fuck?!" Eddy was seething, his voice low but dangerous, poison seeping into every word.

"Eddy, not now, okay?" Kevin said, his tone exasperated, eyes rolling skyward.

"Are you fucking her?" A finger was thrust in the direction of Nazz's person, innocently waiting in the closed up car. Kevin blanched at the statement, eyes wide.

"What?" the red head asked, his expression darkening.

"Is that why you won't go? Too busy putting your dick in everything that moves?" Eddy couldn't stop, not now; the pain suffocating his soul was far too much to bare.

"That's enough!" Kevin barked, his eyes narrowing in his own building anger.

"Fuck you, 'that's enough'! So glad you're ditching me on a very important day to go who-the-fuck-knows-where with that fucking hussy." Eddy hissed, his teeth gritting in an effort to stop the tears that wanted to fall.

" Enough!" the jock commanded, his inner beast bleeding into his voice, causing Eddy to unexpectedly tense up. A minute went by, neither speaking a word before Eddy allowed a small whine to leave him.

"Don't," he started to say, a few tears slipping down his cheeks, "Don't fucking use your Alpha voice to tame me."

"I didn't…" Kevin let out a long, suffering sigh, "Can we talk about this later?"

"No! We're talking about it now!" Eddy sneered, tearstains marking his skin. Kevin let out a loud groan of frustration, before he threw his hands up in surrender.

"Eddy…"

"No!" the omega immediately cut Kevin off, his shuddering breaths sliding into soft, hiccup sobs, "You have to choose."

Kevin looked alarmed, his own frame tensing as the omega gestured between himself and the girl in the car.

"Eddy, it's not that simple," Kevin was pulling at his hair now, angry, frustrated, and downright fed up.

"Choose!" Another hiccupping sob, the tears no longer being restrained. Kevin looked torn for a moment, but it was gone as quickly as it came.

"Ed-"

"Choose!"

"Enough, Eddy. You can't make me do that. I was dating Nazz long before you came around." Kevin finally uttered, steel tone darkening his voice.

A bitter chuckle as storming blue eyes glared at the older teen, "Oh! So now she's your girlfriend. Huh? So what was she when we were making love?"

"That's just it, Eddy! We weren't… we were just fucking; that's it. I made no commitment to you." Kevin growled, dark eyes glaring at the omega, nose scrunching as that sour note of pained omega grew more potent.

"Oh, really? Maybe you forgot that you fucking. Marked. Me!" Eddy forces out, a sob choking his words, hands harshly slamming against the jock's chest, pushing the Alpha back a few steps, "I'm your god damn mate!"

" You're not!" that deep, gravely tone again, like rocks clamoring over each other. Eddy stood for a moment in stunned silence, tears streaming down his cheeks, frustrated cries just barely silenced by gritting teeth.

"You and me… we're just… fuck… I'm with Nazz…" Kevin continued, voice aloof as he went to turn around.

"Fuck you." Eddy cried, knees weak as his Alpha attempted to walk out of his life. With an agonizing cry, Eddy stepped forward and slapped the Alpha hard. Kevin froze for a moment, eyes widening in surprise, before he instinctively shoved the omega away from him. The force had Eddy stumbling before he hit the ground.

Eddy was panicking now, his mind not knowing what to do. This was his Alpha, his mate. This was the father of his child, his first child, and the only one he wanted for potential others.

But this… this raging, hellish fiend in front of him wasn't his. It wasn't even close. This version made him feel things that left him weeping, broken and abandoned. This man… This demon was hurting him, in so many ways. This bastardize version of his Alpha was a faceless stranger he didn't want to acknowledge.

This wasn't his Alpha.

Eddy sat on the cold ground, sobs pouring out his mouth as the acidic tang of hurt omega lingered in the air. A hand came up to stifle his cries, body hunching over in grief.

"Why?" he managed to squeeze out between his breakdown, "You said… you…" Eddy couldn't carry on, his voice completely failing him as he let out a piercing cry.

"Shit! Eddy! I'm sorr-" Kevin started as he reached out for the omega, but a sharp right hook to his cheek had him stumbling backwards before falling to the concrete below. A pained hiss slipped through his teeth as he could taste his own blood in his mouth. Pissed but dazed, Kevin rolled onto his back to see what just happened.

