Omega

A/N: Hey everyone!
Had some problems in the beginning of the month that really cut the creative juices off. Things seem to be on track now though, so I am excited to get things going again. ^-^
Poor Gerard. All he wanted to do was get through the first day of school in one piece...
Pleas enjoy guys.

Gerard took a deep breath and then opened up the doors to the school. Seniors had a different entrance from the rest of the school. Senior privilege they called it. A blessing is what Gerard called it cause he could get to his homeroom without running into any of his pack. He wanted to start the year off on the right note. He got to his locker and put his stuff away. A cold snap hit the area early so he decided to keep his outer hoodie cause there was no way the school turned on the heat yet. He looked at his watch and saw that he had time for a cigarette before class started. He slipped out the side door and leaned against the building. He pulled his pack out and packed it as he looked around. The leaves were just starting to turn and it made Gerard smile. He loved the fall. Even though he was born in the spring he felt more at ease at this time of year. Despite the happiness of the season now, he knew winter would loom soon and with that his heat. He thought about those pills he saw online. They suppressed heat so that it was less detectable. Then if he used scent inhibitors, he might skate by this year. He pulled out his phone and checked his bank account. It was low now, but he got paid tomorrow from his job, so he could order them early. He thought of all this as he ripped open the pack and popped on in his mouth.

”Hey, can I get a light?”

Gerard jumped and nearly dropped his cigarette out of his mouth. He looked and saw a shorter boy next to him. He didn’t look familiar, so Gerard thought he might be a transfer, he relaxed a bit.

”Sure.”

Gerard lit his own cigarette and then handed the lighter over.

”Thanks.”

The guy lit his cigarette and tossed the lighter back. Gerard caught it and put it in his pocket. He took his first drag and sagged against the building.

”First one of the day?”

”Yeah man, can’t smoke with the wardens around you know?”

”Nice.”

The guy took his own drag.

”You don’t look familiar, you new this year?”

”Yeah, family just moved here?”

”Seriously? Cause you gots a wicked accent.”

The boy laughed.

”Well yeah, still lived in Jersey, just lived more towards Demerast. Pop’s got a new job closer to Newark so yeah.”

”Ah, I get that.”

The guy smiled and held his hand out.

”Frank.”

Gerard smiled and took it.

”Nice to meet you, Ger…”

”Oh Gerard, there you are.”

Gerard froze wishing that voice away.

”Look at you making friends already.”

Brendon walked up to Gerard and pushed him out of the way into Spencer and Ryan’s arms.

”Hey, I’m Brendon, you must be new here to not know who Gee is.”

”Frank and yeah I guess so?”

Frank could see that the other two boys was holding Gerard down and squeezing tight digging fingernails in to his arms. Even with the coverage, there would be bruising.

”Yeah, well Gee here is our little play thing so you might want to stay away and…”

”Ryan, Spencer, let him go!”

Another boy walked up and Frank noticed that the other two boys listened immediately. Gerard fell to the ground panting.

”You alright Gee?”

The new boy crouched down and touched Gerard’s face. He then stood up and grabbed Brendon pushing him against the wall.

”What the fuck Brendon?!”

”Easy Mikes, just having a little fun, that’s all.”

Frank heard the new boy growl low. That’s when Frank realized he was looking at a pack and this was their Alpha.

”Leave Gee alone.”

”Whatever.”

The Alpha growled more and pressed his fist into the boy’s neck.

”What was that?”

The boy began to turn red and Frank was concerned, but he knew that it would be worse to interfere.

”Y-Y-Yes Alpha-a-a.”

”Good.”

Frank watched the other boy slump to the ground and then the new boy turned to him.

”Hey, I’m Mikey.”

”Frank.”

When they shook hands there was a tremor and Frank knew that Mikey was sizing him up.

”Look man, I don’t want any trouble. I was just talking to the guy.”

Mikey looked back at Gerard.

”Yeah, Gee’s my brother.”

”And this is your pack?”

”Well one of them is not here. Ray is in college already.”

”Oh, that’s cool.”

That told Frank what he need to know. The boy, Mikey’s brother, had to be the Omega and this Ray guy was most likely their Beta.

”First bell guys, get going.”

Brendon got up and joined Ryan and Spencer.

”See you later Gee.”

Gerard cringed knowing this was far from over. He got up and stretched his arms feeling the bruises.

”You okay Gee?”

”Yeah Mikey, I’m fine.”

Frank could see that Gerard’s pride was wounded more than anything.

