Time Management
[Ichimatsu’s never been the best at keeping track of time, and he ends up going into heat outside. Luckily, there always seems to be a brother around. [Two-part, Todo/Ichi and Jyushi/Ichi]]
In the midst of winter, the entire town seemed sleepier. It wasn’t snowing, not yet, but the area seemed to be waiting for it with bated breath. The sky was an overcast grey, heavy with lumbering clouds. Even with the cold wind that blew through the city, they didn’t seem to be going anywhere. That attitude was inflicted on the residents too- no one wanted to do much of anything.
Of course, this was true in part. There were always a few extremes.
Ichimatsu was on a mission. Normally, lethargy would have him sitting at home during this season, playing with Esper Nyanko or simply lazing about, but he’d run into something that had changed that. More accurately, he’d run into a new cat. She was barely more than a kitten, a scrawny lump that was more fur than anything else, but even with her matted coat, Ichimatsu has been able to tell how skinny she was. And with winter coming up, he worried about how well she’d survive. The kitten didn’t trust him well enough to come home with him yet, so Ichimatsu had taken to bringing her food daily, petting some of the other street cats as she ate. Hopefully she’d open up to him soon- he didn’t want to come out when it got much colder than this.
The cold was already affecting Jyushimatsu, his normal partner in crime for these sort of ventures. He supposed it was due in part to his Omega nature- Jyushimatsu didn’t exactly want him out in the alleyways alone, but Ichimatsu hadn’t ever encountered any problems. He wasn’t all too concerned with his own well being either.
Arriving in his favorite alley (he actually had many favorites, all they needed was cats), Ichimatsu knelt down, withdrawing a small bag filled with cat food from his pocket. The movement was enough to draw a small multitude of felines to him, and soon Ichimatsu was reveling in being surrounded by a gang of cats. He wished he had a few more hands.
He mistook the first twinge as some sort of happiness from being surrounded by cats. The next lurching of his stomach could be passed off as some sort of food poisoning, but Ichimatsu was already beginning to realize what was happening. With a muttered apology to the cats he was displacing, Ichimatsu stood up- or at least attempted to. The unexpected weakness in his limbs had him halting in place. Eventually he regained his bearings, standing on trembling legs and making his way out of the swarm to lean against the wall for support.
A few problems came from not caring for yourself well. Not eating healthily or even regular meals (Ichimatsu was fond of snacking) meant that his body was not the most well adapted for long amounts of exertion. The problem was only compounded when you were an Omega. It meant Ichimatsu’s heats never had a regular schedule, and could never be predicted. At least not by him.
Jyushimatsu’s senses had always been better than normal, even before he’d presented as an Alpha. Once his nature had set in, they’d become something to be feared. Ichimatsu could use Jyushi as an early warning device, because Jyushi always knew the minute Ichimatsu’s scent changed even in the smallest of ways. Except for the last week, because Jyushi had been wrapped up in a ball of blankets and clothing, not yet ill, but not at his full potential either.
And with the scent blockers Ichimatsu normally used, he hadn’t been able to sense the change in his own body.
And now he was going to go into heat, away from home, with no one else around.
Ichimatsu put his hand against his mouth, muffling the low whine that escaped him at the thought of spending his heat alone. Unlike his normal carelessness, he couldn’t help to worry as well- his scent was weak now, but when his heat came in full force, there was no doubt that any Alpha or Omega in the area would be able to smell him out.
He pushed his head back against the wall, mouth open as he panted, “F-fuck this…” His voice broke, another wave of feeling pulsing through his body, settling like a coal into the core of him. Thighs clamped together, he pushed his fingernails into the palm of hand in an attempt to regain control.
He could barely think, but he knew it would only get worse. Ichimatsu needed to get inside, somewhere, anywhere. He was desperate, both body and mind and there was so many things he needed- He needed to be knotted to be held down and fucked and bitten- He scratched at his own arms, but he enjoyed it and he needed more, anyone, no, he needed Jyushi-
The feeling eventually subsided enough for Ichimatsu to focus, but the desperation was much, much worse. He made it out of the alley, ignoring the way his legs trembled, the slowly developing ache in his ass (at least he wasn’t producing slick yet). Where even was he?
He looked up, blank eyed, at the signs around him. Objectively, he knew he should recognize them, but his brain could barely make a connection.