Towering over his prone form was an absolutely menacing looking Ed, eyes soulless depths that promised pain and suffering. His lips were pulled back into a challenging snarl, sharp canines flashing in a warning.

Just behind Ed, in his great shadow, was Double D, his hands protectively wrapped around their companion, an ugly look of disdain on his face. He positioned his lean frame so that Eddy was standing just behind him, but still close enough to hold.

Eddy looked lost, his eyes a hollow vacancy as tears continued to pour down. One of his shaky hands reached up to hold onto Double D, his other frozen in mid-reach towards Ed.

Kevin shifted his position, moving to sit up, only to be roughly stomped into the ground. His eyes traced that crude covered boot up it's length to the it's owner, who was growling down at him.

" Stay down." Ed commanded, his boot pressing deeper into the jock's chest, grinding him into the rough pavement below. Kevin, although thoroughly pissed off, chose to wisely not move again.

It wasn't until the sound of a car door slamming shut, a very alarmed feminine voice shouting Kevin's name, that the scene began to move. Double D lightly grabbed Ed by the arm, the alpha snapping his attention to his friend, face falling into one of utter concern for the shortest of their trio.

Ed gently took ahold of Eddy's listless frame, lifting the pregnant teen into his arms with ease. The trio began to wander away, only for Edd to stop mid-step, turn toward the now sitting Alpha, his words cold.

"Stay the hell away from Eddy."

It left Kevin floored to hear the mild manner teen utter such cutting words in a voice darker than he could imagine. Kevin said nothing as the trio of Eds disappeared down the street and into Edd's house.

"Kevin?" her timid voice brought back to reality, the jock grimacing before spitting a mouthful of blood onto the ground. He stood, hands brushing his clothes before brushing past the femme fetal.

"Let's go, Nazz."

---

Kevin's eyes shifted from his barely touched plate to the girl sitting across from him. She was gorgeous. Long legs gave way to a slim frame curved in all the right places. Her body was held tight by her simple, black dress; her ample bosom pushed up in a magnificent display of cleavage. Her long blonde locks were swept behind her, pulled uptight in a French braid. Her beautifully plump lips smiled at him as she coyly took a sip of her beverage.

She was breathtaking; had always been that way since childhood. Her rapidly developing frame plagued many of the school boys' fantasies; many an afternoon lost to their daydreams of her.

He had been one of those faithful boys, clamoring over himself at every available opportunity to try and impress her. He devoted himself to the worship of her, practically laid at her feet, begging to be used by her.

Over time, it had worked; that gorgeous, blonde bombshell giving herself over to him. He held on tightly, afraid that if he loosened his grip even a little, she would move on, another calling her those sweet little pet names she loved so much.

She never did stray though, her feet firmly planted by his side, always with him. She stayed, even when he strayed, his being lost in the pleasure of his pesky omega neighbor. She hadn't been happy, not at all; but she understood that instincts had influenced his actions… at least, they had the first time.

Every time he dipped his toe in the forbidden fountain that was Eddy's omegan desire; she stood there, waiting for him to make his way back. He did, every single time. And every time, he came back on his knees, his entire being groveling at her feet, sin tainted lips kissing her perfectly manicured toes until her ire eased. He would then devote himself to her, entirely; every move, every action done for her: to make her smile, to make her laugh, to hear her love. It would stay that way, until temptation lead him astray once more.

Kevin hated himself for it; despised that his inner beast had become so entangled in the coy, little minx that was Eddy's inner omega. There had to be something wrong with him; no one in their right mind would willingly give up the Heaven sent angel that was Nazz.

At first, Kevin was sure that it was just his natural biology, his inner beast looking to lay claim to a meek omega. After all, that's what Alphas did; that's what they eternally yearned for. Kevin had thought, that because Nazz, herself, was an Alpha; it was just his beast's way of compensating… Get it out of his system, so to speak.

Yet, it kept happening, and each time, he ran out of excuses to tell himself. Nazz just stopped being that one and only; her beauty beyond comparison but he found himself doing just that. He noticed how Eddy's eyes lit up when he simply existed in his space, the twitch of those cocky lips when he knew he was driving the red head wild.

He also noticed how Nazz had lost that ethereal glow about her; the angels no longer singing at her entrance, her scent losing that enticing appeal to it. She slowly slipped from dream girl to plain Jane in the matter of weeks. No matter how hard he fought, Kevin couldn't put her back on the pedestal he had so delicately placed her.