”See you around Frank.”

”Sure Gerard.”

Gerard disappeared into the building.

”Walk with me Frank?”

”Sure.”

Mikey and Frank fell into step side by side as they walked around the school.

”So do you have a pack yet?”

”No, We move around a lot so I never get established.”

”Oh man, that sucks.”

”Yeah, so six of you huh?”

”Yeah, well me, Ray, Brendon, Ryan, Spencer, and Gee.”

”Must be hard, younger brother Alpha, older brother Omega.”

”He wasn’t the original, but Bob moved away.”

They arrived at the building and Mikey turned to Frank and Frank finished his cigarette.

”Look, I don’t care if you are friends with my brother. He could use some after dealing with the Mid rank crew all the time, but if you hurt him…”

Mikey let out a low growl for good measure.

”I got you Mikey, don’t worry.”

”Good, I gotta get to class. See ya Frank.”

Mikey waved and disappeared into the building. Frank took the last drag and then walked in himself. He walked into the classroom and frowned. Sitting three desks together were Brendon, Ryan, and Spencer.

”Well if it isn’t Gee’s new best friend.”

Brendon mocked and Ryan and Spencer giggled like sheep.

”And you are?”

The teacher looked at Frank.

”New here.”

”Ah, well we sit alphabetical here so that’s your seat in the back.”

Frank looked and groaned. It was right next to Brendon. He walked back to the desk and sat down.

”Guess we’re neighbors huh Frankie?”

”Don’t call me that.”

Frank let out a low growl and Brendon instinctually backed up.

”Alpha.”

There was a whisper through the room. Then the teacher cleared his throat. Everyone was looking at Frank. Apparently he was the only Alpha in this classroom. He recognized the submissiveness of a few Beta’s, but no Omegas as far as he could tell. He could hear Brendon and his cronies whispering now.

”If you three are done gossiping in the back, I would like to get on with the lesson.”

Admonished properly, the three boys faced forward and the teacher turned to the board.

Gerard sat quietly under the tree at the far end of the quad. He wasn’t really hiding from anyone, but he was also not presenting himself as a target. He could see Brendon, Ryan, and Spencer eating at one of the outside benches and he scooted around to the other side of the tree…cause the sun was in his eyes. He almost believed his own lie. Gerard sighed. How pathetic was he? 18, a senior, and hiding from a bunch of 14 year old freshmen. If this was what September was like…Gerard shook his head. He didn’t even want to think about it. He pulled out his phone and searched through his contacts.

*Hey, you busy?*

A few second later his phone pinged an answer.

*Nothing I can’t stop for you Gee Boo.*

Gerard laughed.

*Cut it out. I wanna talk business.*

*Oh poo, you’re no fun.*

*I am…just not when it comes to business.*

*You coming to the show Saturday?*

Gerard thought about it. He could find an excuse to make to the pack. He had not been one since the summer.

*Yeah, I’ll be there.*

*Great, so what can I do for you Gee boo?*

*I need to get a hold of some suppressants by November as well as inhibitors.*

*Planning for Christmas?*

*Something like that.*

*I’ll see what I can do and let you know on Saturday.*

*Awesome, thanks so much Rob.*

*You got it Gee Boo.*

Gerard sent a few emojis and then put his phone away. He was about to take a bite of his meger sandwich when a shadow fell over him. He cowered waiting.

”Is that all you are eating?”

Gerard looked up and saw the boy from earlier.

”Um…that’s all that was left after Mikey finished eating.”

”Right, Alpha eats first.”

Gerard saw him go in his bag.

”Here, take it.”

Gerard saw him offering a sandwich that looked much better then what he had.

”I can’t.”

”Why not?”

”I have to offer it to Mikey first.”

Gerard felt stupid and he was so hungry, but he knew the rules and the punishment if they were broken and discovered.

”Does it have to be Mikey?”

Gerard tilted his head like he usually does when he doesn’t understand. The boy giggled slightly.

”I mean can it be any Alpha?”

”Oh. I mean I guess?”

It wasn’t even Mikey’s lunch period so it would be hard to find him to even offer the food.

The boy smiled and unwrapped the sandwich. Gerard could smell the meat and his stomach growled. He took a bite and Gerard could see how juicy the meat was. Some of it ran down the boy’s chin and Gerard licked his lips wanting to taste it. When he took a second bite, Gerard let out a small whimper. Then the boy handed the sandwich to him.