“Hey there,” a kind voice interrupted him, making him aware of the fact that there were other people out and about. “Are you alright?”
An Omega, Ichimatsu realized, smelling her nature. An Omega woman was looking at him with worry in her eyes, not touching him, but her hand was tensed as if she wanted to. To comfort, no doubt. He probably looked younger than he was, hunched over and smelling of distress and heat like this. Most adult Omegas were probably better at managing their lives.
“Get away from me,” he growled, glaring at her- and her friend too, a Beta man with no obvious scent. He just looked curious.
“Yuna-san,” the man spoke, “Isn’t he the bartender from that shop? Why’s he-”
“He’s going into heat,” the other Omega exhaled, but then nodded, “Yeah, he is- I couldn’t smell anything in that coffee shop, but clearly he misscheduled… Maybe the manager will help?” She addressed Ichimatsu now, as if he was some hurt animal that needed gentle coaxing. He bared his teeth at her, even as his scent spiked with his own distress. She smiled more, but stepped away, to try and give him space. “Do you want us to take you to your manager? He can call someone for you, get someone to take you home…”
Ichimatsu had forgotten he had a cellphone. Though he was fairly certain he didn’t have a manager. Or even a job. He nodded anyway, because he could feel more and more people looking at him. Sharp glances that had him tensing, and he knew there were whispers- he was so much more sensitive to everything like this. Instinct was rising in him, telling him to bare his neck, show himself off to the nearby Alphas, needing one to mate him, but he kept himself hunched over as he followed along.
They’d arrived at a cafe Ichimatsu was sure he’d been in before when he felt it. The telltale wetness as his slick started, leaking down his leg as he stood in the doorway. He bit his lip, hard, desperately keeping the Omega nature down that wanted from him to beg and moan.
“We found one of your-” The woman stopped, stared at the barista, turned to stare at Ichimatsu, then back at the barista. “We found your twin…?”
“Oh, thank goodness you did!” Totty’s voice was sweet, but like honey over a knife, Ichimatsu could the sharp gleam in his eyes. “I’ve been so worried about nii-san, thank you for finding him!” He gestured to one of his coworkers, letting her take his place at the counter as he moved around to the three of them. Ichimatsu found himself suddenly thankful that Totty worked in a coffee shop of all places. The heavy smell of coffee grounds could almost disguise his heat scent when it was in its initial stages like this. It wouldn’t be like that for long though, and Todomatsu clearly knew it, eyes dragging to the dampness in his pants. Ichimatsu vainly tried to drag his sweater down more.
“Thank you so much- I’ll go talk to the manager, of course~ You two are so kind! I’ll be happy to get you some coffee once we fix this, but I don’t want to keep you too long.” He smiled, a hand on Ichimatsu’s arm, and suddenly he was being dragged into the backroom, and pushed into an employee-only bathroom. “Stay here.” Totty commanded, then smiled. “I’ve got to talk to my manager, but I’m sure she’ll understand! She’s a beta, but she’s always tried to be super understanding of Omegan ‘needs’. I’m sure I can convince her.” He whirled to exit, stopping only to tilt his head. “Oh, Ichimatsu-niisan? Try not to make a mess this time.”
He couldn’t quite comprehend what Totty wanted him to do, but Ichimatsu resolved to ignore it anyway. No longer really able to comprehend stretches of time, he was unsure how long it was before Todomatsu came back, a self-satisfied smirk on his face and a collection of towels in his hand. “The manager thinks it’s so kind of me to be here with you, especially when I mentioned how severe your heats can get.” Todomatsu dropped the towels, using his foot to push them along the crack in the door. “It was about to be my break anyway, so when I mentioned that it may take a bit longer for my brothers to get here and come help you, she was so ready to help me out! Even if my break runs over, I’m still going to get paid while I’m back here helping you!” Todomatsu winked at Ichimatsu, “So I’ll get Choromatsu-niisan to come pick you up; I’ve already called him. But I told him to take a little bit of extra time- You don’t mind, nii-san?”
Ichimatsu did mind, but it was kind of hard not to, with his body aching for any sort of touch.
“Does this mean you’re going to help me out?” Ichimatsu managed to ask, albeit breathlessly.
“Normally I don't get to see you much during heats,” Todomatsu explained, “And I've always wanted to see someone other than myself go through this.” He was lightly flushed himself, eyes bright as he watched his brother writhe on the floor. “You're lucky that we keep this place really clean, Nii-San. Though I suppose you wouldn't even mind if it was dirty? You'd feel like it's where you belonged.”