Kevin hated that the love he once held for her so quickly disbursed, fluttering away so quickly he hadn't even been sure it had been there in the first place. Kevin was left torn between two lives he had built; his conscience supplying him with various scenarios of a life with each of his partners. He had never expected the one with Eddy to seem so alluring, so perfect.

So now Kevin sat, his mask of devotion slipping as he watched the woman across from him reveal the world's wonders, with him not paying a bit of attention. He, of course, nodded here or there, made a noise of acknowledgement when he thought appropriate.

His mind, though, was several miles away, with a collapsed, truly broken omega; his piercing song of woe splitting him in half. He had done that; played so carelessly with the omega that he ended up destroying him. It had been horrible, his inner beast furious with himself; how could he so callously throw away a being so perfect? The missing piece of his halved self.

Kevin gave his girlfriend a shaky smile as she looked at him. Some small part of him wanted to be devoted to her again, after all, they held two years worth of wonderful memories. They had laughed, they had fought, they made up; he had been her first, a moment he still cherished. But, it was all vanishing, and those good times together were now fond memories. Those fond memories were beginning to fade.

But, as the jock thought about it, he had been Eddy's first as well. Despite holding both of their innocence in his hands, he found himself valuing Eddy's gift more; worshipping it even. It became an altar in which he prostrated himself, time and time again, one he wanted to continue to beseech too.

Their meal was done and over now, his beauty hanging off his arm as she flirtatiously swayed her slender hips. A kiss of lust on her lips, those vibrant teal eyes begging for it.

Who was he to deny this sovereign being?

They came together in a hot clash of tongues and teeth, mouths seeking to devour one another as pleasure sparked between their lips. He had left her breathless, those pretty lips opening to offer up sinful prayers as her body danced to his puppetry.

He had her aching, begging for more; that little, black dress tossed somewhere over his shoulder, landing haphazardly on his bedroom floor. His hands cupped her bountiful breasts, rough, calloused fingers kneading at her tender flesh. She arched for him, sang for him as he continued to play her.

Yet, all of her willingness, all of her naked body and wet cunt did nothing for him. The fire she felt was barely a smolder in his own core.

It was all wrong; so very, very wrong.

Kevin pulled away, leaving his woman gasping, gorgeous long body stretched invitingly over his bed. He felt ashamed, humiliated even; but her chorus of pleasure failed him. He sat back, his eyes looking everywhere but her.

"Kevin?" she had questioned him, her lithe hands pulling his sheets to her in some semblance of modesty, her body following his, pressing close for that warmth she so craved.

He pulled away completely, half naked body standing from his bed as he set about pacing his room in his frustration. He had thought he was where he wanted to be, but the longer he remained in that stagnant environment, he found that he wished he was elsewhere.

He wanted Eddy; missed Eddy. He missed that tantalizing scent of soft sandalwood and sea breeze, with just the slightest hint of amber and vanilla. It lingered in every pore, tortured his soul with the remnants left behind. He wanted cocky bravado and seductive vulnerability. He wanted all of Eddy, by his side; missed him in the absence of his presence.

She stared at him, long and hard, a shadow passing over her features for a fleeting moment, but she knew, she understood. She was the perfect woman, all hot body and passionate love, but not for him, not anymore.

He tried to say something comforting, but he knew that whatever came out of his mouth now would only scar her, so he kept quiet. He felt her hand placed so gently on his shoulder, a ghost of a comforting gesture. He couldn't look at her, not when she wanted closer but he was drifting further away.

"It's Eddy, isn't it." That wasn't a question and she wasn't asking. She knew; despite being blonde, she was far from simple. A hefty sigh escaped her smeared lips, his green orbs gazing solemnly at the ground, not because of what he was losing, but because of what he had already lost.

She placed a fleeting kiss to his cheek before she stood, slipping back into that delicate dress before disappearing into the night. Kevin groaned, hands scrubbing at his face in the familiarity; his soul aching for it's other half. But he had chased him away; left him broken on the floor as he stomped on his omega's dreams.

The Alpha lay back, his eyes gazing unseeingly at his ceiling, the memory of Eddy plaguing his thoughts so viciously. He wanted his omega back, but now he felt forever out of reach.