”Here, I took what I wanted.”

Gerard looked at him for a second and then it clicked.

”You’re an Alpha.”

The boy smiled.

”Frank, remember?”

It slowly came back to him. Frank introduced himself just before the Middle Ranks showed up.

”Oh right, I uh…Gerard.”

”Yeah, Mikey told me.”

”Of course, how stupid of me.”

Gerard accepted the sandwich. He took a small bite. He was right; it was juicy and seasoned perfectly. Before he knew it he was ripping chunks out of it and growling as he ate. He had not eaten this good in so long.

”Want another?”

Gerard looked up from shoving the last of the sandwich in his mouth and saw another one. He grabbed for it and Frank pulled it back a bit. Gerard growled.

”Gotta catch me first.”

Frank started to back up and Gerard crawled forward. Then Frank turned and ran and Gerard took after him.

Frank had not had this much fun in a long time. He knew it was kind of mean to tease the Omega, but he was going to give him the sandwich no matter what. It almost saddened him that the older boy was so ravenous. He wondered how often he got food when the pack fed. Frank was not running at his full potential, but he could tell that the Omega was getting tired. He pretended to trip on a root and let Gerard catch him. He felt himself going down and Gerard jumped on him and rolled him over to the sandwich. Frank laughed as he handed it off. Gerard grabbed it and tore into it through the plastic. He was dripping the juice on Frank and Frank was still laughing. Once the sandwich was finished, Gerard leaned down and began to lick the juice off Frank’s face. When it was all gone, Gerard sat up licking his chops. He smiled and looked down at Frank and then recoiled. The moment was over and Frank could see the Omega’s eyes widen. He leaped off and cowered on his knees vomiting apologies. Frank sat up and petted his head.

”It’s okay, really it is. You were hungry.”

”Still it was wrong of me to do that. I’m sorry, please forgive me.”

Frank laid a soothing hand on Gerard’s neck and the Omega collapsed, his head falling on Frank’s thigh. He was still whimpering, but starting to relax. Frank kept up the motion and continued to whisper assurances till Gerard quieted completely and fell asleep.

”So where is he then!?”

Brendon groaned as Mikey pushed him against the building again.

”We didn’t see him at lunch!”

”He’s telling the truth Alpha!”

Ryan was worried about Brendon. He had hit that brick a few times now and as hard headed as his pack mate was, he knew that it had to be hurting now.

”He doesn’t sit with us at lunch!”

Mikey growled looking at Ryan.

”I can’t imagine why!”

Now Ryan cowered.

”I saw the new kid walking towards the edge of the field, maybe he knows where Gee is.”

Mikey dropped Brendon and he slid down the wall. He stalked over to Spencer.

”Don’t…call…him…that.”

Spencer whimpered and Mikey stalked off. Ryan ran to Brendon and picked him up off the ground.

”Asshole.”

”Who, Alpha?”

”No, that stupid Omega. This is all his fault.”

Brendon reached up and touched Ryan’s face.

”Relax, we’ll get him later and make him pay.”

”We should get you to the nurse.”

Brendon winced when he stood up. Spencer hook his arm around Brendon’s back and he and Ryan made their way inside.

Mikey was still pissed as he crossed the field. More than once he had cursed the Great Spirit for letting his brother fall into the position of Omega. He knows it is because he is blood related that he is so protective of Gerard, but in truth, the Middle Ranks were treating Gerard like an Omega. It was unfair though and Mikey wished there was something he could do about it. He always thought that Gerard would be his Beta…till Ray came along. Fuck, Mikey was so in love with Ray. He hated the look of betrayal on his brother’s face when he announced Ray’s place in the pack. Gerard didn’t speak to him for a week and only called him Alpha. It hurt so much and he remembered crying in Ray’s arms. Mikey shook his thoughts away as he started to see a figure in the distance. He picked up the pace as he got closer. When he was passed the soccer field he had clear vision and he stopped. There was his Omega, with his head in the lap of another Alpha. Mikey growled and stalked up.

”Just what do you think you are doing to him?”

Frank looked up at him and continued to card his fingers through Gerard’s hair.

”Taking care of him.”

”He’s not your!”

Mikey saw the other Alpha smirk.

”I know that.”

”Then let go of…”

”When is the last time he ate?”

Mikey was taken back by the question.

”He had breakfast this morning.”

”That doesn’t count, our parents feed us. I mean when did he last eat with the pack?”

Mikey thought about it.

”We ate together last night.”