Ichimatsu moaned, Todomatsu’s voice only arousing him further. “Mm gonna-”
“Ah? You should ask me, nii-san, I’d be happy to help you out.” Ichimatsu watched as Todomatsu stepped forward, his breath quickening in hope that he’d finally get something like relief. He was glad his pants were baggy, but they were wet with his slick, and he wanted to get out, he wanted something in him and maybe Todomatsu would finally touch him.
When his brother did, it was with a light touch of his foot, pressed to his crotch. Ichimatsu arched forward, pressing up against it, whining needily when Todomatsu took his foot away. “Ah, nii-san, didn’t you hear me? You have to ask~!”
Ichimatsu lolled his head, glaring at Todomatsu. His brother seemed immune, but thankfully not to arousal. Even in his own lust addled state, he could tell that the man was enjoying it. He couldn’t resist, even if he wanted to. “Todomatsu, please.”
“Eh? What was that? Ichimatsu-niisan, you know if you’re too quiet, I may misunderstand your instructions!”
Ichimatsu attempted to lunge at his brother, drag him down to the same dirty level, but his legs were too weak, and the attempt fell short. “F-fuck you… Help me out.”
“I’ll get fucked during my own heat, nii-san.” Todomatsu back up further, out of the reach of Ichimatsu’s grasping hands. “Let me take this apron off, wouldn’t want to get my work clothes dirty.”
Resolving to ignore his brother for now, Ichimatsu returned to his task of stripping himself. His pants were pulled down, his thighs sticky with his own lubricant. He had to touch himself, rub himself off to sate that burning need to be filled even a little. Ichimatsu pressed back against a wall, kicking off his sweatpants and boxers to spread his legs. He could touch himself later, but he needed something in him, even his own fucking fingers.
He was so close to his goal when Totty returned, cutting him off from any relief with a well placed hand. Todomatsu was finally touching him, pumping his cock with a lotioned hand. Ichimatsu’s own palms were flat to the ground, pressing hard as he moaned his relief. “Please, Totty, more-”
“More? But I’m having fun like this.” Todomatsu’s touches grew fainter until he was dragging the edge of his nails up the shaft of Ichimatsu’s cock.
Overstimulated and aroused beyond relief, Ichimatsu pushed his legs farther apart, trying to entice the other man into giving him more, put something into him or let him cum. “Please,” he repeated, begging now.
“Please what?” Todomatsu moved his hand to palm himself through his jeans, trying to contain his own arousal. Ichimatsu knew his brother was being obtuse on purpose, but he couldn’t do anything to stop him. “Tell me exactly what you want.”
“I want you to finger me, please. I want to be filled, damn you.”
“Damning me now? That’s a bit rude. And what’s in it for me, if I do that?” Totty pursed his lips, as if he could pretend not to be enjoying this. And as another Omega, he was immune to any pheromone Ichimatsu was producing, which Ichimatsu considered an unfair advantage.
“Nn-” Another wave of pleasure filled him, cock twitching with the rush of desire and heat that filled Ichimatsu’s body, ass clenching around emptiness. “I’ll let you do anything later, please, Totty-”
“Anything~? Wouldn’t you already do that if I just asked nicely?” Todomatsu’d wrapped his hands around his brother’s neglected cock again, slowly pumping him, but never enough to get Ichimatsu off.
“Totty,” Ichimatsu’s voice broke beneath the strain, panting and gasping and losing all control of himself. “I-I’ll let you do anything, fuck my thighs, whatever, please just fucking hurt me god I need it, I need you,” and he was drooling almost, saliva wetting the edges of his opened mouth. “Anything.”
“Will you wear thigh-highs too?” Totty was clearly enjoying this, but Ichimatsu could care less- the only thing he could thing about was his intense need and the way his brother’s soft fingertips caressed his dick, never hard enough to give him the stimulation he needed.
“Y-yes,” he whined, bucking his hips, trying to rub himself off on his brother. Any sort of friction, and then something to fill him, “Todomatsu-.”