A loud curse, his fist punching the springy mattress before his body rolled, a frustrated, searing yell falling upon his pillow as he sought to muffle his suffering. He didn't deserve reprieve, nor would he ask for it. He had damned himself to his own hell, and here he would forever faithfully linger.

Then he got the call, the one that choked his air and shattered his soul; leaving him wailing as the call went silent. He had so little time, but he would fix this, had to; needed to.

---

22 weeks

He had watched his days pass in silence, him starring but not seeing, his mind a thousand miles away. He felt suffocated under all of his grief, choked for air as he fought against the tide that pulled him. He had wanted to fight, kick and scream, power his way through this weathered storm; he could do none of that.

Those pretty little dreams that danced in his head now serve as a morbid reminder of what he never really had; not for real. Sure, he was able to tempt his Alpha into taking a bite out of his forbidden fruit, but that damn beast would always crawl away; leaving him like a mistress of the night.

He felt so trampled on, so used, and he couldn't blame anyone but himself. He saw those billowing, red flags flying, heard the siren of warning, but he ignored them, looked the other way instead. He chose to see only what he wanted, not what actually was. Now, he was suffering for it.

Eddy had cried many tears, the somber sound of his own muffled sobs a familiar tune that played on repeat. He wasn't sure if anyone else could hear his pitiful song, but he couldn't stop. Not now, not when he was so thoroughly broken.

He was the fool, was he not? He happily pranced around until he caught his Alpha's fleeting attention, if only to have it for a moment. He held it tightly, mingled the strings of their souls together, only to constantly watch his hard work unravel. His Alpha abandoning him once more. But that had been okay, because his Alpha always came back… Until he didn't, until he deemed Eddy a memory worth losing.

He had been deluding his self, always willing to look through his rose tinted glasses, just so he could have a taste of that paradise. And where did that get him? Defiled, unwanted, bastardized… He would be just another vile statistic in his schoolbook's pages: an unwed, singular mother, absent of hope and left without dreams.

While he had felt pain in his own loss, he couldn't put into words of how he felt at his child's loss. The child that had been bred of sin and temptation, that had formed from lust. His own misery would become his child's, a child left wondering where it had all gone so wrong.

The answer would always turn back to him. He had deluded himself into thinking Kevin actually cared for him, cherished him in some fond way. How he had been so stupid?

But he had to save face, try and keep the fragmented mask in place, if only for his sanity. Most days, he was thankful to just be breathing. He couldn't live, no, that will had been broken; but he did his best to exist, succeeding only due to his unborn child. It, at least, deserved a chance.

He sat on his overly worn couch, eyes blankly staring at the wonders and stars of their world displayed on vivid picture. It was meant to be beautiful, breathtaking even; Eddy only realized how incredibly insignificant he truly was.

He could feel mirrored eyes on him, always felt that motherly watch these days. She was usually quiet but always there, ever present in the hopes to catch a glimpse of the old Eddy… He hadn't the heart to tell her that that fool was long gone.

He felt her come to him, plump body sinking down next to his. He knew she reached for him, but he turned it away. This was not something a mother could fix, no matter how much he wished she could.

She had tried to talk to him, many times with no success. His lips forever sealed, defenses up, walls secured. She poked and prodded, worried herself sick when he skipped appointments, stayed in bed, or slept all day. He was done, however; tired even, he was going to allow what was willed to come to pass.

Bless her heart for she so tried.

She tentatively reached over, hand threading through thick, black locks, a warm, yet sad, smile on her lips.

"Eddy," she began, her voice soft and light. She watched as eyes as blue as her own turned toward her, "What's wrong?"

Nothing, yet everything at the same time. Eddy wouldn't voice that, wouldn't dare let someone else into his pool of suffering, so he simply shrugged his shoulders, eyes snapping back to the show he wasn't even watching. Nancy grimaced but was determined, her body moving to kneel in front of Eddy. The omega's dead eyes just looked through her.

"Something is bothering you, something big. Tell me so I can help you." She coaxed, her hands coming up to gentle cradle Eddy's head in her hands.

"I don't want to talk about it." Eddy answered, voice hoarse from misuse. She gave a heavy sigh, pleading eyes looking deeply into her son's.

"You may not want to, but talking about it may make you feel better." She began again, only to receive a shaky smile along with a shake of denial.

'Because you can't fix what was never there to begin with.'