”Did he get any?”

”Of course he did!”

Mikey was getting angry now and what Frank was insinuating.

”Really now? Then why did he just devour two sandwiches, including the damn plastic on one of them.”

Mikey looked. He knelt down in front of Gerard and lifted his face gently. Gerard whimpered in his sleep. Mikey saw the crumbs and juices on his face. He gave a tentative lick.

”Roast beef. We had roast po…”

”Pork, yes I know.”

Frank held up Gerard’s original lunch. Mikey took it and opened it up. It had one half slice of pork in it and mostly grizzle and fat.

”That was his lunch.”

”I didn’t…wait, he just ate the sandwich you gave him?”

Mikey was surprised that Gerard’s didn’t find him first.

”No, he wanted to go find you and offer it.”

”So why didn’t he?”

”Cause I stopped him.”

”You wanted to get him in trouble with me?”

”No…I asked him if it had to be you.”

Mikey continued to hold Gerard’s face and Frank continued through his hair. He thought about what Frank said.

”You. He offered it to you?”

Frank laughed softly.

”No, I offered to do it for him. He would never have had the nerve to ask.”

Mikey looked down at his brother.

”I guess I owe you thanks then.”

”Nah, you don’t owe me anything.”

The bell rang and Frank stretched.

”Can you wake him up? We already missed one class.”

Mikey nodded and gently rubbed Gerard’s ear.

”Gee, come on Gee, wake up.”

Gerard stirred and yawned. He pushed himself up and rubbed his eyes. Mikey never thought his brother looked so beautiful. He decided he was taking him to bed tonight to make up for it.

”Alpha?”

Frank almost answered, but bit back his voice at the last minute.

”Yeah Gee, I’m here. Come on, you got class.”

Gerard stood up and stretched showing his stomach. Mikey reached forward and tickled him and Frank heard Gerard giggle and playfully slap Mikey’s hand away. He turned around and waved at Frank.

”Thanks for the sandwiches, sorry I fell asleep on you.”

”No worries.”

Gerard gave Frank a toothy grin and then headed to the tree he was under to get his messenger bag, Mikey and Frank both watched him walk away.

”Come over this Friday and have dinner with us.”

”You sure?”

Mikey turned to him.

”Are you going to interfere in my pack?”

”No, I have respect for you.”

”Then you are invited.”

Frank smiled and Mikey reached out and helped Frank stand. They both made their way over to Gerard.

”Come on Gee.”

”Coming Mikey. See you Frankie.”

Frank smiled and Mikey nodded in approval.

”See you Gee.”

Frank watched the pair walk away and then set off towards his own classes.

”Gee, come back.”

”Hang on Mikey, I have to answer the phone, it could be mom.”

Mikey huffed and waved his hand. He watched Gerard slip out of his bed and then slip on one of their half robes, covering his smooth pale skin.

”Hello? Hey mom. No, nothing really, just relaxing in bed.”

Gerard turned to Mikey and smiled shyly.

”Sure, give me a moment.”

Gerard hung up and then slipping off the robe, started to get dressed.

”Geeeee.”

I have to go help mom I’ll be right back.

He just slipped into his jeans and Mikey admired the marks he had left on his back with his nails.

”Hurry back?”

”I will.”

Gerard slipped his sneakers on and then left out of the Packs house. It was only a few houses away from their parents place. Parents understood the importance of Pack so they gave Mikey space to have control over his domain. They just had to sleep at home twice a week till they graduated, have dinner once a week, and do their homework every day there. Mikey and Gerard agreed it was a fair compromise.

”Hey mom, what’s up?”

”Sorry dear, I know I should wait till tomorrow, but it was driving me crazy.”

Gerard laughed. Their mother was in her third trimester and she was nesting like crazy.

”Okay, where do you want to move it?”

*

*

*

”Shhh, he’s coming!”

Brendon ducked down behind the hedges. He licked his lips in anticipation. The Omega was going to pay for what he had done to them in school today. He couldn’t wait.

”Hey, what are you doing here?”

”Surprise.”

Mikey smiled and Ray kneeled down and kissed him.

”I thought you weren’t coming back till Friday?”

”I finished my assignment early and on Thursday, my first class isn’t till one.”

Mikey kissed Ray again and pulled him into the bed.

”Where’s Gee?”

”Helping mom out.”