“Of course nii-san, I’ll be glad to.” Finally, finally Todomatsu was squeezing more firmly, pumping Ichimatsu’s cock, moving up to thumb his slit, dragging out louder and louder noises from his brother. Ichimatsu was so close, so oversensitive it was almost painful, and he enjoyed that even more, and when Totty dragged his nails down his shaft Ichimatsu keened, thrusting into his brothers hand. He alternated his motions, and it wasn’t long before Ichimatsu spilled into Todomatsu’s hand, cum splattering over his brother’s fingers.
“How messy,” The youngest giggled, bringing his hand up to Ichimatsu with a heavy look in his eyes. “You’ll clean me off? You enjoy being dirty, nii-san. Be a good boy for me?”
Ichimatsu didn’t even respond, leaning forward and lapping at his brother’s fingers. The haze of his heat had released some, with his own orgasm, but it would soon return. He didn’t mind the taste of his own cum, not when he was being made to eat it. One by one, he took each of Totty’s fingers into his mouth, sucking on the digit, using his tongue to make sure his brother was completely clean. And if it was arousing his brother- well, it was only fair to begin to get some payback.
“Nn- that’s enough, nii-san. And you’ve gotten my fingers nice and wet… Not that I’ll need it.” Todomatsu pulled away, breathing heavy. “You’re so wet, Ichimatsu-niisan, and you’re hard again? Spread your legs, I think you’ve earned this.”
Ichimatsu followed his brother’s commands, showing himself off to the other Omega, hole twitching with the need to take in something. He was a disgusting mess, all sticky with sweat and slick and need, and it was so hot having his brother staring at him and using him. The haze was back as quickly as it'd disappeared, touching his mind and weakening his limbs. If Ichimatsu had more strength, he probably would have jumped on Todomatsu and fucked himself on him. He’d try that at a later time.
And then Todomatsu had nestled himself in between Ichimatsu’s legs, pushing three fingers into him, and Ichimatsu’s brain short-circuited. It was all feral need, desperate for more as he squeezed around his brother’s fingers. It was so so good, but not enough, not enough to be full- Todomatsu recognized this, curling his finger tips in and pressing deeper, and Ichimarsu wailed. “Totty, totty fuck me, please, I need more.” There were tears now, hot and heavy when Todomatsu moved and pressed a fourth finger into him, spreading and exploring his ass. And then his dick of a brother removed his hand from him. Ichimatsu couldn’t form words, so he settled with growling his displeasure, head lolled to the side.
At least his brother hadn’t completely neglected him- because he felt Todomatsu at his entrance, thumb pressed to his gaping hole, pressing his fist into Ichimatsu’s body. It hurt, even with the natural lubricant his body produced, but it felt so so good as well.
Totty’s other hand had been busy too, because at the feeling of his brother’s hand on his dick, even as he pressed his fist into his prostate, Ichimatsu came again, mouth open and toes curled, breathing out his brother’s name, “Todomatsu, yes-!” In the back of his mind, he felt the loss of not being filled with an Alpha’s semen, but he couldn’t make himself care. The pseudo-knotting from Totty fisting him would help him out calm down, at least for long enough to make it back to the house. Ichimatsu sighed as Todomatsu finally pulled out of him- and he was finally aware enough to notice how hard the other was. Overly-affectionate after orgasm and in heat, Ichimatsu practically fell on top of Totty as he pulled himself onto the other’s lap, pressing against him and nuzzling into his neck, pressing his cheek against the other’s scent glands.
“It’s going to smell like I’m in heat,” Todomatsu complained, but with no real malice. “... And I’m so glad it’s hard to hear with all the coffee grinders running. You’re loud.”
“So are you.”
“Yeah, but I make it cute.”
Ichimatsu decided that was the moment to grind onto Todomatsu’s erection, eliciting a gasp from his brother.
“Ichimatsu-niisan, no-”
“Why not?”
“I still have work, and I’m not going to make you take care of me while you’re in heat. You’ll help me out soon enough.” Todomatsu smiled, small and catlike in an attempt to look cute. Unfortunately, it worked. “Oh, and besides, Choromatsu is here now! I heard my phone go off. Like three times. He can be so impatient, can’t he? And don’t forget your promise. I’ll be walking you out, and cleaning this up.” Todomatsu turned his head, lips brushing against Ichimatsu’s ear. “I’ve already got the perfect outfit. Now let’s get you at least partially dressed~ We’ve got people waiting!” Ichimatsu finally moved off of his brother, the promise of his Alpha the only thing motivating him. No doubt he’d be tackled the moment he arrived home.
He looked forward to it.