"Okay," she sadly whispered, her frame standing again, "Will you at least eat something?"

Seeing Eddy ready to say no, she quickly added, "I'm sure your baby needs it."

Eddy gave a suffering sigh before nodding his head. Nancy went over to the cupboards and rummaged through them, picking out a couple of protein bars and a bag of apple chips. She placed a small handful of the chips on a plate, along with the two unwrapped protein bars. She proceeded to carry the plate and an Ensure she grabbed from the fridge over to Eddy, gently handing him the plate and setting the Ensure next to him on the stand.

Eddy looked down at his food, a frown on his face. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy the offered foods; he just didn't have an appetite, not now, not anymore. He lifted one of the bars, sniffed it, before taking a bite, his chewing slow and begrudging.

As he ate, Eddy gently placed a hand on the small swell of his stomach, his baby bump far more noticeable but still easily hidden underneath baggy clothing. He could feel the baby move, feel it turning and twisting within him. It should have made him smile, but it didn't. It only reminded him how they both were unwanted.

Eddy managed to finish one of the protein bars, half of the chips, and his Ensure before he pushed his plate away. Nancy gave her son a soft smile, placing a gentle kiss on his forehead.

When she made her way into the kitchen to clean his plate, she heard her son stand and walk towards his room. Eddy's mother gave a tight smile, before she watched her son disappear behind his bedroom door.

The sound of tumbling pulled her from her thoughts, her head swiveling around her to look for the source of the noise. She called out to her husband, who appeared from their bedroom, a look of perplexity on his own face.

Nancy frowned, her voice calling out for Eddy but received no answer. With quick steps, she hurried to the stairs leading down to her son's bedroom. She screamed in horror, her body bounding down the stairs to get to her son.

"Eddy!" she cried out, panic lacing her voice as she fell to the ground next to him, her hands turning him over onto his back, tears welling as she took in his closed eyes.

"Eddy!" she screamed again, though it did nothing to stir the omega from his state of unconsciousness. She wailed up at her husband, begging for help. She sat by her child's side as the sound of sirens drew nearer.

---

She sat in the waiting room crying, her body an insufferable mess of choke sobs and salty tears. Gerald had been her support through all of it, only stepping away to call their oldest son with what little updates they had. They hadn't been told much at this point, just directed to this room and told to wait.

Her body would snap to attention anytime she heard footsteps coming down the hall, eyes watching as personnel after personnel walked by. She wanted to scream, demand the next person who came by to tell them something, but she knew it wouldn't help. So she sat in silence, her tears welling up until they spilled over.

After hours of sitting there, a disgruntled doctor came into the waiting room, his eyes scanning the folder in his hands before looking over the occupants. He called their name, and Nancy immediately rushed over, Gerald muttering something on his call before hanging up and joining them.

"How is he? Is he okay? What happened?" Nancy fired off, mind moving a thousand miles per hour but her mouth refusing to catch up. The doctor held up a hand, silencing her rapid-fire interrogation.

"He's been placed into an induced coma for the time being." Nancy wailed, her legs nearly buckling under her as she soaked in the news.

"What made him collapse in the first place?" Gerald spoke up, his thick arm holding his wife up. The doctor said nothing for a moment, eyes scanning over the chart.

"We're not positive as to the cause, but my team and I agree that his pregnancy mixed with stress and a lack of nutrients possibly caused his tumble." The doctor answer, watching as Nancy sobbed harder but Gerald's eyes widen in surprise.

"What? Pregnancy? He's not…" Gerald paused, looking to his wife who was trying to calm herself.

"He is. His ultrasound and medical records indicate he's 22 weeks." The doctor confirmed, Gerald backing off, his body slumping into the nearest chair in shock.

"How's the baby?" Nancy asked as she managed to pull herself together, a damp napkin dapping at her eyes, smudging her already cascading makeup further.

"The fetus appears to be fine, no noticeable injuries from the fall. We're going to keep Eddy under for another 24 hours before waking him." The doctor informed, his eyes glancing back and forth between the child's parents. Nancy nodded her head in understanding, tears welling up once more.

"Is Eddy's mate present?" the doctor asked, to which both Gerald and Nancy looked up in shock.

"Eddy isn't mated." Nancy said, her eyes perplexed, causing the doctor to frown.

"He has a clear mating mark to his right clavicle. We're you unaware of this?"