Gerard finally reached the door. He bit down a scream as he pushed into his knees to grab the knob. The door opened and he collapsed onto the hall floor. He tried to call for Mikey, but his neck was still tight from being squeezed. He crawled in and closed the door behind him. He knew that Mikey would be worried. He had been gone much longer than he said and he never called to let him know why. He crawled down the hall to Mikey’s room. Gerard tried to come up with a story to tell him. He hoped the light was still dim like when he left, this way Mikey would not see the marks till tomorrow. He pushed the door open and froze. Mikey was in bed with Ray. In the soft light of the lamp on the night stand, he could see the sheen of sweat on them both. Gerard knew that Mikey was not even worried about him. He probably had no idea what time it even was. Gerard choked back his sob and quietly closed the door. He made his way to the bathroom and cleaned himself up. He then made his way, slowly, to his room. It was last one at the end of the hall and it was the smallest one. He had a bare mattress on the floor, and light that flickered, and a stand with one drawer. He collapsed onto the mattress. Then he cried. He cried for everything that the Middle Ranks did to him tonight. They didn’t touch him, not like that, that kind of behavior was reserved for winter time. No, they touched him with fists and boots, and words. So many words. When he was done crying, Gerard pulled out his sketch book. It was the only thing that was new in the room. He found the pencil stubs that he had after Ryan broke all his pencils in half. He sharpened it carefully and then set to drawing. Gerard lost track of time when he drew. He carefully drew, shaded, and darkened his lines. At one point he looked at the cracked clock on the wall and saw that it was almost three am. He yawned and put the pencil down. Gerard crawled under the thin blanket he had and drifted off to sleep.

”Gee!”

Ray opened his eyes sharply as his Alpha bolted up in bed from a dead sleep.

”Mikey what’s wrong?”

”Gerard. I was…we were…before you…”

Ray understood. Mikey must have been rewarding Gerard for something he did right or making up for something Mikey messed up with the Omega.

”Do you think he fell asleep there?”

”No, he or mom would have called me to let me know.”

”Alright, relax, I will check. Maybe he went to his room when he saw me here.”

That was what Mikey was worried about. Gerard could have felt rejected. Thought that Ray was chosen over him. Mikey hung his head and Ray read his mind.

”Alpha, relax. We will explain everything to him. We can even invite him back to bed with us. Take care of his together.”

Mikey smiled at Ray.

”This is why you are the perfect Beta.”

Ray smiled and kissed Mikey and headed for Gerard’s bedroom.

”Gee?”

Ray knocked lightly and then opened the door. He saw the broken lamp that lit the room. Gerard was hunched in a ball and Ray knew Mikey was right. Gerard felt rejected. Ray walked over and knelt down on the mattress. He gently shook the Omega.

”Gee, Gee wake up.”

Gerard turned in his sleep and Ray slapped his hands over his mouth to quiet the cry. Gerard was a mess. His face was swollen and bruised as well as his chest.

”Those bastards.”

Ray knew what happened. Brendon and his fellow assholes jumped the poor Omega while he was walking back from his mom’s house. Mikey told Ray what happened in school today. Mikey should have known the Brendon would take his frustration out on Gerard at some point. Ray got up and went to the bathroom. He grabbed the first aid kit. Even though Gerard had cleaned himself up, he had not bandaged. Ray carefully took Gerard’s jeans off and patched his legs up. He then did the same to his chest and arms. He couldn’t do anything for his face without waking him up. He tucked the battered Omega in and was about to leave when he saw the sketch book. It was the one luxury that Mikey protected of Gerard’s. not even the Middle Ranks could touch it. He looked at what Gerard had drawn. It was a boy, maybe a student? Ray saw that Gerard was careful with the lines and getting the person’s eyes perfect as well as the shape of his face and the contrast in his hair. At the bottom for the page near Gerard’s signature was an ornate letter F. Ray slipped the book back into the drawer along with the pencils. He made a mental note to get Gerard new art supplies for Christmas.

”Where’s Gee?”

Mikey looked at Ray sleepily as Ray slipped back into the room and into the bed.

”He was too far under, so I just let him stay. You can make it up to his this weekend.”

”Okay. Oh, Friday we are having a guest for dinner.”

Ray lay down and Mikey put his head on his chest.

”The boy I told you about from school, Frank.”

”Oh, well I shall plan a great feast then.”

”Gee will help you I’m sure.”

”Of course he will, he is a good Omega and we will reward him for it.”

”Mmmm.”

Mikey drifted off to sleep and Ray wondered if the boy in the drawing with F at the bottom stood for Frank.
