Things have been strained in the Varmitech household for the last three days, and Zach was happy that Junior was an oblivious six-year-old.

Zach often avoided Chris as much as he could. He spent most of his time in his lab, coming out a few times a day to eat and make sure Junior was OK.

He was standing in the doorway of the kitchen, watching the two other occupants of the house make cookies. Junior was standing on a step stool so he could reach the top of the counter. He was covered in flour and eating the chocolate chips for the cookies when Chris wasn't looking.

Neither of them had noticed Zach yet, and they were laughing and talking. Zach moved to step into the kitchen and froze. He felt pain under his skin, and his stomach started to churn.

He ran out of the kitchen and to the downstairs bathroom. He leaned over the porcelain bowl and threw up. After emptying his stomach, Zach sat back on the floor and sighed.

He flushed the toilet and gripped the edge of the face basin, standing. He opened the medicine cabinet and washed the acidic taste out of his mouth.

He stumbled out of the room and back to the kitchen, "Chris," He called once he was there. The other man turned to look at him when he called him with a smile that turned into a frown as soon as he looked at Zach.

"Y-you need to leave," Zach stuttered out, gripping the wall.

"Are you OK? You don't look so good?" Chris asked, coming closer and making Zach take a step back.

"I... it's just my heat, you need to leave," Zach said, and Chris nodded, he left the room.

Junior came over to him, and Zach picked him up and held him close. He had explained what heat was to Junior about a year ago and why he had to always stay close to Zach during that time.

Going through heat as a rejected Omega was painful and sickening. It helped to have someone you were comfortable with around so they could soothe the pain a little.

In this case, that was Junior. Zach would cuddle him, and the scent of his son would make the pain lessen, letting him know he wasn't alone. The heat of a rejected Omega was torture if the Alpha didn't outright reject them, and they couldn't find another mate. Not that any Alpha would want him

Chris came back into the room a few minutes later, "The gang will be here in ten minutes to pick me up." He said, and Zach nodded.

"We'll be in my room," Zach said, heading out of the room.

"We?" Chris asked, "You're taking Junior?"

"Yes, he helps," Zach said, climbing the stairs.

He got to his room, locked the door, and lay on top of the covers. He pulled Junior closer, and he curled up around him. He felt Junior's small hands wrap around him and sighed. This was going to be a long heat. He was going to smell Chris everything he ventured out.