Nancy felt her head spin, the news entirely too overwhelming. She quickly sat herself down, mind racing of the possibilities. There was only one that stuck out.

She needed to make a few phone calls.

---

The click clacking of heels rang through the quiet hallway as Nancy paced the floor, her mind moving far too quickly to grasp onto a singular idea. She had made her calls, now she waiting, once more.

She had spoken to Edward, dug her fingers deep into that boy's subconscious, but, in the end, she came back with nothing. It seemed the obtuse Alpha generally had no idea what she was talking about.

Her next call had been to Eddward, her rapid fire questions surely taking the teen by surprise. There had been no preamble, no greetings; nothing but the desire to know the truth, all of it. He had hesitated, clearly knowing something more than she had, but uncomfortable sharing the news. He caved though, and Nancy had immediately thanked him for his sincerity.

Lastly, she had called the child's father, Kevin. It took some digging through her son's phone to find the number, but when she did, there wasn't any hesitation in dialing the number. Her call had gone to voicemail, so she hung up and dialed again. She kept at it until that damn brat finally answered his phone, clear annoyance ringing loud in his voice. He hadn't been when they hung up; that, she was positive of. He had been requested at the hospital.

With a flick of her wrist, her eyes glanced at her old heirloom watch, eyes following the little second hand as it bypassed its brethren. Her lips frowned, eyebrows drawing together as time ticked by. Heels turned toe and marched again, legs tirelessly carrying her back and forth.

She had sent Gerald to fetch a few things from the house in a effort to get him out of the way. The man had been fuming, silently, about Eddy's…. condition. There had been talk of throwing the young omega out, casting him aside for being a horrible disgrace. Nancy was tired of hearing it, tired of quietly arguing with him. To shut him up, she sent him elsewhere.

She had seen Eddy earlier, the doctor giving the all clear for visitors. Her pacing was an effort to soothe the gaping hole in her heart that had formed when she stared at the state her son was in. There had been so many wires, too many, crisscrossing each other in an intricate dance only the medical staff knew well.

Thundering footsteps galloping down the hall brought her out of her thoughts. Wide eyes glanced up from her imaginary line to the jock rampaging toward her, his green eyes blazing with a whirlwind of emotions, most noticeable: panic.

He stopped just before he reached her, chest heaving from his sprint to this exact point. He opened his mouth, only for it to close again, wild eyes begging for answers.

This, too, broke her heart.

"Hello, Kevin," she muttered stepping up to the taller teenager, her hand gently catching his own, "I'm glad you came."

"Where…" Kevin had started to ask, but Nancy quickly shushed him. She directed him to a seat, which happened to be one of the nurse's stations. Green eyes browsed the rhythmic screens of thudding hearts before he snapped his attention back to Eddy's mother.

She had meant to tell him everything. She meant to calm his fears. She only wanted to reassure him, but she ended up doing none of that. Just as her pretty, stained lips opened, a tone of alarm pierced the silence.

Both jock and mother turned sharp eyes to the stampeding of medical staff, all moving in a systematic herd… A herd that was going into Eddy's room.

She could only wail, the jock leaping to his feet. They were shoved down the hall and ushered back into the waiting room and left in stunned silence. Nancy quickly fell back into an inconsolable mess on the floor while Kevin stumbled to a seat. He plopped down, head in his hands, fists twisting into his own red locks. He couldn't stop his own storm even if he had tried.

---

She had not expected Eddward to arrive, a tangled mess of apprehensive worriment. She hadn't expected their bulky, towering Alpha friend to follow shortly after, his face a carefully constructed mask of durability and strength. She could see the cracks though, the way his eyes glistened in the lighting, his light blues an ocean of concern.

It was a relief to know that Eddy was dearly cared for; that his friends would be with be with him until the end. What she really hadn't expected was the dark looks of animosity directed towards the redhead, or the tense ferocity that encompassed the air. The twisted smell of barely contained anger didn't mix well with the scent of stressed Alpha. The wretchedness made her want to gag.

"What are you doing here?" Double D had said after many minutes, heated eyes glaring at the jock as he looked up, face scrunching as if he just noticed the others.

"I thought I said to stay away from Eddy." The authority behind that tone momentarily stunned Nancy, but not Kevin.

"Not now," the jock spit out, teeth clenching in clear anger, canines flashing.

"You shouldn't be here! This," Double D said, his arms gesturing wildly around them, "is all your fault!"

"Shut it, Double Dweeb." He wasn't trying to make nice, his voice cold and indifferent.

Double D gave a snarl of his own, refusing to back down, "If anything happens to either of them, it'll be on your hands."

"You don't think I know that?" Kevin asked as he gave a bitter chuckle, his mask of pride and loose detachment falling away. Underneath stood a terrified and remorseful Alpha, eyes brimming with tears that he refused to show.

"I know I did wrong by him; I know I hurt him," snapped the grieving Alpha, hands balling into fists atop his thighs, teeth mashing together.

"Then why did you do it?" Eddward asked, arms crossing his chest as he glared over at Kevin.

"I don't have to explain myself to you." Kevin said, words dripping with venomous rage. Double D opened his mouth to retort, but a hand slapping the now-surprised Alpha, Eddy's mother's form leering over him.

"What did you do?" she whispered, a tinge of despair coloring her voice. Kevin said nothing, frame leaning back in his seat, eyes starring down at the tiled floor.

"What did you do?!" Nancy repeated, more volume to her voice; that motherly tone demanding answers.

"For starters, he marked Eddy without consent." Double D jumped in, watching as the small woman glared heatedly down at the remorseful Alpha, her hand poised to strike again.

"You're right." Kevin whispered hollowly, a rough hand dragging through his disheveled hair, "I'm a terrible fucking person. I claimed Eddy, took him as mine, and then misused him."

The resounding slap left both of the Eds flinching. Nancy said nothing, her tears burning to anger as she glared down at the Alpha. Kevin looked everywhere but in her eyes, ones that reminded him far too much of the omega struggling to survive.

"I told you to choose!" Nancy growled down at Kevin, voice hoarse with choked fury, "I said you had to be here wholeheartedly!"

Nancy was breaking now, her form slipping haphazardly into an open seat, her frustrated tears pouring down her smudge cheeks, voice tight with barely contained sobs, "Eddward is right; why are you here?"

"Eddy asked me at one point if I loved him," Kevin started, a stray tear sliding down a flushed cheek as his voice shook with trepidation, "I didn't have an answer for him; not at that moment. But I do now."

Nancy softened slightly, but her expression was still twisted in her motherly devotion. She went to say something, but Kevin immediately cut her off.

"That day, a few weeks ago… I was with Nazz. You have to understand… Nazz and I had been together for two years before Eddy." Kevin began, eyes distant as the memory took hold.

"I just… See… I was… I'm sorry; I'm so sorry Mrs. Reese, I never wanted to hurt him." Kevin continued, his head sinking back into his hands.

"Sorry isn't good enough!" Nancy cried, clear anger in her voice, teeth bared in warning, "My son is in there, possibly dying because of you!"

"I know. And I feel so fucking stupid. I just wanted to make everyone happy." Kevin mumbled, his breath shaky as he tried to keep a tight lid on his emotions.

"Well, congratulations Kevin, you failed miserably at that." Double D hissed ready to take a step towards the despondent Alpha, Ed quickly following.

Before anyone else could utter another word, the haggard doctor from earlier walked in, his eyes immediately catching Nancy's. The woman jumped up from her seat, Ed and Double D filed in close, wanting to hear the condition of their closest friend. Kevin remained seated, his ears tuned in to the conversation.

"He's stable now." The doctor said, his voice low and sympathetic, "He had a seizure, but we were able to control it quick enough."

Nancy tried her best to steel her features, but she could feel the tall tell signs of tears pooling in her eyes. Kevin's breath hitched at the words, while Double D couldn't contain his gasp as he leaned heavily on Ed for support.

"What does that mean for Eddy?" Nancy asked, her hand unconsciously gripping Ed's arm in a punishing grip.

"We're not sure yet. We won't know if there are any lasting effects until he awakens." The doctor said, his hand lightly clamping onto Nancy's arm in a show of comfort.

"And the baby?" she uttered, taking several deep breaths to control herself.

"The… fetus' heart rate has dropped. We're doing our best to manage it, but there's a possibility we will have to deliver it early." The doctor replied, a sad smile gracing his lips.

"What…" Kevin began to ask, pausing to suck in a deep, shuddering breath to continue, "What does that mean?"

The doctor took a moment to look over at the Alpha, eyes alight with a curious glint, "And you are?"

"He's the piece of shit who knocked up my son." Nancy interjected, getting an awkward nod from medical professional.

"It means that Eddy will deliver at 22 weeks. The odds for survival are very low, but not impossible."

"How low?" Kevin whispered hoarsely, his chest constricting at the thought.

"10 to 20 percent born this early survive, even with immediate medical intervention." The doctor finished, his eyes switching to the jock as he choked on ragged air, his head turning light as his thoughts swam freely.

When Kevin was able to be coherent once more, he furiously wiped away his tears, "Is there anyway to increase their odds?"

"Are you fully bonded?" the doctor asked, his kind, brown eyes studying the jock closely. Kevin shook his head, not able to utter the words aloud.

"Since it is an incomplete bond, there may not be much you can do." The doctor started, watching as the young teen fell into another snare of heartache.

"Please, I'll do anything. I don't care what it takes." Kevin whispered, his glassy green eyes pleading with the doctor for a lifeline.

"Well," the doctor began, somewhat hesitant, "Your presence might help tether him, but there's no guarantee."

"I'll do it!" Kevin iterated as he stood, his clenched at his sides as he fought back his own mental breakdown.

"Absolutely not!" Nancy hissed, whirling around to glare up at the towering Alpha, "I don't want you anywhere near my son!"

"Please, just let me try." Kevin pleaded, tears thickening his voice but refusing to fall.

"No! You've done enough!" Nancy snarled. Kevin allowed a sob to escape, body fully willing to walk away in defeat, but the stubborn beast within him dug its nails in. Swallowing his deep-seated pride, Kevin dropped to his knees, catching the occupants completely of guard.

"Please."

---

Kevin sat quietly in the entirely too loud room, eyes watching the rise and fall of Eddy's chest. He held one of the omega's hands in his own, thumb gingerly, yet absentmindedly, brushing over the back of the knuckles. He'd lean forward every now and then, pressing butterfly kisses to any and every part of Eddy's face, hoping the unconsciousness male could feel it.

Kevin had called his parents, confessing everything over the phone as he desperately tried to hold onto some semblance of control. They had been shocked, understandably; disappointed that Kevin would end up in this situation so early in life. But they could hear their son's heart shattering over the phone; it scared them. Kevin had always been in control, was a master of his own emotions; that's not what called them. The person who reached out to them was a terrified, broken, young teen feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders. They dropped everything to come to his aide.

Kevin had briefly seen his parents while in the waiting room, his mother rushing to him with open arms and his father crushing the both of them. In the arms of his own makers, he finally allowed himself to feel the entirety of the situation, of every ounce of grief oozing from his pores as he sobbed into his mother's shoulder.

When Kevin finally calmed down, he quickly brought them over to Nancy. The adults whispered quietly to one another, before Eddy's mother told him, tentatively, to go be with the omega while she and his parents talked. They had disappeared to the cafeteria hours ago.

Kevin rubbed a hand firmly down his face, body leaning forward to rest his upper half on the bed. He carefully lifted Eddy's hand to his lips, brushing a kiss across the back of them.

With a squeal of the chair legs as they slid across the floor, Kevin pressed as close as he could to the unconsciousness omega, his breath tickling the hair on his neck. With eyes closing, Kevin placed his lips to Eddy's ear and began to mutter sweet nothings.

"Eddy," The red head began, his breath hitching in his throat, "You are the oxygen I breathe. You are the missing piece I never knew I needed, the one who makes me feel complete. You make me feel like I'm home."

Kevin felt the hot trail of tears as they fell, a couple of soft sobs leaving him as he continued, "You are the reason I smile, the reason I live. You are my everything, my reason, my love, my forever. I love you more than words can express."

Kevin ended with a gentle kiss to Eddy's lips, his hand squeezing the limp one he was holding, soft sniffles filling the room. His free hand reached out, body leaning over the prone figure in the bed to grasp at the blanket, pulling it a little higher up his omega's chest and tucking it in firmly.

He laid his head down on his own crisscrossed arms, hand still clinging to Eddy's. Tired green eyes slipped closed, the teen giving in to the comfort of darkness.

LeavesofMyself: Okay… kind of long, I get that… I really did try to break it up equally! I swear!

Anyway, thank you so much for reading!
